I hate shirts. I have a herniated disc in my neck and sciatica in my right buttock. Both are constant sources of pain. I would gladly live with either for the rest of my life if I could only eliminate the hours I spend each week, trying on different shirts until I find one that doesn’t make me scream inside my head. My torso is extraordinarily sensitive to touch. The slightest breeze makes me flinch. Cloth that doesn’t feel right, doesn’t lie right, causes real mental pain.

Typically, stocked cabinets are available in extremely limited sizes, and while most cabinets are available in 3 inch increments, some stock cabinets may only be available in 6 half inch increments. This is important when it comes to the complete layout of your kitchen redesign, because stock cabinets will be mass-produced to the same size and specifications with no ok bye as to where they go. You are likely to usually need fillers and end panels to create a completed look when using stock cupboards. The end of each cabinet that may be exposed, on both the second and the base cabinets, will have to be finished to match the front of the cabinets. This will include cutting and fitting finished panels on to the cabinet carcass itself. Keep in mind that if you are running your cabinets wall to wall, then finishing the ends is not important considering that the wall will hide the ends.

Amy Winehouse died yesterday at the age of 27. I wasn't a big follower of hers, but there's no denying her enormous vocal talent. I hope that talent is remembered at least as well as the dysfunction and substance abuse she was famous for.
Rest in peace Ms. Winehouse, and may your beautiful voice be remembered always.

I told him I did not feel comfortable paying a mortgage for a house that was not equally ours. Well — that didn’t matter, because here we are.
He asked me to help with the down payment. I agreed, with the condition that I would be added to the title. He agreed to my conditions, and the day of the closing I was there to sign paperwork in exchange for the funds.
He looked straight into my eyes and promised me I would be added to the title as soon as possible.
It’s now a month later, and here we are.
Now he is telling me he does not feel comfortable adding me to the title until after we are married. We have not yet set a date. He says he wants to protect himself. I understand, but my trust and respect for him have been deeply affected.
His solution is to either give me back my funds, or to sell me the house for what he paid for it.
My question is, how do I get over this broken promise? How do I NOT let this affect my choice to marry him?
Dear Maybe NOT: Let’s recap: Your guy makes a decision. You explain your concerns, and then he either denies them or reluctantly agrees to your conditions, which he then reneges on.
Here are my suggestions: Buy the house from him.
And then show him the door.
Dear Amy: I have been friends with “Cat” for over 30 years. Cat and I have a mutual friend, “Sharon,” from back in the day.
Cat doesn’t get along with Sharon because she feels that Sharon is always busy, does not have time for her and will only meet on her turf.
Sharon has two high school kids at home. Cat does not.
Sharon and I get along great. Cat is now mad at me because I get along with Sharon and will occasionally spend time with her, when I am not busy with my own job and kids.
I have tried to reach out to Cat and spend time with her, but when I do she complains about Sharon. If she finds out that I have talked to her or have spent time with her she goes into a rage. She accuses me of being distant and of not spending time with her.
Cat gets mad if I spend time with Sharon, but she spends time with other people that we are mutually friends with, and I don’t get invited to their outings. I’m fine with that.
I am getting tired of Cat trying to control my other friendships.
How do I handle this with her? She has basically written me off as a friend.
I am tired of this drama and jealousy. She is 54 years old.
Shouldn’t these playground antics be over by now?
Dear Hurt: One reason playground play is so important in primary school is because it gives children the opportunity to learn and practice important social skills involving boundaries, sharing, winning and losing.
“Cat” didn’t seem to absorb these important lessons.
You have the right and responsibility to engage in relationships that are happy, healthy, and balanced. It looks as if your friendship with Cat has run its course. She has resorted to emotional bullying.
You should give her the courtesy of respectfully thanking her for years of friendship, and let her know that you regret the fact that your long personal relationship seems to be ending.
Dear Amy: “Upset” was complaining that her husband had invited two additional guests along on their holiday, but that these guests could not afford to split the cost of housing.
Dear Fan: I like to remind readers (and myself) to try to lead with compassion.

