JOURNAL ENTRY 7  (Conjuctions)

                                           DEVİL WEARS PRADA

I have to say it is one of the funniest movies I've seen. The screenwriter both has maintained everything that was funny about the book, as well as chucked a lot of the duller subplots, and has formulated a movie that is a great deal more enjoyable than the book.
I'm sure you're all familiar with the basic premise - naive small-town girl comes to the big city hoping to be a journalist, and gets a job as assistant to Miranda Priestly, the much-feared editor of 'Runway' magazine. Thankfully, the cast was almost perfect and elevated the movie to a level it would not have otherwise reached.
I thought that Anne Hathaway was very appealing in her role; she made Andrea more likable and less snobbish than she was in the book although the screenwriter deserves credit for that, as well, she looked great in the couture she wore through most of the movie.
The supporting players were also very good, especially Emily Blunt (as Andrea's caustic fellow assistant, Emily) and Stanley Tucci (as Miranda's loyal but beleaguered right-hand man, Nigel). On many occasions, they stole scenes from the ostensibly 'central' character of Andrea.
The movie, while maintaining the book's premise, does not follow the book too closely, which I liked. The entire subplot from the book is eliminated; both Andrea's parents and boyfriend are less significant in the movie than in the book. I agreed with these changes, but I found those aspects of the book to be quite boring, and their omission made for a more streamlined movie.
I strongly recommend this movie to virtually anyone.

                                                           WHAT İS ''HAARP'' ?


           This video mentiones a project called '' HAARP '' which stands for high frequency active auroral research project. It says that this technology's background was formed by Nicole Tesla and those who can develop this technology will be the sole owner of the world and now this technology is used by United States America and Israel. It adds that it was calculated that if it is run during one hour, it releases an energy as much as an atomic bomb does. It also says that HAARP was erected at a peciluar place near the US military base in Gakona Alaska because it is a perfect place to control the electromanyetic areas of the world without anyone knowing. The video also explains that HAARP can change the climates, create earthquakes, melt polar ices, control the ocean waves, control the human minds by playing with the world's energy fields and play with the ozone layer. It adds that when it is used to trigger to form the eartquakes, there is an odd change of colour at the sky.
          I liked this video in terms of the information it conveys and being expository in every aspect and proving things that it alleged with pictures or images. I think that these all are correct and soon something must be done. We cannot leave the world to the hands of America or Israel. However, there is no such power that it will challenge these two country. They have already owned the world since very early times. This project they have can even change the world and nobody says anything.

WHAT İS '' HAARP''

HAARP stands for The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program. The goal of this program is to further advance our knowledge of the physical and electrical properties of the Earth's ionosphere which can affect our military and civilian communication and navigation systems. The HAARP program operates a world-class ionospheric research facility located in Gakona, Alaska. They say it is for communications, but, in fact, the real motive is much more wicked. The name of this 'research' is a nonsensical name protecting its potential to be worse than a nuclear bomb. It can be used to create a world war, thus pretty much ending the human race as we know it. It could be done by raping the sky with energy rays from large amounts of antennas placed at HAARP's location in Alaska. These rays of energy could then potentially be reflected back into the Earth's ionosphere on an extremely low frequency, called ELF waves. This can change the ELF waves to an extremely dangerous weapon. These low frequencies improve radio contact between people, even if  you are inside a thick concrete bunker or a submarine.For  instance, US military might be able to locate missiles and detect bunkers created by the 'enemy' with ease. Moreover, it can also block signals from any electronic device, which would mean you could stop anyone, anywhere from communicating electronically. The pros of this project are good, but at no point outweight the terrifying cons of it's technology. Together with the ozone layer, the ionosphere protects us from being fried by the sun. We are being so obsessed with the global warming destroying the ozone layer, but HAARP could destroy the ionosphere in seconds. Despite warnings and protests, it is going ahead anyway. They are invested 30 million dollars into it. 60 antennas are being tested already. Scientists intend to heat the ionosphere with the antennas, in turn this will create ion clouds that will replicate an optical lense, which will reflect the ELF waves and rain shit down upon us. They can be aimed at anywhere at all, depending on where the waves are going.The truth is, that HAARP camouflages the worlds biggest weapon ever created, one that could literally destroy the world. Our skies are being programmed, and we are not far behind.

                                                        THE WORLD OF METU
     
                                                 
            The latest slogan of metu '' I brain METU '' is exactly as it should be because it explains everthing about metu and its student. Of course,  when it is read, the saying does not give the whole meaning to the readers. It is not expository ; nevertheless , one can anticipate the message intended to convey it to the readers. When the video of the slogan is watched, it is better to understand what the slogan shelters in it. I think, it addresses both metu and its students in every aspect. Those who speak in the video completely tell the truths of metu. For instance, as they say, metu people do not accept any borders or limititations; they think freely and express their ideas freely. Of course there are much more words said about metu and its students in the whole video. These are just two of them. However, there are so many things which can be said about metu and its student ; therefore , the slogan is a bit insufficient. I can see that it is somewhat short but really meaningful. Despite this, I think it could be more developed according to the message it has. If ı chose a slogan for metu, I definitely regard the slogan '' the world of metu'' as an appropriate slogan since when both metu students and its campus is taken into consideration everybody admits this slogan. Apart from these, metu students' souls are enough to form a world on its own. To conlude, being a metu student is really a concessionary.
