Then the conversation strayed to what I had noticed while reading the posts in Google Reader (what is referred to as Gooder by Iranian bloggers) that the people in our circle of friends (most of them virtual friends) who are currently living in Iran usually share. So, this is a group of people who religiously read every single post shared until they have “zero unread posts” and who know each other actually or virtually and sometimes leave personal comments for each other, which shows how secured they feel about the whole Gooder space. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Reading their shared posts I have found a very similar theme. Nostalgia! And about what? The 80's! Yes, the war time in Iran. But, why should someone feel nostalgic about the 80's? And I have to add here that this is the war generation we are talking about, the generation who spent its childhood in the 80's.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;"&gt;I was watching Van Trier's "Europa" the other day. It's about war-beaten Germany of 1945. A very dark movie that animates the complexity of the traumatized people of once a great nation, through an extremely dramatized love story. There was a line in the movie that is permanently marked in my mind. One of the characters of the movie says "During the war everything was simple and straightforward. It's after the war that the complexities grew in everyday life", and I am paraphrasing here. I thought about it and found it very true about the Iranian society. We lived a very simple life during the war time. A simple life of no luxury; where every family was depended on the subsidies and the "coupons" the government provided. The main concern was to make the two ends meet. There was no sense of competitiveness to achieve more in life. Because there was no "more" to it! And hey, life was tough alright; we were in one of the most brutal wars of after WWII world for god's sake. The &lt;i&gt;lifestyle&lt;/i&gt; was simple. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;For the kids like us, who were fed mainly by the two state TV channels, every single program on TV (and there was only a very limited number of them) had to be chewed upon in the greediest of manners. We had no other choice, we had to watch any single program tens of times. And that was the main in a few sources of imaginary world we had access to. The lives of the characters of the animated series, the children seeking for their parents, the lives of the castaway families; and those bitter Japanese series originally made for grown-ups; but there were no kid not watching them every week, religiously.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;After the war, construction of the nation started. Iran is a rich country if she doesn't have to spend her resources to expense a destructive war. So, people's lives changed quickly. And people got back to their lush habits of living, denying all the bad memories of the war as if it never happened. Then it came the era of Khatami and the reformists. The reform that brought hope to people's eyes and changed their prospective overnight. They wanted khatami to overthrow the supreme leader based on the popular votes they'd given him. Khatami said “hey we are still an islamic republic, people! I can't fight with the Sepah and all that! Let's go on our slow but steady reform, that’s the only way.” &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f6b26b;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;This time life was no simple. People had access to satellite TVs and the internet. They wanted freedom in its most European forms. They did not want religious democracy as Khatami had proposed. They wanted secular democracy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;Khatami's term was finishing when the reformist proposed Moein for presidency. People were disappointed at them though. They rationalized that they had had the worst. What could be worse than that. Khatami and reformists were puppets in the hands of the Supreme leader and the conservatives, they did not do anything. Most of them decided not to vote at all. And this was how Ahmadinejad came to power. People experienced days of each being worse than the previous. They dreamed about days of Khatami. They understood the difference it made to have the nation be run by the reformists or fundamentalists (not even conservatives). And it came the time to vote again. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Mousavi ignited the enthusiasm in the depressed, disappointed hearts of Iranians again like never before. This time people knew by heart that they wanted reform and they wanted it then. They knew how mistaken they were not voting for reformists the previous election. They went to the polls and voted for Mousavi, the majority of them, to make a landslide. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Do they let people gain what they had given them for the last 4 years back? The answer is no. They wanted it and they wanted it entirely. They could not afford another reformist in power. No, they wouldn't let go of the power. They would do anything this time. They wouldn't care even keeping up appearances. They would kill if it would necessitate. And they did; not by a few number: they killed tens if not hundreds. They arrested hundreds if not thousands. They buried the dead in unknown graves, they brutalized and tortured the arrested. They tried the heads of the reformist party. They beat, terrorized, and isolated reformists’ main three leaders which they did not dare arresting (and that was the only red line they did not cross). They shut down the websites. They blocked the news circulation. And there came the Google reader. The fastest, easiest, and safest way to circulate the news without being censored. And there came the generation of Gooder. The war generation with all its shattered hopes and dreams. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 18.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f6b26b; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;With its Nostalgia of the 80's.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-6357886856500843530?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/6357886856500843530/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=6357886856500843530&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/6357886856500843530'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/6357886856500843530'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2010/09/nostalgia.html' title='Nostalgia'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-6750086098336049533</id><published>2009-06-29T21:55:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2009-06-29T22:00:30.367-06:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SkmNrpklDGI/AAAAAAAAAG4/FOXomxAEFv4/s1600-h/mousavi_01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 211px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SkmNrpklDGI/AAAAAAAAAG4/FOXomxAEFv4/s320/mousavi_01.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352965413139713122" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mousavi the leader of the Green Movement of Iran.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-6750086098336049533?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/6750086098336049533/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=6750086098336049533&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/6750086098336049533'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/6750086098336049533'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2009/06/mousavi-leader-of-green-movement-of.html' title=''/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SkmNrpklDGI/AAAAAAAAAG4/FOXomxAEFv4/s72-c/mousavi_01.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-2478521924757491753</id><published>2009-06-06T21:44:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2009-06-06T22:05:05.782-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mobile posts'/><title type='text'>camping</title><content type='html'>I'm in one of the most beautiful places on earth.

