Although there are some critics that do not align Hughes with Modernism, where do we see in him the same experimentation with language and form and emphasis on American individualism that we see in the poems of other pre-Modernists and Modernists, like Emily Dickinson? Compare and contrast one poem by Hughes with one poem by Dickinson.

Project 4 Plan (outline)

This assignment asks you to plan and create an outline for Project 4. It’s OK to revise this before your final submission, so make your best guess based on what you know right now.

During our final class, you will have a chance to present your project informally to your classmates. This document (updated if necessary) may be useful for that presentation.

Full credit will be awarded for complete and thoughtful responses. If you are not 100% sure of your plans, list some possible ideas. Be sure to call my attention to anything that you’d like me to address in my comments.

Which option are you choosing?

·         Option A: Career communication piece

·         Option B: Workplace training

  
What is your topic or title?  
Describe your target audience: names, titles, relationship to you, communication preferences, etc. Be as specific as possible.  
In a few words, state the purpose of your presentation.  
What kind(s) of images do you plan to use? (e.g., photos, diagrams, screen captures)  
Are there any images you need to create? If so, what tools will you use?  
List at least one specific research source that you plan to use (examples: name of book/document, a specific URL, or name of person). DO NOT LEAVE THIS FIELD BLANK, AND DO NOT GUESS. It is not sufficient to say ‘Internet’ or ‘books’.  
Do you have any other research ideas for your project?  
List any challenges or obstacles that you foresee.  

 

On the next page, outline what you plan to say about your topic, using the basic headings provided. Ensure that you complete all sections. It should be approximately one page long.

Instructions

Step 1: Entirely read all the attached documents and identify main ideas and key points. Then write ONE 300-400 word essay (not one for each reading) reflecting and commenting on the main ideas and key points of the readings, the essay should not simply be a summary. Have at least one citation from each reading WITH THE PAGE NUMBER to support your reflection and comments in the essay.

Step 2: Formulate 2 discussion questions from the readings (2 total, not 2 for each) that can be discussed in class. The answers to these questions should not be able to be easily pulled from the readings. The questions should require some intricate thinking to answer so we can have a discussion in class about them.

As an art and a science, how has your personal nursing philosophy unfolded? Have there been ideas that have challenged your personal values or assumptions?

Personal Nursing Philosophy, Part 2

As you finish this course, your philosophy of nursing has probably changed. As a final review, polish your philosophy of nursing based on your newly acquired knowledge.

Also, write a summary reflection answering the following questions based on the readings and discussions throughout the course:

  • As an art and a science, how has your personal nursing philosophy unfolded?
  • Have there been ideas that have challenged your personal values or assumptions?
  • Have there been ideas that have caused you personal conflict and may lead to deconstructing those dispositions in a critical manner?
  • What actions have you taken that illustrate your personal nursing philosophy?
  • Describe your own definition of the concepts involving the meta-paradigm of nursing.
  • Has your first written philosophy of nursing changed? In what ways?

Your paper that includes both your philosophy and reflection together should be 2–3 pages in length, in APA format, typed in Times New Roman with 12-point font, and double-spaced with 1″ margins. If outside sources are used, they must be cited appropriately.

3. RVW (Restored Volkswagens) buys 15 used VW’s at each of two car auctions each week held at different locations. It then transports the cars to repair shops it contracts with.  When they are restored to RVW’s specifications, RVW sells 10 each to three different used car lots.  There are various costs associated with the average purchase and transportation prices from each auction to each repair shop.  Also there are transportation costs from the repair shops to the used car lots.  RVW is concerned with minimizing its total cost given the costs in the table below.

  • Given the costs below, draw a network representation for this problem. (10 points)
  Repair Shops     Used Car Lots
  S1 S2     L1 L2 L3
Auction 1 550 500   S1 250 300 500
Auction 2 600 450   S2 350 650 450
  • Formulate this problem as a linear programming model. (15 points)

Solute A has a K = 2.5 for an extraction between water (phase 1) and chloroform (phase 2). If 100 mL of a 0.01M solution containing A in water is extracted one time with 400 mL chloroform, what fraction will be extracted? For the same solute, what fraction will be extracted if 5 extractions with 80 mL chloroform each are used (instead of one 400 mL extraction)?

If 100 mL of a 0.01M solution containing A in water is extracted one time with 400 mL chloroform, what fraction will be extracted? For the same solute, what fraction will be extracted if 5 extractions with 80 mL chloroform each are used (instead of one 400 mL extraction)?
  2. A solute is separated on a column (length: 25 cm) with a peak at 25.5 minutes (retention time) and the baseline peak width of 0.7 minutes. Calculate the number of theoretical plates and the theoretical plate height of this column.
  3. Two compounds (compound 1 and compound 2) are separated on a column with retention time being 14.6 minutes and 16.8 minutes, respectively. The baseline peak width of the two peaks is 0.8 minutes and 1.0 minutes, respectively. Are these two compounds separated completely? Why or why not?
  4. Describe the factors that contribute to the chromatographic peak broadening (hint: Why bands spread?).
  5. List the types of liquid chromatography (categorized based on separation principles) and briefly describe the principles used for separation for each type.

Create the corresponding html and php files so that a user can delete Jane Doe from the database from a web browser.

IT/BIFX 530 Applied Database Systems

Consider the banking example we used in the SQL in–class exercises:

  • branch (branch_name, branch_city, assets)
  • customer (customer_name, customer_street, customer_city)
  • account (account_number, branch_name, balance)
  • loan (loan_number, branch_name, amount)
  • depositor (customer_name, account_number)
  • borrower (customer_name, loan_number)

Write PHP code for the following problems:
1. From the previous PHP/SQL Lab 1, you inserted the customer, Jane Doe, into the database. She decided to move so her street and city need to be updated. Create the necessary php files to update Jane Doe’s street to “404 Error Place” and city to “Nowhere” from a web browser. After the update, display all of the customers from the web.
2. We now need to remove Jane Doe from the database. Create the corresponding html and php files so that a user can delete Jane Doe from the database from a web browser. After the deletion, display all of the customers from the web.
