1. How would you characterize Martha Stewart’s initial public relations response to the charges against her? Martha Stewart’s initial response was inappropriate. She should have shifted from her usual image of being blunt, stern and tight-lipped to a more accommodating. She did not answer the press when asked and instead went online later to issue her response. Her stance conveyed an image of aloofness. It was time to speak but instead she stayed silent. She needed to reassure her supporters and stakeholders that she is fine and they will overcome the problems. 2. What key public relations ...

Increasingly, however, important issues regarding media consumption and materialism have emerged in recent decades. As such, this study examines the neuroscience of human emotions, the use of recreational substances, and the ...

Childhood depression is an emotional and mental disorder that in some ways is little different than adult depression.

RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF ESSAY ON “Students and Money: In Their Own Words”

The first Rhetorical device I see in the Essay on "Students and Money: In Their Own Words." By Karpeck, Griffin is the device “PATHOS” which is an appeal to emotion, and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response. I consider the author is very much successful in this regard. In the first few lines itself he appeals to the emotion by saying that his friends smirk at him by looking at his need to do that menial job and he too has taken up the job reluctantly (i.e. he is forced ...

There are some who are quick to point out how women are photographed in other places that are not just the home or some sexual setting. Take the famous picture of the woman in the blue overalls saying “We Can Do It!” that appeared during wartime for example.

Not only that but they helped to provide the materials that the soldiers needed over on the battlefield. The other interesting thing about this ...

Nowadays, many people are quite familiar with the “shadow business” that has many as many different directions and one of them is a prostitution.

Teenage boys may feel that girls are aliens, because they seem different, but in Neil Gaiman’s short Sci-Fi story, “How to talk to girls at parties”, the girls really are from another planet.

Throughout the story, Enn, from whose perspective the story is told, is so focused on trying to talk to the girls he meets ...

Coming-of-age novel The House on Mango Street composed by Sandra Cisneros represents a mosaic of various events that shaped life of Latina girl named Esperanza Cordero.

It should be mentioned that inspiration for writing this novel was Cisneros`s life along with stories from people she knew or met. With this in mind one may observe mixture of semi-real and semi-fictional stories that reveal reality of ...

A number of office approaches can be used to seeing an adolescent in the office. It is, therefore, important for the physician to adopt a technique that the teenager feels they are best comfortable with. Confidentiality forms the foundation of any therapeutic relationship with an adolescent. Without proper clarification of the confidentiality limits, the physician may end up getting incomplete or incorrect information during the history taking process (Batanova & Loukas, 2012). My preferred approach when dealing with an adolescent is seeing the teenager alone first and later asking the parents to join the conversation. However, before the day of ...

I remember my first encounter with one of Salvador Dali’s paintings very vividly. The painting was the one with the leaping tigers. One of my friends was going through their luggage that was in a suitcase in my room and the card with the image fell.

At that time, we were all manga and pop music oriented. This seemed out of place. She said that it was her ...

A) The right to choose what happens to our bodies, the medical treatments we want to opt for and understanding the pros and cons of our decision, is as fundamental a human right as the right to have access to food and water.
