UNIT ONE: Hallelujah
Hallelujah, is a song that was written by Leonard Cohen in the year of 1984. Leonard Cohen is Canadian and an Atheist. The fact he is an Atheist is
kind of shocking giving the fact that there is a religious aspect in the beginning of the song. That is one of the reasons that I believe we studied this
song. The fact that there is a religious part of this song. We are a Catholic School so it does make sense. In addition, it is one of the most famous

In my opinion, that is the reason why we listened to this piece of music. To try and be exposed to a work that has a large supply of instruments and
a choir at the same time. From listening to it, they did a very good job of incorporating the choir with the music. The choir was also very
synchronized as well. They did not get too high or too low as a group. One of the differences with this piece of music is they incorporate different
types of music and the choir sings from the very beginning. One thing that was very enjoyable was how strong and powerful the choir sang at the end
of the piece. Once, again, the most difficult thing about listening to this piece was the lack of understanding any of the

Best Buy Fights Against Electronic Waste
Best Buy Fights Against Electronic Waste INTRODUCTION
Although Best Buy has not been in business as long as other established brands, the company is becoming a well–known name both within and outside
of the United States. This consumer electronics retailer is considered to be the largest specialty retailer within its sector throughout the U.S. with 21
percent of the market. With the bankruptcy of its main competitor Circuit City,Best Buy is geared to gain an increased market share and is looking for
new opportunities in countries like China and Mexico.
In addition to discounted products and high–quality goods, Best Buy has become known for its customer–centric approach and sustainable outreach.
After realizing the importance of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Best Buy operates businesses in several countries outside of the United States as well. The company operates both Best Buy retail stores and Future
Shop stores in Canada. In 2009, the company opened its first United Kingdom–based stores. The company started off by acquiring a 50 percent stake in
the UK based mobile phone company known as The Carphone Warehouse. Specifically, Best Buy Inc owns a portion of the company 's retail
division. Best Buy announced that it would open branded Best Buy stores in the U.K. in 2010. Best Buy also discussed the possibility of acquiring
Kesa Electricals and DSG International, both of which are United Kingdom rival retail electronics outlets. DSG International is responding to the rising
threat of Best Buy stores by undergoing an overhaul of its own retail outlets.
Today, Best Buy Inc is a leading provider of consumer electronics with a presence in U.S., Canadian, British, Chinese, and Mexican markets. In
March of 2009, the company became the online and brick and mortar primary provider for the eastern United States after its rival Circuit City closed
its doors. Unlike Best Buy, Circuit City failed to adapt to a fast–paced marketplace; instead, it chose to hire workers at lower prices and encountered
severe inventory backlog. The recession marked the end for Best Buy's nearly 60–year–old rival. With the ousting of its key rival, Best Buy has come

Elvis Presley Essay
Elvis Aaron Presley, in the humblest of circumstances, was born to Vernon and Gladys Presley in a two
–room house in Tupelo, Mississippi on January
8, 1935. His twin brother, Jessie Garon, was stillborn, leaving Elvis to grow up as an only child. He and his parents moved to Memphis, Tennessee in
1948, and Elvis graduated from Humes High School there in 1953.
Elvis? musical influences were the pop and country music of the time, the gospel music he heard in church and at the all–night gospel sings he

Research is also underway to document his record sales achievements in other countries. It is estimated that 40% of Elvis' total record sales have been
outside the United States.
Elvis Presley?s trophy room at Graceland is filled with gold and platinum records and awards of all kinds from around the world. Some of the countries
represented are: Norway, Yugoslavia, Japan, Australia, South Africa, England, Sweden, Germany, France, Canada, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
It is interesting to note that, except for a handful of movie soundtrack songs, Elvis did not record in other languages, and, except for five shows in
three Canadian cities in 1957, he did not perform in concert outside the United States. Still, his recordings and films enjoyed, and continue to enjoy,
popularity all over the globe, and he is known throughout the world by his first name.
Elvis has had no less than 149 songs to appear on Billboard?s Hot 100 Pop Chart in America. Of these, 114 were in the top forty, 40 were in the top
ten, and 18 went to number one. His number one singles spent a total of 80 weeks at number one. He has also had over 90 charted albums with nine
of them reaching number one. These figures are only for the pop charts, and only in America. He was also a leading artist in the American country,

Therefore, we should drink Pepsi that knows how to appreciate all audiences of all ages, regardless of their ages and genders. It is interesting to
here that Pepsi won the Taste test over Coke in the world wide. This is the good sign for the company to get good market share. More people voted
for Pepsi's taste than Coke's taste. Coke Company blames that all these taste tests meaningless and not the proper ones to decide the taste and the
greatness of the soft drinks. The production cost of Pepsi Company is less than Coke because Pepsi Company is using the Franchisees for the
production purpose and giving the remuneration for the production and maintaining the quality of the products by the regular checkups. In case of
Coke it has its own production units and producing the products in their own plants, this increases the production cost of the drinks of Coke, because
of this reason the profits of Coke reduced when compared to Pepsi. When we compare the commercial Ads of the two companies, Pepsi and Coke

