The paper “Cigarette Tar Yields in Relation to Mortality from Lung Cancer in the Cancer Prevention Study II Prospective Cohort “ (British Medical Journal [2004]: 72-79) included the accompanying data on the tar level of cigarettes smoked for a sample of male smokers who subsequently died of lung cancer.

Tar Level Frequency
0-7mg 103
8-14 mg 378
15-21 mg 563
≥ 22 mg 150

Assume it is reasonable to regard the sample as representative of male smokers who die of lung cancer. Is there convincing evidence that the proportion of male smoker long cancer death is not the same for the four given tar level categories?

You are the senior system administrator in your company and are known for your Active Directory expertise. Your specialty is Group Policy Objects (GPO) and tracking changes. Your boss tells everyone about a tool developed by Microsoft called “Policy Analyzer” for tracking changes and troubleshooting GPO. He would like you to conduct a “lunch and learn” about Policy Analyzer for your Windows Administration Team. You realize that the product’s name has been changed to “Microsoft Security Configuration Toolkit”. Diplomatically conduct the lunch and learn and discuss the history of the tool, the name change, the features of the product and the benefits to your Windows Administration team in managing GPO.

A minimum of two references is required one of which can be your textbook.
