The Evolution of Beds

Everyone wants the best, most comfortable bed to sleep in. These days, beds come in a multitude of different shapes and sizes, all stating they provide some specific quality to allow the person the best sleep possible. Not only are there many types of beds for adults, there are even specific beds for toddlers. They have special safety rails attached to them. These special guardrails provide the additional protection needed for the constant squirming of little sleeping children and also allow for the first defense from a child wandering around in the middle of the night while his|her parents are sleeping.

The evolution of the bed has come a long way from the days of our ancestors. Back then, humans were much more nomadic so they had to accept what bedding materials were close at hand. Imagine feeling well rested after a long night of laying on twigs and leaves; not a chance! Over time, populations have become more settled and then have they been afforded the opportunity to create a more permanent nightly resting place.

During the colonial farming days, people did not have much time or money to spend on bedding comfort. They were too busy trying to make ends meet tending to their farms by feeding their animals, tilling their land, preparing food from scratch, and sewing their own clothes. At that time, they often provided additional heat to their beds by placing hot coals underneath their beds. Their bedding was often made of straw or feathers and was very rudimentary at best.

Over the years, as the population has grown, businesses began to crop up where they concentrated only on bedding furniture and materials. They began to try different materials to ensure the greatest pleasure and comfort for the user. Newer technologies have allowed synthetic fibers to be used which, in turn, actually have helped certain individuals with allergies to feathers or straw that has been used in the past. Also, with the general population beginning to have some disposable income, great variations began to occur with beds.

Along with an increase of disposable income for many people, an increase of spare time has occurred, too. People began to have time to think of ways to improve their quality of life. A correlation began to develop between many of the aches and pains many people had and the beds they slept in at night. Studies have shown that the position a person slept in would require different densities of material. For instance, if a person slept on their side, they may require a softer surface to allow it to form better to their bodies.

Nowadays, beds are offered with more differentiations than most people even desire. There are soft beds, hard beds, beds with memory foam, beds that can be altered through electronic keypads, and beds that even give a gentle vibration or supplemental heat. Beds have indeed come a long way from the days of old where a person hoped to find some nice, soft, leaves to lay upon.

Connor Sullivan recently researched the cost of installing safety rails and other safety protection items for his company. He had a company install guardrails at his warehouse for the safety of his employees.

Immortality - The Evolution of Human Beings Into Divine Human Beings

There are two types of "evolution" occurring in our species. The first is Darwin's "competitive" evolution that is based on the adage of "survival of the fittest". The second is a Spiritual evolution that entails human beings reclaiming their rightful place in the Universe as the Divine Beings that they (we) are.

Darwin's process is clearly based on a fundamental force called "the fear of not surviving" or death where as the Spiritual Evolution is based on an entirely different and contrary energy which is that of "Life". In other words these two processes are not only driven by contrary forces they are also headed in contrary directions!

It has been proposed that Darwin's process is a normal and positive process for our species. After all, many would say, "hasn't it been this process that has moved us into the technological age with all our wonderful gadgets?". Some would even say that this process is leading us to develop robotic technologies that we will be able to use as the new vehicle for our "souls" to extend our life spans and hence achieve an immortal existence (see "The Age of Spiritual Machines" by Ray Kurzweil). All we have to do is to give up our organic bodies and transfer our consciousness into these shiny robotic shells.

How does this feel to you? Well if you still have a Heart to feel with I think you'll immediately be repulsed by such a prospect.

Well what about the so called "Spiritual Evolution"? Well there is a bit of a twist to this, as far as I am concerned. You see by this I do not refer to what many "spiritualists" or "new age gurus" refer to. In fact I am referring to an entirely different concept. Let me explain.

In this reality we experience daily stresses. Each of these stresses gets recorded as negative memories in our minds/bodies and remain there to form what we call the recorded history of our individual lives.
As you reflect on any part of this life history "video" stored within your mind/body you'll feel your Life Energy being depleted. That is equivalent to you dying!

How does that feel to you? I can guess that you are not pleased with this picture.

