Date: 24/02/2010 12:37 Hello Ms

Silvia.
As you will understand, I am writing because of the news on the method of Halal ritual slaughter.

I read a few emails that have been facing these days, but I have a bit different arguments, and as you can imagine, I hope to not get the usual canned reply.

are forced to make a little example, I'm sorry if the mail will be a little 'long.
I read the stunning quote made by an electrical device. However I would remind you that this proce implies two things: 1
- that we ignore completely the "feel" of the animal. Well you are not there with an array of electrodes connected to the brain, much less been inside of her head. I would remind you that animals feel and suffer like us, so it is equally conceivable that in some cases perceive the external world and the pain just like when a man falls into a coma but still aware of everything ... Which according to many studies is by no means rare.
2 - that the animal suffers, however, a very long death, absolutely free of injuries and, regardless of whether the hearing or not, in any case unnecessary cruelty imposed on a living being to please a section of the population too entrenched to old religious precepts, totally unnecessary, disrespectful of life and especially outdated.

In the beginning I said that your initiative might have attracted you to the kind of customers, away from those butchers who however does not apply stunning estimate. But to be realistic we know well that this is pure utopia as the purists will never accept this kind of compromise.

When you have acquired this policy only made things worse: if you beat that first there was no way for the introduction of this practice and tried to reduce the intake of meat in the markets, now is even worse. You have opened the door to a practice that was not there before in Italy and that therefore it could still be curbed. Now, with the soft policy of "veniamoci meeting" this is no longer possible. You have quietly accepted the naturalization of a barbaric and ruthless silly just to win a slice of that market first - damn it - you had not noticed.

In short, nothing new: it all comes down to the usual marketing reasons.

Before we could say "Italy has so many flaws, but at least we do not do this to our animals." I've never been a fervent patriot, but I do not care if they eat dogs in Korea or on TV explain how to cook cats. Here in Italy I pay taxes, respect laws, I have to submit to so many injustices ... but if something does not feel like I can still speak my mind and respect me.
And I think that when a religious tradition so much impact on the life of a living being becomes something to avoid as much as possible and not to share.

As a scholar of Italian traditions can bring hundreds of examples of religious festivals which over the centuries have evolved at the same pace of the increasing social awareness on the issue animals. If before we nailed to the cross, a dove, now he nailed a rubber puppet. Where before we put a goat at the stake, now using a straw puppet.
This is called civilization.

you rather have taken a step back.

I read the answer that his colleague had given to a girl in the facebook group:
"I must also say that we are committed to always seek, with the help of experts, techniques that do not cause suffering to animals, also for the slaughter "Italian".
which translated means: not only we not care about the growing vegetarian population remained attached the old stereotype of the "flesh = health" (promoted by the lobby and endorsed by corrupt doctors) rather than proposing new vegan products, but increased in the meat trade also incorporating a slice of the market before we had foolishly ignored.

Once again the pretext of religion as a shield to do much more land interests at the expense of one who holds us to certain things and it cost you for a lifetime.
I feel offended by your attitude, I feel offended as Italian woman, as a writer and scholar who sees erode what little social progress under customs arrears and cruel, as customers made fun of by those who always says so "sensitive" to a consumer awareness and natural against GM and kept in battery cages.

You know perfectly well that the mass boycott of here is a short step, and this prose I quote a team member who said, "The Coop is you, certainly not me."

Pending reasonable and convincing explanation, possibly without mentioning me the Lav and company because I had read their press release, I extend cordial greetings.

Monica Casalini

dear lady monica,
are the same person who wrote the response that you quote. I would ask, please, leave me exegesis. is not true that this choice is designed to encourage the consumption of meat and conquer new market shares! I
, hoping not to be too boring, pick up some points: the Islamic slaughter without prior stunning is allowed in our country (certainly not us as we open the doors), as well as farming practices are allowed that are not exactly in line with the concept of animal welfare. This means that you do not nail more doves, but somewhere there are those who slaughter animals with this procedure and in full legality. coop, rather than lack of interest, he worked to find the consensus of Islamic communities to accept a practice "more civilized", not retreating from its principles in the name of the market. and look a bit ', to me (animal rights and vegetarian) it seems that if you retrieve this way all the "ritual slaughter" would have taken a step forward. and, again, a step forward, perhaps it could take another ... it seemed consistent with a choice made for many years to introduce rules to better respect for the animals: a reduction of high stocking rates, elimination of cages, food rules, rules for transportation, and even elimination of the products (and components thereof) experienced animal removal from the sale of any natural fur, etc.. Certainly, one can argue at length on the advisability of exaggerated consumption of meat in the Western world, from which flows the horrors of factory farming, speculation, etc.. it is not, for that matter, to make choices that belong to the individual conscience.
try to introduce improvements, suggestions and advice. and we also care for the millions of vegetarian and vegan consumers: our sets designed for them are growing and we gladly accept requests for further integration.
dear monica, having been on a few years back I remember that until a few years ago our farmers slaying pigs (Without prior stunning) in farmyards. a normal practice time and that she, a scholar should be familiar since it is part of the history and folklore in italics. We have made progress. because we exclude that others fail? cordially

