Rich people work really hard. True or false?

No doubt some rich people work hard, but nobody gets to be a millionaire purely through their own labours. They get to be filthy rich by exploiting others.





As the saying has it: The rich get rich through hard work - other people's hard work.Rich people work really hard. True or false?
It depends. I used to know some very wealthy farmers in California. They worked many 14 hour days to make money and they earned it. Now I know a number of self made wealthy people who worked for many years to get that way and have every right to be proud of what they have accomplished.





On the other hand, I know a few who inherited wealth and are pretty much lazy slobs. One woman I used to know felt that because she inherited her father's money, she was better than everybody else. In reality she was pretty sleazy and dishonest.





So, it all depends on the person and what they do. I'm a member of a service club where most the people are wealthy. They work very hard to earn their money, then work hard to help others less fortunate.Rich people work really hard. True or false?
Rich is a relative term, a lot of people think Americans are rich and lazy. Most ';rich'; people I have known worked for what they have.


Some won lottery's or sued someone.


I suppose the ones I hold in disdain are the people who were born on third base and think they hit a triple.
Depends on your definition of work. Rich people tend to use their brains rather than their backs to earn money. Some people wouldn't call that work, but those same people would have a really hard time trading places with the rich guy, despite what movies might show,
The ones who did not inherit their money usually worked hard to make what they have.





Some do not have to work as hard after they become rich as they did to become rich.





Really depends on the person and what they do I guess.
Depends on whether or not they actually earned it or inherited it. Of course in today's society all one really needs to do is pick their nose in a unique way. That leads to fame and fame to fortune. So I guess my answer would be no.


Have a nice day.
some of them do. some of them started out in poverty and worked very hard to become financially stable.
Some do and some don't. Same as some poor people work hard and some don't work at all.
I get so irritated with questions like these.





99% of people work hard for their money.





The other 1% are either Paris Hilton or the welfare queens that Republicans so love to rail against.
Some do, some don't work at all. Some worked hard to get the money and now don't work hard.
Yeah. I know I'd be super rich if I just worked as hard as Paris Hilton.
True. Unless they stole it. Or inherited. What was the question?
Some do, some don't. Same as everybody else.





Do you have a question about politics?
All the rich people I know worked incredibly hard to get that money.
present tense some do and some don't but at one time in there past they have that is why they have risen to fortune
Some do,but then you have your Al Sharpton's and Jesse Jackson's
False.
Some do. Many don't.
Depends on the job doesn't it'

Contact your local or state dental association and and see if there are any dentists who provide free or reduced cost care for low-income, disabled or senior patients.





Call your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.





Your local United Way may also be aware of such a clinic. In some areas, you can reach them now by dialing 2-1-1 for ';non-emergency information.';





Go to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.





If you are a senior citizen, call your local Area Agency on Aging or Office on Aging. If you can not find a listing in your local phone book on the ';County Government'; pages (usually marked with blue borders), call toll-free 1-800-677-1116 to find how to contact the Area Agency on Aging serving you.





Check http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.





Check http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose ';Find a Health Center'; to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.





Check http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a ';Donated Dental Services'; program. D.D.S. is designed to locate dentists who will give free care to patients who are financially compromised due to medical problems. This is a process that will take a couple of months to get your information and then arrange for someone to see you. Not all states have D.D.S. programs.





If worse comes to worse, check out http://www.prosper.com and see if you can find a funding source.I am tring to find help, assistant with dentist work for my mother parcel (false teeth) we are of low income.?

Yes, the problem with your form is that it doesn't follow the best practice of quoting all values for attributes.





Also, you are using the reserved word ';name'; as the name of an input field, change it to ';name1'; or some other variation so it's not evaluated as a reserved word.
try placing the value of the name attribute of the input field of the form in double quotes

    I work in a metal shop, lots of metal smoke & dust bondo fumes. Will this cause false + on drug test?

    To answer your question bluntly, no.

    ';Arbeit macht frei';...No it won't! Work never made anyone free. How do they justify this false statement?

    If anything, it only sends you to an early grave.';Arbeit macht frei';...No it won't! Work never made anyone free. How do they justify this false statement?
    Congratulations on selecting the statement which is the most difficult of all to defend! This difficulty, I would argue, stems purely from its historical associations because it was misappropriated by the Nazis.





    Work is very good at making us free from want, hunger, cold, oppression, and sickness. In fact, unless we are born extremely fortunate, it is indespensible for any kind of freedom. If we are warm, comfortable, and well-fed at the moment, it is because of the work we have put in, or - very importantly - that someone has put in on our behalf. Even in quietening the mind and developing a sense of generalised well-being, work is necessary; we have to fight to overcome our habitual tendencies.





    This slogan reminds me a bit of the swastika, and for more than the obvious reason. It is a good and wholesome thing perverted by Nazi misuse.';Arbeit macht frei';...No it won't! Work never made anyone free. How do they justify this false statement?
    Why is it false? So far ';work'; has provided me with money. And the more money I have, the more choices (aka freedom) I have regarding my life.





    I know there are some who obtain money without work, but for the vast majority of people, work is the best mechanism to obtain money, which provides choices, which is a key element of ';free';.
    Is it really necessary to justify something that the a German nationalist came up with and that was then adopted first by the Weimar government and then by Hitler and the Nazi Party? I think we can safely consign that phrase to the dustheap of history and move on.

    no you didnt work


    and they were investigating youI was suspended (without pay) from work on false allegations by my employer, then cleared. Do I get back-pay?
    First get a declaration from your employer containing all the details including the charges and the Resolution . Get some sworn statements from your co-workers on what there opinions of you were after the charges were laid.Collect any thing that might show how you were harmed by the false charges .Ask for back pay if you get it fine. If it were me I'd take the money and ask for a settlement (you lawyer would do this) because I couldn't work for these people any more.I was suspended (without pay) from work on false allegations by my employer, then cleared. Do I get back-pay?
    Probably you will not get back pay, but your employer is the only one who can tell you if you will or not. If you have vacation time or sick time they can pay it to cover the time you were off so you don't get behind on your bills, if the company policy allows it.





    Good Luck
    No, not unless you have an employment contract that says otherwise. This is because you didn't actually work during the time you were suspended.

    How does Catholicism teach a false gospel of works that leads to eternal hell ?

    This has been mentioned by one person in nearly every one of his answers, what does he mean by this?How does Catholicism teach a false gospel of works that leads to eternal hell ?
    Since Jesus began the Catholic Church and since he is the head of the Catholic Church, this person is basically saying that Jesus is leading us to eternal hell.





    Do you think Jesus would teach a false gospel that leads people into hell? It seems that would defeat his whole purpose of coming to save us from eternal damnation.





