Stephen Colbert’s Super PAC Starts More Than $1 Million

U.S. for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow, commonly known as the Stephen Colbert Super PAC, submitted its contribution report to the FEC this morning at 12:01 AM. The report shows that the Super PAC, which can legally collect and spend unlimited amounts of money to influence US elections, raised $1,023,121.24 in total. 
Stephen Colbert’s quasi-satirical presidential bid has raised serious cash, over $1 million, as of Tuesday morning, the comedian announced.
An announcement on the Web site of Mr. Colbert’s political action committee said the “super PAC” had filed $1,023,121.24 with the Federal Election Commission at 12:01 a.m. on Tuesday.
The super PAC — once known as the “The Definitely Not Coordinating With Stephen Colbert Super PAC,” then the “Colbert Super PAC,” but officially as “Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow” — raised money from viewers to fund things like a commercial shown in South Carolina that equated Mitt Romney with a serial killer.


The 146-page reports lists donors and details expenditures made to influence the outcome of the South Carolina Republican Primary. It is noted that the “Romney the Ripper” ad is formally titled “Strings” that’s credited by some for the sudden turnaround in the race between Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, transforming Romney’s clear lead to a sound drubbing by Speaker Gingrich.
At 12:01 morning, the most famous super PAC in America disclosed its donors for the first time. Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow, the vehicle for much of comedian Stephen Colbert's recent hijinks, disclosed that it had raised $825,475 from its inception in the middle of 2011 through December 31.
While most political observers want to see which billionaires and millionaires are bankrolling the super PACs backing the Republicans competing for the presidential nomination, the Colbert super PAC did not receive similarly super-sized campaign contributions. In fact, 90 percent of the contributions to Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow, which can receive unlimited contributions from individuals, corporations, and unions -- came from donors giving under $250.
Those small donors are not required to be listed on the super PAC's disclosure forms filed with the Federal Election Commission.
Colbert is quoted in the filing saying, ''Yeah! How you like me now, F.E.C? I'm rolling seven digits deep! I got 99 problems but a non-connected independent-expenditure only committee ain't one!''
And according to a South Carolina news web site, the Palmetto Public Record, the super PAC is also reportedly “negotiating a substantial media buy in the Columbia market.”
Stephen Colbert is putting his money where his mockery is — or, at least, his super PAC is.
On his Comedy Central show Thursday night Colbert announced “an exploratory committee to lay the groundwork” for his “possible candidacy for president of the United States of South Carolina.” He also handed control of his super PAC, Citizens for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow, over to his colleague, Jon Stewart, host of “The Daily Show.”

Dutch govt closes Muslim face-covering veils ban by law


Women seeking extended ban that has nothing to do with religion for this modest proposal, they have been intimidated, insulted and threatened
Netherlands plans to ban Muslim face-covering veils next year.


The Dutch minority government plans to ban Muslim face veils such as burkas and other forms of clothing that cover the face from next year.
The ban would make the Netherlands, where 1 million out of 17 million people are Muslim, the second European Union country to ban the burka after France, and would apply to face-covering veils if they were worn in public.


“People should be able to look at each other’s faces and recognize each other when they meet,” the interior affairs ministry said in a statement Friday.
Academics estimate the numbers at between 100 and 400, whereas Muslim headscarves which leave the face exposed are far more common.
The coalition has agreed to submit a new law to parliament next week stipulating that offenders would be fined up to 390 euros ($510), the ministry said.


