Dear Mrs. Tabibzadeh The new issue of Rozaneh is very good. I am glad you are getting so DH. Switzerland I like Melinda Barnhardt's
writings. I am so glad that she has a column on a regular basis. I have a question for you. Do you
Shirin Khanoom, I sent you a write up about my impression from Africa. I travel to that continent extensively, thought to share some inforamation with your magazine. Hope you like it. If you don't you do not have to publish it. I enjoy your magazine a lot and wish you more success. much love Fedra Hello Shirin, Greetings, Shirin jan, I refer to rozaneh for the latest news most of the time. But it looks like you do not update it on a daily basis. I would like to commend you for choosing the best and giving an easy overall look at the news of Iran and the world but wished you updated that section more often. Azadeh Moslem Dear Editor, it is been a while you did not have any articles from Mr. Fariborz Mofid. Is there a reason for that. Do you think you will have his writings in the future? I really liked his writings. Would you also let me know when the new issue is out.? K Malek Dear Shirin, I sometimes look at your magazine. I am glad that you did not go with the trend of getting tangled into the web of our media constantly scaring people about Anthrax, war, etc. It is a pleasure browsing through Rozaneh. I have stopped reading papers or watching TV. I am sick to my stomach. One more thing is........................ ................... Kathleen Shirine Aziz, Hedy, Belgique Dear Editor, your magazine is finding a good solid place in the community. It is getting better and better and it looks like as you go along you are finding some kind of direction. Have you ever thought of having it on hard copy and sell? With some more focus, Rozaneh can become a good publication. Have you thought of going that direction? I ENJOY READING it AND THANK YOU. Ramin Barkohana Salaam Shirin Joon: While I am impressed with the content of most pages of your magazine, Rozaneh is somewhat a wild mix. Golden age movie stars? Princess Stephane? you need to focus. Some of the articles and links are very good. Thanks for the hard work though.
happy anniversary rozaneh. thank you for the good job,that is hard and time Salaam Shirin jaan, Dear Shirin The current issue of Rozaneh is stunning! I am more impressed than ever with the quality and sophistication of the articles presented.---------------------------------------- On nostramous: This IS such a blatant HOAX, but some gullible readers might still believe it, and worst, perpetuate it. Perhaps you should clearly mark it as such or, better, move it to the humor section of your magazine. I am in the midst of preparing a city wide and environs program on Islam. Our
local Unitarian minister called the Islamic Society to ask what could be done
to help out during a trying period for hyphenated Americans in their Shirin jaan, Shirin Jaan, Shirin Khanoom, I love the "Garden", I get lost in it. I have sent you one of my poem. I am only 18, and I have come to America recently. Don't know if my poems are good but I like them a lot. What is your phone #? here is mine....................please call me on this coming Sunday................................................... ........................... Nooshin Gholami I was so sad to see the pictures of Leila Pahlavi, I did not know she was so pretty. Also the funeral was so sad. I am so furious at some comedians to make fun of it. Extremely cruel, can't even leave people alone for a few days for them to mourn their loved ones in peace. So sad to be like that. Laleh , Berkeley I loved your tribute page to Princess Leila. It is amazing how you are always up-to-date. I cried reading the poems. What a waste. I feel so much for her family and especially for her mother................... Just Manijeh Dear Shirin, This issue was fab! Aside from the wonderful articles, the letters are something else again. What a wide range of coverage you have........................................................................................................................................................................ Rosemary Dear Shirin, I sent you several poems in July, you did not put them in your magazine. At least if you don't like them, inform me, I have all kinds of them from the old to the recent ones. I looked everywhere, do you have poems anywhere other than the Garden? What kind of poems you like? A. Razaz Hi Dear Shirin, Dear Shirin, Dear Rozaneh, I liked the satire of this issue, it looks like a part of it was missing, didn't go back to check. Also, going back to previous issue was not possible. Please fix that too. No bigi. Good luck. Mosavi Shirin jan, I thought writing abut Thoreau was so great. He is my favorite writer socioeconomic. I have done my dissertation on him. Good job to remember him. Ms. Barnhardt's article was excellent, hope I had access to it last year!!. Mino Heravi, VA. Ms. Tabibzadeh Your article called "the tale of two revolutions" was bias and unfair. The writer has played down the role of one of the foremost and most important revolutions in history of mankind as a failure. While it is true that the French revolution was a bloody one, like all others, it was also the beginning of the awakening of the mass all over the world for their rights. Many nations were inspired by it afterwards to fight for their rights. Besides, American revolution was not a revolution as such. It was the war of a nation to get rid of a usurper, meaning the British Empire. If I find the time, I don't mind writing an article on the two. Moreover........... Dr. Ardeshir Mahmoodian, London Ms. Tabibzadeh's I would like to congratulate you for choosing so many good articles. I personally am so proud of people like Dr. Nafisi. I had the privilege of meeting her at her lectures several times. She is an excellent orator as well as an extremely well balanced, good and kind lady. I am one of her fan and hope she has more lectures in our area. by the way what is the name of her book? S. P., Washington DC. I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Nafisi's article. I hope you have more of those types, only I wished Mr. Nafisi had also done a research for finding the root to that decline. I also would like to ask you to continue an article on the same issue, because people forget to go and find the rest of it in a month or two. In general, not too many people are going to sit and read an article that long on the internet but if they really like them, they will make a print out and read whenever they can, just a suggestion! In all, most of your articles are good and sometimes very good. The satire of the last issue had some parts missing, did you know that? Thanks anyway for your hard work. P. Mar'ashi Dear Shirin, Thank you for a job well done. The article by Dr. Nafisi, was one of the best articles in your periodical, I enjoyed it very much and I congratulate Dr. Nafisi for paying attention to this very delicate matter. It is so sad to know that in our treatment of women we have gone backwards. I have enjoyed reading those stories and it shows that we once had a more modern society than what we have today. Our modern literature is full of putting down women, women are shelakhteh, and ignorant, and a doll or a servant for their men. It is such a shame. In our family we had madarshahi but I don't think people in general respected women as they should. I sure hope to see that. Also.................................................................................................................................................................................... ................................................ Moji Hashemi, Japan Salue Chirine Hello Auntie Shirin and family, I was looking on the internet and typed your name and found your magazine page, so thought i would send an email to say hope you are all keeping well and that I think about everyone a lot even though i don't contact you that often. I have no contact address for anyone. I am happy to find you at last ..................................................... ................................... .........................................................

