Power Analysis
A statistical test's power is the probability that the test procedure will result in statistical significance. Power is related to the sample size, the size of the type I (alpha) error, the actual size of the effect, and the size of experimental error. All of these must be considered in order to calculate statistical power.

As statistical significance is usually the desired outcome, planning and running a study to achieve a high power is of prime importance to the researcher. Because of the complexity of the calculations, the determination of the power is often ignored or only a casual attempt is made at its calculation by adopting some, so-called, "rule-of-thumb."

PASS Beats the Competition!
PASS performs power analysis and calculates sample sizes. Use it before you begin a study to calculate an appropriate sample size (it meets the requirements of government agencies that demand technical justification of the sample size you have used). Use it after a study to determine if your sample size was large enough.

PASS lets you solve for power, sample size, effect size, and alpha level. It automatically displays charts and graphs along with numeric tables and text summaries in a portable format that is cut and paste compatible with all word processors so you can easily include the results in your proposal.

David Dreman has written one of those rare, original books on the market that appear every generation or so. Powerful, profound, and extremely well documented, it provides totally new strategies for investing in the 1990s and beyond.

There are relatively few good money managers or good writers on investment. David Dreman is both. This is a great book for all investors, laymen and professionals alike.

David Dreman's name is synonymous with the term "contrarian investing," and his contrarian strategies have been proven winners year after year. His techniques have spawned countless imitators, most of whom pay lip service to the buzzword "contrarian," but few can match his performance. His Kemper-Dreman High Return Fund has been the leader since its inception in 1988 -- the number one equity-income fund among all 208 ranked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. Dreman is also one of a handful of money managers whose clients have beaten the runaway market over the past five, ten, and fifteen years. Now, as the longest bull market in the history of the stock market winds down, there is increasing volatility and a great deal of uncertainty. This is the climate that tests the mettle of the pros, the worries of the average investor, and the success of David Dreman's brilliant new strategies for the next millennium. "Contrarian Investment Strategies: The Next Generation" shows investors how to outperform professional money managers and profit from potential Wall Street panics -- all in Dreman's trademark style, which "The New York Times" calls "witty and clear as a silver bell." Dreman reveals a proven, systematic, and safe way to beat the market by buying stocks of good companies when they are currently out of favor. At the heart of his book is a fundamental psychological insight: investors overreact. Dreman demonstrates how investors consistently overvalue the so-called "best" stocks and undervalue the so-called "worst" stocks, and how earnings and other surprises affect the best and worst stocks in opposite ways.

HDDlife for Notebooks is the first product that takes into account all the peculiarities of the work of a computer. In notebooks, hard disks are in absolutely different conditions if compared with desktop computers. They suffer from constant shaking, strokes, vibration and higher temperature overheat. That is why any program designed for standard conditions will consider the condition of the disk alarming and give you incorrect information. HDDlife for Notebooks takes into account all the peculiarities of hard disks that work in notebooks and provides you with correct information about hard disk health and performance. We should particularly mention that our program can detect different power schemes. It means that if the hard disk is in hibernation mode, the program will not disturb it. So the power scheme is not broken. It helps to increase the performance of the notebook considerably without reducing the reliability of monitoring. What's new: On-line hard drive stats collection: If enabled, HDDlife sends small information packet about hard drive attributes changes. By default this mode is enabled, if you want to disable it - use menu File-Options-HDD Statistics.

Bugs fixed: + On-line statistical database for hard drive attribute changes. + New languages added. * Win2k - Icons on tab draw incorrectly. Fixed. * Win2k - Options - Warnings - Bindings - circles without alpha channel. Fixed * Win2k - on tab hard drive and shield shows with white background. Fixed. * Win2k - Options - Tray Icon - screenshots with error. Fixed. * If hard drive S.M.A.R.T. data can’t be accessed, in system tray shows temperature 255°C. Fixed.

The Handbook for Statistical Genetics is widely regarded as the reference work in the field. However, the field has developed considerably over the past three years. In particular the modeling of genetic networks has advanced considerably via the evolution of microarray analysis. As a consequence the 3rd edition of the handbook contains a much expanded section on Network Modeling, including 5 new chapters covering metabolic networks, graphical modeling and inference and simulation of pedigrees and genealogies. Other chapters new to the 3rd edition include Human Population Genetics, Genome-wide Association Studies, Family-based Association Studies, Pharmacogenetics, Epigenetics, Ethic and Insurance.

As with the second Edition, the Handbook includes a glossary of terms, acronyms and abbreviations, and features extensive cross-referencing between the chapters, tying the different areas together. With heavy use of up-to-date examples, real-life case studies and references to web-based resources, this continues to be must-have reference in a vital area of research.
