For a while

I know you missed me. I missed you too! And I am sure no one missed Migo. Who misses an ugly alien like Migo? But, everyone misses wise, sympathetic, handsome dog like me. Migo is sleeping right now. Or it sends a signal to its alien friends under sleep view, I do not know. But I know Migo is very tired. It has been living with 5-6 hours of sleep in a day for a week. All remaining hours, it works standing up. In fact, sometimes I feel bad for Migo. It is a species of small size in comparison with human; away from its home, another planet. 17-18 hours of work in a day, is a sad situation, actually. But the interesting thing is, as soon as it wakes up, it continues to work as if it has not been same alien that worked 17 hours yesterday. I could not stand that much standing on four legs. Then I look at Migo. I am wondering that how many heart it has got? How does it make energy transformation as economically! Does it consume more oxygen than us! Or it worse, if this small species has a good condition like that, if a million of them invasion to Earth, they would ruin planet. “6.5 billion Earthlings against a million alien.” Yeah, that’s actually would not be a bad movie. If I talk a few scriptwriter, do they pay me back with the beer?

While Migo is tired we cannot write our blog, we cannot read the other blogs of our friends, we cannot drink a beer, we cannot play games. For example, a couple days ago we lived an event like that. Migo finished its work and sat beside me. For a moment we were face to face with a cockroach which has walked towards us about 2 meters in front of us. It was type of flying cockroach about 4-5 centimeters in length. By the way, I have to tell that one of the favorite games of us is stone skiting. You know. The stone is thrown to the water in horizontal. If the stone bounces in several times it is calculated. We’re doing the same thing with cockroaches. Actually it is quite fun. I’ve tried first but I’ve failed. Cockroach is still coming to us. Migo took a small round stone and threw to its. But what is it! This creature moves in the same way. It caught the stone in the air! It threw us the stone back!

We could not believe our eyes! Cockroach must be fed too well. It obviously had learned the techniques of war. Migo and I, we looked at with each other. Then I stood up. But, Migo asked me not to do anything. Looked at me and it said that never mind WD. After it started to sleep.

If it is an ordinary day, Migo would not miss this opportunity. It would say “this is the first conscious cockroaches war in Earth history, now let’s records”. But I think now, it does not care about the Galactic Council nowadays. Already it hasn’t the right to union, it told me earlier. Why do you think that it defends the human workers rights! Because of jealousy! It had said to me one day “I would have been in Andromeda if we had an union”. Anyway, you still pretend not to know this knowledge.

So it is really busy in these days. When I asked Migo “how long will it take?” it said until July 7, if it would not be any changing. It is not sure actually. I want its work finish quickly. My fans, my kingdom, super news, I stayed away from it all. We are not able to even read the newspapers. We live in same order every day; get up, work, eat and sleep. Only good thing is that the weather is not hot. Migo does not like heat at all.

It is a cold planet where Migo came from; it says that. And this season was supposed to be very hot in western Anatolia; but the rain and storms are happening. I wonder if our alien’s finger has been herein. Does Migo intervene to ecology? Is it possible that it is organizing the working conditions! I’m very suspicious of Migo. If it has such a power, we’re toast!

Anyway, did I say “I feel bad for Migo,” before? Yes I had said. Really I feel bad. I am a very emotional dog. Also it isn’t too much remained until 7 July. I say to its sometimes “Resist Migo!” It is smiling to me. Then it’s head goes down its shoulder and it falls asleep.

Resist Migo, my dear alien friend!

I do not think I will say this last sentence once more. Let it is noted in history!

Mankind is a harmful species

The researchers from the universities Stanford, Princeton and Berkeley they claimed that vertebrates have disappeared faster 114 times than normally. According to research published in the journal “Science Advances”, more than 400 vertebrate species have become extinct since 1900. Such a dislocation, not 100 years, it needs to be seen in a 10-thousand-year period.

