AM ---------------- Iranians Celebrate Norooz 2568 at the Tomb Of Cyrus The great! For the
Norooz of 2568 (or 1388 in islamic calendar), young Iranians from
all the corners of Iran have came to Pasargad to celebrate their new
year with the father of Iran, Cyrus the Great. Not only the Islamic
Republic have not prepared any ceremony at this crucial cultural site,
it has also tried to discourage people from getting there by limiting
the transportation and by closing the parking lots. This is a great movement that has started among the new generation of Iranians and it is not stoppable by any regime." ------------------------------ Shahnameh Khani dar Masjid Soleiman ------------------------------ By
Shirin Tabibzadeh As Nowruz approaches, a feeling of nostalgia and yearning fills my heart. The pain of a past long gone and the longing for a dear land that I have not seen for more than two decades but can still revive its scents in my mind, as if it were yesterday, sometimes becomes overwhelming.
Happy New Year from Speaker Nancy Pelosi Eid eh Shoma Mobarak. It is my distinct honor to bring you greetings on the occasion of Nowruz, Persian New Year. As Speaker of the House, and the Representative from Californias 8th Congressional District in San Francisco, I am proud to have a diverse constituency, including a vibrant Iranian-American community that represents the beauty and strength of our country.

Prodigy The Next Mozart? 6-Year Old Piano Prodigy Wows All "Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there; I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain; and Im the gentle Autumn rain. When you awake in the morning hush, I am the swift uplifted rush of quiet eagles in circling flight. And Im the soft stars that shine at night, do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there...I am Life! Alive!" --G. J. List
Painting by: Salvador Dali Geopoliticus Child Watching the Birth of the New Man (1943) "There is a time in every mans education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide The power which resides in him is new in nature, and none but he knows what that is which he can do, nor does he know until he has tried." --Ralph Waldo Emerson The Birth of Venus By: Sandro Botticelli
