Iran erupts in anger over Gaza tragedy

TEHRAN - Hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets across the country after Friday prayers to show their anger over the miserable conditions in the Gaza Strip.

About 1.5 million Gaza residents have been suffering as Israel have blocked all food, medicine and fuel shipments to the coastal territory. Iranian demonstrators blasted international bodies such as the UN, human rights organizations and the Islamic states especially Arab countries for failing to act in the face of Israel's inhumane behavior. Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami told worshipers in Tehran that the UN Human Rights Council was established to defend human rights. Criticizing the UN rights body for being inactive, he asked: “Are 1.5 million people in Gaza not humans? Releasing statements and expressing regret does not solve any problem, Khatami noted. The cleric called on 57-strong Organization of the Islamic Conference to mobilize Muslims against Zionists. Majlis speaker Ali Larijani who had joined the protestors along with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the silence of the Arab countries on the agonies of Palestinians would “hurt” these countries as he said political and religious activists are losing their patience over the inaction of their governments toward Israel. “If the leaders of these countries remain silent, they in a sense have expressed their illegitimacy,” Larijani told ISNA. Egypt as the only country which borders the Gaza Strip refuses to open its border to send relief aids to Gaza. Mostapha al-Savaf, the editor of the newspaper Palestine in Gaza, says the Cairo officials are not unhappy with what he called a “gradual execution” of 1.5 million Gazans in order to prevent the victory of Islamists in Egypt. Al-Savaf told the Mehr News Agency that the pressure on the people in Gaza is meant to force the Hamas movement to “soften” its position toward Israel. The intensification of the Gaza siege happened despite the fact that the Israeli President Shimon Peres participated in the UN Interfaith Dialogue conference on November 12-13 which was initiated by Saudi Arabia. Lebanese University professor Yassin Souyeh says, “All Arab regimes are acting in line with the interests of the usurper enemy (Israel) by keeping silence about the crimes” in the Gaza Strip. It seems that Arab leaders don’t like to “see” or even “hear” the “bitter realities” in the Gaza Strip, Souyeh told the MNA. The collective punishment of Palestinians began after they voted overwhelmingly for Hamas in democratic parliamentary election in January 2006. The Hamas government and Gaza residents came under pressure from all sides after the election. The European Union and the U.S. which always advise other countries on democracy and human rights also cut their financial help to Palestinians in order to depress Palestinians for electing Hamas as their government. Western countries claim Israel is the only democratic state in the Middle East which observes human rights. However, these countries closed their eyes to the sufferings of children and women in Gaza who suffer from the brutal measures of Israel. After the January 2006 election, the Fatah faction, led by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, also put extreme pressure on the Hamas government. Even an agreement by Hamas to form a unity cabinet with Fatah did not satisfy Fatah to lessen its pressure on Hamas. And finally the PA chief dismissed the government of Ismail Haniya. ------Zionist crimes aimed at manipulating Palestinian elections Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told reporters the recent crimes perpetrated by the Zionist regime are meant to manipulate the elections in Palestine. Abbas's term ends on January 9. However, the Fatah faction plans to postpone presidential elections until parliamentary election in January 2010. Hamas has warned that any extension of Abbas’ presidency will be illegal. Abbas has threatened to call snap elections in the new year if his Fatah party cannot resolve a fractious split with Hamas. Hamas has said that under the Palestinian constitution Abbas does not have the power to dissolve parliament before its term expires in January 2010. ------Israel on the road to extinction Ahmadinejad said that the disappearance of the Zionist regime is imminent. The Zionist regime has perpetrated its recent criminal acts as it is fully aware that the game is over and that it is on the road to extinction, Ahmadinejad predicted. “The Zionist regime has lost all its motivation and philosophy of existence so that all of the global powers and supporters have become uncertain of supporting this regime”, Ahmadinejad noted. He pointed out that the regime’s increasing attacks on the Gaza strip is just an effort to extend its term for some time.

Asian Mayors Forum in Milad tower(The fourth highest tower in world)

Asian mayors meet in Tehran

TEHRAN, Nov. 19 (MNA) - Tehran Mayor Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf announced on Wednesday that the Asian mayors meeting in Tehran is the beginning of efforts to establish more contacts between nations.
The first Asian Mayors Forum opened on Wednesday at Milad Tower. A total of 44 mayors from 33 Asian countries are participating in the conference. Representatives from the UN, the EU, the OIC, ECO, and many other international bodies are attending the conference.

“The Asian mayors’ warm welcome of the meeting is a sign of the desire of citizens to develop relations between nations,” Qalibaf told the participants.