Accelerated modern human–induced species losses: Entering the sixth mass extinction

by Gerardo Ceballos, Paul R. Ehrlich, Anthony D. Barnosky, Andrés García, Robert M. Pringle, Todd M. Palmer

Science Advances  19 Jun 2015

Abstract

The oft-repeated claim that Earth’s biota is entering a sixth “mass extinction” depends on clearly demonstrating that current extinction rates are far above the “background” rates prevailing in the five previous mass extinctions. Earlier estimates of extinction rates have been criticized for using assumptions that might overestimate the severity of the extinction crisis. We assess, using extremely conservative assumptions, whether human activities are causing a mass extinction. First, we use a recent estimate of a background rate of 2 mammal extinctions per 10,000 species per 100 years (that is, 2 E/MSY), which is twice as high as widely used previous estimates. We then compare this rate with the current rate of mammal and vertebrate extinctions. The latter is conservatively low because listing a species as extinct requires meeting stringent criteria. Even under our assumptions, which would tend to minimize evidence of an incipient mass extinction, the average rate of vertebrate species loss over the last century is up to 114 times higher than the background rate. Under the 2 E/MSY background rate, the number of species that have gone extinct in the last century would have taken, depending on the vertebrate taxon, between 800 and 10,000 years to disappear. These estimates reveal an exceptionally rapid loss of biodiversity over the last few centuries, indicating that a sixth mass extinction is already under way. Averting a dramatic decay of biodiversity and the subsequent loss of ecosystem services is still possible through intensified conservation efforts, but that window of opportunity is rapidly closing.

25% of all mammals are at risk. And in next fifty years, these species may become extinct.

Some of the species on this planet which will not be 50 years later.

Axolotl – Mexico salamander (Ambystoma mexicanum)

Slow Loris – A primitive primate living in Sri Lanka (Loris tardigradus)

Quokka- A small marsupial living in the southwest Australia. If you search by typing “Quokka selfie” in your web search engine, you can see how friendly they are

Kakapo-At the planet Earth, Kakapo is the only parrot species that can not fly, lives in New Zealand. There are only 124 Kakapo at planet anymore.

Mankind is a wild species. Wars which are created by human and human’s massacres to nature are destroying other creatures on the planet. When looking at the figures, while the human population is increasing steadily, the animal and plant populations constantly tend to decrease.

Very few people do have the ability to empathize with other living creatures. And this minority is made up from children mostly. Unfortunately, the children do not have the power to rescue other living species on the planet. I wish they had.

For example, any human does not empathize to another species, as in the following example.

While Israel’s attacks kill animals… A dog is doing ‘motherhood’ to a lion cub

Last year, 86 animals in the Bisan zoo in Gaza have died as result of Israel’s attacks. Currently, a dog began motherhood to a baby lion that rejected to feed by mother lioness.

A song, an animal, a language and a culture

Aq Bure “Ак Бүре”, is Tatar Folk Metal band which was established by 5 musicians in Feb, 2013. With the description in their Face book account:

“Ак Бүре” or Aq Bure is a folk musical band performing in folk metal style combining exceptionally spiritual polished by centuries kryashen and light playful Tatar tunes with power and force of Metal sounding.”

“Aq Bure” means “White Wolf.” Due to the Wolf is being the head Turkish mythological animal, (so Turks symbol) in almost all Turkish republics in Central Asia, so in the following countries:
Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Republic of Dagestan, Bashkortostan, Republic of Tatarstan, Republic of Azerbaijan, Tuvan People’s Republic, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, Altai Republic, Karachay-Balkar, Gagauzia, Khakassia, Sakha (Yakutia) Republic, Chuvash Republic, Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, Karachay-Cherkess Republic and Republic of Turkei, it can be found many works about Wolf. Even, the meaning of Bashkortostan which is one of these countries is the right wolves.

