Yeah it is time for another christmas celebration, the 2007th birthday of the Lord Jesus Christ who died for the sins of the world.
A time for sober reflection, time for sharing gifts and reunion with family members.
I love this time of the year.

Not happy
Hmmm, the weekend came and it's gone and Arsenal still blazing the trail.
Traditionally i should not be happy as a Chelsea fan to see my beloved
team lose to Arsenal, but that is football anything can happen.
Am still crying and everyone around seems to be begging, but i feel there
is a enough reason to cry with Chelsea trailing six points behind the league
leaders Arsenal.
Like i have an option, but not until i have a bucket full of tears i wont
consider stopping.

Wonders shall never end.
SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -- Nine people who pleaded guilty to raping a 10-year-old girl were given suspended sentences or probation, national media said Monday in reports that prompted outrage and a review of sexual assault cases in remote Aboriginal communities.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said he was "horrified" by the reports of the result of the trial of a group of juveniles and young men charged with the rape of the child in the settlement of Aurukun in northern Queensland state in 2005.
National media reported that District Court Judge Sarah Bradley placed six of the offenders, who were minors younger than 17 at the time of the rape, on 12 months probation and recorded no convictions against them. She gave suspended six-month prison sentences to the three other defendants, aged 17, 18 and 26.
Bradley told the offenders in her sentencing remarks that it was illegal to have sex with anyone younger than 16, but that the victim in this case "was not forced and she probably agreed to have sex with all of you," The Australian newspaper and Australian Broadcasting Corp. reported.
Aboriginal leaders slammed the result as too lenient and demanded Bradley be fired.
Queensland Attorney-General Kerry Shine said the government would appeal the sentences, and Premier Anna Bligh announced a review of all sexual assault cases in Aboriginal communities on Cape York, the remote region where the assault occurred.
Bradley's office did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The judge was quoted in The Australia newspaper on Monday as saying the penalties were "appropriate" and had been sought by the prosecution.
"I am not in a position to comment and I refer you to my sentencing remarks," Bradley told the newspaper.
The case comes less than six months after the federal government announced a radical intervention to combat what an official report found was rampant child sex abuse in Aboriginal societies in the Outback Northern Territory.
The government moved to seize powers over the communities from the territorial government and impose restrictions on alcohol sales and distribution of pornography, among other measures.
While the report's authors said the problem of child sex abuse was probably rife in remote Aboriginal communities in other areas, the plan only applied to the Northern Territory. There the federal government has constitutional powers it does not have over Australia's six states.
"I'm disgusted and appalled by the reports that I've seen ... on this case," Rudd told reporters in Queensland, his home state. "I am horrified by cases like this, involving sexual violence against women and children. My attitude is one of zero tolerance."
Queensland Aboriginal activist Boni Robertson said there was no excuse for the rape or the leniency of the sentences.
"There is nothing culturally, there is nothing morally, there is nothing socially and there is definitely nothing legally that would ever allow this sort of decision to be made," she said.
Bligh said she had ordered the review of all sentences in the past two years for sexual assault on the Cape York Peninsula to ensure there was not a trend of leniency.
"The nature of the sentences in this case are so far from community expectations I have to say I am alarmed, and I am not prepared to just write this off as an unusual one-off case," she said.
Senior state officials said they were not aware of the case until it was reported in the media.

Another weekend and you know what that means......football actions.
I want to talk about the African players that did us proud,
Muntari scored a double................did he really do that? The win was even more thriling because Portsmouth got its first win at Villa Park in 37 years, and its sixth successive away victory in the league.
Aiyegbeni Yakubu scored a hat-trick in Everton's 3-0 win over in the 51st, 61st and 79th minutes at Goodison Park. His first came on a rebound after Tim Cahill's volley was saved by Fulham goalkeeper Antti Niemi.
He headed in his second and took a cross from Steven Pienaar to score the third.
Obafemi Martins leveled for Newcastle in the 37th on a penalty kick.
Let's see what happens later today.....more football actions

Teachers taking over
Is it fair to charge teachers for taking advantage of willing kids when they have sex with them? What about the fact that a teacher will go the extra mile and take the willing young person to the pharmacy and purchase condoms? Isn't that using protection?
Just a question. See the latest teacher from Lake Mary, FL.