    The person who was saying this must really hate Jesus and his holy church. Perhaps one day his blindness will become sight and his hate will become love.





    God bless.How does Catholicism teach a false gospel of works that leads to eternal hell ?
    The person is confused about what the Catholic Church teaches. The teaching of the Church is that we are saved by grace and nothing else, and that all grace is through the Cross of Christ.





    Some protestants believe we are saved by faith. Catholics believe we are saved by grace.





    Works are necessary, to Catholics, but are in no way sufficient. No one can, by his own merits, gain heaven. So, the person is accusing the Church of teaching something it does not teach.
    The Catholic Church does not teach salvation by or a gospel of works


    The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that we are saved by grace through faith that works through Love (Gal 5:6)





    Chris and other antiCatholics who refuse to study the Catechism try to label all who do not teach that faith in isolation saves teaches a 'gospel of works';





    The Bible does not teach salvation by isolated faith alone


    Saving faith does not exist alone but is always accompanied by hope and love and commitment to staying in the state of grace
    He does seem almost desperate in his denunciations of the Church, doesn't he? That ';false gospel of works'; line seems to be what he clings to the most. Such a sustained vendetta -- he's been at this relentlessly for over two years now -- makes me wonder who he needs to forgive. That's usually what drives such blind and protracted anger.





    I continue to pray at least a decade of my daily Rosary for him as well as others (some of whom have graciously answered your question so that I can pray specifically for the name behind a particular avatar) who hate what they *think*, or want to think, the Church is.





    BTW -- he's posting as ';CJ'; again:


    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;…
    What he means by it is ';I don't have a clue what I'm talking about, so I'm going to spew forth whatever random thing I can think of.';








    He seems really....you know, so please don't think all protestants are like that! I'm not Catholic, but I have Catholic friends I love and wouldn't give up for the world.
    It doesn't, of course. But he has said it so often that he has convinced himself.





    What it does teach is exactly what the Bible says.





    What Our Lord demands is ``faith that worketh by charity .'' (Gal. 5 :6). Read Matthew 25:31-46, which describes the Last Judgment as being based on works of charity. The first and greatest commandment, as given by Our Lord Himself, is to love the Lord God with all one's heart, mind, soul, and strength; and the second great commandment is to love one's neighbor as oneself. (Mark 12:30-31). When the rich young man asked Our Lord what he must do to gain eternal life, Our Lord answered: ``Keep the commandments.'' (Matt. 19:17). Thus, although faith is the beginning, it is not the complete fulfillment of the will of God. Nowhere in the Bible is it written that faith alone justifies. When St. Paul wrote, ``For we account a man to be justified by faith, without the works of the law,'' he was referring to works peculiar to the old Jewish Law, and he cited circumcision as an example.


    The Catholic Church does not teach that purely human good works are meritorious for salvation; such works are not meritorious for salvation, according to her teaching. Only those good works performed when a person is in the state of grace--that is, as a branch drawing its spiritual life from the Vine which is Christ (John 15:4-6)--only these good deeds work toward our salvation, and they do so only by the grace of God and the merit of Jesus Christ. These good works, offered to God by a soul in the state of grace (i.e., free of mortal sin, with the Blessed Trinity dwelling in the soul), are thereby supernaturally meritorious because they share in the work and in the merits of Christ. Such supernatural good works will not only be rewarded by God, but are necessary for salvation.





    St. Paul shows how the neglect of certain good works will send even a Christian believer to damnation: ``But if any man have not care of his own, and especially of those of his house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.'' (1 Tim. 5:8). Our Lord tells us that if the Master (God) returns and finds His servant sinning, rather than performing works of obedience, He ``shall separate him, and shall appoint him his portion with unbelievers.'' (Luke 12:46).





    Furthermore, Catholics know they will be rewarded in Heaven for their good works. Our Lord Himself said: ``For the Son of man . . . will render to every man according to his works.'' (Matt. 16:27). ``And whosoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.'' (Matt. 10:42). Catholics believe, following the Apostle Paul, that ``every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labor.'' (1 Cor. 3:8). ``For God is not unjust, that he should forget your work, and the love which you have shown in his name, you who have ministered, and do minister to the saints.'' (Heb. 6:10). ``I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.'' (2 Tim. 4:7-8).





    Still, Catholics know that, strictly speaking, God never owes us anything. Even after obeying all God's commandments, we must still say: ``We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which we ought to do.'' (Luke 17:10). As St. Augustine (5th century) stated: ``All our good merits are wrought through grace, so that God, in crowning our merits, is crowning nothing but His gifts.''





    Had St. Paul meant that faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, he would not have written: ``. . . and if I should have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.'' (1 Cor. 13:2). If faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, the Apostle James would not have written: ``Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only'? . . . For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead.'' (James 2:24-26). Or: ``What shall it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but hath not works? Shall faith be able to save him?'' (James 2:14). If faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, the Apostle Peter would not have written: ``Wherefore, brethren, labor the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time. For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.'' (2 Peter 1:10-11). If faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, the primitive Christian Fathers would not have advocated good works in such powerful words. Wrote St. Irenaeus, one of the most illustrious of the primitive Christian Fathers: ``For what is the use of knowing

    they dont......hell is the grave....
    Catholicism teaches that the believer receives grace through the instruments of sacraments, and the hands of the priest. Salvation is contingent upon remaining in the fatih , and receiving the sacraments.





    That is juxtaposed to evangelical Christianity, where Jesus did all the work, procured our salvation, and we just have to believe him in faith.
    LOL it has the same chances of being wrong as your faith in your religion does. The truth of the matter is you won't really know for sure until you leave this world. So until then keep your mind open and don't be so quick to judge since your don't have all the answers either.
    Catholicism teaches that the work Jesus did on the cross was not enough and that you must earn your salvation thru work or by praying to mary to put in a good word for you. Sorry if this torks people off but the bible clearly states NO ONE is saved by works alone. Works are important yes, but they do not lead to salvation..period. Only Jesus does..praying to Mary will not get you there...eatng peice fo bread that is supposed to be considered the very flesh of Jesus is just plain blasphemous, disgusting and will not get you to heaven. The prayer beads or rosary, will not get you heaven. See where this going?? Most of the catholic teaching is idolatry and pagan worship wrapped up in the christian brand. The church is a wolf among sheep and very dangerous
    In Greece and Rome, before Christianity, the chief god was Jupiter and his son was Apollo. After Christianity came, the chief god became God and His son became Jesus.





    In Rome, Sunday was the day designated for the worship of the sun god Apollo, the son of the chief god, Jupiter. However, after Christianity came, Sunday became designated for the worship of Jesus, ';son of God';.





