Aussie software revolutionising the car industry across the world
Written by Tess Sanders Lazarus
Car dealerships across Australia and New Zealand are now enjoying the benefits of a new cloud based system called 'SalesLogs' which is enabling dealerships to stay on top of their business and achieve operating efficiencies.
SalesLogs was developed and launched by John and Jannie Fountain in 2014. Since launching, the business has enjoyed rapid growth and its user base has increased year on year. SalesLogs is now used by many dealerships and the business is preparing to launch into Asia, Europe and the United States.
"Research shows that the motor vehicle industry is continuing to suffer from shrinking margins. It is more important than ever that dealerships have systems in place that enable them to run as efficiently and effectively as possible," John said.
"SalesLogs enables managers within a dealership to manage and track their analytics, finances, trends and staff performances in a transparent real time manner.
With his extensive industry experience, John knows the success of a dealership comes from the performance of a team, and not an individual. But working in a busy dealership can make it difficult to keep on top of the team, their productivity, and their accountability. Through an end to end business knowledge of a dealership, and his natural curiosity, John in partnership with Janice, has developed a cloud based platform to solve these business problems.
"SalesLogs looks and feels like a spreadsheet which has been superimposed with an intuitive interface and collaboration functionality," John added.
"I started selling cars in 2000 and used excel spreadsheets to help keep track of my sales figures. Other managers noticed what I was doing and then started paying me to manage their sales logs as well.
"By the time I had worked through every department in the industry, my spreadsheets had evolved quite a bit and had become pretty complicated and large. I pretty much reached the limit of my excel capabilities and decided to put together a team of programmers to create a cloud version which could run a dealership. As a result, SalesLogs was born.
"Sometimes the best ideas are the most simple ones that solve a common problem.
"We are living in an age where we need to use technology to solve business problems. Business is becoming more and more complicated and there are more moving parts to manage. This requires a more collaborative, transparent and accountable approach which is what SalesLogs provides to dealerships."
Since launching SalesLogs has amassed a large group of dealership clients including AHG, Brian Hilton Motor Group, AutoSports, McCarroll's Automotive Group, and many more.
John and his team understand that the motor and technology industry are constantly evolving, and recognise the importance and value of a constantly evolving management tool like SalesLogs.
"SalesLogs enables fast real time collaboration," John added.
"While we are rolling out SalesLogs to more and more dealerships and actively preparing to enter new country markets, we are also working closely with our clients to continually enhance and improve the product.
"I am proud that an Australian vehicle technology company is helping to improve the business of dealerships across the country and across the ditch. Soon our product will be used right across the world. We may not manufacture vehicles any more, but we sure can make a valuable contribution to keeping the car industry alive and healthy."

Bishop Michael Curry Says He Prays For President Trump
WPA Pool/Getty Images
By Paula Rogo	· May 27, 2018 October 24, 2020
The Most Rev. Michael Curry is using his recent bout of Royal Wedding fame to try to unite the country during this period of intense political divisions under President Donald Trump.
And despite the division, Curry says that he prays for the country's commander-in-chief.
"I pray for Donald Trump, I do," he told the Guardian. "He's a child of God, just like the immigrant is a child of God."
Curry spoke to the British publication about his Reclaiming Jesus movement, which is fighting against "a dangerous crisis of moral and political leadership at the highest levels of our government and in our churches".
The movement, with its six-core principles, asks the faithful to reject policies that ban refugees and immigrants. It also pushes back directly on white supremacy, while also emphasizing that this religious movement has no affiliation to any political side.
"My hope and prayer is that what we're really doing is helping the average Christian person of faith find their voice," Curry told the Guardian. "We're trying to find a way to bring people together and the values that we share is our starting place for doing that."
Curry, who is the first black head of the Episcopal Church, gave a rousing sermon during the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle earlier this month. But he told news outlets that he thought the initial invitation was a joke.
"I got a phone call, and I didn't believe it," he told Robin Roberts on Good Morning America. "A member of my staff called and said, 'They'd like you to preach at the royal wedding,' and I said, 'Get out of here it's April Fools. You've got to be kidding."

