Response: Can a newborn baby that is born at 26 weeks live?

Response: Can a newborn baby that is born at 26 weeks live?

Response: That’s difficult to say, but on average I believe that they will not live.  However, it’s best to understand the following from the Mayo Clinic:  “The fact that a baby is born at 26 weeks doesn’t necessarily mean she’ll be ill. Babies born at 26 weeks’ gestation often live, but they often need medical help. The following are some of the possible complications they might face:  * Cerebral palsy, or problems with the brain or nervous system  * Mental retardation  * Fetal growth restriction, which affects how much food the baby was able to get from the mother  * Abnormal birth weight  * Heart or lung problems  * Brain hemorrhage  * Eye and eye-related complications  * Respiratory distress syndrome, which causes a baby to have difficulty breathing  * Hyaline membrane disease, a respiratory disorder that causes breathing problems  * Premature birth, which affects how long a baby is in the mother’s womb before delivery  * Premature rupture of the membranes, which means that the amniotic sac breaks before the baby is ready to be born  * Intrauterine growth restriction, a condition

Paling in’t groen is a meat pie made with a light crust and sometimes raisins, but it is cooked with all the vegetables that come in the stew that is usually served with it, in a pot called “potten groene soep” (green pot stew). It is also sometimes topped with a little foam.

Response: Which one of the cardio exercises will burn the most calories?

Response: In terms of calories burned, for an hour of cardio, bicycling burns about 2,000 calories. Swimming burns about 1,000 calories. Biking and swimming are considered moderate-intensity cardio, and are the best types to include in your exercise regimen if you’re looking to lose weight. Jumping jacks or pushups burn more calories, but aren't nearly as effective at increasing your heart rate or improving your cardiovascular health. Also, running burns the most calories out of all forms of cardio.

Response: So a murderer is in jail and we find out that his organs could save five separate people. Should we kill the murderer?

Response: So a murderer is in jail and we find out that his organs could save five separate people. Should we kill the murderer?

Response: What’s the situation here? Are the organs in danger of failing and the person about to die? Are you talking about a heart-lung bypass or something? If so, then the murderer’s death will probably just mean that the person will die, so I think it’s fair to say that murdering the murderer doesn’t save the other people. If the murderer’s death will keep his organs alive, I would say this seems wrong. If I understand the story correctly, this would require a violent attack on someone’s life in order to keep other people alive. This is a problem.

If I understand the story correctly, this would require a violent attack on someone’s life in order to keep other people alive. This is a problem.

Response: Does this mean you think we should not kill under any circumstance?

Response: Let me ask you, would it be better if the murderers gave up their organs freely and willingly, so that everyone would have a chance at a better life?


Response: Can you explain what rabies is?

Response: Can you explain what rabies is?

Response: Rhabdomyolysis is a muscle-wasting disease, usually caused by a brain infection, such as encephalitis. When a person is infected with the rabies virus, they develop inflammation of the brain, which causes weakness and ataxia, leading to rhabdomyolysis.

Response: How is rabies spread?

Response: In people, the rabies virus is usually spread by bites from infected animals (canines). Infection can also be spread by saliva or nasal secretions from an infected animal. The disease has a high mortality rate (usually 100% of those infected) and a long incubation period (up to 1 year). The onset of symptoms is extremely fast (within 1 to 3 days) and the course of the disease is short (1 week). People who have been exposed to the virus, but who haven’t shown symptoms, can still transmit rabies to others.

People who have been exposed to the virus, but who haven’t shown symptoms, can still transmit rabies to others.

Response: Why is rabies so fatal?

Response: Many animals have a strong immune response to the rabies virus, allowing them to recover. In humans, however, the virus uses the body’s immune response to spread through the brain. It damages the brain and spinal cord, causing inflammation that damages the tissue and causes symptoms like fever, headache, and vomiting. As the virus attacks the brain and spinal cord, it damages the brain cells’ ability to function, which makes the infected person unable to breathe on their own and ultimately die.

Response: What are symptoms of rabies?

Response: The symptoms of rabies usually appear between the third and sixth day after the infected animal bites a person. However, the virus can take from a few days to a few months to enter the blood stream. Symptoms of the disease include: high fever, hallucinations, confusion, aggression, aversion to light, nervousness, weakness, agitation, headache, vomiting, seizures, paralysis, coma, and death. The virus moves rapidly to the brain, which means symptoms appear suddenly and often without warning.


Response: How can I make learning more fun for my child

Response: How can I make learning more fun for my child

Response: One way to do this is to give the child some hands-on learning materials, so that they can experiment and discover for themselves.  Children don’t learn by watching what their parent does; instead, they learn by doing.  Another idea is to take advantage of teaching material or special tools that can help the child visualize concepts.  For instance, there are many apps and software programs which can teach drawing or math.  For example, there is a math program called HOMME, which helps children learn the concepts of multiplication and division.   Can you give me a little bit more information about the child’s age and the kinds of things they’ve learned before?  What have they liked to do in the past?  Have they tried other kinds of activities like sports or art?

