My mate has a muslim name which she hates cos she doesn't even believe in god. She is so offended that people are always asking is she's a muslim..She's thinking of chnaging her name legally to something that sounds more english or christian and also wants to start wearing a crucifix so people won't think shes 'one of them' ( I quote)..

What do you think? I don't know how to advise her...

I have heard this "cold turkey" wen I was looking for ideas on how to quit smoking.
What is cold turkey? And any suggestions for me to quit smoking please? I prefer suggestions that do not involve nicotine gums or patches or any such tertiary stuff.

I have been smoking for 8yrs now. I smoke 8-10 cigarettes a day. It used to be 10-15 wen I worked night shifts.

I even tried to quit totally once and I went into depression. But then, I had no job either and that was nagging me. But now I have a good job and still can not quit smoking. Everytime I try to reduce, I miraculously meet smoker frnz and start smoking.

But 1 thing is for sure-

I WANT TO QUIT SMOKING.

HELP!!

This is not a cocktail named after the rapper But a fantastic trick to play on friends and foes xx wait for someone to buy a drink (make sure its expensive) and then bet them 50 cents that you can drink the drink without touching the glass or table or by using a straw ???

when they accept simply pick up their drink and start drinking it and hand the victim a 50 cents peice. you lost the bet but you have a cheeap drink xxx

Hi. Any help would be appreciated, here's the question:

You choose 30 from a universe of 60.
Someone else chooses 30 from the same universe.

What are the chances that no element is a member of both sets? Is it the same likelihood that all elements are members of both sets?

Thank you.
