Design the following GUI by using swing components:

Can you think of changing the Hi positions in an horizontal line every two seconds? Write a program that will allow you to change the sentence position horizontally for every 2 seconds. That is, after another 2 seconds, the Hi position should be changed to the following:

This is JAVA please.

the program is the word HI that automatically scrolls accros the screen until the end and then comes back on the left the next line down. and keeps scrolling like that..

Hi

this question I will cancel because I dont need it now Thanks for your response. I will be posting the actual question in about 20 minutes

Your consulting company is now working with another company that would like to expand its business into other countries. You have been asked to provide a comparison of the different economic systems and how the company would need to operate in each country.

Select two countries and write a 525- to 700-word paper in which you:

• Compare the economic systems of the two countries and their impact on business growth/development.
• Identify the major economic/political systems of each country.
• Discuss which major economic/political system the United States uses and why.
• Discuss the problems a business may encounter when operating in each country’s economic systems.

The Cradle to Cradle (C2C) concept is a system of thinking based on the belief that industry can be transformed into a sustaining enterprise—one that creates economic, ecological, and social value— through thoughtful and intentional design that mirrors the safe, regenerative productivity of nature and eliminates the concept of waste.

Write a 300-word essay discussing whether you think this concept has business value.  

following criteria:

• will demonstrate understanding of the Cradle to Cradle concept along with appropriate and accurate use of terminology from the book by Michael Braungart and William McDonough.
• will demonstrate critical thinking by using logic, evidence (at least one example) and well-reasoned argument.  
• The essay will be written in appropriate, standard written English.

CASE STUDY A 32 year-old mother presents at her GP clinic and is concerned about a painful right breast. Her baby has been breast feeding since birth and is now 3 months old. She describes episodes of night chills and fever during the last few days. She is run down, tired and exhausted. She is finding it difficult to care for her baby. Upon examination her doctor observes swelling, warmth and redness of the breast tissue with cracked nipples. Her temperature is 38.8°C. The doctor suspects mastitis, inflammation of the breast tissue with clogged milk ducts, which may be due to an infection. The patient is advised to continue breast feeding and take over-the-counter pain relievers (ibuprofen). However, the doctor would like to prescribe a course of antibiotics to clear the mastitis and prevent a recurrence.

The patient asks about the type of treatment and the doctor replies: “Which type of drugs are prescribed and for how long depend on your health condition and the type of bacteria found in your milk. We will need to send a sample to the lab for testing.”

You, as the diagnostic microbiologist, have been provided with a sample of this patient’s milk from the affected breast ducts for investigation. You need to correctly diagnose the infectious agent and determine antibiotic sensitivity to recommend choice antibiotics for effective treatment.

1) TESTS PERFORMED & RESULTS: (100-word limit)

Microbiological diagnosis:

2)

3) DISCUSSION: (100-word limit)

Provide a brief description of diagnosis and treatment options for control of the bacterial infection

1. Construct a model that has a central carbon atom with four different colored spheres attached to it, representing four different atoms or groups. Fill in the line-and-wedge drawing below to represent this model and answer the following question: (a) Does the model have a plane of symmetry?

The central carbon atom is said to be a chirality center. Most molecules of nature are chiral. The word “chiral” is derived from the Greek word, cheir and means “handed.” Chiral molecules are related to their mirror images in the same way that your left hand is related to your right hand. They are not identical!

Change one of the colored spheres so that two of the four spheres are the same

(b) fill in a 3-D and answer the following questions:

c) Does the molecule now possess a plane of symmetry?

d) In view of your answers to a–b above, what condition is necessary for a molecule to be chiral?

2. Reconstruct the original carbon with four different colored spheres. Set the model on the table. Construct another model that is the mirror image of the first and place it on the table.

a) Try to superimpose the two models. Are they the same or different? If different, in what sense?

b) What is the stereochemical term that relates these two models?

c) What two important properties must the two molecules (models) each have to be related by the term that is the answer to 3b?

Choose one colored sphere on a model and remove it - Change it to match another color on that model. Do the exact same thing on the other model.
d) Are the models still mirror images?

e) Do the models have a plane of symmetry? If there is a plane of symmetry, describe its location.

f) Are the models superimposable?
g) Do the models represent identical or different molecules? Are they chiral? Explain.

Hypnosis and the Stroop effect: In Chapter 1, you were given an opportunity to complete the Stroop test, in which color words are printed in the wrong color; for example, the word redmight be printed in the color blue. The conflict that arises when we try to name the color of ink the words are printed in but are distracted when the color word does not match the ink color increases reaction time and decreases accuracy. Several researchers have suggested that the Stroop effect can be decreased by hypnosis. Raz, Fan, and Posner (2005) used brain-imaging techniques to demonstrate that posthypnotic suggestion led highly hypnotizable people to see Stroop words as nonsense words. Imagine that you are working with Raz and colleagues and your assignment is to determine whether reaction times decrease (remember, a decrease is a good thing; it indicates that participants are faster) when highly hypnotizable people receive a posthypnotic suggestion to view the words as nonsensical. You conduct the experiment on six participants, once in each condition, and receive the following data; the first number is reaction time in seconds without the posthypnotic suggestion, and the second number is reaction time with the posthypnotic suggestion: Participant 1: 12.6, 8.5 Participant 2: 13.8, 9.6 Participant 3: 11.6, 10.0 Participant 4: 12.2, 9.2 Participant 5: 12.1, 8.9 Participant 6: 13.0, 10.8 A. What is the independent variable and what are its levels? What is the dependent variable? B. Conduct all six steps of a paired-samples t test as a two-tailed test. Be sure to label all six steps. C. Report the statistics as you would in a journal article. • Need to show all my work .

Signature/Benchmark Assignments are designed to align with specific program student learning outcome(s) in your program. Program Student Learning Outcomes are broad statements that describe what students should know and be able to do upon completion of their degree. Signature/Benchmark Assignments are graded with a grading guide or an automated rubric that allows the University to collect data that can be aggregated across a location or college/school and used for course/program improvements.

• Summarize the main duties of the job.
• Describe a specific ethical issue you might face in that position using 2 credible sources to support your description.
• Summarize the IMA's standards of ethical practice and conflict resolution guide.
• Analyze how the IMA's standards of ethical practice and conflict resolution guide applies to the ethical issue.
• Predict how you would handle the ethical issue.
• Hypothesize what would happen if no one in the company followed the IMA's standards of ethical practice.
• Assess why it is important to follow the IMA's standards of ethical practice.
• Design or name any methods of internal controls you think could prevent or detect the unethical behavior in the future.