Graham McTavish On His Favorite 'Men In Kilts' & 'Clanlands' Memories With Sam Heughan
ByCaitlin Gallagher Dec. 8, 2020
While most Outlander fans would love to be a fly on a wall when Graham McTavish and Sam Heughan hang out, such sneaky surveillance is no longer necessary. The Outlander stars are giving everyone access to their Scottish road trip through their book Clanlands, the companion audiobook, and their upcoming TV series Men in Kilts. Over a Zoom video call in November, McTavish spoke to me about some of the most memorable moments from the whole road trip experience and what to look out for from him and Heughan when Men in Kilts hits Starz.
"I guess I hadn't fully appreciated the lengths that Sam would go to in order to put me in peril, really, and just mess with me," McTavish tells me about his "mischievous" Outlander nephew-turned-friend. "Which is great. It got me out of my comfort zone."
McTavish living life outside his comfort zone was well documented in Clanlands, which topped The New York Times Best Seller list in both the hardcover nonfiction and combined print and e-book nonfiction categories the week of Nov. 22. The book follows them as they tour historical locations in their shared home country of Scotland. It's a mix of history class, travel book, Outlander trivia, and buddy comedy as the actors go on some adventures... and tease the hell out of one another along the way.
.@SamHeughan, @grahammctavish, and one of the most beautiful countries on Earth… now that's an adventure worth watching. #MenInKilts: A Roadtrip with Sam and Graham premieres early 2021 on @STARZ. pic.twitter.com/X9ISc1Wkbu

Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani and her three sons were all seen wearing camo last weekend on a mini-road trip to Lake Arrowhead, CA. They stayed at the resort there and spent part of Saturday shopping in the village. Sources say they looked very happy.
Finally – tonight Dolly Parton's having a 3-hour telethon for victims of the Tennessee wildfires. Luke Bryan surprised firefighters the other day who helped in Gatlinburg, TN when he showed up at their annual Christmas lunch. Zac Brown loaded his 18 wheeler, 'Cookie,' with food and resources and just dropped them off in Gatlinburg.

Ryan Kesler scores twice as the Vancouver Canucks beat the Ottawa Senators 4-1
OTTAWA - It's a good thing the Vancouver Canucks and Ottawa Senators didn't wind up in the same conference after the NHL's recent realignment.
Ryan Kesler scored twice and Henrik Sedin had two assists in Vancouver's 4-1 win on Saturday that was dominated by physical play that made the rare game between the two far-flung teams seem like a divisional matchup.
"We played real physical," said Senators goaltender Craig Anderson, who made 24 saves. "We were taking the body and making good body checks and we were playing the game we wanted to play.
"We just didn't get the result we wanted on the scoreboard."
The win was the fourth in a row for the Canucks (18-10-1) and their ninth in 10 games. The Senators (13-13-4), on the other hand, have now lost three straight and have just one win in their past six games.
Rough play led to both teams having five power plays. The Canucks scored twice with the man advantage while the Senators went 0-for-5 in front of a sellout crowd of 19,171.
Dale Weise, who scored late in the third period to secure the win for the Canucks, challenged Nick Foligno to a fight late in the first period in response to an earlier hit Foligno delivered along the boards that left Cody Hodgson a little wobbly.
"It was a clean hit and I don't expect any repercussions from that. I fought Weise and that was over with," said Foligno, who then felled Kesler with a hit in the second period that earned him a boarding minor along with a misconduct.
"They were going to come after me all night, so (Weise) asked me to go so we went. I don't mind that part of the game but I was more disappointed that we didn't get the win."
Hodgson didn't return to the game following the hit but Canucks coach Alain Vigneault said he was fine and wanted to return but was kept out as a precautionary measure.
Vigneault added that the Foligno hit was clean, but one by Chris Neil later in the game wasn't.
"I'm more concerned about the hit where Neil tried to take Alex Burrows' head off," said Vigneault. "Those are the types of hits we're trying to get rid of."