    The 25th of December was the Roman festival marking the ';birthday of the unconquered sun'; (Apollo) ';Natalis solis invicti';. However, after Christianity came, the 25th of December marked the birthday of Jesus, ';God's son';.

    Firefighters claim smell senses don't work while asleep; the reason for smoke detectors. True or false?

    False -- Your brain and nerves never shut off.





    Stop - right now - can you feel your left foot touch the floor?





    Well now that I've pointed it out, you can, but I bet you didn't notice it before. Your brain receives lots and lots of input every second from nerves all over you body, including sight, sound and smell. You have filters or gates that screen out those that aren't important right now. But you can selectively pay attention to them.





    These filters get tighter as you sleep, the deeper into sleep you go. Drugs, alcohol and extreme fatigue make it even harder to notice sensations in sleep. Everyone sets these differently





    So a quiet alarm wakes me up, so does my pager - the neighbors screaming kid doesn't. The kid wakes my wife but my pager doesn't. When she is really tired, even the kid doesn't.





    Smells are not usually seen as a threat to our brain so yes, your smell senses work, yes they get to the brain, but no, they don't wake you up usually.





    Maybe if it is chocolate cake, or if you are really hungry...Firefighters claim smell senses don't work while asleep; the reason for smoke detectors. True or false?
    I'm saying false. I can smell in my sleep. For instance when I set my bread machine to bake for fresh bread in the morning I wake up smelling it cook, also had a fire a couple houses down and woke up to the smell.





    Very close friends are firefighters and have never heard this claim. Smoke detectors usually pick up the faintest type of smoke before it fills the house, thus warning people before it's to late.Firefighters claim smell senses don't work while asleep; the reason for smoke detectors. True or false?
    False.
    True! According to a report of Brown University,sounds will usually disturb sleep,but scents not. In deeper sleep levels no one can smell pyridine(the scents of fire).


    Why is true?The study suggests a ''significant alteration of perceptual as a function of sleep'' Olfactory perception,or the sense of smell appears to be practically nonexistent during deep sleep.
    wow interesting, I guess they might be right as I don't smell anything once I'm sleep. or wait a minute I do wake up when I smell nice food. I'm confused :0)
    I don't know about making the claim, but of the five senses, the sense of smell is the last sense to ';wake up';. This is why so many people who don't have smoke detectors, or don't properly maintain them succumb to smoke inhalation in a structure fire.
    False.





    Also, I have never heard a firefighter claim this.





    A smoke detector in the right place can detect a fire before a sleeping person because smoke rises with heat and detection at ceiling level can happen much sooner than smoke that is so thick it is down to the level of a sleeping person.





    A sleeping person will take much longer to react to outside stimulus like the smell of smoke than a smoke detector.
    that not true. But you could be very sound asleep and not wake up if you didn't have the smoke detectors.

  • Minds dont work until theyre opened True or False?

    Umm false. Minds work all the time - the issue is whether it is working correctly or not.





    The just cracking the door open is still opened but its only a slight step toward full correct use of the mind. One has to open the door all the way.Minds dont work until theyre opened True or False?
    False.





    I think you're confusing a necessary condition with a sufficient one. Most minds do need to be at least a little open (to discussion, debate, or evidence) in order to work well, but meeting the *need* is no guarantee the mind will work well.





    People don't have to make sense. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink it. You can present all the neat arguments in the world, physical evidence by the ton, and yet....if a mind is only open to *some* things the person will refuse to be convinced, persuaded, or to even *consider* that your point of view is right.





    It's like this. People by and large *cannot* be completely close-minded to science and technology and still use the internet. That is just a given, wouldn't you agree? You have to believe in, or understand, the idea that electricity and telephones and electronic computing, that all of these things are *good things*. I'm not talking necessarily about *understanding* these things: I am talking about accepting them as a part of a modern lifestyle. There has to be some openness to the technology at least, and the working science that backs it up, in order to have any willingness to use it.





    It's on a par with needing to know how to *read* to really understand the worth of a library. Wouldn't you agree? It's a basic, minimum sort of requirement.





    And yet....we get people, just on Yahoo Answers, *every day* from all corners of the planet, who steadfastly *refuse* to believe in the correctness of the Scientific Method, the *same one* that proves that computing works and that electricity works and that *telephones and dial-up modems* are possible mind you, they refuse to consider that Science might be *true as well* when it comes to a) natural selection, b) the origins of mankind, and c) the origins of the Earth and life upon it.





    It's a case of a mind being a *very little* bit open, but only in a very narrow and selective sense. The openness is there, it is *necessary* for the person to *function*, but it isn't *sufficient* to get that person, once on the internet (or anywhere else), to actually *think* and consider other points of view as valid.





    I hope this helps, and thanks for your time! ^_^Minds dont work until theyre opened True or False?
    Minds open by learning (watch a child). They stop learning when they're closed (look at fundamentalists of any kind). So then they stop working, and merely repeat learned tricks. Sad, but common.
    False... Some of the hardest working people I know are closed minded. Look at Jerry Falwell.

    Is presenting a false SS# to get work the same as presenting false information to start a war?

    if you read HJ 114 EH Section 3, paragraph B, Bush was required to prove to the Congress that Iraq was in violation of UN Resolutions by still being in possession of weapons of mass destruction, and secondly, that Iraq was behind 9-11. Both claims have since been disproved and discredited.

    I often wonder where you liberals come up with this crap. Every frigging day its another trumped up bullcrap story. Give us all a break, give it up.
    The end result is the same. The terrorists are able to hide in Sanctuary Cities, work as Pizza Delivery people to get access to our bases, and even work on our bases and at our airports and in our ports and other areas where sensitive information is store -- as in cleaning companies in U.S. Government offices. One of the Fort Dix Six was a pizza delivery person whose whole attitude was to kill American Soldiers and he even tried to become a Philadelphia Cop to get a badge to do it. He was given a waiver for the one year residency and also a waiver of the application fee. Talk about preferential treatment for terrorists-- man do we need to get smart or what?





    Also in the paper today, Islamic people were interviewed and U.S. islamists in the USA particularly under the age of 30 felt that some use of suicide bombing is justified. And we are letting these people into the country. Children learn what they live and children of illegal aliens are learning to inflict damage upon U.S. Citizens. In Chicago, Illinois 20 students were killed in this school year most of them gang related and while we don't know whether they were illegal aliens or not, the Hispanic and Latino gangs are growing exponentially in the area. When will they every learn?
    Quite clearly an illegal immigrant is lying to work.... that is a heroic act.





    Bush lied all his life, even to get to war. The man has never worked. He is a waste of water.

