Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho “Joshua fit De battle of Jericho” is a well-known African American spiritual that glorifies the power and ingenuity of song. While its origin appears to be lost in time, it is believed that the song was composed in early 19th century America by plantation slaves working in the antebellum South. However, the first known recorded version was done by Harrod’s Jubilee Singers in 1922. The song is based on the Old Testament biblical account in the book of Joshua regarding the conquering of the city of Jericho by the Israelites. Joshua led the Israelite army to silently march around Jericho for six days, and on the seventh day, they blew their trumpets, culminating in the fall of the city walls. It is as if the song alluded to the fact that the enslaved people would ultimately achieve victory over the evil of slavery by singing their songs the same as the Israelites how Israelites achieved victory by blowing their trumpets. The song is considered to belong to the spiritual genre of music and, as…

nursing residency program What I expect from the nursing residency program is gin skills in clinical practice. I expect to gain skills on how to take care of the patients and families the right way. Since this program is meant to help students in the transition of clinical practice, I expect more. I know I will be able to achieve my goals by joining the nursing residency program, primarily because it is well registered, meaning there is no need to worry about the qualification of the lecturers. I also want to join the residency program because it will help me to learn more about specialized information that will help me to have more skills at work. The reason why I am choosing a nursing career is that the human body has always enthralled me and how it works. My favorite subject when I was in high school was anatomy and biology, and from since then, I knew I wanted to pursue a career in the medicine area. I love connecting with people, and it does not matter whether its friends,…

Autumn Concerto On 26th March 2019, I listened to the autumn concerto by Antonio Vivaldi on YouTube. Com. I chose autumn because I found it the most exciting violin concerto in the Four Seasons. Antonio Vivaldi was one of the most famous composers during the Baroque period. He was born on 4th March 1678 in Venice, Italy, as the firstborn in a family of nine children. He composed more than 500 pieces during his time, including the Four Seasons for which he is celebrated. Vivaldi’s father, Giovanni Battista, taught him how to play violin in his early years. He accompanied his father when he toured Venice to play the violin. Vivaldi joined the priesthood in 1693 but withdrew in 1703 due to chest pains, but since then, he concentrated more on his music aspirations. One of his famous works is the Four Seasons, which is a piece consisting of four sections, which are winter, autumn, summer, and spring. He composed the pieces to offer a musical representation of the four seasons in a year. Autumn turned out to be my…

“Cafe at Night” by Van Gogh-Same Directions Cafe at Night by Van Gogh is a colorful painting with very bright colors such as yellow, white, and blue. The art seems to have made at night since the blue sky is illuminated with white patches of cloud visible. The painting appears to have formed by an onlooker from the building next to the yellow building since the artist only painted just a small portion of the blue building. The yellow building looks like a cafe that still has customers with some benches empty, meaning it was not peak hour. There are people in the pavements going on with their usual business. The other buildings opposite the cafe are well-lit, meaning probably it an early evening and people are not asleep yet. The pavements are quite clean, no litter portrayed in the painting, describing that it could be a posh area, densely populated, who respect the cleanliness of the environment. My imagination in the art is that this was a favorite joint to the artist, and that’s why she documented it. Maybe…

Blue Collar Brilliance by Mike Rose In my opinion, Blue Collar Brilliance by Mike Rose basically,tries to paint to the reader the picture that there are various levels of work in society; jobs ran by people who are highly educated in contrast to jobs ran by people who are not highly educated. Mike makes this crucial comparison to explain the fact that we should not judge other people’s intelligence based on the kind of work they do. Through his family’s experience working in the blue-collar environment, he strives to show how a person working as a manual laborer is not any different from an individual that has a significantly high level of education. In the article, Mike Rose says, “My mother Rose Mesgalio (Rosie). Shaped by her identity as a waitress in coffee shops and family restaurants” (Rose,2009). In my opinion, this is, by far, one of my most favorites quotes in Mike Rose’s article based on my experiences in the working environment. Mike Rose, in his article, explains that individuals who hold blue-collar jobs are as intelligent as individuals…

Critical Thinking Does money motivate employees? Why or why not? Money motivates employees. Money is the foundation of different lifestyles that different individuals exhibit. Employees can use the money to buy things that can satisfy their desires and needs. Employees base the value of services that they offer an organization to the money that they earn. The symbolic value of money enables employees to feel more appreciated and recognized. Symbolically, money serves as a measure of the input that employees bring into an organization. Additionally, money serves as a direct reward for performance. Employees can only perceive their performance as significance based on the marginal amount of money they are offered. With money as a reward, employees are motivated to work better as this guarantees them job satisfaction. Why should compensation systems be equitable?

Any employee would want fair treatment from the employer. Compensation equity becomes an essential tool for achieving organizational success. Paying employees fairly motivates them to…
