Are humans subject to evolution?
Yes. Although perhaps not to the same extent that other species are subject to evolution. Today, mankind has an unprecedented control over its environment, and an unprecendented ability to travel, to make genes spread over the whole world. But this is a recent development, and there have been millennia in which humans were far less able to adjust their environment to suit their needs. As an example of human evolution, one could point to the spread of lactose tolerance in adults. Historically, mammals suckle when they're young, but no longer tolerate lactose in their adult forms, as their production of lactase, the enzyme used to break down lactose, declines. However, since humans developed agriculture and were able to keep and exploit cattle - some ten to fifteen thousand years ago, lactase persistence has spread from various populations in the world. When one projects the incidence of lactose tolerance in adults against the permeation of agriculture, one can easily see how this trait propagated as a result of natural selection.
What sort of a ruler was Elizabeth 1?
Elizabeth was not a typical women she was not married. She had made loads of enimies. She was a protestant. Elizabeth was the grestest ruler in england, Her reign was an unprecendented period of personal power and success, largely through the charisma of Elizabeth herself. Under Elizabeth, England took its place as one of the leaders of the world, but that success and prosperity also contributed to the changes which heralded the gradual diminution of monarchical power. Because of Elizabeth's personal popularity and political savvy, she was able to avoid most of the problems faced by her successors. But Elizabeth had to sometimes appeal to Parliament for funding to carry out her policies, and their approval wasn't always easily achieved. When her successors on the throne lacked her advantages, the conflicts between Parliament and the monarch became more frequent and rancorous, leading to the Civil War less than half a century after Elizabeth's death. And while the monarchy was restored, the kings and queens who followed had much less power than she did. http://wiki.answers.com/Why_was_queen_elizabeth_the_first_the_greatest_ruler_in_england#ixzz1QIs9g96t
How did joseph Campbell become famous?
Joseph Campbell identified the motif of the Hero's Journey, a theme recurring in myths from a variety of cultures widely separated in time and in space. Whether Gilgamesh, Hercules, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, King Arthur, Superman, or Luke Skywalker, these heroes follow a parallel pattern which Campbell, borrowing from James Joyce, termed the "monomyth" in his seminal work, "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" (published in 1949). Campbell's work has influenced generations of artists, writers, musicians, and filmmakers, including figures such as avant-garde composer John Cage, author Richard Adams (Watership Down), the Grateful Dead, and George Lucas. According to Lucas, the original Star Wars trilogy was grounded in "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" and Campbell's four-volume "Masks of God." Several months after Campbell's death (October 30, 1987), PBS aired "The Power of Myth" - a series of six hour-long interviews of Campbell by Bill Moyers. This series introduced Joseph Campbell's ideas and charismatic personality to the general public, sparking an unprecendented posthumous popular.
How were children affected in World War 1?
the children in the first world war didnt really do anything because they were all evacuated to save them from getting hurt ^^^^ Evacuation procedures were not used in World War 1. In World War 1, younger children would be kept hidden from the war by their mothers, to stop panic from the children. If you were over the age of around 7, you would probably go to work, or help out and fill the missing places of the men at war.

Why is queen Elizabeth considered one of the greatest rulers in England's history?
The answer is subjective, but virtually everyone would at least put her in the top three. I think she is both the British Monarchy's acme, and the Beginning of Its End. Her reign was an unprecendented period of personal power and success, largely through the charisma of Elizabeth herself. Under Elizabeth, England took its place as one of the leaders of the world, but that success and prosperity also contributed to the changes which heralded the gradual diminution of monarchical power. Because of Elizabeth's personal popularity and political savvy, she was able to avoid most of the problems faced by her successors. But Elizabeth had to sometimes appeal to Parliament for funding to carry out her policies, and their approval wasn't always easily achieved. When her successors on the throne lacked her advantages, the conflicts between Parliament and the monarch became more frequent and rancorous, leading to the Civil War less than half a century after Elizabeth's death. And while the monarchy was restored, the kings and queens who followed had much less power than she did.
Entering the World of Game Design?
Prolific readers are often inspired to write their own stories. In the same way, the dream of many gaming enthusiasts is to design their own games. Consider this--Infinity Ward's "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" video game released in November 2009, shattering day-one entertainment records by generating an unprecendented $310 million within the first 24 hours of release. With video game entertainment becoming increasingly profitable, the pursuit of a game design degree becomes increasingly acceptable. Rather than "rotting your brains out," video games can lead to long and lucritive career.Still interested? Check out the game design degrees offered from the following three universities:The Art Institute - With 45 locations across North America, The Art Institutes are a convenient option for many prospective students.

How did you get out of the Great Depression?
In an effort to spur recovery, the admistration of Franklin D. Roosevelt created the New Deal and other government social programs that sought to improve confidence and restore jobs in the economy. It involved the federal government in many areas of banking and industry regulation. Included were the massive public works programs of the WPA (Works Progress Administration) and the rural electric construction of the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority). It also featured the debut of the Social Security system. However, it took a larger economic stimulus, which was World War II, to finally end the Depression. It also included unprecendented spending by the federal government for the war effort. Although dependent on women for the first time as a significant workforce, the war boom got the US out of its economic crisis and established the basis for the modern form of US society.