It starts in a very stunning way so that you think you're watching the best thriller ever. The visual effects is just astonishing. As the story goes on you become more and more disappointed. At the end you have this feeling that the hole plot is written by a child who's parents has told her some stories from the bible, something like stories of Adam and Eve and the Armageddon, and she mixed these stories with the stories of aliens and UFOs she heard at school... The first 2/3 of the movie is worth watching, but the rest is a huge disappointment. Honestly though, it is like giving this simple mindedly written plot to the best film making crew.&lt;br /&gt;I bet the plot has been written with the church approval.

The movie is made black and white in 1953 and is one of the director's favorites and is really worth watching. Ingmar Bergman has never disappointed me, and I am still eager to watch more and more of his movies. He was a very busy director and is going to keep me amazed by his picture for years to come. I have "Crisis" and "Persona" in my list. I'm going to watch the former tonight actually.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-3505836804907737825?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0045848/' title='Bergman&apos;s Sawdust and Tinsel'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/3505836804907737825/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=3505836804907737825&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/3505836804907737825'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/3505836804907737825'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2009/03/bergmans-sawdust-and-tinsel.html' title='Bergman&apos;s Sawdust and Tinsel'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-3676868648482626342</id><published>2009-02-24T13:26:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2009-02-24T13:49:24.716-07:00</updated><title type='text'>We're All Gonna Die</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A friend of mine sent &lt;a href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/we_are_all_gonna_die/slider.html"&gt;this &lt;/a&gt;link while I was at work today. So, I opened it and I looked at it and I just tried to find something funny in the extremely wide photo (which is actually a combination of 20 shots) to share with my friend - for instance I found a dude showing his middle finger to the cameraman- But when I saw the title of the work "We're All Gonna Die, 100 meters of existence" everything in the photo looked differently. The dude with middle finger was not funny anymore. At a sudden, every single person in the photo gave a new dimension to the photograph. Suddenly everything in the photo was deep in meaning.&lt;br /&gt;And it made me think about life. As long as you live your everyday life, everything is ordinary and superficial and lacks meaning. But when you think about the fact that We're All Gonna Die, you &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;live &lt;/span&gt;your moment. That is how so many art and literature masterpieces are created.

The second guest who was actually my whole reason of watching the show on TV (intead of o watching the podcast on &lt;a href="http://www.getmiro.com/"&gt;Miro&lt;/a&gt;, as ususal) was &lt;a href="http://www.chriscornell.com/"&gt;Chris Cornell&lt;/a&gt;, My favorite rock singer, introducing his new album "scream"; which oddly enough has recorded with the hip-hop singer Timberland.It's coming in March.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;So if you do not have access to the CBC television, download Miro which is an open source video software and subscribe to The Hour or your other favorite shows. it's fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-4273306342188583394?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.cbc.ca/thehour/' title='The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/4273306342188583394/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=4273306342188583394&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/4273306342188583394'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/4273306342188583394'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2009/02/hour-with-george-stroumboulopoulos.html' title='The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-1855022535838181764</id><published>2009-02-22T23:38:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2009-02-23T00:47:02.469-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I am back!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: lucida grande;"&gt;It might have happened to you. Suddenly, with no reason, you find yourself unable to create, if you are an artist, to write, if you are a writer, or simply to post if you are a blogger. It happened to me almost 2 years ago. During this time, I could never explain why I did not feel like writing. Now when I look back, I have this feeling that, at some point, my soul started a journey. A journey to find some new meaning to life, some lost ingredients to soul, to find something that I think was "me".&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: lucida grande;"&gt;It was like moulting. I started changing my skin; and that was my personality, my reaction to the outside world, my perception of external world. And what is this external world? Not only people and things around me, but also the definitions I have in mind from the values, the morality and from concepts such as loneliness, love, commitment, faith. I have not found all my answers yet -and I will be the happiest person ever if I ever do- but at least I know what I am looking for.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: lucida grande;"&gt;Now I can feel the changes happening inside me. I can see the new skin forming and shaping my soul. I feel like the eyes watching "me" from above. I see his highs and lows. Sometimes I enjoy the show, sometimes not. Sometimes this "me" surprises me! By showing silly reactions to the inputs! And he cannot help it. Sometimes, he becomes happy from very simple things. Sometimes he gets angry from so superficial things that could make him think less of people who care about them. But these strange experiences happens only once. He learns his lessons fast. At night he is confused, in the morning the confusion is gone and again he finds himself in peace with the world. At night he is angry, in the morning he finds it funny how easily he got angry about nothing. At night he thinks he is surrounded by stupid people, in the morning he finds himself one of them. And the list goes on and on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: lucida grande;"&gt;I am back.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-1855022535838181764?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/1855022535838181764/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=1855022535838181764&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/1855022535838181764'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/1855022535838181764'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2009/02/i-am-back.html' title='I am back!'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-3179481855542865646</id><published>2007-04-20T10:13:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2007-04-20T10:24:51.132-06:00</updated><title type='text'>The world is upside down!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;"It's a tragic incident. But to find out that he is a Korean, I am ashamed and confused." You may hear that from any Korean these days. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;There are many instances of crime and violence in the &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;United States&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; everyday. Some of them are committed by immigrants or resident aliens and green card holders of any nationality. However, it is nature of &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;When you live in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;, you are under control of American culture and American media. You are Korean or Chinese or whatever, but you are more American. As a permanent resident, it is the States government responsibility to provide you with social security. The government is responsible to determine if you are eligible for a gun or not. He is responsible to diagnose your mental illness. And when he fails to do so, he should be ashamed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;It is foolish. Whenever such a crap happens in the states and it turns out that the criminal was originally from another country, concerns rise about immigrants and resident aliens. They generalize it to all foreigners. The American media has induced this perception that the national security is under threat. Everybody in any part of the world is alarmed for America's national security! It is a nightmare for any prime minister from any country that when in the next morning he reads the title in the first page of the local newspaper that “the gunman identified as ...” he finds his country name there. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;The gunman of &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Virginia&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:State&gt; tech was suffering seriously from mental illness. But instead of diagnosing his illness and protecting him, &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; gave him a gun “legally”. &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; is to blame. America should apologize to Korea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-3179481855542865646?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/3179481855542865646/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=3179481855542865646&amp;isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/3179481855542865646'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/3179481855542865646'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2007/04/world-is-upside-down.html' title='The world is upside down!'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-162854499627204930</id><published>2007-04-18T10:49:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2007-04-18T11:03:22.749-06:00</updated><title type='text'>VTech tragedy</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;There has been reports by the press that the gunman had put an alarm note on a website (&lt;a href="http://community.livejournal.com/4chan/884454.html"&gt;4Chen&lt;/a&gt;) were people can share their thoughts or files anonymously saying “I am gonna kill people in &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Virginia&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:State&gt; tech today” signed under “hey /b/”.

