Evolution does not teach that humans evolved from present-day monkeys rather that humans and monkeys share a common ancestor that gave rise to both. New species evolve by splintering off from established ones, when populations of organisms become isolated from the main branch of their family and acquire sufficient differences to remain forever distinct. The parent species may survive indefinitely thereafter, or it may become extinct.

No, because all our primates and birds are disease free. We don’t allow touching and feeding so our primates and birds cannot ‘catch’ or pass on any diseases to or from human visitors. See similar questions...

We do not remove monkeys from the wild. The TNPRC has a self-sustaining breeding colony of rhesus monkeys. We do obtain some monkeys from captive breeding colonies at other facilities to provide necessary genetic diversity. See similar questions...

It never ceases to amaze my how many hams have nothing better to do than stick their own call into Google to see how internet famous they are. Since GoogleBot digs pretty deep on this web site, sooner or later all the Cluster Monkeys wind up on my Complaint Form page. Sure, I'll take it out, if you ask nice and leave a valid email address that I can reply to.

About one in five people infected by the virus develop West Nile fever, a typically mild illness that causes fever, muscle aches, fatigue, headache and joint pain. These persons recover fully and do not require hospital care. A smaller number of infected persons, 1%, develop encephalitis or meningitis with symptoms of high fever, neck stiffness, confusion, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, and paralysis.

No, and we have our doubts about any group that claims a direct connection to the original Druids; the evidence simply doesn't support such claims. The AODA was originally chartered in 1912 in Boston, Massachusetts, as the American branch of the Ancient and Archaeological Order of Druids, which was founded in 1874 in London by Robert Wentworth Little.

Both the Qur’an and the Old Testament tell the story of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar. While some Jews and Christians are descended from Abraham and his wife Sarah through their son Isaac, certain Arab Muslims trace their lineage back to Ismail, Abraham’s first-born son by his Egyptian servant, Hagar. In a religious rather than genealogical sense, Muslims thus see themselves, as well as Jews and Christians, as “children of Abraham.” See similar questions...

There is one excellent one that I know of. The MCA home page for Twelve Monkeys has lots of neat stuff, even a FAQ with four questions answered by David and Janet Peoples. The two entry points that I find interesting are the Main Page , and a lower-level page with an animated picture at the top. See similar questions...

The dancing monkeys or, if we're being cultural, les singe qui dansent , are those London.pm members who on any given subject will make a lot of noise, offer suggestions, make proclamations, fling faeces, indignantly post about people who they perceived have slighted them, the list, the IRC channel or Perl in general and, by and large, create more noise than signal.

If you are of European ancestry, yes, it is possible. Both Charlemagne and William left progeny--sometimes illegitimate--who have descendants living today. In medieval Europe, illegitimacy had a more strictly legalistic significance than today, relating to automatic inheritance under either primogeniture or division of legacy. Many illegitimate lines are well known and traced. See similar questions...

Though no records survive to confirm or deny it, the Fighting Tigers are--ironically-- most likely descended from the Ultramarines, one of the Space Marine Chapters they consider enemies. How could that be? Easily. According to the 2nd Edition Ultramarine Codex, the Ultramarines survived the Horus Heresy intact and went on to found three-fifths of all Space Marine Chapters (around 600 of them).

Unlikely. Many Harringtons stem from one of several lineages, including the Benjamin Hernden (or Herendeen, et al.) of Rhode Island line and the Robert Harrington of Watertown line. These two men were contemporaries in the 1600's and many researchers have claimed them to be related, either as brothers or as uncle and nephew, but there is still some uncertainty of this link. Both are the immigrant ancestors of their lines. See similar questions...

There is no vaccine for humans against avian flu. The vaccine against human influenza virus does not protect against avian flu. See similar questions...

Studies done in laboratories suggest that the prescription medicines approved for human flu viruses should work in preventing bird flu infection in humans. However, flu viruses can become resistant to these drugs, so these medications may not always work. Additional studies are needed to prove the effectiveness of these medicines See similar questions...

The risk from bird flu is generally low to most people because the viruses occur mainly among birds and do not usually infect humans. However, during an outbreak of bird flu among poultry (domesticated chicken, ducks, turkeys), there is a possible risk to people who have contact with infected birds or surfaces that have been contaminated with excretions from infected birds.

If Avian Influenza changes and becomes contagious human to human it would start a flu pandemic. An especially severe influenza pandemic could lead to high levels of illness, death, social disruption, and economic loss. Everyday life would be disrupted because so many people in so many places become seriously ill at the same time. Impacts can range from school and business closings to the interruption of basic services such as public transportation and food delivery. See similar questions...

While no studies have been done to assess the effectiveness of Prozac as a neuro-protective agent against MDMA neurotoxicity in humans, there is no reason to suspect that human brains react differently than animal brains in this regard. Animal research has shown that combining the prescription drug Prozac with MDMA prevents neurotoxicity, even when Prozac is taken up to six hours after the MDMA. See similar questions...

Symptoms of bird flu reported in humans have ranged from typical influenza-like symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat, and muscle aches) to eye infections, pneumonia, acute respiratory distress (difficulty breathing), viral pneumonia and other severe and life-threatening complications. Only if you have recently returned from travel to an area where bird flu is present. Depending on your symptoms, dates of travel, and activities, additional testing might be recommended.

In the U.S., CWD has been killing deer and elk since 1967. In spite of ongoing surveillance for similar disease syndromes in humans, there has never been an instance of people contracting a disease from butchering or eating meat from CWD-infected animals. A World Health Organization (WHO) panel of experts reviewed all the available information on CWD and concluded that there is no scientific evidence that the disease can infect humans.
