Silvia and Peter de Marco know their way around a pizza oven. That's why they went straight to Naples and "The God of Pizza Ovens", Stefano Ferrara, for their new cooker. "She's a little monster," explains Silvia. "She's the heartbeat of Chicco Palms."
The siblings, with Phillip Tropeano, Natalie Albany, Ernesto Sestito and Domenic Maurici (who between them run Pizza e Mozzarella Bar, Borsa Pasta Cucina and Chicken and Pig) form the team behind Chicco Palms. It's a California-inspired pizza restaurant and bar with a breezy, Palm Springs vibe. We last visited the site – on Henley Beach Road in Brooklyn Park – back in October. Since then the few remnants of the former Barnacle Bill identity have been removed. Standing in their place is a new eatery offering old-school hospitality.
Roman-style pizzas and Italo-American dishes – such as spaghetti and meatballs, gnocchi pomodoro and home-baked panini (served at lunch only) – make up the menu. The drinks selection firmly grounds Chicco Palms in a contemporary Australian setting. Wines are from Italy and SA only, and the tinnies are served in custom, red stubbie holders, which Silvia says will be available to buy soon ("so please stop pinching them").
There's also the Palm Freeze – a frozen cocktail with rum, mango, white wine and lime – that has "next stop, the beach" written all over it.
Chicco Palms also offers a giro (literally "to go around") dining option for groups of four or more. For $25 a head you get a selection of pizzas to share. The $35 option comes with antipasto too. And for $45 you get the lot – pizza, antipasto, pasta and roasted meats. "The aim is to have you rolling out the door," says Silvia. "We're all from southern-Italian backgrounds and it's embarrassing for us to see no food leftover."
MASH Design's James Brown – who also holds a stake in the project – has remodelled the former fish 'n' chip shop into something very cool. A large extension with porthole windows and a crisp coat of white paint now stands behind a besser-brick façade. Vintage photographs hang inside and kitsch checkerboard linoleum covers the floor and walls. There's a resemblance to fellow dough-slingers Sunny's, and even Melbourne's Good Heavens, which also cites Palm Springs as its key inspiration. With our similar summer climates and penchant for daytime drinking, Cali-cool is understandably on-trend.
Silvia says she loved the suburban bar culture of Melbourne, where she lived for seven years, and sees Chicco Palms as a step towards decentralising the scene here in Adelaide. So far the local response has been overwhelming and it's matched by the number of people travelling across the city to try pizza, Chicco style.

One or two people have enquired about progress on this Blog.
The very limited appetite I have currently for writing and historical research is being focused on the Alianore Audley II book. I also have very little spare time because of family responsibilities.
If anyone wants to write a guest article they have only to offer. Otherwise it will have to be a wait until the right planets align.

Happy Sunday everyone! I pray that your day has been blessed and that as you head into this next week you seek and keep God at the main focus of everything you do; I promise this will make your days a hundred times better.
This last week was the nine year anniversary of my mom's passing away. The LORD truly comforted me through it this year. Of course anniversaries, birthdays and mother's day are hard… but, for me sometimes the days leading up to and the days following those "calendared" days are are even harder. This year though, the good LORD walked me through it… step by step.
One of the sites I follow called (in)courage must have gotten the memo because post after post leading up to, and even after, the day were so encouraging and were filled with the words I needed to hear. One lady talked about the loss of her father and how God has walked her through it but those days of grief still hit at even the most unexpected times. While another reminded me that whatever pain or anxiety I am facing, rather than fearing it or dwelling in it I need to embrace it. Because I am never alone and I can do all, not some or most, but "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13)
Also, this year Mama and Papa gave me some of the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen and a balloon with a flower on it; which may seem small to you but meant the world to me. Last year, I started a tradition of letting a balloon go on the anniversary of the day my mom went home to Jesus. Why? Well, when I was younger my mom would tell me that when you let a balloon go it would float way up high past the clouds and GOD and all of the angels would have a party. …I would say that the day you got to go home to be with Jesus and were relieved of all your pain, is cause for celebration.
Now, I had been praying that the balloon wouldn't get stuck in our trees and would float effortlessly into the open, blue sky. However, as soon as I released it, it went back into our yard and started towards the trees. But, somehow it managed to float under and through the branches and make its way back into open sky. (Insert your own personal relevant metaphor here.)
As GOD would have it the same day happens to be one of my younger brother's birthday. So the day was filled with fun adventures and praises to GOD for the life of this funny, honest, GOD fearing young man.
Also, our tortoise had babies and the other day a family friend was over and found one of them roaming around. I asked Mama if I may have him and she said "Yes." I love him and his name is Methuselah. (Thoosie for short; thanks to a candle in the window guest!)
It may not be exactly how/when we want it to be but GOD always has that beautifully, wonderful way of showing us His amazing grace. He takes the hardest, darkest parts of ourselves and shines His light into our lives so brightly, that rather than hiding the hard, fear causing, stress inducing stuff in the "dark corners" of our minds, we start to embrace every part of the messy, crazy, but beautiful life that we have been blessed with.
Numbers 6: 24-26
In Jesus Name

It's a pity…
In a rare show of workmanship in electrical goods imported to the Czech Republic, my portable stereo has worked well for 15 years – okay – so the casette player died some time ago, but that's a dead format innit? I bought it when I lived in Prague for a while in the mid nineties – and it withstood at least 11 house moves. I'd marked my favourite British radio station – Radio 4 – on the dial with nail varnish, but to be honest, hadn't given the stereo a second thought after discovering how bad the music played on commercial stations could be here.
Not a second thought until… I saw it in the car of our teenage neighbour. He has been hanging around at the house a lot recently, and we even gave him the job of cutting the grass because he seemed lonely… living with his grandmother in a tiny hamlet with not a single sign of friends or a girlfriend. He'd sat on the porch and watched old Czech films with us, and we'd played football together a few times.
When we asked him what the stereo was doing there, he said that he'd bought it in a nearby town. We could have been prepared to believe him about this, well at least there was a type of explanation which wasn't completely implausible… until he returned the stereo with the radio frequency dial smashed off – it had been there (nail varnished proof and all) half an hour before, when the stereo was sitting in the back of his new car.
If he'd asked if we had an old stereo he could have I would have been happy to give it to him, but instead he took it, which makes him the prime suspect for the break in we had in the winter and the dissapearance of lots of tools from the house. It's such a pity. What a stupid, stupid boy.

