The anthropologist Jared Diamond uses the theory of geographic determinism to answer why some societies are more materially successful than others, in his book. According to him geographical causes are mainly responsible for societal development and responsible for different human civilizations developed in different ways. He provides evidence and reasoning that geography, immunity to germs, food production, the domestication of animals, and use of steel are main drivers for societal success.…

A curfew is thought to be able to keep teenagers out of trouble and inside the house. Trouble does not have a time limit it can occur when ever and however throughout the day. Thinking that setting a time limit will actually keep a child inside is absurd. A child will go where he pleases to go, when his mind is made up nothing can stop him. We are not even talking about little children we are talking about teenagers the most rebellious of human beings. They are at an age where being absolutely…

In Miss Congeniality, Gracie is shown to have unhealthy eating habits unlike the other women in the pageant. This is shown in the scene where Gracie brings a large cheese pizza and beers to the fellow pageant contestants. The other women are shocled by this and say ‘are you crazy?’ and ‘do you know how many calories you’re talking about?’ as they about what the pizza would do to their ideal bodies. Gracie resists her womanhood, but the fact that she had the essential female body is what got her…

How was music created? How did it start? How does it affect people lives? What do people use it for? Well the first instrument to be “invented” is the human voice until someone used thigh bones of a bear in Neanderthal. That was over 50,000 years ago. In today’s society there are so many instruments that people can choose from to create music. There’s the saxophone, guitar, drums and even the triangle. Also, people will use different objects to create music. You will find people playing hands,…

Society is an ever-changing being, it grows and modifies its ideals according to the what people want to see. In the age of the Anglo-Saxons, their people believed in the simple concept that people were either born good or evil and that evil people had no rationality for behaving evil. Modern society is the antithesis and demands reasoning behind a villain's evil doings. The idea of good and evil is much more complex in the current age and we believe that no one is born evil, that there are…

under the umbrella of a single true cause: humanity. The signs are all around us. The Panamian golden frog, the colorful coral reef, the little brown bat of New England, and countless more have disappeared in this lifetime, just as the great auk, Neanderthals, and countless more disappeared in previous lifetimes. Ultimately, Kolbert shows that unless we change our paradigm and our lifestyles, we are en route to disaster. Only through immediate change can we attempt to reverse the harmful…

value of implicit meanings loses its significance. Also, perhaps art is valued because of its historical background and the cultural evidence it conveys. Ever since humans existed they have been always producing some sort of art. Starting from the neanderthals’ cave drawings to our futuristic art today. People intuitively feel to save what belongs to them and that is why the art is valuable and is stored by people. Art is also a way of documenting historical events and that adds another level of…

Furthermore, after Sydney Carton confesses his love for Lucie, he tells her that he is the “one who died young,” and she responds to him by saying that he is “much, much worthier of [himself]” (176). In today’s society people like Mr.Carton, a drunken neanderthal, are disliked and harshly judged by most people. Lucie on the other hand, believes that Sydney is a good person deep down; she doesn't believe he is the person he makes himself out to be, she also doesn't believe that people treat…

Homeless people are the cavemen of the modern era. Scavengers shaped by nature, yet they only find the scraps of what they truly need. They still have to rely on a more evolved creature to ensure their survival. In the new age, the more evolved creatures would be the productive members of society. This working class has a moral obligation to help these modernized cavemen. The working class needs to give the homeless what they need like food, water and clothing, then the homeless can be moved to…

Bioinformatics I, II and Computational Genomics has help me to broaden my knowledge because it forms a connection of how diseases came about and possible cures we can find for any particular disease. For example, my final presentation was based on the Neanderthals and how we inherited genes from them and how we share similar physical…
