What is less clear is who the decision makers and relevant stakeholders at these companies are. The fact that direct mailing and even targeted company-wise advertising on traditional media is employed suggests that salespeople have difficulties reaching them directly with cold

Throughout the story‚ Cathedral‚ by Raymond Carver‚ readers are shown the other side of blindness. In the world‚ one may assume that there is just one type of blindness- being sightless. “My idea of blindness came from the movies. In the movies‚ the blind moved slowly and never laughed. Sometimes they were led by seeing-eye dogs. A blind man in my house was not something I looked forward to” (Carver‚ 1). The meaning of blindness goes much deeper than that. Through the actions and words of a character

It is common knowledge that winners write history. In Inherit the wind‚ by Lawrence and Lee‚ this is obvious by how they portray religion and sciences. Theology‚ the side that lost the case‚ is shown as a deleterious force‚ smothering all ideas that disagree with it without reason. The religious town of Hillsboro causes the setting to put a negative connotation on religion. When it is described as being a “sleepy‚ obscure country town” (Lawrence 3) it implies that this is what happens to places
