Conservatism in Accounting Part I: Explanations and Implications
Watts, Ross L., Accounting Horizons
SYNOPSIS: This paper is the first in a two-part series on conservatism in accounting. Part I examines alternative explanations for conservatism in accounting and their implications for accounting regulators. Part II summarizes the empirical evidence on conservatism, its consistency with alternative explanations, and opportunities for future research. The evidence is consistent with conservatism's existence and, in varying degrees, the various explanations.
Conservatism is defined as the differential verifiability required for recognition of profits versus losses. Its extreme form is the traditional conservatism adage: "anticipate no profit, but anticipate all losses." Despite criticism, conservatism has survived in accounting for many centuries and appears to have increased in the last 30 years.
The alternative explanations for conservatism are contracting, shareholder litigation, taxation, and accounting regulation. The evidence in Part II suggests the contracting and shareholder litigation explanations are most important. Evidence on the effects of taxation and regulation is weaker, but consistent with those explanations playing a role. Earnings management could produce some of the evidence on conservatism, but cannot be the prime explanation.
The explanations and evidence have important implications for accounting regulators. FASB attempts to ban conservatism in order to achieve "neutrality of information" without understanding the reasons conservatism existed and prospered for so long are likely to fail and produce unintended consequences. Successful elimination of conservatism will change managerial behavior and impose significant costs on investors and the economy in general. Similarly, researchers and regulators who propose the inclusion of capitalized unverifiable future cash flows in financial reports should consider the costs generated by their proposal's effect on managerial behavior.
This paper is Part I in a two-part series on conservatism in accounting. The objectives of this paper are to:
1. Discuss the explanations for conservatism; and
2. Draw implications for regulation and standard setting.
The objectives of Part II in the series are to:
1. Summarize the evidence on conservatism's existence;
2. Evaluate the evidence's ability to discriminate among conservatism explanations; and
3. Evaluate the evidence's ability to discriminate between conservatism and nonconservatism explanations.
The explanations discussion draws on existing literature. However, this paper develops a general contracting explanation for conservatism that encompasses the existing debt contract dividend constraint explanation (Watts 1993) and predicts that other contracts employed within the firm, such as managerial compensation contracts, will also generate conservatism. The paper also offers a new argument that, even without contracting considerations, an information perspective produces conservatism once the information costs of changed managerial behavior are introduced.
Conservatism Defined
Accounting conservatism is traditionally defined by the adage "anticipate no profit, but anticipate all losses" (Bliss 1924). Anticipating profits means recognizing profits before there is legal claim to the revenues generating them and that the revenues are verifiable. Conservatism does not imply that all revenue cash flows should be received before profits are recognized--credit sales are recognized--but rather that those cash flows should be verifiable. In the empirical literature the adage is interpreted as representing "the accountant's tendency to require a higher degree of verification to recognize good news as gains than to recognize bad news as losses" (Basu 1997, 7). Conservatism is the asymmetrical verification requirements for gains and losses. This interpretation allows for degrees of conservatism: the greater the difference in degree of verification required for gains versus losses, the greater the conservatism. …

Bieber Twitter troublemaker apologizes for meddling
A Michigan teenager who was forced to change his phone number and close down his Twitter.com account after Justin Bieber gave fans his contact details has apologized for meddling with the pop star's life.
Kevin Kristopik insists he never meant to upset the "Baby" singer after obtaining his telephone number from a friend and texting the pop sensation directly.
The stunned star decided to get his own back on the troublemaker by posting Kristopik's number on his Twitter.com page and urging his 4.5 million followers to get in touch.
The pop star wrote: "Everyone call me ... or text."
RELATED VIDEO: Cats hate Justin Bieber?
Bieber took the post down within minutes but the damage had been done and Kristopik received a phone bill-busting 30,000 text messages.
Speaking to MSNBC on Tuesday, Kristopik says, "Most of them (texts) were like, 'Oh my God, Justin, is that really you?' and others were like accusing me of hacking Justin Bieber's Twitter and posting my own number, which is ridiculous."
Kristopik has since canceled his Twitter.com page and changed his phone number.
Asked if he had a direct message for Bieber, the troubled teen added, "I'm sorry for meddling into your life but I also think he took it a little too far overboard by literally giving my number to 4.5 million people."
Kristopik reveals his parents were initially shocked by the online feud, but he admits they've been "pretty cool about it," adding, "They're having fun with it."

Hi Ya'll,
I currently own a Marin Hawk Hill that I got for a sweet deal($290 NEW including shipping from Sierra Trading Post). I've ridden it a few times, but it gets so hot down here(New Orleans) that I can't bring myself to take it out much. I've been looking at some other bikes online and have seen a single speed bike that I was interested in. Is a single speed like the Schwinn Stingray of my youth...meaning no gears, just pedal and the faster my legs move, the faster the bike goes? What is a fixed gear bike? I wouldn't mind having a decent Mtn bike with no gears or shifting. I live in New Orleans, like I said, and we don't have any hills or trails to really speak of. I'd rather have a bike that I can just cruise around the park, the neighborhood, occasionally the bike trail, which is about 20 miles away, etc. Would a single speed be good for me? I'll be honest, I'm a mtb newb for the most part and I don't really understand much about the shifting and gears on my bike anyway. I usually put it in a gear I'm comfortable with at a good pace, and leave it there the whole time.

