Sexuality is essential to the way one conceives oneself. It may depend on one's experiences and considerations that often fluctuate throughout his or her lifespan. It gets impacted by different biopsychosocial, economic, cultural, religious, and spiritual factors. The textbook states that with the passing time, the emotional, intellectual, and physical aspects of sexual desire and expression become fairly stable in both genders. The Western views have equalized aging with dying, so most of the people probably have a confined view of aged adults as sexually active individuals. Unfortunately, our healthcare providers are also not exempted from these stereotypical attitudes.

Regardless of sexual orientation, how are men and women similar and different in terms of their attitudes toward sex and love?

Describe Sternberg's Triangular theory of Love. Can you compare a relationship you have experienced to Sternberg's theory?

How does a social cultural message add to the stereotypes toward sexuality in aging population?

Are there changes in the sexual behavior of the aged population?

Describe the changes in sexuality from puberty through late adulthood. Describe how a person's definition and experience of sexuality and intimacy often fluctuates throughout his or her lifespan. What are some of the influences as it relates to "changes in sexuality from puberty to late adulthood"?

PC.52 At the start of the semester Custom Kicks personnel were struggling to quickly customize their shoe inserts to their customers' feet. This hurt sales as customers became frustrated during the customization process and would hesitate to refer friends. During week three of running the business, it took an average employee about 20 minutes to customize one pair of inserts. Recognizing this challenge, management and key employees analyzed the customization process and made some time-saving changes. Two weeks later, after training all employees on the new process, an average employee could customize a pair of inserts in about 14 minutes. In this case, what is the output that should be used for productivity calculations? 1 pair (of customized inserts) 20 minutes 14 minutes After making the time-saving changes mentioned above, how many pair of inserts could an average employee complete in one hour? (Display your answer to two decimal places.) After making the time-saving changes mentioned above, by what percentage did Custom Kicks' productivity increase? (Write your answer as a percentage, and display your answer to two decimal places.) %

T&J manufacturing has a factory that produces custom kitchen cabinets. It has multiple product lines. Materials and labor for the cabinets are determined by each job. To simplify the assignment, we will assume the following average costs. The materials include $1,000 for the wood and other direct materials of $200. Both items listed are on a per job basis. It requires 20 hours of labor on average for a custom kitchen. The hourly rate is $10. The sales price will be set at a markup of 65%. The company estimates that it will have 16,000 direct labor hours in total for all product lines. It assumes 800 units are sold on average per year. A breakdown of estimated yearly costs related to the kitchen cabinets follows: Salaries- office & administrative $ 520,000 Salaries for factory personal: $ 220,000 Office Rent $ 125,000 Factory Rent $ 20,000 Office Utilities and Misc office expenses(based on units sold) $ 20,000 Sales Travel(based on units sold) $ 24,000 Insurance - office $ 12,000 Depreciation - office equipment $ 40,000 Depreciation for factory equipment $ 70,000 Advertising $ 20,000 Sales commissions(based on units sold) $ 45,000 Factory Property taxes: $ 10,000 Maintenance for factory equipment: $ 80,000

7. If the following changes were to be made, calculate a new CVP Income Statement: Direct Material costs decrease by 10%; fixed costs increase by 15% and sales price would increase by 5%. Assume you are selling the 800 units. Should the company consider these changes? Why or why not? This question is not just based on the new net income. Please review the full income statement for changes. What if the sales volume changes? Does this change your answer? I would recommend using volumes higher and lower to see how the changes impact your answer. Include any CVP income statements that are needed to support your answer. Discuss real examples of cost increases for fixed costs (at least 2) and decreases for direct materials (at least 2) that could be implemented for this business. Can the company increase price? What other areas might be impacted due to the price increase? You are the CFO of this business what is important to consider? Give 2 industry specific details that can impact this discussion.

A friend of yours has twin 5 year old girls and loves to take them to the pool. You friend tells you, however that the most annoying thing is that although the girls are asked to pee before going into the pool, they generally say they don't have to pee, just to ask to go pee 5 minutes after being in the pool! "What's up with that?!" your friend asks, "Could there be something wrong with the girls, are they just being mischievous? Do you think I should take them to the doctor to see if there is a problem with their bladders? It only ever happens when they go into the pool". As a physiology student, apply your knowledge to explain why the girls tend to have to pee when they go swimming.

Question 1) Using your knowledge of physiology and circulation, how does the body respond if it gets cold, as would be the case during swimming?

1. Which receptor is responsible for detecting cold?
2. What pathway does the information travel up to the brain?
3. Where in the brain is the information received?
4. To conserve heat, where will blood be directed? To the limbs, or to the vital organs?
5. How is blood directed?

Question 2) Now that we know where blood is being directed when the body gets cold, how does that affect the following?

1. Blood pressure
2. Cardiac output
3. ANS
4. Osmoreceptors, Posterior Pituitary and ADH

Questions 3) How do the kidneys respond to the changes that can occur in blood pressure, cardiac output, ANS, Osmoreceptor, Posterior Pituitary and ADH, as noted in the previous questions?

