How is it established that the IQ of sir Issac Newton was 190?

It's just a guess.  Keep in mind too, that intelligence tests don't score that high anyway.  The Wechsler tests (WISC-IV, WAIS-III) go up to an IQ of 145 and the Stanford-Binet goes to 150.   (So when you see actors on talk shows that they were tested when young and had an IQ over 200- they are lying.)  IQ tests have these ceiling limits because it would not make financial sense to invest the money to develop items that could discriminate between individuals with higher IQ's, and it would be too difficult to individuals with higher IQ's to use in the norm group.

Which team will score the most goals in 2006 World Cup?


Who is better, System of A Down or My Chemical Romance?

My Chemical Romance. Their songs have so much meaning behind it...not just the Ghost of You and Helena...but also one of their best song Headfirst for Halos. It's about suicide and how people should not do it. They have a purpose for their band and play to help people...so to me they are the best!


The old American League Washington team was called both the Nationals and the Senators at various times in their history.  Even when they were the Senators, newspaper vernacular referred to them as the "Nats" in their headlines in the same way that the Red Sox are called the Bosox and the Yankees are called the Yanks.  Being an old time baseball traditionalist, I don't mind the Nationals being called that.  In fact, it makes more sense now that they are in the National League.

Why isn't there an "Easter" sub-category under "Holidays"?  Is Yahoo! short for ACLU?

I was wondering the same thing myself when I asked some 'Easter' questions yesterday. The only thing I can think of,is that it is a religious holiday,and not everyone celebrates Easter. \n\n As for being associated with the ACLU? For the people that don't seem to know what this is,it stands for :American Civil Liberties Union.\n\nGood question! I wish I had a more definite answer for you! Zoya.


Whenever i meet a guy i really like him for a week, then i find things wrong with him. Why?

If you're really finding stuff out that you don't like about a guy after you've been dating for only a week, then it probably means you two are just not right for each other.\n\nHowever, if that happens every single time you start dating somebody, then you might need to do some looking into the mirror to see why you can only seem to focus on the flaws a person has, rather than appreciating the good points they bring to the table. Maybe you have commitment issues, or perhaps you are just naturally pessimistic, which causes you to focus on the negative. But whatever it is, self-reflection can make you aware that you do it, and then you can make an effort to work through it.


What does the word "Mastisol" mean?  Cant find it in the dictionary.?


Some e-mails that I receive contain something I can't see.   It's a box with an X in upper LEFT corner.

It does not necessarily mean it is a attachment. \n\nThere could be a couple of reasons\n\n1. You may have a security block on any graphics- I get the same thing because I use Incredimail so it will block the graphics unless I select to see them first.\n\n\n2. The picture that someone is trying to send to you may have a link to it and the server is unable to locate the pic.\n\nThat is what the red X means

what are the general characteristics of tropical cyclone??????????

Well, first off it's probably in the tropics...  ;)\n\nI cut and pasted this part (sorry, feeling lazy):\n\n"In meteorology, a tropical cyclone is a storm system with a closed circulation around a center of low pressure, fueled by the heat released when moist air rises and condenses. The name underscores their origin in the tropics and their cyclonic nature. They are distinguished from other cyclonic storms such as nor'easters and polar lows by the heat mechanism that fuels them, which makes them "warm core" storm systems.\n\nDepending on their strength and location, a tropical cyclone can be called a tropical depression, tropical storm, hurricane, or typhoon, among other names.\n\nTropical cyclones can produce extremely high winds, tornadoes, torrential rain (leading to mudslides and flash floods), and drive storm surge onto coastal areas. Though the effects on populations and ships can be catastrophic, tropical cyclones have been known to relieve drought conditions. They carry heat away from the tropics, an important mechanism of the global atmospheric circulation that maintains equilibrium in the environment." (wikipedia - see below)

how about this idea for lowering gas prices?!?

I don't believe this would make much of an impact. How about something else? Find alternatives. Participate in public transportation (or ask civic leaders to provide better public transportation). Vote for leaders who prioritize and value alternative, sustainable energies. Carpool, reduce your dependency on Gasoline. \n\nThere is an inequity between supply and Demand. Either the supply of fuel would have to be significantly and disproportionally increased (which won't happen) or people will have to start looking elsewhere for alternatives. Demand, in this situation, won't change without alternatives. The best way for people to help is to buy something else instead.


?Which comp should I get?  Dell XPS Users and Alienware users your experience would be really helpful.?

If you considered alienware.... you definitely like games. Alienware is THE BEST gaming pc ever. its a bit pricey though.\n\nThe dell XPS is just a model of dell which was released just to compete with alienware and voodoo pc.\n\nThe XPS is not better at programing just because its from dell. The Alienware can be used for anything, but it is specially desgned for gaming. But you can completely customize it to your needs and budget. The alienware is also a far more experienced company at making high end gaming PC's.\n\nYou can also consider voodoo pc which is also and excellent brand for gaming. It was voted as the best gaming pc by PC Magazine.\n\nIf it were up to me i wouldnt even think about buying anything other than an alienware.

why do we crave chocolate?(neurological reason)?

Why are we craving chocolate?\nChocolate is a known mood enhancer. Furthermore, I could imagine several reasons:\n\n* When we lack lecithin, we get nervous. Lecithin is in chocolate.\n\n* Especially bitter chocolate contains antioxidants, which neutralize free radicals, toxins.\n\n* It contains sugar (hopefully no white sugar, but brown sugar in any form), which our brain and our liver use in greater amounts.\n\n* The cocoa may stimulate an enzyme that breaks down lactose (milk sugar) and thus prevents bloating and gas.\n\n* Studies suggested that cocoa butter does not raise the bad cholesterol but may raise the good cholesterol, and that it may halt the growth of skin cancer.\n\nThe downside I see in consuming too much chocolate is that common milk chocolate does not have as many antioxidants, that chocolate in general has the kind of fat we get too much of anyway (omega 6, which we have to balance with omega 3 as in flax oil), and that regular chocolate contains white sugar and often chemical additives.\n\nChoose wisely, from time to time.\nCordially, India.Magica

Why do liberals talk about a redistribution of wealth?

