    How do I answer this probability question?
    Question:
    Hot Lotto is played in District of Columbia, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, or West Virginia. Players pick five numbered white balls from 1 to 39 and one numbered orange “hot ball” from 1 to 19. What is the probability of winning the jackpot? (Hint: Find the probability of picking the five numbered balls from 1 to 39 and multiply your answer by the probability of picking one from 1 to 19.)

    Answer:
    Number of ways to pick 5 from 39 = 39!/(5!34!) = 575,757 Odds of picking 5 from 39 = 1/575757 Odds of picking 1 from 19 = 1/19 Odds of winning = 1/575757*1/19 = 1/10,939,383 = 0.0000091413%

    Is it about time this came out? Some Jehovah's Witnesses want more than to leave Watchtowers ?
    Question:
    Towns where Alleged Jehovah's Witness Child molesters have been reported to silentlambs Home Listed by each state If you would to add a new listing contact silentlambs at info@silentlambs.org The list below is designed to alert you to a possible danger in your community. Over the course of the last four years silentlambs has been a repository of reports on alleged Jehovah's Witness child molesters. Victims have reported extensively on times, dates and places abuse occurred. We have wrestled with how to alert the public as well as members that may be in congregations where abusers have been reported. We offer the following suggestions if you as a Jehovah's Witness are in a town/congregation where a report has been made. Do not allow your children to be alone with anyone in the congregation. Escort your children to the bathroom during meetings and make sure no else is with them when using facilities. Never allow your children to be alone in the car with anyone while in field service. Do not allow any member to study with your child alone. Avoid camping trips in which children go as a group with one or two adults. Avoid baby sitters that are adult males. At a get together watch your children and keep them in sight at all times. Ask elders directly if they know of any abusers in your congregation, use specific names and note their reaction. They will not tell you directly but indirectly you can often figure out who it is. If one elder is less cooperative talk to another till you find out enough information to know the facts. Check the local sex offender list in your area, type in the name of every person in your congregation to see if any are listed. Notice any male member of the congregation that does not have privileges such as microphone or other duties around the congregation, especially if for a long period of time. They can offer talks on the TMS or sermons Service Meeting but are not allowed to conduct meetings. (This is only in case of a confessed child molester) Note any member of the congregation that has children with sever rebellion or emotional problems. Do not allow your children to have sleepovers with anyone. Note members that the elders avoid having around their children. If you are a member of the public and your community is on the list take the following steps to protect your family. If Jehovah's Witnesses call at your home never allow them in your home If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call at your home purchase a no trespassing sign and place it near your door. JW's are instructing to only respect "no trespassing" signs any other variation will be ignored. If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call you can also call the local number and ask to be placed on the "do not call" list. They will note your home and check about once a year to make sure you wish to remain on the list. If you choose to study with Jehovah's Witnesses do so at a neutral location such as the local Kingdom Hall or in a public place. Never allow your child to be alone with members or their children. If you choose to attend meetings with Jehovah's Witnesses then we suggest you follow the guidelines above for members. Remember that most members are not aware of who the molesters are in their congregation according to church policy. They do not know. If two Jehovah's Witnesses call at your door one could be a child molester. According to church guidelines all confessed child molesters are required to have a partner when going door to door. If two Jehovah's Witnesses appear at your door you might wish to ask if one or both are child molesters for peace of mind. Of course keep in mind if the person is an accused child molester they are allowed to work alone in the door to door work. We hope this information is helpful and assists with the ultimate goal of silentlambs, protecting children. Check back as the list is updated on a regular basis.