Why Is Gord Downie Significant To Canadian History
Gord Downie was a proud Canadian, rock musician, writer, and activist. He was the lead singer and songwriter for the The Tragically Hip, from
Kingston Ontario, which he began in 1984 and proudly fronted in until his death in 2017. Gord Downie is significant to Canadian history because he
has raised awareness for Indigenous peoples, helped gain substantial amounts of donation for cancer research, and wrote songs about Canada and its
history.
To begin, Gord Downie is significant to Canadian history because he made Indigenous issues more prevalent to Canada's modern day society. To start,
Gord Downie helped bring awareness to Indigenous people by writing a book and an album about their struggles called 'The Secret Path Project'. The

"Their songs not only spotlighted Canadian stories, but did so in a unique, unconventional, often cryptic style"(3). For example, a song that displays
Canadian history that Gord Downie wrote and sang is "Wheat Kings". This song is about David Milgaard, a 16–year–old boy who was wrongly
convicted of the rape and murder of a woman. Milgaard stayed in jail for 22 years, and then finally was let out because he was proven not
guilty(6).This is significant because The Tragically Hip are perceived as a Canada loving band, and though they are, they still write and sing about
controversial issues and have critiqued Canada when our nation does wrong. Another song that was written about Canadian history is "Fifty–Mission
Cap". This song was written about Bill Barilko, a Toronto Maple leaf player who had scored the winning goal for Toronto's first Stanley Cup.
Barilko, later on that year went on a fishing trip, but his plane crashed on the way home. He was found dead 11 years after(9). The song talks about
important moments in Canadian sports history, which touches the hearts and is relevant to the large population of people who are passionate about
hockey. To continue, Gord Downie wrote a song called "Three pistols". This song was written about Tom Thomson, a Canadian painter who the founder
of the famous Canadian painting group called "The Group Of Seven." Thomson was out at Algonquin Park on Canoe Lake, painting and canoeing and
was later found dead due to drowning. From then on, there have been many conspiracy theories about his death(8). This song is relevant to Canadians
that are passionate about art and art history because there are so few songs that are about art, not to mention Canadian art. Overall, Gord Downie told
Canadian history throughout his music, and touched on contrasting Canadian topics, solidifying his significance to

managers a great deal of flexibility in determining their capital and governance structure, relying on the market for capital to create competition that
will allow shareholders to "choose" the one they think is best. Individual ownership evolved over time into a variety of models of collective enterprise.
In Darwinian terms, the corporate model has prevailed as the legal structure of choice in modern commerce because

The beginnings and ends of what we choose to call centuries are almost invariably years of little significance. But there is little agreement over when
the twentieth century c.e. arrived, and there were several points both before the year 2000 (the collapse of the Soviet Union, the reunification of
Germany, the surge of globalization from the mid–1990s) and afterward (9/11, or the global recession of 2008) when one could quite plausibly argue
that a new era had begun. A compelling case can be made for viewing the decades of the global scramble for colonies after 1870 as a predictable
culmination of the long nineteenth century, which was ushered in by the industrial and political revolutions of the late 1700s. But at the same time,
without serious attention to the processes and misguided policies that led to decades of agrarian and industrial depression from the late 1860s to the
1890s, as well as the social tensions and political rivalries that generated and were in turn fed by imperialist expansionism, one cannot begin to
comprehend the causes and consequences of the Great War that began in 1914. That conflict determined the contours of the twentieth century in
myriad ways. On the one hand, the war set in motion transformative processes that were clearly major departures from those that defined the
nineteenth–century world order. On the other, it perversely unleashed forces

Although Canada and the United States share the same continent, they are divided by their unique ideas and views. After WWI ,Canada broke its ties
with Britain and new independent nation was born with a unique culture. This new culture developed through the Canadian citizens. As a Canadian
citizen, Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie helped achieve autonomy from Britain and solidify national unity at home. Canadian inventor
,Fredrick Banting ,maintained his culture as Canadian and contributed to the world through his invention of insulin. Many artists, authors, actors ,

Finally ,Canada achieved its goals as an independent and unique culture. Canadian and American cultural views were different which was proved
because one is multicultural and the other is not. Canada was known as "mosaic" which means immigrants from any ethnic group were accepted here
and were allowed to practice their religion. Therefore, they have a double identity ,meaning they are their ethnic group before a Canadian citizen as in
Japanese–Canadian, Asian Canadian and so on . Whereas ,American culture was known as the "melting pot ", where they accept other cultures
however they encouraged their citizens to give up their original culture ( Wells ,10 and 11 ). Canadian's usually describe themselves as "NOT
AMERICAN"(Wells,35) . Many Americans view Canada as a positive nation and as a better environment to live in then the United States . A legal
sectary from Gastonia ,North Carolina said "Canada's such a terrific place, I'd move there tomorrow if I could" (Wells, 35). This proves that Americans
want to come to Canada since it is a safer environment due to it's unique culture. Canadians are recognized as more modest, less aggressive and more

