you really think its about business don't you....that is sad and shows your limited undertanding of Art and the motivation of an artist.
An artist communictes message with imagery.
If I wanted to make money I would pint a photo canvas of a horse and paint over it a many of the so called racing artists do to appeal to people of limited understanding of what art is about .
Everyone who knows me know I am not motivated by money or business and my imagery
and my posts here are about but passion. Something you wouldn't understand.

APART FROM STATISTCAL EVIDENCE THERE IS NO SCIENTFIC PROOF OF ANY LINK TO PREMATURE DEATH.
yes there a lot of statistical studies but this is not admissable as scientific evidence. A hypothesis in scientific dicipline has to be tested to said to be true, and every test has failed to prove the hypothesis.
No animal has had cancer succesfully induced by exposure to smoking. oF COURSE LAB RATS ARE BRED IN STERILE CONDITIONS WHICH SUGGESTS SOMETHING ELSE IS REPOSNSIBLE...MAYBE IN COMBINATION WITH SMOKING YES BUT THAT IS NOT THE SAME.

So basically science has actually proved that smoking in isolation does not cause lung cancer. The disease needs a primary trigger and because smoking is blamed as that the real case is going undetected.
So...I am actually saying the real cause of premature deaths from lung cancer at least is the anti smoking lobby itslef.
the cops have stitched someone up who may be implicated in the crime but by doing so have let Mr Big off the hook to continue his murder spree.

MEDICAL SCIENCE HAS AN APALLING RECORD OF DOING THIS; the emphasis...which suits government aswell...has been on prevention rather than cure. This is an endemic problem in modern society. The police and the government...blame the victim for the crime...shouldnt leave valuables in the car. SAVES lots of money on detective work. Doctors and governemnt are blaming the patient for the disease; and when there is a precedent for blaming smoking for cevical and stomach cancers in the past which is now poven false it may be worth acknowledging I have a point.
It took an australian scientist to infect himself with helicobactor pylori to prove it was the cause of stomach ulceration of the type that leads to cancer. I don't think need to do that. Give me some rats and I will prove that the real case of lung cancer is hpv acting on certain genetic susceptiblty. Aggravated by thIngs like smoking, diesel, polltion Etc yes.. BuT the genetic and hpv risks need testing. Also diesel fumes.Thanks to your animal right mates we aren't doing this. The last licence in the uk to be granted for animal experiments relating to smoking was in the eighties on chicken embryos.

If you haven't got a genetc disposition to lung cancer and if you do not contact hpv no amount of smoking will give you lung cancer. why is the government therefore lying to me on my cigarette pack.

Anyway since you asked yes I am saying that....IT MAY BE IN THE COCKTAIL...BUT ALONE IT HAS NO EFFECT.
well...not no effect. It has been poven to inhibit lower bowel cancer; breast cancer; some asthma ; parkinsons; alzheimers; schizophrenia; gingivitis and halitosis to name just a few. Unlike THE COUNTER EVIDENCE THIS HAS ALL BEEN PROVEN AT SOME LEVEL SCIENTIFICALLY and ata time the vas mjrity of research money has gone to try..with spectacular failure... to prove the opposite.
Nicotine is wonder drug...that is what they are secretly saying.

there are no weapons of mass destruction but of course your government wouldnt lie to you about things like that with crass popaganda would it....


now.. I am off...so please don't ask me anything else if you are just going to scoff. and and make our own mind up...at least you will see if you can be bothered to look at my lnks is that there appears to be an awful lot of discrepancies and the public are unaware of it.


oh and l don't know if you see the news about the do gooding Environmentalists who killed off all the feral cats on a south pacific island to protect seabirds. The rabbits exploded and ate all vegetation and then the seabirds were gone anyway. the moral is no to meddle in eco systems you don't understand. The fox needs a natural discriminate predator and that is the hound. Nobody wants to wipe them out or it makes a worse problem. It is about balance using nature's example.....like having cats for mice, terriers for rats, hawks for pigeons etc instead of poison etc.
 
Strangely enough David, I've met enough artists and lived closely with them to know that business is invariably a long way down their list of priorities, and that their principal currency is normally ego and status. Your assertion therefore that we "really think its about business don't you" is actually missing the point as it's essentially asking the wrong question. It's not about business, its about consistancy.