Cities and their policymakers face enormous pressures as they seek to meet today's mobility challenges. As rapid urbanization, aging infrastructure, population growth and climate change continue to challenge our world's cities, those that choose to make bold moves in advancing and diversifying their urban transport systems will gain a competitive advantage
The Index explores mobility through the three pillars of sustainability—social (People), environmental (Planet) and economic (Profit) to develop an indicative ranking of 100 of the world's leading cities.
Measures social and human implications of mobility systems including quality of life.
Captures environmental impacts; "green" factors like energy, pollution and emissions.
Assesses the efficiency and reliability of a mobility system to facilitate economic growth.
Brazil's most populous city, São Paulo, is the only Latin American city in the index to feature in the overall top 50. Yet, the capital cities of Lima and Mexico City are two of the highest performing globally when it comes to the share of trips taken by public transport.
|1. São Paulo
|4. Mexico City
|2. Rio de Janeiro
|5. Buenos Aires
|3. Santiago
|6. Lima
Download the report
The data highlights that the wealth, size or age of a city does not necessarily equal sustainable urban mobility. This is clearly demonstrated as we compare wealthy cities like Hong Kong (1st) with Los Angeles (72nd); massive urban centers like London (7th) with Jakarta (89th); and some of the earliest developed cities like Paris (3rd) with Cairo (94th).
Those cities that have pursued bold moves of innovation and planned for future growth see the greatest sustainability and quality of life benefits. Sustainable systems depend on the decisions of leaders in the public and private spheres, and emerging transport technologies mean there are more opportunities than ever to create cities that are built to move us into the future. With all the pressures that come from rapid urbanization, policymakers must take note and become well informed of their options in order to be able to offer residents real social and economic benefits.

I had been coming across this question from a lot of people. I never thought I'd have to write on this but an incident made me think on it. A fellow author friend contacted a xyz blogger for a review for which she was charged a good amount over usually it is. So my author buddy asked that blogger about how she was going to promote her book. The answer was the thing that shocked me, she'd just post a nice review without even bothering to read just because she was getting paid for it. Now, that thinking is problematic for sure.
The reviewing world is having a huge question these days surrounding on the advent of paid reviews. The only answer to this question is neither black or white. It's totally gray. With the advent of PR and marketing, a new section of marketers often called reviewers popped up.
A reviewer being someone who'd actually try the product/service and share their opinions. If you look at it that way, it's not much different than your average consumer sharing views on something for which they had paid for. But in every society there existed a person who used to spend on a ton of stuff as well as talked about every single product or service that arrived in the market.
For Marketing agencies this was a good chance to influence the people by providing that one person with free services and let them speak about their business. Slowly and gradually this section of people started calling them as reviewers or nowadays in the world of social media they're called as influencers.
There's totally nothing wrong in being a reviewer or influencer. It's a simple barter trade where you enjoy something and just give your honest opinion about it. Slowly, some started making this, i.e. talking about the products their way to earn bread. Now issue doesn't arise here. It started become issue when some sneaky ones decided to be lazy and started talking about things without even testing anything themselves, taking money in return. The issue arose with fake review and marketing.
Now, coming back to our topic. Should paid reviews exist? For that my answer is yes, because many influencers work day in and out to produce good quality marketing content and generate traffic for businesses whereas there are some who just join the bandwagon to get free goodies and have zero knowledge about what they are doing.
So what should we do about it? I know this question would be bugging the most of you. Influencing runs on attention. We should know who is really doing something and who is just talking after getting some money. It's really evident as someone who talks openly about anything which it isn't in real, can be easily identified. As businesses, you should be aware if that person/entity is able to generate good reputation as well as sales for your business. There might be some random person, with a million of followers charging you heavily for just a product placement but ask how they're going to work out.
Support and look ahead to those influencers who actually show the genuine content instead of just targeted marketing via any means possible. This will be going on until people actually start posting reviews and talking about what they really feel about anything. Also, it is not totally wrong to talk about a new product or something which might have been approached to you as in influencer but ethics are the primary thing which should be considered before doing anything. if its not ethical then its of no use.
Do comment and share your thoughts about it! I'd love to know what do you think. Also, I'd keep updating it quite often so do follow the blog to get all the updates by clicking here.
Also, a minor headsup.... Obsessed is free to read on Kindle Unlimited! Do check it out. I'd be glad to read your reviews!

From the Courier Mail:
WOMEN of child-bearing age are in the firing line as struggling small businesses baulk at the cost of implementing the Gillard Government's paid parental leave scheme.Dozens of cases of pregnant women being bullied and unfairly sacked have already been lodged with authorities, fuelling fears of widespread discrimination once paid parental leave starts on January 1.
Business groups warn that the onerous cost of administering payments will force some employers to think again about hiring women.
Queensland's Chamber of Commerce and Industry boss David Goodwin said small businesses - already hurting from the financial downturn - could not absorb the costs of filling out ''welfare papers'' and changing payroll systems. Some small businesses ''probably'' won't hire women of child-bearing age.
Side Note: Whilst paid parental leave is a bonus to all women who plan on starting a family from 1st January 2011, there are many women out there who have done it hard. Older women - who have had their families - should take advantage of the situation. Where once age may have been a barrier to employment, for some women it may now be a blessing in disguise.

