Don't miss this competition !!

Hello dear friends

In this blog, I am going to make a competition between you guys. Hope you will like it !

   In this contest, your task is finding the word related to each picture. The picture will help and guide you to reach the answer. The point here is that the word which you will find, MUST be an English correct word and can be found in the dictionary. The other point is that the word is reconstructed with the picture's elements (such as picture's colors, numbers, verbs, objects, features, and etc), but the meaning of the final assembled word, doesn't relate to the picture. The blog is in moderated mode and you will see the answers and your score 5 days later !  ,,, Each blank has its own score, so if you know a part of the answer-word, write it. As a hint, please see the following examples: (the number in parenthesis shows the number of the word's letter)

Picture A :  _ _ _ T _ _ _ (7)

______________________________________________________________

Picture B : _ _ _ E _ _ (6)

______________________________________________________________

Answer A:

   In the first picture (example A), there is a test paper and pencil which show a TEST. Also the fire shows the hotness and therefore the answer can be hot test = HOTTEST. The word 'HOTTEST' is the superlative adjective of 'hot' and is a correct English word. As it can be seen, each part of the answer-word, exactly describes the picture or its elements. BUT the final reconstructed word's meaning is not related to the picture. 

Answer B:

   You can see a 'G' on 'N'. So we may have several choices : 'N under G' ,,, 'G on N' ,,, 'ji on en' ,,, 'ji over en' ,,, 'and G over N' ,,, but the last one means: 'G OVER N', has meaning as a word :G over N = GOVERN. Here again each part of the found-word, describes elements of the picture, but meaning of the final reconstructed word, doesn't have any relation with the picture

Here you have 14 words to find ! ,,, Start please! and enjoy the competition!

Hello again 

   After the occupation of the US espionage den (the US embassy in Tehran, 1979) by the Muslim students following the Imam Khomeini's line, the US imposed some economic sanctions on Iran, dispatched its military fleet to the Persian Gulf and utilized some Iranian mercenaries and anti-revolutionary elements in the country. But one of the important fields which provided the causes of the US invasion against Iran, was the failure of all US diplomatic efforts and designs in order to release its arrested diplomats (read spies). The US president at that time was Jimmy Carter.

   

   It is good to know that from more than 5 months before the military invasion, the US government has been preparing their commandos with complex and intensive training in Arizona desert (where is almost similar to the Iran's desert regions from the standpoint of climate). They have used the most complicated military technics from the defense and military weapons to the modern technology of warplanes. They had also dedicated an unlimited budget to this matter. The US Meteorological Organization had fully anticipated the weather conditions in Tabas desert (i.e. the desert which had been selected for performing the operation) especially in the landing area, and due to it was a moonlit night, any non-favorable weather conditions and storms hadn't predicted for that. 

   A military task force was created in cooperation with Israeli intelligence (Mossad). On November 22, 1979 at a joint meeting with Israel's defense minister, the US ambassador in Tel Aviv and military attache of the US, the details of Israel's collaboration in this operation became clear. There were about 90 commandos in that military task force. Beside this group, a bunch of Iranian former military officers (related to previous regime, before revolution) were sent to Tehran to find the exact location of the hostages. A few days later, a second group were dispatched to Tehran, to lead the night raid on the embassy in order to release the hostages. By command of a few Iranian traitor officials, 3 days left to the time of the operation, around 8 hundred 23mm anti-aircraft artilleries were gathered from the central parts of the country and sent to Tehran and some radars at the borders and central parts were turned off. 

   Due to extended training, repeated practices and simulation of the operation in different parts, the probability of victory for the United States was (predicted) more than 90%. "Eagle Claw" was the name of the operation designed by the special forces (Commandos) of America's Army called Delta Force and the operation's commander was Charlie Beckwith who was so famous in Vietnam war.

Finally, on 24th April of 1980 (a day like today), at dawn, six MC-130 and EC aircrafts and eight RH-53D helicopters, Violated the country's airspace (from the south borders) and landed in the Tabas desert (desert One).

