Humans are bipedal primates belonging to the species Homo sapiens ( Latin "wise man" or "knowing man") in Hominidae, the great ape family. [2][3] They are the only surviving member of the genus Homo. Humans have a highly developed brain, capable of abstract reasoning, language, introspection, and problem solving. This mental capability, combined with an erect body carriage that frees the arms for manipulating objects, has allowed humans to make far greater use of tools than any other species. Mitochondrial DNA and fossil evidence indicates that modern humans originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago. [4] Humans now inhabit every continent and low Earth orbit, with a total population of over 6.7 billion as of September 2009. [5]Like most higher primates, humans are social by nature. However, humans are uniquely adept at utilizing systems of communication for self-expression, the exchange of ideas, and organization. Humans create complex social structures composed of many cooperating and competing groups, from families to nations. Social interactions between humans have established an extremely wide variety of values, social norms, and rituals, which together form the basis of human society. Humans have a marked appreciation for beauty and aesthetics which, combined with the human desire for self-expression, has led to cultural innovations such as art, literature and music. Humans are noted for their desire to understand and influence their environment, seeking to explain and manipulate natural phenomena through science, philosophy, mythology and religion. This natural curiosity has led to the development of advanced tools and skills, which are passed down culturally; humans are the only extant species known to build fires, cook their food, clothe themselves, and use numerous other technologies. The English adjective human is a Middle English loan from Old French humain, ultimately from Latin humanus, the adjective of homo "man". Use as a noun (with a plural humans) dates to the 16th century.[6] The native English term man is now often reserved for male adults, but can still be used for "mankind" in general in Modern English.[7] The word is from Proto-Germanic *mannaz, from a Proto-Indo-European(PIE) root *man-, cognate to Sanskrit manu-.

1. Shrimad bhagwad geeta: the essence of Hinduism

3. Connecting Your HR Software with the Business

Unlikely? Well no, not as far-fetched as you might have thought. There are quite a few installations where the usage of the system capability is so minimal it might as well not be there!

November 06, 2009
People will either go out of their way to find it and revel in the fact that they're being terrified out of their skulls. Or they'll do whatever it takes to avoid it the way someone with social anxiety avoids parties. Fear is a natural part of the human psyche and has often been cited by philosophers as being among the greatest internal motivators of the human spirit. However, despite the fact that we have extensive knowledge of what terrifies people and how fear can play a game with someone's mental health, we have barely any idea how, exactly, does fear work in the human mind.
