C.E. #1.3

Short response:
1. 100
2. Hicks says he struggled with alcoholism in his life, and that area had been supportive and helped him stay sober for 13 years.
3. 11pm-6am is the curfew
4. the school raised about $10,000
5. I'd be interested in watching 'A Star Trek: Discovery'

Long Response:
1. It was interesting because Trump's decision was mostly to prove to his party and citizens that he didn't have to go with only what people told him, and that he was capable of making his own decisions.
2.  I think that since there has been so much friction over the past few weeks with him and his political party conflicting, he thought he needed to make a gesture to show how he made his own decisions. Personally, I think the amount of talking he does about his own opinions proves that he makes his own decisions, but there could be another side of the story that the public doesn't see between GOP Leaders and Trump.
3. Based off of political history, it could be speculated that GOP Leaders are alarmed by his decision. Since he goes against their wishes on this, then he could refuse to do much else without their approval, possibly only out of defiance and not entirely for what he believes the country could benefit from.
4. I think the United States could definitely benefit from a president making an effort to make some decisions on both the Republican side and the Democratic side, but I don't know if Trump's decision was for all the right reasons - I believe it was mostly to show GOP Leaders that he could to what he wanted. Even so, our country might still benefit from this decision.

Car raid

Avery Shelton has had her favorite silver Toyota Forerunner since 2015. Her car has traveled with her as she has grown and has served her well. Shelton’s family bought her car in 2015, and it’s been used by her family almost every day. “My family uses our car all the time,” Shelton said. “We use it for simple things such as going to the store, but also on big trips across the country.” The car is tidy, but has dilapidated grey seats. “Since we use our car so much, we often find that it gets a little run-down,” Shelton said. “We always try to keep it as clean as possible though.” Shelton has three sisters who can make life in the car quite difficult. “The biggest downside about the car is that my sisters always take up so much room,” Shelton said. “They’re so loud and make a ton of messes in the car.” A cinnamon-scented car diffuser dangles from the mirror, filling the car with a delicious smell. “We love our diffuser so much,” Shelton said. “I think it ...

C.E. 4.1

Short Answer: 1. La Veta, Colorado 2. This cartoon is making fun of what President Trump said about having a 'bigger button' than Kim Jong Un, and that made him sound idiotic.  3. Bobby Levinski, Ellen Troxclair, Rich DePalma, and Shane Sexton. 4. Seven Players were chosen. They're Sabrina Bianco, Avery McKenzie, Caitlin Godwin, Kandace Blackburn, Keara McGraw, Kyndall Johnson, and Emily Swift.  5. I'd like to own the Fitbit and the Gopro because I know how the regular products work, and those seem like really advanced pieces of technology. The Gopro is useful for skiing, and the fitbit would be useful for getting back into exercise.  Long Response: 1. The name of the book is called: " Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House" 2. Trump's lawyer says that the book includes false statements about Trump, therefore "give rise to claims for libel". For that reason, Trump doesn't want the book to go out. 3. I think in some cases, ye...
