I've had enough of someone else's propaganda. I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against. I'm a human being first and foremost, and as such I am for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.
P.s. creation did not create me. Allah did. He is Sovereign. If by creation you meant God, maybe you will overstand my point when I say He at the...
"and consistently she does not put in that level of work." - Of course not, she's a 'diversity' hire, not a meritocracy hire. Crikey, what did you...

Wonderful yes but if the organs are filthed, none of that makes any real impact. When the organs are clean, you don't get stressed. Tense yes,...

There were no major traffic accidents, even though all traffic lights were out. Drivers here have good common sense. Even the Police were impressed with how we handled ourselves!
There was only one house fire due to candles being left unattended.
One of our major Hospitals (Flinders Medical Centre) had a back-up power generator failure due to a faulty petrol pump. Critical care patients were transferred to the Private Hospital next door. Everything went smoothly. Nurses not rostered on for that night came in and simply asked "Where do you need me?"
At least two tornadoes began to form, but didn't touch ground and dissipated, thank goodness!
Supermarkets were inundated with unprepared customers wanting batteries, candles, food, torches (flash lights) and water. Many people had corn chips and salsa dip for dinner. Oh, and chocolate!
22 transmission towers were twisted in on themselves and pulled out of the ground according to an eyewitness.
Probably one of the worst things to come out of this event was the amount of food that has had to be thrown out. I spent Friday night throwing out thousands of dollars worth of food into a giant skip (2.2M wide x 5M long x 1.8M deep). Although our supermarkets have back-up generators to handle emergency lighting and enough power for doors and the checkouts they're not big enough to keep refrigeration going. One skip had already been filled on Thursday, my Nightfill team filled one on Friday and another will be filled this evening.
All in all though we came through this unprecedented event quite well. Very proud of my fellow South Australians!
Can't say the same for our politicians, but then, they're politicians so what do you expect! :/