Gabriella Hello and thanks for the swift response.

I've read everything carefully and even though I also vegan and animal rights do not agree with some points, but I omit.

The focus is only one: the Islamic culture is truly Halal meat sacrificed when the animal is conscious.
So the question is very simple: to produce or not produce Halal Meat Halal meat? The

reproduce below the Conditions of Halal Slaughter, being careful to point 4:
http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macellazione # Condizioni_di_uccisione
(for sources please visit the Islamic code "Sunna" )

Why was insulting us in the first case, the second insult the Islamic faith.
addition, the certification by the imam, however, goes beyond personal decision of the aforementioned purists who never buy your product. Just like I do not buy products made from soy are not sure if that is not GMO soybeans. And certainly not a simple label change my mind (since 99.5% of world production is derived from GM soy, we are just lucky to walk into a store and find just the 5% soy bio everywhere .. .)

back to us. I read that "the products are certified by the imams and the signs are in both Italian and Arabic. For the first few weeks there will be orders of Arab origin, complete with a veil, to follow the customers."
Beautiful. But I'm sure - and with me hundreds of thousands of other people - that there are other methods that do not involve integration involving animals. In Italy it is already time for integration, much more than in other countries, but the animals must always come to petitions, protests and boycotts. So I think that this initiative could be avoided safely and no one would be offended. As she says: there are already many slaughterhouses in which we practice the Halal slaughter. And you think what we are fighting against?
As I noted in the previous letter 'we do not care "legal or illegal methods practiced in Italy: I do not want to kill an animal just because it is always an act uncivil, then steps forward, objectively, there are none at all. Finally

reply to this statement: "I remember that until a few years ago our farmers slaying pigs (without prior stunning) in farmyards."
Exactly. Years ago. In my email I emphasized the social evolution of our country as a key achievement towards a more ethical life. His clarification only confirms what many think it is time for a change:)

Waiting for your reply, I extend cordial greetings.

Monica Casalini

dear monica, because
maintain a bias? because they think that there can, even by Muslims, be changes?
us if we have changed, maybe they can change them too. I hope it. for many things, of course, not only for the topic on which we are discussing. I think there are conditions indispensable for us, the basis of any possible discourse of integration and acceptance: the respect of human rights (especially women), freedom of thought, religion, expression, to name a few. compliance with certain standards of animal welfare has become one of those conditions. 90% of Italians eat meat, there are still farms (where, I assure you, the animals suffer), just travel to see us pass by on the highway truck packed with animals being transported in a state of lager ... before slaughter. this list of horrors is to say that we are the first (without going to the Muslims) have great, long way to go. coop is doing its part, but I've already said and I do not want to repeat myself. on a purely personal, I hope of course that the Western dietary pattern changes dramatically. also the planet if you wish.
soon
gabriella

Vote Of Thanks At A Wedding

CHAOS UNIVERSITY OF LIFE.

I would like to know how it works damn my university ° __ ° No, because they are almost three years and still attend the I did not understand. The last half of criminally
it was decided to change the method of booking exams, despite what we had at the time students worked very well and no one had ever complained. But no, since 2009 student enrollment in the portal. Which is just fine, say, if only we could enter \u0026lt;. \u0026lt;The times required for you to enter you must pray at least eighty different languages to appear on the screen hoping to see the coveted words "Welcome dude, you are now registered". No, seriously, is absurd. In two months I was able to access services on-line once, and book appeals precisely. It 'a shame. It 'worth of our students. And I do not believe even more that the server is sopraffollato as we are told, there is something wrong just in the damn portal \u0026lt;. 'Oh.

