May 9‚ 2013 Today I started reading Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs. I really like how the author describes the background of the story in the prologue of the book. It really helps to understand the story better later on. Jacob‚ the main character in this book‚ is kind of a shy kid‚ and seems like a slacker. He doesn’t seem to want to work hard at anything. I really love how the author jumps right into the plot with Grandpa Portman’s frantic phone call while Jacob is

May 5th‚ 1774 I’m seeing the same thing every day. Them not wanting to go to war. Why would any one man want this? I see the world being able to become a better place if we did go to war. I blame England for this horrendous and tragic time in our country. I will speak freely about my beliefs‚ I do have that right.

Journal Entry 1 This week was a little scary for me because I missed the first day of practicum. I never received an email but the director of the center was not taking any excuse. I was afraid being the only Hispanic that I have seen in the center that I would be treated a little different. So far I haven’t felt excluded except with some children. I’m hoping that by next week I will memorize the children’s names and correct spelling. Journal Entry 2 This week was a little better

Gold Standard or not the Gold Standard? Thesis Statement The ever-decreasing power of the dollar has made many an advocate of the gold standard and in-fact many want to return to the gold standard as a monetary system. Over the past 2 years alone the purchasing power of the dollar has decreased 30%. In the exact same time frame‚ the price of gold has increased by over 100%. Throughout this paper I will try to prove why the use of the gold standard in modern day society would not
