Was that in an airport? In most places tap water is as good as mineral water. :)

Bottled water is the biggest scam of the yuppie 80s decade. Ask any grocery store owner and they will tell you that bottled water is one of their top profit margin items, even better than liquor.

Ironically, it is also one of the worst products environmentally -- one liter of bottled water requires eight or nine liters of water during processing and transportation.
 
the only way chicken can be in short supply(thereby hiking the rates) is if there is an intentional hording , or just plain miss management .
i fail to see how international sanctions would affect the breeding of chicken which is a cottage industry .

Indeed. Two things are causing this problem. 1- Subsidy reform plans. I think electricity consumption prices have gone very high due to subsidy cuts and as incubators consume high amount of electricity it has affected them. 2- Opportunists are trying to benefit from the instability of the economic situation and the government's inability to control it to increase the prices for the sake of their own benefits. Prices could come down very easily if there is a strong will I think, it's not hard at all. Give them subsidies, find the opportunists and imprison them and fine those companies who do not follow the law. As easy as that. The government should carry the burden or else put the pressure on companies if they dare, not on the people.

well according to this

"....Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "country dweller", "rustic"[1]) is a blanket term, typically used to refer to religious traditions which are polytheistic or indigenous....."

there is nothing pagan about ancient Persia

If there was an award to be given as the most ridiculous comment of the week, that would definitely go to you for this beautifully worded comment xD And Pagans don't have priests, just to add.

Pagan in most terms is used to refer to polytheistic religions... Zoroastrianism is the first monotheistic religion on the planet and in that sense is not Pagan.

If you are using indigenous as a definition of pagan, then Islam would be considered Pagan towards Arabs, as would Judaism towards Israelis and so on...
 
Iran Could Ban Images Of People Eating Chicken

Crunch It!, WorldCrunch | Jul. 17, 2012, 2:49 PM

Worldcrunch is a new global news service that for the first time delivers the best foreign-language journalism in English.



As a last resort to fight soaring food prices, a top Iranian official has proposed a ban on images of people eating chicken on television.

National Police Chief Esma'il Ahmadi Moghadam suggested that images of chicken should be banned from state television, fearing that they may provoke attacks on affluent Iranians by the underprivileged, reports the Mehr News Agency,

"Films are the now the window to society, and some of those witnessing the class gap may say: 'We will take our knives and take our rights from the rich,'" said Moghadam.

The price of a kilo of chicken is now hovering at the $5 mark, compared to $2 before sanctions were imposed by Western governments earlier this month as a cause of Iran's continuing nuclear program.

The government has attempted to offer discounted chicken, which attracts queues of up to 14 hours in some Iranian cities. This video posted on YouTube reportedly shows a rush to buy chicken at a state co-operative.


It was also reported that in a recent broadcast of a film first produced in 1986, where one character mentions the price of clementines, the audio was dubbed in order to conceal the truth about inflation.

However, chicken has become the central symbol of the regime's inability to provide affordable food, with many people venting their anger on social media websites. One Iranian Internet activist, Vahid online, sarcastically wrote: "This program may contain images of cooked chicken..."

A blog from Le Monde reports that journalists from the northern province of Gilan were reassured when they learned they would be able to buy discount chicken with their press cards.

Iranian cartoonist Hadi Heidari made a humorous interpretation of the whole situation on his Facebook page with the following drawing.

Mehr News Agency, and Le Monde.

At least the Iranian poor run to make a queue to get chicken at discounted prices. Unlike you lot who crush each other to death to save a few bucks...

Question for Arian: where are you and why do you allow all these wahabis to come here and destroy the Iranian section? When you see something, delete it, give a warnin/infraction. After a while these idiots won't come here anymore. When we go to other sections, a simple matter will get us 2 month bans, while here it's a free for all.

I haven't seen Arian online for a long time. It means the Iranian section has turned into a troll fest. While if you write anything that goes against Turkish or Arab agenda in their sections, you will get monthly ban!

I think we need a second Iranian mod, Era_923? Who is on this site pretty much every day and can get rid of the trolls.
 
Iran should allow me to export an unlimited supply of chicken to Iran from Pakistan.


You can supply them chickens, but you won't get paid. No American or Pakistani bank (based on your flags) will process financial transactions.

Off course if you want to put two live chicken in your suitcase and drive over the border, you could. But that won't reduce the price of poor Iranian chickens.


peace