NHL senior vice president of player safety Brendan Shanahan will no doubt be reviewing the game tape.
Alexander Edler had the other goal for the Canucks who will now move on to Columbus for the third stop in a five-game road trip. Roberto Luongo made 24 saves for the win.
Colin Greening buried a rebound from the slot late in the second period for the Senators only goal. It came after the Canucks had built a 3-0 lead.
"We'll take some positives out of this game and move forward," Anderson said. "There are going to be nights where you're not going to be at you best, so we just have look at this game and build on it and build off some of the good stuff we were doing."
Goals from Edler and Kesler in the first period gave the Canucks a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes. Edler scored on a point shot through traffic just 1:10 into the games and just four seconds after the Canucks went on the power play.
"You always want to get off to an early lead so it was nice to work with that the rest of the way," Luongo said. "As a team we've really stepped up our game and even if we're off we're finding ways to win."
Kesler then gave the Canucks a 2-0 lead at 8:23 as he redirected a Jannik pass past Anderson for his first of two goals in the game.
Kesler's second of the night gave the Canucks a 3-0 lead with their second power-play goal of the game. Kesler was in the right place at the right time and slipped the puck into a wide-open net from the top of the crease after the Sedin twins did some solid work to knock the puck loose from the side of the net.
Notes: Senators forward Nick Foligno had a six-game point streak snapped Saturday.…With Matt Carkner and Peter Regin getting back into the lineup, Filip Kuba is the only remaining injured Senators' player. He missed his sixth game Saturday with an upper-body injury.…Nikita Filatov, Zenon Kenopka and Sergei Gonchar were healthy scratches Saturday for the Senators…Andrew Ebbett with (foot), Aaron Volpatti (shoulder) and David Booth (knee) missed their 13th, fourth and second games respectively Saturday for the Canucks…Andrew Alberts and Alexander Sulzer were the two healthy scratches for the Canucks Saturday.

Elections 2017 will be tests for BJP's 'top down' campaign strategy, Modi's strength
Politics Amitabh Tiwari and Subhash Chandra Jan 18, 2017 13:11:14 IST
Five states, including the most populous Uttar Pradesh (UP), are slated to go for polls in February and March 2017. BJP is continuing with its policy of not announcing CM candidates. The fact is that given the umbrella coalition of castes (Forwards, OBCs and some Dalit segments) and the limited list of candidates who can appeal to all groups, Amit Shah has little choice. Instead, the focus will be on using demonetisation-related incentives, development and Modi to win the election.
Traditionally, the party focused on a 'bottom up' approach where RSS cadre worked to mobilise support for the BJP. It was extremely important as media penetration and literacy was quite low. In late 1970s, erstwhile Jan Sangh along with the RSS and associated parivar units mobilised grass root workers and built a strong foundation for the party. The Ram Janmabhoomi fuelled strong bonds with the party both at the local and national level, leading to its success in states like Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan and Gujarat in the 1990s. Top leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Advani, Modi, SS Chouhan, Ram Singh etc have all risen up the ranks.
To expand its base nationally in the south and north east, the party has adopted 'middle up' approach in states like Karnataka and Assam. In this approach, strong local leadership (Yeddyurappa and Sonowal) and caste combinations along with a less aggressive RSS were used to drive the campaign. The rapid increase of media and literacy due to the economic boom in the last decade led to the full 'top down' approach best seen in the 2014 elections which was made into a clash of personalities — Modi vs Rahul.
In 'top down' campaign approach, central leadership designs campaign strategy, finalises ticket distribution and alliances with regional parties. Big rallies of Modi are organised to draw bumper crowds. Then, it is the local team's responsibility to get in touch with people and convert them into votes. Posters, banners all include central leadership (Modi-Shah) pictures.

This strategy has been increasingly successful given the high media penetration amongst voters. Unlike the past, there is no need to individually meet every voter. Depending on the state, an average of only 60% of the voters are met by any party worker, in Urban areas, this could be as low as 30%.