Verhagen said the ban was intended to ensure that a tradition of open communication cherished in Dutch society was upheld, and to prevent people from concealing their identity in order to do harm.
Wilders, who condemned Dutch Queen Beatrix for covering her hair with a scarf on a recent royal visit to the Middle East, said on Twitter: "Great news: burqa ban will finally come to the Netherlands! Proposal approved by ministers' council. Excellent!"
Maurits Berger, professor of Islam in the contemporary West at Leiden University, said only a few hundred women wear the full face veil in the Netherlands.
The ban will also apply to balaclavas and motorcycle helmets when worn in inappropriate places, such as inside a store, Deputy Prime Minister Maxime Verhagen told reporters, denying that this was a ban on religious clothing.
The Dutch government today promised to ban face coverings, including burqas or niqabs, by next year, reported to media.
The minority Liberal-Christian governing party denied, though, that the law is religiously motivated. The ban will also apply to such things as balaclavas, ski masks and helmets with shields worn inappropriately in public.
The Dutch government Friday approved a ban on face-covering clothing, such as a burqa, a niqab, a forage cap, or a full face helmet, reported Xinhua.
People going on the streets with one of these now risk being fined for up to 380 euros (USD 499).
"It is very important that people in an open society meet each other in an open way," Minister of Interior Affairs Liesbeth Spies said after the cabinet meeting.
People should be able to look at each other's faces and recognize each other when they meet, a Dutch govt approves burqa ban
The coalition has agreed to submit a new law to parliament next week stipulating that offenders would be fined up to 390 euros ($510), the ministry said.
The Dutch government Friday approved a ban on face-covering clothing, such as a burqa, a niqab, a forage cap, or a full face helmet, reported Xinhua.
The burqa ban was already part of the government coalition agreement. In September 2011, the proposal was sent for advice to the council of state, which issued a negative opinion.
The ban will also apply to balaclavas and motorcycle helmets when worn in inappropriate places, such as inside a store, Deputy Prime Minister Maxime Verhagen told reporters, denying that this was a ban on religious clothing.
Geert Wilders’ anti-Islam Freedom Party (PVV), which helps give the Liberal-Christian Democrat coalition a majority in parliament, has set considerable political store on getting the so-called burqa ban passed into law.
However, the cabinet neglected the advice. The cabinet adopted the ban despite grave reservations expressed by the Council of State, the government’s top advisory body and the country’s highest court, regarding its legality and feasibility.
In April last year, France introduced a burqa ban and became the first European country to ban people from concealing their faces in public in many manners.
Statement from the interior affairs ministry said, according to Media.
The Dutch minority government plans to ban Muslim face veils such as burqas and other forms of clothing that cover the face from next year.
The ban would make the Netherlands, where one million out of 17 million people are Muslim, the second European Union country to ban the burqa after France, and would apply to face-covering veils if they were worn in public.
People should be able to look at each other’s faces and recognize each other when they meet,” the Interior Affairs Ministry said in a statement.
Few Muslim women in the Netherlands wear the Arabic-style niqabs which leave the eyes uncovered and Afghan-style burqas that cover the face with a cloth grid. Academics estimate the numbers at between 100 and 400, whereas Muslim headscarves which leave the face exposed are far more common.
The face-veil law, which still needs to win approval in both houses of parliament, excludes clothing worn for security reasons such as that worn by firemen and hockey players, as well as party clothing such as Santa Claus or Halloween costumes.
The ban does not apply to religious places, such as churches and mosques, nor to passengers on airplanes or en route via a Dutch airport, the Interior Ministry said.
Having to wear a burqa or niqab in public goes against equality of men and women, the government said. "With this legislation, the Cabinet is removing a barrier to these women participating in society."
Once the burqa ban passed by the Dutch conservative coalition on Friday is approved by parliament, police will be obliged to enforce it, Security and Justice Minister Yvo Opstelten stresses.
“The minister expects police to enforce the ban in accordance with the law”, Mr Opstelten’s spokesperson emphasised. The statement comes in response to criticism voiced by the National Police Union and the central works council of the national police force that is currently being set up.
The chair of the police works council, Frank Giltay, had said there is no need for a burqa ban, which, he added, is unlikely to have any practical benefits. Burqas, he underlined, do not pose a threat to public security. He criticised the ban as a “symbolic policy”.

