Compute any number in the Fibonacci Series easily! Here are two ways you can use phi to compute the nth number in the Fibonacci series (fn). If you consider 0 in the Fibonacci series to correspond to n = 0‚ use this formula: fn = Phi n / 5½ Perhaps a better way is to consider 0 in the Fibonacci series to correspond to the 1st Fibonacci number where n = 1 for 0. Then you can use this formula‚ discovered and contributed by Jordan Malachi Dant in April 2005: fn = Phi n / (Phi + 2) Both approaches

Running head: HELL NO GMO’S1 Hell No GMO’s (Genetically Modified Organism’s) Michael H. Hicks Kaplan University The Non GMO Project defines Genetically Modified Organisms‚ or GMO’s‚ as organisms whose genetic characteristics that have been altered by the insertion of a modified gene or a gene from another organism using the techniques from genetic engineering.

The Battle of Algiers is a fascinating example of the evocation of thought that can be brought out by a film with such power.

Genetically Modified Food Genetically modified foods are food derived from ‘genetically modified organisms’(GMOs). Genetically modified organism had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise than mutagenesis (mutation breeding) where an organism is exposed to radiation or chemicals to create a non- specific but stable change. Other techniques by which humans modify food organism include selective breeding: plant breeding