For example, Bamsı Beyrek who is the best-known hero of Turkish mythology, is “Kam Bure Bey”’s son.
Kam is the name which is given the head Shaman in Turk nations. He can be bad or good.
Bure means wolf
Bey means lord

Besides, the upper writing that is at the picture of wolf-headed man on the song’s video, is Gok/Kok Turkish/Göktürkçe which is the oldest written Turkish language. Göktürk alphabet, with the other name Orkhon alphabet has been used for this writing. This language had been also used Orkhon Inscriptions and Yenisei inscriptions. Göktürkçe is the first written language of Turkey and it is considered as the main Turkish language. Runic alphabet is used. Archaeologists who worked in the area at the end of 1800’s, when they saw the first of this writing, they had thought that this should be Scandinavian runic alphabet. But it was not. And now there is something amazing but true that, old runic Finnish language and Göktürkçe are two written languages the closest to each other.

There are 3 Orkhon inscriptions. These three were made for the Khagan Kul Tigin and his brother Bilge Khagan and head deputy Tonyukuk of East Göktürk dynasty. These three stones are called “bengü taşlar” so “eternal stone” in the texts of the stones. It was named for wish to remain until eternity. Each one has four faces and approximately 3.5-4 meters in length; there is writing on every face. They have been erected between the years 716-732. The writing above has been quoted from Tonyukuk inscription. (***)

The meaning of Göktürk that was given the name to Göktürk Khanate (552-744), is SkyTurk. And the flag of the Göktürk Khanate consists on a blue background with water green color wolf head.

In addition, todays at rally or meetings of Turkish nationalists make a hand sign that was given the name wolf sign. In fact, it is often mixed with Devil horns. 🙂

(While Turkish nationalists party MHP’s leader Devlet Bahceli makes this sign at party meeting at this photo)

Even in 2009 at Unirock Festival, Istanbul, two person who were join this festival, have make devil horn when Tayyip Erdogan’s convoy has passed on the road and then they were taken to the police station for questioning. They came up before the judge with charge of disrespect to statesman. Most likely, the body guards of the Prime Minister R. Tayyip Erdogan, they perceived this sign as wolf sign of the Turkish nationalist MHP party. After then these two people have been released, they had made the following statement:
“We said to the police that we are Metal music fan. When the police officers heard our words, they made us listen to Pop music” 🙂 (*)

This photo is from Iran. A football match of Traxtor football team which has nicknamed Red Wolves in the city of Tabriz. 25 million Turks living in Iran. And every match of this team for them, a struggle for existence. As you can see, the fans are making the wolf sign. (**)

Let’s turn back to the band “Aq Bure”

Their song which I shared here is a very old Kazan Tatar folk song adaptation. I could not find the original. But, there is one that has broadcasted a program in Tatarstan state television, even if not original, it is the most closer on the web. It also follows.

First: The song lyrics in Tatar language, as follows:
Сандугачлар ияләшкән
Су эчәргә миләштән.
Кайгыларым бетәр иде
Сине күреп сөйләшсәм.

Эх, тала, тала, тала,
Тала ике беләгем.
Нигә тала, нигә яна
Нигә яна йөрәгем?

Агыйлделгә басма салдым
Каенын сайлап кына.
Яннарына барыр идем
Кош булып сайрап кына.

Эх, тала, тала, тала,
Тала ике беләгем.
Нигә тала, нигә яна
Нигә яна йөрәгем?

Агыйделкәйне кичкәндә
Җырлыйм ишкәк ишкәндә.
Өзелә үзәк, яна йөрәк
Җаныем искә төшкәндә.

Эх, тала, тала, тала,
Тала ике беләгем.
Нигә тала, нигә яна
Нигә яна йөрәгем?

Агыйдел суы тирбәлә
Уртасында сал булса.
Суга салсаң, калкып чыгар,
Безгә насыйп яр булса

Эх, тала, тала, тала,
Тала ике беләгем.
Нигә тала, нигә яна
Нигә яна йөрәгем?

