Part 1 Track 1 is music, track 3 is noise, track 4 is music, track 7 is noise, while track 6 is music. Track 4 is ranked as position 1 of the tracks I would like to listen to again, followed by tracks 1, 6, 7, and 3, in that order. Track 1 was ranked as music because it fulfills four of the propositions of music. Sound is not only produced but is organized uniquely by the individual. Notably, the singer intended to recite religious verses. Track 3 was ranked as noise because only sound was produced. Besides, there was no harmonic organization even though humans produced it. The intention is hardly known since the pitch was intolerant to hear. Track 4 is music because of a pattern of sounds produced from the beginning to the end. The sound was organized in a rhythmic manner that projected towards a cultural practice of the community. It showed their perception of this happening around them. Track 7 was ranked as noise since the sound was intolerable. There was hardly any organization of…

Unions’ goals and objectives Unions’ goals and objectives – Unions are formed by a group of people with similar interests.  The main objectives behind the formation of unions are fighting for the rights of its members. Unions are good, especially in an industry where employees are not protected against unfair treatment by their superiors. Through unions, employees demand higher wages and a good working environment. My uncle worked for an automotive company and was a union member comprised of all company members working within the production sector. At one point, he hurt his leg and had to be hospitalized. He stayed away from work for half a month. The union organized for his treatment bills and took care of his family during the period. The union also ensured that my uncle received his salary in full and in time. I believe this would not have happened if he was not a member of that union. Comparative worth is based on the idea that equal qualifications and experience should be rewarded equally.  I agree with this concept since unequal payment for…

Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank Explains the Importance of Teamwork The Under Armour establisher and Chief executive Kevin Plank calls his company workers as teammates. This is not something new since the company’s establishment was entrenched on Plank’s time as a member of the University of Maryland football team. The initial idea of what would develop to be one of the leading sports apparel brands in the world came in the team’s changing room. While in the locker room Plank noticed how the cotton undergarments which were worn by the players soaked with sweat. They took time to dry; therefore changing them was burdensome. Upon graduation, Kevin Plank started assembling the team that would help him in his startup. He began his operations from his grandmother’s basement before acquiring a store. The initial days of Under Armour included casual cooperation with some of the Plank’s ex-teammates. They tried the samples and eventually embarked on verbal marketing about the groundbreaking products. Under Armour was just a changing room story before developing to become a national brand. The entire idea of teamwork…

Student’s Name: Professor Name: Course Name: Department: Date: Has The United States Supreme Court Become Too Politicized. The Supreme court has become politicized; noticed whenever a seat opens upon the United states supreme court. The political battle over the next justice is very fierce. And to a lot of people, that is a huge problem. Many critics have called the court’s confirmation process broken due to the increased politicization of an institution meant to stand apart from the political theatre in theory. United States supreme court is the highest federal court of the states. The court may decide cases have over stones but don’t have the power to determine non-justiciable political questions and enforcement arm. Since the supreme court has the final appellate jurisdiction in all cases arising under the constitution, it has the ultimate authority to decide whether statutes are consistent with the body. To some extent, the supreme court justices are appointed based on ideology and politics instead of qualifications and experience. National survey data shows that a large segment of the court’s public perceives the court in…

  Troll Hunter Troll hunter is a Norweigian mockumentary that digs deep into the mythology of trolls. Three college students, Thomas, Johanna, and Kalle, set out to find Hans, who they believe is a bear hunter. At first, Hans puts them off, but they follow him into the woods where Hans comes back, screaming, “Trolls!” Hans later agrees to let them film the process with the condition that they will do only as he says. The students continue filming as Hans flashes out the troll and manages to turn it into a stone. They continue to another hunting where they use live goats as bait, the situation gets out of control, and Kalle is killed in the process. Kalle is replaced by a Muslim, Malaca, after which they accompany Hans to hunt another giant mountain troll. After several attempts, Hans manages to kill the troll by turning it to stone using a rocket-like projectile. As the movie ends, government agents arrive to confiscate the recorded tapes, but Thomas flees with the camera and collapses at the road side. (“Trollhunter (2010)”)…

  Treatment Of Mexican Americans: Quixote’s Soldiers             Quixote’s Soldiers is local history by the David Montejano of the Chicano Movement. David Montejano wrote about the residents in the San Antonio, the political and social lives of people in the city who were blacks, Mexican Americans, and the Anglos Business elite and the entrenched Anglo social governed the San Antonio, Texas segregated city.[1] Substandard local and regional housing and experiencing flooding during some seasons in the barrios of the south sides and west sides of Mexican Americans where gang warfare regularly happened and broke out in the sides. The farmworkers of Texas from the south were striking through the city, and they later form and set off a social movement, which transformed the barrios and later brought the old Anglo oligarchy down. David Montejano uses a wealth of highly readable and intriguing account of this turbulent period in Quixote’s Soldiers.[2] The wealth came from untapped sources that were previously used (congressional papers of Henry B. Gonzalez). The narrative was later divided by David Montejano into three parts; college students politicized…
