In the last 50 years, the role and social functions of women have dramatically been changed due to extreme desire of women to fight for their rights and freedoms. The emergence of feminist movements allows male society to reconsider their attitudes to the roles of women. Specifically, the conventional views on women as mothers, wives, and friends have been blurred with the emergence of emancipated movement leading to the professional equality of women. More and more females occupy leading positions at the top of managerial ladder by brining in confidence in other women. Significant advances have been achieved by women in educational, industrial, and social sphere. Despite the valuable contribution that women made to the development of society, the role reversal between US men and women is demonstrated most explicitly and painfully in the working class, having significant cultural and political consequences for the development of the American society. So far, it was hard to imagine that women can occupy the leading positions in industrial, scientific, educational, and political spheres, since men were traditionally believed to be the most suitable for these professional areas. Nowadays, these stereotypes have been blurred and, as a result, a plethora of advances has been introduced to various social and cultural spheres. In particular, because male prevailing society prevented them from learning, “knowledge…make[s] them question the binding power of the conventions and believes which…would show them how to achieve their freedom” (Barnes, 2009, p. 22). Education, therefore, was the only path to achieve privileges that men had. Moreover, women’s desire to gain advantage over men led to the achievement of the economic independence, as well as advances made in industrial spheres. The criticism of gender differences has touched on the changes in top corporate positions that were previously taken by men.
There are more than 6 billion people all over the world, and each of them has its own and unique character. It is impossible to find two persons who have the same treats of character. That is why it is possible to say that every man in the world has a mixture of different peculiarities of the character, which can distinguish him/her from the rest of the people. However, not all these peculiarities can be called positive, and not all of them make the life of a person easier. That is why, having realized the problem aspect of their behavior, people try to get rid of it. With this in mind, it is possible to say that psychology as a science appeared when a person decided to change something in his mind, behavior, and make his life easier. Resting on this fact, it is possible to say that the desire and ways to alter something in a mans personality is the fundamental notion in psychology. It is no surprise that a great number of works were devoted to this issue, and different methods to change a person were created. From these considerations, it is possible to determine a persons character as a constant set of qualities that we obtain in the process of development since our childhood and which remains peculiar for a person until his death. “The traits that shape us remain fairly stable over time, making them the closest thing we have to a crystal ball” (Marano, 2011, para. 1). Being so stable, these traits allow a person to be constant in his judgments, tastes, actions, reactions, and behave in a certain way. However, sometimes, a person suffers from his behavior or attitude towards some things. That is why he/she tries to do something in order to change his/her certain traits of character and the behavior as a result. There are several approaches to this question. There is an opinion that a character cannot be changed but only modified. Adherers of this idea suggests the ways to decrease or increase manifestations of some quality (Wood, Wood, Boyd, Wood, & Desmarais, 2013). Another point of view says that there is a possibility to change a person and suggest some ways how to do it. According to psychology, the behavior, which a person would like to change, is called target behavior. Modern science suggests some ways how to achieve significant alterations in the mood and behavior of a person. There are several stages in this process. They are precontemplation, contemplation — determination, and action maintenance (Lickerman, 2009). Every step is very important for a successful result. The first two stages are closely interconnected, however, a lot of time can pass between them. The difference is that on the first stage, a person does not suffer from manifestations of this behavior, only being told about their unpleasant nature. Understanding of the need to change this trait leads a person to the second stage. In my case, it is possible to say that this period has taken a long time. I was told by my friends that impatience makes my life worse. Ignoring their remarks, I tried not to notice the problem. Howe
Abstract The primary goal of the paper is to describe various presentation methods and techniques that will be used to deliver the outcomes of the research concerning the issues in juvenile justice to the target audience. This paper describes effective presentation tips to present the results and conclusions, tactics to select the target audience, various approaches, and research statement presentation techniques. It could be said that a combination of these aspects will be used to make the presentation interesting to investors and the target audience. In turn, the second part of the paper offers responses to two peer posts while evaluating the methods selected for presentation, describing additional tips to present the findings, and defining devices and instruments that can be used to interest the audience. Post Presentation Tips In the first place, the primary intention of the research is to focus on problems related to juvenile justice that addresses crimes committed by underage children (younger than 18 years old) (Whitehead & Lab, 2015). This sphere is associated with a plethora of controversies, and it is one of the reasons for selecting it for this assignment and future research. Consequently, it is vital to focus on presentation and select the most appropriate strategies to deliver the outcomes to avoid misunderstandings. The approaches described below will not only give tips regarding the visual appearance of the presentation but also will describe valuable steps to present the content and increase the interest of the target audience. In this instance, to present the findings related to this topic effectively the following tips will be used:  1. Creating an interesting introduction to attract the attention of the audience including students, policymakers, researchers, and youth rights movement;  2. Displaying the research statement on a separate slide of PowerPoint