                        یک روز، یک دوست غافل

                         

                        به ما خیانت کرد و از اعتماد ما سوءاستفاده کرد.

                        تا یکی از آنها در را باز کند.

                         

                         

                        گاهی اوقات کلید صدم کلیدی است که در را باز می‌کند ...

ده علت ارتکاب به جرم

10 Causes Of Crime

Weakness
People are not bad by nature, but sometimes simply too timid to resist the vicious demons that play on their weaknesses and cut their bond with the source of their Power. Humans are good by default, but not everyone is made of steel so as to defend themselves against the demonic forces - destructive emotions and detrimental attitudes:
fear, ignorance, hatred, worry, revenge, envy, attachment, greed, lust, selfishness, doubt, prejudice, pride, vanity, impatience, sloth, discrimination, arrogance, ambition, addiction, gluttony, criticism, blame, anxiety, frustration and so on.
We all get attacked by those faulty ethereal goblins of our minds and hearts, but most of us succeed to resist them. It's easy to act on anger, greed, revenge or any of highlighted above, but it takes courage and strength to determine that there is something more important than that.

There are two core reasons why weakness prevails with some:
1) lack of faith, not believing enough in the power of one's own internal weapons (against inner demons), such as:
courage, tolerance, understanding, forgiveness, mercy, honesty, sincerity, integrity, honor, modesty, humbleness, generosity, love, compassion, kindness, detachment, patience, self-discipline, temperance, etc.
As a result of not trusting inner resources, there is no enough motivation to develop them and use them.

2) imbalance - most criminals are simply too strong physically, pumping up the body muscles, but not enough the mental and emotional muscles. The reason why their strength becomes weakness is because they are not balanced.
Art Therapy Solutions - get the free artistic crime cure; watch the movie trilogy 'Samurai' by legendary Japanese director Hiroshi Inagaki. It tells the story of the greatest Samurai warrior in Japan - Musashi Miyamoto, his journey from being just a tough warrior to a true hero, equally strong on all three accounts: physical skills, mental calmness and emotional state. Watch all three films online here for free.

Underneath all the weaknesses is a genuine human desire to do well. When we delink ourselves from our source (Higher Power), we find ourselves either in a wrong relationship or in a wrong job, or simply in a wrong place at wrong time, but also in a wrong state of mind - causing us to do the wrong things, on the wrong side of tracks.

Poor judgment
Lack of proper education and great role-models causes many to fail to distinguish right from wrong.
In most cases offenders don't think they are doing something wrong, it seems right from their point of view.
Poor judgment is also reflected in knowing it's wrong, but thinking they could get away with it, not getting caught.
Art Therapy Solutions - get the free crime cure

Lack of love
Being raised in a dysfunctional family, or coming from a disadvantaged background, or feeling discriminated, none of it alone can cause crime. There are so many others in the world with such conditions, but nevertheless don't turn to crime. However they cause the lack of love and respect for others. That, endorsed with some other factors, can be a major issue related to crime.

Poverty
Poverty is often blamed for leading to crime, however underneath is something more vital - society bombards us with commercial values, making us want more and more material things, to the point when some would do anything (including criminal acts) to get them.
Unemployment is another factor in this category that contributes to crime through looking ways to earn money by any means possible.
Art Therapy Solutions - get the free crime cure;
- find the best powerbroker (presented also on the right side) to help you out of poverty into wealth

Deprived neighborhoods
economically impoverished neighborhoods breed criminal minds
Solution: if moving out is out of the question, then keep away from the guys in the hood by making yourself busy with putting your new show on the road. Do you have the strength to distance yourself from the harmful influences of your neighboors? If not, find the strength from the power behind your new thing, which you can discover in the illustrated guide 'Jump'.

TV violence

Being a victim in a chain of events
Sometimes individuals don't mean to cause harm, but are drawn into it by a chain of events that are beyond their control or influence.

Poor parenting skills
erratic or harsh discipline,
lack of parental control, supervision and monitoring,
parental conflict,
family dysfunction/breakdown,
criminal, anti-social and/or alcoholic parent/s
Read more about it from BBC and/or The Independant.
Fatherlessness is also one of underestimated cause of crime. Read more about it by clicking here.
Consider these facts: 

85% of all children that exhibit behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes (U.S. Center for Disease Control);
90% of all homeless and runaway children are from fatherless homes (U.S. Bureau of the Census);
80% of rapists motivated with displaced anger come from fatherless homes (Criminal Justice & Behavior, Vol 14, p. 403-26, 1978);
70% of juveniles in state-operated institutions come from fatherless homes (U.S. Dept. of Justice, Special Report, Sept 1988);
85% of all youths sitting in prisons grew up in a fatherless home (Texas Dept. of Corrections 1992).

Ecological
It has long been known by police officers that cold winter nights keep criminals off the streets and crime levels down. Crime scientists speculate that one of the hidden consequences of global warming will be an increase in street crime during mild winters. Studies have suggested that warmer temperatures boost aggression hormones such as epinephrine and testosterone. More reading.

STORY

"Geraniums of Love"

As the fifth of seven children, I went to the same public school as my three older sisters and brother.  Every year, my mother went to the same pageant and had parent/child interviews with the same teachers.  The only thing different was the child.  And every child participated in an old school tradition – the annual plant sale held in early May, just in time for Mother's Day.
     
