    I read this issue/feature and recommend you check out this article. How can apps enhance your life? Save you money? Keep you organized? Serve as a flashlight? and academic quality? Wired is the foremost trusted publication on technology and society and you can use this review as a trusted culture censor: what Wired (in partnership with Gizmodo) recommends, you should open your mind to.

      What does this language accomplish?
  • With the Persian Gulf War long over, a Democrat in the Oval Office who's committed to withdrawing from Afghanistan and California taking the lead on fighting carbon pollution and switching to renewable energy, the Greens just don't have any hot-button issues they can use to attract or motivate voters.

      What's the primary appeal? Logos, pathos, or ethos?
  • That might change under a Mitt Romney administration -- and in the unlikely event the Greens could siphon off Democratic votes in large numbers in November, they could inadvertently bring such a disaster about.
    • Billy Gerchick
      Billy Gerchick on 11 Jul 12
       
      Read this next sentence and describe what the author's use of the word "disaster" does to his ethos.

  • It's not easy being Green. And it's also not especially smart.
    • Billy Gerchick

      Pay attention to the conventions: Why capitalize "Green"? Also, what do you think about the conclusion?
  • California's Green Party should buckle its Birkenstocks and move on
    • Billy Gerchick
      Billy Gerchick on 11 Jul 12
       
      Evaluate the title. Do you think it's effective? Also, as you read the article, consider the primary and secondary audiences and think about how this impacts them.
  • California's Green Party was born in 1991, during a flurry of liberal outrage against Bush's war -- the first Bush, that is, and his shortlived liberation action for Kuwait. California activists, with memories of Vietnam still floating among their 1THC-dulled synapses , saw the Persian Gulf War as a conflict led by a hated Republican president who was sacrificing American blood for oil -- and a Green movement that had been sputtering before war was declared suddenly took root. More antiwar and pro-environment than the Democratic Party at the time, it was, for a while, a fashionable protest party for the crunchy-granola set .

      This functions as a lead, but it also "frames" the issue, essential background information on the subject.
  • But the sprout never really blossomed.

      Billy Gerchick on 11 Jul 12
       
      Note how this transitions to the next idea and implies author tone towards the subject.

  • Mas

  • "Of the energy you're putting into an electric car when you plug it in, you probably get 80% to 90% translated into useful power at the wheels," say Professor Roger Kemp, author of a Royal Academy of Engineering (RAE) report on electric cars. "And that's really very good, because in a conventional car it's more like 20% to 30%, with the rest coming out as heat through the radiator and the exhaust pipe."
