Water covers 75% of our planet, it is the simplest chemical compound we know and studied, which, made it so exceptional molecule. It is so common we get used to it, it is all around us, all the time, therefore, we treat it as something normal, out of ordinary.

Obraz
The rape is an brutal and ruthless attack, assault. To classify an act of sexual violence as rape there are three factors that have to be taken into account: -           carnal knowledge; -           force; -           commission without consent. To give a clear picture of rape all the three factors will be scientifically explained. Carnal knowledge is a slightest penetration of the labia minora by penis; ejaculation is not always present.

Obraz
I have yet to come with a book as good as this one. It describes the power and alienation, nightmarish world of injustice or rather justice in injustice!

He began to write in 1908, as ...