All of your question was mindless dribble, none of what you claim is true. With some education in learning the facts you could have some hope. Redistribution of wealth is easy to check, you must be one of the tax payers earning over $400,000 a year and it was you who got the tax cut at the expense of the working class who have seen higher taxes. Look up the last Minimum wage increase and fine the facts, you will find there is no evidence to support your claim that it adds to higher prices. BTw, when I go all over the country I stay at the Hilton. I also play golf with Republicans every week at the Country club. I am a brick layer, now teach me about the real work you do in life.

What's the best cold, flu and sore throat remedy?

Best flu remedy\n\nLaboratory tests show Sambucol® neutralises Common and Avian Flu Virus H5N1 \nAdded: (Thu Jan 19 2006) \n\nNew research, carried out by Retroscreen Virology has indicated that \nSambucol®, a patented formula, may fight the virulent Avian Flu virus. Results have been presented yesterday, Wednesday, in a press conference held in the Royal Society of Medicine, London. Speakers included Prof. Hannoun, Emeritus Professor at the Pasteur Institute and Dr. Mumcuoglu, developer of Sambucol®. \n\nLaboratory trials held in a leading research institute, Retroscreen Virology \nLtd, associated with the University of London found Sambucol® to be at least \n99% effective against the Avian Flu virus H5N1. Sambucol® was effective at \nsignificantly neutralising the infectivity of the virus in cell cultures. These \nresults will also be presented during the International Conference on Bird Flu: \n“The First Pandemic of the 21st Century. A Central Role for Antivirals”, to be \nheld at St. Bartholomew’s Hospital on January 19th-20th 2006. \n\nDr. Madeleine Mumcuoglu, is looking into further investigations into the \nactivity of Sambucol® against Avian Flu on a wider scale. \n\nIn an earlier study (1995) Sambucol® was found to be effective against a wide range of influenza strains. Laboratory studies conducted at the Hebrew \nUniversity – Hadassah Medical School, Jerusalem demonstrated the activity \nof Sambucol® against human, swine, and avian influenza strains. \nSambucol®'s efficacy was also demonstrated in two double blind, placebo \ncontrolled clinical studies. Sambucol® was shown to cut the duration and \nseverity of the common flu by up to half. \n\nENDS \n\nNotes to editors; \nSambucol® is based on an active substance isolated from the black elderberry. \nManufactured by Razei Bar Industries Israel, Sambucol® is available in 17 \ncountries and in the UK is sold in Tesco, leading chemists, independent health \nfood stores and wholesalers from £8.49. \n\nFor photography please visit the following site and enter the log in details: \nFTP address: ftp://pixelit.co.il \nuser name: ftp_razeibar \npassword: 63+84675 \n\n\nFor further press information please contact: Francesca Gaffey/Cheryl Davies, \nCommunique Public Relations, Waterside, No2 Canal Street, Manchester, M1 \n3HE.

Why do you have to stay awake if you have a concussion?

because when you get a concussion you brain slams aginst your skull, and causes you brain to swell.  The reason you have to stay awake is so that who ever is watching you can tell if you are acting really weard (more than normal) or if you feel some of your body go numb, you are better able to get cair then if you are asleap and have to have some one moniotr your eyes.  The swelling can be so bad the dr's might have to drill holes in yuor head to releave the preasure.  By staying awake the dr's are better able to tell how much your brain is swelling and how they will need to treat you.

I'm a male. As far as love involved, it does not count much.\nPsychologically, there are very compatible couples, where in relationships a man has so called "mother complex" and it's not something awful or out of tradition. \nThe same with girls.

You have probably noticed that on warm/humid days that lots of condensation will develop of the outside of a cup that has an icy cold beverage in it. If the cup temperature is below the dewpoint temperature, moisture will condense out of the air since the maximum amount of moisture that can be in the air decreases as temperature decreases. 2. Dewpoint gives a meteorologist as assessment of the amount of moisture in the air. As dewpoint increases, the amount of moisture in the air increases.

Are people really concerned about climate change or are they naive and think it will just sort itself out?

Not really naive. Take a look at Venice, it is both an example of how bad a society can screw up it's environment and how little of an impact that change can have on society. Venice was originally above the water level. The Venetians withdrew too much water form the ground; this caused the ground level to sink below sea level as the sub-strait compacted. The result: a city with canals that tourists travel from all over the world to see. Man made disaster? Hardly. Never underestimate humans ability to screw up their environment and their ability to adapt, even to prosper form it. \n\nSo it is going to get 1 or 2 degrees warmer; who cares, nothing lives at the ice caps any way.

I say do weight watchers.  I lost 30 pounds on it.  Dieting is never easy.  The benefit of weight watchers is you can eat whatever you want - you just have to keep track of it.  Sure, you might really want a cheeseburger one day - ok.  Fine - have it - but you will need to eat well for the rest of the week to make up for it.  This way you never feel deprived and you lose weight in a healthy manner, not to mention you have the support of others who are struggling too.\n\nIt does become a way of life.  That way you can do it forever and stay thin once you get there.  Good luck.

Should intelligent design be taught in the schools? Why/why not? Do you believe in it?

Funny how these questions get all the strongest opinions, isn't it?  First, evolution is NOT a scientific fact.  It has not yet been proven by external observation, and so it is considered a Theory.  However, the idea that the Earth orbits the Sun is also a Theory, as no one has actually seen it happen yet.  \n\nIn response to the question; No, I don't think intelligent design should be taught in an academic setting, except in a thology class, as previously mentioned.  It is not a scientific line of thought, but rather an attempt to reconcile scientific data with religious beliefs.  In answer to your final question; yes, I do believe in it.  I also believe in evolution.  Genesis said God created animals.  It never said HOW.


I have bad credit. I plan on being married soon will my husband take on my bad credit history?

It really depends. Your husband won't take on your poor credit per say, however, it may affect your borrowing capabilities. For instance, when you go to buy a house or a car, and if BOTH of you plan to purchase these items together, it may have an adverse affect on the credit scores used, and whether or not you ultimately get the financing you're seeking. I might also suggest you have him manage the finances in the family? Also, when a home, or a car IS financed by BOTH of you, as long as payments are made on time, it can help with boosting your own credit history.

