So far, this weblog has been restricted to the use of my own students mostly.  Yesterday I opened the weblog to general audience and immediately we have had visitors from: Canada, Germany, Sweden, United Arab Imarates, Denmark and even United Kingdom.  Total visits to our weblog during its life amounts to more than 2,700.  Bear in mind that the weblog has been a restricted one for most of its life.  Yesterday we have had 52 visits from Canada and 17 visits from China alone.  46 people have used Nokia mobile phones to connect to our weblog in the world and 4 people have visited us using Macintosh computers.

Bahman's letter to Sue,

Dear Sue,
Thank you, it is so good, because I wrote my last letter by myself. I read Romeo and Juliet story and I enjoyed it. I think it is a tragedy like Leili and Majnon. We have many tragedies stories in our literature for example Farhad and Shirin. Classic literature and classic music and classic stories are more beautiful.
Moharam month will come soon. Imam Hoseyn (Imam Hoseyn is a little grandson of Mohammad) killed in this month. He killed for God. Kufe’s (a city in Iraq) people wrote letters for Imam and invited him to Kufa, but when Imam was in Kufa’s way they forgot them Imam. They wrote about 12000 letters for Imam. They sold them belief. Imam was alone and thirsty and he killed by him enemy. We called a martyr when a man or woman killed in god way.
I think by myself and ask this question from myself:
What was I doing if I was in Imam hoseyn period?
Take care,
Bahman

Faranak's Writing

Hi Sue,
I haven't write a letter for a long time. I miss you a lot and have a lot of speeches to tell you.
I had a presentation today. It was the first important presentation during the university.

2 days ago, I wrote a letter to you and wanted you to guide me about this presentation. Unfortunately my laptop detected a problem and couldn't connect to the Internet.

Dear friend, I'm studying for entrance exam. I love to accept in the IT/Network major. Network is one of the branches of IT.
IT is a young field in Iran. In Tehran, one university just accept 17 students in the Network branch.

I started to study in middle of October and my exam is in middle of February. I Started late because I had the internship in the summer, so I'm a little hopeless.
Now, I go to the university and have 10 lessons to study for this exam. I think 24 hours are very few for me, specially that I'm very sensitive to sleep.
You have a kind heart, pray for me.

Dear Sue, Could you see the site about Leili and Majnun? Is it good?
Leili and Majnun is one of the best story in Persian, It is very nice and a little sad. I really love it.
Sorry, I try to short my letter but it is long.

Your friend, Faranak.

Searching For the Source

Hello to Group:

I have a children's story about a Persian legend associated with a 16th century Mamluk carpet, explaining its pattern which looks like a landscape strewn with jewels. I have only the simple story, but wondered if anyone knew the source of this story? I am trying to collect some Persian stories that have messages. This is simply a story of a treasure lost and regained, unless you all can tell me of its deeper message.

Your friend, Sue
