Persian Media with Bad Influence

Iranian police launch campaign to seize satellite dishes

anian police have launched yet another campaign to confiscate privately owned satellite dishes, used by many Iranians to watch foreign television programs.
Local news reports said police had launched operations in areas of west and southwest Tehran aimed at hunting down the illicit dishes, which are smuggled into the country and sold for the equivalent of less than $200. The devices, especially popular in the capital, 

provide viewers with a wide array of TV programs from abroad, including political talk shows and dubbed Turkish soap operas popular throughout the Middle East.
Three residents of the Ekabatan neighborhood in southwest Tehran told The Times that police officers arrived Thursday in the reception areas of their apartment buildings, showing residents a warrant from the Iranian judiciary before heading to the roofs to seize dishes.

Privately owned satellite dishes are illegal in the Islamic Republic. Iranian clerics often issue stern warnings of the immoral effects that foreign programs can have on Iranians.

Some linked the renewed crackdown to the approach of the holy Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, when many Iranians park themselves in front of their TVs to watch racy Turkish Ramadan soap operas — series that feature subjects such as out-of-wedlock pregnancies and intricate love dramas. Such topics touch a nerve with Iran's conservative clerical hierarchy.

“We are not against technology but against promiscuity and licentiousness, which are spread by these soap operas on satellite TV channels,” read one comment to a news report about the crackdown by a reader who supported the satellite ban.

Each year, Iranian authorities invest considerable energy in confiscating private satellite dishes. Authorities often resort to creative means to find the offensive devices, which are often hidden on apartment balconies.

In Iran's second largest city, Mashad, police have parked large cranes outside apartment buildings, checking balconies one by one, according to the Iranian reformist website Saham News. The website has posted pictures  [link in Farsi] showing two large yellow cranes in front of an apartment building during a purported satellite dish confiscation in Mashad.

Jennifer Lopez in Morocco

Jennifer Lopez is now on the agenda for the Prime Minister of Morocco ... who is launching an investigation into Jennifer's ass shaking concert and threatening more legal action.
The Moroccan PM, Abdelilah Benkirane, says there’s no place for J.Lo’s ass on Moroccan TV because it flies in the face of the country's religious morals.
TMZ broke the story ... an educational group has already filed a lawsuit against J.Lo for the concert, and now Benkirane is demanding legal action against the people responsible for the broadcast.
There was reportedly a 5 second delay, so the PM's suggesting someone should've had his or her finger on the trigger to protect the nation's eyes from Jenny's booty.
J.Lo performed in the north African nation on May 29, and it was broadcast on public TV. The concert featured all the hallmarks of what we'd call a typical J.Lo show -- sexy dancing, skimpy outfits, appropriate emphasis on her ass ... and her dancers' asses.
Problem is ... according to this lawsuit, all those things have no business airing on Moroccan TV. The suit was filed by an education group which says Ms. Lopez "disturbed public order and tarnished women's honor and respect."
Jennifer and the promoter are being sued. In the unlikely event she's found guilty, she faces 1 month to 2 years in prison.
We're told J.Lo has performed in Morocco in the past without any issues -- but she's never been on TV before. But seriously, what were they expecting?

Fun With The Car

Adults with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) feel mad at the world, and they lose their temper regularly, sometimes daily. Adults with ODD defend themselves relentlessly when someone says they've done something wrong. They feel misunderstood and disliked, hemmed in and pushed around. Some feel like mavericks or rebels. What Causes Oppositional Defiant Disorder in Adults?
It's unclear. It could be that a pattern of rebellion sets in when children with ADHD are constantly at odds with adults who are trying to make them behave in ways that their executive function deficit prohibits. By the time kids have had ADHD symptoms for two or three years, 45 to 84 percent of them develop oppositional defiant distorder, too.

How does ADHD Relate to Oppositional Defiant Disorder in Adults?
It could be that the emotional regulation problems that come with attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD) make it more difficult to manage anger and frustration. The impulsive emotion associated with ADHD means a greater quickness to anger, impatience, and a low frustration tolerance, which can be the spark that lights the fire of ODD. Venting and acting out toward others leads to conflict. Maybe that's why adults with ODD are more likely to get fired, even though poor work performance ratings are caused more by ADHD.

How is Oppositional Defiant Disorder in Adults Treated?
In many cases, the stimulant medications used to treat ADHD also improve ODD.

What if ADHD Medication Doesn't Help?
Enroll in an anger-management course given by a mental health professional at a health clinic or a community college. Taking Charge of Anger, a book by Robert Nay, offers practical advice that may benefit an adult with ODD. Some adults require a second medication, in addition to stimulants, to manage ODD.

At nine, Iranian schoolgirls are handed a chador and ushered into public life... and its paradoxes
The Islamic dress code - or hijab - is a game for 25-year-old Tahereh, who feels perfectly comfortable letting her headscarf fall off her shoulders as she covers the distance from her car to a friend's apartment building on a residential street in central Tehran. The same cannot be said for the Basij militiamen who regularly cruise through this part of town on their motorcycles, stopping to reprimand pre-teen girls for stepping out of their home without a headscarf and a loose coat, or manteau. Typically, this is the minimum level of covering tolerated by an Islamic establishment whose official line is that "hijab is protection from sin."

