You know, kismet, what's to be will be, after all, maybe the blow to his head rearranged some neurons and now he will experience higher consciousness. Oh, the circumstances may vary from individual to individual, but the essence of the lesson never did. What happens to the body when one becomes normal is no less than a weakening of the immune system and further, suspended states of fight flight, or as we know it in more modern man, anxiety and depression, literally produce chemistry that is toxic to the human condition. Carl LaPresch used to speak of the four "F's" in his introductory lectures regarding basic psychology. Nothing I could do---helplessness---victim-hood---this side of the responsibility equation is among the worst of mental processes one can adopt regardless of its source. The assumption suggests that one must fully accept the responsibility for their own lives and mental processes even if that means guarding against the influence of another.It was not long before I was wearing glasses and one of my best friends was black. Seeing is believing. The method of choice for conflict in my particular upbringing was aggressive---and hostility was the norm. Dogs were placed in Pavlovian slings where they could do nothing when electric shock was administered by psychologist Martin Seligman at the University of Pennsylvania in an experiment to determine the effects of helplessness. My relationships deteriorated and/or were destroyed, and well, you can just imagine the havoc wreaked in my own life. My early definitions were in direct conflict with my experience; still, various strategies for coping with this conflict developed, albeit most unconsciously. In fact, it was Carl who first suggested to me that perhaps the highest act of human consciousness was cortical inhibition---over riding the wired in responses that can occur in the primitive brain. When there is nothing to fear, there is nothing to become angry about or no one to blame. They can only but whimper. He told her of what it was like to be an eagle and soar high above the earth. As victims, perhaps they are even due benefits such as sympathy, attention, special care and so on. She trembled. He responded in the affirmative. This sense or conditioned belief in victim-hood has been demonstrated Single-Phase Relays Company to effect the immune system in a negative manner.There is an interesting experiment that has been replicated many times and perhaps addresses the effect this kind of hopelessness/helplessness mentality can have on physical health. The person who assumed control of their own life and found creative solutions for difficult situations---returning the flower, if you will, replanted in a new flower pot.The result was devastating. Alas, a light went on that set years of work and research into perspective, at least for me. His stories only frightened her. What else could he do? Well, he could be an opportunist. The answer is forgive! In my research we began applying three messages as cognitive tools to untie the victim. What you cannot become angry about, you do not fear. They are victims of their circumstances. Indeed, it was the rule. Our choices are predicated on our beliefs and our beliefs have been adopted from the same process inherent to the story about the chickens and the chicken house. Once again, it's so simple as to be difficult---difficult to believe and difficult to do." "Children are to be seen and not heard. They became so good at it that when the electricity was turned on, they simply got up and casually jumped over the wall.In my work, I have had the opportunity to work with a wide range of individuals in differing settings, ranging from the inmate incarcerated in maximum security to the terminal patient in the hospice center. In other words, our individual intrinsic value was denied. What could he do? What would be the normal thing to do? Well, he could take the broken pot back to its owners and put it guess where. Still, if you want to see the barnyard from the sky, spread your wings and see for yourself. Sometimes the anger is withheld, turned in, and sometimes it is acted out. None of these things are truly life threatening and after all, isn't that what the fight/flight functions are wired in for, the preservation of the species?Dr.
Nevertheless, there is no such thing as anger without some fear underpinning it! Now, what exactly is anger? My examination of this cycle of fear and anger has given rise to an acronym that I often use when describing anger. Finally she said, "Well if I'm an eagle then you will not harm me". If fear and anger are circular, what is it that gives rise to feeling frightened, anxious or nervous, becoming angry and responding in a fight/flight way when the stimulus is something like the way my employer speaks to me, the way my significant other looks at me, or just the stuff one feels when cut off in five o'clock traffic and given the infamous bird.Many of us are like the female eagle." "You're stupid or that's stupid. Life is simply a miracle and living is the process of maximizing the miraculous experience. However, dogs that had been conditioned to the sling ran frantically at first just as the unconditioned dogs but soon quit and only whimpered. In fact, in a paper that is now in press, we learned from a follow-up study of terminally diagnosed patients conducted by PROGRESSIVE AWARENESS RESEARCH, that the physicians attitude is somehow more influential on patient life expectancy than either the treatment modality or the patients attitude toward their future, their responsibility regarding the disease and/or their outcome expectation. Unlike the whimpering victim, they were what they made of the stuff of life and accepted so.These responsible individuals were in charge of their own inner environments.What I have found over the years of life and work is that once again, this was not a unique pattern. The real changes are made in you and thus your experience of life and self become qualitatively different almost immediately.'s Steven Locke and Douglas Colligan point out in their book, THE HEALER WITHIN, these hostile emotions, victim, if you will, feelings, literally can condition the body in the direction of disease as well as produce certain diseases in and of themselves (1986). The study generally indicated a survival rate of over 30% for all respondents (remission) and an increase in life by up to three years over time given in prognosis for those patients whose physicians generally agreed that the mind has a role in patient health even in the face of "terminal" illness. What is more, I discovered that on the opposite side of this continuum, rested the self responsible. Whip lash, concussion, something like that---sue the sucker!What else could he do? What would you do? How about taking the flower to a florist, potting it and returning it as a gift of love? Could you just as well do that? Of all the possibilities, which one do you think would produce the best outcome for yourself in terms of happiness, wholeness and even health?The fact is, the normal person has been trained to behave in a normal manner. The idea is not foreign in terms of possible alternatives and yet it is seldom ever considered. My work and research has demonstrated that for every fear there is an anger response. When the other chickens questioned her about the encounter, she told them all of how she had outsmarted the eagle. Thus, what else could the victim of these tragedies do?We all grow up with some substantially similar ideas and notions about what is fair and acceptable.Applying this theory I discovered that regardless of the circumstances, from hospice to prison, the suffering was directly related to blame or "victim-hood". Your health, your enjoyment of life, your ability to become all that you are is inescapably involved in your ability to forgive and let go.One day a man walking the streets of Manhattan passed beneath a high rise complex that consisted of very expensive condominiums. In my many lectures throughout America and Europe, the audience has repeatedly verified that my experience was not unique. The result for many of us is a mechanism called blame.The correct answer in our flower pot analogy is of course, pot the flower and return it as a gift." "Don't do this"---"you can't do that"---and so forth as well as a host of labels. Over the years my observations ultimately led to this hypothesis: the persons who seem to suffer most consider themselves to be victims. And if necessary, fake it until you make it. They accepted the shock passively and thus the whimpering shocked dog metaphor (Ibid).But alas, you may say, that's all too simple and further life sucks and then we die. Now imagine this man's choices. You know that flower pot fell from a wealthy person's ledge. She said, "Then step back and show me.
