The Introduction
The Social Problem:
Here the author spells out his main aim for writing the book. It is not philosophy for philosophy's sake. The purpose is to present Islam as an alternative system superior to capitalism and secular democracy on the one hand and to Marxism and socialism on the other.
Although devoid of an articulate worldview or ideology, capitalistic democracies are materialistic to the core. Dissociating themselves from all transcendental principles, they claim to promote the interests and rights of the individual and safeguard his economic, political liberties and freedom of expression and thought. The interests of the individual are regarded as primary and are emphasized at the cost of the interests of society. The assumption is that since all individuals seek their interests, the provision of individual freedom leads to the automatic fulfillment of the interests of society, which are regarded as the sum of individual interests.
However, due to the dominant materialistic outlook on life in capitalistic societies, the pursuit of individual self-interest does not transcend the purview of materialism. Nearly all moral values, most of which do not lie within the purview of materialistic self-seeking of individuals, are neglected, causing deep harm to society's welfare. The rights of the minority are neglected. Unlimited economic freedom permits a handful of capitalists to dominate the majority of people and to usurp their freedoms and rights. With the immense economic resources at their disposal, the wealthy capitalists take control of the mass media, government, legislature and judiciary. Even foreign countries and peoples are not secure from their greed for cheap raw materials, cheap labour, and markets for finished products. Imperialism, hence, is a direct outcome of capitalistic democracy.
In this dehumanizing hell of materialism and pursuit of individual self-interest there is no place for love, mercy, self-denial or any other higher human value.
Dialectical materialism sees all evils of capitalism to be rooted in the institution of private property. If private property is abolished and all property becomes public, passing from the possession and control of the individual into those of the community, individual ambition will die.
All will voluntarily pool the fruits of their labour for the common benefit. The higher cultural values will be put within the reach of all alike through community support and the diffusion of education.
Although communism solved some of the problems of capitalism at the cost of immense human suffering, the remedy was only partial. Dictatorship, repression, deprival of individual freedoms, constant fear of imprisonment, torture and execution for the dissidents, loss of economic vigour due to absence of individual initiative and motivation, the debasement of man's dignity these are some of the outcomes of the socialist solution.
In the view of Martyr al-Sadr, the evil of capitalism lies not in private property but in the neglect of the spiritual dimensions of man's being. Moreover, self-seeking is inherent in human nature; it is not a product of the institution of private property, as alleged by Marx. The failure of secular democracies lies in their emphasis on individualism and their inability to stimulate and promote the higher spiritual aspect of man's self-seeking nature, whose activation is vital for arising man's altruistic potentialities so significant for society's welfare. Marxism makes the mistake of abolishing private property while keeping intact capitalism's destructive materialistic world view. As a result, it ends up substituting a handful of bureaucrats and party officials for a handful of capitalists who wield all power and control the society's wealth and resources.
Both capitalism and communism fail to present a correct world outlook and to formulate an ideology capable of solving the diverse problems of human society. This failure is rooted in their materialist world view and their inadequate understanding of man's nature.

a scratch on a big iceberg
August 5, 2011
We pay taxes and still get lousy services
A doctor in a local hospital falsely recently even cancelled her medical clinic so she could go to a medical symposium, all while her staff lied and falsely covered up for her too. She wasn't interested in helping the sick persons but but clearly in only helping herself. The same doctor could not understand why she now was so often depressed as well. https://postedat.wordpress.com/2010/02/18/she-was-selfish-self-absorbed-self-centered/
You do seem to find out the hard way what the medical care system is really like when you go to use it and really do need it, in the Hospitals, clinics and triage included now. The too often insulting, uncaring, uneducated security guards posted at the local hospitals, emergency departments too readily do tell the sick patients to shut up, to still still and be quiet for a 4 to 8 hours wait is normal. While at the same time a doctor at the local hospital told me that the hospital clinics are not a personal right but an optional privilege, service in our free Medicare SYSTEM that the Hospitals do not have to provide for the patients. Too many money hungry, self serving, self oriented medical employees in reality in Hospitals still do falsely think that the governments now do have to provide a good paying job for them so they can next do what they want, while they still do not even care about what is happening to the sick persons and this is never acceptable. It is the same old truths also such as the very healthy persons tend to not care about the sick, and the employed public and civil servants do tend to think they are now the bosses, clearly above and superiors to all others.. IRONICALLY THE SAME BAD, SELFISH, GREEDY, SELF CENTERED, MEDICAL PERSONS WHILE THEY WERE, ARE STUDENTS WANT THE CITIZENS TO PAY ALL OF THEIR MEDICAL EDUCATIONAL COSTS so they can next get rich and even abuse, neglect us, them.
It seems the people at the local city hall have found out a solution to their too often cost ineffective and wasteful mismanagement of their employees and that is to put money tolls on the roads and to make a special tax grab, by putting taxes at the pumps for all of the automotive gas purchases, or by increasing the number and cost of the traffic tickets and by laws now too. They want to do the same thing for the too often poorly managed medical services.. Only the fools would let them do this as well.
More and more tax grabs from the citizens clearly already over taxed tend not to improve anything but tend to be merely putting more money into buckets full of unplugged holes. What is seriously needed rather is to first fire all of the cost ineffective, useless managers of the public services and to now replace them with decent, honest, competent, hard working persons.

The useless MEDICAL quacks
All that glitters is not always gold, rather more often it is fool's gold applies to our medical care system sadly now as well.
One of the patient's frustrating medical approaches in dealing with the possible cures to one's personal sicknesses is the doctor's "trial and error approach". Too many doctors still trying to learn at the patient's expense. This is an approach where the doctor suggests a sample medicine, that is even generally not in a sufficient quantity to be of real help to you, and too often for an insufficient duration of time now as well, where he or she thus suggests you do try it.. Now all this approach is it too often does basically is that it just passes the buck, it gets you out of the doctor's sight and out of his r her mind rather too often, sadly it also really too often does not really help you.
So now also because of this first, initial useless visit to thus a pretentious doctor, medical quack, who is of no help to you next the problem it escalates next to many costly different doctors visits, at least 6 doctors and even much too many times as well. This is a clearly inefficient, poor medical system and a really bad management of it now too. Paying bad doctors for their incompetence, pretentious and insufficient services still is a very and unacceptable poor waste of the taxpayer money as well. It would be a lot better if only a competent doctor was available who would recommend easily, quickly real medical solution rather.
It is a useless, ludicrous myth to state or to believe that because a Medical Doctor she or he has a University degree, is recognized by a professional body that it is all a valid proof they now are valid, competent doctors and not rather still medical fools. Jesus himself had said that by their own deeds, their own fruits you do or can tell what anyone is really like, note by what they actually do.. so when I visit a family doctor a few times and he or she is unable to help me or they send me to another useless referral they now rightfully still to me are useless quacks, charge card happy doctors, who are of no real practical, beneficial help to me. The solution to all of this poor medical services here is very simple, just have each patient fill in an online personal evaluation form, survey of the doctors actual medical help and the the health minister's services and I am sure you will all know that at least 30 percent of the patients are still really dissatisfied with their doctors actual medical help, services.it is NO WONDER SO MANY SICK PERSONS TURNS TO THE TRIAGE, EMERGENCY WARDS IN HOSPITALS HOPING TO GET BETTER MEDICAL TREATMENT THERE, WHICH SADLY IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE NOW TOO.
What has amazed me is the existence of the many and continual. glaring unacceptable inadequacies in our health care systems and yet no one, health ministers and administrators seems to care to do anything about it still even for decades and why is that?
It seems I too do have to make thousands of detail posts on the net too about their mismanagements, unacceptable sins, abuses, wastes of taxpayer's monies before finally someone acts upon it.. What really bugs me is when I make a major exposition of the wrongs the governments next make a token pretentious change only. Never acceptable or enough.

