No, you cannot move or bend a spoon with your mind. Instead you need to realise the truth: \n\nTHERE IS NO SPOON

In the 1970s, there were many reports of people who claimed to have the ability to cause such events. The most notable in the West was Uri Geller, a former stage magician who demonstrated his alleged psychic powers by bending metal spoons (hence the popular name above) as well as metal keys and several other objects and materials. However the reports were met with skepticism by most scientists, and many reported performances were eventually exposed as tricks and frauds by professional stage magicians such as James Randi.\n\nIn most cases, the trick could be accomplished simply by misdirection, a basic tool of the stage magician. Namely, the performer draws the audience's attention away from the spoon during the brief moment while he is actually bending it with his hands. The typical bend, where the bowl meets the handle, requires relatively little force.\n\nAnother possible method is to use a metal spoon that has been previously doctored so that a simple flick will cause it to bend. This can be done, for instance, by repeatedly bending the spoon at the desired spot, until the metal cracks and weakens. A skilled magician can disguise a sharp flick so that it appears smooth and natural.

No, AIDS can only be transmitted by blood or semen. It also cannot live long outside the human body, and can be killed easily with simple everyday disinfectants. Unless there was blood all over the doorknob and you cut your hand open while opening it and rubbed your wound into the blood there's nothing to worry about.\n\nBlood or semen. That's it.

I know TB can be transmitted through the air so I would imagine it could be easily transmitted through saliva.

This is a type of tuberculosis in which the bacilli are spread by the blood from one point of infection, producing small tubercles in other parts of the body. You can read more about it here.\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000624.htm

It depends on the situation, but it could be that the swallow reflex is bad.  Sending something down the throat could cause it to go into the lungs, rather than the digestive system.\n\nA feeding tube (there are many types) simply bypasses this danger.

Actually boils can be passed from one person to another. And it can be if you touch something that the boil has touched, example if someone sat on something and their boil touched it, then you sat on the same thing and your skin came in contact with the bacteria, then it could enter your system, especially if you had a scratch, cut or insect bite where the bacteria could get in.

NO it can not, unless the infected person bleeded on the food and you put it in your mouth (which has to have an open wound) no later than five minutes after the blood came out of the infected person which, by the way, is very unlikely.

In most cases tuberculosis also called TB is found in one spot usually in the lung or sometimes in a bone.  Actually it can grow in many places in the body but usually just one place at a time.  If your immune system is not working too well the TB germ can spread to lots of areas of the body at the same time.  That is called disseminated tuberculosis.  It takes a good doctor and a very obedient patient to get it under control when it gets to that stage.  Good luck and find a great infectious disease doctor who can really help!

The HIV virus is not very robust and will certainly not survive the cooking process.  It is only a risk to others when it is able to enter the body.  This either means into the bloodstream or into an oriface.  This usualy does not hapen in the kitchen.  Unless injected, it is notoriously difficult to get into the bloodstream, as open wounds, where is could enter, tend to bleed and flush the virus out.

There is no evidence that HIV can be spread through the following: kissing; SHARING FOOD UTENSILS, towels or bedding; swimming in pools; using toilet seats; using telephones; or having mosquito or other insect bites. \nhttp://www.intelihealth.com/IH/ihtIH/WSIHW000/8776/24762/195726.html?d=dmtHealthAZ\n\nAND:\n\nYou cannot contract AIDS from: beds \nbreathing \nchewing pencils \nclothing \ncombs or hairbrushes \ncoughing or sneezing \ndrinking fountains \ndoor knobs \ngiving or donating blood \ngum \nhot tubs  hugging \nkissing \nnail files \nshaking hands \n***sharing food or drinks*** \nsilverware \nsitting in the same classroom \nswimming pools \ntears \ntelephones \ntoilet seats \ntouching \ntowels \nhttp://www.caps.ucsf.edu/capsweb/curricula/aidslec.html

The most common way disease is spread is by the hands.  Other ways are by coming into contact with contaminated objects and surfaces, and by droplet infection (sneezing, coughing).  Body fluids have already been mentioned.