We refuse to let them go. What else could he do? Well, he could be metaphysical. But as victims, they are not in charge of their circumstances and/or their responses. In other words, my defense strategy was compensatory---aggression would align my inner with the outer---my experience with my training as a child could avoid conflict by simply becoming too tough for someone to challenge my behavior. If this generalization applies, then most of us were raised with statements like: "You're not old enough. They took the initiative to resolve situations positively and assumed the responsibility for doing so. To his amazement, pecking in the yard below, was a large gathering of chickens and a lone, beautiful female eagle.When I was a boy my definitions included labels and what I have termed for years as the no-don't syndrome. For years I had coped by demonstrating that I was "tough enough" to wear glasses and not get called four-eyes and to stand up for what just inherently seemed wrong and later became known to me as bigotry and racism.Copyright 2005 Eldon Taylor. Psychologist call this process imprinting. There is nothing they can do.You are in charge of your inner environment, and your beliefs, attitudes and emotions do matter to you. One is to have someone literally bind you and another is simply to tether oneself to a thread, refusing either to pull hard enough to break it or to let it go. Among these strategies our defense mechanisms function, as well as our attitudes, toward everything we will encounter in our lives. We outsmart ourselves with betrayals of who we really are. He spoke, "What are you doing living down here like a chicken". Interestingly though, for most of us, the normal strategy for avoiding rejection is itself the ultimate rejection. There is a marvelous story that illustrates this point.The fact is, our environment and circumstance do imprint us in profound ways. The emotional reaction termed anger is just one such absurdity. He argued, showing her the similarities between himself and her. These four primitive drives were the basis for most behavior. Of course, all the chickens commended her for tricking the eagle. The Institute of Noetic Sciences has funded much of the research in what is now termed PNI or psychoneuroimmunology and this body of work shows clearly, as does the entire body of literature regarding mind/body wellness, that the deleterious effects of certain mental processes on the body can literally kill ( ). Try it---I promise, you'll like it. Here is another example of how this kind of reason pervades who and what we are. Many of our beliefs are the product of the latter. We all tend to say things like "When I'm a parent, I'll do it differently"; and yet, when our children act in some way that meets with our disapproval, we respond just as our parents did.Why then a fight/flight response to a synthetic stimuli---that is a stimuli that is not life threatening? What special lens do we attach to certain events in life that give rise to a perception of threat when indeed the threat is not a tiger in hot pursuit? My early hypothesis regarding the fear/anger loop eventually led to the conclusion that perceived threats were rejection oriented. He swooped down for a closer look and the chickens together with the eagle fled to the chicken house. As he passed under the balcony of one of the two story units a flower pot which had been placed precariously close to the balcony edge fell and crashed down on his head.When you forgive, you can not blame. They are called the forgiveness set and consist of these three statements: I forgive myself; I forgive all others; and I am forgiven.What then is the pragmatic to overcome, or I prefer, to outgrow, this early conditioning. A nasty getting even response.It seems one day that an eagle flew over a chicken coop. Like the eagle raised by the chickens, we know what we are expected to do and define our behavior accordingly. In very simple terms, if you raise a duckling with chickens, it will behave as a chicken. As victims, they are helpless. As Dr. So just be metaphysical and act as if it was supposed to happen and just go on down the road. There are two ways to be tied up in the world. The classic victim scenario in the prison generally goes something like this: all but for the grace of God there go you. Robert Laing once said something like "normal man has educated himself to be normal and thus to become absurd" in his book THE POLITICS OF EXPERIENCE.What makes the difference between two children raised in the same environment with the same parents when one ends up a neuro-surgeon and the other a hardened violent criminal? What makes the difference between two patients suffering in a hospice center from identical conditions when one requires very little medication and is liked by all, while the other suffers bitterly regardless of the medication and no one really wants to be around them?
