That unforgettable year became known as the Summer of Love—a time when an extraordinary burst of creativity and cultural expression reshaped the musical and social landscape across the UK and the USA.

Jesus wasn’t too high and mighty for anyone. He warned wealthy and well-known people that earthly goods will be worth nothing when we get to heaven. Only the true riches of knowing God can never be taken. When we live close to the Lord, we’re rich. Life becomes much more enjoyable when we live with eternity in view.

"Old Harbour woman shot dead in US; ex-lover said to be suspect" Service start: 1:31:00 Many residents of the town of Old Harbour in St Catherine are now mourning, this after a popular female native of the area was shot in the head, allegedly by her ex-boyfriend in Lithonia, Georgia in the United States on Saturday. The deceased is Shanae Smith, popularly known as 'Nae Nae', a past student of Old Harbour High School in St Catherine. She is said to be in her 20s. Smith was reportedly pursuing higher education in the US at the time of her death. US law enforcers are searching for the suspect, who is also believed to be Jamaican. The details into the incident are sketchy, but a report from Fox5 Atlanta said DeKalb County police confirmed that the shooting took place on Fields Drive and Chupp Lane in Lithonia shortly before 3pm on Saturday.

Logistics of the Future | Engineering Documentary Ticket To The Future: The Evolution of Travel: https://youtu.be/j_-HHbRa8-w Modern logistics! It would be hard to imagine our daily digital lives without them. As consumers, we can shop online every day and any hour of the day. We expect everything to arrive on time – whether clothing, printer spare parts or a set of screws. Online shopping is booming: in 2018, courier, express and parcel services, the so-called CEP sector, delivered around 3.5 billion shipments in Germany alone. And this is an upward trend. But how does all this work so smoothly, safely and on time? After all, we live in turbulent times: digitalization, climate crisis, growing world population and political and economic instability. How does the logistics industry rise to such challenges? For answers to these questions we need to dive deep into the world of modern logistics. Our film takes us into huge, fully connected warehouses, watching as fleets of cargo planes are prepared for take-off at night and accompanying couriers on delivery bikes on "the last mile" to the customer. We look at one of the world's largest logistics providers at work: Deutsche Post DHL Group. We are more looking into solutions of robotization, working together with human workers within the warehouse on one hand. But also artificial intelligence and big data crunching is getting more and more important. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe Free Documentary Channel for free: https://bit.ly/2YJ4XzQ Join the club and become a Free Documentary Patron: https://www.patreon.com/freedocumentary Facebook: https://bit.ly/2QfRxbG Twitter: https://bit.ly/2QlwRiI ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #FutureOfLogistics ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary is dedicated to bringing high-class documentaries to you on YouTube for free.

One Blood ‎– Be Thankful Genre: Reggae Style: Lovers Rock Year: 1980

In a grand experiment, animals threatened on the Australian mainland, were released onto an island, which had been isolated for 8000 years. Koalas, platypus, emus, mallee fowl, hairy nosed wombats, ringtail possums and others were shipped to Kangaroo Island off South Australia. The outcomes of the grand experiment have been far reaching and in some cases catastrophic. Some of the native invaders died out. Others like the platypus appear to be thriving without apparent consequences. But the koalas, no longer restricted to their preferred manna gums, are spreading out across the island, targeting, and demolishing gumtree species previously thought unpalatable to their taste. They threaten not only precious Kangaroo Island species of manna, but also the survival of creatures who depend on its canopy and its nectar. Scientists are picking up the pieces. Less than three hundred of the rare Kangaroo Island Glossy Black Cockatoos survive and nesting failures mean only 20 chicks survive to fledge each year. Biologist Lynn Pedler, climbing to hollows eighty feet up, watches over the precious annual hatch of chicks. The chicks face a growing list of predators from the abundant brush tailed possums to other hollow nesting cockatoos recently arrived from the mainland. Tammar Wallabies are gone from much of their mainland range but are an agricultural pest on the island, where they are eaten for birthday dinners. The quiescent embryos of the tammars are all reactivated on the day of the summer solstice, and all young are born 40 days later. There are an estimated one million tammars on Kangaroo Island. The Rosenberg Goanna is abundant because there was no aboriginal population. The goannas ate the young of an earlier rabbit invasion and saved the island. In this the most southerly of their range, the goannas survive by incubating their young in temperature controlled termite mounds. Some males eat the young of their own species, and Dr Brian Green is blood testing to reveal the blood relationship of predator and targeted young. Above all the issues, is the unsolved koala plague. The recommendations of a scientific task force to cull koalas were overturned by a government frightened of the tourist backlash. But the problem doesn’t go away, and on KI the koalas are steadily eating their way through a limited supply of vegetation. The issue is causing management problems for an island increasingly visited by high spending international tourists. It seems that the wildlife we choose to save has as much to do with politics, economics and sentimentality as it does with science.
