What statistical test is appropriate?

There are two variables, gender and mood disorder. The genders are, of course, male or female. The mood disorder variable is either present or not-present. Epidemiological data suggests that mood disorders are more prevalent in women than in men. I need to perform a statistical analysis that shows the incidence of mood disorders in men and women, whether the observed relationship between the presence/absence of a mood disorder is statistically significant, and give an estimate of the effect size of the relationship. I have no idea what test is appropriate! Please help!!!!



What statistical test is appropriate?ms stress



Stats with dictomous independent and dependent variables requires a chi-square test. A simple measure of effect size is the Odds Ratio.

Have you noticed they always make Sanjaya perform at the end of the show?

It's their way of getting viewers to watch the whole show. He has never gone 1st or 2nd has he?

LED ZEPPELIN members Reuniting. NO JOKE. this one is for real.?

its all over the interent and i didnt believe it as soon as i heard it on the led-zeppelin.com forums. because you see news for one of these like once every year or so for the pst 5-6 years. however, due to the death of Ahmet Ertegun, they plan to perform a one-off show in London at the O2 millenium dome. U.S dates are questionable still



there is no official announcment and there are different dates all over. some say november 16. robert asnd jimmy have both talked recently saying the guys are ready. and the recent videos of jimmy lat month show a real upspring in his step. something we havent seen for a few years now. he's all smiling and has that old swagger from 20+ years ago.



you can definitley tell something is up. he looks more confident than ever.



its still very hard to belive for the hardcore zep fans. im still very skeptical but there is a lot of proof backing this up. sites all over the internet are already trying to sell reserved tickets to the show.

my dad is friends with a man named wilf or something like that. and wilf told me that they were reuniting. he was their ORIGINAL manager. now he is going back to join them, right after he quits managing korn,



LED ZEPPELIN members Reuniting. NO JOKE. this one is for real.?sunshine opera theater



So they're reuniting. That's great and all, but they're getting old, and they're not making new material. To be honest, the only way I could be excited about a Led Zeppelin reunion is if I actually get to see them play. Unfortunately, one ticket is estimated at sixty pounds, or about $120 dollars, and I'd probably have to go with my dad, which would double the cost, making it $240 dollars, plus we'd have to go to London too.



Although it would be nice to release a DVD of the show so I could see what they'd be like after 27 years.
I heard that they are reuniting for sure. I am really happy about it. This is something that needed to be done.
You know its nice to reflect back with some bands thru their reuniting, but then there are the exceptions. Led Zeppelin is mearly a shadow of what they once were. In their hay day no one could argue that they were undoubtedly one of the most mesmerizing groups of their era; but today, Robert鈥瞫 highs are long gone and Jimmy maybe looking better but it would be simply impossible for him to revert back to the truly flamboyant presence that we true fans grew to love and worship. Bottom line, if I had Bill Gates charge card I鈥瞕 say ...what the hey! let鈥瞫 go reminisce with Zep. in London! But I don鈥瞭, so to this I say....I鈥瞝l just sit at home and reminisce with my copy of ...the song remains the same....Zep. at their best!

Jericho Cancelled ??? WHY???

Im shocked... and cannot believe CBS would cancel Jericho. This has got to be the dumbest move ever made by CBS executives. I honestly have nothing more to say but wow. I would go into detail but I would just be another person stating my two cents that means nothing to CBS. So with that being said I will try my best to stay away from all CBS shows for a while (never was a fan till Jericho anyways). What do you guys all think? I saw that their excuse was they werent performing well, ofcourse, when you give the show a hiatous to stick some of your typical CBS no good shows to gain market share that do nothing and bring back the show expecting it to be as big and bigger.... Just big mistakes all around. nuff said... comments anyone?? I would say some things like buy the dvd support it and try and bring it back but who wants to support networks constant bad decision making let them suffer the losses.



Jericho Cancelled ??? WHY???opera score



Its time for the fans of Jericho to rally and save a really good show.



Jericho is one of the best new shows in a long time. It is one of the few shows on television that our whole family made an effort to get together and watch. It has a very good cast playing very good characters and an exciting story line that keeps you on the edge of your seat. CBS has made a huge mistake by not renewing Jericho. Hopefully CBS will reconsider. If not another network should have the insight to pick up this wonderful show.



Spread the word and lets save Jericho.



Save Jericho Now!

