Some retailers start Black Friday sales earlier because of their intimidation of losing sales to others. Bill Martin, an advisor in major shopping chains, states, “We don’t think it’s the consumer saying ‘Open up earlier, open up more.’ We think it’s really the retailers trying to get at the wallet and pull them into the store - to get to the money before it’s all spent.” To clarify, Martin affirms that the

That’s one argument. But where, exactly, are consumers---particularly teenagers---supposed to find alternatives?” ” (Zinczenko, 2015, p463). I believe that he try to make argument that fast food restaurant are everywhere and the alternative are limited. Once he make clear of the problem and who he believe that is the main responsible, then he presents the argument about the lack of approach that this industry has to try to provide consumers with proper information in order for then to be able to make the right choice.

Wallace, David Foster "This is Water" Kenyon College Commencement Speech 2005 The general argument by David Foster Wallace in his work "This is Water" is that sometimes the most obvious realities are the hardest to comprehend. More specifically, he argues that thinking negatively is not a choice but a natural setting and we need to start thinking cognitively and outside the box. Wallace performs this speech for a group of graduating college students to prepare them for the future life they are about to embark on. He includes the grocery store example so that the reader's can connect to the story because they have gone through that situation themselves; he is trying to connect to the audience.

The one thing that any author must do when writing any sort of essay is to make it comprehensible to the reader. In order to achieve this, the author must utilize anything to get their point across or else the writing would be futile. In Turkeys in the Kitchen , Dave Barry gives his own personal stories about his Thanksgiving and how he feels that men aren’t as useful as women in the terms of the culinary arts (kitchen), Barry’s flippant tone and his use of rhetorical devices such as similes and irony bring forth a light hearted explanation of stereotypes between men and women as well as describing how men are useless in the kitchen. The uses of similes throughout the essay give purpose by showing how men are useless.

1: Ramzan’s Argument with Akhmed (322-327) Ramzan argues with Akhmed to convince him not to give himself up to the feds, demonstrating his camaraderie despite his distress with Havaa’s disappearance. More than friendship, he wants to relay to Akhmed the torturous qualities of the Landfill. Although Akhmed believes that he should “owe Dokka my silence more than I owe you anything” (322), Ramzan believes that “inside us there is a word we cannot pronounce and that is who we are” (322). He thinks that Akhmed is out of his mind, and doesn’t understand what he’s feeling, but still doesn’t want him to think he owes Dokka his life.

For example, it was expressed in his repeated addresses to readers. His choice of words, like “do we really expect to stay afloat… [or] our fault lies not so much with our economy” (Fridman), shows the author does not try to blame other peoples, while admits all parts of the society, including “nerds and geeks”, should participate in the problem solving. The emotional appeal appears from the beginning of the text, as it was mentioned above. “There is something very wrong with the system of values in a society that has only derogatory terms” (Fridman), the author starts with the expression of his negative opinion about the situation. He uses the essay to flip reader to his side.

This comic strip of Snoopy is a great example of the tenet, Simplifying Life. Transcendentalists looked at the world in a different way, they do not dwell on the issues they run into, they move on.

“There is no perfect moment,” says Will Allen, a proactive urban farmer and activist, in his book The Good Food Revolution (p.39). Allen says this quotation in the context of his advice to “get started.” That is, stop talking about doing something and be a doer! Just as Will Allen states: “Idealism can sometimes lead to inaction,” I can identify with this notion (p. 39). There are many pursuits in my life that I often talk about doing but never actually follow through with.

The “Facial Recognition”, article on who’s watching you in public is compared to the book 1984 by George Orwell; by its use of notification to the citizens of personalized identification without consent. For example, within this book all citizens are watched through the telescreens on critique facial expressions, suspicious body language, and use of self documentation. I am strictly against these practices that 's used in this country although, it is bringing more store sales it still should not betray privacy of a customer. A customer is always bound to change their mind on certain perceptions in what they purchase in a store. With this use of betrayal of privacy within a store I believe that in today’s society they will progress even larger.

The number just isn’t enough to build a bias. Alcohol or prescription pills aren’t included in those findings, and alcohol and prescription drugs are very much something that can be abused…heavily. It is unfortunately very common for those addicted, to exchange groceries for a smaller amount of cash and use it to buy drugs, alcohol, cigarettes. I could explain for hours the ins and outs of the TANF program but in short summary, it is very political and contradicting. If I could’ve know anything prior to hearing the sides of Larry and Russell, I’d like to have read the aspe article from the U.S. Department of Human and Health Services.

“While you can’t control what happened to you, you can control how you can react”-From Business to community, a man named Gary Vaynerchuck when people leave a negative review on his book called “Crush it and the Thank You economy” on amazon instead of ignoring it or responding a negative comment back he resorts to the right choice and ask the reviewer to talk more about their experience, this shows a great demonstration of how to control how you react on stuff that hurt us or anger us. John Wooden quote and Gary Vaynerchuck is amazing because they way we react shows the time of person we choose to be, and sometimes reacting the wrong way shows us the type of person we oppose to become, and who we are gets us through since others judge what type of characteristic traits you present towards them and other people which is what John Wooden wants to prepare us for. What John Wooden had was his ability to take a complicated issue, distill it, so that make little things become big things that happens, for instance he imparted each of his former players life lessons far more enduring than any plays and shots, he taught his players a way of life—his way of

At this point he said, and I quote, "It sounds like you might be, uh, maybe, poking around in business I shouldn 't probably be getting into...", and, if I didn 't need help finding any "particular items", he pointed me at the exit and threateningly intoned that I 'd be wise to take it. Disturbed and shaken by the experience, I decided to beat a retreat. I intended to walk around the parking lot a bit more so he wouldn 't see my vehicle tags, but after several minutes it became clear that the man, as well as another male Walmart team member, were watching me until I did. It was at this point, at roughly 1328 hours, I entered my vehicle and left the parking lot quickly, exiting the eastern egress of the
