...Alyssa M. Gonzalez “13, 1977, 21” In Jonathan Lethem’s personal narrative essay, “13, 1977, 21”, Lethem reflects on when he was 13 years old, in the year 1977, where he watched the film Star Wars 21 times. But the essay is not actually about the Star Wars film. It is about the way Lethem used going to the movies to remove himself, or “hide” from the realities of his life, such as his mother’s illness and awkward pre-teenage years. The first few sentences of Lethem’s essay is where he blatantly tells the readers that he’s watched Star Wars twenty-one times in four months. He then uses the next three paragraphs to reflect on the circumstances surrounding his trips to the movie theater in the summer of 1977 and trying to understand what triggered him to go all twenty-one times. He describes the theater he watched the film in, down to the street in Manhattan it was on, and the interior of the theatre, that he explains was “a superior place to watch anything”. He also mentions that getting into the theater itself was “an accomplishment, both elevating and slightly dangerous”. He describes the popularity of the film at the time, where he says “any kid with a television had brought a single ticket for the same film in a single summer”, but emphasizes that he was a part of the small percent that turned watching the film into a full blown obsession. In the second paragraph, Lethem questions why he even went all twenty-one times. He writes: “But what actually occurred...

...The Self PSY/555 April 15, 2013 Dr. Anthony The Self The development of the self involves several interacting factors. Each of these factors contributes to ultimately determine one’s self-concept as well as self-esteem and self-presentation. The essential purpose of this paper is to define the concept of the self including how each individual develops a self-concept. Furthermore, the relationship between the self and emotion and how this relationship affects an individual’s self-esteem will be examined. Finally, an analysis will be provided of the relationship between the self and behavior and how this relationship affects and individual’s self-presentation. The concept of the self lies within an individual’s reality of behavior and numerous representations, perceptions, and schemas that encompass human thought processes. The self is said to exist within a framework of social interactions in which one engages in regular contact with other selves (Myers, 2008). To understand the concept of the self, one must comprehend how one’s self-concept is developed within each individual. Development of Self-Concept An individual’s self-concept is described as the perception one has of oneself and who they are in relation to the world around them. According to Myers (2008), it is the piecing together of the potential answers to the question ‘who am I?’ that constitute one’s complete self-concept.

...Alexander, son of King Philip II of Macedon, is known as Alexander the Great. However, was he truly great? One may look at his many accomplishments to decide if he deserves the title. Sometimes character is the test of determining if a man is great. Alexander meets both standards with his philosophic background, conquering abilities, victories in battle, and outstanding accomplishments; therefore, he truly meets his title as Alexander the Great Alexander was born in 356 B.C. to King Philip II f Macedon, and Olympias, princess of Epirus. King Philip was one of Alexander’s main influences. Philip was a man of action: he built cities, navies, roads, armies, conquered Athens, and created the League of Corinth, which he treated fairly. At age 13, Alexander’s father hired Aristotle to tutor his son. Aristotle’steachings encompassed all aspects of Greek life: art, poetry, science, and philosophy. Aristotle would become Alexander’s second greatest influence in life, one that would inspire him to live a good, moral life. Another tutor of Alexander’s, before Aristotle, was the Acarnian Lysimachus. He created a game with Alexander in which he would pretend to be the great hero Achilles. Alexander believed Achilles was the true example of a great aristocratic warrior, and he modeled himself after him. Later in life, Alexander would carry with him a copy of Homer’s Iliad and traded his armor for, what he believed to be, Achilles’ armor. When King Philip was assassinated, Alexander was...

...Josh Bright L26675616 201440 Fall 2014 BIBL 104-B64 LUO 09/21/14 Old Testament Bible project Malachi Malachi is the final book of the Old Testament. His name comes from the Hebrew meaning "messenger.” The authorship of Malachi remains uncertain, but since priests and prophets were called messengers of the Lord, a strong certainty leads towards Malachi. As we take a look at some background of the book Malachi, we see that prophetic movement by Haggai and Zachariah, the exiles that had returned under the leadership of Zerubbabel, finish the temple in 516 BC. In 458 BC, the land was strengthened by Ezra the priest and thousands of Jews. During this time, Artaxerxes king of Persia encouraged Ezra to reconstitute the temple worship (Ezr 7:17) and to make sure the law of Moses was being obeyed (Ezr 7:25-26). In 444 BC, this same king gave instruction to Nehemiah to return to Jerusalem and rebuild its walls. Nehemiah then took the reins as governor, and led changes to help the poor, (Ne 5:2-13) and he was able to convince the people to break off their mixed marriages (Ne 10:30), to keep the Sabbath (Ne 10: 31) and to bring their tithes and offerings faithfully (Ne 10:37-39). The date Malachi was written is uncertain. The similarities between Nehemiah and Malachi gives us the idea that these two were contemporaries. Malachi may have been written after Nehemiah returned to Persia, or during his second stint as governor. The theme of Malachi can be simply stated. The King will...

The inception of NASA’s Gemini Program in 1962 during the Space Race with the Soviet Union fulfilled the yearning of many star-gazers throughout history. It is truly a testament to human progress that with the Gemini Program we broke once inconceivable barriers and left this world we call our home if only for a short period of time. Even though the Gemini Program has been concluded for many decades, its impact on navigation through outer space, NASA, and human history will forever be remembered. The Gemini Program’s main intension was to innovate and improve the safety of space travel.

Kennedy in 1961 and the Mercury Project.
