Internet

                Internet, which is presumed to be invented nearly 40 years ago has come to such a point that it 

has been a vital and inevitable part of our lives. Briefly, we are surrounded by the wide webs of the internet 

at our homes, offices, cafes, parks, streets shortly, we use it everywhere. If it is needed to categorize the 

internet as means of its purposes  of being used and profits, there are 3 main aims that we use it so intensively 

and extremely; learning, communication and access.

                First of all, internet carrying extensive range of information resources and services, opens the 

doors of knowledge which even Adam and Eve could not reach the fruit of it as it is told in the Bible and 

Koran. Thanks to the internet, we have the chance of accessing the possible learning sources and techniques 

about variety of subjects such as language, literature, mathematics, culture and so on. Therefore, we can say 

that internet is an enormous library which we are able to search for every matter that comes to our minds and 

we are again able to find numerous books, essays, articles,comments. Moreover, it also helps us about 

saving the time. Thanks to the internet we can find any kind of source with the speed of just one click.  No 

longer, we have to go for the libraries and spend our times there. From 10 years, for many people it is 

possible to use internet for their sakes while they comfortably sipping their teas in front of a monitor. Thus,  

internet succors us on the subjects of speed and comfortableness. Furthermore, with its wide range of 

picture, photograph capacity, internet makes possible for us to get more informations about places that we 

would like to go and visit.

                Secondly, in the context of communication, internet has a great device, undeniably. I am on the 

opinion that at the present time, internet is one of the most preferred device among communication 

instruments, undoubtedly. Therefore, young people prefer social networks so as to communicate with their 

friends, families. Moreover, these social networks provide people to find new friendships, which is especially 

tried by young people to improve their skills of communication. As long as internet is improved with the 

changing technology,it has become possible to make video calls, which enables us to see our friends via 

internet and in my opinion, it makes us mothers happy the most, so as they have chance to see their 

daughters, sons ,who study out of their cities, towns, by using internet. Also internet şs regarded as the 

communication device which approaches the countries and people to one another. So one can interact with 

many foreigner in order to improve his/her language skills.

                As for the access issue, it is really a difficult matter to talk on as it involves a wide sphere. Internet 

has changed, reshaped and redefined our life styles by means of music, videos and films, telephone, and 

television. Thanks to the internet, we can play any song we want to listen at any time. No longer we have to 

wait for the tellies and radios for the purpose of listening our favourite songs. Also, we can find films, videos 

,which is any kind of genre , time such as sci-fi, crime, romance, drama, no matter when it is maked or by 

whom it is shot. Internet has been our entertainers. From my point of view, many people's first step is turning 

on their computers when they come to their homes. Besides these, it is possible to play complicated, 

amazingly designed games. Human's playgrounds are redefined with computers instead of streets. It is only a 

download away to build empires, establish new areas, towns, war againist whole world or becoming a 

legend on Pro.Evolution Soccer. Also, recently, it is possible to use online-shopping instead of going to 

markets, which serves us variety of products such as clothing, foods electronics, furniture. However, after the 

internet all of these linked to just one click or two.

                As a conclusion, internet continues to be more in our lives, everyday. It is a truth that we live in an 

internet world. As  I mentioned above,  internet meets us with its numerous benefits but three of them can be 

classified into three major subjects as  knowledge, communication and access through internet.   

                                  

Ageing 

          Human, which is one of the highly complicated ones among living creatures in the world, is presumed 

to live nearly 75 years in Turkey, acoording to the researches. In my opinion, it is not a bad score when it is 

compared to other well-developed countries such as Japan, England, United States, Canada where lif-span 

is rising to 80s because of their high level of life standards. If it is needed to examine a human's life, it can be 

divided into 4 parts as infancy, youth, adulthood and old age.

          First of all, infancy can be regarded as a primitive time since our baby just a receiver rather than a 

giver except for his breath to the nature. Simply, a baby is in at any case accepts whatever is served to him. 

Therefore, he is not going to maintain his life without proper care which involves such matters as feeding, 

hosting, nursing. Afterwards, he begins to meet the new life by producing a few words, understanding his 

parents, responsing againist the events and so on. Also, when he takes his first step, he is fairly celebrated by 

their parents like Neil Armstrong, as if he is stepping on the moon. Thereafter, his biological growing 

continues. Smoothly, his mother and father start to mark the place where his lenght reaches, every year. 

