1. What do you think about Olivia's perspective about money? How do you think her experience at the Behala dumpsite has changed her? In this quote Olivia finds herself realizing that the world revolves around money. No-one can live without it but the people in Behala are working very very hard and just barely getting by. No one really know what their money is worth and you don't think its very improtant until you don't have any.
2. Which one has the most liberal or anti-Zapanta perspective? Which one has the most conservative or pro-Zapanta perspective? Use examples from each article to support your opinion. I think that the most Liberal Newspaper article is the University Voice, I think this because the people that wrote this article are not backing Zapanta up at all and they say that this is not the first time he has had Controversy. They call him an old greedy man and say that he is lining pockets. On the other hand the conservative Newspaper is the Star Extra because they say that the police are having a "professional investigation" and say that the stolen money is "undisclosed".
3.Describe the scene at the cemetery during day of the dead. Why do you think the author, Andy Mulligan, would end the book in this setting? The scene in the cemetery was very dark and mysterious almost like something out of an action movie. I think the reason that the author ended it in this setting is because there were many people in the cemetery rich or poor dirty or clean and they were all equal at this time.

trash or treasure
Looking in the trash since they were born
Working all day till they are sore
A key and a map in a mysterious bag
why do the cops want it so bad
will it be a gift and bring much luck
or will they keep finding things from a garbage truck
Responce to trash...Questions.
1. The conditions in the prison were very poor. Because the climate was not good and most of the prisoners were sick mentally or physically. I think that the reason that the kids were in there was because they were framed for doing something, they stole something, or they broke into or trespassed into somewhere.
2. The reason that the two were able to get into the prison was first of all because Gordo tricked Olivia into thinking that he was Gabriela's grandson and that he needed to talk to him. Then Olivia ended up having to talk with Gardo and the shrink and then she had to pay several large fees with the money that she was going to use with her friends at a fancy restaurant.
3. Raphael learned a few things about Rat (Jun-Jun) and those things are that he has a stash in his house of 2,326 pesos that he has saved up. He also found out that he was from Sampalo.
4. The Gardener tells Raphael and Rat that Jose has stolen the 6 million dollars and He put it into and old fridge. He then paid the movers to drop off the fridge at a spot that he would pick up the money.
5. If I had six-million dollars The first thing that I would do would be to buy a house in a place with warm water and good waves. Then I would build a dope skate park in my backyard and put a ping pong table by it and get a wave pool. Then I would get a bunch of surfboards and have my own private beach.

A friend named tom

A funny person named tom
When I hear the word “friend” Tom McCarron come to mind immediately comes to mind because he is funny, he is a good skateboarder, and I can relate to him a lot.
Tom is my friend from Seattle where my mom lives. I met him because he is my other friend’s cousin. We got along right away. He is very funny because he has ADD and he doesn't focus very well. He also has A.D.H.D and he picks up random shoes in my house and then starts to use them to skateboard with his hands. This is very funny. One time when he was at my house we started to eat chips, I took salsa from the fridge and ate some and then offered some to Tom he tried some and started to scream because it was so good.
Tom is really good at skateboarding, he has been skating for two years and he has progressed really fast. One day tom and I decided we wanted to go to the skate park. So we got a ride from his mom and she left after she dropped us off. After two hours tom decided to try to grind a hubba. He Ollied up fell off and started to scream. And I saw that his wrist was really broken. That was scary.
Me and tom have a lot in common for example we both skateboard, we both love salsa and we both have slight mental health problems.

technology
I own many techno devices for example, ipod, x box, tv, lights, and the list goes on. I think modern life depends on electronics. I use mostly my phone and that it the most important electronic to me in my life. Because I use it for an alarm clock to wake up in the morning, I use it to communicate with my family and friends, and even thought I don’t have it, you can get internet on your phone. Another important electronic in my life is the internet and the computer, because with it I can use face book, YouTube, and see what is happening in the world. The most important website I use on the internet is face book because I can talk to friends and see what everybody is doing.
In 10 years I think that everything is going to be very easy because they will have come up with new ways of teaching and everything will possibly be on tablets like the iPad and you will not have to longhand anything and I also think that math will be very easy because there will be sophisticated calculators to do all of the work for you.
In 50 years everything will be done by robots and nothing will be done by humans.
