What are the three misconceptions about general wound ballistics?
The three common misconceptions about general wound ballistics are, the bullet "drills" its way through the body or object leaving a small entry and equally small exit hole. The second is the bullet leaves a small entry hole and an enormous exit hole. The third is that when someone is show by anything other than an air rifle, the impact is enough to lift the person off the ground and send him/her flying through the air. All of these myths are wrong.
It is not illegal to miss a doctors appointment.
However if the child was under 16 and needed to see a doctor urgently (i.e for an chest infection or something that requires immediate treatment, as opposed to something like acne or ingrowing toenail's), there would probably be some sort of parenting offense involved by not taking the child to the doctor (unless it was just forgetfulness that meant the appointment was missed). If the child is over 16, it's no longer the parent's responsibility to take the child to doctors' appointments (unless the child is not mentally capable of looking after themselves).
If the appointment was to discuss referral to another specialist, or some non-life threatening condition (i.e a non-urgent appointment), it is not "illegal" to not take the child, but it is not helpful either.
Obviously if the appointment was booked knowing that the child would be with the other parent, the other parent should have been told as soon as possible about the appointment to check they were available to take the child (and if not, rearrange for a convenient time). And you should always notify your doctors surgery if you are going to miss your appointment.
Can doctors tell if you smoked marinara?
can you tell me the steps involved in smoking marinara? that would be interesting
if you're talking about "marijuana" then yes, they can tell I don't think there's a doctor alive today that can tell if you smoked marinara. A chef, perhaps. Marinara is an Italian sauce. As for marijuana, yes they can tell, with a urine test, a blood test, a hair folicle test. There are also tests for marijuana and other drugs available at the drug store over the counter so parents can test their children without the children knowing.

Does the psychiatrist have Ph.D or PsyD?
A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (MD/ DO or equivalent) specializing in treatment/ management of psychological/ psychiatric illness. Psychiatrists are physicians licenced to prescribe medication, & qualification as such requires pre-med education (usually an appropriate bachelor's degree); 4 years of medical school (MD/DO); passing of medical licencing exams (USMLE/ COMLEX), & successful completion of appropriate internship & residency. Some psychiatrists may also hold PhD/ PsyD degrees, and/ or other graduate degrees/ diplomas in fields like pharmacology, neurology, neuroscience etc, but these reflect individual research/ specialty interests; they're not the prerequisite qualifications to be a psychiatrist, which is a medical specialty.
Research psychologists, clinical psychologists etc will often hold PhDs or PsyDs, but these are not necessarily prerequisites of working in these fields. A psychologist is a scientist who studies the workings of the mind/ cognition/ neuroscience etc, primarily as an academic discipline; usually in universities, research institutes, or in privately run companies. Clinical psychologists work in fields like behavioral therapy, rehabilitation, & psychotherapy. Frequently they work with psychiatrists as members of multi-disciplinary teams, but they are not medically qualified, & are not licenced (generally - there are a few limited exceptions) independently to prescribe medication. Many work in private practice - as psychotherapists, counsellors etc.. The "Gold Standard" of qualification as such is the PsyD, but licencing regulations vary from state to state, & in some places anyone can set up in business as a "psychotherapist", "counsellor" etc without any specific qualification.

How many years does it take to become a spine surgeon?
Spine surgery is performed by doctors who have completed training in either neurosurgery or orthopedic surgery. To become a spine surgeon you must have a medical degree (8 years after high school); then complete a residency in either orthopedic surgery (5 years) or neurosurgery (6-7 years). Orthopedic surgeons who wish to specialize in spine surgery usually complete a spine fellowship following their residency, which is an additional 1 to 2 years of training. Neurosurgery residency provides adequate exposure to spine surgery, but some neurosurgeons choose to spend an additional year in spine fellowship.
So, including college, medical school, residency and fellowship it takes between 14 and 16 years of post high school education to become a spine surgeon.
