My la-z-boy recliner squeaks when rocking. It appears to come from the 4 big springs in the rocking mechanism. I applied some wd40 to the springs, but it didn't fix the problem. Any suggestions?

'internet news', 'blogs' and other news . Do you realize that because of the internet, there are countless unreliable 'news stories' exposed to you EVERYDAY?. EVERYDAY!. We didn't have to fight that. Our news wasn't perfect, but far more accurate, and we could check the sources many times.

My husband and I have a card night every weekend on Saturday. We have some friends come over and every card night we play a lot of games but then we play them all and we need some new ideas. We play Blind Baseball, Queens and what Follows, Five Card Draw, Seven Card Stud, Texas Hold Em', 2 Card Guts, Herbie, In Between, and a couple more I can't think of. If you have any ideas or links please provide them!

I have 4 cups side by side marked A, B, C and D. Each cup holds 4 identical marbles... 1 red and 3 blue. If I randomly select 1 marble from each cup what is the probability of picking out:
(a) at least 2 red marbles?
(b) at least 3 red marbles?

I am able to determine the probability of 0 red marbles (0.3164) , at least 1 red marble (0.6836) and 4 red marbles (0.0039) but have trouble in determining (a) and (b) listed above.

As a starting point I initially thought the answer for (a) lay with the probability of a red marble for Cup A (0.25) * at least 1 red marble for Cups B,C and D (0.5781)...which gives 0.1445. It seems overly simplistic to multiply this figure x 4 (for each cup) to give a total probability of 0.578 for at least 2 red marbles. This answer seems much too high.... given that at the probability of at least 1 red marble is 0.6836.

All help appreciated, especially the workings of how the answers to (a) and (b) are derived.

I don't think he is a great coach or anything. I don't doubt that he has decent coaching abilities but he never controlled Lebron's playing time and everytime he says he does he never does. (except in the preseason) You don't want to let Lebron overdo it. His will to win and love of the game will eventually take a toll on his body, and he needs someone to understand his limits. Lebron's abilities make Mike Brown seem like a better coach than he is in my opinion. Of course, if I were a Cavaliers manager I'd figure we are winning so it doesn't matter. I just feel like the Cavaliers could use a more powerful influential coach... Unfortunately I don't think there are any right now availible. That's just my opinion though, let me know yours.

Okay, so I used the product and now my face is so dry it's flaking and it burns. It made my acne go away, but it also seriously dried out the rest of my face. What can I do to make my face feel better? And should I continue to use the product for another week to see if the dryness goes away as I was advised?

When / where would you go - but - consider it only a one way ride. Consider the span of your life you have left in your answer and what else would be happening while you lived out your life.

I would go to the mid 1940s in USA to see Jackie Robinson break into the big leagues, to see the ***** leagues, just a lot of cool baseball history in the making. I also love the 20's, but I wouldn't want to have to live through the great depression, so I chose the 40's. There would be enough modern amenities, and I'd miss some of the worst times of US history like the wars.
