Identify a conjugate prior distribution for θ and give a step-by-step mathematical derivation of the posterior distribution. The answer should be a distribution, such as θ ∼ Beta(Y2; 1). Solution: The likelihood is n n Y Y ai A p(Y1; :::; Ynjθ) = f(Yijθ) / θ exp(−Yiθ) / θ exp(−Bθ): i=1 i=1 Pn Pn where A = i=1 ai and B = i=1 Yi. This is the kernel of a gamma PDF and so the conjugate prior is θ ∼ Gamma(c; d). The posterior is then A c−1 A+c−1 p(θjY1; :::; Yn) / [θ exp(−Bθ)][θ exp(−dθ)] / θ exp(−(B + d)θ) Pn Pn and therefore the posterior is Gamma(c + i=1 ai; d + i=1 Yi) a 1 θ i ai−1 That is, the PDF of Yi is y exp(−θyi).

Your company has purchased a new machine, generated 10; 000 parts, and tested each to determine if it is defective. You are now tasked with testing the null hypothesis that θ ≤ 0:001 versus the alternative hypothesis that θ > 0:001.

Abrams [Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Temple University Press 1998] xi / 226 pages ISBN: 1-56639-599-2 In spite of the greater popularity of football and basketball, baseball remains the sport of greatest interest to writers, artists, and historians. The same appears to be true for law professors as well. Recent years have seen the publication Spencer Waller, Neil Cohen, & Paul Finkelman's, Baseball and the American Legal Mind (1995) and G. Ed- ward White's, Creating the National Pastime: Baseball Transforms Itself, 1903-1953 (1996). Now noted labor law expert and Rutgers-Newark Law School Dean Roger Abrams has entered the field with Legal Bases: Baseball and the Law. Unlike the Waller, Cohen, Finkelman anthology of documents and White's history, Abrams does not attempt the survey the full range of intersections between the baseball industry and the legal system. In- stead, he focuses upon the history of labor-management relations.

  • Hidden Treasure
    Longtime owner Anthony Antonelli. 56 RHODE ISLAND MONTHLY l FEBRUARY 2013 : TREASURE HIDDEN A holdout in the jewelry business that’s still going strong, Wolf E. Myrow’s beads and baubles have inspired generations of artists and jewelry designers. By Paul E. Kandarian I Photographs by Michael Cevoli RHODE ISLAND MONTHLY l FEBRUARY 2013 57 Anthony Antonelli doesn’t know how much inventory he has. But he knows exactly where all of it is. NeedA a little plastic Texas flag? He’ll find it. A tiny, pipe-smoking walrus? Not a problem. All manner of beads, baubles, buckles, bows and stones of every conceivable shape, color and size? Give him a minute, he’ll put his finger on whatever you need. Antonelli, his wife, Irene, and their two grown children, Tony and Robin, are the lifeblood of their company, Wolf E. Myrow, which for more than sixty years has been a huge presence in the jewelry-fitting industry, those little doodads that are the embryos of future bracelets, earrings, necklaces, artwork and everything in between. Ask what each does, they’ll smile and say, “whatever needs to be done.” Their business, known on the Internet as Closeout Jewelry Findings, is located in ancient buildings that once were Atlantic Mills on Providence’s Aleppo Street, a company that pro- cessed wool for Union soldier uniforms in the Civil War. All around are shelves crowded with well-worn boxes; attached to the outside of each is a sample of the contents within. In the massive warehouse just beyond are rooms of tall metal shelves heavy with boxes, manna from heaven for jewelry makers and artists who make their way here from around the world in search of goods and, more often than not, inspiration for what to create from them.

  • Torre (MLB) Testimony
    Office of the Commissioner MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL STATEMENT OF JOE TORRE, EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT OF MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL, BEFORE THE SENATE COMMERCE, SCIENCE, AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE DECEMBER 2, 2014 Chairman Rockefeller, Senator Thune, and members of the Committee, I am Joe Torre, Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations for Major League Baseball. On behalf of Major League Baseball, I thank you for the opportunity to discuss the efforts that we are undertaking to address the issues of domestic violence and sexual assault. The subject matter of this hearing is personally important to me. As a person whose childhood was touched by domestic violence, I have come to understand that discussing the issue publicly has the potential to help millions of victims who believe that they must suffer in silence. In 2002, my wife Ali and I formed the “Safe at Home” Foundation to create educational programs aimed at ending the cycle of domestic violence. I consider it one of my proudest accomplishments in my career. Through my work in this area, including co-chairing the Attorney General’s Task Force on Children Exposed to Violence, I have had the opportunity to work with some truly outstanding individuals who have devoted their lives to working toward solving the issue of domestic violence in this country. Commissioner Selig has instilled in our sport the understanding that Major League Baseball is a social institution, and as our national pastime, has an obligation to set a positive example. The Commissioner and I deplore domestic violence and crimes against women and families.
