Memphis Grizzles in the playoffs

Last night the Memphis Grizzles beat the Mavericks to take the 7th spot in the NBA playoffs. The Memphis Grizzles had a rough start to the year. The Grizzles had to beat the suns at first to even take a spot in the playoffs. The grizz won over the suns 91-97. The Grizz needed to win just about every game since Feb. to get a spot in the playoffs. Mike Conlee said  "We've played every game like a playoff game. It's been fun to be part of a group that comes in and stays focused and to get back in the playoffs. It's huge from where we started off this season." The grizzles were 10-15 after a loss to Dallas. The suns had lost several games and lost another to go home. In this game Memphis took the biggest lead 31-44 while Randolph converted a 3 point play into half time. The suns haven’t been in the playoffs in 2010 when they had Steve Nash. The suns are the fifth team in history to win 47 games and not make it into a spot to play in the playoffs. These type games that you have to fight for a spot are at times harder then to win a championship game. The Memphis Grizzles will take on the OKC thunder for the first game of the playoffs Saturday night. The game will be held at OKC then back to Memphis a after the 2^nd game. This will be an amazing first playoff game for these two teams.

Was the flood global or regional?

These two articles make me think harder than just thinking that God sent a flood to destroy earth. The Bilble eve says that he sent a flood but it never said if the flood was all over earth but he uses the word earth which makes me believe the flood covered the whole earth. If the flood did cover the earth then maybe God was upset with all the sin going on. I believe the earth was flooded because that is what i always have believed. I also believe it because of how powerful God is and what all he can do. For a Christians view point i would think we all would believe that the whole earth was flooded. For one of these people who is a christain and to agree with some points from a non christian does not need to happening because it could cause other christ believers to think it is ok to believe what non believers think. The flood was a global event and was reached to all corners of the earth. I am taking the side that agrees with the flood all over the earth. The reason i do not agree with the other that thinks it was only a region is because i do not think they have read the bible so they wouldnt know what it says about God flooding the earth.

Plagiarism pt 2

Imagine this exact situation took place at TCA...

How would you respond if you were convicted of plagiarism?

How would your parents respond?

Do you feel as if you deserve a passing grade because you parents pay tuition?

Does this story affect your view of plagiarism?

What do you take away from this narrative?

If i was convinced by plagiarism i would be upset knowing i did wrong but i would accept what i have done and face the consequences. My parents would be mad at me for doing what i had done wrong and i would be grounded for what i have done. I believe we deserve a passing grade just because my parents have to pay for me to go here. Our is full of great education and preparing us fro college. Since they don't offer us a passing grade if we did fail i think we should try harder in our work and take more time to study so we will pass without even worrying if they should offer us a passing grade because my parents have to pay tuition for me to go here. This story opens my eyes more makes me realize that people do plagiarize and they always end up getting caught with it. I take away from this that you have to be honest and can't try and hide something that you think you can escape from. You always get caught no matter how hard yo try and hide it!