   

   

   In spite of all predictions, while refueling, because of sand storm, a helicopter collided to the plane carrying fuel and caused a massive explosion which converted that region to the hell. 8 American were killed and the rest left 5 helicopters (and even their 8 killed solders) in the desert, quitted the mission and left the country. Imam Khomeini believed that the America's failure in the Tabas desert was the conclusive result of divine intervention and expressly declared that : "This silly maneuver, at the command of Almighty Allah, failed".

   

   Nowadays, the mentioned place in Tabas desert, has become an exhibition. Some artificial helicopters and EC-130 aircraft, have been made and put there. I took the following pictures from there about 2 months ago.

   Hello dear friends, this time I have come up with a historical blog about my dear country Iran. The blog is divided to two parts. The second part will be published tomorrow (God willing). About 10 months after the victory of Iran's Islamic Revolution (1979), a number of university students (followers of the Imam Khomeini's line), because of the large US interventions in our country and creating various conspiracies by this country, decided to occupy the the US embassy in Tehran non-armed and sit-in there for 3 days.

Fig. 1   The famous image about the US embassy occupation by some university students

   But after entering to the embassy and occupying there, they encountered to an unexpected scene !! ,,, Yes, the US embassy had become a safe den for spying. They found a secret room With a door similar to the safe's door for transmitting information. In that room, there were many advanced radio communication devices. Figure 2 shows the photos of that room which were taken in that time after occupation.

Fig. 2   The secret room in the US embassy including some advanced radio communication devices for transmitting data and information.

   In the other room, there were a strip-shredder (i.e. a device for destroying paper documents and converting them into strips) and while occupying which lasted three hours, many of the classified spying documents had been converted to millions of paper strips by the embassy staff !! ,,, Figure 3, illustrates a strip-shredder device in the former US embassy and its output !

Fig. 3   The strip-shredder used for destroying the documents in the former US embassy.


   At last the embassy was completely occupied by them and about 60 American diplomats were arrested. After that, the revolutionary students with much effort reconstructed many of the shredded documents which took several months.

Fig. 4   Reconstruction of the shredded documents by the revolutionary students.


   Then the students, translated and published those reconstructed documents in 11 volumes with the name of : "Documents from the US espionage den" (each volume contains hundreds pages). "Espionage den" was a proper name for that seemingly embassy, after obtaining those spying documents from there and Imam Khomeini interpreted this occurrence (the occupation of the US espionage den) to "Second Revolution".

Fig. 5   The reconstructed classified documents were translated to Persian and published.

   After that time until now, the US hasn't had any embassy in our country Iran. The arrested US diplomats, after 444 days were released through diplomatic solutions and returned to their country. In these 444 days, the US, two times tried to release its diplomats via military invasion ways (like their Hollywood's films!) ,,, but unlike the good results at the end of all their films they couldn't do that. My second blog on this topic, is about one of these military invasions to our country. Nowadays, the former US embassy in Tehran, has become a revolutionary museum. The following images are related to this place in current time and the last three ones were downloaded from: The Daily Telegraph

Hello dear friends

   Last night once I incredibly realized that the ♪♪Blessing♪♪'s account has been deleted from EC. Actually she was an active member of EC and had many blogs. Now it is not clear that she has deleted her account herself or the EC moderator has deleted her and why !?

   Her last blog was about 'Perverts' and I saw her last comment on her blog yesterday in which she had replied the four last unanswered comments and thanked those four commenters (including me) after a few days not being online on EC. 

   This event (to be suddenly removed from EC) is very strange for me. Does anyone know the reason !?

Thanks

Apple Poem

   Hello dear friends. In this blog, I'm going to translate two beautiful Persian poems which is written in my profile in Persian, rimed in new-style Persian poetry by two famous Iranian contemporary poets, Hamid Mosadegh (1940 -1998) and Forough Farrokhzad (1935-1967). Actually the first poem is related to H. Mosadegh, and several years later, F. Farokhzad have rimed the second one to reply to H. Mosadegh's poem !!

