William Mcdonough Argument Analysis
Growing up in this millennial generation has been different from the others. The economy that we live in today has different values than what our parents and grandparents have gone through. Our environment has become a world wide sensation and is a topic of discussion in almost every learning environment. In this day and age you could do so much to help the world, economy and your community. This short documentary discussed the environment and ways for us to not cause much stress on it. Each great thinker came up with their own way to make the planet a better place. Each idea that they came up with were interesting. The one I felt like I could relate to the most is William McDonough. I loved his idea because he touched on the concept of recycling

    I feel like the first sentence of Earl’s statement is true because those two-thirds of adolescent and adult usually start drinking at a young age. That would make it easier for them to get attached to alcohol . Having people take a written test just to get a drinking license could help but it wouldn’t help as much. I also think that stores would lose money because not everyone that drinks is going to have a drinking license. I disagree with Earl Rochester argument.…

    At the first glance, the argument that the author stated appears to be somewhat convincing, but further reflection indicates that it is based on misinterpretation of the statistics. To illustrate particularly on the statistics output in the memorandum, the survey conducted by the Lovin’ Cupful national chain restaurant indicated that 98 percent of the customers are perfectly happy with the switch from the new powdered instant tea to the brewed ones. The imposing numbers from the statistics reveals its unsoundness as valid arguments.…

    This article was written by Maggie Astor, a reporter on The New York Times, a newspaper considered to be one of the most reliable source of information. Astor also has a degree in political science from Barnard College, therefore the information she provided is highly credible. In the article, she reports of a recent Dove ad that caused an outcry in the social media for its racist undertones. Astor quotes Dove’s spokeswoman and her apologetic remarks, stating that the ad was intended to convey a different message and that the company will re-evaluate its internal processes for creating and reviewing content. Critics are unimpressed of the apology. Astor then lists examples from the past of ads that were accused of racism: Intel, Popchips, Nivea…

    In the article,” Nike, Ex-NFL Star Settle 'Lights Out' Trademark Dispute” by Peter Y. Kang, discusses a trademark debate with Ex-NFL Star Linebacker, Shawne Merriman. He is accusing Nike of improperly using the trademark for his nickname “Lights Out.” Merriman, a former NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, sued Nike previously in April 2014, asserting that the company had stolen his "Lights Out" nickname after failing to license it from him. Merriman earned the nickname by knocking opposing players unconscious and was ultimately his known trademark, which he would use on his own merchandise selling. In court documents ” Merriman argued that Nike has continued to infringe the Lights Out mark by, among other things, continuing to sell products to retailer Champs Sports, which is using the phrase to market a collection of all-black Nike apparel.” Until his injuries ended his NFL career, Merriman was signed to Nike endorsement deals by which he argues in his summary judgment motion filed in April that “Nike has made “an obscene amount of money” by infringing his mark.” His evidence is by arguing that the Ninth Circuit case law clearly prohibits Nike from using the exact same…

    Also, while in New Salem, Lincoln, met Ann Rutledge. “Ann was the young daughter of a tavern keeper where Abraham boarded occasionally (Gienapp, 2002. pp. 21).

    Donald L. Niewyk’s fifth and sixth chapters both deal more with outside perspectives and outside reactions than it does with those who were persecuted. The fifth chapter, “Bystander Reactions,” offers four different arguments as to why bystanders acted they way they did during the Holocaust. The sixth chapter, “Possibilities of Rescue,” discusses three different viewpoints on what foreign governments could have done to prevent the Holocaust. These two chapters conclude Niewyk’s book The Holocaust and wrap up the final sequence of events surrounding the Holocaust and the camps.…

    As you mentioned in your post, all adults should be treated with respect. Even if older adults possess cognitive declines or deficits, nurses should still always treat this patients with respect and dignity. Older adults may experience declines in the swift ability to remember recent events, but remote memories are still highly preserved. Furthermore, although ageing does affect the speed in which cognitive and motor processes are preformed, the older adult still can successfully complete these activities, it may just take them longer (Tabloski, 2014). Nurses should never resort to hushing, rushing, or downgrading older adults who may have difficulties completing tasks that younger persons take for granted. As a busy floor nurse,…

    Jerome Murdough, a fifty-six-year-old ex-Marine, was looking for a safe place to sleep in 2013, when he was arrested and charged with trespassing. He was fined over two thousand dollars and, due to his insufficient funds, was sent to Rikers Island—where he met his end. Murdough was in the suicide watch section of the prison due to a history of mental illnesses and was supposed to be periodically checked every fifteen minutes. Autopsies show that he likely died of heatstroke or severe dehydration, which conveys that he was not checked according to protocol (Pearson 1). Jerome Murdough’s death provides dismal insight into the future of the homeless if we continue to make their life-sustaining actions, such as finding a safe place to sleep, illegal…

    My family and I have been living in Glendive, Montana from last 10 years. Glendive town is the ranching and agricultural hub of eastern Montana, but my city has now become a radioactive waste disposal site for North Dakota. In order to extract oil and gases, companies have to drill the earth. Along with Oil and gas, they also get unwanted material, such as radioactive sludge, water, rocks, etc. All the extra material is something they did not drill for and it is something that is hard to get rid of as well. It can’t be buried back on the site, nor they are allowed to dispose it anywhere else in North Dakota.…

    In “if you assign my book don’t censor it’’ published in Kernersville, N.C on November 28, 1999, Mark Mathabane argues the high school that assign his novel ‘’Kaffir Boy’’ should not censor chunks of his book that contributes to the meaning of the novel. This novel is about Mathabanes childhood, living in Africa during the during the apartheid period. There is mature scene and language in this novel that parents would disagree with, but all with reason and purpose. He argues that those parts censored teach lessons, not to take everyday things like food or freedom for granted, to utilize education as a tool to make our society better, and to always to have the urge make the right choices in life. Mathabane uses all three logos, pathos and ethos to support his claim; he also uses his personal experiences to contribute to his argument to not censor parts in his novel that serve a great importance and lesson.…

Drinking can be caused by just trying it for the first time or friends force you to drinking. Some might do it to relax ,others will because they are feeling depressed about something and they will drink until they are drunk. Earl Rochester's argument is stating that they should make a license for alcoholic drinkers and I agree on that topic.…
