What we are??..Humans or Monkeys??-Imagine!



Ernest Cline (born in 1972 in Ashland Ohio) is a comedian, spoken word artist and screenwriter. His most popular spoken word pieces include: "Dance, Monkeys, Dance", "Nerd Porn Auteur"(text)(mp3) and "When I Was a Kid."(text)(mp3)

"Dance, Monkeys, Dance"(Video em Portugês)
-en inglés (con subtítulos portugueses)




Did we evolve from monkeys?

Humans did not evolve from monkeys. Humans are more closely related to modern apes than to monkeys(see differences between monkeys and apes) but we didn't evolve from apes, either. Humans share a common ancestor with modern African apes, like gorillas and chimpanzees. Scientists believe this common ancestor existed 5 to 8 million years ago.(Sivapithecus-Australopithecus)Shortly thereafter, the species diverged into two separate lineages. One of these lineages ultimately evolved into gorillas and chimps, and the other evolved into early human ancestors called hominids. ( Frequently Asked Questions about Evolution/Where we came from)

Εξελιχθήκαμε από τη μαϊμού;

Οι άνθρωποι δεν εξελίχθηκαν από τη μαϊμού. Οι άνθρωποι σχετίζονται περισσότερο με τους σύγχρονους ουρακοτάγκους,γορίλες,χιμπατζήδες, απ'ό,τι με τη μαϊμού, αλλά ούτε εξελιχθήκαμε από αυτούς. Οι άνθρωποι μοιράζονται έναν κοινό πρόγονο με τους σύγχρονους αφρικάνικους πιθήκους, όπως τους γορίλες και τους χιμπατζήδες. Οι επιστήμονες θεωρούν ότι αυτός ο κοινός πρόγονος υπήρξε 5 έως 8 εκατομμύριο έτη πριν.Εκτοτε, το είδος απέκλινε σε δύο γραμμές καταγωγής. Μια από αυτές εξελίχθηκε τελικά στους γορίλλες και τους χιμπατζήδες, και η άλλη εξελίχθηκε στους πρώτους ανθρώπινους προγόνους,τα αποκαλούμενα ανθρωποειδή.

Οι σημερινοί χιμπαντζήδες, ουραγκοτάγκοι και γορίλες είναι πιθανόν απόγονοι εκείνης της ομάδας κατάρρινων πιθήκων(Δρυοπίθηκοι,Ραμαπίθηκοι) από την οποία φαίνεται να έλκει την καταγωγή του και ο άνθρωπος.(Η καταγωγή και η εξέλιξη του Ανθρώπινου Γένους-http://www.physics4u.gr)(Μέρος 2-Αυστραλοπίθηκοι ή προάνθρωποι)

Να μαζευτούν υπογραφές και για ένα αξιοπρεπές άρθρο στη βικιπαίδεια->(Ανθρώπινη εξέλιξη) δεν υπάρχουν και πολλά στο ελληνόφωνο ιντερνετ(στο σχολείο μάλλον θα καθυστερήσει να διδαχτεί) :-

Φαντάσου να μην υπάρχει παράδεισος
είναι εύκολο αν προσπαθήσεις
ούτε κόλαση κάτω από τα πόδια μας
και πάνω μας μόνο ο ουρανός
φαντάσου όλοι οι άνθρωποι
να ζούνε μόνο για το σήμερα…

Φαντάσου να μην υπάρχουν κράτη
δεν είναι δα και δύσκολο
καμιά αιτία για να σκοτώσεις ή να σκοτωθείς
και καμιά θρησκεία
φαντάσου όλοι οι άνθρωποι
να ζουν ειρηνικά...

Φαντάσου να μην υπάρχουν ιδιοκτησίες
αναρωτιέμαι αν μπορείς
καμιά ανάγκη για απληστία ή για φτώχεια
μια αδελφότητα ανθρώπων
φαντάσου όλους τους ανθρώπους
να μοιράζονται τον κόσμο...

Μπορεί να λες ότι είμαι ένας ονειροπόλος
αλλά δεν είμαι ο μόνος
ελπίζω μια μέρα να έρθεις κι εσύ μαζί μας
κι ο κόσμος να γίνει ένας.

Visions of War/Οψεις Πολέμου


WW II Tribute-Music:
Craig Armstrong-"Laura's theme", album "The Space between Us"


1.The Battle of Crete (20 May 1941-1 June),Greece
2.Operation Market Garden,Netherlands-(September 17- 25, 1944)
3.Naval Battle of Midway,Pacific Ocean(June 4- 7, 1942)



The Battle of Crete is unique in three respects: it was the first mainly airborne invasion in history;it was the first time the Allies made significant use of the decipherment of the german Enigma code; and it was the first time invading nazi troops encountered mass resistance from a civilian population.The battle introduced a revolutionary form of warfare and may have had a significant impact on the course of events of the Second World War. In light of the heavy casualties suffered by the parachutists, Adolf Hitler forbade further airborne operations. Crete was dubbed "the graveyard of the German parachutists."

