Pen Pal - Definition Of Pen Pal In Encyclopedia pen pals (or penpals or pen friends) are people who regularly write each other, General, Encyclopedia, Legal, Medical, Computer, science, Law Forum http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/pen_pal
Extractions: Pen pals (or penpals or pen friends ) are people who regularly write each other, in particular in the case of snail mail . A penpal relationship is often used to practice writing and reading in a foreign language, improving literacy , to learn more about other countries and life-styles, and just to reach out and communicate with a fellow human being. Some people remain penpals for only a short time, while others continue to exchange letters and presents life-long. Some penpals eventually arrange to meet in 'real-life'. Penpals come in all ages, nationalities and cultures. Being part of a penpal network can be a way to gain a valuable understanding of the world, and an appreciation for cultures and lifestyles very different to your own. Many people writing to a penpal are not using their native language in their letters. A modern variation on the traditional penpal arrangement is to have a keypal and exchange email addresses as well as or instead of paper letters. This has the advantage of saving money, but also the disadvantage that the communication is very ephemeral. Many people prefer to receive paper letters, gaining the satisfaction of seeing their name carefully printed on a thick envelope in the letterbox. Using

'Velvet' change in Czech schools LHENICE, CZECH REPUBLIC - The fall apple, pear, and plum harvests are stored away for the long Central European winter. Fields are fallow. And that means Czech children have headed back to a school year in which they'll celebrate a special landmark: the 10th anniversary of the country's Velvet Revolution, when Czechs overthrew Communist leaders without widespread violence. "This year, the students are preparing special celebrations for the anniversary," says Karel Bican, principal of the Zakladni Skola Lhenice. In the decade since the Communist retreat, this town nestled in the Sumava foothills has carried out dramatic social, political and economic reforms. But schools have been host to some of the country's most striking changes.

They are both working mothers, but their worlds are divided by hostility, politics, culture and religion. BBC Arabic.com has asked Omneya and Orly to exchange their views, via e-mail, on life, the prospects for Middle East peace and everything. Read the exchanges and send us your comments. Hi Omneya, I guess it is as strange for you to receive a letter from a total stranger, as it is for me to write one. Maybe the best thing to do is start with the basic facts. My name is Orly, I'm 33 years old, married with two little girls, ages four and a half and one. I live in Jerusalem, and work as a producer at a new Israeli-Palestinian radio station which will go on air in about three weeks. I am also studying for my second degree in Middle East studies at the Hebrew University. As I write this letter it occurs to me how weird it is that two geographical neighbours like us would never have known about each other without the intervention of a third, distant party.