Yesterday I passed the exam of Sociolinguistics. Neither I nor other people had the certainty that now there was the appeal and obviously I tried to access my personal area of the portal, there are obviously successful. I go to the website of the Faculty of Arts and read "10:30 am". Fine, I say, if it was at 9.00 I would get up at dawn due to arrive at the university since it takes me about an hour away by train - at best, given the various delays and cancellations -. All they tell me about where you place the call is "plenary power". THANK YOU, to date there arrival, of course examination is not conducted on the street or in subway ___

Arrival in power, look at the bulletin board of announcements, obviously I have written an emeritus damn where do I go to hell the exam. I ask the secretary. "Look shouts," I answered the guy. "I've already checked, no," "Ah ... be '... Dunno, I do not know, go to the LEDs and wait. " The LEDs should serve as "message boards", too bad most of the time failures are \u0026lt;. \u0026lt;Miraculously hours worked. Look to flow all the names of teachers - five to six minutes, because they are slow, we were not even primary school students - and finally, I know I have to go in that classroom.

Among the crowd of students waiting for the teacher I see a couple of girls with whom I attended the course, started chatting and soon discover that none of us knows if the examination is written or oral O__O Yes, because and at the time of booking were given either of two types. What intelligent and useful. Among the various assumptions and fears ("Maybe it is written for those of 270", "No, I think it the contrary, we, at 509 "," I wrote I do not, rather than with other witches assistants prefer to postpone two hundred times ") are waiting for about an hour. At 11.15 the assistant professor deigns to arrive - the assistant, not her, for heaven's sake \u0026lt;. \u0026lt;. -. Having sowed further panic ("Today, we are only written exams, who agreed the program with the teacher has to go back Friday and will be questioned orally), finally begins ° __ ° I greet my two companions - the word "Written" have decided to abandon the mission - and I sit stoically in my place xD

Fortunately it went well ^ __ ^ I managed to answer all the questions and almost was not enough space to write. Well, 'I suppose that after a morning like that if I went wrong I would have set fire to the right, at least xD

Cv Sample Beauty Terapist

MEME AND OTHER CRAZY.


Last night I managed to make this slightly more decent è__é livejournal is still a long distances from 'initial idea I had, but no matter, for now, I okay.

My brother is currently on the plane with his class high school, New York, and given that I miss terribly already have to find something to do when I'm at home \u0026lt;. \u0026lt;. Actually I have a lot of things to do, eh - study study study - but the thing is now I find it much more attractive concept of "wasting time" XD

So little meme taken from the livejournal of katerayearth , just to complete the work of presentation:

1. My username is _____ _____ Because
Stella Livingston (the "dreamer" is nothing, you are always pretend not to see it \u0026lt;. \u0026lt;LiveJournal, I hate you, know this). "Star" because it is the name by which I would call my mother if only she also liked my father. He has always regretted not telling me not even put his middle name, so the idea that someone call me that - as he would like her - I like it a lot.
"Livingston" is a tribute to the wonderful novel by Richard Bach Jonathan Livingston Seagull , which I love since ... I learned to read? Growing up I developed a love towards him dispassionate and devoted xD, which still leads me to consider it as a beautiful, infinite life lesson.

2. My name is _____ _____
Because Valentina, because both my parents liked. Fortunately, I add, since it is the female name that I love most of all.

3. My journal is titled _____ _____ Because
The Sky Above, for the sky - one way or another - is a recurrent theme in my life. That seems so è__é something disturbing, but in reality in my perspective it looks like very positive. The Heaven sent me always feel wonderful, thanks to its color, because of its immensity, because of its ability to collect your thoughts without putting up barriers that prevent the flow. Under the sky we live, we dream, we fly with the fantasy. And my nickname is composed of two words that are directly related (if we consider Stella Livingston as star and as the name of a gull). And also because I like to think that in every moment of my life, whatever they do, there's always the sky above. Really, there 'is more appropriate title, for me xD.

