Just looking at them all makes me feel . . . so . . . so . . . Alaskan.1. Dig for clams. I went clam digging once or twice as a kid and remember it being pretty fun--though I just did the digging part and left the nasty cleaning up to Mom while I played in the lake. Somehow it seemed like a fun thing to do this year so clamming was my contribution to our list. But once all the votes were counted and we'd committed to going I was a little perplexed as to th...

What is Behind the Escalation of Anti-Baha'i Activities in Iran?
2008-05-28 07:05:00 A very revealing and fascinating article, authored by Amil Imani, regarding the background of Iran's president was published in the fall of 2007 in the daily American Thinker. The article carried the title "Who is Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?"In view of the current intensification of Iran's efforts to destroy and eliminate the Baha'i community of Iran, manifested by its most recent action in arresting the entire leadership of Iran's Baha'i community, it may be timely to point out the information contained in that article. It must be pointed out though that Amil Imani is not a Baha'i, but rather is a Muslim, native of Iran.Mr. Imani begins his article by writing:To understand Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's mindset and behavior require close scrutiny of the elaborate and intricate theology of Hujetieh Shiism, perhaps the most fundamentalist of the numerous Shiite sects.In the 1950s, a group of Islamic clergy led by Sheikh Mahmoud Halabi (a close associate of Ayatollah Khomeini...
