PHANTOM LIMBS

yang pa — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 19:19:01 +0000

A phantom limb is a reality in an amputees mind. Evaluate a different situation where a reality only exists in a persons mind. Have you every experienced a reality that only existed in your mind.

A PHANTOM LIMB… SOMETHING THAT IS RELATED TO THIS IS A LOT OF THINGS. AND MANY OF THIS THINGS ARE RELATED TO THAT OF SENSORY PERCEPTIONS. THAT IS A MAJOR TOK KNOWLEDGE ISSUE THAT IS MAYBE COMMONLY USE FOR THIS SITUATION. IT IS JUST SORT OF WEIRD AND INTERESTING, BUT YET SCARY HOW THIS PHANTOM LIMB THING WORKS. THE FUNCTIONING OF YOUR BRAIN. IT IS SO NOT COOL AT TIMES.

PLAYING MIND GAMES WITH YOUR MIND I GUESS. I JUST GOT OT SAY WHEN YOU THINK THAT IT IS YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM PLAYING THE TRICK ON YOU, THAN TODAY, IT TURN OUT OT BE YOUR BRAIN. SO WHAT I HAVE LEARN, IS THAT IF YOUR BRAIN IS DEAD… DOES IT MEAN THAT YOU’RE DEAD TOO? CAUSE YOUR BRAIN CONTROL PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING RIGHT??

THINKING OUTSIDE OF YOUR PERCEPTION

We’re all going to die someday.

OH MY GOODNESS. WE ARE GOING TO ALL DIE SOMEDAY. THAT SOMEDAY IS STILL UNKNOWN BUT WE KNOW THAT IT IS ON THE WAY. EVEN IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SINGLE CLUE ABOUT IT, I DO. HOW DO I KNOW THAT WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE SOMEDAY? WELL I AM NOT A WALKING DEAD OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCE SLEEPING IN A COFFIN OR BEING UNDERGROUND FOR SOMETIME, BUT IT IS STILL KNOWABLE. HOW I KNOW THIS, IS FROM THE FUNCTION OF OUR BODY. HOW IT IS THAT WE ARE GETTING WEAKER AND WEAKER FROM TIME TO TIME. IF NOT, LOOK AROUND YOU, PEOPLE ARE ALSO DYING TOO. YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT IS GOING TO LIVE FOREVER. EVERYONE LIVE AND EVERYONE DIE. IT IS THE CYCLE OF LIFE. I THINK THAT IS RIGHT…. RIGHT….

PROPAGANDA

Why does nearly all propaganda take the form of art?

TAKING THE FORM OF ART, IT IS A LOT MORE AFFECTIVE UPON THE AUDIENCE. WHO IN THE WORD COULD RESIST THAT OF ART? THERE ARE MAJOR THINGS THAT AN ART COULD DO. WITH ITS USE OF COLORS, IT ATTRACT THE READERS’ EYES. ART IS EVERYWHERE ANYWAYS, SO WHAT EVER YOU TRY TO DO OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, YOU CAN NOT ESCAPE. YOU ARE TRAP IN A WORLD OF ART, AND SINCE IT IS THERE, MIND ARE WELL BUT IT INTO GOOD USE. =P

NORTH KOREA AND TOK

yang pa — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 17:57:34 +0000

Identify a knowledge issue associated with North Korea? Justify it as a TOK knowledge issue.

THE ISSUE WITH NORTH KOREA, IN RELATION TO THE KNOWLEDGE ISSUES OF THIS CLASS. ONE OF THE MAJOR ISSUE IS GOT TO BE THAT OF HISTORY. WE KNOW THAT NORTH KOREA IS A COUNTRY OF ISOLATION AND VERY TO THEMSELVES. ALTHOUGH THAT IS, THERE ARE STILL TIMES THAT THERE SHOULD BE A HISTORY THAT IS REASONABLE. TEACHING THE YOUNG CHILDREN ABOUT NOTHING BUT THE HISTORY OF THEIR GREAT BELOVED LEADER, WHAT IS THE USE OF HAVING HISTORY PERIOD. IT IS JUST… NOT HISTORY ANYMORE. IF THAT IS WHAT THE NORTH KOREAN WANT TO TEACH THEIR YOUNGSTERS, MIND AS WILL JUST START CALLING IT BIOGRAPHY. HAHAHA.

OMG ANOTHER KNOWLEDGE THERE IS IS GOT TO BE THAT OF ART. WHO IN THE WORLD WOULD LOVE TO, NOT TO MENTION ENJOY SEEING THE SAME FACE EVERYWHERE YOU GO. THAT IS JUST SO… IRRITATING. NO MATTER WHAT OR WHERE YOU TURN TO LOOK AT, BOOM. THE FACE OF YOUR DEAR LEADER. THAT IS JUST SO NOT COOL. 1984 ALL OVER AGAIN. OMG!

