A screening program uses a home testing urine kit to detect disease X. You decide to test the kit in your community of 1,000 adults. You know that the prevalence of disease X in your community is 20% meaning that 200 have the disease at any given point in time. The test correctly identified 150 individuals with the disease while it was able to correctly identify 700 individuals without the disease.

Requirements:

1. Draw a 2×2 table.
2. Calculate the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of the screening test.
3. In 1 or 2 paragraphs, provide an interpretation of your results.

Your paper should:

• be 1-2 pages in length.
• properly cite research sources.
• show how you calculated your answers.
• be free of spelling and grammar errors.

Over the last three decades, dramatic changes have occurred in the fire environment.  Some of these changes include, but are not limited to, larger homes on smaller lots, lightweight construction and increased synthetic furnishings.  Fire research has shown us that much of what we were taught about fire dynamics has been significantly altered by these changes and that some of what we were taught about fire attack tactics is no longer appropriate or safe.  Simply put, the “Traditional” ways we have been fighting fires does not keep pace with today’s fire dynamics.
 

For this assignment, you are to research and discuss the following aspects of firefighting as it relates to the fire dynamics of today.  You will have no problem finding all the information you will need to answer these questions.

1. Discuss how fire dynamics have changed over the past 30 – 40 years.

2. Discuss how the fire service is adapting their firefighting tactics to combat these changes?

In your essay, you can discuss the points you think are most important.

Learning Objectives

• List healthy ways of managing stress that fit your current lifestyle

Directions

1. Identify at least three things you currently do to cope with stress that aren’t working or aren’t good for you.
2. Identify healthy replacements for each of them, and write yourself a “stress-relief prescription” that you plan to follow for one week. Try to include one stress management technique to use every day. At the end of the week, respond to the following prompts in a short, reflective  (400-600 words):
   • Which ineffective or unhealthy coping strategies did you set out to change and why?
   • Which stress-relief techniques did you try during the week? Are any of them new for you? Which ones were most effective?
   • How much do you think stress affects you in your current life at college? Do you feel like you have it under control or not? If not, what else might you do to reduce your stress level?

 he Open Web Application Security Project came into existence December 1st 2001, and is still used for the development of Web applications. Go to the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Website, located at https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Main_Page, and find their “Top 10.” Review the OWASP top 10 Web Application Security Risks for 2017. What are the most significant changes since 2013? Choose one of the items and look at it closely. For example, number 10 is “Insufficient Logging and Monitoring”; what is recommended to prevent this risk? What does that mean to you based on your experience in this class so far? Knowing the importance of identifying threats, how should developers be responsible for log files and monitoring. Justify your answers. Share your findings with your classmates and provide links to any useful resources you find. After reading a few classmate postings, reply to the ones where you learned something new, or have something to add. Get in early to post your initial feedback and keep the discussion going.
