In the article The Web is Dead. Long Live the Internet, which was published in the September 2010 issue of Wired Magazine, the authors Chris Anderson and Michael Wolff (2010) present two perspectives on why the popularity of the Web is declining compared to the popularity of services or apps. They contend that on one hand, the reason for this decline is the users or the consumers whose needs are changing and becoming ever more demanding (i.e. “Blame Us”). On the other hand, they also contend that another reason would be the innovations that are being constantly developed by ...

The research conducted by Roy B. Van Arsdale and Randel T. Cox about their idea of the origins of the Mississippi embayment was based on other theories, work, and models produced by other scientists. The theories that the pair presented in the article published in the Scientific American magazine were easily understood by the non-scientist. The article seemed to lack any real scientific data from the pair that was original or from the two conducting any geological evidence of their own. This writer could understand why the magazine chose to publish the research because it did a good job ...

Article Analysis

It is an interesting undertaking to study how valuable different people treat and hail the different components of life that attracts their hearts. Games particularly and bowling to be specific is one which cruises a lot of fans both loving to watch as well as to play. Paul Rudd observes the environment he finds himself in and tries to link it with the game he loves most. Considering all the activities one would find himself deeply entrenched in during the day, it would be to some degree, disturbing, why bowling would be the best of a choice to a forty-year old actor. ...

Essay Review – Greed Viewed as Good

- The introductory paragraph of the essay comes across as sharp and factual that may be off-putting to some readers. The focus is also not on the topic itself but on supporting examples. The tone could have been less impersonal.
- The thesis statement is clearly stated in the introduction though it appears in the middle of the paragraph.
- There is no mention of the target audience by the end of the introduction. I believe that students and philosophers will take an active interest in the topic. Moreover, the topic can hold the attention of sociologists.

Discussion 1 - Analyzing Point of View

A point of view is considered as the narration of a given story from a given perspective of the first, second, and third person. The importance of point of view is determining from what perspective a reader will hear a given story. Through the point of view, the narrator gets to revel given information to the readers. A writer can control how the reader understands the story by describing well his or her point of view (Clugston, 2010, p.74). Unlike a short film, which has picture, a short story calls for imagination through different perspectives or viewpoints that are provided by the writer. It is ...

Fair and Tender Ladies, like Lee Smith’s novel The Color Purple, is a literary work in the form of letters. The letters in question are written by the novel’s female protagonist, Ivy Rowe, and through them the reader gets an intimate account of her life. Like other letter novels, Smith creates the impression that the letters are written over time, as narrations of experiences shortly after they take place. Moreover, Smith persuades the readers to perceive that Ivy writes the letters in the middle of experience, or at least while she is in the middle of construing their ...

Judging the paper based on Marius’ crucial steps to writing a splendid essay as well as the proposed writing process that would distinguish an excellent paper out of a mass, the Heroine’s Choice is a well-written, well-organized paper that abides by what defines a paper of great value.

She belonged to the Yankton Sioux tribe and was sent off to study in a missionary school at the age of eight.

At the time he wrote the article Why You Should Fear Your Toaster More Than Nuclear Power, Taylor Pearson was a sophomore student at the University of Texas, Austin. He prepared this article as a public argument for an academic assignment, developing an informal argument on nuclear power, as he indicates on his LinkedIn profile (Taylor Pearson). Although the writing is an informal argument, the author of this text is nevertheless credible and trustworthy due to his academic record, to his interest for world affair or political issues and his transparent, clear and accurate writing style. In the analyzed article, Pearson ...

The Brain-Damaged and the Emergence of Truth
The President’s Speech graces with a comical paradox of how truth exists among people with disabilities in speech and understanding. It describes the odd perceptions of aphasiacs and people suffering from agnosia on words and how they create an alternative framework through which they make sense of every word that they hear. It is the acceptance of human’s susceptibility to words that consider brain-damaged people seemingly nearer to truth than normal ones. In the case of the President’s Speech, it is the pure and uninfluenced reception of either physical ...

The poem starts in the autumn garden as the writer is pulling the last young onions from the cold brown ground. The closing day flames and he glimpses a cardinal. After pulling the onions, he washes them and drinks the water flowing out from the icy metal spigot. This imagery provides a series of acute contrasts between many of the poem’s elements.

