A woman with a black apron is
stirring tomatoes
into a pan of vegetables in Bursa, Turkey.
Visually impaired,
she is being helped by an assistant,
who is a spouse of a Turkish Rotary
member.
Elsewhere in the kitchen, other
cooks and Rotary spouses are preparing meatballs,
slicing and peeling
eggplants, and measuring out cookie dough.
At a table in an adjacent dining
area, a man is reading
a recipe from a Braille cookbook.
The cookbook, "Good Smells From
the Kitchen,"
has enabled many members of the Library of Turkey for the
Visually Disabled
to enter the kitchen with new confidence.
"For the first time I made
lentil meatballs," says Sϋheyla Karayalçin,
a book recipient.
"I had
never done it before. I let others taste it, it was nice.
I am very excited to
have a special recipe book for us
[people with visual impairments]."
The activity is part of a project by
Rotary members in western Turkey,
who have partnered with the library to
produce the country's first cookbook
for the visually impaired,
printed in Braille
and recorded on audio CD.
Several dozen copies of the book have rolled off the
library's presses
and have been recorded in the library's studio,
and given
free to library members.
Additional copies are printed as Rotary members
secure
funding and line up new sponsors.
Günes Ertaş says fellow Rotary club
members came up
with the idea after they had helped the library purchase
Braille machines and other equipment through Rotary grants.

One day consists of 86,400 seconds. This is
one of them
A sailor was caught AWOL as
he tried to sneak on board his ship at about 3 am
The chief petty officer
spied him and ordered the sailor to stop.
The officer ordered the sailor,
"Take this broom and sweep every link on this anchor chain
by morning or
it's the brig for you!"
The sailor picked up the broom
and started to
sweep the chain.
Just then, a tern landed on the broom handle.
The sailor yelled at the bird to leave, but it didn't.
The lad picked the tern
off the broom handle,
giving the bird a toss.
The bird left, only to return and light once
again on the broom handle.
The sailor went through the same routine all over
again,
with the same result.
He couldn't get any cleaning done because
he
could only sweep at the chain once or twice
before the silly bird came back.
When morning came, so did the chief petty
officer,
to check up on his wayward sailor.
"What on earth have you been doing all
night?
This chain is no cleaner than when you started!
What have you to say for
yourself, sailor?"
barked the chief.
"Honest, chief," came the reply,
"I tossed a tern all night and couldn't sweep a link!"
