Weight Watchers Buying Preferences
Consumers' buying preferences are constantly changing and have a significant influence over how companies like Weight
Watchers address this fluidity. Weight Watchers' target market is quite broad, women aged 30 to 45, so needs to consider two key
factors:
1. Consumer behaviour, purchasers of personal and household products.
2. Any or all the four segmentation variables:
Demographic factors such as age, gender, income, education and ethnicity
Geographic factors such as national boundaries, regional districts and suburban postcodes
Psychographic factors such as lifestyle, personality and motive, and
Behavioural factors such as volume usage, brand loyalty and benefit expectations (Pride, 2015).
These factors will ultimately influence a consumer's buying decision and allow organisations to create differentiation strategies. A

This study demonstrates that the demographic, psychographic and behavioral variables are important drivers for this market and
will immensely influence the consumer across the five step buying process, especially the first three steps. Weight Watchers'
competition during the 'information' and 'evaluation of alternatives' phase is further significantly influenced by the psychological
factors of this target group.
Potential customers are also being influenced by free or inexpensive diet plans that are popular on Instagram and Pinterest. These
social media platforms are having a considerable impact on the way women approach dieting, how they engage with their chosen
product and share results (Schlossberg, 2016).
These competitors provide different weight loss approaches and rely heavily on dramatic visual before and after transformations,
hashtags, Instagram opportunities and sometimes create large social

Weight Watchers Case Study
Weight Watchers: Background and Effectiveness among Individuals Participating in the Program Weight Watchers is a program
diet founded by Jean Nidetch in the early 60's in Queens, NY (Weight Watchers 2017). Weight Watchers is a popular diet program
that was created to help individuals lose unwanted weight and develop a healthier lifestyle while maintaining a flexible food menu
and exercise plan. Weight Watchers is also a unique weight–loss program because they offer different opportunities for participants
to meet with a group of like members who are also in the program in locations near them. Jean Nidetch founded Weight Watchers
in her living room when she was discussing her struggles with weight–loss with her friends and decided to make different lifestyle
choices to help her shed the weight that she did not want (Weight Watchers 2017). Nidetch began a business administration course
at City college of New York briefly before her father passed, which caused her to drop out of school to find an occupation. She
worked in different small stores and companies before she was able to create Weight Watchers where her success began. An
interesting factor of the creation of the Weight Watchers program is the lack of credentials that Nidetch had to develop a diet plan
that many others would begin to participate in. Although Nidetch did not have an educated background of nutrition, she was able
to create a diet program where individuals are able to lose weight with a flexible

What Are The Disadvantages Of Weight Watchers

Pasta, pizza, cheese, even ice cake. You can have what you want under Weight Watchers diet – provided you're willing to count the
points. Each food is designated a number of points, and foods that fill your stomach and satisfy your hunger have less points than
foods that are just empty calories and provide high energy.
This diet is accompanied by lifestyle change program made to help you learn how to eat healthier and become more energetic, so
you lose the weight for a better health
Weight Watchers plan states that people who follow the Points Plus plan can expect to lose 2 or 3 pounds a week. Research shows

Nutrition
Researchers were impressed with the nutritional quality of Weight Watchers, scoring it higher than most other plans. They said the
program promotes healthy, balanced eating. It's in accordance with the recommendations for fat, protein and carb consumption,
and getting enough of all the important nutrients.
Easy to Follow
No other diet outperformed Weight Watchers on this measure. Why? You'll get enough to eat, you don't have to eliminate any
favourites, and there's a strong emphasis on emotional support, which tends to lead to higher compliance.
SAFETY
Weight Watchers got high points for being safe. Dieters don't have to worry about health problems such as not getting enough key
nutrients or losing weight too quickly. No indications of serious side effects have surfaced, and the program is good for almost
everyone.
Lowering LDL
Research indicates Weight Watchers helps lower bad LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels – both risk factors for heart disease.

More effective or more favorably perceived diet and weight management methods, including pharmaceutical treatments, fat and

main competitors for Weight watchers included Jenny Craig, Slim–Fast, NutriSystem, eDiets, The Zone, South Beach Diet, and

them exactly what they are searching for an indirect approach to an effective product. Another word, consumers like to buy things
that catch their eye, and are willing to sacrifice whatever it takes; if they can continue to have what they long for. This includes but
not limited to foods such as, chocolate, McDonald's, a milkshake; even pizza without any type of backlash from to sticking to a set
diet plan. With Weight Watchers, they do just that, give their clients options through Points Plus which you follow on a weekly
basis; and adjust if needed to meet your goals. For example, if you over indulge in pizza during the week than you can just make
some type of adjustment in a different area of calories to even the Point plus system out. By doing this Weight Watchers is given
them the green light to cheat occasionally, that eating what they desire is ok; for they will still melt pounds if the follow their Point
plus system to the tee. Furthermore, Weight Watchers took into consideration what they want do to (lose weight), something that
makes them proud to look in the mirror, feel wonderful about themselves; while busting their ambition to keep off the pounds.

