Does braiding make your hair grow longer, true or false and why?

True. Its not the braids that are making your hair grow longer its the lack of attention you have to give your hair that makes the difference. You brush and comb it less. And you put less product in it which helps it grow faster.Does braiding make your hair grow longer, true or false and why?
False, because hair growth is determined genetically and hormonally. It occurs beneath the surface so no amount of trimming, braiding, shampooing, .... will do anything about it. It does sometime grow faster during adolescence and pregnancy because the hormones are stronger then. Hair will seem to grow faster on straight hair than curly because it goes straight down and not horizontally. It will also appear to grow faster on short people than tall because it takes less time to grow to the chin, neck, back, in comparison.





Really tight braids left in for long periods of time may even cause traction alopecia, which is hair loss in a specific area because the hair follicle (part under the skin where it grows) is being pulled so hair it is damaged.





However, big braids will protect your hair from damage so you will have to trim split ends less, resulting in seemingly faster growing hair.

  • It is more helping if you exercise or workout first before taking breakfast, True or False?

    I heard that it will cause your metabolism to increase throughout the day, helping you to burn calories.It is more helping if you exercise or workout first before taking breakfast, True or False?
    Working out before eating breakfast offers no additional or superior rewards. In general, any time you exercise, you'll raise your metabolism during the session and for some time afterwards. Studies have shown that the more intensely you exercise, the longer your metabolic rate stays raised. The magnitude and duration of this increase varies from person to person, and from workout to workout. Lipodrene is taken by other people helping them to enhance their metabolism, why not try it?It is more helping if you exercise or workout first before taking breakfast, True or False?
    false because u hav no energy to workout when u first wake up before u have breakfast and ur metabolism only works faster 4 an hour after excercise so it doesn't make much of a difference.
    True. It is MUCH better to work out before breakfast for a variety of reasons. Basically, it revs up your metabolism for the day, but it also burns off your stored fat, and not calories from the breakfast you just ate.
    True. Exercising BEFORE breakfast kickstarts your metabolism. When you eat your breakfast your metabolism is increased even more. A good 30 minute workout can increase the the amount of calories being burned by your body for up to 12 hours, depending on the intensity of the workout.

    True or false major third parties can spoil the chances of a major party candidate?

    Government homework....i am stuck!True or false major third parties can spoil the chances of a major party candidate?
    True, true, true, true, TRUE, TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUE!!!!!!





    Sadly, we were ';privileged'; to have 8 years of Clinton because of Ross Perot.





    Then, in the 2000 election (see Wiki article below), there was all the controversy over Bush's votes in Florida. The difference between AlGore and Bush in the total US Popular vote was 543,895... in which ALGORE had WON the popular vote, but Bush won the ELECTORAL vote.





    Now, Ralph Nadar received 2,882,955 popular votes. His voting base may have gone to AlGore, but then, it may have split enough to sway the other way. If you look at the chart in the article, the other ';conservative'; MINOR candidates that ran were Pat Buchanan, Harry Browne, and Howard Phillips. The popular votes for these three, combined, were 931,346... enough to overcome the Algore ';edge'; in the popular vote for Bush had these candidates NOT ';pulled away'; these CONSERVATIVE votes from Bush. In this way, the Florida Electoral vote controversy (the ';Hanging Chads';) may NEVER have needed to happen at all.





    But the ';Major'; third parties can, and HAVE, influenced the outcomes of elections.








    Republican from before she was born... and PROUD of it.True or false major third parties can spoil the chances of a major party candidate?
    True.





    Example. Ross Perot was a third party candidate when Bush I was running for a second term. Clinton was running against him. Ross was considered a conservative so he split the conservative (Republican) vote with Bush I. Whereas all the Liberals (Democrats) voted for Clinton. So even though Clinton did not get the majority vote, he got more than Bush I or Perot so he won.





    It went like this.





    Clinton 43.01% of the popular vote.


    Bush I 37.45%


    Perot 18.91%.





    Had Perot not been in the election, Bush probably would have gotten those votes, for a total of 56.36% which would have been a clear majority and he would have won.





    Bottom line, if you have a third party candidate, the candidate of the major party most like him will see ';his'; voter base split and he will lose.





    That could happen in 2012 if Hillary decides to run. I see that as a possibility I think Obama is cutting her out of the loop and I am willing to bet that around the 2010 election he will say she not effective and he will fire her. That will be too late for her to run for any office in the 2010 election and knowing her reputation, she just might run to ensure Obama loses, as payback.
    it happened when Teddy Roosevelt changed his party to the





    Bull Moose party (progressive) and took votes away from Taft so Woodrow





    Wilson could win the elections
    That's the IDEA, isn't it. But if the third party can spoil another party's chances, then the third party becomes a major too.
    True, Bob Barr, H. Ross Perot and many others even a comedian, Pat Paulson who ran on the Stag Party platform(he garnered 3% of the vote AFTER he withdrew in 1968).
    True its simple math.3rd parties usually take from both parties.
    Yeah, Mr Nader has really roughed up the elections in the past years. Last time he almost got 1% of the votes
    Why do people assume Ross Perot didn't take votes from the democrats?
    Ross Perot
    True - E.g., Ross Perot.