The Tehran mayor said he is proud that he is hosting dignitaries and representatives from great Asian cities in the conference.

He said Tehran hosts many conferences and international exhibitions every year but the Asian mayors meeting is of particular importance, as it is expected that experiences exchanged in the meeting will help develop cooperation through the establishment of constructive and friendly relations between city managers with the aim of improving the standard of living throughout Asia.

“Today is a historic day for Asia. Many mayors and city officials from large Asian cities have gathered in Tehran at the Milad Tower, which is the symbol of modern Tehran, to reaffirm their commitment to make every effort to build a better future for Asian citizens and to develop a new path for cooperation in this rich and colorful continent,” Qalibaf added.
He expressed his appreciation to all the participants for attending the Tehran forum and also thanked Asian parliaments, especially the government and parliament of Iran, for their support for the Tehran Municipality’s initiative to hold the meeting.

Qalibaf said the Asian Mayors Forum is just a starting point and their efforts to improve the standard of living and promote shared Asian values will accelerate day by day.

He stated that meeting society’s demands requires a cooperative approach and that the nature of global developments leaves no room for unilateral moves.

Common objectives have made modern man seek peace, security, justice, equality, welfare, sustainable development, democracy, and the rule of law, Qalibaf said.

“City management in Asia can be based on collective wisdom and common local examples. The Asian Mayors Forum in Tehran is being held with the aim of opening a new dialogue for city management and interaction among Asian citizens,” he added.

The diverse challenges Asian cities are facing necessitate dialogue on efficient management, he said, noting that resolving problems requires innovation on the one hand and learning from successful experiences on the other hand.

The mayor of Tehran added that the rapid process of urbanization has drawn attention to ways to develop cities.

The issue of sustainable development of cities, which is discussed in many academic venues, is a strategy for creating equality between citizens and all future generations, and sustainable development means prosperity for people living in urban areas, he noted.

What makes Asia powerful, developed, and influential in the world is its integration in all issues related to urban life, he observed.

In light of such integration, Asia is able to have a positive influence on current events, Qalibaf added.

To develop their capacity, Asian megacities should prioritize improving infrastructure in all spheres, including tourism, the economy, and technology, he said.

He emphasized that achieving integration among governments requires integration among citizens.

The establishment of the Asian Mayors Forum will definitely help all the cities improve their urban management, the Tehran mayor said.

Qalibaf also stated that the Tehran Municipality is prepared to establish a secretariat for the Asian Mayors Forum in Tehran.

INTRODUCING THE PSYCHOLOGY OF HANDWRITING

Space is highly important for us. For example, when we speak, according to what we are saying and to how important the listener is, instintively we place within a well defined space, very close to the interlocutor, if we consider him as a friend and we’re talking confidentially, or on the contrary, more distant if we consider him a stranger we won’t give our confidence to.
The concept of “space” has no spoken rules but, however instinctive, these rules are universal, and everyone tends to defend their own “inner area” or “personal sphere”, that is the space immediately close to them.
It is easy to find an example of that. An empty bus gets to the bus stop where some people are waiting: they get into the bus and sit down... But nobody is close to someone else, but at least two-seat distant. At the next bust stop some other people take the bus and respecting one’s own space is no longer possible, because of the crowd; and so a diseased expression appears of people’s face, but they dominate this feeling because of circumstances.

MOVING IN THE SPACE AND PROJECTING IT ON A SHEET
In the same way, this idea of “space” is automatically reflected into all our actions putting ourselves in relationship with the others. Consequently, also when we write.
The sheet thus represents the available space for us and the graphic gesture reflects our way to move within this space. There are four symbolic directions on the sheet, we can act within, which is shown by the graphic gesture: high, low, right and left.
High: is related to ideal, to imagination, and in a wider way, to infinity. Since older times, man has placed highward his idealof elevation, of divine, considering the sky as the greatest symbol of spiriti and of ideal.
Low: is the symbol of the ground which, on the contrary, is something concrete, reliable, touchable, and this way it represents the matter, the common sense, and in a wider way, the dark preceeding the life, so the unconsciousness and the instinct.
Left is the area related to the past, the mother who gave us birth, our origin,
Right on the contrary stands for others, the future, the father

