From the start, they were working on the ship as fast as they could. Beta and Mu wanted to be far from Earth when someone found out that they had defied the rules, it was a surprise that they had been able to stay there for 6 days without someone checking on them. Although, in the worst-case scenario Beta had come up with that was because the GA had sent out a unit to arrest them for insubordination. But now they were starting to get more troubled with the situation; the ship was getting better every day, but they were quickly running out of food. After all, originally their food supplies had been meant to last two months for two people. With all five of them and the fact that Gamma hadn’t had time to plan a trip to Red Restina for a trip to buy groceries, they had already been half-way through them when the two agents had joined them.
They would have about twenty days before they would run out of food. Then they would have to risk it and take the shields down when someone went to look something from outside and they didn’t want to get to that. So there was forming some tension in the ship.
Beta never spoke much when Camilla was around, which made Camilla think he knew more than she did. And or course, she didn’t feel like he had any right to keep things from her in her own home – because that’s what Smith was to her now. She had no other place she could even see herself belonging to. Mu kept glancing around every now and then when his wrist computer vibrated suddenly. Gamma kept trying to keep everyone happy and was spending most of his time running around the ship making sure all his friends felt that they were treated equally.
Finally, Beta stopped him one day on the hallway as he was on his way to see that Anette had had ...
... middle of paper ...
...a big deal. Beta couldn’t keep the laugh inside and let it out as loud as he could. This was brilliant. Gamma had exceeded all his guesses this time.
Few days later, they were finally finished with the ship. To celebrate, they ate most of what they had left for dinner and prepared to their escape the next day. They didn’t want to start Smith at night because he would be easier to notice; not only the signal showing their location, but also the invisibility shield worked better when it was reflecting the light of sun, because on night sky the shapes moved along the ship. Something about sunrays reflecting with a higher strength than when they took a detour to moon, Gamma hadn’t really been listening that well.
They took the one good night’s sleep they could be guaranteed. It wasn’t for certain that the neudroids wouldn’t follow after them when they left Earth.

It's inconceivable that you can't get a message off or that we didn't get a message off. However, we do know that we were in the water about 107 hours, therefore, next time we think that we would like to have a positive means, in case we went down, of somebody saying, "They're gone", somebody with us and tell the outside world about it.
... not adequately trained on the operation of the system. CDR Carlson should have informed CAPT Rogers that were serious concerns on the USS Sides that the plane was in fact a civilian airliner, instead of silently musing and holding on to that information himself. This breakdown in communication, the crew's inability to operate the system, and the combat tension that the crew was already maintaining, spelled doom for the Iranian Airbus.
Instead, they waited for it to come to them. That was why they ended up with

Throughout the course of American History, the U.S. government has mostly shown to be a reliable and stable pillar during major events happening domestically and internationally. It has displayed leadership, tenacity, and perseverance when making important legislation that would change the lives of all citizens in the United States. However, during the latter half of the 20th century, the government has shown to be susceptible to partisanship. This has been displayed when it is presented with a dilemma regarding decision making; when a political group refuses to negotiate on an issue, the whole U.S. government shuts down. Based on the recent developments in politics, the legislative design of the federal government has been shown to be seriously flawed; only by changing its structure can we guard against the partisanship which prevents our representatives and senators from serving the will of the citizens of the United States through compromise.
There was only so much food the group could bring with them on the lander. It was inevitable that they would eventually run out, especially when they found out they would probably be stuck on Rakhat. They tried eating the food on Rakhat, but they wanted to grow their own too. They wanted to grow the garden ...
Modern Canada has been subject to several different issues that have raised a number of troublesome and difficult circumstances, though one of the most notable being the 1980 and 1995 Referendums in Quebec. The province has provided its residence, and the larger national population, with a great source of conversation and controversy. The Parti Quécécois introduced both referendums, although the party was under different leadership: Réne Lévesque in 1980 and Jaques Parizeau in 1995. Both were strongly in favor of the provinces secession from Canada. For the citizens and politicians of Quebec during both Referendums, the results speak volumes about voter turnout and the true support for the potential movement – which looked to achieve provincial sovereignty. This paper will explore the strategic wording of each question and the sentiments that surrounded the goings-on around each individual referendum.
That was the only meal the guys liked. And they had just finished eating when they approached somewhere near ballad around nighttime and the titanic hit an iceberg and the ship started to sink. They dropped all of their food and were running around to try to get on lifeboats. The Titanic's radio call sign was: MGY. The ship immediately started to fill with water. That is when everyone panicked! They had lifeboats on the ship and all of the ladies and the kids had to climb on too the lifeboats while the men stayed behind. Even though they only had 20 lifeboats 706 survived, that is including the crew. And if there were no lifeboats by the time you got up there you are basically wrecked. Because the water, itself, was about -2˚Fahrenheit and that is too cold to swim in which some people tried to including Jack Jill because he fell out of his
And one of the most stressful thing they faced, was when their fuel and oxygen were about to end, so there was a risk on their lives. The scientists on the ground debated on whether to go around the moon or come straight back. Around the moon, was gonna use less energy “fuel” but it was going to take longer and maybe they were going to lose oxygen. The straight back path, was going to take less time, but it was going to use more energy, since it was faster. The path they chose, was around the moon one, and they chose it because it use less energy, and people on earth, were trying to figure out a way so the oxygen will last longer. People on earth, were really concerned with the amount of power the spacecraft had, because they were afraid that the fuel won’t be enough for the astronauts to go back home “Earth”. To make the power last longer, they chose to make the spaceship go around the moon so less energy will be used, they also asked the astronauts to shut down the computer or anything they are not using and might use energy, to save it for them to go back to earth. The quality of air in the spacecraft was a concern, afraid that the astronauts won’t have enough oxygen, so they will not survive, especially after they lost a huge amount of
It's been two days since the little mirror was handed to her, since she was shot into a dystopian dreamland, which apparently held the earths future in its hands. Emmy glanced at the mirror again, for about the 50th time that morning. Her reflection was not there, which meant that the world she was in right now had not turned into reality. (yet) She had been placed in a small, chemical white cell room which contained only a small, also chemical white bed and a red plant. A plant. Not even a toilet, or something you could deposit your body waste in. Shit. Emmy thought. I really have to pee. She got up and walked/ran to the door, which did not have a door handle. Great. She was about to start pounding on it when there was a knock from the other side. The door slid open and Emmy had to quickly step back to avoid getting squashed. A tall figure appeared at the doorway...
I feel the lush red carpet underneath my elegant heels and smile as cameras rush up to snap pictures of the slow procession. I slowly walk into the large hall of my very first Hollywood premiere. A colleague of mine sweeps over with a large grin on her face.
