n her feature-film debut, renowned visual artist Shirin Neshat offers an exquisitely crafted view of Iran in 1953, when a British- and American-backed coup removed the democratically elected government. Adapted from the novel by Iranian author Shahrnush Parsipur, the film weaves together the stories of five individual women during those traumatic days, whose experiences are shaped by their faith and the social structures in place. With a camera that floats effortlessly through the lives of the women and the beautiful countryside of Iran, Neshat explores the social, political, and psychological dimensions of her characters as they meet in a metaphorical garden, where they can exist and reflect while the complex intellectual and religious forces shaping their world linger in the air around them. Looking at Iran from Neshats point of view allows us to see the larger picture and realize that the human community resembles different organs of one body, created from a common essence.

He wears #11 for Arsenal, but in Euro and Qualifying for WC he wears # 7. So is it safe to say he will be wearing # 7 at the World Cup in 2010? I plan on getting his jersey very soon and need to know.

hoothoot123 asked:
I know that democracy is supposed to be ‘by the people for the people’ but what other advantages are there nowadays? You get to vote for who you think will represent you best but is there anything more to it?
I know the obvious reason that we get to chose our leader, but is there any other reason why democracy is better…in your oppinion what type of government is better:
Dictatorship-one leader controlles everything
Monarchy-its past down from birth
oligarchy-a few people have power
aristocracy-privileged people in power
democracy-people(supposedly) have the power
please help I really want to figure this out