I’m here today to shine the spotlight on a few bands with amazing singers performing at Rocklahoma. Although there are a whole slew of incredible bands, I will be taking a look a two in particular: Five Hundredth Year and Citizen Zero.
A great combination between Five Finger Death Punch and Breaking Benjamin, Five Hundredth Year is one of the Friday Axis Stage bands that makes getting to the venue early well worth your time. The band will be coming to Rocklahoma with an updated lineup, and I am looking forward to seeing what they have put together.
Watch the video for “Blame” and listen not only for his strong, powerful vocals but also for the musical talent of the band.
Another ear-catching song to listen to is “Stand Up,” which features a catchy guitar and drum opening. Pay attention to the skill of drummer Zach Hannus and the impeccable groove built by guitarists Ben Moss and Jonathan Immers and bassist Brenda Bennett.
Josh LeMay is a fantastic singer. Mellifluous and gentle, his voice caresses your ears and soothes your mind.
Enjoy their newly released lyric video for “Go (Let Me Save You),” a beautiful rock song that mixes ballad style with driving rock, along with an awesome guitar solo.
Citizen Zero will be opening the Hard Rock Stage on Sunday, following in the footsteps of some amazing acts who have played that time before, including Young Guns, Sons of Texas and The Sword.

May i ask of a natural remedy that is safe for my baby, to aid with fluid retention please.
Answer: Hi Natasha, Fluid retention tends to happen later in pregnancy. This is a side effect of pregnancy as you do retain more fluid during pregnancy to support the baby. It is not advisable to try to get rid of the fluid. You can help lessen its effects by raising your legs at times through the day and getting regular exercise. Best wishes, Alex.

variability in the answers to the question.
Numeric data from a statistical question can be displayed in a line plot.
The frequency is represented with a marker, like an x or a dot.
Mean, median, and range can be used to analyze data in a line plot.
The mean, or average, of a data set is the sum of the values in the data set divided by the number of values in the data set.
The median is the middle value in an ordered data set.
The range is the difference between the greatest and least values in a data set.
First, find the sum of the values in the data set.
There are thirteen 8-inch skillets, seven 9-inch skillets, ten 10-inch skillets, and ten 12-inch skillets.
13(8 in.) + 7(9 in.) + 10(10 in.) + 10(12 in.) = 104 in. + 63 in. + 100 in. + 120 in.
Then, divide the sum by the number of values shown in the graph, 40.
387 in. ÷ 40 = 9.675 in.
So, the mean diameter of the skillets is 9.675 inches.

Question: Mr. Paige is an only child. Mr and Mrs Paige have 3 daughters and for each daughter in the family there is a brother how many members are in the Paige family?
Answer: 9, because including Mrs. Paige there is 4 daughters.
Mrs. Paige's brother is not a Paige, so only 8.
For each daughter in the family there is a brother. It is not referring to Mrs. Paige's brother, it is referring to a brother in the family (i.e. a son of Mr. and Mrs. Paige), so the answer is 9.

Are biometrics the answer to secure authentication?
Is biometric security ready for corporate primetime?
In IT security, access governance is all about reducing to the extent possible the risk that comes with end users, specifically the danger of excessive or unnecessary access privileges to systems and data. This includes the issue of setting strategy and policy to guide who has access to what; avoiding privilege creep; updating authentication processes; and keeping costs contained. The end goal is for the enterprise to put in place a secure authentication and access process -- and keep it up to date.
As the tools and methods evolve, an enterprise access governance system must also evolve. This guide looks at the parameters of identity and access management now, with an eye to keeping IT security pros updated on the latest developments in identity and access management.
Keeping control over who has access to valuable and sensitive company data and systems demands moving past the username/password approach to IAM. Get up to speed on using multifactor authentication by reviewing these timely materials.
Desperate times calls for cutting-edge measures. Learn the many ways -- from the FIDO Alliance to the development of cryptographic keys -- those at the forefront of IT security are developing strategic means and advanced tech to protect company assets.
Identity and access issues are complex and come with their own terminology. You’ll be better equipped to understand current IAM methods, products and strategies if you make these terms part of your vocabulary.