Dieting is one thing that most people find themselves doing at some point in their lives. Whether it is excessive exercise, limiting
calorie intake, or a combination of both, it can be a struggle to lose weight. Today, there are hundreds of types of diets that
Americans are trying. There are some that have better outcomes compared to many others that can have no effect on you. Three of
the most common diets in this generation are the Atkins Diet, the Weight Watchers Diet, and the South Beach Diet.
The Atkins Diet
The Atkins Diet is a diet that was designed by a man named Robert Adkins. This diet is an approach where you limit the amount of
carbohydrates that you are consuming. Atkins started this diet by first using it to solve his own overweight problem. His story got

Weight Watchers has become a household name, it has over 30 million members and is used in many countries. I think one of the
biggest reasons why Weight Watchers has been able to stick around is because of their weekly meetings. During those weekly
members talk about their weight loss goals, share eating tips, exercise, and they also discuss behavioral changes that are necessary

For one, it is not safe for children. The program's strict point system would not fit a child's daily calorie intake. Because a child's

weight watchers has limits them from consuming the amount needed for a child's diet. I think they would either eat too much of
certain food group and not eat enough of another. I think it's a lose–lose situation for a child. Aside from their nutritional needs not

Yet few question the morality of Weight Watchers. But what's the difference? Why is manipulating users through flashy advertising
or addictive video games thought to be distasteful while a strict system of food rationing is considered laudable?
"Getting it right is expensive, getting it first is cheap"
Media manipulation exploits the difference between perception and reality.
This all happens because of the poor incentives. When readers don't PAY for news, the creators of the news don't have any loyalty
to the readers either. Everything is read one off, passed around on Facebook and Twitter instead of by subscription. As a result,
there is no consequence for burning anyone. Manipulators can deceive journalists because journalists are not held responsible for
deceiving readers. Which leads us to ask the question: at what point does communication become manipulation? Intent
distinguishes the differences between communication and manipulation.

were cutting I was walking around and was commenting and how their candy canes were looking so far. I had the students place all
the red pieces on the white candy cane. Once most students were finished I told them to take off every other red strip. I told the
students that it is really important for the element of space that you leave the red pieces where they where. This will add the
element of line into our candy cane. After that I had the students glue down the pieces. Once the pieces were glued on I had the

Weaknesses
As the "face" of Weight Watchers, Oprah is now tied to the company's image. Oprah is legendary for being a media mogul and for
having many weight fluctuations over her lifetime. In the late 1880's she lost 67 pounds in five months and famously wheeled fat

Oprah has been vulnerable to cravings and Temptations in the past. Therefore, Oprah's poses a risk to the company's image if she

The First Stage Of The Consumer Decision Process
The first stage of the consumer decision process is need/problem recognition. Most people who are looking for a diet see a need to
please themselves and need change physically. When looking at a diet consumers are looking for something that is functional and
can change them. The marketers can influence my decision by initially being perceived as something that I need. Information is the
next step in deciding what to get based on the consumer's needs. Internal and external information will be put in to play when
deciding where to head next. Internal information is present information and comes from previous experiences. External
information is what someone finds when looking for a solution for their needs. Both types of information can be used to market
positively and negatively. Marketers can do everything they can to have their product be put in a good light. When consumers look
externally markets can give reasons why it's worth a consumer's time to use their product with little to no risk. With all information
available it's time to make a decision. Decision can be hard to make depending on the needs of a consumer. There are criteria
involved in making a decision and depending on if the product fits the criteria will determine if it will be purchased. The

Heroines from various tales tend to be different from each other. Heroines tend to have positive and negative qualities to them.
Archetypes can differ between the heroines as well. What makes a heroine isn't a set amount of qualities, its a female doing what

