With controversy raging in Turkey over students living in mixed-sex accommodation, the following comedy sketch entitled "Four ways for men and women to live together" has appeared:

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x16yek ... 4-yolu_fun

There is a lot of dialogue, but basically an inspector from the Provincial Governate appears and confronts two men and a woman who are sharing the same accommodation. The first suggestion is for a change of clothing: the woman appears to be the cleaner rather than a resident of the house. The second suggestion is to dress the house up as if it were an office. The third suggestion is to change sides - the woman makes it appear that she also an inspector from the governate and she says that she has already completed her inspection and has found that there are only men living there so they might as well go back to the office together. The final suggestion is for the woman to dress up as a man. If all of this fails, there is one more possibility: give up on humanity!

Erdogan's Stormtroopers aren't waiting for a change in the law to ban mixed-sex student accommodation before they burst in to the private lives of the citizenry.

Hurriyet reporting that raids have already started in one neighbourhood...

"... A university student staying at a house in Istanbul’s Tophane neighborhood has claimed that her house was entered by police on Nov. 5 and her family relations were questioned by the police, in relation to the recent controversy over mixed-sex student accommodation. She also told the Hürriyet Daily News that a number of similar raids were staged in the neighborhood at the same time..."

News from Hurriyet of the great use of the TV streaming service UStream by the Gazi Park protesters, with just one of the channel streams attracting 4 million viewers, people tuning in to get coverage of the protests that were so sadly neglected by traditional broadcasters.

"... UStream, the leading video technology platform allowing individuals to broadcast live online with their mobile devices, said 4 million people watched Turkey’s Gezi Park protests as clashes between police and protesters on the mainstream news channels were not broadcasted properly.

“There was an amazing traffic during the protests in Turkey, an incredible creativity by users. Some 4 million people watched only one channel at the time after protesters spontaneously created channels on UStream,” company’s marketing VP David Thompson told the Hürriyet Daily News on Nov. 7 at the UStream headquarters in San Francisco..."

Another morning with no signs of secular Turkish support. It seems like we'll have to wait forever in this enemy forum.


Someone has lost his job in bankrupt south cyp and doesn't have better things to do since last month.


Wrong!

In the city of Adana, at the ceremony to mark the seventy-fifth anniversary of the death of the founder of the Republic of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the provincial governor of Adana, Avni Coş, regarded as being a stooge of the ruling Islamist AK Party, was given a very rough reception by the crowd. As the governor was being driven away, somebody in the crowd shouted "God damn you" at which the governor got out of his limousine, pointed out the person who had shouted out from the crowd to the police and instructed them, "Arrest that ****** who said 'God damn you'". At this, the person in the crowd was arrested.

The word indicated by "******" that he used literally means "pimp", and is a strong swearword in Turkish.

The incident is captured on the following video.

Of the ten people arrested at a ceremony to commemorate the anniversary of Ataturk's death in Adana, which turned into a demonstration against the government and provincial governor, Hüseyin Avni Coş, nine have been fined 186 lira each for committing a misdemeanour, and one will face judicial proceedings.

Meanwhile the Home Minister, Muammer Güler, has issued a very mild statement saying that the public use of a very strong swearword by the provincial governor with reference to one of the protestors "was not nice."
