Libya: Providing urgent medical care in Sirte
October 4, 2011
MSF finally managed to deliver medicines and medical supplies to Sirte on 3 October, which is at the heart of the current fighting. For the last ten days, MSF has attempted to deliver aid to Sirte where, according to doctors in the town, the healthcare situation has continued to deteriorate.
"They say that their hospital is overrun with wounded and they aren't always able to respond to other gynaecological or paediatric emergencies, or treat people suffering from chronic conditions", said Dr MégoTerzian, emergency response co-ordinator for MSF. "Moreover, they have to deal with cuts in power and water and a lack of urgent medical supplies. They need anaesthetics, antibiotics, analgesics and blood for transfusions", added Dr Mégo Terzian.
Initially, due to the fighting, the MSF team based in Misrata could only deliver medicines to a small town 10km away from Sirte. Since 3 October, MSF has managed to send medicines and medical supplies to Sirte itself, notably an oxygen concentrator and wound dressing materials.
Emergency treatment was taking place at medical health posts close to the front lines of Sirte and Beni Walid. So a medical health centre was set up in an old holiday home, 50km from Sirte. MSF has provided the centre with logistical support, medicines and medical supplies and organised first aid training. Once they are stabilised, the injured are taken by ambulance or helicopter to Misrata or Tripoli where the closest hospitals with surgical capacity are located.
In the Kasr Ahmed hospital in Misrata, an MSF surgical team looks after the urgent and wounded cases. It also looks after prisoners of war who are being detained in local prisons and moved to this hospital for surgical operation.
Another consequence of the fighting which is taking place on both sides of Misrata is that civilians are fleeing the strongholds of the old regime, like Sirte and Beni Walid. Some are heading to Tripoli and others are seeking refuge around Misrata or joining camps for internally displaced people in Kaddayia, Al Hicha, Wachka... MSF is monitoring the situation in these camps to ensure medical access for these displaced people. Notably, the town of Al Hicha has opened a camp for 2000 people where MSF is supporting the Libyan doctors by providing medicines.
Other areas of MSF activity in Libya
MSF has teams in hospitals in Yefren and Zintan in the west of Libya, where they are providing medical supplies and drugs. MSF is also providing mental health support to people affected by the fighting.
In Misrata, MSF is providing medical care, including post-operative care, in many prisons in the town and offering mental health support to detainees, mostly soldiers who have been taken prisoner. In Misrata, MSF psychologists play a supervisory role and give training to Libyan pyschologists. They are also holding consultations within the community.
Finally, medical consultations, mental health care and the distribution of essential goods make up the various kinds of aid being offered to migrants sheltering in sites in Tripoli and around.

Not having the use of your volume buttons can cause some headache. Some of the functions that it can make difficult are: listening to music, conversation volume, and ringtone volume. It's usually not the button itself that is bad, more than likely it's the flex cable connecting the buttons to the motherboard. This flex cable also supports other functions in your iPhone such as the headphone jack and the ring/vibrate switch. If you leave this malfunction untreated, you can expect to lose functionality in these other areas as well.
iBroke always have the parts on hand to fix this malfunction right away, so when your phone arrives it gets fixed and shipped back within 24 hours. If you have any questions with this repair feel free to give us a call!

QUOTE: "We look forward to great things ahead knowing that God has a great purpose to transform our society. The church in Uganda is going to be a catalyst of the gospel, and you will be known throughout the world as a missionary church that's sending the gospel to other nations." —Hugh Layzell, who founded the first Pentecostal church in Uganda 50 years ago, during a celebration last week that commemorated the church's anniversary. Layzell and his wife, Audrey, left Canada and founded Makerere Full Gospel Church in 1960. According to the Daily Monitor, there are now more than 1,500 Pentecostal churches in Uganda. Many of them took part in the weeklong celebration.

