I took two Swedish tourists along with me to the celebration for the 29th anniversary of the revolution. The Swedes had come to Iran to ski for a week and were only in the city for just over 24 hours, for which I suggested this among other things and they were more than happy to join.
I was a little nervous about the blond hair causing us problems but oddly enough I seemed to get clocked more often with, "hey look! Foreigners!".
The nearest three tube stations were closed off and thus we had a long journey to the Azadi tower.
At a guess there must have been just under 2-million people out that day in Tehran alone. Across the country, I might hazard a further guess of over 5-million - maybe more.
I only heard "Death to England" once and was pleased that England was still among the chants. Mostly it was directed towards Israel.
The president did about a 1-hour and 20-minute speech that we heard all the way from the tube to the tower. As we arrived he was rounding up.
I was unable to translate much to my guests as the Farsi was very 'bookish'. It was the usual mix of the Zionist regime causing problems for our Muslim brothers in Palatine. There was the usual stuff about America and some odd things mentioned about the national economic plans.
The Swedes really enjoyed the day and got many photos and films of the moment. It was a nice contrast from the uptown activity that filled the rest of their visit I think.

The lead-up to Saturdays protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government cant ignore, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.Nationwide day of action against TPPA: “Ignore us at your peril” government warned
“The lead-up to Saturday’s protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government can’t ignore”, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.
A video shows young activists publicising Saturday’s nationwide protests with footage from Auckland, Wellington, Dunedin, Christchurch, and Nelson.
Action in the 22 centres starts at 10am in Raglan and many of the larger centre marches begin at 1pm, including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
“People have been incredibly creative”, Miller said. “In Christchurch a giant plain-packaged cigarette packet will be marching in the crowd, while Auckland will be led by an enormous Trojan Horse, locked in a tug-of-war between major commercial interests and activist communities.”
“Around the country everyday kiwis will be photographed for a virtual campaign with signs saying ‘I am a ___________ and I say #TPPANoDeal.’ Already this campaign has been very popular.”
“Trade minister Tim Groser needs to recognise that people don’t buy the ‘trust me’ line. They want to be listened to when they say they don’t want the TPPA. And they deserve to be listened to.”

Signs pinned to trees on Pacific University's campus. I think they're in protest of trees getting cut down for new buildings. We've lost a lot of trees the past couple of years to development.

Protest the Hero is a Canadian progressive metal band from Whitby, Ontario.[3] Originally named Happy Go Lucky,[4] the band changed their name to Protest the Hero shortly before releasing their debut EP, Search for the Truth, in 2002. In 2005, the band released their first full-length album Kezia on the indie label Underground Operations.
On January 23, 2006, the band signed with Vagrant Records for Kezia's American release on April 4, 2006. Their second full-length album, Fortress was released by Underground Operations in Canada and by Vagrant Records worldwide on January 29, 2008.[5] The band released their third studio album, Scurrilous, on March 22, 2011.
Expressing frustrations with record labels, in January of 2013 the band announced that they would crowdfund their fourth full-length album.[6] The Indiegogo campaign was a runaway success, and the independently-released Volition debuted on October 29, 2013, distributed with the help of Razor & Tie.
Il ministro Maroni prosegue con il suo sfoggio di genialità.
Saranno quegli occhialetti 'fighi' tutti colorati che gli scombiccherano i neuroni in tale misura da provocargli una vera e propria psichedelia creativa?
Non lo so, tuttavia ammetterete che l'ideona di vietare le manifestazioni in tuuutti quei posti dove possano 'dar fastidio' è una genialata!
A quando gli scioperi solo nel deserto di Gobi, le proteste nelle steppe della Kamchatka e le folle dissenzienti esclusivamente nello sperduto outback australiano?
Mi piace infine sottolineare una 'chicca': subito dopo il divieto di dissenso di fronte alle chiese vengono citati i centri commerciali ora più che mai vere cattedrali moderne del dio denaro unica Forza Superiore cui si inchina l'allegra combriccola di individui che dovrebbe lavorare per il bene della nazione! Buon vitello d'oro a tutti!