    Race is on to detect dark matter by "Alicia Chang" Exibit A?
    Question:
    LOS ANGELES - In deep underground laboratories around the globe, a high-tech race is on to spot dark matter, the invisible cosmic glue that's believed to keep galaxies from spinning apart. Whoever discovers the nature of dark matter would solve one of modern science's greatest mysteries and be a shoo-in for the Nobel Prize. Yet it's more than just a brainy exercise. Deciphering dark matter — along with a better understanding of another mysterious force called dark energy — could help reveal the fate of the universe. Previous hunts for the hypothetical matter have turned up nothing, but that has not deterred some two dozen research teams from plumbing the darkness of idled mines and tunnel shafts for a fleeting glimpse. Dark-matter detecting machines today are more powerful than previous generations, but even the best has failed so far to catch a whiff of the stuff. Many teams are now building bigger detectors or toying with novel technologies to aid in the hunt. "We're in the golden age of dark matter search," said Sean Carroll, a California Institute of Technology theoretical physicist who has no role in the experiments. "It's looking good for some breakthroughs to happen." Scientists admittedly are still in the dark about dark matter. The prevailing theory is that it's made up of tiny, exotic particles left over from the Big Bang some 13.7 billion years ago. Dark matter, thought to make up a quarter of the universe's mass, gets its name because it doesn't give off light or heat. Astronomers know it exists because of its gravitational tug-of-war with stars and galaxies. Knowing that dark matter exists is a far cry from knowing what it is. Most experiments are searching for theoretical particles called WIMPS — or weakly interacting massive particles — the leading dark-matter candidate. The underground custom-built machines are all waiting for the rare moment when a WIMP hits the atomic nucleus and causes an elastic recoil. Experiments have to run below ground to prevent cosmic rays from interfering with the results. Dark matter researcher Neil Spooner of Sheffield University in England sums it up this way: "You have a needle in a haystack and you're trying to remove the hay. You need better technology to pull out the event you're looking for and reject the rubbish." Subterranean experiments are humming in an idled iron mine in Minnesota and in caverns in Canada, England, France, Italy, Japan and Russia. Last month, the National Science Foundation chose the defunct Homestake gold mine in South Dakota to be the site of one of the largest and deepest labs of its kind in the world — bigger than six Empire State Buildings stacked below ground. The competition is cutthroat and physicists spar over which technology works best. The front-runner for the past several years, called CDMS for cryogenic dark matter search, uses ultracold silicon and germanium crystals each the size of a hockey puck to sift out telltale vibrations of a WIMP collision. Newer contraptions use noble gas such as xenon or emerging technologies like superheated liquid bubble chambers. "There's no perfect dark matter experiment or detector. All of them have their quirks and limitations," said Juan Collar, a particle physicist at the University of Chicago and part of a team called COUPP. Scientists realize they may be in for a reality check. "It's possible that no matter how big of an experiment you build, you may not find anything," said Steve Ahlen of Boston University, who along with collaborators from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Brandeis University, is building a prototype that will be placed underground next year in a yet to be determined location. There have been false alarms. In 2000, Italian scientists working in an underground lab near Italy's Gran Sasso mountain range claimed to have detected a dark matter signal. But no one has been able to reproduce the result and the claim is not widely recognized in the scientific community. The Italian researchers have since been working on a second-generation detector and expect to present new results next year. This spring, a rival group led by Columbia University's Elena Aprile, who also works in Gran Sasso, shocked her peers by announcing at a science meeting that her liquid gas project called XENON10 is more sensitive and rejects more background noise than the CDMS detector. "The more sensitivity you have, the closer you get to the truth," Aprile said. CDMS spokesman Bernard Sadoulet of the University of California, Berkeley, said it helps to have more than one technology searching for dark matter to cross-check results. He added that his team has been taking data with its scaled-up detector since last year and expects to regain the sensitivity lead. The quest for dark matter dates back to the 1930s when Swiss astronomer Fritz Zwicky of Caltech, peering through his telescope, determined that there's missing mass in the universe by observing celestial motions. The idea took a while to catch on, but is now the subject of an intense underground hunt. Dark matter detectors are expensive to build and even pricier to upgrade and operate. Many projects are funded by a mix of sources. For example, the National Science Foundation has invested about $21 million since fiscal year 2000 on six projects including CDMS and XENON10. Scientists are also searching for dark matter in space. NASA next year plans to launch the GLAST telescope to study gamma ray bursts that may be created by dark matter collisions. And it's possible researchers will create dark matter in the lab — like at the Large Hadron Collider buried beneath the Swiss-French border — even before they confirm it in the cosmos or under ground. Not all dark matter searches are betting their money on WIMPS. The Axion Dark Matter Experiment at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has been searching for another theoretical particle called axions. The first phase of the project ended in 2003 with no signal. It recently got the green light from the Energy Department to upgrade the experiment. Just how long the dark matter hunt will go on is anybody's guess. "The crystal ball is fuzzy," said physicist Leslie Rosenberg, a co-spokesman of the axion project, adding that, "The nature of dark matter will be revealed." ___ On the Net: Dark matter experiments: http://lpsc.in2p3.fr/mayet/dm.php

    What's your question?

