Employers love to make potential new hires jump through verbal hoops in hopes of weeding out the unworthy and gauging your willingness to “play ball” with management, but can they legally ask you so many questions?
Lifehacker has put together a list of The Most Common Illegal Job Interview Questions so you can go into a job interview armed with knowledge.
Everybody knows questions about your age, religion and health are no-nos, but did you know potential employers aren’t allowed to ask whether you have a criminal background, or even if you like to drink after work?
This interesting article also includes a section on what you should do if they ask you these illegal questions, with suggested work arounds so you don’t give up on that job just because the interviewer doesn’t know the rules.

Same applies when cops, Homeland 'Security' agents, TSA bullies, etc. ask questions that the federal government has already said are illegal (such as asking what your Social Security Number is, without being able to provide you with which act of Congress specifically allows them to ask). Just make up an answer.
This, however, is a better example of neural programming. While it is interesting that everybody got the third note "correct", it's because of sensation triggers in the visual field. The ratio of the dance steps are proportional to one another. Thus, the expectation at even a subconcious level, is to follow the same musical distance, which we call an interval. In this case, it is a called a "major second", or "whole step" (think skipped notes on a piano).
The other parts of mimicry, such as when the crowd gets the high and low notes merely by his movements, are directly related to the fact that they hear him singing these pitches earlier in the piece. In music, subtle neural programming goes on during repetition of simple material and listening to melody. The brain has this amazing ability to construct and compare, analyze and order. That's what's so cool about music. It's like fun exercise for your brain. NEAT!!!
It is still really in its infantile state so far, and I'm a pretty busy guy. But I'm plotting and documenting, researching and picking up pieces here and there. I visit here often. I'll be pitching my book at neatorama anyway, so who knows?