THERE COULD BE A LOT MORE KNOWLEDGE THAT CAN BE TIED INTO THIS, BUT I THINK I HAVE SAID ENOUGH ABOUT THIS TOPIC. OS UNTIL NEXT TINE, SO LONG.

ETHICS

yang pa — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 17:50:14 +0000

Can ethical questions be quantified? Describe an example or counterexample.

ETHICS, IN MY OPINION IS SOMETHING THAT IS JUST OUT THERE. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IS ETHICS REALLY. FOR IT IS REALLY ARGUABLE. WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WRONG. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE NO LIMITS TO. THERE IS ALWAYS A RIGHT AND A WRONG TO ONE SIDE OF A STORY. NO ONE IS RIGHT AND NO ONE CAN BE WRONG. EVERYTHING CAN ALWAYS STILL BE CHANGED AND REWRITE. NOTHING IS QUITE STILL THE SAME.

LOL AM I EVEN ON TOPIC?

MATHEMATICS

yang pa — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 17:47:21 +0000

Are mathematical constants (π, e, the golden ratio, etc.) natural or man made? Pick one and explain.

I THINK THAT THE CONSTANTS OF MATHEMATICS ARE PRETTY MUCH MAN MADE. ALTHOUGH IT IS PART OF NATURE, WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF MEN, WHAT IS THERE OF MATH. ESPECIALLY THE 3.14 SYMBOL OF THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF A CIRCLE. THAT, IT IS A PART OF NATURE, BECAUSE IT IS BELIEVED THAT ALL OF THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF CIRCLES ARE GOING TO END UP WITH THIS SAME NUMBER. THAT IS A PART OF NATURE, BUT THE THING IS THAT MAN IS THE ONE THAT PUT IT DOWN. THE ONE WHO THINK ABOUT IT. ALTHOUGH OVERALL, MATHEMATIC CONSTANTS ARE A PART OF NATURE. IT IS NATURALLY MADE, BUT NO ONE KNOWS UNTIL MEN CAME ALONG ONTO EARTH.

FUNNY

THIS IS SO FUNNY, I KNOW THAT WHEN GULLY READS THESE, HE WILL YELL AT ME. FOR NOT TAKING MY TIME WITH THESE TOPICS, BUT EH. I AM BEING HONEST. ALTHOUGH I DO NOT TAKE THAT MUCH TIME, I WAS BEING REALLY HONEST, THAT WAS ALL THAT CAME INTO MY MIND WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT. AND HONESTLY LIKE HALF OF THIS WORDS I DO NOT KNOW OR UNDERSTAND IT THAT MUCH. OOPS. SORRY GULLY. I WILL DO BETTER NEXT TIME. I PROMISE.

HUMAN SCIENCE

yang pa — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 15:38:54 +0000

Is religion a human science? Explain.

WHAT IS RELIGION?

HUM… IS RELIGION A HUMAN SCIENCE… I AM NOT SO SURE ABOUT THAT. I GUESS IT DEPENDS UPON WHAT THE SITUATION IS. OMG WHAT IS HUMAN SCIENCE AGAIN. OMG.

ART

yang pa — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 15:38:06 +0000

Describe an example of when analyzing art diminished the value of the art.

ART, WHEN I THINK OF ART I THINK OF PAINT AND COLOR AND LOVE AND PASSION. IT SHOULD BE DONE OUT OF YOUR OWN WILL, NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE ASSIGNED TO IT OR YOU ARE JUST DOING IT OUT OF PRESSURE. ALTHOUGH I AM NOT AN ART PERSON, ART IS STILL ART. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I LOOK AT THE ART AROUND ME AND THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I AM CONFUSED AT WHY THE ARTIEST PUT IN THIS DETAIL AND THAT. BUT I GUESS THAT THERE IS A USE FOR IT IN THE PAINTING OR DRAWING, MAYBE THAT IS WHY THEY PUT IT IN THE PAINTING.

EMOTION

yang pa — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 15:35:24 +0000

Describe an example of when fear caused you to reason irrationally.

THIS IS A NORMAL THING FOR ALL PEOPLE. YOU AN ME AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT IS AROUND US. WHEN WE FEAR SOMETHING, WE ARE OBVIOUSLY HAVING TO REASON OUT OF FEAR. THERE ARE FEAR OUT OF EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE DOING, OR WHAT YOU HAD PUT YOURSELF INTO DOING. AN EXAMPLE THAT I CAN GIVE, I AM NOT QUITE SO SURE. TO BE HONEST A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT I HAVE DONE, I DO NOT REALLY CONSIDER IT OUT OF FEAR, BUT THAT OF CURIOSITY.