What are the subtle differences that seem to allow one person to live a certain life style free of illness while another doing the same things becomes ill as a result? What defines a stimulus as stressful to one while the same exact stimulus is welcomed with excitement by another? The answer is so simple as to be overly obvious. Translated by the inmate population, this means something like, "What would you do? Where would you be? After all, my daddy was an alcoholic, my mother was a prostitute and the neighbor boy hung heroine on me when I was only eight". Once the dogs were conditioned to the shock they were then placed in cages with floors that on one side of the cage an electric grid could be used to apply shock while on the other side of a low barrier wall the dog could escape the shock. Somehow the attitude of the physician is assumed to have been communicated to the patient for in every single instance where the physicians responded to the questionnaire regarding patients role in terms of the positive use of their mind with neutral to negative evaluation, the patient died. What Seligman discovered has many ramifications.It wasn't until I was in my thirties that I learned that not only did I wear glasses and have black friends, but my grandfather was Jewish and my great grandmother was Native American. Not only did I poison myself, but the never ending quest to justify my actions produced increasing needs for aggression. Their secret was simple, they did not become angry and involved in blame. For days the eagle watched the chickens from a distance until one day he was certain that he could stop the beautiful eagle before she reached the chicken house. A---a, N---nasty, G---getting, E---even, R---response. Our very ability to cope depends in large on our choices and they are predetermined in large by our enculturation process.Now here is the bottom line: as long as one blames anything or anyone they are effectively tied up. The four "f's" are easy to remember and oriented to species preservation: fight, flight, feeding and---well the propagation of the species. Normal means that they have a right to become angry and exact punishment. With the prowess of an eagle he was suddenly in between the eagle and the chicken house. She answered, "I am a chicken". Oh they did not necessarily accept everyone or anything, in fact, quite the contrary in some instances, but they did not waste time eliminating their possibilities by divesting their power via blame. Seligman suggests that many of us have learned that nothing can be done in many circumstances to make a difference. Thus, to resolve conflict we establish strategies designed to protect us from rejection." As he stepped backed she seized the opportunity to run into the chicken house. That brings us right back to our inmate whose daddy was an alcoholic and so forth. Our choices arise from our definitions and they have been incubated all too often in chicken houses, but let's stop for a moment and look at one of the preferred enculturated choices from the human chicken house. They learned to jump the small wall and escape the shock. Administer a beating to the idiot that put the flower pot too close to the edge, that's what most people respond with as their first thought when I have presented this scenario to audiences. When you accept responsibility for everything in your universe, you gain the power to make changes. And I am sure you can find many that will agree. Every thought or deed becomes therefore differently oriented. Dogs who had not been conditioned in the sling ran around frantically when shock was first administered. If you do not blame it's exceedingly difficult to become angry
Megosztás a facebookonThis can hardly be used as an argument against me, for most of the world has harbored slavery at one point in time, and the roots of sexism have taken hold at least in every region once. How Sexism has managed to survive for so long, until the agitation of 60's and 70's Feminists, seems to us so difficult.Among the ideas that are commonly debated in our modern society, there is the idea of wealth redistribution, an idea that is largely associated with liberals and liberalism. This is the way that so many civilizations of the past have existed, the way their culture developed. This is no mere small reform. To think that so many millions of women were forced to endure such brutality is to almost unbelievable. Particularly, it is a revolution in property relations. We would be liberating an oppressed class that was just as deserving of the rights to life and liberty as any other. But, just as we didn't listen to these arguments when they defended sexism, we will not listen to them when they defend capitalism.6 - Worker to BossOnce the fetters of Feudalism were destroyed by the hands of liberty, a new system would develop. While Thomas Hobbes set up a system that allowed for the growth of Fascism and Totalitarianism, Thomas Paine set up a system that maintained that the people were the direct source of power for the government. However, there is still the cry that what we are doing is unjust, what we are doing is immoral, what we are doing violates a higher, ethical principle. They have suggested reforms, some progressive, others regressive, while many still defended the status quo of their own era.So, the votes of all humane thinkers today are unanimous: Sexism must be eliminated. Yet, even with this policy, misery abounds. And, of course, I am speaking of unions here, the combinations of working men and women.However, as we are inclined, as free men, towards the ideal of Anarchism, so it is that we are also destroying the property relations of society. We want to convince them to stand up for their rights. For a great deal of time, something that was considered unpatriotic, opposed to the common good, and otherwise inherently violent, is now considered a part of our national pride. We are not limiting the physical abuse that a slave may be forced to endure.The idea of political autonomy, as many of us today believe, is that the people have the right to govern their own lives, that it is each and every person who must have a say in the matters of social organization." To say that a worker should work and only be paid what is needed to live, is no different than to hold a human being as a slave with chains, or to require a woman to submit to a man's will, or to demand that a person accept the position of a serf. The lords of the manor had a relationship with their serfs that was not entirely unlike the masters with their slaves. As individuals who consider the rest of the world our kin, there is nothing more distressing and bothering than to hear of these cases of the enslaved thinking that they should be enslaved. However, once the means of production became concentrated in factories and farms, and were in the hands