You see it is this "recording" process along with the belief that you "cannot change the past" i.e. "you cannot erase the tape" that keeps you on the trajectory of death. This is associated with and generates a sense of fear, sadness, frustration, stuckness, anger, and all of the competitive behaviors that feed into the Darwinian concept of evolution.

What if there was a process (and there is, it's called the Mind Resonance Process®) by which one could erase the "life history videotape" there by reclaiming one's life force energy back into their body? What would this feel like?

Well you already know the answer to that question because that is what all human beings inherently desire within their Hearts.

If you're not tuned into the feeling let me elaborate on it. It makes one feel whole, confident, complete, calm, peaceful, energized, relaxed, resilient, uplifted, loving, happy, joyful, lighter, clear, brighter, radiant, present, grounded, fulfilled, and most importantly "alive"!

How does this prospect feel to you? Good I'm sure! After all isn't this what all of you have been striving for all the while you have inhabited your organic physical bodies? Isn't this what you might define as "success"?

I have been helping individuals achieve exactly this state of "divine" presence. It is not only desirable but it is what it means to be truly human. Having one's Life Energy fully within one's body is our normal divine state. Our so-called reality wrestles it away from us causing us to succumb to fear and death and hence to Darwin's distorted definition of evolution.

True evolution is the process whereby all human beings make a choice to reclaim, once and for all, their rightful claims to their Life Energy rather than have it squandered into destructive and self destructive competitive behaviors which are heading the human species on the road to enslavement within robotic bodies.

The Evolution Revolution on the "Illuminati"

Someone I know via FB recently sent me a link to a video, with an accompanying message: "worth listening to" and "this is what we are up against."

This video was purportedly exposing the "Illuminati"--the recited text a list of ways 'they' are manipulating and controlling the masses, coupled with visual images meant to horrify and incense.

First let me say that the text itself, when examined, contains multiple contradictions and an inherent fallacy that makes the whole exercise a terrible joke. Looked at objectively the 'covenant' is a cunningly contrived discourse whose purpose is obviously to excite those of little understanding or discernment.

(The fact is, there doesn't need to be some elite group of puppet-masters manipulating the masses. The masses are well manipulated by the advertising industry alone. The ads we see every day that tell us in order to be happy we have to look like this, eat that, and drive the other are enough to convince the majority to stay on the treadmill of consumerism: spending one's time, energy and hard-earned money on conforming to the latest idea of 'in' or 'hip'--frittering away one's life chasing the carrot that always stays just out of reach, and burdened by never-ending debt. A slave who imagines he's free.)

What my (I'm guessing well-intentioned) acquaintance and those who spread the alarm about this so-called cabal apparently don't realize, is that by circulating this material they are serving the very purpose of those they condemn: the spread of fear and loathing--exciting the minds of the easily influenced to ineffectual rage. The upshot being that those who engage in this sort of conspiracy theorism are rendered useless in the larger struggle of Ignorance versus Enlightenment:for to engage at all is to concede one's energy to Ignorance. By dwelling on the insanity, or inanity, we feed it energetically (witness the Palin phenomenon), and only by withdrawing one's attention/energy may it be rendered impotent. Where there is no reaction there is no effect.

We are only at effect of that which we acknowledge.

By ceasing to engage in the maelstrom promulgated by the media--whose prime motive is profit, and secondary purpose to engage the populace in the turmoil of opinion, rendering them neutered in the ongoing process of overcoming Ignorance--we take the stand: we use our energy as we WILL, not as you would have us, reactively.

Those that understand this principle of Self-Mastery--and recognize our Oneness--focus their energy and attention on propagating that which fosters Understanding, Harmony & Compassion, for by so doing we eliminate the false barriers that have been erected to divide and conquer, and tip the balance toward the Light.

Be part of this intensifying phenomenon: embrace the Evolution Revolution and allow Consciousness to expand in you.

