mEniscus is the curve or crescent of the surface on a liquid or substance and can be concave or convex. The meniscus should be taking in to account when a readings made to make precise measurements.
You must read from the bottom of the meniscus. In a narrow, graduated glass cylinder, water has a slightly domed surface, with the centre being higher than the side, so giving a false reading if the centre height is taken.
Depends on how much liquid you have. Doesn't really matter if it's colourless or not, either. Colourless doesn't mean invisible. I don't think volume would be your primary concern if your liquid was literally invisible. If you have a small amount (between 10 and 0.1 ml) I would probably use a graduated pipette to suck the liquid up and then look at how much it comes to (try and evacuate or account for any gas pockets). If you know exactly what your liquid is (say, water) a better way would be to weigh something before you put the liquid into it, then weigh it again afterwards. The difference in weight can be used to get a volume of the liquid if you know its density. This will not work well at all for mysteries or mixed solutions. BUT what you can do is use a micropipette to take an EXACT amount of your mystery liquid or solution then weigh this exact amount. Do this for 1ml (or scale the weight afterwards to 1 ml's worth) and you just got the density. Now weigh your solution and work out the volume using V = Mass/Density. (Don't forget the add back in the 1ml or so you took out to find the density in the first place!) A more common solution to the problem would be to just use a measuring cylinder. This is less accurate but actually it's usually good to 0.1 of a cm accuracy, which isn't bad at all. Remember that surface tension can cause a bulge at the top of your liquid and you should measure from the bottom of the bulge (where the liquid meets the glass) not the top.

When reading the volume of fluid in a graduated cylinder, the eye should be at the same level as the meniscus (the curve at the surface of the liquid). This helps to avoid parallax error and ensures an accurate reading of the volume.
Miniscus is located in the knee. Maybe the extra weight of fetus would have an extra effect on the pain of a torn miniscus. Unlike other parts of the knee meniscus has some capability of healing, a little extra weight shouldn't hurt it, maybe you hurt it some other way.
The correct spelling is meniscus (a curved cartilage structure found in joints, notably in the knee).
Water in a graduated cylinder forms a meniscus due to the capillary action, which is the result of the water molecules being attracted to the walls of the cylinder. This causes the water's surface to curve slightly upward or downward at the edges, creating the meniscus shape.
It depends on how they calculate then disability payments are calculated and in which state you live in.
You read a meniscus from the bottom to the top by looking at the lowest point of the curved surface of a liquid in a container. This is where the measurement is taken for volume.