This modus operandi worked very well in state elections in 2014 just after Lok Sabha polls. In all the four states — Maharashtra, Haryana, Jammu & Kashmir and Jharkhand — BJP won and formed governments. Modi popularity was at peak during this time. All had extremely unpopular governments and the opposition was still recovering from the shock of May 2014.
In Maharashtra and Haryana, there was significant anti-incumbency against current governments. People wanted change. BJP was the only viable option available. People didn't care about leadership. Jammu and Kashmir followed the trend of alternate governments every five years. In Jharkhand, people were fed up of corrupt and inefficient coalition of JMM-Congress and opted for stability.
Given the stupendous success in 2014 in national elections and four state elections after that, the Modi-Shah combine believe that a well-thought-through campaign run from the Centre with all the skill sets and experience available at one place can run a better campaign than leaving it to the State which may not have all the strategic thinking, the skill sets or the experience. These skill sets could be related to organising large events, social media, voter feedback, candidate selection, messaging or advertising. In each of these areas, the central BJP leadership has developed excellent teams with very high order skill sets or brought in people like Sunil Kanugulu who ran the excellent DMK campaign in Tamil Nadu.
The strategy did not work effectively in 2015 state elections where BJP was pitted against strong and popular local leaders particularly those who were not from the Congress party. In Bihar, Nitish didn't suffer from any anti-incumbency and in-fact his popularity was higher than Modi (Net Likeability score as per CSDS survey).
In Delhi, there was significant displeasure with then Shiela Dikshit regime. It was a stage set for BJP-style top down campaign approach. However, there was a credible challenger – AAP – which had a local face and ran a directly opposite campaign style — door to door, public participation in selection of candidates, drafting of manifesto among other things. BJP's top down strategy faltered against AAP's bottom up strategy.
Learning from past mistakes, BJP did tweak its strategy in 2016 polls in Assam. It had extremely unpopular Congress regime which was incumbent for 15 years, on the other hand the BJP had done well in 2014 and had a strong CM candidate of its own. So reverting back to a local leadership supported by a centrally driven campaign (middle-up) bore fruits.
The weakness of a centrally driven campaign, specifically for heavily populated States like UP and Bihar is that tiny cultural nuances that are easily understood by locals are sometimes lost by people from outside the State, for example, Modi's DNA remark on Nitish and his bid style package announcement for Bihar.
The strategy of centrally driven campaigns is similar in some ways to the strategy of the Congress party where key decisions about a state election are taken by the central leadership. However, unlike the Congress party where the central leadership is usually protected from state losses, the direct running of the campaign exposes the Modi-Shah combine to the vagaries of State election results.
Should they lose, it will be a big setback for PM. The anti-Modi forces in party and NDA will gain strength. RSS may force Modi to consult partners in key decision-making. Advani may get a new lease of life and try to push for Presidency with support of disgruntled NDA partners.
However, if the BJP wins UP, the upside benefits are also high. Modi becomes stronger in the party and will be able to create a larger than life image of himself. He will be able to get President of his choice elected. Bihar and Delhi will be forgotten as an aberration.
2017 will not only be a defining moment of Modi's tenure but also his campaign style and strategy. It is to be seen whether this strategy would work in Uttar Pradesh and other states this year.

A group calling itself the Jamaah Al Mubalighin Communication Forum burned down a mosque belonging to the "deviant" Ahmadiyah sect in Parakan Salak village in Sukabumi regency, West Java, early Monday.
Sukabumi Police chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Gunthor Ghafar told The Jakarta Post the incident began when the forum members met Sunday for a Koran reading session at At-Taqwa Mosque, about 700 meters from Ahmadiyah's Al Furqon Mosque.
The forum members then issued a five-point ultimatum to the Ahmadiyah members, including a demand they "return to Islam" and take down the Ahmadiyah sign from Al Furqon Mosque.
Head of Ahmadiyah in Sukabumi, Asep, told the forum members they needed time to discuss the ultimatum.