Shane Gentry Race Night at the Historic Half Mile
By Reese Fant, GPS Staff Writer
When Greenville-Pickens Speedway promoter Anthony Anders decides to pitch a Benefit Race for a worthy cause, he pitches a terrific evening.
And when Shane Gentry gets an entire race thrown for him, he is just as terrific at accepting the honor.
All in all, the Shane Gentry Race at the historic half mile was an evening race fans won't soon forget.
Back in the early part of this season, Gentry was a regular racer at GPS, running his black 8 in the Pure/Street Stock division. But it wasn't anything new or unusual for Gentry.
He's been a race car driver for decades, and owns Charger championships. Years ago, he was so good at winning the big races, GPS Marketing Director at the time started calling him 'Big Show' because every time the track held a big race, there was Gentry standing in Victory Lane.
He's been Big Show ever since, and won races earlier this season. But Gentry noticed something happening a few months ago he knew wasn't usual.
Gentry, started noticing he was having some problems with his right side that he didn't think was right, so he went in for a checkup. That checkup led to another, and then tests were run. The results of these tests weren't something the Gentry family was hoping for.
Gentry was suffering a form of cancerous brain tumor that is treatable, but not curable. Gentry, never one to just sit around and wait on something, decided he needed to call in the big guns. He needed to add horsepower to his treatment, so he got in touch with both Emory University Hospital and Duke University Hospital, and was seeking a second opinion.
"I can just stay here and take the treatments, and doctors could patch me up, but I really think the doctors at Duke can fix me" Gentry said.
So when Anders heard, he decided to do something special.
He offered a percentage of every ticket to go to the Gentry family and collected of stock car memorabilia to be sold in a silent auction during the race.
And the very first race of the evening saw Gentry's car sitting on the front row, inside, to start the evening's show.
Gentry wasn't in it, he was sitting in a golf cart, watching, as his best friend, neighbor, and engine builder drove the car. No, there weren't three other drivers, all of these just happen to be Greg Dodgens. Who also knows a thing or two about how to get around GPS in winning form. Dodgens jumped out front when the green flag fell, and he just drove off and left the competition. In Victory Lane, Dodgens commented on what an honor it was to be able to drive his friend's racer in this combination.
Jason McGrew appeared several times to be pulling up to Dodgens, but was never able to get close enough to challenge for the victory. Spencer Darnell finished third, with Jimbo Mann fourth and Freddy Hale, Jr., finishing fifth.
Ashley Granata was sixth and Matthew Lockee was seventh. AJ Davis was eighth, with Ray Mullinax and Charlie Meinders rounded out the top 10th. Tommy Davis, Jr., was 11th.
Trey Gibson added another victory to his Late-Model Stock string by finishing ahead of Jeremy Burns. Gibson, already the youngest driver ever to win a Late-Model Stock race at GPS, notched another win. Gibson finished ahead of his aunt, Tasha Kummer and points leader, David Roberts, finished fourth . Kason Plott was fifth.
Ryan Walker took sixth, with Andrew Cordell was seventh. Emilee Riley was eighth, as Rodney Howard and Jamie Tate rounded out the top ten.
Jamie Tate, Brandon Fox and Jeremy Drummond rounded out the field.
There was an extra full slate of cars for the Renegade race, with Greg Darnell taking the win and Blake Gregory finishing second. Steve Guthrie was third and Bobby Emory took fifth. lake Galloway was sixth with Alex Brazeale seventh. Scotty Tyner, Shane Hill Larry Nabors rounded out the top ten.
Colt Smith was 11th, followed by Daniel Jameson, Parker Jameson, Wendell Smith and Brandon Segare in the top 15. Roger Ellison, Greg Manley, Chris Meinders, Brad Burns David Cepek and Troy Carnes completed the field.
Tim Sams worked his way back into Victory Lane in the Super Renegade race, with Andy Norris taking second. Danny Gilbert was third with James Johnson, Joe Satterfield, and Josh Sams completed the field.
In 4 Cylinders, Travis Shelton was the winner, with Michael Cross in second and Don Tavernia was third. Danny Esco was fourth and Chad Tavernia took fifth. Isaac Powell was seventh and Manuel Molleda, Travis Barbare, and Barry Gonsalves rounded out the top ten.
Derek Fowler, Michael Posey , Sandra Tavernia and Jack Hooper were the final four cars.
This Saturday night the historic half mile holds a regular Late-Model Stock program, with racing in all divisions before welcoming back the Southeastern Supertruck Series on August 8th.

Ryan Walker Takes First Victory at GPS
By Reese Fant
GPS Staff Writer
It was a show of practically total domination in the Late-Model Stock main event Saturday night at Greenville-Pickens Speedway.
Ryan Walker, driving the race car that Bob Root started the season racing, led from start to finish, and was never threatened, to capture his first ever LMS victory.
Walker and his race crew had everything planned just right, up until the moment he arrived in Victory Lane and GPS flag man Mark Turner asked him how it felt to capture his first win.
There was silence for a moment, before Walker said, simply, "I really don't know what to say," an answer the GPS spectators loved and one that endeared him to the entire track.
Then Walker pulled himself together after the emotional win, and added, "The car was a handful to drive. The last 25 laps, (Of the 50-lap event) I had to concentrate every second to hit all my marks and not mess up."
When Turner asked about the possibility of being run down and passed in the latter stages, "Walker said he never looked back at there any of the other cars were, but just kept driving his own race, Then he thanked Bob Root, saying 'I just can thank him enough. I want to thank everyone who worked on the car, who had anything to do with the car.
"This is the third straight race I've been inverted to start on the pole position," Walker said. "I just wanted to make sure I drove my race car and didn't let anything happen."
What Walker didn't know, what anyone couldn't know, was the cars that appeared to finish second and third, which are also the first and second cars in the ALMS points standings, were both disqualified. The second-place car was thrown out due to the suspension, and the third-place finisher had a problem with the fuel not passing.
Since every driver is allowed to not count two races, the points battle is actually closer than it appears, but since both the first and second place drivers in the points were penalized, and there are only five LMS races scheduled before Championship Night, in mid-September, unless the leader has another bad race, he has a substantial lead.
The disqualifications put Kyle Plott in second, with Jamie Tate third and Kres Vandyke fourth. Tasha Kummer, having her best season, ever, sits in third place in the points and was fifth.
Kason Plott was sixth and Rodney Howard took seventh. It was his first race in a new car. Andrew Cordell was eighth, with Dale Dove ninth and TJ Lollis finished tenth.
TJ Lollis, The son of veteran racer Tim Lollis, drove a good race for his first time out, showing the talent in the Lollis family doesn't all belong to the dad. Kyle Barnes was 11th, and Matt Lockee in 12th. Trey Gibson was credited with 13th and David Roberts finished 14th.
Midway through the evening's program, GPS promoter Anthony Anders made a special announcement that delighted the entire track.
Since the Wheels of Destruction and 4-Cylinder Enduro is the program for Greenville-Pickens on the 18th, Anders announced that on July 25th, on a regular show program, he is giving $2 of every admission to the fund for the Gentry family as they fight this battle against cancer.
Veteran race car driver Shane 'Big Show' Gentry has been diagnosed with grade 4* glioblastoma. He is starting chemo and radiation therapies and will be going to Duke University Hospital for additional diagnosis and treatment. This is a treatable form of cancer, but at this time there is no cure.
There was a celebration for the Gentry Friday night at their home in Easley, which had a terrific turnout.
"Let's call it the 'Shane Gentry Show' , Anders said.
Veteran racer Gentry earned the nickname, 'Big Show' back when it seemed he always won the races when special programs were being held.

