Third News)Amazon levels at 30 – year low)

englishlab — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 09:49:18 GMT

The Amazon is a lifeline for everyone in the river basin, from businessmen in the big city of Manaus to indigenous tribes in remote settlements.

When water levels fall, the biggest effect is on transport – ferries area barges are the only real way of moving goods and people around an area that spans about half the South American continent . In the last few weeks, the river and its tributaries have become increasingly difficult to navigate, and vital supplies of food , medicine and fuel are now struggling to get through. In an example of the risks, sixteen people were killed last Friday in a ferry accident which the captain blamed on difficult river conditions.

The dry weather in the Amazon has also caused huge fires in jungle areas. One recent blaze covered northern Bolivia in smoke, as well as the neighbouring part of brazil.

As to the cause of this low rainfall, scientists say it's probably cycles in the climate , not global warming. they think the weather in the Amazon is affected by sunspots and water temperatures in the Pacific – factors which vary in regular patterns. The bad news is that this dry cycle is expected to continue for another month.

Supplication

Allahumma salli 'ala, sayyidina,

Muhammadin an-Nabiyyi al-ummiyyi,

Wa 'ala alihi wa sahbihi wa sallim

(o Allah, send your peace and blessings upon our master Muhammad the unlettered prophet, and upon his family and companions)

O My lord

My sins are like

The highest mountain,

My good deeds

Are very few

They're like a small pebble.

I turn to you

My heart full of shame,

My eyes full of tears.

Bestow your

Forgiveness and mercy

Upon me

Ya Allah,

Send your peace and blessings

On the final prophet,

And his family

And his companions,

And those who follow him.

Live 8 performers profit question

No one knows what the effect of the weekend's concerts will be on the leaders about to gather for the G8 in Gleneagles in Scotland or on the millions living in poverty in Africa. But we do know what the effect has been on the record sales of several of the rock n roll millionaires who played. They've soared. Sales of Madonna's greatest hits have trebled according to a week on week comparison by one of Britain's biggest chains of record shops. But this is a modest boost compared to an eight fold increase for the veteran rockers the who and a remarkable fourteen times more copies sold of the latest compilation by Pink Floyd.

This is potentially embarrassing for those involved in the concerts, as the cynics favorite accusation has always been that rock stars use charity to disguise self promotion.

Perhaps aware of this one of the stars of the London concert has announced that he will not profit from the surge in sales and will donate his royalties to charity. David Gilmour, the guitarist of Pink Floyd is known as a generous donor – again cynics will point out he can afford it, but his is an important gesture in maintaining the moral high-ground of those involved in what was presented as a principled campaign against poverty. Gilmour urged other musicians-as well as their record companies-to make similar donations.

مرد تمام دو سالانه های ایران

مرد تمام دوسالانه های ایران

استعفای آقای دکتر حبیب الله صادقی رئیس موزه هنر های معاصر تهران

18 مدير در عرض 29سال ركوردي است كه موزه هنرهاي معاصر تهران به آن دست يافته است.

يعني عمر هر مدير در مهم ترين مركز مرتبط با هنرهاي تجسمي كشور حتي از يك سال و نيم هم كمتر است. مدير اين موزه در طول ساليان گذشته، مديريت مركز هنرهاي تجسمي وزارت ارشاد را نيز برعهده داشت. مرداني كه در سال هاي گذشته بر صندلي اتاق مديريت موزه در راهرو حلزوني شكل آن تكيه زده اند، خطوط اصلي و سياست هاي كلان هنرهاي تجسمي كشور ر ا نيز تعيين كرده اند.

اين روزها بازهم در مديريت موزه تغييراتي ايجاد شده است. تغييراتي كه كمتر كسي انتظار آن را داشت چرا كه حبيب الله صادقي، آخرين مدير موزه و مركز هنرهاي تجسمي، سياست هاي اين دو مركز را كاملا تغيير داده بود و آنها را در مسيري پيش مي برد كه با مجموعه وزارت فرهنگ و ارشاد اسلامي هماهنگي داشت. او حتي در آخرين صحبت هاي خود پيش از استعفا از اين سمت از طرح هاي بلند پروازانه اي گفته بود كه قصد اجراي آنها را در سال 87 داشت اما گويا او هم مانند مدير پيش از خود نتوانست در موزه دوام بياورد و از زيرزميني بيرون آمد كه گران ترين تابلوهاي موجود در ايران در آن نگهداري مي شوند.

