I need to do a presentation on something statistics-related. The requirements for the subject are extraordinarily vague. Any suggestions?
[1] This facsimile operated in part by synAC.Something like How to Lie with Statistics. Published something like 60 years ago, still relevant. And needed.
I could do a test of the statistical likelihood of being arrested for an MIP. >_>
[1] This facsimile operated in part by synAC.Act I, Scene 5. Romeo and Juliet have a shared sonnet. It's the very first lines they say to each other.
ROMEO
If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
JULIET
Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.
ROMEO
Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?
JULIET
Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
ROMEO
O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;
They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.
JULIET
Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.
ROMEO
Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.
Okay, I'm using Matlab and it's residue command for transfer functions. It's spitting them out in pairs, and I know this fits into some sort of formula with sins and cosines, but I can't remember the actual formula. Any one know it?
Fight smart, not fair.I need a short (half a minute to a minute and a half, but I could cut down a longer one) video or sound clip demonstrating sexism/ gender inequality in video games, or the relative absence of women in computer/technology related careers.
It doesn't need to be something I made, just something off youtube.
Thanks!
Also, any Mario/Zelda style "Rescue the helpless princess" games you can think of would be helpful.

These almost certainly aren't what you're after, but they're decently thought out and offer a perspective other than "video games are misogynist"/"no they aren't stfu": [1]

As for games where you have to save the princess, yes, we have that one.
Ughh... so, I found one (shii the female wii) it's about a minute and eighteen seconds long and in german, but it makes plenty of sense. Unfortunately, the school computers are messing with me.
Could some kind, selfless troper imbed it onto the forum, so I might still be able to show it? I would be forever indebted to you.
Alright, so I need to choose a topic for an assignment dueee *looks at clock* 5 hours and 21 20 19 minutes from now. I have to write either an opinion column or an article, about a self-chosen topic related to media (movies, internet, reality tv-shows, almost anything goes really). It should be easy for an internet-addicted person like myself, but I just can't seem to find an interesting topic that hasn't been done a 100 times before. Help pwease?
Write about some Double Standard prevalent in fiction, check the page to find an original one.

The assuming that it has a square base, then the distance from the base edge to the center is nine, from which we can deduce by using the pythagorean theorem that the height is 12. By using a similar method, we deduce that the vertical of the side triangles is also 12. This means that each lateral side has an area of 108, so the lateral area is 432. The Total Area is 756. The volume is Base Area * Height / 3 = 1296. Hope that helps.
The Philosopher-King Paradox

OK serious now. In circle O with radius 12 and the measure of arc AB=90 What is the length of the arc area of sector AOB and area of region bounded by line and arc AB?