Animal Poverty and Human Poverty

It was Thomas Malthus who noted that scientists had found that wild plant and animal populations quickly increase if their food supply increases, due to both increased birth rates and decreased death rates. In this way plant and animal species breed themselves poor and only the fittest will survive - and this powers 'natural selection' of the 'fittest' which enables evolution. So wild plant and animal populations grow easily and follow the Malthus law of biological poverty, driving biological progress for plants and animals so that poverty is good for progress ! And controvertially Malthus claimed that this applied to humans also.

An Essay on the Principle of Population, Chapter 1 (Malthus 1798) ;
"Through the animal and vegetable kingdoms, nature has scattered the seeds of life abroad with the most profuse and liberal hand. She has been comparatively sparing in the room and the nourishment necessary to rear them .... The race of plants and the race of animals shrink under this great restrictive law. And the race of man cannot, by any efforts of reason, escape from it. Among plants and animals its effects are waste of seed, sickness, and premature death. Among mankind, misery and vice. The former, misery, is an absolutely necessary consequence of it."

Malthus claimed that, like wild plants and animals, human populations also always follow this law of biological poverty and breed themselves poor. And certainly in primitive societies it is often the case that increased food supply does give a population increase, and a decreased food supply does give a population decrease, so that primitive human societies do seem to breed themselves poor in line with the Malthus law of biological poverty.

However, Malthus failed to notice that domesticated plant and animal populations instead follow human wishes and planning, so cow populations do not follow natural food supply biologically and they mostly escape poverty. For humans, Malthus biological poverty can only apply with certainty to societies that have little understanding of conception, for humans who do understand how babies are made can make choices that change birth rates. And humans can of course also make choices affecting death rates, even in primitive societies.

Hence though some human societies can indeed suffer Malthus biological poverty, this does not always apply. And not only is there little evidence of more modern human evolution or progress being chiefly driven by poverty, but there is strong evidence of more modern human civilisations progressing chiefly on the basis of excess wealth - so that human poverty now at least is bad for progress !

Natural Weight Loss With the Evolution Diet in 30 Days

How many diets have you tried?

Have you tried surviving on cabbage soup or eating nothing but protein? Most people have tried all sorts of elaborate diets but end up either putting on more weight, having extreme cravings or feeling so sick that they just can't continue.

Over the years of working in the health and fitness industry, I've discovered what fat loss programmes work through scientific research and trial and error. My evolution diet I have found to be by far the most effective and as you read on you will see why. For me, this isn't even a diet but a healthy eating plan that I personally employ on a day to day basis.

Evolution explains why most diets fail

We only have to look back at our evolution to see why most diets fail. Many diets rely on a starvation principle that heavily limits the amount of calories you can consume on a daily basis. This does cause weight loss short term by muscle wastage and water loss but very little of this weight is actual fat. These starvation diets actually cause us to store fat for survival and in turn put on more weight in the long term.

Heavy calorie reduction causes a severe reduction in leptin (protein), which in turn signals a starvation response in our body. This response reduces our metabolic rate and increases our hunger. It is believed that this response originates back to our ancestors and the "Hunter Gather Days", when food was often scarce. Our body's developed a way to conserve its most valuable energy source, body fat, in order to survive longer.

So starvation or heavy calorie restricted diets are not the answer. Not only do these diets cause you to put on more fat in the long term (yo yo dieting) but they also slow down your metabolism, the exact thing you need to increase to burn more fat.

The best way to diet is to eat natural

Everyone is different and we all have different requirements for vitamins, minerals and general nutrients; a lot of this is determined by our genetics and cannot be changed. However, we do all have one thing in common - we evolved eating natural foods. Foods that we picked from trees & bushes, dug out of the ground or animals that we chased down and killed.

Although the world has evolved at a very rapid rate our bodies have not. We are still uncomfortable sitting for long periods of time, require regular exercise, get headaches and eye problems using computers, suffer in really over crowed areas etc.

Our body's still crave and require the natural foods we ate and drank many years ago. Processed foods, simple sugars, contaminated water, and artificial stimulants are still alien to our bodies. All of these unnatural products (toxins) are stored in our fat cells while our body decides what to do with them.

We are suffering from an internal anxiety as our body stores toxin after toxin.

Following this diet will strip you of this toxic fat.

