Do Animals have Rights?
Categories: Morality
Do Animals have Rights?
Three weeks ago, I made a case for the natural rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. What this means is that it is morally right for us all to 1) respect other's choices in what to do in their life 2) treat others as you would want to be treated, which presumably is to not cause suffering and instead to try to make happiness available to others 3) respect the lives of others, which means whether another lives or dies is their own choice and it is morally wrong to think you know better than someone else whether to end their life.
This does leave some unresolved questions. For one thing, it is clear that it is impossible to act this way all of the time because the right to freedom often conflicts with the right to happiness in many situations. So which right is more important? I will address this in a future posting. Today I want to begin to address another important question: what kinds of individuals do these rights apply to? Do they apply only to humans? Do animals also have the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? If so what kinds of animals? Do microbes also have rights? Do nonliving things have rights? You see, we have to draw the line somewhere and this line should be drawn from reasoned principles rather than from immediate appearances.
There is a long history within human ethics of only applying these rights to other humans. This humanist ethical theory is actually a significant step forward from those employed long ago (centuries ago or decades ago or maybe even now in some places in the world) where not all people have rights. It was often the case that most people didn't have rights. We have come a long way to the current day where in the developed world where human rights are near universal. This obviously isn't the case everywhere in the world and this obviously doesn't mean that the more developed parts of the world are free from injustice. Not at all. But I think it is important to recognize the progress that has been made for human rights.
Now, some will recognize this but then argue that there is much more that needs to be done to extend rights to animals. Throughout the world, even in the most advanced societies, animals are bred, owned, raised, and killed for food with little or no regard to their well being. They have no rights at all. They often seem to live in constant suffering. Is this morally wrong? I will say that there is a clear moral wrong in that if we are eating this food, if these animals were raised in squalor for no reason other than to maximize profit, then this is morally wrong. If the squalid conditions of livestock contributes to unhealthy food, then this is morally wrong. If anyone is harming an animal for no good reason, then this is morally wrong. This behavior could lead one to harm humans after all.
Few will argue with what I have said here, but for animal rights activists, this misses the main point. They will not disagree that these acts of animal cruelty or neglect are morally wrong for the reasons that I have stated, but they will say that the gravest moral wrong is what is happening to the animals, not the effect that this has on humans. They will say that animals are ends in themselves. They point to the fact that animals appear to experience pain in a way similar to our own experiences and argue that this means that we should treat them as we wish to be treated. They say it is morally right to respect their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
I find flaw in this argument because it is too simplistic. If you look at my reasons for natural rights, it all begins with experience, which is a nonphysical concept. I know that I have a physical body, but I also know that my experience of positive feelings and negative feelings and my experience of seeing and hearing and making choices is beyond my physical body. There are physical processes that go on within the body that cause me to experience things, but these processes are not the same thing as my experience. So when my body is cut and my nerves react accordingly, this alone is not the same thing as my experience. My experience of pain is caused by this, but it is altogether nonphysical. It follows from this that it is possible for some bodies out there to not have the corresponding experience of pain when they are hurt. They appear to experience pain, but this is only an appearance.
Take for example a computer program of a cow. I can program this to appear to be in pain, but it is obvious that there is no actual experience of pain that corresponds to this. And if I were to take a hammer to a computer, it makes a sound when it is smashed just as a live cow makes a sound when it is cut or hit, but is there an experience of pain coming from either the computer or the cow? It is quite reasonable to assume that all humans have this experience since I am a soul connected to a human and thus I will conclude that all humans have souls. The question is though, do animals have souls? Do computers have souls?
I will say that a being has a soul if it has certain built-in functional capabilities that allow for body-soul interaction. One important quality is nerve endings that will serve as a way of communicating positive or negative valence to the soul. Both humans and animals have this. A computer could be build that has this as well. Another thing that a body needs is the ability to identify similar beings in order to extend the natural rights to them. Again, humans have this, many animals do, and robots could be built to have this quality as well. Finally, in order for body-soul interaction to truly work such that all beings can know how to extent natural rights to each other, they must all be able to understand future possibilities and also be able to to communicate complex possible future states to other similar beings.
I'm sorry, but without this a being cannot act morally and therefore it is unreasonable to extend morality to these beings. There quite simply is no soul there. There is no experience of pain or happiness or anything else, regardless of appearances. Advanced linguistic research has shown that only humans have the ability to communicate possible future states of affairs in an open ended way. No animals can do this. Therefore I conclude that only humans have souls. I do not see a reason to extend natural rights to animals. Humans have the natural rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but no animals have these rights.