Second: It is reading like that:

Sanduğaçlar iäläşkän
Su eçärgä miläştän,
Sağınuların betär ide,
Sineñ belän söyläşsäm.

İh, tala, tala, tala,
Tala ike belägem:
Nigä tala, nigä yana
Nige yana yörägem?

Ağidelgä basma saldım,
Qayının saylap qına,
Yannarıña barır idem
Qoş bulıp sayrap qına.

İh, tala, tala, tala,
Tala ike belägem:
Nigä tala, nigä yana
Nige yana yörägem?

Ağidelkäyne kiçkändä
Cırlím işkäk işkändä,
Özelä üzäk, yana yöräk,
Can iäm iskä töşkändä.

İh, tala, tala, tala,
Tala ike belägem
Nigä tala, nigä yana
Nige yana yörägem?

Ağidel suı tirbälä,
Urtasında sal bulsa.
Suğa salsañ, qalqıp çığa,
Bezgä nasíp yar bulsa!

İh, tala, tala, tala,
Tala ike belägem
Nigä tala, nigä yana
Nige yana yörägem?

The first part looks like Russian, but it is not:) The second part looks like Turkish, but it is not:) Both of them are Tatar language.

If someone who knows the Turkish, has a good ear can solve meanings of these words. Even if this person couldn’t understand in written form with a population of about 250 million at Central Asia Turk nations and Turkmen at Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, he/she can easily understand what they said. If we think the average population of Turk origin people is approximately 350 million (included Republic of Turkey) on this planet; this is really easy way to communication 🙂 Because, the words meanings and sounds are the same parallels in the 20 Turkish republics that I mentioned at the first, and the others. For example, the name of this song:

With Tatar language: “Nige yana yörägem?”
With Turkish in Republic of Turkey: “Niye yanar yüreğim?”
With Azerbaijani: “səbəb yanar ürəyim?”

And here it’s English translation 🙂
With English: “why my heart hurts?”

Wrecked

Really good work, and it really means a full “wrecked”, thank you for sharing this work with us! Also, civilization is an illusion my Earthling friend 🙂 European Union announced “maybe we could take military operational decisions” for immigrants 3 weeks ago. About 200 academics issued a statement against them. 3 days ago, France returned the refugees to the Italy. France reason was “They’ve landed as first Italy coast to Europe”. Maybe those refugees are the lucky ones; because they are able to still take breath. Turkey, Iran, Russia and Syria really live intertwined with terrorism or real terror fear; with terror produced by American and Western imperialism. But the crying side is always imperialist west. They do not live this, but they see themselves that they do have the right for invasion for cry for talk! While all those western governments are concerned as civilized, the civilization is simply an illusion. It has been like that at past, it will be so at the future. Except the shortly after invented democracy at ancient Greece, this planet has never been civilized. The great sci-fi master Ray Bradbury says that “Insanity is relative. It depends on who has who locked in what cage.” We can use this for civilization maybe as follows: “Civilization is relative. It depends on who claims has the right to invade while killing millions.”

5 Best Machines to Time Travel for Beginners

Beyond space and time 🙂 Thank you for sharing your article my Earthling friend.

Zero Ducks Given

“Time is an illusion. Lunch time, doubly so.”

Time, is a depressing predicament when you think about it. The entropy that pushes us forward towards death is an unmerciful mistress. Is it any wonder why mankind had always dream of escaping her grasp?

Since the dawn of civilization, human beings have been captivated by tales of time travel from the legendary folklore of Urashima Tarō, the fisherman who travel 300 years in the future after spending 3 days in the palace of the Dragon God, Ryūjin to the present day where bunch of American men facing mid-life crisis slipping back in time due to a hot tub malfunction.

