when playing poker do you have to show your cards?
Do you have to show your cards if you call a bet on the last hand and you have the losing cards?
If a hand goes to showdown (like in your question, if there is a bet and a call on the river), than ANYBODY who was dealt cards for that hand has a right to ask to see either one of the hands.
Most of the time on tv and in real live games if someone shows a winning hand, the losing hand will just muck and everyone will move on, no questions asked. Like slowrolling, asking to see someone's losing hand is extremely poor etiquette. However, it is the right of ANY PLAYER WHO WAS DEALT CARDS IN THE HAND.
When you play online, and a hand goes to showdown, you might click "Muck Cards" to try to hide your losing hand, but someone just has to click the last hand button or go through their own hand history of the hand and there it is, revealed. The online poker sites allow you to do this because it is your right. If you're railing a big game, watching your favorite poker pro play online, you can still look up the hand history or click on the "Last Hand" button, but guess what? The hands mucked at showdown are not revealed. Why? Because you weren't involved in the hand so you don't get to look.
Now, why would this be a rule? Simple. Because it helps to deter collusion. If you suspect that two players are colluding, a player might ask to see both hands at showdown. If every player who was dealt cards in a hand didn't have the right to see the cards at showdown, you and your buddy can go sit in a game and raise everyone else out of it every hand and no one would know that you're buddy is folding the nuts to you...
Now just to clarify... This doesn't mean you get to see any cards being held in a hand. If someone folds to a river bet, you don't get to see that hand. You only get to see the cards that are still live when action has ended on the river and a showdown is used to determine the winner.

Show Me Your Genitals
Why is it acceptable to show your bra strap when you are wearing a strappy top?
your Bra is underwear yet some people seem to think that it is ok to show off your bra strap when wearing a top with skinny straps. This just looks messy to me and gives me the impression that the wearer doesn't really care about their appearance - am I being picky?
In a way, I agree with you, but don't be too hard on the girl who's showing her bra straps!
I don't know about you, but I'm always pressed for time. Rushing for work this way, school another and sometimes I just don't have time to search for a strapless bra. And when I do have time, it's pretty hard to tell wether or not the strapless would look okay with a tank top. See, most strapless bras are pretty much made for strapless tops. They generally have extra padding and extra push-up with a plunging cut in the front. That cut, along with the push-up inserts create this really ugly, fashion faux-pas line when you wear a high necked tank or any tank top that's form fitting. If you don't get what I mean, try wearing the usual strapless with a white tank. Yeah, not pretty.
Also, strapless bras are far from comfy. They are tighter, with that elastic grip on the inside that makes imprints into your skin after wearing them for the day. I swear, it's like the corset era all over again! And that bandeau strapless are comfy, but they just give everyone a bad case of uni-boob, so those are out of the question.
But still, I get what you mean when you see ladies with decorative bra straps peaking out for everyone to see. It could look slutty if you see the victoria secret label poking out or rhinestones, but if it matches the tank top, then it's socially okay. The only time when there isn't an excuse is when women wear a regular bra with a strapless dress/top. Now that's just terrible.