Occupy Oakland: Police Use Teargas, Flash Grenades

Police said they used teargas Occupy Oakland protesters pelted near Lake Merritt and warned them with bottles, rocks, burning flares and other objects
At about 3:45 p.m., the crowd still had not dispersed around the intersection of Jackson Street and 12th Street.


Occupy Oakland protesters say they will gather outside City Hall on Saturday, march to an undisclosed vacant building and commandeer the space as a social center and political headquarters for the movement.
Police have used tear gas and "flash" grenades to break up hundreds of Occupy protesters after some demonstrators started throwing rocks and flares at officers and tearing down fencing.

 
Police declared the intersection an unlawful assembly area and began running toward protesters with their shields.
Three officers were hurt and 19 people were arrested, the Oakland Police Department said in a release. No details on the officers' injuries were released.
The crowd grew as the day wore on, with afternoon estimates ranging from about 1,000 to 2,000 people.


Occupy organizers said the plan today was to go to a vacant building that was to be their new home. Once they reach their destination, organizers had planned to kick off a two-day "Oakland Rise-up Festival" to celebrate the establishment of the movement's new space.
Police were in the process of arresting about 100 Occupy protesters for failing to disperse Saturday night, hours after officers used tear gas on a rowdy group of demonstrators who threw rocks and flares at them and tore down fences.
Oakland, New York and Los Angeles were among the cities with the largest and most vocal Occupy protests early on. The demonstrations ebbed after those cities used force to move out hundreds of demonstrators who had set up tent cities.
In Oakland, the police department received heavy criticism for using force to break up earlier protests. Among the critics was Mayor Jean Quan, who said she wasn't briefed on the department's plans. Earlier this month, a court-appointed monitor submitted a report to a federal judge that included "serious concerns" about the department's handling of the Occupy protests.
Interim police Chief Howard Jordan also warned that officers would arrest those carrying out illegal actions.
Oakland officials said on Friday that since the Occupy Oakland encampment was first established in late October, police have arrested about 300 people.

Suicide explosives Car Bomber in Baghdad


An explosives-packed Car bomber suicide killed at least 32 people and injured about 60 in a predominantly Shia Muslim district of the Iraqi capital Baghdad.

 
A security official told Reuters the bomber had initially attempted to attack a police station.
Attacks in Iraq have risen since US troops left last month, with 16 people killed in attacks on Thursday.
Police officials said the blast occurred at 11:00 a.m. in the predominantly Shiite neighborhood of Zafaraniyah, where mourners had gathered for the funeral of a person killed the day before. They said 65 people were wounded in the attack, including 16 policemen.
Hospital officials confirmed the death toll.
Across Iraq, at least 200 people have been killed in a wave of attacks by suspected insurgents since the beginning of the year, raising concerns that the surge in violence and an escalating political crisis might deteriorate into a civil war.
The blast occurred as mourners passed by an outdoor market headed toward a hospital in Baghdad's Zafarniya district to recover the bodies of three relatives shot the night before in the western part of the city, the officials said.
The violence has raised concerns about the ability of Iraqi security forces to ensure order, particularly after the United States withdrew troops at the end of 2011.
The situation has been further inflamed with a political bloc loyal to radical, anti-American Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr calling for the dissolution of parliament and early elections.
Friday's blast is the second deadliest single attack in Iraq this month.
The last U.S. soldiers left the country Dec. 18.

Obama Sings Al Green's At Apollo Theater In Harlem

Appearing at the Apollo Theater in New York Thursday night, President Obama sings Al Green classic 'Let's Stay Together.' He sounded good, but he's no Herman Cain.
President Obama sang an Al Green song at a fundraiser Thursday night, in case you haven’t heard. Well, “sang a song” might be exaggerating; he crooned a few words, really. President Obama has a message to his donors: Let's stay together. While speaking Thursday night during a fundraiser at the historic Apollo Theater in Harlem, the commander in chief showed off some impressive singing abilities. After mentioning that soul legend Rev. Al Green was at the event, Obama belted out a short rendition of Green's classic hit 'Let's Stay Together.'

