Earthquake in Peru: The pain and fear again

Earthquake is part of the life and is not avoidable. But the harm it makes is avoidable. However the work necessary to make the world safe against it is so huge that sometimes when I think about it, I reach a point that I just let it go. The way is so long and so uncertain. By the way, we can take small steps. One day we will reach the point that we can live with the Dragon in peace. For now I just can pray for the people in Peru and I can end some helps.

If you are living in one of the risky areas in the world be watchfull. My beloved country Iran seems all red in the map. This shake my bones. If you know persian take a look at this documentary about risk of earthquake in Tehran. Frightening but awaring.

CSPG Convention 2007, Flow of knowledge, opportunity for networking and plenty of gifts

Things went well at CSPG/CSEG annual convention 2007. There were lots of speeches which some of them were really excellent. Also there was a good opportunity to expand the professional network. And finally in the exhibition hall, many companies were presenting latest technologies for audiences. Also, there were plenty of gifts, food and coffee to make this event plausible and joyful.
Thanks to sponsors and people who managed it.