Objective of the Action
The purpose of this Action is the establishment of a Network for Tourism Promotion and Development Topics. The goals of the Action include the creation of a suitable Support Infrastructure for the Network Members as well as Project promotion and publicity.
The Partner Network goals include:
• Formation of a tourism product identity for the Area of Intervention.
• Design and guidance of the stakeholders towards the direction of creating an integrated touristic product.
• Lengthening of the touristic period.
• Cultivating of touristic consciousness within the local society and complete activation of the tourism stakeholders.
The term business "networks" refers to partnerships between at least three enterprises, aiming to implement complex activities which none of them would be able to implement by itself, lacking the necessary technical expertise or resources (capital, time, available human resources) required.
Companies participating in company networks enter joint contracts in order to implement predefined actions with specific deadlines from the very beginning. These company networks embed various characteristics and can appear in the form of subcontracting, strategic alliances and technical know-how transfer.
A physical network is "born" through the initiative of a company which takes on a –commonly accepted- leading role. A successful network can evolve into a social chapter and into a cluster, progressively cultivating the elements of partnership.
There are two major forms of cooperation: networks and partnerships. Due to prerequisites set by European Funding Programs, the partnership forms is chosen in many cases. Partnerships may occur from existing networks, but sometimes, networks may be created by partnerships.
Networking is a system of principles and actions based on new forms of collaborative actions and interventions. A broader potential is formed for dealing with society's social and financial needs which are not covered by atomic, uncoordinated and disjoint actions.
In this sense, networking requires the creation of bonds between groups and/or people, aiming to achieve various benefits, which result from the cooperation between them, as well as from the creation of economies of scale.
Furthermore, networking allows for jointly dealing with the financial cost, which would burden each and every interested party. Also, networking allows cooperating parties to better advance their positions or requests. Finally, networking may refer to either direct cooperation between people, teams and parties, or even direct communication, for example via electronic linking.
Networks are characterized by:
• Common Strategy: The network members must have a common strategic goal. In business networks, the goals include the viability and profitability of the individual company, as well as dealing with competition.
• Clear-cut agreement: The agreement might be a formal and strict contract, an informal verbal agreement, or anything in between.
• Trust: Trust is a basic prerequisite for cooperation. Specifically, companies must be certain that any activities or actions taken are within the boundaries of common interest, while at the same time are not contrast to the individual interest.
• Technology: Technological evolution allows for the immediate transfer of information between companies and drastically reduce the time and effort of transactions, allowing individual companies to act as one.
Network establishment usually aims to:
The local or geographical limitation of the Network may be a result of other factors than simply jurisdictional criteria, such as:
Entities participating in Networks might include:
The types of entities able to participate in a network cannot be predefined. Nevertheless, as a basic principle, participants must be knowledgeable in the subject, have specialization, sufficiency and will. As for the number of participants, this will result through two ambiguous criteria: representation depth on one hand, and manageability of size on the other.
The cooperation type in a network may take the form of an informal or formal cooperation. Each of these types has its own advantages and disadvantages. Many successful partnerships usually enter some type of specific form and every partner member enters in some cooperation agreement under which the purpose, goals and types of cooperation are shaped.
Furthermore, the financial restrains and responsibilities undertaken by members are set, regarding the products and services to be created through the Network. Nevertheless, the decision regarding the form of cooperation depends on a series of factors such as: the type of interventions undertaken by the Network, the conditions for financing the actions, the existence of cooperation conditions in the area, etc.
Some issues that should not be neglected during the selection of a specific form of cooperation include:
The Network operation methodology is mainly based on bidirectional communication. For the operation to be effective, the Network goals must be completely safe and conform to completely clear and specific needs.
Both Greek and international experience shows that the following principles play an important role in designing a network of Entities:
Network Methods
The methods applied by the Network aim in choosing members, safeguarding proper function, advancing the complementing of actions, assuring proper use of financial resources, as well as taking care of spreading the Network results and informing the public. They include:
The tools used for attracting institutions and people to the Network include contacting by phone, letters and/or electronic correspondence, personal meetings, creation and use of informational and documentation material regarding the Network goals, creation of participation incentives (e.g. positive publicity of institutions, growth of their human resources, collaborations etc.), transferring technical know-how and exchanging valuable experiences and knowledge.
Definition of goals
The active involvement and action of the Network members during its operation can only be certain if the members learn and understand the importance of goals and the part each member may play in achieving them. For that reason, the Network must have the following at its disposal:
Networks are based on the common agreement amongst member stakeholders to set common goals and assume common actions. For this purpose, common goals and actions must be clearly stated.
The Network operation plan is one of the basic tools, including action schedules and results. Clarity is crucial, so as not to create false expectations to the members, public or potential Network sponsors. The action schedules must accurately describe the foreseen expenses and the assignment of managers for each action.
Furthermore, it is essential that teams or members are assigned for accepting actions and activities, i.e. Network members which will have the responsibility to verify the correctness of Network actions, within the legal framework and with reasonable cost.
Through the analysis of a series of case studies regarding networking actions developed in Greece and abroad, a few conclusions were drawn, as well as general principles, which can be applied in developing networks within the Greek reality:
Implementing "soft" actions with a horizontal character (shared publicity, participation in exhibits, brochures, etc.) can become the Network's experimental operation stage. Through these actions, members learn to cooperate and evolve relationships based on proper communication and trust.
Business Networking, other than being a means for communication, is also means for managing and dealing with local problems, as well as exchanging information and technical know-how, supporting shared actions, doing parallel activities for an action, spreading Network ideas and results.
What is more, networking may act as a mechanism for sensitizing and putting pressure in dealing with hard cases, having multiplied effects. A well-structured network can:
An effective networking design offers the following in both local and regional levels:
During the network operation phase, issues arise that relate to the internal Network environment, as well as its actions with respect to its recipients (services and products offered by the Network). Indices like the percentage of active bodies amongst the Network participants, the user-recipient rate regarding those utilizing the Network, and issues like Network cooperation with other networks and other levels of programming, and at the same time Network personnel, resources and tools, are being investigated and analyzed during this phase.
An Action Program is composed during this phase, aiming to focus the network operations on actual needs. As for local matters, the same applies as with networking, mentioned above. Other relevant issues deal with the percentage of eligible recipients relevant to its compatibility, at the period applicable, with other plans (district, national), its thematic range, and so on.
Interest is focused on the following parameters:
The main relevant conclusions are respective to the following:
Expected results
In general, as based on the strategic goals defined, the total effect of the networking actions to the whole area's tourism sector is identified in the following points:
Crucial Success Factors
Crucial success factors in networking bodies include:
Applying a clear organizational structure and management methods beforehand, can significantly assist networks to follow clear rules and cooperation methods from the beginning, so that no problems arise due to lack of understanding.
Provisioning a central management body and regional – independent control bodies, elected by the majority of the members, greatly ensures the following:
International practice and experience does not show a network being more effective by having a specific number of members, while no specific standards and comparative indices have been issued.
What is apparent is that the more open the Network character, i.e. the more members it has, the more it is characterized by extroversion, the more synergies, effectiveness and technical know-how it has amongst its members.
There's always the danger of atony and bodies abandoning efforts, precisely because of the lack of visible achievement of specific results. For that reason, the coordinator has the responsibility to clearly explain that the results could possibly be long-term, during the preparative actions as well as the whole Network activation period, and that they will start becoming visible after a reasonable time period.

