A physics professor pushes against a stationary wall, working up a sweat. Is he doing any actual physical work on the wall?
 
  A) No--it's a law of nature that physics profs never do any actual work.
  B) No, because the force by his hands against the wall is balanced by the force by the wall pushing back.
  C) Yes, because he is exerting a force against the wall during a period of time.
  D) No, because the wall is not moving.
  E) Yes, because his arm muscles are moving other muscles through a distance.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