Randy Porter Wins Doug Noe Memorial Race
When the dust settled, the fantastic fireworks display ended and things got dark and quiet at the historic half-mile Greenville-Pickens Speedway on Saturday night, the Family Reunion was over and former two-time track champion Randy Porter was the happiest trucker loading up and heading home.
The race, called the Doug Noe Memorial Race, had all of the trappings of a Family Reunion on a true American Holiday. And as usual at some Family Reunions, there were a few heated discussions among relatives.
While the racing in all six divisions seemed exciting, there was almost as much passing done in the Tech Shed, during Post-race inspections, as there was on the track.
Former two-time GPS track champion Randy Porter came out on top of the biggest discussion, after the Southeastern Super Truck Series main event.
The holiday race was named in honor of former GPS friend and race car driver Doug Noe, whose life was cut short by tragic illness, and one of his racers was on prominent display. Super Trucks from all over came to compete, but it turned out to be a family affair.
The former champion who jumped out and led the most laps, appeared dominant throughout, and took the checkered flag without much trouble, just couldn't make it through the tech shed for the post-race inspection. Rumor had it the car's fuel was a touch too powerful, causing the disqualification, but this is unofficial. The only official thing known is, his visitor was taken away and the win presented to another GPS former champion, Randy Porter.
Porter, who was competing in a Chevrolet truck, was vocal in Victory Lane about how much faster the apparent winner was, who was driving a Ford. And, second-place finisher Tim Lollis, who also competes in a Chevrolet, said he, too, was going to have to look into a Ford product due to the apparent horsepower advantage on the straightaways.
But in the end, due to the disqualification, it turned into a July 4th celebration for the local guys and Chevy. With Porter taking the win, and Lollis finishing second, third-place went to another local driver, Jamie Tate, and it wasn't until Lee Tissot was credited with fourth place that one of the regular traveling series cars finished.
Cole Glasson was fifth, with Tal Dawson sixth and Luke Sorrow seventh. Local racer Jamie Altop was eighth, with Ed Surrett and Dalton Slagle rounding out the top ten.
Ricky Bowers, Houston Sullivan, Danick Coomer, Kevin Leicht and Pete Porter made the top 15. Zach Franks was 16th, and Shawn McIntyrre was 17th. Former GPS track champion Kenneth Headen was credited with 18th.
The Family Reunion theme held through the Southeastern Super Stock series, part of the traveling Super Truck racing package.
Local racer Nick Thunder showed dominance in this event, working his way through the field to take thc checkered flag. He handily outran Steven Carver, with Jason Leatherwood taking third. Jerry Bryant was fourth and Sawyer Frady was fifth. Clint Watkins and Danny Gilbert completed the field.
In the Carolina Vintage division, Johnny O'Neil was the winner and Greenville's own Greg Porter took second.
Competing in his classic Camaro, Porter raced second most of the event, then came storming up at the end to try and get around O'Neil, but the checkered flag seemed to come out just one lap too soon for Porter to catch the victor.
Chuck Thorne was third, with Phil Terry and Hutch Webb rounding out the top five. Roger Sams was sixth, Joe Evans seventh, and Duffy Sums seventh and Howard Scruggs took eighth.
The most dominant racer in the Renegade division, going for his ninth win of the year, had problems in the Tech Shed, following the event, and the victory went to points leader Bobby Emory. Greg Darnell was second and Eddie Ray took third. Jackie Foster was fourth and Blake Gregory took fifth. Blake Galloway was sixth, with Larry Nabors, Daniel Jameson, Parker Jameson and Michael Thompson rounding out the top ten. Alexx Brezeale was eleventh, followed by Wendell Smith, Gregg Manley, Brandon Ellison, Jack Hall, Connie Cepek and Colt Smith.
The apparent winner of the Pure/Street Stock race refused a protest, and the victory went to Spencer Darnell. Fred Hale was second, and Ray Mullinax finished third. Ashley Granata took fourth and AJ Davis was fifth. Jason McGrew was sixth with Charlie Meinders seventh. Hank Hutto and Michael; Webster were eighth and ninth, respectively.
It was the second-place car, not the winner, that was disqualified in the Four Cylinder, Front Wheel Drive race, with Don Tavernia taking the hard-fought victory. Michael Cross was second, and Isaac Powell was third. Joshua Thomason took fourth and Chad Tavernia was fifth. Barry Gonsalves, Manuel Molleda, Sandy Tavernia and Tommy Davis Junior completed the field in the race.
Gibson Continues Winning Streak
Greenville-Pickens Speedway points leader David Roberts suffered two losses Saturday night at the historic half mile oval. He lost approximately 10 points to his still commanding points lead, but that was minor.
Roberts still maintains a healthy lead, 642 to 580 to the race winner, Trey Gibson.
His other loss was quite substantial. His bright blue Ford racer was completely destroyed in a first-lap accident. Roberts had started on the outside pole in the race, and when the cars, still bunched together, went diving into the third turn, the racer that had started second row inside got a good run and made it three-wide going into the turn. Roberts seemed to already be pulling to the front, but suddenly the cars bunched and Roberts spun wildly into the third-turn wall. When he hit, his car went completely airborne before settling onto the track.
Both ends of the car suffered major damage.
Roberts, though, was not only alert throughout the incident, he was thinking hard.
The accident occurred just after the green flag, and no car had completed a lap. Due to the caution, the race had to be completely restarted, and Roberts went rushing out onto the track and took over the driving duty in Dale Dove's racer. By doing this, Roberts managed to finish sixth, instead of last, and saved himself some valuable points towards his quest to become a two-time champion.
Gibson, the youngest driver ever to win a Late-Model Stock main event at Greenville-Pickens Speedway, went on to win, and in Victory Lane said that although he was able to get a good run on the leaders and make it three-wide on the front row going into that third turn, he did not touch a single automobile and was not involved in the accident. He went on to thank his sponsors, and especially thank his father and grandfather for supporting him in his racing.
Cody Haskins was second, and Andrew Cordell was third. Tasha Kummer had trailed Haskins in the latter stages and managed to pass to take over second place just before the end. The two cars came together in the last two turns, and Kummer spun. Haskins was second, and Cordell took third.
Kason Plott was fifth, with Robert taking sixth. Dylan Hall was seventh, and Ryan Walker was eighth.
Tommy Davis, Jr., took the victory in the 4-cylinder race, with points leader Don Tavernia taking second. Michael Cross was third, Joshua Thomason was fourth, and Chad Tavernia was fifth.
Issac Powell was sixth, and Casey Finley took seventh. Tommy Davis Sr. was eighth, Danny Esco ninth, and Sandra Tavernia was tenth. Barry Gonsalves, Manuel Molleda and Michael Webster completed the field.
Chris Harvell collected the victory in the Pure-Street Stock race, as Spencer Darnell was second. Jimbo Mann was third. Michael Webster was fourth and Freddy Hale fifth.
Hank Hutto was sixth, with AJ Davis, Ray Mullinax and Ashley Granata completing the field.
In the Super Renegade race, it was a short field and the Sams duo, father Tim and son Josh, made short work of it.
Tim collected the win, with Josh in second. James Johnson was third and Andy Norris took fourth.
Greg Darnell took the victory in the highly popular Renegade division main, as he put 14 other cars to rest. Brad Burns, who has won eight races in these ranks this season, took second, and Bobby Emory was third. Shane Hill was fourth and Jackie Foster took fifth.
Daniel Jameson was sixth, as Blake Galloway was seventh. Parker Jameson was eighth, and Manley Gregg and Jack Hall completed the top ten.
Connie Cepek was eleventh, with Steve Guthrie, Fred Hale, Matt Hale and Blake Gregory rounding out the division.

