The Television programme 7:30 report has released a clip named powder keg. Powder keg focuses on a drug scandal which threatens to destroy a rugby league club. The reports target audience is sporting fans but in particular fans of the sport rugby league. The clip does not support one side of the argument more then another and includes opinions from recognised people as well as factual information supporting both sides of the argument. The report takes on a very dark and serious tone from start to finish.
Rarely, though, do you think of these artists as victims or sympathetic individuals who yearn to be loved or shudder at the thought of abandonment. Well, maybe not—there are a lot of messed up musiciansIdealized into a role of void of human emotion, and oozing “coolness”, most rock groups are only slim, misleading versions of reality. ( why???) The Goo Goo Dolls are a band that breaks this cliché mold of sex, drugs and invincibility. While they know how to rock, they also know how to write meaningful, self-reflective masterpieces that bring the falseness to light, and remind us that theywho??
The initial reports concerning his death insinuated a drug overdose. If someone were asked why Jim Hendrix died the common response would be drug overdose, a typical rockers death. I thought the same thing. But what really happened is even better. Jimi Hendrix was on his European tour.
Eminem blames the parents for not spending time with their children is turning them in to delinquents as to it being his music turning them into delinquents. He raps about his life and even his fame and in most recent years his recovery process. McCrillis states that “In all fairness to Eminem's critics, there is a meanness and, in some cases, viciousness to a great deal of contemporary music. The meanness is certainly not limited to rap, but rap tends to bear the brunt of this criticism because, as music goes, it appears to be the most imitative of political speech” (McCrillis, 2003). Which he does have a point because rap music does bear the brunt of most criticism in the music industry for all the vulgarity that it has in the lyrics and Eminem is no exception when it comes down to the vulgarity of his music.
The government already feels they are bending backwards by allowing medical marijuana, but they still disagree with everything about it. The government even created the movie called Reefer Madness, which is a 1936 movie that wanted to make people believe that when people smoke marijuana than they would become crazy, starting from a hit and run accident, to manslaughter, suicide, attempted rape, and descent into madness. At the tail end of the eighties, the use of marijuana and other drugs started to reach a new height. At first, lots of people started using the drug because the party scene started to grow increasingly. But by the end of the eighties, society started to abuse cannabis.
December 2, 2010 Killing the Savage By Reluctant Materialist What we need now is another Aldous Huxley. Most people know Huxley for his psychedelic drug influenced writings. But recent events have me thinking of his 1932 novel “Brave New World,” in which he observed the hazardous effects of materialism and promiscuity, and offered a solution: exercise chastity and don’t be materialistic. “Feeling lurks,” he threatened ironically, “in that interval of time between desire and its consumption.” O.K., in reality promiscuity and materialism haven’t hit us as hard as in “Brave New World”, but they’re here — and the rate of divorce is only 50%, it’s not an obscenity…yet. But only a satirist — and one with a very savage pen — could do justice to what’s happening to the modern world now.

To continue Kesey expression through strong-willed lead roles who differentiate from the crowd, he created the character of Randle Patrick McMurphy, to showcase his own rebellious ideas into, “a defiant man in a madhouse where madness was the only affirming and clarifying response to the dehumanizing tyranny of an authority figure” (Great American Trip). Though the use of psychedelic drugs contributed to Keseys expression, he states that, “Drugs don’t create characters or stories any more than pencils do. They are merely instruments that help get them on the page” (Ken Kesey). It is in this novel that Kesey sets out to relay his ideas that he lives his life through. He first begins by constructing a setting of societal influence, a mental hospital.
Then why are you still smoking? The reasons for smoking are very psychological. People are driven to try tobacco by the glamor of smoking in the movies and in advertisements. Addiction to nicotine makes it difficult to quit smoking once you have started, but this addiction can be broken in
The pcsycadelic album and The Beatles alter ego’s all stemmed from expanding their minds with LSD. This is obvious with songs like Lucy in the sky with diamonds (L.S.D) and within without you is directly describing the feelings and thoughts of George Harrison while on acid: “ Try to realise it’s all within yourself no-one else can make you change, and to see you’re really only very small, and life flows on Within and without you” This is about the feeling that acid creates of realisation that as a human we are very small and insignificant going by the sheer size of the universe. And the self-analysing want to change, knowing it is only yourself that can change how you feel. References http://www.lyricsdepot.com/the-beatles/within-you-without-you.html Aids is funny.
