Braille was also a French invention. Louis Braille went blind at a very young age. He was later accepted to the French Royal Institute for Blind Youth where he began working on his now famous system.

Braille said that he had been inspired by Charles Barbier’s "night writing".

Braille's final system was first presented in 1829.

A second revision was made later in 1837 which became the first small binary

form of writing developed in modern times. Braille proved to be an invaluable tool for the visually impaired ever since.

We can see some examples of this alphabet in the lifts.

In 2001, before Apple and Samsung started bombing the world with their superb smart phone devices of the last five or six years, there was the iPod, a small gadget that changed how we viewed and played music. To make a long story short, the MP3 was introduced to the world and CDs, which had previously replaced cassettes, which replaced vinyl records before them, joined them in the dusty archives of our music tech history.

Google Glass is a smart eyewear that helps you get exactly what you want right in front of your eyes, literally. It displays information in a smart phone-like, hands-free format but the only difference is that you wear it

instead of holding it. Don’t get too excited, though, because it will cost you a small fortune to make it yours on top of the fact that Google announced it is stopping sales.

YouTube was first launched in 2005 and since then, it has changed the lives of most young people (and many others) around the world. Let’s be honest here, watching every

large social and cultural change or even stupid trend from across the globe in an instant is one of the most exciting things about living in the twenty-first century. And yep, YouTube is mainly to thank for this.

THE HYDROGEN POWERED CARS

This is something that the humans have designed which if brought into considerable use can completely change the statistics of pollution of the planet Earth. The cars have the ability to use hydrogen in the combustion chamber and leave just a puff of water vapour. But the main disadvantage of the vehicle is the fact that they might just be a lot costly for normal use.

ROBOTICS

This is something that the modern day scientists of the 21st Century have been working alone for long. According to the very latest results in various experiments,

ANTI - GRAVITY

If we speak about the facts of classical physics, it is a truth that magnetic monopolies cannot exist. But this is what the dangerous humans have made possible with the experiments that they have conducted with the magnets. Many people see this as a prospect according to which one will not have to depend on wheels anymore.

NANOTECHNOLOGY

Arguably this is the most fascinating advent in the field of technology. The subject deals with the extremely small microscopic particles which are so fine that they can be injected into the system and repairs can be done to the human organs. This feat is still far away from becoming a reality but the prospects are great.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Have you ever thought of the fact that if your toy robot had the intelligence to understand when you want to play with it. This is

what the development in the field of artificial intelligence deals in. They will actually put some intelligence into your robot. The technology has its best prospects when robotics actually come and paces up with the speed of this development.

it has been proved that robots can be efficiently used in order to do certain stuffs that were previously done by men. This can have a great impact in the military section of a country.

HYPERSONIC TRANSPORTATION

The way we travel by aircraft has completely changed in this century. This is more due to the fact that there has been a prime

development in the area of Hyper-sonic transportation. Now you have planes and a train that travels very much equal to the speed of light. With proper development of the technology, it is not far away when we will seriously be able to travel all the countries of the world in just 80 days.

GENETIC ENGINEERING

This is arguably one of the greatest achievements of the scientists. We have not only been able to unlock the information in the gene of the animals, at the same time we also have merged the information and made new beings that are much better and stronger than their parents.

The Mongolfier

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to float high above the ground? You can in a hot air balloon. Jean-Francois Pilatre De Rozier was the first to ride in the balloon in 1783.

In September of that year, he completed the first unmanned test flight that lasted about 10-15 minutes.

The following month Joseph-Michel and Jaques-Etienne Montgolfier made the first untethered manned flight.

Modern hot air balloons, with an on-board heat source, would be developed by Ed Yost during the 1950's.

Barcelona is Spain's second largest city. Barcelona is the capital of the Catalonian region, as well as the province of Barcelona. Although Spanish is the official language in Spain, in the Catalonian region, Catalan is also recognized as the co-official language. Barcelona has many Historical places, different foods, famous people and sport teams.

The Oculus Rift

One of the most credible video game websites in the world, Game Spy, describes the Oculus Rift as the “closest we had come to Star Trek’s holodeck” and from a gamer’s point of view that’s not an exaggeration at all. But it’s only contribution and purpose is to entertain and nothing more. So, don’t get overexcited!

