a mare hick an on Crime > Prisoners > Share of prison capacity filled 52 days 19 hours 27 minutes 23 seconds ago	I think listings for the countries with 0% of their prisons filled are erroneous. The USA and Kazakhstan (I didn't look up any others) have among the highest per capita incarceration rates (as listed on this site), so if the 0% figure is correct, these countries have enough prison capacity to incarcerate the entire populace.
natalie on Health > Breast cancer incidence 56 days 13 hours 48 minutes 37 seconds ago	I read somewhere that there could be a connection with drinking milk! Chinese don't drink milk and their rates are very low. Something about hormones in the milk. Research it!
Ruben(Puerto Rico on Puerto Rico Profile > Crime 57 days 5 hours 13 minutes 35 seconds ago	We do have a crime problem in Puerto Rico.If you take some time and visit this link http://www.policia.gobierno.pr/ you will notice that the crime is concentrated in a few metropolitan areas. The rest of the Island is very safe. This is the same all over the world.I have lived in Texas, Oklahoma San francisco California and Puerto Rico and believe me there is good and bad everywhere you go.My recommendation to you.Talk to your hotel personnel ask all the questions about safe areas and where to go. Visit Old San Juan and enjoy the rest of the Island . Go away from the metro area and you are going to have a wonderful time.San Juan is too crowded for me.Have a good trip!
dave on 59 days 18 hours 11 minutes 46 seconds ago	All of you above are simple....most of the information given is per 100,000 people hence it is a rate and overall population doesn't matter. Even if the majority of the numbers on both sides above were off by 40% the U.S. still has the U.K. beat in a majority of categories for lower numbers. Numbers of prisoners in prisons doesn't reflect crime rates directly alone there are several other causes that effect crime rate drastically more than people in prison such as policing, laws, and even the ever controversial abortion effect crime rates more than prison.
agslaser.com on Encyclopedia > VIN etching 64 days 6 hours 19 minutes 10 seconds ago	The inflated price of $199 - $299 mentioned above as from car dealers usually includes a theft loss warranty that reimburses the consumer up to $5,000 if their car is stolen and not recovered. Also, these marks can be buffed out of the glass and therefore are not really permanent.
vida on Education > Average IQ 68 days 16 hours 59 minutes 38 seconds ago	let me first appreciate your effort in providing a so called IQ index. As a university professor I regret the fact that our knowledge is STILL CRUDE about the IQ index of our own nation let alone other countries .THE IQ should be treated as composite entity . a TREASURE GATE that is open to discover yet . I have had kids to train and teach in african countries and else where. LET ME say that they were greatly talented . You could find great greed in their eyes to learn and they were really fast learners!!! this kind of list ,to me , seems , an understimation of so many scientific facts!!!!!!!!!
Steven on People > Total Population 71 days 17 hours 38 minutes 58 seconds ago	The data for the UK (Britain) is slightly out-of-date. The population is now 63,181,775 (UK Census 2011). Source: www.ons.gov.uk/ons/guide-method/census/2011/uk-census/index.html
Overpopulation bad on People > Birth rate 72 days 19 hours 23 minutes 2 seconds ago	Utah, fortunately is not at a higher live birth rate than Uganda, Niger, Mali, etc. Why would you imagine Utah to be exceeding some Oceanless Desert African Nation. You scared me. Utah's only excuse could be that it is mostly mormon. Your gross number calculate a LBR of 18.8/1000 (for 2010) Utah continued to report the highest birth rate in the U.S. with 18.2 live births per 1,000 total population in 2011.
Mary Mitchell on Encyclopedia > Arnold Murray 78 days 19 hours 55 minutes 54 seconds ago	I watch Pastor Murray daily and have his teachings on Cd. He reads the word and has you research as well. He is not a white supremacists as some say. Pastor makes it clear that all souls were created on the 6th day and he said it is absolutely crazy that it is taught that black people were born out of Hams sin. I agree! Black people are equal with white people. God loves us equally. They also say Pastor Murray does not believe in the Trinity. That's a lie as well. He teaches on the Father,Son and Holy Spirit. There IS no mistake about that. I have learned lots. The Word will back it up. God also says many will be deceived. MANY!
Raul on Mortality > Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus 81 days 4 hours 7 minutes 26 seconds ago	Mexico is also the largest per capita consumer of Coke.
Dan on Crime > Murders with firearms 84 days 14 hours 6 minutes 32 seconds ago	Yea, but the difference between sharks and cars, and the use of guns is that they are not deliberately used by people to kill. In other countries, you have disturbed people as well, but they do not have such ready access to high fire power. Incidents recently in Canada and China involved disturbed people attacking innocents - but with a knife and all the victims lived. No right to guns ever trumps the death of those children. If you must have guns, use the type intended by the original drafters of that amendment - muskets and blackpoweder
Roger Rosales on Religion > Islam > Percentage Muslim 84 days 16 hours 54 minutes 35 seconds ago	In my opinion, Philippines is composed of only 5 up to 6% Muslims because I had been to many places in the Philippines and there are provinces with very very few Muslims if not 0% of the population. That figure is very much correct.
Lindsay on Encyclopedia > Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh 89 days 52 minutes 6 seconds ago	The Botanics are a tranquil and pleasant place to walk or just go to sit in the open air. They're tucked away and you can really escape the rush of the rest of the city. You can see more photos on my review of the Garden on Weekend Notes: The Botanics on Weekend Notes
Lindsay on Encyclopedia > Stockbridge, Edinburgh 89 days 1 hour 4 minutes 12 seconds ago	Stockbridge is a lovely little part of Edinburgh that has the feel of a village, but with the amenities of a city. St. Stephen St. is a great street with lots of independent shops, and the market is well worth a visit on a Sunday. You can read a bit more about them on my Weekend Notes page: St. Stephen Street Review
Isoa Komaitai on Encyclopedia > Serua 92 days 10 hours 1 minute 47 seconds ago	The only problem with the province of Serua is that the " Tukutuku Raraba" is missing at the Native Land Commission at Suva, Fiji which should contain the history of Serua and chiefs. The province is really in great darkness.
