<p>On March 3rd Olivia attended at the event <em>Vanity Fair And Brioni Host Artists For Peace And Justice</em>, she looked so amazing, her outfit looks great and everything else too. She wore <em>alice + olivia by Stacey Bendet</em> and the black leather skirt by <em>Brioni</em>.</p>
<p>The event were held at Bar Nineteen 12 in Beverly Hills, California and were supporting Haiti relief efforts and aims to build schools and hospitals in the country. <a href="http://kristen-b.net">Kristen Bell</a>, Ben Stiller, and Gerard Butler among others also attended the event to support the Haiti victims. Olivia is very active in the charity <a href="http://artistsforpeaceandjustice.com/">Artists For Peace And Justice</a> and she recently said this about Haiti:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Haiti has had a lot of trouble for a long time and people had become comfortable with forgetting about it, but I&#8217;ve been moved by the generosity shown from all over the world,&#8221;</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another new Earthquake hit Haiti earlier this morning. Haiti truly needs our support more than ever so if you can manage to donate something please do so, Olivia Wilde&#8217;s charity <a href="http://www.artistsforpeaceandjustice.com/">Artists For Peace And Justice</a> is seeking donations for Project Haiti. You can also support <a href="http://www.google.com/relief/haitiearthquake/">UNICEF &#038; CARE</a> to help with the disaster relief.</p>
<blockquote><p>A 6.1-magnitude earthquake struck Haiti on Wednesday morning, shaking buildings and sending screaming people running into the streets only eight days after the country&#8217;s capital was devastated by an apocalyptic quake.</p>
<p>The U.S. Geological Survey said the new quake hit at 6:03 a.m. (1103 GMT) about 35 miles (56 kilometers) northwest of the capital of Port-au-Prince. It struck at a depth of 13.7 miles (22 kilometers) but was too far inland to generate any tidal waves in the Caribbean.</p>
<p>Wails of terror rose Wednesday as frightened survivors of last week&#8217;s quake poured out of unstable buildings. It was not immediately possible to ascertain what additional damage the new quake may have caused.</p>
<p><span id="more-45"></span>Last week&#8217;s magnitude-7 quake killed an estimated 200,000 people in Haiti, left 250,000 injured and made 1.5 million homeless. A massive international aid effort has been launched, but it is struggling with logistical problems, and many Haitians are still desperate for food and water.</p>
<p>Still, search-and-rescue teams have emerged from the ruins with some improbable success stories — including the rescue of 69-year-old ardent Roman Catholic who said she prayed constantly during her week under the rubble.</p>
<p>Ena Zizi had been at a church meeting at the residence of Haiti&#8217;s Roman Catholic archbishop when the Jan. 12 quake struck, trapping her in debris. On Tuesday, she was rescued by a Mexican disaster team.</p>
<p>Zizi said after the quake, she spoke back and forth with a vicar who also was trapped. But he fell silent after a few days, and she spent the rest of the time praying and waiting.</p>
<p>&#8220;I talked only to my boss, God,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t need any more humans.&#8221;</p>
<p>Doctors who examined Zizi on Tuesday said she was dehydrated and had a dislocated hip and a broken leg.</p>
<p>Elsewhere in the capital, two women were pulled from a destroyed university building. And near midnight Tuesday, a smiling and singing 26-year-old Lozama Hotteline was carried to safety from a collapsed store in the Petionville neighborhood by the French aid group Rescuers Without Borders.</p>
<p>Crews at the cathedral managed to recover the body of the archbishop, Monsignor Joseph Serge Miot, who was killed in the Jan. 12 quake.</p>
<p>Authorities said close to 100 people had been pulled from wrecked buildings by international search-and-rescue teams. Efforts continued, with dozens of teams sifting through Port-au-Prince&#8217;s crumbled homes and buildings for signs of life.</p>
<p>But the good news was overshadowed by the frustrating fact that the world still can&#8217;t get enough food and water to the hungry and thirsty.</p>
<p>&#8220;We need so much. Food, clothes, we need everything. I don&#8217;t know whose responsibility it is, but they need to give us something soon,&#8221; said Sophia Eltime, a 29-year-old mother of two who has been living under a bedsheet with seven members of her extended family.</p>
