		Also, FACT requires that a consumer who has an extended fraud alert on his or her consumer credit report file be excluded for five years from lists used to make prescreened offers of credit or insurance, unless the consumer requests otherwise.

	Dark matter
		The density of matter in the solar neighborhood is measured by sampling a uniform population of luminous stars that extends well above the disk of the galaxy.
		The dark matter that accounts for the critical density should, at least in the case of some kinds of dark matter, participate in the density fluctuations on large scales.
		Baryonic dark matter does exist: it is far more uncertain whether there exists enough to solve any of the dark matter problems, that is to say, dark matter in galaxy halos, dark matter in galaxy clusters and superclusters, or dark matter in an amount suficient to close the universe.

		Dark matter is just what its name implies; it is matter (or mass) in the universe that we cannot see directly using any of our telescopes.
		The way in which dark matter reveals its presence to us is through the gravitational effect it exerts on luminous matter in the universe.
		("Luminous" matter is the matter we can see with our telescopes.) The most obvious example of the gravitational effects of dark matter can be observed when looking at the rotation of galaxies.

		Particulate matter, or PM, is the term for particles found in the air, including dust, dirt, soot, smoke, and liquid droplets.
		Particulate matter is categorized as “fine” particles of 2.5 microns or less in diameter or “coarse” particles between 2.5 and 10 microns in diameter.
		Fine particles can penetrate into the sensitive regions of the respiratory tract. Health problems associated with particulate matter can get worse for sensitive people if they are exposed to high levels of fine particles for several days in a row.

	Physics: Light Quanta Photons: Wave Structure of Matter explains Photon Effect of Light Quanta
		In fact ALL Forces are Caused by a Change in Velocity of the Spherical In-Waves which causes a change in the location of the Wave-Center, which we observe as the accelerated Motion of the 'particle'.
		In fact Matter, as a Spherical Standing Wave which causes the 'Field' effect, interacts with other matter in discrete standing wave patterns, not with continuous force fields as he had imagined, thus his task was ultimately impossible, as he sadly came to realise towards the end of his life.
		Instead, as matter was already assumed to be a particle, he was looking for wave properties of matter to complement the known particle properties.