Casualties:
Invadors (4,465 German graves only at Maleme cemetery) to over 15.000 totally.
The Allies(British,Australians,New Zealandians) lost 3,500 soldiers
Greek-Cretan casualties till the end of WW II:6,593 men, 1,113 women and 869 children



Η μάχη της Κρήτης(20 Μαΐου 1941- 1 Ιουνίου 1941) είναι μοναδική από τρεις απόψεις: ήταν η πρώτη εξολοκλήρου εναέρια εισβολή στην ιστορία, η πρώτη φορά που οι σύμμαχοι έκαναν ουσιαστική χρήση της αποκωδικοποίησης του γερμανικού κώδικα Enigma,ήταν η πρώτη φορά που οι Ναζί εισβολείς αντιμετωπισαν μαζική αντίσταση από τον άμαχο πληθυσμό. Η μάχη εισήγαγε μια επαναστατική μορφή εχθροπραξίας και μπορεί να είχε ασκήσει σημαντική επίδραση στην πορεία των γεγονότων του δεύτερου παγκόσμιου πολέμου. Λαμβάνοντας υπόψη τις βαριές απώλειες των αλεξιπτωτιστών, ο Χίτλερ απαγόρευσε τις περαιτέρω αερομεταφερόμενες επιχειρήσεις.Η Κρήτη ονομάστηκε "το νεκροταφείο των γερμανικών αλεξιπτωτιστών."

Νεκροί
Γερμανοί(από 4.465 γερμανικοί τάφοι μόνο στο Μάλεμε μέχρι πάνω από 15.000 θύματα) Σύμμαχοι(Βρετανοί, Αυστραλοί,Νεο-Ζηλανδοί) 3.500.
Ελληνες-Κρητικοί μέχρι το τέλος του πολέμου:6,593 άντρες , 1.113 γυναίκες και 869 παιδιά



The width of the Territorial waters, with both sides currently possess 6 nautical miles (11 km) off their shores in the Aegean Sea. Greece has the right to unilateral expansion to 12 nautical miles, in both the Aegean and the Ionian seas, based on the International Law of the Sea. Turkey has expanded her territorial waters to 12 nautical miles in the Black and Mediterranean seas, based on the Law of the Sea,although Turkey has not signed the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.^Moreover,the Turkish Grand National Assembly passed a resolution on June 8, 1995, authorizing the Turkish government to use force if Greece attempts to broaden her waters to 12 miles(War Threat-Casus Beli)



The conflict over military flight activities has led to a practice of continuous tactical military provocations, with Turkish aircraft flying in the zones over which Greece has control (Athens FIR), and Greek aircraft constantly intercepting them and aircraft from both countries engaging in mock dog-fights. These operations often cause casualties and losses for both the Greek and Turkish Air Forces. Amongst the lost pilots are the well known stories of Nikolaos Sialmas, who was lost near Agios Eustratios island of Northern Aegean sea, the death of the Turkish F-16 pilot Nail Erdoğan, who was possibly shot down by a Greek Mirage 2000 in 1996,[5] and the recent death of Cretan Kostas Iliakis, who crashed after a collision with a Turkish F-16 as he was trying to stop a what was officially called a "spying operation of Turkey towards Crete" over the island of Karpathos at the South Aegean sea.[6]

Song adapted by Italian musician Daniele Sepe/Collages by IdaKrot.

Same amala oro kelena

Sa o Roma, babo, babo
Sa o Roma, o daje
Sa o Roma, babo, babo

All the Rroms, dad, sacrify sheeps but me, poor drummer,
I must stay away. Oh yes, mum, it's our celebration.
It's our celebration, Ederlezi... dad, a sheep for us.
All the Rroms, mum, sacrify sheeps, and all the Rroms, dad,
Dad, all the Rroms, mum. All the Rroms, dad, dad
Ederlezi, Ederlezi, all the Rroms, mum.(kustupedia)

Oλοι οι Ρομά,πατέρα,πρόβατα θυσιάζουν μα εγώ ο φτωχός τυμπανιστής
πρέπει να μείνω μακριά.Ναί μαμά είν' η γιορτή μας.

Ederlezi the known song of the film Time of gypsies(video) is the gypsie name of the serbian celebration Đurđevdan,of Saint George(celebrated on April 23 by the Julian calendar,May 6 by Gregorian calendar and welcomes the return of Springtime).It is celebrated both by christian and muslim balkan and anatolian roma people.The name comes from the turkish-muslim celebration Hıdırellez or Hidrellez,a combination of Hizir(Saint George)Αγιος Γεώργιος and Ilyas/Elijah/Προφήτης Ηλίας
(Kustupedia)

it 's a good example of the term Syncretism-Συγκρητισμός.

(( The People's Voice(wiki) (called in Hebrew המפקד הלאומי, literally The National Census) is an Israeli-Palestinian civil initiative dedicated to advancing the process of achieving peace between Israel and the Palestinians. Co-founders israeli Ami Ayalon and palestinian Sari Nusseibeh signed the initiative on 27 July 2002, and officially launched it at a press conference held in Tel-Aviv on 25 June 2003))

The key proposals of the initiative are:

  1. Two states for two nations.
  2. Permanent borders based on the June 4, 1967 lines (with the possibility of equitable exchanges of territory for reasons of security, demography or territorial integrity).
  3. Jerusalem is to be an open city and the capital of both states. Arab neighbourhoods will be under Palestinian sovereignty, Jewish neighbourhoods under Israel. There will be no political sovereignty over the Temple Mount / Haram al Sherif.
  4. Palestinian refugees will be allowed to return to the territories of the Palestinian state only, Jews to the territories of Israel. An international fund will be established for the compensation and rehabilitation of Palestinian refugees.
  5. The Palestinian state will be demilitarised.
  6. Upon implementation of the Statement of Principles, when a peace accord is signed, the claims of both sides shall terminate and conflict end.
