Today we started by going over our maps. The quarter ends a week from today.

Economic sanctions- are not trading- we aren't going to fight you we will just stop trading until you bow down.
IAEA- sends weapon inspectors into other countires to see if they have anything illegal

Maryland is the next state to allow gay marriage :)

Now we are doing matt steins forum post.

Now we are talking about our new project. Me, Justin, Rey, and Natalie we got Maternal Health and Combat HIV/AIDS. Make a powerpoint focus on defining it and explain the goal. What is the problem? why is it a problem? why is it a goal to get it changed? is it going to make the goal by 2015? give examples of areas that have got it covered and did complete it before 2015.
How are we graded? 100 points, how we do, how our group does, content, own words, know your content, speak with confidence, good visuals, no typos,
