Few days ago BBC showed a video of an execution in Iran. You can find it in Youtube. I don't think it's a good idea to put the link in here!

but if you like to have a short fun, pay a visit to Charlie:

some people pronunce it like /bier/ and some like /bir/.

In Iran it's equal to death: have a look.




It seems Yahoo is more faithful about Persian Gulf that Iran's president:

what I've learnt in Sydney

One year passed from the first day I arrived in Sydney.

I have learned some life lessons mainly in Sydney that I like to share:

* I've learnt, smile generates smile. Having a great greeting can be more powerful than a long explanation/talk.

* I've learnt, being proactive in life is the key to success.
(most of the people are passive, some are active and few are proactive!)

* I've learnt, a person who keeps secrets is more precious than a person who unfastens his own secrets.

* I've learnt, one who tries and loses is more successful than who doesn’t try and thinks he wins.

* I've learnt, Some Australians are too polite to correct my mistakes. It can prevent me getting to know my mistakes.

* I've learnt, a good exercise can give me more confidence in a long job interview.

* I've learnt, we, most of Iranians are not liberated enough in life.

* I've learnt, a big smile is a secret of successful businessmen.

* I've learnt, when people say something is hard to achieve, it’s definitely achievable. When they say it's easy to achieve, it’s a joke.

* I've learnt, a weak greeting is accompanied with a negative mind.

* I've learnt, people say:”you can not“because they can not.
(similar to a dialogue in “pursuit of happiness”)



Oh! I can’t think any more at the moment!

Some posts don't need any sort of explanations.

I was surfing in commonwealth net banking website and found this page:

I think everyday we get more isolated form other parts of the world.

Sydney new year's fire works

Sydney new year's fire works was really nice and beyond my imagination.

thousands of people gathered around the centre of the show (Harbour bridge) even more than 12 hours prior to new year.

There are many videos in youtube.



Lifestyle books, journals and websites are popular in this part of the world.
this website has a high click-hit rate and contains useful articles in relate to be more efficient in our lives.

Einstein's Quotation

If A is success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.

Albert Einstein, Observer, Jan. 15, 1950
US (German-born) physicist (1879 - 1955)

Have a look if you need a bad break.

We all know that.

Garry Kasparov's new book

I found the information of kasparov's new book in one of the magazines and look forward to buy it.

Do it yourself

recently I talked to some Iranians in the process of applying for residency from Iran. That's a good idea but do it yourself.

Some agents confine the applicants in their limited cages and even prevent giving some normal and accessible information to the applicants.

Everybody can apply for residency from official immigration website.

All of the information is available in the website and even Australian agents refer to this website to find answers to likely questions. It just makes sense as the website is carrier of the whole required information.

After finding your information, you can apply yourself within the website. you can download the forms and apply either online or paper based.

It just need some time and patience so do it yourself.

After a while

Sometimes I have many things to write in the weblog but after opening the page, I can't decide what to write and which subject has the priority.

Last night I was invited to a theatre centre in Sydney by a friend of mine.
It was my first theatre after two years so I was excited and missed all my friends who were my companies while watching theatre in Tehran.
It was a nearly four hour dancing show with hundreds of young dancing college graduates. you can see the information in here.

Sculpture by the Sea

Yesterday I visited this popular annual sculpture exhibition.

It is worthed to have a look to this website.

I don't know why sometimes I get reluctant to write in here.

I like to write about environment in Australia and the way people protect it and about governmental websites and also happiness.

I am starting writing shortly:)
