Solomon was an American professor of philosophy and business at the University of Texas, where he taught for more than 30 years. His work was intended for a broader audience. The findings suggested emotions are rational and purposive rather than irrational and disruptive, emotion are very much like actions, and that we choose an emotion just as we choose a course of action, his notion is that feelings are inessential to emotion since feelings fail to capture the component of emotion. In contrast, Solomon criticized James with the idea of emotion being a sensation and that bodily response will produce a specific emotion, he suggested that emotions are purposive and that emotions are judgments, which can be a part of our control but not completely.
Activity theory, as interpreted by Ph.D. candidates, Wardle and Kain, is a process that attempts to see all aspects of activity such as social interactions and use of writing and language to achieve goals. This theory is award winning. Activity theory states that for a system to be effective, the rules, community, subject, division of labor, and motives must be reasonable. These components are shown through the chosen tool of communication most often. When one area of the system is corrupted, the tool will no longer function correctly in order to communicate or achieve its goals.
Politics: a constant debate between right or wrong and moral or immoral. Because of these conflicting arguments, some politicians resort to extreme measures to further themselves against their opponent. All the King’s Men by Robert Penn Warren deals with the strict division between the logical fairness of using truth to further oneself politically and the immorality of using facts as blackmail. In some instances, one may view blackmail may as logical and fair, since it is primarily based on truth.
Seaver addresses the idea that the Coca-Cola Company came up with the ideal slogan of “the real thing” first. Seaver believes and also states in his letter to Herbert that if both companies use the slogan, then there will be confusion in the products, that will cause the customers to be misleading.

In other words, Seaver knows that if both companies keep using the same motto, customers would be confused in which product is advertised, and it can cause a downfall in their financial.
Lewis is trying to make the audience feel like they have a mission, one that will take them as a community to accomplish. Lewis purposely first leads them with sadness, telling the audience stories of friends and family who face the hardships of the government, but, starts telling them that they are not alone, telling them that they need to work, and finally, telling them that they will succeed. By doing this, he starts with the truth, but ends by motivating the audience of how it isn’t the end.

Regardless, before class tomorrow, I had merely wanted to apologize for my multiple submissions (to the degree of excess) with last Tuesday's Milton essay.
The reading of Gangstas, wankstas, and Ridas have reinforced my desire of working with the poor communities.

Margeret Thatcher, former prime minister of Great Britain in 2004, delivered a eulogy at Ronald Reagan's funeral to the American people in honor of him.

In Niccolo Machiavelli's book, The Prince (1513), he evaluates on how a prince can be a successful leader. Machiavelli’s purpose of this guidebook was to construct his argument to the rising ruler Giuliano de Medici for when he comes to power in Florence. He adopts a casual but authoritative tone in order to convince the prince that Machiavelli’s evaluation on how to be the best prince, is the right thing for the prince to do without coming off as he knows more than the prince or is trying to intimidate him.. Machiavelli’s reference to previous rulers and whether their tactics failed or succeeded helps to benefit his credibility along with his allusion to historic text. He appeals to our logic by simply stating a prince can only do what is within his power to control, and his use of an analogy furthers his argument.
