60 Minutes: Benghazi

Morgan Jones, an alias for his real name, witnessed the attack on the U.S. ambassador and could possibly say that the attack was premeditated. A traumatic experience for any normal person, although Jones has been through worse, either way he’s got a story to tell with a voice to speak.

Our interviewer keeps calm during the interview showing little expression; however this is a very serious topic to be discussed. Our interviewer listens and nods her head at everything Jones says, or at least from what we can see since there are several cut scenes.

This segment of 60 Minutes is something for the American people to watch whether they believe they are well protected or not, because these events that occur out in other countries affect us here as well. Seeing the way that Jones describes the scene and how likely it could have been that an attack was premeditated maybe weeks before really makes one question what’s really going on in the world.

60 Minutes: Dick Cheney's Heart

In the 60 Minutes segment regarding Dick Cheney and his heart disease throughout the years, the interviewer does an outstanding job at being the interviewer. Some background on the interview, Dick Cheney has had a family history of heart disease and “bad hearts”, where he was drawn into the bad habits at a young age and striking back when he reached the older ages.

Dick Cheney has a lot to say, especially since he just came out with a book talking about his heart. So then the interviewer has to either openly listen and look intrigued by Cheney's life, or he really does those things.

The interviewer truly does his job, listening and bouncing off questions that come from Cheney's answers, showing how interested he is with his wide eyes when he hears something amazing or unbelievable.

Someone should watch this video if they want to know more about how the world of medical science is changing or if they have or know someone close with a heart disease. Dick Cheney is often looked at as a political figure that people either love or hate, although this video captures more of his personal life than his political life.

The Most Amazing Thing

The most amazing thing that's happened to me this year, so far, wasn't really a physical thing. Really it was more like a series of events, that just occurred one after another.

I guess things kind of started up with clearing my head up, dropping most everything and picking up only what was important. Pretty much I got out of the mindset that I'm required to finish every new interest that comes my way. Even if it wasn't important.

I've spent a lot of time on school; not very amazing or special, although it helps. When you've got school and all your assignments out of the way you have more time for yourself. Like I was balancing things better.

The band has been going decently well, aside from some minor conflicts the main idea is to never give up. Other members or potential members could cause a conflict, although you shouldn't keep it going. Keeping a conflict active, in any situation, makes both sides look like fools.

Writing is going well, the book is coming along, it would be nice to spend more time on it. Right now it feels like I might have to rewrite it all, although in the end I'm concerned it won't turn out as well as it was in the beginning.

Everyone's got personal problems, some keep them to themselves and others can't stop talking about it on Facebook. I like to keep things to myself, but I keep one person close, if anyone else wanted to leave I would encourage them. But I would do anything to keep that one person close.

Aside from the great realization I've had, not much else has happened. Some more sleep would be nice, but that'd be a miracle.