Joseph Beuys
Joseph Beuys (May 12, 1921 – January 23, 1986) was a German conceptual artist, who produced work in a number of forms including sculpture, performance art, video art and installations. He was inspired by the ideas of Rudolf Steiner and the French artist Yves Klein. Beuys was an important teacher of famous neo-expressionist German artists as Jörg Immendorff, Walter Dahn, Anselm Kiefer and Blinky Palermo. Beuys held a lot of lectures in the U.S. Beuys enlarged the area of art to the whole life of mankind; everybody is an artist. He introduced the notion of social sculpture.

Quotes of Joseph Beuys[edit]
- To be a teacher is my greatest work of art. The rest is the waste product, a demonstration. If you want to express yourself you must present something tangible. But after a while this has only the function of a historic document. Objects aren't very important any more. I want to get to the origin of matter, to the thought behind it.
- In: Willoughby Sharp, "An interview with Joseph Beuys," Artforum, November 1969; Cited in: Lucy R. Lippard. Six Years: The Dematerialization of the Art Object from 1966 to 1972. University of California Press, 1973, p. 121
- Art alone makes life possible – this is how radically I should like to formulate it. I would say that without art man is inconceivable in physiological terms.
- In: Willoughby Sharp, "An interview with Joseph Beuys," Artforum, November 1969; Cited in: Lucy R. Lippard. Six Years: The Dematerialization of the Art Object from 1966 to 1972. University of California Press, 1973, p. 121
- Creativity is not limited to people practising one of the traditional forms of art, and even in the case of artists, creativity is not confined to the exercise of their art. Each one of us has a creative potential, which is hidden by competitiveness and success-aggression. To recognize, explore and develop this potential is the task of the School. Creation – whether it be a painting, sculpture, symphony or novel – involves not merely talent, intuition, powers of imagination and application, but also the ability to shape material that could be expanded to other socially relevant spheres.
- Joseph Beuys and Heinrich Böll (1972), cited in: Caroline Tisdall, Joseph Beuys, exh.cat., Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York 1979. p. 278.
- It is a special kind of secret how these Asiatic elements (by the American Indians) came over the Bering Strait long ago. It's the same with the coyote. When I worked with the coyote (his quote refers to the performance by Beuys when he was locked up together with a coyote in a cage for a few days in René Block Gallery, New York City in 1974), I had the idea that it was not an indigenous animal. It came as a wolf with the Indians over the Bering Strait. And this Asiatic wolf, or step wolf, changed his whole biological configuration and behavior. Then it was my idea to import the coyote once more back to Europe, and you could see it (the coyote) change back to the European wolf or Siberian wolf. It is a transformed European wolf, the coyote, how it came to the character of a brush wolf.
- In: Interview with Alan Moore and Edit de Ak', 1974; as quoted in: Joseph Beuys, Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993, p. 213
- I am interested in the creativity of the criminal attitude because I recognize in it the existence of a special condition of crazy creativity. A creativity without morals fired only by the energy of freedom and the rejection of all codes and laws. For freedom rejects the dictated roles of the law and of the imposed order and for this reason is isolated.
- Quoted in Germano Celant, Beuys, tracce in Italia, Amelio, 1978
- My objects are to be seen as stimulants for the transformation of the idea of sculpture.. ..or of art in general. They should provoke thoughts about what sculpture can be and how the concept of sculpting can be extended to the invisible materials used by everyone.
- THINKING FORMS – how we mold our thoughts or
- SPOKEN FORMS – how we shape our thoughts into words or
- SOCIAL SCULPTURE – how we mold and shape the world in which we live:
- Sculpture as an evolutionary process; everyone an artist.
- That is why nature f my sculpture is not fixes and finished. Processes continue in most of them: chemical reactions, fermentations, color changes, delays, drying up. Everything is in a STATE of CHANGE.
- Beuys' quote from Theory of Social Sculpture, 1979, as cited in: Chris Thompson. Felt: Fluxus, Joseph Beuys, and the Dalai Lama. 2011. p. 88-89.
- QUESTION: A well-known saying of yours asserts that "Every man is an artist." If every man is an artist, then why have art academies and art professors at all?
- BEUYS: To be sure, every man is an artist in a general sense: one must be an artist for example, to create self-determination. But at a certain stage in his life every man becomes a specialist in a certain way; one studies chemistry, another sculpture or painting, a third becomes doctor, and so on. For this reason we understandably need special schools.
- Götz Adriani, Joseph Beuys, Winfried Konnertz (1979) Joseph Beuys, life and works. p. 255
- It is a kind of vehicle, you know. It's a kind of making, spreading out ideas, that is what I think. It spreads out the idea. You must care for information and I personally try to make information available not only in a written way.. ..I try also to work with images, with fantasy, with jokes, with humor. It accelerates the discussion of the problem of a new society.. ..so I work coming from the idea of art as the most important means to transform the society.
- In: 'I put me on this train', interview with Art Papier, 1979; as quoted in: Joseph Beuys, Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993, p. 44
I Am Searching For Field Character, 1973/74[edit]

