good communication

Chapter 1 page 27 I have found that people who are good at reading feedback accurately are much better communicators. A comedian who can’t judge if the crowd is enjoying his routine is more than likely not doing very well. In order for the comedian to really catch his crowds’ full attention; he needs to be able to use the reaction of the crowd as feedback. This feedback can be used to tell him what jokes are too far and which ones are ok. This shows that there is a relationship between the ability to read feedback and the ability to communicate information or to motivate or persuade an audience. Another thing to take into consideration is the ability of someone to give effective feedback. If this comedian did this same routine in front of friends who came from the same area as him the routine might have seemed to be a hit. This could be due to friends being nice or the jokes are localized to where they live or many other things. The effective feedback in this instance would be the approach of someone they don’t know and would the jokes have the same effect.
4)Synchronous messaging - When I communicate in synchronous messaging, face to face conversation or text messaging I tend to I tend to talk about the here and now. My conversations are on more of a personal level. My tone can be received instantly.
Asynchronous messaging – When I communicate in asynchronous messaging, mail or email, I don’t have so much of the back and forth. This can be due to many factors but the major thing to be taken from asynchronous messaging is that a message sent one day in one that specific tone can be received in a completely different way. Example: Did you hear the news?!?!?!? This could be interpreted as bad or good dependent on the receivers’ current tone.

Refusing lifesaving medical procedures for children on religious grounds – I feel that it is a parents right to accept or deny treatment if they feel they are doing right by whatever go they believe in. My parents have taught me to be very accepting of others.
Same sex marriage – I think that a person should be able to marry whoever they want to. I know what’s right for me and who am I to say that isn’t the right decision for them. My parents have taught me to be very accepting of others.
Cockfighting, bullfighting, and fox hunting – Cockfighting and bullfighting seem like nonsense to me. Cockfighting especially because I can’t understand how a bunch of grown men can get so excited about to rooster trying to kill each other. Bullfighting has a history to it and it’s very much engrained in the culture of Spain. Fox hunting is done as game hunting but it also serves a purpose. Fox have wreaked havoc on farm owners for centuries and this is how they used to rid the farm lands of these animals. My family raised me to not senselessly kill anything.
Single parent adoption – I feel that if someone is able to adopt a child in need, support that child, and provide a home full of love and peace then they have the right to adopt as many as they can support. I was taught to help who you can.
Medical assisted suicides – I feel that it is that persons’ decision. They have the right to make whatever decision they want about their own life.
5)My rules on cell phone etiquette are don’t talk on a cell phone on any mode of public transportation, in an elevator or when you are alone with someone and the conversation does not pertain to them. I turn off my cell phone every time I get on an air plane, I go into a meeting, class, or when I go into a church. The public situations I am likely to leave my cell phone on are anything outside of church, meetings, class, or airplanes.