Misleading MEDICAL HELP by doctors, pharmacies, corporations, governments
PLEASE DO TELL our mostly bad Health Ministers, Ministers of Consumer Affairs all now to really wizen up, today or replace them all ASAP
FIRSTLY TO BE OF REAL HELP TO A SICK PERSONS ONE HAS TO ACCURATELY DETERMINE THE REAL, ROOT, CAUSE OF HIS OR HER SICKNESS. And this still requires trained, real, competent medical doctors only and not any pretend doctors such as nurses or pharmacies now as well.
It is also now too obvious that the large medical and pharmaceutical CORPORATIONS EVEN THESE DAYS ARE TOO OFTEN STILL MISLEADING, LYING ABOUT THEIR SUPPORT, SERVICES, PRODUCTS for while all claiming to be here to serve the the good welfare of the citizens their SOLE AND main, primary purpose is to make for themselves only a maximum profit at all costs, even by clearly lying in the process , as they clearly too often still are not really providing fully effective medical products even.
A simple tour of the major drug stores, pharmaceutical chains will indicate to all even today that too many EVEN CLEARLY DISHONEST, MISDIRECTING , MISLEADING, COSTLY AND EXPENSIVE MEDICAL PRODUCTS AND ALL OPENLY CLAIMING TO BE OF SERIOUS HELP IN THE CURE, TREATMENT OF ALL KINDS OF DISEASES AND YET too many of THESE PRODUCTS ARE NOT PROVEN TO DO SO, THEIR OPENLY ADVERTISED DEGREE OF HELP IS SERIOUSLY QUESTIONABLE, UNSUBSTANTIATED AND EVEN TOO VAGUE AS WELL.
THE GREEDY PERSONS AND IMMORAL, PRICE GOUGING CORPORATIONS TOO OFTEN THESE DAYS ARE STILL FALSELY TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE SICK AND NEEDY PERSONS TO ROB AND PRICE GOUGE THEM. Bait the customers anyway YOU CAN to try to make a sale, profits are still THEIR too common false sales,marketing approach.. THESE CLEARLY UNACCEPTABLE LIARS, IMMORAL GROUPS ALSO EVEN FALSELY PASS THE BUCK, BY LYING AND CLAIMING IT IS SOMEONE ELSE'S RESPONSIBILITY TO REGULATE THE PRODUCTS, SALES, SERVICES THEY OFFER.
I had recently in a drug store noticed a display of pharmaceutical aid available to help with any sickness it seems but still they firstly do nor indicate the overall effectiveness.the amount and and the actual final costs of their products to do so. This is really still all unacceptable.

NDP accuses government of sweeping Niagara hospital problems 'under the rug' Toronto Star – There is no need to rush a report into troubles including the deaths of 31 patients from a superbug at the six-hospitals in the Niagara Health System before the Oct. 6 election, Premier Dalton McGuinty said .
This is more unacceptable typical Liberal crap, people do now get murdered in hospitals and the Liberals they do try to delay it, deny it, cover it up too..
Many persons in this decade in Canada are still also getting a hospital acquired sickness and many are even dying from it still too.. It is really unbelievable that many people are dying in hospitals even because of the shit disease, c-difficile still.. a common sickness spread and escalated even because the hospital's bathrooms also are not being cleaned adequately still and so this sickness it next spreads easily. Lazy Hospital employees are gossiping, goofing off, socializing, having a good time while patients die as a direct result now too. Poor house cleaning in hospitals is never ever acceptable. And absolutely mo one gets punished for it, not the health ministers, not the hospital administrators as well and this also is never ever acceptable

Did you ever notice how the rather too often ostrich health ministers still do generally refuse to basically address the clearly still inadequate Medicare, health system and it's serious shortcomings? Medicare which is like a an old, run downed, over used,vehicle that now needs long delays, loads of money , continually repair, and very expensive maintenance.
You also do find out how the bad, 9-5 Medicare system even in the major cities now is when you do go to use it, when you really do need it. You also find out the common long delays to even try to get adequate medical treatments for your minor or serious problems, serious sicknesses . And you also do find out firsthand that Medicare is not fully covered, not fully available readily for all your Medicare needs and you do find out that it is short staffed in optometrists, dermatologists, cardiologists, in many of the areas that your general practioner, family doctor generally refuses to touch, get involved in, mostly because he or she is incompetent to deal with these areas.
It is also an undeniable fact that too many seniors are poor, the do not spend enough money on food and thus get sick more easier, as well as one ages one has less strength to do house cleaning, epically elderly seniors and as a result they too easily pick up infections at home as a result as well and do pass it on to many others as well.
None of this perverse, pretense Medicare, Ministers are acceptable.

The sad unacceptable tragedies in Canada's too often perverse medical care systems
Look also now at this perversity even the main governments now do not even have an accurate, reasonable full record of the number of sick persons, citizens in Canada and as to how many of them do have diabetes, cancer, heart diseases or whatever. So how can they plan ahead or manage the Health system properly then? They cannot, they do not!
For that matter they do not even have record of the major cause of vehicular accidents in Canada per year now as well. The useless police who do the traffic accidents reports refuse to do this record keeping. But guess what they all likley do have a full record of the amount of money generated by the parking and speeding tickets in every major city and province.. what a false priority now here too.. None of this is ever acceptable too!
And the other tragedy is that in spite of their too often lack of their competences, unprofessionalism they the bad doctors and bad nurses they all still do get paid for it fully even , and are rarely chastised. None of this is ever acceptable too!
. Liars and incompetents is what we seem to have mostly still for managers in many of our Hopsitals and governments. None of this is ever acceptable too!

