Junes script month
June's Script of the Month
June's Script of the Month, selected by the WGG Diversity Committee, is REP, a half-hour dramedy written by Maryan Haye. She is a Somali-Canadian writer and actor from Toronto who has taken part in writing workshops at TIFF and The CFC, and is an alumnus of the OYA Emerging Filmmakers Program.
REP revolves around a chatty, Somali-heavy community of modern-day Toronto, 16-year-old Layla Dahir and her family. They quickly realize that one's reputation means everything. Subsequent seasons will capture the POV of a different teen, their family, and the unique challenges they face.
"Maryan Haye's script REP is a pleasure to read." says veteran member, Tom Lynch, who worked with Maryan to polish the screenplay. "An authentic look at life as a teenager coming of age within an immigrant community is difficult territory for the most experienced writers. A wonderful mix of drama and comedy, much like life itself, Ms. Haye handles the material with nuance, insight and originality. The vibrant world she has created with deliciously flawed and wonderful characters has me wanting to read more. Her pilot will be a wonderful series and her talent will be a welcome addition to any writers' room. Maryan Haye is the real deal."
"I'm absolutely honoured that the dramedy pilot REP was selected as Script of the Month," says Maryan. "I think it's the right time to have a show depicting folks with identities like my own, and I'd love to help bring my experiences to television!"
Congratulations Maryan!

DALLAS, TX- A little over a decade ago, I found myself seated in a small lecture room at the University of Texas, about to begin a semester-long study of "Curriculum and Instruction." A short, round woman in her late 40s, with gray hair down to the middle of her back, began handing round a stack of syllabi as the 20 or so students took our seats in the room's semi-circular rows.
Talk about bursting your bubble.
I loved that movie. Glancing around the room, I got the feeling I wasn't the only one whose mind was replaying the highlights: a group of inner-city kids caught in a world of poverty and violence; a new teacher determined to reach her students; the poetry of Dylan Thomas, the lyrics of Bob Dylan. Ninety minutes and a couple of rap songs later, the teacher has transformed their lives by merely changing her jacket and tossing out a few candy bars.
Ten years and roughly 1,500 teenagers later, I feel qualified to attest to the truth of this axiom. Teaching is not at all simple. And I empathize with Will Okun's plight.
I did, after all, spend my first three years as a teacher in a school with 75 percent minority students, most labeled "economically disadvantaged" or "at risk." I am intimately familiar with the struggle of capturing their attention and the even more monumental task of keeping it.
Even the past seven years, when I've been in schools that were 90 percent white, the near daily battle to engage students in books has remained one of the few constants in my career.
Mr. Okun and I have more than just our personal anecdotes to support this conclusion. Mr. Okun cites a study by the National Endowment for the Arts released late last year. This survey of the reading habits of Americans yielded distressing results for book lovers and educators alike: Asked if they had read any book, short story, play or poem, not assigned for school or work, in the past year, the overwhelming answer from respondents was no.
Across gender, region, ethnicity and age groups, reading is in decline. Most disturbing for the high school English teacher is the data showing that young adults experienced a 55 percent greater drop in readership over a 12-year period than the adult population as a whole, the most significant decline of any group analyzed.
In his summary of the report, NEA's president cites the growth of digital media as a major factor in the loss of readers. While spending on books had begun to drop, spending on electronic media such as audio, video and computer software had quadrupled, highlighting the digital direction in which our society is headed.
Unfortunately, the NEA study also demonstrated that with lower reading rates, one also finds lower participation in community cultural and civic events. Thus the societal dilemma: How do we encourage reading, which appears to be essential for a vital society, in a time when other forms of media are more appealing to our young people?
Mr. Okun's proposed solution is to update his reading list, modernize his selections. While I agree that more "high interest" works need to find inclusion in our curriculums to help encourage reluctant readers, I am a long way from, as he suggests, throwing out the teaching of British literature altogether.
I have always thought it my responsibility as an educator to guide my students through the unfamiliar in the hopes that they may grow as an individual, to give them more to relate to than that which they already know and to get them outside of their "bubbles" in order to broaden their perspectives and prepare them for a future that extends beyond the arbitrary borders of their hometown and outside the boundaries of their current experience.
If Mr. Okun thinks he can get more young people to read by offering them newer titles with characters closer to their age or circumstance, by all means, I offer him my sincerest best wishes; anything that will get a teen to read a book has to be a step in the right direction.
No disrespect to S.E. Hinton, but I'm not sure The Outsiders would have had quite the same effect.