    True or false. When the interest rate increases consumers hold less money?

    I need an explanation as to why it is true or false also.True or false. When the interest rate increases consumers hold less money?
    false. when the interest rate increases consumers hold MORE money. the interest rate determines how much they get on the money they save. so if the rate goes from 2 to 5 percent, people will earn more on their savings so they will make an effort to put a lot into the savings. if it goes down from 5 to 2 percent, they will earn less on their savings so they dont bother to save it and just spend it.True or false. When the interest rate increases consumers hold less money?
    it's true if u are the borrower coz u will definitely pay high interest, so you will pay much more than u have borrowed... but on the other hand, like if u have savings in bank it is much better for u if they offer high interest for your savings account, ergo, you will earn more.
    False. In demand pull inflation the consumers hold more money and they demand more of goods and services on their higher income or more people getting into employment. This means the consumers hold more money than usual. When this happens inflationary pressure goes high and the Fed or central banks raise interest rates to contain inflation.


    Cost push inflation seldom happens in US due to input price controls stipulated by Paretto optimal criterions. If this happens what you say can be true.
    do your own homework....or i'm telling your econ 101 professor
    they will save more and spend less. So false.
    True, since most of the US families are deeply in debt, they will have to pay even higher mortgage payments/credit card interests, therefore hold less money.
    The goal of the fed when increasing interest rate is to slow spending so people would save more. Therefore, the answer to your question is false. It is when interest rates are low, people tend to spend; thus having money less money in savings.
    I dont think the average consumer determines what they save by interest rates alone...A rise or decline in rates may alter ones decision to make significant purchases (ie. car or home) but really does not change the regular saving or spending habits of the regular consumer...





    If it did, then nobody would ever carry credit card debt at 20% but they do so obviously the rates didnt affect the way they decided to spend

    Is this true or false about relationships?

    is it true that even though your in a relationship with someone and love him or her, do you want to have sex with other attractive men or women constantly?Is this true or false about relationships?
    Doesn't happen to me, and I would imply that would only happen to a guy who isn't getting what he needs in the relationship, which is why his mind would wander so..Is this true or false about relationships?
    Just because you are in love with some one does not mean that you wont find other people attractive. And finding people attractive means that you want to **** them. If you really love the person, it just makes it easier to not **** the other person. Me and my wife both find other people attractive. People dont just turn ugly because you are in love.
    do you want to ';have'; sex or just ';think'; about sex with other people? you can be in love, and be walking in a mall and pass a really cute person and wonder what they would be like in bed, but you shouldn't be going ';god, i want to nail him, i wonder where he lives';. that would be bad.
    its common for ppl to fantasize about doing the deed with others, but how they react to that fantasy is another story. for instance some ppl love to role play as a way of acting on that fantasy while some ppl cheat as a result of that fantasy.

    I agree. Aiming with a mouse is SOOOO much easier than analog sticks.

    Aiming with analogs is such a clumsy hit and miss affair.





    Also, a nice thing about WASD is there all those keys next to it, perfect for swapping to your fave weapons quick and easy!





    How can you tell if someone is a FPS fanatic?


    WASD are their cleanest keys...The best way to play First Person Shooters is with a mouse. True or False?
    True. Since mouse is the best hardware for shooters. With special mouse like Razer mouse ya can adjust the sensitivity easily and mouse gives u......more reflex in taking down ppl in shooter games ^^ . Imagine a xbox360 gamer has a shooting match with a guy on PC with a mouse over on xbox live then no matter how gud the guy on xbox360 is he will still lose 10-0 to the PC guy with a mouse cuz he is just too fast for the xbox360 guy ^^ lolz. hope this help
    I could never get accustomed to using the mouse and keyboard, but I don't play a lot of computer games, mainly console games. I think it is whatever you accustomed to using. My boyfriend and I are comfortable with the controller, but I have many friends who far prefer the mouse/keyboard combo. If the mouse is that much better, maybe I need to get some practice in!
    I think it's about personal preference and I prefer a standard controller, the mouse probably gives you better accuracy though.
    True.


    it is the fasts and the best way to tune
    Definately prefer a mouse.





    I think a lot of PC gamers underrate controllers, the 360 controllers are quite nice and easy to play with (H3 + CoD4 being great examples of console's growing power in the FPS market).





    But i'd still take a mouse any day of the week, the point+click style is a lot more accurate, and out of gameplay, it makes menus and other selections a lot easier.

    Is it true or false that Homer's Illiad seems to glorify war without qualification?

    The Iliad Glorifies War. The idea that the Iliad is a 24 book celebration of war is an urban myth that indicates that many people have not read the book or seen the movie! Or worse they have not understood what they have seen or read :-) Alexander the Great was supposed to have carried a copy of the Iliad with him during his youth but I suspect not so much to learn battle strategy as to grapple with the problems that the Iliad poses: how does a man live when death can intervene at any time... what is important in life... what does it mean to be a hero... how does a man live when his fate is preordained? I have included a few quotes below to illustrate some of these points:





    1. ';Thetis answered (Achilles) then letting the tears fall: 'Ah me, / my child. Your birth was bitterness. Why did I raise you? / If only you could sit by your ships untroubled, not weeping, / since indeed your lifetime is to be short, of no length. / Now it has befallen that your life must be brief and bitter / beyond all men's.'; Iliad 1: 413-418.


