A staircase wide enough for only one person, it's hard to imagine all the human misery that passed through the cramped spaces of this historic court house.

I am not into photojournalism but I will give it a stab. I will be posting pics of actual human remains from my home community. I am an Ojibway and the remains you will see are my ancestors. Back in the 1930's, Ontario Hydro and the Federal Government built a dam and then flooded our lands. more to come with each picture.
Bodies The Exhibition is a controversial exhibition showcasing preserved human bodies dissected to display bodily systems. That's a real human body in the picture.
You may want to read this from:
mysite.verizon.net/vzexqyla/anti-bodies-virtual-picket-li...
You may be convinced that BODIES...the Exhibition is immoral, unethical and surrounded by murky issues. But some people may be difficult to persuade. Below is a list of incorrect / misleading / worrisome statements that you may hear, followed by explanations of the truth regarding these topics.
________________________________________
Incorrect information: All of the people in the exhibit gave their consent and/or donated their bodies to science.
The truth: None of the people in BODIES...the Exhibition gave their consent to be exhibited or plastinated. None of them donated their bodies to 'medicine' or to 'science'.
Most people do not realize that there are several different plastinated corpse exhibits traveling around the world. While each presents bodies in a similar way, the source of the bodies for each exhibit is not the same.
Gunther von Hagens (BODYWORLDS' creator) states that all of the people displayed in the BODYWORLDS exhibits gave consent to be plastinated and exhibited. However, top Management members at Premier Exhibitions Inc. (promoter of BODIES...the Exhibition) admit up-front that NONE of the people in BODIES...the Exhibition gave consent to be plastinated or exhibited - this would be an impossibility because the corpses were unidentified and unclaimed and were acquired by the plastination plant from the Chinese police.
For reputable sources regarding this topic, see The Provenance of BODIES' Corpses and the Possible Connections with the Falun Gong section on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Incorrect information: All of the specimens in the Exhibition were obtained by Premier Exhibitions through the Dalian Medical University plastination laboratories in the People's Republic of China.
The truth: All of the specimens are controlled or leased by Dalian Hoffen Bio Technique Company Limited.
According to Premier's 2006 annual report,
"THIS EXHIBITION TOUR AGREEMENT is entered into as of the 24th day of January, 2006 by and between Premier Exhibitions 2005-ATL, Inc. (a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada and having its principal place of business at 3340 Peachtree Rd. NE, Atlanta, Georgia 30326 (“PREMIER”), and Dr. Hong-Jin Sui (“Dr. Sui”), a designer and supplier of all specimens referred to herein, and Dr. Shuyan Wang President of Dalian Hoffen Bio Technique Company Limited collectively referred to as (“DHBTL”) having a place of business in Dalian, China."
To read the full agreement, see: www.secinfo.com/dsvr4.v71s.d.htm
________________________________________
Misleading Information: The identity of each human body displayed in the exhibition is strictly confidential.
The Truth: In fact, the bodies displayed in the exhibition are unidentified.
The term 'confidential' implies that someone knows the identities of the bodies. Premier Exhibitions, Inc. has consistently stated up-front that all of the bodies displayed in the exhibition were unidentified and unclaimed. Premier is renting the cadavers and organs from China's Dalian Medical University, which acquired the unidentified, unclaimed corpses from police.
This fact is particularly troubling because in China, people who practice Falun Gong (a spiritual practice that is banned by the government) often refuse to reveal their names when arrested, in order to protect their families. Therefore, there is a large prison population of unidentified people, who remain 'unidentified' after death.
For reputable sources on this topic, see The Kilgour-Matas Reports and The Provenance of Bodies' Corpses sections on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Incorrect information: It is standard practice throughout the United States for unclaimed and unidentified bodies to be used by medical schools for educational purposes.
The truth: The majority of bodies used by medical schools come from consenting donors.
The use of unidentified bodies in U.S. medical school anatomy labs is not regulated at the Federal level. Therefore, there are few national statistics available with respect to this topic. However, a 2004 article in JAMA (the Journal of the American Medical Association), states that only 20% of US and Canadian medical schools still used unclaimed bodies in their anatomy laboratories.
Some states have laws which require all unidentified / unclaimed corpses to be buried.
For reputable sources regarding this topic, see The Legality of Plastinated-Corpse Exhibits section on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Worrisome Statement: Sworn affidavits, taken in the United States, have been provided declaring the legal and moral acquisition of the specimens within BODIES…The Exhibition. Affidavits have been provided by both Dr. Roy Glover, Chief Medical Advisor for BODIES…The Exhibition; and Dr. Hong Jin Sui, professor of anatomy and President of Dalian Medical University Plastination Co. LTD.
The Truth: There has been no independent investigation regarding the provenance of the corpses in BODIES...the Exhibition. The affidavits that Premier presents as assurances with respect to the corpses' origins are provided by the following two men:
Roy Glover - Roy Glover is not a medical doctor although, in this context, he is almost always referred to as "Dr. Roy Glover, Chief Medical Advisor." Glover holds a Ph.D. in Anatomy and is currently working as the Spokesman for the BODIES exhibit. He states that "the head of the lab at Dalian [Sui Hong Jin] is a longtime, trusted friend."
Sui Hong Jin - Sui Hong Jin is a former business associate of Gunther von Hagens, the inventor of the plastination process and the creator of the BODYWORLDS exhibits. Sui has faced allegations in the past of providing von Hagens with prisoners' corpses. He is currently the President of Dalian Medical University Plastination Co. LTD. which is supplying the plastinated corpses to Premier for their exhibits.
For reputable sources on this topic, see The Corpse Supplier and The Provenance of BODIES' Corpses sections on The Issues page of this website.
_______________________________________
Misleading information: The human bodies are being used appropriately, in accordance with domestic and international law.
The truth: There are virtually no international, U.S. federal or state laws regulating this type of exhibit.
Even where there are relevant laws, it is not clear that they are being followed. In Tampa FL, Premier Exhibitions, Inc. and the Museum of Science and Industry disregarded the rulings of the state Anatomical Board and the state Attorney General that would have prevented the exhibit from opening, and opened the exhibit two days early, before the ruling could be enforced.
If 'domestic law' refers to Chinese domestic law, note that the term 'law' in China has a very different connotation than it does in the U.S. Also note that BODIES has been touring since 2005. Until July of 2006, selling organs was legal in China. Organ transplantation is an extremely lucrative industry in China. Those who are profiting the most via the organ-trafficking trade are often directly connected to the Chinese government / military. Selling organs was deemed illegal specifically to placate the International Olympic Committee - China will be hosting the Olympics in 2008 - but the new regulations are not enforced.
For reputable sources regarding this topic, see The Legality of Plastinated-Corpse Exhibits and The Kilgour-Matas Reports sections on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Misleading Statement: None of the people displayed in the exhibit were killed specifically to be displayed in the exhibit.
The truth: This is not a 'fact' in the scientific sense - it may be true, but there is no proof that it is true. Again, no one really knows where the bodies in the exhibit come from. Staff members at a Falun Gong detention center in the same Chinese province as Dalian Medical University have admitted to 'supplying' organs for transplantation. (These organs were removed from live Falun Gong prisoners). It is not completely unbelievable that they might also supply them for exhibit purposes.