UCSB To Honor Legendary Class
November 16, 2007 at 9:59 am by Chris Hoffman
With the Big West Championship all wrapped up, the #9 UCSB men's soccer team bids farewell to six seniors on Senior Night when the squad hosts UC Riverside at Harder Stadium, Saturday at 7 p.m.
Defenders Andy Iro and Greg Curry, midfielder Brennan Tennelle and forwards Andrew Proctor, Tino Nuñez and Tony Chinakwe will all take the Meredith Field pitch for their final regular season game in a Gaucho uniform. The stellar class helped lead Santa Barbara to the National Championship game in 2004 and the National Title in 2006 and is one of the program's most successful classes ever.
"It's bittersweet because we have a close working relationship with players day in and day out and we're sad they are leaving the program," Head Coach Tim Vom Steeg said. "But it's part of the process that you bring them in, graduate them and celebrate their accomplishments. This is the most accomplished class we've had here."
The Gauchos (12-3-3 overall, 9-1-1 in the Big West) hope to end the regular season on a high note heading into the NCAA Tournament and bring a six-game winning streak into the season finale. The streak began with a 2-1 road victory over the Highlanders (5-6-7, 2-4-5 Big West) on goals from junior midfielder Eric Avila and sophomore midfielder Ciaran O'Brien.
For UCR, a solid nonconference showing has not translated into conference success. Riverside owns just one win in its last eight contests, but has been able to squeeze out four ties during the stretch and has tied Cal Poly (10-3-4, 5-2-4 Big West), one of the Big West's best teams, twice this year. Currently sitting in fourth place in the league standings, the Highlanders hope that senior keeper Charles Alamo, the conference leader with 4.28 saves per game, can stifle the Gaucho offense.
Despite the recent success, Santa Barbara has given up the first goal in four straight matches, including the first two in Tuesday's 3-2 road win over conference rival Cal State Northridge (6-7-6, 2-5-4 Big West). UCSB's dynamic offense has been able to overcome the early holes the defense has put it in, but this is a trend the Gauchos would like to end heading into tournament play.
"I would rather give up an early goal than a goal late in the game," Vom Steeg said. "Early in the season we gave up late goals and they ended up hurting us. Our focus has been on finishing games, but we need to start them too."
All UCSB has left to play for is a chance to increase its seeding heading into the playoffs. In 2004, the Gauchos ended the season as the #1 team in the land, but were awarded the ninth seed, the highest in program history. This season, Santa Barbara's hopes are even higher. UCSB is not in the top eight in any of the polls, but is #7 in the NCAA's Ratings Percentage Index, a key factor the selection committee's seeding procedure. A top eight seed would guarantee the Gauchos home games until the quarterfinal round.
"We've been fighting for a top eight spot. It's always been a goal of ours," Vom Steeg said. "Having a buy in the first round means you can scout the team you will be playing. The second game is a huge advantage because you'll be playing at home and have scouted them."


A common question people ask is why does diabetes cause renal failure?
Kidney problems are relatively common in people with diabetes around 25% of diabetics have some form of kidney disease.
Renal failure caused by diabetes usually occurs slowly, over many years. There are 5 stages of Diabetic Kidney Disease that eventually lead to complete renal failure. Read about the 5 stages here.
When your blood sugar levels are high, the small blood vessels in your body become damaged. When the small vessels in the kidneys become damaged, this is the start of diabetic kidney disease. Your kidneys rely on these small vessels to keep it healthy and functioning properly.
Diabetes also causes nerve damage, meaning that the nerves in your bladder may become damaged causing problems with the correct emptying of your bladder. If too much urine is left sat around in your bladder, and because of the high sugar content in your urine, you are more prone to getting a water infection which can back up to the kidneys causing damage to your kidneys.