of a few elite, the problems of the old world would rise again. In some cases, it was a difference between class, as it was in Sumer, or it was a difference between race, as it was in the United States In some cases, the slaves were allowed some form of advancement in society. With these as our arguments, we support the serf's right to no longer be a serf, but to be a citizen, on an equal footing with a vassal, who is no longer a vassal but just a citizen. We firmly believe in our hearts that every man has the right to leave any piece of land, that they must be in control of their own lives and their own destiny. They murdered their people, tortured political opponents, and created a reign of fear. I feel that it is quite unnecessary to defend Abolitionism or to argue for the end of slavery in this society. I produce the wealth of the world. The society that you live in, you have no control over it. By recognizing them as independents, we are shattering the property relations that exist in our society, since we no longer recognize them as property.. The rights of masters over slaves was perhaps much greater than the rights of lords over serfs. Those who support wealth redistribution also support other things such as raising the minimum wage laws, increasing health care, decreasing the work week, and other things that would otherwise aid the working class and eliminate poverty. In good time, enough men of boldness, enough men of courage, would gather, organize, and some would sacrifice their lives and their liberty, that the rest of society may breathe freely. If we are without a Capitalist class, we will still be under the unjust rule of a leader. Yet, there is still one last field that I have left untouched in this writing. We are Anarchists, because we believe in overthrowing the current property relations of society. There is a separation of classes. The arguments advanced against such a theory are no different than those arguments against abolitionism or sexism. And, even beyond this, these progressive reforms are highly criticized by conservatives as being destructive to the economy and antithetic towards ideals of justice.I believe that the reason why we detest and abhor slavery is the same reason why we rejected Feudalism as an oppressive, cruel system. We read the history of slaves, and even in the early years of Frederick Douglass's life, we read of how he was submissive, taught to believe that his position in life was deserving. Even today, nations that are conquered by other nations do not impose a slavery on the conquered peoples, but a form of Imperialism and economic exploitation through mercantilism. Above all, we must have a leaderless society, where each person is as much a citizen as they are a king. It was believed in that day that serfs belonged to the land, and the land belonged to a vassal and a lord, who in turn had to face others in the hierarchy. Yet here we approach an area that has had little to no improvement at all. For a great deal of time, women were treated simply as property, first owned by their father, and then owned by their husband.comFor Life,Punkerslut.. It is fortunate that those nations based on Fascism have tumbled, for the most part. These two ideologies are intrinsically connected. Such an ideology, such a belief on the reorganization of society and mankind, has been called Socialism, or Communism. They are conscious, they are endowed with the capability of thought. We have here the horrifying reality of a police state. Philosophers taught the people that they must be in control of their own lives while revolutionaries took those ideas to the state and demanded their rights. With the liberation of this downtrodden class of individuals, tens of billions of them, we would be enacting a revolution that granted freedom and rights to the most amount of oppressed creatures.It is something very terrible to imagine. The right to divorce, in many cultures and many religions, is a right that has been given strictly to the husband alone and not to the wife. In this new society, with the property relations completely reorganized, women could expect the same out of men. Food was more common and work was not, to my understanding, as brutish as it would be for the African slaves. Political autonomy, the belief that a people have the right to be the ones to decide the policies and laws that regulate their life, was a belief that was advanced by every person who held liberation as the greatest act and believed that revolt was the greatest merit of any citizen. At this moment, we are in a world that is enveloped in Free Trade policy. It was once commonplace to force laborers to stay inside of unventilated, hazardous work places, with their lives threatened every moment.
Yet, it is illegal to sleep in abandoned buildings that have no use. At least, we are still puzzled, until we read the history of other oppressed groups. Some breath with gills and are scaled. As propaganda flows through the streets and breaths in the air, the people become convinced that they are liberated by the dictator. No longer must we go through life thinking that a person can be forced to endure misery because of the gender that they had no decision in choosing. But, when we look to our land, what is it that we see? We see lands that are left uncultivated and untouched. For this reason, we will always have war, poverty, and misery in society. Monarchs and dictators, who had to answer to nobody. Call it whatever word you like.If we, as a society, are to eliminate the great cruelty and brutality that is being committed upon animalkind, then we would be taking a step not unlike the Feminists attacking sexism, not unlike the Abolitionists destroying slavery. In love affairs, a woman today governs herself and her own body; she is no longer the slave of a tyrant of a father, nor the property of a cruel and thoughtless husband. So many societies today have accepted the disgusting, crude, and ruthless idea that animals can exist in one form: as the property of mankind. Thusfar, we have two instances where we felt that it was necessary to completely crush, destroy, and completely rewrite the property relations of society. The reasons that I could offer would simply be ones that are well known to a people and a society that are familiar with the cruelty of this brutish and savaged institution. No longer will poverty wrack the ghetto and attack children. Those who defend Free Trade argue that the reason why poverty exists is because there is not enough Free Trade! What an absurdity! These economists sound like physicians from the 1600's, letting the blood of their patients. This may be called a system of Anarchy. Again, the argument of tradition reigns. As mothers and daughters, lovers and sisters, women today can feel free, as their position in society is something that they are