Dear Shirin Tabibzaeh, ahou and
maryam, you guys are doing great, are you related? Can't you have
something for us the poor guys too, it is all women stuff. NOT FAIR! Hi, Shirin, ------------------------- Hi Shirin khanom, Hello Shirin,

Dear editor, I am looking for a friend. We used to work at Etelaat Banovan many years ago in Iran. Her name was Jila Sazegar. I hope if any of your readers know about her write to me. I will leave my phone number and mail with you. Please help. Jila's sister, Lila was a good friend of my sister. This is going to be very helpful. I live in Germany and to help you, Jila was a very good writer. Maybe some one knows her. Moteshaker Goli Khorvash Salaam ! Masoud A.
Shirin Jaan, Dear editor,
Dear Shirin==Eid mubarak!--I thought you might be interested in a letter I recently wrote to a friend. Perhaps you may put something on your website about what the Persian Community in xxxxxx in xxxx is doing. Naturally, I would not want you to quote my friend on xxxxxxx Anyway, tell me what you think-- "Two weeks ago, I had my friends, xxxxxxxx here to dinner and we talked into the night as they are most interesting people. xxxx had just returned from Iran and, although xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx He is our local carpet dealer (the descendent of a long line xxxxxx) and he says antique carpets in Iran are now running into the millions of dollars. Anyway, the xxxxxxx hosted a two day Now Ruz gala at our xxxxx Museum of Art and Science on the 17th and 18th. I helped with it and it was phantasmagorial. .Eight Iranian films were shown. If you have never seen one of them, give yourself a treat. They are mood evocative and you will find yourself wrapped up in their warmth. There was Persian dancing, food, a teahouse, a bride dressed in red, astride a caparisoned horse, going to meet her groom. There were interactive music workshops of all sorts, --vocalization,, percussion, tar and stringed instruments. xxxxx, 6th generation Doctor of Traditional Persian Medicine, an herbalist, had a much visited exhibit. There was a poetry festival with a special lecture and recitation on Rumi by Majid Naini and a world music concert. In addition, there were countless children's activities where they learned to write their names in Farsi, learned Persian dance, attempted to weave, colored Persian carpet patterns, played stringed instruments, etc. A high school senior, one Bijan, manned the history booth. He fascinated young and old with his heroic tales from Persian history recited in a dramatic, exciting fashion. I sold goldfish! They are an integral part of the New Year scene and every child wants his very special goldfish bowl. At one point, I was displaying khatam, a unique Persian craft similar to marquetry, people came up to the exhibit, picked up a box or pencil holder and reminisced about the same type box or pencil holder that they remember on their grandmother's bureau. It was a time of bittersweet memory and nostalgia for many--including me. I didn't want the weekend to end. The Persian community is a small one in xxxxx County but xxxxx wants to make sure everyone knows that they are here! He succeeded!-- Love -Rosemary. Dear Shirin, I ahve just opened
your most recent edition of Rozaneh and both Pari and I would like to
congratulate you on a truly professional presentation. There are some
excellent articles. Keep up the good work. I will certainly spread the
name. Hi, Shirin, Melinda It is Very smoothing ...
