Speedy performance for a budget card. Inexpensive.
Gaming potential limited to lower resolutions.
Bottom Line
When loaded with fast GDDR5 memory, the single-slot ATI Radeon HD 5570 becomes an impressive bargain. Though its gaming performance isn't groundbreaking, it's sufficient enough to satisfy more-than-casual players at lower resolutions.
The conventional wisdom about sub-$100 video cards is that they'll do in a pinch, as long as you don't plan on gaming much with them. But with its ATI Radeon HD 5570, which was released earlier this year, AMD tried to prove that wrong for the $79 price range—and came close to succeeding. You needed to make certain compromises—the usual, namely resolution and detail—but the card could net you decent-enough performance at lower and middle resolutions to basically meet sufficiently modest expectations.
Similar Products
AMD is betting that even more is possible. It's provisioned a new version of the 5570 that keeps the rest of the card's specs the same, but sports 1GB of GDDR5 RAM instead of the original DDR3—all for about the same price. (For an overview of what GDDR5 is and how it works, check out our article GDDR5 Memory—Under the Hood.) This card might not be eye-poppingly powerful, but it can handle DirectX 11 (which no similarly priced Nvidia card can currently do) and AMD's multimonitor Eyefinity technology for up to three displays—both nice features.
We wanted to see what sort of a performance this difference this made, and whether gaming with the "new and improved" GDDR5 would be even better than before, or the memory change really was just hype.

Hacking Hollywood: Three Classic Movies That Put Cyber Security in the Spotlight
Earlier this month the world celebrated Safer Internet Day, a worthy initiative that aims to improve all aspects of web security across the online world. In the UK alone, hundreds of organisations did their bit to promote the safe and responsible use of digital technology. We're fully behind the cause, of course, and it also brought the topic of discussion around to the history of web security and how exactly we got to be at the point we're at today.
Now that nearly every household has access to either a laptop, smartphone or tablet (or even more likely, a combination of those), it's easy to forget that our perception of online security is the most sophisticated it has ever been. Thanks to the efforts of many modern online security providers, tech users now tend to get a nice, user-friendly explanation of their program that translates complex industry jargon into plain English (or their own native language).
Well, things weren't always so simple. Before dedicated cyber security programs became the norm, our concept of computer hacking, viruses and malicious threats largely came from movies and TV shows. And while the entertainment value of these films was far greater than the practical tips they offered, it's fair to say that certain movies actually helped to shape the global perception of digital security as we knew it, at least to an extent. So – we thought – what better way to honour the history of web security than to pull together a list of our top three classic movie plots that revolve around the fascinating world of hacking. Enjoy!
One of the earliest hacker incarnations to hit the silver screen was undoubtedly 1983's WarGames, directed by John Badham and starring a young Matthew Broderick as David Lightman. In fact, Lightman is more or less a carbon copy of Ferris Bueller – but with major computer nerd tendencies thrown in for good measure. Forget the topical themes based on the Cold War or World War III. For a whole generation of school kids this movie introduced the idea that they could actually hack into their school's filing system and change their grades electronically.
Looking back, Lightman's Seattle high school (and the US Government for that matter) could've probably done with a much more sophisticated web security application system to protect their confidential information and online services against a security threat posed by a teenage boy – and more serious threats as well. In 2017, more people are familiar with DDoS attacks than ever before, thanks to recent attacks, but even a primitive version of a web application firewall would have certainly helped the school in question stop protagonist Lightman from from exploiting the vulnerabilities in their filing applications code. But of course, back then these issues were much simpler. Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing?
The Matrix
Moving into the next decade, it's hard to look past 1999′s The Matrix as the one Hollywood blockbuster that brought computer hacking to the millennial generation. The film made $463.5 million worldwide. The combination of hacker-centric storyline and groundbreaking visual effects (for the time) made this a movie experience that was impossible to ignore. It's also more than likely that the average person's perception of modern computer coding is not too dissimilar from the experience of watching the crew on the Nebuchadnezzar hack in and out of The Matrix. You know, frantic typing at a keyboard mixed with the unintelligible flashing of colourful figures and symbols – sound familiar? As for the glitches in the Matrix itself – deja vu, if you recall – then perhaps one of the vast swathse of programs now available to spot software bugs would've helped the machine overlords out a little bit. You'd have thought they'd got this one sussed by the year 2500. Apparently not…
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
More recently, the world went crazy for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo which is well worth acquainting yourself with. The film garnered many accolades, including an Academy Award for Editing and another six nominations. Okay, so even though it was adapted from a novel, we still feel that the film enjoyed such widespread success that it still counts. David Fincher's film really helps to push the idea of major hacking networks and the impact they can have in the online world – very similar to Anonymous when you think about it. The central character's computer hacking skills also enable her to earn a living and conceal her real identity, which are important details that may be overlooked given the potency of the story and the multitude of themes at play.
So there we have it, three top class movies that have gradually brought the ideas of hacking and web security to the masses over the past three decades. Each film features a progressively more sophisticated view on cyber security, which really does beg the question: what could be next?