Women Have Shaped Canadian History
Women have shaped Canadian History The proliferation of Canadian women's movements, notably their redefining role in society, has had a profound
propitious impact on Canada's identity in the twentieth century. The contribution of Canadian women in the cultural life (sports, the arts and dance),
the political impact from the leadership role of a female perspective (Nellie McClung) and women's economic empowerment all contribute to the
shape of Canadian history. Our current Canadian national identity has been shaped and developed by events from our past by our determination,
doing the "impossible", staying dedicated and true. Also by doing what others thought we couldn 't, proving people wrong and being dedicated to our
plans and outlines (Vimy Ridge). By gaining more independence, freedom, equality, rights and responsibilities . By being compassionate, sticking to
your words and seeking for new rights (Pierre Trudeau). Even though there are so many past events that have shaped and developed our Canadian
national identity, negative things have also done the same but in a negative way. We Canadians are proud of our accomplishments and achievements.

The Who. The Rolling Stones made it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and are still touring after about fifty years from coming to America during
the British invasion.
People wonder how the Rolling Stones came to be. The Rolling Stones former members included Bill Wyman playing the bass, Brian Jones playing
guitar as well as Mick Taylor. The current members of the Rolling Stones are Kieth Richard playing the guitar, and singing. Mick Jagger, and Ron
wood singing also, Charlie Watts plays the drums. In 1993, after the Steel Wheels/ Urban Jungle tour, Bill decided it was time for him to retire
from the group, he was tired of touring (Loss, 2004). Brian Jones stepped down from his position of the Rolling Stones leader as Mick Jagger had
taken over. Since then, the band got their first U.S. hit in 1964 with a cover for Not Fade Away by Buddy Holly (Norman, 1998). Select critics
followed the British invasion to change the favorite genre of music for American teens. The British Invasion was a slang term to express the generation

A Brief History of the Development of Advertising

ASSIGNMENT – A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADVERTISING
DEFINITION – Advertising is a process, not a medium in its own right, although it uses different media forms to communicate. Advertising, in its
simplest form, is the way in which the vendor or manufacturer of a product communicates with consumers via a medium, or many different media.
HISTORY
Egyptians used papyrus to make sales messages and wall posters. Commercial messages and political campaign displays have been found in the ruins
of Pompeii and ancient Arabia. Lost and found advertising on papyrus was common in Ancient Greece and Ancient... Show more content on

In fact, the first American advertising to use a sexual sell was created by a woman – for a soap product. Although tame by today's standards, the
advertisement featured a couple with the message "The skin you love to touch".
Advertisements of hotels in Pichilemu, Chile from 1935.
In the early 1920s, the first radio stations were established by radio equipment manufacturers and retailers who offered programs in order to sell more
radios to consumers. As time passed, many non–profit organizations followed suit in setting up their own radio stations, and included: schools, clubs
and civic groups.When the practice of sponsoring programs was popularized, each individual radio program was usually sponsored by a single
business in exchange for a brief mention of the business' name at the beginning and end of the sponsored shows. However, radio station owners soon
realised they could earn more money by selling sponsorship rights in small time allocations to multiple businesses throughout their radio station's
broadcasts, rather than selling the sponsorship rights to single businesses per show.
This practice was carried over to commercial television in the late 1940s and early 1950s. A fierce battle was fought between those seeking to
commercialize the radio and people who argued that the radio spectrum should be considered a part of the commons – to be used only
non–commercially and for the public good. The United Kingdom pursued a public funding model

What Is The Culture Of America's Pastime
The Culture of America's Pastime What is culture? Culture is what makes us different. No one culture is like another. Culture can be what religion you

others. One thing that doesn't matter in culture is what race you are, or what color your skin is. Culture bring us together as a race and diversifies us
as individuals. Sports culture is very different. In sports today, it doesn't matter what race you are, what religion you are, or what size or shape you

"People think that baseball is a boring sport to watch" (Miller). The games are very long, lasting an average of three hours. The game can also go into
extra innings which can add more than an hour. The longest game lasted 8 hours and 25 minutes and went 33 innings in 1984. The score was only 4–3
(MLB.com). Baseball can be boring at some times, there will always be lulls in between pitches and innings. Baseball also have expensive tickets.
The MLB average is $31 per ticket. An average family of four would have to pay more than $120 just to watch the game. The Boston Red Sox
average price is more than $50 (Statista.com). Many people cannot afford to go to a game. Another thing that makes it less interesting is that the
scores are low. Many MLB games I have watched usually don't having scores that exceed 5 runs. When a team scores more runs and gets more
hits, the game is more exciting and intense. When teams are only getting four or five hits the entire game and scoring 2 runs, it can slow the game
down and make it more boring. As Sam Miller said in his article, "What are they even trying to do in baseball, you know? What's the metaphor?" In
football, it's like war, tackle each other before they get to the end zone. Baseball, on the other hand, is more like cops and robbers, you have to

because Canada believes in diversity and the representation of all, culturally. I learned that Italian–Canadians actually helped to physically build