My flag is one that money did not buy, yet it was obtained at a high price. My husband, a decorated Army paratrooper for the 101st Airborne Division, died of cancer in 1991. The herbicide Agent Orange, which was sprayed during the Vietnam War, played a role in his death. He served in Vietnam from 1966-68.
The flag covered his casket and was removed in a special ceremony in which a military color guard folded it into a compact triangle. A trumpeter played taps, and a three-volley rifle salute followed. One of the color guard members presented the flag to me on behalf of the president of the United States.
It's a ritual military families know so well.
I felt a sense of pride that day and a great love for my country because of this sacred symbol of democracy. Memorial Day always reminds me that the flag was given to me and other military families to show the special place of honor our country has for veterans.
Before my husband was lowered into the cold, dark grave, his flag was a final covering of love from his country, like a warm blanket at bedtime to say, "Goodnight." All of the honor that flag represents was transferred to him. The red represents courage, the white purity of purpose, the blue suggests loyalty and unity.
Every veteran, whether he or she was a private or a four-star general, receives the same burial flag. Race, creed, color, gender or political preference matter not. The flag truly represents our nation — one nation.
In the Iraq war, more than 1,630 soldiers have died, and surely more will fall before the fighting ends. Each soldier's casket is covered with a burial flag that is then given to his or her next of kin.
On Memorial Day, as we see flags at memorials from Arlington National Cemetery to small-town cemeteries and courthouses across the USA, know that veterans' families offer many of these flags as a final salute.
I've come to realize my husband would not want his flag tucked away on a bookshelf. He would want his flag to wave in the breeze and for all of its colors to unfurl in a magnificent display. I've decided not to put his flag back on the shelf; I will donate it for local memorial services. This Memorial Day, I will let his flag go free.

Good 3.6 /5 from 298 reviews
The hotel has a great location, beach front in the middle of Leblon and 2 blocks from the new Metro Line 4. We stayed during the Olympics and were pleasantly surprised when we were upgraded to a beach front suite (although we did pay a premium rate for the Olympics). Breakfast is definitely one of the strengths - it is very tasty and it's served in the hotel restaurant which has a view of the beach. The rooftop pool was small, but it had great views as well. Overall we had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend.
Very friendly, professional, and accommodating staff. Beach front views and amazing view from rooftop pool/bar area. High quality breakfast buffet included with the room. A bit quieter neighborhood than Copacabana or even Ipanema but it's probably the safest area in Rio.
Very old and bad maintained hotel. Air conditioner not working properly, elevators very slow and at least two of three ones many times not working, very dirty and bad maintained bathroom. Worse customer service I ever have seen. Probably because the hotel is very well located, and for this reason is always booked.
The location is fantastic. It is right in front of the beach and Leblon is a great area. For the rate we paid I would stay there again. It is a good bang for your buck. The biggest issues are that the elevators are run down, slow and not the most trustworthy. The bathrooms are ok but the showers are problematic. They have a major draining issue. The pool is tiny and the photos are misleading but the bartender makes a great caipirihna.
The Hotel is located in Leblon, the best neighborhood of Rio, with the best Beach (the continuation of Ipanema). The hotel is due for major renovation!! The rooms are fine and the Beds have excellent Mattress... The Water pressure in the shower very weak. In other rooms there is no drainage...go figure. No tissue papers!!! Free WiFi, but at very very low speed. Movie on TV all in Portuguese... nothing in English. Breakfast in generous and plentiful. The Hotel provides with chairs, umbrellas and towels on the Beach. Note: the price quoted by Hotel.com is incorrect. the hotel charges a surcharge of 10% (Resort Fee).