There are a couple of ways to stop.  Also, check out the video called "First Step".  It goes into a lot of detail on how to stop.\n\nMethod 1\nThis method is only good to use if you are rolling at a slow-medium pace.  You do not want to be rolling faster than you can run.  \n\nWhat you want to do is take your back foot off and run out of the skateboard.  Practice this in the grass before you even start rolling.  Just take your back foot off and run forward.\n\nMethod #2\nYou can take your back foot off and drag it flat along side of your board.  Use your sole as a brake pad.\n\nMethod #3 (Slightly more advanced)\nYou can hang your back toes off the skateboard.  Use your kicktail to turn 45-90 degrees all the while using your toe as a break pad.  This will take some practice and it is only useful at a slow to medium pace.\n\nMethod #4 (More advanced)\nPOWERSLIDES ! ! !....This is the most fun way to stop.  It takes alot of practice and patience.  You\n\nFirst you hang your back heel off of the skateboard.  Then use that heel to push your board around 90 Degrees to your frontside.  Use both your back heel and your front heel to slide the board forward on all 4 wheels.  \n\nSEE HOW FAR YOU CAN SLIDE.\n\nHope this helps you out.  Just becareful and practice at a slow pace.  If you find yourself on a skateboard going faster than you can run out with alot of road left, you are almost always better to just ride it out


Can a player (not being a professional) receive cash  or voucher prizes for competitions without restriction?

3-1. Playing for Prize Money \n\nAn amateur golfer must not play golf for prize money or its equivalent in a match, competition or exhibition. \n\nNote: An amateur golfer may participate in an event where prize money or its equivalent is offered, provided that prior to participation he waives his right to accept prize money in that event. \n\n(Conduct contrary to the purpose and spirit of the Rules – see Rule 7-2.) \n(Policy on gambling – see Appendix.) \n\n\n\na. General \nAn amateur golfer must not accept a prize (other than a symbolic prize) or prize voucher of retail value in excess of $750 or the equivalent, or such a lesser figure as may be decided by the USGA. This limit applies to the total prizes or prize vouchers received by an amateur golfer in any one competition or series of competitions. \n\nException: A prize for a hole-in-one made while playing golf may exceed the above prize limit. \n\n  b. Exchanging Prizes\nAn amateur golfer must not exchange a prize or prize voucher for cash. \n\nException: An amateur golfer may submit a prize voucher to a state or regional golf association and thereafter be reimbursed from the value of that voucher for expenses incurred in participating in a golf competition, provided the reimbursement of such expenses is permitted under Rule 4-2.


Science is based on finding physical evidence in the universe, not on idle speculation.\n\nSince the results of the Big Bang are strewn across the sky, it is possible for science to use what we see to deduce what the universe was like at the time of the Big Bang.  However, due to the violent forces involved at that time, finding physical evidence of what reality was like BEFORE then is extremely difficult.  No one has yet devised a way to do it.\n\nThat means any ideas about what it was like before the Big Bang (including whether "God did it" or not) are idle speculation and not science.  As such, they should be taken back to the religion forum.


Cleveland?  Okay, the best way is to get on the phone and call the companies.  Do not ask the receptionist or Human Resources people.  Their job is to screen out.  Call the person who would be your boss and ask them what they are looking for. You can make 50 calls a day and will find an opening in a few weeks for a job you want.  If you are not living there they won't talk to you because it's a waste of time. If you live there also go to temporary agencies, too It's free.

How did all the planets our solar system get named? Who named them?

The International Astronomical Union (IAU) is officially in charge of assigning astronomical names and it is very sensitive to astronomical tradition.Its nomenclature is often derived from tradition and history (especially Greek/Roman mythology) rather than from what might today seem more sensible.

Where can i find a site suitable for writing a speech on colours?

Link below will give you basics of colour theory and some online activities to help you understand the theory.\n\nAs for personal opinions, remember there is pigment color - paints, fabric dyes, etc. and there is also light color - sunlight, rainbows, etc.\n\nI can tell you the color green makes me feel peaceful and cool - but green plants and the color of the green at sunrise or sunset has more impact than, say a green shirt.\n\nI can tell you the color orange makes me feel agitated - but the glow of sunset over my favorite lake makes me feel very peaceful, and in that instant, I love the color orange.\n\nIt's not just the colors, but the quality - density, hue, tint - these elements are all explained on the site below.\n\nThis sounds like a fun assignment - I hope you enjoy writing your speech.


do you beleive it's possible to be celibate for a lifetime?

I think it is possible, but really difficult.\n\nPaul told Christians not to marry if they could avoid it, but I think it was mostly because of the coming persecution.\n\nI don't see any Biblical basis for having a celibate priesthood.  Peter was married.  Jesus healed his wife's mother.  Matthew 8:14

how do the character in the ramayana follow their dharma? and what is varna?

Varna = caste.  So you are really asking how the figures in the Ramayana follow their dharma by acting as persons in their varna should act. \n\nFor example, Kshatriyas should act as noble warriors.  So think about who is a Brahmin, who is a Kshatriya, etc.  And then think about how they acted to best fulfill those roles.

Yes.  A coward is anyone who  shows disgraceful fear or timidity.  If a woman doesn't have the courage to say was she wants out of life or is so timid that she allows someone to control her, she is a coward.


Does anyone really know what their IQ is?

Do a google search and/or a yahoo search for "Free IQ tests" and you'll come up with tons of them.  But, if you want to get a better idea of what your IQ is, do more than just one test, don't do the 'short cut' tests, keep track of the scores, and then average them.  That will at least give you an idea.\n\nOf course, you have to follow the test instructions, such as whether or not you are allowed to use pen and paper or whether the answers must be worked out in your head.\n\nOn average, my IQ is 132 ~ so, not exactly a genius, but not at the bottom of the gene pool, either.


can any body give me some information about mechanical parts of jacuzzi and how to design it?

There is little mechanical consideration. All you have to do is have a water heater, a pump and a temperature sensor. The heater heats the water until the sensor says stop, its hot enough. The pump simply distributes the heated water evenly throughout the jacuzzi. You got to have evenly spaced hot water outlets in the jacuzzi.

bible scriptures about our purpose being in a choir?

