Colorado City Police are searching for a 13-year-old girl who has been missing since Monday, her parents said.

Right now police say they are just very concerned about Hailey Darlene Dunn and are working to find her.

They have not issued an Amber Alert because there is no evidence of a violent abduction.

Family members have told KTXS News that Hailey was planning to spend the night with a friend Monday night but never made it.
Police have alerted local media outlets in Colorado City to help find her.

COLORADO CITY, Texas -- It's been nearly a week since a 13-year old Colorado City girl disappeared, according to her parents.
Sunday the search is growing as well as the reward to find her.
The Dunn family is pleading for anyone with information about their daughter to call police.

Hailey Darlene Dunn's parents say she disappeared on December 27th and had plans to go to a friend's house, but never made it.

According to a flyer sent to us by a Mitchell County radio station, an anonymous reward that began as $1,000 has now grown to $10,000 and is being offered for Hailey's safe return or information.

Police still have not issued an Amber Alert because they say there was no evidence that she was abducted.

Sunday, family and friends will be coming together to get out the word about Hailey's strange disappearance.
A prayer vigil for Hailey is scheduled at 7:30 at Colorado Middle School, at 312 east 12th street in Colorado City.

Please note that tarot will pick up TRENDS /VIBRATIONS of PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE - it will pick up anything that is 'out there'true news or false news - either way it can throw light on what is 'in the air' - please bear this in mind when you are reading the insights.

It is very important that 'readers' of the TAROT understand this, therefore one has to be very discerning when reading. Media news can put out stories that are not factual or are pre -mediated but Tarot can pick that up. It does,nt mean that tarot is wrong, it shows tarot can see what might be suggested. However when writing the tarot it may be taken as fact.

This little girl is missing since December 27th 2010. I thought I would take a brief look at her case but ask that important notices are read fully on the blogger so that you are aware of what tarot can and cannot reveal. Tarot will give information that is past present or future and this will only validate itself as the full story emerges. Tarot glimpses situations but is not 100 per cent accurate and should not be relied upon for every detail being correct.

The first card I have for Hailey when I ask what happened is really pointing at an abandoned project or situation. Therefore I have assumed the first card is simply showing me that Hailey abandoned the idea of going to her friend. Though I say this tarot has its own mind, this is a pentacles card and talks about physical and material affairs.It just seems that there is nothing to gain on this card and even seems inappropriate for my question. Yet, if we look at the next card 8 of pentacles reversed it does show a child or person who is not happy at their studies and would make me wonder if Hailey was unhappy about school in some way. Also there just seems to be a feeling of dishonest dealings in the card regarding possible finances. I just feel that there is something misleading about this child. There could be a loss of health on this card also and I see a house with a large garden coming into view with a lot of insecurity attached to this. I would place Hailey in a situation where there may be financial problems around someone which created a lot of insecurity and possible threatened loss of home but I dont see that as immediate on the cards more that it may have been a projection of the future.

I feel this child should have had some kind of private education or some different type of schooling though Im not clear why this is showing.

There seems to be a trapped feeling with this child, whether that is to do with homelife or whether it is an actuality and that she is trapped somewhere I cannot be sure but it is here and for me to mention.

I wondered if tarot could tell us where this child is and it is possible that she is with someone of a very arty/music type of nature. I think there are drugs often indicated in this picture but that does,nt mean its to do with her it could be someone around her. She may be South West and this card can show an obsession for something or someone that can relate to anyone either her or another. I seem to see a father figure here and I dont feel there are strangers involved here not sure why and perhaps I may be wrong on that also. Perhaps a father figure 'made her disappear'.

Asking when Hailey will be found we have the Six of Swords reversed and with this card is a feeling that its under six months but I see a lot of trouble brewing in this card in truth and someplace that is either highly emotional or near the coastline. Its possible that this girl will return and I do think two people are aware of where she is also because they took her off in the first place. Possibly a male and a female but she is closer to home then thought. There is a stuck feeling here with no real solution unless a couple of people are prepared to spill the beans.

Its possible I am wrong about matters but I will leave this information here.

This is a very simple and brief synopsis and not a detailed reading.

Stables/Horses/Cattle -Farm land / pasture land away from houses or estates. Low houses/bungalows/cottages - if inside houses, low rooms / cellars/ places low down, near the floor.
Gardens, fountains, bridal-chambers, fair lodgings, beds, hangings,
dancing schools, wardrobes

Deep wells, quarries, mines and places that are involved in the extraction of minerals from the earth or land recently dug.
Places that make you look up. Hills, uneven land - unusual skyline. Airports or places connecting. In houses it might signify the roof, attic rooms, eaves, places towards the upper part of the house
Locations near natural or manmade sources of water supply, fountains or springs. Even vineyards 'or places near a little spring or conduit head'. Inside house can include taps, showers and may be places where all power supplies emerge. Deserts, woods, obscure valleys, caves, dens, holes, mountains, or where men have been buried, church-yards, ruinous buildings, coal-mines, sinks, dirty or stinking muddy places, wells and houses of offices.

Cadaver Dogs Used To Search For Missing Teen Hailey Dunn

12 January 2012

ABILENE, Texas -- After months of little organized effort to find missing Colorado City teen Hailey Dunn, cadaver dogs were out Thursday searching a property north of the town.

Many viewers called KTXS Thursday after seeing searchers on private property near the airport.

MARCH 21ST 2012.