Beekeeping, beat-boxing classes enliven Dal Free School
Skill-sharing event challenges expensive education
January 29, 2013, 1:07 PM AST
Last updated February 8, 2013, 3:35 PM AST
"Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity — or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world." – Paulo Freire
The Dalhousie Student Union welcomed 135 students and community members to a day of free classes with the Brazilian philosopher's quote.
Yoga, knitting, beekeeping and "wikihopping" were just a few of the 21 sessions offered at the Free School event.
The day was structured into three hour-long blocks with seven classes happening per block. Students gathered in informal groups to learn skills such as rapping, drawing and consensus-based decision making.
Dalhousie political science student Bryn Karcha led a class on digital photography and composition. Karcha responded to a request from the DSU asking for volunteers with skill sets to lead a class at the event.
"The best way to learn is to practise," he tells the camera-wielding students gathered in room 324 of the SUB. It's the biggest class he has taught, but it was only natural to want to share knowledge, he says, because "that's what people did for me too, they kind of mentored me along."
When the students are done tweaking the exposure and lighting on their cameras, Karcha uses a slideshow of his freelance photography to illustrate composition technique.
Despite what ballet instructor Taylor Cudney called a "slow start," the ballet workshop took over the middle of the MacInnes room with more than a dozen eager pupils.
"I thought it'd be really easy to be a ballerina, but nope," said marine biology and international development studies student Chloe Leonard.
"For me it isn't just about skill-sharing, it's about creating the space for education that universities should be," said Beale, one of the event organizers and the VP internal of the Dalhousie Student Union.
Free School has its roots in the Ecuala Moderna anarchist movement in Spain in the late 1900s. In principle, it's based on the old-fashioned idea that education should be driven by passion and curiousity, not competition and job markets. Free School flips the notions of expensive institutions by turning learners into teachers.
Workshops attracted non-students and students from outside the Dal campus. In the session dubbed Does Marxism Even Matter? Andony Melathopoulos of the Platypus society held the attention of more than 15 community members who varied widely in age, experience, and cultural background.
Jack Wong, a NSCAD student, attended the workshop seeking answers to his university's strained financial situation. "I want to find how to illuminate that struggle and see it from other perspectives," he said.
Instructors were quick to outline their own limitations.
"I can't tie my shoes," said knot-making workshop instructor Sagar Jha, pointing to his laceless shoes. "Everyone's got a different way of thinking, of doing stuff. We'll learn from each other." he said.
At the fermentation workshop, students shared their knowledge on brewing alcohol. Experimentation was encouraged like fermenting with spices, fruit or chocolate. "Some beer is good, some beer is bad, but it's still beer," said instructor Shannon Dalberg, who, with Dalhousie student Katlin Moore, showed entranced participants the carboys and siphons of the process up close.
In an era of freely-available online tutorials, participants revelled in the real-world classrooms.
"Far be it from me to infringe on the great instructional videos of YouTube," said Alexander Smith only half-joking in a beat-boxing session. But the social space for all the lip buzzing, and throat-tweaking mouth gymnastics of the session is driven by real-world experimentation and laughter. The resulting jams, including nasal trumpets and through-the-teeth snare, couldn't happen in cyberspace.
Students, such as biology major Gabrielle Logan, were torn between choosing classes.
"Maybe next time there should be more shorter workshops at different times, instead of longer ones happening at the same time," she said. "That way we could go to more."
"I looked up all the workshops and they all sounded so interesting," said Kathryn Greenwood, a first-year Dalhousie art student who took away new skills in knot-tying, beat-boxing and ukulele.
She said the school should host similar events every week. "There is so much to learn!"
"Education doesn't need to be reformed, it needs to be transformed and personalized," says Beale, who is enthusiastic about opportunities of knowledge-sharing, especially inside an educational institution. "We can't even begin to imagine how education will change soon."

Winter Deer
This post may take a while to publish as my cat insists on getting between me and screen, but here goes. Today's card is pretty quick to put together because it has no coloring - quite the exception for me, LOL! It features the fabulous SEI paper collection entitled "Winter Song". It might be a bit hard to see in the photo, but the papers are enhanced with flocking, foil and glitter - not to mention stunning designs.
Here's how it came together....
Cut a base to create a card 5 1/4 by 7 1/4 inches;
Cut a contrast rectangle at 5 x 7 inches;
Cut four pieces of coordinating paper and ahere to the contrast piece;
Wrap with ribbon, tucking ends underneath;
Adhere to card front;
Cut a piece of paper, featuring an interesting bit of design, with Sissiz Framelits Labels Collection;
Create a frame out of another piece of the paper with a contrasting color, using the Framelits and adhere those layers to the card;
Cut a Spellbinder label from the contrast card, stamp a sentiment on a lightly colored piece of the paper and adhere all layers to card. This sentiment was heat embossed with VersaMark and StampinUp Cherry Cobler embossing powder;
And you're done - unless you want to add some stickles to the deer...hmmmm.....

"What was Ovid's view of the gods' ethical performance?"
What was Ovid's view of the god's view of right and wrong?
Well, first off, let me tell you. According to Ovid, these god's were really messed up–like more than usual. From turning each other into trees, to turning each other into animals, these god's were really skeptical of each other. They absolutely did not trust each other. They knew what was wrong but I'm not so sure they knew what was right.

