HPI: A 14-month-old Native American boy brought in by his mom due to cough, low grade fever and runny nose for the past 2 days. This morning, the mother noted that her son was breathing quickly and “it sounds like he has rice cereal popping in his throat.” Mom is worried because her son seems to have a lot of “bouts of colds”. Per mom, his oral intake is decreased. He didn’t want to eat this morning.
PE: Smiling, alert Native American boy.
VS: Temp of 99.9, pulse 112, respiratory rate is 58, Pulse ox
96%
HEENT: There is moderate, thick, clear rhinorrhea and postnasal
drip.
CV: His capillary refill is less than 3 seconds
PULM: lung sounds are diminished in the bases, he has pronounced
intercostal and subcostal retractions, expiratory wheezes are heard
in all lung fields.
What diagnosis would you give this child and what treatment?

A snake of proper length 100 cm is moving at speed v = 0.6c to the right across the table. A mischievous boy, wishing to tease the snake, holds two hatchets 100 cm apart and plans to bounce them simultaneously on the table so that the left hatchet lands immediately behind the snake’s tail 1 .
The boy argues as follows: “The snake is moving with v = 0.6c, therefore, its length measured in my frame is 100cm γ = 80 cm. This implies that the right hatchet will fall 20 cm in front of the snake, and the snake will be unharmed”. On the other hand, the snake argues “the hatchets are approaching me at 0.6c, and the distance between them is 80 cm. Since I am 100 cm long, I will be cut in pieces when they fall” (it’s a very smart snake).
Use Lorentz transformation to resolve this apparent paradox. In other words, resolve it quantitatively, not just with a qualitative argument about non-simultaneity.
Please show work quantitatively, thanks!

In this activity, you will determine the probability of obtaining one of these disproportionate ratios if we assume that nature alone is responsible for these obscure results. In order to determine these probabilities, you will use the Normal approximation to the binomial.
1. Outline the binomial model for the number of boy births in the next 1000 births assuming that births are produced according to the natural ratio of 51.2% chance of a boy.
2. Outline the Normal approximation to the binomial by determining if this binomial distribution satisfies the conditions for the Normal approximation. Furthermore, determine the mean and standard deviation.
3. Next, determine the probability of getting an obscure ratio or worse. That is:
(a) What is the probability of having 33% boys or less? (in 1000 births, 330 would be male)
(b) What is the probability of having 41% boys or less? (in 1000 births, 410 would be male)
(c) What is the probability of having 1200 boys for every 1000 girls or 54.5% boys? (in 1000 births, 545 would be male)
4. Interpret these results in the context of the problem.
5. Comment on the moral and ethical implications of these results.

In the 20's there was a situation where a man brought his son with him into a drug store. The sore counter featured q wind up toy that the little boy wanted. His father decided the ten cents was worth spending and bought the toy for him. The clerk collected the money turned a pulled a boxed toy from a nearby shelf. The man and his son exited .

Supreme Court where the court sided for the store explaining that the father should have examined the purchase before exiting the store. The doctrine of caveat Emptor or "Let the buyer beware" was the ruling principle. In this scenario, who was right...who was wrong and why? Explain in detail!

Ralp is a 13-year-old boy Black- American with sickle cell anemia. He has been attending a day camp this summer. He was playing flag footbal in 90 dgree wheather. All of a sudden he complain of severe knee pain bilateraly. His Mom took him to his Dr., who had him directly admitted to the hospital for a sickle cell crisis.

He has had multiple hospitiozations for sickle cell crisis. On admission, he stated his pain was a 9 on a 1 - 10 pain scale. He is alert and oriented. Both of his knees are red, swollen, and warm to touch. His mucous membranes are slightly pale and slightly dry. Lung sounds are clear bilat., heart tones are normal but slightly tacy at 100. It is 3 pm and he says he only voided once to day. He denies priapism.
1. What is the relationship of Ralph's symptoms today and how it relates to his sickle cell anemia?
2. Why do you think he went into a crisis today? What could he have done to prevent this?
3. What is the sequalae for a child that has had many crisis episodes?
4. What treatments do you expect will be done?
5. Look up the normal value for hemoglobin and hematocrit for a healthy 13-yeasr-old boy, then look up the normal values for a 13 year-old boy with sickle cell anemia. Ralph's labs to day are: Hgb - 9.8 and Hct - .28. Are his values normal for him?

Many people believe that computer security relies on firewalls, programs, and policies. However, much of computer security is dependent on the corporate culture, and their view on security. For instance: Is it normal for people to leave their desks with their computer unlocked?
You want to improve the security in your organization without using negative reinforcement (i.e. policing). What are some ways you can help drive a culture of security in an organization? Try to be unique and novel in your suggestions.
