Rania, please tell us more about the situation now. I know the food prices got much worse when #Israel and the US attacked #Iran and #Lebanon, but are food prices still rising or are they starting to come down at all?

Is there much crime or violence within the camps, or are things reasonably calm?

How is your tent, and do many other people also have damaged tents?

My question:
What is the normal wind direction in Iran?

Answer:
Generally, winds tend to blow from the northwest to the southeast.

My question:
Are the oil fires still burning in Iran?

Answer:
Yes, as of now, fires at several oil facilities in Tehran are still burning, with reports indicating that some have been ongoing for days

So I guess the nasty black smokes hits the mountains, and will blow into the gulf and gulf countries.

How This Ends: Escaping the Dark Triad

"We have all come across those in our lives who display the characteristics now known as Dark Triad Personality. It's a combination of narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. In short, it creates a person devoid of empathy, and they use manipulation as the preferred tactic to achieve their goals. They do not feel remorse for their behavior, nor do they typically learn

Fuel prices are going up. Exhaust gases harm our health. Every day (incuding yesterday) someone parks next us to and leaves their engine running while they go the shops, eat a pie, or look at their cellphones. Yesterday a diesel ute parked behind us at the beach and the driver left the engine running for over 20 minutes for no good reason. Not enough energy to turn the key. These people are so selfish and uncaring. Why don't they just turn off the ignition? I hope petrol and diesel rise to $5 a litre. Maybe these people would be a bit more concerned about needlessly burning fuel and spewing out health damaging emissions. Diesels are the worst because they release damaging particulate matter. #fuel #pollution #health rnz.co.nz/news/national/590011…
