Unsigned Copy of Farah Pahlavi's Memoirs Commemorating the third anniversary of Princess Leila' death Reza Bayegan I went through the wrought iron gates of the Passy cemetery in Paris on Saturday 12 June, just before 3 o'clock in the afternoon to attend the service held to commemorate the third anniversary of Princess Leila's death.
21st of March labeled as the Baha'i New Year!? For the past year I have been working with Amnesty International and I was somewhat surprised to look on our calendar this year and find the 21st of March labeled as the Baha'i New Year.
A response to the article "21st of March labeled as the Baha'i New Year!" Shadan Tofighi March 21st had been declared by Baha’u’llah the Prophet founder of the Baha'i Faith in mid 1880s. The Baha'i calendar is devised of 19 months of 19 days each. 4 days (5 in a leap year) remaining days of celebration complete a solar cycle of 365 days. ?

Reza Bayegan I said Goodbye to an Iranian relative who had come to visit me from Italy at Paris's Bercy station before attending Reza Pahlavi's panel discussion at Science3s-po, one of France's elite academic institutions. As he was embarking his train he held my hand and said: "let me know what happens at the meeting."
Journals of a Disqualified Citizen Reza Bayegan It is 3 May, and what better a way to start the day than by reading a long letter written by Seyyed Mohammad Khatami, President of the Islamic Republic of Iran. He has called it "A Letter for Tomorrow" meaning that today's electorate and the current population of Iran lack the qualifications to fathom the depth of meaning stashed way in its luminous pages. It will have to wait for the people of tomorrow to catch up with the President's intellectual depth and realize that his apparent failures were veritable triumphs in disguise.
Nicholas D. Kristof If, as the poet Philip Larkin observed,
sex began in 1963, it has finally reached Iran over the last year. True,
girls and women can still be imprisoned for going out without proper
Islamic dress. But young people are completely redefining such dress so
it heightens sex appeal instead of smothering it.

What happened to our revolution Amil Imani The 20th century has been one of tyranny and mass genocide. One needs only to remember the two million Cambodians slaughtered under Pol Pot, the six million Jews exterminated by Adolf Hitler, 2 Million Armenians murdered by the Turks, and the 20 million helpless lives aborted in America.
Farah Pahlavi's An Enduring Love Reza Bayegan May 13, 2004 Farah Pahlavi's An Enduring Love was an immediate bestseller in Europe and has received plenty of attention in the United States. The book's release has presented a fresh opportunity for those interested in modern Iranian history to revaluate the record of the Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and the challenges he faced during his reign.
Shenaakht-e Miraas-e Farhangi-e Iraniaan A review by: Dr. Jalil Doostkhah (Persian)
Cyrus Doost The novel makes you feel rightfully proud to be Iranian. It exposes the Mullahcracy for the aberration that it is. The Mullah Conspiracy is a work of fiction by an Iranian professor of psychology.
I have a friend who must be the sweetest, shyest person in the world. His name is brittle and ancient (Luke), his age modestly intermediate (forty). He is rather short and skinny, has a thin moustache and even thinner hair on his head. Since his vision is not perfect, he wears glasses: they are small, round and frame-less.

The concept and the roots
While in ancient times, people were frequently called on to die for their beliefs, it was generally just referred to as "dying." Heaven and Hell were not advanced concepts in the pre-Christian world, at least not in terms of a potential reward or punishment for your behavior on Earth.

General De Gaulle, the man who was determined to win By 1944, de Gaulle was widely recognized as political leader of the Resistance movement. In June 1944 he transformed the Committee of National Liberation into a provisional government of the French republic. Although he was not permitted to land on D-Day, he arrived on French soil a week later on June 14 and on August 25 he entered Paris in triumph.
Oscar Wilde's 1895 martyrdom for 'indecent acts' When Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest: a trivial comedy for serious people premiered in London on Valentine's Day, 1895, Wilde (aged 40) was widely acknowledged to have decisively conquered the theater world...Even the New York Times noted "Wilde may be said to have at last, and by a single stroke, put his enemies under his feet."

World premiere! Made in Chicago, this imaginative docudrama begins with the premise that three American women will engage in the activities of a normal work day wearing a burqa. The three are Chezere, an African American singer with a day job in an antique mall; Maya, a flamenco dancer who teaches her art on the side; and Renee, a painter who works at a TV station. Each faces challenges that range from the sheer discomfort of the unwieldy garment to the less-than-amused reactions of bosses, co-workers, and friends. In exploring the lives of the three, Khandan and Yazdani go beyond the shock value of the stunt to explore the repercussions of cultural differences less visible to the naked eye. DigiBeta video.
