Answer to Question 1

Booking involves documenting who was arrested, the time of the arrest, and the offense involved.

Answer to Question 2

Once arrested and booked, the suspect is then brought before a magistrate or judge in what is known as the initial appearance.

The initial appearance is designed to serve a number of purposes. In a misdemeanor case, such as a minor in possession, the trial may take place at this stage. In a more serious case, however, the accused will be advised of:

 The reason he or she is being detained (notification of formal charges often comes later at arraignment)
 His or her protection against self-incrimination
 His or her right to appointed counsel, if necessary

The judge may also set bail at the initial appearance, but the bail determination often requires a separate hearing.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
