    Yes, Dawnstar is where the museum is located. Ok, well thanks for the help anyway. I think my quest is buggy. I read somewhere that others were having the same problem. No worries. Let me ask you this. Was the inside of the ruin the same as I described? Or does it change to something much...

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    I agree with you Radio. Oblivion had something missing that Morrowind had. The breathtaking views of cities like Vivec and Ald Ruhn in Morrowind had me torn between the last two games. I already found two cities that have that amazing WOW factor in this game. I'm level 12 at this moment but...

    what single feature of a cellphone would most impress someone from the 1970s?

    I would say the capacity. Given that along with the calculator, photos, videos, it's like a small computer. And you can store several gigabytes worth of information on it....where back in the 70s that would probably take up an entire building.

    Do you get perforated toilet paper at work?

    You must work on a construction site. Who doesnt take a crap at work otherwise?? That's like a 15 minute break I look forward to every day! Our TP is perferated, but it's doesnt roll smoothly. Everytime I pull, it rips at the first square. Exactly at .......... THE PERFERATED PART...

    Help finding a simple program the organizes your music

    Yeah, but can it actually change the location of the original file? Or better yet, can it change the name of the actual file by renaming it within iTunes? If it can do this, that would be a big help.

    Help finding a simple program the organizes your music

    Does anyone use or know of a good easy program to organize music. I'm not talking about WMP that just creates links to your songs, but something that can actually move the files and edit the names and put them into files based on artist...or something like that. I have a bunch of albums that...

    Shooting at Virginia Tech

    Yep, with 27k people in the area, plus the fact that he walked a mile to get to the ENG building, shows that it was just a matter of who would be his next targets. A crowd of students going home or leaving their classes may have resulted in additional bloodshed. A no-win in this situation. I...

    Please Help with Probabilities Formula for the following problem....

    I'm starting to get it. Basically, the total number of possibilities are 216 (For instance, there's 27 possible ways to roll the number 10) And the total number of unique rolls (without replacement) are 56. (only 6 ways to roll a unique 10) I'm sure someone can rephrase what...

    Please Help with Probabilities Formula for the following problem....

    Ok, I'm sorry about the confusion in the beginning. 112 and 121 shoudnt be counted twice. So 216 isnt correct. I'll take some time and let your formula sink in Haggai. Thanks a lot for the breakdown!

    Please Help with Probabilities Formula for the following problem....

    No, actually a co-worker asked me the original question earlier in the day and I wanted to be able to explain it to her. The second one was asked because that's the way she first presented the question to me. My curiosity was taking over. I took Prob. & Stats years and years ago and remember it...

    Please Help with Probabilities Formula for the following problem....

    So let me ask this then. Lets say there were six 6-sided dice and you can toss any number of dice you want, as long as you tossed at least one. Based on your formula, the amount of possible outcomes would this be.... n=6 (n) + (n1 x n2) + (n1 x n2 x n3) + (n1 x n2 x n3 x n4) + (n1 x n2...

    Please Help with Probabilities Formula for the following problem....

    Ok, nevermind. I figured it out. Every dice increases the power. One die would give you 6 possibilities or 6^1 Two would give you 6^2 and so on...

    Do you have anything I can use to support this? I want to be able to explain it to my friend too.

    Please Help with Probabilities Formula for the following problem....

    Simple....I have three 6-sided dice. I want to know the total number of unique results I can obtain by repeatedly throwing all three dice. 111 112 113 114 115 116 121 etc, etc.... I'm guessing it's 6^3, but can someone confirm and prove this? Thanks for you help! :)

    Help finding a fun game for me and my lady friend

    I'm just tryin to find something fun that me and her can play. I'm thinkin of gettin one of the Mario Party's, but the reviews show that they've gotten worse over the last few years. But i'm lookin for something that's simple for her to play and has good replay value. Just something easy that u...

    Woman drinks so much water she dies

    I thought that the lungs are never really affected as far as water is concerned. For example, when you drown, it's actually your lungs cutting off the passage of air (since there's no air) and thus you suffocating. So either way, drinking too much or drowning, water never really enters the...

    Texas Hold Em Question

    Sounds like they were tryin to pull a fast one on the other one..... I would go to play some games online for play money just to get better customed to the game. Start with 5 card stud. Everything else is based off of that anyway. Oh, and maybe the one with the 9 had a suited hand or...

    How do you start a really good fire in the fireplace with real wood?

    I didnt know that. I've been buring newspapers for a while now. Does the lint burn long enough though?

    What is that little white stuff I always remove from raw eggs??

    I know we all do it. I've seen it done in restaurants when they cook in front of you. But why? I was cooking scrambled eggs the other morning, and asked my "assistant" to help break some eggs for me. Then I told her to make sure she removes that little white stringy looking thing before she...

    How can so many people be so stupid??

    True. If MCD is paying people when they burn their mouths on hot coffee...this should be like taking candy from a baby.

    what would a broadcast from the moon in 2006 be like?

    I did something similar a few years back to my girlfiend who was in her car next to mine. I knew there was a delay (maybe a second at most) so when I talked, I did my best ventriloquist rendition and spoke without my lips moving. Then about two seconds later, I would mouth the same words without...

    Switching contents of two harddrives.

    I have two computers. One old one and one new one. The used space on both hard drives in each of the two computers are about the same. I'm trying to find the simpliest way to swap the contents of the hard drives without having to reinstall a fresh copy of windows or anything like that...
