The Gorilla's Chest Beating
Why does a gorilla beat it chest? It depends on the gorilla-and on the situation. In some instances,the flamboyant and intimidating gesture may be just what it seems: a warning to keep away. When truly aroused,the leader of the gorilla trop rises and drums his chest rapidly,palms open and slightly cupped. Then he explodes into a charge which may or may not be a bluff. Scientists who have been charged at by gorillas report that the animals almost always stop short of violence-unless the human intruder responds in a hostile manner. Sometimes chest-beating is only an expression of relief after the danger has passed, a means of keeping in touch with other gorillas in the trop,or a way of warning other troops away from the feding area. Some gorillas,especially the young ones,often beat their chests as expressions of high spirits. One thing the gorilla does not do is stage a victory celebration by drumming furiously on his chest after he has just cracked an oppenent’s spine. That sort of thing happens only in the movies.
The Reasons For Rapid Population Growth
Statics show that rapid population growth creates problems for developing countries. So why don’t people have fewer children? Statics from the developed countries suggest that it is only when people’s living standards begin to rise that birth rates begin to fall. There are good reasons for this. Poor countries can not afford social services and old age pensions,and people’s incomes are so low they have nothing to spare for savings. As a result, people look to their children to provide them with security in their old age. Having a large family can be form of insurance. An deven while they are stil quite young,children can do a lot of useful jobs on a small farm. So poor people in a developing country will need to see clear signs of much better conditions ahead before they can think of having smaller families. But their conditions can not be improved unless there is a reduction in the rate at which population is increasing. This will depend on a very much wider acceptance of family planning and this,in turn,will mean basic changes in attitudes.
Levi Strauss Coo
In 1850,during the Gold Rush, a twenty-years-old immigrant from Bavaria named Levi Strauss stepped off the boat in San Francisco. He had with him a special cloth called Serge de Nimes,which would later be called denim in America. Levi Strauss hoped to sell the denim as material to make tents and covers for wagons,to the men who were going to the goldfields to look for gold. “You should have brought pants to sell. In the goldfields we need strong pants that don’t wear out” one young miner advised Strauss. So Levi Strauss took some of his denim to the nearest tailor and had him maket he miner a pair of pants. The miner was so pleased with his pants that he told other miners about the wonderful new Levi’s pants or Levis,and soon Levi Strauss had to open a shop to manufacture enough trousers fort he miners. The miners wanted trousers that were comfortable tor ide in,that were low-cut so they could bend over easily to pick up the gold from under their feet,and which had big useful pockets.One miner complained that the gold in his pockets to maket hem stronger. Very soon,miners and cowboys from all over came to get fitted up with Levi’s pants. Today,more than a hundred years later,Levi’s pants walk the world as Levi’s Blue Jeans.

How to Train Elephants
How to Train Elephants
2 main techniques have been used for training elephants,which we may call respectively the tought and the gentle. The former method simply consists of setting an elephant to work and beating him until he does what is expected of him. Apart from any moral considerations, this is a stupid method of training,for it produces a resentful animal who at a later stage may well turn into a man-killer. The gentle method require more patience in the early stages,but produces a cheerful,goodtempered elephant who will give many years of loyal service.The first essential in elephant training is to assign to the animal a single trainer who will be entirely responsible for the job. Elephants like to have one master just as dogs do,anda re capable of a degree of personal affection. There are even stories of half-trained elephant calves who have refused to feed and pined to death when,by some unavoidable circumstance,they have been deprived of their own trainer. Such extreme cases must probably be taken with a grain of salt,but they do underline the general principle that the relationship between elephant and trainer is the key to successful training.

Weep For Health
Weep For Health
Anger,fear or the shock of sudden sorrow brings physical changes in our bodies. The digestion is shut down, the blood pressure is raised, the heart speeds up, and the skin becomes cold.
If maintained over a prolonged period, this emergency status makes the body –and the personality- tight, dry and rigid. In people who are afraid to let themselves pour forth their painful emotions,doctors find that supressed tears can trigger such ailments as asthma, migraine headache, and many others. Weeping, on the other hand, comes as part of the reversal of conditions of alarm,shock and anger. Tears do no, therefore, mark a breakdown or low point, but a transition to warmth, hope and health. So there is a genuine wisdom in tears. In permitting ourselves to weep instead of repressing the impulse, we help ourselves to health.

Headset Stereos
Most headset stereos have one thing in common: they can cause hearing loss. Studies have shown that sound levels from the machines can reach 115 decibels or more-roughly equivalent to standing 100 feet from a commercial jet at the moment of take-off. At that level,permanent hearing damage can ocur after just 15 minutes. And the earlier a child begins using a headset,the more damage can accumulate. Loud noise causes hearing loss by killing irreplaceable hair cells in the inner ear. Normally,the process occurs slowly as people age,but noise damage can accelerate it.
Noise-induced hearing loss is insidious; damage may not be apperent until later in life. Sence headsets are used privately,parents often don’t realize how loud their children’s music is.