Christmas Eve Holy Communion
Well Merry Christmas everybody. Christmas Day is only a matter of minutes away! Can I commend you on your choice to come here tonight? This is a brilliant opportunity to take some time out of the busyness of the season and reflect on God's Word, to pray and to remember Jesus' sacrifice for us. Let's pray to begin.
God speak to us today from your word. Change our hearts. Help us to rely on you and trust in you! Amen
Now to start with I have a question for you. Can you remember a time when there was news, which was unanimously appreciated by the entire population? So many news stories are either tragic or polarising. Someone's happiness is terrible news for someone else. And I think it's fair to say we have had some very polarising news stories over the past year. However, there was a news story early in 2010 that made the whole country happy. No one was upset with this news! Can you think what it might be? Well on Wednesday January 6th 2010 at exactly 12 minutes past 8 the BBC announced that everyone would get an extra bank holiday for the queen's jubilee! For an insignificantly small and potentially forgettable moment there was a great joy for all the people, in England at least. The passage that we had read earlier tells of an eternally significant and unforgettable moment, when it was announced that there is a great joy that is genuinely for all the people. Not just for people then, but for all time!
Have a look at that reading we had from Luke 2. You know the story. In a field around the city of Bethlehem a group of shepherds were out looking after their sheep, when all of a sudden the glory of the Lord shone around them. Now lets hold it right there.
That is probably not the first time you have heard the start to that story and for most of us that has gone straight over our heads. We've heard this before… So let's start again. In an ordinary field beside Bethlehem, a town in first century Palestine, some men doing the very ordinary job of looking after some sheep during the night were going about their business as you would expect. Then something incredible happens. An angel appears to them. Not a cute chubby infant like in the statues but one of God's spiritual servants and around them shines the glory of the Lord. This is an extraordinary situation. And the shepherds - how do they react? They were terrified! And no wonder, you might think. They have just seen an angel!
But if we read this passage in the context of the whole of the Bible we know that the angel is not what terrifies them the most. All the way through the Bible, God is presented as pure and holy and awesome and these attributes means that he looks glorious. His glory is one of his most important attributes. His glory can be described as the weight of his goodness. And he is so good and so glorious that if you look at him, and you aren't perfect, if you aren't without sin, you will die instantly. God is so pure, so good that his glory is dangerous. If you are a sinner, you can't stand being in the presence of God. He is too pure, too good. Moses a prophet of God in the Old Testament asks God if he can see his face. God replies:
"You cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live." (Exodus 33.20)
The whole Old Testament talks about the glory of the Lord and how dangerous it is. A man called Uzzah dies when he touches the ark of the covenant, the place where God's glory dwells. He dies because he is an imperfect sinner and God is a pure and holy and sinless God. The two cannot meet. Hopefully now you get the true shock of the scenario that is being played out in Luke 2. These were some ordinary shepherds on the hillside and all of a sudden the glory of the Lord is shining around them. No wonder they are terrified! Their fear puts us into their shoes. We, like the shepherds, are sinners. Just like every person who has ever lived, we are not pure, not good, not glorious. We should fear God. Any other reaction shows we haven't understood our predicament. As a human race we are in the same problem as the shepherds. We haven't seen the glory of the lord yet and we haven't seen angels yet, but we will. The Bible clearly explains that when we die we will meet God and just like the shepherds our initial reaction to that should be fear. In Romans 3.22-23 Paul writes:
"For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"
I don't know how you feel about that statement tonight. Maybe you were hoping for a jollier message. But let me tell you, the good news of Christmas, what the angel will go on to explain, is only good news if the bad news is clearly understood. We are sinners. Beside a perfect God we are failures. In our hearts we all know that we are not what we want to be. We cannot satisfy our own moral standards, never mind God's. The shepherd's reaction is appropriate as they see God's glory and understand their own sin.
But here is the second twist, instead of a message of condemnation on the shepherds that you might expect, the angel delivers an incredible message. The angels tells them the best news anyone has ever heard. Better than any sporting triumph, better than any political change, even better than an extra bank holiday. The angel says (Luke 2.10-13):
"Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger."
Seeing God and his glory causes us to fear, but God's message is 'fear not'! Why? Because God has some great news for all the people and that includes us!
Joy is a word we hear a lot around this time of the year, isn't it? It's tempting to think of joy in a similar way to the way we think of the word happy. That it is a cheerful emotion that is shallow and fleeting. The Bible uses the word joy in a different way. Joy is a steady confident satisfaction. It is, in reality, what all humans are longing to feel. If we are consumerists, and Christmas tends to show that lots of us are, then we look for joy in having stuff. If we are a romantic we look for joy in relationships. If we are career-driven we look for joy in our job. The problem with all these examples is that none of them ever end up giving us that long lasting satisfaction, that joy we are so desperate to enjoy. Our Christmas lists each year show how dissatisfying having stuff can be. We always want more. Our relationships too cannot be all satisfying. There are glimmers of joy on wedding days and then for many people marriage can be a struggle, not a fairy-tale. And that comes from someone getting married in July! We need to look elsewhere for joy and that is why the angel's message is so important. John Piper, a Christian writer says,
"The first Christmas was the dawning of an indestructible joy!"
I think that's a beautiful way of putting it.
"The first Christmas was the dawning of an indestructible joy!"
The angel announces there is "good news of great joy that is for all the people"! There is all-satisfying joy available! And it's for all people! But what is it found in? And how can we get it if the glory of God is so terrifying? Let's look back at what the angels says, because they answer both those questions. They say (v11):
"For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord."
How is this indestructible joy available? It is available because a saviour was born. What did those terrified shepherds need most, what do we who will meet God and see his glory need most? We need a saviour. Someone who will save us from the consequences we deserve. It can't just be anybody. It must be the person who we need saving from. I'll say again what the angels said in case you missed it. They say:
"For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord."
Who is born? It is Christ the Lord! The one whose glory terrifies the shepherds and should cause us to fear has been born. On that first Christmas a baby is born who is God himself.
I help run 'Kids Zone' the after school club we put on for Primary Aged children here at St Joseph's. A couple of weeks ago we were teaching the story of the wise men. I was saying that they gave Jesus gold as a gift because Jesus was King. One of the kids shouted out, "But I thought God is king!" And when I replied that Jesus was God, the kids' mouths dropped. We have become too used to the fact that Jesus was God on earth. It is normal for us to say it. But there is nothing normal about it. It is offensive to Muslims and Jews and inexplicable to the atheist, but it is true. Jesus was God. God in the flesh. Fully God and fully man. It is incredible to think that the creator and powerful God who made everything became a man. Sent by God the Father, God the Son was born to be our saviour. Shai Linne who is a Christian rapper in the states puts it like this:
"...This amazing Jesus
Who made Uranus and Venus became a foetus...
The subject of the gospels, praise of Apostles
Armed with eye sockets, arm pits and nostrils?...
See the One who never tires knocked out sleeping
See the Source of eternal joy weeping
Which one can explain how the Son abundant with fame
Who made thunder and rain now has hunger pains?"
The Hypostatic Union, Shai Linne
It is impossible to fully comprehend this beautiful reality. So what are we going to do about it this Christmas? What action should we take? We need to follow the lead of the multitude of the heavenly host and the shepherds. Luke 2.13-14:
"And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!""
And the shepherds when they have seen Jesus, Luke writes in verse 20 they "returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them." We need to follow this lead and praise God for this incredible news of a great joy that is for all the people. We should take some time out of the busyness, ponder and pray over these things. Tonight will hopefully be a good opportunity for that. But this news doesn't just affect us at Christmas. We all need to contemplate how this will affect the way we live our whole lives. If it is true it will affect everything!
If you aren't totally sure about it all yet, maybe you are here for the first time or you thought you were a Christian and have done for some time but you are unsure about some of the things that I have been saying, please keep coming back here to St Joseph's and maybe come along to one of our Life Explored groups we will be running in the new year and work out if Jesus really is the Saviour and Christ the Lord.
Tonight we will be partaking in the Lord's Supper together. This is a celebration of what Jesus, who was Christ the Lord did for us to save us. Use this opportunity to remember that Christmas Day is a day to celebrate because God, the one who we should fear because of our sin, came to deal with our sin so that we can have an indestructible joy. Let me pray:
Father, thank you for sending Jesus. We acknowledge that we are sinful and your glory caused us to fear. But we thank you that you have saved us from the consequences of our sin. Help us to enjoy and wonder at the fact that God became man. We praise you and love you.