Follow this diet for 30 days and your body will release all of these toxic fat cells. The ugly fat will disappear! In order to achieve this you need to return to the natural foods that we have evolved to eat and process comfortably.

Evolution Vs Creationism

This debate has been around for a long time. For hundreds of years, people from both sides have been bitterly squabbling about the origins of human existence, with no end in site. The Internet is full with people's strong, heavily biased opinions on the matter, often with no neutral view point. This is why this article was written!

The following article will try to explore the differences between the two viewpoints, whilst trying to remain unbiased. But ultimately only you know what you believe. Evolution or Creationism?

You are probably reading this article with one of these conflicting viewpoints. I advise for the next few minutes that you put your biased opinions to one side so that we can make a more informed analysis of this debate. By doing this, it will allow you to see the point of view from the other side, perhaps not agreeing, but ultimately understanding how and why they have come to their opinions.

Opposing views between people that support evolution and people that support creationism have raged over the last hundred years, becoming more heated within the last few years. Internet forums are full of people squabbling between the two, but what exactly are they squabbling about?

Evolution and Creationism have different standpoints about the emergence of us, human beings. This could even be expanded to the emergence of the universe in it's entirety. So, how exactly do they differ? Well simply, evolution tries to explain our origins through scientific method, coming to the conclusion that we and everything else evolved over time, to become who and what we are today. Creationism tries to explain our origins through religious beliefs, concluding that we and everything else was created by God. It's clear to see why these contrasting viewpoints are so passionately debated, so let's look at each perspective a little closer.

Evolution

The Theory of Evolution was originally suggested by Charles Darwin in 1859 when his book 'The Origin of Species' was first published. This book challenged the fundamental belief that God created everything as it was stated in the Bible. Darwin himself was deeply religious, with his own work going against everything that he believed in, so much so that it took him 20 years of inner turmoil to build up enough courage to publish.

Darwin's life work led him to the conclusion that all life evolved over time gradually. During his many years travelling the world, he found evidence that suggested this theory. His visits to remote and isolated islands, like the Galapagos Islands, were of particular interest to him. These 'geologically new' islands were full of interesting and diverse sets of animals that seemed to branch off from much older forms of wildlife found elsewhere. More so, this was evident when he visited Australia, where kangaroo's and platypus's seemed so different, that it was as though two different creators had been at work. He began to conclude that the isolation of these groups of animals was a contributing factor in the development of these diverse creatures.

Darwin was also a keen geologist and fossil collector. During his travels, he found many new fossils of long extinct creatures, that were unknown at the time. A lot of people were excited at these new discoveries of unusual creatures that had died long ago, but Darwin was more interested in 'why' they had become extinct. He suggested that these animals had died off due to competition for natural resources like food, from better adapted animals. This was the initial idea that, over time, resulted in Darwin coining the phrase "Survival of the Fittest".

Darwin began to see the connection between creatures evolving over time and "Survival of the Fittest". If a species can't adapt to it's changing environment adequately, then it will begin to die out due to competition from other species. This all seemed very logical, however he then began to ask how we, 'human beings' fit into this theory.

As stated previously, Darwin was a deeply religious man. It is with no surprise then, that Darwin struggled to come to terms with the notion that Humans could have evolved. This went against everything that he believed in, yet he wanted to see how, and indeed if, his theory applied to humans. Darwin began to gather evidence from numerous sources that humans are just another form of animal. It had already been shown that anatomically, humans are almost identical to apes and other forms of primate, so Darwin suggested that with the addition of sexual selection and a large amount of time, it could be traced back that the two had a common ancestor.

Darwin is famous for first suggesting the 'Theory of Evolution', but it was at the time mainly just a theory. In science, a theory will only ever be theory until it is proved with overwhelming evidence. So since Darwin died, many scientists have set out to seek evidence that either proves or disproves this. This is why today, evolution is not seen to be a theory anymore. Mountains of evidence that proves this has been found in every corner of the world. Scientists from all countries and religious backgrounds have been able to find evidence that supports evolution, and with the continuing improvement of technology, this has been shown to be true at genetic levels.