My name is KARLA LOVELL from Texas in the USA. For a very long time, i was deep into financial mess untill a friend of mine told me about CONSUMER LOAN FIRM and how she was helped by the company with an Xmas loan at a very low interest rate of 2% and better repayment schedule.She further stressed that they can help me out of my financial difficulties too.Though i never believed her because i have tried lots of BANKS/CREDIT lenders who could not help me out because of my poor credit score.She advised i should give it a try to be convinced,so i mailed them via email@example.com .Behold it went well and after my explanation, they took me through the loan process and granted me the $67,000,00 as applied with ease on 26th of October 2017, i have a business of mine and my xmas bills became very much easy.ReplyDelete
ALL THANKS TO UPSTART LOAN AM NOW FINANCIALLY STABLE . email@example.com
I am Michelle Huxford from Casper, Wyoming. I was in a very chronic financial issue and terminal health situation some few weeks back. After all my search for assistance from friends and neighbors proved abortive, I feel there was no one who truly cares. I became so emaciated due to lack of good food and my 2 kids age 5 and 8 were not also good looking due to lack of proper care as a result of finance. One faithful morning I saw an old time friend of my late husband and I told him all I have been going through and he said the only way he could help was to direct me to a good loan agency that also helped him, He explained to me on how he was financially down and how he got boosted by this loan agency UPSTART LOAN INC ( email@example.com ) who grant him 245,000 USD loan at an affordable rate. He further assured me that they were the only legit loan firm he found in the quest of seeking for loan after been scammed by various fake loan lenders online. He gave me their email: email@example.com or text/call (574) 301-1639, That was how i applied and was also granted a loan and my life changed for the good. CONTACT THE ONLY GENUINE LENDERS( UPSTART LOAN INC) VIA email: firstname.lastname@example.com or call +1 (574) 301-1639 to resolve your financial mess.

On 18th October 2012, it was announced that Honeyz—along with B*Witched, Five, Liberty X, Atomic Kitten and 911—would reunite for the ITVs reality-documentary series The Big Reunion. Original member Belkhiati was unable to take part due to other commitments, so the line-up now consists of Cherry, Denton and Goodman; the first time Denton and Goodman would ever feature in the group together.
The show first aired on 31 January 2013 and followed the six bands meeting for the first time since they split, and rehearsing ahead of a comeback performance at Hammersmith Apollo. In May 2013, Honeyz began touring for the first time in over ten years and in May 2013, with a new song, "Price You Pay", which was previewed prior to each show.
They are the perfect additional for any nightclub, festival, theatre, arena and corporate event.

My MANy Bags News #200
HRH the Duke of York visited the Mulberry Factory in Chilcompton, Somerset
When a brand appreciates and invests in the artisanal skills of manufacturing at their place of origin, the effort is commendable and much welcomed. Mulberry has set up an apprentice programme to support the brand's wish to retain and increase the level of manufacturing based in the UK - a rarity in industry today. This effort resulted in their Chilcompton, Somerset factory being one of the largest of its kind for accessories manufacture, producing 30% of Mulberry's handbags that are sold worldwide.
On Tuesday 02 March HRH the Duke of York visited the Mulberry Factory in Chilcompton, Somerset.
The visit was arranged for HRH The Duke of York to see Mulberry's successful apprentice programme and investment in developing craft skills.
The apprentice programme developed with Skillfast, the learning and skills council (LSC) and Bridgwater College has rebalanced an ageing workforce – which has resulted in waiting lists of over 70 young people wanting to join the Company's production line – and supported the introduction of lean manufacturing techniques at the factory.
Does this mean more Mulberry bags will get to be manufactured in UK? I for one, supports the effort, no bag is better than the ones manufactured in the brand's country of origin. I have always loved my UK made large Bayswater and Piccadilly!

you do realise that mulberry is about as british as you... i am from london and mulberry deserted their heritage, as soon as christina ong took it over against its will. fact. and this is clearly nothing more than a marketing pr stunt... 30% is relatively insignificant. so please try to be more savvy as consumers what you are actually buying into.

Well, at least it retains the jobs in UK:-) Brands are having touch competition these days and they are being bought over by big investors to gain more financial backing. Just like what Gucci did on Balenciaga, which is a french fashion house. And Lanvin is majority owned by a Taiwanese woman. But does that make Balenciaga and Lanvin less of a french brand. Look how successful these brands are now. I believe it is what the brand is doing to uphold its heritage that's more important, not who owns it. Hopefully, Mulberry will get back more of its English roots thru more of these efforts and time:-).
Cross our fingers!:-)

This is the last warm weekend of the year here, my family's lake place is available, I am driving up with friends and will be blog free all day! Well, kind of blog free, I probably won't be able to resist checking the comments on my phone.
Driving up, in my car with a dodgy air conditioner, with two friends, I am hoping for an experience like this.
Once there, lunch from the snack shack, hopefully with no ketchup smears.
I am considering taking out the big boat for the first time without my father's supervision. Hey, if Salman can do it, I should be able to!
Followed by card games (not quite warm enough to go swimming) on the porch
Although if my friends want to risk it, I am perfectly happy to just sit there and read and watch them.
And finally, a lazy drive home, filled with memories and happiness as we return to real life.