Gradually, infancy gives its place to childhood. When he gets aproximately 7, he goes to school, begins to 

write and read. And there is a one more step to the monstrosity, puberty.

          Puberty is the time that child can not be defined or understood properly because of his ridicilous and 

sudden acts. Also, it is the time when adolescents realise their genders as if it is an extraordinary, original 

thing. Moreover, arising of the ego identity emerges at that ages. The child cares very much about how he is 

understood and regarded by the other people, society. Then, sense of identity, stating the points of his 

caharacter, generally starts to be constituted. As for the youthfulness, I am on the opinion that, it is like a 

diamond. When human comes to his youth, he begins to shine. Also, if he finds love in that age he can be 

seen as lucky. It is this period that, time shows its gratifying colour. That is, its a time without wrinkles, 

ilnesses, pain, crowfoots. Also, it is a season without wisdom, so there has been no young person without 

simple, silly mistakes. Still, youth keeps it attraction and is deserved to be lived.

          Thirdly, but not lastly, world changes. Now our young boy has been a man who has responsibilities 

such as work, military service, child and other services to his family. Surely, all of these responsibilities bring 

tension, depression, illness with them. Quite slowly, people start to feel his age with his weakening neural, 

immune, respiratory systems and all other ageing systems that we can count. Saddly but truely, day by day 

he loses his power.

          All of this weakening is called, ageing. Our man when he reaches to his 60s can smile when he thinks 

about his past memories, whole life, but just a child can spoil his temporary happiness with some words such 

as old man, grandpa, greybeard. In my opinion, it is a funny part of the fact that old people resemble to 

babies with their attitudes, responses, everyday that passes. Sometimes, when they try to remember their old 

days, time shows us that it defeated them. After they lose the battle which they have done with time, they 

reject to accept it at first but at the end they all realise that they have to surrender and give in.

          As a conclusion, in general aspects, this essay simply narrates how a human life is and it can be lived in 

roughly 4 periods. Regarding this, after seeing how my 2 sections have passed so quickly, I can briefly say  

that there left just 2.5 parts of mine that I am going to be involved in, unfortunately.

Communication

          Years, many years ago, Adam and Eve who thought to be the firs humanbeing accordin to biblical informations, manage to conntrive to produce something which is now called,communication. Although it has been many years that since communication was first generated, it is still not clear how communication was formed. Apart from this, I am on the opinion of people’s having several communication ways are quite useful. 

There are three main communication ways which can be grouped as oral communication, written communication and non-verbal communication.

          

          First of all, since the day it was first produced, oral communication has been a vital,

important way for us to reach each other. Humankind, who realizes he has mouth, tongue,

lips, local cord and everything that is servicable while speaking, never gives up from speaking

after he started to talk. Also, he has used it for his many countless aims such as having fun,

helping each other, conveying information, understanding one another and so on. For

example, now, thanks to his speeches we are entertained by Cem Yılmaz, who is most popular

comedian of Turkey. If it is needed to think about our present world, we live by means of our

speeches. For instance students are tauught lessons by their teachers at their schools. As an

another example, when we want to buuy something we can easily get help from the shop

assistants when we talk to them. Also, we are addicted to our televisions. So, if films and

television series were silent there is no doubt tyhat many of us would not like them that much.

Examples are going to be countless. It has been an inevitable fact that speaking here, there,

and anywhere, is in our lives.

           

          Secondly, written communication comes. Mankind has been standing with a pen on

his hand since writing first found by Sumerians many, many years ago. With the help of

writing, man is able to know about his past, culture, language, literature and so on. Again

thanks to the writing, it seems that next generations to come, will know about the times that

we live. Writing is too, is very useful in many areas such as health, education, personal

relations and even politics. For example, hospitals use it for keeping their patients’ records or

even doctors make use of it so as to advise medicines. Also, teachers prefer writing method

for teaching lessons to their students. Moreover, we manage to keep in touch with our friends,

family members who are far away from us, by writing them via internet, cell phones or ,as an

old method, letters. Additively, a politician prepares his speech with writing before he

anounce it in front of public. Writing which is an essentially important communication way,

took its indispensable place in our lives.

