How Evolution Works the GAME. A must see!!!
KevinPluck has turned this simulation into an
interactive game. You are the predator and
the squares evolve to avoid you eating them.

The world is full of misinformation.
Interesting how most of the Young Earth
Creationists and people pushing Intelligent
Design, clearly don't have an education in
the biological sciences. Evolution is the
product of Natural Selection AND Mutation.
Either alone does nothing.
Evolution is the logical outcome of the world
around us. Organisms that store their genetic
information in DNA are guaranteed to have
mutations. Mutations produce NEW variation.
Reproducing organisms are guaranteed to
compete for resources. Competition between
variable organisms leads to natural
selection, i.e. those organisms that possess
variation that gives then an advantage will
out compete those who don't. Organisms with
deleterious variation will lose to all other
organisms. In this way the ENVIRONMENT
SELECTS the best organisms. This has the
effect of passing beneficial mutations on to
the next generation and removing deleterious
ones. Over time natural selection will lead
to a net shift in the genome of the
population, i.e. evolution.
Yes, this really is evolution. Changes in
allele frequency, changes in gene expression,
and changes in transcription factor binding
efficiency, they are all evolution.
Logic predicts evolution, and observation
confirms it. Evolution has been observed in
the lab and in nature. Speciation
(macroevolution) has been observed in the lab
and in nature. Large changes in appearance
have been observed in the lab and in nature.
Beneficial mutations have been observed in
the lab and in nature.
CORRECTION: Some have noted that Evolution
need not include Natural Selection, as
genetic drift does result in evolution. I
agree that genetic drift is evolution, and
should stress that Natural Selection is just
one mechanism for evolution.
Natural Selection + Random Mutation =
Evolution
Genetic Drift + Random Mutation = Evolution
Both are true.
To see an example of how genetic drift can
lead to a speciation event, i.e.
macroevolution, check out an old video of
mine

To deny evolution is to deny direct
observation. It is as silly as denying that
the sky is blue.

importantly, Think About It.

Orphan Works
Or, How You May Lose All the Rights to Every
Piece of Art You Have Ever Created!
On April 5th, 2008, I interviewed Brad
Holland of the Illustrator's Partnership
about the Orphan Works bill and how it
affects every artist and photographer in the
world.
YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO THIS because you are
about to lose your copyright protection.
Every one of you needs to stand up and be
heard in order to protect what we have all
created.
Please forward this information to every
creative person and group you know. I give
permission for this audio file to be copied
and transferred and replayed so that everyone
may learn about what is going on.

| How the FreeBSD Project Works |

Google Tech Talks
June 20, 2007
ABSTRACT
The FreeBSD Project is one of the oldest and
most successful open source operating system
projects, seeing wide deployment across the
IT industry. From the root name servers, to
top tier ISPs, to core router operating
systems, to firewalls, to embedded
appliances, you can't use a networked
computer for ten minutes without using
FreeBSD dozens of times. Part of FreeBSD's
reputation for quality and reliability comes
from the nature of its development
organization--driven by a hundreds of highly
skilled volunteers, from high school students
to university professors. And unlike most
open source projects, the FreeBSD Project has
developers who have been working...