We actually cut you a lot more slack than we normally do, to no small extent in deference and respect to the members you appeared to be acquainted with. Col permits people to use the board for commercial interests on the understanding that they're allowed one initial post to introduce themselves and their products etc and then they're expected to conduct business through PM's or to respond to questions only, rather than obliquely maintaining a creeping barrage of publicity. I really don't think it would be correct of me to isolate examples of where this has been done, but for the most part we tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, and provided they contribute to the board productively we'll normally take a pragmatic view of such things in recognition of this. I do feel however, that you were pushing this envelope to the point where it had become unreasonable

I might not personally agree with a lot of what you suggested, (even though as a smoker I'd like to!!!) but I am capable of separating the two, and I thankyou for not suggesting that had entered into my judgement etc. I think its entirely possible however, that you might have misjudged the constituency of the board a bit, which is not drawn exclusively from the countryside, as there are plenty of urban punters on here and with well over 200 active members you're bound to encounter a cross section. I will conceed however, that on reflection I think we should perhaps have moved against some of the more personal abuse you took, and would offer you a personal apology in this regard thus
 
I'm asthmatic and the only thing cigarette smoke does to me is make my chest tighten up and make me struggle to breathe, if it doesn't bring on an attack proper.

Yes, it's great for those with asthma, is cigarette smoke.

read the swedish study in the link above. also note that wherever smoking is dramatically reducing eg california...asthma...paticularly childhood asthma...its on the rise in a mirror pattern.
then also check the world health organisation study which they have surpressed themselves after politcal meddling.
it suggests passive smoking actually reduces risk of lung cancer and asthma in the largest study ever done.

yes some people don't like the smoke therefore they have a psychosomatic reaction to it. This 'coughing and wheezing fit' reaction has never been observed in lab animals though sometimes they shy away from it obvously.

It is not surprsng...we innoculate ourselves against smallpox by giving ourselves cowpox; to flu by giving oursleves weakned strain of flu. that is how the immune system works through exposue. those with least exposue to smoking will have less immunity against lung disease caused by other factors. also sthma is a nervous disease...treated most effectively by inhaling similar chemicals through an inhaler to those in tobacco smoke. in fact nicotIne is currently being used in clinical trials. think...how many people do you hear say it calms their nerves.

The only sanctuaries are on hunting/animal faming land. therefore the solution for conservation was clear to me and sadly most urbAn people havent learned that.
thankfully the Rio declaration on the environment which the uk government is in clear breach of does.

Oh, so my asthma's psychosomatic now, is it? Thanks for that, Dr Dave - I'll be sure to tell my doctor that when I go back in a few weeks whilst she's tutting over my peak flow readings and forcing new inhalers on me.

yet again insults without any attempt to give counter evidence or argument; or dispute or probably even read the evidence I have given in links. If you want to believe your asthma is caused by cigarette smoke you can but the scentific evidence in the two most thorough studies does not back it up. Continue to suffer.

It matters not; the same mentality was encountered when it was revealed that witches weren't made of wood.

well here is the evidence that hunting and fur and traditional animal farming protects habitat. Doesn't really matter what you guys think because the experts agree with me. Of course; you can go on listening to the likes of bill oddie and the labour party's mates IFAW, but remember the latter are barred from the World Conservation Union because their ideas are considered dangerous and racist lunacy.
here is an example of what I am talking about various kinds of hunting beng considered allies to Conservation goals

I could go on and on.

David Bellamy, conservationist: "While we have hunting, shooting and fishing interests in this country we will have better landscape management. Without these interests, Britain would have become a prairie landscape."

worth also of couse remembering that the State that first banned foxhunting...the Nazis... the fox went into severe decline and extinct in the former czechslovakia.

Principle 22 of the Rio Declaration

'Indigenous people and their communities and other local communities have a vital role in environmental management and development because of their knowledge and traditional practices. States should recognize and duly support their identity, culture and interests '

what many of you believe is based on outdated misinformation propogated by lobby groups, media in their pay, and government. There is no harm in keeping a open mind and checking some of the links above on both the smoking and hunting arguments. Or carry on believing what you are spoonfed.

