Is it right to understand that simple random sampling can be with or without replacement, but that the observations are only independent with replacement?

I have 2 statements in my textbook...

a) If the unit is not replaced this is sampling without replacement and this is simple random sampling.

b) Take a sample of n independent observations (sampling should be with replacement to ensure independence).

Does this mean that the lottery,which is a simple random sample without replacement, is a simple random sample, but the observations are not independent?

I'm circumcised and I'm interesting in "Foreskin restoration"

I've been reading in this web, someone talking about a homemade way... "I have been experimenting with something with the same effect. I fashion a plastic glans shield from a corner of a very lightweight plastic bag (like a cheap sandwich bag) and use a loose fitting rubber band that fits in the grove to hold it in place". Maybe my english is not enought to understand what is "plastic glans shield", could someone send me a picture of this (elmegapeluco@hotmail.com) or at least explaining to me with other words?. -> I was circumcised by a medical mistake.

I was jut wondering how people who are clinically obese celebrate and enourage their size?
Alot of the BBW websites show women who are proud to be obese and I can't help thinking this is just as damaging as th pro-annorexia sites people campaign to close down.
Understand that when I use the term obese I don't mean women who are average (E.g size 16)
I mean women who are over size 20, whose weight actually affects their health.
Now I agree that a woman shouldn't have to lose weight to make her man happy or to fit in, but going to the opposite extreme seem crazy.
There's a balance of respect, while I don't think I have to starve mysef into a size 0, I recognise the importance of being healthy, I'm not about to let myself get excessivley overweight.
Any obese person who says they are healthy must be kidding themselves and while we slate skinny celebrities no one seems to have the same opinion of the women who are proud to be obese, this has to be just as bad.
What do you think?

for example:
...that a judge and jury will be fair?
...that that semi will stop for the red light as you cross the street? (yes it WILL!)
...that political and religious leaders have the best interests of their followers truly at heart?
...that hard work will eventually be recognized and rewarded?
...that man is good?




are you usually right? have you ever been proven wrong?

I have this person in my life who sends signals that she really does not like me. She doesn't really say why but I think she is holding a grude over me. I know why she may feel anger but I have tried very hard to make her see things differenttly and I still feel the weight of her judgement by the way she treats me.. She is a Christian and this thing I did has absolutly nothing to do with her at all. My ex came to me during a weak time in my life and I gave in to a realationship with him that I knew was wrong and it lasted about 5 months but after that I brought closure to the realtionship and got my life on track. That was almost 4 years ago and other than that I have remained a comitted Christian. I was vulnerable to my ex because we were married and have kids. He is remarried and that is where I messed up. He was the one who came to me and said he was not happy. I gave in and now she will never let me live it down. Am I branded for life?

Should I extend her personal time to 1 full hour? I just don't want to let the extra 1/2 to go to her head. She needs to work harder as it is. I mean she has been slipping a little in her duties of giving me my back and foot massages, when I get done golfing, and I am thinking that the extra 1/2 to herself my detract further from her female purpose in life. Thank you...

Not a question of morale here, i just feel that is time after so many months together. She (23) lives in New York and I (17) live in New Jersey. I want to have sex with her, but want to know if that can result in any problems for her. I have read the age in NJ is 16, but since we would do it in NY the age there is 17, so what is it? are we good to go?

I just started dating this new guy and he asked me if I was dating someone other than him. I told him yes and I have been dating the other guy for about a month. Do you think that was a bad Idea?

He is a cool guy and I wanted to be honest. Do you think that shows a guy that you are not really looking for a serious relationship and you just want to have "friends"?

One of my husband's jealous employees decided to send me a letter in the mail that was meant to destroy our relationship. They didn't sign it, and we're trying to find out who did it for sure. We have our suspicions. Anyway this letter was very upsetting and graphic and a big lie! I am soooo angry. What can we do????