Works according to God’s own Purpose -\n\nBefore the world began, God saved us and called us with a holy calling (Eph.4:1 below), not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace (2 Tim.1:9, Jn.17:5, Eph.3:9, Eph.1:4 below).\n\nI believe God has purposed and given to us in Christ Jesus, before the world began, a holy calling, the works each of us is to accomplish who live by faith (Eph.2:10, Jm.2:21-26 below). \n\n\nEph.4:1I THEREFORE, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,    \n\n2 Tim.1:9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling (Eph.4:1 above), not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN (Jn.17:5 below),\n\nJn.17:5 And now, 0 Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee BEFORE THE WORLD WAS (2 Tim.1:9 above).\n\nEph.3:9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship (Eph.2:14-19, Gal.3:28) of the mystery WHICH FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD HATH BEEN HID IN God (Eph.1:4 below), who created all things by Jesus Christ.\n\nEph.1:4 According as he (Christ) hath chosen us in him BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD (Eph.3:9, Jn.17:5 above) that we should be holy and without blame (Col.1:22 below) before him in love.\n\nEph.2:10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.\n\nJm.2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?\n\nJm.2:22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?\n\nJm.2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.\n\nJm.2:24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.\n\nJm.2:25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent [them] out another way?\n\nJm.2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.\n\n\n\nPat (ndbpsa ©)


1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 these are the numbers at old phone,why the zero at the last not before number 1 as usual?

Old phones used pulse instead of tone to transmit the number, the further the dial went the more pulses you get.\nNow if the 0 was at the beginniong of the dial it would get no puls and the system will not recognize the numbe dialed. so the 0 is at the end and it gets 10 pulses when diald.\nthis was history and now when we all tranferred to tone phones the 0 remaind at the end.\n\nIf you think about it, it is quite annoying when you want to use the keypad on your computer right after dialling on the phone, you may get confused.


for me, No...it's even a good example of being a committted person to the Lord, trusting Him to give that special sombody when the right time comes for him or her to go into a relationship. it just show that God needs to be first in that persons life, taking each day at a time, trusting in Jesus alone...

Did/Do narwhales actually exist,or are they imaginary?

They are real...\n\nNARWHAL\nMonodon monoceros Narwhal Printout\nNarwhal Connect-the-Dots\n\nNarwhal The Narwhal (meaning "corpse whale" in Old Norse) is a rarely seen Arctic whale. This social whale is known for the VERY long tooth that males have. Very little is known about this whale.\n\nTHE TOOTH\nAll narwhals have two teeth in their upper jaw. After the first year of a male narwhal's life, its left tooth grows outward, spirally. This long, single tooth projects from its upper jaw and can grow to be 7-10 feet (2-3 m) long. Tusks are usually twisted in a counterclockwise direction and have a hollow interior. The tusk's function is uncertain, perhaps used as a formidable jousting weapon in courtship and dominance rivalry, in obtaining food, and/or for channeling and amplifying sonar pulses (which they emit). The tusk is not used in hunting. Long ago, narwhal sightings reinforced (or started) the unicorn legends.\n\nSIZE\nNarwhals can grow to be about 16 feet (4.9 m) long (not counting the tooth), and weigh about 1.8 tons (1.6 tonnes). Females are slightly smaller, averaging about 13 feet (4 m) long, and weighing 1 ton (0.9 tonnes). At birth, narwhals are about 5 feet (1.5 m) long and 175 pounds (80 kg).\n\nSKIN AND SHAPE\nNarwhal means "corpse whale" in Old Norse; this is perhaps a description of their skin, which is bluish-gray with white blotches (young narwhals are brown). Narwhals have a cylindrical body (with no dorsal fin) and a round head with a small mouth on their blunt snout. This compact body shape plus a thick layer of blubber retains heat in the icy Arctic waters in which they live.\n\nHABITAT\nNarwhals live in the icy waters of the Arctic seas. They rarely stray far from ice. In summer they infrequently enter estuaries, deep fjords, and bays.\n\n\nDIVING\nThe duration of a narwhal dive is from 7-20 minutes.\n\nVOCALIZATION\nNarwhals are a very vocal species of whale, making clicks, squeals, and whistles to communicate and/or navigate.\n\nLIFE SPAN\nNarwhals maximum life span is about 50 years.\n\nDIET\nNarwhals eat fish , squid , shrimp, and other marine animals.\n\nSOCIAL GROUPS\nPods (social groups of whales) of 4-20 narwhals have been observed; some groups consist of just one sex and others contain both sexes. Many pods may travel together, forming very large groups.\n\nPOPULATION COUNT\nIt is estimated that there are roughly 10,000 to 45,000 narwhals. Narwhals are preyed upon by man (Inuit hunters legally hunt narwhals), polar bears, orcas, sharks, and walruses.\n\nREPRODUCTION\nThe Narwhal's gestation period is 10-16 months. Calves are brown and have no spots (unlike adults who are blue-gray with whitish spots). Calves are nursed for about 4 months after birth.\n\nCLASSIFICATION\nNarwhals (Monodon monoceros) are toothed whales (Suborder Odontoceti). They are one of 76 cetacean species, and are marine mammals.\n\nKingdom Animalia (animals)\nPhylum Chordata (vertebrates)\nClass Mammalia (mammals)\nOrder Cetacea (whales and dolphins)\nSuborder Odontoceti (toothed whales)\nSuperfamily Delphinoidea (oceanic dolphins and some whales)\nFamily Monodontidae (Narwhals and Beluga whales)\nGenus Monodon\nSpecies monoceros

Where is Osama Bin Laden & why is he not in custody yet?

I use to think BinLaden would be "captured" just in time for election purposes, but have changed my mind. I don't believe it's in the best interest of the government/military to find him at all. They're better off just looking for him. As long as BinLaden remains free, they know they've essentially got a blank check to continue spending. The war on terror has simply replaced the Cold War. Substitute BinLAden for the USSR and terrorism for communism, and you've got unchecked spending in the name of defense.

How to resolve the illegal immigration problem. But explore the option of criminalizing employers of illegal immigrants and not the immigrants. Those are the ones the that need to be fined and jailed, not the immigrants or their countries blamed. Employers are greedy and are not willing to pay social, medical or taxes. As long as there are jobs in the US for illegal immigrants, they will continue coming.


Yes - The Military will discharge a person If the individual is tested positive for steroid usage without a documented medical reason.

Does the word 'racist' hold any meaning anymore?

This is my stand....If you label a whole group of ppl as something ,that is racist.Everyone knows that the first group of ppl you associate with illegal immigrants is Mexicans.So if you say that this whole group of ppl are dirty and carry diseases and abuse the system.Thats racist.No offense but it is the same as saying that all black ppl like chicken or that white ppl don't have rythm.I know that I have also made assumptions that all white ppl are racist,and I will admit that that was wrong.But I truely feel that this IS a racial issue and that if all the ppl that came here illegally were white there wouldn't be a problem.


How should I feel now about this incident?