   You laughed at me and didn't know  ,,,  with how much fear, I stole that apple from the neighbor's garden.  ,,,  The gardener rushed after me  ,,,  [and he] saw the apple in your hand.  ,,,  Furiously looked at me.  ,,,  The bitten apple fell down on the soil from your hand  ,,,  and you went, and still  ,,,  after years in my ears slowly  ,,,  the sound of your steps repeatedly offends me  ,,,  and I am thoughtfully sunk in the thought  ,,,  that why our little garden, didn't have apple !!

Hamid Mosadegh

Later (After several years), F. Farokhzad have replied H. Mosadegh's poem with the following poem:

I laughed at you, because [ I ] knew  ,,,  with how much fear you stole the apple !  ,,,  My father rapidly ran after you  ,,,  and you didn't know that the gardener of neighboring garden  ,,,  was my old father.  ,,,  I laughed at you  ,,,   to reply your love with my laugh,  sincerely. ,,,  But the tears in your eyes  ,,,  made my hands and heart shake. ,,, The bitten apple in my hand, fell down on the soil.  ,,,  My heart said "go" !   ,,,  Because didn't want to memorize ,,, your bitter cry ,,, and I went, and still  ,,,  after years in my mind slowly ,,, your amazement and tears repeatedly offend me  ,,,  and I am thoughtfully sunk in the thought  ,,,  that what would happen if our home garden, didn't have apple !!

Forough Farokhzad

Does God Really Exist !?

   Hello dear friends, how are you doing ? Hope you all are doing well. Before reading the blog, I must mention some points :

  1. Whereas this text is long, and might cause you to be tired, I don't expect you friends to read it and comment on it. It is just for the members who like the thoughtful and theological essays.
  2. The denying comments are not welcome except the ones which have strong scientific reason(s) behind them. Also the comments must be related to the text concepts so please don't come up with a new topic in your comments.
  3. Please without completely reading and understanding the text, don't confirm that in your comments. I will ask you the reason of approving !  ;-)
  4. I have tried to express the subjects smoothly and understandable as much as possible, but perhaps some parts of that will not be understandable for someone because of some heavy philosophical concepts and also because of my lame English language !
  5. Please, please, please, do not start to read with the aim of finding a reason to deny the concepts and just read with the goal of understanding what I am trying to tell you, meaning have a positive attitude.
  6. As I'm too busy these days, maybe I reply your comments late.  

   Have you ever thought about yourselves and meanwhile encountered to some questions popped up in your mind which are :

  1. Why am I alive and why did I come to this world ?
  2. Was there any world before my current world ? ,,, If so, where did I come from ? ,,, Was I in "inexistence" before this world !? ,,, If I was nothing, how did I come here !? ,,, And who did bring me from nothing to being !? ,,, If not so, where was I ? 
  3. Is there any world after this world ? ,,, Where am I going to !?
  4.  Do "I" contain a spirit and a body or I am just a body (just a material) ? ,,, If I am just my body, why I say "my body" !!? ,,, Who is "me" that I assign the "body" to him/her !!? ,,, All of us without any doubt know that we exist (I exist, you exist ...) ,,, Also we know that all of our body cells will change with the new ones after each seven-year ,,,, Now if I do exist and if I am just my body, then "I" will change once a seven-year because my body change completely after each seven-years !!! ,,,, (of course it cannot be right because I know that I have not been changed up to now)  ,,,, Therefore "I" do contain both the body and the spirit,,,, But, who has assembled them together and made me !? ,,, Where is my spirit and why I cannot see that !? ,,, What will happen to my spirit after death !?
  5. Who is God !? ,,, Does he really exist !? ,,, Why the God must be one and infinite  !? 

   The humans always have been involved with these questions. Actually understanding our existence (knowing ourselves), helps us to find out the God existence. The God existence problem, has been always discussed as an important topic between mankind.   