           

           As for the non-verbal communication I am on the opinion that it is a strange and

different communication way for humanity. Humans established a weird relation through their

bodie movements and facial expressions. Thus, people can understand each other looking into

one another’s eyes, frequently. For example, if a person is angry about something, she

generally looks in a manner defined as “bad”. Or more simply, if she frowns her eyebrowns

without saying anything anybody can easily understand that she is clearly annoyed. As an

another example, a father con nod his head to his child when he approves something that child

has done. Also, smiling is always a symbol of being cıntented with the situation, so our father

can smile as he hears the thing child has made, with the aim of confirming it. Except from

these, deaf-mute people developed a way of talking with his hands, arms, fingers ,which we

named as sign language. Even if they can not speak with their voices, they can talk with signs.

Unfortunately. Most of us do not know their special language but it should not be so hard and

difficult to learn it for them so that we can make contact with them.

         

          In conclusion, communication is one of the elements that creates the coherence, unity and togetherness of mankind. With its three main methods, as I mentioned above,communication has been continuing to progress, everyday.

Black Out

“ Electricty is the set of physical phonemena asociated with the presence and flow of

ellectric charge. ” that is the Wikipedia deinition of electricity. Our world is divided into two

thanks to the sun as light and dark and the dark part is lightened by electricity since Thomas

Edison’s finding of the light bulb. However, in 2007, Chicago,Illionis, on the 7th of the June, 

at a normal day, everything was turned off. It was really clear that they were living in an

electric world, and everything decayed. Televisions, computers, factories, shortly everything

linked to electricty did not work. Governments collapsed the people who are smart left towns.

Going of the electricity, the black out leads to many consequences in several areas such as 

declining standards of living and there were people who constantly try to survive.

            At first, people’s living standards changed, they had to lighten their homes with

candles. Secondly, communication stopped for them by means of telephones, internet. Also

people who are far away from each other lived trouble of getting together because buses,

trains subways did not mean anything without  power. At that moment people started to

recognize that they belonged to a world which is designed luxuriously them since the

beginning of the humanity. The meaning of light had changed. In the past, with switching on a

button, there was a day-like light even in the  darkness light but now it was like the times of when Shakespeare had lived. 

            Secondly, life is filled with aggressive people who fight to survive because of illnesses

without medicines, scarcity of food, collapsing of the government and law systems. In time,

with factories not processing people started not to reach any kind of food source and people

who are in big towns are exposed to hunger, starve to death. As children of 21th century, they

are generally ignorant about medical issues. Simply they even have difficulty in staunching or

saving their ordinary woonds. As long as time passes, the problems got bigger, people started

to attack one another to enable themselves food, medicine and so on. Laws and governments

lost their sense, significance and validity because people wer hungry, aidless and hopeless.

They had to create their own hopes, lives by themselves. Moreover , with the cities becoming unsafe, people begin to migrate to rural areas, villages.

            In the city of Illionis we all have witnessed how deadly important the electricity is and  

what the possible consequences would be if it left us, forever. As a conclusion, thinking a

world without electricity means a world without light, hope, knowledge and many results that

we can not number or imagine. And it is simply because we can not cook the electricity, we

should use it more carefully and prudently.

Kasım

           

            Miladi takvim’in 11.ayı olan kasım ayından bahsetmek istiyorum. Çünkü hayatım

açısından bu ay benim için çok önemli. Neden mi? Kişisel olarak yazmam gerekirse

öncelikle kasım ayında doğdum ve  ilk kelimem olan anna (anne bile diyememişim)  yine

ağzımdan bu ayda çıktı.Sonrasında  annemle babamın 12 kasım 1983 te tanışmış olduğunu 

öğredim. Bu olayın kasım ayı içinde olan güzel olaylar arasında yer alabilir.Tabikide herşey 

güzel olmamış. 10 kasım töreninden sonra yediğim ilk tokat(sınıftan sinir bir çocuktu) ve 

dedemin vefatı  bu ayın en kötü anıları olarak nitelendirilebilir. Benim için çok önemli olan bu 

kasım ayın yurdumda ve dünyada ne gibi olaylara tanıklık ettiğini merak ettim ve araştırdım.Bu 

ayın hem ülkemiz hem de dünya tarihi açısından önemini keşfettim.

            Dünya tarihinden konuyu ele aldığımzda karşımıza çıkan olaylardan bazılarına örnek

olarak Süveyş Kanalı’nın açılışı ,UNESCO’nun kuruluşu, I.Dünya Savaşı’nın sona ermesi ,

utanç   duvarı olarak nitelendirilen Berlin Duvarının yıkılması,Filistin Devlet’inin kuruluşu ve son olarak Rusya daki Bolşevik İhtilali örnek olarak verilebilir.

