Your assignment is to prepare and submit a paper on analysis of philosophers against the family by christina hoff sommers. Christina Hoff Sommers, in “Philosophers Against the Family” discusses that there is a false dichotomy as there is the great divide which distinguishes the radical feminist from the simply feminine and the mutual exclusivity of the two concepts which completely overlooks the reality that both can co-exist. Sommers (2005) offers that there is a middle ground, though this has not been widely recognized by both views, especially radical feminism in the United States. Liberal feminism gives focus on reforms which touches base on the very root of feminism. The oppression and the discrimination that necessarily entails sexism as commonly seen in the workplace and in society is the very nature that belittles women and that affects them on a regular basis. This is the fight of feminism on a daily basis that is in the heart of the average woman and her understanding of what feminism is. This, however, is far removed from the philosophical feminist’s view. “But to be anti-sexist in the technical, radical philosophical sense is not merely to be opposed to discrimination against women. it is to be for what Wasserstrom calls the assimilationist ideal” (Sommers, 2005, p.313). The truly antisexist in this sense would neither fight nor agree for laws that give preference to women such as maternity leave. Equality is achieved by overlooking and consequently extinguishing gender and all notions that come with it. The wider perspective that transcends the philosophical feminist movement is best understood by first appreciating the average woman. “The average woman enjoys her femininity” (Sommers, 2005, p.314). She has goals which include being with a man, having children and maintaining a career with the same opportunities that her male counterpart has.&nbsp.

Your assignment is to prepare and submit a paper on the evolution of windows operating system. The development of the first Windows graphical user interface was first announced by Microsoft’s founder Bill Gates in 1983. The operating system was to be an upgrade from its MS-DOS operating system which had been shipped for IBM PCs and other compatible computers since 1981.

Microsoft worked on the first version of what was to be a new operating system and its Interface manager codename was almost taken as its final name. However, the Windows name was eventually selected because it best described the various computing windows or boxes that were found to be fundamental to the new operating system. Two years after its announcement, Microsoft was finally able to ship its Windows 1.0 operating system and as a result of this relatively long period between its announcement and shipping, sceptics were referring to it as vaporware before it was successfully launched. The new operating made it easier for people to use computers because rather than having to type the numerous and sometimes complex MS-DOS commands, one now had to simply move a mouse to a specific point and then proceed to click the way through various screens or windows (Shinder & Shinder, 2003). When launching the new unique software, Bill Gates is quoted as describing the software as being unique and designed for use by the more serious PC users.

The new Windows 1.0 operating system afforded a number of features such as scroll bars, dialogue boxes, icons and drop-down menus that made it much easier for an individual to use and learn new programs. The operating system also offered the capability for one to be able to successfully switch among several different files and programs without first having to quit and then restart each program. Some of the additional features that were integrated into the new Windows Operating system variously included Calculator, Windows Writer, Paint, Card file, MS-DOS file management, Notepad, a game-Reversi and a clock to aid users in the easier management of their various day to day activities (Vinay, 2009).&nbsp.

You will prepare and submit a term paper on Practical Investigation: Medical Microbiology of the Respiratory Tract. Your paper should be a minimum of 1000 words in length. Although it is not known whether the exposure to the bacteria was recent or not, the patient had started exhibiting the general symptoms of tuberculosis. The patient also came from one of the African nations where TB is endemic. These were indicative of tuberculosis as the cause of illness. Mantoux tuberculin skin test or Heaf test may be used to confirm the diagnosis and immediate hospitalisation and medication is required.

Answer: TB is a highly contagious disease and its onset in individuals in a locality has to be recorded and notified to all local and state health departments to formulate a control and prevention plan. Every health department has to ensure a complete and timely investigation for suspected TB cases reported in its area.

Answer: The baby is immunosuppressed&nbsp.and has likely been infected by the fungi, Pneumocystis jirovecii, which causes pneumonia due to lung infection. It is known to be an opportunistic pathogen and has, therefore, affected the baby’s lungs causing fever, cough and respiratory distress.

Answer: The pathogen for PCP, Pneumocystis, is found in the lungs of healthy individuals but it causes infection only in people who have weak immune systems. Children are especially susceptible to diseases as they do not have fully developed immune systems, and in this case, the patient is also HIV+ve.

Answer: Sample 3a containing MDCK monolayer after incubation with patients NPA sample clearly indicates cytopathogenic effect on the cells when compared to the uninoculated MDCK cell sheet in sample 3b. This is an indication of viral infection.

Answer: The symptoms observed in the patient which include fever, chills, headache, runny nose and sore throat suggest that she may have contracted the flu. The doctor examining her at the clinic also suspected the same and the NPA test also confirms that she has been infected by the influenza virus.

Need an research paper on web server hacking. Needs to be 8 pages. Please no plagiarism. Customer support services are more efficient when performed electronically as more customers get to access the services at the same time. As a result of the transmission of sensitive financial and confidential information, cybercriminals have chosen to engage in illegal activities over the internet. To add to the attraction and profitability of these hacking attacks is the proliferation of insecure web applications (Zachary, 2006). These attacks on computer systems with negative intent are not new. They go as far back as the eighties when hackers used their skills to break into computer systems and perform their illegal activities. The advent of web based applications, though, has led to an increase of sophistication in hacking attacks. The skill required to perform these attacks, on the other hand, has lessened proportionately. In order to understand the need for security in one’s computer system, he or she should realize the risks involved. Most operating systems have a default configuration that is not designed with security as the chief focus. The default setup, instead, focuses on functionality, communications and usability. There is therefore a need to understand the server vulnerabilities in a system in order to perform particular functions to improve security (Leyden, 2002). It is hence clear that web server hacking is an important topic that should be evaluated in detail and understood by users of computer systems.