   As a matter of fact, imagining the God's nature, for us human beings is impossible. reaching to the knowledge of the God nature depth, is impossible because the God's nature is infinite. As an example, the point in the mathematics is defined as dimensionless element. Also the line, plate and volume in mathematics, are defined as one, two, and three-dimension elements respectively. The less-dimension elements cannot define and understand the higher-dimension elements. That's why we humans (as a being who can just understand the physical three-dimensions material and events), cannot understand the fourth dimension. So it is obvious that we with our limited understanding cannot understand the infinite nature of God.

   For better understanding, consider a simple little ant which we have rather many information about itself and its nature and life, but can the ant also understand us (our life, our nature, our moralities, and so forth) !? ,,, Now, let's consider a more limited condition for that and assume the mentioned ant from the first, has been put in (not on) a ball which others are playing football with that. The ant just realizes that it is thrown to this side and other side of the ball without any reason.

   How can the ant (inside the ball) understand where it is !? ,,, Or what the ball is !? ,,, What is the football and its rules !? ,,, Who is Messi !?  :-) ,,, How can the ant understand what the Milky-way galaxy is !!!? ,,, How it can understand what the light is !? ,,, It was just an example and I didn't want to compare God with us (God is so great that we are not even a single-cell against him let alone the ant !!). But I just wanted to show you that if we don't realize and know a "being", it doesn't mean that the mentioned being does not exist. He (the God) exists, and he sees all of us, and he knows us better than we. In fact he is nearer to us than we are to ourselves !! 

   So our thinking, our understanding, and our recognition are limited and unable, regarding the infinite existence above us (God). It is really easy that the ant (in the ball) says that there is nowhere except here (in the ball), and my nature caused me to sit here and then there (to be throw caused by shooting the ball). The ant just understand the movement and it will become normal to it. It also cannot think about the darkness inside the ball !! ,,, because it didn't see and understand the light before, to be able to think about the lake of light !!

   But, what can we do when we are not able to understand the nature of God !? ,,, How can we understand at least the truth of his existence !? ,,, In fact although we cannot see him and understand him directly, but we can obviously see effects of the God existence, and those effects can lead us to find out the existence of God. In general, each effect has its own reason. It is a fundamental principle in Philosophy. It means that all the events and effects have their own causes and reasons. No effect is created spontaneously and all effects have their own cause (because when a thing has been created, either it has been created by itself or another one has created it. If it has been created by itself, either when it was a thing, it has created itself which is impossible or when it was nothing it has created itself, which is again impossible ! ,,, Therefore a created thing, MUST have been created by others).

   There are several ways to prove the God existence, but the simplest way, is looking at the creatures. As an instance, by looking at the order of universe, from the microscopic view to the macroscopic view, means from the electrons which circle regularly around the atom core in specific layers and orbits ,,, to the planets which circle around the sun in the solar system ,,, to the circling many systems in the milky-way galaxy and so on, we can get that this universe must have a creator, who is the greatest discipliner. Each movement is in need of a stimulus and no discipline can be been unless a discipliner creates that. Every thing without disciplining tends to the instability and turbulence. Even a small room cannot also be arranged by itself let alone the universe.

 

 Another example is looking at the human body which contains a great world of sciences. I get really surprised when I see the masterwork of creation in the human body. Even if someone says that the human body has evolved from a single-cell based on a rule over the time (which I don't believe whatsoever), I will ask who had created that single-cell and that rule !! ,,, If I throw a pen on a paper, can any painting be created !? ,,, So see, all effects have their own reasons and the creatures have a creator.

   There are many of such examples, but it needs seeing eyes. After an exactly looking and a deeply thinking, a question may pop in our mind up that "Who and how has made these great creatures  !? ",,, Finally we can realize that it couldn't be created by itself, and surely it must have a creator. It is not bad that someone has doubt in God existence, I myself also had this kinds of doubts and questions several years ago. But we should keep thinking about this matter as much as possible whereas our age is not so long.

