Valencia's Welcome Boost

Antonio Valencia could return to action as early as February, according to Sir Alex.

A statement released by the club on Thursday said the Ecuador winger, who dislocated and fractured his ankle against Rangers on Tuesday night, was likely to miss “a good portion of the season”.

Given Alan Smith took seven months to return after suffering a similar injury at Liverpool in February 2006 many assumed Valencia would return in April or May.

But the manager confirmed on Friday morning that the prognosis was better than first expected.

“Antonio had his operation and it was successful,” he said. “The break was clean and we were delighted to announce that. It was a major concern for us at the time.

“There’s ligament damage but we’re looking at the end of February, which is better than we thought on Tuesday night. He’s a strong boy and he’s very positive about it – being positive helps in these situations.”

Get Well Soon Antonio

The Villain

While joy gave clouds the light of stars,
That beamed where'er they looked;
And calves and lambs had tottering knees,
Excited,while they sucked;
While every bird enjoyed his song,
Without one thought of harm or wrong-
I turned my head and saw the wind,
Not far from where I stood,
Dragging the corn by her golden hair,
Into the a dark and lonely wood.

Ground Zero

The United States of America is and will be a free country ;
There's an  interesting aspect ;subcultures ,minorities are recognized ,respected and given chance to settle down.
It's a free competitive market. A natural selection .If you've got potentials to survive you'll be integrated into the main stream. 
9/11 was the crucial challenge and a lesson of tolerance to the world.An unmasking of a creeping immoral fundamentalism.
how to treat this aggressive ideology,doing a criminal act in your soil,killing thousands of innocent people...
I think 9/11 was a though test but eventually expanded the limits of tolerance, and hopefully brought a new horizon of immunity and peace. Blind extremism  will gradually turn out to be a rude and ineffectual game in the context of human civilization.


Now the souls deepen their belief in common humanistic values.
 United States always put aside the ethnic and religious differences and offered  its majestic weapon:
"Free Speech "

The History Of Panda Bears

Playwright,poet and journalist from Romania.And is now settled in Paris as journalist at Radio Frace Internationale.His recent writings mainly in  french language made him a well-known writer.
He studied History and Philosophy in the university of Bucharest before starting to write for the theatre in 1977.
Between 1977 - 1987 he wrote some 20 plays which all of them were banned by romanian censors.
I become familiar with Visniec by recommendation of a friend.The small book entitled " L'histoire des ours panda racontee par un saxophoniste qui a une petite amie a francfort " : "The history of panda bears told by a saxophonist who has a girlfriend in Frankfurt ".
The book is a comedy,as the site "demendez le programme" described " a dream nurtured by a sensitivity all on  edge. A trip funny ,magical and shifted to the heart of the intimate,away from the heaviness of the material world and the constraints of reality."
I found the persian translation impressive ,as the text is rather complicated with plenty of language technics.This book is translated to farsi by Tinoush Nazmjou.
