Golden Triangle

Over the past few decades a new controversy has arisen in the scientific community: should Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO’s) be used in modern society. There are generally two sides to this debate: one being in favor of GMO use and the other against it. Pro GMO activists believe that GMOs can help address hunger issues and help reduce use of pesticides/insecticides while Anti-GMO activists state that it is a threat to the agriculture industry, and should be banned. Both sides have several valid

The doctrine of ‘Parliamentary Sovereignty’ gives to UK Parliament sole legislative capacity. Parliament is therefore constitutionally free to pass or repeal any statute it chooses. Judges have no power to rule on the correctness of a statute. As long as it can be proved that the statute in question was properly passed and entered on the Parliamentary Roll, it is law and must be given effect Once Parliament has passed an Act, The role of the courts is to interpret the intention of Parliament as

Genetically modified organisms are created by altering the genetic makeup of a certain plant or animal. Most genetically modified (GM) crops are produced to withstand the pesticides or herbicides that would normally kill them. This would never happen in nature, hence the reason for genetically modifying them. The artificiality of the process and the synthetic harm of the substances involved prove GMOs to possess significantly more complications than their supporters prefer to admit. GMOs are known

in the Roman world experienced a lot of transformations with time. The changes can be observed through the literature depending on when it was written. For instance, some revolutions are noticeable in Book 6 of Virgil’s Aeneid and Apuleius 's The Golden Ass. Book 6 of Aeneid is a sort of prophecy as Virgil gives an account of Aeneas’ journey to the Underworld. The author’s imagination gives an insight into the nature of punishments for sin and that lack of adherence to the virtues of the religion

Intro: Leonardo Bonacci was an Italian mathematician during the middle ages. He is better known as Fibonacci or Leonardo de Pisa. There is very little known about Fibonacci’s life except for what he wrote down in his books. The details of his education, early life and family are vague. Since his books are written mainly about his work in mathematics he does not elaborate on his personal life. Date of Birth/Death & Family: Leonardo Bonacci was born around 1175 to a wealthy Italian merchant and the

The ancients understood time as a circle, not linear.  Each age has distinct themes and spiritual lessons. According to the Hinduism scriptures, all mortal beings are destined to pass through four great epochs in every cycle of creation and destruction. The world has already been through the first three and is currently

One major difference Apuleius makes in his depiction of Psyche is that he places a premise in her original encounter with Cupid – she is not allowed to know his identity nor to see his face. The sequence of Psyche’s acquaintance with her lover, in fact, plays quite an important role in the story. People often say that, “To see is to believe.” However, it is not always the case. Under the circumstance of love, what one sees will be highly deceptive, as it is human nature that one will prefer individuals

of herbicides to use and also allowing them to use fewer pesticides which is good for the environment. Another advantage of GMO’s is that they can add vitamins to a plant, making it healthier when eaten. For example, in his article “In a Grain of Golden Rice, a World of Controversy over GMO Foods,” Dan Charles explains how genetic modification of rice is used to help people who are more likely to get a vitamin A deficiency, which can cause blindness. This was implemented specifically for places like

Voices of men have traditionally been the loudest, and therefore most important in history, especially in Medieval Europe where male academics and preachers had the most influence on the lower classes and upper classes. Those accused of witchcraft were disproportionately female, and the writing and sermons from this era clearly set the groundwork for misogynistic witch hunts which are to come in the Early Modern period.