   As a matter of fact, God is one; He is whom all depend to him; He is who has not given birth, and has not been born, and there is none comparable unto him. Seeking for God, originates from the nature of humans. Even all God-unbelievers (Atheists) naturally, believe in God !! ,,, Do you know why !? ,,, I tell you with an example: suppose an atheist is alone in a boat and has lost his way on the see. Suddenly his boat begins to sink. In this moment, when all hopes are going to be vanished, the light of a hope which is "one can help me" will not disappear. That "one" is God, but he doesn't know that. The other example is when a mother has a sick child near to death and she has been disappointed by all the experts and skillful doctors. She cannot accept and believe that there is no other way. A narrow beam of hope light has still remained in her heart that A one can save my child ! ,,, That "one" is also God, but she doesn't know  :-)

Hope this text was useful to you
Thank you all

Some points for punctilious persons


   I'm a fortune teller; I can also easily see the future of everything, meaning I'm able to foretell about any event happening. At this moment, I'm going to tell you about the future of three turtles, crossing a mountainous route ,,, turtles !? ,,, yes three turtles, if I claim that I can foretell about everything, so I must be able to see the future of animals too. Am I right !? ,,, yes you are! ,,, OK, the curiosity, fluttering through your brain, can be obviously seen in your eyes, to be conscious about their story. So,let me start to concentrate on their position.

   Okaaayyyy, nice, I can see them, in this time they are passing an insupportable racky path through the mountains. They are coming from the Black Pearl see, of the evilness territory. They have been overcome by fear also exhaustion of the path, but the hopefulness prevents them to give up. They aim to go to the Light Lake; a beautiful lake near a lush bushy jungle full of the floriferous trees. The light beams of this region like a lighthouse helps them to continue the path. To achieve the lake, they must pass the forest.

   Let's see their future. Hmmm, oh, I can see only one of them near the lake, but they are three, I think something is going to occur to them in the jungle. Let's go back to the time that they are in the forest path, Hmmm ,,, let, let, let ,,, Oh, see here, too busy, many local animals encircle a pit ,,, OMG ,,, our three turtles have fallen into a trap. They are hanging at the outfall of the pit (trap's pit) by biting a tree branch put on the pit to cover it. This trap has been put at this place by a hunter to trap the bear. Position of the first hanging turtle is better than others means he is so near to the outfall of the pit. but the nether one's (the last turtle's) position is too critical.

   The poor turtles are struggling to come out, but the other animals out of the trap, are clapping in place of helping !! As a matter of fact, they are not clapping to hope the turtles to come out, but they are clapping, also singing a song together to make them hopeless to fall into the bottom of the pit. As the first one has better position to come out comparing others, the peripheral unfair animals are singing all together:

"The first is falling",,, Clap ,,, "The first is falling",,, Clap,,, "The first is falling",,, Clap

" Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up "  !!!

   OMG, unfortunately the first turtle (the upper one) fell into the pit. The animals are clapping, they are so happily saying:

"Fell, fell, fell, fell" , "So nice he fell" , Clap , "Fell, fell, fell, fell" , "So nice he fell" , Clap  !!!

   Also they are congratulating to each other. After that again, they are going to repeat their unfair action for the next ones too ! Seems the next turtle cannot tolerate more. Oh, no, the next one also fell, but the last one is still keeping his effort stoplessly. irrespective to the animals' song, moment by moment he is nearing to the outfall of pet. the animals seems to be too angry. oh they are rising their noises, better to say they are shouting !!, poor turtle, but he is still continuing. the animals are jumping to make him fearful, but he is still continuing. OMG, OMG, OMG, he came out!, unbelievably he came out!

   See !! the timorous animals are escaping, LOL. I got the reason of his success, can you guess !? No, it is too strange ! OK, I'm going to tell you the reason. Actually he lost the ability of hearing many years ago. therefore the animals' jumping, clapping, or singing in place of making him hopeless, have put the hope in his heart. In fact the last turtle has thought that they are encouraging him by clapping or jumping !!

Please mention the psychological or moral point(s) that can be gotten from the story.