Because, in my experience, most cops are thugs.  But in their defense, they work with the scum of society and they believe that they have a ESP when it comes to picking out criminals.  Or at the very least they are seriously scarred from those people they deal with every day.\n\nPersonally, I think we need to clamp down on them and force them to behave in a way worthy of a role model, and not a loose canon.


can i practice as lawyer  in world if i study law from Indian institue?

You probably won't be able to practice law in the U.S. Each state has requirements before you take the state examination (bar) to practice law...most states require that you have a JD degree from an ABA-accredited or state-accredited institution. I couldn't find any such institution that exists in India. You might be able to get your initial law degree in India, then go to a US law school for a JD or a LLM so that you can practice here. \n\nHowever, you should still be able to practice law in India. From the American Association of Law Schools' website: \n\n"At present a law graduate is eligible to enroll as a fully licensed member of the Bar at the lower level by submitting an application to the State Bar Council along with relevant certificate of passing the Degree certificate by the Institution where student studied prescribed fee and by publishing in a local newspaper. The name moved by a Senior Advocate on a particular day announced but having been satisfied about the credentials, the State Bar Council registers him as a Member of the Bar.\n\nHowever, the Supreme Court of India insists upon passing of a separate examination conducted by it after having a minimum of 5 years experience at the Bar enrolment."

what is better to have gold stocks or coins or bullion?

Here are considerations.\nIf you won coin or bullion, it can always get stolen.  If you own a great enough quantity, then the cost of storage takes away from your investment profits.\nIf you own stocks, their value has only a rough correlation to the spot price of gold.  In a down market, the stock can drop more than the spot price and stay down there for quite awhile.\n\nMY ANSWER: If you are not talking larges amounts, then store coins in your safe deposit box.  (and price them around and by as cheap as you can...prices vary from dealer to dealer)


Can I print a log of software I have either installed or downloaded on my computer? If so, how?

That kinda sounds like 2 totally unrelated questions !?\n\n(A) I highly recommend the totally free http://www.belarc.com to give you an almost instant and VERY complete list of all your hardware AND software, including even all the Windows Updates you have installed, which programs are "registered", and lots of other stuff - but all within about 2 or 3 pages.\n\n(B) Screenshots - there are plenty of ways (all BASICALLY similar) to handle these.\nMy longtime favourite takes maybe 5 or 10 minutes to set up - ONCE - but then it's permanently ready for instant 1-click use anytime you want.\nOh, it also requires that you have IrfanView, excellent free picture viewer/manipulator, audio player, and lots more.\nSee more on this, here: http://eaglekiwi.orcon.net.nz/irfan.htm

there is a very gray spectrum ( a very large spectrum) on the "gay scale" between white and black.\n\nvery few people (less than 2% of the population!) are acutally physiologically ONLY attracted to those of the opposite sex. even if they are not aware of it (and psychologists check this using testing that measures heart rate, lubrication, and blood flow to the genitals).\n\nmost people fall to one side or the other of the completely 50% bisexual point on the spectrum. some fall almost to the white or black, and some are right next to fifty fifty.\n\nstrange, huh... when you consider the amount of people (mostly men!) who are uncomfortable with gay people and are angered by it... um, self hating perhaps?\n\nyou may be "gay", you may be "bi", you may be "straight".... it all depends on your actions and where you feel most comfortable.\n\nbe who you are. and don't be uncomfortable. chances are, 5 out of your 6 closest friends feel the same way but don't even realize it.

wht is a petroleum pool, oil field & the petroleum province?

They all mean roughly the same thing.\n\nPetroleum pool = discrete accumulation of petroleum under a single pressure system\n(as normally defined in Petroleum Mining Codes contracts - e.g. www.timorseada.org/JPDA_Interim_PMC_2_April_03.pdf)\n\n\nHere are some answers from http://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/ though that will help you.\n\nPetroleum pools are also known as oil pools... and are also known as oil fields which is "a subsurface oil accumulation. An oil field can consist of one or more oil pools or distinct reservoirs within a single large trap. The term "pool" can create the erroneous impression that oil fields are immense caverns filled with oil, instead of rock filled with small oil-filled pores."\n\n\nOil field = An accumulation, pool or group of pools of oil in the subsurface. An oil field consists of a reservoir in a shape that will trap hydrocarbons and that is covered by an impermeable or sealing rock. Typically, industry professionals use the term with an implied assumption of economic size.


Did you know that your sales taxes are deductable?

Well, make certain you check this with your tax professional because mine has always said this is only for specific types of items such as an automobile.\n\nIt was certainly not my intention to insult anyone, I thought I was making a light joke. I apologize if I hurt your feelings.\n\nBut I do know in the past that we had asked about deducting sales taxes at H & R and were told that this had very strict limitations. She could have been wrong because they use a lot of temp help around tax time. Conversely, there is a person who asked a question because they now owe an additional $4400.00 to the IRS because of mistakes.\n\nThat really was all I meant.


How does natural selection help bacteria to sdapt to their environments?

Natural Selection is a process where the weaker individuals are "culled out" and only the stronger ones survive.  A good example of this concerning bacteria is the overuse of antibiotics.  Eventually, the resilient individuals will survive antibiotic treatment and become resistant to that particular antibiotic.  Eventually, that population will grow enough and be untreatable with that particular treatment and another antibiotic will have to be used.  Some speculate (myself included) that this is how Bird Flu was created except on a viral level instead of bacterial.  In summary, new environment (heat, cold, antibiotics, etc.) weaker bacteria die off, strong ones survive and propagate and therefore, live on. . . thus adaptation.  Hope this helps.


what is the best way to get over someone?

remind yourself of all their bad points and find somebody else


yes, you can apply for RPL IPO.But your Investemnt will be for Long term only than you will get best result.Because the company will make commercial production only in 2008 or 2009 so you should wait till this time and Investemnt is made by RIL so the price is going to increase Further once the commerical production started the company will earn in crores as there is no tax for first 5 years and 50 % tax for next five years further its is India largest refiney it has cost advantage and it is situated in SEZ no Import duty and what product sell to another SEZ or EOU it is treated as deemed Export.So it is good to Invest but for Long term

sensex is the index of the bse  while nifty is the index of the nse. index represents basically the mood of the market. that is, it is the barometer of the market.\n\nsensex is calculated by taking the top 30 companies listed in the bse from different sectors and by giving them appropriate weightage (in relation to their market cap.). the movement of these stocks is what is reflected in the sensex. it gauges the market sentiment for the particular day. \n\nin nse (i.e., nifty) it is the top 50 shares instead of 30 as in the sensex.

