good, maybe you can explain the elements pf sentence too, like what does yoroshiku mean? or how do you compare these two phrases , etc. :)

?? no, I can't understand.....what does it means?

I am an Iranian .... o, I am not a terrorist nor a wife beater, I don't live in a tent in a desert and camels are not our way of transportation. I speak Farsi, not Arabic. Iran is pronounced "EERAUN" and not "I - ran" (it's not track & field) Iran is the first country on earth to have a lion (male) and a sun (female) for its symbol; and the colors red, white, and green for a flag. A beautiful country ran by the wrong people, but still the best part of Middle East

Hi Jason...sorry a little late...but if FF had BD reminders....I wouldn't have been! Happy birthday! I hope you had a great day, and that you have an even better weekend!

I was thinking of doing a video tutorial on how to do it with GIMP if anyone is interested. It's pretty simple. The set up is actually the hardest part :)
- Rahsheen is aWeSoMe ™
I'm definitely interested in seeing how you did it, but more along the lines of the setup itself.
- Jonathan Hardesty
In this case, I was learning more than anything else. The pics were taken with my laptop using the cyberlink software that came with it. I set it to burst mode and quickly got into position. I eyeballed where I should sit on the couch between each shot, but could have done a much better job there as you can see by the gap between me 3 and me 2 and how close I am to me 1.
- Rahsheen is aWeSoMe ™
I made things extra hard on myself in a few ways: 1) The only lighting was sun from the window, so it changed between photos, which made editing later harder. Most of the couch and wall goes with me 3 on the right, which almost makes the other 2 look out of place. 2) The couch cushion deforms a lot when you sit on it, so that it doesn't even match in each shot. You can tell if you look...

What did the grocer say when he handed you the last one? That's sha-llot.
- WorldofHiglet
Oh, Ayşe, I remember cooking that in culinary school. It was something like 200 servings, and I was on veg that day. I was rocking two big skillets of green beans just like that.

I used to grub pickled rakkyo like candy. I think it's some sort of a shallot.

I agree. Gene Shalit deserves more respect.

Alright, here they be. Pic 1 is a guy who won a tshirt in our raffle and wanted us to sign it. Since we didn't have a white marker to show up on a black shirt, we signed his chest in Sharpie... Pic 3 is me getting ready to whoop someone's butt in leg wrestling.
The general consensus is that I should bring the wig to my stylist and get my hair cut to match. Dying it green would also be fun but might hinder the job search.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
what about blue instead of green? or maybe fire engine red? *passes out again*
- Joe Silence (circumspect)
I'm guessing none of those would be considered 'business professional', Joe. And chances are I won't dye my hair at all, I stopped going auburn once I started to get some nice bright white hairs.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
the style is very flattering, regardless of the color.

Dear Friendfeeders, a member of my head trauma support group passed away last week. Another member wrote a wonderful blog about her http://maryfoundation.wordpress.com/2010... , and would GREATLY appreciate comments to his writing. If you could please help a friend out just by reading and commenting at the site, please?
i wish to thank all people that are involved with this thread. I didn' write the article, but the authour was/is dying to get feedback, so thats why i'm pushing it here. Thanks again, :)
- chaz2b
ty shevonne & lis. i barely knew her, but the author (another member of the head trauma support group) was very close with her, that's why feedback (at that site) is of such import, :(
- chaz2b
I'm so sorry, Chaz. I posted feedback on the site. *hugs*
- LB loves you.
I'm not sure if I'm a fan. I'm signing up because turbotax told me I'd get a $5000 tax credit. Not that I will owe anywhere near that, but it'll be a good way to start my fund...

http://www.google.com/reader... I'm glad you asked this right now. I just realized that several people are following me and I didn't even know it. I hope it hasn't been this way for long!
- Michael Fidler
Just noticed that Reader now allows grouping of people you follow! Wondering: is Reader going to become a competitor (instead of complement) to FriendFeed?
- Chris Rogers
@rogersdc / Chris, Google Reader is obviously been trying to become more social, but I'd really like to see FF come out with a bookmarklet that makes sub'ing RSS feeds to FF easier/faster. Right now it's a manual process involving either a new Group/Room or Imaginary Friend. Should be 2 clicks tops.. Also see: http://friendfeed.com/alexsch...
- Alex Schleber
Here is mine : http://www.google.fr/reader.... I share (mainly on French sites and blogs) about libraries, literature and arts, human and social sciences, photography :-)
- Nadine Pestourie
LOL here we go again :o) http://www.google.com/reader... I share a lot of blogs and funny stuff that I read, it's neat how I can share and it gets posted all over by friendfeed.
- David Gross
http://www.google.com/reader... - I share items about productivity, gaming, movies, and misc. stuff from the Google "cool" via Recommendations feed. Thanks Kol for starting this thread because I've been trying to cut down on the number of feeds I subscribe to and instead just follow interesting people.
- Dusty Edenfield
Svartling: good point about adding people to groups. I noticed I couldn't comment on items that were shared by some users.
- Dusty Edenfield
I've (we) written a lot of more good tips on how to use Google Reader in Google Reader comments. It's too bad we don't have permalinks in Greader so we can share our notes and comments. Otherwise I could have posted a link here. Here are some on friendfeed: http://friendfeed.com/svartli...
- Svartling
The conversation is really blowing up (in a good way) on Reader. The most important reminder currently is to set up groups and allow commenting. That is NOT on by default!
- Vince DeGeorge
Thank you all. I think I have subscribed you all now (except those feed in languages I don't understand) Here is mine again: http://www.google.com/reader...
- Svartling
I've started to follow a few of the people here but there's quite a few, so will take me a while :) - My currently fairly bare feed is: http://www.google.com/reader...
- Roy Herrod
There are a few entries here you might like to read to help you. This one: http://ff.im/6CkQj explains about adding people to groups to allow them to comment and why some don't stay in groups. In this one: http://ff.im/6F9pQ I suggest a way to track a large number of shared items using PostRank. This: http://ff.im/6Ci0P and this: http://ff.im/6AM35 has a few tips on using GReader as a lifestreaming service. And this: http://ff.im/6EMT1 gives a few examples of GReader bundles.
- Kol Tregaskes
Those of you above whom I already follow on FF/Twitter/etc., I've subscribed to your feeds. As for the rest of you: if you follow me on GReader, I'll follow you back.
- Dennis Jernberg
I'm sharing some pages now, including a few of my past blog entries.

