2010EXPO


World Expositions are galleries of human inspirations and thoughts. Since 1851 when the Great Exhibition of Industries of All Nations was held in London, the World Expositions have attained increasing prominence as grand events for economic, scientific, technological and cultural exchanges, serving as an important platform for displaying historical experience, exchanging innovative ideas, demonstrating esprit de corps and looking to the future.



With a long civilisation, China favours international exchange and loves world peace. China owes its successful bid for the World Exposition in 2010 to the international community's support for and confidence in its reform and opening-up. The Exposition will be the first registered World Exposition in a developing country, which gives expression to the expectations the world's people place on China's future development.


Expo 2010 Shanghai China will be a great event to explore the full potential of urban life in the 21st century and a significant period in urban evolution. Fifty-five percent of the world population is expected to live in cities by the year 2010. The prospect of future urban life, a subject of global interest, concerns all nations, developed or less developed, and their people. Being the first World Exposition on the theme of city, Exposition 2010 will attract governments and people from across the world, focusing on the theme "Better City, Better Life."

What are you waiting for? Come to Shanghai to know different cultures and enjoy the wonderful event wich you can travel around the world without visas.

Hi everybody!
I'm duygu and i'm from Turkey. I wanna give some information about my country. Turkey is developing very fast. Yes,there are some problems but i belive they'll be solved in the future. I wanna offer you Turkey for holiday. If you wanna spend your time for summer holiday i can offer you west and south of the turkey because there are lots of brilliant beaches and also hotels. If you wanna visit historical places,offering can be difficult. because every city has got special history in Turkey. But I can say Istanbul is the best city to visit turkey. Istanbul's a complicate city.You can see lots of diffirent cultures there. If you prefer istanbul,you will have a chance to see bosphorus.It's great. You can have a summer holiday with smiling sun,you can visit lots of historical places.But i should say istanbul has got traffic problem. although you should see it. If you visit and like it, we'll be pleased:):):)
The Football World Cup will take place in Brazil at 2014. Twelve cities will be receiving matches of the competition. It`s is the first time that more than 10 cities will be participating of the event. The head organizer says that it is because of the big country extension, but some people attest that the real reason for this is a political deal involving the public money that will be liberate for these cities. This money is supposed to be used to improve the infrastructure necessary for the competition. Unfortunately, in Brazil, like here in England ( according with I read at the newspapers here), we can`t trust in the politicians.

In spite of these problens, Brazil will always be a wonderfull country. You should all go there when you have the opportunity!

The ‘greenest’ development in Turkey coming up in Istanbul




The VARYAP Meridian Project, which was unveiled in Istanbul, the largest city in Turkey, recently has been described as Turkey’s “most green” development. A mixed-use, super-development which will house Istanbul’s new financial and business district, the project is located the Atasehir district.

It’s been designed by RMJM, based in New York and Istanbul and is considered by many as a model for future green development. The VARYAP Meridian Project has been designed as per LEED standards and after “carefully analysing” the site to take advantage of the surrounding topography, context and climate, according to the developers.

The project is a 60-storey tower comprising 1,500 residential units, a 5-star hotel, offices, conference facilities as well as landscaped public areas and parking spaces.

The residential part of the VARYAP Meridian Project will have an array of options ranging from posh 5-bedroom penthouse apartments to small studio apartments. It indends to serve 20,000 people, should to cost $1 billion and scheduled to be completed in 2011.

The special features of the green project include several sustainable factors such as sites for collecting rainwater, facilities to optimise water usage and cut energy consumption, cooling water pools that add to the external landscape, wind-turbines, as well as a co-generation plant that will generate electricity for the developmen

Hongdae Club Day

Back in 2001, a monthly event started in Hongdae, ( Hongdae means Hongik University, which is well known for its Art department.In the 1980s, there were pockets of pubs, small restaurants, used-book stores, art supply stores and art institutions. However, since the 90s, the place has boomed with eclectic restaurants, unique cafes, a dazzling nightlife, and a rowdy underground.), called Hongdae Club Day. On the last Friday of every month, thousands pack the streets and clubs and pay a 20,000-won(about 10-pounds) payment which grants you admission to even ten Hongdae-area clubs. But get your tickets early, as there is a limit.
Also check out this video. What do you think? Really Coooooooooool!

Hi everybody!

I am from Turkey. The different cultures meet in my country. It is like a bridge beetween Europe and Asia. But people respect each other, I mean their religion,traditional, life style..etc. When you come Turkey, you can see different type of the life. Also it is important which part of Turkey you come. west of Turkey is more modern than east part.In last years, most of things were changed and even is changing.It's life is following Europe.In the future, I think turkey will be one of the leader country in the world.