‘The Hanging’ (1931)

‘Shooting an Elephant’ (1936)

‘Why I Write’ (1946)

Having read these three essays by Orwell and noting the dates they were published, I would have to say that what is important to Orwell does change to a certain extent, but some important things remain constant. The main thing that changes is his political awareness. In ‘Why I Write’ he states that.

Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism, as I understand it.

He makes clear that his experiences as a police officer in Burma and his subsequent experiences of ...

The given statement of opinion, that appeared in newspaper call-in column portrays complete breakdown of logic. It is strewn with fallacious arguments, some of which cannot stand the test of deductive reasoning at all. To be able to identify such fallacies, it is imperative that we have a clear picture of what deductive reasoning entails as well as what fallacious arguments or statements really are (Vincent 2005).
Zearfsky and David (2002) say that deductive reasoning is the type of reasoning that subjects deductive arguments to an evaluation process in order to draw conclusions. Sets of hypotheses are evaluated to ...

Joana MacKay’s article titled “Organ Sales Will Save Lives” comes across to be an argumentative piece that aims to persuade the avid readers into being in compliance with the opinion that is voiced by the author. It needs to be noted that MacKay goes on to utilize a number of techniques of persuasion so as to influence the readers of the article. A close introspection of the intricacies of penning this article would enable one to have a much better understanding of the matter. It has to be reckoned that the writing deals with a very controversial topic ...

The writer of the article (Aviva Dove-Viebahn) tries to give a review of a television series known as Mad Men. The series setting is in the last century, the 1960’s. I actually think that the title of the article should be “Feminism in a Man’s World”. This is because there was zero level of gender sensitivity at the time. Women were not held with esteem at all. We can argue that we have come a long way since then, because Americans are now more gender sensitive.
Aviva’s remarks, in “Feminism in a Mad World”, makes clear the stereotyped activities women ...

Introduction This paper outlines and in details explains how the modern –day Holmes applies or extends the cinematic concepts borrowed from the early classical conventions of Conan Doyle. The comparison and contrast are crucial in understanding whether changes, extensions or imitation of the previous works have altered or improved the literature. Therefore, this rhetorical analysis is geared towards examining the characters, scenes, settings, plots, themes, and literature style of the two chronologically divided works. Because written texts and TV series are meant to satisfy the target audience, the bottom-line of scenic details is to pass the messages to the ...

The British novelist, critic and essayist Virginia Stephen Woolf is considered one of the most authentic writers of England in the period between the First and the Second World Wars. Being discontented with the novels on the basis of the well-known, actual and apparent, Woolf went on her own experimental way. Walking along this path, the writer discovered a more internal, subjective interpretation of life experience, which is reflected in all of her creative works. It is also worth mentioning about the impact of such famous people such as Henry James, Marcel Proust and James Joyce on her work. ...

In Robin Evans’s “In Front of lines that leave Nothing Behind,” the writer argues that architectural reviewers tend to perceive architecture as forms of “iconology” that needs to be examined to determine the “meaning” that exists “behind, beneath, or within” the “subjects” that they are critiquing (482). Furthermore, Evans explains that the “critic” or architectural reviewer often goes in “search of origins, essences, intentions, motives, causes” of the “appearances” presented by an architectural design (482). However, one may not always depend on the “architect’s” “intention” to “orient” his work “towards us,” especially as ...

In Gilles Deleuze’s “The Diagramme” and Michel Foucault’s “Panopticism,” organization is connected in some manner to the creative process. In Foucault’s article, spatial organization is interpreted as extending one’s power rather than representing it. On the other hand, Deleuze’s argument reveals that the diagram, which is removed from “optical organization,” is used by the artist to suggest to him how he should create his work (Deleuze 1). Therefore, it can be argued that although both readings focus on the importance of organization both authors have different approaches in dealing with ...

Dear Mr. Gigot,

I am writing this letter to discuss the WSJ article named “All Clear on Recession Risk. Not Yet” by Greg Ip which was published on March 4, 2016 (Ip 1). The article is not as informative as much it tends to illustrate a sense of clairvoyance in the writer’s judgement and his forewarning of the imminent economic apocalypse for the nation. It is needless to mention that the article’s theme has been excessively pessimistic in predicting the odds of a recession not hitting the US economy in the near future. My inference on the article’s theme ...

