Insider
An insider is a member of any group of people of limited number and generally restricted access. The term is used in the context of secret, privileged, hidden or otherwise esoteric information or knowledge: an insider is a "member of the gang" hence knows things outsiders don't, including insider jargon.
In our complicated and information-rich world, the concept of insider knowledge is popular and pervasive, as a source of direct and useful guidance. In a given situation, an insider is contrasted with an outside expert: the expert can provide an in-depth theoretical analysis that should lead to a practical opinion, while an insider has firsthand, material knowledge. Insider information may be thought of as more accurate and valuable than expert opinion.
Roles
There are many popular cultural roles ascribed to the insider.
In criminal and social justice, whistle-blowing and leaks are seen as (often heroic) efforts of individual insiders to right wrongs by making secret information public, usually in David and Goliath situations (e.g. by revealing transgressions of governments, large corporations or other powerful organizations). When whistle-blowers are cultivated by outside forces, they are known as informants and informers.

Stargate SG-1 (season 10)
Season ten of Stargate SG-1, an American-Canadian television series, began airing on July 14, 2006 on Sci Fi Channel (United States). The final season of the series concluded after 20 episodes on March 13, 2007 on British Sky One, which overtook the Sci-Fi Channel in mid-season. The series was developed by Brad Wright and Jonathan Glassner. Brad Wright, Robert C. Cooper, Joseph Mallozzi, and Paul Mullie served as executive producers. Season ten regular cast members include Ben Browder, Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, Beau Bridges, Claudia Black, and Michael Shanks.
The season (and the Ori arc of the show) is continued with direct-to-DVD film Stargate: The Ark of Truth.
Reception
Will O'Brien of TV Squad thought "Company of Thieves" was, for the most part, a good one, despite a disappointing performance by Rudolf Martin. Jason Van Horn of IGN, however, was less than impressed, suggesting that the episode just wasn't interesting – that the Lucian Alliance was an enemy no one cares about and that Paul Emerson wasn't enough of a character within the show for his death to have had any meaningful impact.

Come
by: Kinnie StarrCome, come let's sleep
Come, come let's sleep
And in the mornings, I wake satisfied
Because the first thing I see is your eyes
And it makes me wanna stumble into my day
I like to try things your way
Thinking about them your way
This is how I pray
This is how I pray
By checking myself at the peak of each bright day
To chock it all up doing all in the painfully perfect way
Any rains come, I'm gonna bring back a new sun
By checking ourselves at the peak of each bright day
To chock it all up doing all in the painfully perfect way
Any rains come, I'm gonna bring back a new sun
Come, come let's sleep
See, I will still play it all out my way
And you can say what it is you need to say
'Cause I am your disciple and mentor either way
You're learning everything about everything
So that we can stay
This is how I pray, yes
This is how I pray
By checking myself at the peak of each bright day
To chock it all up doing all in the painfully perfect way
Any rains come, I'm gonna bring back a new sun
By checking ourselves at the peak of each bright day
To chock it all up doing all in the painfully perfect way
Any rains come, I'm gonna bring back a new sun
Come, come let's sleep
Come, come let's sleep
Now that we know the meaning of love
Come, come let's sleep
Now that the skies are watching us from above
Come, come let's sleep
Now that we know the meaning of love
Come, come let's sleep
Now that the skies are watching us from above
Come, come let's sleep
Now that we know the meaning of love
Come, come let's sleep
Now that the skies are watching us from above
Come, come let's sleep, my, baby
Come, come let's sleep
Come, come let's sleep, my, baby
