And Cronus Tasking Dream': A Short Story

“The Story of Cronus” communicates with the theme the struggle for power since Cronus ate his children so that they wouldn’t take his throne. The myth states, “ Cronus having an uneasy conscience, was afraid that his children might one day rise up against his authority, and thus verify the prediction of his father, Uranus.” This quote shows how Cronus was afraid

Banksy has once stated, “A lot of mothers will do anything for their children except let them be themselves.” This quote explains how Percy or Rhea wanted to save their mother/son and this quote shows how that relationship works. The theme is correct because in the lighting thief the plot is about Percy is going on this journey only to rescue his mom not to stop the war between the big three. Also in “Cronus” Rhea wanted to save her son more than anything because Rhea now had someone to love and cherish.

“Stop it!” called Tatiana, playfully. Her boyfriend, Zach, was inspecting her skin very carefully. “Look,” he answered her, his voice taking on a more serious tone. “Today a woman walked into the clinic for her annual physical. Everything about her seemed fine. She leads a balanced lifestyle, she eats well, she exercises: she’s healthy! But as she was about to leave, I noticed a mole on her arm. It had many of the warning signs of skin cancer. So, I removed the mole. This woman now has to wait for the lab results to see if it was cancerous. If it is, maybe we

their medicine, but added, "I can't exactly go into their dorm room and count their pills."

The archetype, The Task appears in both The Odyssey and The “White Snake.” The Task appears throughout the story when the character has to complete, or achieve a certain thing to be able to fulfill the ultimate goal. In The Odyssey The task is present when Odysseus has to survive out in the sea to be able to return back home, and while he is traveling home he faces many obstacles that involve staying loyal and being extremely smart about the decisions he makes. A big challenge for Odysseus is surviving in the sea after being cursed by Poseidon when he faces the Cyclops, one of them is Poseidon’s son (Polyphemus). After Odysseus stabs the Cyclops in the eye and escaping, Polyphemus prayed to his father to curse the sea for the one that has

Men in today society are seen as dominant and independent creatures, most are shaped by their past and their actions. All will Sin, others more Moral than others, no man can escape it, their sins and guilt will continue to follow them until their death, their sleep will never come as it will be always unpleasant for darkness will consume them in a gulp. In William Shakespeare tragedy, Macbeth demonstrates how murder can effect ones manhood and their sanity, as he himself begins with a feminine stance until he outmanned his own wife, Macbeth is sane at the start but ends as feral with no image of God. But in the end, his own manhood caused him to fall from grace and instead caused a freefall into an abyss of sin and betrayal, this was punishment

to unnecessarily overprescribe medications to their pediatric patients. Of these prescription drugs, opioid pain killers, antibiotics, and psychiatric medications are the most commonly overprescribed in child care. For example, opioid prescriptions have increased 300 percent in the past seventeen years (Boerner 20), over 50 million unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions are written each year (Murray 266), and 6.4 million psychiatric prescriptions are given to children between the ages of four and seventeen each year (Johnson 19). The overprescribing of these medications leads to children experiencing unnecessary side effects, increases the chances of addictions, and encourages drug resistance. In this essay, I will be proposing that there should be a (i) government enforced set of extensive regulations and checklists that each patient must fulfill before receiving a prescription and (ii) governmental laws prohibiting careless prescribing by doctors and hold doctors more accountable for the prescriptions they write.

The druggist looked down at her. She looked back at him, erect, her face like a strained flag. `Why, of course', the druggist said. `If that's what you want. But the law requires you to tell what you are going to use it for'.

With access to prescription drugs, people are able to treat a multitude of diseases and illnesses. These drugs help deal with pain, inability to sleep, depression, and much more. Every day we are increasingly living in a world where there is better living through chemicals. However, what most do not seem to see is the rising tide of pain, illness, and ultimately death being caused by the pills people take every day. Most keep drugs in a special place in their minds, where they see them as harmless. Sadly, this is not the case, and in some cases our prescription drugs can be just as harmful as illegal drugs (King 68).

Even though people need their prescriptions, the abuse of them is getting out of control and we need to find a way to regulate it better,because it can destroy a family, cause some to become addicted, or even kill them. Prescription drugs are no joke, they can be worse than illegal drugs like marijuana, cocaine, and even heroin. The only difference is a doctor can prescribe these types of drugs. The problem we run into with prescription drugs is there is not enough being done to keep the person from becoming addicted or them selling to others. In 2007 2.5 million Americans abused just painkillers (Drug free world). That is not even including the other two types. Now it is starting to affect teens, one out of every ten teenagers admit to abusing a prescribed drug(Drug-free world).

“I got the same one.” Kaitlyn whispered, looking down at her phone, reading an exact word for word copy of the email he received. “I didn’t know Uriah’s last name was Owen.”

A philosopher is a person who is has learned philosophy and in words by definition I am a philosopher. I started this course not knowing what I would be learning and the simple title of the course was intimidating. I thought, am I going to be capable of understanding what great philosophers once debated? Religion is a huge issue I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to overcome since a lot of philosophers didn’t believe in God. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to separate my idea of life and viewing it as an intellectual philosopher. I thought that every idea wouldn’t have proof and that the only proof we had was the bible. The bible was the only piece of proof that I knew and that everything else wouldn’t be sufficient enough to make me change

Being unsuccessful, he went up to the heavens to his wife who had another spiteful plan. (“Cronus”)

They are nature's very own Death Star beams -- ultra-powerful jets of energy that shoot out from the vicinity of black holes like deadly rays from the Star Wars super-weapon.

Chaucer also demonstrates that dreams are layered with meaning and may serve as a tool for an intertextual analysis of literature and poetry when amalgamated into poems themselves. It encourages metareflection and the use of dream visions within Chaucer’s work alternates between a formulaic device or a significant and divine vision into the future. It becomes apparent that the dream is an effective and fundamental device for writing narratives that question reality, faith, and agency. The dreams in Troilus and Criseyde take various forms, altering shape under careful observation.
