A crisis (plural: crises) (from the Greek κρίσις) may occur on a personal or societal level. It may be a traumatic or stressful change in a person's life, or an unstable and dangerous social situation, in political, social, economic, military affairs, or a large-scale environmental event, especially one involving an impending abrupt change. More loosely, it is a term meaning 'a testing time' or 'emergency event'.

What crisis do you think was rescued by good Public Relations?
Q. I am writing a speech on PR, and have asked this question twice, but have not had answers that pertain to my speech. So, I am trying to be a bit more specific here. I would like help thinking of a time when PR absolutely saved a company that was going through a crisis. Anything in the last 10 years will do. Something people will remember, even if they are not involved in PR. This is for a conference, and I want to spruce this speech up as best as possible. Thanks!

A. The Mattel toy China recall. The company ended up not looking as bad as it should.

What does mortgage crisis mean for first time buyers?
Q. Given the following assumptions: first time buyer, able to make 20% down payment, excellent credit, flexible on timing, already pre-approved, silicon valley area, intends to live in 2 bedroom condo for at least 5 years. How should the crisis affect decisions, particularly concerning timing? Should I wait a few months, or get it over with? Will housing prices drop somewhat? Will I get hit with a higher interest rate for waiting?

A. Don't wait a few months. Smart buyers always love to buy on bad news. You will likely find a few sellers now that panic and will agree to a lower price than they will in a two or three weeks when better news comes out. In the short term, in a week or three the rates may drop, but in six months time they may be higher. (most of the year 2000, 30 year fixed rates were above 8%- do you want to wait and see if it goes there again?)

What is the correct operating procedure for a hostage crisis?
Q. I ask because during the Gaza crisis Israel repeatedly said that Hamas were using the general population as hostages...yet it appears that Israeli forces did not distinguish between so-called hostages and Hamas militants? Is it acceptable to kill the hostages to take out the hostage takers? I think not. Surely that is a failure.

A. I am not to even trying to answer the middle east problem but this situation is more akin to guerrilla warfare. Look up the definition of hostage crisis and you will see the difference. If you can find an answer to their problem I see a Nobel Peace Prize in your future. 50+ years of fighting in Gaza not to mention the thousands of years between religious sects...