    Christians claim other peoples religions are the work of satan and false prophets?

    but when they are told an opinion different to their own i.e. Jesus was a false prophet, a liar, and saved no one.


    they get rather agitated.





    So christians, can you see what it is like when you condem people to hell, call their religion the work of the devil etc. IT IS NOT NICE IS IT?Christians claim other peoples religions are the work of satan and false prophets?
    There are lots of misguided people in the world. Jesus can find them and touch their hearts, but He will do no more. We have to make the choice. It is sad that people are rude. Satan need not start false religions. In our arrogance, we are very capable ourselves.





    But they will go to Hell. Make no mistake about that.Christians claim other peoples religions are the work of satan and false prophets?
    I always wondered why the fact that most religions claim to be ';the one TRUE religion'; and their holy book is the infallible word of God, doesn't make people think twice about their own belief. How is it that a person can ';know for a fact'; they are right and someone with an opposite view can also ';know'; they're right when neither one of them can present even the smallest shred of evidence? How can anyone possibly decide who's right or if anyone at all is right?





    It seems to me that religion is a convenient excuse for hateful people to fight each other and discriminate against others, even though their reasons essentially amount to nothing. A lot of people LOVE to HATE and will latch on to any reason to do so.
    I don鈥檛 see why Some Christians should feel that way. We all pray to the same God. For e.g. in Hinduism (probably the oldest religion in the world), the most true name for God is Om. In the Bible it is said that in the beginning was the word and the word was God. Scientists have affirmed that the first sound to come out of creation was Om. Many Christians don鈥檛 know about the Aquarian Gospel. Many of them will deny this because they don鈥檛 know but it is true! In the missing days of Christ he went to India where he was taught Vedic Philosophy by Lomas Rishi and Agashtha Muni (Not sure if the spelling is right). When he returned and started to preach this philosophy, he was crucified. The Aquarian Gospel does exist. Once on a vacation in Barbados my dad went into a store owned by a Rastafarian man. He saw the Aquarian Gospel on sale but was not able to buy it because he did not go with enough money. The Rig Veda says that God is one but is called by different names. Therefore anyone can experience God, not only Christians.
    I very much agree with you. Each religion is going to say that theirs is the right one, and God commands us not to judge. So I don't know what their problem is... By the way, when you said ';christians,'; you included everyone. There are exceptions to your rule.
    i'm so sick of people telling me i'm going to hell. i'm like, f you dude, i dont believe in hell. and you have no right to tell me i'm wrong and you're right. thats just judging me and according to the religion you're trying to force down my throat, you dont have that right to judge so you should be going to hell too.





    i hate religion. it should only be allowed in moderation.
    funny ,but most people react that way no matter what the belief,seems everyone wants you to believe their way only,read some other questions and see its not just Christians reacting this way
    They all believe they are the only true faith, it's not surprising, why else would they be there?
    It is pretty funny, most of the religions they claim to be ';satan's'; work was created before their own religion. Gee, satan didn't even exist back then LOL! If they just took the time to do some research on other religions they would keep their mouths shut and appreciate life for what it really is and not for what they want it to be.
    gee we got anuther idiot here and dume to
    It is not nice to fool us, YOU ARE GOING TO HELL!!, even if your religion is pagan, YOU ARE GOING TO HELL!!!, that does mean that you are worshiping the, YOU ARE GOING TO HELL!!!, correct God.
    True Christians do no such thing! They merely express that the MOTIVATION for such reasoning is demonically charged. God condems them to Hell, not people! It is our charge as Christians to present the knowledge of the truth in a manner that reflects God's love AND His wrath. Once again, you're generalizing because of the views of the ';bad apples'; that spoil the whole barrel!
    Real christains do not condem.Christain stands for christ like and christ as it says in the bible chist did not come to condem the world but to save it.So if some one comes up to you saying that your religon is of the devil or your going to hell tell them they need to worry about there self cause christain don't go around throwing stones!

    False positive blood work?!?!?

    Ok, so in June i tested positive for syphillis, and after retaking the test it showed that i didnt have it. I recently donated blood a week ago and i got a letter back saying that my blood is positive for syphillis. I have never done ANYTHING that would get me syphillis, do u know what would cause this false positive????False positive blood work?!?!?
    If your blood test is positive for syphilis - and you don't get one - it can mean the you've got special antibodies in your blood, which are similar to the antibodies again the syphilis. The antibodies are part of the human protective system, they are for find and kill the foreign things, e.g. the bacteria that causes syphilis in your body. In the blood test it's searched for these antibodies, and it is positive if you've ever meet the bacterium. OR it can be a kind of mistake of your immune system, when an antibody - which is similar to the one against the syphilis- is product against one part of your own body. So they're called auto-antibody. In most cases these antibodies don't have any significance, but they can also be the sign of an autoimmune disease e.g. SLE (lupus), maybe you've heard about it. You should see an immunologist who can help you find the reason of the positive test.False positive blood work?!?!?
    clinics usually us a vdrl test which is only a screening test and false positives are relatively common. if it comes back positive they should do an fta test which actually tests for the presence of the bacteria that causes syphilis. if that comes back positive it clinches it.

    Whoever said false positives are not possible is ignorant. False positives for syphilis are very common. Talk to your doctor. They will be able to tell you for sure what is going on. Remember, its not likely but syphilis sores can occur in the mouth and can be passed through kissing.

    AND CALL THE PLACE YOU DONATED BLOOD TO ANDLET THEM KNOW

    Are the following statements ';true'; or ';false'; and please..show your work?

    Obama wants to replace the ';risk'; and ';reward'; free enterprise sytem by allowing Govt to become involved in the Private Sector and control Corporations.





    If False, then why is he getting GOVT involved in everything he can?


    If true, is that the Patrotic American way?


    So are Obama and his supporters Real Patriots?Are the following statements ';true'; or ';false'; and please..show your work?
    TRUE.......and no it is NOT the ';patriotic American way';, as defined in our Constitution.


    So......no, Obama cannot be considered a patriot as per the laws OF the Constitution.


    As far as the Obama supporters, I think we have two groups here. I believe some of them ARE patriots who just don't have a clue as to what Obama is trying to achieve with his socialist agenda's because they watch CNN, NBC, ABC and CBS for their news sources. The rest of his supporters ARE Socialists who want complete government control of the private sector. The admitted socialists and communists in his administration are examples/proof of his socialist tendencies. There are people in the Obama administration who absolutely despise the United States of America....don't forget that.





    Although I don't disagree with Evan's answer entirely......he is still one of the FIRST group I described.Are the following statements ';true'; or ';false'; and please..show your work?
    False. Liberals, including Obama, don't want total government control of the private sector. Everyone knows that the private sector has a way of achieving much higher efficiency than the public sector, due to incentive.