Lincoln (1858) said, "If we could first know where we are, and whither we are tending, we could then better judge what to do, and how to do it". Even more than his essential trait and skill competencies, Lincoln carefully practiced diversity through his great vision. During the war, Lincoln delegated many policy initiatives to his Cabinet. However, he led the nation and resolutely achieved many goals from the Republican platform. Through his economic leadership, the United States passed the Legal Tender Act, a National Banking Act, a transcontinental railroad via the Pacific Railroad Act, Homestead Acts, and a Land Grant College Act. While leading the nation to the end of a great Civil War, Lincoln shepherded the great vision he always believed in from his early rise in politics to the Presidency. He transformed the nation from subsistence farming to the beginnings of an economic dynamo, all with great care in furthering the common person and providing a chance, an opportunity to better oneself. (Gienapp, 2002)
Tichy (1986) wrote about transformational leadership and a quote seems to speak almost directly on Lincoln when he said, "This vision of the future must be formulated in such a way that it will make the pain of changing worth the effort" (p. 122). As Gienapp (2002) reiterated about Lincoln, "…his leadership demonstrated the combination of resolute ends and flexible means that would be the hallmark of his presidency" (p. 92). Reinforced by Tichy (1986):
The essence of transformational leadership is the capacity to adapt means to ends—to shape and reshape institutions and structures to achieve broad human purposes and moral aspirations…the secret of transforming leadership is the capacity of leaders to have their goals clearly and firmly in mind, to fashion new institutions relevant to those goals, to stand back from immediate events and day-to-day routines and understand the potential and consequences of change. (p. 187)
At the height of his political life (Abe was cut short on leading the nation through the Reconstruction) Abraham Lincoln was stopped by an assassin's bullet. Nevertheless, Lincoln's leadership, morals, values, vision, and immense skill saved the United States from certain disaster. In preserving the Union and abolishing the abhorrent practice of slavery, Abraham Lincoln guided the country to a noble place in history.

Great Cruise on Enchantment of the Seas
Sail Date: February 02, 2015
Reviewed: 2 years ago
Traveled As: Family (older children)
Room Type: Suite
Having taken a Royal Caribbean cruise 8 years ago and then several Carnival cruises, our family of 3 decided to go RC again. We had a great time even though it was only 4 nights. Food was excellent with a lot of choices, but Anytime dining wasn't as flexible as we wanted since we could only make reservations for all 4 nights for 7:45. We did however get the exact same table every night because of the same reservation time. We loved our Server and Assistant server and developed a fun relationship with them over the 4 nights onboard. Our 21 year old son had a great time speaking Spanish with our Columbian born Assistant Server Ivon! The only problem with our dining time is that it was right in the middle of all the shows, so we either had to leave early or arrive late which wasn't fun. There were lots of activities for folks of all ages. The ship was bigger than the Carnival cruise line ships and the crowd was much more mature. We missed one of our stops due to rough seas, but we enjoyed getting to Nassau earlier. Great trip! Will cruise Royal Caribbean and Enchantment of the Seas again!

I am not against it (I would have been -1). I just think it is not such a great idea, so as it stands, I do not support it and don't plan to help. BTW, I have been regularly adding features to 4.1.x, excluding the features which change existing behavior or lead to API changes (of course, given your recent posts, I guess you don't really know what occurred in tomcat-dev in the last 2 months). Please read the commits and the changelog. > If this is what you want then perhaps you should propose a VOTE to freeze all work on > Tomcat 4 except for bug fixes. And I mean all work. If the community votes to do that > then I will stop asking and perhaps go review the rules for revolutionaries. Glenn, I do not understand what is it that is not in 4.1 that you would want to add. Costin posted a comment the last time you mentioned 4.2 (I think it was one month ago), and I fully agree with it. If you want to make a proposal, including a revolution, please do so. As is, my personal opinion is that having a common j-t-catalina between 4.x and 5.x is not doable from a technical standpoint (given that we have limited development resources), and even not desirable, as some API changes will be needed to make Catalina faster (right now, mapping and auth are really slow, and will need access to j-t-c/util objects to have acceptable speed and GC behavior). Another possibility, given that the API 2.4 is close from 2.3, is that we release j-t-catalina as part of a 4.2 release, and advertise it as supporting servlets 2.3.