Question from my Facebook: How do we learn to control negative character traits?
Answer: A person can control his character traits by being in the right environment that will support him and have a positive influence on him. There is no other way. Is there any other opposing force that can be used to change a person’s character? Neither personal training nor self-persuasion works these days.
All character traits are negative because everything that a person does, he does for himself only. Therefore, only the right environment can give a person the opportunity to understand how to balance himself.
Question: How does the right environment influence negative character traits? For example, what about a person who is stingy?
Answer: Stinginess is not a bad characteristic. It depends on your perspective. It could be that the person is not stingy, but cautious, considerate, and prudent. Is it better to squander or give everything away indiscriminately? Certainly not.
However, first the environment has to educate a person, directing him or her towards exiting their personal ego and connecting together above it. The environment will then be able to give a person the correct middle line of action.
The creation of the right society that is on a higher level than the society in which we are now is a good and blessed environment. Our job is to rise above this plane.
Is It Necessary To Change Character Traits?

African myth of Impundulu the lighting bird, takes the true life form of the hammerkop, eagle and secretary birds in order to answer the origins of rain, lightning and chaos in the Venda culture.
The Venda, also known as Vhavenda are a Southern African people living mostly in Thohoyandou near the South Africa Zimbabwe border. As in most cultures around the world, fire and water hold a special fascination with the Venda people and the Venda can conjure up ancestral spirits to assist with early matters.
According to Siyabona Africa, Venda believe zwidutwane water spirits live at the bottom of waterfalls.
These beings are only half-visible; they only have one eye, one leg, and one arm. One half can be seen in this world and the other half in the spirit world. The Venda would take offerings of food to them because the zwidutwane cannot grow things underwater.
Khokhovula is a traditional healer or Inyanga, Sangoma practicing in Siloam Nzhelele Limpopo Province South Africa. He states Impundulu, Mpundulu or rain bird is known as Ndadzi and Mheni, was historically used by the Venda people in battle striking their enemies and their enemies livestock with lighting bolts.
The Zimbabwe Ndebele people call Impundulu the lighting bird, Inyoni yezulu. Khokhovula also says it was a law that if the impundulu bird was found dead on the ground, it must be reported to the community elders immediately before wicked people steal its powers.
It is said that impundulu the rain bird may connect with the heat of the sun and possess an infinite heat of which people with negative powers mostly witches use to create a sun stroke and the lightning bolt.
Depending on the tribe and culture, some believe the hammerkop, secretary bird or eagle is the lightning bird or impundulu. Many superstitions revolve around these birds, harming its nests could bring about death, harming its eggs causes sickness and disease and if the birds fly over your house at night and calls out, a death in the home will soon follow.

Abstract : Increasing attention has recently been devoted to protein-based nanobiosensors. The main reason is the huge number of possible technological applications, ranging from drug detection to early cancer diagnosis. Their operating model is based on protein activation and the corresponding conformational change due to the capture of an external molecule, the so-called ligand. Recent measurements, performed with different techniques on the human 17-40 olfactory receptor, revealed a very narrow window of response in respect to the odour concentration. This is a crucial point for understanding whether the use of this olfactory receptor as a sensitive part of a nanobiosensor is a good choice. In this paper we investigate the topological and electrical properties of the human olfactory receptor 17-40 with the objective of providing a microscopic interpretation of available experiments. To this purpose, we model the protein by means of a graph that is able to capture the mean features of the 3D backbone structure. The graph is then associated with an equivalent impedance network, able to evaluate the impedance spectra of the olfactory receptor in its native and activated state. We assume a topological origin of the different protein electrical responses to different ligand concentrations: In this perspective all the experimental data are collected and interpreted satisfactorily within a unified scheme, also useful for application to other proteins.

