A psychic network received telephone calls last year from over 1.5 million people. A recent article attempts to shed some light onto the credibility of the psychic network.
 
  One of the psychic networks psychics agreed to take part in the following experiment. Five different cards are shuffled, and one is chosen at random. The psychic will then try to identify which card was drawn without seeing it. Assume that the experiment was repeated 45 times and that the results of any two experiments are independent of one another. If we assume that the psychic is a fake (i.e., they are merely guessing at the cards and have no psychic powers), how many of the 45 cards do we expect the psychic to guess correctly? A) 9 B) 8 C) 0 D) 5

Question 2

  A) -1.34 B) -1.39 C) -1.26 D) -1.45

Pink eye is a term that refers to conjunctivitis, which is inflammation of the thin, clear membrane (conjunctiva) over the white part of the eye (sclera). It may be triggered by a virus, bacteria, or foreign body in the eye. Antibiotic eye drops alleviate bacterial conjunctivitis, and antihistamine allergy pills or eye drops help control allergic conjunctivitis symptoms.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia. Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made. The mixture of cocaine, saliva, and resin numbed the site enough to allow hours of drilling.