A little guy with goaty beard studying PhD. One of those guys who left his country and beloved ones to make a better future for himself and his later children. He was a cool guy; although I had sensed some strange things about him. I knew he had some problems with the new atmosphere here. Recently, I heard he is so sick of this entire PhD thing that decided to get out of here and get back home. He said he was not home sick, just tired of studying and doing stupid assignments and stuff, and that he could not concentrate very well on his studies. We tried to convince him to stay here, and that everything is gonna be alright. He would not listen to you; he might suddenly start telling a joke or just laughing out loud with no good reason! But all these just added to my fondness toward him. I did not have the chance to get to know him better. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now, I’m sitting here in my room, safe and sound, listening to the Bach’s music, the window is open, fresh air comes in, and I feel so alive! But just 3 blocks away, in the university hospital, this new friend of mine is struggling with a nasty brain tumor. They may have to do the operation on his brain any minute… Nobody knows how he’ll be the next week! His family is in a mental fog of questions and concerns. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When I visited him early this morning, he was still laughing; but not if they had not injected some morphine to relieve his pain. The only thing he said he was concerned of, was his family and all. He was so strong though. He had no fear.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Just 2 hours ago I was there again. He was not conscious. They had done this MRI thing on his brain. It seems that the tumor is in his frontal lobe of brain. The doctor said the tumor is so big that if they could not relive the pressure inside his skull, they would have to do the operation tonight.

I don't know, he was a human being after all! Maybe it is true that he told stories to his children, but don't forget that his sons became two monsters who wasted the money of Iraqi people and cause them suffering and pain. Who knows? Maybe by his stories he sowed the seeds of wrath and hatred and brutality in hearts of his children. And I remind you of last phrases of this nice gentleman before hanging which were full of passionate racial hatred of the human being.&lt;br /&gt;You said he fed birds? Really? My ass!! I don't know why some of these soft-hearted critters who want to spread happiness and justice, starts from worst cases! There are millions of evidences of his brutality, thousands of people whose lives are filled with pain, children infected by chemical weapons and poison gas in "Halabja" who have to suffer from their birth to their painful deaths as a punishment of being "Kurd"! And you still try to shed light to his "gentler" side?  Where were you when millions of people in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Iran&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; and &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Iraq&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; were suffering under his tyranny?

I really tried to be kind to "the mankind"! Sometimes in a sunny day, I expected that a cloud would protect me off the sun as a gift of my being so nice to the human being, from heavens!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"&gt;2- The first time I fell in a "schoolboy kind of  love" I was 15. I used to write her initial (R) -sometimes with arrow- in beautiful shapes almost everywhere. No one ever realized that I "so loved" R.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;3- Once, when I was a bachelor's student, my mean friends in the dorm lied about my girlfriend like: "H" called and said my girlfriend was at his house for studying chemistry and she was wearing a very sexy top! It freaked me out!! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;4- In my bachelor's program, I fell 21 credits in only 2 terms! No one in my family ever realized that shit.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;5- I am very proud to announce my little brother as the most amusing and inspiring person I have ever met in my life.