The Problem Of Weight Watchers
Introduction and Problem Statement
Weight Watchers has faced a number of issues in the past several years, many of which are highlighted in the case study for this
assignment. The company was able to reach a financial high point earlier this decade in 2011 when it recorded a record breaking
1.8 billion in revenues. However, the company's finances have slowly dwindled ever since then, culminating in losses for seven
straight quarters and low stock prices at the beginning of 2015. The core of the problems it was facing were relatively
straightforward. The weight loss industry was changing, and Weight Watchers was having difficult changing along with it.
Specifically, the company had troubles modernizing its business model to account for the digital age as represented by increasing
online options for weight loss. This fact was compounded by the reality that there was greater competition, including that from
organizations whose primary business was to capitalize on digital technology to attract customers. Technologies such as mobile
devices, mobile applications, cloud computing, and social media had made considerable strides in the way that people were
monitoring and attempting to lose weight. Weight Watchers, however, had had only marginal success using these technologies, and
faced the undesirable situation in which its methods were becoming rapidly outdated.

Semihazah Watchers
In the Book of Enoch, the Watchers are the fallen angels, also referred to as the "Sons of God," who have sinned by giving false
revelations and engaging into sexual relations with females. The Watchers therefore, crossed the boundaries between the sacred

and Azazel. Azazel was the leader of the improper revelations, of showing and telling the wrong teachings. This is a sin because it
is the providence of God to deliver revelations, not the job of the fallen angels. This is critical because the false revelations would

Qumran was a settlement inhabited by the Essenes. The Essenes were a strict, isolationist, Judaism group that believed themselves
to be the "right" group and all other groups were wrong. This resulted in their isolation from other groups because they were
unsuccessful in convincing other groups to live by their standards. The Essenes expected that the end was near. The Hasmoneans
can be viewed as Jewish terrorists or freedom fighters that wanted to establish a Jewish state. They were successful in
overthrowing Greek rule and establishing a Jewish state. The Hasmoneans also claimed king and priestly roles. However, kings
were only supposed to be from the line of David and priestly roles were only to be fulfilled from the lineage of Zadok. Therefore,
the Hasmonean rule was breaking covenant rules because its rulers did not abide by the proper lineages. The Teacher of
Righteousness, who served as the official mediator of revelation, taught that what the Hasmoneans were doing was wrong and that
it would lead to the end. The Essenes viewed themselves as the "Sons of Light," representing the community and goodness. They
viewed all outsiders as the "Sons of Darkness" because they were believed to be evil and demonic. The "Sons of Darkness" were

until he meets a dog who he later names einstein. Vincent Nasco is an mentally–ill cereal killer who will do anything for money
and fame. Nora Devon is a quiet person who believes she is not anything special, until she lets her guard down and meets the love
of her life. Throughout the story, Nora and Travis meet and fall in love and discover what Einstein truly is. When a creature from a

First, this theme is shown when Lemuel Johnson describes how ugly and dangerous the Outsider is. Lem states, "The two were the
yin and yang of the Francis Project, the success and the failure, the good and the bad. The Outsider was every bit as hideous,
wrong, and evil" (Koontz 179). This signifies the negative and dangerous effects of technology because something can always go
wrong when dealing with technology. In Watchers, the Outsider happened to be what went wrong in the experiment, which led to
many negative effects. Throughout the book, the outsider kills and harms many innocent people. The dangers of technology
throughout watchers shows that no animal should created into something other than what they truly are. Another example of this is
when Travis finds outside einstein was created in a Lab. Travis states, "'In a lab,' Travis said. Yes, yes, yes" (Koontz 214). Because
Einstein was created in a lab he will never have a normal life. Einstein always fears that the outsider is coming closer to kill him
and his family. He always has to worry about protecting his family and he will never live a normal dog life because of the
experiments he endured while in the lab. The negative effects of technology is shown because the scientists take animals and create

game operates on the dark web, shared with others via a special link and emphasizes not disclosing its operation to law

Not only does this illustrate how information gleaned from social media influences decisions, but it eludes to the idea that Nerve
has few limits in regard methods for metastasizing its own user base and retaining existing users. This opens discussion on how
social media platforms use advanced algorithms to show users content that interests them and keep them coming back to the
platform, almost as of addicted. Nerve proves that the influences are strong enough to create a romantic relationship, or interpreted
more symbolically, the power to control major life decisions. Next, forcing players to compete in the public arena attracts a great
deal of attention to the game. Curiosity causes people to investigate the game: if they join as watchers, they will likely want to
share the game with their friends; joining as players may have the same effect, but could also create a more ubiquitous, version of
the game, causing exponential growth purely through exposure. Nerve's only purpose is to grow, because more users implies more
money. Social media platforms in general exists to sell advertisements, and advertisers will pay more to reach a larger audience.

those stubborn pounds.
Weight Watchers has been around, but it has been until very recently that they developed a special "Points" system, which consists
of assigning a point–value to foods based on the amount of kilo joules, fat and (in theory) the amount of fibre each food contains.
All this is estimated by using a patented formula.
This diet program allows you to record your points in an online journal if you are following the flex plan. It allows you to see all of
the foods on the core plan and have access to a point calculator to figure the points in specific foods that you have nutritional info.

