There is no mistaking the distinctive sound of a chainsaw, screaming as it bites through a hunk of wood or the bark of a tree. There are even chainsaws which are used to cut through concrete, brick and natural stone. Chainsaws are perhaps one of the most convenient power tools available, and can save a lot of time and effort in construction and felling. Although the origin of the chainsaw is debatable, it is determined that the first chainsaw was made around 1830 by Bernard Heine, a German…

Hominid Evolution is the evolution of human lineage. Dating back millions of years with Sahelanthropus tchadensis, it's the oldest found hominid, dated around 7 million years old. This species is known for its cranium and it's very small brain size, and a specific amount of both jaws and teeth. It has many, ape-like features, such as; small brain size, brow ridges and small canine teeth, which are characteristic of hominids. However, this along with the fact that it comes from around the…

The history of life goes back over a million of years ago. The earliest evidence of humans in Europe, date about 1.8 million years ago (Smiley 2016, unit 11). Many years later, a partial skeleton was found and it was pretty evident that it belonged to an extinct human our closest evolutionary relative (Paabo, 2006). Many species have evolved and changed to what we call modern man. The Neanderthals and the Denisovans are very similar to modern man and are frequently referred to as “early modern…

Australopithecus Afarensis Species and Their Existence Humans are a species of hominidae. A hominid is any one of a family, hominidae, of mammals that includes humans with their extinct ancestral forms. Hominids evolved from each other. Humans have evolved over the millions of years from the first hominid. One of the hominid species that humans have evolved from is the Australopithecus Afarensis. A classification of an Australopithecus Afarensis is a Southern Ape. This species is a…

As mentioned above, the two skulls were compared are Proconsul Africanus (an ape skull) and Gracile Australopithecine (a hominid skull). Proconsul Africanus was from Kenya and lived 23.8-5.3 million years ago. However, Gracile Australopithecine was from Ethiopia and lived 5.3-1.8 million years ago. Based on observation the tooth size is different especially in terms of the canine teeth. The ape skull has large canine teeth whereas the hominid skull has small ones. The brain size of the hominid…

Homosapiens Between 100,000 and 50,000 years ago, Homo sapiens left Africa in search of more space and new habitats to use.On search, some how they met up with the Neanderthals occupying the Middle East and Southern Europe. There’s one hypothesis that suggests that Neanderthals were no match for Homo sapiens. Neanderthals were pushed out of their habitats, and extinct by Homosapiens. Another discovered evidence suggests that, Homo sapiens didn’t leave Africa in large groups, but in smaller…

This device is perhaps one of the most primitive forms of the guillotine seen in the revolution. The maiden, along with the Halifax gibbet, a similar invention, gradually gained popularity, being used in places such as Italy and Switzerland during the 15th century. However, it was not until the 1700's that these machines were altered and improved to become the modern guillotine. Named for Joseph-Ignace Guillotin, a French doctor and member of the Revolutionary National Assembly, he believed that…

Corona Extra Strategy Peter G. Robinson Argosy University CORONA EXTRA STRATEGY The first time I drank a Corona, I thought it was one of the worst beers that I tasted. My friend told me to put a lime in it, and it still tasted terrible. That was fifteen years ago, today, Corona is one of the top selling imported beers in the country. In this paper, I will discuss the strategy of Corona Extra and will look at the demographics and talk about the cultural differences and how the…

Bruno Melofiro Prof. La Puma Due 2/14/13 ENG1121 Tu-Th 11:30 3. Write an essay arguing that “The Storm” is (or is not) immoral, or (a different thing) amoral. Kate Chopin’s story “The Storm” was written in 1989. However, this story was surely very much ahead of its time, as Chopin never found a publisher for it during her lifetime due to the immoral and graphic content of it. “The Storm” was not published until 1969, sixty-five years after her death. Although in…

the transition of regimes. These regimes’ persistence is embedded in their cultural foundations and institutional structure (Yom and Gause, 2012). Elliot Abrams (2012) claims that the historical connection of the Arab monarchies give them their strength and legitimacy. He explains how the monarchy is often sustained by religious belief, and this gives them more legitimacy than any self-appointed strongmen (Abrams, 2012). The rationality paradigm does not appear as an independent category as…
