Menorca Bàsquet
Menorca Bàsquet became the first team coming from the Balear islands that will play the ACB (spanish first division basketball league), after leading 3-0 in the semi-finals of the LEB (second division) against León Caja España. They won the last game 69-73. I hope they will be able to stay during a few years in ACB.
You’ll Never Walk Alone
When you walk through a storm,
Hold you head up high,
And don’t be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm,
There’s a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of the lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tough your dreams be tossed and blown…
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone…
You’ll never walk alone.
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone…
You’ll never walk alone…

The Animation Podcast
The Animation Podcast – The voices of Animation
My goal in making The Animation Podcast is to present today’s voices in animation in their own words to create an audible record that is hopefully a source of knowledge, insight, and inspiration for me as well as you.

This is such a nice idea… You could already listen to an interview with Disney animator Andreas Deja.
siyah-beyaz
yağmurlu bir günde görmüştüm seni
üstünde çubuklu formalar vardı
bir anda vuruldum aşık oldum ben
hayatın anlamı siyah beyazdı
ölümle yaşamı ayıran çizgi
siyahla beyazi ayıramaz ki
her yolun sonunda ölüm olsada
sevenleri kimse ayiramaz ki
World’s oldest animation
World’s oldest animation that was discovered in Iran would be presented during the International Animated Film Association (ASIFA) meeting that will be held in Seoul this August.
Last december a bowl with an animated picture of a goat drawn around it was discovered by a team of Iranian archeologists during some excavations realised at the 5000 year old Burnt City.

Barcelona Day of Book and Rose, Sant Jordi
Tomorrow, 23rd of April is the longly awaited day of Book and Rose, St. George’s Day (Dia de Sant Jordi). Although the streets of Barcelona are used to bring joy to visitors, during Sant Jordi feast all the elements that form the city come together magically. It is my favourite day. (It is not only because I like receiving a nice book as a present!)
Every single corner of Barcelona is converted into small and attractive market-places where books and roses are the only merchandise that worth considering. People converge in front of those spontaneous and colourful florists, book stores and hoping to find “that” rose or book to present to their beloveds. (Woman receive a nice red rose while they present a book ..) What a nice occasion to show love and affection : exchanging words and flowers.
It is also a good moment for publishers and writers that hope to present their recent works and promote the older ones. We should not forget the florists neither. Nearly 4 million roses and 400,000 books are in question.
Besides, lots of other activities like expositions, conferences are organised in order to feed the book worms and “serious” intellectuals who are not satisfied with what is going on and might say that this is a marketing trick.
As 2005 is celebrated as the year of reading and books in Barcelona, those activities are held all along the year and not concentrated. 400th anniversary of the first publication of Don Quijote de la Mancha of Miguel de Cervantes is one of the main leitmotifs.
When we learn a bit more on what Book and Rose day is all about, the tribute to Cervantes would make more sense:
It is named after St. George who is the patron of Barcelona. According to the legend, St.George bravely saves a young and beautiful lady who was about to be gulped by a huge and terrible dragon! Where dragon died bleeding, suddenly appears a bush of rose. St.George who is a real “caballero” picks a rose and presents it to the young and beautiful lady… This legend seem to justify half of the story and until 1920s it was celebrated as the feast of the city and the Rose day.
The second part of the story is about some other caballeros who were using words instead of swords: two genious, William Shakespeare and Miguel de Cervantes happen to die the same day: April 23, 1616. This motivated some to conmemorate their death in combination with the Sant Jordi day and it leaded until UNESCO adopted 23rd of April as World Book and Copyright Day in 1990s.
So… briefly, it is a perfect day to be in Barcelona. It is just like being in Paris any 21st of June when there is “la fête de la musique” that converts the city into a huge music box!
