Inimitable peculiarity of Cuba Translation part 1
Non-stop flight Moscow-Varadero took about 12 hours, at least it seems so.
More than half of a flight I was asleep, for it is utterly comfortable to sleep in business class of Transairo: though wide chairs can’t lay out horizontally, nevertheless do it substantially.
We got our pillows, blankets, and players with movies and music, and also big flight kit: from earplug to combs, from slippers to shoehorn.
We had a variety of food and drinks: meat, salads, fruit, alcohol from Martini to Whiskey.
Everything was included in any quantity, which was rejoicing.
At this time (now is february) climate on Cuba is very comfortable.
Not so wet as in Thailand, and not so scorching and unclouded as in Egypt.
I was here for two weeks already and the rain was here only once.

Registration On Couchsuring
Yesterday morning I was trying to complete my registration on couchsurfing. But I could not, because the verification email wasn't sent to me. After I press resend button I didn't receive a verification email.
I guess they have problems or it's just gmail is messing with me.

I'm back :_)
Hello everyone. I didn't visit this website for a while. Because I was concentrating on learning how to setup an internet store and I was learning about CMS and e-commerce solutions. Eventually I had setup an opencart for my store. So I'm satisfied with this and I'm moving on to reach my goal of perfect English ^_^
Recently I bought a cube (rubik's cube). So far I didn't solve the cube. It's seems as impossible task, but I have to do this on my own so I didn't look at any hints. Otherwise I woudn't be a true cuber. I think people who solved cube on their own are true cubers. Did you solve the cube on your own?
(When I was a child I didn't have a cube).

It was a burglary gone sour
- We believe it was a burglary gone sour. She walked in, she surprised him, he panicked. ( It was a cop who said this)
- No, no, no. This was no burglary.
- It wasn't?
- He tried to make it look like one, but this guy was cold as ice.
This is a scene from on episode of TV series "Monk". I didn't understand the phrase "it was a burglary gone SOUR".
I looked at the dictitionary and the defentition for SOUR was this:
feeling or expressing resentment, dissappointment, or anger.
Does this mean that cop though it was simply a fight over feelings of angry and man killed that woman because of accident. You know when someone has a fight and punch another hi didn't want to kill but he killed. Does cop thought so?

To provide - what does that mean?
Harvey said that I could join this special, advanced course provided one thing -- that I would do all the work and report on paper just like everybody else.
This is example from the book "Surely, you're joking mr. Feynman". And I cannnot understand correctly the word PROVIDED.
It seems like "provided" is an ultimatum. I will let you come to the course if you would do all the work.
And guys it will be interesting to me if you give me some examples of the verb "to provide". How you use it on a daily basis? And what the last time you use this word, heard or read? In what situations?
P.S. correct me : ))

I need some questions for the dialog.
Hi there. I think to learn english by using question and answer is a very effective way. I have an example:
Sara Smith, who lives in San Francisco, went shopping for cat food.
Sara is 30, and lives at 3037 Market St. She has lived there since 1990. Sara is married. She is married to a man named John. She has been married for 7 years.
They have two children, and one very big cat. Their son Bob is five years old and their daughter Nancy is three. Their cat, Bubba, is 2 years old. Bubba is huge. He weighs 258 pounds (117 kilos)!
And now question and answers for this text:
How old is Sarah? Well, she’s 30.Where does Sarah live? She lives in San Francisco at 3037 Market Street. Why Sarra went to shopping. She went shopping for cat food.
Etc.
And I need some question and answer for dialog from sitcom "Friends". I hope you can help me.
Dialog:
Ph - Phoebe
J - Joey
Ph: So how is this for our big double date tonight?
Jo: Oh, my God.
Ph: Great. Just the reaction I was hoping for.
Jo: Yeah, so you found someone for me? You didn't forget?
Ph: Of course not.
Ph: And you'll love Mary Ellen. She's really smart and cute and funny and.. I can't tell you how I know this, but she is not opposed to threesomes.
Jo: All right.
Ph: So tell me something about my guy.
Jo: No.
Ph: Come on, give me some. What's his name?
Jo: I'm not sure I understand the question.
Ph: What do they call him?
Jo: Mike.
Ph: Mike. Okay, what's his last name?
Jo: Damn it! Is there no mystery left in romance anymore?!
Ph: We'll see you and Mike at the restaurant in a couple hours.
Jo: All right, great. See you. Bye-bye. Why'd (why did) I have to say Mike? I don't know Mike! Why couldn't I have said..? There's no guys in there!
Thanks.