Duygu Cavdar

Hi everybody!
I'm Duygu and I'm from Turkey.I wanna give you some information about my country.I'm sure most of people hear Turkey.But I think some people have got wrong information about my country. I think like this because some people ask me interesting guestions.For example "have you got internet in your country?", "do you use camel for travelling?" I can say to you I haven't seen any camels in my country:) (of course except zoo:) ) Turkey is developing very fastly. Cities are extreme modern.If you have time for holiday I can offer Turkey. If you wanna spend your time for summer holiday i offer you west and south of the Turkey. There are lots of brilliant beachs and also hotels.If you prefer to visit historical places,offering somewhere is really difficult because every city has got special history.Although,Istanbul is the best place to visit Turkey. You can do everything at Istanbul whatever you want. You can have a summer holiday with smiling sun.You can visit lots of historical places.you can watch bosphorus etc.:) But i should say Istanbul is too crowded and it has got traffic problem.But I believe it'll solve in the future. if you visit and like turkey we will be pleased:):):):)

Duygu KOSE

hi everybody!
I came from Turkey and I live in Istanbul. Istanbul is a big city in Turkey. and every year population increase a lot. so I think in next 10 years, Istanbul will have lots of long apartments. and I think they will build new bridges for transport.
every year lots of student emigrate to Istanbul for university education. then anybody don't want to come back in their city. Generally, they rent a house. but find a rent house is become difficult. so their taxes are become expensive. if you buy a house in Istanbul, you would have much more benefit. if this event continue like this, Istanbul will be most expensive city in Turkey.

MJ Burial Could Cost Jacksons a Pretty Penny

Throwing a memorial service for Michael Jackson is a lot cheaper when you trade the Staples Center for the more traditional places to honor the dead.

Law enforcement sources tell us the cost of providing police and other city services for the private memorial at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale could top $50,000. That's like a Cosco version of a memorial, compared to the estimated $1.4 million to stage the event at the Staples Center in L.A.

A Glendale PD source tells us the Jackson family will foot the bill for police and other services associated with the service, which will be held on August 29.

Last Photo of Princess Diana

Although profoundly popular in life, Princess Diana's untimely death in 1997 continues to fuel controversy. Today, many in the mainstream media and tabloids - particularly in Europe - are doing their best to sensationalize the Italian Chi Magazine cover story. The truth behind the "Final Photo of Princess Diana" is far less ominous.

:-)

Kings of Leon are soooooooooo great!!! Once u heard u are addicted to them!

What can you find in brighton ?

THE son of drum 'n bass star Goldie appeared in court yesterday accused of stabbing to death a gang rival.
Jamie Price, 22, is alleged to have knifed Marlon Morris, 21, four times outside a club.
The blade went through the victim's heart and liver. He was also knifed in the back so hard the weapon sliced into his shoulder blade.
The attack happened outside the Exhale club in Wolverhampton, West Midlands.

rice vs potatoes

DAI -Serein Upper-intermediate 7
In China ,I often eat rice.In the UK,I often eat potatoes.It's so hard to campare rice and potatoes .Which is more healthy ?Or which is more delicious?
I love rice ,so I prefer rice to potatoes.But a Brithsh maybe disagree with me.
Because of different history ,we have different custom .
I love rice ,and I don't hate potatoes.
Enjoy my life in Brighton with potatoes.
Miss my family in Brighton with rice.

These Are My Twisted Words

These Are My Twisted Words

"We've been recording for a while, and this was one of the first we finished.
We're pretty proud of it.

There's other stuff in various states of completion, but this is one we've been practicing, and which we'll probably play at this summer's concerts. Hope you like it" Thom Yorke

So... This are my twisted words.

what student's really want.....

Love is a wonderful thing

Young, Dumb and Living off Mum...

Who's been following this tv show on BBC iPlayer? I think Dina is definitely the most useless. Anyone agree or disagree?

Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona...

What did you think of this film? I really enjoyed although we didn't get to see the end. I thought the characters were very interesting and the cinematography was fantastic - really made me want to be in Spain. How do you think it finished?

What do you guys think about the old Disney Films like: The little mermaid or Aladin for example.

Brighton VS Rio de Janeiro.

Brighton is a very interesting city. Even if being a small city, we can find here people from all over the world. It is good to see how each one respect other people`s habits.

The weather here is so crazy! Maybe it is because of that people here always chat about it. In the same day we can observe drastic changes on the weather. It is always good to have a umbrella in your bag. The strong wind is usually present, no metter if it`s a sunny or a rainy day.

In my city, Rio de janeiro (Brasil), this features are different. It is very rarely to hear people speaking other languages, and we cant see many differences between the people`s habits. The weather is completly different! The temperature that is here now, seems to my city a strong winter! Cariocas (how we can appoint people who born in Rio de Janeiro), are used to hot sunny days without wind.

I wish everybody is enjoying your time in Brighton and i realy recomend all people to visit Rio de Janeiro, one of the most beautifull big city of the world.
Hiiiii!!!!!

Hi!
How do you do next to me? Is my smell ok? Here is everything ok, my mood, my condition is alright, but I could have slept more, but thanks for my wonderful memory I left home my key last night so I was trying to get into the house for a half hour (I was calling my housemates every minute, I left them messages, I threw little stones on their window etc.) So at the end of the night, I had to call my host family on the phone (they`re 70 years old!) and wake up them. They really liked me:D:D How was your night?