The Youth Oriented Hip Hop Movement
According to Erikson (1968, referenced by Jacobson, 2009), "...in the social jungle of human existence there is no feeling of being alive without a sense
of identity." It is well understood that, like all individuals, youths especially have a need to belong to a social group. Many youth participate in
subculture resistance, apparent through demonstrating language, expression, and fashion that are often opposing parental and authority figures, and
the dominant culture. People who have similar characteristics or similar experiences are, according to Jacobson (2009, p. 11), more likely to "...unite in
opposition to the dominant culture". A music genre that distinctly demonstrates such is the hip–hop movement. The youth–oriented hip–hop movement
finds its significance in the lives of African–American youths in urban working class settings and their resistance to authority, as well as allowing them
to voice their identity and address common issues concerning race, gang activity, drugs, violence, and sex. While hip–hop has been suggested to have
negative impacts on youths in contemporary society, it is known by most to simply be a reflection of the reality. Hip–hop, as an artistic outlet,
challenges the dominant culture whereby teens living in urban areas are frequently subjected to violence and harmful activity, and therefore speaks
against the structural oppression within society. Emerging out of the South Bronx in the 1970s, hip–hop culture and rap music became a musical

Analysis of the Music Industry
Music may be defined romantically as `the food of love ' (Shakespeare) or more prosaically as `sound with particular characteristics ' (Wikipedia), but
it is undeniably a `vibrant artform ' (Arts Council England) and one which touches more people, in more ways, than any other art form.
In commercial terms, music certainly generates a higher market value than the other arts, although a comprehensive market size for music in all its
manifestations is impossible to calculate. Key Note has put a value of ВЈ3.03bn on consumer spending on music in 2005, derived from three sectors:
recorded music (which accounts for the bulk of the market), live music and musical instruments. However, data for other related markets are included,

Each chapter of the report starts with more detailed definitions and coverage.
For coverage of recorded music, Key Note is grateful to the statistics and commentary provided by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), detailed
later in this chapter under Key Trade Associations. For other sectors, an important component of the report is the field research into the attitudes and
buying habits of UK consumers with regard to music, conducted for Key Note by NEMS Market Research specifically for this report.
Report Background
This is the first edition of a Market Review of the Music Industry published by Key Note. Although coverage is targeted mainly at the UK market, the
global aspects of the music industry are given full acknowledgment. In particular, it is recorded music – by far the largest market by value – that has
evolved a global structure. Since 2004, it has featured just four `majors ' owning dozens of famous labels and holding recording contracts (or back
catalogues) for the vast majority of the world 's top–selling recording artists.
The `big four ' major groups, including the UK 's own `home–grown ' giant, EMI Group PLC, also own rights to publish and to license the majority of
successful songs, theme music, etc. These rights are increasingly important as the market moves towards a more fluid, ICT (information and

they started incorporating studio culture of Hollywood by following vertical integration. Leaving behind the prevailing system of horizontal integration

I grew up in Jamaica at a time when Rastas were still regarded as useless, lazy, half–insane, ganja–smoking illiterates who were of no value to society.
Teachers, students, office workers, and anyone of social importance could not grow locks, and families would go into mourning when their sons
would start sprouting them. I heard the term "black heart man" used again and again as a means of expressing fear or ridicule of the Rastafarian. And
this was in the early 1970s–after Bob Marley's emergence as an international viii FOREWORD star, after Selassie's arrival in Jamaica, and after so
much had been written about the importance of Rastafarianism. The problem was that Rasta was counter to the strong Christian structure that
dominated and continues to dominate Jamaican life and was seen п¬Ѓrst as heretical and misguided before its powerful social and political ideas were
fully appreciated. Most important, however, was the Rastafarian insistence that Africa was the promised land and that Jamaicans should look to Africa
for their model of value rather than to Europe, which was seen as foolish and a painful reminder of slavery and oppression. Rasta was an offense to

Racism Is A Relic Of The Past
In recent years the #blacklivesmatter movement has been effective in bringing attention to anti–black racism in America; however, the commonly held
understanding of racism, in particular how it is executed and its consequenses on the black community, has not evolved much from the past. News
outlets and social media seems to present a thorough definition of racism and its consequences; racism is a white police officer beating or shooting a
black teen, a white presidential candidate spewing racial slurs during his campaign or perhaps it looks like a white cooking show TV host who admits
to having used the n–word. Media is prepared to bring up conspicuous prejudice and discrimination every time it occurs; perpetuating the thought that
generally racism is a relic of the past. However, contemporary manifestations of racism and its effects are much more complex and deep than the
depiction of racism in media suggests. Albeit race relations have amended significantly since the last century, racism persists as a subtle indoctrination
even within the black community. "The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice" is a saying commonly used within the African–American community
reflecting these indoctrinations. Although the origin of the phrase is unclear, the saying can be traced back to the novel The Blacker The Berry: A
novel of negro Life written by Wallace Thurman in 1929. Thurman was one of the first to use the saying as a way to straightforwardly speak on the