Misleading Statement: "Educational tools that can teach children." - New York Times (source: Carnegie Science Center advertisement) Note: As of the end of November, this quote was removed from the ad.
The truth: This quote suggests that the NY Times endorses the exhibit, however the quote is taken out of context.
The statement above is taken from the 11/18/05 NY Times article, "Cadaver Exhibition Raises Questions Beyond Taste" articles.news.aol.com/news/_a/cadaver-exhibition-raises-q...
Andrew Jacobs, the author of the article, is quite critical of BODIES...the Exhibition, discussing the Chinese government's history of "recycling the organs of executed prisoners" and Dalian University's history of supplying questionably-obtained corpses to other exhibits. The quote used in the advertisement comes from the following sentence: "Playing down the sensationalism, Premier executives use the word 'specimen' to describe the exhibits and emphasize their value as educational tools that can teach children about human physiology and help adults learn how to lead healthier lives."
Trent Touchstone, Tej Kandola, Alyssa Albin, Mamie McIntyre, and Briana Voss set up a booth in the cafeteria at MCC-Longview to raise awareness on human trafficking. English 102 instructor Alan Douglas stopped by to congratulate his students for going above and beyond and a job well done.

Most of the friends on the flickr must be thinking that what the hell Imran's doing here with this human skull, actually it''s not real, it's made of mterial and it's used as an ashtray in my room, just a lesson for the friends that if they don;t give up that habit, it'd not take much time be like that skull.
Enjoy.

My youngest daughter Natasha has a bit of thing about bugs (her favourite book when she was small was The Very Hungry Caterpillar) she loves insects and she can spot them from quite a distance. She really outdid herself today though spotting this tiny little caterpillar on some Ivy in the garden. It was only about 2 or 3 mm in length. It even looks tiny on her little hand.
Taken for June 09 MSH - Human Nature. Well it's human nauture for children to pick up insects, and it's a picture of a human holding nature, lol.
