Long ago in a small, far away village, there was place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often."
In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again."
All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet?

How Poor We Are! پدر، ما چقدر فقیریم!
One day a father and his rich family took his son to a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be.
They spent a day and a night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"
"Very good Dad!" "Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked.
"Yeah!"
"And what did you learn?"
The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden, they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard, they have a whole horizon." When the little boy was finishing, his father was speechless.
His son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are!"

A SHORT MORAL STORYداستانی اخلاقی
WHO IS POOR
Once a rich and greedy merchant went to him and offered him a bag full of gold coins. The saint refused to accept the offerings and said, "I don't accept money from people who are very poor."
The merchant said, "But I'm very rich."
"Don't you wish to earn more money?" asked the saint.
"Yes", said the merchant.
"Those who wish for money always run after it. They can do anything to acquire it. No one is as poor as these people" said the saint.
The merchant felt ashamed and went back to his home.

KEEPING THE DOCTOR AWAY
Once there were two sisters named Annie and Jenny. One day they were cycling. Suddenly, Annie lost her balance and fell down and started crying. Jenny helped her in getting up and took her home.
At home, their mother bandaged her and asked their father to take Annie to a doctor for a tetanus injection.
On hearing the name of injection, Annie immediately went to the kitchen and took out an apple from the refrigerator.
Just then Jenny came into the kitchen and asked Annie whether she was scared of injection. At this Annie replied, "Yes, I am afraid of injection. That's why I am eating this apple. Didn't our teacher say that an apple away keeps the doctor away?"

TWO TRAVELLERS AND SOME MONEY
The other man said, "Remember we are traveling together. So, don't say I've found it, say we have found it."
After some time, they heard that the police were looking for the thieves who had stolen a bag of money.
The man holding the bag said, "We are undone."
The other man said, "Don't say we are undone but I'm undone. When I wouldn't share any money, I'll not have any punishment."

THE MILKMAID
Once a milkmaid walked to the market carrying a pot of milk on her head. While walking, she dreamt of selling the milk she was carrying and buying eggs.
Then she planned that when the eggs would hatch, she will sell the chickens and with that money she would buy beautiful clothes, and imagined how people would admire her.
Just then, she tossed her head proudly and all the milk split on the ground and with that, all her dreams shattered.

The Effect of Prayer on the Human Body تاثیر دعا بر مغز انسان
This research was carried out by Dr. Newberg, the assistant Professor at X-Ray division of the Pennsylvania University Medical Center, on a group of faithful people who have faith in God , practice their prayers and come from different religious backgrounds.
This as done using Single Photon C.T. scan that shows the flow of blood in the cerebrum using colors which are based on brain activity where the color Red represents high activity and Yellow and Green represent low activity.
The First Image
The image shows the brain before meditation and prayer(on the left) and during prayer (on the right) where we see that during the envolvement in prayers and meditation, blood flow has increased , frontal lobe region is responsible for controlling emotions and agitations in humans.

The Second Image
The image shows a a blood flow decline in the the Parietal lobe at the region where humans sense their time and space limits. It was concluded from these results that during prayer, contemplation and seeking Allah, the limits of self-conciousness dissapear and a feeling of peace and freedom starts in the person and one feels closer to Allah in a way that no words can describe.
NEVER BE UNGRATEFUL هرگز ناسپاس نباش
It was high summer. The sun was extremely hot. Two travelers were going along a dusty road that had no trees along its sides. Looking for some shelter from the hot sun, they saw a tree with big leaves and branches spread like an umbrella.
They placed their belongings on the ground and sat in the cool thick shade of the tree. After taking some rest, one traveler said to the other, "What a useless tree it is! It bears no fruits at all."
Hearing this, the tree felt pinched and burst out, "You ungrateful soul! On one hand, you are taking shelter in my cool shade from the burning heat of the sun and on the other hand, you are calling me useless. Get up and leave the place immediately to be scorched again."