Thank you all

Welcome to the profile and comments decorating class !! (^_^)

   

   As I sometimes drop by a few members' profiles, about 95% of active EC members, have not utilized the facilities of their profiles to make their profiles better and more attractive. Only less than 1% of them, have applied HTML as a tool, to change the size, color, and font of their literature. As you know, all comments (of profiles and blogs) are written by a black simple font (Tahoma) with a fixed size. So I decided to introduce HTML as a tool which is so easy to learn, so simple to use, and so powerful to make an attractive and beautiful profile. Also it can be useful in designing websites and moderating them in desired style. In fact by this work, we want to create diversity in our comments, our profiles and all our literature. Beside beauty, it can be helpful in better learning, less being tired, better concepts conveying and so forth.

   I don't want to make you tired more and directly I'm going to start some introductions. After that you will learn a few useful and practical tricks to change the features (such as color, font, and size) of your texts via the HTML editor. HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language and it is a kind of language for describing web documents. In following figure, a visualization of an HTML page structure is illustrated. As it can be seen in this figure, the text between <body> and </body>, (the white part) describes the visible page content which you see on your browser screen. The text between <h1> and </h1> describes a heading and finally, the text between <p> and </p>, describes a paragraph. I will say my points in a so simple way and only the points related to change the text properties (such as color, font, and size), will be mentioned.  

        

   Have you ever pushed the HTML button at the top-right of your comment box ?? , actually you can use the following points wherever your comment box has HTML button. Now please copy the sentence written below and scroll down your screen to comment box and then paste it there. 

I would like to learn English.

    Now push the HTML button at the top right of your box (with light pink background color) and you may see the following sentence:

<p>I would like to learn English.</p>

   In fact, it is the simplest paragraph with its own HTML defaults (font: Tahoma, color: black, size: 10pt). From the start of the text till pressing the Enter key and going to the next line, is considered as a paragraph. <p> means the start of paragraph and </p> shows the end of it. Now please type <h1> instead of <p> at the first and </h1>, instead of </p>. Again push the HTML button and return to the visual mode. You may see the following sentence in the visual mode of the comment box:

I would like to learn English.

   Actually you have converted the sentence from a paragraph to a heading. Your sentence which you wanna change its properties, is either a paragraph or a heading. Now I am going to say that how the properties of a paragraph or heading can be changed. It is so simple and only 1, 2, 3 :) . There are several ways in HTML to do that, but here we use Inline method. In the following sentences be careful about all signs such as ("), (:), (;), or ('), even if only one of them was deleted, your desired sentences would not be appeared in the visual mode.

A.  How to Change the Text Color  

1- If you want to change the color of the whole paragraph, you must add a statement to the first tag <p>. Now please copy-paste the following sentence in the HTML editor (the HTML button is pushed down).

<p style="color: #0000ff;">I would like to learn English.</p>

Now if you push the HTML button and return to the visual mode, you will notice:

I would like to learn English.

2- If you want to change the color of a word or a sentence between the Paragraph, you should add some statements before and after that word or sentence. suppose we want to change color of "to learn" in previous sentence, then you should do like this:

<p>I would like <span style="color: #0000ff;">to learn</span> English.</p>

See, "to learn" is located between two statements, then the HTML visual output is:

I would like to learn English.

    Was it too hard !? :) of course no, it is just a piece of cake !! Different colors can be achieved by changing the Hex numbers "#0000ff" (i.e. Hex number is a number in base of 16, including 0 up to 9 and a, b, c, d, e, f). The different Hex numbers for getting different colors, would be seen in below. These numbers contain 6 hex digits. The right hand, middle, and left hand pair digits, determine the proportion of blue, green, and red colors respectively. You can make more colors by changing them. The Hex number for black color is #000000 and for white color is #ffffff. To change the color of heading, you must replace two "p" to "h1", that's all !!  

B.  How to Change the Text Font

1- Here also to change the font of the whole paragraph, a statement must be added to the first tag <p>, copy-paste this sentence to comment box in HTML editor mode:

<p style="font-family: 'times new roman';">I would like to learn English.</p>

So you will have the following output in visual mode:

I would like to learn English.

