How is marble made?
Metamorphic rock is a rock that has been
changed by heat and pressure. In this instance, marble, which is formed from

Fossilized materials in the li... | <urn:uuid:c5d7b276-a303-40c8-b068-a35a82ca1c00> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.marbletoronto.com/ | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783393093.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154953-00138-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.929325 | 986 | 3.59375 | 4 |

In common parlance, a theory is a hunch or guess about something (e.g., "I have a theory that my teacher is an alien").