All these time-traveling stories from all facets of the creative mediums have their own methods of punching through the layer of time but there have been many flaws in the design of their time machine such as appearing naked on the…

The Armenian Question

I know, it is a long article. But, if you want to learn what are the truths, please read. When you read, you will see imperialists games and lies over Anatolian people. And you will see anything is not the same as described by the mainstream media and imperialism with big balloons. And after reading the article, please consider one more time. “What are the aims of these lies owners?” And thank you this very detailed and enlightening article Dr. Pat Walsh!

Pat Walsh

How did Britain’s “Armenian Question” of the 1870s become what it did in 1915? Was it simply a diabolical genocidal plan of the Turks that the Armenians be eradicated from eastern Anatolia? Or were there a series of actions instigated by external forces which altered things in such a way that the tragedy of 1915 became almost inevitable?

It is the view here that what happened in 1915 to the Armenians of the Ottoman Empire was almost entirely the result of Imperialism and Western influence. Without this there would most probably still be an Islamic State of the former kind and a substantial Armenian community within it.

Chimpanzees worry about the planet’s situation: The chimpanzees that regularly consume alcohol, have been observed

Humans’ closest living relatives may have a drinking habit: Scientists spied intoxicated wild chimps soaking up palm wine with leaves and squeezing it into their mouths.

Alcohol consumption is seen across nearly all modern human cultures that have access to fermentable materials. This prevalence led scientists to suggest what is known as the “Drunken Monkey Hypothesis” — that alcohol consumption might have provided a benefit of some kind to the ancestors of humanity, and perhaps also to the ancestors of chimpanzees, humanity’s closest living relatives.

…..

The researchers saw 51 instances in which 13 chimps used leaf sponges to drink fermenting sap. “I was fascinated by this behavior,” study lead author Kimberley Hockings, a behavioral ecologist at Oxford Brookes University in England, told Live Science.”To harvest the palm wine, chimpanzees at Bossou use a leafy tool as a spongy drinking vessel.”

The sap averaged about 3.1 to 6.9 percent alcohol, or 6.2 to 13.8 proof. For comparison, beer averages between 3 and 6 percent alcohol, and wine can contain 7 to 14 percent alcohol, with dessert wine having nearly 19 percent alcohol content, according to the University of Notre Dame. The chimps often drank the booze in large quantities — about a liter (34 ounces, or about three average-size beers) of fermented sap on average. Males accounted for 34 of the 51 instances of drinking — one adult male in particular accounted for 14 of the 51 instances.

The last regret

“The last regret” written by Kemal Okuyan

“Do you regret?” they ask.

Because of,

we row against the tide,

we show determination to walk alone the way we know as right,

we expose attempts of renewing of AKP regime with the different actors,

we say “nothing changes with the election; this order have to be changed; for changing of this order, organized fight should be increased”,

we act with the thought “there is no break or holiday in socialism fight”,

we defend secularism, we resist against Saidi Nursi bragging and religious obscurantism,

we warn to our friends and the working people about politic engineering which has the international forces and the capitalist class behind its,

we lay weight on “there would not be benefit for us from a revolutionary which is not questioning to capital order”,

we carry the interests of working people to the election platform, despite hundreds of pressures, swearing, mobbing, insulting,

we stand against the false dreams which will cause to convict the people of apolitism and thoroughly intimidation,

we remind NATO, European Union and we say “once, the meaning of left was to be against imperialism”,

we speak out the truths, no matter how much they depressing,

we don’t lose the hope in any case, all circumstances,

Do we regret?

What were Gauls saying: “Romans must be crazy!”

We don’t express our revolutionary goals and principles with figures. Before the election, ones called “opportunism” to our decision which was to be join to the election as being Communist Party.

“We are taking great risks,” we replied. Because we showed an almost impossible attitude which would not have turned into the vote in these conditions.

We do not regret it because of we took the risks. It is worth it. We write down to the mind and heart of many friends, not only history; we are organized.

Yes, we have not regret it in election night, when the number of votes at the ballot box for socialism were announced; as we have said before, we set to work.

And you?