Commemorative coins 2 rubles in Russia
Varieties of commemorative coins
Why issue commemorative coins
Commemorative coins 2 rubles 2000 issue
2000 commemorative coin value
Jubilee coin 2 rubles 2012years
Cost of 2012 commemorative coins
Gagarin's two-ruble coins
Precious metal commemorative coins
The bulk of people, paying in stores and receiving money, do not even know about the we alth that passes through their hands, thinking that it is just a trifle.
The Mint in different years produced a certain amount of money in denominations from 10 kopecks to 10 rubles, and some batches were so small (there were cases of issuing only one coin) that their value is estimated at hundreds of thousands of rubles.
Russian coins are divided by face value: from 10 kopecks to 25 rubles, as well as by the number of issued copies.
Money produced in large quantities, which are found in any financial transactions, have no differences and are stamped according to one template, but there are commemorative coins of 2 rubles and other denominations in circulation that differ from the usual templates. The main difference can be seen on the reverse side, where instead of the "eagle" there is a commemorative image of a city, person or event.
Coins made on the occasion of significant dates, events or people, mostly have obvious differences that can be easily noticed, but in some casesthe differences are not so obvious, and ordinary residents miss out on expensive commemorative coins of 2 rubles, giving fabulous sums into the wrong hands.
The bulk of the issued small denomination money does not have much value from a financial point of view, and all the significance lies only in reminding the inhabitants of the country that Russia is a truly great country that has achieved tremendous success, showing the whole world its power.
Since 1997, the Russian Mint has issued more than 500 items, among which coins are not with small changes in the form of engravings, but with large drawings in honor of memorable events.
Rare coins are interesting not so much for their value, but for the pattern depicted on them, which is made not just in the form of an inscription, but in the form of an image of the moment or person in whose honor the money was issued.
In 2000, Moscow and St. Petersburg mints issued 2 ruble denominations in the jubilee series, but each of them was engaged in stamping individual series ordered specifically for him.
The St. Petersburg Mint has released the following list: commemorative 2 ruble coins dedicated to Leningrad, Novorossiysk and Stalingrad. The Moscow court was charged with 2 rubles with views of Tula, Murmansk, Moscow and Smolensk.
The Year 2000 Solemn Money was made in honor of the Hero Cities, and the design was done in such a way that the coins were stampedevents and moments that made the city a hero.
For example, Stalingrad gained great importance due to the repulse of the Nazi army and thus rightfully earned the name of a hero city, and the mint minted 2 rubles depicting a battle against the background of destroyed buildings.
In total, 10 million pieces of 2-ruble commemorative coins were issued, and their release date is May 4th. But, of course, it is impossible to stamp so many copies in one day, and preparations began in advance.
The cost of any coins of the anniversary edition depends on many factors, but the most important thing is the circulation of the issue. However, in this case, the price of 2 rubles in 2000 may be influenced not by the circulation, but by the condition of the coins. Those copies that are rarely found in circulation are not very interesting for collectors due to their wear. However, if someone has commemorative Russian 2 ruble coins in good condition, they can be sold at a price of 100 to 150 rubles.
In the event that 2 rubles have some defects, such as scratches, then it will be possible to sell it only to that numismatist who has been looking for this particular copy for a long time and cannot find it. Then it will be possible to sell the coin at a reduced cost - by about 3-5 times.
The only fact that can cheer up those who keep commemorative 2 ruble coins is time, which will increase the value of each copy by several times, and our grandchildren will be able to sell this money for a rather impressive amount in due time.
Another batch of commemorative money was issued in 2012, and the funds were directed to the production of military-themed coins.
Commemorative coins of 2 rubles of 2012 were issued in 16 different variants:
Field Marshal Barclay de Tolly.
General Wittgenstein.
General Bagration.
Staff Captain Durov.
General Bennigsen.
General Davydov.
General Ermolov.
General Dokhturov.
General Kutaisov.
General Platov.
Partisan organizer Kozhina.
General Miloradovich.
General Raevsky.
General Ostarman-Tolstoy.
General Alexander 1.
General Kutuzov.
Commemorative coins of this series on the reverse side have a distinct portrait of a general or other commander, as well as an inscription with his name to increase recognition.
Low denomination money issued in 2012 does not have much value. Selling such a coin for a large reward will not work. However, if there is a great desire to sell a commemorative coin, then first you should make sure that it is in perfect condition.
A numismatist who agreed to buy such a copy will carefully consider it in order to acquire the perfect coin, and ordinary (worn) coins today continue to be in circulation and are already very worn out.
The cost of the ideal 2012 commemorative coin isabout 30, plus or minus 10 rubles, but this is only in the case of its original state, and if there are scuffs, then you need to wait for better times.
Any resident of the country is proud that Russia (at that time the USSR) overtook the United States in the space race and became the first country to send a man into outer space. In honor of the anniversary of this important event for the whole country and each individual resident, the mints were instructed to issue a new series of coins with the image of the hero, their circulation amounted to 20 million pieces.
Due to the large number of issued coins, each of them does not have a high value, however, the significance of this event proves the value that the anniversary coin of 2 Gagarin's 2 rubles represents not only for numismatists, but also for ordinary consumers.
The commemorative coin of the first cosmonaut looks like the usual 2 rubles, but if you turn it upside down (eagle), you can see that there is a stamped portrait of Gagarin against the background of a flying star, the date April 12, 61 and a large signature of the pilot himself.
The price category of these coins varies greatly due to the fact that the entire issued quantity was distributed between the St. Petersburg and Moscow mints. However, on some copies there is no manufacturer's signature at all, and their cost varies from 800 to 3 thousand rubles.
Periodicallyvarious commemorative coins are issued, which are stamped in memory of events or people who influenced the course of events, but there are not just limited copies, but units issued from precious metals.
Naturally, the limited nature of such series makes numismatists start a real hunt, but the owners of these coins are in no hurry to tell everyone about their amazing find and carefully hide this information. However, coins made of precious metals (gold and silver) are valued at fabulous amounts.
There are quite a lot of gold and silver coins in limited editions, but the cost of 1 copy can be tens, and in some cases hundreds of thousands of rubles, which already speaks of their financial value and does not allow ordinary numismatists to enrich the collection with such a model. For example: a gold coin of 50 rubles in 2014, issued in honor of M. Yu. Lermontov, the value of which is about 25 thousand rubles, or 100 rubles, issued in honor of the victory over the Nazis in the Battle of Stalingrad, the value of which is 108 thousand rubles. However, it is worth remembering that there are only a few of them.
There are many other examples of small denominations of 5, 10, 50 rubles, but the price of this element can be more than a million. For example, a coin of 1000 rubles, issued in honor of the history of money circulation, costs 1,550,000 rubles.

What Will it Take to Bring Closure to North Bend Hit and Run Case?
March 7, 2013 by Danna McCall 4 Comments
If you listened to the radio yesterday you might have heard a popular talk radio show, The Ron and Don Show, discuss the unsolved North Bend New Year's Day hit and run case – and the rumor that a small Snoqualmie Valley town has known for two months who is responsible but kept quiet.
The King County Sheriff's Office says the case is ongoing and moving forward, but what will it take to make an arrest and close it?
Is the community keeping quiet or do the majority just not have the first-hand knowledge of events that led up to the New Year's tragedy? Yesterday's report seemed to insinuate some have this knowledge but are choosing not to share it.
Lucinda (Lucy) Pieczatkowski was struck and killed by a driver who left the accident scene early New Year's Day. The following day a tip led police to a late-model, white Ford F150 truck they are quite confident was responsible. The truck was found in the North Bend area.
Memorial for Lucy at spot of the 1/1/13 accident on 394th PL near North Bend
There has been no confession in the case; no guilty party has stepped forward. It appears there were no witnesses to the accident. These circumstances make the case more challenging.
According to yesterday's radio report, The King County Sheriff's Office say many people have contacted them stating everyone in the community knows who the truck belongs to and who did it. The problem is few with first-hand knowledge have come forward.
A parent interviewed in the story contacted police with information he/she learned from their teenager about the accident. That parent said they were told that their information was similar to what the detective believed happened that night – that someone left a party in Fall City and was allegedly drunk behind the wheel of the vehicle that struck and killed Lucy.
According to King County Sheriff Office spokesperson, Cindi West, what would help the case is for police to hear from someone with first-hand knowledge of the truck and its driver being at or leaving this party. They would like a party attendee to come forward with information beyond just hearsay.
Will it happen? It's been two months. The $1,000 Crime Stoppers reward for information leading to an arrest is still out there.
Sergeant West wrapped up her Kiro Radio interview saying the right thing isn't always the easy thing to do, but that people need to do the right thing.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the King County Sheriff's Office at (206) 296-3311 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Why do they need first hand people to come forward? If they have been told by ANYONE who knows who did this then that should be sufficient.