The Stethoscope

The stethoscope changed the way doctors could diagnose disorders forever and is truly one of the greatest French inventions of all time which have saved innumerable lives. This humble lifesaver was devised by the French physician René Laennec in 1816.It would immediately become one of the most important non-invasive

Re-Walk

Re-Walk is a revolutionary wearable robotic exoskeleton that provides powered hip and knee motion to enable individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) to stand upright and walk.

Recently introduced to the market, it has already become the most widely used device for people with motion problems and it is available for personal ownership.

medical instruments in the doctors' kit. It works by using a small disc-shaped resonator to amplify the internal sounds of the patient.

LOVE YOU MOM!

A little boy came up this mother in the kitchen one evening while she was fixing supper, and handed her a piece of paper that he had been writing on. After his mom dried her hands on an apron, she read it, and this was what it said:

-For cutting the grass: 5 dollars

-For cleaning up my room this week: 1 dollar

-For going to the store for you: 50 dollars

-Baby – Sitting my baby brother while you went shopping: 25 dollars

-Taking out the garbage: 1 dollar

-For getting a good report card: 5 dollars

-For cleaning up and raking the yard: 2 dollars

Well, his mother looked at him standing there, and the boy could see the memories flashing through her mind. She picked up the pen, turned over the paper he’d written on, and this was what she wrote:

-For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me:

NO CHARGE

-For all the nights that I’ve sat up with you, prayed for you:

NO CHARGE

-For all the trying times and all the tears that you’ve caused through the years:

The GREAT WAR

At a point in time, there were 4 kingdoms and they were The Atlantic, The Indian, The Pacific and The Arctic kingdom. The 4 kingdoms were living in peace until the biggest and the only war started. They didn't call it anything. The first kingdom that fell was The Pacific Kingdom. The war hasn't stopped for five years and our four antagonists will try to stop the war and try not to die.

Part-1

Chara Light was in the middle of a great rest but then Ron -The Annoying- came and sat on him so Chara threw him off of him. He broke his leg. Then he ate a sandwich that he created and he healed his leg. Ron left and Chara started to move to the deck. He saw a lot of wind creating a kind of attack. It was a tornado... He thought it would have been something cooler. Chara will remember that. He caught Ada and saved him from dying but then he hurt his neck instead so he tried to attack Ada but then something made him stop. He threw Ada to the bed he was sleeping on but then he realised he threw Ada onto Ron. Ron will forget this. He saw Zadrina laying on the god darn floor and he was trying NOT TO SWEAR BECAUSE HE HAD TO DO EVERYTHING HIMSELF. He saw a lot of wounds on Zadrina's diddly darn arm and he started poking those wounds because he was bored. Then he carried her to a different bed because he had some energy to spare. Then he saw Ron eating a sandwich but then... Chara started crying because he was horrified of the thought of eating one of Ron's sandwichs. He saw another ship was trying to attack the ship that they were on so he started to go forward to the attackers.

They had basically no aim at all but then Chara realised that they were some kind of black things. Then he realised that he was racist. He started using bone attacks.... after a while he found out that that sounded very wrong but he kept the name because he didn't care. He killed nine men in a minute. They weren't even attacking anymore. But he kept on attacking. Chara then used a "blaster"... he obliterated the ship with all of the crew members. He started laughing mainiacly

because he was losing his sanity. But he kept on going. He saw more ships and he destroyed them all. He was dying because he used too much power. But he kept on going because Ron helped him with his healing sandwich...

Chara started pucking. Then he got up and thanked Ron then punched him right in his diddly sandwich eating grinning face. He saw the land and he teleported there.

He saw a lot of food so he teleported the whole ship with him. He was happy that he gave everyone on the ship nausea.

Part-2

Zadrina was awake. She started screaming. Chara started running. He thought to himself " would what I'm writing count as copyright? " Then he just shruged. He was yellow men and he started to think that the writer wasn't sane. Then he saw blue and red men too so he thought that the writer was messing with him because the writer had to to everything like him. Chara killed them all. Ron found sandwich men and Chara started to teleport everyone to somewhere else because the writer was a... He remembered that he couldn't use swear words because this was supposed to be kid friendly.