By John W. Stewart and John W. Stewart,SPECIAL TO THE SUN
July 4, 2005
Brendan McKinney, making his first major challenge at the top spot in the Maryland Amateur Stroke Play championship, shot 1-under-par 70 at Mount Pleasant Golf Course yesterday to grab the 36-hole lead at 139. First-round leader Kirk Lombardi came back to the field with a 73 and is tied at 140 with recent Towson University graduate Chris Baloga, who shot 71 in the second round. Phil Fairbanks, third last year, used a share of the day's low round, 69, for a two-round total of 141, followed by Moose Brown and Spring Publinx winner Ki Moon at 142. Brian Woods also shot 69 and is at 143, tied with Larry Storck and Wilbert Lynn III. There were only four rounds below par during the day, and 11 players are within five strokes of the lead.
Williams recovering from minor stroke, friends say
December 27, 1991
Hall of Famer Ted Williams suffered a minor stroke recently but is recovering nicely at his Florida home, friends said yesterday."In a general conversation I had with him yesterday, he said he had a little stroke," said a friend who asked not to be identified. "I asked him what the results were. He said, 'It didn't amount to anything.' ""He said he was going to have some treatment where they would open the artery. He had a clogged artery. He wasn't concerned about it at all. Apparently he had no effect from it."
Andre Braugher's TV portrayal raises awareness about stroke
By Jennifer E. Mabry and Jennifer E. Mabry,Sun Staff
February 15, 1998
Andre Braugher, who portrays Detective Frank Pembleton on television's popular police drama "Homicide," was honored by the Maryland Heart Association at its annual Heart Ball at the Hyatt Regency Baltimore. The reason? His realistic and compelling portrayal of a stroke survivor.Braugher told me: "I'm glad the portrayal has had a positive effect, and given broader understanding to the effects of stroke -- especially among African-Americans."Among the 750 attendees at the gala, which had as its theme Monte Carlo's Grand Prix, were Brian King, chairman of the board of the Maryland Affiliate of the American Heart Association, and his wife, Anne Lynn King; and ball co-chairs Chris Thomson, executive director of St. Joseph Medical Center; Dr. Judy A. Reitz, senior vice president of operations at Johns Hopkins Hospital; Bill Balke, a Hopkins cardiologist, and his wife, Denise Quandt, vice president of provider relations at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Migraine affecting vision is tied to stroke risk
By Erika Niedowski and Erika Niedowski,SUN STAFF
February 4, 2005
Women with migraines that cause vision changes are more likely to suffer a stroke than those without a history of the severe headaches, researchers reported yesterday. Scientists at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta found that women whose migraines were accompanied by vision loss had a 70 percent greater risk of stroke than women who don't get migraines. Women who saw lines or spots shortly before or during their migraines had a 25 percent increased risk.
New hope that strokes need not be disabling
By Sara Engram
September 29, 1996
DR. MARIAN LAMONTE, director of the University of Maryland Medical Center's new Brain Attack Team, knows the frustration of living between the cutting edge of medical knowledge and the need to spread the word.The calls come in from hospitals in the area, describing a person who has come in with stroke symptoms and asking whether the team can help. Too often it turns out that the call comes after those crucial hours when new therapies can make a huge difference in a patient's ability to recover -- leaving Dr. LaMonte to wonder how much better that person's quality of life would have been had help come sooner.
Jane `Bessie' Preis, 94, raised 13 children despite stroke
By Frederick N. Rasmussen and Frederick N. Rasmussen,SUN STAFF