I would assume in order for charges to be filed and to bolster a court case. Someone as an eyewitness putting the driver behind the wheel and at the party to bolster a solid court case. Things have to be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. Hearsay is repeating what someone else has told you.

Who is the pickup registered to? If the broken headlight found at the scene matches damage done to the pickup, then that places it at the scene, no? Are there fingerprints on the pickup? Is there a registration paper in the glove compartment? I don't understand how they don't know who is responsible if they've impounded the pickup.

This breaks my heart and brings back memories of when Todd Berkebile was murdered. Lots know who did it, but still no arrest after over 25 years. This is a tragedy for everyone all around. I hope for the sake of the person that did it, that they come forward and start to heal the family and the community.

Hello! I'm Lucy Werner, founder of The Wern PR. Having worked both in-house and at PR agencies for over 10 years, I finally took the leap to leave the rat race to work on a new project with serial entrepreneur Dominic Cools-Lartigue. I was instantly overwhelmed by how many amazing ideas backed by inspiring entrepreneurs were looking for PR support to help grow their businesses. Recognising that there was a gap in the market for quality and affordable PR at this business level, I decided to set up a consultancy that specialised in startup, small and independent businesses.
Fast forward to 2017, we are now a team of five and have expanded this even further by offering training and bespoke consultancy packages for businesses and individuals who want to learn how to do PR for themselves - our aim is to help as many businesses grow as we can.
Evolving from publicity for businesses, we will shortly be announcing our first talent management deal for an excellent female founder. We are also looking to expand our training tools and lesson guides for startup businesses.
1. Make sure you invest in the following categories of your business: IT, accountancy, legal/contracts and insurance. These may seem like a big upfront cost but my goodness, if you fail in any of those areas the costs will be much higher.
2. Take your time to hire - we've never used a recruitment consultancy and the people who have applied speculatively have always proven to be the most dedicated staff.
3. Network and shout about what you are doing, all the best things that we get to do have been a direct result of me and the team just getting out there and chatting to people.
1. Coveragebook.com - an amazing PR resource that actually provides some measurability for what we do as a business to our clients.
2. Slack - a great way to communicate with all our clients and internally too, while keeping email traffic down.
3. The School of Life - having time to develop myself personally has meant that I have a renewed energy and enthusiasm to create and implement great ideas in the business. Sunday Sermons are just one of the ways I enjoy doing this.
We are always interested in collaborations and working with other like-minded individuals on skill swaps.
Our team is made up of individuals who love PR but also want a work-life balance that you can't often find in busy PR agencies, where team resource can be overstretched and the individuals burnt out. We have the mentality of a startup but the combined experience of over 30 years in public relations and are always looking for like-minded individuals to join our squad.
We love chatting to startup businesses for the Q&A section of our blog, as well as service led companies who can provide specific advice for startups.


I wanted a low plant stand to put a few cacti or maybe a lamp on, but I wasn't really into anything I was seeing in stores. Pinterest didn't let me down though, and I was inspired by a similar DIY at Sugar & Cloth to make my own little plant stand this weekend.
It has a mid century modern vibe that I like and it was really easy to make. It would have taken all of 10 minutes to complete if I wasn't taking pictures at the same time.
The finished dimensions of this mid century inspired plant stand are 12″ wide by about 14″ tall so it's pretty small. If you want a larger table, Lowes carries larger wooden rounds and the mid century legs come in a range of heights.
A larger marble top could be cost prohibitive, so you might consider just leaving the wood top or making a topper for this table from a less expensive material. Something like concrete could be cool.
The clock face will act as a support for the marble top and give you something to screw into to attach the legs.
You just screw the angle plates to the clock face, twist the legs onto the angle plates, flip the table over and place the cheese board on top.
I get that you might want a little more instruction than that, so here that is again in more detail.
First, twist the table legs onto the angle plates and arrange them on the clock face to judge where they should be attached. I did this with the clock face sitting on top of the marble cheese board so I could get a better idea of the final placement.
The clock face has a hole on one side but the hole doesn't go all the way through to the other side. I used that hole as a landmark to help arrange the angle plates. I made sure to attach the legs to this side of the clock face so the other side (the side without a hole) will look nice even without the marble top on it.
I moved the legs a little further from the center to make the plant stand a little more stable.
Once you have the legs arranged the way you like, take a pencil or marker and make a dot inside all of the screw holes in the plates. You should have 4 dots per plate.
Take the legs and plates off of the clock face and drill pilot holes into all of your dots using your 5/32 drill bit. You don't have to make them deep. Less than a centimeter is probably fine. Don't drill all the way through to the other side.
I'm not sure you need to drill pilot holes, but it makes screwing the plates in place a little easier – the pilot holes help guide the screws into the right position.
Now, twist the legs off of the angle plates (this makes screwing the plates in place easier), and re-position the plates over your pilot holes. Use your Philips head drill bit to affix the plates to the clock face with the screws that come with the plates.
When all of the plates are attached to the clock face, screw the legs back into the plates, flip the plant stand over, and set the marble cheese board on top.
I didn't use anything to stick the marble top to the table. It's held in place by its own weight.
I did that for a couple of reasons.
I like options. I wanted to be able to switch out the marble top with a different material, a different color marble, or even use the plant stand with just the wood top.
You probably noticed that this plant stand isn't finished with anything – there's no paint or polyurethane or stain on the wood. I like the look of the raw wood, but I wanted the option to paint or stain it later and that will be way easier if the marble top is removable. Even if I decide to leave the color, I'll still want to apply some polyurethane or something to protect the plant stand.
This DIY was so easy it almost feels like cheating to call it a DIY. And the basic idea – attach mid century legs to a piece of wood then top with something cool – seems almost infinitely customizable. Since I made this little plant stand I've dreamed up a ton of possible variations.
So, yeah. I've got ideas for days. I'm already plotting my next table. I'm thinking of making a pair to use as coffee tables or side tables. I might even make another plant stand.
Let me know what you think. Should I make another plant stand with a different finish? Should I change the finish on this one? Which of the variations would you make for your plants, or would you make something other than a plant stand?
Do me a solid and pin this image.
Excellent tutorial! The pictures are both stunning and helpful. I'm definitely inspired.
I think perhaps your next project should be a little nightstand.

