The most recent article I read was about Tom Petters. Tom Petters is a billion dollar man, he got his fortune from being an entrepreneur. he owned Sun Country airlines he also owned and invested in many other companies. Currently Tom Petters is being charged with mail fraud. One of his associates is the scheme was secretly recorded by federal agents. While being recorded he said that he suspected they had taken about 2 billion dollars from the government since 1995. On another one of the recording secret agents obtained they caught Tom Petters talking about "fleeing the country and creating fabricated defenses if the fraud scheme is discovered". A company that is Marjory suffering from this fraud scandal is the Fidelis Foundation who was a massive investor in a non prophet organization called Minnesota teen challenge which treats over 400 teens and adults that have bad addictions. If these charges follow through this charity could lose major funding.

On the bubble map in my notebook I had to Define Emalina, the adjectives I chose to use for her were. Respected, Demanding, Motherly, Short, Happy, and Giving. My other character is Codi, if I needed to pick adjectives for Codi they would be. Paranoid, Lost, Smart, Tall, and Loved. We can all tell that Emalina and Codi are completely different people from how they both live their lives. An adjective that shows the differences between Emalina and Codi is that Emalina is happy and Codi feels lost. I know that Emalina is happy because you can tell she feels a sense of belonging in Grace. On the other hand Codi feels very lost in Grace, a specific example of this is on page 182, the quote said. “Home is the place where, when you have to go there, They have to take you in. I don’t want to be seen as pitiful”. These are some of the things that show the differences with Emilia and Codi but they also have some similarities. Two Adjectives I have that show the similarities in Emilia and Codi are that Emilia is giving and Codi is loved. Emilia is giving because she offered her guest house to Codi for her whole return to Grace, that exampled also shows how Codi is loved. Another example of how Codi is loved is how she got offered to get her teaching license renewed for the upcoming year at grace high school.

If I needed to pick an adjective that described me it would have to be determined. There are many reasons I would pick but one of the main ones is that I try my best at everything I do. Some examples in my life of how I’m determined would be when I wakeboard, when I try to land a new trick wakeboarding I fall a lot, But every time I fall I get back up and try it again until I get it right. But that’s just outside of school. In my school year I need all the determination I can muster out to get through the year on the top of my game. All in all I would defiantly call myself a very determined person shown in everything I do.
