The intention of the author is to look at the world through a combination of "feet on the ground" reality and "head in the clouds" aspiration. Also, the quality of the art work does not demonstrate that the artist is highly skilled. This is because the art work does not show any art skills, it looks quite simple to do, meaning that there has not to be a Michaelangelo to be able to do it. In my opinion, I dont see this as an art work because it is something that if it were not enclosed in glass it would be considered a work of art. In this piece of art, the artist is imitating the beauty of nature, animals. The artist is trying to transmit or convey the importance of nature and specially the animals in which many people dont realize how special they are. Last, this art work teaches that there are many ways of expressing art, art is not only painting but there art is also sculptures and many more things.

The experiment Magic Number Seven: Plus or Minus Two, by George Miller, attempted to discover what were our limits on our capacity to process information. He recorded information from many small experiments that tested how well an individual could recognize a tone. Seven was the average of tones any individual could recognize with minimal error. George Miller theorized that this number represents the number of items we are able to hold in our short term memory at any given time. Recent studies have demonstrated that people are able to group items in short term memory, which is being able to hold more individual items, so even there the total if groupings are considered units, the number comes out to 7.

Assisted Suicide, Euthanasia



1. Switzerland (1941, physician and non-physician assisted suicide only);
2. Belgium (2002, permits 'euthanasia' but does not define the method;
3. Netherlands (voluntary euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide lawful since April 2002 but permitted by the courts since l984).

In England and Wales there is a possibility of up to 14 years imprisonment for anybody assisting a suicide.France does not have a specific law banning assisted suicide, but such a case could be prosecuted under 223-6 of the Penal Code for failure to assist a person in danger.

I my opinion, assisted suicide is a way of ending a person's life, which is something bad to do. Under God's beliefs, suicide is very bad because you murder yourself, and it is a sin to kill and it is much worst to kill yourself because God is the inly one who decides when and how you will die.

Political Cartoon

Origin:This cartoon makes me think of an arabic country, also reminds me of muslims

Purpose: To show the people that Muhammad's ideas are not the correct ones, such as kidnapping and suicide bombings

Value: This is important for the muslims and to their perception of Muhammads ideas

Limitations: Shows the point of view of those who are against Muhammeds, biased

Mathematics

On this picture you can see various ferns. Ferns are a great example of fractals because they are self-organizing and the they repeat over and over again.

Fractals always seem to mimic oceans and plants and planets and atoms and internal organs and art. This video shows a great variety of fractals demonstrating the different forms or figures they have.

High altitude Experiment- Nazi

> In early 1942, the Nazis came up with various unethical experiments. Prisoners at Dachau concentration camp were used by Rascher in experiments to aid German pilots who had to be released at high altitudes. This was used to simulate conditions at altitudes of up to 20,000 m. There were some rumors stating that Rascher performed vivisections on the brains of victims who survived one of the first experiments. Of the 200 people, 80 died outright, and the others were executed.
> The experiment created by the Nazis is really unethical because no scientific knowledge is worth a human life and specially is its going to be used for war or for selfish purposes. Also, because it is extremely painful and violates the human rights, so obviously it can not be done.

Perception

1. I believe that doubt is the key to perception because if there were no doubts, we would never question anything so then we would never create our own opinions or a sense of perception towards something.
2. A cultural example of this is the perception of other countries towards Honduras. There are people form various cuntries in the world, which dont know where Honduras is until they noticed about the political problems we have here and how insecure it is. Once I met some people in the other part of the world, and when they heard I was from Honduras, they were amazed. First of all, some of them asked me where was such country located, and some of them thought it was a little country somewhere in Africa while others said it was a such dangerous and poor country somewhere in America. Unfortunately, this is how people think of our country, but as mentioned it is incredible what the foreign people's perception of Honduras is.
3. Everyday in school, we are constantly doubting things in order to prove them and to create a certain idea of what that and try to be 100% percent of it, especially a sense of perception on every subjects. For example in Math, we are constantly doing group works for practicing hard problems, so we always doubt before turning in the work we did because we were not sure about many things. This is a situation of doubtness commonly seen in such subject, math, because it is a very hard subject to always be 100% sure of every answer. So, without doubtness there would be no knowledge.
4. A personal experience would be when I was told that a friend was saying bad things behind my back, I would not believe it because I had known her all my life. But, then I started to doubt this because even though I had known her my whole life I did know she tends make bad coments about her other friends and many people. This is because I perceive she is a good person but still proved me wrong.