It seems that when the postman came, I didn't realize! Any way, I check the working hours of the post office on the net to make sure it works on Saturdays. I walk to the post office, and it is like 30 minutes walk in -20 degrees weather! I am freezing! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I’m at the post office; I have to stand in line for a couple of minutes, hypothesizing about what the parcel can be. It is strange. The only thing I'm expecting these days is the police certificate from &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Ottawa&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;, what cannot be a parcel and they could leave it in the mailbox! Let’s wait and see. It’s my turn. “Could you give me a piece of ID?” the woman says. And here’s my parcel! It’s bigger than what I expected. I am confused! Let’s see who has sent it. Nothing! No name, no familiar address. Oh, it’s here on the label is written “hat and scarf”. Now my guess is that my father has sent it from his office. I’m pretty sure now; and the address is unfamiliar cause I don’t know where his new office is. I grab the parcel heading my office. I have to do some experiments in the lab today. Again I’m freezing; and although I know there is something very handy in the parcel, I don’t want to open it now, adding to my surprise! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am in my office, taking off my coat and preparing myself for the moment. Let’s open it. A hat and a scarf, a coarse-grained weave, wooly, grayish. Man, it’s beautiful. Ok, let’s examine it. The first thing crosses my mind is to smell it. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Oh boy! It is killing me! It brings all those glorious moments to my mind. Now, it’s something very special. I have lived with this smell. It has crossed continents and oceans to bring me a smell of those great days I’ve had with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the way back home, it is even colder, but who cares! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-116454649434740768?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/116454649434740768/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=116454649434740768&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/116454649434740768'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/116454649434740768'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2006/11/special-gift.html' title='A special gift!'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-116431268462210017</id><published>2006-11-23T12:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-11-26T06:14:48.643-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Here's your Patriot Act, here's your fucking abuse of power</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;I just watched the shocking video of the poor Iranian-American student who was attacked by Taser guns of American police at the computer lab in UCLA. In a random check, police asks for his ID, he doesn’t reveal any identity, the police goes out and gets back again asking him to leave. When he’s leaving the lab, an officer approaches him grabbing his arm , the student yells: “Get off me”, at this point another officer approaches, he is repeating “Get off me!” when the second officer shot him with a Taser gun and makes him cry out in pain and fall. This time the student is like &lt;span class="normal"&gt;"Here's your Patriot Act, here's your fucking abuse of power"&lt;/span&gt;. Man I liked his line!! The student is all screaming afterwards and the police keep shooting him with those nasty guns. The police is all like “stop fighting us” and “stand up” and the student is all screaming “I’m not fighting you” while he resists standing up. It seems that the gunshot has made him handicapped. The police have threatened the bystanders; they don’t dare to approach! The incident is disgusting. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Oh it seems that they are launching an &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBzhbn8IEPU"&gt;independent investigation&lt;/a&gt; after a protest in UCLA campus. The racist american police is fucking drunk with superpower, and is obviously abusing it. Disgusting!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;There's a whole cover of the incident in &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/"&gt;www.youtube.com&lt;/a&gt; , you can find latest movies from UCLA's mess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Boy I am happy I am studying in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Canada&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;.

Man it was crazy; it was unbelievably crude and surprisingly comedy! Despite all offensive scenes (yes offensive, I unconsciously covered my face with both hands on some scenes), you can not stop laughing for the whole 84 minutes! I knew Borat, but I couldn’t figure out how crude it could be. But you should confess that this Baron Cohen is a hilarious comedian. Sometimes you forget that he’s just an actor, especially when most of the characters in the movie don’t have the slightest idea that he’s an actor! It’s more like a hidden camera show in these scenes. But, it’s a bit hard to believe that it was the best seller in the box office this and last week, and is rated 8.5 in IMDB!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: left;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Next mission is either The Departed or The Prestige.

The other guys went for the Grotto summit. We went back to the hostle at 10:30 (it was just a little hiking through the woods). I loved it; the great view, colors, snow and sun at the same time; how can heaven be more beautiful I imagined.&lt;br /&gt;I'm in the lounge. Everybody's from hiking group is sleeping here, except me and Mike, a nice friend of mine. The lounge is very beautiful with a great view of rockies, sun and the blue sky!&lt;br /&gt;We'll get back to Edmonton at about 5:30.