    Yet you have to regulate companies so that they don't become too powerful. What makes the private sector work is competition, so that the best product is made, at a low, competitive price. Yet without regulation, rival companies often quash competition, which helps the company, but hurts the overall country.


    Bush and Reagan de-regulated a lot, too much arguably. The reason the 2008 financial crisis happend was because of a repeal of a law in 2001 that banned the practices financial firms ended up doing. The exact same thing happened in 1907, and from 1908 until 2001, it was illegal to do it.


    All that Obama wants to do is swing the balance more towards regulation. He probably will go a bit too far with it, but then again, nothing in America is every permanently balanced.





    Bottom line, Obama is doing this for the good of America's economy, and thus, America's people. If that isn't patriotic, I don't know what is.
    Your question is incorrect and fails on innumerable levels.


    Here are your errors:


    There is no such thing as the ';risk'; and ';reward'; free enterprise system.


    Even if there were, risk and reward would not be asterisked.


    Free enterprise has not existed since 1886 in any form in the United States.


    President Obama does not allow Govt to be involved, nor should the abbreviation for government be capitalized. The President makes policy decisions and suggestions for Congress and the Senate to act upon.


    Similarly, Private Sector and Corporations should not be capitalized. Again, the President has no influence on the ownership of corporations, only stockholders or their proxies can determine ownership.


    Since your hypothesis is incorrect, your question is nonsensical.

    Yeah, contact the police or a private investigator first to get confirmation. If that is what he's doing, he's trying to circumvent the court ordered child support and can be arrested. Additionally, the use of a fake name is fraud which is a felony, and I'm sure the IRS would be interested since he wouldn't be claiming the $ for taxes.How do I report someone who's working under a false name?
    Contact your case worker.
    He can use a false name, but it's a federal offense to use a false SSN. You can either contact his employer - who has a duty to report this - or contact the social security administration.

  • If there is no good there would be no bad... right /wrong..True/false. Does this work for Atheists /believers

    Hello dear!


    In order for leaders to maintain their posts, power, etc., they introduce gods, religions, good and bad and so on.


    When we think, not just follow the orders by the leaders, we understand that there is no good and bad, right and wrong, up and down, they are all inventions to enable some to govern!


    Of course the believers are the ones who have kneelled and insist to remain that position, thus ';know'; only what they have been asked to believe.


    If the Atheists are thinking and not agnostics, then they do the prompt because there is no other way!If there is no good there would be no bad... right /wrong..True/false. Does this work for Atheists /believers
    How would we know evil without knowing good.





    If every meal your wife cooked was bland and tasteless would you know the joy and pleasure of a good, flavorful meal?If there is no good there would be no bad... right /wrong..True/false. Does this work for Atheists /believers
    Good and bad are human ideas. Everything that exists, just is. Our interpretation of things judges them to be evil or good.
    sure. if there were no believers, there would no non-believers (atheists).
    I think without a God there ultimately wouldn't be a distinction between bad and good. Attempts to reinforce ahteistic morality have so far seemed to me to only provide diminishing returns in terms of justification the more it is debated. Especially with the survival of the fittest concept.
    Yes, everything is subjective so you cannot tell if an experience is good or bad without other experiences to judge it by.
    When there is no right or wrong, there is no concept, and when there is no concept, there is no one to proclaim anything.

    Why are so many people confused about illegal immigrants working with a false social security number?

    Its not a stollen identity. If it was don't you think most of them would be caught and deported by now.They would rather stay under the radar. A stollen identity would be a stupid act. Its a false number provided by people doing illegal business in the Social Security Administration. And some of them do file taxes with the fasle number. The Social Security Administration works independantly from Immigration Services.Why are so many people confused about illegal immigrants working with a false social security number?
    That is simply not always true. Go on the Internet and check mainstream news stories, since I am sure you won't believe me.





    Some numbers are made up. However, the more expensive ones are either obtained from the Social Security office (they caught a few guys that just left some intentionally unassigned) or are stolen from babies or other real people who aren't expected to be using their number in the near future making it unlikely they would get caught. When those kids grow up, if the illegal has used the number for loans and defaulted, etc., the kids credit is already ruined. They may eventually straighten it out, but I have had a number of friends who were victims of identity theft and it takes years and continual effort and great expense to even mostly patch up your credit.





    This is why I am so incensed about the idea that illegals if legalized would get credit for social security payments made into a victim's account.Why are so many people confused about illegal immigrants working with a false social security number?
    Please don't get the wrong idea though. I know it is still a criminal offense any which why you put it, but my point is that illegal aliens are not the only problem we have. In life people go as far as you let them. I hope you understand what I am trying to say.

    Illegal aliens are not the only problem and at least one of the identity theives was a home bred thief.

    Regardless of whether the number was stolen from someone else or just made up or given to them by a criminal working in the SS department or purchased from an illegal ID dealer - regardless, when they use these numbers, it is a federal crime and they should be charged and prosecuted and deported. I don't feel sorry for them that their employers deduct taxes from their pay that they then cannot receive back because they can't file a tax claim - too bad! For the most part, even when they do use a fake SSN, they claim so many dependents (also usually lying) that they don't get a fair amount of taxes deducted, anyways. No, I don't feel sorry for them, no way!
    Sorry to burst your safety bubble but it is a stolen identity. In some cases they take the names of children who died young by getting their birth certs and creating an identity for themselves. When some problem occurs they disappear and when the police trace the dead childs family it brings added grief to them as they have to go through the motions of proving their child had died.
    Of course some of the illegals use stolen social security numbers. People have had their social security numbers and identities stolen by these illegals. Some may make the numbers up, but that's still a crime. They are not prosecuted for this the same reason why the government looks the other way and wants to give the illegals amnesty, because it suits their agendas.
    Simple question, simple answer. A lot of people just believe what they want to believe, they hear something they like from some random person (unreliable source) and they stick to that as if it were true. Some people love to leave in fear and ignorance.
    I personally know some illegals and know that they make up their social security number (they dont steal real or valid ones) or they use a tax id number to work and file taxes. I actually know someone who did have a social he later found out belonged to a man that died in the 1930's.
    I think mexico needs to go home. Identity theft, whatever theft, it's theft, they need to get out of our country. Period. America's played host to this bleeding-heart crap for too long. It needs to stop. A great way to do that would be to start deporting people for committing crimes in the United States. As in, you screw up, you're leaving. Pretty simple, really...
    Maybe beacuse they do not know as much as you do?

    False Analogy Home work HELP!!!!!!!!?

    i need a false analogy about cellphones....





