Analysis of a Classic Album: Bob Marley and the Wailers, Burnin (1973) The group known as the Wailers released the album “Burnin” in 1973 and featured Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer. The collection has songs like “Get Up, Stand Up,” “Hallelujah Time,” and “I Shot the Sheriff,” among others. The “Burnin” album starts with a rather unusual, ominous introduction, and continues to ring a notably darker than usual tone in a way that fits the songs lyrical matter. The band can accomplish this feat without taking the Wailers’ trademark groove out of the music, which is an idea that few groups have been able to blueprint equally. Even though the introduction is ominous, the music in this album picks on a beautiful ascend to create a beautiful piece. The first half of this album closes with the track “Put It On,” which is a catchy track that appears to summarize the slower, gentler, and harmonious melodies that make up the disc. The songs are inspirational and convey messages which touched on significant subjects that were relevant those times…

IKEA In INDIA Question 1 Small family businesses initially saturated the furniture market, which made competition high in the industry. Craftsmen gained their skills through apprenticeship, and they controlled the local market. 80% of the raw materials were acquired locally, and the residents were comfortable with the unique fusion in furniture practiced by the local businesses. Lead manufacturers occupied approximately 15% of the market, although they did not dominate the market. However, with time, there was an increase in demand for stylish homes and furniture, especially for the upper- and middle-class families. As a result, the lead manufactures got the upper hand in the demand market. Also, the Foreign Direct Investment policy barred IKEA from penetrating the Indian market due to its stringent laws. The process of restructuring the policies to accommodate international brands since the previous policies only accommodated small retail and local shops. FDI had to restructure its policies, which also took approximately one year. The new policies were not 100% exclusive and had numerous limitations for multi-national brands, which prolonged IKEA ‘s entry to India until January…

Evidence-informed practice Evidence-informed practice is a reliable approach for designing health-promoting plans and activities through the used of available data about strategies that have bee proved to work. This entails utilizing evidence in establishing the potential benefits, risks, and in quantifying the cost of the proposed interventions (Wall, Higgins, & Hunter, 2016). However, when applying this concept, it is vital to acknowledge that an approach that works effectively in one context may fail to be feasible in another. The evidence-informed practice combines the local experience with expertise by applying the best available research evidence. While making decisions about treatment approaches and how to evaluate my practice, an evidence-based approach informs my undertaking in the following ways. Initially, I always ensure that I am informed by evidence when I am planning the primary stages of a program or intervention. I also ensure to evaluate the program to disseminate the findings, thus helping in the development of the evidence base. For example, I often use the evidence obtained by establishing the association between a relevant theory in the field and the new…

The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock is a poem that was published by American-born British poet T.S. Eliot in 1915. The principal theme in the poetry is the alienation and loneliness of Prufrock, the main person in the poem who talks about himself and the things missed in life. Loneliness is evident from the way he repeatedly asks himself questions. That “us” in the first line is referring to his self and is clear evidence of loneliness in the poem indicating that he is accustomed to staying or living alone. Prufrock asks why he should spit out all the butt-ends of his days and ways. Who should he presume, and how to begin, are many of the questions he keeps asking himself. The silent streets and the quiet floors show that there was no one else around to keep him lively. There is the use of imagery in most parts of the poem to display Prufrock’s character and desires, which shows old age and decay. In the first part of the poem,…

utilitarianism and its illustration in the Novel Brave New World In this essay, I am going to focus on utilitarianism and its illustration in the Novel Brave New World. I will probably mention a few themes which are evident in this novel, for example, the death of God, death alienation, and authenticity. Utilitarianism focuses on how society benefits from the utilization of new ideas that are appropriately designed to increase their utility. Huxley’s novel portrays a futuristic world where physical and emotional pain and suffering have been eliminated, and people live healthy lives until they die aged 60? (REF). Human loving relationships and connections are absent, the need for a family unit having been erased by science and the genetically engineered test-tube children. Pleasure is perpetual, instantly obtainable through soma. In this world, society is stable, and Huxley argues that in such a world, there is no need, no place for religion and God. There is no suffering, and as God is merely a response to human pain and distress, God ceases to be of any benefit. Mustapha Mond explains…

The use of imagery in the “Dogfight” Storytelling has remained a powerful technique in poetry and songs over a long time. The use of stylistic devices in poetry can be amusing. For instance, through the use of conceits, poets have been able to engage the reader’s feelings making them depict their emotions as well. The use of imagery in the “Dogfight” reinforces the issues of conflict between different social classes in the 1970s. Different songs use human characters as protagonists who attempt to liberate themselves from the antagonists. An example of these songs is the “Bullet the Blue Sky,” whose main protagonists are the people in El Salvador who were the victims in the Salvadoran Civil War. The antagonist in this song is the U.S government that fueled the conflict through military funding. In the song “Streets of Philadelphia,” for instance, the LGBTQ community was discriminated against. The antagonists assume the roles of the protagonists, and through this, they portray them negatively. Just like it is in the song “A Rolling Stone,” these songs display the nature of human relationship…
