Until recently, genetic foods have become popular for their ability to address many production and quality issues faced by natural/organic farming methods.

Today we are in the middle of a seeming “race-war” between civilians and law enforcement. Allegations are flung wildly, almost on a daily basis, concerning the use of excessive force by police officers as headlines continue to report abuse, and even deaths at the hands of those who are sworn to protect. It is considered more disconcerting because it is over twenty years after the 1992 L.A. riots, which brought the public’s attention to serious issues within law enforcement, and demanded change. Today, we are not seeing much of that change and the majority of the violence, if ...

The habit of tobacco use has been proven to be a leading cause of premature deaths in the United States. Additionally, factors associated with exposures related to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) have been the leading causes of increasing mortality and morbidity levels in the country and at the global scale.

Modern instances of racism are rather subtle and usually harder to completely analyze from what the victim recounts later.

But as of today, they stand corrected. Even from a passive standpoint, after hearing from a number of such victims, we have come to accept that this ...

Haiti is in the lowest quartile for all the wrong reasons—extreme poverty, poor health and sanitation, high unemployment, and collapse of institutional mechanisms. Haiti ranks 163 among 188 countries in terms of human development with 20 percent of ...

The origins of sexual orientation remain a matter of debate amongst scientists as well as the broad circles of society. The researchers of human sexual behavior, psychologists, sociologist, doctors, and genetics still have not reached a consensus on whether sexual orientation is inborn or socially influenced and constructed. As a result, societal attitude to this issue is still controversial. A number of theories introduced by such researchers state that homosexuality may be the result of certain peculiar properties of a fetus’ prenatal development (Garcia-Falgueras & Swaab. 2009), or genetic characteristics of an individual (Gavrilets & Rice, 2006). The opposing group of ...