BBC One announce special documentary on EastEnders' June Brown to celebrate her 90th birthday
BBC One will broadcast a special 30-minute documentary next month, June Brown At 90 - A Walford Legend, to coincide with the star's 90th birthday.
"Give us a tea, Lofty. And a glass of water so I can take a Paracetamol." Those were the first words June Brown ever uttered as Dot Cotton, and they would prove to be a turning point in EastEnders' history.
Celebrating a milestone birthday, June Brown At 90 - A Walford Legend, spends half an hour in the company of one of Albert Square's most beloved actors, as she talks about her life and career. From her early days in theatre, to the reason she believes she was cast in the role of Dot, June Brown's views on almost everything are both surprising and entertaining.
Executive Producer Caroline Wright says: "June Brown is a one-off, a genuine national treasure. It's been a privilege to be given the chance to capture her magic."
June talks of how, in the early days, she was seen as a rival by a fellow cast member, and how she coaxed more out of her character than just being a hypochondriac ("I loved it when Dot went hysterical"). She also reveals the effect Dorothy Branning has had on her life and the opportunities it has given her, from Bafta nominations to revealing all in Calendar Girls.
But who is June Brown? And how similar is she to her EastEnders' character? Funny, eccentric and straight talking, while Dot might be often impersonated, June Brown is unique.
Featuring contributions from many Walford regulars (Danny Dyer, Adam Woodyatt, Gillian Taylforth, Rudolph Walker, Lacey Turner and Natalie Cassidy) all of whom pay tribute to their unique colleague.
Commissioned by Charlotte Moore and Pinki Chambers for BBC One, and made by BBC Studios, the Executive Producer is Caroline Wright and the Producer, Matt Taylor.

Ye gads. I read about this story. I kept thinking: Dude, she is 10 years old!
That's really what a police officer, trained (I assume) at a Police Academy and being an adult, and kind of a guardian of the peace needs to do to encourage a 10 year old to take a bath?
What kind of crazy world are we?

Are you kidding? That was one tough little girl! Can't you see the bandages? (Look at the bones!)
I feel confused and offended at the same time.
And if it's any consolation, I believe the creator of "Mallard Fillmore" is a local of where I grew up.

When I first saw the story it occurred to me the policeman's first duty would be to remove that child from the home, it being occupied by a woman who could think tasing a child would ever be appropriate. Remove the child to Child Protective Services (assuming Arkansas has such a 'service') and file a report recommending conflict resolution and family therapy for the mother. Instead what do we get? Or more accurately what does the child get? A peaceofficer with a similarly truncated horizon to the mother and five thousand volts in the neck! Jesus.

Ooops, that thing about the unfunny conservative cartoon duck appears to be completely untrue. How embarrassing.

I can't imagine that any thinking human being would think tasering a 10-year-old is a good idea. That's why the newspaper cartoon is so shocking.
But, Arkansas is one of the few states left where it's okay for teachers and school adminstrators to beat children. So, maybe it's just a logical extension.

i recall the outrage when a DC metro cop handcuffed a little girl for eating a french fry. yet, tasering a 10 yr old for not taking a bath does not seem to have generated similar outrage. is it out there and i just missed it?
- December 1, 2009 at 10:22 AM
- Archaeopteryx said...
It's Arkansas, Twif. Here, you're allowed--no, encouraged--to beat your children to make them do what you want. Schools are still allowed to beat kids. So tasering them is just the next step.
By the way, the cop involved was fired yesterday--not for the tasering, but for not following proper procedure in having done so: here's the story.
- December 1, 2009 at 1:39 PM
- Robert Scheidler said...
On the other hand, I would have thought that, in Arkansas, refusing to take a bath would be considered a right, if not an obligation......

David Bloom, the ebullient and energetic executive who scripted the rise of Shoppers Drug Mart into a dominant role as Canada's only national drug store chain, retired from the company in 2001 after 18 years as its chairman and chief executive.
That Shoppers Drug can dub itself a "world-class retailer" is due in no small part to Bloom's leadership. Beginning as a Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacist in Toronto's Yorkdale community in 1967, he moved on a fast management trajectory that culminated with his appointment as president and chief executive in 1983, at the age of 39. Bloom succeeded Shoppers Drug Mart founder Murray Koffler as chairman three years later upon Koffler's retirement.
As the company's top officer, Bloom led a doubling of store count, a fourfold increase in sales and a tenfold jump in earnings. In fiscal 1999, the last year for which figures are available, Shoppers reached C$4.3 billion in sales ($2.8 billion at current exchange), with sales per square foot reaching (U.S.) $558. Net earnings that year rose 30 percent to (U.S.) $157 million.
Since becoming a private company Shoppers Drug no longer reports financial results.
More significant to Shoppers' future, Bloom also pushed a culture of restless innovation and self-renewal. That drive led to Project Eagle, a re-engineering of all aspects of Shoppers' supply chain and distribution management, purchasing, store merchandising and operations, which began in 1995.
The result, noted Shoppers, is "state-of-the-art distribution, purchasing and merchandising systems." Bloom is also credited for his role in the launch of such private label brands as Life, Quo and Rialto, as well as the creation and branding of marketing and service programs like Health-Watch, PharmExpert and the extremely successful Shoppers Optimum loyalty card.

text: I am in Norway this week, not far from the city of Tromso to enjoy some ski touring with friends Bryn and Dave. I visited the area last year whilst making a ski film in the area and this year have come back purely to enjoy the skiing! Its a truly beautiful area with summits of a similar scale to those that we have at home in North Wales and Scotland but with the advantage of great snow from summit to sea. The accessibility makes the area brilliant for day tours and we have been able to pick of some amazing summits, choosing aspect and angle each day to suit the conditions. They have had a slightly weird winter with a persistent weak layer in the snow pack causing lots of instability so that has meant playing the angles game all week and keeping things mellow. We have enjoyed some amazing weather, seen some beautiful wildlife, had some great skiing and are already planning next years trip!

