Saat kaç?

A-Abi saat kaç?
B-Su bul bana.
A-Abi ne yapıcan suyu ki?
B-İki top atıp saati söylücem sana.

Yakın bir gelecekte, yeni bir tasarım sayesinde böyle bir dialogla karşılaşmak olası.
Mekanizma şöyle çalışıyor:Suyun içerisine biri beyaz, biri kırmızı iki top atılıyor. Tabiki bunlar sadece renklerinden dolayı farklı değiller.Sahip oldukları mıknatıs özelliği sayesinde bir akrep ve yelkovan görevi görerek,saatin kaç olduğunu bize söylüyorlar.

Pil dediğin böyle olur!

Tam insanlardan soyutlanıp, farklı boyutlara yelken açmışken, bir anda kulaklığınızdan aniden ses gelmediğini farkedersiniz.Evet kaçınılmaz son olmuş ve piliniz bitmiştir malasef. Yanınızda yedek bir pil yoksa, bir anda gökyüzünden yeryüzüne iniş yapmış gibi olursunuz.
Şüphesiz pillerin en makbulü şarj edilebilir olanlarıdır. Ne yazık ki, oda herzaman mümkün olamaktadır.

Bunun çeşitli sebepleri vardır:
1- Unutkanlık
2- Elektrikten yoksun bir yerde olma (örn: Issız ada)
3- Dağınıklık (Şarj aletini bulamama durumu (en sık rastlanılan durumlardan biridir.)
4- Şarj aletinin diğer pillerle ateşli bir parti yapması
5- Şarj aletinin birine ödünç verilmesi
6- Artık pillerin iflas edip, benden bukadar benim gömülme vaktim geldi demesi

Ama sağolsunlar japon amcalar yine düşünmüşler,taşınmışlar ve sonunda sıvıyla (üre,su,bira vs. vs.) şarj edilebilen bir pil üretmeyi başarmışlar. Dışardasın ama pilin boşmu, biraz idrar bu işi çözüyor :D Hem de çişimiz boşa gitmiyor,bi işe yarıyor:)

Rondo Alla Turca

2009-05-31T12:39:00.028+03:00

Rondo Alla Turca also named as Turkish March was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. When Ottoman empire and Ottoman military band were very popular in Europe, Mozart was composing Piano Sonata No. 11 in A major, K 331.For the third part he was inspired by sounds of Ottoman military band and this well-known composition came out.
This composition is still very important for Turkey and it's often used for Turkey country presentation.
How did Ottoman Empire effect on European culture?
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart gave importance to Turkish people. During and after being surrounded Viyana by Ottoman,Europeans especially citiziens from Austro-Hungarian Empire had a closed relationship between Turkish people.Because Austro-Hungarian Empire was rescued from this surrounding, being afraid of this enemy vanished and Ottoman's life was started wondering.Ottoman's cloths became famous between men and women in Europe. Turkish coffee, of which Mozart was fond ,had a good place in this society.Also, percussion instruments and wind instruments used by Ottoman Military Band was included to European Military Bands.The sound associated with the mehterân also exercised an influence on European classical music, with composers such as Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Ludwig van Beethoven all writing compositions inspired by or designed to imitate the music of the mehters.

Influenza, which hell did you come out?

2009-04-28T19:42:00.012+03:00

Inevitably,I've caught flu.My mom,dad and my siblings have already caught flu and finally I couldn't resist flu viruses although I did whatever I could. Actually I think that I have caught flu because I missed something to do!!!!Yes yes.I used same vowel which was used by all my sick family members. :( Anyway, It's too late to remember it.All things are water under the bridges now.
I'm spending most of my time in my bed and my best friend helping me end my boredom is ofcourse my computer. Thanks to wikihow I've found something to recover flu and I want to share with you

