“If Chinese investors are interested, we can offer them land in order to invest in the construction of tourism sites and facilities,” he said in a meeting with Chinese Minister of Culture and Tourism ‎Luo Shugang in Beijing.

The Iranian minister also expressed readiness boost cooperation with Beijing in the field of cultural activities, especially research and the restoration of ancient monuments.

“We have good cooperation with European countries such as Germany, France and Italy in this filed, and we can work with China, too, in this area, especially with regards to the exchange of researchers and experts,” Mounesan added.

He noted Iran and China enjoy very good political and economic ties, adding the two sides can forge closer cooperation on cultural and tourism fronts as well.

He said high on Iran’s agenda is to train Chinese-speaking tourists, calling on the Chinese Embassy to help in that regard.

‘Iran Has Evidence IAEA Inspector Carried Suspicious Materials’

Salehi

Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali-Akbar Salehi said on Saturday the inspector failed to give convincing explanation for carrying the substances.

“Generally, inspectors enjoy diplomatic immunity as ambassadors do while on a mission, and such issues have been stipulated in international laws and regulations,” he said.

“For example, if an Iranian AEOI inspector faces an issue in another country, he or she will enjoy diplomatic immunity,” Salehi added.

“Of course, IAEA inspectors must be checked when they enter Iranian sites. This is naturally done while inspecting nuclear facilities all around the world, and this law is not only related to Iran,” he said.

“During the check that was run by machines, one of the inspectors found the inspector to be carrying suspicious materials,” he added.

“When she was asked about it, she failed to give convincing and acceptable answers,” he said.

“At the end, all the events were documented and filmed, but we could not keep the inspector as she had diplomatic immunity,” Salehi added.

He said Iran sent a written objection to the IAEA in that regard and announced the country will follow up on the issue.

He said the inspectors carrying suspicious materials is seen by Iran as a move in connection with the malware Stuxnet.

“We have a site in Iran where we keep faulty machinery. And we buy many of the devices (spare parts) from abroad. But they sabotage these devices, so that we would face problems when operating our machinery,” he noted.

“They used the malware Stuxnet against us. They committed industrial sabotage against us and sold faulty equipment to us, but we were vigilant in that regard,” said Salehi.

Elsewhere in his remarks, he touched upon Iran’s enrichment activity.

He said enrichment work is underway at Fordo facility due to a breach of commitments by the European parties to the Iran nuclear deal known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

“As long as they fail to live up to their obligations, we will continue enrichment at Fordo,” he said.

Salehi said Iran’s objective is to maintain the JCPOA.

Air Pollution Shuts Down Schools, Universities in Tehran (5)

According to the latest data, the air pollution index in Tehran has approached the hazardous level of 150.

A hazardous level is an alert in which everyone may experience ill effects and are advised to stay indoors.

The decision was made a day earlier by the Air Pollution Exigency Committee, according to Tehran Province Deputy Governor Mohammad Taqizadeh.

The odd-even traffic scheme will be applied all across the capital and that the ban on the movement of trucks as well as the activity of sand mines and concrete industries would remain in place, the official said.

The ban is also extended on holding outdoor sports matches until further notice. As a result, the football match between Tehran giants Persepolis FC and Nassaji of Mazandaran, which was due to be held Saturday afternoon, has been called off.

Over the past few days, Tehran has been blanketed by heavy smug, with the air pollution reaching the level considered unsafe for all groups of people.

Authorities have urged citizens, especially children, pregnant women and the elderly, to stay indoors.

Each winter, Tehran, a metropolitan city surrounded by mountains, suffers some of the worst air pollution in the world through thermal inversion — a phenomenon that traps hazardous air over the city.

Other industrial Iranian cities also experience similar periodic heavy air pollution.

Iraqi PM Vows to Resign after Top Cleric’s Call

“I will submit to parliament an official memorandum resigning from the current prime ministry so that the parliament can review its choices,” Abdul Mahdi said Friday.

Earlier in the day, Ayatollah al-Sistani said that parliament, which elected the year-old government of Abdul Mahdi, should “reconsider its options”.

“We call upon the House of Representatives from which this current government emerged to reconsider its options in that regard,” Ayatollah al-Sistani said in his weekly sermon delivered in the holy city of Najaf via a representative.

Abdul Mahdi said he “listened with great concern” to the top cleric’s sermon and made his decision in response to his call and in order to “facilitate and hasten its fulfillment as soon as possible”.