He started crying. He destroyed that island and saw that it started regenerating so he assumed that he couldn't make his fears disappear that easily. Ada woke up and started to try and kill himself. Ron stopped him. Ada will remember that. The writer was thinking "WHY AM I STILL WRITING THIS. IN THIS GOD DARN ROTTING WORLD WE SO CALLED HUMANS LIVE ON" but he kept on writing. Then he started that he could make them pay. HE WILL MAKE THIS STORY...

Part-3

The ship got exploded by a God named God and Chara started attacking that God who was named God and the God who was named God almost nearly killed him. The God who was named God left. Ron was perfectly fine because reasons. Zadrina and Ada were very injured. Ron healed them. Chara made them go to war and make them fight but then Ron stopped him. He said "If ThEy gO To wAr tHeY WılL diE anD Lord DIO WilL maKe thEm SufFerRR" Chara was annoyed.

He teleported to Lord DIO and saw him fighting. He tried to attack him with bones but then Lord DIO saw him and MUDA MUDA MUDAd him.

Chara dodged everything. The battle took for 3 hours and the reason they stopped was Chara getting tired and Lord DIO seeing more people trying to fight him including Ron, Zadrina and Ada. Chara and Lord DIO both agreed that they should not see eachother every again and not to attack their comrades. Chara then started fighting against the others and then his comrades started to fight too. They were getting too exhausted to Chara teleported them to that weird island. Everyone was gone... They wondered why but Chara knew why. After 3 years of war Chara learned how to ORA and Ada learned how to use his abilities. Zadrina was basically a goddes of war so they just didn't go near her that much. And that's how the writer gets out of writing more god darn character attacks and such. Ron was gone. After a while Ron came back. He had blood all over him. Ada asked why and Chara hoped it was Ron's blood but it turns out that some person tried to attack him and Ron killed that person but then that person multiplied so he had to kill every single one. Chara was sad.

Part-4

Chara thought that the war got too boring so he basically killed the person who started the war and it's army with one attack. Then he saw Lord DIO and they started to fight for fun. Lord DIO died. Ron saw that and attacked Chara with all of his power and Chara was both surprised and horrified that Ron had that much power to much him to using almost all of his power. Ron died in pain and suffered a lot of... wounds.

After a while Ada saw what Chara had done and somehow everyone was there. Every god diddly darn person they have met. Including the God who was name God that destroyed their ship. Zadrina and Ada both attacked Chara at the same time and Chara used his "special attack" that he created at that moment in time. Ada got vaporised. Zadrina was going insane. She almost killed Chara but then they both attacked each other at the same time and they both died because I was too lazy to continue more. BUT I HAD TO FINISH THE STORY. Right before Chara died, he used a planet sized "blaster" and erase the planet so called "Earth" from existence.

The Story of A Victory

As everyday, I came back from my school. I rang the bell but there wasn't anyone so I unlocked the door and entered to the house. I made myself some snacks and ate them. Then, I rested and thought about some sport. Then games. Then just about a game, Fortnite, which all of us play.

I thought about some interesting builds and a streamer, Ninja. He was the best player for me, but when I saw another streamer, I changed my mind. While i was just thinking, I realised that I could play Fortnite on my computer. I sprinted to my room and and opened it. It took more than 5 minutes to open, and one more 5 minutes for Fortnite to open. Total, more than ten. When the game opened, I saw my friend, Efe, was playing on the same platform. I joined his group and we played duo (A game mode that you can play with a friend. You fight against 100 players, almost 50 duos(can be lower than 100) for a victory). When 64 players left, I found a good gun. I told my friend and he said "Nice". When I was reloading my weapon, someone shooted to Efe and knocked him down but he also got knocked down.

When I arrived, I found his friend shooting Efe to finish his job (When you got knocked down, someone should revive you in a minute or you die. The reviving time is 10 seconds). When I shooted him, he started building some weird builds. I also did the same but his build was better than me so he shooted me. I did not die, but I had low health point. I healed myself and killed him. When they both died, I revived my friend and we looted their stuff. He had low health point because he got knocked down. I gave him something to heal, and we went away. I checked the list, there were 34 players with us.

We continued looting some good guns. I found a good healing potion. I gave it to Efe, made him drink it, when we saw a fight in front of us. We made a plan. When 2 of four players died, we were going to attack them when they had low health point. Of course we won the fight. There were 16 players left. We felt happy because we had good loot and Efe broke his kill record, 5. I had 7 and it was not bad.

