Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for improvised fixes, clever storage, new uses for old things, and the small engineering people do without a title.
The anniversary of the 1979 student takeover of the US Embassy in Tehran. The day is marked with anti-American rallies, the burning of flags, and speeches about resistance. The former embassy is now a museum, and the "Den of Espionage" signage is still visible. The day is observed by the government and ignored by most of the population under 40, who were born after the revolution.
