GUIDELINES

Topic of the essay:

How does the character Lourdes Puente in Cristina Garcia’s novel Dreaming in Cuban experience exile from Cuba to the United States?

 

Thesis will be your concrete answer to this question, including naming three ways Lourdes experiences exile.

 

When we talk about how someone experiences exile, we want to think about these issues:

 

1. What led the person to go into exile form the home country? And so, what circumstances led Lourdes to go into exile from Cuba to the United States? What was happening in Cubato her country, to her family, and to her directly?

 

2. How does the person feel about the new country? And so, what do we know about how Lourdes feels about the United States? What does she do and say that SHOWS us how she feels about her new life?

 

3. How does the person view the country he or she fled? And so, what do we know about how Lourdes feels about Cuba? What does she do and say that SHOWS us how she feels about Cuba when she returns for a visit?

 

Your essay should answer these questions, each question answered in ONE body paragraph.

 

This means the OUTLINE of your essay should be as follows below:

NOTE: each small letter is a sentence

 

NOTE: all the paragraphs should be LONGER than five sentences

 

NOTE: each body paragraph should have only one or two quotes, you decide WHERE

THOUGHTS ABOUT LOURDES 

 

Remember that we have listed NUMEROUS quotes where we see how Lourdes feels about Cuba, starting early in the book when we first meet Lourdes in the third chapter. We learn even more when Pilar heads for Miami in chapter 4.

 

Think back to where we learn about how the Cuban Revolution effected Lourdes’ family and about the rape she survived.

 

Think about what Lourdes does when she comes to New York. What does she call her bakery? How does she envision the future of her bakery? Who does she invite to attend gatherings at her bakery?

 

Think about how Lourdes reacts to being in Cuba. What does she say? What does Pilar tell us about Lourdes’ reactions to Cuba.

 

 

FROM WIKIPEDIA SUMMARY OF THE THEME OF EXILE

 

You cannot quote from this, but use this brief summary to help you understand the topic.

 

Exile

This novel explores the impact that exile has on those in exile and those left behind. The exile in the novel reflects the real exile experienced by thousands of Cubans, as the Puente family flees Cuba in the wake of the revolution just as many did in 1961. Celia acutely feels the absence of her granddaughter in Cuba, and she is saddened by the nomadic existence of her children, but she is powerless to change these things. Lourdes uses the exile as an attempt to ignore her past in Cuba and bury the memory of her rape. Her vision of Cuba is frozen at that point in the past. Only in her return to Cuba is Lourdes able to revisit the memory of her rape and her lost child. Pilar grows up with a longing to return to her grandmother in Cuba without knowing the reality of life in Cuba beyond her memories. She too is powerless for a long time to reach Cuba—even her attempt at running away fails. She is distanced further from her family roots and her cultural heritage due to her mother’s unwillingness to speak of them. This distance is exemplified by Pilar’s distance from the Spanish language, as she only is able to dream in Spanish after she makes a return visit to Cuba.

 

Lourdes Puente: Lourdes is the eldest child of Celia and Jorge, the wife of Rufino, and the mother of Pilar. After beginning her exile in the U.S., Lourdes becomes an entrepreneur, owning her own bakery. She is a strong supporter of capitalism and U.S. patriotism, and she despises El Líder and what he has done to Cuba. 

Need response to other student discussion post

Decide if an option is a derivative security. Give
reasons to support your decisions.

1. An Option within the derivative is a privilege that is
sold by one party to another, but is not obligate to buy or sell a security at
a certain time. The Option has a premium that must be paid. There is risk that
come with options and they are complex securities. Derivatives has been around
and use within the farming industry. There are other names that are use with
this option. The Put Option is one and has the right to sell stock at a
specified price. This option is for a limited time; American Option are at any
time but has an expiration date. The European Option ban be exercised on the
expiration date.  

Compare and contrast options for warrants and calls in terms of pricing, and
explain their most important differences. 

2 .Warrants and call options are similar in that they both
give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy a stock share. With a
warrant, it’s at a fixed price directly from the company for a pre-defined
amount of time. With a call option it’s at a set price for a defined amount of
time. A major difference between warrants and call option is that warrants are
issued by a specific company, and call options are issued by an options
exchange. Another difference is that warrants usually have longer maturity
periods than a call option. A third difference is that warrants cause dilution
because a company has to issue new stock when a warrant is exercised.
Exercising a call option does not require issuing new stock because a call
option is a derivative instrument on an existing common share of the company.

A SILICONE PAD IS MOLDED TO AN ALUMINUM DIE THAT IS CONNECTED TO A BASE. THAT BASE IS FASTENED TO AN ALUMINUM BLOCK WITH A HEATING ELEMENT IN THE CENTER  THAT CAN PRODUCE QGEN  MAXIMUM OF  700 W. THE ALUMINUM HEATING ELEMENT BLOCK IS CONNECTED TO A STAINLESS STEEL SUPPORT STRUCTURE THAT ACTS AS A HEAT SINK. 

1. WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF SILICONE PAD?  

2. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE THE ALUMINUM SYSTEM TO GET TO STEAD-STATE?  

3. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR THE SILICONE PAD TO REACH STEADY-STATE? SHOW ENERGY BALANCE AND INCLUDE RADIATION AND CONVECTION EFFECTS.

4. THE PAD NEEDS MAKES CONTACT WITH A POLYESTER SUBSTRATE  (HEAT SINK ) OF SAME AREA AND MUST REMAIN IN CONTACT FOR 30 SECONDS. ASSUMING HEAT TRANSFER TO POLYESTER IS PURE CONDUCTION, WILL THE HEAT TRANSFER BE SUFFICIENT TO EXPOSE THE SUBSTRATE TO A CONSTANT 118 C IN ORDER TO CURE? IF NOT, WHAT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED AND HOW?

ASSUMPTIONS:

START TEMPERATURES = 25 C

CONVECTION & RADIATION EFFECTS NEED TO BE INCLUDED 

    – (USE SIDE AREA FOR ALUMINUM ALL ) 

    – (USE ALL AREA FOR SILICONE)

MAX TEMPERATURE TD = 200 C

MAX TEMPERATURE Ts =  118 C
