mon+tues food

After a recent bout with gastroenteritis, i was more aware of the food i was putting into my body... basically because i had to only have a liquid diet (broth, pop-sick-les, apple juice, gatorade (it has electrolytes!) and then the BART diet (bananas, applesauce, rice, toast). I'll take this time to create a blog about the food and fitness I'm doing with my body so I can later abandon said blog. Or Not. We'll see how long this goes.

Monday: bfast: Banana. Rice & broth. lunch: 7-11 turkey&cheese sammich on 'cracked wheat'. 1/2 of a protein drink. a handful of Combos (a treat damnit!!!) dinner: 1/2 Kashi pizza, some prunes. Dinner was only an amazing 435+40=475 calories. I'm sure I ate a deficit.

Tuesday: bfast: 1/2 Kashi pizza, some prunes. lunch: smartstart cereal & water. can of soup (40 or 80 calories?) lunch#2: SBDiet PB cereal bar (140cal, 10g pro). workout=back+bicep+cardio(20mins) dinner: tuna (175cal) 1.5 HB Eggs 1oz low moisture part skim mozzarella cheese. applejuice+diet mt.dew (dessert bish!) - at the gym i weighed in at 196lbs with ipod (3.6oz)

I can see how planning out what you're going to eat helps prevent you from eating crap. Perhaps tomorrow I'll be up early enough to take some smart start cereal (ants ate my raisin bran, damnit) and HB eggs and microwavable meal to work.

edit: planning to eat also seems to save money... or at least, keeps you eating what you already bought rather than buying something with wallet money and letting things in the pantry expire (banana nut bread, Jiffy)

Assistant Directors (1895-1915)

The first assistant director was appointed in 1895/96 to assist Cecil Harcourt-Smith who was on a six-month secondment from the British Museum. The post was held by the John George Smith (b. 1869) who had been admitted to the School in 1891/92, while still an undergraduate at Magdalen College, Oxford, under Ernest Gardner. One of Smith's roles was to assist with the Library; he also accompanied Harcourt-Smith to look for sites on Melos.

The next assistant was George Chatterton Richards (1867-1951) who had been admitted to the BSA under Ernest Gardner and had assisted with the excavations at Megalopolis. He had studied at Balliol College, and while in Greece had held a fellowship at Hertford College. In 1891 he was appointed professor of Greek at the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire (1891-98). It was in this period that he was assistant to David G. Hogarth for a period of four months for the 1897/98 session to deliver 'lectures in the museums to students and (at Easter time) to visitors'. He also prepared the report on 'Archaeology in Greece'.

Hogarth's second assistant director was Robert Carr Bosanquet (1871-1935) for the year 1899/1900 (for which he received a stipend of £350). Like Richards, Bosanquet prepared the report on 'Archaeology in Greece'. With Hogarth excavating on Crete, Bosanquet took administrative control in Athens which prepared him for becoming the successor to Hogarth.

Marcus N. Tod (1878-1974) was Bosanquet's assistant for two sessions (1903/04, 1904/05), alongside a fellowship at Oriel College, Oxford; he had previously been Senior Student at the BSA. As Senior Student he had assisted with the reorganisation of the Library (1902/03), and one of his roles as assistant director was supervision of the library and hostel.

Henry Julius Wetenhall Tillyard (1881-1968) served as temporary librarian during 1904/05 as the Penrose Memorial Library opened. (Tod had returned to his fellowship in Oxford in early March 1905.) Tillyard had been working on boundary stones in Attica and had taken an active part in the Laconia project.

Frederick W. Hasluck (1878-1920) was appointed librarian for the BSA in 1905/06 (alongside a fellowship at King's College, Cambridge). Hasluck had earlier been admitted as student in 1901/02. He was then appointed assistant director and librarian from 1906/07 until 1915 (with a stipend of £150). For one year, 1910/11, he was on leave of absence and was replaced by Arthur M. Woodward (1883-1973). During Richard M. Dawkins' leave of absence (1911/12) Hasluck was acting director.

