some students claim‚ no group of students successfully identify what leads to Oedipus’ tragic circumstances. Oedipus’s actions cause the discovery of his marriage to his mother and killing of his father‚ not because his behavior is unethical and deserving of punishment‚ as Dodd’s students’ suggest‚ but because he gains control over the people of Thebes and values himself over the Gods‚ angering the Gods. The Gods‚ having instilled fear in all people‚ have cruelly expressed their superiority in the

amazed with how the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) played with the designs by combining the wildlife symbols with the pictures of country’s natural wonders printed at the back of the bill. Thumbs up for the mere fact that they considered the MOST deserving symbols and not just the famous ones we’ve already seen! However‚ for me‚ the color is too bright that it looks like play money. This new design of the peso bill also earned much criticism from the Filipinos. The said bills were allegedly ‘riddled
