lobbyist each organization has, from which viewers will see that Patton Boggs maintains the most lobbyist with over 150 residing under their management. In figure X2 the same organizations shown in Figure X are displayed in the graph along with the amount of money each distinctive group spends on Lobbyist. With a quick observation at Figure X2 it easily determined that the majority of groups spend in upwards of 15,000 dollars in 2011 to benefit there lobbying. FigureX3 displays the organizations with
The History of Haplogroup X Haplogroup X diverged from Haplogroup N more than 30,000 ybp (Benson and Glad, 2006). Haplogroup N originated in Africa and can be traced back to over 70,000 years ago. There are traces of haplogroup N in Western Asia around 30000 B.C. The atmosphere in Western Asia where haplogroup X originated from was desert-like with grasslands, deserts, and mountains. The summers were hot and dry which included a scorched climate with periods of heavy rain. The living conditions