    Why are hate crimes on a rise?
    Question:
    Although "hate-crime" legislation has been championed by minority groups in hopes it would discourage racially motivated crime, a recently released FBI crime report reveals that a higher percentage of blacks than whites are charged with race-biased "hate crimes." The FBI's "Hate Crime Statistics" for 1999 show that 2,030 whites were arrested that year for "hate crimes" against blacks, compared to 524 blacks who were arrested and charged with a "hate crime" against whites. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, blacks make up 12.8 percent of the population -- or about 35.4 million of the country's 280 million people -- so, given the arrest rate versus population percentage, the data indicates that blacks are one-and-a-half times more likely to be arrested for a "hate crime" than whites. The Census Bureau's November 2000 statistics listed the nation's white population at 226.8 million, or 82.2 percent of the total. "In light of this study, it's fair to ask who poses a greater threat to the black community -- racist, violent whites or oblivious black politicians?" said Steve Dasbach, the national director for the Libertarian Party. "Unfortunately, hate crime laws have boomeranged on blacks," Dasbach said in a recent statement. "African-Americans thought that hate crime legislation would protect them, but instead they're being used as another legal weapon to prosecute them." Dasbach also said the FBI study indicated that another 87 blacks were arrested for hate crimes against other blacks. "Hate crimes aren't just for KKK members anymore. They are now being applied even to same-race crimes … apparently giving racist police, prosecutors or judges another weapon to use against African-Americans," Dasbach said. The bottom line, Dasbach said, is that crimes against a certain protected class of citizens "should not be treated more seriously than crimes against anyone else." The Libertarian Party has advocated a complete elimination of all "hate crime" laws. "Racist criminals, whether black or white, should be punished for their crimes, but hate crime laws aren't needed to do that," said the party chief. Officially, Congress has described a "hate crime" as one "in which the defendant intentionally selects a victim, or in the case of a property crime, the property that is the object of the crime, because of the actual or perceived race, color, national origin, ethnicity, gender, disability, or sexual orientation of any person." The party's position has been echoed by other critics of "hate crimes" laws who say legislation is written in such a way that authorities often have too much arbitrary power to decide whether a crime had a racial undertone. Many believe that "hate crime" laws, now in 45 states, have hit poor and minority communities the worst. "It is demonstrable that these laws hit the poor and minorities hardest. It wasn't meant that way, but that's the way it is," said Christopher Plourd -- a criminal defense lawyer who has represented a number of clients charged with "hate crimes" -- in an Oct. 30 interview with columnist Arianna Huffington. "In the same way that [police] don't go on white college campuses trying to enforce drug laws, but come to the 'hood, they'll use these new hate crime laws against the NAACP's own constituents," Van Jones, director of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, told Huffington. Ironically, most blacks continue to vote heavily for Democrats who have championed "hate crimes" legislation for years. According to the NAACP, about 88 percent of blacks who voted in last November's elections chose Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore and other Democratic candidates for nationwide and local races. Prior to the Nov. 7 election, the NAACP launched a $9 million national campaign effort in support of Gore, who had been a vociferous supporter of past "hate crimes" legislation. Some Republicans have also backed expansion of federal legislation, but last fall GOP leaders killed "hate crimes" language in the Defense Department's appropriations bill out of fear it would have jeopardized the whole measure. Also, GOP leaders said that while current federal law was sufficient to punish criminals convicted of racially motivated crime, overall, the issue of "hate crimes" legislation seemed contrary to the Constitution's equality provisions. "It should not be made a matter of federal law to designate one group of crimes and its victims less important than others," said John Czwartacki, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., in an October interview with the Associated Press. The FBI said there were a total of 7,876 "bias motivation" incidents in 1999. Anti-white incidents accounted for 781 of those, while anti-black incidents numbered 2,958. Anti-Hispanic incidents accounted for 466 of 829 ethnicity/national origin-related incidents. Of religiously based "bias events," anti-Jewish figures accounted for 1,109 of 1,411 documented incidents. Anti-Protestant incidents numbered 48, and anti-Catholic incidents accounted for 36 of the cases. Also, the FBI said there were a total of 1,317 "sexual orientation" incidents. Of those, 915 were anti-male homosexual; 187 were anti-female homosexual; 178 were anti-homosexual in general; and 14 were anti-heterosexual. Twenty-three incidents were anti-bisexual in nature. The bureau also said law enforcement officials recorded 9,301 "crimes against persons" offenses in 1999. California -- the nation's most populous state at over 34 million people -- recorded the most offenses with 2,295, followed by New Jersey (663), New York (602), and Massachusetts and Michigan with 492 each. Mississippi, North Dakota, and Wyoming led the nation with the least "crimes against persons" incidents, with just 2 each, followed by Alaska and the District of Columbia (6 each), Louisiana (7), Arkansas (9) and South Dakota (14). Crimes against persons include murder and non-negligent manslaughter (17), forcible rape (6), aggravated assault (1,120), simple assault (1,766) and intimidation crimes (3,268). There were 12 offenses listed as "other." The FBI's study appeared in the bureau's annual "Uniform Crime Report" and included data from over 12,000 law enforcement agencies around the country.