allowed to control. Their minds are not at all different than those who govern them, so we must say this: every person must be justly recognized as an independent entity, allowed their own rights, their own liberties. Several centuries ago, slavery existed in the United States, but it was a form of racial slavery, of one race owning another race. "Why should anybody have the right to touch the property of anyone else?" it is asked of us, "Why should the people have any right to touch, to manipulate, to control, to operate, or to possess the means of production, which is the legal property of investors and entrepreneurs today?" These questions, I shall here answer. So much as we are Anarchists, we are also Communists. The fact that serfdom was common in Europe does not defend the idea of Feudalism. Only through a rulerless society will we have a society where each person is truly allowed to voice their opinion and govern the combination of mankind.Since many people in America today are descended from slaves, but are now free citizens, our society looks upon slavery as perhaps one of the most evil institutions. But even this system of a republic is still extremely ineffective. But, just as soon as we take in this fact, we are attacked with another observation: these animals, who are just as capable of thought and emotion as any human being, are being killed by the billions every year, on the plate, in the laboratory, in the crosshairs of a gun, in the fishing nets of ships. It is absolutely the opposite of what it should be, and it is necessary that a revolution should be made in it. The difference between a slave and a serf was not all that enormous. The ancient Sumerians believed and practiced slavery, as much as any ancient culture did. It was common practice that once a tribe conquered another tribe in warfare, the conquered became the slaves of the conqueror. You cannot say what laws should be enforced, what laws shouldn't Smart Home Relays Wholesalers be enforced. It is the property relations of that society which allow this. We have read and heard so many stories of slaves in the south being beaten, abused, raped, sold from their families, and exploited. I support this idea. While a bureaucracy might pose as a hurdle to the economy, a completely free market economy may be viewed as a wall that reaches to the heavens, impassable by those who love justice and freedom. Just as we have in the past, today we must cut these chains. The serfs, while they were considered to a large extent the property of their lords, were still somewhat free. There is a certain amount of diversity and disagreement in the political arena. When their bodies are damaged, or cut, or bruised, it gives them pain, and they express this pain, and their closest of kin in the animal world sympathizes with them. For a long time, for too long, many women believed that their place in life, "in home and hearth," was deserving. It endowed each and every person the right to do with their property what they would like. Feudalism was a term adopted by the French revolutionaries to classify those they opposed. Even in the United States, slaves were allowed to sell their goods, and use their money to buy their freedom, though this was susceptible to corruption by slavers. Not only does this apply to you in a dictatorship, but it applies to everyone who is not the dictator. It is a system that I am proposing and suggesting.Yet, with all of these reforms that have come in the system of Free Trade, there are still many of us who are dissatisfied. So, too, we read the history of women's liberation. A person cannot be born into the position of a lord or vassal, nor can someone be born into the oppressive situation of the serf."It is not charity but a right, not bounty but justice, that I am pleading for. In fact, it makes it all that much more appalling. No, they do not have any interest in it.For Desiring to Revolutionize Property Relations in Society?1 - Property Relations: A Historical LookIn a society that has been founded on the ideals of the Enlightenment, on the philosophes and the thinkers of centuries past, there is no skepticism as to why reason flourishes to some degree. As the one who creates these products of society, I feel that it is a matter of justice, that I am rewarded with what I create.7 - Ruled to RulerThe thinkers of the world who have openly adhered to the principles of kindness, truth, courage, and equity have done their best to eliminate oppressive relationships. The political philosophers of every era have offered their ideas and their observations on this matter. Men and women differ. Thoughts may be considered, but can never be accepted without reasoning. I think I can confidently say that there has never been a nation that has not had slavery, except perhaps with very few and very rare examples. While it is true that our own American government is based on the principles of just philosophers, our government is still tinged with the brutality of Fascism. Many of them, for a great deal of time, believed that the way things were are simply the ways things will always be -- a traditional argument of tradition.We would look at these arguments, with a few drops of suspicion, a bit of disgust, and ultimately, with a fervent zeal that what these men were telling us was lies. By destroying the chains and tearing down the walls, they helped to liberate the downtrodden. Those who agree with me have, effectively, agreed with revolutionizing the property relations of society. So long as an oppressed class exists, we must work to overthrow it. They become convinced that everything they are told is true, because they cannot find a history book that would tell them anything different. They have the guns, but they don't have the numbers. By granting women the rights that men have long afforded themselves, we are taking a step that is not much different than the serf attaining liberty, or the slave destroying his master." Whatever the reason for allowing these people to live in poverty, the Capitalist class orders the employed to build castles and palaces while a great portion of society cannot afford food to feed themselves! No matter how we look at it, we are living in a system that fosters perpetual poverty and misery.4 - Woman to ManWomen were afforded the right to vote in the United States in the year 1920. Rather than diminish the value of this quality, it actually surprises us with some beautiful and amazing truth: that these billions of animals all around the world are capable of culture, of understanding each other, of empathy and those characteristics of charity that we once only thought human..Why do I support the rights of animals, primarily their right to life and liberty? For the same reason that I support the rights of woman to be treated equally, the rights of slaves to become free citizens.
