  • Why is Yahoo! shutting down Yahoo! answers?

    Plenty of people are still using the website to get helpful information and answer tough questions.  Why does Yahoo! want to get rid of that? Where else should I go for this?

  • Probability of drawing a card.?

    Hi,

    My friends and I have no idea on how to do probabilities and came up with a problem to solve (and I'd like to be the first).

    The problem is if there are 5 cards and you would like to draw one of 4 of them (So, one draw is a 4/5 chance of getting a desired card) a total of 4 times and you have 12 trials, what is the likelihood of this occurring?

    Also, if a general answer where there are Y cards and you'd like to draw one of X, Z times in W trials, what is the likelihood of occurrence?

    Thank you much!

  • Can "colored girl" be used as a slang term for a prostitute or whore?

    Just curious as to what the different slang terms for a prostitute are, specifically if "colored girl" is one. I ask this because I always figured the "coloured girls" in Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side" were supposed to be whores. I thought I'd check with the internet to be sure. Feel free to share some other uncommonly used slang terms as well.