Parker Ito was my second favorite living painter until 2011, when Cy Twombly died. Now he's my favorite living painter.
I guess my learning in the area of aesthetics is pretty elementary. It's at least not advanced enough (or close enough to a particular kind) for my excitement with the painting medium to be renewed frequently. Every once in awhile, something comes along, like a Christ Pantocrator image painted with the feathers of tropical birds in central Mexico in the 16th century or a ten-painting series based on the Iliad, to interrupt my ongoing quiet tirade against the arbitrariness of the artistic tradition. Parker's paintings represent a serious problem for my infantile philosophy.
Try to explain "Air to Surface" to your mom. Ito's paintings for the collaborative show with Helen Johnson both mimic pointillism and "approximate the method of operation of an inkjet printer," a tool that proved to be somewhat important for some of Ito's previous works. Parker also likened the style of these paintings to the way that images are presented on computers using pixels. The result is more than just Monet.bmp, it's a series of works that are visually unique, thought-provoking and, unpredictably, actually beautiful.
Try to explain "The Agony and the Ecstasy" to your mom. This solo show at STADIUM is my favorite work of Parker's. Even now, the scope of the paintings shown seems monumental despite an almost shocking visual simplicity. Regretfully, the method is still a bit confusing to me; I know that he used some reflective material from 3M to create the works, and I know that he (his assistants?) painted on it. Parker himself describes the work as commentary on the emancipatory potential of the era's social technology paired with the inescapable fragmentation of intimacy over the networks many of us use to communicate. The works are beautiful and undocumentable. To take a picture of one or even to change the lighting in the gallery or the angle from which you are viewing one presents the work in a new form. Parker makes a science out of painting, creating a uniquely curious feeling in the gallery that is replaced in online documentation by a different feeling entirely, more haunting and confusing. Even as the works themselves can appear muted and calm, their emotional resonance is rhapsodic and their interaction with the painting medium feels progressive.
Try to explain "Anime Bettie Page Fucked By Steampunk Horse Warrior" to your mom. The show's titular painting can only be called such in that it displays painterly qualities; the image itself was assembled by Parker and friends by appropriating imagery from deviantART and other websites and getting a custom lycra print made of the finished picture. The method of making the "painting" seems to speak more effectively to Parker's evocative goal in creating the work. Paired with the other works in the show (including video and sculpture), the painting comments with immediate humor and bold sexual directness on the relationship between counterculture and "fanboy-ism"/fringe communities on the internet. This painting renews my excitement in painting because of its work in challenging the boundaries of the medium and its markedly current and provocative employment of imagery.
I wonder what Parker's new paintings are about, and what they will look like. After asking me to write this, he sent me a reference image that I immediately recognized from his most recent solo show, "Parker Cheeto: The Net Artist (America Online Made Me Hardcore)", with its colorful and light-sensitive play between elements (reminiscent of "The Agony...") as well as its saturated and seemingly nonchalant juxtaposition of recognizable motifs with illegible content, including typed words and Parker's handwriting. The idea of these words becoming illegible in the service of one of Parker's paintings is exciting to me, not discouraging; it makes me want to keep typing forever. His paintings are exciting to me in that they comment in a visually beautiful way on the feelings most of us share now. Our understanding of these feelings is at best ethereal, but our experience of them is infinite in Parker's work. His paintings are firmly grounded in knowledge of the internet and holocene emotional phenomena. For that reason, he's no Twombly, but I guess for the same reason you could also argue that Twombly is no Ito.