PEACE OF MIND آرامش ذهن
Suddenly, a man came there on a horse, a famous dacoit. He dismounted, went to the shepherd and said, "Come and work with me. I will give you clothes and shoes. You will not have to worry even for your food."
At this the shepherd replied, "I am content being a shepherd. At least I have peace of mind which you don't have."
Hearing this, the dacoit got stunned and immediately went to the police station and surrendered.

Bees killed by mobile phone signalsکشته شدن زنبورها با سیگنالهای تلفن همراه؟؟؟؟؟؟
An unusually high number of honey bee deaths in Britain this year may be caused by radiation from mobile phone signals, say experts.
In some cases, 70 per cent of bees exposed to radiation failed to find their way back to the hive after searching for pollen and nectar, according to the research by Landau University.
John Chapple, one of London's foremost beekeepers, said 30 of his 40 hives were empty and that other hives around London had lost up to 75 per cent of their bees.
This could have far-reaching implications for farming, as bees pollinate millions of hectares of fruit trees and crops.

Chew for Health آدامس در کلاس:آری یا خیر؟؟ آدامس جویدن و مزایا و معایب آن
Scientists are finding evidence that gum chewing may be good for your health. It may even help boost your test scores.
Just what can gum do for your health? Many studies show that chewing gum after meals fights cavities by stimulating the production of saliva. Saliva helps wash away bacteria that damage our teeth.
Gum made with sugar can promote cavities. But some gums contain an ingredient that fights tooth decay. Chewing also stimulates production of saliva, which washes away cavity-causing bacteria.
Chewing gum might also be good for your brain. One Japanese study of nine participants found that chewing gum boosted the flow of blood to participants' brains by up to 40 percent. Blood carries oxygen, which fuels brain cells.
Chewing a gumball or stick of gum that contains a medicine might help a person more than taking a tablet or a pill that contains the same medicine.These discoveries can help other researchers develop medicine-containing gums that fight colds, relieve headaches, battle nervousness, and more. Scientists might even create antimicrobial gums that cure bad breath.
Those projects may take years, but gum scientists have already had at least one recent success: They've created a gum that could help us stay awake.
Most schools ban chewing gum, but in a few years they might consider changing that rule. Why?
Did you allow your students to chew gums in class if you were a teacher?Why?

US school drops paper for laptops استفاده از کامپیوتر به جای کتاب و دفتر.... موافقید؟؟
Kids at an Arizona high school are going all high tech, as their teachers have decided to replace their paper books with state-of-the-art laptops.
Empire High School in the US has given all its pupils Apple iBooks to use in lessons and for their homework.
The new technology means teachers don't have to stick to the textbooks in lessons, but can pick material from all over the internet.
Instead of spending cash on new textbooks, the school simply used it for the laptops.
Book lovers are still catered for though, as the school still has a traditional paper library.
Do you think pen and paper will die out?Which one do you prefer? A laptop or a book?

Lack of sleep 'makes you fatter' بی خوابی باعث چاقی می شود
Not getting enough sleep could be one of the main reasons more and more kids are becoming overweight.
An expert in obesity reckons kids are staying up later playing computer games and watching TV in their rooms.
But he says a lack of sleep makes you want to eat sugary food to give you energy - and that piles on the weight.
Not getting enough kip also makes you tired, meaning you're less likely to want to do the exercise which would keep your weight down.
Dr Shahrad Taheri said the chemicals our bodies make to control things like how hungry we feel are affected by how much we sleep.
He reckons one of the first steps towards fighting the problem is taking gadgets, TVs, computers and consoles, out of your bedroom to encourage you to get your head down.

Three nice jokes
The Last Ticket
During a busy holiday weekend, a woman who was eight months pregnant went to the railway station to return home to her husband. At the reservation counter, when her turn came, there was only one ticket left. Taking pity on a very old lady behind her in line, she offered her berth to the old lady and sent a telegram to her husband which arrived with a small error: "Shall be coming tomorrow, heavy rush in the train, gave birth to an old lady."
Chemistry Class
One day, the chemistry teacher asked his students, "What is the chemical formula for water?" Silly Suzie immediately raised her hand. "Yes, Suzie, what's the answer?", the teacher asked. Suzie answered proudly, "The chemical formula for water is 'HIJKLMNO'!" Her teacher looked perplexed. He asked, "What are you talking about?" Suzie replied, "Yesterday you said the formula for water is H to O!"
A Big Decision
A six-year-old boy walked up to his father one day and announced, 'Daddy, I'd like to get married.'
His father replied hesitantly, 'Sure, son, do you have anyone special in mind?'
'Yes,' answered the boy. 'I want to marry Grandma.'
'Now, wait a minute,' said his father. 'You don't think I'd let you get married with my mother, do you?'
'Why not?' the boy asked. 'You married mine.'