Clues to Gaddafi's death concealed from public view
Rania El Gamal
MISRATA, Libya (Reuters) - Libyan forces guarding Muammar Gaddafi's body in a cold storage room let in members of the public to view the deposed leader for a second day on Saturday, but the wounds that may hold the clue to how he died were covered up.

Gaddafi's body lay on a mattress on the floor of the cold room, as it did Friday when hundreds of members of the public filed in to see for themselves that the man who ruled Libya for 42 years was dead.
But unlike the previous day, Gaddafi's body was covered by a blanket that left only his head exposed, hiding the bruises on his torso and scratch marks on his chest that had earlier been visible.
And, crucially, a Reuters reporter who viewed the body said, Gaddafi's head had been turned to the left. That meant a bullet hole that earlier could be seen on the left side of his face, just in front of his ear, could no longer be seen.
Guards overseeing Gaddafi's body handed out green surgical masks to dozens of people filing in to take a look because of the stench of rotting flesh filling the room.
The bullet hole in Gaddafi's head, and the other wounds, could help solve the riddle of whether, as Libya's new rulers said, he was shot in crossfire in a battle or, as some accounts suggest, he was killed by the fighters who caught him.
A local military commander in the city of Misrata, where the forces which captured him took his body, said "over-enthusiastic" fighters took matters into their own hands when they came face to face with the man they despise.
"We wanted to keep him alive but the young guys, things went out of control," he said speaking on condition of anonymity.
Few people in Libya — where thousands of people, including civilians, were killed by Gaddafi's forces in the seven-month rebellion — say they are troubled by the manner of his death.
But if he was indeed killed by his captors, it will cast doubt on the promises by Libya's new rulers to respect human rights and prevent reprisals. It would also embarrass Western governments which gave their wholehearted backing to the NTC.
CAPTURED ALIVE, DEAD SHORTLY LATER
The dramatic minutes leading up to Gaddafi's death were chaotic, violent and gruesome — as testified by the grainy mobile phone footage seen by the world of the former leader, bloodied and dazed, being dragged along by NTC fighters.
Gaddafi was still alive when he was captured hiding in a storm drain outside his hometown of Sirte, but he already had blood streaming down the side of his face and a wound close to his left ear very shortly after he had been seized.
Government fighters hauled him onto the bonnet of a Toyota pick-up truck with the intention, one of them said, of getting him through the crowd of fellow fighters and to an ambulance parked about 500 meters (546.8 yards) away.
Gaddafi can be heard in one video saying "God forbids this" several times as slaps from the crowd rain down on his head.
"This is for Misrata, you dog," said one man slapping him.
"Do you know right from wrong?" Gaddafi says.
"Shut up you dog," someone replies as more blows rain down.
Misrata, one of the heartlands of the anti-Gaddafi rebellion, suffered months of siege and artillery bombardment at the hands of his forces.
Another video shows Gaddafi being heaved off the bonnet of the truck and dragged toward a car, then pulled down by his hair. "Keep him alive, keep him alive!" someone shouts.
Another man in the crowd lets out a high-pitched hysterical scream. Gaddafi then goes out of view and gunshots ring out. One of the fighters present said Gaddafi was in a bad way but alive when he was put in the ambulance.
Yet the ambulance driver, Ali Jaghdoun, said Gaddafi was dead when he picked him up and he then drove the body to the city of Misrata. "I didn't try to revive him because he was already dead," Jaghdoun said.
In other video footage obtained by Reuters a convoy of vehicles is seen speeding along a desert road, horns blaring and men shouting "We have Muammar! It's Muammar!."
In later footage the convoy slows to a halt. Fighters rush to an ambulance shouting that Gaddafi is dead. In the back of the vehicle a body lies with a bandage over a wound on its upper abdomen, matching the spot where a bullet hole was seen on Gaddafi's torso after the body was put on display in Misrata. The head is covered with a white sheet, but a man beside it raises it briefly affording a glimpse of the former ruler's face.
A young man appears beside the ambulance, a bearded man beside him shouts out:
"He's the killer. And I am the witness who saw him."
The young fighter exclaims excitedly:
"We found him in a hole. He had somebody with him inside it."
Grinning and brandishing a handgun, the man is feted and embraced by fighters.
"This is the guy who killed Gaddafi. Using this, you see," the man with the beard shouts, holding up the young man's hand in which he has a gun.
"He did it in front of me. I saw it in front of me."
The new footage does not make clear whether Gaddafi died of wounds sustained before he was put into the ambulance or whether he suffered wounds while in the vehicle.
A journalist at the scene confirmed Gaddafi had a head wound before he was put into the ambulance.
WOUNDS STITCHED UP
In the cold store in Misrata, the body of one of Gaddafi's sons, Mo'tassim, had been moved from another location elsewhere in Misrata and placed next to his dead father.
The circumstances leading to the death of Mo'tassim, his father's national security adviser who was also captured in Sirte, are similarly murky.
A Reuters reporter was shown a one-minute segment of mobile phone footage in which a man, who resembled Mo'tassim, was squatting in a room. He was stripped to the waist, and smoking a cigarette. He did not appear badly wounded.
Someone could be heard telling him repeatedly: "Say Allahu Akbar, say Allahu Akbar." The phrase, which means "God is greatest," is a favorite mantra of the anti-Gaddafi fighters.
At some point after that, he died. When a Reuters reporter saw his body Thursday evening, it was laid out in a private house in Misrata. Wounds to his jaw and part of his neck were visible.
Saturday in the cold store, Mo'tassim's body was covered up to the neck with a blanket. The wounds to his jaw and neck had been stitched up.
Later in the day, the body of a third man, Abu Bakr Younus Jabr, was brought in and placed on a stretcher between Gaddafi and his son.
Head of Gaddafi's armed forces, by then just a handful of troops, Jabr was captured in Sirte alongside his leader. A bandage was tied under his chin and looped over the top of his head.
Bullet wounds could be seen to his chest and the top of his left arm. A Reuters reporter who was able to get close to the body said she could see gunpowder residue around the wounds — which is often consistent with being shot at close range.
The people queueing outside the cold store, waiting to view the bodies, did not seem concerned about how their former leader and his entourage died.
Two Filipino nurses filed in to take pictures. Children were among the few dozen people waiting outside for their turn.
Abdullah al-Senussi, a man with a white beard, was so frail he had to be supported by people on either side of him as he made his way to the cold store.
"We wanted to know if it was true or not," he said. "We wanted to see him."
Gaddafi died from a gunshot wound: doctor
Autopsy completed on Muammar Gaddafi's body: source
Two men arrived waving airline tickets, saying they needed to jump the queue to see Gaddafi or they would miss their flights.
Asked if it would not have been better for Gaddafi to stand trial, Abdulatif, a pilot waiting in line, said: "What would he tell the mother whose children were killed or the girls who were raped?"
"If he lived and was killed a thousand times, that would still only be a trifle."

