We want to know the mean winning score at the US Open golf championship. An internet search gives us all the scores for the history of that tournament, and we create a 95% confidence interval based on a t-distribution. This procedure was not appropriate. Why?
◦ Tiger Woods' recent record-setting score is probably an outlier.
◦ The entire population of scores was gathered so there is no reason to do inference.
◦ Since these are the best players in the world, the scores are probably skewed.
◦ In big golf tournaments the players are not randomly selected.
◦ The population standard deviation is known, so we should have used a z-model.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
