Probability Trivia
Suppose that a family has two children… what is the probability of having two girls if at least one of the children is a girl?
The answer is not 1/2.
Bet On Life
A smart bet for both sides:
Eight months ago doctors told Jon Matthews, 58, of Milton Keynes, Bucks: “Don’t make plans for Christmas.”
But he had already bet £100 that he would survive.
Fixing WordPress RSS
Many have had this problem (or similar), but it was difficult to find an answer, so I’ll post what worked for me.
The problem: when trying to subscribe to my rss feed at http://www.elephantwing.com/blog/feed/ , Google Reader read it in as “(title unknown)”.
My solution: in WordPress settings, I had set my Permalink to “month and name”, but the trailing “/” was causing a problem. I changed it to “custom” and took off the “/” and it works.
If that doesn’t work, good luck with this.