This estate property has breathtaking views and a stunning contemporary design but the condition was dated and the property was vacant.
With the beach views as our inspiration, we staged with a "sea, sky and sand" color palette, contemporary rental furnishings and original, custom artwork by Hamptons artist, Frank Latorre.
Sold with multiple offers over ask. The buyers loved the staging so much they were interested in buying all the furnishings and artwork.
There were two major challenges here. This master bedroom opens to an extraordinary terrace space that was not enhanced with greenery and outdoor furnishings and totally lacked appeal. In addition, the furniture placement was not optimal. The bed also blocked the view of and the flow to the terrace.
The existing furnishings were moved with the seller. The room was staged with rental furnishings and much improved furniture placement and showcased with our accessories and artwork. We also staged the terrace. See our terrace transformation (link to the terrace before and afters for this property).
This listing was also featured on curbed.com.
Nairn Friemann is in a class of her own. Her work, her keen eye, and her ability to implement her unique vision has become an essential element of our business. She has literally transformed mere spaces into homes which truly invite buyers and catalyze the excitement necessary to bid and purchase. In the time we have been working together we have not had a single listing which has not resulted in a successfully sold property at a high yield for the seller. She is both flexible in her styling yet consistent in her purpose: whatever is required is done. She micro-manages the entire process, from choosing furniture and artwork to monitoring installation and overseeing photography, which alleviates the burden from us to worry about presentation. She is a diamond, rock solid yet gleaming in a sea of mediocrity.
The seller was moving to a new apartment and taking most of the furnishings.
We staged and showcased the living room with rental furnishings, our accessories and fabulous abstract artwork by Mollie McNealy.
The sellers of this co-op were moving and the apartment would be vacant.
We staged the apartment with high-end transitional furnishings and accessories.
We had 52 buyers at the open house on Sunday. We are going to best and final offer tomorrow morning. Thanks for helping me make it happen!
Once the renters had moved out from this beautiful penthouse loft, the apartment needed to be painted and staged for enhanced presentation.
We had the entire apartment painted and staged with a combination of the owners' furnishings, rental furnishings and our accessories.
The penthouse property had multiple offers within the first week of showing. We were able to ask a much higher price (approximately $150K more) than we would have, had we listed without Nairn's help.
This property in a renowned NYC building was vacant and felt very dark and stark.
We staged with transitional light colored furnishings, beautiful accessories and artwork to add visual interest and increase overall appeal.
This 4 bedroom loft was first marketed unsuccessfully with a renter in place. When vacant, the loft lacked definition of functional areas.
We staged with our inventory of high-end contemporary furnishings and accessories. We also changed the original allocation of bedrooms and some of the closets – staging as the master, a child's room, a home office and a nanny's room. We also outfitted a large closet as a pantry and another as a laundry room.
The property sold for $3 million.
After the renters moved out, this beautiful property was painted, but also needed to be staged to maximize presentation and enhance asset value before listing for sale. The 20 feet of built-in shelving in the living room required skillful showcasing.
We staged and showcased the entire apartment with rental furnishings and additional artwork and decorative accessories from our inventory. The beautiful seascape art in the living room is by artist, Carolynne Fromme.
In Contract in 4 days with 13 offers.
I saw Nairn's work at a colleague's apartment and was so impressed with her understanding of space and the elements that make up a room, I hired her over the phone to stage my Classic 6 listing. Nairn took care of every aspect of staging, making a painless process for the out-of-state client and myself. Based on her expertise, I went into contract in four days and had thirteen offers on my listing.
This vacant two-bedroom co-op had been on the market for months without interest. The existing furnishings that had been left did not showcase the functionality or spaciousness of the property.
We had the existing furnishings removed and staged the apartment with stream-lined contemporary furnishings and a lighter color palette for broader appeal.
Once staged the apartment received increased attention and sold quickly.
The apartment looks absolutely amazing – can't believe it's the same place. Thank you for all your help!
This condo was dark and had poor views. Without any furnishings, the views were the only thing buyers focused on. It was essential to enhance the lighting as well.
We staged and showcased the condo with sleek contemporary furnishings, colorful accessories and sheer window treatments.
I was listing a light "challenged" apartment on the second floor, facing the interior of three buildings. It was initially listed for rent, with most people walking two steps into the apartment and literally running out. At that point, the owner decided to sell it. After my brief rental experience, I knew this apartment would never sell as it was. I had used many stagers before, however none that I felt could do this apartment justice. I was referred to Nairn and decided to give her a shot. She did a fabulous job and the apartment sold within the first two weeks! Nairn immediately understood the space and what I needed to accomplish. She just got it! It was all done within a week and within budget. A transformed clean, crisp apartment with now plenty of light! Buyers began focusing on the apartment rather than the limited light. Thanks Nairn!!
Five months after the original listing (with time off the market in December and January) this vacant property had not received any offers.
Within weeks of staging with rental furnishings and posting the new photos on the Internet, the property received an accepted offer and closed within 90 days.
The staging definitely helped – there isn't a doubt in our mind. Thanks for all your help and hard work. We will definitely recommend you..
Vacant units in this new condo development had not been selling.
This spacious one-bedroom co-op had been painted but needed staging to enhance its presentation for a quick sale. In addition, the wood trim was dark and distracting and dated the apartment.
We had the trim painted throughout and staged the apartment with a small budget and strategic choices.
The property sold over ask in one week with multiple offers.
This 2 bedroom condo is located in a neighborhood with lots of young families. A vacant second bedroom like this can't possibly appeal to a child.
Don't be afraid to stage with color and pattern in children's rooms! They should look and feel happy.
This vacant penthouse duplex was on the market for 9 months with no offers, incurring significant carrying costs for the sellers.
We at BARAK Realty, would like to thank you and your team for al your hard work and to recognize your staging services were instrumental in getting our PHD SOLD!
Your ability to show the best in every room and your impeccable design and wonderful taste were evident immediately, giving it a sophisticated look and bringing warmth and a homey feel to it.
As we were showing the apartment, every broker who had seen the "before and after" was amazed and truly impressed with the difference. We have been happy every time we have worked with you and look forward to working with you again.
When Yael Dunayer and Francisco Mendendez of BARAK Realty took over the listing, they insisted that the property needed to be staged and brought in Ingenuity & Pizzazz, Inc. This staged property was featured in the New York Times.
The owners had a signed contract five weeks after Ingenuity & Pizzazz, Inc. had staged the property.
This living room presented a layout challenge because of the location of the fireplace and hall archway.
To showcase the focal points of the beautiful windows and the fireplace, the sofa was placed in the corner. For this arrangement to be successful in spaces like this, only sofas with curved arms and oval coffee tables should be used!
We believe your staging was a crucial part of marketing the apartment and are glad Carol introduced us to you and that you did the staging. Once again, many thanks for your fine work and the effort you put forth.
This spacious apartment was vacant and lacked warmth and appeal. The sellers wanted to sell quickly for top dollar.
We staged the entire apartment with beautiful transitional style furnishings and accessories.
We went to contract one week on the market. By all accounts people just loved the way the apartment was staged. Many thanks for your expert eye, excellent taste, for helping us sell in record time.
I just want to compliment you on the beautiful staging job you did at 370 RSD 12B. Showing the apartment was an absolute pleasure. I already told many other realtors that you were the genius behind the staging as we received so many compliments. Thanks so much!
This second bedroom had been used as a home office, but needed to look like a bedroom. In addition the carpeting was soiled and buyers prefer hardwood.
The sellers moved out and with a clean slate, we had the carpeting and old window blinds removed, the floor refinished and the room painted. The room was then staged as a teenager's room with rental furnishings and our accessories.
Sold with multiple offers, significantly over ask.
The owners of this property were moving to their upstate home and needed to sell their NYC apartment. The existing furnishings were dark and there was an abundance of personal belongings throughout.
We recommended that the sellers have everything moved out. The apartment was painted, floors were refinished and we staged and showcased with rental furnishings and our decorative accessories.
The property sold quickly with multiple offers, significantly over ask.
Nairn Friemann is the consummate PROFESSIONAL STAGER. You can trust Nairn's advice and judgment in staging choices. She understands the target consumer and stages to appeal to the widest audience, resulting in quicker and higher sales. She knows what works to highlight the positives of a property and her staging is always customized to the property and potential buyer. A huge bonus, she is lovely to work with.
I have successfully worked with Nairn on numerous properties over the years. Most recently, Nairn strategically staged a property at 601 West End Ave, which resulted in a sales price well over ask.
This long, narrow master bedroom with a wall of windows created a furniture placement challenge for any buyer.
Three separate functional "zones" were created, with the bed at one end, a desk and chair at the other and a seating area in between. This created a true master bedroom with a hotel suite style and feel!
Thank you for your beautiful staging!