4. My subtitle is _____ _____ Because
The Gull Sees Farthest Who Flies Highest . It 's a quote from Jonathan Livingston Seagull , in fact. I've always found estremamemente poetic, almost touching * __ * E below The Sky Above us was fine point ù.ù

5. My friends page is Called Because _____ _____
"Friends", because frankly I do not find the way to change my name xD.

6. My default userpic is _____ _____ Because
The photo you see the sunset from my house è__é. (One of the many I shot you see the sunset from my house xD). Why is the favorite moment of the day. Because when the sky takes on the colors I really get excited stunned and stared until I feel the need to hold so much beauty, whether it be with a photo or a drawing or a story. And why is the sky, in fact - yes, I finally broke up with all this talk of heaven, I know xD -.

And now I'm going to finish writing (hopefully) a fanfiction on the Ash / Misty that is particularly close to my heart. It 's sad, in some places, and I swear sometimes I think the only Magone ;___; Not that this is the first time that happens, eh. Recently I was able to get almost burst into tears of emotion for another story I'm writing sad that nothing has xD. Not to mention yet another, for which I actually plant (and just thinking about it, take note). By too much empathy with my characters, I think xD. I am comforted to know that they are not the only one - even katerayearth, from what I read in his journal, have these problems xD -. Actually we do not consider it a very strange thing, that is, yes, after we laugh, and I do dell'idiota alone, but be particularly sensitive can only be an advantage, no? ^ ^''

Yarna Markat Ichalkaranji

HERE I AM ...

(Introduction: why the heck LiveJournal does not allow to use more than 15 characters for your username? Why the hell my name is Stella Livingston and tell you a letter I was forced to invent something else to combine with Stella? Okay, patience).

It 's the first time I write a blog. I'm not ever been attracted to, nor so far I have felt the need to have a my . But lately I knew it was time to "come out" to make clear to the web on my life - not that I ever claimed, however XD -. This is because basically it was starting to lose the sense that write fanfiction and stories just for myself. Writing is something I've always done, since I was about seven or eight years, and the only reason that still inspires me to sit at a desk with pen and paper is because I love it . E 'pure passion, pure fun, and I never considered a hobby directly connected to the personal gratification - that can be comments, reviews or whatever else -. But writing fanfiction, put the soul and then not share it / them to those who love to read your same fandom ... come on, is stupid XD. And so, just: Livingston are Stella and I write a lot a lot, mostly fanfiction, and whoever wants to can come and see me in this space to look at combining this ^ ^ ". Ever be able to find something that interests you.

Be ', now is also the case that the stops with this rigmarole serious, because I am anything but an earnest person XD. I am a girl very cheerful, ironic and self-deprecating around the clock, let alone ^ ^. And no, things of me as you will discover. What is to know for now is that I'm an incurable dreamer, an incurable chatterbox - but just verbose, eh, I fear this will soon discover it - and the fandom that I love most of all, that to which I devote more time, and one on which I write in great abundance is Pokémon. Or rather, the shipping Ash / Misty , but it goes well 'XD. There are ten happy years that support this couple and I have no intention to stop doing that, because I'm completely in love * __ * But completely. You can almost say that it is for me a kind of philosophy of life XD, I have a lot to those two and the bond that exists between them, the way I still love to design a billion other things. So if you are hopelessly pokéshipper like me, hit a shot * _ *, which from my circle of friends "human" is already so if I'm not executed as soon as I open my mouth about it XD.
As you can imagine, then, most of the fanfics I write are subject to shipping and Pokémon Ash / Misty (and by?). I plan to enroll in EFP very soon - although I still have reservations in this respect - so you can follow me there, but I still think that I will post very well to this space.
(... And if some pious soul, out of pity from my total ineptitude in the Internet, plans to come to my rescue, I will open an archive of stories about altervista).

However on this blog does not speak only of fanfiction area, eh. I mean, yes, the main purpose for which I opened is essentially that, but there are many other things to discuss * __ * I love books, music, studio, New York (the team), sclera simple ... Not too personal facts, however, a reason why so far I have not ever made a living on the internet and there is that sense I would recount the events / feelings very private, so I will not. I'll just talk about the world around me and how I see it. Of the many aspects of life and why I love her, all.

... XD Stay tuned, that even if my time is never too much regard to pass here every two to three days. (And yes, I know that graphically this livejournal is nothing short of disgusting, but it's already so I know what a layout \u0026lt;. \u0026lt;Pious soul, help me XD).

I'm going to study, that the tests imposed -... and also my fanfiction, because as usual when I have some question in view, or something else of importance I have the inspiration to do with a ball. But you can>. \u0026lt;-. See you soon ^ __ ^
