than the character of Menelaus had in the Iliad. Huge freak out moment when I saw that Sean Bean (Ned Stark and Boromir) was Odysseus. I absolutely love this actor, and I think he fits perfectly into the film … but not as Odysseus. I agree that he says the right things; however, the actor himself doesn’t fit the role in my opinion. Once again, Odysseus’ physicality is emphasized, not his sharp mind. When Bean talks about his god given gift, it doesn’t seem to fit. He isn’t cunning enough, and…

Being in a fandom is a mentally and physically exhausting yet beautifully rewarding folk group to be a part of. There are an excess of fandoms that I can speak about being in like being a ‘Potterhead’ or a ‘Whovian’ or even better a ‘Trekkie’.

So, now the villagers have a safe place to keep their money. Zach, Sean, Ryan, and Sean personally took out the loan for $125 USD to grow their radishes. By being able to sell those radishes they are increasing their income to almost $2 a day. This is may not seem like much but to them and to poor villagers, it could mean…
Some animals showed changes in metabolic rates in the liver. In addition, animals fed genetically modified organisms had different body weights, showing side effects in organs associated to the toxins in their diet. Smith in his article “Spilling the Beans: Unintended Health Risks” writes that the liver cells in the mouse were different after eating GM soy, but the changes were not present when they switched back to non GM soy.

know is the mistreatment of farm animals. Many people have the misconception that just because meat or animal products are labeled as “organic” it means that the animals aren’t subjected to cruelty and torture. This is false information. According to Sean Carmody, “97% of the 10 billion animals tortured and killed each year are farm…