2- To change the font of a word or a sentence between the Paragraph, you should add some statements before and after that word or sentence. For example we will change the font of "to learn" in this way:

<p>I would like <span style="font-family: 'times new roman';">to learn</span> English.</p>

The visual output will be:

I would like to learn English.

   As you see, only the font of "to learn" was changed from "Tahoma" to "Times New Roman". It is just A, B, C. :) . To have other desired font, you may put the name of a desired supported standard font, instead of "times new roman". The default font is "Tahoma". Names of the fonts are the same as your blog box font names. For instance you can write: 'Andale Mono', 'Arial', 'Arial Black', 'Book Antiqua', 'Comic Sans MS', 'Courier New', 'Georgia', 'Helvetica', 'Impact', 'Tahoma', 'Terminal', 'Times New Roman', and 'Trebuchet MS'. If you want to change the heading font, you must substitute two "p" with "h1".

C.  How to Change the Font Size   

1- To change the font size of the whole paragraph, again we have another statement must be put in the first tag. If we copy-paste the following sentence to HTML editor.

<p style="font-size: 20px;">I would like to learn English.</p> 

Then its visual output is:

I would like to learn English.

2- If you want to change the font size of a word or a sentence between the paragraph, you must do like this:

<p>I would like <span style="font-size: 20px;"> to learn</span> English.</p>

The visual output is:

I would like to learn English.

   See, only the size of "to learn" has been changed. The default value of the paragraph font size is 10pt. to change the size only you should change that size value to desired size. Again here to change the font size of a heading, all "p" must be replaced with "h1". The default value of the heading font size is 20pt.

D.  How to Combine Properties

1- If we want to change several properties (like font size, font, and color) simultaneously for the whole paragraph or heading:

<p style="font-size: 20px; font-family: 'times new roman'; color: #0000ff;">I would like to learn English.</p> 

So as the result, in visual mode we have:

I would like to learn English. 

2- For a word or a sentence between the paragraph or heading:

<p>I would like <span style="font-size: 20px; font-family: 'times new roman'; color: #0000ff;">to learn</span> English.</p>

And it results in visual mode:

I would like to learn English.

   There are other properties which I will say them later (in part 2). Hope it is useful and helpful to you.

A Real Supernatural Adventure

    Hello dear friends, as I am an active member of English Club (^_^), and prefer to post at least one blog per a year, and as the current year (2015) is about to be over, I decided to write this blog.    

    I always try to be a logical and reasonable person and usually after encountering to an event or phenomenon, I used to look for its reasons. I believe that all occurrences around us, can be proved and described using the physical logic and rules. As an example, I have no fear of any sounds which might be heard in anywhere of a house in anytime (*_^). Many persons believe that, this kinda sounds are created by spirits and they are afraid of them. I have faith in that every phenomenon, sensed by our bodies' sensors, has its own physical reasons. As a matter of fact we live in a three-dimensional physical space and deal with materials, and also our sensors (related to five senses containing eyes, ears, skin, ...), can only sense the physical events.

    For better clarifying the topic, I continue with an instance. All sounds (i.e. sonar mechanical waves) are created by physical movements. A movement needs mechanical force. The magnitude and direction of the movement is associated to the magnitude and direction of the resultant of mechanical applied forces respectively. Some sudden sounds are made by expansions and contractions of substances because of changing the temperature, some of them are made due to permanent vibration of air molecules, like the sound of striking two washed cups, in the kitchen cupboard, which can be caused by permanent vibration of the air, due to tremble of refrigerator or cooler motor. Thus a result can be concluded that the origin of all sounds around us are physical (physical reasons).

    The ambiguities arise from unknowns or in the other word, they are results of the physical rules which have not been discovered yet. This part is considered as Supernatural. I always have some physical reasons to prove or describe all the occurrences took places near me. BUT, but, but,,, the only and only event occurred to me in my life, which I could never describe that with physical rules, (O_o) is mentioned in the following.

