The Writing Process
The Writing Process is something that is very important to think about when you are writing a paper. The writing process is simply the steps you go though when you are going to write a paper. The fist big step is to find out exactly what you are writing about. Then you need to take that and study and research it and gain as much knowledge on the subject as you can. Next you need to develop a thesis for the paper though your topic that you studied. Then start with a first draft. That in a nutshell is the Writing Process.

The perfect introduction
When writing a paper one of the most important parts of your essay is the introduction. The reason this is so important is that it gives the audience what your thesis is and it also gets them hooked in on your topic. The beginning of your introduction needs to have something that gets your audience hooked on your paper. Next you need to get your readers thinking and really gain their attention. You will also need to give your thesis for your paper. An introduction will pretty much outline everything that you will talk about in your paper.

Classification and Division
The definition of what classification and division are is pretty simple. Classification is how you would define or what category the topic could fit into. Division is simply taking the topic and separating it into different smaller categories.

Three very important phrases from my New York Times article are. "He saw the killing as a wildly overzealous reaction." tactical assault groups. Peace Officer. I would define this first phase as a reaction from a man who's son in law was just kill and he believes that his death shouldn't have occurred. The second phrase has to do with a group of trained individuals that go into dangerous situations to accomplish a goal of some kind. The phrase Peace Officer is talking about a police officer or some individual who works to keep peace and stop anarchy.

Definitions
It's very important for author to use definitions when trying to make a point to an audience. Definitions allow the audience to better understand and help get the exact point across that the author is trying to make. An example of this is an article given by the New York Times that talks about modern law enforcement and how it is becoming "militarized". http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/16/movies/review-peace-officer-explores-military-style-raids-by-law-enforcement.html?_r=0 This article defines what they are talking about when they say "militarized". The larger social picture that this article put across is that modern police are become more of a military then peace keepers and how people think that this needs to change.

In this blog I'm going to talk about five more rhetorical tools. The first tool is the process of eye tracking. This is a tool that advertisers use that shows what about a picture catches the eye and what the eye spends the most time on. Another tool is visual anchoring. This is the thing in a picture that you come back to time after time and keeps your attention. The next tools are explicit and implicit advertising. Explicit advertising is when the message is very clear and is obvious to the audience. Implicit is when the message in the advertising is hidden and takes more thought to figure out.

Compare and Contrast blogs
I am compared my blog with Gages blog and we both have very similar blogs. The design and format of the blogs are the same and the blogs themselves are also very similar. The only real differences that I found in out blogs is the content in the blog.
