1. Rights
   Rights, liberties, powers, and immunities are all kinds of "rights." Most importantly, each kind of right implies a certain kind of liability in others, and each kind of right ... has its opposite form of liability. Thus a "right," plain and simple, always implies some duty in others: they must observe your right through some kind of appropriate behavior or recognition. Thus, if you have a "right" to have a job, it is going to mean that someone is going to have the duty of giving you a job. A "responsibility" is a duty [4]. What we can call the responsibility to take care of one's own interests really means a duty not to be a burden to others, which means a duty not to use them by trying to fraudulently impose a non-contractual duty of commission on them.
2. To Be or Not to Be -- Animals
   The Chronicles present the adventures of a group of children who travel to the land of Narnia through a magical portal located in the back of an old wardrobe. In Narnia, a place where animals talk, magic is common, and good fights evil, the children are pitted against the Ice Queen and her minions.
3. Animals
   Animals are living things. Animals are not plants so they can't make their own food or energy from the light of the sun. Animals have to eat other living things (animals, plants, fungi, etc.) to get energy to live. Many animals live in the world. Some are big and some are small. Some live in water, others live on the ground and some animals can fly.
4. The Animals
   The Animals were part of the English blues scene of the early Sixties and one of the most noteworthy bands of the original British Invasion. The band formed in Newcastle-on-Tyne, a port city and coal-mining hub in northeast England. With the five piece lineup of singer Eric Burdon, organist Alan Price, bassist Chas Chandler, guitarist Hilton Valentine and drummer John Steel, the band reflected their earthy upbringing with blues-based rock and roll. The group derived its inspiration and much of its early repertoire from American blues and R&B sources, adapting them to a British working-class sensibility. Gruff-voiced Eric Burdon was a commanding blues singer, imparting rage and anguish into their material. The band's sound was ... heavily defined by Alan Price's organ playing, which provided dramatic accents and a blues-jazz atmosphere.
5. Rights -- Human Rights
   Rights abuses fuel AIDS: Since the early 1980s, HIV/AIDS has claimed 25 million lives.40 million people are living with HIV. Its destructive force is fueled by a wide range of human rights violations. Such violations include sexual violence and coercion faced by women and girls, stigmatization of men who have sex with men, abuses against sex workers and injecting drug users, and violations of the right of young persons to information on HIV transmission. In prisons, HIV spreads with frightening efficiency due to sexual violence, lack of access to condoms, lack of harm reduction measures for drug users, and lack of information. Human rights violations only add to the stigmatization of persons at highest risk of infection and ... marginalize and drive underground those most in need of information, preventive services, and treatment.
6. Rights -- People
   This metaphor of trumps leads naturally to the question of whether there is any right that has priority to absolutely all other normative considerations: whether there is an "ace of rights." Gewirth (1981) asserts that there is at least one such absolute right: the right of all persons not to be made the victim of a homicidal project. For such a right to be absolute it would have to trump every other consideration whatsoever: other rights, economic efficiency, saving lives, everything. Not all would agree with Gewirth that even this very powerful right overrides every conceivable normative concern. Some would think it might be justifiable to infringe even this right were this somehow necessary, for example, to prevent the deaths of a great many people. If it is permissible to kill one in order to save a billion, then not even Gewirth's right is absolute.

8. Leather -- Animals
   While many people think it is cruel to kill animals for their fur, leather remains a popular consumer item, even though both products require the killing of animals. Most consumers mistakenly assume that leather is merely a by-product of the meat industry, and that buying leather clothing does not increase the number of animals slaughtered. However, this belief ignores the economic interdependence of factory farming and the leather trade.
9. The Animals -- Pets
   The original Animals were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994. Their influence can be heard in artists as varied as The Doors, Joe Cocker, Frijid Pink, The Chocolate Watchband, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Janis Joplin, David Johansen, and Fine Young Cannibals. In 2003, the band's version of "House of the Rising Sun" ranked number 122 on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list.
10. Animal Farm
    When Animal Farm was published in 1945, its British author George Orwell (a pseudonym for Eric Arthur Blair) had already waited a year-and-a-half to see his manuscript in print. Because the book criticized the Soviet Union, one of England's allies in World War II, publication was delayed until the war ended. It was an immediate success as the first edition sold out in a month, nine foreign editions had appeared by the next year, and the American Book-of-the-Month Club edition sold more than a half-million copies. Although Orwell was an experienced columnist and essayist as well as the author of nine published books, nothing could have prepared him for the success of this short novel, so brief he had considered self-publishing it as a pamphlet. The novel brought together important themes—politics, truth, and class conflict—that had concerned Orwell for much of his life. Using allegory—the weapon used by political satirists of the past, including Voltaire and Swift—Orwell made his political statement in a twentieth-century fable that could be read as an entertaining story about animals or, on a deeper level, a savage attack on the misuse of political power.
