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.