Net Media News explains that about 1,400 supporters attended the event, which included performances from Al Green and India.Arie. As Politico reports, Obama likely raised at least $3.1 million from his various New York fundraisers on Thursday.
"I...I'm so in love with you," sang the President.

 “Ahhhhm ... so in love with you,” went the leader of what used to be called the Free World.
He did not specify who “those guys” were, at least not on the video made public so far. Perhaps he was referring to Spike Lee and his wife, who earlier in the evening had hosted a dinner for Obama and donors willing to part with upwards of $35,000 per ticket in order to get close to the president.
Remember, we’re making this up – don’t send us emails about how we’re living up to Newt Gingrich’s vision of the news media. If you’ve got other suggestions for songs the president should have tried, please post them in comments. As for ourselves, we’ve gone about as far with this as Pundit Association guidelines allow. Enjoy the show.
Green, of course, is referring to Obama singing part of the first verse of the song last night at the Apollo Theater in Harlem.
Green said, "I was thrilled that the President even mentioned my name, and if the President can get the economy going again and get everything going that he wants to, then we'll all be together." Politics aside, Obama's singing is beautiful or pretty awesome.

___ THOMAS JEFFERSON. He played the violin, and not just to meet women. When he wasn't writing the Declaration of Independence or rewriting the Bible or inventing a four-sided music stand for string quartets, he made music. He played the cello and clavichord, but the violin was his instrument, and he was a ringer for several orchestras. Though often in need of money, he always refused payment.
____ BILL CLINTON. William Jefferson Clinton, not yet president, took a giant step in that direction in June 1992 when he showed up with a saxophone and wraparound sunglasses to play "Heartbreak Hotel" on "The Arsenio Hall Show." ''It's nice to see a Democrat blow something besides the election," quipped the host.
____ HARRY TRUMAN. Nixon was referring to "Give 'em Hell Harry," a Democrat who could never pass a piano without sitting down to play a few bars. In 1952, Truman conducted a nationally televised tour of the newly renovated White House and played a bit on the 1938 Steinway. The building had been condemned when a leg of piano played by his daughter Margaret, a singer whose talent was of some dispute, crashed through the floor of the decrepit mansion.
_____ RICHARD NIXON. He was no Billy Joel. And yet twice in 1974, in the last months of his doomed administration, the President Who Was Not a Crook became the President Who Was the Piano Man. He played "God Bless America" at the Grand Ole Opry, and the same tune when he accompanied singer Pearl Bailey in the East Room of the White House. The two also conspired on "Home on the Range" and "Wild Irish Rose." ''You don't play as well as I sing," Bailey joked, "but I don't sing as well as you govern." She was half right.

Happy birthday is celebrating wonderful ceremony


Human most celebrated or memorable day is  birthday.   It is great to see the continuation of large men communicate media project.  Birthday is many kinds that are BIRTHDAY WISE, WEDDING WISH, RUN/WALK/RIDE WISH, HOLIDAY WISH, MEMORIAL WISH, PERSONAL WISH etc. It’s as critics, but it for sure adds a lot of value.  Even if you do not like or agree with its model or value proposition. Human think it is interesting as an experiment and merits supports for that as well.

 
When Birthday asked for a donation last year, happily contributed.  Shortly afterwards, Men received an email from birthday wedding telling automatic monthly donations.  I think it is good to follow up. Birthday’s crowd-strategy project was a good initiative to engage the community as such and I gather donators can be given an option to happy joining such efforts as well.


The article was crafted in a wedding style which many people will immediately acknowledge, a testament to Birthday’s success.  It’s namely the openness of its model, its accuracy, and decline in contributions and whether it is sustainable remains to be a success story, “it is one of the biggest wedding sites on the human of the World.” Happy birthday wishes.

