Do you agree with Malcom Gladwell's argument that entrepreneurs are predators? In his article, he points to two billionaires: media mogul Ted Turner and hedge fund superstar John Paulson. As Gladwell sees it, both have spotted opportunities and seized them. And they did so with minimal risk. Gladwell cites research by two academics who argue in theor book , From Predators to Icons: Exposing the Myth of the Business Hero , that " rather than being risk-takers, those who are most successful in business are risk-minimizers ". Gladwell's translation: " many entrepreneurs take plenty of risks—but those are generally the failed entrepreneurs " Article: TheSureThing.pdf Webinar link: http://icsb.adobeconnect.com/p3hvu05lcub/ Please note the Blog Grading Matrix applies starting this week (timing and 2 comments). .

THE LAW THAT RIPPED AMERICA IN TWO
One hundred fifty years ago, the Kansas-Nebraska Act set the stage for America's civil
war
Abolitionist John Brown--failed businessman, sometime farmer and fulltime agent, he believed, of
a God more disposed to retribution than mercy--rode into the Pottawatomie Valley in the new
territory of Kansas on May 24, 1856, intent on imposing "a restraining fear" on his proslavery
neighbors. With him were seven men, including four of his sons. An hour before midnight, Brown
came to the cabin of a Tennessee emigrant named James Doyle, took him prisoner despite the
pleadings of Doyle's desperate wife, and shot him dead. After butchering Doyle and two of his
sons with broadswords, the party moved on to kill two other men, leaving one with his skull
crushed, a hand severed and his body in Pottawatomie Creek.
In a sense, the five proslavery settlers were casualties not merely of Brown's bloody-mindedness
but also of a law described by historians William and Bruce Catton as possibly "the most fateful
single piece of legislation in American history." Ironically, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, passed by
Congress 150 years ago this month (100 years to the week before the landmark Supreme Court
decision--Brown v. Board of Education--barring school segregation), was meant to quiet the
furious national argument over slavery by letting the new Western territories decide whether to
accept the practice, without the intrusion of the federal government. Yet by repealing the Missouri
Compromise of 1820, which had outlawed slavery everywhere in the Louisiana Purchase north of
Missouri's southern border (except for Missouri itself), the new law inflamed the emotions it was
intended to calm and wrenched the country apart.
As a result of the legislation's passage, resentments became bloody hostilities, the Democratic
Party lay shattered, a new Republican Party was created and an Illinois lawyer named Abraham
Lincoln embarked on the road to the presidency. Had the law made civil war unavoidable? "I'd
put it this way," says historian George B. Forgie of the University of Texas. "Whatever the
chances of avoiding disunion before Kansas-Nebraska, they fell dramatically as a result of it."

DQ#1How does knowledge of the foundations and history of nursing p.docx
Knowledge of nursing's foundations and history provides context for understanding current practice. Three trends from the nursing timeline that have influenced practice are: 1) Nightingale establishing nursing as a profession in the 1800s, 2) expanding roles and responsibilities of nurses in the 1900s, and 3) increasing emphasis on evidence-based practice and advanced education in recent decades. These trends show the evolution of nursing practice and how it continues to adapt to meet patient needs.

Does popular culture change how society views an idea Or does popul.docx
Does popular culture change how society views an idea? Or does popular culture reinforce dominant ideas, thereby slowing the pace of change?
This week’s Discussion is broken into various threads, each of which focuses on a specific social issue. Your main post should be in the thread that corresponds to the artifact you have chosen for your Final Project. This will allow you to get a good start on your research. However, feel free to respond to classmates in any thread that interests you. Reading about how others approach their selected issues can inspire new ways to think about your own.
To prepare, read through this week’s Learning Resources.
For this Discussion, your Instructor will either
assign groups to threads
or
direct you to choose one thread
from the choices listed for this week.
If you are directed to choose a thread on your own, follow these instructions:
Each thread is limited to a maximum number of students based on class size. A thread will close if the limit is reached. If a thread is closed to new posters, select from the open threads.
Discussion Prompts for Each Thread:
Gender/Sexuality
Popular culture has played a significant role in how gender and sexuality have been viewed over time. The term
gender
refers to masculine and feminine and includes transgender issues. The term
sexuality
refers to relations between people, whether heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual.
One significant popular culture sexuality moment occurred when the title character on the TV show
Ellen
, Ellen Morgan, played by Ellen DeGeneres, came out in a 1997 broadcast as gay. She became the first openly lesbian actress playing an openly lesbian character. Several other TV shows today include openly homosexual characters.
Consider how audiences over time have received TV representations of gender and sexuality. Have popular culture representations of gender and sexuality pushed the issue forward? Or have they reinforced dominant ideas of what is “normal” and thereby slowed down society’s acceptance of a broader understanding of gender and sexuality?
Race
Popular culture has played a significant role in how race has been viewed over time. Different races and ethnicities have frequently been portrayed as stereotypes.
Popular culture can have a profound effect on how an audience views racial issues. For example,
The Cosby Show
, which aired on NBC from 1984 to 1992, was the first time that a successful U.S. television show had portrayed an African-American family as upper middle class.
One of the show’s premises was that it did not deal primarily with race issues. Although themes such as the Civil Rights Movement and African-American art and music were present, it was the representation of an African-American family as professionals with the same family issues as white American families that shifted perceptions of race. What about Latin Americans and South Americans? What about Romani, sometimes referred to as "travelers" or "traveling commu.

