I hate gossipers and slanderers!!! Do you??

slander:(noun, verb tr.)
1. (Law) Oral communication of false statements injurious to a person's reputation.
2. A false and malicious statement or report about someone.

I think this short explanation on what this term means is ENOUGH...

You can send me and share the examples of gossiping and slandering which are so HARMFUL and DESTRUCTIVE. I wonder if there is anybody who likes that.

SO ; One should not treat others in ways that one would not like to be treated. This rule really works..

Greetings to those who try to avoid gossiping and slandering.

Yours always,
Sensei.

TACHIYOMI ( 立ち読み ) - 2

Hello Everybody,

When you fly or use other vehicles to a place for any reasons, you might immediately notice that those who read the most are Japanese, Americans and Europeans. The rest, which is from the third group,is not worth of mentioning.( Especially trash reading people...)

Reading level can be measured by paper consuming. Let's have a look at the amount of paper per-capita in some countries:

Units: kilograms/person/year 2005

Finland FIN 324.97
United States USA 297.05
Japan JPN 233.55
Germany DEU 231.65
Netherlands NLD 227.38
Sweden SWE 219.98
Italy ITA 205.71
United Kingdom GBR 201.20
Malaysia MYS 114.78
Greece GRC 105.29
South Africa ZAF 69.01
Saudi Arabia SAU 41.80
Turkey TUR 27.30

The average European uses 130 kilos of paper a year-the equivalent of two trees. The average American uses more than twice as much - a staggering 330 kilos a year.(297.05 kg in 2005)

What do these figures show us??? I hope you grasp the importance of reading...
Of course, I do not imply that wasting is a nice thing!!! Never waste anything!

I appreciate your valuable comments. Thanks a lot.
See You.

TACHIYOMI ( 立ち読み ) - 1

Hello Everybody,

People can be divided into two extraordinarily beautiful groups:
1)Those who know and
2)Those who learn.

In order to know and learn, one must read on any occasions and value the time given to him/her. I have just come across a very nice word and wanted to share it with YOU. (Perhaps you know it.)

In Japanese, TACHIYOMI ( 立ち読み )means "reading while standing". You know "time flies" and "never comes back". The thing urging me to write this is some "statistics on reading times". Nations who read more are at places they deserve. So, I wish everybody good and effective readings...

As for the third part of the people, I leave it to your imagination for the time being. Perhaps later I can talk about that. (to be continued).
See you.