Whether or not these terms fit, is irrelevant. It is only by an ownership of the means of production by the public that the ills of a Capitalist society can be remedied. As it was a society of men who believed that women were simply a form of property, by destroying this belief and creating a system where no human person is property, we are reorganizing society. Every revolution of property relations in the past was based on the demands of justice, on the pleas for fairness and equity in society. With all of this known, when we look towards the rights of women, we can see plainly what may have eluded others. And, so too, when we look at the feudal society, we feel that it could not last. That is the property relations of such a society. The present state of civilization is as odious as it is unjust. So, too, this Communist revolution is based on revolutionizing the property relations of the collective of men and women. And this time, with much more ferocity. Among these arguments, we might hear the same claim that has supported every brutal and vicious movement, the argument that god condones what is going on -- essentially, the argument that only the kings and the lords and the knights and the vassals have the ear of god, and the peasants, the poor, and the oppressed are deaf towards any sense of justice. We want to convince them that the liberty they deserve is sacred and beautiful, vibrant and real. However, these progressive reforms that are being implemented into our system, as much as they seem to take hold, poverty, crime, and unemployment still manage to exist and infect millions of lives. And yet, our economic organization is that of Free Trade, something that seemed to liberate us once, now it only burdens us. We believed in liberating serfs because they are conscious individuals, they have pains and sufferings, they are capable of thought and emotion. By telling slaves that they no longer must answer to a well-dressed savage, we are essentially revolutionizing the property relations of such a society. A ruler is a ruler, elected or not. But, no, the state of things in Feudalist society are as unbearable as they are without any regard for justice, honor, or truth. In every part of the world, just as we can find some roots of slavery, we can find the roots of Sexism. And they start to believe, that nothing will ever change, as their brothers join the armed forces, as their sisters defend the government with an ignorant smile. As a people, we do not want to elect a person -- we want to vote for an idea! We must have a Democracy, where each person is allowed to choose the laws that are enacted. There is a large amount of poor people, and yet there is a large amount of untouched land and untouched buildings. When their patient dies a miserable death, they say, "It is because we did not let their blood enough. Intelligence might vary from highly articulate to basic. So it happens, that the arguments in the political arena follow a certain set of code, a certain informal rule: if an argument is to have merit, it must have evidence. We are not limiting the hours a week that a master can push his slaves. While I would not want this situation with any lover, I must say that for those women who want to live as homemakers, their rights are defended by their right to some of their husband's income. The most effective method of preventing poverty, unemployment, and misery is by reorganizing and rearranging society so that the public is in ownership of the means of production. The day would come when these property relations, and the government (the force) that supports them, would be smashed into oblivion. No longer will unemployment be caused by the megacorporations lack of interest in investment. We see so many people unemployed, starving, and without anything in their lives but loved ones. In doing so, we have crushed the property relations of previous societies and allowed a little bit of hope and freedom into the lives of those people. Yet, even after this date, women still had to fight the evils of Sexism. The Roman Empire practiced a form of slavery between natural born Romans and those who have no relatives from the country. Our leaders are elected, not born into place. When told the traditionalist argument, that the way things have been is the way things should be, they accepted it whole heartedly. Its essential definition is the transferring of wealth from one part of society to another, after the in-place rules of economics have given wealth to one member or another. In the slave societies, slaves are considered property. Every person is a thinking, conscious being, capable of the learning, feeling, suffering, and loving.In what argument, though, are we defending the rights of the serfs against the rights of the lords? Very bluntly, very simply, the argument that we are proposing is one on behalf of justice. Once their mind awakened to the injustice that was given to them, their hearts opened to the hope of liberation. The people become depressed and hopeless, as they must look around their terrible conditions.5 - Animal to HumanIt is my fortunate pleasure to inform my reader that the previous reforms have been successful, that their results have created a rich culture and have nurtured the spirit of liberty. Capitalists don't feel enough motivation to develop the land and feed the starving children. To completely overthrow the system of slavery, we are becoming revolutionaries. Rulers treat their subjects like property, because they believed they were simply property. Call it Communism. As early as the 1800's, John Stuart Mill and Emma Goldman worked as "radical Feminists," preaching the revolutionary idea that woman should be treated not as subordinantes, but as equals -- not as slaves, but as citizens. In some societies, such as the Etruscans, women were granted a place in society that was mutual to mankind. If we were to take the wealth of corporations, and put it under the control of the people, we would be violating the property relations of society! There is no doubt to this, as it is my intention to revolutionize the property relations of society. Call it planned economy. Both are liberating ideologies, mutually necessary to each other if we are ever to accomplish a lasting revolution. If we are without a ruler, we will still be under the threat of starvation by others. Serf and slave alike did what they could as independent agents of society to overthrow the current status quo. It is here that I speak of the rights and liberties of animal life. But, among these arguments, we will hear something else: the lords of the manor have the right to do what they like to the serfs, because it is their right to property that they are exercising.. It is irrelevant. Only by looking into the past can we see the mechanics of those previous governments. Revolution becomes the most obvious idea to any person who has a heart and mind, but then there is a great opposition to the freedom movement."-- Thomas Paine, "Agrarian Justice"A better world is possible. We have, again and again and again, made our assault on the system of Free Trade. It is a matter of justice, not one of charity. We believe that the property relations of the feudal state were without justice. Slavery, in all of its forms, in the various regions and cultures and nations that it was practiced in, always differed. The serfs were raised and brought up in a world that taught them that, the way things are, is the way things should be.Anyone who saw the misery, the absolute wretched poverty, the injustice of this system, would come to the conclusion that there was a time limit on Feudalism. Cities would become overpopulated and unsanitary, working conditions would become unsafe and dangerous, and the people would continuously be told: work hard today, because heaven awaits you tomorrow."There is no doubt that the laborers, the workers, the proletariat of the world have come under attack by the daemons of the elite class. Even though they were awarded the right to vote, they still were paid unequally and treated by society unfairly. The property rights of the people as they exist today I shall call property relations.3 - Slave to MasterSlavery is a cruel, brutish system which has existed from the dawn of time and still exists today. Anarchy argues that we should never be ruled by a king, just as Communism argues that we should never be ruled by a CEO. It would require a complete revolution of the property relations as they exist. Issues like gun control and abortion are argued, each side tying together its different positions through sometimes inane connections and poor generalizations. Yes, so, they must be granted the rights that we have granted all humans. You cannot publicly defend any of your rights to those around you.The spirit of revolt would fill the spirit of the slave as much as it did the serf. When workers organized into unions, they were immediately arrested, many of them imprisoned for decades, denied the right to a public hearing.If we were to offer these arguments, though, to a Feudalist, to a vassal or a lord or a king of this era, the arguments we would receive would be plentiful.