Human remains have been discovered in a pasture 40 miles from Colorado City, Texas, where 13–year-old Hailey Dunn disappeared more than a year ago.
Authorities in Big Spring, Texas, confirmed that human remains were found near the McMahon Wrinkle Airpark Tuesday afternoon. The airpark is about one mile from the home of the mother of Shawn Adkins, Hailey Dunn's mother's boyfriend at the time of her disappearance, and the only named person of interest in the case.

23rd March 2011 - UPDATE

Body found in Big Spring is of a Male.

The Big Spring Police Department has issued the following release regarding the gender of the remains found near the McMahon-Wrinkle Airport Tuesday afternoon:

The autopsy on the remains found in Big Spring, Texas began a short time ago in Tarrant County. Detective George Oliver of the Big Spring Police Dept. is in attendance. It has been determined that the remains are that of a male. As of this time nothing else has been determined and we will put out another release following completion of autopsy and a preliminary report from the medical examiner. No further at this time.

Dee has compiled a map which OUTLINES all the areas that Tarot may be touching on or may be describing. Please bear in mind that this is not guaranteed and Tarot can mean somewhere else entirely.

I do have some old Tarot posts that are dated and will upload.

 Billie Dunn returned to the Big Country this week after skeletal remains were found in a field near Lake J.B. Thomas, about 20 miles from where Hailey Dunn was last seen. Law enforcement continue to try to determine the identity of the remains.

Body found near Rocky Point.

Remains found are confirmed as those of Hailey Darlene Dunn. I did have a few posts on my forum and they are here below which do actually seem to point out a few things in respect of Hailey in quite a correct way. Interesting the link to the RED roof and water/campus as Lake JB Thomas has a red sign.   I note also that Tarot did pull up a Lake in further considerations and actually gave the initials B and J.

Tarot picks out other matters if it is connected to the news of a person - it seemed to pick out the property move of Haileys mother and also it did pick out the body in Big Spring as that was thought to be Hailey see posts and dates below.   There was a reference to somebody having finance difficulties and moving linked to Hailey and you can see that Haileys mother moved.  Quite a few interesting things from Tarot that seem to completely link up with what has occurred. Regarding Location I really feel that Tarot did its utmost to Track Hailey and I feel it gave a fairly reasonable effort.

Meanwhile I am truly sorry that this situation has ended sadly - I do not like to talk about life and death as most people know and I do get very sad when young people are discovered in the way Hailey was. Today I am thinking about her and glad at least that even though it is small compensation that she has been found as so very many are not and still out there somewhere.  My thoughts are for her.  I will update with further news once there are more reports available in the future that may or may not link in with Tarots information.

My confusion about the water element/boats might have been because Lake JB Thomas has had lower water levels compared to the past.

Haileys mother has moved and looks like some of the predictions regarding the property might be validating themselves.

Big Spring was a consideration. We will have to wait until we see whether it is Hailey or not .

Sources say body found in Big Spring is likely Hailey Dunn

Sources close to the investigation say the hair color and height of the remains match Hailey's description. We're told a piece of evidence found on the body links it to Hailey as well."

I appreciate the requests for more tarot regarding Hailey and whether I have seen anything further. I am at an impasse with this case just as I was with Kiesha Abrahams feeling that tarot was telling us the situation and that it would all come about at a later date. In Kieshas case I still have to write up my final synopsis linking in the tarot but have been waiting for the final outcome of the story and 'what happened' in its entirety. That way we can see how or where tarot information may fit in. This is not a new reading below it is based on the above original reading picking out more detail and more explanation that might be helpful and might also be useful to those who have asked for more information.

Now looking at the cards that I have had for Hailey the Fool is the beginning of a Journey. When that is reversed it rather makes me feel that someone did,nt go anywhere so that would automatically make me feel that Hailey did,nt say she was doing this or going someplace (I believe it was said she had told the Stepfather she was going to her fathers?). To me the Fools journey in that respect is being questioned so I would definately feel that this part of the known story is probably not quite the case so if Hailey went anywhere at all I feel that that there is a financial aspect to this as if you look at the seven of wands this is a slow growth card and shows a slow growth of finance, reversed it seems to tell me that someone needed quick money. Drugs are seen in the cards on the Fool reversed and the Fool is linked to the disappearance card the Magician which reversed shows a discrepancy in this disappearance and that in turn links to the High Priestess reversed with the initials B and J on it. Often the B and the J signify either names of places or people and there is also a female element in that card. This card can also show a person in a relationship where they dont make any secret of their feelings as all their feelings will be seen on the surface at some point. I also see that though this card gives us a 'message' that message is not being received, so you see there is something quite wrong about the story that we have had. I did work on a brief synopsis only in the original tarot but still felt that it was giving us all we need to know as an outline to this case. However, I am now elaborating to show you how I came to my brief conclusions.

The next card is the Empress. The Empress is the pregnant mother or the mother of children who is known as the nurturer. She is connected to the spring and also the numbers 244 and the Emperor who is often linked to 'door 4'. A four door? But the Empress and this Emperor who should be reliable nurturing people who stick to the rules as 'parents' are showing up as insensitive non nurturing people. Now this can mean two things. It can mean a very un nurturing mother who does,nt care about anyone and even can 'smother her young' either literally or figuratively and the Emperor reversed is a non - biological father or an adoptive father. This can connect Hailey either to two people who fit this bill in some way or another or it can suggest she is linked to people of this description. The Emperor then takes us to the Pope and it seems to me that some very good advice has been rejected here particularly christian values and someone has lost their way. The Pope reversed is someone who you would think of as a teacher or a mentor but for some reason having that reversed might mean that if they are an actual teacher or mentor that they no longer work in that capacity or at least not at the time they are linked.