Martin Luther King Jr. is Memory of 'American Icon'

The great Martin Luther King, Jr. helped turned the tides of history never be altered, but their strength lies in how his wisdom continues to resonate to this day, always giving us a dream against which to measure reality and one to continue fighting for.


Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction ... The chain reaction of evil -- hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars -- must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.
Strength To Love, 1963.
Fly your flag today, in honor of our nation, and in honor of our nation’s honoring the memory and legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 


U.S. law encourages Americans to fly the U.S. flag on holidays and a few other occasions. Congress set aside the third Monday in January as a holiday to commemorate the life of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
To honor Dr. King, for several years civil rights leaders and others have urged us to find some way to serve our communities on this day — Americans have done it long enough to make it a tradition. Here’s the official find-a-way-to-serve page from the the federal government; look out your window, go spend a few minutes at your city hall, post office, or at the biggest church in town, or walk into any middle school in America, and opportunities to serve will caress you at every turn.

 Somehow this madness must cease. We must stop now. I speak as a child of God and brother to the suffering poor of Vietnam. I speak for those whose land is being laid waste, whose homes are being destroyed, whose culture is being subverted. I speak for the poor in America who are paying the double price of smashed hopes at home and death and corruption in Vietnam. I speak as a citizen of the world, for the world as it stands aghast at the path we have taken. I speak as an American to the leaders of my own nation. The great initiative in this war is ours. The initiative to stop it must be ours.

Her support has also extended to the Braintree Historical Society, Friends of Thayer Public Library and activities beyond the town, along with her stories and sense of humor. "She has had a very rich and productive life," Weinberg said.

Michael King, Sr. stepped in a pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church upon the death of his father-in-law in 1931. He too became a very successful minister and adopted the name Martin Luther King, Sr. in honor of the German Protestant religious leader Martin Luther. In due time, Michael, Jr. would follow his dad’s lead and adopt the name himself.
Earlier this winter, for instance, Corcoran dressed up as Santa to charm local kids during Braintree's tree lighting ceremony. He has also served Town Meeting, the Board of Health and the Town Study Committee.
Love and generosity, Mulvey said, are both about commitment, and the Frasers illustrate "love in action."

Heather Locklear hospitalized medically stable resting comfortably

Heather Locklear was hospitalized on Thursday afternoon, reported to have mixed prescription drugs with alcohol.