Europe's Last Utopia
Everbody knows that Santa Claus lives somewhere near the North Pole where a carpet of snow covers the mountains and the amazing Northern Lights shine brightly in the Artctic night. It has generally been assumed that the settled there because of all that snow for his reindeer and sleigh,but he real reason he put his roots down on the edge of the Arttic Circle in Finnish Lapland,Europe’s last wilderness,must surely be that he simply loved the beauty and solitude of this last Utopia,Santa Claus Land. Sandwiched between Norwegian Lapland and the former USSR,Finnish Lapland lies almost entirely above the Arctic Circle in Northern Finland. The capital is the winter-sport center of Rovaniemi. It’s a modern town in the middle of nowhere. Concorde used to land there and many daily Finnair flights arrive from all over Finland.
Chinese New Year 2010
The most important holiday in China is the Lunar New Year. Since it based on the lunar calendar,it comes about a month later than the Western New Year. The Chinese New Year season traditionally lasts about a month;how ever,so that working life will not be interrupted for too long,the period has now been reduced to a week or less. There are some paralellels with the Western New Year: houses are cleaned thoroughly,for instance,and families all get together for the festivities. All debts must be paid off so that the new year can start with a fresh beginning. Feasts are enjoyed with family and friends, and there are lively dragon and lion dances in the streets. Everwhere there is the sound of firecracker explosions. Children receive gifts of little red envelopes with money inside them. Many superstitions are related to the celebration of the Chinese New Year. No sweeping should be done in case the family’s good fortune is swept out of the door with the trash.One should be especially careful not to break any dishes,for such an accident is believed to bring about serious problems between members of famil througout the coming yet.
Brasilia about
Brasilia
When we think of Brazil, we think of Rio de Janeiro. But the capital of Brasil is not Rio de Janerio. İt is Brasilia. Brasilia is a new city in the center of Brazil. It is 600 miles from the Atlantic Ocean and far away from any other town.
For a long time, Brazilians wanted to have a capital in the center of the country. They wanted people to live in center and not just by the ocean. In 1957, President Kubitschek decided to build the city. Workers came from all the country. There were no roads or railroads to the center of the country. Everything came by plane. It took three years to build this city. In 1960, Brasilia became the capital.
The city is the shape of an airplane. The government buildings are in the center. People live in apartments in high-rises on both sides. There are wide boulevards and modern buildings. The main buildings and the cathedral are the work of Oscar Niemeyer. He is a famous architect. The cathedral is extraordinary.
Brasilia has problems as a city. The city was made for half a million people. Now about two million people live in Brasilia. The poor people live in slums outside the city, like in other Brasilian cities. It is hot in the center of Brazil, and there are few trees in the new city. There aren’t too many people outside in the streets. Some of streets are very wide. There are really for cars. It is not easy for people to cross the streets.
Brasilia is a very modern kapital. It is a beatiful city. It has everything a city needs.But many people miss the exciting life in Rio de Jenario and often go back there.

Attitudes Towards Money
Generally,people are classified into three categories according to their attitudes towards money: misers,spenders,and economizers. Misers seem almost obsessed with the idea of saving,so they accumulate money in bank sif their income is large,or in the house stuffed in mattresses or under the living room rug if they are low income people. They deprive themselves of many things and spend money just on the most essential things. Spenders are people who have a tendency to spend too much on too many unnecessary things. They are often too generous, making elaborate gifts to friends and family. Credit cards in some spenders’ hands are often dangerous weapons. They become addicted to using them,only to regret it later when the bills come in and they are unable to pay. Economizers are practical people who spend wisely,usually making use of a budget. They can enjoy more and various material things and activities due to their careful utilization of funds. They spend in moderation and save in moderation for their future retirement or the education of their children.Of these three types of people,economizers are what most of us are having to be in our age. The acute problems of inflation,shortages,and low salaries are forcing us to become economizers. It is only way to be if we are to survive in the future. Hopefully,the misers and big spenders will modify their extreme attitudes towards money in these circumstances and convert into economizers.