Creationism

Creationism is probably most closely linked to Christians, but other forms of religion do have their own interpretations of creation. The Bible clearly states that God created the world and everything in it. We are created in Gods image, not that of an ape.

Many creationists find it hard to comprehend the idea of evolution, particularly the evolution of humans. The belief in God and the spirituality that they hold in high regard help to shape their world and philosophy. To divert against this could be seen as loosing faith, faith that encourages a person to live a morally good life by teaching them to be good.

Some argue that science doesn't have, and can never answer certain questions, therefore a higher power must be responsible. This, to a certain extent, is a valid point. Some questions, especially philosophical questions, will never be answered because there is no right or wrong answer. One question that has nagged human kind is that of "Why are we here?" or "What is the meaning of life?". A scientist may approach this in a scientific way, but it would seem to be impossible to prove. You yourself can only answer these questions, as these questions are of a very personal nature. However, just because science can't answer certain questions, doesn't mean it never will be able to.

Conclusion

This debate will continue for a long time to come. However I do believe that some people purposely add fuel to the fire and total dismiss another persons point of view. If you support evolution, you shouldn't dismiss someone's religious views, as that is totally disrespectful. However, this can be be applied the other way, that if you believe in creationism, you shouldn't just dismiss scientific evidence because you don't agree with it.

Science has played a huge part in shaping our modern world and will continue to do so in the future. Scientists don't claim to know everything and often do get things wrong. Perhaps evolution will be proved to be incorrect in the future, but if it is, it will be proven with vast amounts of scientific evidence to support it.

Religion has also helped create our modern society in which we live in. It has given us a moral code in which to live our lives by and can be argued that a lack of it could lead us to lead immoral lives. In certain circles atheists are seen to be evil, whereas in reality just because you may not believe in a higher power, doesn't mean that you are going to live a life without any morals.

I personally support evolution because this gives us a scientific understanding of who we are and where we have come from. I personally find that more spectacular than having been created. To have evolved from being an animal to being the custodians of our planet and everything on it. To gaze into the night sky and look forward to the future of the human race that spans the stars. I also believe that a higher power may have been responsible for creating the big bang, which could be seen to support a creation viewpoint. I like to think that if God created us, he chose to give us an inquisitive mind. It is this mind that fuels our curiosity to seek out and understand the world around us. But that is my opinion, what is yours? Do you believe in creationism or evolution?

The Cenozoic of the Earth

Important sediments containing fossils of land as well as marine mammals are characteristic for that time period. It was time of formation of mountains such as Alps, Pyrenees, and Himalayas, and of other movements of the earth's crust. A prominent depression of the earth's surface extended from the Mediterranean across Europe all the way to Norway. From time to time, sea waters penetrated far inland. Volcanic activity was quite common at that time.

During the early Tertiary era the climate was still warm, almost tropical. Mighty forests flourished and produced raw material for today's bituminous coal deposits in northern Europe and North America. During that time, however, a gradual cooling trend set in and the pole was covered by ice for the first time. Steppes were forming in the Mediterranean and the sea levels fluctuated. Shallow coastal seas containing numerous sedimentary deposits were constantly forming. Rhine and Parisian basins are examples of these formations.

Fossils of that time, which differ greatly from the fossils of the Cretaceous, attest to a prominent evolution of mammals. They spread all over the globe by adapting to the diverse conditions on land, in the water and in the air. Primitive forms of animals similar to rodents, marsupials, and insectivores were among the mammals of the earlier Tertiary era.

Unable to compete with the placental mammals, the marsupials soon died out. They survived to the present time only in Australia, which was already separated from the continent, thus no small mammals could colonize that part of the world.

Insectivores are perceived as the initial form in the evolution of modern proboscideans, fliers (chiroptera), rodents, primates, beasts of prey (creondots), and ungulates (condylarthra). Permanent addition to the different modern animal kinds, in particular during the later Tertiary era, was supported by the climate changes. For example, when the American continent lifted, the climate there became drier. Forests gave way to extensive lowlands covered by grassy prairies. In the open spaces, the beasts of pray could detect easily the insectivores. Only the fastest ones could escape. Animals that could run on their toes were faster and evolved into the ungulates.