Hospital deaths account for half of deaths annually
Gastroenteritis (also known as gastro, gastric flu, tummy bug and stomach flu, (although unrelated to influenza) is inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, involving both the stomach and the small intestine (see also gastritis and enteritis) and resulting in acute diarrhea or by severe vomiting.. Infectious gastroenteritis which can often be seasonally common even in Hospitals now too may be caused by viruses, bacteria, or parasites. And it is important to distinguish between bacterial and viral infections in regard to the treatment as well.. Bacteria, and parasites can be treated with antibiotics but Viruses do not respond to antibiotics . Noroviruses are the leading cause of foodborne disease outbreaks worldwide, and may soon eclipse rotaviruses as the most common cause of severe pediatric gastroenteritis. Norovirus gastroenteritis can cause significant morbidity and mortality among children, the elderly, and the immunocompromised. Gastroenteritis CAN APRRENTLY BE TRREATED WITH A HONEY AND CINAMON TEA.
Now as you and your loved ones get older you too will spend more time in Doctor's offices, Hospitals, and convalescent, old age homes and will have wished that you had done something more about it all before too..
How to get better medical services overall? Well the wheel that makes the most noise seems to get the most grease still too..
Now many of us already do now about the all too-common Medical PATIENT killers like: -MEDICATION MISTAKES. Wrong pills! Wrong blood transfusions! Wrong intravenous drips! Don't bother even to guessing how often this happens. It's worse than your wildest nightmares. Unsupervised Doctors and Hospitals make many mistakes like these every hour. -DOCTORS' DIRTY HANDS. Incredibly, recent surveys show that doctors wash their hands between patients only half the time… and nearly 90% of stethoscopes harbor staph bacteria. -UNNEEDED SURGERY. Surgeons could have used many less costly approaches THAT WOULD HAVE LESS NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECTS AND QUICKER HEALING TOO choose instead to do the costly surgery – DOCTORS FAIL TO PRESCRIBE PROPER MEDICAL TEST . Medical Technicians have to be told what specific blood tests also have to be done first.. they do not automatically check for every possible sickness or diseases thus. HOSPITALS are filled with infection-causing bacteria that cannot be found anywhere else. Hospitals, which often house very large numbers of sick people, are the ideal breeding environment for the sometimes deadly bugs. Hospital patients generally have a lower level of immunity and offer little or no resistance to them. The hospital staff, due to constant exposure to the bugs, are fairly immune to them, but may pass them on to patients by touching them or their food, bedding, clothing, or medications.* Contrary to common belief, hospitals are among the most contaminated places in the world. In fact it does not take much dirt to become a breeding place for billions of deadly infectious bacteria.
* Doctors can be the worst transmitters of disease in hospitals. Most doctors do not wash their hands except before an operation, when they wear sterilized gloves and gowns anyway. They may sometimes touch many dozens of patients within several hours, one after the other, without washing their hands even once. Even the doctor's white gown is not as clean as it looks. It is only clean if it is washed every single day, which rarely happens.
* Bed sheets may be clean, but mattresses and pillows are not. The chance of being infected by bugs living in them is 1 in 20. * A hospital patient may receive up to 12 different kinds of medication, all of which produce side effects, SOME that can lead to serious complications and even death. AND SOME MEDICATIONS GIVEN ARE GIVEN IN ERROR AS WELL * NOT SURPRISING TO MANY PERSONS hospitals PATIENTS OFTEN are suffering from malnutrition due to a poor hospital diet OR BUDGET CONSTRAINTS. Malnutrition, even starvation was found to be the major cause of death among older people in hospitals.
Add the toxic side effects of the drugs, the presence of deadly bugs, as well as the stress and anxiety that accompany an illness and a stay in a hospital, and a poorly nourished elderly person NOW EVEN has very little chance of surviving
Anxiety stress relief vitamins and minerals work in different ways by providing nutrients which control the metabolism rate and the hormone levels within our bodies. By keeping these two things stable we can provide a better mechanism to cope with stress and anxiety inducing situations. Most of the recommended anxiety stress relief vitamins and minerals can be found in the foods that we eat and can simply be attained by eating a healthy and balanced diet covering all the major food groups. And that is why eating proper foods is important. . Also -I have often seen it myself, too many nurses and doctors wrongfully in no hurry to practically help the really sick persons. Now some of these clearly bad persons who still cannot face the negative reality about themselves, the ongoing especially bad nurses and doctors, lie and try to divert my truth by saying I hate doctors and nurses, so well let me make it very clear I do rightfully hate all bad, pretentious, lazy, no good doctors and nurses who are not doing their jobs properly and are causing other people to continue to suffer as a result.. and they should always be fired ASAP.. Hospital administrators included. Is that clear enough for them now? That includes now also all bad cops, bad politicians, bad church pastors now too.. https://thenonconformer.wordpress.com/2009/12/02/even-many-doctors-are-mainly-selfish-self-centered-want-to-get-rich-fast-too/
– MANY PATIENTS WANT THEIR medicine delivered regularly daily at the same time and now it seems to fluctuate through out different times of the day. they thus unnecessarily do worry about missing their medicine.. and for them the lack of consistency in a patient having now having a more a regular Nurse is an important issue.. a new nurse for them now almost everyday explains the medication delivery problems that still occur too often as well.. And hiring clearly ignoramuses, fools, as workers, counselors, cause they are cheap, inexpensive now is not doing a great service to anyone, is not a real, valid help for the elderly too
– Medicating to death elderly persons WITH ERROR PRONE PILL PUSHING DOCTORS AND NURSES" and/or "starving them now to death BY NOT PROPERLY FEEDING THEM", THE MOST COMMON APPROACHES I myself have often have seen now ARE NOT THE VIABLE, EFFECTIVE, BENEFICIAL, COST EFFECTIVE APPROACHES NOR ARE THEY APPRECIATED, HELPFUL, BUT STILL ARE RATHER AN IMMORAL APPROACH.
-Elderly persons need more special care cause they do tend to lack the basic vitamins found in our common foods that help also to reduce one's personal stress and anxiety.. for a hungry persons tends to be continually stressed and anxious and also do often manifest depression as well.. and what the classic treatment for depression is time, healing, by giving them proper nourishment, and proper rest and sleep.. in this case supplemented by proper pain killers, not improper pain killers and/or merely given proper sleeping pills too. It seems that appropriate medication given by a face mask if done immediately can alleviate further his panic and related breathing difficulties.. not just sleeping pills, or good food.. Now if you were also real , caring decent ministers in the federal government, then you and your provincial counterparts would supplement additional revenue to feed the elderly patients, who are being starved even murdered undeniably in old age homes, convalescent homes, hospitals in Canada, not just in 3rd world countries.. -Most everyone can realize that you really cannot separate the body, soul and spIrit, and that our physical health and related healings is also effected also by our self worth, stress, anxiety but doctors and Hospitals want to stay mainly within the direct medical areas of pills, surgeries.. and tend not to use beneficial depression counselors as well.. As a result some sick people definitely would now have healed quicker had their root personal problems also been looked at and proper counseling given..
– Clearly only fools cannot see that there is still very much that can be done to improve the management, delivery of both our health care system and also the care of the elderly, persons too. . see also http://ummmuhammadahmad.wordpress.com/2010/01/03/hospitals-are-a-major-health-hazard/#comment-112