    2. ';For I (Hector) know this thing well in my heart, and my mind knows it: / there will come a day when sacred Ilion shall perish / and Priam, and the people of Priam of the strong ash spear. / But it is not so much the pain to come of the Trojans / that troubles me, not even of Priam the king or Hekabe, / not the thought of my brothers who in their numbers and valour / shall drop in the dust under the hands of men who hate them, / as troubles me the thought of you, when some bronze-armoured / Achaian leads you off, taking away your day of liberty, / in tears....'; Iliad 6:447-456.


    3. ';Then in turn the shining son of Hippolochos answered: / 'High-hearted son of Tydeus, why ask of my generation? / As in the generation of leaves, so is that of humanity. / The wind scatters the leaves on the ground, but the live timber / burgeons with leaves again in the season of spring returning. / So one generation of men will grow while another / dies.'; Iliad 6:144-150.


    4. ';Son of Peleus (Achilles), I (Hector) will no longer run from you, as before this / I fled three times around the great city of Priam, and dared not / stand to your onfall. But now my spirit in turn has driven me / to stand and face you. I must take you now, or I must be taken.'; Iliad 22:250-253.Is it true or false that Homer's Illiad seems to glorify war without qualification?
    I completely disagree. It is about War, but there is so much more to it than that. It also concentrates on the drama between Achilles and the king, gods and humans, and fate. I didn't get any glorification from war, I got sadness because people lost their sons (and heroes from both sides) for nothing.

  • Is this true or false enslaved africans on plantations were treated fairly and paid well?

    Good answer Reg, Mamiankas is what would be expected from our current educational establishment.





    Your question is valid, and very thought provoking.





    I have been reading and listening to the interviews of former slaves.


    http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/index.html


    These are remarkable stories. You will get a true insight into what it was like to be a slave first hand from the slaves themselves.Is this true or false enslaved africans on plantations were treated fairly and paid well?
    Depends on who you ask. I personally cannot imagine slaves having any kind of comfortable life, that's why the term is ';slaves'; and not ';paid servants';. Slavery existed in all cultures in all races, and it doesn't look like it was a good thing.





    I had a history teacher say that based on logic, slaves had to have been treated well because they were an ';investment'; of the slaveowner and treating them right only increased their work output and work potential, while that makes sense, if slaves were thought of as less than human and disposable, and in come cases soul-less, why treat them well?





    Based on history after abolition - blacks couldn't vote, lynching, segregation - if slaves were treated well as slaves, wouldn't they have still been treated even BETTER as free men?





    Slavery existed and still exists - there's more evidence out there to support inhumane treatment than there is of humane treatment. Don't fall into the the mindset that ';if it was so long ago it couldn't have been that bad'; ignorance and denial isn't bliss in this case.Is this true or false enslaved africans on plantations were treated fairly and paid well?
    They were slaves. They weren't paid at all. Occasionally, they would receive a coin for some service, but they usually had no income at all, and were completely dependent on their owners for everything.





    As far as treatment is concerned, it ran the whole gamut from kindness to sadism. It depended on the owner.





    Regardless of how well they were treated, though, they were still enslaved, and that was totally wrong.

    Tulane and Loyola have a lack of students? True or False?

    I have read that Tulane and Loyola Universities student enrollment is still high and that 85-90% of students returned. Loyola is reporting that last spring was the highest rate of receiving applications ever, 22,000. All of this coming is from the admissions office, but it seems that this couldn't be possible after hurricane Katrina. From looking at Tulane's website it seems that they are a little desperate for students. Application has been extended and the price has been lowered. Are they really beack on their feet that quickly or are the schools trying to paint a rosy picture?Tulane and Loyola have a lack of students? True or False?

  • Christians: True or false? My past determines who I am and I cannot change?

    If you believe this, how is your life affected?Christians: True or false? My past determines who I am and I cannot change?
    False;


    My past may leave scars and battle wounds and thing for me to work out emotionally, but i am who i am today because Jesus has saved me from my past. If this was a true statement, then Paul would have not said that he counts all as loss for the ';excellence of the knowledge of Christ'; and that every day he forgets his past and presses on for Jesus. If we were not saved from our past sins then we would not be changed. a new heart is given to all those who call on the name of the Lord, therefore he is to go forth and sin no more, only God makes that possible because we all sin and daily we are renewed by the blood of the Lamb.Christians: True or false? My past determines who I am and I cannot change?
    I'd say true and false.





    It's true because your past does usually determine who you are - for better or for worse. I, for one, have had a very ugly past but instead of letting it mold me into a bitter creature doing the same wrong things repeatedly I looked to God and I looked deep into all I had done wrong and discovered the lessons out of it and it has made me who I am today and I'm very happy with who I am today and who I am constantly becoming.





    As far as changing - that's false. Even if your past has made you into something that's not good you can always look to God and Christ and they can heal everything within you and make it clean again. You can always be changed.



