Child Foundation responds to accusations

Now that our long and arduous legal wrangling with the US government is over, we need you more than before. Though the settlement allows us to continue our operation, we have many challenges ahead of us. As ever, our first priority is to continue to provide life-saving assistance to nearly 3000 children in Iran and beyond. In addition, we must continue to fulfill our duty to donors who rely on and trust the Child Foundation to ensure donor dollars reach the children>>>

How to be Iranian

It's not easy

10-Jan-2011 (56 comments)
Iranians, or Persians, as we often like to be called, are complicated people. Achieving the status of being Iranian is not an easy task, but with much dedication and a strong liver, it can be done. Also, let me say now that there are basically only two types of Iranians, the first generation, and the second generation, since there were no Iranians in this country prior to 1979 (citation needed). These two generations are very different in nature, and it seems that the second generation is determined to undo the good name the first generation has created for itself>>>

پوپک و مش ماشالله

کمدی رومانتیک و مردم پسند و "میلیاردی" که در روز اول نمایش رکورد فروش گیشه را شکست

"فيلمنامه‌نويس و كارگردان فقط روي اين نكته زوم مي‌كنند كه مش ماشاالله به عنوان نماد يك مرد پايبند به اصول دينداري و محرم و نامحرم، مردي است ساده لوح، بداخلاق و تندخو، كم‌سواد، سنت‌گراي افراطي و بيگانه با تكنولوژي و تمامي مظاهر مدرنيته، ناتوان از ابراز احساسات عاطفي و كمبود اعتماد به نفس. همه اين كاستي‌ها نيز فقط به خاطر اين است كه او به اصل محرم و نامحرم اعتقاد دارد>>>

Some people like to use the expression, “It’s a small world”, but I prefer the one that says, “The world is round, who knows when we’ll meet again?” I can’t decide why I like this better, maybe because of its indication to an active world rather than shrinking it in size. I recently came to experience this and am amazed at how connected the world is. Years ago, after I had I read Digging to America by Ann Tyler, I wrote a review for it in the Iranian>>>