What will be the effect of the rapid gyrations in markets that emphasize the difficulties that accounting practices face in determining true performance
costs and that forecasting programs confront in establishing the economic determinants of corporate planning? In addition to these challenges, many
analytical and strategic evaluation approaches that are used in an attempt to identify and project how well a company is performing have been
overwhelmed by the frequency and magnitude of these economic groundswells. In today's competitive climate, where the changes outside a business
exceed the productive changes within a business, a company's future viability is clearly under enormous stress. To maintain business growth and a
sustained economy, it is essential for managers to understand and find solutions for these and other fundamental wide–ranging issues. The bursting of
the high–tech bubble both in many start–up companies and in major segments of established firms dissipated many entrepreneurial efforts and the large

A Case Study : Joni Mitchell
A Case of You
Born on November 7th, 1943, in Fort Macleod, Canada, Joni Mitchell was quick to success. "After teaching herself how to play the guitar, she went
off to art college and quickly emerged as one of the leading folk performers of the late 1960s and '70s." ("Joni Mitchell"). Some of her most notable
songs include "Big Yellow Taxi
", "Both Sides Now", and "A Case of You". "A Case of You" is arguably her most successfulsong. It was written in 1970
and later released on her album, Blue, in 1971. It has been covered by a multitude of artists and given her outrageous success in this music industry.
She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997, and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2007. She released her nineteenth, and
final studio album, Shine, in 2007 which was her first album in nearly a decade. Since then, she has been battling a long line of ongoing heath issues.
She contracted polio at the age of nine and has sought treatment for Morgellons disease. Additionally, in 2015 she suffered from an aneurysm, but has
since then made a full recovery and is said to be living comfortably on her own. What seems to separate Joni Mitchell from other folk artists of her
time is her use of instrumentals. Her use of specific instruments is what allows her songs to be very vocally driven, as the instrumentals tend to be
very soft. For example, in "A Case of You", she used an Appalachian Dulcimer as the forefront instrument. On the recorded version of this

In fact, when the capital of French Louisiana was moved from Mobile, Alabama to New Orleans, the French colonial government cited New Orleans'
inland location as one of the reasons for the move, as it would be less vulnerable to hurricanes.[citation needed] After the Flood Control Act of 1965,
the United States Army Corps of Engineers built floodwalls and man–made levees around a much larger geographic footprint that included previous
marshland and swamp. Whether or not this human interference has caused subsidence is a topic of debate. A study by an associate professor at
Tulane University claims: Large portions of Orleans, St. Bernard, and Jefferson parishes are currently below sea level– and continue to sink. New
Orleans is built on thousands of feet of soft sand, silt, and clay. Subsidence, or settling of the ground surface, occurs naturally due to the consolidation
and oxidation of organic soils (called "marsh" in New Orleans) and local groundwater pumping. In the past, flooding and deposition of sediments from
the Mississippi River counterbalanced the natural subsidence, leaving southeast Louisiana at or above sea level. However, due to major flood control
structures being built upstream on the Mississippi River and levees being built around New Orleans, fresh layers of sediment are not replenishing the
ground lost by subsidence.[47] Cityscape The Central Business

Piano Failure
Every Tuesday afternoon after preschool my mother took my brother, my sister, and me to the home of a kind woman. There, my mother failed to

I heard similar sounds after my father returned from work, but those tones instead formed rich melodies. I knew that the key to skillfully producing the

It was as if my middle–school self was an unhappy worker who devoted his capacities to fortune and fame instead of unmaterialistic authenticity.
While I may have had sporadic moments of satisfaction, my happiness was not sustainable. Until I experienced true failure by not even passing the
screening round for the junior division Renee B. Fisher Competition in eighth grade (a piano competition held in New Haven, CT) did I begin
questioning my intentions on piano. Should I even seriously pursue something at which I am not the best? Of course, I acted unperturbed by this
rejection and left myself alone to discover that I must forsake my "musical materialism" and instead appreciate the intangible dimensions of music.
Entering high school, I experimented with original melodies and chord progressions until I attained a conceptual grasp of music theory, which
enabled me to fathom the skill and insight of revolutionarily creative composers from Bach to Gershwin as well as begin composing myself. A
freeing abundance of pleasure emerged from my ability to improvise; I could create lush melodies or enhance those I already know at my leisure.
Improvisation now relieves stress, distracts me from monotonous routines, and even allows me to orchestrate my pieces for a written channel of my