    If you believe the Scriptures, repent of your past sins, are baptised (that is immersed), then your past sins are blotted out.





    1 Corinthians 6


    9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,





    10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.





    11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.





    Mark 16


    15 And he (Jesus) said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.





    16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.



    In many instances this could be said to be True. We are a Product, the Sum, and Total of what has happened to us since Birth. There are many learned behaviors that we developed from our Parents, Teachers, Siblings, and Play Mates. These make us what we are Today, and the older we are, the deeper the imprint. Some never manage to change all the imprinting. Still, I do believe that we can, and do Change somewhat. It would be False to say categorically that we can not Change at all.

    FALSE= granted your past can affect how you view your life, however, if we are truly born again believers in Christ, He can change us into who He desires us to be. We can be transformed through Jesus.
    If that were true grace, mercy, %26amp; forgiveness would be meaningless. God's Holy Spirit enables me to change to become more %26amp; more like Christ. That is sanctification.
    False. God gave each of us free will, so although our past choices and experiences have a role in shaping us, we can always make different choices to affect who we are in the future.
    False, we always have the choice to change. I can't say my life is affected in any way other than the choices I make, moment to moment.

    Sex helps man reduce his extreme killer instinct. True or False?

    Without sex, over a longer period, the man becomes a beast and at the slightest provocation can kill another person. A woman's sexual organ is to relieve him of that basic killer instinct! My opinion!Sex helps man reduce his extreme killer instinct. True or False?
    trueSex helps man reduce his extreme killer instinct. True or False?
    No, that's quite incorrect.





    Men are not normally killers, anyone who does have a desire to kill others has a severe psychiatric disorder.





    Men do get more aggressive without relief of sexual tension, which is another reason why masturbation has benefits.

    The presence of electrons in a substance makes it a conductor of electricity.True or False?

    true :) electrons, electricity, see the pattern? haha, but that's not why it's true.The presence of electrons in a substance makes it a conductor of electricity.True or False?
    True. Just about any substance with a strong enough Voltage applied to it will pass at least a small amount of electrons.The presence of electrons in a substance makes it a conductor of electricity.True or False?
    False. Glass has electrons and is a pretty darn poor conductor. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_鈥?/a>
    False. Electrons are always present. What counts is their mobility.
    It is only half true.


    The correct answer is: A substance which contains FREE electrons is a conductor.


    An electron is free in a conductor if it can perform a continuous motion inside it, if we generate a potential difference between two points on its surface. In a given conductor that property of a free electron is characterised by its mobility, and the motion is called drift.
    False. They need free electrons for them to pass along to the next molicule, meaning an incomlplete number in the outer shell.
    False and the answers are total crap. Only when the electrons are promoted into the conduction band like in a metal or a doped semiconductor will an applied electric field make the electrons drift or flow as a current


    All 'substances' contain equal amounts of +/-ve electricity..in insulators these charge carriers are tightly bound to their parent atoms and so cannot particip8 in conduction


    The guy who does this stuff normally is off somwear..Ah usually only handle the religious hatred an abuse stuff
    False. Everything has electrons. The presence of any ions or a dissolved electrolyte will make it a conductor.





    EDIT:


    However, if it is meant that electrons are flowing through the object (not just contained within the atoms), then it does conduct electricity.

    Thank you so much for the help!The US Constitution gives the federal government the power to tax church services. True or false?...?
    Yes, churches can be taxed Constitutionally but by following certain guide lines they may be given a tax exempt status.


    Federal taxes are based on a scale that is nationwide. State income taxes may vary from the national base but can't go above that base.


    The sales tax is based on a percentage of which the maker suggests a price and the seller sets the price and may but seldom bears the tax.The US Constitution gives the federal government the power to tax church services. True or false?...?

    as long as they stay out of government affairs. That needs to change


    across the board because all the churches are preaching against


    this government policy and that policy to try and change votes.

    ';Monopolies always charge the highest possible price'; True, False or Uncertain?

    I think its false, but i can't explain why';Monopolies always charge the highest possible price'; True, False or Uncertain?
    Any premise with the word always in it is always false.

















    Think about that for a minute.';Monopolies always charge the highest possible price'; True, False or Uncertain?
    I think its true, there is no competition to fight with and if nobody else offers the product or service, they could pretty much charge whatever they darn well please.
    Monopolies are businesses where one person or a group of people own all or most of a certain product or land.





    Well, the word ';always'; is a hard word to deal with because almost never is something always. I don't know what terms your teacher is on and how far she is taking ';always';. However, I would have to say true, because monopolies usually control all of one product and therefore they have no competition and don't need to worry about competeting with another company about who sells the most. They have no competition and can therefore offer a price as high or as low as they want without worrying about losing business.The monopolies know that the people depend on their product and will have to buy it. So, if they make the price low (low enough so that the monopolies can have an income), they are just being nice to the people because they are getting a lower price. If they make the price really high, some people will not have enough money, but they will need it because no one else sells that certain product and will either have to save up for it or find a way to purchase that item. So now, with the prices very high, the monopolies are still getting their normal income because people need that product and have to buy it from them because there is nowhere else to buy it from, except the monopolies are getting even more money because they are overcharging. They are just getting more than enough money through an unfair process (it's unfair for the people who have a very low wage because it is very hard for them to afford it and they can't get it anywhere else). There is no point for them to charge a low price because then they get less money (still enough, but less than they could be getting) and are just more nice to the people by accepting that the people have a low wage and won't need to struggle that hard in order to purchase it. However, monopolies usually didn't think like that- it was usually about the money.