The Book of the Watchers expanded upon Genesis 6:4, where the "sons of God", against their better judgement, married mortal
women and eventually had ravaging children. Many of these angels then revealed secrets to their new wives, including how to
make "swords of iron and weapons and shields and breastplates and every instrument of war" (Enoch 8:1). Noah is a modern

In the Book of Watchers, the Watchers's offspring inaptly created by the fallen angels and their wives, referred to as giants,
eventually devastated the earth, filling it with sin and destruction. Not only did the giants steal all of the food and other resources
available, they also began killing men and eating them as well. In response to the wickedness, God warned Noah that there would
soon be a flood to rid the world of evil. In Enoch 10:4–15, Raphael, Gabriel, and Michael were also sent to punish those who had
done wrong. Punishments included being bound, covering them with darkness, destroying them, and general torture. The fallen
angels were continuously disciplined until judgement day. If the Watchers hadn't come to earth and reproduced, this trouble would
have been avoided. But these events existed to ultimately give a reason for why the flood occurred. Without all of the wrongdoing,
there would be no purpose for the flood. In Noah, conversely, the giants serve a completely different purpose. Here, the Watchers
were angels sent to Earth to help humans survive after the fall of Adam and Eve. Following his dreams where he was underwater,

amazing for a diet to let you eat things you eat now, but still lose weight; to be able to go out and enjoy dinner with family and
friends without fearing a diet choice that has already been made. Well, Weight Watchers lets a person do all this and so much more.

Weight Watchers was designed so that people can take charge of their lives and their weight without having to suffer with horrible
tasting food or having a constant rumbling stomach. Not only does it help people lose weight but it helps them be conscious about
what they eat and how healthy something really is. Once they start to see pounds shedding off and their waist size shrinking, they
will begin to eat better and change their life styles. This is not just a diet for when someone is over weight. This is a diet for a life
time. It will continue to help a person achieve and maintain a healthy weight without having to cut out some of their favorite foods,
fattening or not. Weight Watchers has activity points just like they do regular food point. This also comes with a nifty slider so that
when someone goes to the gym or even goes for a walk, they can calculate how intense it was to how long they participated in this
activity for and gain activity points which give people all the more motivation to get out there and be active. They can then turn
around and trade these points in for food points. In conclusion, this is by far the best diet program out there. They do not try to put
products or medications in your body that can in the long run be dangerous for you. Even once someone pays for

Weight Watchers Buying Preferences

  • 1. Weight Watchers Buying Preferences Consumers' buying preferences are constantly changing and have a significant influence over how companies like Weight Watchers address this fluidity. Weight Watchers' target market is quite broad, women aged 30 to 45, so needs to consider two key factors: 1. Consumer behaviour, purchasers of personal and household products. 2. Any or all the four segmentation variables: Demographic factors such as age, gender, income, education and ethnicity Geographic factors such as national boundaries, regional districts and suburban postcodes Psychographic factors such as lifestyle, personality and motive, and Behavioural factors such as volume usage, brand loyalty and benefit expectations (Pride, 2015).

This study demonstrates that the demographic, psychographic and behavioral variables are important drivers for this market and will immensely influence the consumer across the five step buying process, especially the first three steps. Weight Watchers' competition during the 'information' and 'evaluation of alternatives' phase is further significantly influenced by the psychological factors of this target group. Potential customers are also being influenced by free or inexpensive diet plans that are popular on Instagram and Pinterest. These social media platforms are having a considerable impact on the way women approach dieting, how they engage with their chosen product and share results (Schlossberg, 2016). These competitors provide different weight loss approaches and rely heavily on dramatic visual before and after transformations, hashtags, Instagram opportunities and sometimes create large social ...