text:
What will happen to the countless humans throughout history who, after being resurrected, have to give an account of their lives before the Eternal's great white throne? Will those who did not know of or completely understand the Gospel be finally given a FULL chance at repentance and salvation? On the other hand, will they, even those who never even heard about Jesus or read the Bible, be summarily thrown into some eternal HELL to suffer torment forever?
What special tree, which existed in the Garden of Eden, reappears at the end of the Bible?
The Millennium
The Millennium, lasting 1,000 years, will be the greatest time of peace and prosperity the world has ever experienced. Jesus will rule the earth as King of Kings and Lord of Lords with the help of those converted humans who were changed into immortal spirit beings in the first resurrection (Revelation 11:10 - 12, 1Thessalonians 4:16 - 17, 1Corinthians 15:51 - 53, etc.). The capital of God's Kingdom on earth will be Jerusalem (Revelation 20:9 - in the KJV it is referred to as the "beloved city").
The nature of ALL animals will be changed during this period. Those whose diet consisted of eating meat (carnivore) will be changed to eating strictly plants (herbivores). All animals will be rendered docile and made to live in peace and harmony both with each other and man. The prophet Isaiah foretold of this unique time when he wrote the following.
6. Also the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the cub lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them . . . 8. And the suckling child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the viper's den. 9. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain . . . (Isaiah 11:6, 8 - 9, Holy Bible Faithful Version throughout).
Satan loosed one last time
At the start of the Millennium an angel is commanded to arrest Satan and throw him into the most secure prison in history. From his spiritual place of restraint the devil is unable to deceive anyone (except himself) for 1,000 years (Revelation 20:1 - 3).
At the end of the 1,000 years the Devil is allowed out of his spiritual prison (Revelation 20:3). The great Deceiver then does what he always does - deceiving beings into sinning against God. His third and final effort to wrest control of the Universe for himself, however, fails miserably. The Eternal's adversary and his human army are dealt with in a swift fashion as they surround the world's capital city of Jerusalem.
7. Now when the thousand years have been completed, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison; 8. And he shall go out to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog . . . 9. Then I saw them go up upon the breadth of the earth and encircle the camp of the saints, and the beloved city; and fire came down from God out of heaven and consumed them; (Revelation 20:7 - 9)
Bible evidence strongly suggests that Lucifer will not be allowed to continued living but will be given the ultimate penalty for his disobedience - an end to his existence (for more info see our article "Will the devil live FOREVER?").
The White Throne Judgment
What happens to the countless BILLIONS of humans who never heard the name of Jesus or never heard of or understood the Gospel, or believed a somewhat twisted version of the Bible from the world's religions? Are they LOST forever?
The second resurrection, known as the Great White Throne judgment, is God's way of offering a FULL chance at salvation to humans who were not a part of the first resurrection. Their minds will be opened to the truth found in Scripture and they will be given their first real opportunity to repent of their sins.
11. Then I saw a great white throne and the one Who was sitting on it, from Whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and no place was found for them. 12. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God; and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged out of the things written in the books . . . (Revelation 20:11 - 12).
The Bible hints that these humans will be allowed to live, again in the flesh, for up to 100 years (Isaiah 65:17 - 20) so that they can learn the full truth and build character by a life of overcoming their human nature. Those who are obedient will eventually be written in the Lamb's Book of Life and turned into a spirit being (Revelation 20:12).
The Second Death
All humans are destined to die at least once (1Corinthians 15:22). However, for a relatively few, dying a second time will be their end. God's plan includes mercifully putting to death FOREVER (not tormenting them in some Hell) all humans who, in his eyes, understand the truth but knowingly and willfully reject it. The Bible calls this the second death (Revelation 20:14 - 15). The Apostle Paul wrote about those who were enlightened but who later rejected the truth.
4. For it is IMPOSSIBLE for those who were once enlightened, and who personally obtained the heavenly gift, and became partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5. And who have tasted the good Word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6. If they have fallen away, to renew them again unto repentance (Hebrews 6:4 - 6)
Based on the Bible, willful disobedience of the Eternal is referred to as the unpardonable sin.
A New Heaven, Earth and Jerusalem
When God has fulfilled his greatest goal, which is making as many humans as possible into his own spiritual image of character (Genesis 1:26), he will then turn to the much quicker task of remaking everything else.
1. Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away, and there was no more sea. 2. And I, John, saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband (Revelation 21:1 - 2, see also 3:12).
According to the end of the Bible, the Earth is destined to become the true center of the Universe! A New Jerusalem will be created and placed on the planet where the thrones of the Father and Christ will reside (verses 22 - 23). The Tree of Life, which first appeared in the Garden of Eden, will reappear in a New Jerusalem (Revelation 22:14).

Hey guys.
I have a couple questions I am confused about.
1. What method of skin bind do you preferably use and at what point in the rigging process do you bind the skin? I have Maya 2013, and noticed the new Heat Map method, but it gives me errors often.
2. Also, If I build controllers for the LEFT side only, how would I mirror these controllers for the RIGHT side, so you dont have to build them again? Similar to mirroring joints?
Thanks for any advice!

