Harley-Davidson should consider modernizing the technology used in its motorcycles while at the same time maintaining their retro look. Harley’s lack of innovation has tarnished the brand’s image, especially to younger consumers. The Chevrolet Camaro, Dodge Challenger, and Ford Mustang have all revived classic body styles in their latest model redesign. However, modern technology was incorporated into these models, so while they look similar to classic automobiles of the past, they have all the bells and whistles of a modern car. Harley has emphasized having its motorcycles resembled those of the company’s storied past, however they have done so by not updating certain components of the bikes, and by keeping old technologies in their new bikes. Although the vintage look and feel is appealing to its loyal followers, Harley should modernize the technology used in its bikes in order better compete with its Japanese competitors. If Harley can do this without affecting the retro look and distinct sound that a Harley exhaust makes, then Harley would be able to attract new customers that value performance and modern technology, while not alienating its current customer base.…
In this story, the devil, one of the characters in this story, convinces Goodman Brown to go into the “evil side.” He conveys both ethos and pathos in order to persuade Goodman Brown to follow the devil and join the people who are in the evil side. The devil mentions about Goodman Brown’s grandfather and father, and says that they have connection with him. He tells Goodman Brown that he helped grandfather to hit the Quaker with a whip, and gave father “pitch-pine knot to set fire on the Indian village.” In addition, the devil talks to Goody Cloyse who told Goodman Brown about Christianity and shows Goodman Brown that Goody Cloyse is also his friend. These pathos and ethos represent Puritans place great importance on the tie or link with other…

The song “Blown Away” by Carrie Underwood shows many examples of pathos, ethos, and logos. The emotions evoked by the song are heart wrenching and dark. Both the musical elements and music video of “Blown Away” contribute to an underlying sinister and intense mood. The song’s tempo and loud rhythmic beat the story told by the lyrics. Carrie Underwood enhances her credibility as a major country singer ten years after winning season four of “American Idol”. She demonstrates logos in her song by incorporating the location in which the events are happening, repeatedly singing Oklahoma. The state of Oklahoma is associated with an area of the United States called “tornado alley”, so the name of the song has a double meaning. “Blown Away” was written…

The material I have selected to analyze is “Bonding Over a Mascot” on page 632. This essay remonstrates that the Florida State University’s mascot, the Seminole, is a derogatory representation of a certain Native Indian tribe called the Seminoles. The school mascot represents the era when the Seminoles and United States were at war. For some this mascot connects the past history of Seminole culture and Florida State’s sports, but for others it creates a disputation of Native American stereotypes.…
The bull featured centrally within Minoan religion. A dominant symbol of masculinity, the bull was the symbol of Zeus, the most powerful of all the gods. The bull additionally appears within Minoan mythological recounts as the most important of sacrificial animals. Evidence that the Minoans had religious practices involving bull sacrifices exists upon the Aghia Triadha Sarcophagus, which depicts a bulls blood being drained, and a priestess placing it under an alter, allowing for archaeologists to conclude that the majority of religious sacrifices involved libation offerings. The horns of the bull, referred to as ‘horns of consecration’, were of equal importance to the Minoans. Many historians have presented various theories regarding their meaning and what they represent. Nanno Marinatos states the most likely explanation for the symbol was that it commemorated bull sacrifice, serving to elucidate the importance of the bull within their religion. In 1934, Joseph Hazzidakis suggested that the Minoan ‘horns of consecration’ derived from the Egyptian symbol of the mountain or the horizon, and may have represented the symbol of a Minoan sun deity.…

Facts: In 1983, the American distributor of the German auto manufacture adopted a policy in which any damages resulted in delivery to dealership would be fixed and sold as new without the dealer knowing as long as it was three percent or less of the suggested retail price. Gore purchased a BMW for $40,750.88 not knowing that it had been repainted and sold as new because it only costed $601.37 which is only 1.47 percent of the retail. Gore was informed by a repair shop 9 months later that there were signs that the car has been repainted. The case was taken to an Alabama court in which he was awarded $4,000 in compensatory damages due to his stating that is costed $4,000 to repair and 4 million in punitive damages. The distributor attempted to get the punitive damages dropped but was denied in the Supreme Court of Alabama but the court did readjust the damages to $2,000 compensatory damages and 2 million punitive damages. On certiorari, the United States Supreme Court reversed and remanded. One guideposts for punitive damages is that the trail should not permit a punitive award more than nine times higher than the compensatory damages. Which in this case is was 500 times the compensatory damages and is not reasonable.…
The Volkswagen logo is a household image that is known on an international level. In over seventy years, the logo has not changed a great deal and has stood the test of time. What most people do not know how ever is it 's lush history dating back to Hitler 's reign to current day with law suits debating the original creator of the logo. In short, the Volkswagen logo is memorable, scalable, and effective without color. In addition to discussing the evolution of its design, what makes a good logo, and my opinions on it, I will also discuss the historical background of the logo and the company itself. Although the design itself is very recognizable, I would say the history behind it is more intriguing.…

He is driving way too fast too slow down now but tries to swerve to avoid the small squirrel and goes off the edge of a steep hill and rolls his new Lambo.…
The sports car is purchased by customers who have a passion for elite sports cars. There are many celebrities who also own the Jaguar F-Type and add the sports car to their collection. An example would be Kelly Rowland, a hip hop singer, who recently added the F-Type to her collectables along with her Bentley Continental, and Range Rover. Jay Leno, a television host, also raves about the F-Type saying that “it’s like a Mustang that went to college at Oxford” (businessinsider.com).…
In the initial stage, Bentley’s original logo was a Capital letter B with rear swept wings at either side. Likes ford’s original “winged script logo”. Now, the logo of Bentley Motors is a “winged B”, which is a Capital letter B inside a pair of wings. The wings were a reference to the speed and early racing success of Bentley automobiles, as well as Bentley’s early years as a purveyor of airplane engines.…

1) First of all, Ferraris are beautiful cars and luxurious which not many people cannot afford to buy them. On the eyes of economics the market system that governs our country which is capitalist gives many incentives for companies and for the buyers to best use their money. The first essential need for prices of Ferraris or any other type of property to go high or be worth more than what it really is, depends on how many people are willing of people to want those things.

Third, is the self-interest of individual’s is a motivating force to want to drive a Ferrari. Fourth is the competition between buyers and sellers regarding what are the best prices the sellers could offer, and the amount of money the buyer is willing to pay. In addition, Ferrari’s cost so much in America because it is an international product, it is not produced within American’s sources. Also, According to an Ferrari specialist: Ferraris costs so much because of “high quality leather, detailed stitching on the interior, high tech materials such as the super lightweight and super strong carbon fiber for better strength and weight reduction, cutting edge technologies like the paddle shift, dual clutch, F1 traction control, suspension set, overall for better performance but also comfort at the same time. The paint of a Ferrari is high quality and it can recover when it got a light scratch. Ferraris are hand built (although there is some machinery works that human cannot do), they’re crafted with patience and big attention to details. The workers are professional workers too. Some short production models like the 599 GTO, Enzo, 250 GTO, 288 GTO,…
