    Why Does this Fish Have Gin-Clear Blood? - I found this interesting: Here is the article & a picture Article Link: http://news.yahoo.com/why-does-fish-gin-clear-blood-134434131.html Article: Every animal with bones has blood with hemoglobin, which binds with oxygen and makes the blood appear red. Every animal, that is, except one. The ocellated icefish (Chionodraco rastrospinosus) has gin-clear blood. And it has no scales. And it lives nowhere but the inky depths down to 3,200 feet (1 kilometer) in the icy waters off Antarctica. Other than that, it's just an ordinary fish. The Tokyo Sea Life Park is the only place with ocellated icefish in captivity, Agence France-Presse reports. "Luckily, we have a male and a female, and they spawned in January," Satoshi Tada, an education specialist at the center, told AFP. The ocean's depths are rich with odd sea life, from giant squid to translucent sea anemones. Researchers now believe life around deep-sea vents may have arisen following the last mass extinction on Earth 65 million years ago, after a giant meteor impact killed off dinosaurs and other animals. Scientists hope the mated pair of icefish and their offspring in Tokyo will help researchers unlock the secrets of how the fish manages to survive without hemoglobin to carry oxygen to its cells. It's possible, some scientists speculate, that the icefish's unusually large heart might help move oxygen through its body using blood plasma instead of hemoglobin. Also, with no scales to get in the way, the icefish may absorb some oxygen directly through its skin: Cold, polar water is richer in oxygen than warmer waters. But the mystery surrounding the icefish's lack of hemoglobin may take years to solve. "More studies are needed on the question," Tada said.

    Santa's Iranian Reletives!!!! Traditional Stories about Nowruz (Iranian New Year)

    Iranians have several traditions and customs dating back thousands of years ago. that date back to thousands of years ago. However, after the Islamic revolution of Iran, Iranian traditions are have beendying out one by one. What I'd like to do is to keep our traditions alive, and introduce them to other people around the world. That is the only thing I can do to revive our customs.

    Nowruz (Iranian New Year) has three mythical characters in Iranian folklore. On the eve of the spring equinox, when the Persian New Year is celebrated, Amoo Nowruz brings children gifts, much like his Western counterpart Santa Claus. Amoo Nowruz is an old man who has a long white beard, telling stories for to children, passing the old story of Nowruz to the young, and giving children gifts like Santa. He accompanies with Haji Firuz, a young man, who wears a red costume, and his face is painted black (black is an ancient Persian symbol of good luck). He sings and dances with tambourines and trumpets, spreading good cheer and heralds the coming of the New Year. The sound of his songs and the sight of his dance are often analogous to hearing Christmas music in a shopping mall, telling all that Nowruz is in the air. Along with Amoo Norooz and Haji Firooz, the Persian New Year mythical characters include Naneh Sarma, sometimes called Lady of the Cold Spells, or Grandma Frost. In the legend of Nowruz, it is narrated that Nane Sarma (Lady of the Cold Spells, or Grandma Frost) is an old woman who falls in love with Amoo Nowruz. There is a beautiful love story between Nane Sarma and Amoo Nowruz. Each year, she is awaiting Amoo Nowruz to come but she falls asleep and never can see him.

     

    Beautiful Story! :)

    the Countdown to Nowruz (Iranian New Year)

    Less than 20 hours left until Nowruz (Iranian New Year). I set the Haft-sin table in my room, and I'm awaiting the new year.waiting for the new year. The Haft-sin table setting includes seven items all starting with the letter "s" (Haft in Farsi means seven and Sin"س" is the letter "s"). We put colored eggs, mirrors, candles, and goldfish in on the Haft-sin table as well. Each item on the table refers to the seven Zoroastrian immortals that guarded the sky, waters, earth, fire, plants, animals, and humans in ancient Iran.

    Grass (Sabzeh: سبزه) is a symbol of rebirth.
    Apple (Sib: سیب) is a symbol of beauty and health.

    Garlic (Sir: سیر) symbolizes medicine.
    Samanu (سمنو) is a sweet pudding made from wheat germ. It is a symbol of affluence.

    Somaq (سماق) is Somaq fruits, and symbolizes (the color of) sunrise.
    Senjed (سنجد) is a dried Oleaster fruit and a symbol of love.

    Vinegar (Serkeh: سرکه) symbolizes old-age and patience.


    On the table, a mirror is placed for the reflection of life. LITlit candles are placed in front of mirror and they are a symbol of fire. Colored eggs are a symbol of fertility (Sometimes one, for each member of the family). A bowl of water with a goldfish means life within life, and the sign of Pisces, which is where the sun is leaving (or to mark the the passage from Pisces to Aries).

    I took a photo from the grass I grew this year. I'll post the picture of my Haft-sin table another time.

    Happy new year to all! Have a happy, prosperous, and healthy year filled with successful, wealth, and unexpecting blessings.

     

    Wow! Incredible story about Iran's New Year. :) Beautifully written :)
