"We Are Coming..."
July 6th - 9PM
Reminded of this clip from Coach Carter
Thanks to: Emmsy
Used this QUOTE when I became a Soldier (Full Member) of The Salvation Army..
"Our deepest fear is not that we are in adequate.
It is that we are powerful beyond measure."
So having been reminded - thought I'd share it!
EDIT: I did blog on this quote before... Right Here!
ooh a twist on previous CofE Torchwood Trailers
(Pity this trailer, Australia only!)

it was good to eventually meet the 3D "analogue" versions rather than 2D "digital" versions!
(as a side note: could the fact the photo was taken with an iPhone be the reason I look exactly like my Apple-loving brother?)
"impromptu tweet-up" apparently... @ Starbucks in Borders, Glasgow
"The End of the Line" is not against fishing. It is not against eating fish. But it is for a responsible attitude towards the oceans.The film has three messages for consumers, citizens and companies:
Ask before you buy:
only eat sustainable seafood.
Tell politicians:
respect the science, cut the fishing fleet
Join the campaign:
for marine protected areas and responsible fishing
We hope that when people buy fish in a shop or in restaurant, they will ask where it comes from; whether it is from a sustainable source, whether it is an endangered or over-exploited species.

"Where has childhood gone?
Sexualizing of society in advertising & beyond; "hands-off parenting"? more like "hands-off" society - no-one wants to take responsibility - its always someone else's job to sort it.. the blame game is just going to lead to a downward spiral!
.. "it wasn't me! or who can I sue? or no-one stopped me!" or anything similar shouldn't stand up to scrutiny.
But who is watching out for others? Who is going to stand up & be, firstly an example of action, & secondly a positive voice? YOU? or what about.. YOU hiding behind 'trendy excuse of the day?'
In the end, if you don't stand up with positive action.. then just sit down & keep your words of condemnation to yourself!! {Actions or being an Example shouts so much louder than all the words in the world!}
- Just my opinion, but wrong as what the 13yr girl was doing is... where was the positive action that would have lead to a possibly different life experience? For her & thousands-upon-thousands like her?"
This is a trailer for (in case you hadn't worked it out):
New Interpretation of fab 1980's series "V".. Hope they don't mess it up!!- From the trailer it looks tentively promising..
1st episodes of original series were hard hitting (for primetime TV).. mirroring how easily something like Germany of the 1930's could still (and since has- sadly more than once) happen including genocide & in particular Holocoust.. Hopefully it will do same.. With 21st Century Twist
Coming to U.S. 2009-10 schedule - hopefully U.K. will see it too (quickly PLEASE!)
This is my last few selections of (mostly) blogs, as well as other internet 'stuff' i've found thought provoking/interesting or funny/entertaining... all posted on "Aldakila's Shared Items" @ Google Reader:

"very topical & pertinent question for me at the moment.."
via www.dailyrecord.co.uk on 5/15/09A KILLER who hacked a man to death appeared as a guest on Songs Of Praise.
Garry Brotherston told viewers he "found God" after being jailed for murdering Billy Barclay.
But Billy's disgusted family claim Brotherston is pure evil.
And they are sickened that BBC bosses allowed him on the show.
Billy's mum Jean, 75, said: "I wish he would die, that is the truth. Despite what he says, he has never said sorry for what he did."
via www.ekklesia.co.uk on 5/15/09While some have tried to talk up a Church of Scotland ‘split’ over sexuality, the great majority of the Presbyterian denomination’s members are horrified by a hard-line minister’s attempt to equate the campaign for inclusion with Nazism, say those involved in preparing for the Church’s forthcoming General Assembly.
In a sermon which religious leaders and politicians have condemned as “deeply disturbing”, the Rev Ian Watson invoked the failure to stand up to the Nazi annexation of the Rhineland in 1938 as a parallel for the refusal of many in the Church of Scotland to join an anti-gay crusade.

Aldakila:
"Well Said & needs to be heard"
“The only way to come to God is by taking off any spiritual mask. The real you has to meet the real God. He is a person.
Your heart could be, and often is, askew. That’s okay. You have to begin with what is real. Jesus didn’t come for the righteous. He came for sinners. All of us qualify. The very things we try to get rid of—our weariness, our distractedness, our messiness—are what get us in the front door! That’s how the gospel works. That’s how prayer works.
In bringing your real self to Jesus, you give him the opportunity to work on the real you, and you will slowly change. The kingdom comes when Jesus becomes king of your life. But is has to be your life. You can’t create a kingdom that doesn’t exist, where you try to be better than you really are. Jesus calls that hypocrisy—putting on a mask to cover the real you.
So instead of being paralyzed by who you are, begin with who you are. That’s how the gospel works. God begins with you.”
—Paul Miller, A Praying Life
Thoughtful Words...

Favourite Photo of the year so far...
Taken in Robertson Park, Renfrew
Thanks to the swan for coming so close (he got closer!! little intimidating!)
21-25This is the kind of life you've been invited into, the kind of life Christ lived.
He suffered everything that came his way so you would know that it could be done, and also know how to do it, step-by-step.
He never did one thing wrong, Not once said anything amiss.
They called him every name in the book and he said nothing back.
He suffered in silence, content to let God set things right.
He used his servant body to carry our sins to the Cross so we could be rid of sin, free to live the right way.
His wounds became your healing.
You were lost sheep with no idea who you were or where you were going.
Now you're named and kept for good by the Shepherd of your souls.

6-8Christ arrives right on time to make this happen. He didn't, and doesn't, wait for us to get ready.
He presented himself for this sacrificial death when we were far too weak and rebellious to do anything to get ourselves ready.
And even if we hadn't been so weak, we wouldn't have known what to do anyway.
We can understand someone dying for a person worth dying for, and we can understand how someone good and noble could inspire us to selfless sacrifice.
But God put his love on the line for us by offering his Son in sacrificial death while we were of no use whatever to him.
The Message Bible can put things so well (almost my favourite bible translation)