How to Overcome Influenza:
Steps

1. Understand that the single best way to overcome the flu is to get the vaccine, preferably a few weeks before the season starts. The vaccine takes a good two weeks to fully kick in and leaves you susceptible to the flu during that two week period.
2. Remember that the first and most important way to fight off the flu is to get plenty of sleep. It sounds obvious, but getting a full 8 hours or more every night gives your body more time to fight. At night, when your body doesn't have to serve your needs, it serves its own much more effectively. If you find you're having trouble sleeping due to congestion, take a decongestant/antihistamine. Not only will it clear your sinuses, antihistamines also make you drowsy.
3. Keep in mind, if you are lucky enough to get a prescription antiviral medication, take it. Several over-the-counter antiviral medications are also available, but please use them as directed. Overdosing with them will not make them work faster! If you're on a prescription, always make sure to finish it, even if you don't feel sick anymore! If you don't completely destroy the infection, it will likely rise again, but this time it will be resistant to the medicine.
4. Take a vitamin C supplement. Vitamin C is the most important vitamin with regards to your immune system. It can be found in a variety of doses, but most people get plenty with one 500mg tablet once or twice per day. It is extremely difficult to overdose on Vitamin C as it is a water soluble vitamin, but be advised that what your body doesn't use, it discards, and it burns on the way out.
5. Drink plenty of fluids. Another obvious one, but fluids help your body do what it has to do. Water is the first best thing for keeping yourself hydrated, but if you grow tired of it, orange juice or sports drinks also work. (Orange juice will supplement your vitamin C intake and sports drinks can help restore your electrolytic balance.) Sodas are NOT fluids. The first ingredient may be carbonated water, but on the whole a soda acts as a diuretic, actually causing you to lose water. Also, green tea and even tea in general is a good alternative to soda pop.
6. Remember: fevers are your friends. Even though people react negatively to a fever, it is one of your body's natural defenses against illness. The fever helps to kill the invaders. Keep yourself warm though, as fevers tend to make us always feel colder then usual. You shouldn't ever break a fever UNLESS it reaches a point so high that it threatens the rest of your body. If your fever ever reaches 103 or more, it's time for action. Taking ibuprofen can help to reduce a fever, but if drastic measures are needed, soak in a tub of tepid water. (Cold water will likely put your body into shock.)
7. Blow your nose. Even though you may be tempted to keep yourself on decongestants and antihistamines all day, don't. The mucus in your nose is actually quite adept at trapping foreign viruses. Just don't sniff it back up! That only reintroduces the virus to your system.
8. Remember that if all goes well, the cold will be gone in a matter of a few days.

Johnny Got His Gun

2009-04-24T21:31:00.010+03:00

If you haven't watched this movie yet,I strongly recommend to watch it.
Maybe you remember "One" from Metallica.Its lyrics are about story of Johnny's tragedy.I would like to share the lyrics and the video:

I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel the scream
This terrible silence stops me

Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, wake me

Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, wake me

Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh god, help me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please god, help me

Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmines has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

Women

2009-04-23T23:00:00.004+03:00

This is an extract from url://http://www.robertbody.com/zforeign_sources/collections/nice_stories.html

"WOMEN have strengths that amaze men. They carry children, they carry
hardships, they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy.

They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry.

They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.

WOMEN wait by the phone for a "safe at home call" from a friend or
relative after a snowy drive home.

WOMEN have special qualities about them. They volunteer for good
causes.

They are pink ladies in hospitals, they bring food to shut ins.

They are childcare workers, executives, attorneys, stay-at-home moms,
biker babes and your neighbors. They wear suits, jeans, and they wear
uniforms.

They fight for what they believe in. They stand up for injustice.

They are in the front row at PTA meetings. They vote for the person
that will do the best job for family issues.

WOMEN walk and talk the extra mile to get their children in the right
schools and for getting their family the right health care.

They write to the editor, their congressmen and to the "powers that be" for things that make for a better life. They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.

WOMEN stick a love note in their husband's lunch box. They do without
new shoes so their children can have them. They go to the doctor with a
frightened friend.

They love unconditionally.

WOMEN are honest, loyal, and forgiving They are smart, knowing that knowledge is power; but they still know how to use their softer side to make a point.

WOMEN want to be the best for their family, their friends, and themselves.

They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy (or cry) when they hear about a birth or a new marriage.

Their hearts break when a friend dies. They have sorrow at the loss of
a family member, yet they are strong when they think there is no
strength left.

A WOMAN'S touch can cure any ailment. They know that a hug and a kiss
can heal a broken heart. She can make a romantic evening unforgettable.