I was talking to Fewena from the Jupiter. She says The Jackass want to install an air-conditioner on the sun and build his HQ there! This guy is officially a crazy. He says the Mars should be wiped off the universe! He charges the guerrillas on the Uranus to loot our properties there! We use the Uranus as our warehouse. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Humina! my poor cosine; he was there last week! He used to collect emeralds from all around the solar system! He was only 347 years old and had plans to get married with Skewna the daughter of Maosta head of Tharsis region. Were they immortal lovers! We found her body in the valley of Valles Marineris in an emerald field, where her roboslave was covering her body with emeralds, now radiating a strange red light! I could not stop crying. Again I shed green tears.&lt;br /&gt;The first time I shed those mysterious tears, was at my father’s funeral. I cried from 25:341 in the morning to 64:235 at night! My eyes were all green; I could hardly see the red fog of solar radiation in the horizon! It was there that I swore that I take revenge on the jackass. Then I took the XC00 and go for a ride with Looliak, my witty sweet girlfriend. It’s a pity that she’s going to the Uranus to complete her studies on warehousing… or maybe on no-warehousing!&lt;br /&gt;I am working on a new spacecraft. It is totally different from the XC00. We actually made it for our holidays riding when we used to go to Saturn. I had designed a sound system on XC00. We rocked the universe. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fewena promised to provide us with solar-shields, grey-fart bombs and inter-galaxy ballistics. Yeah, we are getting ready. Jupiter aliens fart in grey when they eat some kind of potato grows on one of the Galilean satellites: Ganymede and this is the largest moon in the solar system- even larger than Mercury (In the mediaeval age, Mercury aliens once tried to destroy it with nuclear attack. But as their spacecraft was built and used in the high temperature of mercury (467 degrees Celsius), they became brittle in the cold weather of Ganymede and could easily be broken. They lost the war! Some survivors settled down in Callisto, the other satellite of Jupiter).&lt;br /&gt;They manufacture some kinda bombs with their grey farts. When explode, a grey-fart bomb provides a stinky cloud! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked her for some of those cookies her grandma cooks. Once you try it, you will fart in blue unconsciously for a few couple of days, 68/7! You become actually handicapped for the next few days, as you can not see anything in that blue cloud you made, and can not hear anything else but the sound of your own nonstop blasts of fart! First time I had eaten one of those cookies, a Meteoroid big enough to make a marsquack of 6 on the Richter scale fell into our marsberry field and I did not feel anything until I got rid of those farts! Even my mother thought that it was me!! Although we can not digest it well, Jupiter guys love it. They have a different digestive system, and that’s because those mushrooms only grow on the Jupiter. Over ages, it has strengthened their digestion. Anyway, I never told Fewena the truth about those cookies, she thinks I really love them! But I use them as a weapon against the jackass! His people got a poor digestion. They may even die of those grandma cookies!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The plan is that our spy in their army, Felander, should spread the cookies in their independence day celebration; once the cookies affect, we start our attack with grey-fart bombs which will be attached on inter-galaxy ballistic heads, we should lunch them 34 days in advance; they will arrive the HQ on time. There will be no guard!&lt;br /&gt;The Jackass men will face their destiny soon…&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9694724-114961892780252140?l=shalchi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/feeds/114961892780252140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9694724&amp;postID=114961892780252140&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/114961892780252140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9694724/posts/default/114961892780252140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shalchi.blogspot.com/2006/06/fourth-rock-from-sun.html' title='THE FOURTH ROCK FROM THE SUN'/><author><name>Babak</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02394484315396891800</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_77LOaAt95CQ/SbITDrEvr4I/AAAAAAAAAFA/xef_ui3J5Gs/S220/Me.bmp'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9694724.post-114191313956917992</id><published>2006-03-09T06:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-03-09T07:07:31.473-07:00</updated><title type='text'>YES HE'S BACK</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="left"&gt;He said he was calling by cell phone walking through Abbasabad!! I couldn’t believe that he’s back here!&lt;br /&gt;I met him the same day in Haftetir sq., where he was sitting on a bench casting those quick curious looks around, typical of him. That was not so hard to recognize him with those big Nike shoes and baggy pants. I knew that in each of the one hundred pockets he kept a part of his money!&lt;br /&gt;He’s changed a lot in these 2 years, less hair; he’s started to get a few grey hairs. But the same funny sharp boy I knew, he’s what he is and what used to be; doesn’t play a role, doesn’t pretend to be anything else, doesn’t wish to be someone else, doesn’t regret for being what he’s been or what he hasn’t been. The same boy with the same indiscreet sense of humor, he can make us laugh out load, still can impress us.&lt;br /&gt;Having obtained his MS in nanotech, he’s back to work and gain “the money”; a big deal of money as he says, it makes you laugh; the wrong place at the wrong time!&lt;br /&gt;I understand the pleasure he feels when we are sitting in Pishkhan waiting for our sandwiches and pizzas, while laughing silly to his stories of cheating with Indians and using a wireless lap-top connection during the exam and googling the answers; the moments he couldn’t have experienced in last 2 years.&lt;br /&gt;He came and brought me the sensation of those happy days. Those enjoying classes, the billiards, the walks in the engineering school corridor while reciting Eminem songs together; the guitar songs, talking about girls, that photo in the Math class with him showing his naked chest and big belly and I showing my middle finger in it while the professor was teaching (and we were following the lesson though), and all…&lt;br /&gt;Now he has grey hairs. Tired of hard lonely days, came here to breathe the air he’s grown up with. He’s come back but at the wrong time, when we all have made up our minds to leave… God bless him!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>چو ایران نباشد تن من مباد</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;چند شب پیش یه &lt;a href="http://www.arte-tv.com/"&gt;کانال فرانسوی&lt;/a&gt; فیلم مستندی رو نشون داد در مورد کشفیات جدید باستان‌شناسی که می‌تونه انقلابی رو در یافته‌های تاریخ بشریت به پا کنه! ماجرا از این قرار بود که مردم بومی روستاهای اطراف &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiroft_Kingdom"&gt;جیرفت&lt;/a&gt; متوجه محل‌هایی می‌شن که خیلی راحت با یک مقدار حفر زمین می‌شه یک شی‌ء تاریخی، مثلاً یک ظرف سفالین یا یک شی‌ء زینتی تاریخی و با ارزش به دست آورد. تا سازمان خنگ میراث فرهنگی دوزاریش بیافته و از منطقه حفاظت کنه، کلی از اطلاعات باستان‌شناسی با ارزش از بین می‌ره‌! اما خوشبختانه، بالاخره یه تیم اکتشاف قوی به سرپرستی یک پرفسور ایرانی (پرفسور یوسف مجیدزاده) و چند کارشناس زبده امریکایی و اروپایی تشکیل می‌شه و کار اکتشاف با سرعت خیلی خوبی شروع می‌شه. تا این تاریخ فکر می‌کنم نزدیک سه سال از شروع حفاری‌های رسمی گذشته باشه. در ابتدا تیم کاوش حدس می‌زد این بقایای شهری باشه که سومری‌ها توی کتیبه‌هاشون از اون به عنوان آراتا، شهر گمشده ای که با اون مبادلات بازرگانی داشتن، نام برده‌اند. این فرضیه وقتی قوت می‌گیره که تکه سفالی هنگام حفاری تپه باستانی (یک هرم مربع‌القاعده به قاعده دویست متر که فوق‌العاده باشکوه و احتمالا مقر پادشاهی بوده)، کشف می‌شه و وقتی سرپرست تیم اون رو با هیجان به خانم امریکایی همکار، که متخصص خطوط باستانی بین‌النهرین بوده نشون می‌ده، کلمه‌ی شگفت‌انگیز آراتا خونده می‌شه و این اوج اکتشافاته! به این ترتیب این فرضیه کاملاً قوت می‌گیره که آراتا، در نزدیکی جیرفت حدود ده هزار سال پیش به‌وجود اومده، و تمدن‌های بین‌النهرین، هند، ماوراءالنهر و خلاصه اولین تمدن‌های بشری همگی از آراتا نشات گرفتن. بنابراین، مبدا تاریخ، یعنی &lt;a href="http://www.iranian.ws/iran_news/publish/article_12225.shtml"&gt;پیدایش خط&lt;/a&gt;، پنج هزار سال پیش در نه بین‌النهرین، که آراتا &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4721/717/1600/jiroft-stolen01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4721/717/320/jiroft-stolen01.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;نزدیک جیرفت امروزی واقع در ایران اتفاق افتاده! این &lt;a href="http://www.iranian.ws/iran_news/uploads/jiroft_artifact-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;یعنی انقلابی در تاریخ&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;اشیای به دست اومده از این اکتشافات قدمتی مشابه اشیای به دست اومده از بین‌النهرین دارن و از نظر نظر اصالت و مخصوصاً ارزش هنری کاملا برتر از اونها هستن. طرح‌هایی که روی سفال‌ها، مهرها، و اشیای زینتی به دست اومده دیده می‌شن از نظر خلاقیت و مهارت هنری فوق‌العاده حیرت انگیزن. من وقتی تصاویرشون رو می‌دیدم از شدت هیجان و شاید حتی غرور و تحسین، بدنم می‌لرزید!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;حیف این جا مجال این نیست که من از بزرگی چیزی که دیدم بیش از این بنویسم! بعد از دیدن فیلم از شدت هیجان می‌خواستم فریاد بزنم&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;. احساس می‌کنم این ظلمه که همه‌ی ما از غنای فرهنگ و تاریخمون غافلیم. این ظلمیه که دارن به پیشینه فرهنگی و تاریخی و هنری ایران روا میدارن. می‌خوان ایرانی بودن رو از ما بگیرن. می‌خوان با مظاهر تاریخ و فرهنگ ما مقابله کنن و این پروسه‌ی آرومیه که داره هویتمون رو ازمون می‌گیره! ناموس ملی ما تاریخ و فرهنگ ماست، نه انرژی اتمی. پیشرفت علمی چه مایه‌ی افتخار برای ایرانیه وقتی هویتش رو دارن ازش می‌گیرن؟ اون وقت وقتی فلان مجسمه یا فلان عنصر تاریخی رو از مرز قاچاق می‌کنن کسی ککش هم نمی‌گزه! حالا اگه بگی انرژی اتمی ارزش این رو نداره که ملت ایران به خاطرش توی دنیا خوار و خفیف بشه، که نتونه سرش رو بالا بگیره، بهش انگ میزنن که ای مزدور اجنبی!، ای امریکایی!، ای همساز انگلیس!، ای غافل از منافع ملی! انرژی اتمی حق ملی ما ایرانی هاست! آخه این ایرانی‌ها کین؟ وقتی ندونی ایران چیه و ایران چی بوده و اجدادت کیا بودن و چی بهشون رفته، این حرف اصلاً چه معنی داره؟ برای چی میجنگین؟ می‌خواین از کیان ملی و عزت و شرف ایرانی دفاع کنین؟ بهتر نیست اول بیاین به ایرانی فرهنگ بدین، اون رو از پیشینه تاریخیش آگاه کنین؟ بهتر نیست به همه بگین که وقتی تو اروپا وحشی‌گری رواج داشت، کوروش ما داعیه دفاع از حقوق بشر داشت؟ بهتر نیست که بگین این آزادی عقيده و مذهب رو که این قدر بهش می‌نازین رو ما قرن‌ها پیش تجربه کردیم؟ اون وقت فکر می‌کنین یک ایرانی آگاه از پیشینه وپیشینیانش، بیدیه که به بادی بلرزه؟ فکر می‌کنین این آمریکایی‌های بی فرهنگ جرات کنن ازمون انگشت نگاری کنن و مارو به این خواری بکشن که واسه ویزاشون آواره این سفارت و اون سفارت شیم؟ فکر می‌کنین کسی جرات داره بهمون بگه شما لیاقت انرژی اتمی رو ندارین و جامعه جهانی دلیلی نمی‌بینه به شما اعتماد کنه؟ فکر می‌کنین کسی جرات داشته باشه ما رو با تحریم شورای امنیت تهدید کنه؟ فکر می‌کنین هیچ کشوری جرات داشته باشه ملت ایران رو تهدید به محرومیت از جام جهانی فوتبال بکنه؟ ما به خفت کشیده شدیم! خوار شدیم! آواره شدیم! فراری شدیم! تو اتاق‌های چت خودمون رو آمریکایی جا می‌زنیم چون اگه بگیم ایرانی هستیم یا نمی‌دونن ایران کجاس‌، یا بهمون انگ تروریست می‌زنن و چهار تا فحش هم بارمون می‌کنن یا این که خیلی راحت جوابمون رو نمی‌دن!! این ذلت نیست؟ ما لیاقتمون اینه؟ حالا اگه انرژی صلح آمیز هسته‌ای داشته باشیم یوهو آقا می‌شیم؟ واسمون غرور میاره؟ سرمون رو بالا می‌گیریم؟ دیگه ازمون انگشت نگاری نمی‌شه؟ دیگه انگ تروریست بهمون نمی‌زنن؟ دیگه همه تحویلمون می‌گیرن؟ به من بگین&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