حبيب الله صادقي حضور خود در مركز هنرهاي تجسمي و موزه هنرهاي معاصر را با فعاليت هاي عمراني آغاز كرد و در صدد تغيير هنرستان هنرهاي تجسمي پسران و سالن سينماتك موزه هنرهاي معاصر تهران برآمد. صادقي سال ها پيش در همان هنرستان درس خوانده بود و پس از آن قدم در راه نقاش شدن گذاشت. او به نسلي تعلق دارد كه با انقلاب اسلامي به نخستين تجربه هاي هنري جدي خود دست زدند و به عنوان نقاشان انقلاب و دفاع مقدس شناخته شدند.

صادقي در بدو ورود خود به موزه هنرهاي معاصر تهران نمايشگاه «شرق خيال» را برگزار كرد. نمايشگاهي كه نمونه آن را در سال هاي گذشته در فرهنگسراي نياوران، مجموعه فرهنگستان هنر و خود موزه هنرهاي معاصر تهران ديده بوديم. بزرگ ترين دستاورد صادقي در طول 2سالي كه در موزه هنرهاي معاصر حضور داشت به برپايي دوسالانه هاي عقب افتاده هنري باز مي گردد كه البته درباره كيفيت آنها اما و اگر زياد است. صادقي را مي توان به راحتي مرد دوسالانه هاي هنري ايران ناميد چون هيچ كس در مدت زماني كه او بر مسند رياست تكيه زده بود اين همه دوسالانه برگزار نكرد.

ناگفته نماند كه صادقي هم در اين نمايشگاه ها حضور داشت اما حضور او به عنوان يك خريدار بود، نه برگزار كننده. حبيب الله صادقي در يكي از آخرين گفت و گوهاي خود به عنوان مدير مركز هنرهاي تجسمي وزارت ارشاد، همچنان صحبت هاي اميدواركننده داشت. او در روزهاي پاياني فروردين به خبرگزاري فارس گفت:«با افزايش بودجه اي كه در نظر گرفته شده است، امسال فشاري كه در بخش برگزاري دوسالانه هاي مختلف داشتيم مرتفع خواهد شد.»كمتر از3هفته از اين صحبت هاي صادقي گذشته بود كه او همراه با خبر استعفاي خود گفت:« اگر بودجه مورد نياز، اختصاص داده نشود يا حمايت بعدي صورت نگيرد، فكر نمي كنم كمك ويژه اي بتوان به اين جامعه كرد.»

Miss Richards was a teacher at a school for boys and girls. She taught chemistry and physics from the lowest to the highest classes in the school. Some times the new classes learnt rapidly ,but some times they were very slow , and then Miss Richards had to repeat things many times.

One year, the first class had been studying chemistry for several weeks when Miss Richards suddenly asked, "What is water? Who knows? Hands up!"

There was silence for a few seconds, and Miss Richards felt saddened , but thenone boy raised his hand.

"Yes, Dick?" said Miss Richards encouragingly. He was not one of the brightest children in the class, so she was glad that he could answer.

"Water is liquid which has no colour until you wash your hands in it, Miss. Then it turns back," the boy replied with great confidence.

Alayhi salatullah

Children are wearing new clothes

Bright colours fill the streets

Their faces full of laughter

Their pockets full of sweets

Let us rejoice indeed

For this is the day of Eid

Mosques are full of worshippers

In rows straight and neat

Their Lord they remember, His name they repeat

Their hands are raised to the sky

They supplicate and plead

On this blessed day

Forgive us they entreat

Let us rejoice indeed

For this is the day of Eid

People are giving charity

And helping those in need

In giving they're competing

Today there is no greed

Let us rejoice indeed

For this is the day of Eid

Enemies embracing each other

All hatred is buried

Every one is celebrating

Greeting every one they meet

Let us rejoice indeed

For this is the day of Eid

The cautious captain of a small ship had to go along a coast with which he was unfamiliar , so he tried to find a qualified pilot to guide him. He went ashore in one of the small ports where his ship stopped, and a local fisherman pretended that he was one because he needed some money. The captain took him on board and let him tell him where to steer the ship.

After half an hour the captain began to suspect that the fisherman did not really know what he was doing or where he was going so he said to him,' are you sure you are a qualified pilot?

'Oh, yes' answered the fisherman .'I know every rock on this part of the coast.'

Suddenly there was a terrible tearing sound from under the ship.

At once the fisherman added," and that's one of them."