A doctor is concerned that Manitoba labs are putting patients in danger , the province is now conducting an external review into the matter. Pediatric pathologist Dr. David Grynspan says he's noticed problems at provincial labs for the past two years. Last month, he submitted a 20-page report to the province which outlined concerns about heavy workloads, lack of accountability and some senior managers over-billing for work. Grynspan says those factors compromise patient safety. He says staffing levels may be to blame. Currently there are eight vacancies in the pathology department out of 46 positions. Grynspan says his report outlines one case where a patient's samples were misdiagnosed. Tory health critic Myrna Driedger says the province's external review led by Winnipeg doctor Sharon McDonald won't be objective. "I think we need a totally independent external review and an auditor on that committee to look into these allegations," says Driedger. Arlene Wilgosh, the board chair for Diagnostic Services Manitoba, the group which oversees the province's public labs says McDonald is bringing in a pathologist from outside the province, along with an independent labour lawyer to help in the external review. Grynspan says he doesn't agree with the review process and would like to see a completely external auditor do a thorough investigation of the pathology department. http://winnipeg.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20091211/wpg_pathology_091211/20091211/?hub=WinnipegHome

Quebec health officials reported on Nov 28, 2009 a very insignificant drop in hospital-acquired Clostridium difficile illnesses, shit disease, which causes serious abdominal cramping , diarrhea, and many deaths.. The number of cases fell to 4.3 cases in 10,000 from five cases. One case is still one too many now.. Good Medical, Hospital hygiene is still essential to battles C. difficile. The Quebec government too still has a long way to go to dealing with this adequately as well . Study shows sharing a hospital room increases your risk of picking up infections
The Canadian Press – TORONTO – A new study says sharing a hospital room increases your risk of picking up an infection during your stay. The study, by researchers from Queen's University in Kingston, Ont., shows that each new roommate raises your infection risk by about 10 per cent. Senior author Dr. Dick Zoutman says the findings suggest single-room hospital designs would be cheaper to build in the long run, because they would lower rates of costly hospital-acquired infections. The authors looked at rates of three common hospital infections among patients admitted to a southeastern Ontario hospital during a 4 1/2 year period ending in 2005. Previous studies have shown that rates of hospital infections are higher in multi-bed settings than when patients are housed one to a room. But few studies have actually looked at whether the number of roommates you have in hospital increases your risk of developing an infection like C. difficile or drug-resistant Staph aureus.
http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/100105/national/hospital_infections_roommates . Visitor restrictions in place at Trenton and Belleville hospitals – Dec 31, 2009 Trenton Memorial Hospital's inpatient unit is closed to visitors following an outbreak of the Norovirus. Quinte Health Care (QHC) announced the closure following a number of patients contracting a gastrointestinal illness , the Norovirus, on Wednesday, Dec. 30. Belleville General Hospital's Quinte 6 ward is also closed due to the same gastrointestinal illness. The Norovirus is highly contagious with symptoms including diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. Increased infection control procedures and visitor restrictions have been put in place.. Noroviruses are found in the stool or vomit of infected people. People can become infected with the virus in several ways, including: People are reminded not to visit patients at any QHC site if they are sick. Visitors must wash their hands upon entering and leaving the unit and they should not use the patient's washrooms or kitchens, rather they should go elsewhere.. Norovirus is also called viral gastroenteritis, food poisoning, and calicivirus. Noroviruses and Salmonella are a leading cause of foodborne illness outbreaks. Norovirus affects people of all ages. Outbreaks of norovirus infection also often occur in closed or semi-closed communities, such as long-term care facilities, overnight camps, hospitals, prisons, dormitories, and cruise ships where the infection spreads very rapidly by either person-to-person transmission or through contaminated food. Many Norovirus outbreaks have been traced to food that was handled by the infected person. Norovirus is rapidly inactivated by sufficient heating and by chlorine-based disinfectants, but the virus is less susceptible to alcohols and detergents, Gastrointestinal can apparently be treated with a tea beverage with honey and cinnamon.

