Are people from Argentina hispanic?
Sorry! I have always thought that the categorization used in the U.S. is ridiculous! I don't believe ethnicity should be dictated only by the language you speak. And, in this particular case, unlike most areas of Latin America, most inhabitants are of European descent. As an example: there are many U.S., German, Swiss, Italian, families who have settled in Argentina decades ago... and their descendants mother tongue has changed. Are we to consider them Hispanic? As I understand it, ethnicity is more about race, not nationality alone.

Because of it's rarity. In the world 1 out of 25 000 is affected by PKU. In the States, 1 out of 15 000 is affected, Turkey 1 out of 2 300. In Finland, however, only one out of 100 000 has PKU. When the chances for the child are 0,00001% to have PKU, it's not routinely tested on all infants.

I would say in his late 30's. Johnny Depp turned 40 just before the release of the first film (Black Pearl, 2003) and is perfect for the part.
Actually I think hes more like 50 something because in Dead Man's Chest his deal with Davy Jones said that he would have the Black Pearl for 30 years which came to an end so assuming he was around 20ish when he first became the captain of the Black Pearl that would make him maybe 50 ish.
Jack is only about in his 30's. He only captained the Black Pearl 3 years before being marooned on an island by his crew. Only to have Barbossa taking over. And in Dead Man's Chest I'm pretty sure the deal was 10-15 years because Barbossa only sailed for like 10 maybe.
* Given the time period from the first film to the fourth film (2003-2011), Jack will likely be in his late 40s or early 50s by the fifth movie, Dead Men Tell No Tales (to film in 2015 for release in 2017).

What is the most popular ethnic food in England?
- Based on my own personal, limited survey, I say Indian... hands down!
- I think it's Chinese food; you can probably find a Chinese take-out or restaurant in every place in England.
- A recent survey declared that curry had overtaken fish 'n' chips in the popularity stakes.
From my knowledge base ethnic wise it is with no doubt Indian food mainly curry and Madras curry at that, yellow and very mild also known as massamam curry which has a Muslim influence.This goes back to the British Empire in it's hayday. Calcutta and Bombay and Madras were the main setlements as far back as 1700 B.C. at that time their were other settlements in India from other countries. Most notibly Pondicherry (French),Cochin (Dutch), Goa (Portuguese). In 1860 with the fall of the Moghul empire the British with the most powerful army took over basically the whole country except for a small area around Deli and the Mysore region at the southern tip of India. India actually became India the nation only in 1947 when the British relinquished their rule. Almost 300 years in India and the travels of individuals back and forth has made Indian Curry the ethnic mainstay in British cuisine.

summer. they would have the same seasons at the same time because they are both in the northern hemisphere.

What historical events took place in Medieval Europe?
It was toward the end of the midieval period that society had its first look at something called a "free man". There were commoners, aristocats and a few free men. Once the gun came in to being (or their forerunners, cannon etc) the phrase "God created man; the gun made them equal" man could now stand together as free men and do battle with even the best trained king's soldier. Initially medieval times society was controlled by looting other kindoms to satisfy the peaesants but over time better agriculture and science led to development within one's own kingdom and fewer people died as a result.
