There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, while this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.

Notebook 'B', as he labelled it, is now often – not quite accurately – cited as the place where Darwin first hit upon his theory of evolution by natural selection. It owes this fame to his 'tree of life' diagram, which shows multiple species diverging from a common ancestor, some falling extinct as others survive.
The laconic opening – 'I think' – describes process, rather than conclusion, and this diagram didn't represent the end point of his quest, but a staging post.

“Lost in awe at the beauty around me, I must have slipped into a state of heightened awareness. It is hard – impossible really – to put into words the moment of truth that suddenly came upon me then. Even the mystics are unable to describe their brief flashes of spiritual ecstasy. It seemed to me, as I struggled afterward to recall the experience, the self was utterly absent: I and the chimpanzees, the earth and trees and air, seemed to merge, to become one with the spirit power of life itself. The air was filled with a feathered symphony, the evensong of birds. I heard new frequencies in their music and also in singing insects’ voices – notes so high and sweet I was amazed. Never had I been so intensely aware of the shape, the color of the individual leaves, the varied patterns of the veins that made each one unique. Scents were clear as well, easily identifiable: fermenting, overripe fruit; waterlogged earth; cold, wet bark; the damp odor of chimpanzee hair, and yes, my own too. And the aromatic scent of young, crushed leaves was almost overpowering.
That afternoon, it had been as though an unseen hand had drawn back a curtain and, for the briefest moment, I had seen through such a window. In a flash of “outsight” I had known timelessness and quiet ecstasy, sensed a truth of which mainstream science is merely a small fraction. And I knew that the revelation would be with me for the rest of my life, imperfectly remembered yet always within. A source of strength on which I could draw when life seemed harsh or cruel or desperate.”

Homo heidelbergensis
Homo heidelbergensis es una especie extinta de humano que se ha identificado tanto en África como en el oeste de Eurasia desde hace unos 700.000 años en adelante hasta hace 200.000 años, por lo que encaja cómodamente en el Pleistoceno Medio. Estos homininos, que reciben su nombre por un pedazo de mandíbula hallada cerca de Heidelberg, Alemania, ocupan un lugar intrigante y muy debatido en el lío de la evolución humana; en general, se considera que se desarrollaron de Homo erectus y dieron lugar a Homo sapiens en África y a los neandertales en Europa. Sin embargo, exactamente cómo o por qué ocurrió esto (o incluso si ocurrió) es un tema muy debatido, y lo mismo es válido para la definición precisa de esta especie, por ejemplo, qué fósiles deberían incluirse y cuáles no.

L'Homme de Néandertal
L'Homme de Néandertal (ou Néandertalien) est un groupe disparu d'hommes fossiles apparus en Eurasie occidentale à la moitié du Pléistocène chibanien et qui partagea la scène avec les premiers humains modernes arrivés en Europe il y a environ 45 000 ans, avant de disparaître du record fossile il y a environ 40 000 ans. Les Néandertaliens étaient un groupe très prospère, s'étant bien adapté au climat imprévisible d'une région où les avancées et les retraits des calottes glaciaires étaient des événements courants. Leur taille courte et trapue les rendait robustes et puissants, tandis que leurs gros cerveaux alimentaient leur capacité de chasser même les plus grandes créatures de l'âge glaciaire comme les mammouths ou les rhinocéros laineux.

Duck fat is so delicious with green beans. It's also good in risottos. It adds a unique flavor. It's not good with everything, but it adds a unique umami twist to a few dishes.