WOMEN come in all sizes, in all colors and shapes. They live in homes,
apartments and cabins. They drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to
show how much they care about you. The heart of a woman
is what makes the world spin!

WOMEN do more than just give birth. They bring joy and hope. They give
compassion and ideals. They give moral support to their family and
friends.

And all they want back is a hug, a smile and for you to do the same to
people you come in contact with. Women have a lot to say and a lot to
give."

Does a talent come from our birth to us?

Alttan Isıtmalı Yolculuk

2009-04-14T15:53:00.021+03:00

Bu sabah speaking sınavım vardı.Sınav saati, normal ders saatinden daha geçti.Bende daha fazla uyumuş olmanın sevinciyle, yataktan kalktım.Herşeye rağmen, sıradan bir sabahtı.Hazırlanıp evden çıktım.Durağa vardım ve otobüs beklemeye başladım.Durakta daha önce otobüse binerken, simalarına aşina olduğum insanları gördüm.Otobüs geldi ve binip,herhangi bir yere oturdum.Otobüs ilerledikçe yaşlı yaşlı amcalarda binmeye başladı.İçime sinmedi kalktım yer verdim.Otobüste biraz çıkıntı olan yeri değerlendirip üzerine oturdum.Kanımca motorun üzerine oturmuştum,böylece bi anda alttan ısıtmalı bir koltuğa sahip oluverdim .Tabi görüş alanım da insan silüetlerinden, kot giymiş bacaklara ve onları tamamlayan ayakkabılara doğru bir kademe atladı.Artık beraber yolculuk ettiklerim insanların ayakkabılarıydı.Karşımda siyah bir converse oturuyordu.Onun yanındaki çekingen ayakkabı kendini göstermek istemiyordu.Kafamı biraz çevirince beyaz çizgileri olan mavi bir ayakkabıyı seçebildim, yanıbaşımdaydı.Otobüsün koridoru boyunca çeşit çeşit ayakkabılar yolculuk ediyordu benimle beraber.Uzaklardan mor bir converse bana selam verdi.Diğerlerinden farklı bir ışıltısı vardı.Hemen önünde iki beyaz ayakkabıyla karşılaştım.Bir süre sonra, otobüs bir durakta durdu ve tüm kabadayılığıyla, çok eski bir çift kahverengi bot otobüse teşrif edip, koridordakilerin arasına biraz beni ezerek karıştı.Onun tipini bindiğimden beri hiç sevmemiştim zaten.Bu arada alttan ısıtmalı koltuğum, su kaynatmama sebep olunca, artık daha fazla dayanamayıp,otobüsteki ayakkabılara son bir kez selam verip,insanların arasına tekrar karıştım.Alışma sürecini geçirmeme fazla gerek kalmadan, okula geldiğimizi farkettim.Ne yazık ki sıradan bir günde ki sıradışı yolculuğumu böylece tamamlamış olarak,otobüsten indim.

The Luck Coming From 1 kuruş

2009-04-10T13:43:00.015+03:00

Yesterday was such an interesting day of my all. Everything started first break in the school.I just wanted to go ladies room to wash my hands. However I got locked with two girls because door handle fell down the ground when the last girl wanted to close the door. I lost my hope to go out since nobody thought we were laoked in the ladies room.While I was thinking about this,fortunately the door was opened by a girl who had wanted to use toilet.

During the lessons in the school, I suffered from bad luck until a friend of mine gave 1 kuruş to me for good luck.She said that I should keep it and good luck would come to me :)
After the school, we decided decide hitchhiking to return Izmir quickly because in the evening we would have a meeting with our class mates and also, before this meeting I would meet my friend.After 15 minutes,A car stopped in front of us and we got in. There was two people in the car.when they asked what our departments are,they explained their said they are civil engineers.After that,they asked if it was ok to leave in Narlıdere.We said ok.(because we thought that we could use bus to go Alsancak(the meeting place).)However, they liked us and they explained why we needed to leave the car(driver forgot to take his driver licence)and also they added if we could wait his apatment blog for a while,we could continue our journey with them.We said ok again :) And he took his licence.
After a while,Driver wanted to eat Ekmek Kadayıfı:D and he wanted to treat us also.And he parked the car and we ate ekmek kadayıfı and we continued our journey until we left in Çankaya.

