Answer:

Jason

Explanation:

Jason is the leader of the Argonauts in Greek mythology looking for a golden hide.  In Greece, under the leadership of Jason , the heroes come together and decide to go to Kolhis to capture the Golden Fleece. The Argonauts build a ship called go Argo  and set out for Kolhida. After a long and very difficult journey, they reach the powerful and rich kingdom of Aiet. The King respects Greek heroes and learns why they came. Aiet decides to hand over the Golden Fleece to the Greeks if Jason fulfills his requirements. Jason will first submit to the fire-breathing oxen, have a headlock on their heads, and drive a large field. Then Jason must kill a dragon and plant his teeth in the ground. Warriors emerge from these teeth. Jason must fight and defeat these warriors. Only then can the Greeks get the Golden Fleece. It is not possible for anyone other than Aiet to fulfill these requirements. Therefore the king is sure that Jason will die. Without the help of Medea, the daughter of the king, it is clear that the Greek leader would not be able to meet the requirements of Aiet. The daughter of the king fell in love with Jason at first sight and decided to help him. Medea is a sorcerer. With his help, Jason easily fulfills the king's requirements and asks Aiet for the Golden Fleece. The King immediately understands who helped the Greeks and explains that he will not give the Golden Fleece. Then Jason decides to take over the hide. However, it is impossible for Medea to do so without the help of Medea. The king's daughter puts the terrible dragon awaiting the hide, and the Greeks manage to capture the Golden Hide. They quickly board their ships and set off for Greece. Medea goes with Jason. As soon as Aiet knew that the hide had been taken away and his daughter had escaped, he immediately gathered his army and chased the Greeks. The soldiers captured Jason's army, but the leader of this army was Medea's older brother. For this reason, Medea says that Jason has kidnapped her and is thrown into her brother's arms. His brother accepts him, and Medea stabs his brother because of his love for Jason and throws him into the sea.  Jason and Medea flee while his army calls Medea's older brother to organize the necessary ceremony. For this reason, the soldiers are unable to retrieve the Golden Fleece.  As soon as Jason arrives, he agrees to marry the king's daughter. Jason hangs the pelt on a tree branch and brings this fertility to the land. Medea goes crazy when Jason leaves her and kills her own children. then sneaks into the palace and poisons Jason's wife.

I need a speech for student council, im running for president. Help?
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

I have ran and failed before. I learned my mistakes the next year and became VP. You really need to show what you can do to change what is bad. Students want to elect someone they like and know is competent. Be a leader in the classroom. Participate in class discussions and get good grades, it’s how you’ll prove your competence. Don’t be the class clown or the student who’s always on their cell phone or asleep. Make posters. The posters can be super simple; even just a print out of the slogan on normal computer paper will work. However, you should have a lot of them. The exact number will vary proportionally to the number of students in your class (or school, if you’re running for the overall Student Government President). What I mean by that is if your class has 100 students, 10 posters may be enough, but if you have 1000 students in your class, you may want to put up 50 or more posters. Count on some posters being ripped down or disappearing. Most schools have rules against this, but it’s hard to catch someone ripping down a poster. Plan on making extras. Some of these tips helped me in becoming VP so I hope this will help you.

Food consumption is used as a symbol for social status in the play. The more food is consumed by a person, the higher is his social status and the more prominent people he knows. Oscar Wilde uses the play to show that excessive society.
