decided that the shopkeeper was not guilty of offering the flick knife for sale. Application In order to decide if the offense prescribed by the Registration of Offenses Weapons Act, 1959 has been committed in these three scenarios or not, the literal, golden or the mischief rule of statutory interpretation has to be applied (Australian Law Students Association, 2009). Scenario 1 In this case, Jane had confiscated a flick-knife from a member of the youth club and had given the same to her supervisor

Generally Modified Organism better known as GMOs are becoming a popular topic of argument around the world. The question on everyone’s mind is whether GMOs are safe to consume and what effects they may possibly have. GMOS while becoming a topic today have been around for years now. Scientists have been genetically altering crops for years now and this idea has been around for some time. Nonetheless, GMOs are becoming the new wave of discussion among many. GMOs are needed today to help the food shortage

GMOs Genetically modified organisms also known as GMOs are used to change the DNA of animals and plants by using crossbreeding methods ("GMO Facts." The NonGMO Project RSS. Web. 4 Mar. 2015.). These altered organisms are used to improve our food and are thought to be a good way to feed the rest of the world, especially undeveloped countries. But what most people don’t know is that GMOs are poorly tested, unsafe, and are found in most foods in the market. Genetically modified organisms are not

When GMOs first became “a thing” in 1996, the United States immediately began planting them in many rapidly increasing areas. (Lucht, 2015, p.4257) These plants were mostly insect and herbicide-resistant. The US was not alone in its support for GMOs seeing as Argentina, India, China and Canada all began planting GMOs as well. (Lucht, 2015, p.4257) No one seemed to see anything wrong with this movement until the first US shipments of GM soy arrived in Europe and protests breached. In contrast to many

Abstract: - The many concepts we currently have in the field of mathematics are thanks to great mathematicians from different cultures throughout time. An important era when great mathematical discoveries were made was during Medieval Times, or the Middle Ages. In this paper we discuss important discoveries and contributions that were made by three famous mathematicians of this time period including French Nicole Oresme, German Jordanus Nemorarius and Italian Leonardo Pisano, better known for his

Rashomon was released in 1950, and is the work of esteemed Japanese director Akira Kurosawa. Rashomon was only the second film directed by Kurosawa, but it is by far his most popular and influential piece of work. Kurosawa worked closely with cinematographer Kazup Miyagawa to create this film, which was based on Ryunosuke Akytagawa’s short story “In a Grove”. The film was the first of its kind to create a plot device that is now commonly used, and referred to as the “Rashomon Effect”. The film tells

In Apollonius of Rhodes’ Argonautica, written in the 3rd Century BC, the character Medea’s complexity intrigues, enchants and horrifies us. Her passionate dedication to Jason and, consequently, the failure of their marriage, leads Medea to commit multiple horrific acts. She plans and commits the murders of numerous people, including her own two sons. However, it is not Medea’s free will that leads her to commit these actions. Medea’s decisions are not a consequence of her own cruelty, but of her

According to the regulations established by the FDA in 1992, “Under this policy, foods, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and their byproducts, derived from plant varieties developed by the new methods of genetic modification are regulated within the existing framework of the act” (FDA). In other words, instead of creating new regulations that are specific to these completely unique food products, they are put within the umbrella of other “natural” products. As time passes it appears to be harder

The year 2015 marks the twentieth anniversary of bioengineered crops and genetically modified organisms’ (GMO’s) being grown, harvested and sold across the entire world. The percentage of people who are actually aware of this frankenfoods existence, however, are small in numbers and for a very terrifying reason. Already, labeling laws exist in 64 countries, including Japan, Russia, Australia and Brazil, but are coincidentally nonexistent in North America as a whole. This lack of awareness is the

that GMO’s could have on the environment and the world. Many GMO’s can help those that are malnourished in third world countries as well as increase sustainability and food production in both developing and industrialized countries. For example, Golden Rice is genetically modified rice that has been engineered to produce Vitamin A that helps combat Vitamin A deficiency which is one of the leading causes of blindness in children of developing countries. Regular rice is lacking in many vital nutrients
