Maybe in ten or 15 years Iran will be able to win a lot of medals in the Winter games, men and women. You have certainly the potential and higher mountains than over here.<br /><br />To Id<br />Your "rosy-white" comment. I had that impression while reading posts and comments on a blog "born-again redneck", during your election period. I'll keep in mind what you are saying.<br /><br />Pour Viviane<br />Merci, ma chère.<br /><br />To Betmo<br />I looked a lot at those snow boarders, too. To carry out those jumps one needs more than normal courage. And the ski cross, performed on the same plot, seemed like a suicide mission. As to the journalists, have a look at this add-on. Very funny, at least I hope so.Georghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05379915142029115257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4646820528696373193.post-7973042721477295142010-03-03T23:52:26.324+01:002010-03-03T23:52:26.324+01:00i found myself irritated with the 'talking hea...i found myself irritated with the 'talking heads' too- you would think that at the very least they could speak english if it's their first language! good god! i also found myself irritated that the press seemed to focus so much on the 'beautiful' athletes like vonn- not my favorite although i am american. give me the snow boarder girl who is less attractive but volunteers her time helping the less fortunate in kenya over the egotistic barbie doll vonn any day.<br /><br />incidentally, i rooted for canada more than america- except for short track skating- and hamelin skated superbly. i just have a thing for apolo ohno ;) bonjour!!!! by the way... :)billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16206096509976316141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4646820528696373193.post-2430260868254740582010-02-28T16:46:15.230+01:002010-02-28T16:46:15.230+01:00Je te souhaite une bonne fin de journée

This is a sport channel in Iran but I couldn't find anything about winter Olympic, maybe some news only but nothing else. I remember when I was in Iran national TV used to cover some part of the summer Olympic. Inside Iran only few percentage who has satellite are able to watch this event now.<br />about "traditional" it's hard to say, I know in Tehran most of young girls even from traditional family likes to wear mantu, but I have no statistic for this :)<br /><br />Germany 23 medals, they are tie with US now ::D<br />CheerssHivahttp://book-of-life-chapter-three.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4646820528696373193.post-16404103530960554772010-02-24T09:34:24.197+01:002010-02-24T09:34:24.197+01:00Bonjour Hiva,

What I would have liked to know is precisely which competitions are shown and which are not.<br /><br />As to the Iranian woman skier, I have found her on YouTube. Unfortunately, she was only interviewed. Interesting nevertheless.<br /><br />Thanks, too, for explaining scarf and mantu and traditional women. It might be interesting to know how many are "traditional".<br /><br />GeorgGeorghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05379915142029115257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4646820528696373193.post-25052062028426067582010-02-22T22:49:22.407+01:002010-02-22T22:49:22.407+01:00George,

I loved the German's outfit at the opening ceremony the most. Canada right now has a 5th place but I hope they could catch up for 3rd.<br /><br />There is one Iranian girl in Alpine slalom I am looking forward to see her. I know how hard it must be for her to make it up to here.<br />Actually Iran national tv show Olympic events, but not full coverage. <br /><br />and last point in Iran rarely you'll find any women with veil and mostly traditional women wear the black curtain (called Chador) which is encouraged by the Islamic regim . Young girls and non-traditional woman wear scarf and mantu which you can see by google "iranian girl" for example.<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of the Olympic :DHivahttp://book-of-life-chapter-three.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