In the evening, I managed to meet both my friend and my class mates.I saw a phonix cloud,I watched Izmir near the harbour,I ate and I talked a lot but most importantly,I drunk white chocolate mocha which tastes wonderful.These made me happy.It is stange but I think 1 kuruş achieved to change my bad luck.I'll keep it for a while:)

Yaşasın banyoda yine tüp bitti !!!

2009-03-29T17:05:00.002+03:00

Eminim benim gibi sizde çok şanslısınızdır ve hep sizin banyoya girdiğiniz, vücudunuzu ıslattığınız veya köpürtmeye başladığınız sırada çat diye bir
anda tüp biter ve o canım sıcak su bir anda çin işkencesi olan buz gibi bir suya dönüşür.
Ama üzülmeyin,benim gibi arkadaşlar için düşündüm taşındım tüp bitmesinin aslında okadarda kötü birşey olmadığını göstermeye karar verdim:D
Öncelikle soğuk su bazı bayanlardaki malum şikayet olan selülitlere birebirdir. Normalde asla uww çok soğuk,ya boşverdim, ben soğuk suyla duş muş yapmam,zaten selülitlerimi seviyorum diyen biri için, tüp bitmesi aslında bir mucizedir.Böylece tüpün bitmesiyle ortaya çıkan soğuk suyla, canım selülitlere son verme ihtimali oldukça yüksektir. Diğer can alıcı güzel durumda, soğuk suyun verdiği zindeliktir. Özellikle sınav zamanlarında,aşırı stok yapılan beyinler, vücudu yavaş yavaş mayıştırıp, dinlenme girişimlere başlamışken, alınmış bir banyo yapma fikri esnasında biten tüp, bir anda aboow dedirtip, beyne kendine gel ,ben bu sınavdan
geçerimi kanıtlayacaktır.O yüzden biten tüple gelen soğuk su, bu gibi durumlar için çok faydalıdır.Bu durumun bir başka güzel yanıda, unutkan arkadaşların çok işine yarar. Çünkü, tüpün bitmesiyle "tüpü kapadım mı?" stresinin önüne geçilmiş olunur.Tüp açık bile olsa çoktan bittiğinden, insan sağlığına zararlı bir etkisi olmaz.
Görüldüğü gibi, daha pek çok güzel olumlu yanını daha bulmak oldukça olasıdır.O zaman hep beraber bu sloganı tekrarlayalım "Yaşasın tüp bitti" :)

Prof. Dr. Türkel Minibaş'ın anısına...

Kendisiyle büyük bir şans eseri, bir konferansta tanışma şansına erişmiştim, ve gerçekten o gün beni büyülemeyi başarmıştı.Kendisinden önce çıkan pek çok konuşmacının aksine, öyle emin öyle inanarak konuşuyordu ki resmen büyülenmiştim. Konferans sonrası verilen kokteyl de konuşma fırsatı yakaladığımda o kadar heyecanlanmıştım ki. Daha üniversite ikinci sınıftaydım ve ne söyleyeceğim konusunda hiçbir fikrim yoktu. Ama sayın hocam o gün beni o etkileyici konuşmasının hemen arkasından, yine fethetmeyi başarmış işte, o harika kişiliğiyle. Ne kadar alçak gönüllü bir insandı.Büyük bir sabır ve anlayışla anlattıklarımı dinlerken bir yandanda beni destekliyordu ışıl ışıl gözleriyle.O kadar mutlu olmuştum ki,ilk kez mesleğimin önemini birine anlatmıyordum,biri benim mesleğime dört elle sarılmam gerektiğini söylüyordu.O konuşmadan sonra mümkünmüydü aksini düşünmek.
Kendisiyle yaptığımız konuşmanın ardından tekrar görüşme fırsatım ne yazık ki olmadı ve ne yazık ki sayın hocamı geçtiğimiz şubat ayında kaybettik. Ama o benim kalbimde herzaman tek olmaya devam edecek.

Northern Lights find me and enligthen my way...

