Oedipus the King and “Lysistrata” Q-1

Using Lysistrata, answer the following question: Can sex really be used to exact political ends?

You will be graded on your demonstration of your knowledge of the text and your ability to communicate your ideas.

NOTE:
For Oedipus the King, I am particularly interested in what you think about fate.  To be more precise, I want you to explore the idea that Oedipus is a symbol of us all who might (notice the “might”) be fettered to predestination.  In effect, I want you to explore the presence or absence of free will.

Lysistrata presents to us something quite different.  The women of the city refuse to yield sexually to their men on the grounds that they believe the war should stop.  Is war an inevitablity with humans, and if so, are the demands of the women in the play unreasonable?

Case Study 1: Alterations of the Endocrine Function

C.B. is a significantly overweight, 48-year-old woman from the Winnebago Indian tribe who had high blood sugar and cholesterol levels three years ago but did not follow up with a clinical diagnostic work-up. She had participated in the states annual health screening program and noticed that her fasting blood sugar was 141 and her cholesterol was 225. However, she felt perfectly fine at the time and could not afford any more medications. Except for a number of female infections, she has felt fine until recently. Today, she presents to the Indian Hospital general practitioner complaining that her left foot has been weak and numb for nearly three weeks and that the foot is difficult to flex. She denies any other weakness or numbness at this time. However, she reports that she has been very thirsty lately and gets up more often at night to urinate. She has attributed these symptoms to the extremely warm weather and drinking more water to keep hydrated. She has gained a total of 65 pounds since her last pregnancy 14 years ago, 15 pounds in the last 6 months alone.

Case Study Questions

Clinical signs are objective manifestations of a disease that can be identified by someone other than the patient. List a minimum of four signs from the case study above that support a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes in this patient.
Why do stress and infection promote hyperglycemia in patients with diabetes?
Why should medications other than glipizide or glyburide be considered for management of diabetes in this patient?

Case Study 2: Alterations of the Digestive Systems Function

R.H.  is a 74-year-old black woman, who presents to the family practice clinic for a scheduled appointment.  She complains of feeling bloated and constipated for the past month, some-times going an entire week with only one bowel movement. Until this episode, she has been very regular all of her life, having a bowel movement every day or every other day.  She reports straining most of the time and it often takes her 10 minutes at a minimum to initiate a bowel movement. Stools have been extremely hard. She denies pain during straining. A recent colonoscopy was negative for tumors or other lesions. She has not yet taken any medications to provide relief for her constipation. Furthermore, she reports frequent heartburn (34 times each week), most often occur-ring soon after retiring to bed. She uses three pillows to keep herself in a more upright position during sleep. On a friends advice, she purchased a package of over-the-counter aluminum hydroxide tablets to help relieve the heartburn. She has had some improvement since she began taking the medicine. She reports using naproxen as needed for arthritic pain her hands and knees.  She states that her hands and knees are extremely stiff when she rises in the morning. Because her arthritis has been getting worse, she has stopped taking her daily walks and now gets very little exercise.

Case Study Question

List a minimum of five risk factors that may be contributing to constipation.
List five clinical signs and symptoms that are consistent with constipation.
Why is anemia not a suspected complication of this condition?
Would a urinalysis, series of liver function tests, or serum uric acid level be appropriate for this patient?

Your initial post should be at least 500 words per case study, formatted and cited in current APA style with support from at least 2 academic sources. Your initial post is worth 8 points.
You should respond to at least two of your peers by extending, refuting/correcting, or adding additional nuance to their posts. Your reply posts are worth 2 points (1 point per response.)
All replies must be constructive and use literature where possible.
Please post your initial response by 23:59 Thursday, and comment on the posts of two classmates by 23:59 Sunday.
You can expect feedback from the instructor within 48 to 72 hours from the Sunday due date.

C# Console Application project

TASK 1:

Create a new C# Console Application project and add a class called Employee. This class should have two
instance variables: a name (of type String) and a salary (of type double). Implement the constructor with
two parameters that will set up the initial values of the instance variables:

public Employee (string employeeName, double currentSalary)
You must implement the following methods:
getName this is an accessor method that should return the name of the employee
getSalary this is an accessor method that should return the salary of the employee in currency format
raiseSalary this method should raise the employees salary by a certain percentage

add a new method Tax(), which calculates how much tax is
deducted from the Employees annual pay, according to the following criteria:

$0 $18,200            0%        Nil
$18,201 $37,000  19%      19c for each $1 over $18,200
$37,001 $90,000  32.5%    $3,572 plus 32.5% of amounts over $37,000
$90,001 $180,000  37%    $20,797 plus 37% of amounts over $90,000
$180,000 and over    45%    $54,096 plus 45% of amounts over $180,000

Use ifelse statements. Make sure that the final program works correctly and meets the specification by testing it with different salaries in the EmployeeProgram class.

TASK 2:

Create a new C# Console Application project and add a class called Car with the following parameters,
which you will set in the constructor:

fuel efficiency which is measured in miles per gallon (mpg);
fuel in the tank (in litres) with an initial value of 0;
total miles driven with an initial value of 0.

Set up a constant to hold the current cost of fuel in dollars per litre. For the purpose of this program, the
cost per litre of petrol is 1.385$.

You must implement the following methods in the Car class:
getFuel this accessor method should return the amount of fuel in the tank
getTotalMiles this accessor method should return the total miles the car has driven
setTotalMiles this mutator method should update the total miles the car has driven
printFuelCost a method that returns the cost of fuel in dollars and cents.
addFuel this method should add fuel to the tank and calculate the cost of the fill
calcCost this method will take the amount of fuel, in litres, and multiply it by the cost of fuel (in
dollars per litre)
convertToLitres this method should accept a parameter for the number of gallons, convert that
value to litres and return the value in litres. This can be done by multiplying the value by 4.546.
drive this method should simulate driving the car for a certain distance in miles. It will accept the
number of miles driven and update the total miles stored for the car.

Then you will need to calculate the fuel used by dividing the distance driven by mpg. This will return the number of gallons used, which you then need to convert into litres. The method should display a message to state the total cost of the journey, in dollars and cents.

For the purposes of this class, you can assume that the drive() method is never called with a distance that consumes more than the available fuel.

Change the default Program main class name to CarProgram. Write appropriate code in the CarProgram class to test all of the methods that you have implemented. Compile, run and check the program for potential errors.