The rising cases of Zika virus infections around the world is an issue of concern among health stakeholders. According to McNeil et al. (2016), The W.H.O has declared the virus to be an international public health issue because the virus has significant effects on the development unborn babies. It is being feared that by the end of the year 2016, about four million people will be infected with the Zika virus globally. These have prompted the health experts at the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention in the US to persuade expectant mothers not to visit countries that have ...

Many scholars past and present will all define poetry as to how they perceive that piece of literary art. Nemerov (2016) suggest what it means “Poetry, literature that evokes a concentrated imaginative awareness of experience or a specific emotional response through language chosen and arranged for its meaning, sound, and rhythm.”

“Mrs. Dalloway” is a novel written by Virginia Woolf published in 1925 by Hogarth Press in United Kingdom. It is one of the best known novels in the history of fiction, and a best from Virginia Woolf. The novel is basically a combination of two earlier short stories from the writer named “Mrs. Dalloway in Bond Street” and “The Prime Minister”. The novel discusses the preparations made by Clarissa for a party she is hosting in the evening. While reading the novel, the story travels in the past that gives reader an understanding of the past life of Clarissa. The ...

- The introduction of the essay seems too rhetorical to be interesting. It is also too wordy at the expense of clarity. The author should consider using simpler language that readers will be able to relate to.
- The thesis statement is quite clear – the youngest child is ‘luckier’ than the oldest in a family’. The author has repeated it twice within the paragraph. However, the introduction does not include a summary of supporting facts, other than the author’s personal experience, to back the thesis.
- Although the author does not explicitly state the purpose of ...

2. Relationship between storytelling and religion in Life of Pi
With one voice, logicians and researchers through scholarly history have avowed the key relationships that exist between storytelling and religion. Basing on the relationship exuded between storytelling and religion, Martel wants the readers to emancipate the Life of Pi through a contemptuous perspective, whereby they can decide to have faith in it at the desired rate, almost as one can choose to trust in God because it is a common stance in the society (thesis). The young man, Patel, grasps this motivation in different sectors. He turns into a devotee of ...

The conditions highlighted in the book have many causes. The public was responsible for some of the things that were happening to them. It is their greed that led to unscrupulous behavior where people had to take things from an individual before the same was done to them. The public helped form this culture. During the wedding of the immigrants, people take their beer and food without paying, yet nobody does anything to stop it (Sinclair, 2). In the factories, they are paid poorly and treated unfairly but they still wake up to go to work. The public is ...

According to Jay Wilkinson, the writer of Nonprofit Fundraising: Twelve Key steps to writing a grant proposal, the art of writing a grant proposal is not for the faint-hearted. It requires perseverance and determination. Grant writing, according to Wilkinson involves twelve major steps. The first step involves spelling out the need for the proposal in question. In spelling out this need, it is important to determine the project ideas, which have a potential for garnering funds. Secondly, it is important for a project to differentiate itself from other projects, which have already been written. A project must be unique ...

In the English-speaking cinematography, 1995 was the year of Jane Austen. As if trying to celebrate the 220th anniversary of the writer, who since the 20th century became to some extent even a cult figure, the filmmakers created just three versions of her novels “Sense and Sensibility”, “Pride and Prejudice” and “Emma”. I like the Jane Austen’s creativity and read almost all her books. I saw a lot of different adaptations of the book “Pride and Prejudice”, and by and large I like all of them. After seeing the film adaptation of “Sense and Sensibility”, directed by Ang ...

According to John Arend, Mike Benkert, Audrey deFilippis and Saretta Tillmaand, when the Commerzbank building opened its doors in 1997, the “53-story” edifice became the one of the “tallest” buildings located in Europe (1). Nevertheless, the edifice’s distinctiveness did not come from its height, but, rather, it came from the way in which it combined “form, inventiveness, and technical expertise” (Arend, Benkert, deFilippis, & Tillmaand 1). The design and construction of the Commerzbank saw the “[b]reaking away from the American model of deep-planned, air-conditioned structures” that have a “central service core” (Arend, Benkert, deFilippis, & ...

Software testing refers to the assessments done on a site to determine if it at par with the set design requirements that had been set initially for a process called verification and validation to confirm that there are no errors (Writer and Editor for the Yoursecondfifty Com/Magazine Mike Harwood, 2015). Website vulnerability, on the other hand, refers to the loopholes that are present on a website which may lead to its attack by hackers because of its weak structure (Chandola, 2014).

