If we evolved from the apes, why are they still here?
If we evolved from the same animal, why are we so unlike? 
Water apes vs. Land apes..

because we didnt evolve from modern gorillas and chimpanzees and orangutangs. we just share a common monkey-like ancestor.

I look at my nose a lot. I think it might be off-centered. I'm not sure though.

I look at my nose sometimes. I have a scar from chicken pox on it. Sometimes I get blackheads if I don't wash my face enough.
Those are the deepest thoughts I can offer you on my nose.

No, the human nose isn't made for water breathing, nor is it made out of a nose for the water. A water nose is one with close-able flaps that close when under water. Like this:
To get a human nose from a chimp's, you only really have to push back the lower jaw. Then their nose stands out much like a human.
Well, you have to remember that we didn't evolve as 90-100% aquatic creatures like the animal you have pictured there. We were just intimately associated with waterways. And the difference you mention between a chimp and a human is exactly what evolution did to us to give us a better ability to dunk underwater.

the human nose is longer than a chimps because we adapted to colder environments. Humans (i.e. neanderthals) who migrated northe of Africa required more of a barrier between their lungs and the elements. Breathing air through a larger nose warms it up before entering the body. Perhaps this is also why true Africans have such flat noses.
Umm, we didn't evolve from neanderthals. They were a completely different homonid species that we lived concurrently with for a long time. There are actually something like 10 completely different homonid species that are not ancestors of Homosapiens.

"To do right is to know what you want. Now when you are dissatisfied with yourself it's because you are after something you don't really want. What objects are you proposing to yourself? Are they the objects you really value? If they are not, you are cheating yourself. I don't meant that if you chose to pursue the objects you most value, you will attain them; of course not. Your experience will tell you that. But success in getting after much labor what you really don't care for is the bitterest and most ridiculous failure." -George Santayana

That was a really cool read, thanks for posting that link man, this theory seems pretty good, especially w/ the evidance that afar was a lake.

Get that St. Ives Apricot Face Scrub. That works well for prevention. Those little Biore strip things might be girly, but they work for ripping the blackheads out.

I tried the Ives scrub and it didnt do a thing for me, and none of the local stores sell the rip-strips anymore

No?
You have Species A
Then, over time - species A starts to evolve, but, they may start to evolve in different directions. Some, might not evolve at all, and possibly die off/go extinct.