Chapter 3
Making Choices
"Hey,Scott?" Stiles looked to his friend while playing with a test tube."Can I ask you something?"
"yeah?" Scott fumbled with his fingers. "What is it?"
Stiles cleared his throat."You know Allison's cousin right..? Claire..?" He glanced at Mr. Harris, sitting at his desk.
He looked at Stiles,"Yeah I do,What about her?" Stiles looked away nervously."Stiles,What about Claire?"
"er,well,"he began,"I think we should,uhm,ya know...Tell her..ya know about your hairy situation?"
Scott stared at him,"What?"
Stiles coughed,"I think we should um. Tell her,It might make our situation a lil better you know? Maybe have someone on the inside with the hunters."
Scott thought about it for a moment."I don't think it'll be a good idea. I doubt she'd be much help,if anything it might make things difficult. We already have to be careful with Allison. It wouldn't be fair in a way."
Stiles rolled his eyes."Common man,I think it'd be a good idea. Allison doesn't know about wolves. Maybe her dad told Claire stuff about wolves maybe even her psycho aunt. "
"Stiles. I don't want you to go telling anyone about this,I-"Stiles interrupted him.
"Scott,trust me on this okay? I think she'll be a good person to have on our side plus you should let me 'cause owe me."
"fine. Okay have fun telling Derek then." Scott sighed.
"But I got you to protect me from the crazy wolf right buddy?" stiles grinned.
"Yeah Sure." Scott scoffed.
"You two,go ahead and go." Mr. Harris said picking up his things, The two of them hopped of the chairs and walked out of the class.
Stiles pulled out his phone and called Claire,it range a couple of times.
"Hey Stiles." She answered.
"Hey Claire its Stiles."He glanced at Scott.
"well duh it was on the caller ID,dork,Whats up?"
Stiles rolled his eyes,"Remember that video on Lydia's phone?"
There was silence.
"Yeah,I remember,some freaky wolf thing right?"
Stiles nodded."Well,You want some answers?"
"I do,I'm guessing though you might want something from me, right?"
"Depends..How much do you know bout your family?"
More Silence.
"Okay,Meet us at the lacrosse field?"
"On my way there. See ya."
he hung up.
"Stiles,I hope you didn't Screw us over." Scott bit his lip nervously.
"Tch,trust my abilities." Stiles grinned,I hope I made a good choice. He thought.
Claire sat down on the benches near the lacrosse field tapping her foot. She been waiting for
Stiles for about about half an hour.
"have I been stood up?",She asked herself."Ugh if hes not here in 10 minutes,I'm leaving,"
Sure enough after she had said that she saw Stiles Scott and another person who had seemed all too familiar.
"Hey,Didn't know this was gonna be a lil party,I would have brought pie or something." Claire said a hand on her hip.
Stiles chuckled as he glanced at Scott."Hey. and sorry I forgot to tell you Scott and Derek were coming with."
Derek turned to Stiles with an icy glare. He cleared his throat uncomfortably,and looked at Claire."Well. I guess the best way to do this is to make sure we can trust you."
She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms."Hmph. I haven't told anyone of that video. Shouldn't that be enough proof?
"Stiles this is the most idiotic idea you've had. This kid seems like a brat." Derek finally spoke,his eyes narrowing on her.
Claire's face turned red with anger."You have no right to judge dick-wad! You don't know me!"
Derek's jaw locked and started to walk towards her.
"Hey Stop it!" Scott stood in front of him."Claire,What do you know bout your family's past?"
Claire looked at them,She knew a lot. She knew how the Argent family back in the somethinhundreds used to hunt wolves,werewolves,she knew they were real,she had even knew Derek was one,But what she didn't know is if she should associate with them. The Enemy. If Stiles and Scott are good friends with Derek then ,maybe, they could find out who the Alpha is and kill it immediately.
And maybe grow closer to stiles I mean he seems nice enough.. She thought. No no mind in the game Claire. Don't tell them too much. Tell them enough,what they want to hear.
"I know about a lot of things,"She smirked,"I know about,,Old family legends fairy tales,like monsters...Wolves,"
Derek Stiles and Scott's eyes darted to her.
"The Wolf hunters, in the stories." She continued."They think wolves are, evil."Claire walked forward,"But me, I'm not afraid of the big bad wolves,Not their fault they are like that? Am I right?"
Scott shifted his eyes to his feet,Derek looked at him.
"But,they aren't just stories.. are they?"
Stiles looked at her then to Derek and Scott. "You know what Screw it. Derek and Scott are wolves there."
"STILES!" Scott and Derek yelled angerly.
"Well I'm a hunter in training. I knew Derek was a Wolf but you don't seem the type Scott."
It didn't seem to help the cause."You just told a hunter our Identity! Stiles your a damn moron!"
Scott was speechless.
"your a hunter!" Stiles yelled.
Claire pinched the bridge of her nose."Stop the yelling already,yes I'm a hunter but I'm not like the others. I can help You!"
Derek growled."Shut up Stiles,I knew this was bad !"
Scott finally spoke up,"Derek..I I think in a way this is good...we can be a step ahead of them.."
"I still don't trust her."He grit his teeth,
She looked to Stiles"You believe me right?"
Stiles glanced at them and nodded."Yeah,I do."
Derek glared at both Stiles and Claire."I'm leaving,before I tear one of you in half." He walked away
"Sorry bout Derek. He must have not used his flea shampoo this morning." Stiles joked. Scott rolled his eyes.
"uhm okay then,So...Allison s dating a wolf,wow how come she didn't tell me?" Claire looked at Scott
"well,,,she kinda..doesn't know.."He rubbed the back of his neck.
"Didn't know? Oh danger." She grinned."I like it. Don't worry Scotty Boy I won't tell anyone,okay?"
Scott nods."Thank you,"
"well this is awesome,so no secrets?" Stiles asked.
Claire nodded once with a slight smile."Yeah no secrets. Lets get out of here."The three of them walked back to Stiles' jeep.
Perfect,They think I'm part of their little group secret. I just need to get them to trust me.. Claire looked at Stiles. I won't say anything to Kate yet though..I need to play my cards right. Then..when no ones expecting it..I'll make my move.
Well I hope that was good. Please review I'm not sure if I should keep going with this.

