The demographic characteristics of the people in my region show that a large number of individuals are of the old age. The highest population is between the ages 25 and above with the individuals above 65 years being more. Concerning income status, a significant percentage of people earn 25 k to 125 k. The highest proportion of the population is earning an income range of 50-75 k.
Considering the above factors, the marketing of health and beauty products would be more effective. Regarding the age, a large proportion of the population is above the minor age, and their bodies are still healthy and attractive. However, as the age increases, the more individuals get ill and at the same time tend to lose their attractiveness. At this point, most people will tend to use the beauty products such as creams to keep their faces smooth and attractive. Therefore, the market for beauty products will be highly successful. Healthies, illnesses are associated with old age, and therefore according to our population, a large group are above 65 years meaning that they are prone to diseases related to old age such as diabetes and hypertension. The sale of health products that are targeted to the old people will be much successful, and massive sales will be made out of it.
Regarding economic status, a majority of the people earn a considerable income, and therefore we can say that their living standards are good. Earning between, 25k to 125k implies that the people have disposable income at hand. The presence of disposable income suggests that the resident will be willing to spend on the products especially if they are targeted to them, or they fulfil their demand. Considering that health and beauty products are not expensive, more people will be attracted to the low prices, and therefore the health and beauty products will be disposed at ease.

Letter to the Editor, The story of the killing of Emmett Till
The story of the killing of Emmett Till is quite shocking, more so when heard first hand from J.W Milam, who actually confesses to the crime. To think that the crime actually went unpunished is testament to the racial situation at the time. Not only is the crime for which Till was murdered atrocious, but the manner with which society did nothing for close to 5 hours prior to his murder, is also appalling. According to Milam, there was no way that a Negro could be considered his equal. Bobo’s crime judging by Milam’s confessions, was thinking that they could ever be equal, more so even thinking that they could have relationships with the same type of women (white women). It seems as the saga progressed, it ceased to be about what Bobo Till had done the previous day to carolyn, and become more about what his actions signified. To Milam, Till’s actions symbolized the feelings of entitlement that were brewing amongst the African Americans, leading to a situation where instead of knowing their place, they were pushing for equal voting rights an end to open segregation which would allow for sharing of amenities as well as an end to discrimination of multiracial relationships. To Milam and probably to a huge majority of whites this was poison that was unfathomable. The final decision to murder Emett Till was arrived at by Milam due to the fact that during the few exchanges they had, Till made it clear that he did not know his place, and in order to make an example out of him, they decided they would murder him, not because of his wolf calls to Carolyn, or the fact that he sexually harassed Carolyn, but because he signified all that Milam felt was and could be wrong with African Americans.
On the other hand, the strained nature of the relationship between African Americans and whites, as well as the effects of the Civil Rights Movement, had instilled a sense of entitlement and courage amongst African Americans at the time. The fact that despite repeated abuse and beating from Milam and Roy Bryant, he felt in order to prove a point he had to stand firm in his belief that he and Milam were equal, proves the strong conviction with which African Americans held their beliefs. Even when faced with the last opportunity to beg for his life Emmett Till opted to remain defiant. It could also be argued that the lack of fear shown by Elizabeth Wright and Emmett Till showed that the efforts of the Civil Rights Movement at the time, were bearing fruit.
Sadly, the reasons provided by the courts for not convicting the two brothers, as well as the lack of action by other whites to help close the case and bring to murderers to justice, show exactly how deep the racial divide was at the time, to the extent that condoning murder is considered the lesser evil when compared with siding with Negroes. On the other hand, it could also be argued that their inaction showed that they agreed with the actions of Milam and Roy Bryant, a suggestion that might not seem far fetched, considering that it is plausible to argue that the mindset of other whites at the time might not have been so different to that of J.W Milam.

Ballet Dance Analysis
Music involves different aspects for instance there is the song, dance and the instrumentals used. With dance, there are different types of dance including ballet, salsa among other dances. Ballet is widely known and among the theatres that present such dances include the famous Miller Outdoor Theatre. One of the ballet projects presented during the concert that captured my mind to find it interesting, quality and detailed was the Black Iris Project. Jeremy McQueen founded the project in 2016 as the key choreographer. The presentation in the concert was detailed and had key ballet features.
To start, a ballet dance takes up a large space on the stage. During the performance the dancers utilised the space to ensure all the moves are clear. Ballet involves stretching of the legs thus needs a lot of space and the dancers should be keen enough not to bump into each other while dancing (Guss-West, Clare, and Gabriele Wulf 29). During the dance there were no interruptions thus making the dance interesting with clear moves. The Assemblé was uniform and legs could return to the same position without interruption. Further, the Grande Jeté and the Pirouette was so beautiful and one could not get enough of this move during the concert.
Not to forget the Ballerinas who performed the modern dance were dressed in the right ballet shoes a well as the suit. It is important to dress on the right attire for a specific dance since it matters especially on flexibility and setting of the whole dance mood. The dancers wore satin pointe shoes which facilitated balancing on one toe. After balancing on one foot, the ballerinas performed the adagio and the angle above 90 degrees was noticeably which was so commendable to the dancers. The attitude was very uniform among the dancers especially when bending the knee towards the back. However, the front attitude was not to perfection perhaps because it was among the last moves performed by the dancers. Also, the camber was performed and one could confuse the dance with a movie since it appeared like the dancers had no hip bone. Both the fifth position and the first position were clearly brought out in the dance. Generally, it is always difficult to perform the fifth position and go back to the first position but with much practice, the dancers will always find making the transition an easy task (Kholodenko, Boris, John, and Walter 414).
The time the dance utilized was around seven minutes. The dancers were fast enough to perform the moves since they made nearly all the moves done while doing ballet in such a short period of time. Also the time used to transit from one move to the next was very short to an extent one could not notice it. The short transition time is so commendable and a good way to present the dance. Also, the dancers did not struggle and less energy was used performing the dance. However, literally, one could say a lot of energy was consumed by the dancers because of the hard moves made. There was variation of movement and they first move related to the second move and so did the third relate to the second and so on. The movements followed a certain pattern and there were many moves and hard for one to give an exact number.
Conclusively, ballet can be a boring dance when performed by people who are not skilled and done enough practice. The dance was so interesting and it was so evidence the audience could not get enough of it. The choreography was also done well to an extent there were very few minor mistakes in the dance (something a ballet fun can tell and a music teacher). At the end of the dance everyone applauded to show they did like the dance. The dance was one of the best dances performed in the concert.
