Rush on aircons for the Eskimos????

Here are signs that global warming is real. Inuit people are better known for building igloos during hunts on the polar ice. With global warming speeding up, Inuit in the village of Kuujjuaq in Quebec, Canada, are installing 10 air conditioners for about 25 office workers. Temperatures in Kuujjuaq have hit 31 degree Celsius in late July.

What's important

I was browsing my way thought the important backstage news of the wrestling world when i think i came across my perfect job. Have a look at this:WWE is now looking to hire a Video Blurring Editor. The WWE Career website states "main responsibility is to apply a blur effect over portions of video which the WWE does not want viewers to see. The effect is applied using Apple computer software, specifically Final Cut Pro combined with Motion. The blurrer will also be responsible for inputting video from tape into the edit stations as well as printing finished work back to tape." Such a mundane sounding job but only in the eyes of our always looking for excitement mentality. I mean it seems like a small stupid job but has the potential with one minor omission to cost the company thousands or even put them off the air. Who can forget the 'nipplegate' affair in the Superbowl where an 'accident' cost millions, MTV lost the right to host the half time show ever and wide sweeping changes rang out through the television world. Therefore this job is a very important one in the scheme of things. As Christians we seem to forget our importance to God or to the church. There are numerous verses in the bible telling us how important we (each and everyone of us) are to God but when was the last time you sat down and thought that 'my best friend is the creator of the universe'.