Heather Locklear was hospitalized on Thursday, after her sister called 911 in Thousand Oaks, CA.
The Associated Press reports that Locklear remained in an intensive care unit Friday. "Heather is still in good condition and she's medically stable, she is resting comfortably," Los Robles Hospital spokeswoman Kris Carraway-Bowman told KABC-TV.Us Weekly has quoted hospital spokeswoman Kris Carraway-Bowman on KCAL-TV as saying on Thursday that Locklear's parents William and Diane "wanted everybody to know that she's doing well, she's fine, she's not in any danger, and she’s healthy."
Heather Locklear was hospitalized Thursday after taking a mix of prescription drugs and alcohol, TMZ reports.
The Melrose Place actress' sister called 911 at approximately 2 p.m., according to the site. The fire department and the Ventura County Sheriff's Department responded to the call and paramedics determined she needed to be hospitalized after an examination.
Melrose Place alums Heather Locklear and Jack Wagner call off engagement
Locklear, 50, recently broke off her engagement to former Melrose Place co-star Jack Wagner.
In 2008, Locklear's doctor called 911 and claimed she was trying to commit suicide after taking prescription medications, but it later turned out to be a false alarm. She was arrested that same year for a DUI.
You, especially considering the former Melrose Place star was taken to an L.A. hospital Thursday evening, according to TMZ. The 50-year-old is "medically stable," her parents Bill and Diane Locklear told People magazine in a statement, and though the nature of Locklear's health-threat hasn't been disclosed, her mother and father told the outlet that "she is in no danger and she's going to be just fine.
Once emergency crews responded to the call, paramedics decided the actress needed to be transported to Los Robles Hospital & Medical Center, where she was admitted awake and responsive, TMZ reports. By 8 p.m., a Los Robles rep told the outlet she had responded to treatment and had her parents by her side.
Fearful that she was going to purposefully OD on pills, TMZ reported at the time. Though emergency workers were sent to check on her, it was just a false alarm. Locklear was arrested in DUI charges outside Santa Barbara, California. The charges were later dismissed when she pleaded no contest to reckless driving, People reports.
Authorities say Heather Locklear was taken to a Southern California hospital for precautionary reasons after an emergency call was made from her home.
Ventura County sheriff's Capt. Mike Aranda says he did not know Locklear's condition but deputies are not investigating. Paramedics and sheriff's deputies responded Thursday afternoon to Locklear's home in Westlake Village, which is 35 miles northwest of Los Angeles.
Locklear and "Melrose Place" co-star Jack Wagner recently ended their engagement. She was previously married to Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora, and they have a daughter together.
Take a look at some photos of Heather through the years.
Heather Locklear was taken to Los Robles Hospital on Thursday after her sister made a panicked call to 911, prompting concern that the former "Melrose Place" star was "out of control" and under a lethal mix of prescription drugs and alcohol. And though her family has reassured the media on Friday that the 50-year-old is "in no danger," they also reportedly want the troubled star to check into a medical rehabilitation center.
months later, in September, Locklear was arrested with suspicion of driving under the influence after a woman called the police with a report that the star had been "driving erratically."
Instead, he cited prescription medicine that "could have impaired ability to drive a motor vehicle safely."
The DUI charge was dismissed in January, 2009, when Locklear pleaded no contest to reckless driving and was sentenced to three years informal probation and a $700 fine.
In November 2011, Locklear and longtime boyfriend Jack Wagner called off their engagement.
A previous version of this article incorrectly stated Richie Sambora as the drummer of the band Bon Jovi. He is the guitarist.

Snow causing numerous Catholic school closings in N.H.

UPON SEEING the closing and merging of many schools by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, one has to wonder why this is being done and what could have stopped it.
With the emergence of the charter schools throughout the city, declining enrollment was to be expected and, of course, increased tuition is always a factor. One factor not brought up by the blue-ribbon commission is the refusal of the Catholic Church to help their own. Growing up Catholic all my life has allowed me to see the church and its vast array of charitable efforts throughout the world.


An early-morning snowstorm in New Hampshire has already caused numerous school closings and delays.
At the Statehouse, House Speaker William O'Brien has canceled legislative business for Thursday.
The snow is expected to mix with or change to sleet and freezing rain over southern New Hampshire.
Here are the list of Archdiocese of Philadelphia's school closings/mergers, announced Jan. 6:
St. Michael the Archangel, Levittown, merges with Our Lady of Grace, Penndel at the Penndel site.
St. Mark, Bristol, merges with St. Ephrem, Bensalem, at the Bensalem site.
Assumption BVM, Feasterville, merges with St. Bede the Venerable, Holland, at the Holland site.
Holy Trinity, Morrisville, merges with St. John the Evangelist, Lower Makefield, at the Lower Makefield site.
On Dec 14th, parents, teachers, community members, and the CTU Community Board (Coalition of the CTU and community groups, including TSJ), w/ support from Occupy Chicago, shut down the Board of Education meeting. A big shout out to TSJ members who attended the vigil in front the Board on Dec. 13, slept out on the sidewalk in front of CPS Headquarters in the rain, brought the campers food and coffee, showed up before 6 Am with more coffee and spirit, and attended the Board meeting.
Lay Catholic females not only represent a large portion of the Archdiocese's population, we also are a huge percentage of decision-makers when it comes to being consumers of Catholic education.
Those of us who are mothers make up a majority of the Archdiocese's customers. Yet, they thought it acceptable to provide only a 6 percent voice to us on their commission.
This begs the question: What consideration was given to the unique perspective that lay female Catholics have (from the perspective of members of the faith community as well as the consumer base) in the commission's findings?

