Placard of equality
Last weekend, while I was watching the Gazi Koşusu, the horserace dedicated to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, at the Istanbul Hippodrome, I felt both happy and sad. I was happy because I felt that we owe a word of appreciation to the Turkish Jockey Club, which has been organizing the show for 85 years, and to all the horse-breeders and employees of the club.
The smiles do not hide the cold atmosphere
On one of the most popular Greek news sites a sensational posting catches the eye. Under the headline, "New scoop by TO VIMA" you can see the first page of the newspaper with the headline, "For the opening of Acropolis Museum-Obama came," "Friendly to Karamanlis, hearty with Dora, Michelle Obama was an example of stylishness..." Besides the obvious sense of humor for which the site is known for, this grand blunder committed last week by some of the most respectable newspapers in Greece pointed out that journalism ethics is something that we teach in journalism classes but rarely exists in reality.
Making photography a professional pursuit in life
ISTANBUL - Emre Dörter stayed on in Italy to get some real-life experience in photography after completing his master’s degree at the Accademia Italia before returning home. He says over time he has developed an affinity to shoot still-life pictures, as he does now. ’For everything, there has to be a separate preparation, structure, equipment, eye and approach. To find opportunities to work in different styles is very attractive, in spite of it being stressful for a careful professional,’ he says.
Theocratic democracy (III)
While a reference in a national charter stating the religion of a people might not be a stringent violation of the secularism principle, though it does not conform well with it, the inclusion of a "No law can compromise the principles of Islam" article in the national charter of a country, would not make a country a "theocratic democracy," but would definitely convert it into something much different than a democracy.

MARDİN - A Syriac man, whose life story is like a film, is a part of this year's Sinemardin Film Festival in the southeastern Mardin. Well-known journalist and director Nuri Kino, who was born in Midyat but raised in Sweden, says, 'I have seen many red carpets in my life, but I have never been this emotional and happy to participate in a film festival.'
Film telling of struggle between two languages gains appreciation
ISTANBUL - 'İki Dil Bir Bavul' (On the Way to School) was one of the most admired films at the Adana Golden Boll International Film Festival. The two directors have shot many documentaries over the years but they say this was their most successful. The documentary-like film's characters are from the real world. A young teacher who comes from Denizli tries to teach Turkish, instead of primary school classes, to Kurdish children who do not even speak a word of Turkish.
Actress aims to build a bridge between Turkey and Chile
ISTANBUL - Chile is a long way from Turkey but exchange programs of various sorts can help bridge some of that geographical gap. One of those programs culminates in two prominent Chilean films, Machuca and B-Happy, which are showing at the Pera Museum. Starting with Pera was very useful and from there it will grow, according to young and attractive Chilean actress Manuela Martelli, who stars in one of the films.

No comment
Cruising on the highway between Ankara and Istanbul you can read all funny things written at the back of the lorries. As I was sick and tired of that debate about cleansing mines that are planted along Turkey's southeastern border, my spirits rose on the Istanbul highway when confronted by the lorry drivers' jargon. An example:
Chrysler dealers say ’a lot of America is dying’
Germantown, Maryland - Ailing carmaker Chrysler is closing 800 dealerships in the United States, a decision that sends ripples across communities. ’It's not that a bit of America is dying with this, a lot of America is dying,’ says Woody Burriss, who has worked at a family-run dealership in Washington since 1954, when he was 19 and fresh out of high school
Turkish summer art lessons bring bliss
The sun is out, the weather has made up its mind to stay warm and Moda is swarming with visitors and locals alike sunning themselves along the coast and filling themselves with bottomless cups of tea. It is summer and soon the city’s arts will move outdoors or remain a distant reminder of how we fill up the winter months.
