SS1 41 Paragraph Test
“Get rich” SCHEMEs do not work! the whole pyramid SCHEME is a bunch of cyber nerds whom take advantage of people's stupidity. The people whom do this REGISTER under fake names and will take large PROPORTION of your time with these dumb SCHEMEs. They work by sending out mass messages to the public and asking people to send 1 dollar or more to a few different IP’s, hoping in the end that they will have received a large PROPORTION of the money. The point I am trying to make is that the SCHEMER normally will not receive all of the money. Therefore they do not work.

The Odyssey
In “The Odyssey” by Homer, Odysseus constantly becomes victim to temptation and his struggles to make it to his home land of Ithaca. Odysseus has to resist the temptations of not only man but also gods. Odysseus also has the god Athena on his side in his battle home. Athena is the god of wisdom who convinces Zues to help Odysseus on his journey home.
Here is one of the temptation's given to Odysseus by the nymph called Calypso. Odysseus becomes trapped on Calypso's island. She has a spell set on Odysseus so he can’t leave the island. Eventually Athena gets Zues to send the messenger for the gods called Hermie's to give Calypso the message to release Odysseus from the island. The temptation in this is that if Odysseus decides to stay on the island with Calypso he will have eternal life and youth. But Odysseus is faithful and yearns to be with his wife and in his own home. Calypso helps hi build a ship and sends him off to sea, a long voyage awaits him. The next island Odysseus stoops at is the lotus eaters and he faces the temptation o eating the lotus flower. Thankfully Odysseus dose not eat he flower and can leave the island unscathed and with all of his men. The next island that Odysseus stops at is the island of the Cyclops.
At the island of the Cyclops Odysseus makes one big mistake. He boasts about whom blinded the Cyclops. If he would have never done that his journey home would have been made easy. If he didn't boast Poseidon would have not known who blinded his son. One of the challenges that Odysseus had to face was sailing on the sea with the sea god Poseidon angered at him. The next tests of Odysseus will be at the island were Circe dwells. Circe is a goddess who hates men and turns them in to animals. again the god Athena helps Odysseus out and sends Hermes with a plant which weakens Circe’s power and she gives in to Odysseus and turns his me back into people and not pigs as long as he does her a few favors. Circe’s offers Odysseus to stay with her and he declines. Odysseus is not the only one who has to avoid the temptation his men also half to overcome it though they fail costing them their lives.
Anywise Odysseus makes it home to Ithaca and to his wife over a long and straying journey and he overcame all of the temptations and the struggles capable person . This story shows that if a person who wants to do something and sets there mind to it is a very capable subject.