When 7 players left, we realised that there were 2 duos and a single guy apart from us. My friend made a plan and he acted like a noob. He took the single guy near me and I killed him. Those duos fought each other. There were 4 players left. We were a bit excited. The storm was getting closer so we pushed in. Efe saw one of them unprotected and he sniped him, but his friend revived him up. He could not get healed because I knocked down the other guy, but he revived his friend again. While they were healing, I killed one of them but finally, when he was reviving up his friend, Efe made a genius move and killed both of them.

We won the game. We were happy. The game gave us some prizes for winning the game. We received them and started to argue about playing another game. It took us 25 minutes for just one game. Then we decided to play another game. It was League of Legends (LoL). He didnt know how to play, he only heard the name of the game. I taught him a hero and we created a group. We started the game.

When we started, we understood that it was not the hero that he could play. But I said "Well, nothing changes when I change the hero!". I laughed and continued to play. He joined me in laughing, and we continued to play as we always do.

The training in Dragon Ball is not that insane. They just use weighted clothes which are;

Wrist bands: 20kgs

Shirt: 30kgs

A turtle shell: 30kgs (max)

Boots: 40kgs

A cape: 100kgs

A hat: 100kgs

be canon and that's why I'm including this one and it is the Legendary Super Saiyan… very original.

More Transformations

In Dragon Ball GT there is a form called Super Saiyan 4 and if you fuse with another Super Saiyan 4 you will become Super Saiyan 5 (but you can just achieve that

form too). In Dragon Ball Super There are 2 forms and 1 technique that I can count as a form which are

Super Saiyan God, Super Saiyan Blue and UI (Ultra Instinct) or you can master it and it will me MUI (Mastered Ultra Instinct and we are really creative aren't we)

Oh and did I forget to mention that there are mastered forms that I really dont want to include? Yes, I did… ;-;

Transformations

And there are transformations… YAAAY

So in Dragon Ball there is just one transformation which is the Great Ape which isn't great at all…

In Dragon Ball Z there are 4 transformations which are Kaioken, Super Saiyan 1, Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan 3 but actually there is a non-cannon transformation which will soon

Instruments

Instruments are used to make sounds. There are so many types of instruments. Some instrument types:

Pulsatile Instruments;

Percussion instruments include an important part of the oldest instruments in history. Even the most primitive instruments are

MARVEL FILMS;

Most of the characters are not so supernatural and have only a little element on fantasy in them. And the films are interesting and have the touch of comedy along with the necessary action and seriousness.

DC FILMS;

Many famous characters have a lot of elements of fantasy and only a few are normal human beings.

MARVEL and DC; Which one is the best?

I think Marvel Movies are always great!!!

According to a recent study by ZappiStore, Marvel movies are bigger box-office successes because audiences find them more emotionally engaging than DC films. Using the audience's facial expressions, the study found people react positively to DC trailers only when CGI elements and special effects are shown and have little reaction when the actual characters make onscreen appearances.

In terms of Marvel trailers, positive reactions were found through-out the screening, especially if humour was involved. In terms of specific trailers, when shown the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 trailer, there was a 78% emotional engagement from the audience. When shown the Justice League trailer, the engagement went down to 71% showing audiences reacted poorly to the dark and gritty nature of the DC universe.

Pop Music Evolution

Pop music was invented in 1920, and it was an originally used as a word to simply describe music that was POPULAR.

Popular music has been popular culture, but the meaning of the word "pop" is constantly changing. Popular music, rock and roll, rhythm and blues (R`n'B) as many subspecies (dance-pop, synthpop, heartland rock, root rock, etc.) is divided into two.

Music revolutions - in 1964, 1983 and 1991 - followed the birth of the disco.

The most famous singer was Elvis Presley in 1950s. Elvis Presley was one of the most popular musicians of all time.

The Beatles invented many of the now common conventions of pop music.

The Beatles have forever changed Popular Culture.

The Beatles were one of the most popular bands of all time.

70s did pop music came in the form of a pop-rock sound: this was the beginning of the Jackson 5, Elton John, and Queen.

Elton John was one of the biggest stars of the time.

Musicals, which add music by singers such as Smokey Robinson, Tony Bennett and Patsy Cline, go back in the 1990s with artists such as Madonna and Boyz II Men.