Third grade was the first time that I was allowed to take part in the plant sale.  I wanted to surprise my mother, but I didn't have any money.  I went to my oldest sister and shared the secret, and she gave me some money.  When I arrived at the plant sale, I carefully made my selection.  I agonized over that decision, inspecting each plant to ensure that I had indeed found the best geranium.  Once I had smuggled it home, with the help of my sister, I hid it on the upstairs neighbor's porch.  I was very afraid my mother would find it before Mother's Day, but my sister assured me that she wouldn't, and indeed she did not.
     
When Mother's Day arrived, I was bursting with pride when I gave her that geranium.  I remember how bright her eyes were, and how delighted she was with my gift.
     
The year I was fifteen, my younger sister reached third grade.  In early May she came to me full of wonder and secrecy and told me that there was going to be a plant sale at school, and she wanted to surprise our mother.  Like my older sister did for me, I gave her some money and off she went.  She arrived home full of nervous excitement, the geranium hidden in a paper bag under her sweater.  "I looked at every plant," she explained, "and I know I got the best one!"
     
With a sweet sense of deju vu, I helped my little sister hide that geranium on the upstairs neighbor's porch, assuring her that our mother would not find it before Mother's Day.  I was there when she gave my mother the geranium, and I watched them both bursting with pride and delight.  It was like being in a dream I had already dreamed.  My mother noticed me watching, and gave me a soft, secret smile.  With a tug at my heart, I smiled back.  I had been wondering how my mother could pretend to be surprised at this gift from her sixth child, but as I watched her eyes light up with delight as she was presented with that most precious gift, I knew she was not pretending.

ترور دلخراش استادفیزیک دانشگاه تهران دکتر مسعود علی بهمنی

 

TEHRAN (AFP) – Iranian nuclear scientist Massoud Ali Mohammadi was killed on Tuesday in a rare bomb attack in Tehran which the government blamed on "mercenaries" in the pay of archfoes Israel and the United States.

The killing comes amid an increasingly bitter standoff between Iran and world powers over Tehran's controversial nuclear drive, which the West suspects is masking an atomic weapons programme.

Mohammadi, a particle physics professor at prestigious Tehran University, died when a bomb strapped to a motorcycle was triggered by remote control outside his home in northern Tehran, state media said.

"One can see in preliminary investigations signs of evilness by the triangle of the Zionist regime, America and their mercenaries in Iran in this terrorist incident," foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said.

Tehran's chief prosecutor echoed his words, implicating US and Israeli intelligence services.

"Given the fact that Massoud Ali Mohammadi was a nuclear scientist, the CIA and Mossad services and agents most likely have had a hand in it," Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi told the state broadcaster's news service.

Dolatabadi told the ISNA news agency that Mohammadi died when a booby-trapped motorbike parked outside his house exploded as he was getting into his car.

Bomb attacks are rare in Iran although several security officials and members of the elite Revolutionary Guards have been killed in bombings by rebels in restive Sistan-Baluchestan province in the east of the country.

A witness told AFP that Tuesday's explosion was a "strong blast breaking windows in neighbouring houses and cars."

Iran's state-run Arabic-language television Al-Alam identified Mohammadi as a "hezbollahi" teacher -- a term used for staunch supporters of the Iranian regime.

"This assassination may have been carried out by the Hypocrites (Iran's exiled People's Mujahideen opposition) or planned by the Zionist regime," Al-Alam said.

The opposition group denied any involvement in the attack.

"The NCRI has no connection with this murder," a spokesman for the National Council of Resistance of Iran, which includes the banned People's Mujahideen, told AFP in Paris.

Iranian authorities have consistently accused archfoes the United States and Israel of seeking to foment unrest in Iran and the two countries have never ruled out a military strike to thwart Iran's controversial nuclear drive.

None of the reports said whether Mohammadi was connected to Iran's nuclear enrichment programme and a colleague described him as non-political.

"He was a prominent full professor but he was not a political figure. He had no political activity," Ali Maghari, who heads the faculty of sciences at Tehran university, told Mehr news agency.

However, Mohammadi's name appeared on a list of academics backing Iranian opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi for the disputed June 12 presidential election, which gave President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a second term.

The opposition claims the vote was massively rigged in Ahmadinejad's favour and has for the past six months been staging anti-government protests at every opportunity, many of which have been broken up by police who have arrested hundreds of demonstrators.

Hardliners have accused the People's Mujahideen of infiltrating the anti-government protests and carrying out attacks on regime targets.

Iran has been under international pressure to halt its sensitive uranium enrichment programme which is at the centre of fears about Iran's ambitions as the process which makes nuclear fuel can also be used to make atom bombs.

Despite three rounds of UN Security Council sanctions, Iran has continued to expand its nuclear programme, which it insists is for peaceful purposes only.

World powers seeking to curb Iran's atomic drive are still awaiting a response from Tehran to a UN-brokered offer to ship most of Iran's low enriched uranium abroad to be further refined into reactor fuel.

Iran has rejected the offer and has offered its own counter-proposal of a staged swap.

Some Western powers have dismissed the Iranian proposal and insist the Islamic republic accept the UN-backed deal or face further sanctions.

The United States, Russia, China, Britain France and Germany will meet late this week to discuss sanctions against Iran, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said last week