The two sides then held a meeting around 7 p.m. on Sunday. During the meeting, Ahmadiyah agreed to remove its sign from the mosque, with the promise that the forum members would not vandalize Ahmadiyah property.
However, forum members attacked the mosque and burned it down shortly after midnight.
Earlier this month a government team — the Coordinating Board for Monitoring Mystical Beliefs in Society (Bakor Pakem) — recommended the Ahmadiyah sect be banned because its doctrines deviate from the teachings of Islam.
An Ahmadiyah spokesman told reporters in Jakarta the board's recommendation to ban the group on the grounds that it is heretical had led to an increase in attacks on its mosques.
"The recommendation has caused an escalation in the destruction of mosques run by Ahmadiyah across Indonesia," the spokesman, Shamsir Ali, said as quoted by Reuters.
A policeman guarding the Sukabumi mosque was reported to have been hurt in the attack and police questioned eight people in connection with the incident. The National Police later announced two men had been named as suspects.
"We are still investigating this case. We are still discussing the case with the (Sukabumi) prosecutor's office and military command," said Gunthor.
Asep demanded the police provide protection for the some 3,000 sect members in the regency. He also hoped police could catch and punish those responsible for the attack on the mosque.
In Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara, Ahmadiyah followers, who have been accommodated at the city's Transito building for months after being evicted from their homes, read their creed at the shelter's mosque.
The reading of the creed was intended to show the public that their beliefs are the same as other Muslims.
"Herewith I swear in the name of Allah and Rasulullah (the Prophet Muhammad) that we have no other God other than Allah, no religion other than Islam and no last prophet other than Muhammad …," M. Syaiful Uyun, an Ahmadiyah official in West Nusa Tenggara, said in leading the other members.
The members hoped their demonstration would counter claims the group was heretical and deserving of a ban.
"Bakor Pakem's recommendation is not based on facts and is blasphemous," said one Ahmadiyah member who asked not to be identified.
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono told the Nahdatul Ulama youth wing Ansor on Sunday that Indonesia could benefit from the rise in global food prices.
"In my spiritual contemplation a few days back with friends in Yogyakarta, I arrived at a conclusion that the surge in staple food prices is actually a blessing instead of a disaster," the President said during a ceremony to mark the 74th anniversary of Ansor in Pasuruan, East Java.
Nahdatul Ulama is the largest Muslim group in the country with ties to the National Awakening Party (PKB) and former president Abdurrahman "Gus Dur" Wahid.
Many countries with limited land and natural resources, he said, are suffering from food price inflation, but not Indonesia, as long as we can maintain and improve our agriculture and farming industries, particularly those producing rice, corn, soybeans, sugar, beef, chicken and eggs.
"God willing, (the food price inflation) will be a blessing. Therefore, I urge all members of Ansor to join the government in the effort to increase our food production from now on and ahead," he said.
This year, he said, East Java was likely to enjoy surplus rice production of three million tons, a significant improvement from three years ago when many doubted the country could regain rice self-sufficiency.
"Last year's production already met demand. This year, if nothing extraordinary happens, we will enjoy a rice production surplus," he said, adding that lessons from the rice industry should be implemented in other food-producing industries.
Last week, the government raised the benchmark price for rice purchases by state logistics agency Bulog in order to increase farmers' incomes and discourage the smuggling of the cereal by addressing the price disparity for rice in Indonesia with that in neighboring countries.
The price of unhusked paddy delivered to Bulog now stands at Rp 2,600 (28 US cents) a kilogram, while stored rice is sold at Rp 4,300.
To secure domestic supplies, the government also has issued a regulation appointing Bulog as the sole exporter of rice and setting a minimum three million tons annual rice production surplus as a prerequisite for exports.
So far, Bulog has absorbed a total of 1.4 million tons of rice, and is aiming for 2.43 million tons by the end of the year as the country's total rice production is projected to grow by 5 percent from 33 million tons last year.
Commenting on the surge in oil prices, President Yudhoyono said the country needed to examine where it stood on the situation.