i never  have,but my mother did,,,,her heart stopped for 20 minutes.and they brought her back,2 hours later she was awake talking in the er,the doctors told us usually when someone is flat line that long they  go into coma and usually doesn't come out,but she did,,,,,she didn't remember  what happened,and the family had asked the doctors and nurses not to tell her she had basically died,well,leave it to someone,,,,one nurse came in and said ,well you did die!!.this upset my mother,cause she didn't remember what had happened,she  asked us allot of questions and so on,,we talked with her  about the  death thing,and she didn't recall anything,except the most beautiful feeling of peace,as she  got better(her heart) she started to have strange feelings,due to the fact she had died and came back,she said it wasn't natural,she believed she should have went on to  another place,she told us she just didn't feel the same anymore about being alive,,,she never said she wanted to die again or anything,just it wasn't normal for her to be here,a few weeks later she signed papers to do no resuscitate at all.she  felt if it was her time to go the doctors should just let nature take its course.well she lived on a bout 6 months.. she was doing really well,and then one night she just passed in her sleep..so now,we all feel  she has went back to  the  beautiful most peaceful place she once had found..

puff diddy and J Lo is there still love ?

I always thought that J.Lo and Diddy were a wrong match. And i kinda thought she'd end up with Marc Anthony long ago, back in the 90s when she was appearing in his videos and showing up at his concerts .. they seem to have more in common, same background .. \n\nAnyways, who cares?! Celebs relationships are never predictable! One minutes they're going out with someone, the next they're getting married to someone else and having babies only to get divorced 10 years later for "irreconcilable differences" ...

If Earth rotate backward (as superman did it)?

Time is unconnected to the Earth.  The only immediately noticeable differences between normal Earth and a backward rotating Earth (NOT counting the moment during which the Earth stops spinning) is that water will circulate in the opposite direction in the ocean, counterclockwise instead of clockwise, and storms will rotate across the Earth in a different directional tendency.

Are we gonna injoy feeling the rapture of sex for life or if we r old or when i'm 55 years old or even after?!

'Scuse me...I'm 53 this year and there's life in me yet!  And when you've been with someone for a lifetime (murderers spend less time in jail in the UK serving the average 'life' sentence - hah - than we've been married) you soon learn that the rapture may not be the same as it first was, but the comfort of being with someone who knows all about you and still knows how to love you gives an ease to the problem of whether or not 'rapture' as you first knew it is involved.\n\nThere are things which inhibit the active sex life of the standard of youth - older people are less flexible in their joints and some become almost immobile, but people find ways round things if they truly love one another, and find what can and can't be done.\n\nThis is a question that can only have been asked by someone quite young.  When I was 18 I thought 30 was old, but as you get older the goalposts move....I don't intend being 'old' till I'm on my deathbed!

I know what your going through, sometimes my life just completely sucks and i just wonder why? does the world or god have something against me or something. But when my life starts to be crap.But the world isn't against, it just seems that way when your life isn't going the way you want it. When i feel this way, I do this: Take a long hot bubble bath, then sit down and watch your favourite movie with a mug of hot chocolate, and just relax and forget about it all. That's what I do, try it. It may work.


If the gravity gave out all the sudden were would we go?

The air would rush away from the earth.  The average speed of an air molecule is about 1,000 miles per hour, so the initial speed of the air rusing away would be about 1,000 miles per hour.  If you were outdoors, you might be carried away with the air.\n\nAs the air pressure dropped, you would see fog everywhere and you might feel chilled because when air expands the temperature drops.\n\nWhen the air pressure was low enough, the fog would disappear because the fog droplets would boil away.\n\nThen, as the pressure dropped more, it would become excruciatingly painful as the gasses came out of (exsolved from) your blood.  Blood would bubble out of all of your body openings, ears, eyes, nose, mouth, others.  Your body would blow up like a balloon and your skin might burst.  This would all be unbelievably painful.\n\nThen you would loose consciousness from a lack of oxygen and die.\n\nAll of this would happen very quickly, maybe in a minute.  The space shuttle flies at an altitude of 100 miles because there is no air at that height.  Since the air is rushing away from the earth at 1,000 mph, all of the air would be gone within 10 minutes.

If light slows down when refracted, is it possible to slow it down so you can see it moving?

From your question, I understand that you are needed some review of concepts about light.\n\nLight is not a matter to ‘see’.  It is energy.  We can perceive its presence through our eye.\n\nTherefore, whether speed of energy with which it is transmitted from one object to another is high or low, we cannot “see” it.\n\nIf an object completely stops the light; its speed is zero; in a sense, the energy is resting there, no energy reaches our eye, we cannot perceive the object.\n\n Some objects look black, because no light is coming from the object. It means the light is entering into the object. What happens to that light? Inside the medium its velocity is reduced.   Depending upon the nature of the medium the energy of light may be absorbed in which case there is no light inside the medium. If not absorbed definitely it will come out of the medium.  In any case we cannot “see” the light.\n\n The refractive index of a medium is the ratio of the speed of light in air to the speed of light in the medium. The speed of light is 3E (8) m/s.\n\nThe maximum refractive index is ~ 4.  Thus there is no material which can reduce the speed by one-fourth of its present speed. \n\n Finally whatever its speed we cannot visualize the motion of light as it is energy and it is not matter.\n\nNowadays every one is familiar with radio, T. V, cell phone, internet connection to computers.\n\nThese are all working using electro magnetic rays of different frequencies like light wave.\n\nThough we are not able to perceive these rays with our eye, we are using them. The light rays are perceived by our eye. It is the only difference between the rays.


Should teachers play a bigger role in molding student’s behavior?

As a teacher , I would like to share my experience regarding this question.I think, teacher is not a dectator rather a person as facilitator, who never impose his/her ideas, feelings, and ideology rather he/she triggers the students' potentiality.Thus, a good teacher always triggers the students' good behavriours rather than molding student's behaviour according to his/her eyes( view).


how do you find risk free rate of interest (krf)?

