Many latinos are actually from European ancestry due to colonization of the Americas by spaniards, portuguese, french, and dutch. In fact, most Caribbean islands native americans where completely killed by the colonist with their diseases or by th…

This coming from the guy that cannot answer a simple softball question on Iraq invasion after years of practice and with the best family connections to generate the perfect answer. Anyway, the three main health related killers in the USA are heart…

I am also amazed of how people willingly inject under their skin cancer causing heavy metals such as mercury, lead, antimony, beryllium, chromium, cobalt nickel and arsenic. Futhermore, some of these heavy metals in tattoos burn during MRI procedure…

I am always amazed how people do not take time to understand how technology works... If you are measuring light reflectance and absorbance on your skin and how it interacts with blood pulsing through your veins, how do you think a whole bunch of…

I used the PCalc widget many times and not seen an issue. The widget is a simple calculator and does not have all the features of PCalc. I can't see how is this more complicated than any of Apple's widgets. By the way, PCalc is the best calculator…

I read about this program here last night (Friday). Setup a Genius appointment for today (Saturday). Get to the Apple store in the afternoon and they are out of batteries. The Genius tells me they only had a three batteries and they ran out early th…

Several years ago, the semiconductor industry moved to lead free solder balls. Unfortunately, this lead to a problem of cracked solder joints that disconnect the solder ball from PCB boards and even pulling the pad from the PCB board. This led to ma…