THE LAW THAT RIPPED AMERICA IN TWO
One hundred fifty years ago, the Kansas-Nebraska Act set the stage for America's civil
war
Abolitionist John Brown--failed businessman, sometime farmer and fulltime agent, he believed, of
a God more disposed to retribution than mercy--rode into the Pottawatomie Valley in the new
territory of Kansas on May 24, 1856, intent on imposing "a restraining fear" on his proslavery
neighbors. With him were seven men, including four of his sons. An hour before midnight, Brown
came to the cabin of a Tennessee emigrant named James Doyle, took him prisoner despite the
pleadings of Doyle's desperate wife, and shot him dead. After butchering Doyle and two of his
sons with broadswords, the party moved on to kill two other men, leaving one with his skull
crushed, a hand severed and his body in Pottawatomie Creek.
In a sense, the five proslavery settlers were casualties not merely of Brown's bloody-mindedness
but also of a law described by historians William and Bruce Catton as possibly "the most fateful
single piece of legislation in American history." Ironically, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, passed by
Congress 150 years ago this month (100 years to the week before the landmark Supreme Court
decision--Brown v. Board of Education--barring school segregation), was meant to quiet the
furious national argument over slavery by letting the new Western territories decide whether to
accept the practice, without the intrusion of the federal government. Yet by repealing the Missouri
Compromise of 1820, which had outlawed slavery everywhere in the Louisiana Purchase north of
Missouri's southern border (except for Missouri itself), the new law inflamed the emotions it was
intended to calm and wrenched the country apart.
As a result of the legislation's passage, resentments became bloody hostilities, the Democratic
Party lay shattered, a new Republican Party was created and an Illinois lawyer named Abraham
Lincoln embarked on the road to the presidency. Had the law made civil war unavoidable? "I'd
put it this way," says historian George B. Forgie of the University of Texas. "Whatever the
chances of avoiding disunion before Kansas-Nebraska, they fell dramatically as a result of it."

DQ#1How does knowledge of the foundations and history of nursing p.docx
Knowledge of nursing's foundations and history provides context for understanding current practice. Three trends from the nursing timeline that have influenced practice are: 1) Nightingale establishing nursing as a profession in the 1800s, 2) expanding roles and responsibilities of nurses in the 1900s, and 3) increasing emphasis on evidence-based practice and advanced education in recent decades. These trends show the evolution of nursing practice and how it continues to adapt to meet patient needs.

Discussion Question #1
Responses should be 300-500 words and include a citations. Use at least two sources of information to document your work.
From the late Middle Ages through the Enlightenment and sometime after, mathematics was increasingly seen as a way to describe natural phenomenon precisely. Up to the end of the 19th century the universe was seen as mechanical, all of the observed, complex motion and forces seen in nature were thought to be deterministic. How does the modern, scientific world view differ?
Discussion Question #2

Does popular culture change how society views an idea Or does popul.docx
Does popular culture change how society views an idea? Or does popular culture reinforce dominant ideas, thereby slowing the pace of change?
This week’s Discussion is broken into various threads, each of which focuses on a specific social issue. Your main post should be in the thread that corresponds to the artifact you have chosen for your Final Project. This will allow you to get a good start on your research. However, feel free to respond to classmates in any thread that interests you. Reading about how others approach their selected issues can inspire new ways to think about your own.
To prepare, read through this week’s Learning Resources.
For this Discussion, your Instructor will either
assign groups to threads
or
direct you to choose one thread
from the choices listed for this week.
If you are directed to choose a thread on your own, follow these instructions:
Each thread is limited to a maximum number of students based on class size. A thread will close if the limit is reached. If a thread is closed to new posters, select from the open threads.
Discussion Prompts for Each Thread:
Gender/Sexuality
Popular culture has played a significant role in how gender and sexuality have been viewed over time. The term
gender
refers to masculine and feminine and includes transgender issues. The term
sexuality
refers to relations between people, whether heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual.
One significant popular culture sexuality moment occurred when the title character on the TV show
Ellen
, Ellen Morgan, played by Ellen DeGeneres, came out in a 1997 broadcast as gay. She became the first openly lesbian actress playing an openly lesbian character. Several other TV shows today include openly homosexual characters.
Consider how audiences over time have received TV representations of gender and sexuality. Have popular culture representations of gender and sexuality pushed the issue forward? Or have they reinforced dominant ideas of what is “normal” and thereby slowed down society’s acceptance of a broader understanding of gender and sexuality?
Race
Popular culture has played a significant role in how race has been viewed over time. Different races and ethnicities have frequently been portrayed as stereotypes.
Popular culture can have a profound effect on how an audience views racial issues. For example,
The Cosby Show
, which aired on NBC from 1984 to 1992, was the first time that a successful U.S. television show had portrayed an African-American family as upper middle class.
One of the show’s premises was that it did not deal primarily with race issues. Although themes such as the Civil Rights Movement and African-American art and music were present, it was the representation of an African-American family as professionals with the same family issues as white American families that shifted perceptions of race. What about Latin Americans and South Americans? What about Romani, sometimes referred to as "travelers" or "traveling commu.