    Analogy: Draws an invalid conclusion from a comparison that is weak or unreasonable.False Analogy Home work HELP!!!!!!!!?
    Try this:





    His cellphone connected to the internet at the speed of light.





    Why it's a false analogy: Cellphones connect to the internet by using a radio frequency, not light waves. Therefore the conclusion that it connected at the speed of light is false.

    If McCain wins, your kids may have no other choice, except to go on welfare. True.True or false? Tell my kids to work if McCain wins,go on welfare if Obama wins?
    Well, you can tell them to go to work if McCain wins, but since he is admittedly ignorant about the economy and will continue Bush's policies, there probably won't be any jobs for them.
    False - the pretence that almost anyone will be better of not working than working is ludicrous.


    If your kids really are tht close to the poverty line they should be happy Obama supports a living minimum wage.
    Tell your kids to prepare for an all out draft and spend their time getting killed in needless wars if McCain wins.





    Tell your kids to prepare for college is Obama wins.
    Eclectic is right, except that he left out that McCain would drain the economy and there wouldn't be any surplus of jobs to be had.
    Wrong. McCain will have a draft for our future generations, while Obama wil raise taxes, and Hillary will bankrupt the country. I know Ron Paul would be a better alternative than the rest of the three. He is very fiscal, and very pro-American to follow advice of the Constitution, where you have welfare, no more taxes, no corporate socialism, no wars, protected borders, and more peace. Seriously. Take care.

    Tell your kids to work hard despite government intervention into their affairs. Nothing can stop them from winning in life, and least of all a government that would seize some (even most) of what he gained. Teach him or her that nobody - nobody - has charge over them, and they will win no matter what presidents or congress does. He (or she) will then be complete. Don't make excuses for failure, and there will be no reason to do so.

    Since dental work is so costly is considering false teeth a good option?

    The best answer I have ever seen is on the website I posted below. I have implants upper and lower that hold a whole piece bridge unit and even though my smile is pretty and the teeth stable there is nothing like the feel of ones own natural teeth. With implants I also get more sinus pain when I have a cold.





    Truth is dental issues are expensive. As for eating in restaurants with dentures you can. But many have to result in gluing them in with things like fixodent because dentures especially the lowers do not like to stay seated.Since dental work is so costly is considering false teeth a good option?
    as the dental profession nothing could replace your own teeth. with denture ,partial or other prosthetic you will not be happy.if you could preserve any of the with the mean of rootcanel, crown, filing, implant you should with all mean do it,even though its $ do one teeth at a time ,you will not regret this. their is a dental credit card you could apply for its called Care credit its a no interest c/c for 6-12 month and offers good option to pay back. its available in Los angeles CA try your area.Since dental work is so costly is considering false teeth a good option?
    Only in rare circumstances would I advise someone to extract their teeth and have dentures made. Its nearly impossible to replace teeth, gum tissue, and bone with plastic and acylic. Yet that is what we try to do when we make dentures. For some people who have very poor oral hygiene and teeth that are constantly hurting, this may be the only option. It is also important to understand how dentures work. They stay in place due to suction. It is next to impossible to get suction on the lower denture due to the tongue. I would suggest to try to save as many teeth as possible. Although the dentistry is expensive, it is far better to save teeth than extact and replace with dentures.
    yes and no. No because if you can keep your own teeth that's more than worth the money, sometimes people can't afford root canals and crowns so they opt to pull the tooth, a false tooth or bridge is never the same as your own tooth so if you can save a tooth it's worth it. On the other hand, if it's a bad tooth and a root canal won't work, I would recommend the false tooth or bridge to fill in the space, they cost alot too. In all honesty, either way root canal/crown or bridge/false teeth, they all are expensive.





    The best thing to do is get regular cleanings and make sure if you have a cavity you get it fixed immediately to save your teeth and the cost of expensive repairs later.
    Find out all you can about false teeth. For example:





    If you have lower dentures, your mandibular bone will receed and your face will appear sunken and old. Your lower denture will have to be re-done periodically because it won't fit for long. You can't eat in a restaurant with friends, for one thing.





    The gums below your dentures will likely develop sores and give you pain. You will give up some of the foods you enjoy because you simply cannot chew properly.





    Your speech will be affected. If dentures are improperly fitted, loose dentures will result in ';fuzzy'; speech patterns, making you sound like that old man on Family Guy.





    Your breath might smell bad. Forget dating.








    Does it sound so costly now? A few dollars to avoid a lifetime of embarrassment and discomfort?
    believe me, its not as simple as that. alot of people think that if they dont have their teeth looked after they can just get false teeth, but there is alot going on in your mouth. oral health affects everyday health so just letting teeth go could do alot of damage to you. you would have to let your teeth rot and fall out which is giving yourself periodontal disease and false teeth still need maintenance to keep then looking good and clean and fitting properly and your gums still need to be looked after. I dont suggest it...take care of your own teeth.
    It really depends on your current situation. If you have more teeth than not any dentist will try to save what you have. I broke my jaw when i was 13 and i have lost almost all of my top teeth. I have some dental implants, but mostly for cosmetic reasons. I am at the same cross road that you are at. It really comes down to you. I HATE the look of dentures, I am currently Turing to save enough money for dental implants, which is also another alternative. The cheapest place for dental work is in Grove Oklahoma. I have heard that a complete set is under $300. You could also look into that. I hope this helps you.

  • Is it possible to build working models on false theories?

    Technology we have in our day to day lives are built around tested and verified scientific theories.


    Is it possible for technology that can exist on falsified theories.Is it possible to build working models on false theories?
    Of course it is, but the reason we build prototypes is to test to see if the theories are true and if we employed them correctly.





    For instance, the primatives built working planetary models based on the incorrect theory of spheres that nonetheless could predict eclipses.Is it possible to build working models on false theories?
    If the model works then the theory is good.


    The purpose of the theory is to allow us to make accurate predictions. If we have two completely different theories that give the same predictions, then we have a way (Occams razor) of deciding which to use, but we don't say either one is 'wrong.'


    Think of theories in terms of 'more and less useful' instead of 'right and wrong.'


    We can have a theory that gives accurate predictions for everything we can test, and then later find a new way of testing it that it now fails. The common way of talking about it would say that we've found the theory to be wrong but a more accurate way of looking at it is that we've found it to be less useful, or found a condition in which it's not useful. We found Newtonian mechanics to give false predictions at speeds close to the speed of light, but rather than saying it's wrong we just say it's not the tool to use for that situation. You need a different tool (relativity) to deal with those conditions.





    In the example from the previous poster, the planetary spheres model is still useful if you want to predict eclipses. Not so much if you want to launch a space probe. We've dropped that one altogether because we have new theories that are just as easy to work with for eclipses and also work for space probes, but the point is the theory still works in the right context.

