Synopsis A

I agree with some parts of Synopsis A that refers to a chain of command being created to ensure a more systematic management of the Band of Merrymen. However, I believe that the solution does not provide specifics as to how revenues can be collected. I believe that it would be best to place leaders nearby the towns so that they can be easily identified by the wealthy, which will then lead them to avoid the areas where they know that the band’s leaders are located. I think that the solution is incomplete without ...

In addition, Robin realizes that the Sheriff is “growing stronger” and “better organized” and will use this strength and organization to undermine him and his band of men (Lampel, 1985, p. 1).

(Doctoral students must include the following on the title page instead: The essential task of leaders is to perfect how the things work in the organization. Changing the way “work works” is the essential foundation of leadership, according to Peter Cook (Cook, 2009). Therefore, the leader is the person who takes the organization to the next stage of development and improves processes to make them more effective and functional.

HIV/AIDS was seemingly the world’s most moving epidemic. With so many procrastinations, superstitions and politics, the realization of faster ways to handle the epidemic are slowed down as showed in the movie, ‘And The Band Played On’. Efforts by the CDC were significant but the management’s greed for credit led them to the discovery of the disease led to undesirable outcomes of professional misconduct. Essentially, the early war against HIV had its most apparent hindrance as the fact that it had a relatively long incubation period. However, many other inhibitors came forth slowing the medics understanding and ...

What factors inhibited the early war against acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)?

There was the lack of information to the public; in essence, the CDC did not communicate the correct information to the public. Many people assumed that the disease was for gay people yet the disease affected everyone. For instance, owners of the public bathrooms did not see the importance of closing the baths down yet they were a threat to the health of the public, (And The Band Played On 1993, 1993). The disease is also a rare one, and it did not have a name in the first place. It was quite difficult to establish the causative agent ...

Led Case

The plagiarism case of Led Zeppelin is significant because of the band’s iconic character. As for the side of the Spirit, the band who accuses Led Zeppelin of an alleged plagiarism, it is fair to raise such legal concern due to various reasons. First, the opening of Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin is closely similar to the Spirit’s Taurus (Rubin and Lewis, n.p.). The latter deals with the situation as if something was stolen from them, in which case, the construction of Stairway’s opening part. On the other hand, Led Zeppelin’s attorney claimed that ...

AMINAL’s motto states that all efforts to categorize the genre they play in are futile and that it is “their sworn duty” to melt their audience’s face. Indeed, the “molten rock”, as they call themselves can be used to define the style of the band and, thus, its appeal. The somewhat careless attitude towards what and how they play does not make the band appear uninteresting to the public; it is the part of the style they consciously use to attract new audience. In crude terms, people enjoy seeing a bunch of regular-looking dudes play cool music ...

Introductory Remarks

At this point, it is no secret the American society shows a degree of tolerance lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered individuals never enjoyed in the 20th century. The question emerges of why it is that people have grown more tolerant towards and supportive of LGBT individuals. Media categories, such as television and films considered the carriers of culture, influence people’s perception, as does the culture itself shaping it. Thus, the way such phenomenon as same-sex relationships along with their participants are depicted in television and movies determines how tolerantly the society will perceive such people. The major research ...

History of Fashion

Dick Hebdige’s article “Subculture: The Unnatural Break” poses the matter of the role of subculture in a conventional society. The article indicates that media is presenting subcultures such as punk, as threatening to the traditional societal conventions, to the generally accepted sense of morality, lifestyle or fashion. The arguments that the author uses vary from references to the members of subculture as different individuals that create semantic disorders to conversion and the erasure of the “other” to social norms. The article depicts how media techniques are used to highlight a subculture as negative to social standards. Hebdige suggests ...

Several challenges were abounding for Robin Wood such as inadequate provisions and limited finances. (Dess, Lumpkin, Eisner, & McNamara, 2014)

Indescribable charm of the Rolling Stones is closely linked with a bright and multi-layered personality of Mick Jagger.

Surprisingly multifaceted and somewhat contradictory nature allows Jagger to perform at least significant duties and in the background. Rolling Stones do not use the services of the manager - because they have Mick ...

I was fortunate enough to attend a really great concert. Entitled “Khitamoha Misk,” this concert featured a number of different instruments, including the Doff, the Bozok and the Oud. My favorite songs were Kan Ajmal Youn, al Tarboosh and Elwrd jmeel. The Arabic music is beautiful to behold, particularly when the performer was able to alter the scale. I especially noticed this during Maqam Hijas To Seeks. The rhythms and melodies in the Arabic music were absolutely poignant to me. I have long enjoyed many different types of music, but I would say that this was one of the ...

In an article about hip hop music and its intersection with jazz, Jared Pauley writes that both genres have often flirted with each other. Over the years, hip hop artists have utilized the flavor of jazz music through sampling. In the 1980s to the mid-1990s, hip hop acts "took jazz samples to the top of the charts while others worked directly with respected jazz musicians. With the new millennium, this trend continued" (1). One artist that has continued the trend is Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick Lamar is an emcee that has been on the scene for a number of years, ...

Pink Floyd – The Wall was the movie by the then 38-year-old British director Alan Parker. Both positive and negative feedbacks can be heard about this movie. Misunderstanding of this movie is connected with understanding ​​it as a too long video clip or a filmed concert of the Pink Floyd rock band which illustrated the songs through animation. It can be assumed that peculiar style met the resistance of people who were accustomed only to the linear plot and intelligible ideas shown in movies they watched. This Parker`s film, on the contrary, virtually lacks not only dialogues of the ...

Music and Sound Recording: popular music and protest songs.

1. My personal preference is to experience all things for myself, before passing judgement. The reason for this is that reviewers and critics are only people too and as such, their opinion is as subjective as my own. For the most part, critics are working on a mainstream basis: their opinion is one which they feel would best fit with most people’s expectations of a certain type of movie or album etc. For example, when Incubus released Morning View, many of their fans were dismissive of it for being less alternative than their previous albums. However, that is their opinion ...