  • 4. Hallelujah George Guay Development of Western Civilization 3/21/18 Listening Journal 1 UNIT ONE: Hallelujah Hallelujah, is a song that was written by Leonard Cohen in the year of 1984. Leonard Cohen is Canadian and an Atheist. The fact he is an Atheist is kind of shocking giving the fact that there is a religious aspect in the beginning of the song. That is one of the reasons that I believe we studied this song. The fact that there is a religious part of this song. We are a Catholic School so it does make sense. In addition, it is one of the most famous songs ever written. So this song has a strong musical and religious aspect to it. Also, it is interesting ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In my opinion, that is the reason why we listened to this piece of music. To try and be exposed to a work that has a large supply of instruments and a choir at the same time. From listening to it, they did a very good job of incorporating the choir with the music. The choir was also very synchronized as well. They did not get too high or too low as a group. One of the differences with this piece of music is they incorporate different types of music and the choir sings from the very beginning. One thing that was very enjoyable was how strong and powerful the choir sang at the end of the piece. Once, again, the most difficult thing about listening to this piece was the lack of understanding any of the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Best Buy Fights Against Electronic Waste Best Buy Fights Against Electronic Waste INTRODUCTION Although Best Buy has not been in business as long as other established brands, the company is becoming a well–known name both within and outside of the United States. This consumer electronics retailer is considered to be the largest specialty retailer within its sector throughout the U.S. with 21 percent of the market. With the bankruptcy of its main competitor Circuit City,Best Buy is geared to gain an increased market share and is looking for new opportunities in countries like China and Mexico. In addition to discounted products and high–quality goods, Best Buy has become known for its customer–centric approach and sustainable outreach. After realizing the importance of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Best Buy operates businesses in several countries outside of the United States as well. The company operates both Best Buy retail stores and Future Shop stores in Canada. In 2009, the company opened its first United Kingdom–based stores. The company started off by acquiring a 50 percent stake in the UK based mobile phone company known as The Carphone Warehouse. Specifically, Best Buy Inc owns a portion of the company 's retail division. Best Buy announced that it would open branded Best Buy stores in the U.K. in 2010. Best Buy also discussed the possibility of acquiring Kesa Electricals and DSG International, both of which are United Kingdom rival retail electronics outlets. DSG International is responding to the rising threat of Best Buy stores by undergoing an overhaul of its own retail outlets. Today, Best Buy Inc is a leading provider of consumer electronics with a presence in U.S., Canadian, British, Chinese, and Mexican markets. In March of 2009, the company became the online and brick and mortar primary provider for the eastern United States after its rival Circuit City closed its doors. Unlike Best Buy, Circuit City failed to adapt to a fast–paced marketplace; instead, it chose to hire workers at lower prices and encountered severe inventory backlog. The recession marked the end for Best Buy's nearly 60–year–old rival. With the ousting of its key rival, Best Buy has come to dominate the marketplace within the consumer electronics ...

It is interesting to here that Pepsi won the Taste test over Coke in the world wide. This is the good sign for the company to get good market share. More people voted for Pepsi's taste than Coke's taste. Coke Company blames that all these taste tests meaningless and not the proper ones to decide the taste and the greatness of the soft drinks. The production cost of Pepsi Company is less than Coke because Pepsi Company is using the Franchisees for the production purpose and giving the remuneration for the production and maintaining the quality of the products by the regular checkups. In case of Coke it has its own production units and producing the products in their own plants, this increases the production cost of the drinks of Coke, because of this reason the profits of Coke reduced when compared to Pepsi.