Dedeaux on recruiting lists
Picayune junior running back Preston Dedeaux could enter next season as the Coast's top college recruit.
Dedeaux opened the 2012 season with a 300 yard rushing effort against Biloxi in the Shrimp Bowl.
A shoulder injury midway through the season likely kept Dedeaux from a 2,000 yard rushing season. Still, he managed to rush for over 1,600 yards and made the Sun Herald's All-South Mississippi football team.
The Big 3 schools-- Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Southern Miss-- have all expressed interest in the 5-foot-11, 200-pound Dedeaux.

I've been busy with my book today (Christmas bestseller, you heard it here first), but guest blogger Rob Beezley sent me his ratings over. So in a (probably refreshing) break from my thoughts, it's over to Rob.
Paul Farman 8/10
Farms did ok today, not a lot could have been done for their goals especially the first which he saved but could do nothing with the rebound and surely he gets some form of assist for rheady's late equaliser! Did make quite a few crucial saves however!
Bradley Wood 7/10
Brad didn't do much wrong either, got through a few times and great going forward however defensively we looked shaky! However for his attacking and also for his never say die attitude especially with 50/50's makes him irreplacable
Luke Waterfall 6/10
Luke is a rock most of the time but even he will admit he didnt have the best of games today, At fault albeit not directly for one if not two of their goals! Only reason this isn't a lower rating is that he's a rock when it comes to long balls, he'd header a brick if you sent it to him
Sean Raggett 8/10
Most definitely the best defender we have on our books.. Whatever we paid Dover was a steal for this guy because he WILL play higher.. wins everything both on the ground and in the air and attacking he's brilliant hence him being knocked out in the 80th minute! He will go either in Jan or end of season
Sam Habergham 5/10
Worst game he's had for us so far, Yes he got forward a bit but nowhere near as much as Brad, He looked shaky, seemed to lack confidence and didn't close down well enough for the 3rd "Shots" goal
Harry Anderson 7/10
Set up Arnold for his first goal and was an absolute livewire attacking their left back before going off injured just after half time due to Aldershot booting home! Hopefully be ok for Forest Green next Saturday!
Alex Woodyard 5/10
Relatively quiet game for Alex whom we've grown to expect a lot from! He's always one of the first names on the teamsheet but today he was almost vacant, Didn't really get a foothold in the game!
Alan Power 9/10
Ok so granted I'm slightly including last week as well but 2 weeks in a row now Power has been an absolute rock in midfield, He's doing the work Woodyard would normally do.. he was everywhere today literally! Since being included due to Beevs injury, Power hasn't looked out of place and is really taking his chance!
Nathan Arnold 9/10
Can't really give 10's but I was so close to here with Arnold! He was immense, Got his 2 goals and their left back was terrorised with Nathan jinking in then out! Got ill at half time, tried to carry on but went off on the hour mark and it really changed how we played, We're not as direct without Nath or Harry!
Matt Rhead 8/10
Ref's seem to give Rheady nothing, not a sniff of a free kick and today he was all over the pitch again winning headers and occupying 2 defenders whilst he did it! With another striker better than Theo (yep I went there) he'd be perfect to flick on the loose balls for that forward! Obviously his winner had me forgetting life for a moment and celebrating almost in tears!
Theo Robinson 5/10
Ok so Theo got a goal disallowed but I can't forget the miss before half time, 3-1 would have been game over and he misses too many guilt edged chances, He's fast becoming the new Tom Champion however he chases down for the cause and as I pointed out today he'd make a great poacher against an awful keeper but for me Theo needs dropping, Let's give Marriott a try!
The Subs
Hawkridge 6/10- Didn't do any wrong but didn't stand out either altough him and Muldoon did seem deeper than Harry and Nath, got crosses in though
Muldoon 6/10- Pretty much the same as Hawks however he was better going forward
Whitehouse N/A- Other than chasing for the cause he din't get a chance to shine so unfair for me to judge him based on ten mins he got at the end
I would just like to mention the 617 boys as well. Those lads were incredible with me yesterday and I had a cracking day standing with them 🙂

Yes, we perfectly understand the rules for distilling London Dry Gin. But we give them a twist.
'Strange Donkey' is an unconventional but beautiful blend of citrus from all continents and the local botanicals from our own backyard, here in the outskirts of Antwerp. A refined gin that bursts with taste and tingles all your senses, even the sixth.
To create our precious gin we skilfully unite 23 ingredients, 17 of which are grown in the fruitful pasture of Vremde, a drowsy town near Antwerp (by all odds the greatest city of Belgium). A long, long time ago the villagers decided to build a church. For some reason, they left it up to a donkey to 'choose' a suitable site. Wherever it would stop to rest, they would build. As these head-strong animals often do, the donkey resolutely followed its own path and wandered off to a rather strange location. In local dialect "Vremde" means "strange". With this characteristic yet delicate gin we pay tribute to Vremde, where all our ideas take root.
Our inspiration awakens when everyone else is sound asleep. It is true: we prefer the lab over our bed. Speaking about passion…
But that's just the start. You know those summer festival posters stacked with names of various artists "and many more"? Well, our ingredients list is quite similar. Strange Donkey is endowed with a delicate mix of:
Juniper berry to spice things up. Coriander for some extra pep. Lemon verbena, which is known for reducing stress. Garden angelica adds flavour and holds medicinal power (beats any cold!). Prick-madam brings a touch of sour to the party. Olive herb for that summery Mediterranean aroma. Walnut, putting the 'nut' in nutrient. Apple elderflower, picked for its honey scented aroma and Seven Succulent Secret Sensations, straight from the donkey's garden…
Are you sure you want to share this little gem? Why don't you keep it all to yourself? Or are your friends really that special…? Well, in that case: Serve with Goldberg Tonic, a slice of citrus, a slice of grapefruit and – if you like doing things properly – add some pink pepper berries. Or serve with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic (the one with the blue label), 1 cardamom pod, 1 slice of pink grapefruit and 3 pink pepper berries.
Last winter, instead of cuddling up in its comfy stable, The Donkey launched a new, exceptional, Japanese influenced heart-warming blend.
Based on the 2015 silver medal awarded Strange Donkey this limited edition Winter Gin even got more pretentious and came back with 2017 golden medal at the International Wine & Spirit Competition in London.