Tarot gives all this information and I may not have put it together 100 per cent accurately but I give what I can and the rest just has to fall into place or out of it as the case may be. I see a school or some link to a school in the 7/8 pentacles card which made me comment on the schooling of Hailey and of course we have this teacher mentor situation, so home schooling just seemed to come to mind or the vicinity of a school but Hailleys best interests were not considered here. Then it seems to me that the Lovers reversed is a stalker element but still can link to members of the family or those close to it as there are clandestine relationships involved here and also possible interference by in - laws, quarrels rows and true arguments in love affairs are here in this card as well as many factors and contrarities that are not seen or known so there is a bigger story to Haileys situation and may involve a few other people. I then have the chariot which is a vehicle and when I see that vehicle I think of a car accident or a car crash or something to do with a trashed vehicle or mishap concerning one. I might be completely wrong in this but crashed cars/accidents with cars, or badly damaged vehicles could in fact be in this card. I also see a place that is in town with this card as this card shows going out of the town into the country but there is a distinct reversal of that. The number 7 may be important and of course 7s in tarot are deceitful elements. Therefore again pointing out unknown factors. The Chariot can often be linked to 'films' or videotapes too and I know now that some information has been retrieved off the internet/computers reported in this case from Haileys families house. Therefore lots of different messages from tarot that are not so much forming a story but giving us the GLIMPSES and leaving us to put it together. Following the Chariot card we are not far from somewhere with a water name or somewhere with a stream and it should be noted that some kind of physical health is being debilitated in this card. On health matters alone it can represent pressure to the neck or breathing aparatus or the mouth, or just could represent 'bad taste'.

When we get to the next card we are looking at sexual matters and possibly a person who had a beard that might have shaved it off. The hermit almost always suggests an older man with facial hair who appears around Xmas time, but this is reversed and could be a younger man who is often linked to hills, country, remote rustic places. Trailers and Caravans as homes are often also connected but I dont see him living alone and Im not sure if he has a sexual interest regardless of what it looks like. I could be wrong here but Im looking at the reverse of this. Perhaps it is just a protest of sexual innocence whereby the truth is concealed. But something is hidden in this card and there is incomplete information.

The pentacles cards are very connected to earthly matters, and Agriculture is linked as a rule as some kind of landscape. The first lead up is a Gate or a garden or possibly an 'arch'. This could also lead to a bridge on Two of Pentacles showing someone by water or canal or stream, Im not thinking of that in terms of a large expanse of water because the boats are reversed so Im not thinking its big enough for boats, so a rivulet, creek or a place that holds water. I also get that finances are very bad in the household and a lack of money is a true concern as I feel that the family or people connected to Hailey in family were concerned about losing their property in the future, maybe even wanting to safeguard against that and there being no chance to get money together and the need to consider these factors. Juggling money and finances is difficult and the less mouths to feed the better, this is what all seems to come up yet who is to know which of the insights can lead us correctly all I can do is write them down.

There seems to be a building that could be connected to work that is disused or even one linked again to water and an arch it could even be disused. I feel that Hailey may have been taken there to this place by two people and possible male and female that are linked to her as suggested in my brief reading above. I had the word WELL given to me hence my suggestions in tarot as for name of places, coupled with the Empress I had the Spring making me think of Big Spring or Wellspring but I was not sure whether it was significant for current tense.

Going backwards to the pentacles, and the school link, it could be that Hailey was being 'taught' to do something for money and may not be a school as in the true sense of the word, but a form of 'education' to learn something new that would possibly make money for the family. However, there would be an enormous degree of insecurity on this as the 8 of pentacles shows us that there are underlying motives and a bad smell attached ot it, secret intentions perhaps? and something was incompleted here or perhaps it 'did,nt work'?

Or, that income could not be large enough from it or not received from this strange apprenticeship that I am seeing or this kind of work. We also seem to have agricultural properties in this card and there is a FALCON on the card sometimes this can be useful and othertimes not. North is the card direction but reversed it can give South so you may want to consider it could be either? or each direction contributes to the situation, but so does the South and a link to family ties in the West.

When the 10 arrives it shows us that someone has been kicked out of their house, or they are evicted or that there may be a threat of this in the future and as it is a pentacles card is the reason that made me feel that property finance and matters were going to surface in the future and it seems that not enough work could sustain the financial obligations and the Female Queen needs to be 'kept' or be a kept woman so needs the finances. It seems that with the King of Pentacles coming next that a man is not doing so well with finances and business but the two people seem to be interlinked in some way.

So part of me felt that Hailey is connected to her family home or people to do with her family as to where she was - and I felt that the building is run down or 'out of money' - if it is a business premises I felt with the garden connected it could be an agricultural enterprise or in that setting. So either linked to business or home and I may not be right in this and could have misinterpreted inappropriately. It may even indicate a high space in a building that is 'out of use'. All possibilities to consider.

When we look at the Spades card, we see that we were given six of SWORDS for finding this little girl. The true meaning of this card is 'no forwarding address' and that there is no safety seen in the card and possibly there could be water connected, I sometimes link this to a shoreline but the general feel of the card is non communication and possible in or near water at some point in a totally unprotected environment.

