Full text of the diary:

Dr. [Abdullah] Jasbi, [the president of the Islamic Azad University], came and told me about the harassment of some students at the instigation of Mr. [Mostafa] Tajzadeh, [Deputy Minister of Interior], in order to disturb the admirable calm of the students of the Azad University and to disrupt their conspiracy, and asked me to participate in the students' wedding ceremonies. 
On the evening of the marriage contract [Mr. Mojtaba Allahverdi], I closed the marriage contract with one of the employees of the Expediency Council.

Dr. [Saeed] Sohrabpour, President of Sharif University, Engineer [Seyed Reza] Sajjadi, Head of the Advanced Technology Attraction Institute, and Engineer [Serajoddin] Kazerooni, [Head of Pardis Technology Park], came. Regarding the Pardis Science Park, they explained that it is 20 hectares and becomes something more than a park and less than an industrial park. Mr. Kazerooni reported on the Isfahan Science Park, which was established in the construction government. I reminded him about the completion of the project of the shrine of Qom.

Mr. Mohsen Rezaei, [Expediency Council Secretary and former Commander of the Revolutionary Guards], who had gone to Kerman for the crash of the Ilyushin [Corps] and visited the crash site in the Sirch Heights, said by telephone that the villagers of the area said that they had seen the plane before it crashed, and that there were lights from inside it, such as a spark from welding, which strengthened the possibility of sabotage, and we had to wait for the results of the investigation of the black box. He said, "The IRGC and the people expect the Leader or you to give a speech at the ceremony."