While the public and biologists are enjoying the rare opportunity to view sockeye salmon in Idaho's upper Salmon River this year, an Idaho State University research professor has taken looks at Gem State sockeye salmon runs going back thousands of years.
Today's fisheries managers are thrilled by the return of hundreds of fish to the Sawtooth Valley, but historically the run consisted of tens of thousands of sockeye, according to Idaho State University research professor Bruce Finney, Ph.D.
Researchers on Redfish Lake in process of taking sample. Photo by Jason Addison. Photos provided by Mark Shapley. As of early August, more than 850 rare sockeye salmon had passed over the Lower Granite Dam, the last barrier on the Snake River that salmon must pass before entering Idaho. Fisheries biologists predict as many as 700 fish could return to the Sawtooth Fish Hatchery near Redfish Lake, which is near the town of Stanley. To get to this hatchery the fish travel nearly 900 miles.
Some years there are only single-digit or zero returns of the sockeye. The largest number to return to central Idaho in a year since 1985, when biologists starting counting the runs, was 257 sockeye in 2000. Since 1985, just 352 wild and hatchery-origin sockeye have returned to the Redfish Lake area. Redfish Lake is named for sockeye, which turn a reddish color when they spawn.
While this relatively strong run is encouraging to those who want to save the fish, this year's run is a small fraction of the size of sockeye runs that historically returned to spawn in the lakes of the upper Sawtooth Valley, including Redfish, Petit and Alturas Lakes. According to Finney from 25,000 to 40,000 sockeye historically spawned annually in Redfish Lake alone prior to the 1900s.

