Dallas Willard's 'Renovation of the Heart' has become established
as a classic guide to the spiritual life. In this abridged version,
Don Simpson makes its riches more easily available for devotional
use. The authors believe that we fail in the spiritual life mainly
through neglect of the roles played by the various elements of our
personality. They reflect on each of these elements - heart, mind,
body, social life and soul - and invite us to understand its role,
train it in new patterns, and expose it to God's transforming
power. This holistic approach will, they suggest, produce new ways
of responding to life, and will result in profoundly changed
character. This accessible distillation of an award-winning work
can be read as an ordinary book, or used for personal study and
prayer or on retreat. Suggestions for meditation and response
appear at the end of each chapter.
Eddie Murphy plays fast-talking Detroit cop Axel Foley, whose
regular assignments include tracking down cigarette thieves. When a
friend is killed, he begins an unofficial investigation which leads
him to Beverly Hills, where he runs into trouble with the
straight-laced police force who disapprove of his anarchic methods.
However, with the help of fellow cops Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and
Taggart (John Ashton), he tracks down the killers.
We all have dreams of what we want to do and who we want to
become. Many of us eventually decide it is too late; we have missed
our chances. But is it ever really too late to try?
Don Simpson does not think so. In his memoir, Too Old for Motor
Racing, he tells the story of how he became a race car driver at
the age of sixty-two. Simpson is an ordinary man from a regular
family; he spent his early years living on a council estate in
Liverpool, UK. He attended the school at the end of his street,
leaving as soon as he could. As a young man with a young family, he
could not indulge in his passion for motor racing except as a
spectator; racing was simply too expensive and risky for someone
with a family to take care of. Later in life, however, Simpson
discovered limits are almost always imagined, not real. At the age
of sixty-two, he began to race.
Although your passion may be for something other than motor
racing, this memoir seeks to inspire you to go after your dreams,
because it is never too late to try.
The Innovation Expedition describes Renaissance Leaders as high
integrity individuals with sensitive self-awareness and a passion
both for driving high performance in their organizations and for
helping to make their communities and the world a better place.
These leaders have a sense of history and an unusual capacity for
viewing the world holistically, for practicing systems thinking,
for injecting a global and a future's perspective into present
challenges, for honouring diversity, and for drawing on ideas and
best practices from diverse disciplines and economic sectors. They
also demonstrate an ability to take the input from these various
disciplines, synthesize it and integrate it for application to a
specific complex task. Finally, they have mastered the art of
demonstrating grace under pressure, and of inspiring others to have
the courage to collaborate and innovate in order to dramatically
improve organizational performance.

One of the definitive films of the 1980s, 'Top Gun' is a
high-octane, high-concept mixture of slick images, hard action and
non-stop music. Tom Cruise plays Maverick, a young fighter pilot
enrolled at Naval college, training with the most gifted flyers of
his generation, and competing for the prestigious Top Gun award.
Maverick soon establishes himself as one of the best in his class,
but his insistence on doing things his own way soon brings him into
conflict with his superiors and his main student rival: the Iceman
(Val Kilmer). Celebrated for its vividly realised flight sequences,
its keen sense of style, and featuring the Oscar-winning song 'Take
My Breath Away', 'Top Gun' was one of the most popular films of its
day.