There are 6 persons seating on a round table in which two individual have the same names. What is the probability that the two same-named individuals will be neighbors?
Answer: Total no of ways in which 6 persons can sit on a round table is (6-1)! = 5! = 120.
If we consider two same-named individuals as one person there are 5 persons who can sit in (5-1)! ways and these individuals can be seated together in 2! ways.
So, required probability =(2*(5-1)!)/(6-1)!= 2/5.
So, the answer is 2/5 = 0.4.

A state of tension, distrust and mutual hostility between states or groups of countries, without recourse to actual warfare. The state existed between the Soviet bloc countries and the Western world from the end of the Second World War until 1990. The term was first used in a speech made on 16 April 1947 by the US financier Bernard Baruch (1870-1965), when US ambassador to the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission, and is said to have been suggested to him by Herbert B. Swope, former editor of the New York World. See also NATO; Warsaw Pact.
George Orwell first used the term cold war in a 1945 article entitled You and the Atom Bomb, which described the United States, Russia, and China as postwar “superstates” whose nuclear arsenals would involve them in a permanent state of cold war. Orwell borrowed this phrase from the French la guerre froide (“the cold war”), which he translated as a state of war that lacked the overt conditions of war. The term entered the American lexicon in 1947 following the publication of the political commentator Walter Lippmann's The Cold War. Lippmann had written the book in response to The Sources of Soviet Conduct, an essay that the diplomat George Kennan had published that year in the journal Foreign Affairs under the signature Mr. X. It was in this essay that Kennan recommended that the United States adopt a policy of containment to curb the threat of Russian expansionism.
Lippmann invoked historical evidence to disagree with Kennan's contention that Russia posed a danger to the international order. Arguing that Russian nationalism was far more important to Soviet policymakers than international communism, Lippmann concluded that the United States could not afford to police the world. But the atmosphere of mutual suspicion and fear then enveloping the globe favored Kennan's recommendations over Lippmann's refutations of them, and for the next half century the world's geography was separated along a symbolic East-West divide, which transformed the West into an imaginary community of democratic states united in their defense of universal values against the incursions of world communism.
The policy of containment tacitly empowered the United States and Russia to remap the borderlines of territories according to ideological rather than spatial coordinates. Throughout the cold war, developing countries acquired significance through their alignment on one or the other side of these opposed ideological systems. The global hegemons thereafter supplanted the political arrangements of the complex societies they occupied with the systems of representation through which they administered and controlled their territories. As evidenced by their placement of the Asian nations of Japan, Korea, and Vietnam within the symbolic geography of the West and the Central and South American nations of Cuba, Nicaragua, and Chile within that of the East, however, the efforts of cold war cartographers to redraw the world map at times produced highly disorienting effects.
In addition to establishing the coordinates of U.S. foreign policy, the cold war also dramatically reorganized U.S. domestic life. When President Harry Truman signed National Security Council (NSC) document number sixty-eight (NSC68) into law in 1950, he invoked the need for the containment of communism at home as well as abroad as the official rationale for a national security state. With NSC68 Truman inaugurated a cold war nation-state that correlated domestic policies and national security interests and transformed the foreign policy of Americanization abroad into an instrument for securing domestic solidarity. There is a basic conflict, said Truman, between the idea of freedom under a government of laws and the idea of slavery under the grim oligarchy of the Kremlin.
Truman intended that this declaration of an imaginary war with the Kremlin would solicit from American citizens the willingness in peacetime to subordinate themselves to wartime emergency measures. When it shifted its area of concern to the sphere of culture, however, the discourse of containment did not restrict its operations to the regulation of domestic communists. After President Truman signed an executive order banishing gays and lesbians from federal employment in 1950, the cultural terrain over which containment exercised its policing powers expanded to include the regulation of sexual norms, race relations, social movements, civil rights, artistic expression, and gendered hierarchies.