Jericho Cancelled ??? WHY???musicals opera theater



I heard that they weren't canceling the show but that they were moving it to another network
i loved that show. i couldnt believe it either. but no fear, there gonna have BIG BROTHER ON AGAIN. i mean really, who makes those decisions anyway? a 13 year old kid? it was intellegent, and thought provoking. i really want to call someone and ask those questions, but, no one wants to listen to a 36 yo stay at home mom, with a master degree and thats a professional chef. they would rather go for the fluff crapola. anyway, baffles mymind.
i m sorry to letterman but im boycotting the network and sending Nuts to

New york,NY 10019 Just.......... NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
david man i share ur grief..i am extremely disappointed coz jericho really is such a great show..
I also love the show and love the sending nuts ideas. This and Heroes are the only current shows I make sure I see every week. For some more info, addresses, etc. go to http://savejericho.blogspot.com
Way to go CBS! You just got rid of your 1 piece of programming that's actually worth a damn. God forbid we cancel one of the 14 CSI shows to make room for a decent show with a plot. CSI, CSI Miami, CSI NY, NCIS, Criminal Minds, Big Breast Whis.......I mean Ghost Whisperer. They recycle the exact same garbage over and over to try to capitalize off of one decent show, the original CSI. Who works at these networks, monkeys?
I for one cannot understand why CBS made this move. I think it was a well written and very well acted show and honestly it was my favorite. For those of you who were not fans.....(either watched one show or none at all) if you are curious about all the comotion go to cbs.com and watch Jericho for yourself. even if you don't want to see it i hope that you will consider joining us in our efforts to have CBS reconsider their decision. When you are a loyal watcher of a tv show and the network decides with no warning that it is going to cancel the show without giving the viewers any type of conclusion or ending.....for thoes of you who aren't familiar with the show it ended with the start of a war...a gunshot being fired and that's it....it was hard enough having to wait until next season to find out what happened....and now CBS tells us it's done.... over... finished.... basically ...sorry that you wasted hours upon hours of your life to see a story unfold....and not now we just aren't going to have an ending!!! i am sorry but ANY viewer of ANY quality tv show should have a problem with this ... what if that happened to your favorite show......we have to let the networks know that it is not ok to treat loyal viewers this way..........if they really feel that the viewers just don't matter.....then that is a problem for all of us!!!! Please call CBS....email them and if you can send the peanuts.....we the tv viewing public must join together so we show the networks that they need to listen to what we want to see...not just what they want to show.....please just give it some thought!!
I know. It bites. Especially not even being decent enough to at least air the season finale so we could have an ending (the producers of the show have said that they had made the last episode a good wrap up in case they weren't picked up for a second season). Gilmour Girls was brought back when fans protested, so you never know, but you have to remember that every show has some fans, so the networks are used to this type of complaint. It will take an enormous groundswell of support for Jericho to bring it back. I just think they were stupid to put it up against the monolith of American Idol -- no new show can compete with Idol. I think that under the circumstances, Jericho attracted a respectable audience, and who knows -- had they put it in a different time slot, maybe the show would have done great things. I certainly won't be watching the replacement drivel -- a pirate ship? Come on. Jericho and Desperate Housewives were my only "appointment tv shows" (guaranteed to make a point of watching all episodes, schedule it into my week), and Desperate Housewives is getting a little tired. I miss Jericho already... :(

The show had like 6 viewers. You make 7. They had to cancel it.
They didn't do a very good job of portraying Western Kansas. They didn't act like a Kansan or Midwesterner would in a tragic situation. Compare the histrionics shown on Jericho to the survivors of the Greensburg tornado. They didn't cry much and with little drama, they started rebuilding. I am not surprised it is canceled.

I need help with a monologue and a song.?

I have to audition to get into the performing arts academy. I have already done shows there in the past so the know me but we now need to perform a monolouge and 20 measures of a song and I need suggestions. I do not have any idea what monolouge to do. I am a 17 year old girl and I usually sing second soprano and I need a song to show off my range.



Thank you!



I need help with a monologue and a song.?greek theater



Depends on what sort of monologue they require.



I'm assuming you're from the states so my knowledge of suitable monologues for your accent and age is fairly limited. However, do have a look at the character of The Jailers Daughter in Shakespeare's "Two Noble Kinsmen" (act 2 scene 4 "Why should I love this gentleman?...")



Don't be put off by the fact its Shakespeare. Its easier than you think and if you are American your accent is closer to how it should be spoken.



As regards the song they're not my area. But as a suggestion maybe Nancy's song " As Long As He Needs Me" from Oliver by Lionel Bart.



Hope this helps in some way.

I need Brandy's "Have You Ever" and TLC's "Waterfalls". I need the voc

My daughter is performing in her school talent show today and I've had an awful time finding these two songs. Please help me if you can, MP3's are perfect.

I need tips on staying calm when nervous.?concert tickets opera theater



take deep breaths.



some say picture the audience in their underwear but i think thats a little perverted, also i cant do that
Concentrate on your music and ignore the audience entirely. Imagine you're playing to yourself, or to a couple of trusted friends.
Matt has a good idea. Try to control your breathing. Deeply inhale then exhale slowly. Try to do it at the same rhythm. When you do it concentrate on something that you find relaxing - like the beach or a mountain stream or anything where you relax.



Good luck! You will be great!!!
pretend like your at home practicing and no one is watching and if that do sent help just dint look at the crowd so much
flex your belly like you got rocks n you're a superhero. if you can't, keep trying :) i'm not even kidding .. it takes concentration and you'll get frustrated with that instead :X
