    Chapter 24 Comparing Means 401 Chapter 24 – Comparing Means 1. Dogs and calories. Yes, the 95% confidence interval would contain 0. The high P-value means that we lack µµ− evidence of a difference, so 0 is a possible value for Meat Beef . 2. Dogs and sodium. Yes, the 95% confidence interval would contain 0. The high P-value means that we lack µµ− evidence of a difference, so 0 is a possible value for Meat Beef . 3. Dogs and fat. µµ− a) Plausible values for Meat Beef are all negative, so the mean fat content is probably higher for beef hot dogs. b) The fact that the confidence interval does not contain 0 indicates that the difference is significant. c) The corresponding alpha level is 10%. 4. Washers. µµ− a) Plausible values for Top Front are all negative, so the mean cycle time is probably higher for front loading machines. b) The fact that the confidence interval does not contain 0 indicates that the difference is significant. c) The corresponding alpha level is 2%. 5. Dogs and fat, second helping. a) False. The confidence interval is about means, not about individual hot dogs. b) False. The confidence interval is about means, not about individual hot dogs. c) True. d) False. Confidence intervals based on other samples will also try to estimate the true difference in population means. There’s not reason to expect other samples to conform to this result. e) True. 6. Second load of wash. a) False. The confidence interval is about means, not about individual hot dogs.

  • Pietro Aaron on Musica Plana: a Translation and Commentary on Book I of the Libri Tres De Institutione Harmonica (1516)
    Pietro Aaron on musica plana: A Translation and Commentary on Book I of the Libri tres de institutione harmonica (1516) Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Joseph Bester, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Charles Atkinson Burdette Green Copyright by Matthew Joseph Bester 2013 Abstract Historians of music theory long have recognized the importance of the sixteenth- century Florentine theorist Pietro Aaron for his influential vernacular treatises on practical matters concerning polyphony, most notably his Toscanello in musica (Venice, 1523) and his Trattato della natura et cognitione de tutti gli tuoni di canto figurato (Venice, 1525). Less often discussed is Aaron’s treatment of plainsong, the most complete statement of which occurs in the opening book of his first published treatise, the Libri tres de institutione harmonica (Bologna, 1516). The present dissertation aims to assess and contextualize Aaron’s perspective on the subject with a translation and commentary on the first book of the De institutione harmonica. The extensive commentary endeavors to situate Aaron’s treatment of plainsong more concretely within the history of music theory, with particular focus on some of the most prominent treatises that were circulating in the decades prior to the publication of the De institutione harmonica. This includes works by such well-known theorists as Marchetto da Padova, Johannes Tinctoris, and Franchinus Gaffurius, but equally significant are certain lesser-known practical works on the topic of plainsong from around the turn of the century, some of which are in the vernacular Italian, including Bonaventura da Brescia’s Breviloquium musicale (1497), the anonymous Compendium musices (1499), and the anonymous Quaestiones et solutiones (c.1500).

  • Elly Williams: How Could I Forget the Day My Hero Died
    Part VI The DEATH OF THE PRESIDENT 293 Chapter 24 That Day in Dallas Eleanor Williams Who doesn’t remember that day in Dallas when Jackie stood splattered in blood beside a hearse carrying her husband’s body? That day in Dallas when Jackie in her blood-stained pink suit stood in a crowded Air Force One and watched helplessly as Lyndon B. Johnson took the oath of office? Not one of us will forget Caroline Kennedy in the rotunda, kneeling before her father’s coffin, nor John F. Kennedy, Jr. saluting his father’s casket as his mother held his hand. Not one of us will forget Jacqueline Kennedy sheathed in veils, flanked by her brothers-in law, Bobby and Teddy, reaching out for the American flag that covered her husband’s casket, face tear-streaked. Nor will we forget that the same day she buried her husband, she held a small birthday party for their son, John F. Kennedy, Jr. It was his third birthday. Some images remain in our hearts and minds forever. It doesn’t matter that I was only a little girl in elementary school; it doesn’t matter that my parents voted Republican; nothing mattered but the fact that my forty-seven-year old president was assassinated and later we would all watch his brains spatter over his wife in her hot pink suit, red roses tossed to the floor of the limo, on the Zapruder film, over and over and over again. Dallas. 12:30 p.m. Death. Walter Cronkite wiping away his tears.
