Family Participation Is The Essential Ingredient In All Passover Recipes There was always a sense of warmth and support when we sat in the kitchen, whether we were watching Mom (in those days it was generally a Mom thing) prepare some new or familiar dish, or when we were invited to actually participate in the cooking or baking. Not only did we have a chance to be drawn in to the actual task, but we had an extended and supportive opportunity to talk about whatever was on either her mind or on ours. Somehow it was the most encouraging environment for what today we call “communication.” The informality linked with the tastes and smells and the sight of the cooking and baking seemed just right. Today, one of the phenomena of the modern modern American family is that fathers are cooking and baking more than ever before; some claim that it is quickly becoming the number one avocation of men between the ages of 25 and 45.

  • Garlic Mustard Alliaria Petiolata______
    Michigan Department of Natural Resources Michigan Natural Features Inventory, March 2018 Garlic mustard Alliaria petiolata____________________________________________________________________________________ Garlic mustard is native to Europe and parts of western Asia. It was likely introduced to North America for medicinal and herbal uses, as well as erosion control. It was first recorded in 1868 at Long Island, NY, and there were likely multiple introductions. It has spread to at least 37 states and six Canadian provinces. Eight states list it as a noxious weed. It is one of few non‐native invaders in North America that can tolerate shade, and thrives in the forest understory. It grows in a variety of soil types, but does best in moist, well drained soils. It begins its spring growth before natives emerge and forms dense populations by outcompeting native species for sunlight, moisture, nutrients and space. It is alleleopathic, and chemicals released from its roots alter mycorrhizal communities that are critical for many native species including economically valuable trees. Unlike many invaders, garlic mustard reproduces only from seed. It has been implicated in local extirpations of toothworts, which are the primary food source for caterpillars of the West Virginia white butterfly. Suzan Campbell, MNFI Chemicals in the plant appear to be toxic as eggs laid on Fruits/Seeds: garlic mustard failed to hatch. Garlic mustard’s seeds are small, shiny, dark brownish‐ Identification black and they are held in long narrow capsules. A single plant can produce thousands of seeds. The seeds are Habit: viable within a few days of flowering and remain viable Garlic mustard is a cool season herbaceous biennial.

  • Cultural Identity Construction in Russian-Jewish Post-Immigration Literature
    Cultural Identity Construction in Russian-Jewish Post-Immigration Literature by Regan Cathryn Treewater A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Comparative Literature University of Alberta © Regan Cathryn Treewater, 2017 ii Abstract The following dissertation examines narratives of immigration to Western Europe, Israel and North America authored by Russian-speaking writers of Jewish decent, born in the Soviet Union after World War II. The project seeks to investigate representations of resettlement experiences and cultural identity construction in the literature of the post- 1970s Russian-Jewish diaspora. The seven authors whose selected works comprise the corpus of analysis write in Russian, German and English, reflecting the complex performative nature of their own multilayered identities. The authors included are Dina Rubina, Liudmila Ulitskaia, Wladimir Kaminer, Lara Vapnyar, Gary Shteyngart, Irina Reyn, and David Bezmozgis. The corpus is a selection of fictional and semi- autobiographical narratives that focus on cultural displacement and the subsequent renegotiation of ‘self’ following immigration. In the 1970s and final years of Communist rule, over one million Soviet citizens of Jewish heritage immigrated to Western Europe, Israel and North America. Inhospitable government policies towards Soviet citizens identified as Jewish and social traditions of anti-Semitism precipitated this mass exodus. After escaping prejudice within the Soviet system, these Jewish immigrants were marginalized in their adopted homelands as Russians. The following study of displacement and relocation draws on Homi Bhabha’s theories of othering and unhomeliness. The analyzed works demonstrate both culturally based othering and unhomely experiences pre- and post-immigration resulting from relegation to the periphery of society.
