George Cuvier was a French naturalist, zoologist and most of all, he was an anatomist who did not believe in evolution and believed that consecutive changes in a species was caused by a major catastrophe and this thinking stradey was called Catastrophism . Cuvier was born on August 23, 1769 in Montbeliard, France and was given the name, Jean-Leopold-Nicholas-Frederic Cuvier at birth. Cuvier went to Carolina Academy of Stuttgart from 1784 to 1788, to where he studied anatomy. After he graduated, Cuvier became a tutor for a noble family in Normandy from 1788 to 1795 and while working as a tutor, he made notes on marine invertebrates. Cuvier's notes were then sent to Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, a professor zoology at the Museum of Natural History
According to http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/consequences-not-eating-healthy-5078.html, “Unhealthy eating is responsible for a plethora of health problems that plague today's society. An unhealthy diet is a major risk factor for obesity, nutritional deficiencies and several chronic diseases.” In 1984, the Culver family opened a restaurant in in their hometown; Sauk City, Wisconsin. Using their favorite treat, custards, and their mother's recipes George and Ruth started the restaurant with no previous training. The restaurant soon turned into a great success across 24 states. Culver’s is not a healthy place to eat because the meals have too many calories, too much fat, and too much sodium.

Darwin was the British naturalist who became famous for his theories of evolution and natural selection. Like several scientists before him, Darwin believed all the life on earth evolved over millions of years from a few common ancestors. From 1831 to 1836 Darwin served as naturalist aboard the H.M.S. Beagle on a British science expedition around the world. In South America Darwin found fossils of extinct animals that were similar to modern species. On the Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean he noticed many variations among plants and animals of the same general type as those in South America. The expedition visited places around the world, and Darwin studied plants and animals everywhere he went, collecting specimens for further study.
Titles and awards do not define whether or not a person has left an impact on the world, it is the lasting effect of their actions that prove they have produced change. Princeton alumnus George Shultz’s life has been dedicated to the production of change. From a young age Shultz embodied the new Princeton motto “Princeton in the Nation’s service and the Service of Humanity.” Shultz’s military service, accomplishments as Secretary of State, and continued dedication to change showcases Shultz’s positive impact on not only the United States, but the world.

Yaletown has come a long way over the past few decades. What was once unused industrial land and empty warehouses has now been transformed into one of the most densely populated and livable neighbourhoods in all of Vancouver. This is all due in large part to the vision of the city and its long-term plans for Yaletown. Part of what makes Yaletown such a popular place to live is its attention to green space and the incorporation of parks as well as many different recreation opportunities. Here is a quick overview at some of the more popular parks and greenspaces in and around the neighbourhood as well as some of the recreation activities in Yaletown.
Starting over 500 years ago with Nicolaus Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Francis Bacon, and Isaac Newton paving the way for the possibility of new scientific exploration into studies such as “stratigraphy, the study of the rock and soil layers of the earth” by Robert Hooke and Carolus Linnaeus’ study of taxonomy, “the system of naming and classifying organisms” based on morphological similarities and differences, humanity would begin to uncrack the code of where life came from in a nonbiblical sense. (Fuentes, 26) Further studies by George-Louis Leclerc – Comte du Buffon, Erasmus Darwin (Charles’ grandfather), Georges Cuvier, James Hutton and Charles Lyell as well as Jean Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet – Chevalier de Lamarck’s studies in which he “correctly identified the environment as a challenge to organisms and adaptation as the result of changing to meet environmental challenges” helped prompt the formulation of the current understanding of evolution by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace each in their own special way.
