If you live in Iran and know students who have disappeared in the recent years or not been heard from you can help by filling this form. Write their names, the name of the university, when the student was accepted at the university, the last place they were seen, where were they from and so on. You do not have to write your own name.

There are plenty of music channels that baby and I enjoy listening to. I love my baby girl but I think her dad loves her even more. He says no one's love and nothing has ever come close to the love he feels for her.

Please support students' demonstrations against the ruling clerics (here).

I had a meeting yesterday and baby was outside with my hubby waiting. She kept coming to the door with her Teddy and a big pretty smile.

Another bloger is arrested in Iran.


And your tears will flow like a river
And at the close of your life
You will find that since your beloved
Has no land, no home, no address
You have been pursuing only a trace of smoke
How difficult it is, my son
To love a woman
Who has neither land, nor home.

Lady Sun describes her frustration, anger and sadness over the current situation in Iran. Dictators, the extremist group, the reformist government, wishful monarchists, and the Iranian students are among many she despises. She is one of many who live under the cruel Iranian regime where persecutions, prison, executions, sudden deaths, stoning are not just a few scary words.

The student protest turned into a larger demonstration against the clerics ruling the country.

A few days ago a friend sent me this. What I read on this blog was extremely disturbing. The bloger writes about a mentally challenged 16-year-old Iranian woman who was raped by two men. The men threatened the girl's parents and therefore the family refused to charge any complains. Few mounts later the 16-year-old gave birth to a baby. Today she -a rape victim- is convicted of prostitution!

Our friend Brian is leaving for Lebanon soon. Today is one of those days that I wish I were the one traveling. Of course I would love for my husband and baby to come along as long as I'm not changing the diapers.