If we go back to look at the run up elements, we could have situations of cutting, drugs, marijuana, problems with breathing or respiration and no doctor available or no ability to get the drugs needed. That can mean medically or otherwise. . A standoff between two people who have clearly rowed and had fights about a matter likely to do with these drugs which might be imported from somewhere like Sweden or Amsterdam that is not to be taken as an actual fact incidently, but there is an impasse here and two people have to come to some kind of agreement as to how to get this 'medicine'. Then we have seperation coming into view and someone being lost or 'mislaid' for a time which might imply a reference to Hailey herself and the four of swords which shows that someone needs to recouperate and get some healing. However, Im feeling that 'someone comes back' in this card after having been away for a time but I see more altercations and fights being broken up here and somehow some bad dealings are being avoided and no slander is attached but again I am seeing something to do with water and being overpowered. Then we come to the six of swords which though is primarily an East direction, can mean WEST, the seven shows us a person coming back and giving something that has been stolen or taken, returning stolen property that was taken by a thief and two people were most certainly knowledgeable about this as I concluded in my first tarot.

We also then see a 'release from prison' so that is very interesting because it could mean that Hailey is 'imprisoned' somewhere and has to be set free again its a scenery where there is a building, even possibly with a red roof, and maybe water nearby. The 9 reversed shows that a catastrophe could be averted but that does,nt mean I can declare that Hailey is alive I cannot be sure of this at all at the current time but she should be found in the very early part of the day at Sunrise and West possibly just a little away from a river or body of water of some description or a place that is named after a water name.
East West comes up on this card primarily EAST as a swords card generally appears to always be East but the West elements have to be considered as its reverse direction. The 10 shows us a possible 'container' or a contained environment it may be something that hides or wraps up a person but the idea is that they are 'contained' and the next card could allude to to a love rival who spied. 9 of Swords often shows a bedroom scene at one point which I will mention. I have a whole heap of messages in each card that have to be unravelled with possible validations once the case comes to a close. Im afraid that is the only way of knowing which of these situations actually apply and of course there is also PAST, PRESENT and future elements to take into consideration whereby any of the events can be part of these timings and again some of it 'white noise' in the background of the situation not productive on the surface.
The Queen of Swords leads me to sense that a woman did not want to be alone and did,nt like being alone, she had already suffered disappointment in relationships and was not wishing for this to occur again, therefore might protect her relationshiop at all costs, the King of Swords is just basically not a nice guy and might deal with drugs in an unsolicited way. Hailey seems to be attached to all of this Im afraid.

It is quite acceptable that tarot may have certain points wrong and I would certainly not wish to allude to finger pointing because tarot is not there for this reason, it is to try to find a child. Tarot does reveal much information as background in order to find that child and even if Tarot is unable to physically name a location, does attempt to give enough clues that might help to build a picture as that is what tarot does, it builds a pictorial journey.

The six of Swords seems to suggest to me that the number 6 must be important for the FINDING of Hailey and as it refers to months, it could be suggesting that Hailey would be found under six months linked to a location that may have something to do with the word Water and possible in a West direction rather than East. It cannot guarantee the physicality of Hailey and it is not something I would wish to suggest either way. Finding a child is the important matter here.

The Fool card seems to give/allude to music arts and painting, open spaces, landscape, drugs, people with no money or those who lose their possessions and have their journeys and travels pitted with problems. There seems to be warnings written all over this card, and it could be that drugs might have had warnings attached to them. I also have a campus in the cards linking right in with the fool and the last Sword card, therefore somewhere near a campus may be of interest also in connection to Haileys whereabouts.

I hope I have tried to cover more in depth details of the original tarot as that is what I am presenting here. All tarot reports are generally written IN BRIEF and I sometimes leave it as a Brief reading as it 'says what I feel is the crux of the matter'.

I have pointed out POSSIBLE further detail which may not ALL APPLY so please be careful when reading and take into account that I do NOT claim that all will be applicable as I have to make educated decisions with tarot and intuition on the matter. I do not feel there is any need for a further reading and you will see having read this very deep explaination of my intial cards that it does cover quite a lot more information but does not really stray from the original reading and I do not think we need to dig deeper into the matter at the current time. I am quite sure I may still have missed out certain points but I try to remember all the card detail as best as I am able.

My wish is for Hailey to be found within the time limit suggested as it is never good when a child is lost for long periods without closure. To find a child is to bring them home.

School Releases Video of Hailey Dunn
Reported by: Laura Kellerman
Tuesday, January 25 2011

A picture might be worth 1,000 words, but sometimes a video of a person can give you a much better idea of what they look like. has obtained the surveillance video that Colorado Middle School handed over to investigators on Jan. 11 to give them another perspective on Hailey Dunn's appearance, mannerisms and gait.

The grainy video was recorded in the hallways of the school prior to Hailey's disappearance on Dec. 27. The two clips show her both with her hair up and with her hair down and in two different outfits.

I have been doing a bit of thinking regarding Hailey. Tarot seems to give us everything that could be part of past present and future - and sometimes its left so that I have to figure out places because Tarot does not give names.

But, I am wondering about campus or camps. I also am looking at the water in the six of swords. Im not sure how strong I felt about that card as a place - I was lookng at it more from when Hayleigh would be found.

If I was to look at it as a place - it would be a lake or big expanse of water. The Fool gave me North West but I felt it was more West. However, North was also on the Pentacle card but was telling us not quite North. So I then looked at the six swords which is normally East but that is reversed -. Im wondering if this girl might connected to boats on a shoreline or on a lake or even have been in a boat.

There is one other thing , one of the other scenarios is not having the same name anymore = no name, no number, no forwarding address - too many hindrances/obstacles and problems . If the Fool has no name and no number, perhaps somehow Haleigh's identity has been obliterated somehow. Queer thought but I will mention that.