Astrology About
All around the world,it seems to be true that people prefer mysterious explanations to simple explanations. If someone is killed in a car crash,for example,many people say it was caused by fate,rather than by poor driving or bad road conditions. In many countries,a profitable business has developed around the subject of astrology. Astrologers want us to believe that our characters are formed as soon as we are born,according to the particular zodiac sign we are born under. Many people prefer to believe this than to read the scientific explanations of the development of human character and personality put forward by psychologists and doctors. Hence,in many popular magazines and women’s journals,we find a column such as”You and Your Stars” And in some countries,you can even ask an astrology “expert” questions about your future.
Allergic Reactions To Cosmetics
In a recent survey,it was found that 25 percent of the women interviewed reported drying and burning of the skin after using certain soaps,ten percent had eye and nasal irritations after using certain perfumes,and eight percent had cracked lips after using certain lipsticks. The most common symptoms of allergic dermatitis are extremely dry skin,scaling,and redness with swelling and itching. The products most likely to cause this condition are lipstick,nail polish,soap,hair preparations,deodorants,and perfumes.Various drugs are being developed for the relief of allergy sufferers. However,your best help is to convert a cosmetic product to which you have no harmful reaction. Remember that the product is not at faul for in any way injurious;it is your particular sensivity to it that creates the problem. A line of hypo-allergenic cosmetics that are relatively free from substances that have been found to create allergic reactions in on the market.
Alfred Nobel A Man of Contrasts
Alfred Nobel,the great Swedish inventor and industrialist,was a man of many contrasts. He was the son of a bankrupt,but became a millionaire; a scientist with a love of literature;and industrialist who managed to remain an idealist. He made a fortune but lived a simple life,and although cheerful in company he was often sad in private. A lover of mankind,he never had a wife or family to love him;a patriotic son on his native land,he died alone on foreign soil. He invented a new explosive,dynamite,to improve the peace time industries of mining and road building ,but saw it used as a weapon of war to kill and injure his fellow men. During his useful life he often felt he was useless:”Alfred Nobel” he once wrote of himself,”ought to have been put to death by a kind doctor as soon as,with a cry,he entered life.” World famous for his work ,he was never personally well known,for throughout his life he avoided publicity. “I do not see” he once said,”that I have deserved any fame and I have no taste for it” Since his death,however,his name has brought fame and glory to others. His famous will,in which he left money to provide prizes for outstanding work in Physics,Chemistry,Physiology,Medicine,Literature and Peace,is a memorial to his interests and ideals. And so,the man who felt he should have died at birth is remembered and respected long after his death.
A Museum Robbery
It was,Italian authorities said later, as if thieves had a catalog and knew just what they were after. Armed bandits bound and gagged six unarmed guards,entered a storeroom containing artifacts from the Roman town of Herculaneum, and stole about 280 objects-gold rings,bracelets,earrings,and precious stones. All had been discovered during excavations of the seaside town,buried by the same eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79 that destroyed its largerand better-known neighbor,Pompeii.Authorities said that the stolen items also included a small bronze statue of Bacchus inlaid with copper and silver, a bronze vase,and a box of coins.The total value of objects taken during the robbery was estimated at 1.6 million dollars. Art historians and others criticized lax security that permitted two gunmen to climb a wall,enter the site,and break through a flimsy partition to get into the room where the artifacts were kept. Some of critics also complained that the guards were unarmed. Officials said it would be hard for anyone to sell the stolen objects because all had been catalogued and photographed,and most had been exhibited and published.

Kitle iletişim teknolojisindeki ilerlemelerin, ulusal ve uluslararası gelişmelerin kamuoylarında giderek daha hızlı ve daha geniş bir şekilde yankı bulmasını sağladığını belirten Büyükelçi Tan, bu durumun kamuoylarıyla karar verici ve uygulayıcılar arasındaki etkileşimi de paralel şekilde artırdığını kaydetti.
Büyükelçi Tan, bu sosyo politik ortamda, dış politika yaklaşım ve icraatlarının, doğru iletişim kanalları üzerinden ve kapsamlı bir kamu diplomasisi stratejisi çerçevesinde, yerli, yabancı ve uluslararası kamuoylarına layıkıyla izah edilebilmesinin öncelik ve önem kazandığını ifade etti. Tan, kamu diplomasisi bağlamında amaçlarının Türk dış politikasının ulusal çıkarlar çerçevesinde belirlenmesi ve yürütülmesinde yerli, yabancı ve uluslararası kamuoylarının eğilimlerini, hassasiyetlerini ve endişelerini de anlayacak iki yönlü bir iletişim stratejisi geliştirmek olduğunu bildirdi.
Bu yaklaşım çerçevesinde bakanlık merkez ve dış teşkilatları bünyesindeki kurumsal hazırlıkların sürdüğünü söyleyen Tan, teknik altyapının da tamamlanmasının ardından basın ve düşünce kuruluşları, sivil toplum örgütleri ve üniversiteler gibi geniş bir çevre ile daha yakın bir iletişim içine girileceğini bildirdi. Tan, bu iletişimin kurulmasında dönemsel istişare toplantıları gibi klasik yöntemlerin yanı sıra Facebook ve Tweeter gibi modern iletişim platformlarından da yararlanılacağını kaydetti.
Büyükelçi Tan, benzeri bir yapılanmanın yurtdışındaki misyonlar aracılığıyla yabancı kamuoyları ve daha geniş uluslararası kamuoyu için de geçerli olacağını söyleyerek, "Kamu diplomasisi alanı, dış politikanın yürütülmesine yeni bir vizyon ve önümüzde açılan geniş bir çalışma penceresidir. Bu yeni çalışma penceresi alışık olduğumuz klasik diplomasi uygulamalarının ötesine geçerek, önümüzdeki dönemde yeni uygulamalar çerçevesinde bir araya gelmemizi sağlayacak" diye konuştu.
Pek çok ülke tarafından etkin şekilde uygulanan kamu diplomasisi çerçevesinde ABD, İngiltere, İsrail, Fransa gibi ülkeler, dış politikalarını daha geniş çevrelerle çeşitli iletişim araçlarıyla paylaşıyor ve bunun için büyük bütçeler ayırıyor.
Büyükelçi Tan, bu sosyo politik ortamda, dış politika yaklaşım ve icraatlarının, doğru iletişim kanalları üzerinden ve kapsamlı bir kamu diplomasisi stratejisi çerçevesinde, yerli, yabancı ve uluslararası kamuoylarına layıkıyla izah edilebilmesinin öncelik ve önem kazandığını ifade etti. Tan, kamu diplomasisi bağlamında amaçlarının Türk dış politikasının ulusal çıkarlar çerçevesinde belirlenmesi ve yürütülmesinde yerli, yabancı ve uluslararası kamuoylarının eğilimlerini, hassasiyetlerini ve endişelerini de anlayacak iki yönlü bir iletişim stratejisi geliştirmek olduğunu bildirdi.

