BÜLENT is Here!!
There's a new face around town, an e-journal that aims to fill the sweet spot of desire for fresh, cutting-edge, edgy and real reportage about Turkey. The first issue has hit the e-stands. Get it here.
Here's what the editors have to say about the journal:
BÜLENT is a quarterly online journal which aims to encourage new ways of thinking about contemporary Turkey.
BÜLENT takes its title from a common Turkish boy's name. It is the name of Bülent Ecevit, former Prime Minister, poet and translator, and Bülent Ersoy, a much loved transexual singer.
As two of the most iconic Bülents, Ersoy – whose public gender transition coincided with the repressive 1980 military coup – and Ecevit – who stood at the inception of the Turkish financial crisis when a book was thrown at him across parliament – both present figures which cut across contemporary Turkey's most interesting tensions. Not least the unpredictable shapes of identity politics, and the brute power of the written word. These two lives offer a basic departure for the journal, which aims, not so much to 'unveil' Turkey, as to engage with existing critical debates.
We publish articles, essays, interviews, translations, photos and multimedia works. We are looking for all kinds of collaborators. Please get in touch with us at firstname.lastname@example.com
Issue Zero: April 2013
Editors: Isobel Finkel & Thomas Roueché

Rest in peace, İlhan Mimaroğlu –
who stood at the inception of the Turkish financial crisis when a book was thrown at him across parliament
False as stated, but who cares? Getting called "real reportage" is independent of reality as it exists, as I have learned here. I figured there was a reason for your hawking this thing here, and there was. You have a piece in it. I have read it, found it funny, and I have no quarrel with it. That powers that be regard social scientists as tools, and that many of your respected people play along is well-known here and elsewhere. What amused me further is that you see this as a Turkish thing and do so as someone who's raved about the great things a meeting you attended accomplished in the way of teaching Afghans how to be better Muslims which, incidentally, appears to entail doing things that fit the way that war's marketed. As I said, this phenomenon is well-known. (Not that hard scientists and engineers are fully clean, mind you. While their work isn't directly political, it does produce, and, is in part funded by states to produce, weaponry. You tell 'em what their religion really is, we produce the drones to kill those who disagree.)
I love it, thank you very much!
This is my reply to Jenny's article at Bulent in this comment.
The saying you mention, "Turks have no other friends besides Turks," is just a nationalist rehashing and further narrowing of Koran Chapter 3, Surah 118: "O ye who believe! Take not for intimates others than your own folk."
It is also funny that that Turkish ultra-nationalist scholar, politician and university founder, Dalan came out with it: "I bet we don't know ourselves as well as they know us." I remember reading a little of the freely available material from the book of Omer Asan's that was on the web. In it there is a preface by a gavur foreigner who was the first in Turkey to study the Pontian Greek spoken there by local muslims. Omer Asan was the first Mahometan "Turk" to study or take any serious interest in publishing on the language. When he went to Turkish universities they knew nothing! Infact instead of being thanked for the research he was persecuted and called a traitor. So he is quite right, the foreigners probably do know more! Turks care more about group-think than searching for the truth.

A colleague told me they were going for a Reiki healing. The unfamiliar, foreign sound of the name got me curious. I then learned that Reiki originated in Japan. It came from two Japanese words "rei" and "ki" which means universal life energy. A reiki healer or master whose energy is attuned to the universal life energy could heal mental, emotional and physical imbalances through laying their hands on the person's body.
Last weekend, I accompanied someone who suffers from claustrophobia. He also finds it hard to breathe sometimes. His spirit is so low and he had been unhappy for quite some time now. After an hour session, he noticed that his breathing became even and smooth. He also noticed that he no longer struggles inside a train. He became happier and more relaxed.
I got very fascinated with Reiki that the following day I went to the bookstore to learn more about it. I read about the five principles of Reiki and realized that we don't really have to go for a Reiki healing often to change our lives. We could make a significant positive change in our life if we live each day with these five principles.
1. Just for today, I will not be angry
Anger is not just a waste of time but energy. Harboring anger will eventually take its toll on our health and wellbeing. It will destroy relationships and only worsen an unfavorable situation. Like the cliché, "holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else but you are the one who gets burned instead." Let go of that coal. Hold a rose instead and let its fragrance reach other's soul.
2. Just for today, I will not worry
Worry is just like anger. It can affect our health and makes us unhappy. Worrying doesn't change anything. It will only prolong our agony. Instead of worrying, it's better to follow principle 3 and trust that everything happens for a good reason. Eventually, negative circumstances no matter how painful or hard, will makes sense someday.
3. Just for today, I will be grateful
Instead of being negative, learn to be grateful. If we start to appreciate the little things – the aroma of coffee, the cool breeze, the smile of a stranger, the assistance from a classmate or co-worker, anything that we don't normally notice – we will know how many good things life has gifted us. Instead of complaining about a slow internet connection when all you do online is waste your time with superficial conversation on social network, be grateful of the time you were given to have a good quality conversation with someone over the phone or all the better, face to face.
4. Just for today, I will do my work honestly
And if I may add, industriously. We spend a considerable amount of our time at work. I believe that our work must be in line with our passion and advocacy. When it's not, we cannot find meaning and sense of fulfillment from it. If it does, then we should give our all to deliver for and make the most from it. Being honest must also manifest in everything that we do, not just in our work.
5. Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing
Being kind doesn't have to be giving a million dollar donation to a cause. It can be as simple as giving your seat in a train to an elderly or a pregnant woman, or feeding a stray cat. Simple act of kindness creates a ripple effect. The little things we do can go a long way in helping others. Here's a video that could hopefully inspire your day 🙂

