Arnavutluk Kralı Zog’un Türkiye’ye Sığınmasının Türk Basınına Yansıması

Arnavutlar, nüfusun çoğunluğunun Müslüman olması sebebiyle Türklerle birlikte Osmanlı Devleti’ni beş asır yöneten millet olma özelliğine sahiptir. Türkiye, kurtuluş ve kuruluşta Atatürk’ün liderliğinde tam bağımsız bir politika izlerken aynı dönemde Atatürk gibi bir liderden yoksun olan Arnavutluk, İtalya’ya tavizler vererek Cumhuriyetten Krallığa geçti. İtalya’nın etkisiyle Balkan Paktına dâhil olamayan Arnavutluk, bu ülkenin işgaliyle karşı karşıya kaldı. Kral, iki günlük oğlu ve lohusa eşiyle tacını ve tahtını terk ederek önce Yunanistan’a sonra da Türkiye’ye sığınmak zorunda kaldı. Devrik Kralın iki aylık (03 Mayıs-01 Temmuz 1939) zoraki misafirliğinin Türk basını temelinde (Dışişleri Bakanlığı Türk Diplomatik Arşivi ile Devlet Arşivleri Cumhuriyet Arşivinde belge bulunamadığı için) ilk defa bir akademik çalışmada incelenmesi, bu makalenin özgünlüğünü oluşturmaktadır. Arnavutluk’un işgalinin Türk basınına ve Türk dış politikasına yansıması, ayrı bir bilimsel çalışma konusu yapıldığı için bu çalışma, Kral Zog’un Türkiye’ye sığınmasıyla sınırlandırılmıştır

The Travel of the Teachers in Istanbul to Bursa, and Mustafa Kemal Pasha's Speech as the Head Teacher

Mustafa Kemal Paşa, after the Battle of Dumlupınar, while, on the one hand, was looking for a remedy to make the victory permanent, on the other, with no delay, made preparations for building the future without crowing over the victory. In this scope, to give his messages and declare his programme, he chose Bursa and stayed there for a fortnight. Bursa was the first capital of the Ottoman Empire, and had then declared its liberation from foreign occupation. In this historical place, he was going to adress the teachers coming from Istanbul with the teachers in Bursa. But, the capital of the Empire was also still under occupation. He appeared before teachers and gave messages for the future not only as a commander who was proud of his victory, but as a theoretician and revolutionist who wanted to secure the future of his country based on learning and science. It is obvious that he knew that he would win this difficult War of Independence and he was prepared for the future plans. He won the War of Independence on the military front by the total mobilization of a nation. Following this, he would start a struggle for gaining a victory of the constitution and the process of illumination by the army of education based on reason and science. Teachers, soldiers of the army of education, would be the pioneers of this process and thus carry the lights of education to Anatolia. Therefore, through the teachers coming from Bursa who greeted his victory, Atatürk assigned the duty of enlightenment of our nation, which would be based on learning and science, to all of the teachers in the country. In this regard, the study aims to make an original contribution by means of examining the trips of the teachers from Istanbul and analysing, for the first time, the similarities between Mustafa Kemal Pasha's Bursa speech and the Amasya Circular in terms of their motive and method

Examining of the effects of aerobic dance and step dance exercises on some hematological parameters and blood lipids

The aim of the study was to examine the the effects of aerobic and step dance exercises on hematological and blood lipids parameters. 32 university students were voluntarily participated in this study. They were randomly assigned to aerobic dance (N=16) and step dances (N=16). All groups were participated an hour aerobic or step dance exercise session 2 times in a week during 3 months. Wilcoxon Sign test was used to analyze pretest and posttest results of variables. As results, significant differences were found in the pre- and post-intervention scores for triglycerides (TC), red blood cell (RBC), and hematocrit (HCT) in Step dance group. Although there were decreases in triglycerides levels for both aerobic dance and step dance groups, only significant reduction was found in step dance group. Step dance exercises was better than aerobic dance in terms of increasing RBC and decreasing cholesterol, low density lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol level. Aerobic dance exercises were better than step dance in terms of increasing high density lipoproteins (HDL). Moreover, when comparing the level of decreasing of Hemoglobin (HGB) significantly, aerobic dance group were better than step dance group. HCT increased significantly more in step dance group as compared with aerobic dance group. Step dance cause more increment than aerobic dance in terms of platetes (PLT) level. The data of this study indicates that step dance is more effective than aerobic dance in terms of decreasing LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and cholesterol for university students

Luminescence dating of prehistoric site of smintheion (Gulpinar) in NW Turkey

This study aims to place the prehistoric settlement of Smintheion in northwestern Turkey in its temporal setting on the basis of the dating of the quartz from pottery and sediments collected from the site employing Optically Stimulated Luminescence and Thermoluminescence techniques. The site belongs to the problematic Middle Chalcolithic period in western Anatolia. This period represents a cultural upheaval in western Anatolia as it has a completely different material culture when compared to that of the preceding Early Chalcolithic period. The pottery and sediment samples were collected from two different locations of the Middle Chalcolithic settlement at Smintheion for dating study. The fact that this examined settlement is represented by a single cultural level provides an opportunity to obtain secure and reliable dates for the settlement. Results of this study show that the site can be dated to a period between 4800 and 4500 B.C.Publisher's Versio

Distribution, frequency and occurrence of cereal nematodes on the Central Anatolian Plateau in Turkey and their relationship with soil physicochemical properties

The distribution of important plant-parasitic and free-living nematodes in the cereal production areas of the Central Anatolian Plateau (CAP) of Turkey was investigated with systematic surveys. Two important plant-parasitic nematode groups were found widely distributed; cereal-cyst nematodes (78.3%) and root-lesion nematodes (42.6%). Cereal cyst nematodes (CCN) were identified as Heterodera filipjevi in 18 provinces. Heterodera latipons was found in only one province. Pratylenchus thornei and P. neglectus were the most widely distributed species of root-lesion nematodes. Other frequently recorded plant-parasitic nematodes belonged to the genera Geocenamus (52.4%), Pratylenchoides (35.6%), Helicotylenchus (29.7%) and Paratylenchus (19.2%). Konya on the southern CAP had a significantly high incidence of P. neglectus as well as free-living nematodes. The incidence of CCN was greatest in areas of sandy soils on the CAP, with densities of up to 95 cysts (100 g soil)-1. Population densities of Geocenamus, Pratylenchus and Pratylenchoides were high in some locations. Soil physicochemical properties were investigated for their relationship to nematode distribution. There was a slight positive correlation of P. thornei and clay content; conversely, there was a significant negative correlation of P. neglectus with clay and a positive correlation with sand. Electrical conductivity (EC) was positively correlated with P. neglectus. Nematodes in the genera Helicotylenchus, Paratylenchus, Trophurus and Tylenchorhynchus were only recorded at low population densities in the sampled area. By contrast, nematodes in the genera Aphelenchus, Aphelenchoides, Ditylenchus, Dorylaimus, Tylenchus and bacterivorous genera had relatively high populations. Total free-living nematodes were positively correlated with EC and zinc (Zn) concentration. The Zn content of soil was generally at a level deficient for plant growt