Despite the official hard line, the scale of covering up in Iran varies by region and neighbourhood, and many women agree that in terms of their rights, hijab is low on the list of their immediate worries. Nevertheless, it remains a universal topic of public discourse among the secularising middle class that helped elect the moderate President Hassan Rouhani into office this summer. Though the enforcement of public dress code has remained largely unchanged during his first three months in office, the government has indicated an imminent change in the current policy on "hijab and chastity."

One recent signal is the announced plan to transfer the responsibility for hijab enforcement from the police force to the interior ministry, which would free the police to focus on more pertinent "security" issues. Another indication are the statements of Rouhani himself, which have been in line with his pre-election promises to lift the restrictions on personal freedoms young people experienced under the previous administration.

At a recent government meeting, the president advised the police force to approach the hijab issue "with respect for human dignity and refrain from excessive measures," according to a 13 November front-page article in the reformist Shargh daily analysing the signs of a potential change in the official stance on hijab enforcement. At the same time, the newspaper highlighted Rouhani's message to the public, in which he asked the people to treat "the topics of character, chastity and hijab" with sensitivity and to respect "societal norms."

Youth Parties in Iran

Getting drunk in a Muslim country: Iran's secret party scene revealed

“Have a shot of tequila first, cheer up!” Shahriyar tells guests gathered at his luxury apartment in Tehran.
His girlfriend, Shima, said they party every weekend. “Shahriyar has one rule: bring your booze! We drink until morning,” she said on a FaceTime call, as lights flashed to rap music in the background.
Despite the ban on alcohol and frequent police raids, drinking in Iran is widespread, especially among the wealthy. Because the Shia-dominated Muslim state has no nightclubs, it all takes place at home, behind closed doors.
Some of the alcohol is smuggled in, but many resourceful Iranians make their own.

“My friends and I routinely gather to stamp down on grapes in my bathtub,” said Hesam, a 28-year-old music teacher in Tehran, asking to be identified only by his first name. “It’s fun, a cleansing ritual almost.”
Some take considerable pride in their results. “I have a friend who makes wine for his own consumption but gives me around 30 bottles per year as well,” said 36-year-old Mousa, speaking from the central city of Isfahan.

Only members of religious minorities – Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians – are allowed to brew, distil, ferment and drink, in their homes, and trade in liquor is forbidden. Catholic priests make their own wine for Mass.
Yet wine-making has a long history in Iran. Scientists believe Stone Age settlers in what is now Iran drank wine with their olives and bread as early as 5,000 BC.
The renowned Shiraz variety of grape, named after the city in the south of the country, is said to have been brought back to Europe by the Crusaders.
Persian poets Hafez and Omar Khayyam extolled the virtues of the grape.

“What drunkenness is this that brings me hope? Who was the cup-bearer and whence the wine?” Hafez wrote in the 14th century.
In modern Iran, the Armenian community is the main source of home-brewed spirits, notably arak, a vodka extracted from sun-dried grapes.
Amin, a 35-year-old sports trainer, has turned his yard into a vineyard and rigged up a crude apparatus in his basement to make the spirit, which costs as little as 50p a litre.

Which all means if you aren’t inclined to make your own, wine, beer and moonshine are just a phone call away.
“You don’t even need to leave the house,” said Reza, a computer engineer in Tehran. “Nasser, the brewer, will deliver it to your door.”
The availability of alcohol has caused alarm among the country’s clerical leaders, many of whom accuse the West of plotting to lure Iranians away from pious religious observance.

Golzar family Haftseen

The oldest of Iranian traditions, Nowruz (also referred to as eyd-i sar-i sal and eyd-i sal-i now) recalls the cosmological and mythological times of Iran. Its founder is a deputy of Ahura Mazda on earth, a position that imparts to him and the celebration a spiritual dimension and a particular sense of secular authority. The celebration is organized according to the dynamics of love between the Creator and his creation, the material world. The annual return of the spirits of the departed to their homes is celebrated by their offsprings according to primordial rites of which only a faint trace remains among the Persians and the Parsees of today. But that in no way diminishes the importance of the bond which is refreshed at every Nowruz.
The word "Nowruz" is a compound of two Persian words, "now" which has the same etymology as the English word "new" and means new, and the word "ruz" which means both "day" and "time." Literally meaning the "new day," nowruz is usually translated as "new year." The Persian Nowruz begins on the first day of spring (usually the 21st of March). The 21st of March, therefore, is equal to the 1st day of Farvardin of the Islamic solar calendar.

In the mind of Iranians, the word nowruz invokes colorful images which are sumptuous, elegant, and opulent as well as delightfully simple, refreshing, and cordial. Although colored with vestiges of Iran's Mazdian and Zoroastrian past, the Nowruz celebration is neither religious or national in nature, nor is it an ethnic celebration. Jewish, Zoroastrian, Armenian and Turkish Iranians and Central Asians celebrate the Nowruz with the same enthusiasm and sense of belonging. Perhaps it is this very universal nature of the message of Nowruz that speaks to its wealth of rites and customs as well as to its being identified as the unique fount of continuity of the Iranian culture.