    So I think true.
    I think it would be true. If you're not competing, you can set your own price.
    I think it's false or uncertain, you can argue that although a monopoly doesn't have competition if it sets its prices too high it could have potential competiton, i.e. other companies would come along and offer the product more cheaply.


    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly
    I would say Uncertain. A monopoly just means that the industry or company operates without reasonable competition, and they ';monopolize'; the industry. It can be argued that they in effect charge high prices, but that is why we have laws against monopolies.

    False
    False; it was Polish neutrality.
    If you are referring to World War I, England entered the war when Germany violated Belgium's neutrality.
    False, England was ready to go before that even happened, they just needed a reason.
    Absolutely untrue. France had formerly signed with Poland a


    mutual assistance pact and was therefore obliged to enter into war after Nazi invasion. So Great Britain.
    true, england was ready for battle but did not want to join because they thought the french could hold back germany but once the french got defeated they knew england was next and entered the war.

    This is wrong. It's a true statement. Don't attach meaning to the equation because it makes it invalid to our background info. look at it like this: A always=B %26amp; B always=C; therefore A=C because the statement is an absolute; therefore, all of A's qualities are B's qualities.

    At the end I meant to say that all of A's qualities are C's.

    Report Abuse



    False.


    These aren't reversible statements, meaning you can have flops that aren't flips %26amp; blobs that aren't flops. So if all blobs aren't even flops, not all of them are going to flips either.

  • A molecule that contains two chiral carbon atoms may NOT be optically active? True or False?

    Can someone explain it to me also?A molecule that contains two chiral carbon atoms may NOT be optically active? True or False?
    True.





    In most cases, two chiral carbon atoms would make a compound optically active. The only case where it is not optically active is in a meso compound.





    In a meso compound, there is a plane of symmetry between the two chiral carbons. Essentially, one chiral carbon is a perfect mirror image of the other chiral carbon. This is why the compound is not optically active. One of the chiral carbons is bending the plane-polarized light X degrees in the positive direction. The other chiral carbon is a perfect mirror image, so it is bending the light X degrees in the negative (opposite) direction. The two chiral carbons then cancel each other out and the optical rotation is zero.

    Is the point of a first degree equation in general form to prove whether or not a value is true or false?

    or to solve for X ?





    don't understand the purpose of this type of equation , for example :


    5(x+2) - 15 = 0Is the point of a first degree equation in general form to prove whether or not a value is true or false?
    Typically, you'll want to simplify the expression to solve for the variable.





    In this case:


    5x + 10 - 15 = 0


    5x = 5


    x = 1

    True!True or false: Water absorbs Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere.?
    True. There is a complex relationship. Temp. The lower the more adsorbed, Pressure, the higher the more adsorbed. pH. the lower, the more is adsorbed. Some deep cold lakes which are volcanic have been known to give up their adsorbed CO2 when they get a sudden heating from volcanic sources. This is why distilled water is not a perfect 7pH. A few minutes exposure to normal air with some CO2 in it and it goes slightly lower in pH.

  • If all flips are flops and all flops are blobs, then all flips must be blobs. True or false?

    This question comes up in every IQ test. I seriously do not get it.If all flips are flops and all flops are blobs, then all flips must be blobs. True or false?
    False. Everything works better if you can input an example. This one is a crude rendering, but gets the jobs done.


    If all women(flips) are bisexual (flops) and all bisexuals (flops) are men (blobs), then all girls (flips) must be men (blobs).If all flips are flops and all flops are blobs, then all flips must be blobs. True or false?
    This is wrong. It's a true statement. Don't attach meaning to the equation because it makes it invalid to our background info. look at it like this: A always=B %26amp; B always=C; therefore A=C because the statement is an absolute; therefore, all of A's qualities are B's qualities.

    At the end I meant to say that all of A's qualities are C's.

    False.


    These aren't reversible statements, meaning you can have flops that aren't flips %26amp; blobs that aren't flops. So if all blobs aren't even flops, not all of them are going to flips either.





    Think about squares %26amp; rectangles.


    All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. It's the same principle.
    False- i saw a blob the other day beating the crap out of flip cuz he called him a flop ( apparently the flops dont pay thier child support ). So careful when your around them blobs cuz steriotyping can land you in serious heat... especially with the wamps.
    no, all the flops that are blobs may not be flips since all flops are not flips

    A molecule that contains two chiral carbon atoms may NOT be optically active? True or False?

    Can someone explain it to me also?A molecule that contains two chiral carbon atoms may NOT be optically active? True or False?
    True.





    In most cases, two chiral carbon atoms would make a compound optically active. The only case where it is not optically active is in a meso compound.