Down.Tierney made it two in a row in the Super Series with a convincing victory in the men's race while GB athlete Byram was the surprise package, winning in her first appearance in the series. A total of 16 men and 13 women lined out amid the perfect setting of Castlewellan Forest Park for the sprint distance race.What would normally be a draft legal event had to be amended to incorporate regular drafting rules however after race organisers were informed by the PSNI that the roads had not been closed at 8am as planned.The Men's RaceBut after just 750m of the men's race it became clear that drafting or non drafting, there would be only one winner to the event, as Cillian Tierney began to increase a 12sec swim advantage in to a lead of many minutes by the time he completed the 20km bike and arrived in to T2.His 33min 15sec bike split was the quickest of the day and gave him a commanding lead out on the 5km run, which he covered in 17mins 12secs to arrive at the finish line in 1hr 2mins 30secs having never relinquished his lead in the race.Behind him however places were being traded constantly, with second out of the swim James Walton arriving in to T2 with company on his shoulder in the form of GB athlete Jonathan Oakley.Patrick Barry, Niall Cornyn and Ben Vahy followed soon after with Cornyn's presence notable since he had surrendered more than 2mins to his rivals during the swim. He powered his way back towards the front during the bike and continued this approach through T2, moving in to 4th place heading out on the run which he completed in 16mins 26secs - the quickest time of the day. In the process he passed Oakley and Walton and claimed second place in 1hr 5mins 26secs.Walton meanwhile held off a fast finishing Barry to claim third with a margin of just 5secs.Results from the Men's Super Series race (scroll across for full splits)PosFirstnameLastnameClubSwimT1BikeT2RunFinish1CillianTierneyTralee TC0:09:540:01:210:33:150:00:490:17:121:02:302NiallCornyn0:12:130:01:280:34:370:00:440:16:261:05:263JamesWalton0:10:080:01:090:36:180:00:460:18:411:07:024PatrickBarryBelpark TC0:10:300:01:090:36:390:00:490:18:011:07:075LochlainnConnollyInvictus TC0:10:430:01:200:36:440:00:560:17:381:07:196JonathanMartin247 Triathlon Club0:10:300:01:190:36:370:00:440:18:301:07:387JonathanOakey0:10:100:01:100:36:300:00:490:19:161:07:538CiaranMaddenLongford TC0:10:440:01:170:36:500:00:460:18:471:08:219OdhranMc KaneNorthwest TC0:10:420:01:220:36:180:00:490:20:041:09:1410BenVaheyGalway TC0:11:470:01:150:35:150:00:470:21:391:10:4111MichaelMcDonaldHi-Elbow TC0:11:560:01:180:36:000:00:540:21:071:11:1412CliffordRodgersOlympian Triathlon Club0:11:420:01:100:38:320:00:560:19:551:12:1313DesCrinionQUB TC0:14:500:01:230:38:260:00:500:18:591:14:2514KianDivin0:13:180:01:320:39:380:01:000:21:221:16:4815JakeRushbyPeninsula TC0:13:300:01:280:39:130:01:120:22:281:17:4816PhilipBailliePeninsula TC0:14:470:01:480:40:310:01:040:19:531:18:01The Women's RaceTen minutes after the men started, it was the turn of the women tackle a blustery swim course in Castlewellan Lake. Early leader Erin McConnell was one of a number of women who overhauled the male back markers before making it to the shore in a display of impressive swimming.McConnell led by more than 30secs out of the water followed by a closely bunch including Emma Porter, Orla Walsh, Ella Doherty and twin sisters Erica and Lucy Byram. Like Tierney in the men's race, McConnell completed the full 20km bike in the lead and came in to T2 alone but once on the run found herself unable to stay clear of the pack which was led by the Byram twins who were making their debut appearance in the Super Series.Erica Byram made it across the line first to win the race in 1hr 9mins 14secs with sister Lucy coming home just 14secs later.

THE HAWK hero, the enterprising Energiser, days of Decadence, and off to the dogs. SCOT PALMER's premier PUNCHLINES provides plenty of premium provisions for patrons:
WHEN Hawthorn's fate hung in the balance in 1996 Don Scott became its wartime commander and Ian Dicker the peacemaker. The teaming of these two helped lead the Hawks from the doorstep of a merger to becoming the powerhouse club that Hawthorn is today.
While former captain Scott has stepped away, Dicker remains an active Hawk. He is a key member of the club's Foundation which is responsible for support and fund-raising, and cherishes the position. But as his days of the presidency (1997-05) are behind him, the passionate business leader has picked out another club that needs his help.
His nearby VFL club Frankston, which lost its licence through lack of funds, has now attracted his attention. "I heard that they were holding a meeting and turned up on the way home," he told me. "It was the sort of thing that Hawthorn had faced and I thought I could help."
Dicker had a good set of figures to relate: in their darkest hour the Hawks had 11,000 members, now they have 74,000. Dicker is one of the most generous and agreeable men I have met all my years in the game. No request seems to faze him. He has dealt with so much family illness in recent years, handling it privately and with courage. Now that he has thrown his weight behind Frankston I'm told the club has retrieved its licence and the membership has increased to 2,000 or more.
Frankston has a proud history of producing players for the AFL with notable recent examples being Western Bulldogs champion and All-Australian Matthew Boyd, Bomber Mark Baguley, former Bomber and now Demon Michael Hibberd and Tiger Sam Lloyd.
Dicker is owner and managing director of a medical company in Australia and Asia and with his daughter now taking a more prominent role in the business he might just be able to find more time for reviving the Dolphins.
MARK "Jacko" Jackson is no longer the household footy name he was in the 80s when his handstands in the goal square and other antics had fans wondering if they had blundered into a circus. But even these days trying to keep tabs on him would still create a headache for any modern day full-back. Jacko celebrated his 58th birthday this week but already this year the zany, unpredictable has covered over 80,000 km doing what he does well, talking to shock. He has perfected it into an artform as was the case when he lined up on July 26 last year for an interview with commentator Mike Sheahan on Fox. Jackson made no attempt disguise his long-held dislike for Sheahan. "Did you think I went too hard?" he asked me: "It was the talk the country wherever I went."
The former Melbourne, St Kilda and Geelong spearhead who led the goalkicking at all three clubs, is always on the move doing charity engagements, corporate functions and a never-ending succession of sportsmen's nights. "I've being doing them since 1981 so you could say it's what I do."
Jacko had just flown back from the Gold Coast to Sydney when we caught up with him, heading home to his second wife who comes from Latvia and is studying a form of medicine. Warwick Capper of tight shorts fame used to be Jacko's partner on the speaking circuit but the team has broken up and Jacko continues to go it alone. It seems that audiences can't get enough of the former full-forward, actor, singer and author, who also managed to enjoy a good little earner from his high-energy commercials for Energizer batteries.
LOCAL folk have a deep love for the River Murray that flows 2,500 km through seven major towns, including Echuca where one former VFL player travels along its waters as our pioneers once did in paddle steamers. Kangaroo champ Ken Montgomery takes in the views of the mighty river from the comfort of "Indulgence" and "Decadence". These are the two sumptuous five-star boats in his Murray cruising fleet. Monty, 66, a premiership player in 1977, Syd Barker Medallist and Victoria State player, owns six boats that ply their trade from Echuca. Even his two-star craft are something to behold. They have four bedrooms, en suites, jacussis, six or seven TVs, Foxtel and BBQs. They are rated among the finest afloat. Ken has always been into boats but began this business with wife Julie seven years ago. "She is the skipper and I am the vice-captain," he smiled as Julie was putting preparation together for a ladies' luncheon cruise. Ken still keeps a close eye on North Melbourne's fortunes where he was one of the youngest to play at 16. He later became chief executive of the club before the call of the Murray took hold.
DOG racing has emerged from a tough period of both public and self-examination and is now racing forward, relying heavily upon two clubmates from North Melbourne. Chief executive Greg Miller and his close friend Francis Trainor are planning events for Sandown that hopefully will bring crowds back to the iconic track. Trainor is something of a marketing guru who for many years was responsible for the organisation of the Kangaroos Grand Final Breakfast. Most of Australia's leading politicians and sportsmen attended as VIPs on the morning of the big match. Miller has been in charge of the greyhounds for seven years and feels that the sports is flourishing again now that many of the old practices have been done away. He feels that feature events where a build-up of interest takes place is a key to success and this where Trainor's expertise will help. Both the blokes remain committed Kangaroo supporters and attend as many games as they can.