The alarm with which the nation's writers and artists responded to McCarthyism, and their disaffection with the radical politics of the Popular Front, precipitated a massive shift in political loyalties. Flannery O'Connor, Norman Mailer, Jackson Pollock, James Baldwin, Arthur Miller, and Ralph Ellison abandoned the New Deal's ethos of populist sentimentality and embraced what Lionel Trilling described as the tragic ambiguity of political and moral decisions. The “consensus school” of historians that emerged in the 1950s fostered a political attitude that tempered the worst excesses of the strategy of containment. Arthur Schlesinger, Daniel Boorstin, and Louis Hartz described McCarthyism and communism as related forms of ideological reasoning that were antithetical to the “practical genius” of American liberalism.
In 1957 Daniel Bell introduced the slogan the end of ideology to distinguish America's tolerance of dissent, embrace of multiple points of view, and willingness to compromise from Russia's commitment to the infallibility of the Marxist dialectic and its equation of dissent with treason. But the consensus school of history might itself be described as having provided an ideological cover for the policy of containment. When consensus historians proposed that their historical analyses be submitted to the tenets of pragmatic thought, they frequently confused pragmatism's tenets with the reason of state.
The consensus and the cold-war mentality both underwent severe changes in the period between 1963 and 1974. Their breakdown was precipitated by such enormous political events as the Cuban missile crisis; the assassinations of John and Robert Kennedy, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King, Jr.; détente; President Nixon's China visit; the Watergate trial; and Nixon's resignation from office. But when the free speech movement joined forces with the opposition to the war in Vietnam, the resultant coalition of oppositional forces produced profound challenges to the foundational assumptions of the cold-war mentality.
In place of ratifying basic Americanist values, the counterculture struggled for liberation from them. Including the perspectives of women, as well as the racial and sexual minorities who had been the victims of the state's repressive policies during the cold war, such revisionist historians as William Appleman Williams and Howard Zinn challenged the official explanations of the consensus school of United States history. Noam Chomsky resurrected Walter Lippmann's argument that America's motives for entering into a cold war had more to do with control of foreign markets and the control of global resources than the defense of democratic freedoms. Chomsky discerned a congruence between the repressive regimes that the United States had established throughout the developing world and its policing of domestic minorities. In 1979 E. L. Doctorow retold the history of the cold war epoch from the revisionists' perspective in The Book of Daniel.
The political upheavals of the 1960s and 1970s left the cold war in a moribund condition. But the cold war would undergo an eight-year revival during Ronald Reagan's presidency and just before the dismantling of the Berlin wall in November 1989. Recalling eschatological themes from the Book of the Apocalypse, Reagan claimed the Bible as the ultimate authority for the United States's possible use of nuclear weapons against the Soviet Union. We are about to undergo a dreadful period of suffering, Reagan confided to some visiting theologians, in connection with the extraordinarily violent struggle between the forces of good and evil that is to precede the return of Jesus and the millennium of his rule.
But in place of the global nuclear Armageddon that Reagan, along with many other authorities, had foreordained, the evil empire collapsed as a consequence of the loss of totalitarian communist control. This terminal event dismantled the narrative of containment on which the cold war had been founded. Among several other consequences this ending posed a problem of historical closure. The nation's subsequent entry into a global economic order displaced the grounding assumptions that had constituted its coherence. Entry into the new world order did not conclusively sum up the historical purpose of the preceding fifty years. The events that had taken place during the cold war simply ceased happening, and the narratives that had endowed historical events with their intelligibility simply broke off.
At the end of the cold war, the provision of an appropriate formal closure would have performed the essential political function of providing a model of order capable of bringing its end into concordance with its beginning. The absence of an ending consonant with the nation's official account of its beginning has animated the fear of a disintegrating state. United States citizens have responded variously to the disappearance of the symbolic structures in which they had constituted their national identities.
In an effort to supply a conclusion, Francis Fukuyama has proposed the phrase the end of history as a way to conceptualize the cold war as the accomplishment of the historical destiny of the West through the realization of the universal truths of equality. But like the consensus historians' term the end of ideology, Fukuyama's the end of history has only reassembled capitalism versus totalitarianism into a new cognitive map that would oppose free market ideologies of vanguard Western states to the socioeconomic arrangements of the rest of the globe. Whether the cold war has in fact ended or has simply been refunctioned as the core discourse of globalization remains to be seen.