Finney bases this calculation on work he has done examining the sediment cores from lakes using a machine called a mass spectrometer. Mass spectrometers are instruments that can measure the masses and relative concentrations of atoms and molecules in chemical compounds and other samples. Spectrometers accurately measure the different types of isotopes of the same element such as carbon or nitrogen in biological or geological samples.
Finney has developed a technique using mass spectrometers to reconstruct the salmon runs in the past. Salmon have a signature type of nitrogen, recorded by nitrogen isotopes, which scientists can use to positively identify as originating from the salmon. When the salmon die and they decompose they release nitrogen, which is in turn taken in by algae that end up in lake sediments. High salmon runs correspond to higher concentrations of these nitrogen deposits; lower concentrations of nitrogen in deposits represent smaller runs. The sediments on lake bottoms can be dated using radiocarbon dating, an accurate method for dating materials and by identifying ash layers from known volcanic events.
So far, Finney and his colleagues have studied core samples from some of the larger lakes in the upper Sawtooth Valley, including Redfish Lake, dating back about 2,000 years.

Although there were fluctuations, sockeye runs until about a century ago were consistently high, but populations crashed as Old World settlers developed the region. Finney's mass spectrometer measurements confirm anecdotal and eyewitness accounts of what led to the precipitous demise in the Idaho upper Salmon River sockeye population: the creation in 1910 of the Sunbeam Dam, located about 15 miles downstream of Stanley.
"The most dramatic decline in salmon runs occurred when the Sunbeam Dam was built," Finney said. "Its creation just overwhelms any naturally occurring fluctuations that occurred previously."
The creation of the Sunbeam Dam shows how Finney's technique can be used to help confirm other data about Pacific salmon runs that has been collected in the last 100 to 150 years. However, his data can also be used to help create a picture of what runs were like prior to modernization in the New World, when commercial fishing increased, rivers were dammed and there were other numerous large-scale factors that potentially altered salmon runs.
The information Finney collects about pre-industrial age salmon runs may be of even more use. Based on data Finney collected while doing a similar study in Alaska, fishery managers in one area changed their management goals based on historical salmon runs from prior to when fishery records were kept. This is one example of the large number of ways that Finney's research is applicable to current management.
In completing his studies on various lakes from Alaska to the Pacific Northwest, analyzing runs that have occurred as far back as 10,000 years, Finney has confirmed that salmon population fluctuations occurred regularly in response to naturally occurring climatic events. This is also useful information because it can give managers a framework about what happens to fish runs in a particular area in response to a warming or cooling trend. That information could potentially be used by current fisheries managers to develop harvest guidelines for particular fisheries.
Finney is involved in a major research project with researchers from three other universities to synthesize all the results from lake core sample studies that have been obtain in Alaska, British Columbia, Yukon Territories and in the Pacific Northwest. The results of that study could help researchers build a sweeping view of salmon run patterns occurring over a larger time and geographical scale.

Q: Problems while installing pg gem I need to install pg gem, but the installation failed. I've tried all the solution propesed in other questions but no luck.
Here is my output, and here is my "mkmf.log" file
Any idea?
[UPDATE]
I've solved the first problem by putting libs in the correct directory. But now I've another problem:
find_executable: checking for pg_config... -------------------- yes

--------------------

"gcc -o conftest -I/usr/include/ruby-1.9.1/i686-linux -I/usr/include/ruby-1.9.1/ruby/backward -I/usr/include/ruby-1.9.1 -I. -I/usr/include/postgresql  -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64  -fno-strict-aliasing -g -g -O2 -fPIC conftest.c  -L. -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -L. -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -rdynamic -Wl,-export-dynamic     -lruby-1.9.1-static  -lpthread -lrt -ldl -lcrypt -lm   -lc"