Hospital, medical administrators should consider cheap, disposable, paper, clothing for all medical staff seriously!!! and save money on costs of medical diseases not being spread..
Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice: Clostridium difficile-Associated Disease : "The Perfect Storm" Has Arrived and it falsely kills many because it is not talked about enough too.. There should be weekly mandatory reporting of all hospital acquired infections, not just the number of Hospital deaths Have you also not noticed that most hospital patients, many of who are too too sick to get up, they do not wash their hands before they eat Personnel Cleanliness in Hopsitals and even the Hospital food ain't always that great still too.. -All medical staff must follow the hospital antibiotic prescribing policy and taking care that broad spectrum antibiotics are not given unnecessarily . -They all must wear disposable gloves and aprons, disposable lab coats, scrubs, when treating sick patients and those who have C. difficile infection and when dealing with, or cleaning equipment that could be contaminated (eg bedpans). -There must be regularly cleaning the hospital environment, including floors and surfaces, with disinfectant or detergent to get rid of spores, infections. -They must insure the keeping seriously sick patients, especially those who have C. difficile infection in isolation from those who don't. – Keeping clean and washing one's hands often are also essential . Too many Canadian professionals, workers next become too lax when they do think they have attained some kind of job security and fail to do their duties fully too, towards all others.
Deadly yet easily preventable bloodstream infections continue to plague American hospitals because facility administrators fail to commit resources and attention to the problem, according to a survey of medical professionals released Monday. An estimated 80,000 American patients per year develop catheter-related bloodstream infections, or CRBSIs — which can occur when tubes that are inserted into a vein to monitor blood flow or deliver medication and nutrients are improperly prepared or left in longer than necessary. About 30,000 patients die as a result, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, accounting for nearly a third of annual deaths from hospital-acquired infections in the United States.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A report released Thursday by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Florida Medical Examiner's Commission revealed that common prescription drugs were responsible for more deaths in 2007 than common illegal drugs." The rate of deaths caused by prescription drugs is over three times as high as the rate of deaths caused by all illicit drugs combined," said Director of the Office of Drug Control Bill Janes. Deaths involving the use of oxycodone, methadone, cocaine, alcohol, and heroin all rose in 2007, that according to the report. http://swampie.wordpress.com/2008/06/12/fdle-pharmaceuticals-kill-more-than-street-drugs/
According to the Lifesaving Society of Canada, nearly 500 people die every year in water-related accidents, but still thousands die every year due to a hospital acquired sickness, medical personnel errors, medical indifference or negligence….. much more than all those persons who die of car accidents as well.
Now in 2007 about 3000 persons in Canada had died to road accident deaths, about 1/3 of how many persons had now even died due to a hospital acquired infection and where about 225,000 Canadian patients a year suffer from hospital-acquired infections.
When the Architects had designed to save money hospitals and old age homes with shared bathrooms did they also now consider the number of shared infections which would kill people next as well? Now what about those bad, uncaring medical administrators, ministers who do not care about how many patients still now got killed, abused, all they seem to care about is that things run continually, and their employees are happy!
Also rotavirus, norovirus, gastritis, gastroenteritis, C-DIFFICILE, ARE ALL VERY QUICKLY SPREAD BUT NOT SO EASILY CURED and what many media fail to report is that both doctors and nurses themselves are too often the biggest carriers.
AND SPEEDING IS NOT THE CAUSE OF MAIN ACCIDENTS, OR ROAD DEATHS NOW TOO.. https://thenonconformer.wordpress.com/2009/09/10/speeding-is-not-the-major-cause-of-car-accidents-still/
The Number one Health Risk Gallstones in the Liver
December 2, 2009
Too many Doctors are mainly selfish, self centered, want to get rich fast
A poorly managed Hospital and personnel is still always rightfully unacceptable even if they are McGill Hospitals.
I also here really could not help but notice that the aspiring, ambitious doctors in training work much harder over those who have graduated and who now tend to sit back on their laurels.
The governments have basically passed down the responsibility of the management of the health care systems to the individual hospitals, who basically have no interest in seeing, managing medical costs reductions, or improving their medical performances, rather it is to their sole interest that the gravy train flows abundantly, after all more patients, means more money for Hospital administrators, ombudsmen doctors and nurses and more job guarantees for them too.a-2 Next absurdly the government asked that I manage the health care system personally and I should file a complain with each doctor, Hospital that I am dissatisfied with, and even supplied me the name and address of their responsible boards.
Me doing now freely all of the governments work with our Ministers, civil and public servants get paid, rather for stealing the taxpayer's money.b-1 Firstly I have said many times already that anyone going to a charge happy private Medical doctor when you are seriously ill is a waste of them, for generally as I have often experiences now as well he or she are not adequately qualified nor does he have the necessity equipment to diagnose quickly and accurately the problem never mind deal quickly next with it's solution.
If you are seriously ill you still do have to go to a Hospital, triage, the emergency department.. cause they have all the medical equipment there need for the serious testing's.
b-2 Some times they there can help you at the triage, emergency and some times not. Mind you are not insured of immediate success here cause you are put often on a waiting list even often next at least 6 months or more.
I have also been waiting one year to see a new, knee specialist at the McGill Montreal General Hospital already.
Now I have BEEN TO SEVEN hospitals in the last 20 years I have also directly now already directly dealt with 3 Montreal Hospital ombudsmen already because of their poor medical delivery services, and the bigger the Hospital the less they do even care about your complaint, and the less likely you or I will even get it dealt with too
No Hospital here on its own now had provided adequate follow-up, medical services to me, rather I was forced to complain about the poor services, and only in one hospital did the complaint help. Now if I should continue to do the health Minister's job should I also not get his pay now too?
Friday evening the RVH ombudsman finally returns my call and now passed my file to someone else.. I will see what the results next are here too.
An administrative doctor from McGill next had called me and had falsely tried to justify the RVH receptionist sending almost all of the patients to see the very same doctors at a private clinic where they will be charged more for the same service by saying all Hospital are overcrowded.. he must have thought I was really stupid.. for I have been employed as an engineering contract manager and if the fabrication shop gave the same false excuses for their late product deliveries in reality they next went out of business, because rightfully in the private sector clients did not accept such lame excuses. The same clearly stupid, pretentious Doctor had asked if my problem that I have now had for over 6 months had cured itself since last week when I saw the RVH doctor? Hoping naively he would not have to work? or just dumb? If miracles mow here were so common why would we need the doctors ehh?Nice to be in the public service where you can take it easy and blame another department for your own lack of real, viable productivity. And now how stupid do they really think we are? Fire rightfully very bad persons that I have dealt with so far too here. MEANWHILE I AM STILL WAITING HERE FOR POSITIVE RESULTS TOO.
- Overuse of antibiotics and lab tests to protect against malpractice lawsuits (Pennsylvania State University estimates that as much as 91 percent of our nation's healthcare expenditures are related to defensive medicine);
- significant Fraud in Medicare claims ;
- Administrative inefficiency and redundant paperwork;
- Medical mistakes;
- Preventable conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes
McGill University, one of the top ranking medical school in North American attracts many American students and competes with top American universities. The numbers of Americans enrolling in Canadian colleges has risen around 90 percent over the past four years. But how many American students want to attend a medical University that wrongfully, and clearly abuses the local citizens of Montreal Canada? cause these clearly selfish self-centered little local doctors cannot see the whole picture, how their poor actions, inactions affect the health care of many now, next. McGill is making a fortune on fees for it's out-of-town medical students it seems and uses them in their hospitals to a point that the rest of the medical staff, resources cannot help the local people of Montreal now adequately too.
What caused this condition or ailment for after all an experienced Doctor should be knowledgeable?
- When was it first diagnosed?
- How is he now treating it?
- Has it gotten better or worse?
- When did the patient first begin to noticeably improve or worsen?
- What medication makes it better?
- What medication makes it worse?
- What is the Doctor doing now about it?
- what medication is now being given ?
- what tests have been done,?
- what were the results of the test?

