The t-distribution is symmetric and bell-shaped, like the normal distribution, but has heavier tails, meaning that it is more prone to producing values that fall far from its mean.
This makes it useful for understanding the statistical behavior of certain types of ratios of random quantities, in which variation in the denominator is amplified and may produce outlying values when the denominator of the ratio falls close to zero.
The Student's t-distribution is a special case of the generalised hyperbolic distribution.

Bogan Hunters, Series 1 Raw and Uncut
The term bogan () is an Australian and New Zealander slang word.
It can be used to describe a person with a working class background.
Or it can be someone whose speech, clothing, attitude and behaviour display a proud working class attitude.
Sometimes the word can have a negative meaning.
Over the last several decades, the bogan has become a very widespread and well respected group.
There are many local names that describe the same or similar groups of people.
Bogans are often thought to be people who live in the outer suburbs of larger cities.
They are less keen on dental hygiene than others.
They also tend to be anti-authority, proud of their country, have home done tattoos, love classic rock, love Peter Brock, hoon around and drink a lot of alcohol.
A bogan attitude is not pretentious and is very honest.
Some types of clothing are associated with bogans.
These include flannelette shirts, monkey hoodies, Stubbies shorts, King Gee workwear, thongs and Ugg boots.
They also wear jeans and black leggings.
Victorian Bogans typically wear acid wash jeans, ugg boots, and band T-shirts with mullet style haircuts.
In the mid 1990s, New Zealand Bogans were typically dressed in all black.
Super-taper black jeans were fairly standard and black woollen jerseys.
Long fringe or long hair in general was also common.
Bogans typically do not copy middle-class styles of taste, diet, hobbies, fashion and language.
Bogans are sometimes looked down upon by some other groups.
This can make the lives of disadvantaged people much tougher.
Positive use
The term bogan is nowadays used to display a pride in being rough around the edges.
In 2002, Michelle Griffin discussed the fact that ‘bogan’ is no longer being used as an insult.
It is in fact a way to identify with the ‘Aussie’ culture that many Anglo‐Saxon Australian citizens are so proud of.
In the past, bogan was a bad term.
Now many take pride in being called a bogan.
Radio station Triple J held a "National Bogan Day" on 28 June 2002, which they commemorated by playing music by bands such as Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil, Rose Tattoo and AC/DC.
The Kriegsmarine (, War Navy) was the name of the Navy of Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1945.
It replaced the Imperial German Navy of World War I and the inter-war Reichsmarine.
The Kriegsmarine was one of three official branches of the Wehrmacht, the armed forces of Nazi Germany.
The Kriegsmarine was developed during the German naval rearmament of the 1930s.
The Treaty of Versailles had limited the size of the German navy after World War I. It also prevented Germany from building submarines.
But by 1934 Germany had secretly stockpiled most of the parts they needed to construct submarines (called U-boats).
In early 1935 Hitler ordered the U-boats to be built.
In January 1939 Plan Z was ordered, calling for the construction of many naval vessels.
The ships of the Kriegsmarine fought during the Spanish Civil War and World War II.
The commander of the Kriegsmarine was Karl Dönitz.
The Kriegsmarine's most famous ships were the U-boats.
Most of them were built after Plan Z was abandoned at the beginning of World War II.
Wolfpacks were groups of submarines that attacked British convoys.
Most of the attacks were during the first half of the Battle of the Atlantic.
Along with the U-boats, commerce raiders and cruisers were used to disrupt Allied shipping in the early years of the war.
The most famous of these were the heavy cruisers Admiral Graf Spee and Admiral Scheer and the battleship Bismarck.
However, the allied adoption of convoy escorts greatly reduced the danger from commerce raiders.

Statistics uses variables to describe a measurement.
Such a variable is called statistically significant if under a certain status quo assumption, the probability of obtaining its outcome (or a more extreme outcome) is less than a given value.
Statistical significance is hence a way of determining the unlikeliness of an experimental result—when a certain status quo assumption is assumed to be true.
Statistical hypothesis tests are used to check significance.
The concept of statistical significance was originated by Ronald Fisher in his 1925 publication, Statistical Methods for Research Workers, when he developed statistical hypothesis testing (which he described as "tests of significance").
Fisher suggested a probability of one in twenty (0.05 or 5%)—as a convenient cutoff level to reject the null hypothesis.
In their 1933 paper, Jerzy Neyman and Egon Pearson recommended that the significance level (for example 0.05), which they called α, be set before any data collection.
Despite his initial suggestion of 0.05 as a significance level, Fisher did not intend this cutoff value to be fixed.
In his 1956 publication Statistical methods and scientific inference, he recommended that significant levels be set according to specific circumstances.

"Rapunzel" is a German fairy tale.
It was first published in 1812 as part of Grimms' Fairy Tales.
The best known line in the story is "Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair".
The story starts with a lonely couple that wants a child.
They live next to a walled garden that belongs to an evil witch named Dame Gothel.
The wife is pregnant with a girl.
When she gives birth, Dame Gothel takes her newborn and names her Rapunzel.
When Rapunzel turns twelve, she is taken into a tower to be shut out from the world.
One day a prince chances upon Rapunzel and asks her to marry him.
Dame Gothel finds out about the prince who is planning to free Rapunzel, so she cuts Rapunzel's hair off and sends her to a faraway desert.
The following night the prince climbs up the tower only to find Dame Gothel instead of Rapunzel.
Dame Gothel throws the prince out of the tower, leading him to fall on thorny bushes and become blind.
Months later, the prince, who is still blind, finds Rapunzel through her singing.
Rapunzel cries into his arms, and her tears bring back the prince's sight.
The prince takes Rapunzel to his kingdom, where they lived happily ever after.
Teratorns  were a group of very large birds of prey that lived in the Americas from the Miocene to Pleistocene epochs.
They are all extinct now.
So far, at least five species in four genera have been identified:
Teratornithidae are related to New World vultures (Cathartidae, syn.
Vulturidae).
Teratornis merriami.
This is by far the best-known species.
Over a hundred specimens have been found, mostly from La Brea tar pits.
It stood about 75 cm (29.5 in) tall with estimated wingspan of perhaps 3.5 to 3.8 metres (11.5 to 12.5 ft), and weighed about 15 kg (33 lb); making it about a third bigger than extant condors.
It became extinct at the end of the Pleistocene, some 10,000 years ago.
Argentavis magnificens.
A partial skeleton of this enormous teratorn was found from La Pampa, Argentina.
It is the largest flying bird known to have existed.
It is the oldest known teratorn, dating to late Miocene, about 6 to 8 million years ago, and one of the very few teratorn finds in South America.
Initial discovery included portions of the skull, incomplete humerus and several other wing bones.
Even conservative estimates put its wingspan at 6 meters and up (some 20 ft), and it may have been as much as 8 metres (26 ft).
The weight of the bird was estimated to have been around 80 kg (176 lb).

Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs (1984-1987)
During his time as Assistant Secretary, Webb sought to reorganize the Marine Corps.
He was gravely concerned with the disarray the Marines had fallen into post-Vietnam: drug use, racial infighting, and low morale within the Corps left him with the impression it was no longer America's premier fighting force.
