if a person attends a gathering and gets contact with second-hand smoke for 2 hours, how does that affect him. Will their lungs and body detxify itself. Is there a chart that states ie: 6 people smoke in a room, then you will be affected this specific way, and the body will detoxify itself by this way.
I read that Short exposures to secondhand smoke can cause blood platelets to become stickier, damage the lining of
blood vessels, decrease coronary flow velocity
reserves, and reduce heart rate variability,
potentially increasing the risk of a heart attack.

Secondhand smoke contains many chemicals that can
quickly irritate and damage the lining of the airways.
Even brief exposure can result in upper airway changes
in healthy persons and can lead to more frequent and
more asthma attacks in children who already have
asthma.
But what is considered brief exposure?

I've seen so many questions where people express their concern that the "look" of America is going to change I take it from mostly white to mostly brownish... due to must immigrants (legal or not) being non-white. Would that be so bad? What's the problem with not being blond or blue eyed or white skinned...

in 1989 my husband came from Nicaragua illegally for political reasons and applied for the nicara law but didnt show up for his appt so they closed the case, we just got married 2 years ago and applied for his work permit, I-485 and I-130 they approved the I-130 but not the I-485 to adjust his status to permanent residence , immigration saids he can not get his green card even if he is married to a US citizen they said he would have to go back to nicaragua and wait for a visa and then he might be barred from coming back to the US if he does what can we do it is not fair, we have a sponsor for him a co-sponsor and all of his taxes ready but they will not approve him because they say he needed to do that before 2001 what can we do i dont want them to deport him back to Nicaragua because they will persecute him what can we do?

I am Buddhist and as part of my practise at home I light incense sticks. At the moment I am using some ones I got free from a Buddhist website I ordered two malas from. However, when I light them all I can smell is smoke. The same goes for any other incense sticks I use. I have tried using only matches, blowing them out after lighting them, etc but I can only smell smoke, non of the Jasmine, Patchouli,etc. Would incense cones be better! Please help!

I have a slightly crooked spine in the middle region so he did some adjusting. Deductible + Co-Pays is going to be $860.00 out of pocket. They wanted partial payment yesterday, I'm a college student, told them I couldn't pay anything until after the holidays they are fine with that - either 2 or 3 payments next year. They want me to come in Wed, Thurs, and Friday to get adjustments done.

I've never been to one of these before, so does this sound like everything is on the up and up?

I know many people have had bad exp. with chiropractors so if you could leave your personal opinion out and just give the facts that would be great - Thanks!