We had the privilege of connecting with Erin Rawstron, avid outdoor adventure seeking mama and ER Doctor. We are so excited to share this interview on tips for co-skiing with your child, with our community. Erin is an outdoor influencer, who continues to crave an outdoor lifestyle in between her long work hours and motherhood. Erin is one of many mamas trying to encourage, motivate, and influence other mamas to enjoy the outdoor community with their children.
How old is your child, and what motivates you to be active outside with your child in tow?
Our daughter Kya, is 16 months old (but, as evidenced by her love of the word 'no' I would swear she is 2). Getting outside with her is an integral part of maintaining my sanity and feeling human. As a busy ER doc, sometimes I feel the only true place I can reset is out in the mountains; and, even if that means taking a busy toddler (and ALL her gear) along with me, it is SO worth it.
We first took Kya camping at 3 weeks old and haven't looked back since! We have slowly been honing our skills at layering her properly for winter day-skis or hikes/snowshoes and have even done a couple of multi-day ski hut trips. Our first backcountry ski trip (at 4 months) onto Tetrahedron park was particularly memorable as I carried a huge multi day backpack on my back while wearing Kya kangaroo style on my front; and, even more impressively, my husband managed to carry an entire pack-n-play into the hut. I can't remember the last time we were so sore after an approach into the backcountry.
Recently (at 15 months), we took her ski touring for a couple days in the Rockies; but by then we had thankfully discovered a Ski Chariot and Pea Pod sleep tent for lighter weight packing.
What type of skiing have you done so far with Kya?
Mostly backcountry ( in safe avalanche conditions) and resort skiing.
How old do you think kids have to be to learn to ski?
On their own skis? Much older than Kya! We tried getting her on skis at 16 months- she could barely stand in her skis so we ended up holding her up all the way down the hill. She tolerated 'skiing' for about 30 mins but seemed much more enthused about snacks and naps that day.
In an Ergo, as soon as mom feels ready to get outside! Actually, the younger the better- on our Tetrahedron hut trip she snoozed the whole way in, and because I was breast feeding we didn't even have to bring any food for her I to the hut.
What is your #1 (MUST KNOW) tip for mamas when skiing with toddlers/babies?
Babies: They are pretty much the easiest age to take outside! It took me a while to learn this, but if you're breastfeeding, they can feed right from the Ergo so you don't have to take them out to give them a snack. If you formula feed, you can pre-make the bottles, keep them in an outside pouch of your backpack then 'warm up' the bottle against your chest about half an hour before you think they'll need a feed.
Toddlers: Normally 'off limits' treats, like: soothers, brownies and cookies, are your best friend. Toddlers don't appreciate the outdoors like we do, so if feeding your normally healthy kid a brownie or two, helps them enjoy their time outside, just go with it!
Do you typically ski alone with your child, or do you have a partner to help out? Is it possible for mama's to ski alone? What do you recommend from your experience so far?
Normally, I ski in groups or with my husband. Having somebody to help grab gear from your bag, readjust a chariot pole, hand baby a snack etc. is invaluable. Having a kid outside in the cold is not an easy task, so the more hands the better.
I have done a couple snow walks and snowshoe hikes alone with Kya. I made sure to pick safe terrain (in cell reception) and to keep the trip short (under 2 hours). I loved the peace and confidence that came from being alone in the mountains, but I wouldn't recommend venturing off known trails with a little one in tow.
I have mom friends who will cross country ski (with a Chariot), alone on Resort x-country ski trails. They feel super safe and love that there are others around to help if needed.
How do you co-ski with your child? Example: Child in carrier/ergo-front or back (If so is it necessary for the child to wear a helmet-if you down -hill ski vs cross country?)
Last season I wore her in and Ergo on the front (4-8 months). This made me feel most comfortable as I could control her temperature well, feed her and make sure she was well secured.
This season (16 months), we either put her in the Chariot (which works for a max of 1-2 hours), or I wear her in an Ergo on my back (have done this for up to 5 hours- with snack breaks). She LOVES the Ergo because she gets to go fast with me downhill.
Helmets are a must for us for any pace beyond a slow walk. We made the mistake of forgetting Kya's helmet for our last long descent out of a hut in the Rockies. Kya had a blast zipping down the hill on my back, but it would have been a whole different story if we had taken a fall. Further, our chariot tipped a couple of times (on fast windy descents), luckily Kya wasn't in it at the time, but any time she is, ideally she is wearing a helmet and is well secured with shoulder and waist straps. Always always always better to be safe than sorry.
What is your favourite "must have" ski gear for either parents, kids, or both when skiing with kids.
Parents: Ergo all the way!
Kids: Kya has a little face mask/neck warmer that helps keep her warm in negative temperatures. We skiied without worry in the Rockies with this and a $30 puffy snow suit from Amazon.
Final words of advice from Erin
It doesn't have to be expensive or scary to get outside with your kid. Start short and easy and work your way up to bigger days. You'll be surprised at your own strength. Further, don't let your child's temperament dissuade you from trying outdoor things. Kya couldn't nap for longer than 40 minutes for her whole first year and still isn't sleeping through the night; she is busy, rambunctious and strong willed. Her energy challenges us daily while inside but once we put her in the Ergo and get into nature, she will sleep for hours, or ( shockingly) just sit there calmly and enjoy the scenery.
Happy Adventuring!

Last month Caudalie kindly sent me their limited-edition gold Beauty Elixir, a cult product favoured by make-up artists, beauty junkies and celebrities.
Caudalie is a French skincare company with their trademark being grape-oriented skincare products. Originating in vineyards in Bordeaux, Caudalie recycles the grape seed oil usually thrown away during harvesting to produce pioneering natural formulas that create an effective and luxurious beauty range.
It can be used as a toner, to set make-up and to re-hydrate after a workout. What I love about this product is that not only does it smell great, it can be used on the run. It's quick and easy. All it requires is a quick shake and then I can spritz away.
It's lovely to have in my bag when I go to the gym, especially after a session with Graeme Starkey (team GG). That man knows how to get me working, because to quote "wishy washy sessions lead to wishy washy results". It is so refreshing spritzing it like mad onto my red, sweaty face.
Girls who lift, run, train need a bit of Caudalie in their life. In fact, so do guys.
The beauty elixir contains 100% natural ingredients including grapes extracted from a French vineyard that makes high end wine, only available to buy in Harrods. Now that is my kinda vintage. I'm a self confessed wine snob so maybe that's why I love it so much. The stuff I get is so tasty that even my two year old tries to knock it back. What can I say? The boy eats olives and prawns, he has a good palate. Long may it last.
After a night on the town, knocking champers back like a desperate Mum who doesn't get out much, this was a welcomed product the following morning. It's great to spritz after a sauna or steam room too.
The beauty elixir is the first Caudalie product I have used and I have to say, it is pretty addictive. I find it hard to put down. The product is very hydrating and is meant to visibly reduce the size of pores after 26 days. I've been making a fair amount of Insta stories, often in a rush with no makeup on and my skin has been looking pretty clear and silky. My eyes are a little baggy though, hopefully Caudalie have some nice eye cream I can test out next. I am also keen to try their acid toner.
I just love a quality product. Thanks Caudalie for giving me the glow.

None of our pilgrims can accuse us of a boring or empty day…
Our travelers arrived in Tel Aviv Tuesday afternoon, local time. After clearing customs, collecting their bags, and waiting patiently for two members on a later flight, we began our journey together, with 17 pilgrims headed to Nazareth.
Traffic in Israel can be challenging and today was no exception. The 70 mile journey took over 2.5 hours, and while the bus provided some respite, we were all hungry and ready to take a break from traveling.
Villa Nazareth is situated in the Old City of Nazareth, just above the Orthodox Church of the Annunciation and close to restaurants and all the sights in the Old City. In addition to a great location, amazing staff, and clean and comfortable rooms, Villa Nazareth has some of the best food. They frequently accommodate our changing schedule and are happy to meet every dietary requirement we can throw at them.
Today started at The Mar Elias Educational Institute, founded by Abuna Chacour, the author of one of the greatest introductions to the Holy Land, "[amazon_textlink asin='0800793218′ text='Blood Brothers' template='ProductLink' store='progrespilgri-20′ marketplace='US' link_id='47cb1fb3-9e3c-11e7-94ed-433193801312′]". Our tour started with a visit the the church, followed by a conversation with a professor at the school. He shared stories of the challenges faced by the school and its students, who are drawn to the academic rigor and interfaith mandate of the school. Unlike many schools in Israel, Mar Elias has Muslim, Christian, and Druze students.
Following our conversations with staff, and hundreds of selfies with the students, we enjoyed an amazing lunch at Mar Elias before returning to Nazareth.
We began our tour of Nazareth at the Basilica of the Annunciation, one of two traditional sites where Gabriel appeared to Mary to tell her of the impending birth of the Christ Child. The Basilica features a gallery of interpretations of Mary with Christ. Each mosaic shows Mary and Christ through the eyes of Christians in that land. For example, here you can see the mosaics from Scotland and China.
After exploring the Basilica, we visited the Synagogue Church with our guide and friend, Ghada Boulos. Here is a great video of her singing the Ave Maria in the church:
We try to update Facebook and Instagram a few times a day, so please make sure you follow us there for the most recent pictures.
Shalom and Salaam.