Babasını Faceden Buldu
Annesinin anlattıklarından yola çıkan Jess, Facebook’ta hesabı olan Kevin Roberts’a “Merhaba, sizin uzun zamandır aradığım babam olduğunuza inanıyorum. Şu anda 14 yaşındayım ve artık temas kurmamızın zamanının geldiğini düşündüm. Umarım benimle iletişim kurarsınız” yazarak mesajına olumlu cevap beklemeye başladı. Mesajı görünce 1995’te Broadley’in annesi Helen’le kısa bir birlikteliği olduğunu hatırlayan Roberts, “Jess’in profil fotoğrafını gördüğümde benim bir parçam olduğunu anladım” diyor. Karısından yeni boşanan ve Noel’i yalnız geçirmeye hazırlanan 43 yaşındaki Roberts, Facebook hesabını yeni oluşturmuş. “Bu inanılmaz. Hep bir kız evlat özlemi çekmiştim” diyen Roberts şimdi mutlu olduğunu anlatıyor. Genç kızın annesiyse “Kevin’la tekrar konuşmak biraz tuhaf ama Jess’i çok mutlu ettiği için minnettarım” diyor.

Facebooktan Reddedilmek
Sevdiği kızın red cevabı verdiği genç, otel odasında intihara teşebbüs etti.
Olay, saat 22.00 sıralarında meydana geldi. Beyoğlu Kalyoncukulluk Caddesi üzerinde bulunan bir otele öğle saatlerinde gelen S.Y (20), otelin bir gecelik parasını peşin ödeyip odasına kapandı.

Odasına yerleştikten sonra dışarıya çıktı. Akşam saatlerine gelip odasına kapandı. Odadan gelen sesler üzerine gidip baktık. Bileklerini kesmiş ve bilinci kayıp bir şekilde yerde yatıyordu. Hemen polisi ve ambulansı aradık" dedi.

Facede Bir baba
İngiltere’nin en tehlikeli gangsterlerinden Colin Gunn’ın cezaevinde kolaylıkla girdiği Facebook üzerinden mafyayı yönetip düşmanlarını tehdit ettiği ortaya çıktı.
2004 yılında bir çifti öldürme emri vermekten 35 yıl hapis cezası alan 42 yaşındaki mafya babası Gunn, cezaevine girince “işlerini” internet üzerinden Facebook’ta hesap açarak hücresinden adamlarına emirler vererek sürdürdü. Facebook’ta 565 “arkadaşı” olan Gunn, ayrıca düşmanlarını tehdit etmeyi de ihmal etmedi: “Bir gün evine geleceğim. Gözlerindeki korkuyu görmek için sabırsızlanıyorum.”
Gazetede çıkan haberden sonra mafya babasının hesabı kapatıldı. Gunn, yasal hakkı olduğu iddiasıyla gardiyanlardan bilgisayarı kullanma izni aldığını söylerken, skandal ülkede tartışmalara yol açtı. Adalet Bakanı Jack Straw, Facebook kullanan mahkumlarla ilgili sıkı güvenlik önlemi alacaklarını söyledi.
