1. The objections to evolution by many non-scientists are mostly made without any previous research or investigations. It is argued that Darwin’s theory of evolution by common descent with modification does not support all living things. However, this theory is supported by many observations. Through geographic distribution, fossil records, morphology, embryology, and genomic analysis, evolution can be traced back to a common ancestry of living things. The development of phylogenies, relationships

“We can overcome division only by refusing to be divided.” - Raymond Williams According to Marxist theory, the upper class’s struggle to maintain power and the lower class’s struggle to obtain it cause all economic and social conflicts.

The belief in Fae is a cultural mythos that in the dark and unknown exist creatures humanity cannot

Abstract With improvements in capacity and performance and a decrease in cost, FPGAs have become a viable solution for making custom chips and programmable DSP devices. This paper presents an efficient implementation of Finite Impulse Response Filter (FIR) using Distributed Arithmetic (DA) architecture based on FPGA with the help of xilinx system generator software. Here, the multipliers in FIR filter are replaced with multiplierless DA based technique to remove high frequency Electrocardiogram(EMG)

The Tragedy of King Lear, is an epitaph of a fading old King. This is a play about old age; rather than the rise and fall of youth.

The task to accomplish for the elderly is to have their youth bear the memory of their flesh; so that their life is not forgotten.

The beauty of modernist literature lies within its attempt to seek greater meanings within a novel’s many contextual facades, including nothing short of skeptical and often times insightful interpretations of culture, along with philosophical positions and literary criticisms.
