The problem is actually with the rails translations for farsi, which 
weren't being used until now. Specifically the date.abbr_day_names 
translation expands to an array which only has six day names in it... 
Your account happens to have been created on the 7th day (Saturday) 
which is causing the failure.

The day names we have are:

["ی", "د", "س", "چ", "پ", "ج"]

for Sunday through Friday - can you let me know if those are right, and 
what the name for Saturday should be? Then I can fix it...
