Using the document provided here, complete an assessment involving one of the systems that has been covered to this point.

SYMPTOM ANALYSIS This is the description of the complaint that should be documented under the “present problem” or “history of current problem.” 1. Location: be specific: ask the person to point to the location e.g. if problem is pain note the precise site. Head pain is vague; pain behind the eyes, jaw pain are more precise and diagnostically significant. Localized to this site or radiating to other regions of the body. 2. Character or quality: Use specific descriptive terms like burning, sharp, dull, aching, throbbing, and shooting. Use similes-Does it look like sticky tar(blood in stool) or coffee grounds (blood in vomitus) 3. Quantity or severity: Attempt to quantify the symptom or sign, for example profuse menstrual bleeding soaking 5 pads/hour. Pain is difficult to quantify due to variable perceptionshorrible for one person might not be too bad for another. Avoid adjectives and ask how it affects daily activities. I was so sick had to come home and go to beddoubled up could not move. 4. Timing or onset, duration, frequency: When first appearedspecific date, and time, want to get to how long ago symptom started prior to arrival or being seen (PTA). The pain started yesterday does not mean much when read in the futureInclude questions like how long did the symptom last (duration)? Was it steady or constant or did it come and go during that time (intermittent)? Cycle or remission or exacerbationDid it resolve and reappear days or weeks later? 5. Setting: Where was the person or what was the person doing when the symptom started? What brings it on, for example Did you notice the pain after shoveling snow or did it start by itself? 6. Aggravating or relieving factors (Precipitating or palliative): What makes it worse? What relieves it? Is it aggravated by weather, activity, food, medication, standing, bending over, season etc. What is the effect of any treatment? Ask what have you tried or what seems to help? 7. Associated factors: Is the primary symptom associated with any others e.g. urinary frequency is it associated with burning, fever, chills, nausea & vomiting. Review the body system (s) related to this symptom. e.g. urinary frequency, the abdomen, Genitourinary system are related to this symptom. 8. Patients Perception or Understanding: Find out the meaning of the symptom by asking how it affects daily activities. Ask directly What do you think it means? Alerts you to potential anxiety if patient thinks it is worrisome or ominous. Organize your assessment using the mnemonic PQRSTU P: Provocative or Palliative: What brings it on? What were you doing when you first noticed it? What makes it better worse? Q: Quality or Quantity: How does it look, feel, sound? How intense severe is it? R: Region or Radiation: Where is it? Does it spread anywhere? S: Severity Scale. How bad is it? (On a scale of 1-10). Is it getting better worse or staying the same? T: Timing. OnsetExactly when did it first occur? DurationHow long did it last? FrequencyHow often does it occur? U: Understanding. Patients perception of the problem. Why do you think it means or what do you think is going on?

Philosophers of Technology have often argued that technologies are value-laden rather than being merely value-neutral.

One reason for thinking so is because the act of building or making always presupposes value-judgments about what we think is worth building or making in the first place. Put another way, what we make or build often reveals what we think is worth doing: making and building reveal what we take to be a problem, and whether that problem is worth solving.In Paper 1, you wrote about how introducing new technologies into different cultures require their people to adapt or change their lifestyles, including the sphere of life we might call the political (that is, how and where they work, how they think, how they live, how they form organizations and institutions, etc.). In Paper 3, you will do the same kind of analysis but with your senior project in mind.Give an account of your own values infrastructures (see the reading by Cook) that explain your intentions behind the design of your senior project. Assume that your senior design project is going to be adopted in a country outside the US and Canada. Consider the potential for conflict at the level of differing values infrastructures between you as a designer and the adopting population as end users.In your write up, be sure to:1. Describe what you are building for your senior project.2. Explain: why you are making it?; how are you making it?; for whom are you making it?3. Assume that your design will be adopted in a country outside the US and Canada. Pick one country only.4. Give an account of your own values infrastructures that best explain your intentions behind your senior project. Consider the intentions behind your design and the intentions of your targeted end users. Can you anticipate or foresee unintentional consequences in your design? Can you foresee whether your design will be used ethically or unethically? Are there any ways you would not want your design to be used at all?
Grading rubricWrite an essay that addresses the questions above. When you respond to these questions, you should be specific and cite specific details either from the readings, class lectures, or your own research.