Parker Ito – the Artist as Network
Parker Ito is a net artist. Parker Ito is an Internet artist. Parker Ito is a post-internet artist. Thus speaks Parker Ito himself. Parker Ito does not defy categorization. He loves categories and he loves to apply them to himself. This is why he is hard to pin down. The labels stick to him just as they peel off. Or maybe they simply cover each other archeologically like posters on a billboard. Maybe this is why people call him nicknames instead. Parker Ito loves that, too. When people call him nicknames, he adopts them. Therefore, Parker Ito is not simply a net artist, an Internet artist, a post-internet artist. Parker Ito is no longer simply Parker Ito. Parker Ito thus reappears as Parker Burrito. Parker Ito exhibits as Parker Cheeto. Parker Ito works in the name of Deke2 and Olivia Calix. Parker Ito tweets in the name of Parker's Poetry LOL: "If I wasn't me… I wouldn't be me."
It is not because Parker Ito has multiple identities. He does not have a second life. He is not – to use a much used word in art speak - schizophrenic. Nor is it because he seeks anonymity. On the contrary. "Yeah," he says, "I'm into transparency." He wants to exhibit, display, pose, collaborate – he wants to be present so he can participate. His names are more like the codenames you use when locking onto your netbank, your youtube account, your website. His characters are more similar than different. Ito is his given name, but the other names have also been given to him. A name is not something that sets him apart, but something that makes him take part. Parker Cheeto likes to exhibit the work of Parker Ito who likes to exhibit the work of Parker Burrito. Parker Ito, Parker Burrito, Parker Cheeto, and Deke2 like to show their works within each other's works. Parker Ito is not simply part of a network. He has become a network. He is a network in a network where the first becomes difficult to tell from the latter. Parker Ito also exhibits with people who are not Parker. He shows online and offline with Body by Body, together they are known as Aventa Garden. He is part of and behind the digital platforms Paint FX and JstChillin. He collaborates with himself in the way he collaborates with others. He himself invented Deke2, when he started to work with the artist duo Body to Body, whom in turn invented the art critic Julia Rob3rts, who in turn wrote about Body By Body and Deke2. With ease Parker Ito lets himself go into a network because it is not other but also him – just as anybody else using the Internet today. This is also why it is difficult to say when he is creative and created, curating and curated – just as the title of his film America Online Made Me Hardcore with all his peers suggests, itself an echo of Mark Leckey's film Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore.
The Internet has always been social and inclusive. This has always been the idea underpinning its development, but today in the age of Web 2.0 it is no longer just an idea. It has become so easy to use, that anybody can participate creatively. It is a playground that is developed by geeks and nerds in such a way that you no longer have to be a geek or nerd to use it. And this fact is something Parker Ito makes a virtue of because he is not a geek or nerd. In his own words, he is rather the opposite: "I'm not an Internet artist – I'm just a hipster on the Internet who makes art. DOI."
Of course, Parker Ito does no consider himself anybody. But he likes to include anybody, for instance in his project The Most Infamous Girl in the History of the Internet, which he also calls Parked Domain Girl. A project, which serves as a reminder, that the moment anybody participates, anybody is no longer anybody. It is mass culture that is no longer mass culture since it is not made by an anonymous mass, but rather a lot of different people. The project started in 2010 and it is still running. It started when Parker Ito took over the probably most known stock photo of a woman on the Internet at the time. The photo was that of a smiling school girl who greeted all visitors, amidst various ads and links, to so-called parked domains bought by the company Demand Media – a company which had acquired thousands of domain names in order to resell them. Parker Ito asked the Chinese company orderartwork.com to reproduce the photo in oil. In turn Parker Ito would paint and manipulate the oil reproductions which he again asked orderartwork to reproduce while simultaneously making the resulting images tour the internet, inviting others to join in. The default image quickly became a meme, produced by a variety of people from the copists who try to stay as close to the original as possible to amaterus on the Internet who most often try to do the opposite. The girl got "parked" on more and more sites – by Parker and many others. In the process various of her qualities were enhanced. While Parker painted her over, others undressed her. Some made her younger, others older. And while she gradually changed into many different things, it started to look as if this was what she was about all along. To some she looks innocent, a nice girl - to others beautiful, an object of desire. In the end, her innocence also became the object of desire that more and more people wanted to touch and retouch. The more people who joined in, the more she became the artist-as-network's. The more she got parked, the more Parker's she became. No wonder the girl's brother, who took the photo and uploaded it to iStockPhoto, felt strange about it. No wonder he wrote Parker Ito an email, explaining that though he ceded the rights to the photo for 60 cents to iStockphoto, he had not predicted the direction it would all take. The girl on the brother's photo looks both like a kid and like a teenager. She is caught between two things which are rather similar - close to one. As the project developed she has became more and more what Parker Ito is becoming.
Often in Parker Ito's works the artist juxtaposes two things – two things which might have been opposites earlier on, but are becoming more and more similar. It could be the real and the virtual. Or a photo and painting. It could also be Parker Ito's incessant use of the language of abstract painting juxtaposed with or enmeshed in flowers. The latter is even where all the above comes together for Parker Ito. On the one hand we have flowers in the still life tradition from Spain and the Netherlands in the 17th century, which equals hyperrealism, today redubbed photorealism. On the other hand, abstraction, which in the 19th and 20th century grew out of a negation of figuration, of a realist representation of reality. Parker Ito walks in the tracks laid out by these two traditions and then again he is the heir to neither. Or rather, he is the heir to Edouard Manet, who in the words of Georges Bataille treated still life as "a pretext for the act of painting." Nowhere is this idea more convincing that in the syphilis-ridden and partly immobilized Impressionist's last paintings, a large bulk of which where mere flower paintings. If he was by then still a painter of modern life, modern life was by then but a composition of colors. Later, in the 1950s Clement Greenberg would trace modernist painting back to this man for whom painting was nothing but paint. But Parker Ito can also be backtracked to this sort of painting where paint is not simply painting but modern life. The flower Parker Ito likes the most is a flower, which is in itself like a bouquet, a composition of different colors. It is the rainbow rose, whose stalk is split in order to draw up different colors. It is a flower that is split to become one, just like Parker Ito is made up of Parker Ito, Cheeto, Burrito, Oilvia, Deke2, and so on. In this rose the painter, the painted and the painting become one. It is thus a flower which does not look more or less unreal when Parker Ito exhibits it as such, reworks it in Photoshop, with the gradient function, screen prints it onto reflector fabric, rephotographs it and leaves it circulating on the Internet. It is a flower, which does not only blossom one time, but continues to blossom – whose process of dematrialization is accelerated by being split just as its process of rematerializations. If the flower is an abstract painting, it is not because it can be reduced to pure paint. It is rather abstract because it cannot be reduced to one thing. And this is probably why it makes sense that Parker Ito has written in a press release that he doesn't "believe in pronouncing GIF the right way," nor "in wearing all black", nor "in press releases" – but rather "me… The Internet and me."
As Parker Ito's presence on the Internet grows, his presence in the art world also grows. But his presence in the latter is more than just a presence, because the Internet not simply expands the art world, but also supplants it to a certain extent. It not only enables and facilitates, but also habituates artists to take matters into their own hands. At a time, when the art world has become professionalized and specialized, Parker Ito is among a bunch of new artists who move in the opposite direction. He sometimes writes his own press releases while claiming he does not believe in press releases. On his iPhone he translates his PR into the language of picture characters, emojis, which he in turn reintegrates into a painting, which is sold to a collector while also circulating as an image on the Internet. On various websites he curates shows. Sometimes he also sells the works online. On the Internet he shows photos of himself posing in front of his own works, making selfies, which imitate his own self-portraits. He exhibits pictures in gallery spaces, which are made to be multiplied. The professional art photographer might shoot his photos, but Parker Ito might change them – either afterwards or preemptively. He makes reflector paintings which shortcircuit the idea of one good photo per work. These paintings change according to the light and the position of the viewer. Though they are flat, sealed with a layer of vinyl, they behave as sculptures, which are experienced on the move. Except now it is no longer the body of the viewer, which is on the move, but the image itself. It looks in many different ways in the gallery room. It looks in still more different ways when photographed. And as it travels from camera to Photoshop to various websites, it keeps changing. Parker Ito takes on the role of all the other agents in the art world. He can be the curator, the art writer, the dealer, the photographer. He can even be the collector who commissions works. And yet, Parker Ito does not replace all these different players. He simply plays them in order to play with them. He is not interested in institutional critique. If anything, he is into institutional change. In this way, he becomes an art world onto himself – an art world within an art world just as he becomes a network within a network where the former becomes difficult to tell from the latter. It might seem a complete mess. But it might also simply be another order.
Toke Lykkeberg, March 2013
In the beginning man made paintings on the walls of caves. Then perspective was invented and that was cool. Then people tried to paint light (which looked really good). Then men created things called computers. We taught these computers how to paint with light and take really high res photos of cave paintings. And now in the year 2013 it's all about making paintings on canvas (mostly) (not on cave walls) that look like they are painted with light, that look like paintings not painted with light but sorta like the paintings in the caves. It's all very confusing because it's hard to tell what is what and who is who. What am I looking at? What is the thing? Where is the thing?
These are all things.
There is no thing.
But this whole time we've been arguing about painting and you just realize that it's just some dirt on a canvas, on a wall, or on a computer screen. - by ME