Taken out of context I think Dave - this refers primarily to South American (and other) tribes who's traditional ways of living are being ruined by logging firms, tourism, . If you think they meant for it to be used as a way of supporting the use of dogs to rip foxes to pieces whilst a bunch of blokes ride horses, chat away and drink brandy all morning then you're mistaken.

That said given your previous posts Dave I'm surprised you chose not to quote Principle 23 of the same convention

"
Principle 23. People under Oppression
The environment and natural resources of people under oppression, domination and occupation shall be protected. "
Have a look at UNESCO too Dave as they have some interesting stuff on sustainability and environmental management.

And quoting the Fur Council on the pro's of hunting and fur farming is like asking Turkey's their thoughts on Christmas.
 
Alright I've had enough of this


Those who wish to disagree with David, must do so with the T&C's. I'm sorry folks its as simple as that!!!. I recognise there's a degree of passionate response (and that's meant with the depth of feeling) but where as we'll accept a degree of 'challenge', we'd respectively ask you to either ignore it, or keep with board rules please.

Okay now at least you attempt to raise some counter argument; and have least looked at the Rio dec.

Firstly, yes the declaration protects the hunting rights as a form of eco management of various tribes...not just south american but also inuit, siberian tribes , Canadian first nations, sami etc. the pnciple is the same; these tradtional practices protect the environment as it has been for many years. Unless you are suggesting that somehow there is any racial difference, why does it not apply to foxhunting which was first started by Owen Glyndawr; and developed by the Normans and their descendent as a fair...indeed a 'sporting' way of managing problem animals. To this day some of the Curre hounds have bloodlines going back to Glyndwr's hounds; and many actual 'huntsmen' and terrier men with a variety of hunts are welsh scottish or irish and have followed a well etablished family route. The principle of using predators to hunt is well established from the ancient sumerians to the celts and arabs.
All are traditional ways of managing predators or vermin or for fur or food.

Your next point appears to object to the fact the hunt is enjoyed by those on horseback ...the fox is 'ripped apart'. Do you really think that plains indians didnt enjoy chasing buffalo off a cliff to have their 'heads smashed in' or mongol horsemen don't enjoy watchng their eagles released from horseback to kill wolves. ' not blood lust its admiration of skill...manouvering you horse, or watching a predator kill....just like we do when we see cheetah bring down a gazelle on tv; if t doesn't get you adenalin up you must be so far removed from nature I dont know how you can be interested in horse racing. You also underestimate the links between the various hunting cultures of the world. Where do you think the Hunts pently got their eagle v fox training from. You also may be unaware that many of the hund in us huns brd by chkee indians; or that native americans and south american tribal representatives aswell as sami and Inuit and mongolians have been taken on hunts in the UK and supported them seeing an attack on any traditional hunting as an attack on ALL traditional hunting. If you go to my myspace you will see that I have many friends from these cultures; though I dare not link it for fear of spamming. DO NO UNDERESTIMATE OUR CAMARADERIE. At this point I would link images of my model Bridie painted with spirit paint on horseback [and I have been congratulated by many american indians on my hail markings and spirit door marks] from a shoot done with full support of native american shamen to celebrate precisely this and also the independence of the Lakota nation from the USA. Sioux leader Russell Means one time presidential nominee for the Libetarian party is currently training 100 young men to hunt buffalo from horseback on his ranch.
The buffalo are set to return.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Lakotah

I am in daily contact with native people from around the globe.

In adition my gilfrind Eliza is a leading academic expert in climate change and sustainability. Again I would link here an image of her with her Sami reindeer fur but it would be spam. So perhaps you would like to see Saba Douglas Hamilton the conservationist in sami furs instead
running-with-reindeer.jpg

I am currently in negotiation with a Sami designer to add reindeer leather trousers to my PonyGurl Couture fashion collection. They will be superb to ride out in. I buy furs from the sami the evenk the Cree and others and will visit Greenland later the year with Eliza as guests of the Inuit. I also buy furs from SAGA farms which I have seen have incredible welfare standards; and rabbit fom the czech republic and nutria [coyp] fom polish farms and managed wetlands the meat of these animals is all eaten. I fail to see how it is dIfferent from leather. I also use Scottish tweed as the principle of using animals is sustainable...your polyester and synthetic clothing is not and has had devastating effect on animal habitat over the last thirty years while everyonw has been smug with themselves not for wearing fur. We shall also visit south america...patagonia chile and peru..to source nutria rex rabbit and farmed chinchilla alapaca and some of the people there the very south american tribes you talked about. Real fair trade....not the kind used to destroy leopard habitat for cheap coffee.

