EA chapter 3
"Everything and Argument" chapter three describes arguments based on character or better known as Ethos. It first illustrates how the head of India's Tata Motors unveiled Nano, which is said to be the worlds cheapest car, just under 2500. There marketing strategy for selling it is to what your though of the cars character will be. It will be "dependable, safe, fuel efficient, and low and on emissions."Focusing on these great aspects of the car could really benefit there profits, which Tata Motors really seems to hit on the head. It also appeals to the many of the beliefs today about car emissions and lowering them for the better of the environment. They focus on these values to demise the reason the car is so cheap including the windows are manual, there is no air conditioning, and the bodywork is made of sheet metal and plastic. The Nano car really appeals to our Ethos and that is how the marketing strategy also relates. Arguments can be soley based on character work. When ignorant about a subject, we look to professionals in the subject to advise us from doctors to lawyers to pastors. Arguments about character will identify three claims usually from a person who does or does not have the authority to speak to this issue. Also a person who is or is not trustworthy on the issue and a person who does or does not have good motives for addressing this subject. All three of these claims all direct towards what people look at when arguments are based on character work.

The ocean is one of the most admirable, stunning, and graceful physical aspects of human life. This picture draws me in because of the horrifying truth of what it has come to. Ocean water encompasses about two thirds of the Earth and major parts of it are starting to become heavily filled with trash. As the oceans becomes more and more of a human trash landfill, the question as to what will become of them in 20 years arises. This ad is very appealing to me and would be very easy to write about because of the immense love I have for the ocean. This ad appeals to my pathos region of emotion very deeply. It is a deep concern and would be very easy to write about. The audience for this ad would be environmentalist and humanitarians that are involved in current affairs. I could see this ad in Life, Newsweek, Times, or Forbes magazine exposing the dangers of the current world. This would rank as one of the most critical issues in current affairs because of the critical danger it has on the marine wildlife and the constraint on space we have to use. This issue needs to be taking way more serious around the world and placed in a higher matter but because of the general publics lack of awareness. With more ads placed in the big time magazines on newsstand, only then will this be a more trending topic.

Intro Blog
My name is Austin Havens. I resided in Stockton, California before attending school at Arizona State. I am a social person who always is down for task at hand. I like to read to pass the time away, especially historical biographies or accounts. One of my favorite figures in history is John F. Kennedy. He was a unique person who not only had the social skill and public confidence but the leadership, poise, and ambition of one of the greatest presidents of all time. Music plays a huge role in my life, the area to which i was raised had its own unique flavor that really played a huge role over the years. From artist like Mac Dre, The grouch, People Under The Stairs, Hieroglyphics, Living Legends, Zion I, plus many more. They all have unprecedented flavor and rap to inform not to maintain. The music inspires me to be my own person and not be just another duplicate. Individuality is the goal. Dogs play a huge part in my life as well. Ever since I can remember Ive had a dog in my life. They are the sweetest and most lovable things this world can offer. Sports are a keen aspect of me. Not only do i love to play them but watch as well, pondering what I would do without ESPN is not a good thought. The Sacramento Kings, Oakland A's, and Oakland Raiders are my favorite teams, so it is a pretty hard time in life right now considering no team has made the playoffs in the last 5 years. San Francisco and the whole bay area is one of my favorite places in the world. The lifestyle and culture is so unique it is like no place in the world. The Beaches of San Diego also play a vital role in sustaining a manageable life. I am looking foward to ascending through this life to what it may bring".Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future." John F Kennedy.