    Answer:
    how did you forget that the F.B.I. statistics show that for every black killed by a white there are 12 whites killed by blacks, and hardly any of these crimes have been charged as hate crimes against whites??? but every black killed by a white was listed as a hate crime??? some thing stinks

    How does the Electoral College determine the final amount of votes each state have?

Can you please explain to me in the EASIEST way so I can understand? thank you. The formula and how the formula is worked into getting those numbers? Thanks. I get the 2 senate part but how does the population work in determing the amount of votes? How does that work? Is there a formula to see how some are more than others? Thanks.

    Answer:
    These answerers are correct. Add the number of House Reps and Senators from your state and you get the number of electoral votes for that state. There is no "decision" by the electoral college per-se. There are 538 electoral votes because there are 435 House Reps, 100 Senators, and 3 delegates from Washington, DC. If you're interested in how the number of Reps is determined: Each representative, on average, represents about 700,000 citizens. Every state must have at least one representative, so in Wyoming, for example, one Congressman represents only about 500, 000 citizens because there are not 700,000 people in Wyoming. Because there is always 435, they are reapportioned every ten years based on the census data, So, a formula might look like this: State Population / US population = x / 435 solving for x would then tell you how many Representatives that state should have. (if it's less than 1 you round up). The electoral college is only dependent on population insofar as the House of Representatives depends on population. . Note, each party chooses it's own slate of electors, so if Texas has 32 electoral votes, the Dems and Republicans both choose 32 electors, and whichever party's candidate wins that state gets to send their set of electors.

    Who knows what fun things there are to do in california?
    Question:
    LIke i live here and i want to know what fun things there are to do that you cant do in the other states.... oh ya like EVERYTHING!!! enjoy living in everyother states like Alabama Alaska Arizona Arkansas Colorado Connecticut Delaware District of Columbia Florida Georgia Hawaii Idaho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Montana Nebraska Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York North Carolina North Dakota Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah Vermont Virginia Washington West Virginia Wisconsin Wyoming they all suck compared to cali Do you actually think that??? maybe, maybe in hollywood you might see a celeb, maybe. And you only see the paparazzi if your a celebrity. Ive never gotten in a crash. And as far as plastic body parts go, mhmm. Stop lying to yourself, california pwns noobs. Name something you have and its better in cali. your not smart

    Answer:
    I will tell you something that we have in Colorado that's better than Cali and that's Rocky mountain powder snow skiing. Yes, Cali has skiing but it's that slushy stuff like at Squaw in Tahoe. In North Carolina we have the Blue Ridge parkway - there is nothing in Cali that compares to it except maybe Hwy 1 from SF to LA which is pretty incredible. But the BR parkway wins! Cali is pretty cool I have to admit. There is a lot I really like about it, especially San Diego and San Francisco!! Also Tahoe! One more thing is the Russian River - fabulous for gold panning!

