Me three

Future U.S. President, maybe?

https://www.thoughtco.com/which-presidents-were-left-handed-105445

 

"What is perhaps most noteworthy about left-handed presidents is how many there have been in recent decades. Of the last 15 presidents, seven (about 47%) have been left-handed. That might not mean much until you consider that the global percentage of left-handed people is about 10%. So among the general population, only one in ten people are left-handed, while in the modern-era White House, almost one in two have been left-handed".

I have taken the necessary steps to set me up for a future in politics, but that’s last go to.

Again: there's not much to say but good luck, and also thanks for the small insights in the situation which are otherwise rather hard to get..

 

the whole idea of the internet shutdown was to not let people contact each other and plan for organized protests. so I really don't know much about other cities/provinces , I mean confirmed news, rumors are everywhere. I live in a big city 20 minutes away from Tehran, since I work in Tehran beside my own town I only know about the capital which was relatively quiet. (mostly because middle class people weren't much involved in these protests) but we hear some horrific not-confirmed news. specially about Kurdish and Arabic speaking provinces. I'm sure more news and videos will come out soon in next few days. one thing is for sure the death toll is much higher than 106 reported by amnesty international. 200 or 300 maybe. :cry:

 

and I don't think luck alone can do much, people here are facing devil from both inside and outside of the country. :(

I have to learn the Latin language , anyone speak it here ? 

 

Marcus et Cornelia in horto ambulant. Cornelia subito serpentem videt et clamat: "Marce! Marce!" Marcus rogat: "Quid est, Cornelia? Cur clamas?"

 

And so began the textbook we had for Latin at school. I think 'Marcus et Cornelia in horto ambulant' is arguably the most famous regular Latin sentence among students here :p

Plus a lot of people like you and me who just have some general knowledge :p