The artists that emerged in these years were revolutionary for pop - Michael Jackson's Thriller is still the best-selling album of all time. Jackson was the biggest pop star.

POP music will continue to produce new styles and new artists.

Still it is loved…

among the percussions of contemporary orchestras. Not only do they contribute to the rhythm, colour and dynamic power of music, they also contribute to the melodic and harmonic elements of music.

Wind Instruments;

Wind instruments are in the second instrument part of the orchestra in western music. The board is divided into two types: the winds and the copper winds. Besides, saxophones made of brass, silver, gold, nickel or side flutes made of various alloys are also available. In addition, the sound production is not taken into account in this classification.

Stringed Instruments;

Stringed instruments produce sound when they are struck by wires or vibrate when the spring is twisted into the wires. The loudness of the sound is caused by the resonance of the vibrating body cavity as a result of the vibrations of the wires.

SPACE

MATTER & ENERGY

It’s the part that you belong that consist of;

Nebulas, stars, billions of planets huge or small astroids comets, huge galaxies, black holes, void, gases, dust etc.

You can see Orion Nebula below. (buraya Orion nebula resmi gelecek.)

M&E

Energy is the thing that makes things we see around happen. There are diffrent types of energies. The one that we need to know is light. It has the ability to move faster than anything known.(Which is called as a light year.)And there is matter. To the basic explanation, it is everything that you can feel, see, taste, touch and hear. But hey it won’t be that boring as it goes on.

STARS

Yeah, not that fun right? Not until you learn that they are basically really big hydrogen bombs. They explode every second forming huge explosions that create light, heat and radiation. When it comes to stars, The first thing that you may notice is how big they are. Not even the biggest known planets can compare to an average star.

Stars have a huge weight. And they formed the most of the elements that are you aruond you now. The stars core, at the beginning of its life is made of a type of hydrogen. Then it turns into hellium, carbon, oxygen.

So, shortly stars are too hot that they make elements turn(or fuse) into other elements.

That’s enough for stars by now. I’ll put some photos.

BLACK HOLES

Some say they are just gates to the other side of space, some say it’s a highly gravitional centered area. They form by a supernova. We’ll get to supernovas. They are formed by enormous mass being gathered at one point. They are still super-scary and dark. But some of the black holes do not kill you once you enter the event horizon. Event horizon is the part that it starts.

BLACK HOLES 2

Event horizon is like the part on the whirpool that you nolonger escape. Even though if you are faster than light. At smaller black holes, you die at the point you entered it, making

you a spagetthi. At bigger black holes, howewer you can travel in the black hole for sometime until you reach the center. The center is singularity. It is the part that all the matter goes. Whery little is known about them.

SUPERNOVAS

When a big star dies it releases a big amount of energy. Creating an EPIC SPACE EXPLOSION.

They are also called supernovas.

It leads to a neutron star or a black hole.

NEBULAE

A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae (more than one nebula) come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova. Other nebulae are regions where new stars are beginning to form. For this reason, some nebulae are called "star nurseries."

GALAXIES

A galaxy is a huge collection of gas, dust and billions of stars and their solar systems. A galaxy is held together by gravity. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, also has a supermassive black hole in the middle.

BOÖTES VOID

BEHOLD it is the biggest void of all time. We may be going through it now on. But here’s “some” information about it that I got from a website.

When looking up at the sky at night, it's easy to get the impression that the stars go on forever in fairly uniform fashion. We know, of course, that this isn't the case. Stars coalesce into galaxies, and galaxies join together to form clusters. And as for the vast, empty regions of intergalactic space, they don't go on for very long — the next galaxy is just around the corner.

Except, that is, for one particular area of space known as the Boötes void, a massive expanse of empty space unlike any other observed in the Universe.

Discovered by astronomer Robert Kirshner and his team back in 1981, the Boötes void, sometimes called the Great Void, is a huge, spherical region of space that contains very few galaxies. It's approximately 700 million light years from Earth and located near the constellation Boötes, which is how it got its name. The researchers originally published their surprising discovery in their paper, "A million cubic megaparsec void in Boötes."

A VOIDY VOID

The supervoid measures 250 million light-years in diameter, representing approximately 0.27% of the diameter of the observable universe, which itself is a daunting 93 billion light-years across. Its volume is estimated at 236,000 Mcp3, making it the largest known void in the Universe.
