Ours - "elevator button and morning air"

it's one of my feelings. - dominic from Bookmarklet
<3 - Jessie
A marketing firm determined that, of 200 households surveyed, 80 used neither Brand A nor Brand B soap, 60 used only Brand A soap, and for every household that used both brands of soap, 3 used only Brand B soap. How many of the 200 households surveyed used both brands of soap? (A)15 (B)20 (C)30 (D)40 (E)45
anyone can help me? I am not sure if there is an answer in the question. - dominic
I believe the answer is A. 200 - 80 (households that use neither) = 120. 120 - 60 (used only A) = 60. 60/4 (1 for dual users and 3 for B only) = 15. - Soup in a TARDIS
I agree with Soup. - Jimminy
yes, it's the answer. but how did you know " for every household that used both brands of soap, 3 used only Brand B soap" is "1 for dual users and 3 for B only"? did households have four people? - dominic
it's the problem of the question that I misunderstand the sentence, I think. - dominic
You start with a set of 200 people who use soap. 80 don't use either brand. 60 use Brand A. The remaining group of 60 people, either uses Brand B or both Brands A & B. Of the remaining people the ratio is 3(Brand B exclusively) to 1(Brands A&B). So those that use brand B is 3/4 and both is 1/4. - Jimminy
200 = N + A + B + Z; N = 80; A = 60; B = 3Z (where N = neither, A = brand A, B = brand B, Z = both) - Jim Norris
Thank you all. I got it now. I understand the descrpition of the ratio like this. - dominic

Does anybody have an MBA from an American university? Do you have any advice or recommendations? Thanks.
I have several friends that do. I can ask them for you. - Anika
Bump. - Jessie
Is there a special area of concentration you're interested in, Dominic? - Anne Bouey
@Anika, thank you very much. I found some many infomation online about MBA, but I didn't know how to choose or classify. It's not easy for me to apply the best MBA. That's why I may need some infomation here. Thank you again. - dominic
@Anne, yes, I decided to focus on the special area related to finance and economics. - dominic
I think I know one person in that field, most people I know went in for global leadership. <--I should look that up to make sure. I'll see what the econ woman says (I know she has a BA in economics, not sure why she's at AU). I think she's still there. - Anika
I might know someone. I will check. :) - Rachel Lea Fox

the aboriginal song (called Elders Drinking Song) is for drinking (alcohol) originally. the last picture showed the husband, the singer, and his wife, singer,too. The summary of the end of the video is that they met and fell in love with each other because of singing and passed away successively in 2002. - dominic from Bookmarklet
Thanks for the background about this song, Dominic! I think a lot of people know this song but not many know it's from a Taiwanese aboriginal tribe. Very interesting! - Jessie

"這綠島像一隻船..." - Jessie
I never heard of this.....haha - dominic
Green Island used to be famous for its prison, like "Taiwan's Alcatraz." Before it was used mostly for Taiwan's political prisoners, but now the prison is a museum. - dominic
However, I am far away from past time...that's why I can come out of the prison. - dominic
Haha I'm happy you could escape the prison :P - Jessie
Like "prison break"? I like the TV series! - dominic
#namefacts In Chinese, many people have a two-character first name. Some Chinese families like to have all the children in the same generation use the same first character in their first name. So my name, my sister's name and all my cousins' names begin with "子."
I think this character was chosen from "a couplet or my family tree" written by one of my ancestors. I guess! - dominic
That is very cool! - Rachel Lea Fox
If you're able to see the genealogy program "Faces of America", they went to China to do some of Yo-Yo Ma's genealogy and I believe his family used the same naming convention. I can't remember how the character was chosen, I just remember that it was chosen far in advance and dictated to each generation. http://www.pbs.org/wnet... - Spidra Webster
So it's really one of Chinese old style or Chinese old tradition. - dominic
My English name is Dominic because my Chinese names has a "duh" sound in it. My mother said I could be either "Dominic" or "Douglas." I didn't want to be called "Douglas" because it sounds like "dog." That's why Dominic is here. #namefacts
I like the name Dominic (or Dominick). I've seriously considered that as a possible name for a future son. I'll have to ask Harold what he thinks of it. - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)

does it really save more space? or just "cool"? XD - dominic from Bookmarklet
It really does save more space. The amount saved by a single bike is minimal but the amount saved by a full "trees" worth built into a circle (I'm thinking footprint wise) is significant. Vertical hangs lose major points from me for their sheer unwieldiness however. We have them in my building (in a row formation, not a tree) and its just a huge pain in the butt getting bikes on and off the rack. - Soup in a TARDIS
Because they are vertical, not horizontal there should be some space saving but it probably is much more secure. - Brian Sullivan
thank you. you both are professional! - dominic