  7. We need an update for Hailey so her killer can finally be locked up for good after getting away with this crime all these years! Justice for Hailey

  8. 10/22/2012: Colorado City, Texas: Missing Hailey Dunn Case Update: Authorities confirm they are looking into detailed allegations written in a letter from a woman jailed on drug charges. That woman, Sonja Renee Callahan, claims to have seen a girl fitting Hailey's description being held against her will in a West Texas home.

    Callahan was being held on drug charges in a lock-up in Odessa Texas and
    that's where, four months ago, she wrote the letter and sent it to family members here in Abilene. Those family members shared the letter with investigators and they tell us some of those leads have proven to be valuable, and some have not.

    Callahan's letter reads as a disturbing narrative of events that took place in January of 2011 which lead to the death of the unidentified young girl who, the letter states, would be 15 now.

    The letter never says the name of the young girl. However, if the events are accurate, the timeline, location, as well as the girls age, coincide with Hailey's disappearance when she was 13-years-old in December of 2010.

    The description of the girl mentioned in the letter also fits that of Hailey.

    As another, final hint, that Callahan believes the girl may be Hailey Dunn, the letter goes on to claim it is tied to a case that is big news all around the country.

    Callahan's letter states that the girl was kidnapped, kept in a house and died of an accidental overdose of certain drugs given to her by her captors to keep her compliant.

    Callahan claims that she tried to help the girl, but was prevented by others involved and that, now that she has written her confession, she feels some semblance of peace and can finally sleep.

    ** Editor's Note: Our news staff uncovered this new avenue of the investigation more than two months ago. We immediately took our information to investigators who asked us to not release the details because it could harm their investigation. Within the last 24 hours, we have been assured by investigators that our reporting of these details will not negatively impact the case.

    Look for many more detailed stories on these new developments here on under the Find Hailey Dunn Link at the top of the page.

    Scurry County Sheriff Trey Wilson and officials from Scurry County, the Texas Department of Public Safety – Texas Rangers and the FBI will hold a press conference today at 4 p.m.

    Source close to the investigation say the human remains found in Scurry County on March 16th have been identified as missing Colorado City teenager Hailey Dunn.

  10. We have preliminary report that Texas officials are set to announce that the remains found in Scurry County are those, indeed of missing 13 year old, Hailey Dunn.

    This is the county in which Shawn Adkins was noted as truthful when he told investigators where to search for her, in January of 2011.

European tourists of Iran tripled

News ID: 2882557 -
TEHRAN, Aug. 13(MNA) – An Iranian official released the figures depicting growth in number of Europeans visiting Iran.

Deputy Head of Iran’s Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization (ICHTO) announced that the number of European tourists visiting Iran in last Iranian year (March 21, 2014- March 21, 2015) in comparison with the year before has tripled.

Dr. Saeed Shirkavand made the remark in western city of Sanandaj while contributing the upping trend partly to the visa-issuance policies of the recent years.

Referring to world-wide growth in tourism, Shirkavand urged more measure to be taken to develop the industry in Iran.

The Deputy Head of ICHHTO stressed that President Rouhani values tourism too much and is firmly determined to consolidate the tourism infrastructures in Iran.

On Monday, the Head of Iran's Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization (ICHTO) and Vice President Massoud Soltanifar recounted that 5.1 million foreigners visited Iran in 2014 while the number is expected to reach 20 million by 2025.

Earlier on August 4, the official broke the news that Iran issues 30-day visa for all coming tourists at all ports of entry into Iran with 15 days more allowance in comparison with formerly 15-day stays.

“Iran’s 20-year vision plan targets attracting 20 million tourists by 2025 which will earn the country $30 billion,” IRIB news had quoted Soltanifar as saying in May. Iran has attached considerable significance to developing its tourism industry in recent years. The country is seen as one of the world’s top potential tourist destinations as it holds countless ancient sites.

Iran hosts Asia’s 4th and the Middle East’s 1st largest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is home to 17 historic sites which have been inscribed on UNESCO World Heritage List, and has a diverse landscape and its tourism industry offers a myriad of recreational opportunities.

They range from hot mineral water showers in the northwest to hiking and skiing in the Alborz Mountains to magnificent architectural sight-seeing in the center and beach holidays in the Persian Gulf and the Caspian Sea.

Apart from its glorious ancient sites, the country’s allure lies in its people’s reputation for hospitality.

Thinking through sharing

When I attended to URD (University of Religions and Denominations) I was thinking that I have to pass twoooo years to finish my MA in Abrahamic Religions, but now I see myself standing at the end of a long way that I can’t remember how I passed. These two years happened faster than I expected. Now I have only two and half month to choose the topic of thesis. And to be honest, I don’t have any clear concern that I need to follow.

I talked to some friends of mine and I realized that they have the same problem. So, we decided to set up an everyday-workshop and meet each other regularly to solve the problem.

I had this experience with my wonderful teacher, Mrs. Ghahramani about how to use WEB (I will explain it) to find the main question of yours about any field. So, we started our meeting based on this method. And we also agreed about the language; it has to be English so we do two thing at the same time– writing our thesis-es and improving our English skills.

How the method works? It’s very simple. You write the main topic(s) you think that it/they may be your concerns, on a piece of paper or on a whiteboard. Then you connect these topics together with line(s). Then you think about every topic and let your mind goes wherever it likes, under those topics.

My simple mind map
I made this map by using a free program named "VUE"

Whatever comes to your mind about any of those topics, you have to write it down and connect it to the other topics by lines again. and go on. After some minutes of thinking and drawing lines, you will have a paper or whiteboard full of topics and lines that they are connected to each other from different ways. Actually by this, you help your mind look at itself from the outside. You may have some thoughts in the darkness of your mind, but you can’t talk about them before they come out and appear on a white piece of paper. After some times of doing this, you may find your main question. And when you find your question, you can start your research.