PARIS, APRIL 7, 2008 (Zenit.org).- Between 150 and 200 Muslims convert to Catholicism each year in France, many of them the children of mixed marriages, reported a French daily.
According to the April 2 edition of Le Monde, the topic has been little discussed in recent years. But the Church is now affirming that religious liberty and reciprocity are essential.
Bishop Michel Dubost of Evry is a determined participant in the dialogue with Islam. A dozen Muslims are baptized every year in his diocese. This year, one was baptized in private.
Le Monde said the situation of Catholic converts from Muslim is often dire. The majority face misunderstandings from those around them, it reported, and others reproach them for having "disowned their culture." Some have hid their conversion even from members of their family.
Despite their growing numbers, converts from Islam to Christianity, including all confessions, do not exceed the number converting to Islam. In August of 2006, the French daily La Croix reported that some 3,600 people in France convert to Islam every year.
Geert Wilders is a die-hard masochist who enjoys dispensing "Dutch treat".
Muslims only wonder why Wilders disrupts the quiet of others while he is never interrupted. I think he is just seeking fame for himself by sacrificing the peace. Congratulation, Wilders. See you in hell.
In fact the protests against the anti-Islam film have been going on not only at Jakarta's Dutch Embassy but also at the Dutch Consulate in Medan.
It is not a matter of maturity or immaturity of Indonesian Muslims, but the feeling of togetherness and brotherhood with Westerners, mainly Europeans, as a part of the global community that should be maintained.
The incorrect opinion on Islam must be buried to create a global life of harmony.
The less violent protests against Fitna do not indicate the growing maturity of Indonesian Muslims. It indicates the growing faithless of them.
Being a Muslim, I hate people who humiliate Islam without any knowledge about it. Fitna is mockery, reflecting the producer's madness for popularity.
I'm a Christian and absolutely condemn Fitna as made based on like and dislike. I hope Muslim clerics still continue to give cool and fresh sermons (da'wah).
I think Fitna will hurt Muslims and it may spark conflicts.
The government bans Fitna, but Ahmadiyah followers in many areas like Lombok in West Nusa Tenggara and Kuningan, West Java, still get harassed even by officials of local governments.
Until now, seven mosques belonging to Ahmadiyah Muslims, located in Kuningan, West Java, are still closed by the local government, claiming for the sake of safety.
It is ridiculous. While the government and Muslims in this country condemn the film Fitna, they still allow violence against Ahmadiyah followers.
Experiences are part of our daily life. They give us how to learn and to live the life. They tell us how to face our daily problem. Everything that we have coming from experiences in our life.
Nowadays, life is complex. The problem in front of us is more complex too. But how to face and overcome are the main things. The first of all is goals in our life. If we have goals, we will be active to reach them. If we have dreams, we must get them. If we think we can, we can do it. So the goals is the most important in the life.
As we know, we live in the world of higher technology and information era. We are in the global village. Like media said: this era is globalization. The era of globalization creates new problems.
The problems must be solved. We can not run from our daily life problems. If we can pass them, these are the best teacher for us in the future. So experience is the best teacher.
In addition, the main thing of life is love. If we love the life we will live it well. Love is a clue in relationships with others and God. We can live together because of love. Love makes us having a compassion with ourselves and others.
Eveyone was born to live the life from God. Life is a grace. It is a gift from God to us. So we should live the life well. We should give thanks to Lord for the life He has given to us. As religious person, we believe that God gives us the power to live.
As a grace, the life also be a struggle. We have to face anything about life like variety of experiences. Both happiness and sufferings are parts of our life.
Experience contents of both sweetness and bitterness. The happiness make us energic to go on the life. Bitterness is that we should reflect and take a values of them.
For some people, the life is hard because many problem come on and on to them. But, although the life is hard, it should be face patiently.
As a part of life, experience make us growing well. Experiences need the integrity of ourselves. We ourselves should realize that the instruments of our personality. They are love, strength, weakness and assertion within ourselves.