- Only on condition of a radical widening of definitions will it be possible for art and activities related to art [to] provide evidence that art is now the only evolutionary-revolutionary power. Only art is capable of dismantling the repressive effects of a senile social system that continues to totter along the deathline: to dismantle in order to build 'A SOCIAL ORGANISM AS A WORK OF ART'
- p. 48
- This most modern art discipline - Social Sculpture / Social Architecture - will only reach fruition when every living person becomes a creator, a sculptor, or architect of the social organism.
- Only then would the insistence on participation of the action art of FLUXUS and Happening be fulfilled; only then would democracy be fully realized. Only a conception of art revolutionized to this degree can turn into a politically productive force, coursing through each person, and shaping history.
- EVERY HUMAN BEING IS AN ARTIST who -
- from his state of freedom -
- the position of freedom that he experiences at first-hand -
- learns to determine the other positions in the TOTAL ARTWORK OF THE FUTURE SOCIAL ORDER!
- I think art is the only political power, the only revolutionary power , the only evolutionary power, the only power to free humankind form all repression. I say not that art has already realized this, on the contrary, and because it has not, it has to be developed as a weapon, at first there are radical levels, then you can speak about special details.
- Quoted in: Robert C. Morgan (1978). The Role of Documentation in Conceptual Art: : An Aesthetic Inquiry. p. 176.
Joseph Beuys... Public Dialogue, 1974[edit]
"Joseph Beuys," in: Avalanche Newspaper, May 1974, p. 5-7
- I was invited to come here to speak about my idea of art, which is to enlarge the effectivity of art beyond the idea of art as coming out of art history — an art idea which contains the well-known disciplines like sculpture, architecture, painting, music, dancing, poetry and so on. I would like to declare why I feel that it's now necessary to establish a new kind of art, able to show the problems of the whole society, of every living being — and how this new discipline — which I call social sculpture — can realize the future of humankind. It could be a guarantee for the evolution of the earth as a planet, establish conditions for other planetarians too, and you can control it with your own thinking.
- p. 5; Lead paragraph of article
- Art is the only power to free humankind from all repression.
- p. 5
- Here my idea is to declare that art is the only possibility for evolution, the only possibility to change the situation in the world. But then you have to enlarge the idea of art to include the whole creativity. And if you do that, it follows logically that every living being is an artist – an artist in the sense that he can develop his own capacity. And therefore it's necessary at first that society cares about the educational system, that equality of opportunity for self-realization is guaranteed.
- p. 5
Interviews with Caroline Tisdall, 1974 and 1978[edit]
- The outward appearance of every object I make is the equivalent of some aspect of inner human life... My feelings then had this special kind of darkness – almost black like this mixture of rubber and tar. It is certainly an equivalent of the pathological state mentioned before, and expresses the need to create a space in the mind from which all disturbances were moved: an empty insulated space.
- As cited in: Joseph Beuys, Dia Art Foundation. Joseph Beuys, Dia Art Foundation, 1988. p. 23 ; Statement about the "Rubberized Box" by Joseph Beuys 1957
- My first concert - apart from Beethoven at School and Erik Satie at the opening of my exhibition in Kleve in 1960 - was at the gallery Parnass in Wuppertal in 1963. Dressed like a regular pianist in dark grey flannel, black tie and no hat, I played the piano all over – not just the keys – with many pairs of old shoes until it disintegrated. My intention was neither destructive nor nihilistic. "Heal like with like" – similia similibus curantur – in the homeopathic sense. The main intention was to indicate a new beginning.. ..or simply a revolutionary act. This was my first public Fluxus appearance.
- Quoted in: Joseph Beuys, Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993, p. 128; Comment on his first Fluxus performance in 1963 'Heal like with like'.

Interview with Louwrien Wijers, 22nd November 1979 - in Beuys' studio in Düsseldorf, Germany; as quoted in: Joseph Beuys, Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993.
- I don't know what they call mysticism, it is in truth perhaps the interest of the spirit; that the work expresses the spirit, and not the formal aspect. While in the United States a lot of art production runs along the line of formalist art; what one could call the post-modernism, a kind of formalist intention like Don Judd, Carl Andre, Robert Morris, and these.
- p. 243; Also cited in: Louwrien Wijers (1996). Writing as Sculpture: 1978 - 1987. p. 38
- People who say: 'Ah, this Beuys will go back to the middle ages, or to the stone dwellers, cliff dwellers.' No, there is a misunderstanding. I have nothing against the materialistic methodology of analytics, but I think we have to enlarge this thing, not to get caught in a very restricted one-sidedness in our way of looking towards life. Because the problems of life, soul, humankind's spirit, the problems of intuition, imagination, and inspiration, the problems of birth and death, the problems of survival in a bigger shape, and to bring in the image of the meaning of man.
- p. 249; Also cited in: Louwrien Wijers (1996). Writing as Sculpture: 1978 - 1987. p. 40
- I wished to go completely outside and to make a symbolic start for my enterprise of regenerating the life of human kind within the body of society and to prepare a positive future in this context... I can see such a use for the future as representing the really progressive character of the idea of understanding art when it is related to the life of humankind within the social body in the future.
- In; Studio International. Vol. 195, (9181), p. 46
- I believe that planting these oaks is necessary not only in biospheric terms, that is to say, in the context of matter and ecology, but in that it will raise ecological consciousness-raise it increasingly, in the course of the years to come, because we shall never stop planting.
- Joseph Beuys (1982), cited in: Jeffrey Kastner, Brian Wallis (1998), Land and environmental art. p. 164 : about his 7,000 Oaks (see image).
- I think the tree is an element of regeneration which in itself is a concept of time. The oak is especially so because it is a slowly growing tree with a kind of really solid heartwood. It has always been a form of sculpture, a symbol for this planet.
- Joseph Beuys (1982), cited in: Claudia Mesch (2013) Art and Politics: A Small History of Art for Social Change Since 1945. p. 160
- Let's finally try to talk about a system that transforms all the social organism into a work of art, in which the entire process of work is included, whether it's work by Goya or Kounellis or mine, as well as agriculture, the sciences, or education or technology, something in which the principle of production and consumption really takes on a form of quality. One must not only transform the creation of paintings or sculptures, but the entire social form. It's a gigantic program.
- Lucrezia De Domizio Durini, Joseph Beuys (1997) The felt hat: Joseph Beuys, a life told. p. 201
- This is why we believe that a well-ordered idea of ecology and professionalism can stem only from art – art in the sense of the sole, revolutionary force, capable of transforming the earth, humanity, the social order etc.. ..Art is, then, a genuinely human medium for revolutionary change in the sense of completing the transformation from a sick world to a healthy one. In my opinion only art is capable of doing it.