presentation and describing the steps and findings of the research in details;  3. Presenting the results visually with the help of diagrams, pictures, and videos (Livingston, 2015; Walter & Gioglio, 2014);  4. Interpreting the outcomes with practical examples by describing different real-life cases;  5. Preparing print materials that will display the findings of the paper visually (Orey, 2014);  6. Addressing the needs of the target audience in the presentation;  7. Providing reasons for selecting a particular solution and expected outcomes;  8. Encouraging the audience to ask questions about the research topic (Barlow, 2016). Understanding the Target Audience Another critical matter is to design an effective framework to define the appropriate target audience of the article. In the first place, it is necessary to determine what kind of people such as scholars and legal authorities this paper will interest them most (Murray, 2015). To understand the main features of this target group, similar research articles concerning juveni
After the abolition of the slave trade in the United States, strict segregation rules were put in place to control the races. Even though the United States of America has always taken the leading role in promoting democracy in other countries around the world, it has particularly been unable to create democracy among its own citizenry; this has left the world wondering if America really believes in democracy. A significant show of bias was in the 2008 presidential election where basically the African Americans were democrats and the white republicans. Despite the intensive efforts that have been made in trying to deal with past bias in the United States, racism has remained elusive and has always impacted a lot on the policymaking in the country. The African Americans were accorded a low social status because they got into America as slaves and so their social status was determined by this. The discrimination went on for quite some time but in the 1960s the civil rights movements were able to push for the passing of the anti-discrimination bill. In an attempt to curb the rampant discrimination based on race and class, the United States has been coming up with anti-discriminatory laws and policies to curb the vice. One of these policies, for instance, was affirmative action that was proposed by President J. F. Kennedy to promote the rights of the minority groups in employment and education. This policy has actually been criticized a number of times for discriminating against the whites in favor of blacks – this is called reverse discrimination. Crime has always been associated with the nonwhites in the U.S. especially the African Americans. The problem with this is that such assumptions never take into consideration the challenges that these people are faced with. A number of the African Americans are living in poor conditions or are homeless; some are either unemployed or doing odd low paying jobs, while most of them have low levels of education, mental sicknesses and addictions to drugs. Such factors that African Americans face tend to make them quite susceptible to criminal activities. In order to curb the increasing crime rate, Americans have continually passed laws that have in turn led to an increase in the number of prisons across the country. The only problem with this school of thought is that imprisonment does not really stop the crime but only leads to the vanishi
Introduction Advertising campaign strategies can significantly increase sales and profits of a company if the management implements the process successfully. In developing an ad strategy firms have to know their target audience, their preferences, and likes, in order to design their strategies that fascinate or attract their desires and emotions. The report takes a case study of Hershey Company intent to advertise the Hershey Kisses to a specific target population. This company manufactures chocolate in large-scale in North America, and distributes the products in over sixty nations globally. The giant chocolate company is among the dominant chocolate firms in the US, and is well known for its chocolate bar. The company aims at ‘bringing sweet moments of Hershey happiness to the world over’ with proactive advertising objectives (Hershey Kisses, n.d.). Understanding customers’ prior knowledgebase on the product, their media preferences, the competitors, and what they do worse or better than Hershey, enables the company to design advertisement strategies that are inclusive in attracting and maintaining customers’ in buying its products. Background Founded in 1894 by Milton Hershey, the company has its headquarters in Hershey in Pennsylvania, and deals in chocolate and candy products. Since its establishment, the vibrant management has steered it to a world-class business entity. Milton Hershey used milk from nearby dairy farms to make delicious milk chocolate, and added coatings of chocolate to caramels. Hershey Company produces many chocolate brands, such as categories of bars, packaged candy, baking, syrup and toppings, beverages, seasonal, and sugar-free varieties. Taking a chronological analysis on the performance of the company, some of its products, like the Not-So-Sweet bar and the mint-flavored chewing gum, have not been successful in the marketplace. The two brands enjoyed brief popularity at the time of their introduction into the market, only to be discontinued. With the introduction of the low-cost, high-quality milk chocolate, the company went on to increase its production facilities in South-Central Pennsylvania in Derry Township. The newly established chocolate factory receive
Introduction Creativity in the process of language interaction is especially significant for linguistic researchers from different countries. The ability to improvise various means of communication is believed to be a crucial part of any communication (Duranti and McCoy, 2020). The conversation is closely linked to social actions, as it frames the possibility to express one’s views and needs. Main body Everyday conversation is essential in understanding the processes behind creativity in communication. Informal discourse can be seen as a primary source of exchanging information and a method of establishing social connections and fulfilling specific functions. Conversation analysis is incredibly informative in outlining the main social actions accomplished through communication (Rapley, 2018). Such activities vary significantly and usually express the speaker’s needs or desires, for example, sharing common experiences, upholding friendship, or creating a group identity (The Open University, 2017). Additionally, channels of information exchange can be beneficial for certain groups’ interaction, as it might shift particular perspectives and increase the group’s willingness to participate in a