Radio, Over ...

L ast week I quited radio ... Lately I barely had time to make programs or better say good ones. I was careless ... I didn't have time at all and it reflect in the shows as well. I quited not to bring down the quality with my mistakes :-)

But I think I would write here that I should thank a person called "Vita Melinauskaite" for teaching me a lot during the time I was working there with her. I learnt quite a lot from her from my daily behaviors to how to make programs and ... She is a good friend, a good director, sometimes very tough but kind and responsible over what she should take care of ... I quarreled with her a lot in this period about things which mostly I found she was right and sometimes she was not but anyway ...

I think at the end, I just should say loud : Thank you vita for everything you did for me, from life lessons to Radio lessons, and I am sorry for all the mistakes I made as a beginner and a friend :-)


With highest regards to Vita.

Shahab.

Boil it man, boil it before drinking !!!

I waked up late this morning ! As usual for late wakings, I missed the first class ... No surprise !!! But the surprise just popped up when before doing anything, like washing my teeth or eating breakfast, I sat at my desk to check my email :

DON'T DRINK WATER BEFORE BOILING IT FOR 3 MINUTES !!!


What the hell was this one ? well the message was short & clear ... They had found some parasite in Oslo's water and now they were using every possible way to alarm and inform people about it. I hadn't watched the news from the night before but I got the alarming email from my university administration ... Well the system alarmed perfect, at least for me. Even my strange neighbor tried to warn me about it.

But as there is always a problem for careless people, when I got back home from university I totally forgot about the whole parasite thing and drank a glass of water from tap !!! DAMN ! whatever I even didnt bother myself to read about it in the newspapers and I found out at night from another neighbor that we were supposed to even wash our dishes with boiled water !!! Very good, I didn't do that as well ... I AM JUST WAITING FOR THE SYMPTOMS TO GO TO DOCTOR :-D

They should think of something soon I guess ... This parasite and bacteria pumping up suddenly in city waters in Norway is not a new thing, last year it happened in Bergen and now in Oslo and god knows where it is going to come up again till they start to care more about the filtration of water as they lack layers in filtration circles here in Norway. The idea that the water from nature is clean and good doesn't work for a big city, Norwegians better change their idea about it faster or they are going to face severe problems. Newspapers are going to write severe critiques about the department that should care about this case and I think someone will loose his seat.

No decent thing in centeral part of axis of Evil !!!

Sometimes I do wonder how blind someone can be ?!

The famous London - Sydney got stuck in Tehran because of their technical difficulties as they should change their bus ... All okay up to here and it is not non of my buisiness that how bad the services of this long tur is BUT what made me write these lines is that I read a message from one of the passangers of this long tur from Tehran.
She wrote to her mother back in UK that : "We are currently stuck in this hell hole waiting for a replacement bus as ours is no longer roadworthy, but where on earth are they going get anything decent in Iran? Mutiny is in the air and everyone is so angry it's unbelievable. The only food supplies we've been able to buy since Istanbul is from petrol stations."

I have no idea what kind of bus they use but we produce so many different types of bus in Iran. Maybe they just need to open their eyes a little bit more !!! I remind to the company and this lady that you are in a country which is a biggest car producer in whole middle east. I guess there is no food supply as well in Iran which they never stopped by to buy something like very different types of Iranian made potato chips, snacks, cakes, delicious dishes ... There is something wrong with this trip ...