    This adventure goes back to several years ago, when I was 8 or 9 years old. At an autumn evening, when I came back home from school, my uncle called and asked me to go to their house. In fact they (my uncle and his family) were our neighbor. When I went there, I saw some persons of our family and some neighbors had gathered there. They didn't tell me directly but I caught from their speech that in that night, my uncle had invited one of his friends who claimed to be able to summon the dead person's spirit !! and they wanted to summon my grandmother spirit. she (my grandma) was so nice lady and had died several years earlier. Firstly I must let you know that I'm completely disagreed with this action and recommend all not to dare that. But on that time I was just a child, and my uncle also wasn't aware about that.   

    No one of them believed that it might be possible. Anyway my uncle's friend came and after greeting, he spread a quadrilateral cardboard which was his tool in order to summon spirits (Hooooo, :D , don't scare dear reader). That plate was like the Ouija board (i.e. lettered board which allegedly spells out answers to questions through supernatural contact with spirits) which I have put its image here.

    But mentioned plate had some differences with the board seen in the picture. That plate, had about 50 circles. Diameter of the circles was the same as the diameter of the outer circular edge of a cup. In each circle a Persian letter had been written and after them, in some of circles a number and in remaining some words (in Persian) such as Yes, No, Hello, Bye, ... had been written. My uncle's friend, wanted a cup and put it upside down on the plate. After that he said: "Three children, come here and put their index finger on the bottom of cup without any force",,, that's why my uncle had wanted me to go there. My neighbor's girls (with the ages same as me) and I accepted that dangerous task :D . He read something slowly and after a few minutes said: "now she is here !!, you may ask her what you want !!" ,,, Then all the persons were waiting to see what would be happened.

    If I don't mistake, the first question they asked her was: "In which year you have died ?", that's because my uncle's friend didn't know that year and they wanted to test him firstly somehow. After asking, OMG, Unbelievably The cup moved under our fingers !! It moved to circles of numbers and for example, it slid respectively to 1, 9, 8, and at the end 5, which means 1985 and it was right !! While asking the questions and her replying, we children were laughing because we didn't understand what we did, and it was so funny for us, suddenly the cup was stopped. He told us: "Don't laugh, she may get sad and go", then we tried to control ourselves which was so hard :D . The other questions were asked one by one and the answers were reasonable.         

    See dear friends, sometimes you hear some supernatural stories, it is never comparable with when you see a supernatural event by your eyes and I saw it with my eyes. Anyway, the event was forgotten with the passage of time and it left many unanswered questions in my mind for ever. The main questions are: 1- Why was the cup moved ?? ,,, 2- Who was pushing or pulling the cup (the spirit of my grandma or my uncle's friend) ?? ,,, 3- Why must some persons put their index finger on the bottom of the cup ?? ,,, 4- Why those persons must be three children ?? , in fact these are not kidding, we must think about them. But I think the power supply of those movements were our (we three children) muscles and not else. because someone must put their fingers on the cup, and it didn't have any motion without putting fingers. So this result can be gotten that one of them, the spirit or my uncle's friend was influencing on one the parts of our brain related to the motor unit. I have many thing to say, but I don't wanna continue. I always recommend members to write short blogs, but here as you see...  :D

    At the end, I would like to thank you all for reading this boring blog. Now please if you have any idea about the mentioned event or if you have any experience, Share it with us.

Thank you all

One of the questions that might be asked in a typical teachers employment interview, is expressed as following:

Suppose that you are a teacher and you enter your classroom which you wanna teach, then when you want to start, all the students mock and sneer you in this way that when you turn your head they turn their heads simultaneously or when you rise your hand, they do the similar action all together. In this time you advise them but they rudely ignore you and continue their behavior.

In this position what would you do?

My answer : If I was in this situation, after talking to them and to be ignored by them, I would kick out only the first row of students and continue my teaching !!  : )

My reason : In fact they have gotten allied together and we should break their alliance. Prejudice and injustice are two points which plays the main role in breaking their alliance, and kicking out the first row of student, could motivate the outer students to expose the students total plan and provoke them against inner ones. 

What would you do if you were in that situation ??