Born and raised in Sydney, Australia.
Been playing guitar since I was 8years of age, studied music all the way through high school. Recently completing my Bachelor Of Contemporary Music (which includes music business, sound production, performance , arrangement skills and music theory).
In the beginning , to me music was about loud guitars, heavy drums and meaningful lyrics. I have since opened my eyes to the world of EDM and widened my musical taste and genres.
I love Guns N Roses, Metallica and Led Zeppelin ... Just as much as I like Skrillex, Timmy Trumpet, Alesso and Tiesto.
At the end of the day, music is my life. Whether is recording an Ed Sheehan type song, or creating a Alesso styled banger... MUSIC IS MUSIC. <3

The film is set in June 1905; the protagonists of the film are the members of the crew of the Potemkin, a battleship of the Imperial Russian Navy's Black Sea Fleet. Eisenstein divided the plot into five acts, each with its own title:
Act I: Men and Maggots
The scene begins with two sailors, Matyushenko and Vakulinchuk, discussing the need for the crew of the Potemkin to support the revolution taking place within Russia. While the Potemkin is anchored off the island of Tendra, off-duty sailors are sleeping in their bunks. As an officer inspects the quarters, he stumbles and takes out his aggression on a sleeping sailor. The ruckus causes Vakulinchuk to awake, and he gives a speech to the men as they come to. Vakulinchuk says, "Comrades! The time has come when we too must speak out. Why wait? All of Russia has risen! Are we to be the last?" The scene cuts to morning above deck, where sailors are remarking on the poor quality of the meat for the crew. The meat appears to be rotten and covered in worms, and the sailors say that "even a dog wouldn't eat this!" The ship's doctor, Smirnov, is called over to inspect the meat by the captain. Rather than worms, the doctor says that the insects are maggots, and they can be washed off prior to cooking. The sailors further complain about the poor quality of the rations, but the doctor declares the meat edible and ends the discussion. Senior officer Giliarovsky forces the sailors still looking over the rotten meat to leave the area, and the cook begins to prepare borscht although he too questions the quality of the meat. The crew refuses to eat the borscht, instead choosing bread and water, and canned goods. While cleaning dishes, one of the sailors sees an inscription on a plate, which reads "give us this day our daily bread." After considering the meaning of this phrase, the sailor smashes the plate and the scene ends.
Act II: Drama on the Deck
All those who refuse the meat are judged guilty of insubordination and are brought to the fore-deck where they receive religious last rites. The sailors are obliged to kneel and a canvas cover is thrown over them as a firing squad marches onto the deck. The First Officer gives the order to fire, but in response to Vakulinchuk's pleas the sailors in the firing squad lower their rifles and the uprising begins. The sailors overwhelm the outnumbered officers and take control of the ship. The officers are thrown overboard, the ship's priest is dragged out of hiding, and finally the doctor is thrown into the ocean as 'food for the fish'.
Act III: A Dead Man Calls for Justice
The mutiny is successful but Vakulinchuk, the charismatic leader of the rebels, is killed. The Potemkin arrives at the port of Odessa. Vakulinchuk's body is taken ashore and displayed publicly by his companions in a tent with a sign on his chest that says "For a spoonful of soup" (Изъ-за ложки борща). The sailors gather to make a final farewell and praise Vakulinchuk as a hero. The people of Odessa welcome the sailors, but they attract the police.