1. How do the kidneys respond to changes in blood pressure?
2. How do the kidneys respond to changes in cardiac output and blood volume?
3. How do the kidneys respond to changes in ANS?
4. How do the kidneys respond to changes detected by osmoreceptors?
5. What hormones regulate water uptake in the kidneys?
6. What are water channels called?
7. In which part (s) of the nephron is water absorbed?

Question 4) Now that you have applied your knowledge, what can you tell your friend about their question? Is there something wrong? (Yes or no). What is your diagnosis?

Environmentalism and Moral Concern for Animals Many believe that we are in serious trouble today as human beings plunging headlong into a major climate crisis on planet earth. Our course eText on Environmental Ethics states the following: There is no denying that the global climate is changing, as the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has increased during the past century. … Coastlines are crumbling as the climate changes and sea levels rise… storms are increasing in severity … the Arctic ice cap is melting… (MacKinnon, 427). But what’s causing these troubling changes? We are. MacKinnon again: Some skeptics dispute whether the changes are entirely man-made, but the vast majority of experts believe one of the major causes of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels … (MacKinnon, 428). And the human disregard for nature also means disregard for all species of animals that depend on livable natural habitats. Entire species today are threatened with imminent extinction. Writing in 2016, MacKinnon says “687 animal species are listed as either endangered or threatened.” That number has risen drastically since 2016, leading some scientists to conclude that we are in the midst of a global mass extinction of animal species. The following video links provide, in the first, a summary of a U.N. Climate Change Report from 2019, and, in the second, an explanation of the meaning of speciesism by Dr. Richard Ryder. After watching these short videos, please respond to the discussion questions listed below. U.N. Climate Change Report: LINK (Links to an external site.) Dr. Richard Ryder on the meaning of speciesism Link (Links to an external site.) Discussion Questions (please address both 1 and 2). [1] How does the hearing of this U.N. report on the climate crisis affect you, your values, your sense of the world and its future? What human beliefs or values today will more likely prevent needed changes in our way of life, methods of production, or government policies? And what beliefs or values will more likely lead to the kind of changes needed to address the climate crisis? [2] Do you think humans are biased against animals, as moral philosophers like Peter Singer express with the term speciesism, and do you think this speciesism is comparable to other human biases such as racism and sexism, as Dr. Ryder contends in the video?

Why or why not?

Program: Java

Write a Java program using good programming principles that will aggregate the values from several input files to calculate relevant percentages and write the values to an output file.

You have been tasked with reading in values from multiple files that contains different pieces of information by semester. The Department of Education (DOE) would like the aggregate values of performance and demographic information by academic year. A school year begins at the fall semester and concludes at the end of the summer semester the following year. Fall 2019 - Summer 2020 is considered one academic year.

Input Files

• Input files named Fall2019Analytics.txt, Spring2020Analytics.txt, and Summer2020Analytics.txt have been placed in Canvas.   Each have the same layout but differ by semesters.
• Each file contains several pieces of data by program - total enrollment, enrollment by gender, completion by gender, enrollment by ethnicity, completion by ethnicity, among other pieces of data.  
• The program should read in the values from these input files, aggregate the data, and write the information to an output file that will be sent to Tallahassee.
• From there, the DOE will use this output file as input to aggregate the data from other schools within the state of Florida.
• It is important that this file is formatted in the proper sequence that the DOE needs - otherwise the college will be heavily fined and may lose accreditation.

These input files contain the data for three programs on campus:

Program code 3624
Program code 5651
Program code 6635

Input file layout (all integer values) by semester:

• program number
• total number of students enrolled in the program
• total number of student completers in the program
• total number of female students enrolled in the program
• total number of male students enrolled in the program
• total number of unknown/not reported gender students enrolled in the program
• total number of female student completers in the program
• total number of male student completers in the program
• total number of unknown/not reported student completers in the program
• total number of Asian students enrolled in the program
• total number of Black students enrolled in the program
• total number of Hispanic students enrolled in the program
• total number of Multiracial students enrolled in the program
• total number of Native American students enrolled in the program

• total number of Native American student completers in the program
• total number of Native Hawaiian student completers in the program
• total number of Unknown ethnicity student completers in the program
• total number of White students completer in the program

Notes

• Each value within the file for a program is separated by one space.
• Each program code is on its own line in each file. There are three lines per file.
• Use an array or arrayList to hold the values within each file.
• Each semester should be coded within their own class.

Calculations

The following values must be calculated:

For each semester:
   - the percentage of students completers (total number of student completers / total number of students enrolled)

For each individual program code:
   - grand totals for each category (enrolled, completers, gender, and ethnicity)

Aggregate for all semesters:

   - the total number of students enrolled
   - the total number of student completers
   - the total number by gender
   - the total number by each ethnicity
   - the percentage of student completers (total completers / total enrolled)
   - the percentage of female completers (total number of female completers / total number of female enrolled)
   - the percentage of male completers
   - the percentage of each ethnicity

Output

The output for this project will be two-fold.   The output will be displayed in a Message dialog box and an output file.