  • 11. Why Is Gord Downie Significant To Canadian History Gord Downie was a proud Canadian, rock musician, writer, and activist. He was the lead singer and songwriter for the The Tragically Hip, from Kingston Ontario, which he began in 1984 and proudly fronted in until his death in 2017. Gord Downie is significant to Canadian history because he has raised awareness for Indigenous peoples, helped gain substantial amounts of donation for cancer research, and wrote songs about Canada and its history. To begin, Gord Downie is significant to Canadian history because he made Indigenous issues more prevalent to Canada's modern day society. To start, Gord Downie helped bring awareness to Indigenous people by writing a book and an album about their struggles called 'The Secret Path Project'. The Secret Path ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... "Their songs not only spotlighted Canadian stories, but did so in a unique, unconventional, often cryptic style"(3). For example, a song that displays Canadian history that Gord Downie wrote and sang is "Wheat Kings". This song is about David Milgaard, a 16–year–old boy who was wrongly convicted of the rape and murder of a woman. Milgaard stayed in jail for 22 years, and then finally was let out because he was proven not guilty(6).This is significant because The Tragically Hip are perceived as a Canada loving band, and though they are, they still write and sing about controversial issues and have critiqued Canada when our nation does wrong. Another song that was written about Canadian history is "Fifty–Mission Cap". This song was written about Bill Barilko, a Toronto Maple leaf player who had scored the winning goal for Toronto's first Stanley Cup. Barilko, later on that year went on a fishing trip, but his plane crashed on the way home. He was found dead 11 years after(9). The song talks about important moments in Canadian sports history, which touches the hearts and is relevant to the large population of people who are passionate about hockey. To continue, Gord Downie wrote a song called "Three pistols". This song was written about Tom Thomson, a Canadian painter who the founder of the famous Canadian painting group called "The Group Of Seven." Thomson was out at Algonquin Park on Canoe Lake, painting and canoeing and was later found dead due to drowning. From then on, there have been many conspiracy theories about his death(8). This song is relevant to Canadians that are passionate about art and art history because there are so few songs that are about art, not to mention Canadian art. Overall, Gord Downie told Canadian history throughout his music, and touched on contrasting Canadian topics, solidifying his significance to ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The American Corporation The Essential Elements of the Corporate Structure The corporation is a complex set of contracts, and corporate law enables the participants to select the optimal arrangement for the many different sets of risks and opportunities that are available in a large economy. No one set of terms will be best for all; hence the "enabling" structure of corporate law. The law gives corporate managers a great deal of flexibility in determining their capital and governance structure, relying on the market for capital to create competition that will allow shareholders to "choose" the one they think is best.

The beginnings and ends of what we choose to call centuries are almost invariably years of little significance. But there is little agreement over when the twentieth century c.e. arrived, and there were several points both before the year 2000 (the collapse of the Soviet Union, the reunification of Germany, the surge of globalization from the mid–1990s) and afterward (9/11, or the global recession of 2008) when one could quite plausibly argue that a new era had begun. A compelling case can be made for viewing the decades of the global scramble for colonies after 1870 as a predictable culmination of the long nineteenth century, which was ushered in by the industrial and political revolutions of the late 1700s. But at the same time, without serious attention to the processes and misguided policies that led to decades of agrarian and industrial depression from the late 1860s to the 1890s, as well as the social tensions and political rivalries that generated and were in turn fed by imperialist expansionism, one cannot begin to comprehend the causes and consequences of the Great War that began in 1914. That conflict determined the contours of the twentieth century in myriad ways. On the one hand, the war set in motion transformative processes that were clearly major departures from those that defined the nineteenth–century world order.

In the early 1920s, the first radio stations were established by radio equipment manufacturers and retailers who offered programs in order to sell more radios to consumers. As time passed, many non–profit organizations followed suit in setting up their own radio stations, and included: schools, clubs and civic groups.When the practice of sponsoring programs was popularized, each individual radio program was usually sponsored by a single business in exchange for a brief mention of the business' name at the beginning and end of the sponsored shows. However, radio station owners soon realised they could earn more money by selling sponsorship rights in small time allocations to multiple businesses throughout their radio station's broadcasts, rather than selling the sponsorship rights to single businesses per show. This practice was carried over to commercial television in the late 1940s and early 1950s. A fierce battle was fought between those seeking to commercialize the radio and people who argued that the radio spectrum should be considered a part of the commons – to be used only non–commercially and for the public good.

The longest game lasted 8 hours and 25 minutes and went 33 innings in 1984. The score was only 4–3 (MLB.com). Baseball can be boring at some times, there will always be lulls in between pitches and innings. Baseball also have expensive tickets. The MLB average is $31 per ticket. An average family of four would have to pay more than $120 just to watch the game. The Boston Red Sox average price is more than $50 (Statista.com). Many people cannot afford to go to a game. Another thing that makes it less interesting is that the scores are low. Many MLB games I have watched usually don't having scores that exceed 5 runs. When a team scores more runs and gets more hits, the game is more exciting and intense. When teams are only getting four or five hits the entire game and scoring 2 runs, it can slow the game down and make it more boring.

  • 26. The Youth Oriented Hip Hop Movement According to Erikson (1968, referenced by Jacobson, 2009), "...in the social jungle of human existence there is no feeling of being alive without a sense of identity." It is well understood that, like all individuals, youths especially have a need to belong to a social group. Many youth participate in subculture resistance, apparent through demonstrating language, expression, and fashion that are often opposing parental and authority figures, and the dominant culture. People who have similar characteristics or similar experiences are, according to Jacobson (2009, p. 11), more likely to "...unite in opposition to the dominant culture". A music genre that distinctly demonstrates such is the hip–hop movement. The youth–oriented hip–hop movement finds its significance in the lives of African–American youths in urban working class settings and their resistance to authority, as well as allowing them to voice their identity and address common issues concerning race, gang activity, drugs, violence, and sex. While hip–hop has been suggested to have negative impacts on youths in contemporary society, it is known by most to simply be a reflection of the reality. Hip–hop, as an artistic outlet, challenges the dominant culture whereby teens living in urban areas are frequently subjected to violence and harmful activity, and therefore speaks against the structural oppression within society.