Chicken Talk مرغها هم صحبت می کنند
According to new research, chickens make meaningful sounds that refer to objects around them. A pecking chicken that goes "tck, tck, tck," for example, is saying, "Hey look, there's food!"
The discovery marks the first time that an animal other than people, monkeys, and other primates has been found to make sounds that, like words, represent something in the world around them.
Previous studies had shown that male chickens make certain clucking noises when they find food. Other studies had also shown, for example, that chickens make alarm calls when scared by an intruder.The calls differ depending on whether the intruder walks or flies toward them. And other chickens react by looking either up in the air or around on the ground.
So wonderful, isn't it?

Bees inspire aircraft scientists هواپیماهایی به اندازه یک زنبور عسل :درسهای پرواز از حشرات
Scientists have been busy getting some flying lessons - from bees.
They're looking at what makes the tiny creatures - and other insects - fly so well as part of a plan to build a very small aircraft.
They've found that the wings of small insects are very flexible, which allows them to lift off the ground and move forward quickly.
The aircraft could be used to get things into dangerous places, as well as secret stuff like spying missions.
One of the scientists said: "This is a very important step forward in understanding how we can create tiny aircraft that could be so useful for us.
"Our work will make the goal of tiny aircraft, perhaps eventually only the size of bees, a step closer."
Some small aircraft measuring only a few centimetres in size have already been built in America, but so far they've only be able to stay up for a few minutes.

The Girl Who loved to Draw دختری که نقاشی کشیدن را خیلی دوست داشت
Sophie was ten year old and loved to draw. She drew before breakfast. She drew after breakfast. Sometimes she even drew on her way to school.
Sophie liked to draw strange things. She drew pictures of wild green dragons and castles and monsters! She also drew normal things: her house, her dog called Stomper, her school. She even drew her teachers.
One day Sophie arrived late at school.
“Why are you late, Sophie?” asked her teacher.
'I'm sorry, Miss, I was drawing the big house on the way to school. I forgot about the time.”
'Oh Sophie,' said her teacher. 'You must think less about your drawing and more about school. Can you give me your homework now please?'
'I’m sorry, Miss, I don’t have it.'
'Why not, Sophie?'
'Yesterday I was in town. I saw a man running down the road. He had an interesting face so I drew him.'
The teacher gave Sophie a strange look. 'But Sophie, there was a bank robbery in town yesterday...'
'Perhaps that was the man I saw,' said Sophie. 'Perhaps I have drawn a picture of the robber!'
After school, Sophie went to the police station. She showed her picture to a policeman.
'Where did you get this picture?' asked the policeman.
'I drew it,' said Sophie. 'I drew it yesterday in town.'
'This is a picture of Ronnie the Robber,' cried the policeman. 'So Ronnie robbed the bank! Thank you Sophie. Now we can arrest him.'
Now her teachers were very proud of Sophie, the girl who loves to draw.

Unconditional Love عشق بدون قید و شرط
A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco.
"Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend I'd like to bring home with me."
"Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him."
"There's something you should know the son continued, "he was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mind and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come live with us."
"I'm sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live."
"No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us."
"Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden on us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."
At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building, they were told. The police believed it was suicide. The grief-stricken parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.

Return my horse! اسب مرا برگردانید وگرنه؟
A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen. He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling. "Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!?!?" he yelled with surprising forcefulness. No one answered. "Alright, I'm gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain't back outside by the time I finish, I'm gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don't like to have to do what I dun in Texas!" Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse had been returned to the post. He saddled up and started to ride out of town. The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, before you go... what happened in Texas?" The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."