I'm often surprised that a lot of Taiwanese people can speak Japanese very well!
Last week I went to a convenience store, and the cashier found I am Japanese, so he talked to me in Japanese. It often happens in Taiwan. In Japanese style restaurants like ramen(noodles) shop, they say いらっしゃいませ! when I enter there.
*If you have been to Japan, you would have heard this phrase (いらっしゃいませ) a lot!
This clip was really fun. XD You can enjoy it with English subtitles!
I especially like the last part of it. I hope I also would be able to speak foreign language fluently like them!! Awesome!
*Japanese Word of the Day*
えっ 何(なん)のために持(も)ってるのか?
/eh nan no tame ni motteru noka?/
Wait, why am I carrying this?
(Watch 17:22~ of this video!)
*Yodobashi Camera is a big electronics store.
The man on this video from 17:22 loves shopping at Yodobashi Camera.
He showed his laptop and said he can't do anything without it so he always carrying it.
And he said....
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

Speak Foreign Languages Fluently
2 comments:
Konbanwa^^! When I saw the proglam, I laughed!ReplyDelete
They speak Japanese very fluently! I agree. I want to speak foreign language like them. (They enjoy their interview!)
I think Having interest of foreign language or culture are important.
What do you think?Replies
Yeah, if you have an interest in a foreign language, that would motivate you to study it. =)Delete
Hey, you're studying French, Chinese, Spanish and Korean, right? It must be really hard if you had no interest in them. Good luck!
Thank you for your comment, Gabriella-san!

11 Methods to Safeguard Your self Through Obtaining Destroyed with a Common Service provider
The actual odor associated with sawdust wafting with the atmosphere, the actual seems associated with hammers as well as saws, stacks of creating materials, as well as employees within hardhats… indeed, this appears like somebody is actually getting a few building function carried out! Even though all the items as well as gamers have been in location as well as just about all seems to be so as, appears could be misleading.

It's official. Kylie Jenner is Kim Kardashian's mini me. Kylie wowed in a stunning see-through dress at Cannes on Wednesday. The youngest Kardashian-Jenner showed her entire midriff and legs in the lingerie-esque getup, looking absolutely beautiful ... and absolutely like her big sis Kim.
Kylie wore her dark hair long and loose for the MailOnline Yacht Party. No doubt she was looking to get some attention ... and attention she certainly got. Check Kylie out. Wow!
Gorgeous, right? Kylie looks like the Belle of the Ball in this show-stopping number. And the only other Kardashian-Jenner sister I can imagine wearing this is Kim. Kindred spirits. Or copy cats.
More From The Stir: Kylie Jenner's Changing Looks: From Family Baby to Voluptuous Woman (PHOTOS)
Interestingly, Kylie also made a rather strange admission during an interview with the Daily Mail. Kylie revealed that she takes "500 selfies to get the right one." I seriously hope that's an exaggeration.
Kylie said, "I take, like, 500 selfies to get one I like. Sometimes I regret putting one up if I find a better one later. I'm like damn, that's a better photo, but that's the only thing I regret." I mean, it doesn't exactly come as a surprise that Kylie puts a little more thought than the average person into her selfies, being that she has almost 30 million followers. But, sheesh. This takes vanity to a whole new level.
Whatever. I don't think any of us will ever fully understand the Kardashian-Jenner girls. And we don't need to! They're pretty! Just kidding. But, seriously, Kylie, that's a lot of selfies.
Are you surprised by this?

Four ways to help your child forge lifelong friendships
As parents, we often want to solve everything for our chidren, but the key to encouraging your child to create lifelong friendships is to give them some space and help point out what makes a good friend. Here are four ways you can help your child:
1. If he has had a bad day, listen sympathetically, but don't rush in to solve his problems. Tell him that all relationships go through ups and downs. He may say he hates his friend one moment, but next day they'll be best buddies again.
2. Talk with your child about what other children like and don't like – there might be some things that don't seem obvious to your child at some ages. Explain that kind, thoughtful children tend to have more friends and give her tips on how to fit in with other children. For instance, if she wants to join in a game of 'shops', she could offer to be a customer rather than demand that she takes over the till.
3. Help your child see a situation from the other person's point of view. Some children aren't able to see the difference between a real put-down and an unintentional slight."Sometimes it's hard to know if children are having serious problems or just experiencing the ebb and flow of friendships," says US psychologist Dr Eileen Kennedy-Moore. "Ask your chid if he has someone to sit with at lunchtime at school, or at snack time at playgroup. If so, you can probably worry less."
4 Stay positive. "It can really hurt if your child doesn't get invited to a birthday party," says Dr Kennedy-Moore. "Help her see the reasons, other than deliberate meanness, why this might have happened." Perhaps there was only space for a few guests. Or maybe it was a boys-only party. Even if you are a little sceptical yourself, try not to say anything negative about the birthday boy or girl; putting other people down won't help your child learn the value of respect and kindness.

