By: bobbywise. on 15 Sep 08, 01:16:38
So the eyes send a signal to the larynx? And Then the larynx tells the brain what it was going to say? I thought that the eyes sends the signal to the brain first and then the brain interpets the image for a particular word and we think the word. If we don't want to say it, the brain nevers sends the signal to the speech center of the brain and thus never makes it to the larynx.

Ok guys chill. This guy is a very smart man, and clearly instead of seeing education as this impossible obstacle to over come. He manages to take such complicated manners that we encounter everyday in school, work, etc. And breaks it down to make it feel a simple task. It's a talent that not many teachers have....hats off to you!

By: mephatboi. on 22 Nov 07, 19:41:34
i hate how teachers misrepresent topics or tasks as easy to do when it's not developing a good thesis is a pain in the ass but it's like 80% of writing a good paper - u make it seem like it's automatic and can be done w/ little thinking (well, with your so-called thesis, it may be true) i am horrified by bu3antar's comment... if this piece of garbage actually helped him be a better teacher, i sure feel sorry for his students

By: mephatboi. on 22 Nov 07, 07:15:18
ur thesis sucks - if there is no controversy at all to ur argument: "PE is a positive thing in any community," then it's way too obvious and doesn't need to be argued in other words, YOUR THESIS HAS TO SAY SOMETHING -- u can't say something like, "Babies are cute" or "Michael Jordan is a great basketball player" and none of ur "assertions" contrast public ed with other alternative, if not inferior, modes of education (which is where I thought u were going, except MAYBE the first one)

By: PAUPERSTAR. on 21 Mar 08, 13:07:49
you have a lot of errors mate 1. the 'expression' cannot be solved because there is no equals sign in the expression (it should be: 3x^2-11x+15=0) 2. You haven't shown how to substitute a, b, c. The quadratic could be written in a different order.(say: -11x+15+3x^2=0)In this case, a is not the first coefficient, and b is not the second (like you said) etc. 3. 4*3*15 is not 120 - it's actually 180 4. This leaves you with -60, which cannot be square rooted 5. there are no solutions here.
