Dad, were outta OJ!

ok it's 11 at night and i just drank the last of the orange juice and its raining out so its too wet to go to safeway to get more right now. It will just have to wait till morning, or i could just get some water and give it some time and it will evolve into some orange juice...who knows. Anyways, got some words that i want to define so that everybody knows what they mean or just so that i will know what they mean. Oh and I'm using this handy-dandy huge green "American Dictionary of the English Language" made by Noah Webster in 1828 sitting by the computer.

The equable evolution of the periphery of a circle, or other curve, is such a gradual approach of the circumference to rectitude , as that its parts do all concur, and equally evolve or unbend; so that the same line becomes successively a less arc of a reciprocally greater circle, till at last they change into a straight line. 4) In algebra, evolution is the extraction of roots fro powers; the reverse of involution. 5) In military tactics, the doubling of ranks or files, wheeling, counter marching or other motion by which the disposition of troops is changed, in order to attack or defend with more advantage, or to occupy a different post.

Pelvis---It's a noun-- The cavity of the body formed by the os sacrum, os coccyx, and ossa innominata, forming the lower part of the abdomen.

• Author Richard Walker of 2003 Genes & DNA says that evolution is A gradual process of change that occurs over many generations.

Quick quote from page 37--"Normally evolution is too slow to observe-but bacteria reproduce very rapidly." What????

• Author Paul Fleisher of 2006 Great Ideas of Science says that evolution is Changes in the characteristics of a population over many generations.

Quick quote from page 40--"Feathers, fr example, may have once served for mating display or as insulation to keep dinosaurs warm. Only after millions of years did they evolve to become useful in gliding, & later flying, in their descendants, the birds." Quick quote from page 46--"The fossil record is very incomplete." & "Perhaps intermediate fossils- sometimes called missing links- have simply not been found." Quick quote from page 54--"Biologist still don't know how life began. But they can speculate." Quick quote from page 61--"The first hominids evolved from apes about 4.5 million years ago in Africa."

• Author Robert R. Coenraads of 2005 Rocks & Fossils says on page 242, "Life has evolved like a great branching tree in which all of its different forms are related, having evolved from a common ancestor at the tree's base some 3900 million years back in time. The exact reason or cause of this original event, however remains unexplained."

• The National Geographic Society wrote in the 2007 Body-The Complete Human on page 98, "The coccyx is popularly called the "tailbone", because it is believed to be the vestigial remnant of a tail that disappeared as HomoSapiens evolved."

• Author Richard C. Lewontin of 1981 Discover Biology says, "Evolution is fact, not Theory...Birds arose from non birds and humans from non humans. No person who pretends to any understanding of the natural world can deny these facts any more than she or he can deny that the earth is round, rotates on its axis, and revolves around the sun."

• Lets finish with a great book with a great author, the Bible---Genesis 1:20-23 "And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day."