The pony wars are heating up.
For the first time in decades, the reborn Chevrolet Camaro is outselling the Ford Mustang. But neither maker seems ready to settle in and accept the status quo. While Chevy hopes to increase its appeal with the long-anticipated Camaro Convertible, Ford is putting a premium on performance hoping to out-muscle its cross-town competition and regain its position as pony car king-of-the-hill.
Ford pulled a rabbit out of its corporate hat at the Los Angeles Auto Show, revealing an all-new V6 pumping out an impressive 305 horsepower – and, equally impressive, 30 mpg on the highway. Not all that long ago, that would have been a solid figure for the bigger, V8-powered Mustang GT. So, with that in mind, the automaker is pushing into what, not that long ago would have been supercar territory, the 2011 Ford Mustang GT –which debuts at next month's Detroit Auto Show — will pump out a solid 412 horsepower and a tire-spinning 390 pound-feet of torque.
Consider that the 1995 Mustang GT, which heralded the return of V8 power, made what was, at the time, the seemingly impossible 215 horsepower. When the pony car was switched to the 4.6-liter eight-banger, in 1995, the numbers jumped to 300 hp and 320 lb-ft.
To get there, Ford engineers came up with an entirely new big-block engine, abandoning the unremarkable 4.6-liter powertrain for an all-new 5.0-liter V-8. Yep, the big 5-point-0. It's the displacement Mustang has long been known for, says Bob Fascetti, who oversees large engine development at Ford, "but with the technology right for today."
(For a look at the all-new Boss 302R, Click Here.)
While Detroit has often lived by the mantra that "bigger is better," that's not necessarily the case, these days. There's a concerted push towards smaller engines using alternatives means to boost both performance and fuel economy. Ford's very own Taurus SHO is a great example, its V6 pumping 365 horsepower out of just 3.5 liters using twin turbocharging and direct injection.
But there are times when they really is no replacement for displacement, or so Ford is betting with the naturally-aspirated 2011 Mustang GT. Not that this is your classic chunk of cast iron. The new pony car's powertrain is a Dual-Overhead Carm, 32-valve all-aluminum design with Twin-Independent Variable Cam Timing. The newly-designed heads use new, compact roller fingers and a slick tuned composite intake manifold.
"The heart of the engine is in the breathing," contends the 5.0-liter's chief engineer, Mike Harrison.
Significantly, Ford has given the 2011 Mustang GT a tentative highway fuel economy rating of 25 mpg. (The EPA won't weigh in with official numbers until closer to next year's formal launch.)
Time was when horsepower was all that mattered to pony car fans. These days, muscle has to be matched with agility. While we'll have to wait to make our own judgment, Ford is clearly taking what appear to be some of the right steps.
It's upgrading key suspension components on the 2011 Mustang GT, and it's switching to a rack-mounted electric power-assist steering systems, or E-PAS, on the '11 model. Company officials claim that will yield more precise and responsive handling and better road feel. E-PAS also yields better fuel economy by reducing the frictional losses of a conventional hydraulic power steering pump.
Braking power is as important as horsepower and for those looking for maximum stopping capability, Ford will offer optional Brembo brakes on the 2011 Mustang GT, along with a 19-inch wheel package.
We'll have to wait for pricing, though considering the tough battle Ford has found itself facing, we expect to see the maker hold close to the current numbers for the base GT, in the $35,000 range.
Barring some last minute mathematical miracle, the Chevrolet Camaro is expected to grab the top spot in the pony car sales sweepstakes for 2009, the first time that has happened in decades. For their part, Ford officials try to minimize the pain and agony this is causing. They insist they don't really care who's first, but it's hard to take that as much more than rationalization.
"I would never, ever judge the success of a sports car (like Camaro) in its first 18 months," says Ford's marketing czar, Jim Farley, putting a spin on things. "You have to judge its success after everyone who wanted one gets one. The real measure is long-term."
That's not entirely untrue, but be sure that Ford will do everything it can to win back some of those buyers who might be considering Camaro in the years ahead. The new 5.0-liter engine will be a big draw. But in reality, the GT is likely to remain a distant second to the V6 in overall Mustang sales. But when you add them both together, they give Ford something to crow about.

text: FishPig 0 Posted August 7, 2019 Hi, I recently bought the above bike and I'm not a fan of the footboards. I'd like to replace them with footpegs. Is it just a case of getting the correct pegs, removing the boards and fitting the pegs, or is it a bit more than that? Any and all advice welcome and thanks in advance for your thoughts on this.

The purpose of this blog series – is to share my preparations for the Arctic Circle 2019 Arts & Sciences Expedition Residency, an international exchange between professionals from different disciplines and parts of the globe on climate change issues.
What is the Kickstarter Connection?
I'm happy to say we are going into the 7th day of my Kickstarter campaign to reach a goal of $7500 in pledges by March 31. This is a funding platform used for professional creative projects. I have developed this kickstarter to help me get to the Arctic Circle 2019 Arts & Sciences Expedition Residency Svalbard Norway June 9 – 26. If successful in reaching the $7500 goal by the March 31st, supporter/backers receive a thank you gift listed beside the amount they pledged at the Kickstarter page upon completion of my residency project being funded.
About The tall ship, Antigua
The pictures above show the tall ship, The Antigua, and its layout. Its 162 feet in length with 16 cabins and 3 decks. We'll be sailing amongst the glaciers and fjords of the four islands that comprise Svalbard Archipelago, part of Norway, but quite a bit further north. While writing this in the short dark days of Canada's February, I'm dreaming of the June Solstice inside the Arctic Circle with 24 hours of daylight. Perfect for working on my creative research collaborations, photography and water colour painting sketches.
Previous Canadian Arctic Circle Residency 2013
It will be a stark contrast to my January/February 2013 self-directed artist residency inside the Canadian Arctic Circle. For that research I had purchased a Nikon D600 I was told was ideal for low light. There was a significant body of work that came out of that residency that has shown locally, across Canada and internationally.
The 2 1/2 Week Expedition versus Getting There
The 2 1/2 week Expedition on a tall ship will be both a professional and personal adventure. Developing, launching and promoting a kickstarter campaign for the first time is a steep learning curve for me.
I'm grateful for each pledge, and for my Kickstarter link to be shared with friends, family, colleagues, strangers, groups and more.
Having a committed core group of supporters who believe in my mission and who will promote the kickstarter for pledges is crucial to the success of reaching the $7500 goal in pledges by March 31.
Many of my supporters are motivated by my art contributing to climate change discussions and this Arctic Circle Expedition being important to furthering this cause.