--- we fixed some, we will fix the rest at our earliest, it's been quite busy. Thank you so much. Bunny, your website is beautiful. I really like how you designed it! I can see you put a lot of work into it. And your articles are really interesting. Cynthia Shirin When I read your article again, I thought it was poetic, really. It even has something of the sense of Farrokhzad. I have told a few people about it already. It is perfectly charming. And I am thrilled to have my review in such a marvelous magazine. I am thinking of writing Elaine Sciolino to tell her about Rozaneh. (I liked her very much, at the January lecture -- she is very personable and attractive, and she said that the reason she keeps going back to Iran is the Iranian people.) I probably can't do it this week, but hopefully the week after. Melinda I LOVE YOU!!!!! your article
was so intense.. beautiful.. i started crying and had to go to the
bathroom.. YOU are the most amazing, strong, intelligent, beautiful
woman in the world. i look up to you, learn from you, want to emulate
you and am proud to be compared to you anytime such words are shed. you
are glamorous, progressive, refined, classy, smart, hip, deep,
intuitive, and just plain evolved... your parents would be beyond proud
of you... Maryam ---thanks mamy, a bit too much, even for your mama. Dear Shirin Dear Shirin I did see your new edition of Rozaneh. Have not read all the articles yet. But you seem to have done a good job again. I had also enjoyed the articles on Forough in the last issue. Freydoon Dear Shirin, I think you've done a great job, keep up the good work. warm regards John Winn, Paris Hello Shirin-jan: M. O. Shirin Shirin, we have recently come to know about your Magazine on the web, we are so impressed. Simin is a regular reader and I have just browsed through it. It is good and the look quite impressive, perhaps you need to focus on the direction a little more. Otherwise we are so proud of you. love S. and A. Izadpanah, South Africa Dear Rozaneh, Dear Yaddolah, I don't work for SIP any more, I redirected your e-mail to their e-mail address. Don't have a clue about that issue, I learned about it at the same time that you did as I don't take part in their meetings and don't have an official position in there since the new administration. I was just doing their NL which is not political at all as you can observe yourself. I thought I was doing a service to the community and nothing more. thank you. Dear readers, if you are interested in an authographed copy of Pulitzer Prize nominated "Tao of Surfing.....Finding Depth at Low Tide" by the author, Michael Allen, please send an e-mail to : shirintabib@earthlink.net We will gladly process your order. Dear Webmaster , I really appreciate your
cooperation and concern, Hi Shirin Attention: we fixed some of them, please bear with us. thank you. I am an Iranian women who has
lived in a shelter for a while, I took refuge there because of all the
abuse that I received from my own Iranian husband!. I am now living with
a nice american family taking care of their children in exchange for a
room!! I have an MS. degree in Chemistry but since I don't have
any experience in this country I am working at a restaurant. I am mostly
looking for a relevant job on the internet (thanks to my employer ,
using their computer). I know there are a lot of Iranian organizations
in this area, can someone help me? If they can't help us to the extent
of finding a job, I don't know what is the purpose of even having an
organization. Wherever I send my resume, they need experience. I am so
desperate, do you know what I can do? thank you. Dear Rozaneh, The article written by Mr. Arbabi attracted my attention, I would like to read more about this subject. Can Mr. Arbabi write a little more about this subject?. I am studying music and while I am more into classical music per say, may write my dissertation on Persian music. thanx. Naz Oskooian attention Ms. Oskooian: Mr. arbabi has recently published a book on this issue. You may contact him personally at: farbabi@mtu.edu or we can provide him with your e-mail address if you don't mind. Dear Shirin, I am interested to
know what type of articles you are seeking to publish for I would like
to submit several of my pieces to your magazine. Attention: Dear Banafsheh, we responded to your two messages but unfortunately they both returned, can't figure out why? If you read this, please contact us asap. Thank you. I was very impressed with the article "Meditation........." by Ms. Barnhardt. Aside from the excellent manner she depicted just a simple painting that we always take for granted if it is not "made in.......", it was refreshing to hear a foreigner especially an American to write about our country and our culture with such love and affection and attachment. Her delicate expression of each and every detail demonstrates a deep, un-bios persona whom I thought to send my regards and thank her from my heart. Thanks Ms. B., it was great. Regards Dear Shrin: Shirin joon, I commend you and
the crew for the nice work. It truly takes love, caring, enthusiasm, and
efforts to put such beautiful magazine online. It contains nice and
beneficial articles and resources. Any particular subject of interest
you are looking for? I came upon your
O/L magazine quite accidentally. It caught my curiosity and after
reviewing the different pages, I found it attractive in appearance,
entertaining, informative, and cosmopolitan. Bon Chance Dear Mrs.
Tabibzadeh: Dear Ms.
Tabibzadeh and friends Hey, good job Rozaneh, only I think you are a little on the feminist side, is that true? I also think you should put more stuff related to our country, I think you are a little too westernized!!. Other than that, this is one of the most informative beautiful web sites I have ever seen. NO hard feelings??????? Saman Firouzbakht Congratulations on starting a long due Iranian magazine on line. I already like your mag format and I am sure given time you'll have more to contribute. Keep up the good work and please let me know how I can subscribe so I'll get it automatically. Thanks, Farhad Good job Rozaneh,
Please contact me, I have some articles to send you, they are at least
4-5 pages each, is there a limit? thank you for all the information and
when is the next issue coming out, I have already read it all. More than
anything else, it is so easy to navigate around! Don't make it too
complicated and crowded.
Shirin Jan, Dear Rozaneh, Dear Shirin: Hi Rosaneh, Dorood, Hi Rozaneh Dear
Shirin
