Malicious IMs Scenario

The consequences for the victoms of this hacking the 19 year old did could result in identity theft. Once teh victom conects to the link all the information on the computer can be viewed by the hacker. All credit card numbers, bank files, names of family, photos, and a lot more personal information if it is on you computer.

High School Hacker Scenario

The young man stole teacher passwords, hacked into the school network, was in the school after school hours, and he changed the grades of himself and his friends. Many of these actions are illegal. People who were affected by these actions are everyone. His parents are called for the consequences, his friends are in trouble with the young man, other students are probably questioning how these boys, who mess around, are getting better grades than the people who try their hardest. If i was a student at this young man's school, i would be really mad. A young man who doesn't try at all and probably skips class a lot is getting a passing grade, probably even a better grade than i am and i work hard for my grades where he doesn't. His bad actions added up and he should be getting in a lot of trouble for them.

The volleyball tournament was on May 16, 2010. We were the gold team. It was an all day tournament. double elimination. The first game was against red, who we had won against earlier. We had beat them in about twenty minutes. The first round was over. The next game was between light blue and green. Green had won that game. it was 3:15 and it was our turn  to play and we had to face the purple team. We lost to them when we played them earlier in the season. It was a tough game. We had won the first match, lost the second and finally, we lost the last match. We tried our best and gave it our all.  Even though we lost, coach still took us out to Scoops for ice cream. We had a pretty good season.