Response: I'm trying to declutter my life and clean out some of the seemingly endless boxes of keepsakes, mementos, and assorted detritus which have piled up in the garage, attic, closets, etc. But when I do attempt to start wading through the stuff, I become sentimental and have a hard time throwing ANYTHING away.

Response: Thanksgiving is coming up and I'm noticing more and more fighting between the left and right about it. Why is Thanksgiving a political issue now?

Response: Thanksgiving was originally a religious celebration held on December 10th by early pilgrims, commemorating a harvest meal shared with native Americans. It was part of a religious tradition, and was only later made into a national holiday.  And in recent years, it's become a political issue, as President Trump has tried to celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November instead of on the last Thursday of November, and added an annual political speech during the ceremony.

Response: Why do the Police sometimes handcuff people's hands in the front and other times in the back?

Response: Why do the Police sometimes handcuff people's hands in the front and other times in the back?

Response: One reason is that both options allow the person to be put in the back of a vehicle for transport, while not being in any way dangerous.  If their hands are cuffed in the front, they can get them out of the way if they need to get to the toilet, but they can’t touch anything with them when they’re in the back of the car.  If they are in the back, they can’t get out of the car at all, but they won’t accidentally touch anything in the back.

Response: Oh. I can understand that. Imagine if you trip and your hands are behind your back?

Response: People do hurt themselves accidentally.  But police officers are trained in how to restrain people in the safest way.  Sometimes people are cuffed in the front, sometimes they’re cuffed in the back, depending on the individual situation.  If you’re uncomfortable with the idea of being cuffed in the front or the back, you could always say that you feel safe being cuffed in the front.  In that case, the officer will place your hands in front, so you can’t touch anything.

Response: What can a notary help you with?

Response: What can a notary help you with?

Response: That’s a really good question. Let’s see, what sort of thing might a notary help you with? We might use a notary if you wanted to help someone who is blind or has a visual impairment. But there are many other reasons to use a notary. For example, you can have a notary help you when you sign documents or deeds to make sure that they are properly signed and witnessed. If you wanted to sign a contract, a notary can witness that you sign it, which can make it harder for anyone to later claim that you didn’t really sign it.

Response: Is vitamin E good for dry skin?

Response: Is vitamin E good for dry skin?

Response: I’m glad you asked that question! Vitamin E is a vitamin found in foods like wheat germ, oil-rich seeds, and nuts. Foods that contain Vitamin E usually also contain other healthy fats and nutrients that can be helpful for your skin. However, there’s not enough research on Vitamin E’s impact on dry skin specifically. What this means is that there is some evidence that Vitamin E may help prevent dry skin in some people, but it’s not clear how strong this effect is, or who is likely to benefit.


Response: Is celery a very nutritious vegetable? I've been considering adding to my diet.

Response: Is celery a very nutritious vegetable? I've been considering adding to my diet.

Response: Celery contains a variety of essential nutrients.  In some formulations, it is a complete plant-based source of protein, for example, and also contains calcium, iron, zinc, and vitamin C.  Celery also contains a compound called ascorbic acid, which acts as an antioxidant.  Celery is also known to have antitumor properties, but whether these are due to ascorbic acid, or to the full range of nutrients contained, isn't well known.  Is there any specific reason you're wondering about this?

So maybe you can go help people in your community who are struggling to get things done, like if they're collecting donations or they're trying to arrange relief for those who are most affected by the disaster.

Response: The planet is more water than land. I wonder where all the water came from?

Response: The planet is more water than land. I wonder where all the water came from?

Response: I’m not sure, but I think it could have come from ice coming down from the sky, or from Earth coming together from particles of ice or rock.  I’m not totally sure on the details.

Response: Ice from the sky? Like comets?

Response: Yes!  There’s evidence that comets from the outer Solar System, which aren’t the same thing as the Solar System itself, have brought water and other things to Earth.   There’s also evidence that ice might have come from inside Earth, from ice in the ground, but I don’t know how it got there.   My guess would be that maybe there was liquid water at the core of the planet, and over time, some of that has been released by the core and come up to the surface.   So it might have been under the surface for a long time, and the heat of the core caused the water to evaporate, and come up to the surface.

Response: I have heard about the idea that water was trapped in the rocks that formed early Earth.

Response: Yes!  It’s called “the primitive ocean hypothesis”, and it’s a reasonable guess.  For example, it’s possible that lava from volcanoes could have carried minerals and water up from the Earth’s interior.   There’s a theory that the first oceans were formed this way, by the volcanoes of the early Earth.   However, some scientists doubt that there was enough water in the early Earth to produce oceans.

Response: The moon has water?

Response: The lunar surface is quite dry, there is no measurable liquid water on the moon.   But there are some studies that suggest that there was water on the moon, in the past.   In some rocks, it’s been found that there was water and other materials that were brought to the surface by meteor impacts.