Bomb kills nuclear scientist near Tehran University

Iranian news media: University professor dies when bomb on his car Violence or explodes; device reportedly set by motorcyclist in Iranian capital; local official Disapprobation Israel for the attack.
 
A university professor and department head of a uranium Ornament of enrichment facility was killed by a bomb placed on his car by a motorcyclist in Tehran on Wednesday, Iranian media reported, in an incident that looked similar to attacks on the energy released by a nuclear reaction nuclear scientists in the city more than one year ago.


The semi-official FARS news agency cited witnesses as saying a motorcyclist stuck a bomb on the side of the car which then exploded, killing one and injuring two people inside. Witnesses told Reuters one other pedestrian was killed in the bombing. FARS identified the victim as Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan. State-run Press TV said he was a university professor.

A university lecturer and nuclear scientist have been killed in a car explosion in north Tehran, reports say.

"The bomb was a magnetic one and the same as the ones previously used for the assassination of the scientists, and is the work of the Zionists (Israelis)" FARS quoted Deputy Governor Safarali Baratloo as saying.

The United States and Israel have both denied involvement in any of the deaths, despite both countries' disapproval of Iranian nuclear ambitions, and threats to take action should Tehran refuse to cease nuclear development.

The person killed was identified by several media as Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, a scientist who worked on separating gases at the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, according to the website of a different university from which he graduated around a decade ago.

“This morning a motorbiker attached a bomb to a Peugeot 405, which exploded,” the deputy governor of Tehran province, Safar Ali Bratloo, was quoted as saying by the ILNA news agency.

The blast happened when a motorcyclist stuck a bomb on the side of the car, says Iran's semi-official Fars news agency.

Semi-official Fars news agency reports that Ahmadi Roshan, 32, supervised department at Natanz uranium enrichment facility in Isfahan; Tehran official blames Israel for bombing.

According to the semi-official Fars news agency, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, 32, supervised a department at Natanz uranium enrichment facility in Isfahan province.

Local sources said the blast took place at a faculty of Iran's Allameh Tabatai university.Two others were reportedly also injured in the blast, which took place near Gol Nabi Street, in the north of the capital.

Mr Ahmadi-Roshan, 32, was a graduate of oil industry university and supervised a department at Natanz uranium enrichment facility in Isfahan province, Fars reported.

Several Iranian nuclear scientists have been assassinated in recent years. Tehran has blamed the killings on Israel and the US. Both countries deny the accusations.

Attacks on Iranian scientists
Jan 2012 - Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, a professor at the Technical University of Tehran, died after bomb was placed on his car by a motorcyclist.
Nov 2010 - Majid Shahriari, member of nuclear engineering faculty at Shahid Beheshti University, killed in Tehran after bomb attached to his car by motorcyclist in Tehran. Another scientist, Fereydoon Abbasi Davani - future head of the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran - is hurt in a separate attack

Jan 2010 - Massoud Ali Mohammadi, a physics professor, died when a motorcycle rigged with explosives exploded near his car
Mr Ahmadi-Roshan, 32, was a graduate of oil Industry University and supervised a department at Natanz uranium enrichment facility in Isfahan province, Fars reported.

There has been much controversy over Iran's nuclear activities.
Tehran says its nuclear programme is for peaceful energy purposes, but the US and other Western nations suspect it of seeking to build nuclear deadly weapon.

However, in August 2011, an Iranian man - Majid Jamali Fashi - was sentenced to death for the killing, with state authorities saying he was paid by Israel's Mossad spy agency. Israel does not comment on such claims.