Anyway, the important thing in the life is how to give the meaning to all of our experiences. And so, the life is how to take worth of them. I mean that the experience is the best teacher for us. We will not fall to the same foolishness or mistakes if we could take the values from our experiences.
I want to say in this section, the experiences of our life is complex but also beautiful. It tells us many learning from our social life. It teaches us facing the life with the others. It means we can grow perfectly if we live with our neighbour. The perfect of life can be reach only by living with others. It is social life.
There are many problems in my life. One of them is how to fullfil the needs of my family. I should send my children to school. I must give them good education. These are also my duties as parents to them.
Sometime I ask myself, how should I look for some money. How should I get a good salary from my job. The questions make me reflecting about my life.
But I ever think that I will never be able to fullfill all of the needs of my family. Should I do a bad way? Is it enough asking myself only? What should I do to become a succes person in life? I can reach nothing if I am too lazy, lack of knowledge, and lack of faith. I can not be a succes person if talking only without action. Finally, I make a decision that the best for me is action and action in my life.
The life will be nothing if it is not planned. It will be worth if we can live it as grace and struggle. There is not again "No Action, Talking Only" (NATO).
Planning is the best way to make life well. It means we should make a real goal of our life. The goal is the most important to live the life.
What do goals for me? They help me set priorities. Something become vitally important, while others cease to have any importance.
Goals help me set my schedule and efforts, not only over long periods of time, but daily. A person with goals does not want to waste time.
Goals help me balance my life. Staying healthy and feeling good – which involve proper nutrition, adequate sleep, times of relaxation and recreation, and daily exercise – become important because they are linked to the ability to accomplish goals.
Goals that I have planned are how to get a good salary and how to fullfil the needs of my family and how could I be a succes person in the life. They are my priorities.
Where there is a will, there is a way, like people know. By sharing my problem to my leader in my workplace, I was offered a free college's fund.Then one of my solution is going to college for getting a higher degree so that I can get a better salary. I think this is grace from God to me. I thank God for blessing me.
Solving a problem, I should know to praise the Lord ang give thanks to Him and I ask a help from Him. As a religious people, I can do nothing without bleesings from God.
In fact, the goals also mean to know where we should go. First, we find out where we are now. Then we decide a real goal to the future. We try to visualize point of end of our goal. Next, we begin doing after making an action plan. I begin from the first step and then the others. Action plan should be done with discipline. It is also done by evaluating our action plan daily.
Experience is the best teacher. I live my life well because I make plannings and goals. I do myself making decisions. The life must has goals.
I can tell everybody that the life will not be worth without goals. There are a lot of reasons. A person without goals generally has no excitement in his life. He has no enthusism for getting up in the morning. He has no ambition to make the most of everyday. Nothing energizes him.
A person without goals is wasting time and without a sense of direction. The life as it comes and passes it without something new.
A person without goals is often very critical of others, especially those who are succesful or who are working hard to achieve particular goals. The person without goals basically does not like himself very much. He does not believe that the life is grace and struggle. To make himlsef better, he tend to criticize others, hoping to bring them down to his level.
I think that everybody must choose a life with goals, not life without goals. It is because the life is grace and struggle. We live with happiness and suffer experiences. We know the life is only once, so we should live it well.
As a religious people, I believe that everything that we have is come from the God. So I thank to God for His blessings. I ask a help from the Almighty God. I need a mercy of God to me.
It is important to build relationship with God, so that I can live happily. I become patient in this life because of He gives a power to live. By loving God, I also love the others in my social life. Loving God makes me growing in the social life. My life be worth because live the life as grace and struggle.

Commercial Update: Richmond Pharmacology Ltd v Chester Overseas Ltd and others [2014] EWHC 2692 (Ch)
The High Court has recently considered whether a minority shareholder was in breach of its duties of confidentiality which it owed pursuant to the terms of a shareholders' agreement and directors' duties under section 175 of the Companies Act 2006 to avoid conflicts of interest.
