to txuser: As far as I can tell, for Bahamas one neeeds a tourist visa. For Mexico - as long as the cruise is not more than 3 days, one does not need any visa (anyone in the world does not need a Mexico visa for a cruise upto 3 days). For entering back in US, either you can enter on a stamped visa or on AP. Pls check as well.

discriminant function Any algorithm or assessment tool to evaluate disease severity or guide clinical or administrative decisions in health care. In gastroenterology, e.g., a discriminant function is commonly used to gauge the severity of alcoholic hepatitis. It uses two variables, the patient's measured protime (PT) and total serum bilirubin level.