It depends upon your investing time horizon and which country you are in.  If you are in the US then US treasury bond yields can be used, but you need to find the one which corresponds to the period of time you are talking about. If you are in the UK then you neeed to find the gilt yields.  Gilts are UK government bonds and you can find this easily in the FT.  Right now in the US and other places the short term and long term rates are quite similar, so if you can tell which time horizon is being referred to, you aren't making a huge error.  This is referred to as a "flat yeld curve".  Normally (speaking historically) the long term rates are higher than the short term rates.


What happened with Andy Roddick in the last time....is this the end of his career ?

I think Andy Roddick will win another major title. I realize there are alot of strong players in the game today and winning a major is extremely difficult. I think Andy will proabably reach three more grandslam finals during his prime years, and I think he will win two of them. Andy would probably already have three grandslam title to his credit, but he was born at the same time as Roger Federer and that guy is simply unbelievable. Roddick is a tremondous talent, and I enjoyed watching him perform well for the US in Davis Cup.

Am I making the right choices in my career?

Everyone is different.  I personally went to college to be a high school teacher.  I realized after a year and 1/2 that I hated it.  I worked in a restaurant for a year, then taught adult learners for a year, then when I was 25 I stumbled into a marketing position and have been in marketing ever since (for 7 years).  I wish I'd gotten a degree in marketing....


Why would anyone chose a life of crime of family, friends, career & integrity?

Pain is one of the most powerful motivators there is.  You may have had a life and a sense of morals that always made it clear what the right thing was and supported you in making that decision.  Or when you were tempted to cheat the system and turn to the wrong way, maybe your upbringing or the advice of others or your moral compass saved you.\n\nNot everyone is so sure of themselves or has such clarity as you.  It is true that people have done self-destructive and antisocial things since the recording of history.  Your next step is to have compassion for all people.  Help them by first understanding them.

Can taking apple cider vinegar tablets be dangerous to your health?

I take them...not to lose weight but to keep doctors like the one who can't spell away.\n\nOnly a health food consultant can answer that one. In my case I take for acid reflux. When I purchased them..I was told they may or may not work . Some people have positive results. I did not in my case. \n\nNo they are not bad for your health


Do you think IQ tests (Weschler, Stanford-Binet, etc.) truly measure intelligence?

It depends on what you call intelligence, and the environmental influences involved. If you have taken the tests before, you are more likely to do better--this doesnt necessarily mean you have gotten smarter. Also, a person might score really well on the test, but the test doesnt measure common sense or emotional maturity, which many could consider to be factors of intelligence also.


where do you think the illegal immigrants should go?

I can't comprehend why any illegal immigrant couldn't have just came here legally. I don't have a problem with people coming to the United States that way. However, I do have a problem when [insert nationality] sneaks by our borders and settles down. It's not fair to those who already live here.\n\nWhich brings me to my next point: immigrants taking American jobs. The fact is, yes, they do take our jobs; IF they aren't legal, that is. Furthermore, illegals take up living space, use up American food and drink, ride our public transportation, and take advantage of our welfare and/or other government aid programs. I don't have a problem with legal Americans using the above. I DO have a problem with illegal [insert nationality] doing so.\n\nBy now, it should make a whole lot of sense. You don't deserve to be in America unless you're legal. Otherwise, you need to be kicked in the teeth and sent back until you're ready to earn your way in like everyone else.\n\nOne last thing: I HATE, beyond explanation, immigrants who come to this country and wave their flag before ours. I HATE immigrants who come to this country and refuse to speak English; it's uncomfortable to hear a different language in public. What if they are talking about setting up a bomb? It's only proper to know and have a complete understanding of the English language in this country. Finally, I HATE that our government is being so lenient on illegal immigration.\n\nThere's no excuse. If you're illegal, get out! We don't want you draining our resources!


What are the best kind of exercise that you can do to tone your middle section up???

will hi there, i hope i can help you get the answers to the best exercises for the middle section and up.\nthe abdominal development is the result of the back exericises traning. Abs and back are antagonistic bodyparts and work synergistically. when you do the pullupsand the chiups the abdominals are stabilizing the back workouts. they feed off each other. if someone has a weak abs they probably have a weak back. ok here is some exercises that you can do for your abs.1 the lower ab ball Crunch: hold a small ball between your bent knees. keep your hand behind your head. i prefer the head as opposed to around your neck. raising your knees slowly begin to crunch your knees and legs into your abdoman while holding the ball between your knees.lift them slowly but deliberate.do 3 to 4 sets with 20 to 25 repetitions." I hope that i helped you a lettel. let me know..

Is it fair when Barry passes Ruth that he should not be rewarded?

Some posters here claim that 2nd place is nothing to celebrate... well, tell that to the NCAA... I'm sick of hearing how great some coach is just because he got to a couple of 'final fours'.\n\nI grew up watching UCLA win championship after championship (they won 7 in a row, and 10 in 12 years)...anything less that a national championship was considered a failure by the UCLA players...\n\nSo, if college team can celebrate and coaches can be called 'great' just for getting to a final four (actually, they're great if they make the 'sweet sixteen', but that's another story), then why not let baseball celebrate when/if Bonds passes the Babe.\n\nBesides, in the public's eyes (mine included), Bonds will never be as great as Ruth (or Aaron) no matter HOW many HR's he hits. Babe Ruth led his teams to 10 pennants, and 7 world championships... Bonds just hits Home Runs.\n\nOne factor that isn't discussed much in terms of being easier to hit HRs today than in the past, is the fact that the strike zone has been shrunk to an area of about 1 square foot, belt high above the middle part of the plate. The strike zone used to extend from the knees to the shoulders. Now, anything above the belt is considered 'high' and called a ball. \n\nIt's no wonder we've had the offensive totals we've had over the last 10-15 years... ANY hitter can hit the ball out of the park if he knows that the pitcher is forced to throw the ball right down the middle in order to get a strike called.\n\n\nOne other thing... baseball (and especially ESPN) 'celebrates' just about ANY statistical 'accomplishment'... a guy hits career home run # 200... big thing on ESPN... 500 Home Runs and 3,000 hits doesn't break any records, but thanks to Palmeiro reaching these 'milestones' recently, a lot of fans now know who the players are who have that combination (Mays, Aaron, E. Murray and Palmeiro).... as if that actually MEANS anything... Murray and Palmeiro don't belong on any 'list' with Aaron and Mays, who are vastly superior to them.  But that's the dumbing-down of sports history brought to you courtesy of ESPN.\n\nAnd omg, remember when Bonds hit his 600th HR?  BARRY BONDS JOINS THE 600 HR CLUB, ONLY AARON, RUTH AND MAYS ARE THERE!!!! Blasted the headlines all over the place. "THERE IT GOES!!! NUMBER 600 FOR BARRY BONDS!!!!" (as the scoreboard flashes "600!!!" as he rounds the bases)\n\nSo yes, it would be hypocritical of baseball to 'celebrate' all of these other meaningless 'accomplishments' and 'milestones' and ignore Bonds passing Ruth.\n\n3,000 strikeouts doesn't break any records, but check out the media any time a pitcher does that! The all time record is 5,700+ by Nolan Ryan, so a pitcher with 3,000 would still have to pitch another entire career to break the record!\n\n300 wins?  Not even close to the record... 511 by Cy Young... but 'so-and-so's a 300 game winner!'..  again, big, fat, soggy deal!


what are the "process of securitization" invovle?