    In a meso compound, there is a plane of symmetry between the two chiral carbons. Essentially, one chiral carbon is a perfect mirror image of the other chiral carbon. This is why the compound is not optically active. One of the chiral carbons is bending the plane-polarized light X degrees in the positive direction. The other chiral carbon is a perfect mirror image, so it is bending the light X degrees in the negative (opposite) direction. The two chiral carbons then cancel each other out and the optical rotation is zero.

    Is the point of a first degree equation in general form to prove whether or not a value is true or false?

    or to solve for X ?





    don't understand the purpose of this type of equation , for example :


    5(x+2) - 15 = 0Is the point of a first degree equation in general form to prove whether or not a value is true or false?
    Typically, you'll want to simplify the expression to solve for the variable.





    In this case:


    5x + 10 - 15 = 0


    5x = 5


    x = 1

    True!True or false: Water absorbs Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere.?
    True. There is a complex relationship. Temp. The lower the more adsorbed, Pressure, the higher the more adsorbed. pH. the lower, the more is adsorbed. Some deep cold lakes which are volcanic have been known to give up their adsorbed CO2 when they get a sudden heating from volcanic sources. This is why distilled water is not a perfect 7pH. A few minutes exposure to normal air with some CO2 in it and it goes slightly lower in pH.
    True - resulting in carbonic acid (HCO3-)

    Could it be that you are questioning your sanity? Oh and False, it was totally beautifully created by God. It has been the free will he gave us and of our(the human race) own doing it is corrupt as it is. When we do what we are suppose to do it is great. Surely you know of a few good marriages that have longevity.

    True or False: The Bulls could still win 55+ games without Michael Jordan in the 1990's?

    No they can't win above 55, their record was at 55 which they actually did in 1993-94.





    But those games were wasted with their inability to pull the trigger under pressure... That was the difference with Jordan in therte that is why after one full season of retuning he once again guided them to the Finals and actually won. Making Phil Jackson smile on his fourth title as a coach.





    Even if you put the play-off wins in there the total for that Bulls team of 1993-94 would be only 60 wins as opposed to the championship winning 1992-93 Chicago Bulls with Jordan who won 72 games... a 12 win difference all-in-all, and those wins are the difference of champions.








    Hope this helps.True or False: The Bulls could still win 55+ games without Michael Jordan in the 1990's?
    I don't think you get what I said ... I said if Jordan had not been part of that organization, he would not have been able to take Pippen, Armstrong and Grant under his wing and make them better players ... they had their best years without Michael because there was slack that needed to be picked up

    Report Abuse


    True or False: The Bulls could still win 55+ games without Michael Jordan in the 1990's?
    True. The Jordan Rules book quotes Pippen as implying that you could substitute Jordan with any other consistent outside shooter and they could win. Maybe not win a championship but they would definitely win 55+ games.





    HEck, they won 55 games with Pete Myers replacing Jordan.





    I sincerely doubt that they could win a championship without him, though.
    By 55+ you're basically marking the Bulls as a near 60 win team without Michael Jordan ... that's a bit of a stretch, but I feel like you're testing the fans of the 90's NBA because in 1993-94, the year after Jordan first left the Bulls, Chicago won exactly 55 games .. the following year, the year Jordan returned in March, the Bulls won 47 games ...





    the Bulls could've been a 50 win team without him, but Jordan made that team into what they were ... he made a superstar out of Scottie Pippen and made role players like Horace Grant, B.J. Armstrong and Toni Kukoc all-star worthy ... Jordan was the best at getting the most from his teammates' potential ... so yes, the Bulls would be a good team without Jordan playing for them, but if Michael had just never been a part of the Bulls organization, the players he had around him wouldn't be nearly as good as they turned out to be





    If you're looking to justify the Bulls' greatness beyond the likes of Jordan, I'd look at Phil Jackson ... I hate him (I was a Knicks fan) but he's a phenomenal coach ... but if you're saying the Bulls would still be relevant in NBA lore in the 1990's without the drafting and seasoning of M.J., you're missing out on a lot of what Jordan meant to Chicago ... his impact on that team went so far beyond his statistics ... in fact, I feel privileged to have watched him play ... there will never be another Michael Jordan
    But did they win a championship? Your boy Alpha Wolf was on here a couple of weeks ago reminding us how the regular season is completely meaninlgess (rationalizing the Lakers' back to back losses). He was actually partially right. The regular season is important, but the true value of a player is demonstrated in the postseason. Ultimately, the Bulls couldn't get it done w/o Jordan.





    EDIT: You're right dude. I should take a good hard look at myself, and my Jordan jocker ways. I guess I could always spend my time trying to convince people MJ sucks. What do you call a person who does that?

    TRUE OR FALSE: power delivered by pump decreases in higher speeds ?

    and for what reasons ? please explainTRUE OR FALSE: power delivered by pump decreases in higher speeds ?
    Assuming conventional fluid such as water.


    Background: Increased flow will result in increased system frictional losses == increased system back pressure. If flow and system back pressure increase the required energy to move the liquid will increase.





    If a centrifugal pump (volute/impeller combination) increases in rotational speed the pump curve moves up and to the right with the required horsepower operating curves remaining in the original position on the pump curve. The new operating point will move up on the system curve (also up and to the right). Thus the input power will increase because the flow and/or system back pressure will increase.





