Migraines are no joke. I experienced my first major migraine during an Advanced Placement test for Biology in tenth grade. There are different symptoms for migraines and can vary by person. Mine is pretty severe and usually occur when I am not eating properly or I am under too much stress. It runs in the family and I ended up getting them the worst. My older sister and I were driving home from Disneyland once. We bought season passes when I was in 7th grade so she would sign me out of school on…

This scarcity, fueled by unequal distribution amongst countries caused by geographical and political obstacles, raises the potential of “water wars”. Such concerns are exacerbated by uncontrollable population growth, pollution due to industrialization and modernization, and climate change. A new approach to the sustainable distribution of water is necessary. International cooperation…

It is rare to have wars based solely on religion, although they make up about 40% of all other wars fought. Religious wars are motivated by a higher power or idol that is said to have commanded radical groups to kill in an unjust manner. Ethnic cleansing, for instance, is one aspect of war against religion.
