...Dresden Myers. He is of a stocky build but do not mistaken him for being slow . He's not supernaturally strong but strong for a person of his build. His powers consist of being able to project sound waves from his palms . He uses headphones to amplifie his ability. He projects what he hears in his headphones through his hands and the greater the bass is the more powerful the sound wave is. Boooom! As I got launched out of a Warehouse looking down at the street below me I thought to myself how did I end up in this position. Okay let me backtrack some for you my name is Dresden Myers I am 19 years old and I am a superhero...okay maybe not an official superhero but I'm working my way up. I am what is know as a epic. an epic is a person with supernatural abilities the power varies each epic has their own unique power for instance some can fly others have super strength and then there are some like me. There are differnt levels on how powerful an epic can be the leveles go up to level 10. I have a very special power I can project sound waves through my palms and depending on weather I'm listen to music with some really wicked bass I can crank up the tempo on those waves. It's not much but it's something and I plan on making a name for myself in this city. So my pal Rodney is also an epic but his power is really unique he can see all the wave links between all elctronical devices which makes it easy for him to gather information about gangs and their activity. tonight he had...

...expanding each and every day. From online education to Social networking, Social Web has become a part of everyone’s life some way, somehow. We are now able to share websites, share photos, and use Social networking as a friend locating tool, free of charge. With all of the options and choices we have available, we can do just about any day-to-day function if we have a computer with a web browser. What is Social Web? The Social web is a specified term for the World Wide Web as a kind of Social Media. The term is currently used to describe how people socialize or interact with each other throughout the web. The Social Web mostly refers to Social networking, MySpace for example, and content-sharing sites (which also offer a Social networking functionality) within Web 2.0. These Social websites are mostly formed around the connections of people of the same interest, but there are several theories that specify exactly how this formation works. There are for example said to be “people focus” websites such as Bebo, Facebook, and MySpace, that focus of social interaction often by making the user create an online identity and a profile. There is also socializing on the web that is typified by “hobby focus”. For example, if one is interested in photography and wants to share this with like-minded people, then there are photography websites such as Flikr, Kodak Gallery, and Photobucket. I just love the fact that there are so many social networking sites to choose from all...

I'm a real positive person, but.. I mean, can you imagine.. I mean, you don't know what can happen from day to day, when you think about it in your mind. I mean, what would happen if I walked out that door and the door closed and as the door closed, it slammed shut, and no matter what you did, you could not open the door and you knew that you would never be able to look into my eyes again and you'd never be able to hear my voice again and you'd never be able to feel my touch again." (her answer) Ok, right here is where she starts going, "I don't like this door business at all." (you) And at this time you just reassure her.. "ok, alright sweetheart, you're right.

Its madness...” Shows ignorant view of mental patients. The use of dialogue in the play conveys Lewis progression and personal transformation. 4. A sign of his progression is seen in his development of relationships with the patients, i.e. Julie? Kissing her passionately and stuff. 5. Dialogue creates tension during Lewis’ altercation with Lucy where she forces him to choose between Cosi or Moratorium committee, Lewis chooses Cosi, “Mozart.

...for rights for African American there is always that gap of equality and some areas the struggle still exist. The stories of African Americans are all in some way related to each other due to the nature in which they were assimilated into. They were treated as property at one point in time and nothing else yet they still tried to keep a “family” atmosphere. African Americans have made their way to freedom, but have been left with a heavy burden of their ancestor’s slavery. Would they ever be seen as anything but slaves brought unwilling from Africa to the United States to be enslaved and be servants to the White Man? Those questions can be answered by looking at the history of African Americans and how they have become great leaders in this country like our President. Today many may say we don't have slavery in some point that statement is true but to some extent it it is not. Just take into consideration Booker T. Washington and W.E.B Du Bois two amazing people but yet were oppressed and mistreated because of the color they were. Yes we may have gotten a black president but to me that hasn't even made a dent in the inequality that still exist. Many of us have seen all the horrible things said about President Obama and how he isn't a real african american and his birth certificate was false...

...environment because there is no disposal method that will really help eliminate the problem. While reusing them is the first step, most people either don't or can't based on store policies. They are not durable enough to stand up to numerous trips to the store so often the best that citizens can do is reuse them when following pooper scooper laws. * The biggest problem with this is that once they have been soiled the end up in the trash, which then ends up in the landfill or burned. Either solution is very poor for the environment. Burning emits toxic gases that harm the atmosphere and increase the level of VOCs in the air while landfills hold them indefinitely as part of the plastic waste problem throughout the globe. * Plastic Bag Litter * Even when citizens try to manage their plastic bag disposal wind plays a role in carrying them away as litter. This litter is not biodegradable and thus where it lands it tends to stay for long period of time. A bag that is eventually ripped to shreds from high winds or other factors doesn't disappear but instead is spread in smaller amounts throughout the area. This can cause more problems as these smaller pieces are carried away through storm drains and often end up in the waterways. * Plastic bag litter is often also the result of human laziness. The plastic bag might make for a good carry on to the beach for the day but once all of the pretzels and chips are consumed an estimated one in three consumers simply allow the bag to disappear...

The next price you get will likely be unbeatable. Follow through anyway just to be safe. With used cars, you will want to find two nearly identical cars at different dealerships. Follow the process above, though you might have to go back and forth a few times. If you don't give your last name or phone number, they'll feel extra compelled to give you a reason to come back. Dealerships would rather have you be their customer than someone else's, no matter how little they make on the deal. Also, you'll be better off doing business in person.