A nurse put 100 gloves into 4 containers. She puts gloves in the containers in such a way that each container has two more gloves than the one before. How many gloves are in each container?
Answer: 22, 24, 26, and 28 gloves.
Let X be the number of gloves in the first container. Then there are X+2 gloves in the 2-nd container, X+4 gloves in the 3-rd container, and X+6 gloves in the 4-th container. Hence, we have X+X+2+X+4+X+6=100. Solving for X, we get X=22 gloves in the first container, 24 gloves in the 2-nd container, 26 gloves in the 3-rd container and 28 gloves in the 4-th container.

There are 6 persons seating on a round table in which two individual have the same names. What is the probability that the two same-named individuals will be neighbors?
Answer: Total no of ways in which 6 persons can sit on a round table is (6-1)! = 5! = 120.
If we consider two same-named individuals as one person there are 5 persons who can sit in (5-1)! ways and these individuals can be seated together in 2! ways.
So, required probability =(2*(5-1)!)/(6-1)!= 2/5.
So, the answer is 2/5 = 0.4.

"What is hard about life as a missionary?"
"Missing family and friends and giving up independence."
A young couple talks about obstacles to the mission field.
"It depends on the country and the person."
Answer from Jamie in Spain.
It varies from field to field, and also from person to person. I personally live in Europe, so some of the hardest things for me have been emotional rather than physical. I miss my family. I miss Chicago pizza!
However, I think the hardest thing for me on the field is coping bi-culturally. I feel that I do fine here, but going back, or dealing with people from home is really strange. I've changed. I've become a different person over here in Europe, because I have to. But the people back home have never seen that side of me and so that's difficult. I have to straddle two cultures that have such different worldviews about war and peace, government, taxes, family, and religion.
For some the difficulty may lie instead in physical matters, like living in some parts of Africa. Others may wrestle with their co-workers.
Answer from Beth, who has served for six years in Africa.
Most missionaries would tell you that all the changes are hard: new country, new language, new food, new culture, new "norms" and values. Of all the things I've found the hardest and seen more people struggle with is adaptation to a whole new "world" (all at once).
If you go into your overseas assignment with the attitude of "this is my home now ... I need to learn how to live here," you'll do well. Resist the urge to compare everything with the way you prefer to do things or the way things are in your home country. To borrow a well-known line: "We're not in Kansas anymore."
If you'll choose to become part of the lives of those you're ministering to and learn to accept differences, you'll have a better chance of being effective than if you hold on yourself and your way of doing things.
Remember Paul's words and become all things to all men. By surrendering your culture and comfort, and learning to assimilate to your new "home" culture, you'll find it easier to adapt.
"Showing tolerance to other missionaries."
Answer from R., who has been a missionary for two years.
The hardest thing about living on the mission field is probably getting along with the other missionaries. At times you may be stuck with these people 24/7. Sometimes there are great people that you can get along with easily, but almost invariably there are also people that, to you, may seem almost impossible. You may find out that some people are cheap, selfish, and have a very different outlook on life that you do. One of them may beat you up or attack you ... I'm not kidding. You may not "fit in" with the group but unfortunately you have no other place to go.
God can use that to get you even more involved with the nationals and sharing the gospel with them!
Ultimately you may realize that the tolerance that was so hard for you to offer others was also given to you by them, as well. Because, you see, you're not such a saint yourself.
"Being forgotten by people at home."
Answer from Jack, who has served in the Philippines for thirty-seven years.
When I left for the field, I predicted we would be forgotten within six months. I was wrong. It was two months! Except for an occasional email directed to the entire church, we received an email here and there. Birthdays and anniversaries were forgotten.
