Alison 2 things:
1)I can’t say why women aren’t in the science and math areas, many women I know are majoring in such areas2)This is a freshman english class, we are learning the different styles of papers, this is one type of paper. It doesn’t have to be about people, that was my own decision.
Half Man- Sorry, Third person perspective only
Den buck- thank you, but why should it be an inverse correlation? I’m saying that people who play softer seem to be better musicians usually, pay attention at the store and you’ll notice that. Or read an interview with, say, Leo Kottke, followed by one with Slash or Dimebag. You’ll see my point.
April 14, 2002 at 2:15 am #69091Here’s my big question:
What makes something stereotypical and offensive?This has been going through my head ever since this topic went up. Why is it that a woman doing an essay on the different types of men (the cheapskate, etc. . .) isn’t sexist or offensive at all, but my not mentioning women in an essay can be construed as offensive? This isn’t another white male complaining about "reverse descrimination"(a half-assed term) this is a serious question.
April 14, 2002 at 7:55 am #69092DEFINTION OF CORRELATION:
</font><blockquote><font>quote:</font><hr><font> The main result of a correlation is called the correlation coefficient (or "r"). It ranges from -1.0 to +1.0. The closer r is to +1 or -1, the more closely the two variables are related.
If r is close to 0, it means there is no relationship between the variables. If r is positive, it means that as one variable gets larger the other gets larger. If r is negative it means that as one gets larger, the other gets smaller (often called an "inverse" correlation). </font><hr></blockquote><font>Correlation: More dB’s ==> more talent, better musician
Inverse correlation: Less dB’s ==> more talent, better musicianWhere dB stands for decibel (and not for den Buck, who studied physics and mathematics for some years, a long time ago) <img> <img> <img>
