15 year old African American male presents with his mother to the ER where you are the physician assistant helping the ER attending in a very busy rural hospital. He is complaining of abdominal pain for one day and nausea with vomiting. His mother reports a fever and malaise. He has no significant medical history but his mother is concerned that he may have the "kissing disease" as he has a boy friend who had mononucleosis six months ago and she does not approve of him anyway. He describes the abdominal pain as sharp and points to his umbilical region. He ranks it 10/10 on a 1-10 scale at its worse and he says it gets worse with sudden movements or if he sits up too quick or laughs. He is not on any medications and his vital signs are normal except for a temperature of 101 degrees fahrenheit. On examination he looks sick and his skin is clammy to the touch. Heart and lung examination is unremarkable. Abdominal examination shows good bowel sounds and umbilical tenderness and tenderness in the right lower quadrant. When you press down firmly on the RLQ while he takes in a deep breath, he stops breathing to yell out. He also shows tenderness when palpated at the RLQ deeply at release to the area. He has pain with right leg raising and is in much pain when asked to stand and do a heel click where he stands on his toes then comes down hard on his feet. Also when asked to do a jump he complains of extreme abdominal pain. Rectal examination yields normal stool and no blood on guac card test. His labs ordered show a WBC of 18,000 with normal RBC and normal electrolytes and kidney function. His ESR is 150 mm/hr and his CRP is 67 mg/L. Urinalysis is also normal for a basic urine dipstick. Abdominal and chest xray are normal and unremarkable. What are the next steps here? What will your diagnosis be and what is the treatment? This is a very common ER presentation and you should know it

Write two classes, ToDoList and Driver

ToDoList should implement the following UML class diagram:

ToDoList
-list:String[]
-size:int
+ToDoList()
+add(String item):void
+remove(String item): boolean
+toString():String

add(String item) should add the item as the last element in the list, updating size.

remove(String item) should remove the item and return true, or, if the item was not in the list, return false.  
To remove the item, check every list element from 0 to size-1, and if that item is equal to the parameter using s1.equalsIgnoreCase(s2), loop from i+1 to size, assigning each element the value of the following element in the list, so list[j-1] = list[j]. The size of the list will be one less.

toString() should return a numbered list, with a "\n" after each list item.

HW22 should run as in the sample run below. Use static methods as needed to input the choice and the list item.

1. add an item

2. remove an item

3. print the list

  • post a novel and appropriate response to the question(s) posed [max score of 10 points]
  • Deadline for initial posts is Friday, Sept 18, at 11 PM.
  • respond in a meaningful way to at least two of your classmates' posts [up to 5 points per response, max of 10 points total]
  • Deadline for responses is Monday, Sept 21, at 11 PM.

Be sure your posts are written in complete, grammatically correct sentences. Be sure to answer all parts of the question.

You recently began tracking your income and expenses. Examine your spending and distinguish between wants and needs.

1) How do you define a financial need? How do you define a want?

2) What are your fixed expenses (expenses that do not fluctuate that you must pay regularly each week, month, quarter, or year)?

3) Which of your budget categories must you provide for first before satisfying others? To what extent is each of your expenses discretionary -- under your control in terms of spending more or less for that item or resource? Give a specific example of a non-discretionary and a discretionary expense.

4) Which of your expenses could you reduce if you had to or wanted to for any reason?

You do not need to disclose the specific dollar value of any of your expenses if you choose not to. Instead, you can discuss your expenses as percentages of your total expenses for the week (or month, if you already follow a written budget and can extrapolate the data). For example: if I spent a total of $100 last week and $25 of that was spent feeding my Dunkin' or Starbucks addiction, then I would represent that as 25% of my tota

he novel corona virus disease (also known as COVID – 19) which started in WUHAN in December 2019 has grounded the global economy to a halt. World crude prices reached their lowest and trade among nations have generally slowed. Production has slowed and jobs are being lost across the globe.
Globally, over seven million people have contracted the virus and over four hundred thousand have died. Ghana announced its first two confirmed cases of COVID – 19 on 12 March, 2020 and as at June 14, 2020, the number of confirmed cases stood at 11,964 with 54 deaths. The impact of the COVID – 19 pandemic on Ghanaian economy and the global economy at large is predicted to be very severe. The government of Ghana, like many other governments, is spending more funds on containing the pandemic and limiting the effect of the pandemic on the economy. The IMF Executive Board approved the disbursement of US$1 billion drawn under the Rapid Credit Facility (RCF) for Ghana on April 13, 2020 after receiving application from the country’s government.
Given this background, briefly discuss the repercussions of the corona virus pandemic for the Ghanaian economy and foreign exchange market. Suggest ways of mitigating the effects of covid – 19 on Ghana’s balance of payments (BOP).

You screen a chemical library to identify novel chemical regulators of the Arp2/3 complex.You will search for three distinct types of chemical regulators, each with one of the following properties:

a. Class A inhibitor that blocks lamellipodia localization of Arp2/3, but retains activity

b. Class B activator that locks the Arp2/3 complex into the inactive conformation

c. Class C inhibitor prevents Arp2/3 binding to nucleators (eg: WASp, WAVE)

Describe a cell-based approach you could use to identify these compounds, and describe how you predict that actin architectures would change upon treatment with each class of inhibitor.