  • 3. Weight Watchers Case Study Weight Watchers: Background and Effectiveness among Individuals Participating in the Program Weight Watchers is a program diet founded by Jean Nidetch in the early 60's in Queens, NY (Weight Watchers 2017). Weight Watchers is a popular diet program that was created to help individuals lose unwanted weight and develop a healthier lifestyle while maintaining a flexible food menu and exercise plan. Weight Watchers is also a unique weight–loss program because they offer different opportunities for participants to meet with a group of like members who are also in the program in locations near them. Jean Nidetch founded Weight Watchers in her living room when she was discussing her struggles with weight–loss with her friends and decided to make different lifestyle choices to help her shed the weight that she did not want (Weight Watchers 2017). Nidetch began a business administration course at City college of New York briefly before her father passed, which caused her to drop out of school to find an occupation. She worked in different small stores and companies before she was able to create Weight Watchers where her success began. An interesting factor of the creation of the Weight Watchers program is the lack of credentials that Nidetch had to develop a diet plan that many others would begin to participate in. Although Nidetch did not have an educated background of nutrition, she was able to create a diet program where individuals are able to lose weight with a flexible ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

This includes but not limited to foods such as, chocolate, McDonald's, a milkshake; even pizza without any type of backlash from to sticking to a set diet plan. With Weight Watchers, they do just that, give their clients options through Points Plus which you follow on a weekly basis; and adjust if needed to meet your goals. For example, if you over indulge in pizza during the week than you can just make some type of adjustment in a different area of calories to even the Point plus system out. By doing this Weight Watchers is given them the green light to cheat occasionally, that eating what they desire is ok; for they will still melt pounds if the follow their Point plus system to the tee. Furthermore, Weight Watchers took into consideration what they want do to (lose weight), something that makes them proud to look in the mirror, feel wonderful about themselves; while busting their ambition to keep off the pounds. What better way to get people's interest than to offer this service at no cost to them, and no obligation just for inquiring; just come in and see for yourself then decide (no pressure, and no gimmicks).

A type of change that affected me was changing into a different role in the company and the tasks that were required. While at CIGNA Healthcare, I started as a claims processor in 2007. I started out working on national accounts and worked my way up to processing the top accounts and performing other duties. My supervisor advised me that our department was slowly fading away. Employees with high numbers would stay, but unsure of how long, and others could possibly lose their job. She told me my best choice would be to look for a new job within the company so I could advance my skills and learn more, eventually obtaining the career I desired. I interviewed and received the position in the contract department. It was new and no one had performed this job except in Connecticut. I talked it over with my supervisor before accepting the position. After discussing it with her, my counselor, I finally accepted. It was a different atmosphere compared to what I was used to, ranging from the supervisor techniques to the job itself. My supervisor in claims was very supportive and a non–micro manager. She stated her expectations up front and allowed employees to make certain decisions, such as when they wanted to come in, choose between a 30 minute lunch to an hour, and allowed us to make our schedule (as long as we put in 40 hours). The supervisor in contracts was a micromanager. We had to tell him what time we were coming in and if it changed, we had to email him, and our schedule overall (lunch, work week, time we left) needed to stay consistent. He was upfront about expectations, but weekly, it would change.

I watched her jump from one diet to another unsuccessfully, until she tried Weight Watchers. Weight Watchers is diet plan that was invented in the early 60's by an overweight housewife named Jean Nidetch. Like most Americans she was tired of denying herself cabs, desserts and whatever else she wanted to eat for the cost of losing weight. Weight Watchers has become a household name, it has over 30 million members and is used in many countries. I think one of the biggest reasons why Weight Watchers has been able to stick around is because of their weekly meetings. During those weekly members talk about their weight loss goals, share eating tips, exercise, and they also discuss behavioral changes that are necessary to attaining a healthier lifestyle. Losing weight is not easy, but when you have the support of a group, it goes a long way. Weight Watchers promises you can eat whatever your heart desires, in moderation, of course. It follows a ...

Because a child's body is still growing, I think they need their recommended daily intake of fruits, veggies, legumes, fats and cabs. The plan that weight watchers has limits them from consuming the amount needed for a child's diet. I think they would either eat too much of certain food group and not eat enough of another. I think it's a lose–lose situation for a child. Aside from their nutritional needs not being met with the Weight Watchers diet I think that introducing a child to such a strict diet while they are still developing can hurt them psychologically. The diet plan's calorie counting, introduces a unhealthy relationship with food, which can later lead to an eating ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The Internet represents the most efficient means of mass communication – a place where information is readily available and millions can be reached with the click of a button. The incalculable enormity and accessibility of the Internet means that we are constantly bombarded with messages and ideas that are often misleading and incomplete.