    Isn't it about time that this came out? Some Jehovah's Witnesses want more than to leave a Watchtower.
    Question:
    Towns where Alleged Jehovah's Witness Child molesters have been reported to silentlambs Home Listed by each state If you would to add a new listing contact silentlambs at info@silentlambs.org The list below is designed to alert you to a possible danger in your community. Over the course of the last four years silentlambs has been a repository of reports on alleged Jehovah's Witness child molesters. Victims have reported extensively on times, dates and places abuse occurred. We have wrestled with how to alert the public as well as members that may be in congregations where abusers have been reported. We offer the following suggestions if you as a Jehovah's Witness are in a town/congregation where a report has been made. Do not allow your children to be alone with anyone in the congregation. Escort your children to the bathroom during meetings and make sure no else is with them when using facilities. Never allow your children to be alone in the car with anyone while in field service. Do not allow any member to study with your child alone. Avoid camping trips in which children go as a group with one or two adults. Avoid baby sitters that are adult males. At a get together watch your children and keep them in sight at all times. Ask elders directly if they know of any abusers in your congregation, use specific names and note their reaction. They will not tell you directly but indirectly you can often figure out who it is. If one elder is less cooperative talk to another till you find out enough information to know the facts. Check the local sex offender list in your area, type in the name of every person in your congregation to see if any are listed. Notice any male member of the congregation that does not have privileges such as microphone or other duties around the congregation, especially if for a long period of time. They can offer talks on the TMS or sermons Service Meeting but are not allowed to conduct meetings. (This is only in case of a confessed child molester) Note any member of the congregation that has children with sever rebellion or emotional problems. Do not allow your children to have sleepovers with anyone. Note members that the elders avoid having around their children. If you are a member of the public and your community is on the list take the following steps to protect your family. If Jehovah's Witnesses call at your home never allow them in your home If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call at your home purchase a no trespassing sign and place it near your door. JW's are instructing to only respect "no trespassing" signs any other variation will be ignored. If you do not wish Jehovah's Witnesses to call you can also call the local number and ask to be placed on the "do not call" list. They will note your home and check about once a year to make sure you wish to remain on the list. If you choose to study with Jehovah's Witnesses do so at a neutral location such as the local Kingdom Hall or in a public place. Never allow your child to be alone with members or their children. If you choose to attend meetings with Jehovah's Witnesses then we suggest you follow the guidelines above for members. Remember that most members are not aware of who the molesters are in their congregation according to church policy. They do not know. If two Jehovah's Witnesses call at your door one could be a child molester. According to church guidelines all confessed child molesters are required to have a partner when going door to door. If two Jehovah's Witnesses appear at your door you might wish to ask if one or both are child molesters for peace of mind. Of course keep in mind if the person is an accused child molester they are allowed to work alone in the door to door work. We hope this information is helpful and assists with the ultimate goal of silentlambs, protecting children. Check back as the list is updated on a regular basis.

    Question:
    Wars of the West timeline Great Plains Comanche Wars (1836–1875) on the southern plains, primarily Texas Republic and the state Dakota War of 1862 — skirmishes in the southwestern quadrant of Minnesota result in hundreds dead. In the largest mass execution in U.S. history, 38 Dakota were hanged. About 1,600 others were sent to a reservation in present-day South Dakota. Red Cloud's War (1866–1868) — Lakota chief Makhpyia Luta (Red Cloud) conducts the most successful attacks against the U.S. Army during the Indian Wars. By the Treaty of Fort Laramie (1868), the U.S. granted a large reservation to the Lakota, without military presence or oversight, no settlements, and no reserved road building rights. The reservation included the entire Black Hills. Colorado War (1864–1865) — clashes centered on the Colorado Eastern Plains between the U.S. Army and an alliance consisting largely of the Cheyenne and Arapaho. Sand Creek Massacre (1864) — John Chivington killed more than 450 surrendered Cheyenne and Arapaho. Comanche Campaign (1867–1875) — Maj. Gen. Philip Sheridan, in command of the Department of the Missouri, instituted winter campaigning in 1868–69 as a means of rooting out the elusive Indian tribes scattered throughout the border regions of Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, and Texas.[8] Fort Wallace, Kansas-June, 26th, 1867-Sgt Frederick Wyllyams of Co G, 7th U.S. Cavalry-killed by Indians See Fifth Military District {Texas} for reports of US Cavalry vs. Native Americans from August 1867 to September 1869.