A scandalous waste
The battle against HIV has been seriously undermined by reliance on unscientific animal-based medical research. Hundreds of millions of pounds have been wasted on animal experimentation that has no relevance to finding a vaccine and cure for HIV because HIV is a uniquely human disease. It doesn't have the same devastating effect on other species.
This is the conclusion of a damning new report, Still Dying of Ignorance? 25 years of failed primate AIDS research, published today - World Aids Day - by the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection (BUAV). Written by Dr Katy Taylor, it gives a comprehensive review of HIV research (HIV is the virus that causes Aids). Her report documents the failure of a quarter of a century of research with monkeys, cats and other non-human species.
This failure was inevitable. The physiology of human and non-human species is very different. Medical findings that apply to animals cannot be simplistically applied to humans. We cannot understand and cure HIV by using inappropriate animal research subjects.
Dr Taylor's report highlights how research using primates has delivered 30 vaccines that protect monkeys from contracting their version of HIV (SIV), but which fail to protect humans. Her report reveals how fundamental differences in the way primates react to HIV means that animal research has proved largely irrelevant to finding a cure or vaccine for HIV in humans.
The BUAV's report also demonstrates that the most effective and widely-used treatments for HIV, such as protease inhibitors and 3TC, have been developed using computer modelling and by studying infected human cells in test tubes (in vitro). Despite this overwhelming scientific evidence, the Medical Research Council continues to pour millions of pounds of taxpayers' money into pointless efforts to find a vaccine by experimenting on primates and other species.
BUAV chief executive Michelle Thew said: "Our report shows the most crucial breakthroughs in Aids research have come from studies that did not involve laboratory animals, and that experiments using test tube and human volunteer studies are giving scientists the knowledge they need to treat a peculiarly human virus."
She added: "There is a clear need to divert the money, expertise and effort into boosting research methods that are delivering results for human health, as well as sparing primates from pointless and painful experiments. Our report shows that not only do non-animal test methods have a long history of success in fighting Aids, these humane alternatives also provide the brightest hope for the future."
The findings of the BUAV report are echoed today by the Dr Hadwen Trust for Humane Research, a non-animal medical research charity, which is funding ground-breaking HIV research at University College London. It warns that unless we move away from misdirected animal experiments to human-based research, we will be squandering an opportunity to save millions of lives. Ending animal experiments is the key to medical progress on HIV and other diseases, according to the Dr Hadwen Trust.
Dr Gill Langley, science director for the Dr Hadwen Trust, says: "Although drugs can reduce illness and deaths from Aids, it remains a major global killer and there is still no cure or vaccine despite more than two decades of animal experimentation. Throwing more money at more animal experiments is wasting lives, both animal and human. We already know how misleading animal models can be in HIV/Aids research, and with an epidemic of such gross proportions, it is scandalous that we persist in studying the wrong virus in the wrong species."
Dr Langley argues that international efforts and funds should be focused on non-animal research, using super computers, human cells and tissues, and safe human volunteer studies. Future research needs to concentrate on studying the right virus in the right species - HIV in humans.
Worldwide, more than 25m people have died from HIV since the disease was first identified in 1981. Nearly 40m people, including millions of children, are infected with HIV. But animal research will not provide an answer.
This World Aids Day it is time to ditch the old, discredited and wasteful methods of animal experimentation, and embrace instead the 21st-century science of human-based research to find cures for uniquely human diseases like HIV.

Forest Park,Pa (Sep. 4)
The executive board of the International ladies Garment Workers Union today approved a proposal to urge the United States Government to allow 10,000 displaced persons to enter this country to fill the shortage in experienced manpower in the cloak and suit industry.
The board also cabled an appeal to Prime Minister Attlee, urging him to extend "your practical cooperation toward realizing the recommendations of the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine." The partitioning of Palestine "points a (##)y toward a rational solution of the tragic and heart-breaking problems in the (##)ly Land," the cable continued.
David Dubinsky, president of the I.L.G.W.U., emphasized that it has been established that there are many trained needle-trades workers among the displaced persons. He said that the clothing industry in the United States had been complaining for more than two years about the acute shortage of trained men, "and we are offering a solution to this problem."
The board expressed the opinion that none of the 10,000 DP's would become public charges. It also pointed out that the Canadian Government has already granted permission for the admission of 2,500 DP's who are skilled needle-trades workers.
