Kiwi Swine flu strikes back...

New Zealand hospitals have been flooded this week with people being admitted with suspected swine flu, bringing the years total to 222 cases.

Suspected swine flu is the reason 58 people have been admitted to hospital this week. It brings the total to 222 admitted this year. This from a population of 4.2 million people.

The Ministry of Health says the number of calls to Healthline also continues to increase, and last week 22.4% of all calls were related to influenza-like illness.

That is the highest rate seen this year, but it is still well below the 35.8% seen at this time last year.

CFP/CNPJ

I just ordered webhosting service for the diamond website that I have been working on. On the registration page, they ask for all the normal things like name, address, phone number, etc. The only unusual item is a field for "CFP/CNPJ". I have no idea what that means and I left it blank. My brief Google search suggests that CNPJ might mean "Cadastro Nacional da Pessoa Jurídica", which is used by Brazilian companies as a type of identification number, but that does not seem in any way related to CFP.

The relationship among people of the different nations are not fruitful so far.why this relationship has not taken place yet? The mindset and barriers created among people for all these years by our so called Religious heads,Super Politicians,Informatively educated of stored knowledgeable Scientists. These people still want to create more and more systems among people.Seeing System created already all failed and want to make more viable system again.why?

Fly Leg Eyelashes

Flylashes from Jessica Harrison on Vimeo.


From the artist:
Just to add some further info about this work - the piece was a video installation as part of a series of works looking into genetic manipulation, experimentation and xenotransplantation - about balancing our scientific and medical developments with our cultural strive for perfection, at the same time exploring and acknowledging society's underlying fear and general mistrust of modified bodies. Flylashes was part of a small series of works using fly parts with other materials, playing with the myth of the chimera in different formats. The work obviously pushes the boundaries of what is and what is not acceptable, in its creation and use of animal parts - the flies came from maggots bought from a fishing tackle shop that were destined for the end of a fishing line. They hatched in my studio, flew around quite a lot and after a few days died naturally. At this point I used the legs and wings for explorative sculptural purposes, in the case of Flylashes, gluing them to my own eye using eyelash glue. The work dates from 2006, during a time I was doing in-depth research into the issues surrounding genetic manipulation and the use of animals and humans in testing - it is intended not as a call to pull apart flies to use as beauty enhancements, but a device to prompt questions about our thoughts and fears surrounding genetic manipulation and the integrity of the body.

Meaning of Life-Sixth Sense
Fri Aug 6, 2010 4:24:55 pm
by rravishanker
People say human beings have sixth sense and other living beings are not.Have you ever noticed that we are all having sixth sense?If yes, what are all this sixth sense you noticed? If not,why have not noticed it? Are they think analyzing external and assumes external is the real life which is anti Earth-wise living is the sixth sense?

Every Living beings born and die and also so the human being .
But all living beings lives with earth-wise except human beings.
May be we may say that we are having sixth sense.
Do you think the sixth sense is anti earth-wise living?

Have you ever thought about why this world is not in peace?
Have you ever analyzed regarding the above?

Now People forgot how to live earth-wise.Everywhere and in everything man follows and creates artificial living and hypnotize by themselves that they achieved all and also saying they are capable of creating and achieving all.
Is it true?
