Internship Opportunity at New York financial weekly
It's not too early for statistically-adept students to think about underpaid, but life-altering, internships for the summer of 2012. In fact, after November 1st it may be too late to apply here at Barron's. This will be the second summer we've offered paid internships, which means that applicants can now poll the hapless folks who interned this past summer. Contact me, Bill Alpert, and

newbie graphics question: Two density plots in same frame ?
I swear I've scoured the help files and several texts before posting what feels like a dumb newbie question. How can I draw two kernel density plots in the same frame ? I have similar variables in two separate data frames, and I would like to show their two histograms/densities in a single picture. Same units, scale, range for both, so I'm simply trying to draw one and then add the

Important note for AGI with PHP newbies
I say this note is important only because I (a AGI PHP newbie) was tormented by this problem for many an hour, even though I'm sure it's documented somewhere or obvious to more experienced users. So as I was experimenting with AGI in PHP scripting I was baffled by why Asterisk was properly receiving AGI commands written to stdout but always returning "510 invalid command" to the

freenode #asterisk IRC channel identd problem
Sorry to ask this question here since it's related to IRC and not Asterisk, but I am having trouble logging into the #asterisk IRC channel on freenode and was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and solved it. So here's the situation: Whenever I try to login to the #asterisk channel I get a message like "you must be identified to login to this channel." So after doing

Summer student internship placement at University of York / YCCSA / SEI (paid)
Dear R-lings, I did not know which list to post to, because it is a studentship so not really a job, so it did not fit the r-sig-jobs list .... and it is about devloping an extension package interfaced with R .... I hope I did not upset anyone. If so apologies. The Centre For Complex systems Analysis at the University of York (YCCSA) in UK in collaboration with Stockholm Environment

Dear R-help, I am using R version 3.4.0 within Windows, and survival 2.41-3. I have fit a Prentice Williams and Peterson-Counting Process model to my data as shown below.

No output/no source tarball produced by 'R CMD build' on Windows (but ret code is 0)
Hi, After updating R-2.12 on the Bioconductor build system about 1 week ago (we update R every 4-6 weeks for our devel builds), we've started to see something never seen before on Windows: for some BioC packages, 'R CMD build' would produce no output at all (0 byte) and, of course, no source tarball. Even though, the code returned by the command is 0! See an example of this is here:

Help understanding why glm and lrm.fit runs with my data, but lrm does not
Fixed 'maxiter' in the help file. Thanks. Please give the original source of that dataset. That dataset is a tiny sample of GUSTO-I and not large enough to fit this model very reliably. A nomogram using the full dataset (not publicly available to my knowledge) is already available in http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/tmp/bbr.pdf Use lrm, not lrm.fit for this. Adding maxit=20 will

very minor Rgui problem in rw0641 (PR#204)
In Rgui (rw0641) the dialog boxes opened by Help->R(standard interface) and Help->Apropos have to be closed by actually clicking on OK, rather than by hitting return. (Once I'm at the keyboard typing in the search term, return is more natural than going back to the mouse. But maybe I'm just old-fashioned.) Is it OK to mention two bugs in one report? After using

Some time soon versions of ESS (5.1.3 has a `somewhat rough' |prototype for rw0632) will come with support for this version of R.