The difference between scripting languages and programming languages are an illusion. :) Python is intepreted while Java is compiled. That makes Python superiour in many ways. ;-) -- Lennart Regebro, Nuxeo http://www.nuxeo.com/ CPS Content Management http://www.cps-project.org/ _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - firstname.lastname@example.com http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

English writers from earlier centuries peppered their work with commas as if they shook them out from a pepper shaker. They didn't believe in reasonable length sentences and extended them by whatever means necessary. It's symbolic of their time. A mark of higher learning from elite schools that divulged the lavish use of the comma, secrets of the semi-colon, and the elements for style in any era. They remain geniuses of their time and ours.
So, what's changed since then–readers, writers, publishers, or the passage of time? I shy away from an extra clause, let alone risk it all by living on the edge with a wayward semicolon. Even the Oxford comma is now worthy of scholarly debates and often settled with smarty-pants verbal fisticuffs. William Faulkner, an American from Oxford, Mississippi, didn't mind long sentences either. However, this isn't symbolic of our time–a troubling one at that. Short, clear, and crisp sentences are the new fashion. Continue reading

Interior Design
Vin unleashed his interior designing skills with their action figures the other day. Bea and Sam were in school and he had no one to play with when he saw the girls dollhouse and the crate of action figures beside it. He asked me if he could play with it. I said. "Yes you may." and he was at work while i too was deep in my search online for furniture to jumpstart our moving to our new home. Then he asked me to look at what he made ... i was so amused how he fixed them up in the different places of the house that i took pictures of it. I noticed he grouped the girls together, the Pokemon characters together and he had an accompanying explanation on as to why a certain toy was beside another. It was indeed very creative and smart!

Allergy Therapeutics plc (LON:AGY) has told investors it expects to report a rise in revenues in line with expectations for the first half of its financial year as it continues to win market share in its key territories.
The speciality pharma group has made gains in highly competitive markets such as Spain, Germany, Austria and Holland over the past six months or so, despite an "abnormally weak" pollen season in Central Europe.
H1 revenues to rise 4.4% year-on-year
Allergy – which has a portfolio of patient-friendly allergy vaccines – said it had managed to take share away from its rivals in those countries and others thanks to a "focused sales and marketing strategy and its exclusive technology platform".
As a result, the AIM-quoted firm said revenues for the six months ended December 31 are expected to grow 4.4% compared to the same period a year ago.
The company has been leveraging these additional revenues on current infrastructure to improve its operational margins pre-R&D.
This, along with careful planning of working capital and capex investments, has allowed the group to maintain a healthy cash position of £25.8mln (31 Dec 2016: £27.8mln).
Second half started well
Pollinex Quattro – the firm's vaccine designed to treat the symptoms of seasonal allergens such as grass, trees etc – remains a key growth driver, while its Venomil venom allergy vaccine and dust mite allergy treatment, Acarovac Plus, are also performing strongly.
Post-period end, Allergy said trading "remains positive" and it is confident in the outlook for the business for the remainder of the year.
"Our strategy to prioritise patient-friendly vaccines with focus on patient compliance and improving adherence rates is demonstrating success," said chief executive Manuel Llobet.
"Our portfolio of ultra-short course vaccines is driving our market penetration in Europe and preparing the ground for a successful US entry.
"All our key development programmes are being executed according to plan and our long-term strategic objectives, are on track."
Pipeline remains strong
AGY isn't standing still though and is looking to add new products to its portfolio.
Currently in the pipeline is a treatment for people allergic to birch pollen, which is about to undergo a European phase III clinical trial during the birch pollen season (normally March to June) after the recruitment phase was completed earlier this month.
If the trial proves that PQ Birch – as the vaccine is known – safely reduces the symptoms of sufferers, the study would pave the way for marketing authorisation.
Results from a phase II trial of its PQ Grass treatment are expected in the second half of this year, with the recruitment stage now well underway. Once the results are in, Allergy bosses will meet with European and US regulators to discuss the design of a phase III study.

Cherwell District Council-run car parks are due to be spruced up over the next few months causing closures along the way.
Between August 30 and the end of November, Graham Construction will carry out various resurfacing and relining works to the council's public car parks in Banbury with a view to completing the upgrade in time for Christmas.
Councillor George Reynolds, Cherwell's deputy leader, said: "As a matter of course we do address any issues with the car parks as soon as they are reported to us. However every couple of years we undertake a routine upgrade which involves a general spruce up of all of the sites.
"There will be unavoidable car park closures to allow the line repainting and so we will be undertaking this work on a Sunday when the car parks are least busy and when it will have the least impact on permit holders. We apologise for any disruption during this maintenance period; we will do our best to advertise any works in advance to minimise the impact on users and have the car parks looking their best for the run up to Christmas."
Works on the car parks will be put on hold in October to allow for the annual fair which uses a number of town centre car parks. Cherwell is responsible for 16 car parks in Banbury and the Bridge Street drop off point.

Look at the micro world.
Not your own interpersonal, social micro world - but the real micro; the thing at your feet filled with tiny creatures and moss, minute organisms, floating particles of pollen.
When I was a little kid I used to spend hours poking around in small patches of grass. I would eye off a square, maybe 20x20cm and bring myself down to that level to observe it.
I was always fascinated by the thick, densely inhabited jungles that would then appear in front of me, previously ignored or unnoticed. Leopard-print bugs and iridescent dragonflies would crawl and flutter through forests of dandelion, and tiny rivers filled with miniature rapids made by gravel boulders would trickle through them, separating each side the way the Ganges delta splits its mangrove forests into smaller groupings of trees.
Looking at the outer world, the real world is so much more interesting than the interpersonal. It's good, to see and touch and feel and notice as much as possible, to keep the whole picture in perspective.
It's amazing how small we can make ourselves, by making our problems seem bigger than they really are. Like the way cascading water pools and becomes stagnant, we can let all our stressors flow down into one area...until the banks reach breaking point.
And strangely, looking out at the macro (even on a micro scale) can pull us back to reality.
You can send yourself crazy over-thinking silly things.Take a breath.
