Although satire is not a new issue in Iran's social history, it enjoys a shorter background in the realm of media. Naturally, the presence of this newcomer in newspapers, has brought new issues alongside itself. Experts have considered two main features or purposes for satire. One is criticism and the other modification. The latter can be considered the result of the first, if everything ends up fruitfully. These two purposes can be thought of as the most effective functions for satire, though overgeneralization cannot be done in this regard either. However, a satirist should be familiar with media ethics, freedom of press, and privacy. He should also know the functional concept of satire and apply criticism and modification principles to his writings. In the present research, we have discussed the effect and role of media ethics in the field of written satire of nationwide journals so as to have paid the due attribute from this viewpoint as well.

An interesting aspect of sociolinguist investigations is the variation of the codes of conduct that different linguistic communities apply in their use of unfavorable or vulgar words when they talk about certain topics. The present study seeks to compare the usage of verbal taboos in the lectures delivered by political and religious figures. The data were collected from television and internet and the taboos were extracted from the two sets of lectures. The results indicated that both groups made use of taboos in their speeches and in both, the general taboos ranked first in frequency. The significant finding is that political lecturers are more cautious with their words, while their religious counterparts use taboos more freely. In the religious group, general and animal taboos ranked highest and psycho-physical and family taboos ranked lowest. In the political group, however, general taboos ranked highest, and sex and animal taboos ranked lowest

Place is not essentially a specific point on the Earth, it is a position in which human values and mental images form. Nowadays, increasing usage of virtual space and transforming human actions and social interactions from real world to virtual one show the increase of time spent in cybernetic world. This study compares the concept of physical and virtual places. It also aims to investigate capability of the conversion of virtual space to virtual place and the possibility of existing sense of place in it. In this regard, after addressing the concepts of place, virtual space and the possibility of transforming cyberspace to cyberplace, perception of place and it’s compatibility with virtual place is reviewed. Succeeding, the phenomenon of sense of place, its levels and then the probability of experiencing them in virtual world is studied. Lastly, after perusal of sense of place components, the comparative comparison between real and virtual sense of place will be cited. Finally, it is concluded that although virtual spaces have the capability of becoming a place, the sense of place cannot be experienced completely in it.

New interpretations of the concept of health and its approaches have been developed with appearance and rise of post modernism in medical science. Complementary and alternative medicine is one good sample of the therapy methods which match the postmodern interpretations. Due to the lack of existence of different types of complementary medicine specifically the music therapy in the universities and shortage of music therapy clinics in the Iranian society, we are facing appearance of websites and blogs on the subject of music therapy in the cyberspace. Considering these limitations, the cyberspace has a considerable role in creating an opportunity for the presence of a discourse which is otherwise marginalised.The possibility of the existence in the cyberspace while there is limited chance of presence in the physical world is a sign of post modernism.The limitations of the real world will of course have an effect on the quality of development of music therapy in the Iranian cyberspace. Therefore the following questions are asked that how the music therapy is introduced in the cyberspace, which characteristics of the complementary medicine are more focused on in the introduction of music therapy in the cyberspace and how these characteristics interact with the modern medical science?The research method adopted in this study is the analysis of quality content. The target research society is the Iranian websites active in the field of music therapy. The sampling method is theoretical (targeted) sampling which was undertaken until the theoretical saturation was reached. Study and analysis of the 11 websites under assessment showed that these websites focused on 7 fundamental characteristics of music therapy for its introduction to the audience including the scientific, historical, therapy, empowerment, healthcare benefit, application integrity and globalisation. Music therapy while trying to gain credit by getting close to the modern medical science, competes with it by focusing on some of its other characteristics and dimensions. Although modern medical science is facing some rival discourses in the cyberspace and silent discourses like music therapy have been able to use this space to compete with modern medical science and be present in the health space, what we used to know as complementary medicine has also been revolutionised and affected by the modern medical science.
