HM

THE NONES OF SEPTEMBER had arrived, and so began the fortnight of games known to all citizens as the Ludi Romani. The four factions of Alexandria gathered at the Lageum amidst the massing throngs that swarmed in the hippodrome, all intent on a day spent in revelry and of racing, all intent on seeing Rubio of the Reds continue his winning ways. The placards and advertisements had heralded the Germani lad as the circus favorite, him reputedly having the finest quadriga of Libyans ever yoked and…

We started off Wednesday, knowing we would be covering a topic that was completely new to pretty much everyone attending. We were covering transposable elements. These were first discovered by Barbara McClintock in corn kernels. She noticed that the corn kernels were either colored, or plain- but once in a while they were spotted. Most scientists at the time assumed that the chromosome for color had been repressed or had broken off. However, Dr. McClintock felt that if the chromosome had been…

My heart begins beating faster as I eagerly wait for what is about to come next. Lefty pulls out a container of what appears to be strawberry frozen yogurt. I start breathing faster, anticipating what he plans on doing with it. He removes the lid off the container and positions himself in front of me on the bed. He dips one finger in and scoops out some of the frozen treat, he then begins smearing it down my chest and stops at my belly button. I began slightly shriving as he trailed his…

Ring! I hear my phone go off and buzz on the hardwood table that i'm sitting at. I look over from my computer to see a text message from Jackson. “Hey kendall, so i've been thinking, and i-.” That's all that i can see from the lock screen. On iPhones, why do you seriously have it where you can see only half of the text message on the screen, but if it was a notification that was ten pages long you'd show all of it. I punched in 43385 and seen at what he had said. “Hey Kendall i've been…

can help make combinations of traits that can protect offspring from things like diseases. Charles Darwin was an English naturalist and geologist but he is best known for his contributions to the Theory of Evolution. In 1831, he took a voyage on the HMS Beagle that opened Darwin’s eyes to the idea of evolution. He had one simple idea that all living things are related. Natural selection plays a big role in evolution. There are four parts to natural selection and they are genetic variation,…

Imagine being locked away for life, knowing you did not do the crime. Constantly shouting out, “I didn’t do it, I didn’t do it!.” In the end, all that is left is an empty dark cell and constantly being called from people you do not know who are trying to figure out your case. Well, that happened to Adnan Syed in Baltimore, Maryland 1999. In the case of the murder…

Charles Darwin was never a per se psychologist, but his studies and theories has led to some of the best findings of all time and has slowly shaped several fields of psychology. Darwin helped craft the theory of evolution through his examination of natural selection in nature and showed the world how different variations of animals came to be. While his opinion wasn’t very popular during his time it has become more accepted throughout the years with more facts and because of this, is on the…

Riley 1 Why is Evolution so important? Some might ask this because of the confusion drawn over the topic. However it is one of the most intriguing scientific theories that exists today. Evolution is far more interesting than the Theory of Gravity, or Germ Theory. This one addressed many age old questions, such as what is our place in this world, and where did we come from. Some might not accept it because it may conflict with their religion, especially in America, where only 60% of all Americans…

Question 2 Immunotherapy with checkpoint blocking antibodies: A new novel strategy in cancer treatment In addition to conventional methods of cancer treatment, the body’s own immune system can have activity against cancer. It was first hypothesised that some cancers can be recognised by the immune system, a concept known as “immune surveillance” (Burnet, 1970). Studies in animal models have provided support for the idea that pre-established immunity to tumour associated antigens can result in…