2009-03-28T23:25:00.004+02:00

When my brother visited my room as a tradition :)(we live in the same house).He wanted to share his e-books and magazines.Anyway while we were observing photo shop magazines,I saw a wonderful photo taken in Alaska.I could see glamorous auroras in the photo.And I decided to share this natural beauty.

General information about auroras from wikipedia:
Auroras, sometimes called the northern and southern (polar) lights or aurorae (singular: aurora), are natural light displays in the sky, usually observed at night, particularly in the polar regions. They typically occur in the ionosphere. They are also referred to as polar auroras. In northern latitudes, the effect is known as the aurora borealis, named after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for north wind, Boreas by Pierre Gassendi in 1621. The aurora borealis is also called the northern polar lights, as it is only visible in the sky from the Northern Hemisphere, the chance of visibility increasing with proximity to the North Magnetic Pole, which is currently in the arctic islands of northern Canada. Aurorae seen near the magnetic pole may be high overhead, but from further away, they illuminate the northern horizon as a greenish glow or sometimes a faint red, as if the sun was rising from an unusual direction. The aurora borealis most often occurs from September to October and from March to April. The northern lights have had a number of names throughout history. The Cree people call this phenomenon the "Dance of the Spirits." Aurorae can be spotted throughout the world. It is most visible closer to the poles due to the longer periods of darkness and the magnetic field.

Its southern counterpart, the aurora australis or the southern polar lights, has similar properties, but is only visible from high southern latitudes in Antarctica, South America, or Australasia. Australis is the Latin word for "of the South."

Happiness

2009-01-10T10:27:00.009+02:00

Today I recognize something which is very important for me.Before the explanation,I want to tell how I came in this situation.These days I feel really depressed. I don't want to do anything.On the one hand,I need to study, I need to study because I need to pass some exams which are very important for my career.On the other hand, I can't do anything.I know it looks really simple but it's not.Because I can't control myself.My body has taken the control whereas my brain has hibernated.I have been thinking about that and I think that these days my life needs chocolate and my life hasn't one.
However today, I have spoken with my friend and He said that "Life is just a choice" If you want to be happy,be happy!!! but if you don't want to be happy or you think that you don't deserve it,it'll be your choice too.He's right. Everything which we did is our choice, that's why if we want to be happy,we can choice it.
And Let's talk about the first sentence.Today I recognize that I don't want to live for finding happiness, I want to live because I'm happy.I want to live with my happiness.I don't want to search a happiness anywhere.I live my life and then I'm sure it'll come into my life.I think it's a big deal.

The Berlin Wall

2009-01-02T19:21:00.023+02:00

After World War Two, Germany collapsed. Citizens became poor and homeless. At that time, Germany was divided four parts (zones). One part was taken by Soviet Union and Other parts were shared by USA,UK and France. After a while, USA,UK and France's zones became West Germany but Soviet Union didn't join them so, Germany had two separated parts which called West Germany&East Germany.
West Germany was governed with capitalism. On the other hand, East Germany was influenced on communism. That's why life sytles, economic and politic situations were effected differently in these zones.

West Germany imitated USA's life style. However, East Germany imitated Soviet Union's life style. Life in east part was more difficult and challenging than life in west part. There were some strict rules and also they had less opportunities for having something which is brand in the world. That's why, A lot of East Germany citizens started to move to West Germany. However, after a while this situation caused a big problem because East part had lost its citizens so,Both West Germany minister and East Germany minister talked and decided to built the Berlin Wall.
In this period, people had to over come a lot of bad situations. Because families are seperated and East part citizens weren't allowed to go another country or west part. They had to live just East part. Because of this situation, people used some techniques to pass the wall. Balloons, tunnels or some extra ordinary designs helped them. Unfortunately, a lot of people were killed, while they were trying to pass the wall.

In 1989 East minister gave a permission his citizens to go to soviet union's countries. Because of this permission hundreds or thousands East citizens went to another soviet union countries and thanked to USA and other ambassadors. After this situation It was showed that there was no need the wall anymore. So, East Germany minister gave a speech again and decided to remove the Berlin wall in november 9th,1989.

After a while East Germany collapsed too and Germany became just one part again.