Because I have issues with data duplication, I have merged this list with the google reader shares room feeds. You can view the Google spreadsheet at http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc...

There are a bunch of shared feeds that I could not resolve the Google username for because they did not have a named profile set up.
- Rob Diana
tristanhambling, your link didn't work. :-(
- Kol Tregaskes
It would be really handy to have all these shared feeds as an opml file. Has anyone added everyone? Care to export an opml of the shared feeds?

I'm http://www.google.com/reader... Not really comfortable with the custom URL though since it can only be your gmail username. Makes it really easy for spamspiders I think.

Tobias, possibly but not had any problems myself though Gmail has the best spam filters around so I probably not noticed. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... mostly webdev, photography news, music, world news which i get interested. plus half of them may be article in Japanese. sorry. :-p

http://www.google.com/reader... - OK I'm in. Late as always. Will post my thoughts, feedback and pleading requests for help over in Google Reader so please follow me over there. Eat your own dog food and all that.

MF/Kol = I live in Kingston on Thames. It's OK apart from the traffic (continually gridlocked) and the shops (girls just lurve them). Handy for getting into London both airports and out to the Thames Valley for work type things. Richmond Park and the river in walking distance is great too.
- Andy C
Andy, Richmond Park and the others around there are the appeal really. Good place to go photographing and cycling while being very close to London I think.
- Kol Tregaskes
Teddington (across the river from Kingston Upon Thames, is where I think I'd like to live. Just 'cos it's cheaper than everywhere else around it. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
@Kol many years ago, we made the mistake of asking an estate agent in Surbiton whether it was any cheaper than Kingston. She replied 'No - of course not. We are on the fast line to Waterloo' and looked at us as if we were dog excrement.
- Andy C
I've checked rental prices in the area several times over the last 2 years and Teddington is definitely cheaper. I'm not buying, no way I can afford that. ;-) All a pip-dream anyway, need a steady job and I've not had that for a while. :-(
- Kol Tregaskes
anyone use google reader on windows mobile professional? I cant seem to get it to work and when I try to go to the mobile site it takes me to the regular site.
- David Gross
Nope, sorry can't help you there, David.
- Kol Tregaskes
So I have found out I will be working from home soon. Does anyone have any advice for me about setting up my home office? I have a small 120 foot area that will work for my office. I already have a flatscreen TV on one wall. How should I set it up?? Help me ... Thanks.
I love Raising Arizona, but I think either City of Angels or The Family Man is my favorite. The Weather Man was pretty good, too. And, of course, ConAir had John Cusack, so it gets an automatic nomination. I'm not very good at picking "one" thing, am I?
- Curtiss is not green
I'd have to say probably Adaptation. I like say, The Rock, but that really is a Michael Bay movie. You could swap out Cage's role with anyone and it really wouldn't affect it. It's been awhile since I've seen Raising Arizona, but I really liked that a lot too.

Kam discovered his aunt on the floor very early one morning. He ran and woke up his mom, who was able to get her some help. It turns out his "Tee Tee" had a "bleeding stroke." She was disoriented and couldn't understand us at all. This was a month ago or so. She is finally out of ICU, with a draining tube removed from her brain.
I'm so glad that she is out of the hospital. How is Kam? Was it traumatizing to him?
- Shevonne
Nah, I don't think so. He'll recount the whole thing to you if you ask, demonstration and everything of how he found her. She's out of ICU, but still in the hospital. He just misses her since they don't allow kids to visit where she was.
- Rahsheen is aWeSoMe ™
Glad she is recovering fine. Kam is awesome!
- Rene Wirtz
How he behaved here and in other situations is what makes me question the fact that he's 2. Very interesting boy.
- Rahsheen is aWeSoMe ™
Wow. Glad she's doing better. Way to go, Kam!
- LB loves you.
Looks like she is coming home tomorrow. I guess she is doing very well. Only been out of ICU a couple days...ok, one day.
- Rahsheen is aWeSoMe ™
Oh wow. She's very lucky he found her. My aunt had the same thing and went into a coma. That was 7 years ago this May.

"The last Rubik Cube that we saw on Yanko Design had textures as tease for the visually challenged; this current iteration uses only Braille. Colors embossed include green, blue, red, yellow, white & pink. One of the more sensible concepts in a long time that hopefully will delight the sighted folks too! Maybe we’ll learn Braille in this process!"