2014: A Year of Temperature Records and Landmark Climate Findingsby and -
This fact sheet offers an overview of key scientific takeaways from 2014, ranging from record-high temperatures to landmark findings related to climate change.
Key Findings
Executive Summary
Not only was the average annual temperature in 2014 the warmest on record globally, but the year also witnessed record-high seasonal temperatures in the summer and fall, and the second-warmest spring. Monthly global temperatures have been above average since December 1984, meaning no one younger than 30 years old has been alive during a month when global temperatures were below average. This long-running warming trend comes at a time of increasing costly weather and climate events, with seven of the 10 costliest years of weather and climate disasters occurring since 2000.
The scientific consensus states that warming over the last half century is largely caused by manmade climate change. Additionally, scientists estimate that global temperatures will continue to rise throughout the remainder of the century as a result of continued greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions stemming from human activities. The longer we delay reducing GHG emissions, the greater the magnitude of warming will be that increases our risk to the most disastrous impacts of climate change.

At the oceans side I am but a heartbeat from you.
The ebbing tide whispers of my love in hushed
tones of an ancient lullaby and hope ignites within.
Gone are the miles that separate, now lays only
Poseidon's kingdom and I am a child of the sea.
He grants me passage to you in wild day dreams
adorned with Lucid's touch. The oceans breeze
carries your name to me, sea mist becomes the essence
that is you, as it swirls through my aura kissing
the flush of my cheek and I know in that moment
I have been kissed by love. No matter the grey
clouds for they will clear, the rain will purge old tears
collecting the grains of sand hurled through the
oceans storm,
until I am at your shore, stood at your feet
and sea mist shrouds us, as we are lost to
loves sweet embrace.

Hackers Obtain Mitt Romney's Tax Returns - Report -- Letters stated intention to publish Romney's tax returns on Sept. 28, unless $1 million is deposited in Bitcoin account 05 Sep 2012 Someone claims to have stolen years of Mitt Romney's tax returns from a Tennessee office of the financial firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, and the Secret Service is investigating what appears to be a ransom scheme. The local Democratic and Republican parties in Williamson County, Tenn., where the PricewaterhouseCoopers office is located, both received packages, each containing a thumb drive and a letter outlining a competitive-bidding ransom scheme that appears designed to pit Republicans and Democrats against each other over the release of Romney's taxes. [It's about time! What on earth were they *waiting for?* Post them NOW!]
(WASHINGTON) -- Someone claims to have stolen years of Mitt Romney's tax returns from a Tennessee office of the financial firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, and the Secret Service is investigating what appears to be a ransom scheme.The local Democratic and Republican parties in Williamson County, Tenn., where the PricewaterhouseCoopers office is located, both received packages, each containing a thumb drive and a letter outlining a competitive-bidding ransom scheme that appears designed to pit Republicans and Democrats against each other over the release of Romney's taxes.The letters stated an intention to publish Romney's tax returns on Sept. 28, unless $1 million is deposited in a Bitcoin (Internet currency) account, according to Williamson County Democratic Party Chairman Peter Burr, who said both he and his Williamson County GOP counterpart received similar packages.The Secret Service took the package from him after the local GOP contacted authorities, Burr said. The Secret Service confirmed to ABC News that it is investigating the ransom scheme.The apparent hackers presented "two options," Burr said. "If somebody wanted to prevent the publication of these tax records, they needed to put a million dollars into this Bitcoin account…that was to prevent them from going ahead and publishing it on September 28th. Then they went on to say that if you want to ensure that this is published before September 28th, you have the option of contributing a million dollars to this other Bitcoin account … and if you win the race … the other side will not be able to prevent the publication."PricewaterhouseCoopers acknowledged the scheme, first reported by the tech website Mashable, in a statement to ABC News."We are aware of the allegations that have been made regarding improper access to our systems. We are working closely with the United States Secret Service, and at this time there is no evidence that our systems have been compromised or that there was any unauthorized access to the data in question," the firm said.
Breaking: Nuclear accident burns two people --Official: About 50 firefighters have been deployed 06 Sep 2012 A steam leak brought on by an involuntary chemical reaction at France's oldest nuclear plant has led to two people being slightly burnt, officials say. The accident occurred at the Fessenheim nuclear power plant in northeastern France within 1.5 kilometres of the border with Germany and about 40 kilometres from Switzerland. French power supplier EDF said 'two people were slightly burnt through their gloves.'
Pentagon launches website to track radiation exposure after Japan quake 05 Sep 2012 The Pentagon launched a website Wednesday for American troops and family members who were near the Japanese nuclear reactors that were damaged by the earthquake and tsunami in March of 2011. The website will allow Americans to enter a location where they were in Japan and get an estimation of how much radiation they were exposed to while there. The Defense Department says about 70,000 American troops, family members and civilian employees were on or near the Japanese mainland from March 12 to May 11 of 2011 after the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, as the disaster is called [instead of the Great HAARP Fukushima Nuclear Meltdowns, as the disaster *should* be called].
Democrats reinstate Jerusalem language in party platform --Democratic official: Language reinstated to reflect personal view of President Obama 06 Sep 2012 Democrats amended the party platform Wednesday afternoon to include language supporting Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The quickly approved changed came in the wake of mounting criticism from Democratic members of Congress incensed that the 2008 platform's declaration backing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel had been removed from the 2012 text. Republicans were quick to jump on the original omission, blasting the Democrats for not supporting Israel and its capital strongly enough. [And, Obusha couldn't surrender to his GOP overlords quick enough!]
Phony populism from a party of corporate America 05 Sep 2012 The opening night of the Democratic National Convention provided a grossly distorted picture of the Obama administration, presenting a right-wing, pro-corporate, anti-working-class government as though it was the second coming of the New Deal...Speaker after speaker bashed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney as the candidate of wealth and privilege and portrayed Obama as the advocate of working people and his reelection as the key to social and economic progress...In the assault on public workers, Democratic office-holders at the state and local level have taken just as hard a line as their Republican counterparts on cutting jobs, wages and benefits...Deval Patrick, the Democrat who followed Romney as governor of Massachusetts, boasted that he had succeeded in cutting pensions and benefits for state employees where Romney had "only talked" about it. The difference, he pointed out, was that he imposed the cuts "with labor at the table."...In other words, the Democrats prefer to enlist the unions to help them cut the living standards of the working class, while the Republicans seek to dispense with the union officials and do the job themselves. The end result for the workers is the same.
Bill Clinton officially nominates Obama at Democratic National Convention 05 Sep 2012 Former President Bill Clinton formally nominated President Obama for a second term on Wednesday night, defending his Democratic successor's stewardship of the nation's beleaguered economy. Hours after Obama touched down in Charlotte, Democrats opened the second night of their convention with a rousing set of speeches to culminate with Clinton's hotly-anticipated speech. The former president was preceded on stage by some of the party's best-known liberal leaders and activists, including Elizabeth Warren, whose Senate campaign in Massachusetts has captivated the party's liberal grassroots.
Transcript: Bill Clinton's Democratic Convention Speech 05 Sep 2012 Former President Bill Clinton's remarks to the Democratic National Convention, as prepared for delivery. Clinton veered from these prepared remarks multiple times throughout his speech. ...We Democrats think the country works better with a strong middle class, real opportunities for poor people to work their way into it and a relentless focus on the future, with business and government working together to promote growth and broadly shared prosperity. We think "we're all in this together" is a better philosophy than "you're on your own." Who's right? Well since 1961, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats 24. In those 52 years, our economy produced 66 million private sector jobs. What's the jobs score? Republicans 24 million, Democrats 42 million!
Transcript: Elizabeth Warren's Democratic Convention Speech 05 Sep 2012 Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren's speech at the Democratic National Convention, as prepared for delivery. ...People feel like the system is rigged against them. And here's the painful part: they're right. The system is rigged. Look around. Oil companies guzzle down billions in subsidies. Billionaires pay lower tax rates than their secretaries. Wall Street CEOs—the same ones who wrecked our economy and destroyed millions of jobs—still strut around Congress, no shame, demanding favors, and acting like we should thank them. Anyone here have a problem with that? Well I do.
Poland provides answers for CIA prisons probe 05 Sep 2012 Poland has given information to European judges investigating allegations that the United States held 'al Qaeda' suspects in secret jails on Polish soil, the government said on Wednesday, potentially easing official secrecy surrounding the practice. Rights activists say that after the September 11, 2001 attacks on U.S. cities, the CIA used "black sites" in friendly countries including Poland to interrogate and sometimes torture suspected militants beyond the reach of normal legal protections. But the programme's existence has never been officially acknowledged.
Marines arrested in assault on Calif. gay man 05 Sep 2012 The beating of a gay man outside a bar resulted in the arrest of four Camp Pendleton Marines and was being investigated as a potential hate crime, Marine Corps and police officials said Wednesday. The Marines entered the Silver Fox just before closing time early Monday and seemed visibly uncomfortable, bar manager John Barnes told the Long Beach Press-Telegram. One of the Marines made a demeaning remark - calling the bartender "sweetheart" - before he and the other Marines jumped a young man, Barnes said.

