Hi, I downloaded contents of Manisa Turkish website about 1 year ago (I think it was in July 2008). Maybe not all, but probably the major part of it. I´ve just uploaded it to RapidShare, here´s a link:

Unfortunately, it´s about 24 MB (there are some pdfs and mp3s included) so you will have to wait for a while (I have also a shorter version about 8MB, if someone is interested I can upload it too).

When you download it all you need to do is to unpack it somewhere, get into "turkishlanguage.co.uk" folder and inside of it open "index.html" file. Sadly, I guess I didn´t download some style-related file, because website looks quite different (layout is bit messed up, most of colors are gone) but fortunately it´s still readable.

Hope it´s helpful. If someone has any problems with downloading it then send me a private message with your email, when I have a time I can send it by email.

alameda, with my hand on my heart. there is something wrong with you mind. when i read your post i lacked words, really.

DD has already told evrything about you. besides all this info comes from your own posts.

For God´s sake im not obsessed with the information about you. if you lied about yourself then it is your problem. you behave as if you were someone mysterious and we all are very keen on learning that precious info.

no, thank you, keep your gender and din to yourself.

 alameda, I think I finally get you.  You do not identify yourself as a peer of any earthly human being let alone another American....(not such a bad thing for me). 

You don´t want to accept the fact that if you are living in the US, regardless of your ethnic background, you are part of the culture.  I can seen now why you are so quick to dislike other Americans. 

As for where I live....right now I live in Texas because that is where my career took me but I spent most of my life abroad and on the Northeast Coast of the US (NY and Boston). 

I also spent several months living the the Middle East with my father.....but none of this makes me an authority on culture or people. 

But what I find interesting about you is that you act like you are an authority on everything (including Texas).  So, go ahead and continue to put everyone down to make yourself feel more important.  If that is what you need to do to get thru the day, then more power to you. 

Thanks for your comments so far everyone.... if anyone else has anything to add then please do!

 ............but you alameda an exception of being yourself. you deny everything. you deny you are a female, you deny you are old, you deny you are a muslim etc etc. is it sort of a taqyia coded in your mind?

 Oh please!  Cynic was no victim, he was big enough to express his opinion, like the rest of us.  It is strange that people who you agree with are "provoked" but people you disagree with are considered "provocateurs".  Don´t you think that most people here are provoked into posting? 

In addition, generally, why do you consider that disagreements necessitate anomosity?   I may get really angry at one post by someone, but can agree with that same person on another thread!  You are so clannish Alameda, you make me laugh, there is nothing you like more than to apportion blame to people who criticise your posts - usually in the form of accusing them of forcing others to leave!  Azymuth is a great example!  I have read the posts to her and, frankly, if she was offended enough to leave because of some mild teasing, then she should not be on a discussion site.

 If you pardon my saying so, your posts are extremely provocative...  

(Thank you for the extremely pointless link to "matador" !!! )

This only goes to prove my point that objections are not about what is said, but WHO is saying it.  Both Alameda and Canli are the biggest objectors to "insults" and yet when the insults come from a different direction (maybe towards those who they object to) then they find it perfectly acceptable.

It works exactly the same way in the other direction too - with other mods finding posts acceptable if they are posted by "allies".

The interesting thing is that I am frequently called a hypocrite for one moment agreeing with a person and then the next, disagreeing - how DARE I suddenly agree with Canli on a post, or Libralady or Alameda?!!!   Perhaps that is because I respond to the POST not the person?  I am no angel, but you people sure do take the biscuit