Securitization refers to the processing making some assets into a more liquid, tradable security.  There are often done with mortgages, where the mortgage company will sell off its loans after they're turned into bonds.  They have the same basic cash flow because it's money coming in but mortgages aren't liquid.  By converting the cash flow into bonds, they have the ability to increase the credit rating of the bonds.  Normally, bonds issued by a company have a credit rating equal to the company, but with these asset backed securities, they can also always issue at AAA.


I know how it feel to be broke up but want your ex back, it hurts badly, just see it like this, if it's meant for you to be together, he will come back on his on, if it's not, he won't...even if he does, if it's not meant to last, he will leave again, but if it is, eventually he will be there with you forever.....although nothing last forever, he will be with you until one of you die, so just hold on and see what happens, but remember, although you love him, if he doesn't come back, there are plenty others out ther that will be there, I had to make myself realize that, I thought that no-one else out there can make me feel like he did...A LIE!!! when there's something good there's always something better!!!! good luck!!

What subatomic particle is annihilated during nuclear fusion to produce the energy of the reaction?

A potential answer would be the Positron (the electron's antiparticle)\n\nFor a "normal" 4H->1He fusion cycle it really depends, there are several paths that it can take, but for the sake of argument let's look at the one most common in the sun.  The excess mass that 4 hydrogen nuclei have over 1 helium nuclei is converted into energy.  Some of that energy is carried off in gamma rays - ready to use light energy, that will then interact and heat the surroundings.\n\nSome of that mass-energy is given off in positrons.  These are the anti-particle to the electron.  These particles will quickly meet up with an electron, and mutually anhilate relesing energy equal to their combined mass.  Some of the energy is carried of by neutrinos.  They don't anhilate and thus leave the system quite rapidly.

Evidence on collateral matters shall not be permissible, except for when it tends to be any reasonable degree to establish the probability or improbability of the fact in issue.


what would have happened to the united states if the revolutionary war was won by the british instead?

Well, for starters the War of 1812 would never have been fought.  England might have eventually sold us to pay off the war debt.  We might have ended up speaking French or Spanish, or something else!  So we wouldn't be speaking English and we wouldn't have a lot of the same culture.  We wouldn't have had any of our early presidents so our country might not have expanded in what they called "manifest destiny."  We could still occupy only New England and we wouldn't be the longest lasting republic in the world.  Our constitution would not have been written and the abolitionists might never had succeeded.  Rights in all parts of the world might never have evolved.  Many countries might still have monarchies today, including us!

how much orbiting satellites are in danger of getting hit by meteorites  micro & macro) travel great speeds?

Satellites are always in danger of dust and micrometeorites. Since they are above much of the atmosphere, they are not shielded. Cosmic radiation also degrades the circuitry and even the collectors.  As far as insurance, my guess (and it is only one) is that someone is willing to bet on that. Insurance, after all, is betting that something will or will not happen.

my son is 3 years old and has a very bad temper problem. His father and i were 2nd half cousens, culd that b y

I'm 99.99% positive it has nothing to do with genetics. I think you could only see problems if you were to have a kid with your first cousin or a more immediate family member.\n\nBut, you do sound like a first time parent so i will give you some pointers on how to settle your child down. He should get plenty of exercises (running around in the back yard, going to the park, etc..) and then when its time for him to go to bed, he will be all tired about. It is also important that you say no to him every once in a while. I know it must sound crazy, but you have to teach him to cope with not being able to get everything he wants (this will make your life A LOT easier in the future). \n\nSo.. i think that should make him have less of a temper because most kids throw fits when they are either over tired or just aggravated. \n\nIt is also very important the you remember that he is only a child and you are probably not going to be able to reason with him (just because his brain has not matured to that level yet).

In Case of burn from a fire, which degree burn is fatal?

First-degree burns are usually limited to redness (erythema), a white plaque and minor pain at the site of injury. These burns usually extend only into the epidermis. \n\nSecond-degree burns additionally fill with clear fluid, have superficial blistering of the skin, and can involve more or less pain depending on the level of nerve involvement. Second-degree burns involve the superficial (papillary) dermis and may also involve the deep (reticular) dermis layer. \n\nThird-degree burns additionally have charring of the skin, and produce hard, leather-like eschars. An eschar is a scab that has separated from the unaffected part of the body. Frequently, there is also purple fluid. These types of burns are often painless (insensate) because nerve endings have been destroyed in the involved areas. \n\nFourth-degree burns injure the tissues underlying the skin, such as the muscles or bones. In fourth-degree burns, the skin is irretrievably lost. \n\nIn fifth-degree burns, the muscle is also irretrievably lost. \n\nIn sixth-degree burns, the bone is also charred. \n\nA newer classification of "Superficial Thickness", "Partial Thickness" (which is divided into superficial and deep categories) and "Full Thickness" relates more precisely to the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layers of skin and is used to guide treatment and predict outcome.\n\n\nCheckout the source below for more details.

It was very very different then most movies. The way it was directed was unique. It was disturbing. It made you really see what the whole drug world is about. It was cut beautifully. Makes you think twice about becoming addicted to drugs. I think everyone should see it.

Are there any rules on what health insurance companies must pay for?

It always depends on what kind of policy you have. You really do get what you pay for. You should always read your policy in it's entirety. If the insurance is paid by the employer and you don't have a choice, you can always purchase additional insurance. If this person is low income, she can apply for medical assistance through the state and they will pay any bills 3 months prior to the application. She may want to give that a try. You would be surprised at who they qualify for medical assistance.