href="http://www.rezaghassemi.org/"&gt;رضا قاسمی&lt;/a&gt; فوق‌العاده بود. سال 64 نوشته شده و سال 65 اجرا شده که به علت مشکلات اون زمان بیشتر از 32 شب دووم نیاورده. واقعاً جا داره که دوباره روی صحنه ببرنش؛ حتی توی این فضایی که آقایون دارن مقدمات ظهور رو فراهم می‌کنن، فکر نکنم بش مجوز ندن&lt;br /&gt;امروز هوای تهران واقعا محشر بود. یک بارش آرامش بخش که باعث می‌شد همه‌ی نگرانی هات رو فراموش کنی، و بعدش هم یک مه رویایی که درون‌گراها رو از سوراخاشون بیرون می‌کشید. لذت قدم زدن با پوتین، تو جاهایی که آب جمع شده بود رو از دست ندادم. رفتیم گل فروشی واسه گیاه جدیدی که توی آب گذاشته بودم تا ریشه بده، یه گلدون خریدیم. دوست دارم گیاه پرورش بدم. احساس خیلی خوبی بهم می‌ده. اشکال کارم اینه که اسم گیاهام رو نمی‌دونم&lt;br /&gt;تصمیم گرفتم روی وبلاگم از موزیک زمینه استفاده کنم. از قطعه‌ی "بلک کافی" از "&lt;a href="http://www.peggylee.com/"&gt;پگی لی&lt;/a&gt;" تکه‌ای رو که می‌خواستم بریدم و واسه اين که موقع بارشدن خيلي لفت نده، حجمش رو کم کردم. فایل نهایی رو گذاشتم توی "یاهو بریفکیس" اما لولی نتوتسته بود بشنوه. گویا بریفکیس رو فقط خودم بهش دسترسی دارم بنابراین باید جای فایل رو تغییر بدم. هنوز نمی‌دونم دیگه کجا میشه گذاشتش&lt;br /&gt;دارم یه سری آهنگای "جَز" که مدت‌ها بود گوش نداده بودم،

