The Great Ape Project proposal
Zoos have <font style="background-color: yellow;">existed</font> along decades as places where you can spend a day with your family and disconnect from routine. However, animals living in captivity have their enclosed life seen through windows and walls. Have you ever asked yourself about their days? It wouldn’t absolutely be the life neither you want nor your family. These animals won’t know what is hunting, or develop their wildness in their native ecosystems, or, in the end, live as animals properly.
In this sense, The Great Ape Project has been fighting for a UN Declaration of Rights of Great Apes. This organization advocates to conferring them legal rights namely their liberation, or the prohibition of torture. The most common question about this concession arises when we compared animals with humans. Are we crossing the line between us? How an ape is going to share my rights?
Interestingly, the most consicence question is a paradox too. Of course we are not being compared with an animal in legal issues. We are only demonstrating how our knowledge and judgement have evolved so far, until we can preserve other species, living with them, protecting against people who only yield the profit using animals lives.
Apart from this ethical aspect, there is a deeper feeling of fraternity when we stare the eyes of prisoner animals. We sense sadness, depression, a life wasted. If I had lived in freedom, how’d have my life been? This connection is not a hoax. No need to say this connection is real, and when you experience it, your mind confused. Take your time and imagine a Lyon, or a bull, living fenced. Do you still consider The Great Ape Project proposal is mad/ See yourself in these animal eyes.
Thus, I strongly believe these rights must be implemented worldwide. We will have gained a better world, where no superior specie is in danger.0 votedApril 2, 20170Short story
Ok, if a story then the story, but sorry for my English before. Last night I heard a strange noise. I was sleeping when I heard sounds like "tik tik.....tik tik". at first, I thought it was a dream. But I found it very strange. I opened my eyes but sound REMAINED. I went around my flat and FOUND nothing but sound still continued. I said stop to myself. I listenED and figured out sound was FROM behind a window. I opened a window and saw a OLD/LOW BUDGET/CHEAP car on THE parking with car alarm ON. But the car battery was almost OUT and the alarm DID NOT HAVE power for creating a loud sound BUT SOUND like "tik tik.....tik tik". I calmed down and went to my warm bed. This is my a little real story)))0 votedMarch 31, 20172Passengers
I <font style="background-color: yellow;">watched </font>"Passengers" tonight. It was a nice movie. Jennifer Lawrence is an amazing actress.
The <font style="background-color: yellow;">plot</font> is about a man, Jim, waked up from a hibernation pod in a spaceship and lived alone for one year. The other passengers and crews were still <font style="background-color: yellow;">asleep</font> in hibernation pods. After a year of isolation, <font style="background-color: yellow;">in no company of anybody</font>. He decided to wake up another passenger, Aurora.
The story was very interesting. This movie is not a sci-fi movie but a romantic movie.
I can imagine it was a hard time for Jim. It was not easy to live alone for almost one year. Especially in air space.
I like this movie. Because it is very provocative.. I believe no one can live alone without anyone's company for a long time. No matter how strong your mind is.0 votedMarch 30, 20171THE IMPORTANT EQUIPMENT IN MY HOME
A few months ago, my family moved into a new flat. My brother-in-law sent me a vacuum cleaning robot as a gift. He said our flat is too big to clean. We have 4 <font style="background-color: yellow;">bedrooms</font> and 2 big living <font style="background-color: yellow;">rooms</font>, <font style="background-color: yellow;">overall size is</font><strike> total</strike> up to 150 square <font style="background-color: yellow;">meters</font>.
We never <font style="background-color: yellow;">used</font> vacuum cleaning robot before. However, we use it everyday now. Because it is very convenient and can help us<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;"> to</font></strike> cut many time. We just press the switch, sit and <font style="background-color: yellow;">take a rest</font> while enjoying a cup of tea. In <font style="background-color: yellow;">contrast</font>, we <font style="background-color: yellow;">spent</font> about 30 minutes <font style="background-color: yellow;">cleaning</font> our house previously . We<font style="background-color: yellow;"> felt</font> very tired after work, so we are not willing to do <font style="background-color: yellow;">hoursework</font> any more.
Thanks for my brother's gift,the vacuum robot is an important equipment in my family now and it give us more private time to do a<font style="background-color: yellow;">nything</font> we like.0 votedMarch 10, 20171Spring is here!!!!
I am very happy because it seems spring is here and<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike> </strike>winter is over</font>, although officially, spring will start on 20th March this year in North <font style="background-color: yellow;">semisphere.</font> It doesn't always start on 21st March, it depends on when<font style="background-color: yellow;"> daylight time is equal to night time</font>, and <font style="background-color: yellow;">there is a shift between 20th and 23rd March</font>.
The weather is<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;"> being</font></strike> warm, even hot, this days in Spain. It has reached twenty five centigrade degrees but it is not usual in March, this temperature is usually <font style="background-color: yellow;">the same as it is</font> in May. So, it is likely that it will<font style="background-color: yellow;"> go</font> down in next days may<font style="background-color: yellow;"> go</font> up to fifteen or eighteen degrees but it is also a good temperature to go out for a walk or to have a drink outside.
I was enjoying the warm weather yesterday because I had to do some work <strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">and</font></strike> instead of siting in my office, I put a table and a chair in my house balcony and I was sunbathing in a t-shirt at the same time <font style="background-color: yellow;">when</font> I was working<font style="background-color: yellow;"> on</font> the computer.0 votedMarch 10, 20171