Interview with Kate Horsefield, 1980: Republished in: Joseph Beuys, Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993.
- I had the feeling that another kind of life -- perhaps in a transcendental area -- would give me a better possibility to influence, or to work, or to act within this contradiction. So, this was my general feeling: on the one side, this beautiful undamaged nature form which I took a lot and had a lot of possibilities for contemplation, meditation, research, collecting things, making a kind of system; and on the other side, this social debacle that I felt already as a coming dilemma.
- p. 62; Also cited in: Video Data Bank, School/Art Institute Chicago, (1981) Profile, Volume 1
- But I saw the relationship between people, I saw their thoughts, I saw their kind of expressionistic behavior in every difficult situation. I saw all the time the unclearness in the psychological condition of the people. You know, that was the time called the "Roaring Twenties" and I felt that this expressionistic behavior, this unformed quality of soul power and emotion of life... I saw it, that it would lead to a kind of catastrophe. That was my general feeling.

- He (the Dalai Lama) asked me for my participation and I rejected the plan to make a kind of sculpture there in this old way, to make in a kind of special place this special modern sculpture. I told him that my idea would be this time to plant seven thousand oaks in Kassel, seven thousand trees. And to mark every tree with a little stone, so that everybody after three, two, five or six hundred years can still see that in 1982 there was an activity. After the radical destruction of the forests here in Germany for all this technological nonsense, that there was an impulse that came in the same time, to plant seven thousand oaks. This is such a kind of activity during the Documenta [in Kassel] , that has to do with the 'Documenta', but is a real other thing in the conventional understanding of art.
- p. 185 - Beuys' statement on planting seven thousand oaks in Kassel, in 'Joseph Beuys and the Dalai Lama'
- I think he (= Andy Warhol) would be very interested in the moment that the Dalai Lama appears, being involved in such a kind of idea. Andy has always difficulties with this kind of political activities, because he works in another kind of world, but he is always.. ..Also when he was here [in Germany] last week, he is very interested to hear a lot of new information. He has a kind of observing sense in the back of his mind. So, he is always interested to follow the development, and there is really a kind of imaginative process going on, I think.

- The idea of creativity is for me the problem of the future. Since the creative power is not a simple thing. It has a rich structure. It is divided into a lot of different principles and represented by figures, and these figures you can also write down in a kind of symbolic mantra. It is important to work on every point of creativity and see how the human being stands in the energy that comes out from the surrounding world.

Interview with Achille Bonito Oliva, 1986; Republished in: Joseph Beuys, Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993.
- In discussing his work (the art of Marcel Duchamp, ed.) it is necessary to avoid overrating his silence. I hold him in a very high esteem, but I have to reject his silence. Duchamp was simply finished. He had run out of ideas; he was unable to come up with anything important.. ..I would say that even the bourgeois tendencies in Duchamp's work – i.e., a form of provocative, bohemian behavior intended to 'épater le bourgeois'- follow the same path. Duchamp started out from here and wanted to shock the bourgeoisie, and because of that he destroyed his creative powers.. ..The content of Duchamp's silence refers to the aim of leaving the subconscious passive, of developing it. This is the aspect of Duchamp, which is related to Surrealism. The surrealists asserted that they could live with their subconscious; they thought they were above reality, but instead they were beneath it. They thought they could fish in muddy waters.. ..but to my mind, the images which emerged have a repressive effect.
- pp. 169-170 - Beuys refers to the 'art silence of Marcel Duchamp', the period that Duchamp stopped creating art
Quotes about Joseph Beuys[edit]
- The milieu in which creativity can be developed is principally the field of culture, and Beuys starts his sociopolitical program in the area of culture, in order to develop from this special angle the concept of equality as well as of democracy and socialism as a genetic process. The intellectual life, which education must should be structured, stands most definitely at the beginning of this evolutionary process of development. Next to it is equality as the democratic principle of law, meaning concrete socialism and fraternity in relation to the economic area. Within these three areas there is no qualitative ranking system. The primary necessity in Beuys' concept of direct democracy is freedom, meaning that every man should be able to completely realize his liberty, for example, his right to a free and equal unfolding of his personality, as is firmly established as a fundamental law in the organization's statutes.

- Unlike his European peers from the late 1950's — w:Piero Manzoni, Arnian, or even Yves Klein — Beuys does not change the state of the object with the discourse itself. Quite to the contrary, he dilutes and dissolves the conceptual precision of Duchamp's readymade by reintegrating the object into the most traditional context of literary and referential representation: this object stands for that idea, and that idea is represented in this object.

