Since the work of J.J. Heckel (1846-1849), the number of valid species has increased significantly and the systematic status of many of the species has changed, and reorganization and updating of the published information has become essential. Here we take the opportunity to provide a new and updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Iran based on literature and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history and new fish collections. This article lists 288 species in 107 genera, 28 families, 22 orders and 3 classes reported from different Iranian basins. However, presence of 23 reported species in Iranian waters needs confirmation by specimens.

PREFACE For the understanding of the Revelation of John it is essen- tial to put one's self, as far as is possible, into the world of its author and of those to whom it was first addressed. Its mean- ing must be sought for in the light thrown upon it by the con- dition and circumstances of its readers, by the author's inspired purpose, and by those current beliefs and traditions that not only influenced the fashion which his visions themselves took, but also and especially determined the form of this literary composition in which he has given a record of his visions. These facts will explain what might seem the disproportionate space which I have given to some topics in the following Intro- ductory Studies.

Because the presence of female poets in Iranian literature is a relatively recent phenomenon, there are few published studies describing and analysing Iranian women’s poetry; most of the critical studies that do exist were completed in the last three decades after the Revolution in 1979.

I like to think of it as a of so many ideas. The three compositions recorded for this CD, however, are each movie without pictures. During the course of the work, the chapter is read by a narrator clearly inspired by “images.” One work is a meditation on four paintings – images in while music accompanies Daniel’s rich imagery with cinematic gestures.

Never assume you know what happens next. These are the rules for reading Rules of Summer (Arthur A. Levine, $18.99). In this tale of two brothers’ summertime adventures and mistakes, Shaun Tan creates a world in which meteors are caught like fireflies, robots populate parades, Kazuno Kohara animates the sleeping hours in and a giant rabbit menaces those who leave The Midnight Library (Roaring Brook, $16.99), red socks on the clothesline. Tan’s sweeping a charming tale of the nocturnal life of a library surreal paintings pair with sparse text to create and the librarian who shepherds its animal a world of commonplace marvels that invite patrons. Characters will inspire giggles in young the full participation of the reader.

    SIGNS OF THE GODS? ERICH VON DANIKEN TRANSLATED BY MICHAEL HERON Contents 1 In Search of the Ark of the Covenant 2 Man Outsmarts Nature 3 Malta – a Paradise of Unsolved Puzzles 4 History repeats itself 5 Signs of the Gods? Signs for the Gods? 6 Right Royal King Lists 7 Prophet of the past 1: In Search of the Ark of the Covenant Agatha Christie, that incomparable detective-story writer, once gave an interview in which she explained the ideal pattern for a good crime story. She said that only when suspicion was clearly proved so that a criminal with a sound motive could be revealed at the end was a story satisfying and exciting. But she added that the working out of the plot was only convincing if it left lingering doubts after the end of the story. Agatha Christie was talking about fictitious crime. I want to tell you about a crime which actually took place but nevertheless fulfils all the conditions which the grand old lady laid down for a first-class detective story. For me the crime began in a religion class. We were told that God commanded Moses to build an ark. We can read the instructions he was given in Exodus 25, 10. However they cannot have been purely verbal; he must have had a model of the ark: ‘And look that thou make them after the pattern, which was shewed thee on the mount.’ Exodus 25,40 This ark is the material evidence involved in our crime. We must not lose sight of it.

PIMS will receive $1.147-million over three years from the Alberta government agency. AIS focused on PIMS’ established record in mathematical research and education in Western Canada as the reason to renew and increase funding to $1.147-million between 2006 and 2009. With the initial AIS funding in 2004, PIMS developed activities towards mathematical education and outreach in Alberta, demonstrating PIMS’ dedication to developing inclusive programmes for Alberta’s mathematical commu- nity. With the new funding, PIMS plans to increase its commitment to education and outreach in Alberta, and will participate in the AIS’ three major research priorities: life sciences, energy research, and information and communication technologies.