But what's the difference? Why is manipulating users through flashy advertising or addictive video games thought to be distasteful while a strict system of food rationing is considered laudable? "Getting it right is expensive, getting it first is cheap" Media manipulation exploits the difference between perception and reality. This all happens because of the poor incentives. When readers don't PAY for news, the creators of the news don't have any loyalty to the readers either. Everything is read one off, passed around on Facebook and Twitter instead of by subscription. As a result, there is no consequence for burning anyone. Manipulators can deceive journalists because journalists are not held responsible for deceiving readers. Which leads us to ask the question: at what point does communication become manipulation? Intent distinguishes the differences between communication and manipulation. Rise of the curated self.

I used this classroom management strategy so that I could clearly see who was ready. I had created a candy cane so that I could do the activity with the students so they could clearly see what needed to be done. I started by having the students cut the red strips. It was interesting to see how students did this. Some would cut straight across, and some students would have cuts that were slanted. As the students were cutting I was walking around and was commenting and how their candy canes were looking so far. I had the students place all the red pieces on the white candy cane. Once most students were finished I told them to take off every other red strip. I told the students that it is really important for the element of space that you leave the red pieces where they where. This will add the element of line into our candy cane. After that I had the students glue down the pieces. Once the pieces were glued on I had the students take the brown square and cut out a circle for the head.

Facebook: Watching the Watchers Patrick White's thesis in "Facebook: Watching the Watchers" states that Facebook has bridged a gap in family communications, that it has improved the levels of communication within the family. Family members used to have a wall that blocked their lives from each other. Now, with Facebook, Parents have windows into the lives of their children. These windows go both ways, and now children can peek into the lives of their parents. In White's article, he uses the story of Shelley van der Spank, a mother who signs up for Facebook only to discover that while she can spy on her daughter, her daughter also has the ability to keep tabs on her, to explain how Facebook has become a tool that "bridges a chasm once rarely crossed between student life and family life" and he goes on to say "Family dynamics may never be the same" (p.521). I agree with White's statement on family dynamics changing due to Facebook, but not for the better. Without the little distance that is created between student and family life, a child runs the risk of not fully developing proper communication skills, which would impact their future family. The child of the house, while still communicating with family, uses Facebook as a medium, still putting a up digital avatar for their family to interact.

The marketers can influence my decision by initially being perceived as something that I need. Information is the next step in deciding what to get based on the consumer's needs. Internal and external information will be put in to play when deciding where to head next. Internal information is present information and comes from previous experiences. External information is what someone finds when looking for a solution for their needs. Both types of information can be used to market positively and negatively.

Specifically, the company had troubles modernizing its business model to account for the digital age as represented by increasing online options for weight loss.

The Hasmoneans can be viewed as Jewish terrorists or freedom fighters that wanted to establish a Jewish state. They were successful in overthrowing Greek rule and establishing a Jewish state. The Hasmoneans also claimed king and priestly roles. However, kings were only supposed to be from the line of David and priestly roles were only to be fulfilled from the lineage of Zadok. Therefore, the Hasmonean rule was breaking covenant rules because its rulers did not abide by the proper lineages. The Teacher of Righteousness, who served as the official mediator of revelation, taught that what the Hasmoneans were doing was wrong and that it would lead to the end. The Essenes viewed themselves as the "Sons of Light," representing the community and goodness. They viewed all outsiders as the "Sons of Darkness" because they were believed to be evil and demonic.

First, this theme is shown when Lemuel Johnson describes how ugly and dangerous the Outsider is. Lem states, "The two were the yin and yang of the Francis Project, the success and the failure, the good and the bad. The Outsider was every bit as hideous, wrong, and evil" (Koontz 179). This signifies the negative and dangerous effects of technology because something can always go wrong when dealing with technology. In Watchers, the Outsider happened to be what went wrong in the experiment, which led to many negative effects. Throughout the book, the outsider kills and harms many innocent people. The dangers of technology throughout watchers shows that no animal should created into something other than what they truly are. Another example of this is when Travis finds outside einstein was created in a Lab. Travis states, "'In a lab,' Travis said. Yes, yes, yes" (Koontz 214).

Nerve proves that the influences are strong enough to create a romantic relationship, or interpreted more symbolically, the power to control major life decisions. Next, forcing players to compete in the public arena attracts a great deal of attention to the game. Curiosity causes people to investigate the game: if they join as watchers, they will likely want to share the game with their friends; joining as players may have the same effect, but could also create a more ubiquitous, version of the game, causing exponential growth purely through exposure.