In times past, this right was completely nonexistent. Perhaps one day, when the oppressive systems that have been imposed on man by man have been destroyed, all men can look at each other as kin, and they can view all animals as brothers and sisters in different forms -- perhaps, if the flame of liberation continues to grow and expand, if we still feel hope when we grab our chests, then one day, all men and women will regard each other as countrymen.The property relations of a society that uses slavery are not that far from the property relations of a feudal society. Today, the laws reflect the opinion of the laboring class stronger than the deceit of the workless Capitalists. It is believed by most historians that the system of Feudalism (or Manorialism) arose after the fall of the Roman Empire, with slaves living on large estates with their masters. Some show signs of high culture while others show just the smallest and most simple signs of communication. One of the primary methods that wealth redistribution is enacted is through heavy taxing of the rich, and in turn using that taxes to fund programs such as college funds, better schools, improved social security, among other social programs, so that the taxes of the rich go to the poorer parts of society in a more equitable way. Yes, I admit that these differences exist, but I am not making any plea to simply sidestep these differences. They thought, "When people come together to work for themselves and each other, society will collapse, we will lose power, and our lives will become miserable and wretched." No, these differences must be embraced, just like the differences between the white and black humans must be embraced. Yet, when we look at the essential parts of this reform, it is in fact a revolution. That is to say, the farms that harvest the food, the mines that bring up the metal ore, the factories that manufacture the products, the stores that distribute the goods, and the vehicles that transport the value created by society, all of these things should be owned publicly. The other creatures of the world are given fins, paws, and claws instead of hands. Yet, no Capitalist has ever put them to work on these empty fields. Perhaps they feel they are "wealthy enough," or that "society can fend for its own. And each citizen of this combination of men and women has their own interests, their own desires, their own concerns, their own ideals, their own thoughts. As humane and gentle thinkers, we look to Sexism and we see women who are treated poorly, who are given fewer rights than men; we see women being treated like second class citizens in a society that they are responsible for helping to build.Yet, there is still something that must be realized in this. So it happens, that we believe in the rights of animals, and oppose every form of animal exploitation, whether it is the eating of flesh food, or the purchasing of products tested on animals. We believe that each and every person should be endowed to the same rights and privileges. The dictator is hailed as the liberator of the people, and nothing else, because any newspaper that publishes even a slightly divergent opinion is arrested, destroyed, attacked. It would be the system of Free Trade and Capitalism. Call it Socialism. Those who oppose it include Fascists and Totalitarians, but their numbers are dwindling still. The argument of the working has been, and always will be, this: "I am the worker. Just as public as the roads, the railroads, the highways, the utility (water and electricity) companies, and parks are publicly owned, so shall the means of production be owned by the public. Husbands beating wives to "teach" or "punish" them was considered a just act, as it was considered their property. In doing this, we are -- like every other case -- not just reforming, but totally revolutionizing the property relations of society. I firmly hold to the belief that wealth redistribution is, in fact, ineffective. It was not the intention of the Rationalist philosophers to say that reason leads all men to the same conclusions, but only that every conclusion or position must be guarded with evidence, reasoning, and logic. We have read the testimony of Frederick Douglass with watered eyes and a deep heart. Those very delicate and gentle parts of our psyche that we have considered for so long to be what made us unique, actually, are in a fully developed state in the other animals of the planet. Prior to the development of highly advanced machinery and manufacturing plants, this system have some effective value in eliminating the misery of the people and granting the people some rights. If we were to imagine the toils and the labors of the serf class, we see essentially a group of people with few rights.

Using a cotton swab dipped in a bit of this solution, gently clean the inner ear.Checking for Ticks & FleasTicks are nasty little arachnids (they're eight-legged creatures like spiders, and therefore are not insects) that will latch onto your dog's skin and make its blood their meal ticket. The fleas themselves look like bits of brown rice.Washing your dog is important, but not as important as some people think. The best place to look for these bugs in under the collar or on the dog's underbelly, buried in the fur. The presence of fleas can be betrayed by the sight of their droppings on the dog's coat.