- The Fluxus movement... developed its 'anti-art', anti-commercial aesthetics under the leadership of George Maciunas. Fluxus staged a series of festivals in Paris, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, London and New York, with avant-garde performances often spilling out into the street. Most of the experimental artists of the period, including Joseph Beuys, Yoko Ono and Nam June Paik, took part in Fluxus events. The movement, which still continues, played an important role in the opening up of definitions of what art can be.
- Anon. "Nam June Paik: Section 2: Fluxus, Performance, Participation", Tate Online, n.d.
- Duchamp is quoted by Beuys in a interview:
- Somebody in Germany [= Joseph Beuys, who frequently visited America to discuss and to do performances] has been talking about my 'silence', saying that it is overrated. What does that mean?.. ..he himself heard this 'rumor' from several American artists!
- Joseph Beuys continued in the interview: I am convinced that he [=Duchamp] knew very well what it meant. If he was unsure about it, he could have written me a letter).
- In: 'Interview with Achille Bonito Oliva', 1986; Republished in: 'Joseph Beuys', Carin Kuoni. Joseph Beuys in America: Energy Plan for the Western Man. New York, 1993
- I mean artists like Joseph Beuys, who is really a tough, strong artist. B E U Y S. He's been working in Germany for years. He doesn't bother with the burden of ideas. What he desires to do is fill your house with margarine. Let you live encased in fat, die encased in fat. He would take three hundred pounds of margarine and put it exactly where Pat Kelly is now, and then leave it there. That's sort of the tenor of his work.

Family members were mourning Wednesday the deaths of a mother and her two young daughters who were killed in a head-on collision near Santa Ysabel.
The Medical Examiner's Office identified them as Mary Helen Elizabeth Aguilar, 33, the driver of a 2003 Honda Odyssey, and daughters Jennifer, 9, and Camryn, 7, all of San Diego.
Also killed in the Tuesday crash was the driver of the other vehicle, Francisco Raul Higueros Perez, 33, who was single and lived in Santa Ana, the medical examiner said.
Perez was driving a 2010 Pontiac Vibe west on state Route 78 when for unknown reasons his car crossed into the eastbound lane about 3:15 p.m. and collided head-on with the Honda minivan, the medical examiner said.
The accident occurred about 2½ miles west of state Route 79.
Four other children were in the minivan, which crashed and flipped.
The Aguilar family stood vigil Wednesday at Rady Children's Hospital, where other children were being treated.
At least one, 6-year-old Audrey, was critically injured, the California Highway Patrol said.
The children's father, Gerardo Aguilar, told KFMB-TV Channel 8, that Audrey's spinal cord was severed, while her 13-year-old sister, Irene, suffered broken bones and other injuries.
Mary Aguilar's 67-year-old mother, who was in the front passenger seat of the minivan, was being treated at another hospital.
The family had planned to go to Borrego Springs that day to visit Aguilar's stepbrother, who had been in a bad crash just days earlier, the father told Channel 8.
There were no witnesses to the crash.
Both drivers were wearing seat belts, the medical examiner said, while the two girls who were killed were not restrained in the back seat. All four died at the scene.

I am a total creature of habit. I could eat Mexican five times a week. I attend the same yoga classes. And I could watch Along Came Polly on repeat. Most people are creatures of habit, as well, because change is hard! Your customers are no different.
MarketingSherpa estimates that re-engaging customers through email can result in up to a 42% increase in revenue. Not only are these customers low-hanging fruit in terms of increasing revenue, but they already want to buy from you: you just have to remind them.
Personality and Personal
According to a recent Forrester Report, 30% of e-commerce repeat customers come from email marketing. These emails succeed when they come across as personal and relevant. Use customers' names when addressing them through special fields. Also, update your audience on relevant products. Did they purchase a video game that has a new release? Highlight those items that will interest them. If you want them to spend time reading your email, you are going to have to spend some time brainstorming.
Stand Out
HubSpot states that you will lose up to 25% of your email list a year. This can result from customers unsubscribing, changing their emails or jobs, etc. So even though you are working with low-hanging fruit, you'll still need to step up your game to re-engage. Maybe you need a subject line that pertains to a specific sector of customers. Maybe the email offers a deal on a product they have bought before. State your offer and your urgency clearly.
Data: Collect, Clean, Repeat
Some of your emails are going to work and some aren't. According to an OpenMoves article, it is possible to re-engage 10-15% of customers with abandoned shopping carts. However, you need to know why your customers abandoned, what works, and know it quickly. Tight integration to your e-cmmerce system is key when corralling these finicky customers. It is against the law (and overall bad practice) to email people who unsubscribe. Don't do it. Keep your lists clean. Furthermore, this will help keep your success and failure rates accurate.
Use your data to further segment your customer base. You can segment by product, amount spent on the website, and other behaviors in direct response to your messaging. According to eMarketer via HubSpot, 39% of email marketers that practice list segmentation see better open rates; 28% see lower opt-out and unsubscribe rates; and 24% see increased sales leads, and greater revenue. It is important to remember that re-engaging a customer may be cheap, but it can be time intensive.
Calling It Quits
There is a time when all marketers will have to throw in the towel. Each buying cycle is entirely different. But be sure to know when you can move a customer to your "unengaged" list. It's not personal: it's business. These people want to buy from you. They want their life to be easy. You just need to hit them from the right angle. And above all remember the old adage, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." And then they will buy, buy again.

The .NET Compact Framework team made an exciting CTP available this week. The .NET Compact Framework v3.5 Power Toys September 2007 CTP release contains some old friends (ex: Remote Performance Monitor) and ads some great new ones (Service Model Metadata Tool, App Configuration Tool, etc). Here's what the download page has to say about the included tools:
Dan Horbatt and Andrew Arnott talk in detail about the new Service Model Metadata Tool here (Dan) and here (Andrew). I highly recommend downloading and using the power toys. And as always, please send us your feedback. Enjoy! -- DK Disclaimer(s): This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

These could be very valuable tools … if they worked. As of our experience – RPM's GC Heap Viewer works with the very basic applications only. Our attempts to see the heap for apps with more than 10 lines of code failed (RPM just disconnects along with the application shutdown). The same behavior was seen since the initial release of RPM (.NETCF v2.0).
As of CLR profiler - the situation is even worse: profiler shows "Exception from HRESULT: 0x89731904." after running practically any application.
We are looking forward to get these resolved ASAP.

My daughter has been really good about sleep since she was born. She naps well and is always quick to go to sleep when it's bedtime. Over the last week, she's been crying like crazy everytime she's put in her crib at night. She's fine for naps still, but night makes her scream and cry. She is also waking multiple times at night crying. I am wondering if anyone has any idea what could be going on. My only thought is that maybe her last nap of the day is going too late and she's just not tired at bedtime.
7 month with sudden sleep issues
Could be separation anxiety. GL
Lo was also going through that, he was fussy for naps and even tho he slept through the night since he was 3 months old he was starting to wake up crying. At night I just let him cry and now he will always fall back to sleep within 5-10 minutes. I understand if you don't like letting your lo cry but I found with ds that if I went in to comfort him he would wake up more and then stay up for an hour or more.