The Claimant, Richmond Pharmacology Limited ("Richmond") was a contract research organisation specialising in the design and conduct of pharmaceutical clinical trials. Dr Ulrike Lorch and Dr Radivoj Arezina formed Richmond in August 2001 and they were later joined by Dr Jorg Taubel (together the "Founders").
The First Defendant, Chester Overseas Limited ("Chester") was a British Virgin Islands company which was represented by the Second and Third Defendants, Mr Milton Levine and Mr Larry Levine (the "Levines").
On 5 March 2002, a shareholders' agreement was entered into between Richmond, Chester and the Founders (the "Shareholders Agreement") pursuant to which Chester held 44% of the issued share capital in Richmond. The Founders together held the remaining 56%. The Levines were appointed to Richmond's board of directors.
Clause 13 of the Shareholders Agreement required each party to treat as strictly confidential all commercially sensitive information relating to Richmond and the Shareholders Agreement. The clause included a carve out which allowed such confidential information to be disclosed to any professional adviser or banker of the relevant party provided that the relevant party at all times procured that any person to whom any such information was disclosed treated that information as confidential.
In July 2009, Chester retained New World Corporate Finance Limited ("NWCF") to advise and assist Chester in relation to the selling of its shareholding in Richmond to the Founders by way of a management buyout, or, failing this, to a third party. After unsuccessful discussions about the proposed management buyout, NWCF proceeded to market Chester's shares in Richmond to third parties.
It was Richmond's assertion that in the course of marketing Chester's shareholding, NWCF, on behalf of the Defendants, disclosed Richmond's confidential information to third parties. In November 2012, Richmond issued proceedings against the Defendants, alleging that this had caused a substantial loss of business. Richmond sought damages or equitable compensation of £4.3 million.
The Defence
The Defendants sought to argue that clause 13, as drafted, would have precluded any sale of its minority shareholding in Richmond since confidential information about Richmond's affairs would inevitably need to be disclosed in these circumstances. The Defendants also argued that the obligation to keep information confidential could be complied with by taking care to ensure that the third party to whom such information was disclosed was trustworthy and undertook to keep that information confidential.
The Court was not convinced by the Defendants' arguments. In its view, the "ordinary and natural meaning of an obligation to treat information as confidential is that it may not be disclosed to anyone else". Though the Court recognised that there was a need for confidential information to be disclosed to third parties for the purposes of marketing the shares owned by Chester, the Court considered clause 13 to be in line with business common sense, noting that in such circumstances a "shareholder would have to seek Board approval to a sale process, involving providing confidential information to prospective purchasers". Chester was therefore found to have breached its duty of confidentiality in disclosing confidential information to NWCF and failing to ensure NWCF maintained the confidentiality of this information in accordance with the terms of the Shareholder Agreement.
The Court then considered the statutory duties which the Levines both owed to Richmond in their capacity as directors in accordance with section 175 of the Companies Act 2006.
The Court found the Levines to have breached their section 175 duty to "avoid a situation in which they had a direct or indirect interest that conflicts, or possibly may conflict, with the interests of Richmond". This finding was reached by the Court in view of the Levines' role in disclosing confidential information to NWCF and their pre-existing relationship with Chester. An objective test was applied by the Court and of no relevance to its decision was whether or not the Levines knew what they were doing was in breach of their duties or whether or not the Levines were acting in good faith.
Though the Defendants were found to have breached some of their contractual, statutory and equitable duties to Richmond, those breaches were not found to have caused any loss to Richmond. The Court stated that there was "simply no basis for inferring from the fact that the amount of business declined that the decline was caused by the Defendants' breaches". Material to the Court's decision was the number of additional factors which had contributed to the decline of Richmond's business. Richmond's claim was therefore dismissed.
The facts of this case highlight the need for careful drafting of confidentiality clauses and both the need to stipulate in such clauses the circumstances in which disclosure of confidential information can be freely made and the circumstances in which prior approval should be sought. The decision of the High Court is also a salutary reminder that the test that shall be applied by the Courts in determining whether directors are in breach of their duty to avoid conflicts is an objective one.