CAIR's Whopper of the Day
Normally I ignore these clowns, because they are such obviously obfuscating frauds, yet when they bark, a lot of politically correct morons run for the hills, so I like to keep on eye on not so much what they are kvetching about at any given time, but who they aim their bullshit toward, and whether their target then cowers and complies to their ridiculous demands.
Well, those funny folks at the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) are at it again, this time firing off another of their high dudgeon press releases lambasting someone for associating Islam with terrorists who have declared their objective to be the creation–through the slaughter of all infidels who refuse to convert to Islam (or are granted "dhimmitude" status, which at this point doesn't seem to be an option they are willing to offer anybody)–of a world-wide Caliphate.
Their latest target is Colorado's Rep. Tom Tancredo, for sending a letter noting his concern about the design proposed for a planned memorial to the victims of Flight 93, who on September 11 fought back against their Islamofascist hijackers and forced the plane to crash in a field in Shanksville, PA.
The memorial's design has been raising a ruckus in the blogosphere. It's been called questionable, at best, by some; brainlessly, obnoxiously insensitive–just plain fucking dumb–by others.
Me? Hey, if they could come up with the bullshit they plan to put down at Ground Zero, there is pretty much nothing these memorial committee types could dream up that surprises me in the least (see Mark Steyn). Collectively, they are–whether family members are involved or not–brainless SOBs who need to stopped.
But CAIR's press release contained one particular sentence–an aside, actually–that just beggared reality:
crescent itself has no religious significance in Islam, but is commonly
associated with that faith.)
Yeah, right. The crescent has no symbolic significance:
"In 1299, conquering what is now Turkey, Sultan Osman had a vision of a crescent moon stretching over the world; it thus became a symbol of the Ottoman dynasty, and when Constantinople fell to Muhammad II in 1453, the crescent came to represent both Islam and the Turkish empire. The star was added by Sultan Selim III in 1793 (its five points being established in 1844)."
I don't know which is worse: that these CAIR bastards think Americans are such stupid cows that we'll continue to buy their bullshit, or that there are too many politically correct moronic motherfuckers who do buy it, or are plain afraid to just smack these duplicitous fuckers in the face and tell them, "Shut the fuck up!"

We continue our journey in the book of Acts—as the early church attempts to develop and assert their own identity and vision and mission. In this work, they drew on the parables of Jesus, including the questions raised by the parable of the Good Samaritan: Who is my neighbor? And what do we have to give?

Life member of Landcare and community stalwart, Sedgwick resident Audrey Drechsler, has received an OAM for services to agriculture and the community.
Mrs Drechsler has been a member of the Country Women's Association, the school committee and the committee for Bendigo's technical college as well as a long involvement in Landcare of which she is a life member.
Now 86, she tries to avoid office bearing roles. But she still sometimes just feels like she has time to turn around at home before she's out again.
Mrs Drechsler gets up every morning at 5am, a lifetime habit. When she was a child she helped her father in his bakery, then as an adult there was always cows to milk or sandwiches to cut for the shearers.
Now Mrs Drechsler writes letters or reads. She enjoys biography, and travel tales, and writes to her many friends all over the world, in Holland, England and Vienna.
Her life of community service began as a child in Warrandyte.
"My parents were very involved in Warrandyte," Mrs Drechsler said.
"We had the women's Hospital Auxiliary in our lounge, and Dad was the captain of the fire brigade, and we've always been civically minded people."
When her father's health began to fail the family moved to Middle Park in Melbourne. There Mrs Drechsler was a stenographer for the Democratic Labour Party, where she met her husband.
It was during this time she fell in love with cows, while helping on a farm at Leongatha.
Mrs Drechsler moved to Sedgewick when she married, where she has lived ever since.
With her husband she farmed sheep on about 560 hectares.
Mrs Drechsler loves to travel. She likes to meet interesting people and see interesting things. It's taken her all over the world.
In her 20s it meant travelling through Western Australia and the Kimberleys with a group of other young people.
Ten years ago she went to India, for the second time.
Mrs Drechsler plans to keep up her community involvement as long as she can.
"I love life, I enjoy myself, and I've got wonderful friends," Mrs Drechsler said.

AkzoNobels operational Eco-Efficiency programme turns rainwater into paint
Posted: Thursday 7th April 2011
Ingenious engineers at AkzoNobels factory in Prudhoe are harvesting rainwater for paint production as part of the companys operational Eco-Efficiency programme.
The project enables AkzoNobel to harvest up to 1.7 million litres of rainwater per year, potentially cutting the factorys annual water usage in half. The biggest improvement that the operational Eco-Efficiency programme has delivered comes from supplying the water to the production line over 20 times faster than previously. Water can now be supplied at a rate of up to 500L/min due to higher water pressure and on-site storage and this generates Batch Cycle Time savings of 50 per cent on some Cuprinol production lines.
The rainwater harvesting project costs will have been paid back in just one year through a £10,000 saving on the factorys water bill.
Steve Hawes, the engineer who masterminded the project said: We took the opportunity to look at harvesting rainwater while reviewing the best ways of increasing efficiency in our production process. We are delighted with the results of the programme, we have significantly reduced our production footprint and the initiative will pay for itself in just one year.
How it works:
Two on-site holding tanks collect rainwater from sump pump units situated at the bottom of four key downpipes from the main factory roof
The tank levels are maintained by a domestic water-fed safety stock, which can be used in dry periods to ensure consistent water availability for production
When any water outlet is operated, the pumping station senses the drop in system pressure and starts the pump
The harvested rainwater is pumped through a 5 micron filter and an ultra-violet sterilization unit so that the water used has zero bugs
AkzoNobel could roll out the rainwater harvesting scheme to additional locations if rainwater capture points can be identified and achievable water volumes are viable.

Last week, I finally convinced Tep to go to the Magical Festival Village here in Doha, Qatar. I've been seeing a lot of posts from my friends lately about having a great time visiting this European inspired place.
Tag: Qatar
Orient Pearl Restaurant DohaBy Maria Ingrid on February 27, 2017
This restaurant is located opposite the office where I used to work three years ago. During that time, they were still constructing this place, and most of us were very excited to dine here since it is new in the area. However, when they finally opened, we heard and read a lot of good and bad reviews. Sadly, the bad comments took the best of us, so we prolong our decision to try eating here, until I resigned at that company.
A Quiet Spot in the Middle of the City | Cafe # 999By Maria Ingrid on February 12, 2017
Every now and then, I always see to it that I revisit our Entertainer Qatar App to check out some restaurants that we haven't tried yet. While browsing, I stumbled upon this place called Cafe # 999. Immediately, I researched about it and its location.
A Fusion of Eastern and Western Cuisines | Teatro, City Centre Rotana DohaBy Maria Ingrid on February 11, 2017
Last week, I attended a bridal shower of a friend held at Teatro Restaurant in City Center Rotana Doha. Whenever I visit a restaurant located inside a hotel, I always make it a point to check their menus and read some reviews, so I will know what to expect once I am there. But I made this an exception, because I was just invited to this event.
Chopsticks Restaurant | Wyndham Grand Regency Hotel DohaBy Maria Ingrid on February 8, 2017
It was another Thursday night, when Tep and I were looking for some place to eat after attending a mass. I was craving for some salmon sashimi that time, so I checked my Entertainer Qatar App to look for some Asian restaurants. Since it was a Thursday night, we thought that most people will be out dining, so I've called the places before going, to check if they can still accommodate us.