public discussion (Swaab et al., 2016). As stated by Swaab et al. (2016), engaging in a case-specific dialogue is a significant factor of a majority group’s readiness to consider the social standing of minority groups around it. Overall, the conversation seems to possess several functions imperative for a successful individual-group interaction, such as performing various social actions. The prominence of speech practice regarding social functions accomplishment is a lucrative branch of academic research. Mondada (2019) explains how social action is a complex phenomenon, which includes different grammatical features and can be analyzed from different perspectives. For example, Rapley (2018) describes a court case where the defendant communicates her uncertainty of the information disclosed. The author analyses the witness’s phrases, such as “I don’t remember” or “I don’t know,” to illustrate the speaker’s desire not to be held accountable for the details that are being discussed (Rapley, 2018). The woman is not merely stating a fact pertaining to her memetic abilities or personal existence but is also performing a social action, hoping to avoid the negative consequences of her answer (Rapley, 2018). Altogether, this example presents the variety of social activities performed by conversing practices. Any conversation can serve a specific function, not only in the cases connected to legal evidence. Many linguis
The usage of mise en scene is a powerful method that could be explored by a filmmaker to achieve a certain effect or attract publics attention to a certain issue. The term means a set of design aspects of a film that incorporate the visual theme, gestures, characters positions, etc. Therefore, there are many other crucial elements that could be related to this very aspect. Besides, cogitating about the great power of this very tool, we could analyze scenes from Psycho . The movie is taken as a unique example of how the appropriate usage of different techniques could help to achieve the needed effect. The scene We All Go a Little Mad Sometimes could be considered a powerful episode that has a great impact on viewers. First of all, it is monochromatic, and all colors are indicated by different shades of black and white. The prevalence of these tints contributes to a specific atmosphere of depression and anxiety. Marion and Norman speak in a usual manner; they do not have any conflict. However, when the characters discuss the madness of Normans mother, first signs of threat could be noticed. Norman changes. He becomes excited and nervous. He speaks about a madhouse with great pain and understanding. There is even something ill in his words. Marion obviously notices the change, and we could see that she is scared for a while; however, relaxed atmosphere calms her down; she apologizes and relaxes, having no idea that Norman is sick and dangerous. The mise en scene perfectly fits the context. Grey color prevails, and it becomes the main motif of the whole narration. The characters communicate at night which makes the scene even more thrilling. Finally, stuffed birds and lack other tiny details of the interior contribute to the improved understanding of the great tension that exists. The scene A Boy’s Best Friend is characterized by the same mise en scene. However, here we could also see a lamp, telephone, sandwiches, and some other objects that contribute to the creation of the less tensed atmosphere. The scene is not so dark as the previous one as the lamp gives light and gray shades are blended with white ones. At the first gaze, the difference between mise en scenes of these episodes is not significant; however, it contributes to the creation of opposite effects and results in the appearance of different feelings.

Central legal Issue This particular case analysis looks into a case study involving the Michael A. Smyth VS Pillsbury Company. In this case, the court had sought to determine if the Pillsbury Company had violated the privacy of one of the employees (Michael A. Smith) after intercepting an email communication. The central legal issue raised in the case was whether the Pillsbury Company had violated the public policy by intercepting an email of one of employee’s and terminating the employment contract. The Pertinent facts After the installation of the electronic mail system to enhance communication with the company, the company promised that the communications made would be confidential (Weiner, 2009). The company also made it clear that it would not intercept the emails and in any case they would not be used by the company for the as a foundation for termination of the employment contract. Contrary, to these assurances, the company went ahead and violated all by intercepting the emails, and using them as a ground for the termination of Smyth. However, the comments that were communicated to the supervisor according to the company were unprofessional and inappropriate. According to the plaintiff, the termination was against the public policy that bars an employer from terminating the employee after it has violated “the employees’ right to privacy as embodied in the Pennsylvania common law” (Weiner, 2009, p. 717). Issues and facts of the case The major issues were that the Pillsbury had violated the public policy by intruding the privacy of one of its employees through interception of a mail. The other issue was that the company had failed to keep the promise of ensuring privacy, confidentiality, and the termination of employees based on the intercepted emails. The facts of the case were that it had promised not to ensure privacy and confidentiality and it failed. However, there was a loophole by stating that intercepted mails would not be used for termination purpose. This was important and advantageous to the company for it gave them the chance to intercept communications made in the workplace. The claim by the Michael that privacy had been broken when the communication system belonged to Pillsbury was not important, because, the tort was only concerned with physical intrusion to property of an employee and privacy or private information was retrieved. However, in the case the intrusion by the company was appropriate because it enhanced the interception of unprofessional and inappropriate message. The claims made by the plaintiff were not important as the offensive act of the company was not applicable based on the tort. The arguments made by the court were that plaintiff failed to produce the claims on which relief would be given. This was supported by the fact that the entire company used the same disqualifying any privacy expectation on reasonable basis. When the email reached a second party, privacy was insignificant because the information had been disclosed voluntarily. Lastly, if reasonability was to be applied, then a reasonable person would not cl