Türk Bayrağının Hikayesi ve Oluşumu...

Bayrak sözcüğünün aslı, "batrak"tır. Batıraktan yani batırmaktan gelir. Eski Türkler'de toprağa saplanan, "batırılan" mızrağın üzerine hanedanlığı temsil eden renklerde kumaşlar, ipler vb. asılırdı. Mızrağın ucuna da altın veya değerli madenlerden kurt başı gibi kağanlık alameti takılırdı. "Toprağa batırılan mızrak" anlamındaki bayrak sözcüğü, zamanla " dalgalanan milli simge" ye kaymıştır. Osmanlı Devleti'nden önceki Anadolu Türk devletlerinde kullanılan bayrak renk ve sembolleri hakkında yeterli bir bilgi yoktur.Türk Bayrağı'nı ilk olarak Anadolu Selçuklu hükümdarı Gıyaseddin Mes'üd tarafından Osman Bey'e gönderilen ak renkli sancak olarak görürüz.15. yüzyıldan sonra al bayrak, Yavuz Sultan Selim dönemindeki Çaldıran Savaşı'nda ise yeşil bayrak kullanılmaya başlanmıştır.Türk Bayrağı'na en yakın şekil ise III. Selim döneminde rastlanır.Bu bayrakta hilal ile birlikte sekiz köşeli yıldız kullanılmıştır. Yıldızın beş köşeli halinde kullanılması ise 1842 yılında Abdülmecit dönemine denk gelir.Saltanatın kaldırılması üzerine 29 Mayıs 1936 tarihinde çıkartılan 2994 sayili kanunla Türk Bayrağı'nın şekli ve ölçüleri kesin bir şekilde tesbit edilmiştir.28 Temmuz 1937 tarihli 27175 sayili Türk Bayrağı nizamnamesi kararnamesi ile de Türk Bayrağı'nın kullanılışı düzenlenmiştir.

Türkiye bayrağının sembolik anlamı için pekçok teori ileri sürülmüştür.

• Bir görüşe göre, Türk Bayrağındaki hilal "İslamiyeti"; yıldız ise "Türklüğü" temsil eder. Kırmızı renk ise toprağa karışan "kan"ı temsil etmektedir.
• Başka bir görüşe göre, Ay-yıldız Orta Asya'dan gelen "Türklüğü", kırmızı zemin ise "vatanı" temsil etmektedir.
• Başka bir görüşe göre; Osmanlı devleti bayrağının değiştirilmiş bir versiyonudur.
• Başka bir görüşe göre; yarım ay "yenilenme" yi, yıldız "Türklüğü" temsil etmektedir.
• Başka bir görüşe göre; yarım ay "Allah" ı, yıldız "İslam dininin peygamberini" temsil etmektedir.
• Başka bir görüşe göre yıldız "demokrasi" eşitlik ve özgürlüğü, hilal "İslam"ı simgeler.

• Başka bir görüşe göre savaşta ölen askerlerin kanına yansıyan ay ve yıldızın ışığının yansımasından oluşan görüntüyü temsil etmektedir.
• (Bilinen efsaneye göre, 1. Kosova Savaşı sonrasında; Türk askerlerin kanının bir çukurda toplanması sonucunda; Ay ve Yıldız'ın yan yana gelmesi ile oluştuğu söylenmektedir. Yapılan tüm varsayımlar arasında, 1. Kosova Savaşı'nın sebep olması en büyük imkanlardan biridir, lakin bu savaş tarihinin akşamında gökyüzünde Jüpiter ve Ay yan yana nadir anlarından birini yaşamıştır. Bu savaş sonunda ele geçirilen bir Sırp askeri, dönemin padişahı Murat Hüdavendigar'a Sırp savaş planlarını vereceği taahhütü ile yaklaşmış; hançeri ile Osmanlı İmparatorluğu galibiyeti ile sonuçlanan savaş sonrasında şehit edilmiştir. Yerine büyük oğlu Yıldırım Beyazıt geçmiştir.)