  • 31. Racism Is A Relic Of The Past In recent years the #blacklivesmatter movement has been effective in bringing attention to anti–black racism in America; however, the commonly held understanding of racism, in particular how it is executed and its consequenses on the black community, has not evolved much from the past. News outlets and social media seems to present a thorough definition of racism and its consequences; racism is a white police officer beating or shooting a black teen, a white presidential candidate spewing racial slurs during his campaign or perhaps it looks like a white cooking show TV host who admits to having used the n–word. Media is prepared to bring up conspicuous prejudice and discrimination every time it occurs; perpetuating the thought that generally racism is a relic of the past. However, contemporary manifestations of racism and its effects are much more complex and deep than the depiction of racism in media suggests. Albeit race relations have amended significantly since the last century, racism persists as a subtle indoctrination even within the black community. "The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice" is a saying commonly used within the African–American community reflecting these indoctrinations.

She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997, and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2007. She released her nineteenth, and final studio album, Shine, in 2007 which was her first album in nearly a decade. Since then, she has been battling a long line of ongoing heath issues. She contracted polio at the age of nine and has sought treatment for Morgellons disease. Additionally, in 2015 she suffered from an aneurysm, but has since then made a full recovery and is said to be living comfortably on her own. What seems to separate Joni Mitchell from other folk artists of her time is her use of instrumentals. Her use of specific instruments is what allows her songs to be very vocally driven, as the instrumentals tend to be very soft. For example, in "A Case of You", she used an Appalachian Dulcimer as the forefront instrument. On the recorded version of this ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

In fact, when the capital of French Louisiana was moved from Mobile, Alabama to New Orleans, the French colonial government cited New Orleans' inland location as one of the reasons for the move, as it would be less vulnerable to hurricanes.[citation needed] After the Flood Control Act of 1965, the United States Army Corps of Engineers built floodwalls and man–made levees around a much larger geographic footprint that included previous marshland and swamp. Whether or not this human interference has caused subsidence is a topic of debate. A study by an associate professor at Tulane University claims: Large portions of Orleans, St. Bernard, and Jefferson parishes are currently below sea level– and continue to sink. New Orleans is built on thousands of feet of soft sand, silt, and clay. Subsidence, or settling of the ground surface, occurs naturally due to the consolidation and oxidation of organic soils (called "marsh" in New Orleans) and local groundwater pumping. In the past, flooding and deposition of sediments from the Mississippi River counterbalanced the natural subsidence, leaving southeast Louisiana at or above sea level. However, due to major flood control structures being built upstream on the Mississippi River and levees being built around New Orleans, fresh layers of sediment are not replenishing the ground lost by subsidence.[47] Cityscape The Central Business ...

Compare the estimated potential revenues from all sources (box office, promotional revenues, and sponsorships) for the two proposals. If appropriate, provide a range (pessimistic, most likely, optimistic) for each. b. Compare the estimated costs (Installation, Operations, Fixed and administrative, and any extraordinary expenditures associated with either proposal). For this question, you may assume that Cirque will only consider a show that is already in Europe, and thus would not involve an international transfer. c. Estimate the contribution to profit for the two proposals. Some variability in assessments of the financial aspects of this case seems inevitable.

  • 38. Piano Failure Every Tuesday afternoon after preschool my mother took my brother, my sister, and me to the home of a kind woman. There, my mother failed to distract me with crosswords and coloring books; instead, the nearby dissonances and unsteady rhythms enticed my innocent mind. Each night at home, I heard similar sounds after my father returned from work, but those tones instead formed rich melodies. I knew that the key to skillfully producing the impassioned music which I listened to every night lay in what I witnessed my older siblings do every Tuesday: take piano lessons. I begged my mother to allow me to study under the kind woman, and she reluctantly agreed despite her worries about my short attention span. I was three years old. After eight years, ...

While I may have had sporadic moments of satisfaction, my happiness was not sustainable. Until I experienced true failure by not even passing the screening round for the junior division Renee B. Fisher Competition in eighth grade (a piano competition held in New Haven, CT) did I begin questioning my intentions on piano. Should I even seriously pursue something at which I am not the best? Of course, I acted unperturbed by this rejection and left myself alone to discover that I must forsake my "musical materialism" and instead appreciate the intangible dimensions of music. Entering high school, I experimented with original melodies and chord progressions until I attained a conceptual grasp of music theory, which enabled me to fathom the skill and insight of revolutionarily creative composers from Bach to Gershwin as well as begin composing myself. A freeing abundance of pleasure emerged from my ability to improvise; I could create lush melodies or enhance those I already know at my leisure. Improvisation now relieves stress, distracts me from monotonous routines, and even allows me to orchestrate my pieces for a written channel of my emotion. A new independence evinced from my incorporeal understanding of music, and with this new understanding of the intangible aspects of music, I placed fourth in the senior division of the same competition I had failed three years ...
