Support whenever invited to a party, the probability that person arrives with a guest is 1/3, arrives alone is 1/3, and doesn't attend is 1/3. If the company invites all of its 300 employees and their guests, what is the probability that at least 320 arrives?

I was reading an article about a cat in the US that predicts predicts people's death and sits on their bed in the hospital just before they die - http://au.news.yahoo.com/070726/2/141yk.html
and also seen medical dogs who can 'predict' seizures in patients with epilepsy or diabetic complications.

Is it that they really have premonitions or are just soneone in tune with messages that the body sends out when something is going badly?

Also...is a premonition not really a 'vision', but an ability to tune into messages that the universe/people are sending out?

Yeah so,

1. What really is the state of plasma (like what's happening)
2. Is lightning in general (the whole) considered plasma? Or is it the ones that are found in lightning that are considered plasma. Or maybe even those that are found right before or after lightning is formed?

Can any arthropod be considered even slightly intelligent? I mean intelligent like being able to solve problems or being able to complete simple tasks.

Knowing that evolution is a weak, flimsy, THEORY (its not a fact, its a theory, people), what do you think about CREATIONISM?

Watch this and see if you can refute it:

This question is for any mathematician who is some what like Einstein in skill. So mathematicians were you natural at math more than the average person. Or did you practice every day to be great at math like Einstein. Also if a average person is really enthusiastic about learning math then would you say that they could be as you are in the mathematics department. Thank you for any good answers that you may give.

The common definition (e.g.: Wikipedia) is that: mech eq is achieved when net force and net torque on EACH PARTICLE of the system is zero. My question is: why is a ball spinning at constant angular velocity and zero translational motion at mech eq?

At first it makes sense, since translation velocity and angular velocity are both constant (hence net force and torque are zero). But the definition says that EVERY PARTICLE of the system must have zero translational and angular acceleration. If we consider the particles off the centre of the ball, they are actually accelerating centripetally as the ball spins, even though their speed is constant; these particles are therefore not in equilibium. So why do we still say that the ball itself is at equilibrium?

Is the issue here just a case of simplifying the ball into a single indivisible body?

I came across the following question on an IQ test, the answer to which I was left guessing on, after several minutes trying to solve it (non-mathematically):

Water is dripping into an empty glass. Each minute, the number of drops doubles. The glass is full in one hour. How many minutes does it take to fill the glass up to half?

a. 30 minutes
b. 40 minutes
c. 59 minutes
d. 1 minute
e. 23 minutes

It cost billions to build...but it's on Mars!

On the other hand, it could discover information of massive importance. Any economists want to take a stab at this one?

I hope that this makes sense.

Let's say you have 79 compleated downloads and only 9 comments. What is the ratio and how do you figure it out?

Thanks!