Mosquitos aren't just a nuisance they can be carriers of some very serious diseases. In Idaho we have had several confirmed cases of people being infected with the West Nile Virus. West Nile can cause serious illness in people of any age but those over the age of 50 or who have underlying medical conditions are especially at risk. West Nile symptoms can be very serious and painful and last for days to months. West Nile can also be neuroinvasive and infect the brain causing seizures and paralysis and in rare cases even death. Because of the risks it important to limit exposure to mosquitos and do all that you can to keep your property from being a mosquito breeding ground.
If you are planning to be outside when and where mosquitos are active (generally they are most active between dusk and dawn) make sure to wear repellent containing DEET, Picaridin or Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus which are all EPA-approved repellents. It is also recommended that you wear clothing that covers up your skin and to cover baby strollers with mosquito netting.
To prevent mosquitoes from ruining an evening get together on the patio, you can place a simple box fan nearby to blow mosquitoes away from you and your guests. They are unable to fly against strong wind currents. To prevent mosquitoes from coming inside, make sure that you have screens on your windows and doors and repair when torn.
The best thing that you can do to prevent mosquito bites is to do all that you can to prevent mosquitoes from hatching on your property. Mosquitoes like to lay their eggs in standing water, especially water that has collected dead leaves, grass clippings, or any organic material. They will not lay eggs in water if it is too clean. The amount of water that they will lay their eggs in can be as small as a bottle cap. With this in mind here are some common objects and places that produce mosquitoes:
Rain Gutters – when rain gutters are clogged with leaves they can hold standing water as well.
Swimming pools – swimming pools of all sizes need to be kept clean and covered when not in use. Pool covers can also be breeding sites for mosquitoes, so make sure they are fastened tight.
Tires – if you are storing tires, put them in the shed or garage so that they don't fill with water. Any tire swings should have a hold drilled in the bottom to allow water to escape.
Garbage Cans – like tires, keep them inside or drill a hole in the bottom.
Flower Pots – Even small drain dishes on a flower pot can hold enough water to produce hundreds of mosquitoes
Tarps – Always keep tarps tight on boats, RV's, or other items so that they don't have depressions that can fill with water.
Boats – If you boat isn't covered, turn it upside down so that it won't collect water or remove the plug in the bottom of the boat so that it can drain.
Vegetation – Overgrown vegetation can also contribute to mosquito breeding. Yards with well-trimmed lawns and vegetation have fewer places for mosquitoes to hide and breed.
Bird Baths/Dog Bowls/Troughs – any outside water containers should be emptied frequently and filled with fresh clean water.
Irrigation – Do not over-irrigate your lawn and landscape not only can it lead to tremendous hatch offs of mosquitoes it can also contribute to other fungal and plant diseases.
As the weather warms up the mosquitoes will reproduce more rapidly. If you suspect that there are potential mosquito production areas on or near your property call your local mosquito abatement district for recommendations.
At Organic Solutions! Inc., we want you and your family to have a safe and happy summer. We can help you have a well-manicured and healthy landscape. If you need help with lawn mowing, trimming, pruning, or weeding, give us a call for a free estimate, 208-884-8986.

Harley Davidson is a public company which was founded in 1903 by William Harley, Arthur Davidson, Walter Davidson and William Davidson. The company headquarters are located in Milwaukee. Harley-Davidson's popularity is perpetuated by its strong international brand presence which is supported by advertisements, membership clubs and events. Buyers looking for a Harley Davidson for sale will find a range of models on the market.
Harley Davidson became associated with gangs such as the Hells Angels and the tough image of bikers was enhanced by Steve McQueen who was the epitome of Hollywood's motorcycle outlaw. Movies such as Easy Rider added to the bike's image by showing movie stars riding Harley Davidsons. Since its inception the motorbike has grown in popularity due to its reputation for reliability and strength. The bike's style, heavy designs and unique sound have made it one of the sought after bikes for sale.
William Harley designed the first engine for a pedal bike frame in 1901 and, after learning from this initiative, he designed a bigger engine in 1903 with the help of the Davidsons. The engine was fitted to a loop frame which set a precedent for future motorbike designs. Input was also given by Ole Evinrude and the first machine was assembled in 1904 in the Davidson's back garden. The first factory was set up in 1906 and fifty Harley Davidsons were manufactured. In 1907 the company was incorporated and the factory was expanded to increase production.
The original Harley Davidsons were single-cylinder with 440cc engines. Harley Davidson supplied the police force with motorcycles and these machines were also used for combat in World War l. Upgrades were made to the motorbike to improve performance and by 1920 Harley Davidson was the leading motorbike manufacturer on the international market with outlets in 67 countries. During the Great Depression, the factories manufactured industrial power plants and delivery vehicles which helped the company to survive the economic hardships of this period.
Harley Davidson was sold to the American Machine and Foundry in 1969 which was followed by a decline in the quality of the motorbikes. In 1981 Vaughn Beals and Willie Davidson bought the company and the bikes were modelled on the original Harley Davidson style. Quality was resumed and Harley Davidson regained popularity.