Bernard Tschumi’s Parc de la Villete is a good example of deconstruction in architecture because it correctly illustrates how an architect, similar to a writer, can use rhetorical devices, such as “repetition, distortion, or juxtaposition” (Tschumi 146). In the above photograph, the fountain, named La Géode, does not look like a traditional fountain. The shape of the fountain is distorted and allows the water to spray downwards instead of upwards.

Peter Eisenman explains that modernism “‘changed the relationship between man and object away from an object whose primary purpose was to speak about man to one which was concerned with its own objecthood’” (qtd. in Eisenman 234). In addition, Eisenman indicates that the building, influenced by the principles of architecture, is able to communicate about its “‘objecthood’” through a system of symbols (qtd. in Eisenman 234). Hence, based on a critical assessment of the writings of Eisenman and Mario Gandelsonas it can be said that the idea of perceiving edifices as being similar to textual ...

As Jessica Lahey, a former teacher and writer who frequently contributes to The New York Times, says, “an education in cultural literacy can empower those who have been traditionally excluded in civic debate. It equips citizens and non-citizens alike in the vocabulary and knowledge they will need to understand American culture,” there is no doubt that unless a person understands the basis on which an argument or view is being expressed, the entire effort of that debate. Unless citizens and non-citizens are educated on the history of America and how culture is formed, it becomes difficult for them to understand American ...

Barbara Ehrenreich’s presents a clear and concise account of the methods that millions of American uses to survive the economic struggles in American. In addition, the 2001 book, “Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting by in America” analyzes how individuals survive on minimum paying jobs. Ehrenreich postulates that even though these individuals work under poor economic conditions, there is a strong “work ethic” present. But, this work ethic does not help to provide the basic necessities of transportation, food, and shelter. For those individuals who work in hotels, restaurants, retail stores, and a number of other service jobs the wages are not ...

Richness is a word defining the state of being rich. However, there have always been lots of speculations and thinking on what being rich really means or what it should stand for. Richness entails the meaning of material wealth but at the same time it is a concept which entails the meaning of personal wealth and happiness. People have always separated these two concepts believing that material wealth does not necessarily go hand in hand with emotional, psychological happiness. Nevertheless, there has always been the knowledge of how miserable can poverty turn people to be. The everlasting question has always been ...

As Hemingway wrote after the World War I, many of his stories focus on the depression and despair which was caused by the war. Hemingway portrays how people lost faith in themselves and in God.

Primary elective Cesarean Section is safer for infant and mother

Possible resolutions – Evidence based studies should be conducted

Ethical dilemmas appear as moral conflicts everyday in nursing practice interventions. The anticipation of every nurse is that one day while engaged in this vocation an ethical dilemma will surface. Contemporary nursing practice forces the nurse to be a patient advocate also, besides execution of daily tasks to enhance life. Maternal infant nursing, as any other part of the discipline form time to time, forges ethical considerations at all levels of practice. In this discourse the writer will advance an argument for primary elective caesarean section and how ...

Analysis - Giovanni Boccaccio, "The Onset of the Black Death"

Boccaccio's Decameron is a masterpiece of early 14th century European literature; its bawdiness and its sheer wit are a wonderful, funny indicator of what life was like in 14th century Italy. However, the central framing device of the book itself - the Black Plague, which ravaged Europe around the time of the book's setting and publication - plays a somber but vital role in this important work. The importance of the plague to the story is no less evident than in the introduction, which demonstrates the awesome power of the sickness. Boccaccio's account of the plague during the time it hit Florence ...

Introduction
Relativism is a concept that forges reality advancing assumptions which declare nothing to be absolutely true or valid. This is so because what has been proven true or valid is always based on personal perceptions which may be influenced by various predisposing factors. Often they may be merely subjective sentiments which are not universal since they only represent the view point of a few, the minority, majority or imposition of a dictator (Baghramian, 2004)
When conceptualized within the context of morality it impinges on the framework that ...

MEDIA FALLACIES

A fallacy is a type of argument that is similar to good reasoning though news readers find it not to be persuasive. Media fallacies are categorized into three levels, that is: top level, middle level and low level (Stonecipher, 1990, p. 5; Cohen, 2009, p. 88; Tindale, 2007)

The recent story of a car crash into a restaurant with people clearly had some fallacies. Deductions on media fallacies can be derived from the article regarding the Raleigh accident.