The mammals dominated the oceans as well. Sirenians (sirenia), whales, and seals evolved independently of each other. They shared their environment mainly with bony fish, which already included prehistoric forms of bass, pike, herring, eel, tench, and barbel. In the meantime, the reptiles of the earth's Mesozoic died out. Only turtles, crocodiles, therapsids, snakes, as well as certain amphibians such as frogs and turtles, survived. In the case of birds, the majority of the orders, to which the birds of today belong, evolved at that time.

During the Tertiary, the insects were evolving also. Fossils of mosquitoes, beetles, dragonflies, ants, crickets, and bees were found. The flowers of the angiosperms provided new sources of nutrition supporting their evolution.

Angiosperms formed a new group of plants. Although the earlier ones persisted, their share in the total vegetation was decreasing. In the second, cooler period of the Tertiary, coniferous forests were growing mainly in the northern latitudes. This is where amber, in which many insects were captured, was formed.

Quaternary (kvarter, Latin for fourth system) is the youngest and simultaneously the shortest period of time in the history of our earth. It is divided into Pleistocene, which started some 2 to 2,5 million years ago. and approximately 10.000 years ago entered the present geological time called Holocene.

Although this time period is very short when compared to the age of the earth, it is of special significance because humans evolved during this period. The Quaternary, therefore, is denominated as the time of "human formation" (Anthropozoic). A fast-changing climate was another reason for delimiting this period.

Throughout almost the entire history of the earth the climate - at least at latitudes close to the equator - was evenly tropical and warm. During the Quaternary the cold and warm time periods began to alternate. The first ice age occurred as early as 600.000 years ago in the northern hemisphere. That is why the beginning of the Pleistocene was originally set at that time. A longer-lasting period of cooling, however, preceded the ice age, and the beginning of that period was therefore set at approximately 2 million years ago.

The cool periods had a profound impact on the flora and fauna, while during the warm periods the temperatures were similar to what we experience today. Eurasian plants and animals could not recede easily to the south due to impassable mountains such as Alps and Carpathians, which were covered by ice. In North America, however, they could retreat all the way to the Gulf of Mexico and when the ice age concluded, they would expand again in northerly direction. This is why we find a greater diversity of species in North America than in Europe where, according to estimates, 50 to 80 percent of different species died out.

The fauna left behind fossils, which are classified by warm and cold periods. The warm periods are characterized by forest elephant and forest rhinoceros. In addition, the prehistoric form of our domesticated gaur, prehistoric gaur, lived in this warm climate.

In cold periods, the predominant animals were the mammoth, which developed from the genus Elephantidae, giant deer, muskox, reindeer, and woolly rhinoceros. In addition, cave bear and lion inhabited the cool tundra. Some of these animals froze so quickly that the contents of their stomach were preserved.

The evolution of the humans is also closely linked to the ice age. The human environment narrowed as a consequence of more inclement weather and the ice masses which covered the continents, especially in the northern regions. As the seas receded, the humans discovered new places to live. They found sufficient food supply on the coasts in the form of fish, shells, and marine mammals. The humans settled on the islands of south Asia, as well as Australia and America (by crossing a land bridge called Beringia).

During the Holocene, there was a new global warming and the latest melting of the ice masses, up to this point in the history of the earth, took place. Reindeer and muskox followed the retreating ice. Mammoth, woolly rhinoceros, and giant deer probably did the same. It is still unclear why these animals died out. The successful hunting activities of the humans during the Stone Age may have been a contributing factor.

Retreating glaciers left moraines in the foothills of Europe, Asia, and North America. The sea level rose again and the climate turned more humid. Numerous lowlands became swamps. The plants again grew faster and larger, and new forests flourished. In addition to birches and conifers, which already existed in the latter part of the ice age, there were new forests of beech and oak.

The humans started to engage in agriculture and animal husbandry. They cleared forests and had an indelible impact on both fauna and flora.
