Mercutio curses both the Capulets and the Montagues with the phrase “a plague on both your houses”, as he realizes he is dying; this repeated curse foreshadows Romeo and Juliet's tragic fate. Mercutio's speech is composed in a prosaic form that is spontaneous and unpredictable in comparison to the rest of the play, which is poetic and deliberate.

The process of diffusion is the exchange of nutrients and wastes between a cell and its environment. For instance, amoeba, a single-celled microorganism can get all the nutrients it needs and get rid of its wastes through diffusion.

A bar, Rick’s Cafe American, was the main setting, where alcohol, people willing to do anything and everything to obtain exit visas, a murder, corrupted officials and a forbidden romance have been the key elements. Casablanca is like a purgatory where these sins must be traded in order to escape the city. Clearly, these elements were major issues when it came to the Production...

The aspect I admire most about engineering is its problem-solving approach which combines physics and mathematics to face problems of increasing complexity. Engineering is both used to solve human problems as well as satisfy human curiosity. A great example is NASA's rover Opportunity, which survived almost 15 years longer than expected against all odds. We can attribute opportunity's success to the excellent engineering work done which enabled the rover to withstand the harsh conditions on Mars. For instance, its wheels...
