A2 Ernest W. Adams Lived in The UnitedStates of America (1966–1999)May 22 No. Themovies depict large houses for two reasons: The rich people whomake movies have little conception of how most of America lives. They all livein big houses in California and think that’s normal. Large interior setsprovide more room for action, and of course for the cameras and crew. It’s justeasier to film if you have a big set than a little one. (Spaceships are nowherenear as big on the inside as the movies make them look, either—and for the samereason.) Q3 How is it that pioneers in 1800scould drink water right from lake or river without any problem, but now wecan’t? A3 Chris Harper Biologist,Astrophysicist and all around seeker. Fri Actually they couldn’t just drink directly from a river.They just did it anyways as they didn’t have the luxury of being able to boiltheir water. The main reason youdon’t do it now is runoff. Runoff from the land with pollution, fertilizers,manure and all kinds of toxins that might be in the air or water. Back then therewasn’t much of that going on but do you know what there was? Parasites. Meet Giardia Lamblia: These littleparasites are found in cool, clear, mountain rivers and springs. Basically ifthere animals around and their poop gets in the water you’ll find these guysswimming around in it. They will cause giardiasis. It’s a nasty little diseaseas they take up residence in your small intestine and decide to make a go ofit. It won’t kill you,just make you really sick. This is why if you’re ever out in the woods and needto drink some water from a stream or something boilit first. Then let it cool and pass it a few times between two cleancontainers to aerate it bit and get rid of that “flat” boiled flavour. Q4 I have 2 rooms on the roof and thewater tank at the same level.

This amount isequivalent to the sum of all the premiums paid during the tenure of the policyalong with additional benefits that are offered by the insurer.Usually, these benefits are added at regular intervals and the overall corpusis a considerable amount at the end of the policy term. The conditions forreceiving the maturity amount are outlined clearly in the policy document. As there aredifferent types of life insurance plans, there are different types of maturitybenefits that can be seen below: Endowment plan An endowment planis a combination of a savings plan and an insurance plan. The funds are invested in debtinstruments. Therefore, a policyholder can expect steady returns. Ifthe policyholder survives the policy term, then the amassed corpus is paid as amaturity benefit to the policyholder. Certain savings plans such as HDFC LifeSanchay Plus also offer the maturity benefit in the form of regular incomerather than a lump sum amount. United linked insurance plan A ULIP plan is linked to the share market and alsooffers protection in the form of insurance.
