Reflections of the Heroes Adventure As life progress we all have a destination that is purposely for us. Some will finish the task and others fall short. Heroism is the purpose for those who not only finish the journey, but in the process help those around them. Joseph Campbell has interviewed and explained the development stages to becoming a real hero or heroine. Bill Moyer took upon himself to host the interview and ask specific questions that can make or break stages within the process. Throughout the interview Campbell uses specific theories that translate to our everyday lives. Three of those theories are the basic structure of heroism, the transformation of a hero, and the triumphant return. All of these can be converted to examples…
In simpler terms, our collective, permanent conditions linked to our brain combine with current, more temporary situations in our life to create a dream. The song, The Boat of The Fragile Mind subtly poked at the words of Campbell, “I dream about you all the time, [y]ou must be on my mind… [t]o live to tell the tale of it” (Mare, 2013). Writer of the song, Amelia Bushell illuminates that her dreams about this person has a direct link to her thinking about that person constantly and that we live…
being put into context. How many times does a human blink daily? How many of those blinks are flicked at a screen, more specifically the screen of a smartphone? The realization might startle some. The problem does not lie in the attachment, but rather the effects they have on the lives of all who use them. They have crept their way into many if not most aspects of our lives. For instance, count the number of times someone has walked out the door and rushed back inside to retrieve their phone,…
The student government body is similar to that of the House of Representatives. Each person on the governing body gets to express their view points. Also like the House of Representatives, the student legislative body is overseen by an assembly or legislative chair. The legislative chair is responsible for setting an agenda to be discussed each week at the general body meetings. On the agenda, bills are up for vote and discussion. Usually, a member of the legislative body will propose a bill to…

While their opinions are to be respected, to simply state it, there is a better option that exists. Some believe that this bill implies that the “First Amendment should be treated ‘not as a right but as a privilege’” (Sigmon 1). What is false about this belief is that all legislation can be deemed unconstitutional if it is. The lawmakers of America want to protect citizens while respecting the rights granted to them in the Constitution. It is part of their job to use the Constitution as a…
process requires the president and congress to work together to create laws. Article 1 of the constitution states that “all legislative powers granted herein shall be vested in a congress of the united states” (Fisher 2007, 84). Congress is made up of two chambers, the House of Representatives and the Senate, both of these chambers share an equal role in creating legislation (Chamberlain 1946). The president also has an important role in creating legislation at the beginning of the process and…
recalling a certain portion of my speech at the time. To fix this error in my speech, I would improvise by bringing up my personal ideologies that were founded on libertarianism, but not all the students would approve with the libertarian policies. Furthermore, I will now move on to my persuasive and special speech, which were my decent speeches for this class. Throughout my persuasive speech, I would discuss about repealing the $15 Minimum Wage Bill from California’s legislator, considering…
“California equal pay bill may be toughest in nation” (Masunaga 2015). This article was written by Samantha Masunaga and published in the Los Angeles Times. The Los Angeles Times has been in circulation for more than 130 years and has won over 40 Pulitzer prizes. The paper has been accused of having a liberal bias, but I do not feel that it has any bearing on this particular story. Samantha Masunaga attended UC Berkley Graduate School of Journalism. Prior to joining the staff at the Los Angeles…
Of course, Jack and Bill also have more investigations to do thanks to some information that has come to light regarding Mr. Gowen. I simply adore the pairing of these two--kind of like the dynamic duo of the Old West. One has to go by the books, and the other can be a little more creative in his interpretation of the law. Together, they are invincible as they solve whatever crime or perceived crime comes their way. As Bill, Jack is handsome, rugged and certainly committed to justice at any…