Project abstractThere are many students living with roommates. According to Zillow, 40% of young adults have roommates. However, living together with roommates can be difficult to plan out. There are always many problems such as who purchased and used items that roommates all share, and these issues can lead to heated arguments.
There are often disagreements among roommates when the one purchases an item, but another consumes the item because they do not know whose it is or whether it can be shared or not. A crude solution to this problem is labeling every item with the owners name and if it shared or not, but this solution is not practical when the amount of items becomes very large. Labeling helps others to know whose item it is, but does not solve the issue of helping you keep track of your items.
The project demonstrates a new way of organizing and distinguishing household items to solve the issues described above. The barcode scanner allows users to scans items with a Universal Product Code (UPC) and quickly add them to their inventory. The image recognition by machine learning algorithm recognizes and identifies items which do not have any barcode, so that much of the input data is automatically filled out. All this data is stored in a database that propagates to other users in the household the state of the item. This allows users to manage, keep track, share, and input their items with ease.The goal of this project is to facilitate the tracking and management of a single users mobile devices barcode and quickly add items into an inventory. The application identifies items that users own, quantities, prices and expiration dates of these items to a user or a household. The image recognition machine learning algorithm is used to identify items which do not have any barcode. The main objective of the project will be to use the camera on a mobile device to take an image of an object or use the image recognition machine learning to analyze it and identify it, in order to facilitate user data entry into their inventory.
roblem and MotivationKeeping track of your things can often be difficult, especially when living with others. For example, keeping track of items in a single pantry can be quite time-consuming and tedious. Sometimes items become forgotten and this can be especially wasteful for perishable items. Most people cannot keep track of all the items they own in their head and have an even harder time remembering the purchase date. Because most items that are bought from a store have a barcode, it makes inventory management rather simple. Unfortunately, some items have long since lost their packaging or do not have a barcode thus making a barcode only inventory application rather limited. Our project aims to tackle this problem with the aid of machine learning. This is in an effort to reduce waste and keep users better informed about the things they own while aiding households in better sharing their items.
The application of our project result is primarily to help ease the difficulties of group living and assists individuals and households in managing their collective and individual belongings.The purpose of our project result (an iPhone app in this case) is to identify and categorize items based on their look(by taking a picture of an item) or by scanning a barcode on them, keep track of how many or how much of a certain item is available in a household, predict if an item needs to be purchased based on previous item usage data and provide item usability informationour project result helps household members to be more organized and more aware of what is that they have or they have not and make financially viable decisions, even with purchases that seem very insignificant when executed at a time but could have a major impact when added up through time.our project result data collected from the users is to be used to gather anonymous non-identifiable user data that can be used to aid in a variety of researchers and community studies. Such applications include researchers that deal with the consumption of a certain type of product and its relation to some type of illness, or the community study that deals with the financial status of a community or region and their purchasing habits.Our project result can be used to aid in academic initiatives by providing data that can be used in academic studies., our product is expected to make an economic impact on households who will be using the product. This is due to the prospective reduction in unnecessary waste and purchases that is likely to occur when using the product.