Act IV: The Odessa Steps
The best-known sequence of the film is set on the Odessa steps, connecting the waterfront with the central city. A detachment of dismounted Cossacks forms a line at the top of the steps and march towards a crowd of unarmed civilians including women and children. The soldiers halt to fire a volley into the crowd and then continue their impersonal, machine-like advance. Brief sequences show individuals amongst the people fleeing or falling, a baby's pram rolling down the steps, a woman shot in the face, broken spectacles and the high boots of the soldiers moving in unison.
In retaliation, the sailors of the Potemkin decide to fire on a military headquarters with the guns of the battleship. Meanwhile, there is news that a squadron of loyal warships is coming to quell the revolt of Potemkin.
Act V: One Against All
The sailors of the Potemkin decide to go all the way and lead the battleship from the port of Odessa to face the fleet of the Tsar. Just when the battle seems inevitable, the sailors of the formerly loyal ships incredibly refuse to open fire on their comrades, externalizing with songs and shouts of joy their solidarity with the mutineers and allowing them to pass unmolested through the fleet, waving the red flag.

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! I went to see Dr. White the first time last August. I scheduled a "skin care consultation", and was asked to bring in what I was currently using. We went through all my skin care products to see what would work toward getting rid of my sunspots (my face was COVERED), and what I could possibly switch out of. She was completely respectful of my "pocketbook" and spending and we added just one product to my litany of dayspa products that weren't really doing the trick. I stuck to the added treament and saw some results but nothing a laser treatment could do, which is what I'd read and secretly knew. I mustered the strength and got a BBL treatment and profractoinal treatment in May. Probably not the smartest decision with summer around the corner but i did it anyway. OH my GOSH! It's been 5 weeks since the treatment, and I have people telling me I look 15 years younger. I am carefully about wearing sunscreen DAILY now - just going to work, ladies, not just for going out in the sun - and my jaw line is tighter, my pores are smaller, and NO spots! Thank you, Dr. White and staff!
Dr. Anne White in Winston Salem NC is really good. I go to see her for Botox and she does an excellent job. My friends go to see her too.
Excellent Cosmetic Surgeon. Pleasant, comforting, knowledgable staff. Top-notch office.

All things energy, from solar and wind power to efficiency and off-grid living.
Gore Says this is the Year for Action on Climate
Former Vice President Al Gore addressed the Senate Foreign Relations Committee last Wednesday, telling them that America needs a climate bill this year, especially since there's supposed to be an international negotiation in Copenhagen in December. Gore already has a bold plan — to reach a goal of 100 percent clean electricity within 10 years. And with President Barack Obama in office, this may be the year to go through with it.
On Gore's Repower America website, you can find the detailed plan on how he believes America could reach this goal through use of plug-in cars, clean electricity and, of course, renewable energies. The first thing on the list — just like in Obama's inauguration speech — asks for a little help from everyone. So, start by looking at the site, and then think about following the advice on the site by writing to your elected officials