So you see when I linked the fur council know what I am talking about... I Am afraid its you who have again been misinfomed...they speak the truth; I know about it...and hunting...well. And I can guarantee you I have NEVER ined an act of animal cruelty. I wish I could day the same about the battery chicken industry....or indeed horse racing. Yes i think it IS cruel that it is expected jockey ride a horse out to the line and not use his sensible judgement to ride the horse when it may be tired....all for punters. I think trainer should be able to say...give him an easy run round as this ground will make his shins sore...save him for next time'. Also some elements of handcapping are cruel as they break the horses spirit.
Now to the fur council of canada. Its headed by Paula Lishman. Her 'green' credentials are not in doubt.

so...if actually infinitely sustainble, good for the environment and protects animal habitats long term...remember the last great wilderness is the boreal forest and the arctic and this is who produces 80 per cent of fur; no coincidence....why would anyone be anti it.

Well they weren't for thousands of years.
then in the last forty years strange and crass propaganda started appearing . A multi billion dollar empire built on lies that fur was cruel.
And the evidence...well take a look. And remember what you read here is true...it has to legally as its so specific...unlike the fraudlently produced stuff they are talking about

yes,...animal rights snuff movies.


Oh and errrrr....yes that is the same IFAW that PAL is linked to that Tony Banks sister works for that gave Labour a million pound bribe....implicated.

Oh and the other big player of course is PETA. And all this time they have been telling us fur is cruel, look what they have been doing
http://www.petakillsanimals.com/petaTrial2.cfm
well hardly surprising when the leader Ingrid Newkirk...a form dog exterminator herself...has proclaimed that animal human relationships are abusive...yes that would be horse riding and pets...and all such domesticated breeds should be gelded out of existence in one generation.

Also hardly suprising that the two main models in that rather go naked campaign...Cindy Cafod and Elle Macpherson....have since become spokepersons and models for Blackglama north american mink association; and the other two Linda Evangelista and Naomi Campbell also feature regularly in fur campaigns.
They all wised up once they knew the truth.

what anti fur and anti hunting are actually about is capitalising on the politik of envy. And beware cos the same envy vibe stands against horse racing.
Ask Carol Pipe what she thinks about the 'bunny brigade' as she puts it.

whoever is doing the traditional method of management...the native people or UK/Irish foxhunts...the principle is the same...the tradition protects the habitat. And while the hunter....whoever he may be...are our eyes and ears on nature when something is wrong....we should listen. And sadly, it is western urban society and its complete unsustainability that is the problem as they poison build and pollute and destoy to get their synthetic 'animal friendly' petro chemical clothing and then have to whack the heating up making global warming a real problem so they can wear polyester shirts in the middle of january in work. When you see polar bears dying from that don't you think the inuit method of keepng warm and looking good [yes they do value their clothes as statement] better.
There is a chill wind blowing for those who don't get it yet.

Dave,
If you come out with a statement saying you won't be posting again, then please don't bother. Don't think too many are interested in your childish antics.

So let me get this bit straight. We innoculate ourselves against certain diseases by exposing our bodies to weakened strains of said diseases, yes?
And those with least exposure to smoking will therefore have less immunity against lung disease?
Yet, you also say elsewhere on this thread that smoking doesn't cause lung disease. This strikes me as somewhat contradictory. Either it causes disease and we expose ourselves to it in order to innoculate, or it doesn't cause lung disease and exposure is therefore pointless.

Re the calming of nerves - even I, as a 30 a day smoker, know full well that this is simply a case of the stimulants contained within the cigarette giving the body a chemical "rush" similar to adrenaline.

PS: Whilst I don't agree with pretty much anything you've said, I do respect your right to say it (even if it is bollocks! :p) so please ignore those who would gag you.

PPS: Your medium is clearly not the written word - the best artists in that medium generally tend to employ an editor, thus enabling their audience to get the most out of their work - it would almost certainly benefit the impact of your arguments to do likewise. (Just make sure it's not Warbler).