Kasım ayı hazan mevsimi  olarak adlandırılır , üzerine şarkılar filmler vardır. “Yine

Aylardan Kasım “ Tual müzik  grubunun dilllere dolanan ünlü bir parçasıdır.Ayrıca bir aşk

filmi olan ve  başrollerini Keanu Reeves ve Charlize Theron’un oynadığı Kasım’da Aşk

Başkadır (Sweet November) filmi yine bu aya ithafen çekilmiştir.Bazı enteresan denemeler de

bu ayda gerçekleşmiştir Sovyetler Birliğinin Mars’a ilk roketi fırlatması ve Tansu Çillerin

Cumhuriyetteki ilk din şurası toplantısında başını örterek ayet okuması gibi olaylar vuku

bulmuştur. Kasım ayının felaketlerine gelirsek, ilk olarak Lizbonda yaşanan depremde 60,000

kişi hayatını kaybetti ve Hindistan’daki kasırgada 5000 kişi öldü 1500 kişi de evsiz kaldı.

Bu ayın Türk tarihi açısından önemine bakarsak günümüzde kullandığımız latin

harflerinin kabulü, Güney Doğu Anadolu Projesi’nin başlaması,Gülhane Parkında okunan

Tanzimat Fermanı ile Tanzimat Devri’nin başlangıcı, 10 kasım 1938’de Atamız’ın ölümü

Mustafa Kemal ‘e Atatürk soyadının verilmesi , 1973 yılında  Dicle, Çukurova ve Anadolu

Üniversitelerinin kuruluşu yine kasım gerçekleşen olaylardandır. Ayrıca tarihimiz açısından

önemli zaferlerden bahsedersek Trabzonspor İngiliz devi Astonvilla’yı eleyerek UEFA

kupasında 3.tura yükselmiştir ve Kahire’de yapılan Uluslararası yüzme yarışmalarında

İbrahim Sulu 400 metrede birinci olarak altın madalyanın sahibi olmuştur. Bu arada,

Kasım ayına ait Blogger da 4 adet blog’um olmasının gerekliliği tarihte hiç bir zaman önemini

kaybetmeyecektir.

Kasım ayı ilginç bir şekilde bir çok aydan biraz daha fazla insanlar için bişeyler ifade

eder. Bu yazımı sevdiğim filmin adıyla bitirmek istiyorum “Kasımda Aşk Başkadır” .

Nuclear Energy

Nuclear power is the use of sustained nuclear fission to generate electiricity. Today,

nuclear power plants provide about 6 % of the world’s energy and 50% of world’s

electiricity.While these numbers seems satiably good, does anyone have the information about

the dangers of it? Nuclear power is clearly a bad type of energy source because of its being expensive and harmful.

            First miserable point of nuclear power is its being costly. Uranium which is the source

of nuclear energy is a rare element and because of its infrequency, it is not hard to predict how

expensive it is. Acording to researches uranium sources is predicted to be consumed in

approximately 20 and 30 years. In addition to these, considering bureocratic and technical

details which are necessary for the establishment of a new power plant, a nucleur power

station will be completed approximately in 20 and  30 years and it is not possible to build a nuclear power as soon as possible.

            Another side effect of nuclear power is its being harmful for both people and nature. In

nuclear power plant energy is provided by shreding the automic nuclesus. During this,

unfortunately the term that we call  “radiation” emerges,constantly. It has been stored in

special buildings with lead graves and emits radiation for many years and continues to kill the

nature and people wtih cancer. Also, with the performing of the nuclear reactors the materials

such as plutoniom, stronesium, tritium appers as contamination. Firstly, plutonium is highly

poisoned and carcinogenic. As for the stromsium this radioactive material effects the plants

and animals. Moreover, the consequences are deadly when a nuclear station is damaged such

as Fukushima. For instance, the area where Chernobyle disaster happened is still plantles and

lifeless. No alive creature has lived on that territory since the explosion of Chernobyle nuclear station.

            Today the nuclear power energy is still continue to be produced all around the world,

Altough it is known for sure that the damages it create on people and nature are teribble. I

hope in the following centuries we as humanbeings give up from the nuclear power and begin

to use a kind of less harmfull energy source such as solar energy, wind power. If  we can not

find a way to get rid of the nuclear energy, we and our children might have three arms, two heads, one  day.:)
