I was so happy that I didn’t have to worry about the stress of this topic anymore. My parents were so proud that about how determined I was. Now I realize that it wasn’t until I completed the Geometry class in my junior year that I passed the regents in June of 2011. I believe this is because Geometry was the necessary class to take before Algebra II Trigonometry but the curriculum in my school district wasn’t set up that way, causing many students to fail. Many students who failed were “A Students” and never failed a test before this.
During World War I, Doolittle saw no overseas duty but was a flight instructor and preformed his war service at Camp John Dick Aviation Concentration Center. He remained in the service after the war ended and received a first lieutenant’s commission in the Regular Army in 1920. Doolittle emerged as a public figure in 1922 when he flew from Pablo Beach, Florida to San Diego in less than 22 hours flying time, the first to span the continent in less than 24 hours. He was then selected to be one of the first participants in the army’s new program in aeronautical engineering. He received a doctorate from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1925.
From this chapter, I learned much about the backgrounds of some of today’s most successful figures. It also helped to prove what Gladwell stated in the previous chapter. He gave many examples about how one must be in the right place at the right time. Bill Gates was extremely lucky that he received all those opportunities. If he was born 2 years later, didn’t go to Lakeside, didn’t find out about the computer at the University of Washington or did not discover ISI then for all we know, Microsoft could have never been created.
Nathan Cox HIS 122 Paul Tibbets Paul Warfield Tibbets Jr. was born on Febuary 23, 1915, in Quincy, IL. His father was a salesman in a family grocery business. His mother, the former Enola Gay Haggard, grew up on an Iowa farm and was named for a character in a novel her father was reading shortly before she was born. The family moved to Miami, and at age 12 Tibbets took a ride with a barnstorming pilot who dropped Baby Ruth candy bars on the Hialeah race track in a promotional stunt for the Curtiss Candy Company. He was thrilled by the flight, and though his father wanted him to become a doctor, his mother encouraged him to pursue that dream.

In conclusion, to try to raise money for senior prom, Riley and I tried to sell cookie dough to Mr. Walters, Mr. Voltz, and Mrs. Kodrich. Although we didn’t meet our goal of selling ten tubs ok cookie dough, we at least helped our school a little bit. Next year we will definitely try to sell more of whatever the school is trying to sell. The important thing is we tried to raise money for the school. And that is the story about how Riley and I sold cookie
He was able to enter Westminster School at the age of thirteen, and from there went to Oxford, where some of the best scientists in England were working at the time. Hooke impressed them with his skills at designing experiments and building equipment, and soon became an assistant to the chemist Robert Boyle. In 1662 Hooke was named Curator of Experiments of the newly formed Royal Society of London -- meaning that he was responsible for demonstrating new experiments at the Society's weekly meetings. He later became Gresham Professor of Geometry at Gresham College, London, where he had a set of rooms and where he lived for the rest of his life. His health deteriorated over the last decade of his life, although one of his biographers wrote that "He was of an active, restless, indefatigable Genius even almost to the last."
