...Rhetorical Analysis The trend of tattoos in today’s society has grown into much more than just a trend. Just take a look around, there is a plethora of people with ink stained skin. Even the unexpected people may have some ink under their clothing. While tattooing is a growing industry, people have varying opinions on the subject. Some see tattooing as degrading to one’s body, harmful to our society, and just dirty and unsophisticated. Others will look at a tattoo and see art, a story, or a way of expressing oneself. In this rhetorical analysis of Ink Sessions, where Margot Miffin explores the idea that tattoos and the artists creating them are more than society gives credit for, we will analyze how effective her message is. Miffin is trying to prove that tattoos and artists are much more, that they can actually have a healing effect on a person. Miffin starts the article by introducing Roxx, a tattoo artist who owns the 2Spirit Tattoo studio. Roxx, a very unique tattooist, who works with a style not many women do, called blackwork. She turned to this form of tattooing because it is different, and she knew merely tattooing pictures on skin was not for her. Roxx has been developing her style since she was a kid. She started off learning to draw horses with her grandmother, and then moved to Amsterdam where she tattooed at a street shop. Her style gives her work life, emotion, and meaning, something that touches the hearts of her clients. She does this by getting to know them...

...Critical Argument Analysis University of Phoenix Cassondra Capers ENG/215 September 14, 2013 Dr. Williams Critical Argument Analysis Americans have their own culturally determined sense of physical perfection, and they often go to extremes with diets, exercise, fashions, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics to achieve a certain look. Body piercings or images show how men and women feel about themselves and or to tell a story. Life of body modification for men and woman gives them free expression to express themselves freely without restrictions. Body modification is a diverse argument that has many different standpoints of discussion. The definition for body modification is the perceptions, thoughts, and feelings a person has about his or her physical appearance. It is, thought to play an important role in self-esteem for many individuals. Although body modification is to consider being a target among society of everyone, body modifications can have a negative impact on the younger and pre adult generations through body image, words, and health. Focusing on body image gives men and women the right to do what they please to their own bodies. The only side effect to body image is kids and teenagers, because children look up to actors and models every day.

His heart rate may exceed 180 beats per minute and his blood pressure could rise by half. With soaring temperatures inside the cramped cockpit he will also dehydrate, typically losing 2–3 litres of water during the race. Yet the driver must concentrate well enough to achieve lap times that might vary by just a tenth of a second. This is tough, on both mind and body. Hence it is not just the performance of the car itself which an array of sensors keeps an eye on, wirelessly transmitting data about the engine, suspension and so on to the pit crews. The drivers’ own vital signs are constantly monitored, too.” —Economist, Nov. 3, 2011 Wearable computing, or wearables, has recently moved from the realm...

Because the real William serves as scribe for the real Harvey and cannot write due to his broken arm, the crowd cannot prove that the real Wilkses are indeed who they say they are. To put an end to the situation, the real Harvey declares he knows of a tattoo on his brother’s chest, asking the undertaker who dressed the body to back him up. But after the dauphin and Harvey each offer a different version of the tattoo’s appearance, the undertaker surprises everyone by telling the crowd he saw no tattoo.

...their own belief when it comes to health and healing. Some people may believe in power of pray with no conventional medicine. Others believe western medicine can cure what ails them. Today I will discuss the difference between Era II and Era III models of health and healing relating to what it means to be human. Era II is known as the mind-body model. This model was developed in the 19th century. It is believed to have conscious thought that assist in healing the body. “"Psychosomatic" aspect: that emotions and feelings can influence the body's functions.” (Dossey, n.d., p. 1). With Era II arose negative attitude, feelings and thoughts cause disease. Bad attitude equaled disease. With this discovery, people’s emotions can affect their heart rate, blood pressure, etc. Then Dossey realized positive thoughts, attitude and prayer can make people healthy. “Now, this has been sort of turned on its head and we recognize that thoughts, emotions, attitudes and feelings can really be used to make people healthy.” (DiCarlo, 1996, p. 1). Dossey’s discover of Era III involves consciousness which affects not only your body, but individuals miles away. This era is known as the mind-body-spirit model. Within Dossey’s research, he discovered the mind is different from the brain. When people die, their spirit lives on to assist in research to help with diseases. The difference in Era II and III is that era II has the basic power of prayer within the individual. Depending on your attitude...

These business structures often disguise the motives of a sub company that are trying to meet the agenda of an overarching company. This type of hidden motive can be seen within the Dove: Campaign for Real Beauty.

Once this idea of body acceptance gets reviewed critically we are afforded many unstated premises that lead to an unstated conclusion, with a hidden advertisement agenda in the background. This paper is structured based off the two main thesis points introduced in the opening paragraph. Each of these points will...