type='text'>احساسات بعد از دفاع</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="right"&gt;از روزی که دفاع کردم پر از احساسات متضاد شدم. گاهی احساس آزادی می‌کنم. می‌شینم توی کتابخونه و با فراغ بال به ترجمه‌ام می‌پردازم و حتی اگه وسطشم یه چرت بزنم اصلاً دچار عذاب وجدان نمی‌شم و حتی به لولی اس‌ام‌اس می‌زنم که&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; "I’m enjoying translation after a short nap in the library and feeling the sensation of after-defence freedom”.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;br /&gt; گاهیم که به روز دفاع و قیافه ابلهانه استادا که مثل گاو آدمو نگاه میکنن و گاهی سر دفاع چرتشون می‌گیره فکر می‌کنم و به این که چقدر احمقانه حاصل زحمت دوساله‌ی آدم رو بر اساس احساس گهی اون روزشون و سر کل‌کل با استادای دیگه که می‌خوان کم نیارن و این که از چشم و ابروت خوششون بیاد یا نه و ... ارزش‌گذاری می‌کنن، اعصابم به هم می‌ریزه و بعدش با این نتیجه می‌رسم من اگه نتونم واسه دکترا پذیرش بگیرم اصلا قدرت موندن رو ندارم&lt;br /&gt;احمقانش اینه که واسه این که از این احمقا به قول بروبچ شریف "رکام" بگیرم، هیچ اعتراضی نباید بکنم. وقتی استاد راهنمام سر جلسه دفاعم وقتي که باید هوای منو داشته باشه، خودشو میزنه به کوچه علی چپ، من باید به روی خودم نیارم و توی کسری از ثانیه تمام مواردی رو که ممکنه بهش احتیاج پیدا کنم، توی ذهن مغشوش از این همه رفتارهای پیش بینی نشده، مرور کنم. &lt;br /&gt;در آخر به این نتیجه می‌رسم که "بی‌خیال! گور باباشون! آقا زحمت کشیدی؟ دستت هم درد نکنه، حالا بیا

