Iran NGOs
"In February 1998, the Family Planning Association of the Islamic
Republic of Iran (FPA) and the Population Council, supported by the World
Health Organization, hosted a ground-breaking meeting of Iranian Non Governmental
Organizations (NGOs) and officials from the Iranian government and international
organizations. Encouraged by Iran's new focus on the development of civil
society, the 50 participants discussed the role NGOs could play in Iran
in the coming years, as well as the issues and challenges they face."

Rock-concert poster art bloomed during the heyday of Haight-Ashbury,
and has since shattered into hundreds of distinct visions, from the horror-show
cartoonery of Frank Kozik to the gothic illustrations of Derek Hess. This
fine collection of over 1,200 posters features some of the top names in
rock art, as well as dozens of buzzing message boards.
