Q:"When should infants begin drinking water?" A: If they live in Pawtucket, RI – Never.
^^^ Or most cities north of Boston. I'm looking at you, Lynn, MA.
Parents need to be careful of tap water, especially in rural areas, because the high mineral content can stain teeth (and probably cause other damage). I've had my teeth professionally whitened at least 4 times because of rural city water when I was a kid, plus a lifetime of whitening toothpaste, mouthwash, and bleach strips. I've also had an inordinate number of cavities. That can be hereditary, but both my dad and I have had dental issues, and we both grew up on rural water.
Evidently, they believe you have to read CNN news to answer the questions.
Really? Never more than 8 hours of sleep? Maybe you don't. Remember friend, everybody is different.
Wasn't the correct answer 7-9?
Yep!
Evidently, your knowledge of Serena Williams' health is a direct reflection of your knowledge about your own health.
If you're a cyberchondriac, that is.
Ok, so now, how to stop snoring....
Get nasal strips, or lose weight, or if neither of these culprits are to blame, you may need surgery to fix the problem.
Optimal sleeping time is an uninterrupted 8 hours and 15 minutes in order to feel truly rested, this is according to Dr. James A. Maas, my psychology professor at Cornell. 7 hours will not cut it no matter your age, the 7th-8th hour of sleep is where the greatest amount of REM sleep occurs, which is required to be truly well rested and the most productive throughout your day.
Depends on your biology. Some people honestly don't need more than 7 hours of sleep. Less than that is pretty uncommon.
So, just curious, wth does being able to make responsible decisions have to do with tanning beds.......Most adults who use tanning beds can't make responsible choices either, look at the douch bags on Jersey Shore...
No kidding. I've seen plenty of adults overdo it. The best compromise here would be to limit the number of minutes you can tan and the number of times per month you can tan if the client is a minor. Of course, they can always go lay out in the sun, but that's their own dumb choice.
How much sleep you need? Right answer is depends on how many people you can convince to sleep with you.
Another question to the sleep section can be something along those lines..Researches have found out that the best way to fall asleep is to watch cnn .
James ; Love it. Cable news is Hype. Jennings and Brokaw were real journalist, as was Cronkite. Good nigh David, Good night Chet.
That's some great advise for people....SLEEP MORE ? Just what we need, a country that is encouraged to sleep away one third of their life.
As they say, you'll get all your happy shut-eye when your dead!
Man you need to concentrate more on grammar and less on listening to background noises.
Are you a member or the illiterati??? Go look it up, I'll wait or is it weight???
RE: Sleep
The average adult requires 7-9 hours of sleep, but there are exceptions. The distribution curve for sleep need is bell-shaped. Some require less (ie the short-sleepers) and some require more. The "correct" answer for you is the amount of sleep required in order to make you feel rested and alert throughout the day. Most Americans are somewhat sleep deprived during the week as noted by the tendancy to "sleep in" on the weekends.
Sleep Well!
if you think any broadcaster from chet and david to brocaw, etc have any influence on what they say on the news, you are naive
Terrible job "trying" to market a website. Third subject I've read on CNN that you suggest the same thing....your website !
Nice one...(not!) Time for Marketing 101? Or maybe you should start with Spelling 101?
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme? Good. Now I've got Simon and Garfunkel in my head...
What if you are narcoleptic? How many "good" hours of sleep do you get or need.?
