Some of my foreigner friend who didn’t yet visit Iran and specially Tehran often ask me, so dude how Tehran looks like? some even don’t know the facts such as having one of the worlds nicest ski resorts, Dizin + near Tehran.
The other day I found a cool nice panoramic view of Tehran in tehran24.com a site that  puts daily shots from Tehran, check they daily shots and here is the panoramic shot from Sahrak-e-gharb neighborhood that I mentioned before.
updated: I just find another nice shot that shows Tehran’s famous Park-Way junction.

I’ve heard about The Zimmers through a podcast show yesterday, The Zimmers are a British band that thought to have the oldest members in the world, they have Alf as a lead singer who is 90 and they oldest member is Buster Martin the oldest employee in UK, Buster is 100.

They only have one single till now a cover of The Who’s “My Generation” you can watch the video of this song here on Y! video, this video completely made my day. The name of “The Zimmers” came from Zimmer, an old brand of walking frames, cool huh?

“I do believe that Iranians cook rice better than anyone else in the world, that Iranian women are the most beautiful in the world, and that the roses smell sweeter.”

Frances Harrison BBC’s correspondent in Iran is leaving Tehran after 3years of working. She have an interesting points of view about Iran and its conditions, definitely worth reading.

Recently I made a web page with a help from cool services of tumblr.

I’ve just receive this cool email from a friend of mine and I want to share it with you, so here is the 5 golden rules for men:

Five rules for men to follow to achieve a happier life:

1. It’s important to have a woman who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans and has a job.

2. It’s important to have a woman who can make you laugh.

3. It’s important to have a woman whom you can trust and who doesn’t lie to you.

4. It’s important to have a woman who is good in bed and who likes to be with you.

5. It’s very, very important that these four women do not know each other!

It was about two months ago that I heard about a new musician-singer named “Mohsen Namjo”, and It was just yesterday that I heard one of his song via a link in one of my friends blog.

He have a very strange music I’m not a music specialist to name his style but I’m sure that he have his very unique style in Iranian music, he don’t sing in normal, modern and traditional ways, he uses his voice as an instrument so you may hear almost every thing. You can also hear some Jazz, Rock, Blues and specially Iranian traditional music in his tracks. He mix every thing in a very new, strange and creative way. As far as I know he have 5 albums waiting in the line to be released and none of the officially released yet, take a look at his web site, and you can download one of his clips called “Zolf bad Bad” here (HQ/LQ) beside reading the lyrics translation to English.