BASIC GRAPHIC SIGNS
An “ascending” handwriting shows initiative, ambition, aggressivity, optimism, a push to get oneself better and to change reality in a positive way. If it is too ascending, it indicates a detachment from reality, shifting into intrusiveness and nerve.
A “descending” handwriting shows a tendency to suffer environmental pressure, to accept others’ requests, to not take initiative. These people tend to be gloomy and to renounce.
An “adherent” handwriting shows the availability to cooperate with the environment, to be realistic, but not too enterprising, lacking in initiative.
Dimension: it concerns the width and the height of some letters measured inside the word (a-o-d-g-q).
Wide, narrow letters, expanded: when the width and the heigh of the eyelet are proportioned, there is the “wide letters” sign, which indicates a deep and rational intelligence, the capability to elaborate ideas, mental concentration, deep feelings, scientific abilities.
If the height is greater than the width, there is the “narrow letters” sign, which indicates sharp but instinctive and superficial intuition, lack of deepening, little tendency toward science, interest for politics, easily bothering, need of stimuli and intense sensations.
On the other hand, if the height is lesser than the width, there is the “expanded” sign, which indicates an introverted temper and tendency to fancy.
The “small” and the “large” handwriting: the height of handwriting ranges between 8 and 120 dmm. A “small” handwriting indicates capability to observe, bright intelligence, intese attention, easly memorized details, respect for others’ personality. If it is too small, though, it projects an inferiority complex due to the feeling of being a lesser right subject.
The “large” handwriting indicates the incapability to observe in details, tendnecy to evaluate situations as a whole, lack in sesne of duty and dependence upon others’ judgement and critics.
The “fluctuating” hadwriting projects instability in emotions, shifting moods, fluctuation between safety and depression, the tendency to work according to the mood of the moment, and it also indicates a disposition toward musical and theatrical interpretation.
The “reducing” handwriting shows a progressively small word. It is a rare sign, revealing the tendency to depression.

حجاب..................... Hijab

Many Muslims around the world practice hijab, which is Arabic for cover, but is extended to mean modesty and privacy. For non-Muslims, hijab is most often associated with the modest clothing that Muslim women wear. In actuality, hijab is practiced by both men and women, and includes other requirements of modest behavior. Muslims follow the rules of hijab to show their submission to and love for God.

And say: "So patiently persevere: for verily the promise of God is true." [30;60]

The Past is gone forever, Today is all you have

The Past is gone:

By brooding over the past and its tragedies, one evinces a form of insanity - a kind of sickness that destroys resolve to live for the present moment. Those who have a firm purpose have filed away and forgotten occurrences of the past, which will never see the light again, since they occupy such a dark place in the recesses of the mind. Episodes of the past are finished with; sadness cannot retrieve them, melancholy cannot make things right, and depression will never bring the past back to life. This is because the past is non-existent. Do not live in the nightmares of former times or under the shade of what you have missed. Save yourself from the ghostly apparition of the past. Do you think that you can return the sun to its place of rising, the baby to its mother’s womb, milk to the udder, or tears to the eye? By constantly dwelling on the past and its happenings, you place yourself in a very frightful and tragic state of mind. Reading too much into the past is a waste of the present. When Allah mentioned the affairs of the previous nations, He said: "That was a nation who has passed away."[Surah al-Baqarah; 2:134]Our tragedy is that we are incapable of dealing with the present: neglecting our beautiful castles, we wail over dilapidated buildings. If every man and every jinn were to try jointly to bring back the past, they would fail because that is an impossibility. Everything on earth marches forward, preparing for a new season and so should you.

Today is all you have :

When you wake up in the morning do not expect to see the evening - live as though today is all that you have. Yesterday has passed with its good and evil, while tomorrow has not yet arrived. Your life’s span is but one day, as if you were born in it and will die at the end of it. With this attitude, you will not be caught between an obsession over the past, with all its anxieties, and the hopes of the future, with all its uncertainty. For today only should you expend energies, concerns, and efforts. In this day you should pray with a wakeful heart, recite the Qur’an with understanding, and remember Allah with sincerity. In this day you should be balanced in your affairs, satisfied with your allotted portion, concerned with your appearance and health.Organise the hours of this day, so that you make years out of minutes and months out of seconds. Seek forgiveness from your Lord, remember Him, prepare for the final parting from this world, and live today happily and at peace. Be content with your sustenance, your wife, your children, your work, your house and your station in life."So hold that which I have given you and be of the grateful."[Surah Al-A’raf; Ayah 144]Live today free from sorrow, bother, anger, jealousy, and malice.You must engrave onto your heart one phrase: Today is my only day. If you have eaten warm, fresh bread today, then what does yesterday’s dry, rotten bread and tomorrow’s anticipated bread matter?If you are truthful with yourself and have a firm, solid resolve, you will undoubtedly convince yourself of the following: Today is my last day to live. When you attain this attitude, you will profit from every moment of your day, by developing your personality expanding your abilities, and purifying your deeds.