Anyway, we’ve already have 3 sessions til now and in fact, it goes well. We are now closer to our questions and we hope to find it soon. I’m focusing on new media and religion, special internet, blogging and social networking. Mohsen is working on missionary in Islam and Christianity. Mehdi now know that he is interested in culture and religion. Ahmad thinks about gender and religions. And finally Miss. Kazemi is in a favor of religions, culture and politics. I think it is a good advance toward our goals.

If you are interested in using VUE to make your own mind-map, yon can download it for free from here.

Teacher runs for mayor of Italian city to make politics ‘sexier’

“With me the city will be much sexier” claims ‘the porno professor’

An Italian teacher dubbed “the porno professor” because of her revealing outfits has decided to run for mayor in the city of Pordenone in north-east Italy to make politics “sexier”.

Anna Ciriani, 47, teaches Italian language, history and geography at a night school for adults and she has earned her nickname because of the provocative clothes she wears and the photos she posts on social media, as The Sun mentions.

Ciriani announced her decision to run for mayor on her Facebook and Twitter accounts saying: “I want Pordenone to shake off the old politicians and adorn itself with new faces! With me the city will be much sexier! We have to make the city sexy and colourful! We just have to be united and determined!”

Her way of life, though, has caused reactions, while in 2007 she was suspended from her teaching job for walking almost completely naked in Berlin during an erotic fair.

Speaking of the suspension, she said: “I was suspended because I was walking naked in Berlin during the erotic fair; on a street where minors were forbidden to go. This I did in my private time.”

“Yet a teacher was filmed beating and spitting in the face of the children in a nursery. But she was only suspended for five months, it’s shameful! Who knows what psychological consequences this had for them.” she said.

After being suspended, Ciriani transferred to a night school for adults specializing in helping Muslim refugees to learn the Italian language and culture, while she has also written two books, one about Napoleon and another about World War II.

Ramey, Estelle R.

women university stress national

Born Stella Rosemary Rubin, August 23, 1917, in Detroit, MI; died of complications from Alzheimer’s disease, September 8, 2006, in Bethesda, MD. Endocrinologist. Estelle R. Ramey, an endocrinologist, was best known for her public challenges to society’s myths about the physiological—especially hormonal—differences between the genders as they relate to political and social roles. In 1970, she came to national prominence for stating that there was no hormonal reason for women not to hold executive positions, including the presidency, which led to her nicknames “Mort Sahl of the women’s movement” and “George Burns with an X chromosome.” Endlessly quotable, Ramey was a popular feminist speaker on related topics and drew on her own background as a respected female scientist to support her views.

Born in 1917 in Detroit, Michigan, Ramey was the daughter of Jewish immigrants. Her father was a gambler while her mother, a native of France, was illiterate. The family, which included two siblings, moved to Brooklyn when she was infant. Ramey’s father died when she was an adolescent, but her mother emphasized the importance of education and her daughter’s ability to do anything despite their impoverished existence.

Ramey was a gifted student who was able to skip more than one grade. After graduating from high school at the age of 15, she entered Brooklyn College. Graduating in 1937 with bachelor’s degrees in mathematics and biology, Ramey was hired as a chemistry teacher at Queens College while she earned her master’s degree in chemistry at Columbia University. She completed the degree in 1940.

After marrying James Ramey and moving with him to Knoxville, Tennessee, in 1941 so he could work for the Tennessee Valley Authority, Ramey experienced discrimination. She applied for a position teaching chemistry at the University of Tennessee, but was turned down because its chairman believed she should be taking care of her husband at home. When World War II started and the military draft decreased the school’s faculty, the then-pregnant Ramey was offered a position but only at 33 percent of the pay of the man she replaced. Despite the pay, she took the job.

When World War II ended, the Rameys briefly moved to Washington, D.C., before her husband’s new position at the Atomic Energy Commission required a move to Chicago. There, Ramey earned her doctorate in 1950 from the University of Chicago. Her thesis focused on how stress responses are related to the nervous system. After completing her Ph.D., Ramey spent around six years teaching at the University of Chicago’s medical school.

In 1956, the Rameys moved back to Washington, D.C., where her husband had a new job. Ramey took a position at the Georgetown University School of Medicine where she spent the rest of her career. There, she taught physiology and biophysics, while she continued conducting research in endocrinology. Her research continued the work she began on her thesis: looking at how stress hormones affected both men and women. She was also an expert in other bodily hormones.

Over the years, Ramey expressed frustration that the male-dominated scientific establishment would not look at the similarities and differences in how the sexes were affected by stress hormones and related phenomenon. She believed that such studies could help both genders live better, longer lives, in part because, on average, women have a lifespan that is seven to nine years longer than men. Ramey’s own work also found that the female of all species are tougher overall than the male counterparts, even in terms of stamina.

In 1970, Ramey took a very public stand on the matter when an official of the Democratic National Committee, retired surgeon Dr. Edgar F. Berman, stated that hormone fluxes brought on by menstrual cycles and menopause made women unsuitable for higher office. She responded to this slight in a letter published in the Washington Evening Star . Ramey pointed out that President John F. Kennedy suffered from Addison’s disease, a hormonal imbalance disorder requiring medication that could cause mood swings, and he handled both the presidency and the Cuban missile crisis with this condition. Ramey also noted that her studies found that women handled stress better than men in physiological terms.

