CAMP HUMPHREYS — Dog lovers here gathered for Pet Fest 2012 at the Humphreys Veterinary Clinic May 5. The event featured the paws walk, a pet show, face painting, an agility course, pet photos, informational booths, a military working dog demonstration and an awards ceremony.

“We are really happy with the turnout and excited to be a part of the Camp Humphreys community,” said Capt. Amy Carlson, officer in charge at the Humphreys vet clinic. “We have many events such as face painting, doggy treats and grooming. Humphreys has been great to us and we have received lots of support. We look forward to continuing events like this today.”

The American Red Cross participated in the event to offer knowledge about pet first aid, while the Osan Animal Shelter provided information on pet adoptions.

The dog show had categories such as owner/pet lookalike, best dressed, best pet trick and best in show. Rocko, owned by Blair Bogle, was the biggest winner of the day, winning first prizes in owner/pet lookalike and best in show categories.

“This is a great opportunity to hang out with dog lovers and people with the same hobbies,” said pet owner Tom Stout. “This event also provided information for people who are PCS’ing and have pets with them. This was a fun day.”

NYC - Grand Army Plaza: Circle of Animals / Zodiac Heads

Image by wallyg
Circle of Animals / Zodiac Heads, an outdoor sculptural exhibition by Chinese sculptor Ai Weiwei (艾未未), was on exhibit at the Pulitzer Fountain at Grand Army Plaza in Central Park from May 2 to July 15, 2011. Weiwei reinterpreted the twelve bronze animal heads representing the traditional Chinese zodiac that once adorned the famed fountain-clock, designed in the 18th century by two European Jesuits serving in the court of the Qing dynasty Emperor Qianlong, that was ited in the European-style gardens of the Yuanming Yuan, an imperial retreat in Beijing. In 1860, the Yuanming Yuan was ransacked by French and British troops, and the heads were pillaged.

The exhibition earned notoriety for events beyond the art realm. Weiwei is an outspoken political activist who has been highly and critical of the Chinese Government's stance on democracy and human rights. Following an arrest at Beijing airport on April 3, he was held for over two months, through the exhibition's opening, without any official charges being filed. Allegations were made about "economic crimes", but ultimately he was released on June 22.