    If a positive displacement pump increases in speed (whether a rotational PD or an air diaphragm pump with increased strokes), its flow will increase proportionally. The resulting input power will increase for the reason stated above.





    Both pump types FALSETRUE OR FALSE: power delivered by pump decreases in higher speeds ?
    I presume the pump has a working fluid like air or water. We are not talking vacuum pump. ok.





    yes. at higher specific speed the power delivered increases to a maximum, then decreases (this is not a linear function) beyond the maximum, issues like leak rate, cavitation and compressibility start to take over. also at high power levels, the pump material begins to be an issue.





    for instance, consider the turbo fuel pump of an Atlass IIe rocket. it must work at cryonic temperatures with a fluid (liquid hyrogen or oxygen) that cavitates easily. the maximum power delivered is that which pumps the fuel, but doesnot cause it to vaporize due to the input of power (energy).





    oh, and the bearings cant have grease so the specific speed needs to be compatible with stainless, bronze and some other fairly exotic steels.

    True or false: Bush's two wars, and record military spending has brought us temporary peace and prosperity.

    Capitalism thrives on any kind of spending.True or false: Bush's two wars, and record military spending has brought us temporary peace and prosperity.
    True and False.





    There certainly is some form of ';prosperity'; extant due to the massive U.S. tax dollars being spent in Iraq on reconstruction and domestically on defense spending. But, how is this good when you consider the fact that children today will spend the rest of their lives paying for this ';prosperity?';





    As for peace, remember, the U.S. WAS at peace prior to and after 09/11/01. Remember? The attacks on that date were not perpetrated by a nation, but rather, by criminals. The U.S. had the world at their feet after the attacks and we chose to squander that good will and destroy and subsequently occupy Iraq so the Bush administration could line their cronies pockets with trillions of U.S. tax dollars.





    Had the U.S. not captured and tried and executed Saddam Hussein, the U.S. would be no more at risk. Usama bin Laden is still at large. Remember him?





    Since GW Bush took control, Russia, North Korea, Iran, Venezuela, and even China to some degree have all gotten into instances of saber rattling with the U.S. which has resulted in heightened states of defense posture in regard to missiles and nuclear power.

    True or False: There are no savage and civilized peoples; there are only different cultures?

    Culture reflects the type of people who compose it. Culture isn't randomly bestowed, it's formed. Savage cultures should not be respected simply because they are a 'culture'True or False: There are no savage and civilized peoples; there are only different cultures?
    No, there are some cultures that I consider to be savage and I am not going to deny that and be politically correct about it. As a woman, I would not want to live in most Islamic countries. I consider them to be savage. Why are they savage? Is it their culture or their people? I don't know, and I don't care. Let them sort it out themselves. I am happy to live with civilized people, no matter their culture. I can not live amongst savages and pretend that they are not savage.True or False: There are no savage and civilized peoples; there are only different cultures?
    False.





    There are some cultural attributes that are different but not in a way that one is superior to another (for instance, France, Italy, Japan, and Thailand all have vastly different culinary cultures, but none is superior or inferior to another - people's tastes just acclimate to the ones with which they're familiar).





    However, a culture that practices science is better than a culture which puts superstition and magic in its place - the former is more able to understand and manipulate their world accurately. A culture with a feudal nobility system is inferior to a culture with a free market - because an economy that only expects some to contribute is not as powerful as one that expects all to contribute.





    So, while it's true that a culture can be different without being superior or inferior, it's also true that a culture can be different in a way that makes it superior or inferior to another.
    Mainly false. I think there are practices which should universally be considered savage and uncivilised. Any culture which promotes violence or treats certain groups of people inhumanely is uncivilised. There are basic rights and a standard of living that everyone should have.





    I suppose we can never really know who's right though... I mean, there will be people in other countries who think the number of abortions in Western countries is just as barbaric as we think forced marriage in their country is.
    Except in some cultures cannibalism and rape and murder are commonplace, right? It's silly to say a society where people live with indoor heating is equal to a society where people starve to death in mud huts.





    No. Some social models simply don't work, while others do. Cultures are not created equally just because people are.
    Our Nature temps us all with savagery. The measure of a civilization is how strongly it can resist those temptations. Modern feminists (and pretty much all ';progressives';) prefer to embrace our savagery while pretending to be sophisticated. They reduce society to a collection of gorillas in top hats.
    False.





    Savage is a term used to describe a particular culture. So, yes, it's a different culture. But that culture can be rather savage. I would say that if a culture is ruled by fear and power rather than standard laws... Then, it's savage.
    Well our definition of a civilized person would not be a savage person would it?


    Maybe the PC brigade have changed this meaning of the word ' civilized also without my knowledge.
    True.

I AM SURE THAT IS EXPERIENCE.
    FEDERAL HOUSING ENTERPRISE REGULATORY REFORM ACT OF 2005


    The United States Senate


    May 25, 2006


    Section 16 Record Text


    Sen. John McCain [R-AZ]: Mr. President, this week Fannie Mae's regulator reported that the company's quarterly reports of profit growth over the past few years were ';illusions deliberately and systematically created'; by the company's senior management, which resulted in a $10.6 billion accounting scandal.