Building on this moment, Ramey launched a career as an educating yet witty public speaker. She first debated Berman at the National Women’s Press Club, and was declared the winner by the Washington Post . Berman was soon forced to resign from the Democratic National Committee. Ramey continued to speak all over the United States on women’s issues. She was also author of numerous articles for publications, including Ms. , as well as two books.

Ramey was also respected in the academic and medical worlds. She was a founder and one-time president of the Association for Women in Science, an advocacy group, and a former member of the President’s Advisory Committee for Women. She retired from Georgetown in 1987, but continued to speak to both academic and lay audiences for years. Ramey also regularly attended Renaissance Weekends which were brought to prominence by President Bill Clinton during his time in office.

Ramey died at the age of 89 on September 8, 2006, at her home in Bethesda, Maryland, of complications from Alzheimer’s disease. She is survived by her husband, her daughter, Drucilla; her son, James; and five grandchildren.

Related to Cognitive disorder: Cognitive distortions

the mental act or process by which knowledge is acquired, including perception, intuition, and reasoning

The internal structures and processes that are involved in the acquisition and use of knowledge, including sensation, perception, attention, learning, memory, language, thinking, and reasoning. Cognitive scientists propose and test theories about the functional components of cognition based on observations of an organism's external behavior in specific situations.

Cognition throughout life can be broadly described as an interaction between knowledge-driven processes and sensory processes; and between controlled processes and automatic processes. Over time, there is a trade-off between the amount of surface information that is retained in the internal representation of objects or events (bottom-up processing) and the amount of meaning that is incorporated (top-down processing). Following exposure to a stimulus, a sensory representation (sometimes called an image, icon, or echo) is constructed that encodes nearly all the surface characteristics of the stimulus (for example, color, shape, location, pitch, and loudness). The information is short lived, lasting less than a second. Much evidence suggests that extraction of information from this representation takes place in two stages, a feature analysis stage and an object recognition stage. It is during the latter stage that attention (controlled processing) and previous knowledge come into play. See Memory, Perception

Conceptual knowledge is needed to classify objects and events in the world. Some aspects of conceptual knowledge are innate or emerge very early in development, while others are acquired through learning and inference.

A primary cognitive function of all social species is communication, which can be accomplished by a combination of vocal, gestural, and even hormonal signals. Of all species on Earth, only humans have developed a communication system based on abstract signs. This evolutionary development is closely tied to the greater reasoning capacity of humans as well. All reasoning can be broadly described as pattern recognition and search. Conceptual knowledge base are searched for relevant information in order to draw a conclusion, solve a problem, or guide behavior. Thinking often takes the form of a chain of associations among concepts in long-term memory, with one thought retrieving others to which it is related. The most common reasoning strategies include direct retrieval, imaging, means-ends analysis, analogy, classification, deduction, and formal procedures.

Reasoning by direct retrieval involves retrieving a known fact from memory to solve a problem. Reasoning imagistically involves constructing or retrieving images from conceptual memory and examining or manipulating them to solve a problem. For example, individuals reason imagistically when they determine how many windows there are in their living rooms by retrieving an image of the room and counting the windows in the image.

Means-ends analysis is typically employed when solving problems in unfamiliar domains. When a solution is not immediately apparent, reasoners typically compare the goal to the current situation and select means with which to reduce the differences between the two situations.

The restructuring of a problem representation that allows an available means to be used in a novel way or a seemingly unrelated bit of knowledge to be accessed to solve the probem is called insight.

Reasoning by analogy is used when a current situation allows an individual to recall another, similar situation that has a known solution or other information relevant to the task at hand. It is a technique that is powerful but error prone.

Reasoning by classification involves making inferences about an object or event based on its category membership.

Deductive reasoning involves drawing a conclusion based on its logical relation to one or more premises. A second common use for deduction is testing hypotheses.

Formal procedures for reasoning and for solving problems include logic, mathematics, probability theory and statistics, and scientific investigation. Understanding of the behavior and properties of physical, biological, and cognitive systems has been greatly enhanced through the use of these techniques. See Psycholinguistics

By using noninvasive techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET scan), magnetic resonance imaging, electrical skin conductance, invasive surgical and chemical investigations of animal brains, and data from clinically observed syndromes associated with brain injury, cognitive neuroscientists have pieced together information concerning the role that specific brain regions play in the processing of emotional and cognitive events. High-level visual processing, such as object recognition, takes place in the occipital lobes of the cortex, although recognition of certain highly complex visual stimuli, such as faces, is handled by the right cerebral hemisphere. Auditory stimuli in general are processed by the temporal lobes of the cortex, and written and spoken word recognition and syntactical components of language processing are handled by certain regions of the left hemisphere of the cerebral cortex, notably Broca's and Wernicke's areas; while emotional, idiomatic, and prosodic aspects of language are handled by corresponding regions in the right hemisphere. Higher cognition, such as reasoning and problem solving, involves the frontal lobes of the cortex. Memory and the processing of emotional stimuli are handled by the combined effort of the cortex (notably the anterior and frontal regions) and subcortical structures (notably the limbic system).

