Well known facts.... WHICH ARE WRONG!!!!!!!!!

Myth 1: Coca-Cola will dissolve a tooth overrnight. (HAH Dont the parents just WIsh!!)

FACT -
Coca-Cola will not dissolve a tooth (or a nail, or a penny, or a piece of meat) overnight. Coca-Cola contains acids (such as citric acid and phosphoric acid) which will eventually dissolve items such as teeth (given enough time), but so do plenty of other substances we commonly ingest (such as orange juice). The concentration of acid in these products is so low that our digestive systems are easily capable of coping with it with no harm to us

Myth 2:The Great Wall of China is the only man-made object visible from the moon (Wrong again)

FACT-
The only thing you can see from the moon is a beautiful sphere, mostly white (clouds), some blue (ocean), patches of yellow (deserts), and every once in a while some green vegetation. No man-made object is visible on this scale. In fact, when first leaving earth's orbit and only a few thousand miles away, no man-made object is visible at that point either.An object that can barely be seen from a height of 180 miles up is obviously not going to be visible from the moon (roughly 237,000 miles away), as confirmed by Apollo 12 astronaut Alan Bean

MYTH 3: On average, men think about sex every seven seconds ( wweeeLLL Wrong of course..... Apparently they think less about it....Contrary to what i thought as once in 3 seconds..... no comments check the linkHere )

MYTH 4:Hair grows back darker or thicker after it has been shaved.(Sigh... no wonder!!)

FACT-
Shaving has Absolutely No Accelarating effects on the Growth of hair!!! JUst an old Wive's Tale.
Scientifically proved.

MYTH 5: Cats always land on their feet

FACT-
While cats instinctively fall feet first and may survive falls from high places, they also may receive broken bones in the process.So Not always do cats land on their 4 feet.

MYTH 6:Swallowing a chewing gum would mean it would remain in ur digestive system for a long long time

FACT-
Chewing gum is largely indigestible, but it will make its way through your digestive system at the same rate as anything else you consume.

MYTH 7:Drinking alcohol — brandy, for example — will warm you up when out in cold weather.
(OH noo)

FACT-
A swig of brandy might initially make you feel warmer, but drinking any alcoholic beverage actually lowers your core body temperature. It sends blood to your skin, which will make you feel warm and flushed, but causes you to lose body heat. You could suffer from hypothermia and not even feel it. Alcohol can also cause dehydration and impair your judgment, which can make matters even worse.

MYTH 8:Everyone should drink eight glasses of water a day to stay healthy and properly hydrated

FACT-
While it's a good idea to drink plenty of water, there is no scientific or medical basis for the specific amount of eight glasses per day. Water intake needs vary from person to person, depending on age, size and amount of physical activity. We can also get water from food and other beverages, so we don't necessarily need to get all of our fluids in the form of drinking water

MYTH 9:If you cut a worm in half, each half will grow back into a complete worm

FACT-
If you cut a worm in half, you will most likely end up with two halves of a dead worm. However, some species of worms can re-grow a new tail if it is cut off (or more likely, eaten by a bird). While it is possible that the head half of the worm may grow a new tail, the tail half will not grow a new head — so you're unlikely to end up with more worms than you started with.

nice.........gud 2 c dat u remember the fact that U have a blog:)

Rajiv Nair said...

the last entry isnt entirely true dude.there is a specied of flatworm called "planaria" which can grow itself back from any part of its body.u cut it into 4..all of them will regenerate into a fully grown planeria

shadow said...

Thanx to daredevil to have pointed out that mistake

Planarians can reproduce by regeneration. If a Planaria is cut into two halves both halves may become two new Planaria (regeneration). In one experiment, T.H. Morgan found that a piece corresponding to 1⁄279th of a planarian could successfully regenerate into a new worm. This size (about 10,000 cells) is typically accepted as the smallest fragment that could regrow into a new planarian.

I hope this location is really the proper page to write this... I simply hoped to let anybody using the forum who lives in Australia know about a very good quality audio visual equipment website called Ordio. I discovered them quite by accident when I was hunting for [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Sennheiser Headphone[/url] and it just so happened that these guys had the most competitive prices around. Not only that but they are remarkably helpful and even followed up on my transaction to make sure that I was still completely happy. They actually buy out huge inventories of high end audio visual equipment so that they can really break the price down. Certainly stop by their site if you're scouting for some home electronics.
