Sigh, but the real Harold Ramis doesn't come with Silmer.

Edit: If anyone cares. eBay has them at double the price all with shipping charges akin to rape.

Interest is piqued, not peaked or peeked!

Just bought Operation Flashpoint 2 for the PC. Wonder what my parents think if they knew that meant me playing as a US Marine killing Chinese soldiers....

I have a cutout of an Eric Francis mask on my desk, smiling with its eyes cut out, for no particular reason aside from it's creeping people out.

What if you displayed your interest in graph form. Could the graph not peak?

Your piqued interest could have a graphical peak, which is to say the graph of interest piquing could peak, and a peek at the peak of the piqued interest graph may pique your interest, but you could not graph peaked interest.

These anti cable / anti local TV channel commercials are ridiculous.

I was wondering about that
Is there a place where I can see both sides of the issue?

I feel embarrassed asking questions like this in University. I did it in High School but have since forgot about it... this is for stats btw... here goes:

1. "A box of candy has 15 pieces. Ten are made of chocolate and five are made of vanilla.
Three pieces are selected at random."
(a) What is the probability of getting two chocolates and one vanilla?
(10C2 + 5C1)/(15C3) <== Is that right?

(b) What is the probability of getting all chocolates?
10C3/15C3 <== Is that right?

(c) What is the probability of selecting at least one chocolate?
I'm stuck on this one.
------------------------------
2. If 5 balls are thrown at random into 10 boxes, what is the probability that no
box will receive more than one ball?
Absolutely lost on this one too
------------------------------
3. One half percent of the population has a particular disease. A test is developed for the disease. The test gives a false positive 3% of the time and a false negative 2% of the time
(a) What is the probability that Joe (a random person) tests positive?
(b) Joe just got the bad news that the test came back positive; what is the probability that Joe has the disease?
