Manners in jogging

What do u do when u meet somebody u know while jogging?

Imagine u are out jogging and in front of u at around 100m u see somebody u know, who is coming towards u, also jogging. How do u react? What do u do?
Salute? He/She is still too far to say something. U cannot shout cause u r running so u cannot do both at the same time.
U smile? For how long?! Will the other one see u?
U stare? Stare like.. an idiot?! For how long?!
The first 50m u can pretend either u didnt see him/her, u got distracted by some ppl walking their dogs or u look down in the idea that u were trying to avoid stepping in some dog sh.. ( she/he will understand!! )
If u decide to wait till u get closer to him/her and then start a sentence what sentence do u choose?!
'Hey. Going home already?' 'Hey, almost finished? I started later today/ Couldnt wake up earlier.' 'Hey. When did u get here?' 'Hey, still doing some laps? How many?'....... Anything u might choose will sound silly. And anyhow u 'force' also the other one to say something, so also his/her training is ruined.
Besides that u might not finish the sentence and need either to slow down, which isn't recommended cause u should keep the same pace otherwise u get tired, or to keep on running but turning a little to finish the sentence.
.. or wave? wave and smile? ..for some seconds when u are at 50m away from the other one and then look straight ahead and continue jogging.. ?!

Din colectia.. lucruri utile

Am fost si eu ca totul omul, ca e trendy, WE-ul trecut la Ikea, a 4-a oara cand pun piciorul in acest hipermarket. Vroiam sa imi cumpar o lampa pentru ca in camera mea nu prea e lumina in timpul zilei si acum ca stau 2 zile pe sapt akas vreau si eu sa am impresia ca e zi afara.
Si ce mai vroiam sa imi cumpar.. ahh.. un termos ca pliculetzele de ceaiuri de mi le-am adus din Londra de revelion (ahh am fost acolo, chiar tre sa povestesc.. well, cand timp pentru asha ceva?!) nu merita irosite pe o canutza de juma de litru.
Ahh si un ghiveci mic pentru planta de am 'ciordit-o' (dar era in scara blocului si avea destule subramurele.. nu o sa se simta!!) o sapt in urma. Cum nu am gasit la Ikea un ghiveci minuscul am tras o fuga si la Bauhaus-ul de langa. Acolo peste ce dau? Peste aceasta tanti. Tanti?! Hmm..puei tanti ar trebui sa fie ca sablonul se cam potriveste. Dar pretzul?!?!?! sau numele?! 169€ Schwimmerin. Deci toti in cor: schwimmerin?!?!?!
Si deci intrebarea ce m-a izbit in momentul acela a fost: la ce..se foloseste?



Apropos a fost prima oara cand mi-am cumparat si eu ceva de acolo. Da!! Spre mirarea multora, pot sa ies din magazin si fara sa cumpar ceva. Ahh primele dati parca am mancat ceva pe acolo. Bunicica mancarea, dar obsesia mea pentru mancare sanatoasa ma impiedica sa ma entuziasmez mai mult.

Auf der Suche nach..

Wie kann man Mathematik / Informatik / Neue Medien u. Technologien ( ...3D Animation... ) mit interkulturellen Kommunikation verbinden ?

Hilfeeeeeeee..............

[later edit:
"Welche Rolle können die neuen Medien in interkultureller Kommunikation spielen?"
"Wie kann Informatik zur Entwicklung der interkulturellen Kommunikation benutzt werden?
"Intercultural communication needs a support to allow the different parties to converse. When the network expands, an organized logic ( math ) is needed"

bla bla bla.. ein Mathematiker braucht etwas Konkretes!!!