The theory: reducing caloric intake and increasing physical activity and personal accountability will help people lose weight and keep it off. This program is divided into two phases. Phase One, the Quick Start phase, lasts about three weeks and is intended to jump–start weight loss with meal replacements including low–calorie shakes, meals, nutrition bars and multigrain hot cereal that the program delivers right to your door. Once reaching their goal weight, dieters move on to Phase Two. This is the maintenance phase in which a person begins to incorporate other healthy food options into their HMR meal replacements.

  • 65. Book Of Watchers Research Paper In this paper, I will argue that the Book of Watchers portrays the fallen angels as corrupt and evil, while Noah depicts the Watchers as heroes with great intentions. The Book of the Watchers expanded upon Genesis 6:4, where the "sons of God", against their better judgement, married mortal women and eventually had ravaging children. Many of these angels then revealed secrets to their new wives, including how to make "swords of iron and weapons and shields and breastplates and every instrument of war" (Enoch 8:1). Noah is a modern movie loosely inspired by the Biblical story of Noah's Ark. Throughout the first half of the movie, the Watchers were constantly interacting with Noah and his crew. While it wasn't explicitly stated who taught Noah ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In the Book of Watchers, the Watchers's offspring inaptly created by the fallen angels and their wives, referred to as giants, eventually devastated the earth, filling it with sin and destruction. Not only did the giants steal all of the food and other resources available, they also began killing men and eating them as well. In response to the wickedness, God warned Noah that there would soon be a flood to rid the world of evil. In Enoch 10:4–15, Raphael, Gabriel, and Michael were also sent to punish those who had done wrong. Punishments included being bound, covering them with darkness, destroying them, and general torture. The fallen angels were continuously disciplined until judgement day. If the Watchers hadn't come to earth and reproduced, this trouble would have been avoided. But these events existed to ultimately give a reason for why the flood occurred. Without all of the wrongdoing, there would be no purpose for the flood. In Noah, conversely, the giants serve a completely different purpose. Here, the Watchers were angels sent to Earth to help humans survive after the fall of Adam and Eve. Following his dreams where he was underwater, Noah finds out that the flood will soon transpire. A forest then appears, along with the Watchers, whose main purpose was to help Noah gather wood to finish the ark. Prior to completion of the ark, Tubal–Cain and his ...

  • 67. Margaret In The Watcher There are three different, but interesting characters in The Watcher a novel by James Howe. One of the characters is Margaret, who is a bony girl with brown hair. Who, is all ways by herself sitting on the beach and writing in her notebook. A high school graduate, that everyone one calls Chris and he is a lifeguard on the beach. So far, he has no idea what to be and he's dealing with his brother's death plus, his dad's depression. Chris notices a guy playing around with his sister, the guy's name is Evan. Evan on the other hand, thinks that he isn't perfect like Chris because he's the "coolest guy on the beach"(27). Besides that, Evan was scared of his sister dying and he didn't need the protecting in fact, he "needed the truth"(35). Actually, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... But, has the same perfect wants like Margaret and Chris. First of all, Evan goes around "label[ing] people"(42) in fact, he does that because he secretly wished "he could be"(43) them. But, we all know we can't want someone to make us perfect. One day, Callie came back from the hospital and Evan knew she might die. But, he wants her perfectly healthy and Evan was afraid of his sister dying, and he needed "the truth"(35). Secondly, Evan wants a perfect family because he thought that it is falling apart like a broken mirror. But, when he looks at his own family, he thought that he is "never going to get married"(11). Anyways beside that, Evan's mom even wanted her life to be perfect as a "perfect sand dollar"(112). For example, Evan's mom gave him a broken snail shell. Evan indeed thought that it's "not perfect"(113). But not everything is to be perfect, Evan's mom thinks that it is "still beautiful" (113). The common human error happens in Evan's life because Evan starts out thinking that there is such a thing as perfection and that there's something wrong within everyone if people settle for ...

