December 11th, 2008 started out like an average work day for Eleanor Squillari, secretary for Mr. Bernie Madoff, at Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities.

Ruth was inquiring whether her sons had made it into the office; Eleanor informed her that they hadn’t, while in the back of her mind she kept thinking about Ruth’s strange voice. However, she didn’t question it but continued her day, going on her regular rounds.

She was interrupted by a big man in a trench coat walking in her direction, but she questioned him first. He responded by flashing his badge and yelling “F.B.I!” “What’s happening? Was someone kidnapped? ” she didn’t know where to start, but her confusion was resolved when Peter 's secretary walked over. Looking stunned, she said "They 're saying that Bernie was arrested for fraud." “No, that’s not true!” Eleanor replied, but Peter walked by and reaffirmed it.

I also took an assessment on Mindtools. I like that website. I hear what you are saying when you find yourself having negative emotions that sap your energy levels and can get me off track. I never used to be that emotional when I was younger. However, I am 50 and I feel I can off track real easily. When I was younger, I would let people say whatever they wanted and I would just hold it all in and never respond. Now that I am 50, when someone says something most times, I strke back as they say. It is good and bad. I feel keeping your emotions in is very unhealthy. On the otherhand, always speaking your mind can be get you in to some deep waters. I am learning to control my emotions, but it is much easier said then done right? I would

I, personally, do not think the relevance of a wicked problem changes just because you view the problem through a different cultural lens. Granted, there are wicked problems that are regional or organizational specific. Focusing on global wicked problems, though, means that these issues are relevant to at least a large portion of the world. Some of these global wicked problems include economic, environmental, demographic, and governmental concerns (The United Nations, n.d.). These issues are truly wicked and effect all of us as citizens of this planet.

In 2007, Conrad Black, a prominent journalist, publisher, and investor was convicted of three counts of fraud and one count of obstruction of justice.

In Richard Powers’ novel, Gain, he intertwines two fictional stories to analyze the growth of large corporation in America and the deterioration of the individual as a potential result. He tells the story of the rise of a family soap making business, J. Clare and Sons, into a large-scale corporation over a span of 150 years.

Cohn was speaking to his brother Ed on the phone. "'Sorry I can't run with you today, I'm all tied up. How about tomorrow morning at 7:00?"