One particular subcortical structure—the hippocampus—plays a major role in the formation of new explicit memories. It is believed that an intact hippocampus is needed to temporarily bind together distributed sites of activation in the cortex that together make up a whole, explicit memory for an event. See Brain

Theories of cognition are often tested by building computer models that embody the theories and then comparing the model's performance with human performance on selected tasks. These models tend to be of two types. Rule-based models consist of a long-term memory containing rules which specify actions to take in the presence of particular input patterns, a short-term memory that encodes input patterns and temporarily stores data structures constructed by the rules, and a control structure that guides the process and resolves conflicts when more than one rule applies to the current input. Neural network models simulate cognition as a strengthening and weakening of associations among cognitive events. They consist of a network of interconnected nodes, a mathematical formula for modifying the connections, and a mathematical formula for propagating activation through the network. See Intelligence

the thinking process. Mental life can be considered as comprising both thinking and feeling elements: the cognitive and the emotional aspects of experience. Cognition is concerned with perception, memory, language, and problem solving. See also COGNITIVE SOCIOLOGY and COGNITIVE ANTHROPOLOGY.

And you thought it all started after Culloden??

Think about it.
Ever since starting to write in this blog we have mixed a number of historical accounts in an effort to highlight some historical facts. Of course history can be distorted and the longer the event disappears in the mists of time the easier it is to allow it to be portrayed in the light of those who or for whom it’s compiled for....
The story of MacBeth as told by Shakespear that engish of english playwright is a prime example of this. Yet that story was written to ensure his master James VI a Stewart and formerly a King of Scots guaranteed his lineage into the mists of time at the expense of an evil tyrant in MacBeth.
How true is the statement  “Kenneth MacAlpin united the Picts and Scots as the first King of Alba? How true did the race of Alpin want it to be as the succession of primogenitor became the fashion of their sons? Why was Giric written out as an almost non-event during the feuding years of kingship. Yet MacBeth as King of Fortrui became High King of Alba and in a so called “Dark Age” travelled a pilgrimage to Rome secure in the knowledge that his kingdom was safe (for the time being). Yet it was MacBeth who invited Osbern Pentecost (how many have heard of this guy) and his kind to Alba as he saw the rationale behind the granting of lands to Norman knights in an effort to buffer warring tribes.
Let’s look at how Scotland became what we know of it today. Why is it that the popular language is a form of english known as Scots. Certainly the broader and unintelligibly english the Scots becomes the better but there is no hiding its origins. The thirst of these early medieval kings saw the “anglo saxon” Lothians added to the emergence of Scotland the nation and not long afterwards the British of Strathclyde. Yet over the centuries the dominance of the anglified Scots secured its capital at its anglified centre, Edinburgh south of the Scot Water. Highland and Lowlands were born. A simple division to them in both language and dress easily exploited and guaranteed that Scotland would never be united as one. Yet given the extent of the “Highland Problem” over many centuries since and the part played by the Royal decedents of one these Norman families who would have thought that a Stewart would lead a predominately Highland army through the gates of Edinburgh the capital of the state hell bent on crushing the “Highland Problem” in the last conflict on these shores.
A few generations of the James years and the divisions were still the same. Plenty attempts at pacification but to speak the so called “erse” meant that you were a barbarian, a heathen, a savage, Edinburgh’s state ensured that even to this day the Gaelic language is kept in its minority that almost saw it exterminated. The answer for the IV one was to marry into english royalty of course it was not a new thing but by the time the VI one came along it guaranteed him a route to the english throne on the death of a childless Elizabeth. The easy option and down South to rule he went. This assured the birth of a Great Britain and paved the way for a United Kingdom so long the aim of those of the Southern persuasion.
“An un-equal union” I hear the words of Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun, oh yes how true these ring. But our history books are full of the failures of Darien the romanticism in failure of a so called “Bonne Prince” and the clearances started on the final bayonet thrust of a desolate Drumossie Moor. Aye Right!!! We posted many months back a photo of the so called Chiefs standing with that scion of the House of Hanover, Prince Charles. Yet how many of you realise that some of the race of these so called chiefs were already plotting the removal many of their clansmen long before that final bayonet thrust, your gallant, Lochiel being just one of them. These chiefs were rapidly becoming the saxon landlords of a state now sitting in London. Out of it came eagle feathers, tartan and a desire to feature on the front of a shortbread tin. An Empire was building......
Today we stand in the remnants of this Westminster state which spawned that empire. You and I together, stuck in a mire of a feudal society, stuck with a corrupt political system, stuck with a devolved parliament based on Westminster rule, stuck with banks that can manipulate, stuck with a House of Lords and jobs for the boys, stuck in a materialistic world where the more you get the more you want, stuck with a society that breeds poverty for political gain and most of all stuck with London Rule.......
We will leave you with a touch of prose from a not so well known poet Vagaland. Your future begins with Ending London Rule let’s start it on May 6th. And move what we have of Scotland into a new era, one that harks back to the “Land that was once Free”....END LONDON RULE AND LIVE A FREE SCOTLAND...
“Trowe wir minds wir ain aald language.
      still keeps rennin laek a tôn
Laek da laverik ida hômin,
    sheerlin whin da day is done
Laek da seich o wind trowe coam
    at da risin o da môn.
Hit’s da skriechin o da swaaable,
  an da kurrip o da craa,
An da bulder o da water
  In aboot da brakkin baa.
Hit’s dad under o da Nort wind
  whin he brings da moorin snaa.
Hit’s da soond da sheep maks nyaarmin
  whin you caa dem on afore,
An da noise o hens, a claagin,
    layin Peace-eggs ida Voar,
An dag alder at da dug gies,
    whin a pik comes tad a door.......
Things at maks dis life wirt livin,
   dey’re jôst laek the strainin-post;
Whin he’s broken, hit’s no aeasy
   Getting new-eens – an da cost,
Hit’ll shôn owergeng da honour
  If da auld true wyes is lost......
