A gentlemen in Moscow

Bread. On pages 369-375, we encounter Mishka’s grand artwork, Bread and Salt, which consists of excerpts from great literature that include the word bread. We know that bread matters to Mishka because of having been required to delete sentences from a letter by Chekhov about the excellent bread in other countries. (263). And of course, he is himself almost starving when he last sees Alexander. What is the meaning of Mishka’s artwork, Bread and Salt? Or, what is the significance of “bread” in the novel?

The American Dream

Posted on | by Brian Leakey

1 You learned the definition of the American Dream in Week 1. You also learned about the American identity. Traits often associated with the American identity include boldness, confidence, perseverance, and integrity. These traits are often demonstrated through a character’s words or actions. This week, we’ll focus on integrity. For this discussion, use any of the Week 4 readings except for “Woman Hollering Creek” and describe how two of the characters display strong moral principles.
Criteria:
300 words minimum (excluding quotations and citation)
2 This is a graded assignment. Remember our discussion from Week 1 about what the American Dream is? In this course, we’ve looked the origins of the American Dream and then how some groups have struggled to be included. In this final week of class, we are looking at the current status and the future of the American Dream, as well as what it means to be a global citizen.
In a post of at least 100 words, address the items below:
Explain how has your understanding of the American Dream changed as a result of this course.

Understanding of cells and cell behavior

Posted on | by Brian Leakey | Leave a Comment on Understanding of cells and cell behavior

 

An understanding of cells and cell behavior is a critically important component of disease diagnosis and treatment. But some diseases can be complex in
nature, with a variety of factors and circumstances impacting their emergence and severity.
Effective disease analysis often requires an understanding that goes beyond isolated cell behavior. Genes, the environments in which cell processes operate,
the impact of patient characteristics, and racial and ethnic variables all can have an important impact.
An understanding of the signals and symptoms of alterations in cellular processes is a critical step in the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. For
APRNs, this understanding can also help educate patients and guide them through their treatment plans.
In this Assignment, you examine a case study and analyze the symptoms presented. You identify cell, gene, and/or process elements that may be factors in
the diagnosis, and you explain the implications to patient health.

“Woman Hollering Creek”

Posted on | by Brian Leakey

Creative Assignment
“Woman Hollering Creek” is told as a third-person narrative, not as a first-person narrative. The difference is that a third-person narrative presents the characters to us in the words of a narrator rather than from the words of the characters themselves. The story contains descriptions such as “Cleofilas did this” or “Cleofilas said that,” but it’s not as if Cleofilas herself is telling everything from their perspective. Of course, sometimes she speaks in the story, but she does not get to tell the story or what she thinking or feeling. It is up to the reader to determine what she might be thinking or feeling.
For this assignment, imagine you are Cleofilas writing a journal entry the events described in the story. Try to get into the mind of Cleofilas. Be imaginative and creative. Pretend you are Cleofilas and have successfully left your marriage with Felice’s help. You will not be retelling the plot of the story; you will be Cleofilas reflecting on what has happened. In this journal entry you can put down whatever thoughts she might have using absolute frankness and honesty. 
Criteria:
Write a minimum 400 words in paragraph

PERSEVERANCE

Posted on | by Brian Leakey

Traits often associated with the American identity include boldness, confidence, perseverance, and integrity. These traits are often demonstrated through a character’s words or actions. This week, we’ll focus on perseverance and how it is reflected in two of the readings. Choose one character from a work of fiction (“The Soft-Hearted Sioux,” “Pawn Shop,” or The Invisible Man) and one person from a work of non-fiction (“Speech to the Osages,” Incidents in the Live of a Slave Girl, or “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?”). Describe how perseverance is reflected in each.
• Criteria: 300 words minimum (excluding quotations and citations)