It is also a good time to perform some other necessary "dog Terminal Blocks Suppliers maintenance" such as cleaning the ears, checking for ticks and fleas, and brushing the teeth.. Over time the bodies of these short-lived creatures build up and form a black, dirty substance. And the result will be clean ears and the avoidance of potential infection and earaches in the dog. They are most common in wooded areas, but your dog should be checked for them regularly because they can carry a number of diseases. Although most of them don't like to be washed, they will appreciate the contact and attention that they receive from their owners during a bath.
They can't simply be picked off of the dog like ticks can, but finding them will let you know its time to start the dog on a program to control and eliminate the insects.Fleas can be found in the same places, under the fur. If found they can be removed with tweezers. The dog should have its own toothbrush and special toothpaste designed for dogs. Healthy dogs actually don't need to be washed all that often, but humans prefer to bathe them so that they have a more pleasing smell and appearance. Dogs can easily get ear mites, small insects which live in the ears and feed of the waxy secretions there. They're about an eighth of an inch long. Doggie bath time is a good time to spend with the dog, however.

Make sure you brush the back teeth in small circles, the same way you would your own, and brush up and down the length of the "pointy" canine teeth.

Megosztás a facebookonI've always liked to make gadgets and gizmos that have some function, either useful or not so useful. It started with the simple things that many kids make - slingshots, a simple bow and arrow, a toy boat. Occasionally I made more involved items such as a canoe and a dune buggy. Then there was the grass hut - 12 feet across, octogonal in shape, and thatched top to bottom with a thick layer of grass. I built it in a remote location, near a stipmine filled with water. Hauled the cut grass in a 1972 Volkswagon convertible with the top down. Piled the grass high in the back seat. It must have taken a dozen trips back and forth from a nearby hay field.
Simple things appeal to me more than costly homemade items. A small project lets me pursue an interest without interfering with other goals. A project with a small amount of time invested seems more like entertainment.So now when I don't feel motivated to do more practical things I often turn to an idea about some device or other that I've wanted to try making but never got around to.I can recall many such improvised devices that gave me satisfaction and enjoyment. Each project gives me something to be proud of and relief from the tedium that often must be endured with more practical endeavors.Ideas for things to make come from many places.
Most often the idea comes from some need. I do a lot of keying of text using a computer keyboard. I tend to keep the room temperature a bit cool, cool enough that my hands become uncomfortable. I ended up rigging a length of electrical heating tape wound in a large coil-shape to surround the keyboard. Tying the heat tape to a large piece of cardboard keeps it in place. It does a nice job of keeping my hands warm. I can leave the room temperature set where I want it.

Megosztás a facebookon"Suspension," when discussing cars, refers to the use of front and rear springs to suspend a vehicle's "sprung" weight. The springs used on today's cars and trucks are constructed in a variety of types, shapes, sizes, rates, and capacities. Types include leaf springs, coil springs, air springs, and torsion bars. These are used in sets of four for each vehicle, or they may be paired off in various combinations and are attached by several different mounting techniques. The suspension system also includes shocks and/or struts, and sway bars. Back in the earliest days of automobile development, when most of the car's weight (including the engine) was on the rear axle, steering was a simple matter of turning a tiller that pivoted the entire front axle. When the engine was moved to the front of the car, complex steering systems had to evolve.
The modern automobile has come a long way since the days when "being self-propelled" was enough to satisfy the car owner. Improvements in suspension and steering, increased strength and durability of components, and advances in tire design and construction have made large contributions to riding comfort and to safe driving. Cadillac allegedly produced the first American car to use a steering wheel instead of a tiller. Two of the most common steering mechanisms are the "rack and pinion" and the standard (or recirculating-ball) systems that can be either manual or assisted by power. The rack and pinion was designed for sports cars and requires too much driver muscle at low speeds to be very useful in larger, heavier cars. However, power steering makes a heavy car respond easily to the steering wheel, whether at highway speeds or inching into a narrow parking place, and it is normal equipment for large automobiles.
The suspension system has two basic functions, to keep the car's wheels in firm contact with the road and to provide a comfortable ride for the passengers. A lot of the system's work is done by the springs. Under normal conditions, the springs support the body of the car evenly by compressing and rebounding with every up-and-down movement. This up-and-down movement, however, causes bouncing and swaying after each bump and is very uncomfortable to the passenger. These undesirable effects are reduced by the shock absorbers. The above information is directly from the Auto Insight program, which you can buy online from AutoEducation.com. Common Problems: Shocks and struts can wear out and affect handling. If you car bounces excessively over bumps and leans China Smart Home Relays Manufacturers hard in corners, your shocks could be warn.
Look behind the wheel for the shock or strut and look for leaking oil. This is a sure sign of a worn shock or strut. Ball joints. Ball joints wear and can cause your car to wander while driving down the road. This is dangerous as they can separate and cause you to lose control. Preventive maintenance: Check your shocks or struts for leakage frequently. Also pay attention to how your car handles. If you notice the ride deteriorating take your car in to have the struts checked. Ball joints should be checked when your car is inspected, if not, have your mechanic check them at least twice a year. At each oil change make sure you or your mechanic lubricates the ball joints and any other suspension components. Some components cannot be lubricated as they are sealed from the factory.