TETRIS

2008-12-22T19:07:00.008+02:00

I think that tetris is the best game ever!!!
I know that this is huge word,but come on,you know that it's true.:) I remember that I played this game in my childhood, Many times, my brothers and I compared our best scores:)I think it's not just for us, but also was for everyone. I remember ATERI which had been the best thing in the house for nineties before The COMMODORE entered our house.Anyway these machines are my later topics, I just want to mention that we played it with these supersonic machines,a lot and a lot:)Futher more, we still play this game when we feel just bored.That's why I wrote a link which includes further information and some download links, I hope you'll like that and understand whether it is legendary.

Enjoy the game ;)

Fibonacci number and Golden ratio

2008-12-09T13:24:00.026+02:00

These days, I am really fond of this sequence. Because of this, I would like to explain these magical numbers.
Before years ago,in the middle age, Leonardo Fibonacci who was a great mathematician found this sequence while he was trying to solve a maths problem about rabbits.
This problem was that:
"A certain man put a pair of rabbits in a place surrounded on all sides by a wall. How many pairs of rabbits can be produced from that pair in a year if it is supposed that every month each pair begets a new pair which from the second month on becomes productive? "
And then he solve this problem in this way:

This problem states several important factors:
1.rabbits take 1 month to grow up
2. after they have matured (for 1 month) it takes a pair of rabbits 1 more month to produce another pair of newly born rabbits.
3. we assume that rabbits never die
4.we assume that whenever a new pair of rabbits is produced, it is always a male and a female
5. we assume that these rabbits live in ideal conditions
6. the problem begins with just 1 pair of newly born rabbits (1 male, 1 female) Given all this information, how many pairs of rabbits will there be in 1 year (i.e. 12 months)?

The diagram below shows the number of rabbits which will result after 4 months:

Number of pairs : Explanation

1 Pair : we start with 1 pair of newly born rabbits

1 Pair : our rabbits take 1 month to mature

2 Pair : At the end of 2nd month, our rabbits produce 1 newly born pair, so that now we have 2 pairs of rabbits.

3 Pair : At the end of 3rd month, we have 3 pairs of rabbits (our original pair + 2 pairs of babies)

5 Pair : At the end of 4th month, 1 pair of babies of the original rabbits produce a newly born pair, while the other pair of babies mature, and our original rabbits produce another new pair. This gives us 5 pairs of rabbits.

And he found this sequence of numbers."0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,..."
1+1=2
8+5=13
89+55=144...
Well the important question is that: what is the common thing between gold ratio and Fibonacci number?
It's interesting but If we divide a number from this sequence and a number which is before the number, we find ϕ((phi)= 1.61803399... )which also called Golden Ratio.
For example: 377/233=1,6180...

Why is the golden ratio is so important?
Well, Firstly, We don't know who found this number but Interesting thing is that it's used since B.C. 365 and, a thing which has golden ratio looks beautiful,such as the Mona Lisa Portrait or a pyramid. Also we can this in nature too.
Human body:
The Golden Section, also known as Phi, is manifested in the structure of the human body. If the length of the hand has the value of 1, for instance, then the combined length of hand + forearm has the approximate value of Phi. Similarly the proportion of upper arm to hand + forearm is in the same ratio of 1: Phi.

Plants:
A plant illustrates that each successive level of branches is often based on a progression through the Fibonacci series.

DNA:
The DNA molecule, the program for all life, is based on the golden section. It measures 34 angstroms long by 21 angstroms wide for each full cycle of its double helix spiral.34 and 21, of course, are numbers in the Fibonacci series and their ratio, 1.6190476 closely approximates phi, 1.6180339.

We can give a lot of examples about Golden Ratio but Finally I would like to talk about an interesting thing about this ratio :)

If we create a rectangle used with golden ratio and If we want to have small rectangles from the big one, we'll have small golden rectangles :)
1.First:How can we create golden rectangle?
1.Draw a square

2.Extend two parallel sides

3.Draw a line from the midpoint of one side of the square to the opposite corner

4.Using the line you just drew as a radius, draw an arc between the twoparallel lines.

5.Draw a perpendicular line from between the parallel lines from the intersection of the arc on the bottom line

6.We now have a golden rectangle

7.Dividing
Any rectangle is a golden rectangle:)
