Men's Health Vs. Glamour
Number of words: 1066 - Number of pages: 4.... a section that is dedicated to jobs called "Jobs & Money". I thought it did a good job on giving advice, but the way they wrote the article seemed to be elementary. As in Men's Health, they treated the reader as a professional and they have some knowledge about jobs. Glamour also was able to put in a beauty tip on what type of makeup to use and what is the current fashion. Which I thought that tip should have been an another article separate from "Jobs & Money."
Both magazines covered a range of health issues. Men’s Health and Glamour have common ground when .....

Psychological Stress
Number of words: 1817 - Number of pages: 7.... attainment of certain goals or needs (Corey 207). All of the little things that frustrate us include waiting in lines or
traffic, sense of failure or inadequacies, bad relationships, deaths, and loneliness. Self-defeating thoughts are a
way in which we almost deliberately block attainment of our needs. If in our heads, we have this preconceived