Even though we sent updates via email every month, very few people responded to them.
But perhaps God knew that I was a "people person" and required a feeling of loyalty and support. Perhaps by not getting it, he taught me to depend only on him. It worked! We have a great ministry. If God brings you to it, he will bring you through it!
"Here’s a list of some of the hardships of being a missionary."
Editor's note: Don't be discouraged by the many potential challenges... nobody has to face them all!
-- Leaving friends and relatives. Missing birthdays, weddings, and funerals, as well as family reunions.
-- Personal family or marital problems exacerbated by the unique stresses and strains of living in a foreign culture.
-- Culture shock: learning to fit into a new culture and different ways of doing things we are familiar with, food, traditions, customs, habits, transportation, etc. Enduring the humiliation of fumbling with an unfamiliar language, sounding like a moron, etc.
-- Loneliness, especially for singles.
- The environment: often excessive heat without air conditioning, filth, noise, lack of efficiency, things that don't work, people who don't show up when they say they will, long lines, etc. Dealing with bureaucracy. ("Come back tomorrow; you need another document").
-- False expectations about the ministry. Not seeing expected fruit, having little positive to report to people who are sacrificing to provide support.
-- Poverty. How can I possibly respond to all who ask me for help? The pain of seeing people without the necessary means of support, medical treatment, schooling for their children, etc.
-- Conflict with colleagues, especially fellow missionaries; conflict with national leaders.
-- The frustration of being assigned a job I wouldn't have chosen and am not trained to do.
-- The struggle to keep a quiet time with so many pressures.
-- Children's schooling: national schools (which may inadequately prepare them for college, international schools (which are expensive), homeschool (when we are too busy as it is), send them to a boarding school, etc.
-- Finances: the challenge of raising funds; churches who drop our support.
-- Security: thieves on the street, robbers who break in, threats on the lives of our children, etc. Serving in hostile or war zones.
-- Working with nationals. The difficulty of knowing when to give over authority; how long to stay, when to leave. Conflicts, especially over buildings, property, vehicles, etc.
Read the rest of Jack's list.

Q6. The vodka dispensing machine keeps malfunctioning. However----it can be regulated to give µ ounces (I don`t know: what measures did they use?). If the ounces of fill are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.4 ounces, at what value should we set µ so that a 6 ounce vodka mug will overflow only 2.5% of the time?
Answer: We know from the Empirical Rule that 95% of the observations are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So that means that 5% of the observations are in the tails to the left and right of 95%. The normal distribution is symmetric, so each of the two tails contains 2.5% of the observations. We want to set the machine so that 6 ounces marks the point where 2.5% of the drinks overflow (dreadful waste of vodka if you ask me!). Look at my beautiful sketch. Make sure you can understand why having 2.5% in one tail means that the random variable that corresponds to that area must be 2 standard deviations from the mean.
We’re given that the standard deviation is 0.4 ounces. Two standard deviations is 0.4 * 2 = 0.8. So µ must be 0.8 ounces from 6 ounces. So we should set µ = 6 – 0.8 = 5.2 ounces.

In this problem each letter stands for one digit and has the same value throughout the equation. Find the appropriate digits to make the following subtraction problem work.
Find the largest number that can be divided into 701, 1059, 1417 and 2312 and leaves the same remainder. Trial and error will work, but there is a much simpler way to find the number.
Answer: Subract each number from every other. We get 895,1253, 1611, 716, 358 and 358. Notice 358 = 2 x 179. Thus, the only number that can divide in every case with no remainder is 179. 179 is the divisor we want. By checking, one sees that it will always leave a remainder of 164.