The developments came a day after more than 50 people were killed by security forces in one of the bloodiest days of violence since the anti-government protests erupted in early October.

Gamaj Kebab Luxury Food of Northern Iran

Gamaj Kebab Luxury Food of Northern Iran (2)

The food is named after a local clay cauldron known as Gamaj in the local vernacular.

Gamaj kebab is usually cooked with red meat, but white meat such as chicken and turkey can also be used. Interesting enough, when this food is made with chicken, it is known as the Tala-Kooleh-Ghoorabe stew in the local language. This stew is not only very delicious, but also very useful for the body thanks to the nutritious herbs used in it.

Gamaj Kebab Luxury Food of Northern Iran (1)Ingredients:

Walnut kernel: 300gr

Onions: An average-sized onion

Pomegranate paste: 2 spoonfuls

Pomegranate juice: 2 spoonfuls

Stew herbs: 400gr (the local Choochaq herb, or chives, parsley and coriander instead)

Liquid oil: As much as necessary

Meat: 600gr

Tomato paste: 2 spoonfuls

Salt, black pepper and turmeric: As much as necessary

Recipe:

First, shred the onion and sauté it until it gets soft and transparent.

After the onion gets soft, add some turmeric and keep sautéing the mixture until you get a consistent mix of onion and turmeric. Then chop the meat and add it to the ingredients. After you sauté the meat, add tomato paste along with pomegranate paste and pomegranate juice. Then sauté them all together until the tomato paste and pomegranate paste get fried a little. Then chop the herbs and add them to the ingredients together with ground walnut. Sauté all the ingredients for a few more minutes until you get a consistent mixture. Then add a few glasses of boiling water and allow the stew to be cooked through on low heat. If you use the Gamaj cauldron, the food will become tastier.

In the last 30 minutes when the food is being cooked, taste it, and add some salt and black pepper if needed. This stew is served with little stock (water), so do not serve it until it loses quite some water and only oil is left behind. Finally, you may serve the stew with rice.

The desert has good recreational facilities including safari, motorbikes and camels that give you a different experience. The desert is located 55 kilometres from the city of Khor of Isfahan province next to a village bearing the same name. The village along with its desert has a warm and dry climate.

In the summer, the climate is warm and during the cold seasons the weather is moderate. The desert is hot and sunny during the day, but it gets cold at night with the fall of temperatures.

Alongside the Mesr village, there are many other small villages in the desert; to name Amirabad, Farahzad and Garmeh.

The beautiful palm trees, bushes and sand hills have created spectacular scenery in these villages. But Garmeh is different. The presence of Dr Fish springs with therapeutic fish has attracted more tourists to this desert village.

There is also an interesting palm tree field called Burned Palm Field; which came into being during winter 40 years ago. While travelling to Mesr desert, you can stay at Maziar Al Davoud House there. Maziar Al Davood is an architect who, along with his French wife, has renovated his ancestral home and converted it into a residence.

Beyazeh is a 110-kilometre village in the countryside that attract many desert tourists due to its ancient citadel, aqueducts, the Old Jame Mosque, and the dense palm trees. Beyazeh Castle is located in this village. It is a Sassanid-era structure that has been used for centuries for housing and defense and has become a base for the followers of Hassan-i Sabbāh in the Ismaili state.

The CEO of the company says “Barjasteh Negar” (literally raised-graph) is a smart tablet for the blind that comes with a braille keyboard and the output will be Persian audio and braille script.

He pointed out that the mobile smart tablet has a Linux operating system and allows blind people to read texts in audio and braille without the need for a computer connection.

“The blind can type in both Farsi and English, listen to music and audio files, and connect to their mobile phone. This device can be used by students, pupils and employees.”

He went on to say that the device is manufactured in 7 countries. In Asia, South Korea and Iran are the only countries that have acquired the know-how.

The device made by South Korea is not capable of typing Farsi language, so it is unique in terms of covering the Persian language.

Linux-Based Tablet Developed for Visually-Impaired PeopleThe device also allows the blind to receive banking services such as opening a bank account, cash depositing and withdrawal.

The hardware includes Braille keyboard and a monitor and software includes Persian text reader.

According to the CEO of this knowledge-based company, the system provides audio and braille for all visually impaired people in the bank’s branches.

“Using this equipment, the blind person completes the information requested on the form. This information is then sent to the bank’s printer.”

He said banking services for the visually impaired were made available for the first time by the company and at present, 163 branches of 22 banks are equipped with the system.
