It is up to you to tell if it is Fact Or Fiction.
I will post the Answer tomorrow when I post the next Fact Or Fiction Question
#1
When Caesar, The first Emperor was born,
He had to be surgically removed from his mother's womb,
hence the term Cesarean section
Fact Or Fiction
Well it's sort of been an old wive's tale for years...... and since I'm old..... I'll have to go with the old wive's tale.
If I remember my history correctly, I believe that "Caesar" originated from an ancestor who was born by caesarean section. I think there was a Roman law that required a baby to be cut from its mother's womb in the case that the mother died during childbirth.
I don't know if anyone knows for sure. I would have to say fiction.
Good replys
A#1
There are various theories regarding the orgins of the term.
The most plausible is that the procedure's name derives from the
Latin verb Caedere (caesum), "to cut"

Q#4
Esker is an art form of the Eskimos
Fact Or Fiction
fiction - esker has something to do with glaciers - http://knowledgerush.com/kr/encyclopedia/Esker/ says that:
Eskers are long, winding ridges of stratified sand and gravel which occur in glaciated and formerly glaciated regions of Europe and North America. They are frequently several miles in length and, because of their peculiar uniform shape, somewhat resemble railroad embankments. Eskers are the deposits left by streams which flowed within and under glaciers; after the retaining ice walls melt away, the stream deposits remain as long winding ridges.

Q#8
There are 29 different bones in the skull
Fact Or Fiction
do you count teeth as skull bones too?
the-mk
That is a tricky one, you will have to post the exact list you are claiming, since depending on what you count as bones I have seen 28, 29, and 30. So since it is so close to I'm going to say the list you found is 29 so FACT
The cranium has 8;
The face has 15 (including the lower jaw);
The ears have 6.
= 29
I would have to say FACT (I've heard both 28 and 29). Unless you are starting at birth, and if I remember correctly at that time there are around 44 or 45 (it's been a while since Anatomy & Physiology). As we grow, some of the bones fuse together.
I'm to Dumb to knowdo you count teeth as skull bones too?
I just copy from copy
MM makes me wonder about you your not related to J Dalmer (the guy who ate people) are youI have seen 28, 29, and 30.
A #8
The human body has about 350 bones at birth,
But during our lifetime, some tend to fuse and
we can finish up with only around 206.

Q#11
George Foreman won his last heavyweight crown at age 45
Fact Or Fiction
I guess that depends on what you consider heavyweight crown. At 45 he won the WBA heavyweight title again Michel Moorer (Nov 1994) which made him the oldest person to win one. He then went on to fight Axel Schulz of Germany to defend his remaining IBF heavyweight title in April 1995 when he was 46 and won so by keeping his crown at 46 in the IBF I would say FICTION.
Jeff.
Do you realy think winning a title and defending it are the same think
What about the fight he lost to his wife