    Is the law of attraction true or false? does work in your life?

    could you tell me your experience? if you have used it tell me how do you do it? I want to learn to use this because I am suffering anxiety since I was a child and all this anxiety became deeper with my came out before that I always felt and I still feeling anxiety well I am a gay and I live in mexico, I know one part of me doesn't like this and one part of this yes, it's like I want to be acceptable by friends and relatives.. I live in a small town and I have been with 2 psychologists and one psychiatric who is giving me medications.. my medication is efexor 150mg but I have tried several medications but it didn't work until today efexor still without any result in my life.. well I don't kno what to do and someone told me about this law but I can't understand how does work in your life? can it help me with my anxiety? I hope your answers and sorry for my bad grammar, I am learning english.Is the law of attraction true or false? does work in your life?
    You are acceptable. Completely acceptable. Being gay is a perfectly natural thing. Studies have shown that there are even gay seagulls, so it's not just humans who are gay. It's just part of nature.





    Second, it makes sense that you might be feeling anxious about coming out. Trust me though, the anxiety will go away as you become more comfortable with yourself.





    If efexor is not working let you doctor know and try something else. Keep going to talk therapy. Surround yourself with people who are OK with you being gay.Is the law of attraction true or false? does work in your life?
    Hey man, just relax ! There is such a thing as attraction, but it occurs only to those who are relaxed enough to see it ! You seem to be too tense, that's why your life tends to escape from you ! It doesn't matter who you are or what you do, what matters is: life is short and you should take it the way it is. Trying to change things by force will only scare, frustrate you and make you more unhappy ! I suggest you to forget the pills and rearrange your pattern of thinking the way it suits you, that is: try to be calm, focused on things at hand, don't think too much ahead contemplating the future that might never come ! Don't linger on what had gone wrong ! It happened and you can forget about it ...In simple words: embrace your life and try not to harm others or yourself, be happy !

    True or false; check my work?

    3(a plus b) / (c) = (3a plus b) / (c)





    I'm thinking it's false.


    Because when you distribute 3, it distributes to both a and b.





    So it'd be (3a plus 3b) / (c)





    And that doesn't equal the other half of the equation...


    True or false; check my work?
    You're thinking is right. The distributive law for numbers is





    a ( b + c ) = ab + ac





    so a is ';distributed'; to b and c.True or false; check my work?
    false


    prove:


    multiply both sides by (c)


    3(a+b)=3a+b


    3a+3b=3a+b


    add (-3a) to both sides


    3b=b


    therefore it is false
    You're absolutely right.

    True or False: Antioxidants work to enhance the immune system?

    This is an argument between a co-worker and I:


    ';The exact example is CoQ10 acts as an antioxidant and enhances the immune system.'; I believe these are two separate systems,(one acting on free rads after oxidation the other fighting bacteria and viruses) she thinks that because something is an antioxidant it therefore enhances the immune system (the antioxidant helping out the immune system).





    I think I'm right but I would like to know what other people think.True or False: Antioxidants work to enhance the immune system?
    As Crouching Doggie said, antioxidants are not really a definitive part of the immune system. CoQ 10 or ';ubiquinone'; is definitely something you need, although unless you are particularly old or sick or you have certain mitochondrial diseases, you can make your own. Its only specific function that I know of in the human body is as the final step of ATP production in the mitochondria, so I'm not sure what that's supposed to have to do with the immune system.





    It is true that there is a great deal of research into what antioxidants may or may not do for the body, and some people think that the reason that those who eat larger amounts of fruits and vegetables are healthier is at least in part because they are high in antioxidants. The fact is that the jury is still out on what, if any, effect supplementation of antioxidants really has. There are even some experiments that show that certain antioxidants (notably vitamins A and E) are actually associated with HIGHER mortality, so go figure. I have also not really heard this immune system theory before--mostly I hear about cancer and cardiovascular disease supposedly being prevented by antioxidant supplementation. I also think that vague claims like ';enhancing the immune system'; are what sketchy product manufacturers do to get around FDA regulations on what they can say on their packaging.





    Simply put, I think you're right too, but I doubt it will do any good for you to argue it with your co-worker. It's not my experience that people who believe in those things are easily persuaded by logic or facts. ;-) But I wish you luck trying.True or False: Antioxidants work to enhance the immune system?
    Hi Meep. This is not an easy question, primarily because you and your co-worker have not defined what is meant by ';enhance';.





    Antioxidants are vital to a healthy immune response, but does that mean they ';enhance'; the immune response?





    The immune/inflammatory response (to infection, injury, etc.) involves the production of high levels of oxidants (hydrogen peroxide, superoxide, hypochlorus acid, etc.). These oxidants need to be controlled/contained by anti-oxidants. So, while anti-oxidants do not necessarily increase immune system function/activity, they do play a MAJOR role in limiting the toxic effects of that activity and, thus, in preventing excessive harm to healthy tissues from the immune response.





    CoQ is a central player in the so-called Antioxidant Network. So, optimum levels of CoQ will certainly ';enhance'; the body's ability to properly ';regulate'; the body's response to the immune response!





    Lastly, many ';antioxidants'; (e.g. Vitamin C, Vitamin E, zinc, selenium, etc.) play non-antioxidant, but critical roles in immune function.





    So, the bottom line to your challenging question, is really a question of the definition of ';enhance';!





    Hope this was helpful.





    Best wishes.
    In the simplest of terms, antioxidants are ';free radical scavengers.'; Free radicals are just residual products of natural metabollic processes which have the ability to harm genetic material.





    The immune system is an entirely different matter. The host immune system acts as our defense from pathogens (bacteria, viruses, etc.). Sometimes our immune system goes a little overboard and begins attacking the wrong antigen, e.g. a protein that's otherwise non-harmful or even part of our own bodies. The immune system, per se, doesn't perform ';free radical scavenging.';





    Are both processes good? Certainly, but they work in parallel to enhance our health, not so much to synergistally work together.





    I hope this makes some sense.
    The actions/consequences of antioxidants and antioxidant supplementation are hard to grasp.





    Do antioxidants enhance the immune system ? Yes. It is hard to plan and interpret studies in this field of research for numerous reasons - it's very hard to measure the amount of free-radicals in a cell at any give instance in time (oxidative stress), it's also very difficult to monitor the oxidative state of the antioxidants, their concentration within the cell, whilst at the same time measure some useful parameter of immune functionality. When you start to look at it in a human, you then have calculate the pharmacodynamics of the supplements you're giving (i.e. whats the concentration of the antioxidant in the blood, in tissue, in the cellular compartment of interest).





