The theory of evolution by natural selection, first
formulated in Darwin's book "On the Origin of Species" in
1859, is the process by which organisms change over
time as a result of changes in heritable physical or
behavioral traits. Changes that allow an organism to
better adapt to its environment will help it survive and
have more offspring.
Which of the following best summarizes the mechanism of natural selection?

“Dragons are found in the myths of many cultures and appear in many forms. The name comes from the Greek
word drakon, meaning “snake”. Generally, dragons are portrayed as large, scarly, winged serpernts or reptiles
with sharp claws.
In European myths , dragons are usually carnivorous reptiles with fiery breath. They are generally considered
evil and dangerous. European ( or Western) dragons are said to live in caves or swamps or on mountaintops,
where they often guard treasures. Two of the most famous dragons in European literature are the dragon that
St. George killed and the dragon that killed Beowulf. There are also many stories about medieval knights fighting
dragons.
There are several types of European dragons. The guivre has no legs or wings. It is a large serpent with a wedgeshaped head. The lindworm has one pair of legs but no wings. The Amphiptere is basically a flying snake with
wings but no legs. The wyvern – a particular bloodthirsty type of dragon – has two legs and two wings and a
barbed tail. Heraldic dragons have four legs and two wings. Many noble European families chose this dragon as
their symbol.
The Asian (or Eastern) dragon was also a reptile but often displayed characteristics of other animals, such as
camels, deer, lions, eagles, and bulls. Asian dragons have serpentine bodies, do not usually breath fire, and
generally have no wings. Many have a “lion’s mane” around their neck and a bear aroud their chin. They have
twoo antlers coming from their head and two long whiskers coming from their faces. Asian dragons have 117
scales, 81 infused with yang, the principle of good, and 36 infused with yin, the principle of evil. Their favorite
food is roasted swallows. Asian dragons symbolize power and unlike European dragons, are generally pictured
as good, kind, and intelligent.
There are three families of Asian dragons: three-toed, four-toed, and five-toed. Three-toed dragons are native to
Japan. Four-toed dragons are from Indonesia or Korea. Some Chinese dragons also have four toes, but the
“Imperial dragons” of China have five. Asian dragons come in five colors: blue, White, black, red, and yellow.
Red and black dragons are powerful, but the yellow dragon is the strongest of all. Asian dragons are often
pictured with a pearl in their months, under their chins, or in their claws. The dragon is thought to draw its
strength from this pearl.
Many cultures outside of Europe and Asia also have legends of dragons. In fact, it is hard to find a culture that
does not have a dragon myth. The Piasa (“storm bird”) was a dragon known to the Illini, a Native American group
that lived by the Mississippi River. It had the head of a bear, large teeth, the antlers of an elk, the scaly body of a
fish, and a bear’s leg ending in eagle’s claws. The tail was fifty feet (15 meters) long and was tipped with a
spearhead. It lived in a cave in the cliffs overlooking the river. For many years, the Piasa only hunted buffalos.
Then, it captured an Illini warrior and after that, it developed a taste for humans and began attacking villages.
The Illini chief Ouatoga used himself as a “bait” to lure the beast from its cave. When the dragon stormed out to
attack him, his warriors killed it with a shower of arrows. In Ethiopia, there are stories about a four-winged
dragon, the Ethiopian Dream Snake. These creatures ate poisonous plants to make their bite and scratches
poisonous. They were big enough to kill elephants. Once four of them wove together a raft and sailed to Arabia, Where they thought the hunting would be better. Then there is the Trukh of Madagascar, the Anka of Arabia, the
Vekher (“wind demon”) of Russia, the Demaj of Persia, and the Kululkan of the Aztecs.
The fact that so many cultures have dragons stories in common has led people to wonder if dragons really
existed up the time of the Middle Ages, When they were hunted into extinction. Some people have even wondered
if dragons were the last surviving dinosaurs. Scientists, however, have dismissed this theory as highly unlikely
since there is no fossil evidence to indicate that any dinosaurs lived past the end of the Mesozoic era, 65 million
years ago.”

Schools closed, warnings issued as Asia
swelters in extreme heatwave
South and Southeast Asia braced for
more extreme heat on Sunday as authorities
across the region issued health warnings and
residents fled to parks and air-conditioned malls
for relief.
A wave of exceptionally hot weather has
blasted the region over the past week, sending the
mercury as high as 45 degrees Celsius (113
degrees Fahrenheit) and forcing thousands of
schools to tell students to stay home.
The Philippines announced on Sunday
the suspension of in-person classes at all public
schools for two days after a record-shattering day
of heat in the capital Manila.
In Thailand, where at least 30 people
have died of heatstroke so far this year, the
meteorological department warned of "severe
conditions" after temperatures in a northern
province exceeded 44.1C (111.4F) on Saturday.
And in Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam,
India and Bangladesh, forecasters warned that
temperatures could exceed 40C in the coming
days as people endured searing heat and stifling
humidity.
"I dare not go out in the daytime. I am
worried we would get heatstroke," said a 39
year-old cashier in Myanmar’s Yangon who gave
her name as San Yin.
She said she has been going to a park with
her husband and four-year-old son at night to
escape the heat of their fourth-floor apartment.
"This is the only spot we can stay to avoid
the heat in our neighbourhood," she said.
Global temperatures hit record highs last
year, and the United Nations weather and climate
agency said Tuesday that Asia was warming at a
particularly rapid pace.