I had pretty much the exact thing happen with my son the past few weeks. He is 7months 3 weeks old.... I don't know about your LO but with mine it ended up that he is getting his first two bottom teeth! That's why the sudden upset during the night, not wanting to be put to sleep etc. He got pretty clingy and wouldn't want to go to bed either, then he keeps waking up at night every few hours crying....
So that's the first thing I thought of when I read your post. Hope you get it figured out! :-)
"Nothing someone says before the word 'but' really counts." - Benjen Stark
LO Rowan 04/10/12
So this is normal? My son suddenly went from sleeping all night to not sleeping at all. maybe 6 hours a night and no naps at all during the day - maybe 2 15 minutes pauses. I'm exhausted and don't know what to do - top two teeth came in last week. So frustrating...
Basically they cry while they sleep because they think about what happen that day and gets too excited do thru cry.... But they are sleeping when they do that. It happens to most of co sleeping and breast feeding babies. It won't stop til around 2-3 years old...well that's what they say....I already gave up on having long night sleep...
I just posted about this. My baby is still in our room (next to my bed in his pack and play so not technically cosleeping but he does come into bed with me in the AM around 8am) so it's not separation anxiety for us. We do breast feed. For us he started waking more often from 2 times a night to 5+ for what seemed like no reason, it lasted about 4 days and then the next morning I felt sharpness in his mouth.. a tooth had popped and I had no idea he was teething. He was then going back to only waking 2/3 times a night which is normal for him these days. Now we're back to every two hours. At first he refused to go back to sleep and cried and cried for literally two hours for two nights in a row. Now he'll go back to sleep quickly again but still waking a ton. I looked today and it seems like there is white under the gum next to the tooth that popped last week. Your babe may be teething. I have heard that some teeth don't affect them at all while others cause them a lot of pain.
Miscarriage in 2008,Mommy of 2yr old boy born 7/15/09,Easter baby due 4/4/12
yes...are you BFing? all of a sudden mine started having trouble w/ later afternoon nap and then screaming all night before bedtime and I couldn't put her down. I started supplementing and I had to work at her to eat but one night she guzzled 4oz and went to sleep no prob. turns out she was hungry! and was not getting enough from my BM late in the day my supply is weak but in late night feeds after midnight my supply is full and early in am. now I offer her bottle after 10 am after all breast feeds to make sure she is getting enough.

Attention City of Detroit retirees and employees: The deadline is very near for mailing the ballots on the citys plan to adjust its debt and move out of Chapter 9 bankruptcy.
Do not wait until July 11 to mail that ballot. It wont count. It is not good enough to have a postmark as of July 11. Mail the ballot so it arrives in California no later than 5 p.m. Eastern time on July 11.
A safer bet would be to get that ballot in the mail on or before Monday.
Retirees, who live in metro Detroit and across the country, started receiving their bankruptcy ballots and information packets in May.
It is not possible to just drop off those ballots at city hall or turn in paperwork at the bankruptcy court in Detroit. The ballots must be mailed to California. No faxed or e-mailed ballots are being accepted.
More than 32,000 retirees and active workers are voting on pension cuts in two classes. Class 10 represents police and fire, and Class 11 represents general retirees.
If emergency manager Kevyn Orrs plan is approved, general retirees would lose all future cost-of-living adjustments plus 4.5% of their monthly pension checks. About 9,900 general retirees and active workers also face a clawback of excessive interest from annuity savings funds.
Police and fire would not see any cuts to current pension checks, and their annual cost-of-living adjustment would decrease to about 1% from a little more than 2%.
Both Class 10 and Class 11 must approve the plan for it to pass. A large part the plan involves the so-called grand bargain in which wealthy foundations, the State of Michigan and the Detroit Institute of Arts have pledged the equivalent of $816 million to reduce pension cuts in exchange for spinning off the city-owned museum to a nonprofit trust.
The bankruptcy vote is unlike many other types of elections. As part of bankruptcy, two calculations come into play. First, a majority of the pensioners who cast ballots must approve the citys pension cut plan in order for the smaller pension cuts to take effect.
But it is not enough for a simple majority to vote yes in a bankruptcy. For the plan of adjustment to go through, the yes votes must represent at least two-thirds of the dollar amount of pension claims of those who cast ballots.
Both classes must vote in favor of the plan for the outside funding to be available. That is a key part of the deal: Both groups must approve the plan of adjustment.
If one class or both classes reject the plan, the outside funding for pensions will not be available. And the cuts would be deeper, according to the Orrs team.
So in Detroit, the votes cast by police and fire, who are covered by one pension plan, matter to the general city retirees, who are covered by another plan, too.
Many retirees will have two ballots. If retirees or surviving beneficiaries have both a pension claim and a claim on other post-employment benefits, or whats called an OPEB claim, theyd also receive a Class 12 ballot. Active employees would not receive a ballot as part of Class 12.
The city stresses that no one can avoid a modification to health care benefits by refusing to vote or cast their Class 12 ballot.
Under the plan of adjustment, the city will no longer sponsor and maintain retiree health care or death benefits programs for existing retirees or surviving beneficiaries and their dependents.
Some retirees facing clawbacks need to know some new information, too. An agreement was reached in late June that would enable a smaller group of retirees who are part of the General Retirement System to have the option of paying back excessive interest earned in pension annuity funds in a lump-sum payment, rather than through reduced paychecks for the rest of their lives. Letters are to be mailed describing the lump-sum option and how to take advantage of it.
It is also possible to contact the citys information hotline at 877-298-6236 regarding ballots.

Puris are perhaps one of the most well-known and versatile of indian foods. It can be served as a snack or a meal depending on the accompanying items. However, it is important to know the right way of making puris, so that they come out nice and fluffy and without too much oil. While the perfect puri can be bliss, flops can be quite overwhelming and prevent diners from having their fill. Why worry when you have this foolproof recipe to follow. Serve up those hot and crispy puris with a steaming side-dish or just curds and pickle; it'll be wonderful in any case!