Battle of Beecher Island (1868) — northern Cheyenne under war leader Roman Nose fought scouts of the U.S. 9th Cavalry Regiment in a nine-day battle. Buff Creek, Kansas-October, 2, 1868- Walter Johnson of Co E, 7th U.S. Cavalry killed by Indians Battle of Washita River (1868) — George Armstrong Custer's 7th U.S. Cavalry attacked Black Kettle's Cheyenne village on the Washita River (near present day Cheyenne, Oklahoma). 250 men, women and children were killed. Battle of Summit Springs (1869) Cheyenne Dog Soldiers led by Tall Bull defeated by elements of U.S. Army under command of Colonel Eugene A. Carr. Tall Bull died, reportedly killed by Buffalo Bill Cody. Battle of Palo Duro Canyon (1874) — Cheyenne, Comanche, and Kiowa warriors engaged elements of the U.S. 4th Cavalry Regiment led by Colonel Ranald S. Mackenzie. Red River War (1874–1875) — between Comanche and U.S. forces under the command of William Sherman and Lt. General Phillip Sheridan. Black Hills War, or Little Big Horn Campaign (1876–1877) — Lakota under Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse fought the U.S. after repeated violations of the Treaty of Fort Laramie (1868). Battle of Powder River(1876) — Cheyanne under Little Wolf clash with U.S.Army and Shoshone and Crow Allies Battle of the Rosebud (1876) — Lakota under Tasunka witko clashed with U.S. Army column moving to reinforce Custer's 7th Cavalry. Battle of the Little Bighorn (1876) — Sioux and Cheyenne under the leadership of Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse defeated the 7th Cavalry under George Armstrong Custer. Cheyenne Campaign or Cheyenne War (1878–1879) — a conflict between the United States' armed forces and a small group of Cheyenne families. Pine Ridge Campaign (November 1890 – January 1891) — numerous unresolved grievances led to the last major conflict with the Sioux. A lopsided engagement that involved almost half the infantry and cavalry of the Regular Army caused the surviving warriors to lay down their arms and retreat to their reservations in January 1891. Wounded Knee Massacre (December 29, 1890) — Sitting Bull's half-brother, Big Foot, and 152 other Sioux were killed — 25 U.S. cavalrymen also died in the engagement. 7th Cavalry Only fourteen days before, Sitting Bull had been killed with his son Crow Foot at Standing Rock Agency in a gun battle with a group of Indian police that had been sent by the American government to arrest him.

    Answer:
    What favors this order? I like starting with some small states to give everyone a chance to compete without needing a lot of money. Not really too picky which states, DC is nice, it is only a city and the candidates do not need to travel far. Obama might win / Hillary migh get out sooner. People who don't do well in the first few soon drop out. The first state Obama didn't win (In your order) is Tennessee. The first counting up from the bottom he didn't win (Except for South Dakota & Montana, they haven't gone yet, they really are last) is New Hampshire. So flip the list either way, Hillary will have to wait for the bigger states. Which did not work for Rudy Guliani.