  • 69. Stump-Watchers In Han Feiizi's ' Han Feizi does not like the way of the former kings, he thinks that it is an old thing to do. Han Feizi also says, "Those who think they can take the ways of the ancient kings and use them to govern the people of today all belong in the category of stump– watchers" (Pg. 98)! This category that he is putting them in, I think is almost like the lowest of the low. Stump–watchers are people who think something that happened one time will happen repeatedly. He just wants to put a modern way of thinking on the old. The way that he is going about it though I think is completely wrong because it is hard to uproot people's lives, and tell them that they are all wrong. Instead, he could just have tried to bend the rules and modernize them. We see ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Doubt would come in the form of showing ambition to gain the throne. I think this is apparent when Han Feizi says, "The beast called the dragon can be tamed and trained to the point where you may ride on its back. But on the underside of his throat, it has scaled a foot in diameter that curls back from the body, and anyone who chances to brush against them is sure to die" (Pg. 79). I think this quote is talking about ambition and how it can get you killed if you do not follow the law. The law must be clear so that subordinates do not try to become the king. Becoming the king in the sense that they are not following the rituals assigned to them and they are following the rituals of the king. To finish off the quote and how it is relevant to this chapter Han Feizi say, "The ruler of men too has as his bristling scales. Only if a speaker can avoid brushing against them will he have any hope for success" (Pg. 78). This is saying for someone to come into office or ministry that they should not butt heads with the king. They should abide by the laws and then not go outside of them. For when they go outside of the laws then they will be punished for the laws are only beneficial for the king. Someone who is going to try and take over with their thoughts is probably going to die because it is not they're right according to the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 73. The Watchers Research Paper "Have you ever seen a picture with eyes that seem to follow you? Most people feel uneasy around them, but most people also learn to shrug the feeling off. It's true that a lot of paintings are just paintings, but some . . . are more. Those are The Watchers, and The Watchers are everywhere. The Watchers were the first to cross over from the north; they crossed so long ago that by the time Dragons came, The Watchers were a legend even to them. But the truth is this: they're out there and they'll never die out. The Watchers aren't the paintings. If that were the case, they would've died out, vanished, or been forgotten long ago. The paintings aren't The Watchers, just like your shadow isn't yourself. But just like you're never far from your shadow, The Watchers are never far from their paintings. What is a creature that can sit in silence for eternity and do nothing but observe and collect information? Why do they collect information? Everything in this world has a purpose. What is the use of a creature that only watches? The truth is, no one knows. Some say that they report back to the Storytellers, who shape the history of mankind. Others say they report to The Weavers; who can bend the very fabric of existence. There is a third option: they report ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The painting's pull is so great that no one can be brought to notice anything else. Even the people working at the museum are aware of nothing other than the painting when in its presence.

They stare into the wall, as if they could see the world there, except their eyes are completely blank; and yet, somewhere, in the depth of their darkness, hides a terrible consciousness.

The UN has been doing everything in their power to stop the genocide around the world, but I think that they won't succeed because there are some dictators in our world who lead their countries for their self–interest, and leave the people with cruel choice which is the hard choice between rather they want to follow their leader and be safe or not follow their leader and be killed by their leader. For example, in the movie called watchers of the sky is that they brought the president of Sudan Al basher as a leader who is against humanity by force the people of Darfur to follow his lead and not protesting against him. In addition, these human issues most likely happen in less developed counties like Rwanda where 200,000 people were killed in one month by a dictatorship in order to control the country, which could describe what realism stands for in term of win – lose game. ...

Americans spend billions of dollars a year on weight loss programs, not to mention the food that these programs require you to eat. With most of these diets, one cannot continue on with them because the diet just would not be healthy to do so. It would be amazing for a diet to let you eat things you eat now, but still lose weight; to be able to go out and enjoy dinner with family and friends without fearing a diet choice that has already been made. Well, Weight Watchers lets a person do all this and so much more. Weight Watchers lets a person eat anything that they normally would. When a person gets weighed at ...

Weight Watchers was designed so that people can take charge of their lives and their weight without having to suffer with horrible tasting food or having a constant rumbling stomach. Not only does it help people lose weight but it helps them be conscious about what they eat and how healthy something really is. Once they start to see pounds shedding off and their waist size shrinking, they will begin to eat better and change their life styles. This is not just a diet for when someone is over weight. This is a diet for a life time. It will continue to help a person achieve and maintain a healthy weight without having to cut out some of their favorite foods, fattening or not. Weight Watchers has activity points just like they do regular food point. This also comes with a nifty slider so that when someone goes to the gym or even goes for a walk, they can calculate how intense it was to how long they participated in this activity for and gain activity points which give people all the more motivation to get out there and be active. They can then turn around and trade these points in for food points. In conclusion, this is by far the best diet program out there.