    It's often very appropriate to consider the body's processes as isolated systems - such as the immune system, the cardiovascular system, etc, once you get down to the molecular level, and examine what's going under the hood, these distinctions aren't really meaningful.





    The details as to how antioxidants enhance the immune system, and the various mechanisms proposed for their effects are tedious. I'll try to give a brief account of a few however.





    Firstly, free radicals, for all the bad press they get, are very important to the immune system. Many immune cells actively/intentionally make and use them to destroy pathogens. For the most part the cells that make these reactive oxygen species (ROS) keep them sequestered away inside vesicles (like balloons inside the cell) so that the immune cell itself doesn't get damaged by the ROS it has made. When these cells encounter a pathogen, they engulf it and throw it into the balloon carrying all the free radicals. Unfortunately, free radicals are rather unpredictable, and quite often they leak out during this process and thus cause the immune cell a good deal of stress (oxidative stress).


    As it happens, cells have realised this is a potential problem and so have antioxidants inside the cell waiting to mop up the runaway radicals. This reduces the oxidative stress of the cell and prevents it from being destroyed. This is a good example of enhancing the effectiveness of an immune process.


    In some cases the ROS production is out of control (certain types of sepsis, and our body's natural levels of antioxidants are not sufficient to help - so in this case antioxidant supplementation could be highly beneficial (see references).





    You mention CoQ10 specifically, and it has also shown immune enhancing capacity. Often times, when we receive a vaccination, we are given a small amount of the pathogen/virus etc that we are wanting to form immunity against. It is common practice to add into the vaccine a variety of factures that will stimulate the immune system to develop this immunity more rapidly. This is called an adjuvant and often times CoQ10 (ubiquinone) and/or some of its related compounds will be used for this. This is a good example of a chemical enhancing an immune response.





    CoQ10 is found in several places in a cell and in the blood also. It is found in many of the different membranous structures in the cell, including the mitochondrion, lysosome, endoplasmic reticulum etc. It has even shown a role in enhancing the uptake of the pathogens into the immune cells (as mentioned in the last paragraph), as they are guided into the free-radical containing vesicles.





    CoQ10 also can exist as a free radical (like most antioxidants) and it is capable of converting other antioxidants, such as tocopherol and ascorbic acid (vitamins E and C) back to their native forms after they have gathered up free radicals (so it resets them so they can be used again). Indeed, when there are lots of free radicals in the cellular environment, coQ10 is used up preferentially before Vit E or A.





    I hope this is of help for you. Although I agree that products contain things like 'enhances the immune system' and they probably aren't basing that on too much hard evidence. Also, it is the case the antioxidants have been shown to have detrimental effects in some studies, but the mechanism/cause for this is not clear yet. And there is not much evidence that antioxidant (including CoQ10) levels are significantly increased in the tissues, by intake of supplements.





    Here are a few bits and bobs from some journals that came to mind, but there's a lot more info available if you do a little digging.





    Sorry to have disagreed with your argument.

    One of the most widely accepted theories proposed to explain ageing is the free radical theory, according to which oxygen-derived free radicals cause age-related impairment through oxidative damage to biomolecules, with mitochondria being the main target of free radical attack. Since oxygen radicals are needed for many metabolic and physiological processes, an equilibrium between radical production and their antioxidant-linked inactivation is required to preserve health. Thus, senescence is the result of an imbalance between free radical production and antioxidant defences, with concomitant oxidative stress and age-dependent functional decline. This process is especially evident in the immune cells, which use free radicals in their functions and suffer a senescent deterioration probably linked to oxygen stress. Conversely, several laboratories, including our own, have shown that antioxidants preserve an adequate function of immune cells against homeostatic disturbances caused by oxidative stress, such as that involved with age. Therefore, since the immune system is an indicator of health and a longevity predictor, the protection of this system afforded by dietary antioxidant supplementation may play an important role in order to achieve a healthy ageing.

    Immune cells: free radicals and antioxidants in sepsis.


    Victor VM, Rocha M, De la Fuente M.





    There is an increasing body of evidence which implicates ROS, released by immune cells, as important mediators in sepsis and septic shock. During a normal immune response, antioxidants serve to down-regulate the ongoing immune response, mostly through modulation of proinflammatory mediators. During sepsis, however, there is an overstimulation of the immune system, and thus, the effect of antioxidants and other checkpoint molecules such as cytokines are overwhelmed by the proinflammatory mediators. Understanding the signal transduction mechanisms used by these mediators that regulate immune response could facilitate specific interventions to prevent host tissue injury in sepsis. In fact, based on the known protective effects of antioxidants, they could offer an alternative of the treatment of sepsis because they do not exert an indiscriminate stimulating effect on the immune cell function. Antioxidants increase tissue protection from oxidative stress and are effective and safe in a large range of concentrations.

    Coenzyme Q10 in vesicles composed of archaeal ether lipids or conventional lipids enhances the immuno-adjuvanticity to encapsulated protein





    B. Makabi-Panzu*, G. D. Sprott*, Corresponding Author Contact Information and G. B. Patel*





    Cellular accumulation, tissue distribution, and immuno-adjuvanticity were evaluated for liposomal CoQ10 prepared from either distearoylphosphatidylcholine:dicetylpho鈥?(4:1:5, mol. ratio) (conventional liposomes) or from the total polar lipids of the archaeon Methanosarcina mazei (archaeosomes). Liposomal CoQ10 vesicles of approximately 100 nm diameter, containing up to 179 渭mol of CoQ10 per mg of lipid have been evaluated using J774A.1 macrophages and Balb/c mice. Archaeosomes uptake by J774A.1 macrophages was better than with the conventional liposome, and the incorporation of CoQ10 enhanced the uptake of both lipid vesicle types. All vesicle types were detected in the liver and spleen of mice (4鈥?7% of injected dose) within 3 h of intraperitoneal injection. Moreover, incorporation of CoQ10 into lipid vesicles enhanced the immuno-adjuvanticity of both conventional liposomes and archaeosomes, to achieve approximately a doubling in the titres of BSA-specific antibody in sera to 169 and 430 渭g ml鈭?, respectively. Increases in IgG1 and IgG2a/2b accounted for most of the CoQ10-induced increases in anti-BSA titres. These results are rationalized on the basis of surface hydrophobicity and opsonization changes induced by the presence of CoQ10 in vesicles. We suggest that liposomal CoQ10 has potential as a new generation of vaccine delivery system to enhance the immune response. Its use as a novel delivery system may be particularly effective under pathological conditions where the occurrence of an oxidative stress condition significantly impairs the immune system functions.
    you are correct, your friend is wrong. i would go into it but it is getting too late at night!


    Sorry.