یهو خیلی سرم شلوغ شد. کار و درس و مخصوصا این پروژه که خیلی ازم انرژی برد. همیشه یه پاره بزرگ از ذهنم مسوولیت نگرانی از پروژم رو به عهده داشت. پاره های دیگه هم خیلی بی کار نبودن! خلاصه این که از خودم دور بودم. امروزم عین این خوره های روانی نشستم پای وبلاگ وتا اون جایی که سر در می آوردم سعی کردم شکل و شمایلش رو تغییر بدم و تا جای ممکن فارسیش کنم. مثلا می خواستم امروز صبح زود کوهم برم! دیگه داره صبح

بعد از 450 سال (این پاپ از اون لهستانیاش بود و می گن چقدم به این که لهستان به این جا برسه یعنی از دست کمونیسم خلاص شه و به جایی برسه که تو جنگ عراق  جزو اولین کشور های متحد امریکا باشه، کمک کرده) در 84 سالگی مرد. هنو خبرش تو گوگل نیوز نیومده! عکس العمل اروپایی ها جالبه و واسه من عجیب. اولا که هزاران نفر زایر بی کار تو میدون سن پیترز رم (واتیکان) جمع شدن و دعا میخونن و شمع روشن می کنن، اینو خیلی جاها داره مستقیم نشون میده.  زنگ کلیساها به صدا در اومده. بعدم اکثر کانالای موزیک برنامشونو قطع کردن: کانال ویوا که مال همشهریای پاپه زده تا اطلاع ثانوی بزن بکوب تعطیله، مجیک ایتالیا عین کانالای خودمون یه عکس پاپ رو زده و آهنگ عزا پخش می کنه، فورفان تی وی هیچی نشون نمی ده، رای داک ایتالیا که همیشه این موقع ها یه کنسرت کلاسیک می ذاره این کارشو ادامه داده منتها تو کنسرتی که داره پخش می کنه پاپم بوده... خلاصه اوضاییه. حالا هم پیر پاتالای واتیکان اون مجمع فوق سریشون رو ترتیب دادن تا پاپ جدیدو تعیین کنن، اما میگن هیش کی پاپ خودمون نمیشه! راستی یادم اومد خاتمی که رفته بود واتیکان واسه پاپ فیلمای وی اچ اس سریال اصحاب کهف رو برده بود گداشته بود رو میز که اینم یه فیلم باحاله آوردم ببینی! فک کرده پاپ بی کاره بیاد فیلمای مزخرف صدا و سیما رو ببینه، خود ماها نمی بینیم&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

type='text'>کیخسرو سورابجی</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="right"&gt;کیخسرو سورابجی یکی از نامعمول ترین و عجیب ترین موارد در تاریخ موسیقی است. در سراسر قرن بیستم عالی ترین موسیقیدانان آثارش را ستوده اند، اما به دلیل این که آهنگساز در سال 1936 اجرای آثارش را قدغن کرد، به مرد مرموز جهان موسیقی بدل شد. البته، از سورابجی آثار زیادی منتشر شده است و بسیاری از پارتیسیون هایش در شمار مهیب ترین و دشوار ترین آثار در کل تاریخ موسیقی به شمار می آیند. فقط طول مدت اجرای آن ها از حد تحمل مشارکت انسانی فراتر میرود. اپوس کلاویچمبالیستیکوم را خود آهنگساز این چنین توصیف می کند: "مهم ترین اثر برای پیانو بعد از هنر فوگ" و اثری است که بیش از دو ساعت زمان میبرد. زبان پیانویی سورابجی یادآور امپرسیونیسم و سکریابین با هم است و پلی فونی بسیار پیچیده ای در طول آن شنیده میشود. نمی توان حدی برای غرابت فیگوراسیون های آن تعیین کرد، و پیانیستی را می طلبد که با ایثار و از جان گذشتگی نسبت به اثر احساس تعهد داشته باشد&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;از هنر پیانو، دیوید دوبال، ترجمه علیرضا سید

مي چکيد، ميکشيد به موهاي بغل دستي من که البته اون هيچ عکس العملي هم نشون نمي داد! برگشتم به مامان نوزاد تذکر دادم... حالا بچه تو بغل من بود! شروع کردم باهاش حرف زدن، اما انگاري زبون منو نمي فهمید. از مامانه که پرسيدم معلوم شد همون طور که حدس زده بودم بچه انگليسي بلده و تا حالا فقط تو دو سه موقعیت بوده که از زبونش کلمات فارسی شنیده شده.  شروع کردم باهاش انگليسي صحبت کردن، اما چون عکس العمل مناسبی نديدم متوجه شدم که انگلیسی بچه گونه رو نميتونم صحبت کنم! بعد شروع کردم واسه نوزاده به ادا بازی! بچه بدجوری قهقهه می زد؛ اون قدی که نگران شدم و ادا بازی رو تموم کردم، اما اون همچنان قهقهه می زد! بعدش دستشو گرفت به شکمشو همون طور که می خندید گفت ای وای چقد خندیدم و در حالی که شکمشو می مالید ادامه داد این جا احساس می کنم یه چیز سفتی هست! من خیلی نگران شدم که این با خنده ها که عاملش من بودم ارتباطی داشته باشه!! اما با صداهایی که از عقب اومد متوجه شدم که این موضوع واسه نوزاد طبیعیه. خیالم راحت شد&lt;br /&gt;پا شدم&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div
