Turks bid farewell to the Internet in the face of brutal censorship/surveillance law

Turks bid farewell to the Internet in the face of brutal censorship/surveillance law

Turkey's brutal new Internet law grants the Turkish Telecommunications Directorate the power to arbitrarily censor Web-pages to the individual URL level, much like the Great Firewall of China -- meaning that specific articles that are critical of the state can be censored while leaving the remainder...

Let's say you have been granted a student visa to a country. While you were studying in that country you were beaten nearly to death by some racist citizens. After you recovered enough you went back to your homeland to visit your family. When you wanted to go back and finish of your studies the government of that country said that you were not allowed back in although your visa was still valid. So, what do you think is going on here?

An Open Letter to the Makers of The Wolf of Wall Street, and the Wolf Himself

An Open Letter to the Makers of The Wolf of Wall Street, and the Wolf Himself

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, dear Kings of Hollywood, but you have been conned.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Christina McDowell, formerly Christina Prousalis. I am the daughter of Tom Prousalis, a man the Washington Post described as "just some guy on trial for penny-stock fraud." (I had to change my name after my father stole my identity and then threatened to steal it again, but I'll get to that part later.) I was eighteen and a freshman in college when my father and his attorneys forced me to attend his trial at New York City's federal courthouse so that he "looked good" for the jury -- the consummate family man...

Joseph and Mary can't make it to Bethlehem, on Banksy's Christmas card

Joseph and Mary can’t make it to Bethlehem, on Banksy’s Christmas card

Yesterday an image that is purportedly British street artist Banksy’s Christmas card this year started making the rounds on Twitter. The artwork in question is, in many ways, a conventional Biblical landscape painting, which shows what are presumably the figures of Joseph and Mary — she astride a donkey — making their way toward Bethlehem, only to find their route blocked by the graffiti-covered Irsaeli West Bank barrier.

To the left, a shepherd tends his sheep, while in the distant sky a cross-shaped star lights up the heavens over the imposing concrete wall.

Should Poll Results Be TIME's Person of the Year? Vote now

Not that it means much but as Time Magazine's vote for ''person of the year'' comes to a close Miley Cyrus and Recep Tayyip Erdoğan are competing for the first place. Now, lets just take a moment to look at our thumbs and ask; did humans really evolved?

Çok ciddiye alınacak birşey değil ama Time Dergisi'nin ''yılın kişiliği'' oylamasında Miley Cyrus ve Recep Tayyip Erdoğan çekişiyor. Şimdi başparmaklarımıza bakalım ve soralım; insanlık hakikaten evrim geçirdi mi?


http://poy.time.com/2013/11/25/vote-now-who-should-be-times-person-of-the-year/slide/poll-results/

As always, TIME's editors will choose the Person of the Year, but that doesn't mean readers shouldn't have their say. Cast your vote for the person you think most influenced the news this year for better or worse - in both a straight yes/no poll and a candidate face-off. Voting closes at 11:59 p.m.…
