    1. Colgate is a company that was going up when I purchased them. They have special offers, community programs, and sustainability systems. As stereotypical as this is, the Latinos love Colgate and they are the fastest growing population in the United States, therefore, Colgate is being invested in a lot and continuing to go up.

    First of all, the advertisement’s appeal to logic argues that the use of Colgate is the reason for the manipulation of unhealthy hygiene so that the mouth stays flawless. For example, Colgate guarantees washed and polished teeth that proves to be an excellent way of taking care of the mouth’s surroundings. Good teeth physically provides a commitment to transcending yourself. It shows so much about an individual’s character such as the desire to care for yourself, your health and your appearance.

    People fear change. People fear persecution. In the play The Crucible fear is used ridiculously to persecute the innocent and save ones self. Salem, a puritan community, had god and religion as its number one priority. Therefore the devil was the people of Salem's greatest fear. In he United States during the cold war, people feared communism. Here came the creation of McCarthyism, this is almost identical to the events of Salem, people were accused in the United States of being communist sympathizers, usually without much evidence, and people were persecuted. Arthur miller himself was accused of being a communist supporter and charged after his writing of The Crucible. Even more recently terrorism is the world's greatest fear, and therefore people are persecuted, not in a court of law but in society. These people are discriminated against due to race or culture without any evidence that they are terrorists or murderers. This strongly links to the major themes in the play.…

Colgate-Palmolive had the leading value market share of toothpaste in the U.S. 2004 with 34.8% and Crest from Proctor & Gamble close behind at 31.6%. Colgate also had a commanding lead in the international market with a global toothpaste market value share of 39.7% in 2004, compared to Proctor & Gamble with only 14.7%.

    Some major business executives may say that earlier in their career they established a mentor relationship that helped them to get to where they are in their career. Research has shown that this statement can be true for some executives but not for all. Some experts believe that just having mentor relationships can or cannot affect someone’s career path and development. The purpose of this paper is to explain exactly what mentoring is and how it successful works within the workplace environment. Using support from various scholarly articles, I was able to discuss define the concept of mentoring and how it relates within the workplace setting. Using this concept, I establish the role of the mentor and mentee in regards to the mentor relationship, and explain how their roles have an impact on the outcome of the relationships itself. Within this paper you are introduced to the dynamics that are involved when actually establishing a mentoring program within an organization. I also discuss in detail the two different types of mentoring relationships and their affect on the workplace. In addition to the types of mentor relationships discussion, the influence of mentoring relationships on career success and corporate culture is revealed. This paper also expresses the difficulties that minorities and women have when it comes to them establishing mentor relationships within their own workplaces. Finally, I give my own personal insight as to how an effective mentoring program is established and maintained by using the mentoring program that my company has established since its 30 years of being in existence.…
