...Module 1 – Session Long Project Introduction to Probability Theory and Health Statistics Your specific assignment for this week is to select one type of quantitative health datum to collect from your own life. Some examples of data to collect could be: 1. How many minutes do you spend exercising each day? 2. What is your total daily caloric intake in calories? 3. What is your resting heart rate in beats per minute? 4. How many ounces of water do you drink each day? 5. What is your estimated total caloric expenditure from exercise each day? 6. What is your estimated daily intake of saturated fat in grams? 7. What is your daily systolic/diastolic blood pressure? Your Task: 1. Choose one variable that varies measurably from day to day. Be sure to specify the units of measurement, and state how it will be gathered. 2. Then collect at least 5 days’ worth of data on that one variable. For example, if your variable is how many minutes you spend exercising each day, simply record the number of minutes that you spend exercising each day during the sampling period. Be sure to save this data for use in remaining SLP assignments. The more data points that you gather during the session, the better. 3. Describe the data you have collected and its importance in relations to individual/population’s health.

...Priorities and Delegation Paper Delegation and assignment of nursing activities are important parts of the implementation component of practice for the registered nurse and licensed practical nurse. The licensed nurse may delegate and assign nursing care activities to other licensed nurses or unlicensed assistive personnel. This is based on their own licensed level, assessment of the client’s status, clinical competence of licensed and unlicensed personnel, and factors in each practice setting. Before assigning and delegating nursing activities to staff, the nurse needs information about the staff so that they can confidently assign them to the patients. One must know the legal roles in RNs and LPNs before delegation can occur. Delegation by RNs and LPNs must be within their scope or practice. Duties and responsibilities vary in different states. According to the Massachusetts Nurse Practice Act in the state of Massachusetts, nurses may assign and delegate the UAP any activities that do not require nursing assessment and judgment during implementation. In addition, they can allow the UAP to collect, report, and document simple data. Furthermore, UAP may be involved in activities that assist the patient in meeting basic human needs such as nutrition, hydration, mobility, comfort, elimination, socialization, rest and hygiene. In the state of Massachusetts, there are four nursing activities that must not be delegated to the patients. These activities include...

...IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER DELIVERY, VOL. 25, NO. 3, JULY 2010 1637 A Novel Three-Phase to Five-Phase Transformation Using a Special Transformer Connection Atif Iqbal, Member, IEEE, Shaikh Moinuddin, Member, IEEE, M. Rizwan Khan, Sk. Moin Ahmed, Student Member, IEEE, and Haithem Abu-Rub, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—The first five-phase induction motor drive system was proposed in the late 1970s for adjustable speed drive applications. Since then, a considerable research effort has been in place to develop commercially feasible multiphase drive systems. Since the three-phase supply is available from the grid, there is a need to develop a static phase transformation system to obtain a multiphase supply from the available three-phase supply. Thus, this paper proposes a novel transformer connection scheme to convert the threephase grid supply to a five-phase fixed voltage and fixed frequency supply. The proposed transformer connection outputs five phases and, thus, can be used in applications requiring a five-phase supply. Currently, the five-phase motor drive is a commercially viable solution. The five-phase transmission system can be investigated further as an efficient solution for bulk power transfer. The connection scheme is elaborated by using the simulation and experimental approach to prove the viability of the implementation. The geometry of the fabricated transformer is elaborated in this paper. Index Terms—Five phase, multiphase, three phase, transformer, ...

...Abstract—This paper addresses the topic of methods for producing inter procedural static data flow graphs. The method used in this paper is a sort of progressive mining approach: A start location for the data flow edges is outlined, and through multiple iterations, the forward data flow step operation is taken on the universe, until no new paths have been found. I. INTRODUCTION New tools often provide novel approaches to longstanding problems. In the next update of C-Atlas, Ensoft intends to update the capabilities of C-Atlas. These improvements are intended to provide a customizable approach to evaluating a program’s design, structure, and security. Such an update seeks to address any number of problems. Analyzing a C program’s memory management is one such problem. This project would seek to use C-Atlas to better analyze C memory management. In memory leak (memory management) analysis, the user must show that for every path forward from an variable’s allocation, there exists at least one deallocation site for that variable. This task is trivial, unless the variable’s allocation and deallocation(s) are separated by a vast field of possible control flow. C-Atlas offers a flexible interface for data flow graph generation as a solution to this problem. Through this interface, one may then produce connected data flow graphs, allowing a single variable’s path to be traced through multiple functions. This visual aide can greatly increase the time efficiency of performing memory...

...Adult baseline observations : Blood pressure The purpose of this assignment is to reflect on a chosen experience that I have identified as requiring more knowledge to complete this skill competently. I have chosen to do my learning contract on adult base line observation – blood pressure. The reason I have chosen this skill is because my first experience of taking a blood pressure was not a positive experience and to this day I still get nervous taking someone’s blood pressure. I can do the skill confidently now but feel I need to understand the theory around it to communicate the findings with the woman. When I was first learning to take someone’s blood pressure in intensives I was put down in front of our group by a tutor. I feel this would not have happened had I had more knowledge around the theory before the class which was of my own fault as I hadn’t read the modules thoroughly. I know the normal ranges of blood pressures for adults and how to get the systolic and diastolic numbers but if I was asked by a woman what these numbers mean, I would not be able to correctly and confidently communicate these with her. Existing knowledge - What do I already know about this topic/Skill. • I have had my own blood pressure taken by my doctor many times. • I have practiced taking blood pressures in akonga and intensives • I have taken women’s blood pressure on placement and during follow throughs appointments • I have passed my practise skill sheet for Adult...

...Assignment 2: Ancient Chinese Contributions By HUM 111 Professor Michael Briere May 15, 2012 Inventions, Innovations, and other Contributions From Ancient China Although Chinese culture is replete with lists of significant works or achievements such as: compass, papermaking, iron technology (cast iron), silk, first water powered blast furnace, gunpowder, medicine, paper money and certificates of deposit, printing, helicopter rotor and propeller, etc. Among, undoubtedly, many inventions, four stand out above others that I believe and nominate for are: (1) Iron technology (cast iron), (2) papermaking/currency, (3) guns and gunpowder, (4) medicine, all of which are still utilized by modern humanity. The first nominate greatest Chinese invention is the development of iron and steel. The development of iron and steel led to other advance. In the 5th century BC during the Zho Dynasty (1122-256BC), the Chinese had developed the blast furnace to obtain cast iron from iron ore. The Chinese had access to large amount of clay; clay was the most important ingredient in making blast furnace. The Chinese also figured out that by adding a substance the called “black earth” they could lower the melting point of iron; today iron and steel are used in many things from cars to buildings. The second nominate and the most important Chinese contributions to the modern world are papermaking. The earliest known piece of paper with writing on it was discovered near the 2nd century...
