A discourse community is a group of people involved in and communicating about a particular topic, issue, or in a particular field.

According to Porter, “A ‘discourse community’ is a group of individuals bound by a common interest who communicate through approved channels and whose discourse is regulated. A discourse community shares assumptions about what objects are appropriate for examination and discussion, what constitutes ‘evidence’ and ‘validity’ and what formal conventions are followed (38-39).” These five texts collectively constitute a community of discourse through their application of common language norms, characteristics, patterns and rhetorical strategies. All of the authors are writing about corresponding ideas and discussing their identical goals; the prevalence of gender inequality in the legal profession and the unjust consequences derived from it. Similarly, all five sources intentions are to oppose the standard viewpoint that gender inequality has diminished and provide evidence to support this claim. Their ideas of remedying gender inequality in the legal profession overlap as well as contradict one another.

Next, they decided they should head to bed due to the early times they would have to wake in the morning. As they woke up, they put on their layers of clothes, grabbed their bags, and headed for the Johnsons’ business. They would be staying in an attic, which luckily had a bathroom, but would have to sleep all in one room. They set up their belongings and set rules which they would have to follow to stay safe.

Calmly, as though she dealt with storms and wedding parties every day, Alma stepped up onto the porch and shouted. “Give us a minute and you can leave with a bite of sweet memories. Or if you choose to stay, Eb and Ned can shovel out the barn enough to make you a place.”

Due to various medical advancements and larger generation sizes, the number of individuals reaching old age continues increase in the United States. With advancing age, individuals experience normal changes in language, memory, and hearing. Additionally, cognitive disorders and other diseases, such as stroke, dementia, and traumatic brain injury, are more likely to occur in the elderly and can cause language deficits and impairments. Due to the increase in elderly individuals and the various changes in language that occur as individual age, it is important to understand the changes that occur and how these changes affect the lives of the elderly.

I completely agree that I think it would be crazy of me to attach my own personal device to a government device. Because if I did, they do have a right to search it if there were suspicions about me. Overall, they only time this should be legal to search if only there is a suspicion and not just because my employer can search whenever. Searches should only be used to protect and not for the fun of

sing a locksmith’s set of lock picks, the back door of the Nightingale’s Floridian safe house opens without a hitch. Tina heads inside the building, only to find the house’s interior to be completely dark. After turning on the light switch, she soon realized that she was inside the living room area of the house. Immediately, she carefully surveyed the room she was, and as it turned out, the place is entirely devoid of human life. For a moment, it seemed as if the original occupants had just got up and ran. Upon making this observation, Tina called out to her accomplices, who were waiting for her outside. “It’s all clear inside,” she whispered to them, “You guys can come in now.”

When attempting to convey an idea, one must choose a form of media to express that idea to his or her audience. Depending on the message, some forms of media may be more expressive or accurate than others; however, I argue that the synergetic use of language, symbolism, photography, cartoons, and actions shown in film is the most expressive form of discourse. Furthermore, I argue for a new form of media that would be even more expressive by allowing a creator to make multiple art forms and communication styles that can be presented to the reader in a format that allows for the most idea expression of any previous discourse style in the past. Since many creators’ goals are to express their idea to the audience, it has been historically demonstrated

Katherine begin the tour, she let me know she was going to show me a model studio unit. Prior to arrival to the model unit we had to walk through an activity room to get to the model unit. The activity room was impressing, it had a Coke machine, a vending machine with snacks and a computer the resident could use. Katherine let me know that the residents had free WiFi.

We stopped in the activity room and Katherine explain to me that this was one of the resident activity rooms that Ms. Martha would have access to. We arrived at the model studio unit. The room was clean, neat and nicely organized. I like how the room had a central a/c and heating unit so the tenant could monitor there own room temperature. The studio room had a large enough

It was an average suburban day, the soft hum of an old Mercedes-Benz 190D is heard rolling through the streets as the luxury vehicle makes its way down the sparkling bitumen road. Pulling into house number thirty-three, the vehicle comes to a stop and out steps a gorgeous blonde, fresh from the salon having received the classic brushed-under bob.

She is greeted by an African-American maid who ushers her inside and to one of the card tables where *pause* she sits and plays solitaire with her fellow white American friends.