    The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight's report goes on to say that Fannie Mae employees deliberately and intentionally manipulated financial reports to hit earnings targets in order to trigger bonuses for senior executives. In the case of Franklin Raines, Fannie Mae's former chief executive officer, OFHEO's report shows that over half of Mr. Raines' compensation for the 6 years through 2003 was directly tied to meeting earnings targets. The report of financial misconduct at Fannie Mae echoes the deeply troubling $5 billion profit restatement at Freddie Mac.


    The OFHEO report also states that Fannie Mae used its political power to lobby Congress in an effort to interfere with the regulator's examination of the company's accounting problems. This report comes some weeks after Freddie Mac paid a record $3.8 million fine in a settlement with the Federal Election Commission and restated lobbying disclosure reports from 2004 to 2005. These are entities that have demonstrated over and over again that they are deeply in need of reform.


    For years I have been concerned about the regulatory structure that governs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac--known as Government-sponsored entities or GSEs--and the sheer magnitude of these companies and the role they play in the housing market. OFHEO's report this week does nothing to ease these concerns. In fact, the report does quite the contrary. OFHEO's report solidifies my view that the GSEs need to be reformed without delay.


    Quick Info


    S. 190 [109th]: Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005


    Last Action: Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. Ordered to be reported with an amendment in the nature of a substitute favorably.


    Status: Dead


    I join as a cosponsor of the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, S. 190, to underscore my support for quick passage of GSE regulatory reform legislation. If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole.


    I urge my colleagues to support swift action on this GSE reform legislation.

    True, what Obama lacks in experience he makes up for in leadership, foresight and good judgment. McCain has had 30 years to learn from the mistakes of the past but yet he still wants to continue with the same failed economic and foreign policies that have all but destroyed this great nation.
    True! And for anyone that makes a Palin crack, once again keep in mind.. she's not the one running for president. She'll learn a lot in the first several months as VP. You people want Barack as your President...do you want HIM to be learning on the job, too???? Scary.
    False, the man lived in Indonesia, he can see the U.S. from the eyes of foreigners and from the eyes of the citizen. Something that John McSame and Northern Exposure will not and cannot do.
    I don't think he has any foreign policy experience. I don't see where he has economic experience either.
    False. He doesn't have any experience at all. ';Very limited'; is paying a compliment to him.
    true, unless u count rev. wright as foreign policy experience
    Yes, but I'd bet he would be a great community organizer. Whatever that is.
    True.





    But he did play basket ball overseas once.











    Country First, Not Last


    McCain/Palin '08
    Very true.





    McCain/Palin 2008
    Well, it's true, but he did campaign in Germany. That should count for something.
    Emphatically TRUE
    True, although he was raised in Indonesia
    True. But he knows how to organize a bake sale in Chicago if the Mob helps him.
    I would say this is True. But it is also True for BUSH AND MCCAIN...
    Very true.
    Very true!
    So very true.
    true...i would put Palin in same category...
    True.



    True.
    FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE!

    More than his competition.Smart enough to make better decisions when it matters most.

    True or False: Diversifying selection can eventually lead to speciation?

    True or False?:


    Diversifying selection can eventually lead to speciationTrue or False: Diversifying selection can eventually lead to speciation?
    True.





    Darwin's example was with finch beak sizes. He found that the birds with small beak sizes were able to eat the small seeds and the birds with big beak sizes were able to eat the big seeds, but the birds with medium beak sizes were too big to grab the small seeds and not strong enough for the big seeds.





    Now, what caused the birds to mate with one another was there location. The big beaks all hung out by the big seeds. The small beaks all hung out by the small seeds. Therefore they mated with one another. This slowly, very slowly, pushes out the medium beaks.





    Is this on track?True or False: Diversifying selection can eventually lead to speciation?
    False.





    Adaptation within species has been known throughout history but no hard evidence exists that one species changes into any other.





    Yes, of course it a popular and indeed mandatory element of the educational curriculum but fossil evidence of vestigial organs etc is


    purely speculative na creatures allegedly billions of year old are much the same today as then, right down to the finest detail.


    Finches are still finches not reptilian.
    I have heard it referred to as disruptive selection. In that case, the traits at the extreme ends of a bell curve distribution have a selective advantage. This leads to positive assortative mating, where organisms with similar traits reproduce with each other. This can lead to speciation. Thus, the answer is TRUE.
    Not sure exactly what you mean by 'diversifying selection'.





    But variation and selection do lead to speciation. For example lions and tigers ar different species, yet they can interbreed (producing ligers and tions).


    Lions and tigers (plus perhaps many or all of the other big cat species) share a common big cat ancestor.





    It is quite possible for this speciation to lead to species that can no longer interbreed, even though they share a common ancestor.





    Note that this is not evolution in the neo-darwinian molecules-to-man sense. The lion and tiger have *less* genetic information than their big cat ancestors. What we see is devolution. Evolution requires a massive net increase in genetic information. This is not observed. The proposed mechanism is mutations, yet all observed mutations are information neutral or lossy.