What kind of "prisons" tend to bring out doubts for you regarding Jesus?
The moving words of Ruth to Naomi as she pledged her commitment, are reflective of the commitment we must make "Whither thou goest I will go; and where thou lodgest I will lodge; thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God."
When you doubt, don't turn away from him, turn to him.
(Matthew 5:29-30)"So if your right eye causes you to sin, take it out and throw it away! It is much better for you to lose a part of your body than to have your whole body thrown into hell. If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away! It is much better for you to lose one of your limbs than to have your whole body go off to hell."
What is Jesus' point in using such exaggerated language?
I believe we have here a fairly strong statement of how important it is to obey God. Obedience is worth more than readiness to perform the outward obligations of religion as indicated in (1 Samuel 15:22-23). Examine your life for anything that causes you to sin, and take every necessary action to remove it.
(James 1:19-21)"Remember this, my dear brothers! Everyone must be quick to listen, but slow to speak and slow to become angry. Man's anger does not achieve God's righteous conduct. Submit to God and accept the word that he plants in your hearts, which is able to save you."
What from God's Word here will you put into action this week?
Control of our will is vital to our progress. Turning from evil and to God's control, is what is expected of us. If you truly wish to be obedient to God, it means turning your life totally over to God. Just as an athlete must turn control of his life to a coach, we must do the same, plus.

Cricket's saddest day ended with a numbing, ironic postscript - Phillip Hughes had won his fight.
Just hours after Hughes succumbed to the most freakish of sports injuries, it came to light the little battler from Macksville had done enough to earn himself his cherished Test recall.
If a 135km/h bouncer hadn't cannoned into the side of his neck at the SCG on Tuesday, he'd be preparing to don the baggy green cap for the 27th time, playing against India at the Gabba in a week's time.
In a bewildering mix of tragedy and bizarre timing, Test selector Mark Waugh - who watched Hughes make an untroubled 63 before he fatefully mistimed a pull shot two days ago - admitted the left-hander was poised to replace injured captain Michael Clarke in the first Test line-up.
"It makes it an even tougher pill to swallow," Waugh told Fox Sports.
Just 25, Hughes died yesterday afternoon in St Vincent's Hospital of vertebral artery dissection, an extremely rare medical problem in which the artery to the brain is torn.
It's only been reported 100 times, just once before in cricket and St Vincent's had never seen a case.
Hughes - Australia's 408th Test player - was one of the most likeable cricketers across the country.
Renowned as a fighter since marking his debut Test series with sensational success as a 20-year-old against South Africa in 2009, Hughes had been vying for a fourth recall to the Australian side.
Australian Cricketers Association chief executive Alistair Nicholson described the gritty batsman in a nutshell.
"Phillip Hughes died playing the sport that he loved amongst those who loved him," Nicholson said.
"His final shot typified his approach to the game - aggressive, positive and defiant."
Tears flowed as Test and interstate teammates, as well as former captain Ricky Ponting and Steve Waugh, gathered at St Vincent's throughout today to say their final farewell - ending a two-day bedside vigil after he was placed in an induced coma.
Great mate David Warner was inconsolable, while Clarke - described as a big brother to the batsman - was singled out for his great love and care for his friend, and support to his grief-stricken family.
"The family was obviously going through a difficult time but I'm not sure they would have coped without Michael's assistance," said Australian team doctor Peter Brukner.
Early Thursday evening, Hughes' parents and sister were joined by several players, including Warner, Ponting, Peter Siddle, James Pattinson and Aaron Finch, at the SCG.
His mother Virginia was inconsolable as she left.
Flowers, Australian and Barmy Army flags, as well as a cricket ball and bat have been laid outside the nearby Cricket NSW offices.
News of Hughes' death brought tributes from around the world with cricket luminaries like Ian Botham and Sachin Tendulkar joining Prime Minister Tony Abbott offering condolences.
Play in the Test match between New Zealand and Pakistan in Sharjah was called off for the day while the flags at Lord's - the home of cricket - flew at half-mast.
Cricket Australia chief James Sutherland said tragedy was a word uttered too often in sport, but this was real life tragedy.
"Phil has been taken away from us to soon," Sutherland said. "It's an understatement to say we're completely devastated.
"The impact of Phillip's loss is enormous."
With questions now hovering over staging the Gabba Test, Sutherland said it was too early to consider calling the game off.
Cricket Australia confirmed a Australia XI v India two-day tour match due to start on Friday at Adelaide Oval has been cancelled, as well as the entire round of Sheffield Shield matches.

Employers need to remember that if they pay staff a car allowance, they need to withhold tax on any amount they pay that is more than 66 cents per kilometre (from July 1, 2015). If they haven't been doing this, it may be an idea to start now to avoid their employees being saddled with a tax debt.
Even though the 66 cents amount was legislated in September 2015, the amount applies retrospectively from July 1, 2015.
Businesses should also be reminded that they may need to consider pre-existing car allowance arrangements that have remained unchanged for this financial year. Employers may be best advised to enquire with relevant employees whether they would prefer to increase the withholding amount for the remainder of the financial year to cover any possible shortfall. If your company car ever gets into an accident there is no need to worry because you will get help from Krasney Law. If not, you can always rely on any personal injury lawyer miami.
and also get financial help from this company that will buy junk cars.
Of course the government abolished quite a while ago the one-third of actual expenses method and 12% of original value method, leaving the cents per kilometre method (still with a 5,000km cap) and the logbook method (with unlimited kms).
There is no change to the principle that work related car expenses are deductible, and no impact on salary packaged cars. For more on withholding for employee payments, see this ATO web page. And for help and guidance on varying the amounts withheld, see here.

text: Django (aka Slider/Landslide Drive) was the gentlest, most sweet pup that stole our hearts when we adopted him 6 years ago. He loved snoozing on the couch with us and going for long walks at 1000 acres dog park near Portland where we lived. In 2016 he became an international traveller when we moved from Portland to The Netherlands. He continued to enjoy long walks by canals and windmills. He's given us such joy over the years he's been our companion. There's a Django shaped hole in our hearts. We will miss him so much.
