Istanbul Odyssey: June 2006
http://istanbulodyssey.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 29, 2006. Movie Review: The Da Vinci Code. The"Dream Factory" replicates its formula all over the world. The differences are subtle, but noticeable in this cultural experience that has been enjoyed around the world for nearly a century. Walking into the Multiplex on Istaklal, you could be anywhere in the world. Dark tones juxtaposed by bright lights and brighter movie posters. Extortionate prices for stale popcorn and sugar water. Luckily, the show we want is in original soundtrack.

Istanbul Odyssey
http://istanbulodyssey.blogspot.com/2006/12/istanbul-final-word-in-same-way-that.html
Thursday, December 14, 2006. In the same way that Berlin is not Germany, London is not England and New York is not America, Istanbul is not Turkey. These are city-states with their own seperate identity. This can be demonstrated when you meet someone from these places and you ask "Where are you from? And they say "New York.". Then I usually say "That is in the US isn't it? I am from Perth." and they give me a strange look and ask "Where? But that's my bitch. 8211; people have been very good at trying to ...

Sunday, December 10, 2006. Just a short note, as I am feeling a bit rough, to all those who made our Going Away Bash, so memorable. They say a picture tells a thousand words, so I will let the pictures do the talking - go to the "My Photos" link. We will miss you all, but it is a small world, and we will meet again!

Istanbul Odyssey: May 2006
http://istanbulodyssey.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 26, 2006. Over the past few months I have received several emails from prospective teachers wanting to know what my employers are like. To save me writing this stuff over and over again, I will blog it and they can see for themselves. I have been employed with English First Istanbul for three months. So far I have. Found it to be a reasonable place to work. My colleagues are a pretty good bunch. I like to think I have made some good friends here. They are usual sort of people who get ...There...

Saturday, June 14, 2008. Join the Billboard Liberation Front. Why should they have a monopoly on public space? Thursday, June 12, 2008. There's a reason my posting level has gone down. I've recently taken over as Managing Editor of a local indy magazine: Xpat. Four thousand copies are published quarterly and distributed around the south of Taiwan. It doesn't pay, but you do get very nice business cards. To download the latest issue follow this link:. Perils of Scuba Diving. How to Learn to Scuba Dive.

Odyssey Incorporated: February 2009
http://odysseyinc.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 21, 2009. For some time now, smokers have had to endure nasty warning ads such as this. To remind them of what they already know - smoking is bad. This seems a bit unfair when the rest of the population can engage in dangerous activities without fear of being reminded of the obvious. So, the Odyssey is seeking to redress the balance. Please feel free to forward any further suggestions. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). One that that you can bookmark and get connected to all the others. You d...

Odyssey Incorporated: Religious Response
http://odysseyinc.blogspot.com/2009/01/religious-response.html
Monday, January 5, 2009. I recently posted a cartoon I found regarding science teachers wanting creationism taught in schools. Gary posted this comment:. A very controversial issue. I cannot agree. The two concepts: Creationism and Evolutionism have equally good arguments for our existence but, only creationism provides a reasonable, plausable, and complete picture. Evolutionism falls abysmally short in explaining the origin of the "big bang". Something appearing out of nowhere? Personally, I don't have ...

Thursday, November 20, 2008. Old School Mongolian: A Musical Sampling. Sorry about the quality. Sunday, November 9, 2008. Greetings from the People's Republic. No time to write. Just got back from dinner at the most amazing Peking Duck restaurant you're ever likely to come across. Will send more details when there's time. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Odyssey Incorporated: Warning Ads
http://odysseyinc.blogspot.com/2009/02/warning-ads.html
Saturday, February 21, 2009. For some time now, smokers have had to endure nasty warning ads such as this. To remind them of what they already know - smoking is bad. This seems a bit unfair when the rest of the population can engage in dangerous activities without fear of being reminded of the obvious. So, the Odyssey is seeking to redress the balance. Please feel free to forward any further suggestions. Here's a new campaign that needs some editing ;). March 25, 2009 at 8:52 PM. Already there. See:.