Why Fish Swim in Schools

First and foremost, schools protect fish from their enemies.1
It's the same rule our mothers taught us as youngsters, always stay in a group because there is safety in numbers. Predators find it far easier to chase down and gobble up a fish swimming all alone rather than trying to cut out a single fish from a huge group. The same holds in reverse. Fish can better defend their territory in a group. Bullies will think twice about facing an angry school of dozens or hundreds of fish.

Workplace Burnout Survey
Burnout without borders
Deloitte’s external survey explores the drivers and impact of prolonged, unmanageable
stress that may lead to employee burnout.
Deloitte’s marketplace survey on burnout
Professionals today are undoubtedly feeling the pressure of an ‘always on’ work culture, causing stress and sometimes leading to burnout.
Deloitte’s external marketplace survey of 1,000 full-time US professionals explores the drivers and impact of employee burnout, while also providing insight into the benefits and programs employees feel can help prevent or alleviate burnout versus those their companies are currently offering.
The findings indicate that 77 percent of respondents say they have experienced employee burnout at their current job, with more than half citing more than one occurrence. The survey also uncovered that employers may be missing the mark when it comes to developing well-being programs that their employees find valuable to address stress in the workplace.
Additionally, the survey found that:
- Employee burnout has no boundaries: 91 percent of respondents say having an unmanageable amount of stress or frustration negatively impacts the quality of their work. 83 percent of respondents say burnout from work can negatively impact their personal relationships.
- Passion may not prevent workplace stress: 87 percent of professionals surveyed say they have passion for their current job but 64 percent say they are frequently stressed, dispelling the myth that passionate employees are immune to stress or burnout.
- Many companies may not be doing enough to minimize burnout: Nearly 70 percent of professionals feel their employers are not doing enough to prevent or alleviate burnout within their organization. 21 percent of respondents say their company does not offer any programs or initiatives to prevent or alleviate burnout.
- Companies should consider workplace culture, not just well-being programs: One in four professionals say they never or rarely take all of their vacation days. The top driver of burnout cited in the survey is lack of support or recognition from leadership, indicating the important role that leaders play in setting the tone.
- Burnout affects millennial retention: 84 percent of millennials say they have experienced burnout at their current job, compared to 77 percent of all respondents. Nearly half of millennials say they have left a job specifically because they felt burned out, compared to 42 percent of all respondents.

Workplace Burnout Survey
Burnout without borders
Deloitte’s external survey explores the drivers and impact of prolonged, unmanageable
stress that may lead to employee burnout.
Deloitte’s marketplace survey on burnout
Professionals today are undoubtedly feeling the pressure of an ‘always on’ work culture, causing stress and sometimes leading to burnout.
Deloitte’s external marketplace survey of 1,000 full-time US professionals explores the drivers and impact of employee burnout, while also providing insight into the benefits and programs employees feel can help prevent or alleviate burnout versus those their companies are currently offering.
The findings indicate that 77 percent of respondents say they have experienced employee burnout at their current job, with more than half citing more than one occurrence. The survey also uncovered that employers may be missing the mark when it comes to developing well-being programs that their employees find valuable to address stress in the workplace.
Additionally, the survey found that:
- Employee burnout has no boundaries: 91 percent of respondents say having an unmanageable amount of stress or frustration negatively impacts the quality of their work. 83 percent of respondents say burnout from work can negatively impact their personal relationships.
- Passion may not prevent workplace stress: 87 percent of professionals surveyed say they have passion for their current job but 64 percent say they are frequently stressed, dispelling the myth that passionate employees are immune to stress or burnout.
- Many companies may not be doing enough to minimize burnout: Nearly 70 percent of professionals feel their employers are not doing enough to prevent or alleviate burnout within their organization. 21 percent of respondents say their company does not offer any programs or initiatives to prevent or alleviate burnout.
- Companies should consider workplace culture, not just well-being programs: One in four professionals say they never or rarely take all of their vacation days. The top driver of burnout cited in the survey is lack of support or recognition from leadership, indicating the important role that leaders play in setting the tone.