Nicknamed the Bibiton.
What is the Israel Hayom law that the Knesset passed in a preliminary vote on Wednesday?
The law for the advancement and protection of written journalism in Israel is more widely known as the Israel Hayom law and would more accurately be called the law to limit Sheldon Adelsons influence. The law, proposed by MK Eitan Cabel (Knesset) and sponsored by members of five other Knesset parties, would make it illegal to widely distribute a full-size newspaper free of charge.
The laws stated intention is to defend written journalism in a period of financial hardship for newspapers in Israel (Maariv closed down, Haaretz on its way) . It doesnt mention any paper by name, but only Israel Hayom fits its requirements.
THE LAW’S UNSTATED INTENTION: An anti Bibi/Adelson law many would argue that was widely supported across the board by many from within his coalition. This is not a right wing newspaper per say that just purports right wing ideology this is a paper that came out against many of Netanyahu’s competitors, party members etc. Regardless of their ideology or platform rather more if they posed a threat to the PM. It came out after Bennet, after Lieberman etc.
Why are the laws supporters going after Israel Hayom?
Aside from the official reason of creating fair competition in the Israeli newspaper industry, there are political and commercial considerations at work. Israel Hayom has had one agenda since it first appeared in 2007 Benjamin Netanyahu. It supported his candidacy for prime minister, and since his reelection in 2009, it has been slavishly pushing his policies and defending him and his family from criticism.
The law is being sponsored by members of rival parties to Netanyahus Likud, from the right and left, both coalition and opposition members. Even Netanyahus senior ministers have attacked the paper; Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman called it Pravda and Economics Minister Naftali Bennett described it as a mouthpiece of one man. In its support for Netanyahu, Israel Hayom has created enemies across the political spectrum who are eager to clip its wings.
—————————————————————————————————————
they reserve their most vicious editorial attacks for anyone who dares to disagree with or criticize Netanyahu and the government. I wouldnt say that they do that at the expense of the truth, but the journalists who work there know that they have to tow a particular editorial line in anything that touches the government. There isnt even a pretense of objectivity. And that makes them very, very different to any other paper in Israel. Its known as the Bibiton which is Hebrew for sort of Bibi news and
Nachum Barnea, whos an award-winning Israeli columnist. He described the paper which was launched just before the last election as the biggest election gift ever given in Israel. If you remember, Natanyahu was elected by a knife edge, so any slight swing in the vote there was extremely important.The other thing about Israel is that the standard of living here is much, much lower than it is in the States, and so, an expenditure on a daily newspaper is much, much higher proportionally, since salaries are about a third of what they are in the States. If someones giving you a newspaper for nothing, instead of one that you have to pay for, then its gonna be very attractive to you. And once you start reading it, then theres more than likely possibility that its going to start to inform your political views.
————————————————————————————————–
The freesheet swiftly became the newspaper with the highest public exposure in Israel, upsetting the monopoly of the top-selling tabloid Yedioth Ahronoth. Israel Hayom has accused Yedioths publisher, Arnon Noni Mozes, of orchestrating the law through MKs who receive preferential treatment from Mozes paper and its popular website Ynet, in the interest of reestablishing his predominance in Israeli media. For months now, the paper has been running a campaign portraying Mozes as a puppeteer pulling the strings of the politicians in Nonis evil empire.
Mozes, who never gives interviews, has not responded to these accusations. The MKs sponsoring the law have denied they are doing Mozes bidding.
Why does Adelson need a newspaper?
Adelson, who made his first fortune from computer-industry conventions and then reaped billions from his mega-casino and hotel complexes in the United States and Far East, has no major business holdings in Israel and never invested in the media in the past. At a conference just this Sunday he even said I dont like journalism. He does, however, have a keen interest in politics in his native United States and in Israel (of which he isnt a citizen, though his second wife Miri is).
In the United States he has plowed an estimated $150 million through super PACs to fund presidential and congressional campaigns of Republicans he favors, but political funding laws in Israel allow individuals and corporations to contribute only relatively small sums.
Adelson, who holds far-right political views and has known and supported Netanyahu for over two decades, founded Israel Hayom as his own personal loophole to do in Israel what he has been doing in the United States. The papers financial statements remain a closely guarded secret, but Israeli media experts believe he has spent at least $50 million to date.
In interviews, Adelson has denied that Israel Hayom is a Bibiton a moniker combining Netanyahus nickname and the Hebrew word for newspaper. He says the paper was created to balance the far-left agenda of Yedioth and other Israeli media. (Not true goes out against Bennet/Lieberman/internal likud competitors).
Adelsons MO and his papers coverage of Netanyahu suggest otherwise. Israel Hayom was founded on the (not totally unfounded) belief that the Israeli media are out to get Netanyahu and the only way he can govern is by having his own media.
Would the new law harm Israel Hayom?
The freesheet has been running a campaign accusing the law and its supporters of trying to shut it down. This is disingenuous. By forcing them to charge readers even a small price, readership will go down, but whatever that may do the papers revenues it is immaterial as the paper is operating at a loss anyway that Adelson has no problem covering using his private fortune. Israel Hayom can continue to operate despite the law as long as Adelson continues to bankroll it.
Their real issue is that the law would drastically limit the papers exposure. Israel Hayom rarely publishes scoops, seldom receives high-profile exclusive interviews and has very few must-read columnists by any standard. Its one attraction is that its free of charge.
But its publishers are no fools; theyre fully aware that if it were a paid product, it would be likely to be bought by very few Israelis as it is, print journalism is on the decline. Denying it this advantage would deny Adelson the influence and support he hoped to buy for Netanyahu in funding the paper.
Whats wrong with the law?
There are two major problems with Israel Hayom law. First, no law should be targeted at a single individual or company. The crude way the proposal has been tailored for this one freesheet highlights the political and commercial motivations behind it.
Second, any law that seeks to impose limits on a media organization carries inherent dangers. Legislation against one newspaper, as problematic as it is per se, creates a perilous precedent for Israeli democracy. (where else did this happen? Germany find examples as to how)
There are counterarguments in favor, of course. For a start, Israel Hayom as a loss-making, mass-distributed, one-politician-supporting freesheet is not a real newspaper in many senses. Its supporters claim that it operates on the business model of freesheets around the world, but this is patently untrue. Those free papers, with their tiny editorial budgets, are meant solely as vehicles for advertisement and to while away a few minutes on the daily commute.
Adelsons billions, on the other hand, have financed a full staff of journalists (in itself a good thing) whose sole aim is to create a pro-Netanyahu publication that resembles an attractive and professional newspaper. While this may or may not have been an intended result, it is jeopardizing the existence of rivals that lack the capacity to sustain large losses. Still, targeted legislation should not be the solution.
Are there other ways in which Israel Hayom should be challenged?
Adelsons newspaper is thinly disguised mega-campaign funding. The regulators of political finance, especially the state comptroller, should have stepped in long ago to close this loophole. Flooding the market with a free product and undercutting competitors by offering cut-price advertising space is ruining competition in what is already an increasingly fragile print-media market.
The Antitrust Authority should be looking into that. For whatever reasons (and which state agency would rush to investigate a company owned by the prime ministers chief patron?) the relevant authorities seem to have made no attempt to enquire whether Israel Hayom is breaking any laws, let alone try to regulate them.
In the absence of any regulation or enforcement necessary to create a more level playing-field both in politics and the media, this anti-Adelson law was born. Its a bad law, but more than that, its a symptom of the weakness of Israeli democracy.
