He expresses how beautiful her woman was and how much they adored each other. Eventually, the musician regrets losing her and blames himself. The lyricist’s application to listeners is practical. Throughout his presentation, he indirectly warns his young audience to stick to their lovers at all costs. The singer applies pathos, logos, and ethos when describing his situation to convince his listeners that breaking up with one’s lover was ill-advised and irreversible.

Where do you fall within these titles? What aspects of followership do you see in yourself currently? I have always thought of myself as being a better support system to leadership than being the actual leader. I mostly find myself anxious about making decisions that others depend on for direction on essential matters. However, when there is someone else who gives guidance, I perform better at following their directives and achieving set goals. Before I came across the difference between leadership and followership, I thought of myself as being a weak leader. Learning about followership has enabled me to accept better my strength in being a loyal, ardent, and diligent follower of people in leadership positions. How can you use this knowledge to develop as a leader? The importance of knowing one’s strengths and weaknesses is in using the strengths to develop and improve on the weaknesses. Personal development comes hand in hand with the acknowledgment of one’s current and desired positions. I know I am good at being a follower. In this position, I am a keen observer of…
Monsters and the Moral Imagination review The article “Monsters and the Moral Imagination” by Stephen Asma is about the role played by monsters in the human imagination. By presenting horror films released in 2009, the year of article publication, and 2010 in the introduction, the author connects with the audience. In the article, the author makes a convincing argument of the role of monsters in human imagination by proving fitting examples but fails to convince the audience that monsters are on the rise and makes logical fallacies in the process including post hoc, non sequitur, and strawman. The introductory and closing statements of the article contain post hoc fallacies “People can’t seem to get enough of vampires lately, and zombies have a new lease of life” (Asma B11). The author attributes the rise of monster culture to people’s fascination with them but fails to provide any evidence to the claim (Miller & Miller 1). In the following statement, the author talks about the release of “usual” movies while the audience expected an unusual occurrence following the claim. In the last…
Resource Orchestration Theory Empirical data from primary and secondary sources studies how the effect of economic volatilities affect 3D printing business in China. Empirical data is essential in detailing the effective use of 3D printing technology across diverse applications with a sample population of 6581. Internal and external factors in data collection and analysis focus on the accuracy and reliability of empirical data while maintaining high levels of transferability of research findings. The research and study process relies on the Resource Orchestration Theory to assess effectiveness in the use of 3D printing technology in solving solutions in diverse sectors. Empirical data indicates that lack of appropriate functional coordination leads to wastages of essential resources in industries such as Wood & paper applications due to lower optimal values. For instance, while applying 3D printing techniques in textiles, clothing, and footwear, and leather designs, empirical data indicates fewer allocations of materials for administrative purposes compared to productive resources. The result is lower prices for finished products at reduced marginal costs compared to the number of resources allocated in logistics, human capital salaries,…

techniques applied in optical imaging Present techniques applied in optical imaging display an outstanding molecule-specific contrast and resolution. However, they come with restricted depth penetration and a slight field of view. Optical coherent tomography (OCT) provides high cellular resolution for the examination of tissue and has the potential of penetrating 2mm deep. The penetration is essential for deciding invasiveness on the tumor. Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT) offers sophisticated observations through tissue and allows properties of 3-D quantitative imaging. The Photoacoustic Imaging can measure dry fingers based on a robust ultrasound transducer serving as a receiver. Multiphoton Microscopy is effective in imaging living cells within intact tissue, such as whole organs or cells in the brain (Zhang, Net al., 2018). The technique is useful in sensing fluorescence microscopy, unusually thick specimens that have a limited out-of-focus flare. Widefield Microscopy involves exposing the entire specimen to a source of light with the final image viewed either by camera or the observer. Lastly, confocal microscopy is useful in selecting user-defined interest regions and exposed to a fluorescent source of light. In the case…
