What does English have to do with statistics? :rolleyes: Incredible it dosent surprise me that a far left guy like you is racist. No one the Democrats never get that far |

the Whitehouse, the civilian masters of the military, have to sell their side. whoopty frikken doo. it's called a command structure. during a time of an unpopular war. they gotta sell it. this is not Soviet Union.
Gen. Bergner is a glorified PAO. there's really not much to it. |
If the war is unpopular, why the are we fighting it? WOrld War II had a noble cause. Nations were being occupied by a totalitarian alliance which had to be confronted. The War in Iraq? Hardly a noble cause...
I guarantee you, if there was a draft for this horrible war, we'de be out of Iraq already. It seems that many people just don't care unless they are directly affected. You can be sure this countries 50/50 split over this war will be broken if there is a draft, and it'll be against the war. |

I'm assuming that you taught here in the U.S. If I'm wrong I apologize for that assumption. But if you are teaching here in the U.S. speaking English is pretty necessary in order to successfully communicate with your students, especially in the language of statistics.
So again, can you tell me which school you've taught as well as a few faculty members on your staff?

You really do need to support your silly slander a bit better. Then again, slander never needs support.
So I guess we should just add this to your prior slanders and homophobic remarks, shouldn't we? And of course we mustn't forget your absolute inability or willingness to support any of your asinine assertions in the past.
Hmm, hardly worthy characteristics of a good teacher, but I'll wait for evidence from you to prove me wrong.

Oh, you don't need to try and label something like that on the Democrats to which the GOP owns so well:

| He's a troll. You can't reason with him. Either Latinlover is a prank, someone with a motive, or really is one stupid bloke. I really can't believe I'm only 1 year older than this child..:nervous: |

Oh I know. It's silly futility to have a rational debate of any kind with him. It's pretty much a time-filler for me now - his baseless assertions rarely need any deconstruction from anyone since there's no substance at all, but since we allow thrice-banned jokes like him to remain I see no reason why I shouldn't continue to toy with him.
And I also know he's no reflection on Conservatives and/or Republicans in general. I know many who I respect and appreciate despite our differences of opinion. Some of the more hard-lined Bush supporters like Q I can even respect on certain grounds. So this is purely an individual basis that I play with Latin on, and will remain that way from here on out. |

Sure thing, he's the only name on my ignore list. IQ's below 70 usually make it..:rolleyes: |

Psychological Operations (PSYOP, PSYOPS) are techniques used by military and police forces to influence a target audience's emotions, motives, objective reasoning, and behavior. Target audiences can be governments, organizations, groups, and individuals, and are used in order to induce confessions, or reinforce attitudes and behaviors favorable to the originator's objectives. These are sometimes combined with black operations or false flag tactics.
This concept has been used by military institutions throughout history, but it is only since the twentieth century that it has been accorded the organizational and professional status it enjoys now.

I bet you Latin's one of these guys:stongue: :stongue: |
LOL
That thought definitely crossed my mind, especially in consideration of our current political climate and the way that they seem to be quickly ratcheting up our Orwellian surveillance/police state. |

Listen, you can never know with 100% certainly who is on the other side of the screen when it comes to the internet. But all his rants and rhetoric is synonymous with far right propaganda.. Especially when its nothing but rhetoric and rants without debate. Propaganda doesn't debate. |

A war has to be popular for the US to fight. The whole world has to approve it and has to give us permission for us to fight a war.
I mean dont even talk about WWII cause certainly you dont understand and never will understand it. The world found out about Germanys crimes of humanity before or after WWII? :rolleyes: |

Yeah! I just know how to write in English but I do not know how to speak it :rolleyes: So I teach my classes in German :rolleyes:
Language of statistics? Haven't you learned that mathematics is basically a universal language. Mathematics dosent speak a certain language. To make it easier for you how much is 2 X 2 in English? How much is 2 X 2 in Spanish? How much is 2 X 2 in Italian? To give you a hint the answer ends with a number ;) |

One can easily conclude based on your past posts that you've done quite a disservice to the English language.

You don't have to make it easier for me. But your simplicity of teaching statistics via speaking "a universal language" does not entail you to be a teacher at a school where proper communication of such concepts in statistics are quite difficult to convey to anyone. But let's just make sure you really are a teacher - what were the minimum English standards of your university or school to teach your given course? The reason why I ask is because I was a teaching assistant for a year myself in grad. school, and there was a minimum standard for English skills regardless of the subject you taught. This standard was applied for individuals such as yourself where English was a second language.
So could you tell us the name of that test, as well as the name of the school or university they allowed a 19-year old to teach statistics at? Could you also name a few folks who are on your faculty as well? And lastly, why do you continue to dodge these questions?
Finally, I'd like to lob a softball - what is the best test to determine the differences between more than 1 independ. variable but with no repeated measures? IOW, to determine the impact of more than 1 independ. variable on a depend. variable? I'm sure you'll know, but let's see if we can at least get this far. |