    can someone pls rephrase this for me? thanx p3?
    Question:
    There are thirty-four states currently enforcing parental consent or notification laws for minors seeking an abortion. The Supreme Court ruled that minors must have an alternative, such as the ability to seek a court order authorizing the procedure. When president Bush spoke at a major antiabortion rally, he endorsed the activists' cause but admitted that their primary goal--making abortion illegal--is not likely to be achieved anytime soon. He added, "A true culture of life cannot be sustained solely by changing laws. We need, most of all, to change hearts.” Bush was speaking perhaps more accurately than he knew. Around the globe, the presence or absence of legal restrictions has relatively little to do with whether women decide to have an abortion. The countries with the lowest abortion rates in the world are Belgium and the Netherlands, where abortion is legal and covered by national health insurance. Those countries each year report seven abortions per 1,000 women of childbearing age. By contrast, in countries such as Peru, Brazil, Chile and Colombia, where law restricts abortion, the abortion rate is about 50 per 1,000 women. Those figures are more than twice that of the U.S (abortionfacts.com). In the United States, nearly nine in 10 abortions occur in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and 56% occur in the first eight weeks. The availability of medical abortion the “abortion pill,” or mifepristone and new techniques that allow surgical abortions to be performed earlier in pregnancy are likely to reinforce the trend toward earlier abortions. The introduction of a new medical abortifacient, such as RU-486, added some new features in the debate. Unlike vacuum aspiration or curettage, RU-486 does not involve insertion of instruments into the uterus and thus poses no risk of accidental perforation and infection from unclean instruments. Furthermore, it does not require the same degree of technical skills as the surgical techniques used to terminate pregnancy. So, in this respect, a prescriptive method of abortion poses less risk to women than previous alternatives. With the development of mifepristone, known as RU-486 or the "abortion pill," abortion has become innocuous and reliable (abortionfacts.com). This product works 95.5% of the time when taken within the first seven weeks of pregnancy. According to abortion statistics from the Alan Guttmacher Institute, 33% of gynecologists who do not perform surgical abortions say they would prescribe RU-486. In addition to the reduction of risk for pregnant women, it is easier for women to use. Women who have religious reasons for avoiding or restricting termination of pregnancy may use RU-486 after fertilization has occurred but before implantation of the embryo. Clearly, abortion is not detrimental to the health of the mother. The 56% of U.S. women having abortions are in there 20s(Jones RK). The overall abortion rate is 21 per 1,000 U.S. women. Black and Hispanic women have higher abortion rates than non-Hispanic white women do. The rates are 49/1,000 and 33/1,000 among black and Hispanic women, respectively, vs. 13/1,000 among non-Hispanic white women (Finer). Black and Hispanic women have higher abortion rates primarily because they have higher rates of unintended pregnancy. One may ask what is the cost of surgical abortion. In 2001, the average charge for a surgical abortion at 10 weeks’ gestation was $468; but since most abortions in the United States are performed at low-cost clinics, women on average paid $372 for the procedure. Some 74% of women pay for abortions with their own money; Medicaid covers 13% of abortions, and 13% are billed directly to private insurance. Some women who pay for the procedure themselves may receive insurance reimbursement later. There are total of 32 states and the District of Columbia prohibits public funding of abortions, except in cases of life endangerment, rape or incest. South Dakota only provides public funding of abortions when necessary to protect the woman’s life, which is not in compliance with the federal Medicaid statute (abortionfacts.com), Another question one may ask is how safe is it? The risk of abortion complications is minimal when a trained professional in a hygienic setting performs the procedure: less than 1% of all U.S. abortion patients experience a major complication. The risk of death associated with abortion in the U.S. is less than 0.6 per 100,000 procedures, which is less than one-tenth as large as the risk associated with childbirth. (Henshaw) However, 68,000 women in countries where abortion is illegal die each year of abortion complications, and many times this number are injured by unsafe procedures. Between 1990 and 2000, there were between four and 11 deaths related to legal abortion in the United States each year. In 2002, a total of 357 women in the United States were reported to have died of maternal causes. The number of maternal deaths does not include all deaths among pregnant women—only those in which the cause reported on the death certificate is related to or aggravated by pregnancy or pregnancy management (cdc.gov). In developed countries, where the procedure is usually legal, abortion mortality is low 0.2-1.2 deaths per 100,000 abortions. But in developing regions excluding China, where abortion is often illegal, abortion mortality rate is hundreds times higher, 330 deaths per 100,000 abortions (cdc.gov). In conclusion, I feel that a women’s right to an abortion depends on her situation. I feel that if a woman should be able to have an abortion if her health is seriously endangered. I feel that a woman should not have an abortion just because she cannot afford the baby. There are other alternatives, such as adoption. School programs teaching adolescents about safe sex is not enough? Parents must be able to speak freely with their teen about sex at any given time. Abortion does not only affect the teen, but it affects everyone. Everyone has a right to believe in what they feel is right. We must respect a woman’s decision whether you consider it to be wrong or right. America is a country where everyone has the same rights. And one right, regarding bearing children, affect women. But for the anti-abortionists, who will hopefully be a little less narrow-minded and a little more considerate, Every woman deserves a right to choose . This is my research paper. And its due Thursday. I was not sure if it makes sense. So that’s y I asked to rephrase it. You don’t have to do it if u don’t want to. but does it make sence, you can atleast tell me that thanx