<p>The World Food Program said more than 250,000 ready-to-eat food rations had been distributed in Haiti by Tuesday, reaching only a fraction of the 3 million people thought to be in desperate need.</p>
<p>The WFP said it needs to deliver 100 million ready-to-eat rations in the next 30 days, but it only had 16 million meals in the pipeline.</p>
<p>Even as U.S. troops landed in Seahawk helicopters Tuesday on the manicured lawn of the ruined National Palace, the colossal efforts to help Haiti were proving inadequate because of the scale of the disaster.Expectations exceeded what money, will and military might have been able to achieve.</p>
<p>So far, international relief efforts have been unorganized, disjointed and insufficient to satisfy the great need. Doctors Without Borders says a plane carrying urgently needed surgical equipment and drugs has been turned away five times, even though the agency received advance authorization to land.</p>
<p>A statement from Partners in Health, co-founded by the deputy U.N. envoy to Haiti, Dr. Paul Farmer, said the group&#8217;s medical director estimated 20,000 people are dying each day who could be saved by surgery.</p>
<p>&#8220;TENS OF THOUSANDS OF EARTHQUAKE VICTIMS NEED EMERGENCY SURGICAL CARE NOW!!!!!&#8221; Farmer said in the statement.</p>
<p>The reasons are varied:</p>
<p>• Both national and international authorities suffered great losses in the quake, taking out many of the leaders best suited to organize a response.</p>
<p>• Woefully inadequate infrastructure and a near-complete failure in telephone and Internet communications have complicated efforts to reach millions of people forced from their homes.</p>
<p>• Fears of looting and violence have kept aid groups and governments from moving as quickly as they would like.</p>
<p>• Pre-existing poverty and malnutrition put some at risk even before the quake hit.</p>
<p>Governments have pledged nearly $1 billion in aid, and thousands of tons of food and medical supplies have been shipped. But much remains trapped in warehouses, or diverted to the neighboring Dominican Republic. Port-au-Prince&#8217;s nonfunctioning seaport and many impassable roads complicate efforts to get aid to the people.</p>
<p>Aid is being turned back from the single-runway airport, where the U.S. military has been criticized by some of poorly prioritizing flights. The U.S. Air Force said it had raised the facility&#8217;s daily capacity from 30 flights before the quake to 180 on Tuesday.</p>
<p>About 2,200 U.S. Marines established a beachhead west of Port-au-Prince on Tuesday to help speed aid delivery, in addition to 9,000 Army soldiers already on the ground. Lt. Cmdr. Walter Matthews, a U.S. military spokesman, said helicopters were ferrying aid from the airport into Port-au-Prince and the nearby town of Jacmel as fast as they could.</p>
<p>U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said the military will send a port-clearing ship with cranes aboard to Port-au-Prince to remove debris that is preventing many larger aid ships from docking.</p>
<p>The U.N. was sending in reinforcements as well: The Security Council voted Tuesday to add 2,000 peacekeepers to the 7,000 already in Haiti, and 1,500 more police to the 2,100-strong international force.</p>
<p>&#8220;The floodgates for aid are starting to open,&#8221; Matthews said at the airport. &#8220;In the first few days, you&#8217;re limited by manpower, but we&#8217;re starting to bring people in.&#8221;</p>
<p>The WFP&#8217;s Alain Jaffre said the U.N. agency hoped to help 100,000 people by Wednesday.</p>
<p>Hanging over the entire effort was an overwhelming fear among relief officials that Haitians&#8217; desperation would boil over into violence.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve very concerned about the level of security we need around our people when we&#8217;re doing distributions,&#8221; said Graham Tardif, who heads disaster-relief efforts for the charity World Vision. The U.N., the U.S. government and other organizations have echoed such fears.</p>
<p>Occasionally, those fears have been borne out. Looters rampaged through part of downtown Port-au-Prince on Tuesday, just four blocks from where U.S. troops landed at the presidential palace. Hundreds of looters fought over bolts of cloth and other goods with broken bottles and clubs. </p></blockquote>
