Below I have the link to the commercial of Invisalign, that I found to be quite deceptive. There are many deceiving actions going on with the advertisement. In the video, it states that the aligners a virtually inviable, and you can eat whatever you want. The actress is seen with ice cream and popcorn, even playing an instrument. Recently, through my dentist I began my Invisalign treatment and was somewhat shocked when I was given a rundown of it. First, the aligners are clear, but due to attachments which help align your teeth, they become more noticeable. Also, you can’t eat anything with your aligners on, every time you eat, you’re to remove the aligners and then place them back in afterwards.
I believe this type of deceptive practice
In the best interest of Align Technology, the company should look towards Alternative 3 where Invisalign is broadened to the general dentistry market and incentives are created for dentists. This recommendation bridges together the three critical issues aforementioned. It will increase the conversion rate as now dentists are working towards recommending Invisalign to patients, dentists will recommend patients to orthodontists for Invisalign due to incentives and it will enforce a strong push strategy to the consumer. As seen, Align encountered a channel issue. To overcome this channel issue, they must match the incentive, product benefit, need of consumers and the function that each channel member provides. Alternative 3 does all aspects of that and will ultimately allow Align to overcome their revenues problem and satisfy
Two of the most extensively analyzed works of art are Diego Velasquez's Las Meninas and Jan Van Eyck's Arnolfini Double Portrait. Both of these artist's talent won them recognition not only during their lifetime but after as well. Both Velasquez and Van Eyck have a justly earned title as the most talented artists of their respective times. A detailed examination of the details and intricacies of these artist's respective masterpieces, their similarities, and what sets them apart not just from each other but from other paintings from their time period and style, will lead the viewer to a better understanding of the mentalities of these gifted artists and how they transcend their respective genres and contemporaries to create their own artistic identities.
First of all, if I had not gotten my braces, then my teeth would not be how they are today. They are perfectly straight thanks to Dr. Spiller. I wear my retainer every night. Their company has allowed me to design my own retainer, and I wear it every night to keep my teeth straight for the years to come. Every time that I have an orthodontics appointment, I am greeted with a smile. The staff always makes me feel welcome, and they are gentle when working on my teeth. Every trip I have taken to the orthodontist has
The nature of humanity frequently masks and distorts an individual’s concept of their own true self-identity. By creating unique and controversial symbolic objects, Ralph Ellison conveys this notion in his novel Invisible Man. Ellison uses the symbolic objects the briefcase, the bank, and the Sambo doll to demonstrate the idea that human stereotypes, different ideologies, and an individual’s past all control personal identity. However, one can only discover self-identity if they give up interaction with these aspects of life.
The essay “Seeing with the Native Eye” exemplifies an alternative paradigm. Schriver (2011) explains “in general, alternative paradigms are sets of interrelated and interlocking dimensions through which what and how we know about the world around us is created, communicated, and controlled” (Schriver, 2011). This analysis of the essay “Seeing with the Native Eye” will be applied with the concepts that are laid out in the book Human Behavior and the Social Environment. Concepts that will be highlighted are interpretive, intuitive, subjective, and qualitative.

For my interpretive essay, I have chosen to write about the internal context of a photograph called Precipice. This photograph was taken by Robert & Shana ParkeHarrison and is one of nine in a series called the Precipice. The photograph was captured in 2015 using real landscape combined with sets and props. Adobe Photoshop was also used to create digital composites that combine the new photographs with images they have taken in the past. Photographs from Precipice are featured on the Catherine Edelman gallery and can also be seen in numerous museum collections like the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Los Angeles, CA), the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York, NY), the Museum of Fine Arts (Houston, TX), the International Museum of Photography at
The short story “Orientation” by Daniel Orozco is a unique story. Orozco never introduces the narrator or the audience. The story appears to be, just as the title specifies, an orientation for a person entering a new job. The story, however, delves deep into the lives of several employees throughout the story. The lives of these employees and their interactions become the most important part of Orozco’s work and the main character that is being spoken to becomes an unimportant observer in an intricate atmosphere.

“Indirect realism is the view that we know only indirectly the physical world that exists outside of our minds.” It is confusing to understand the idea that “we only know indirectly what exists outside of our minds.” If everything we are looking at we are seeing indirectly, then how do we know that the physical objects are there? In indirect realism Feser argues that our senses represent physical objects so the objects we see come from our senses and are like them.(Feser,7)Objects in our mind depend on information that we perceive through our body, and is processed by our mind. In indirect realism the premises would be the existence of objects depending on our perception and relying on our senses.
Growing up I heard many stories from my peers of their experiences at the dentist’s office. It is upsetting to say that most of my visits were vividly terrifying. As a child, the grinding, scratching, and high-pitched twangs of the instruments digging around in my mouth would leave my ears ringing and teeth vibrating every single time. The smell of fluoride and disinfectants permanently infected the air, sending chills through my body the minute I walked in. I quickly learned that latex posses an extremely unappetizing aftertaste. Needless to say, I was not always enthusiastic about going to the dentist’s office and getting braces did not make anything better for me.
Oftentimes, a person can look at an image and draw a conclusion about it, only to find out later that he or she was incorrect. This phenomenon is due to what is called an optical illusion, in which an image is perceived incorrectly to be something else. This leads to the questions, why do optical illusions occur, and what can be done about them?
