Question by Solong N: Independent event an probability?
A person is playing a slot machine. He makes the comment “I have been playing this damn thing for over three hours and haven’t won yet! I will keep playing because I am bound to hit soon!” What’s wrong with what he said? Explain your answer using independent events and probability.
Best answer:
Answer by sandynlily each individual spin of the reels is an event with outcomes of fixed odds, every time he experiences a losing event, the losing event is not removed from the pool of events of which the random events occur from and the odds of winning and losing remain the same pull after pull regardless of how many times he spins and loses. Assuming that the odds of the slot mahcine are set against him, it would not be in his better interest to continue playing the machine, as the odds of him winning have not changes at all and he is still expecting to lose.
Lesson be learned, this happens all of the time in casinos, do not chase your losses.

Answer by Edward Waaaay too many cards. Your deck MUST be between 40 and 60 cards.
You have no central strategy, no consistency, and well, it’s just a bunch of random monsters thrown in together.
Monsters: 19
2 Caius the Shadow Monarch
2 Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer
2 Blue Thunder T-45
1 D.D. Assailant
2 Banisher of the Radiance
1 D.D. Warrior Lady
1 Snipe Hunter
2 Green Gadget
2 Red Gadget
2 Yellow Gadget
1 Neo-Spacian Grand Mole
1 Spirit Reaper
Spells: 14
2 Lightning Vortex
2 Soul Taker
1 Heavy Storm
1 Mystical Space Typhoon
1 Monster Reborn
1 Brain Control
2 Enemy Controller
2 Creature Swap
2 Shrink
Traps: 9
2 Compulsory Evacuation Device
2 Bottomless Trap Hole
2 Sakuretsu Armor
1 Dust Tornado
1 Torrential Tribute
1 Karma Cut
Total: 42 cards
Gadgets are the way to go for people wanting to get into the tournament scene.
All these cards can be found in struture decks, safe for Grand Mole, Blue Thunder and Monster Reborn, but they are rare, commons respectively.
Consistent, effective, and most importantly, cheap.

Posted by: Alan in binding machine review, tags: 170lbs., advice, BOOT, CAMP, MARINE, Marines, MONTHS...., Real, Skinny, some, tall
Question by Prewett: 6′7″ 170lbs. Real tall, Real Skinny, MARINE BOOT CAMP IN 6 MONTHS…. Any Marines got some advice?
I don’t know how many times I hear it… “Do you play basketball?” “Your a tall glass of water son.” “String Bean.” etc…
I scored 4 points from a perfect score on the ASVAP, and I go to MEPS in about a month. I have been running in the morning before work (I get up a 4 a.m. for that). I do push-ups when I get bored and before and after I run as well. I also do my sit-ups until my stomach burns. I am used to getting exhausted at my marital arts classes, my shirfu is a Vietnam Vet and loves to pick on me, slams me, demonstrates full force on me, runs me, drills me, breaks me down. I got my motivation to join the Marines because of him. With all that being said, I am 19, 6′7″, and just barely over the minimum weight limit. I can’t seem to put on the pounds though… I guess part of that comes from the fact that me and my family are broke as shit and I can’t eat all that I need to. It’s hard to gain weight and recharge your muscles on rice beans and a little bit of chicken once, maybe twice a day. I work all day and go to school from my scholarships at night, sleep eat, repeat. Everyday. I feel like I am already on a military schedule as it is, but I know for a fact that I will get my ass handed to me on a platter in Marine boot camp. I just want to be prepared… so could a few Marines give me an example of a good work out regiment I could do before I go?
I have no support from my family to go into the Marines. My father is constantly trying to talk me out of it, saying I am throwing my life away, that I am willingly signing myself to a meat machine that is the Marine Core. My grandmother disapproves and just frowns and gets sad when it is brought up. My mother is understanding but she doesn’t want me to sign up and led along only to be stuck with an MOS I don’t want and stuck in a binding contract. I feel like I am looking at bleak opportunities here, and I want to get out, go places, become a Marine, and prepare for my future. But I have doubts on whether or not I am fit enough or cut out for it, with no support it makes it twice as hard.
I need some help from former marines, active duty, etc… Help me out
Best answer:
Answer by Bowen In addition to running and doing sit-ups, start doing a lot of pull-ups as well. You’ll need to be good at all three to get a good score on your PFT’s.
Ignore the nay-sayers around you. Joining the Marine Corps was one of the best decisions I ever made, and I loved my time in the Corps. As far as being cut out for it is concerned, it sounds to me as if you already have the heart and desire necessary. I’m sure you’ll do well.

Question by Mackenzie R: Parakeet Breeding Question!?
I have researched it and understand egg-binding, hand-feeding, and the rest of that stuff. I just got a mating buddy for Angel that’s a year old, and he mounts her from behind on her tail, then puts his leg on her as if he’s kicking her. She lets Angel get close, then kicks him off. Will she give in and let Angel mate her? I really need to know. I’m not treating her as a breeding machine, my friends’ parents’ say that they can have one if they do have babies, and they understand how to take care of them, so I have homes for them. Also, I’m only going to breed them once, maybe (which is most likely a no) twice. The female I named Sunbeam, is tamed, loves her head being scratched and everything. Will Sunbeam let Angel mate her? I understand the breeding and raising the chicks. So will she?
Best answer:
Answer by furious_strength Sorry to tell you hon, but you really shouldn’t be breeding her. Breeding any animal requires a very specific process including genetic testing. Did you know there are hereditary diseases that Parakeets pass to each other? And unless you test both animals for these diseases the chances of the disease passing on to the babies sky rockets? The only reason any animal should be breed is to ‘improve’ the breed of animal.
It’s good you have homes for them, but that’s not the issue. There are many birds in rescue shelters that are put to death because there aren’t any homes available. So improperly breeding your animal is taking away those lives. If your friends family wants a bird, they should go and adopt one.
It’s also very possible that your bird wont mate. A lot birds wont breed in captivity and she can be stressed by the presence of another male. Stress in birds can be very dangerous and cause harmful behavioral problems such as feather plucking. Your female could even die.
Not to mention are you really prepared for this responsibility? If something goes wrong, could you handfeed the chicks? This may include handfeeding them every hour around the clock…. Do you know the pros and cons to not only breeding, but handraising, too? Anything from the parents neglecting the chicks, mutilating them, overfeeding them, to burned crop, sour crop, bacterial/fungal infections, slow crop, etc? Do you have the necessary supplies to handfeed in case of such an emergency? Do you have any avian vets or breeders who could help you out in case something goes wrong? Would you have the money for an emergency vet visit? Sorry, I don’t think you are as educated as you you are. From the sound of it, you don’t even have a breeding box.
There is a whole lot more that goes into breeding that just sticking two animals together and having homes selected for the babies. Unless you have a passion for bred husbandry and wanting to improve it, you really should not be breeding them and can in fact do quite a lot of harm. Unless you are prepared to keep both your male and female as pets if they don’t make babies, you should re-home the male. Why not to your friend who wants one? If your female shows to much stress from him repeatedly trying to breed, you should move him to another cage.
