A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid material, whose constituent atoms, molecules, or ions are arranged in an orderly repeating pattern extending in all three spatial dimensions. The scientific study of crystals and crystal formation is crystallography. The process of crystal formation via mechanisms of crystal growth is called crystallization or solidification. The word crystal is derived from the Ancient Greek word κρύσταλλος (krustallos), meaning "rock-crystal" but also "ice", from κρύος (kruos), "icy cold, frost". The word once referred particularly to quartz, or "rock crystal". Most metals encountered in everyday life are polycrystals. Crystals are often symmetrically intergrown to form crystal twins.

I've been taking methamphetamine for about 9 years. It's like a strong strong cup of coffee. If methamphetamine is the same as crystal meth, I just don't get why they steal and rob for such drug. I can go without methamphetamine for many days, the result will just cause me to be a bit slower in thought. Is crystal meth the same as methamphetamine or is this a claim from people that know nothing about the two drugs. Please help me to understand. Thanks. Asked by Ryan I - Thu Oct 1 03:19:50 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. There are multiple differences between prescription methamphetamine (Desoxyn) and the kind that is cooked in clandestine labs. Most importantly, the strength of the prescription variety is consistent. And if you are taking the drug as prescribed, you aren't treating the drug as an addict would. An addict or someone who is using the drug to "party" continues using far beyond the dosage of what you're taking. And the potency can differ greatly from one batch to the next. Also, people who are using meth to get high end up needing more of the drug to feel less of a high (aka chasing the dragon) because they build a tolerance... that escalates into needing the drug just to feel normal and/or function. Addicts will crash, sometimes for days,… [cont.] Answered by Sweet Melissa - Thu Oct 1 15:55:45 2009 How does a crystal quartz cluster charge other gemstones? Q. I just bought a crystal quartz cluster for 20 pounds for the purpose of charging my other gemstones: Turquise, labradorite, aqua marine, onyx, rose quartz and carnelian.. I know that it cleanses and charges them if you place it on top for 24 hours but how? What exactly is the process? What qualities does it imbue on the other crystals? Asked by 8 out of 10 rats - Sat Dec 5 09:24:54 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. Quarts is an amplifier. It helps other stones, and energies become stronger and more clear. I usually let the crystal speak to me and I like to hand select them. Cleansing the stones is done using salt, then letting the stone sit in the sun and moon light for 24 hours.

Q. I looked at several "healing gemstones and crystals" books about the subject, and each book recommends something different. One book recommends onyx being placed on the each ear for 15 minutes, where a few other books don't even mention onyx but recommend quartz crystal, amethyst, or another gemstone. Where should the gemstone be placed, worn, or should an elixir be made? Asked by hd8161 - Tue Jul 8 23:28:34 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Stones or crystals do not have any magic powers.
