Art Blog

http://fanonite.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/james_heyma_sm.jpg

1. intention of the artist- The intention of the artist here is to demonstrate the way kids have changed, and how society is getting careless about what children do, and this has to change because kids are the future.
quality of the work- The quality of the work is good, it is not exactly a painting, but a picture, and the artist has got his message through.
response of the audience- I believe the artist is right, that generations nowadays are different than they used to be, and kids are doing things we never thought possible.

2. Immitation- I don't know of any immitation the artwork has.
Communication- Maybe this can communicate parents on the way they raise their children, and probably they should be more on top of what their kids do.
Education- It is education for us because we know how times are changing, and people do things we would never think possible. We can try to change the future.

Successful Human Science Experiment

Nanotech Robots Deploy Cancer..
1. Scientists from the California Institute of Technology placed RNA molecules in a specialized polymer robot with a chemical sensor. When the environment of a cancerous cell triggered the chemical sensor, the robot releases the RNA. The experiment helped to fight cancer, and to reduce tumors in patients.

2. They experimented it on three people with melanomas, who recieved the RNA-load nanoparticles intravenously four times, for about thirty minutes, for three weeks. After that time, these patients had samples taken and the results showed that the melanomas had presence of RNA, and a reduction in tumor gene expression.

3. The outcome is that scientists are coming up with a cure to tumors, and that there are ways to reduce them. What this tells us about humans, is that after a very long time after hearing about unethical science experiments, and the awful outcomes they have, we can see that not all human science experiments are bad, and some of them have a very good purpose.

ethical or unethical?

Child Prostitution

1) Thailand-Many thai women believe that prostitution reduces the incidence of rape.
2) USA- Child prostitution is unethical, and sometimes the children do it by their own choice, and to our surprise, more boys sell themselves than girls.
3) Brazil- Brazil is known for having the worst sex trafficking record after Thailand. It is unethical, although some girls do it because they can't survive so they need money and prostitute themselves.

I think that Child Prostitution is an awful thing to do to children, but sometimes these children, mostly girls, have no other way to sustain themselves economically. Although this may be horrible, it really reduces starvation and other problems. I also consider it legal because a lot of the girls chose this way of life.
