    The claim that the farmer is using in this video is that "Fatter , Bigger, and Cheaper" livestock isn't better than grass-fed livestock. The rhetorical appeal they used in this video is Logos due to the everything they talk about that is a system for farmer markets and farms. Some evidence that shows he used logos, is when he talked about the way they grow their livestock is in disagreement with the USDA when they have been successful by paying attention to the ecological problems.

    In an article titled "Stay-at-home-dads" Glenn Stacks addressed the topic from a different view. Sterotypes for gender roles could be harmful to the relationship a couple has. Starting off the stereotype of men being the provider of the family causes them to focus on their career to ensure the safety of his family. This cause the other partner to focus on raising the children.

As Glenn states with his own family, both partners are happier taking on the role of the other gender. Glenn's wife had a career that she was very interested in and Glenn didn't want to miss all the first his…

    The Three Rhetorical Appeals are the three main points by which people are influenced, and it allows you to effectively evaluate different texts and arguments for their oratorical strategies. The first, Logos, is the method of reason, logic, or facts. Any type of argument which appeals to someone’s rational side is appealing to logos. Second, Ethos, an approach of credibility, authority, or character, appeals to demonstrate the author’s expertise, trustworthiness, and honesty and tries to put the author in a more positive position to the audience. Lastly, Pathos, this is a strategy of affect and emotions. Pathos appeals to an audience’s emotions of anger, excitement, or sorrow. These three points are important to the audience to analyze the…

    Singer’s article criticizes factory farms for industrializing their farming practices and sacrificing good animal husbandry practices for increases in production. Singer indicates the ridiculous amount of animals affected by factory farm mistreatment by stating “[t]he use and abuse of animals raised for food far exceeds, in sheer numbers of animals affected, any other kind of mistreatment” (“Down on” 19). Singer evaluates the reasoning behind factory farmer’s unethical practices, and concludes that “farming is competitive and the methods adopted are those that cut costs and increase production” (“Down on” 20). By cutting costs and increasing production rates factory farming industry workers accumulate more wealth, and consumers are able consume more meat then physically necessary. One can evaluate this luxury the “Principle of Disproportionality” which states that “[a]ctions that meet nonbasic or luxury needs of humans are prohibited when they aggress against the basic needs of animals” (Sterba…

Bradbury’s purpose is to promote the idea that a person should have the courage to listen to their own beliefs and thoughts of happiness rather than to blend in with society. He adopts a disoriented and poetic tone in order to appeal to similar feelings and experiences on a non-realistic scale in his young adult readers.…

    In modern day America, our culture has begun to revolve around traveling and moving from place to place. Never staying in one place long enough to get to know the land. It is because of this new trend that Wallace Stegner wrote his essay "The Sense of Place." In this essay, Stegner informs us that the only way for us to feel a sense of place is for us to submit ourselves to the land; he does this using many techniques such as: figurative language, use of a personal anecdote, and the use of second person.…

The United States has great amounts of traffic signals and symbols all over the road to make the driver more aware. In the U.K. accidents do occur but not that often has in the United States. In the Unites States every second there is huge amounts of accidents going on over the nation.