Dermapen® is safer and more effective in piercing the skin than traditional skin micro-needling rollers due to its unique vertical micro-needling technology. Dermapen's multi-speed and adjustable needle depths allow the needles to pierce the skin's layers at 90 degrees and increases the effectiveness of needling by generating a precise, comfortable and relatively short needling session while providing less pain and downtime for the client.
Dermapen can effectively maneuver in hard-to-reach places (e.g. around the eyes, nose, and lips). Because of the vertical delivery, the needles can easily penetrate scar tissue and promotes scar-less healing similar to fractional laser treatments, IPL, laser resurfacing, and chemical peels, without the side effects and downtime. The mechanism of injury is a natural process, which makes Dermapen a holistic approach to skin therapy.
Four major phases of physiological wound response help in stimulating new healthy tissue growth. First, an inflammatory response (1-3 days), to the initial injury promotes the chemotaxis response and proliferation of fibroblasts. The body's platelets also respond to initiate a wound matrix. This response is the early phase of cell migration to remove debris and bacteria and stimulate the next proliferative phase. During the second phase (3-5 days), the new fibroblasts, monocytes, keratinocytes of the first phase continue to proliferate and multiply. New collagen will be laid down and deposited with new tissue formation. Next a fibrotic response (5-20 days), of growth factors are released and fibroblasts release collagen. Finally, the maturation stage of new healthy skin takes place from day 28 to two years after needling. Collagens mature and stiffen and the matrix of new tissue shows 80% to full tensile strength.
Skin tightening, natural collagen induction, lifting & rejuvenation
Heals acne scars & wound healing
Improves wrinkles and fine lines
Open pore minimisation
Improves stretch marks
Improves alopecia
Aids penetration of solutions

Project Description
Company Overview
The company is a multinational telecommunications corporation with over 200 million customers worldwide. It's also a Salesforce Sales Cloud customer. The company's Salesforce org combines standard and custom elements, including standard Salesforce objects and page layouts, as well as bespoke configuration and Visualforce development. Sales and marketing are the primary users of the Salesforce platform, and their processes cover lead conversion, opportunity management and forecasting. They came to Provar to improve their Sales Cloud testing process.
The Challenge
With this company's complex functional flows, manual Sales Cloud testing was a large overhead. Their 150 end-to-end test cases took 2 dedicated testers 2 weeks to complete each iteration.
The team wanted to reduce their manual Sales Cloud testing effort and better support their agile developments by running the whole test pack automatically on a regular basis.
The tests also needed to execute easily across multiple environments in line with their delivery lifecycle.
The Solution
The company chose Provar to automate their Sales Cloud testing. Provar is an end-to-end test automation tool designed for Salesforce. Because Provar is tightly integrated with Salesforce, it provides a more efficient way to implement automation. Minor changes to an environment become easier to accommodate, taking away the pain of maintenance and the difficulty of scaling.
The company took on Provar's 15 day quick start consulting package to help them design and develop their test cases. In this time, their in-house test team also completed Provar's 3-day training course.
With Provar, the test cases they developed covered all major functionality across Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Campaigns, Chatter, Reports and Forecasting. They could validate their end-to-end workflow, as well as asserting calculated fields on the browser and checking validation rule error messages.
The Results
The company was able to deliver more than half of their regression scope with just 15 days of dedicated support through Provar's quick start consulting package. Over 60% of this scope was completed by the company's in-house testing team themselves, who had no previous experience of using Provar.
After this, the team was confident enough in the tool to deliver the remainder of the regression scope themselves with only light-touch support.
Ultimately the company was able to reduce their Sales Cloud testing time from 2 weeks to 5 days, a 50% reduction in regression testing time.
As the solution used many standard Salesforce page layouts, the company could easily map fields using Provar's knowledge of Salesforce metadata. This approach helped create highly maintainable test cases.
The company was also able to use Provar's environment management functionality to test easily across different environments. They were pleased that the same tests could be run in different environments without any changes needed to the tests.
Overall, the company was delighted with their adoption of Provar because of the significant reduction in Sales Cloud testing time and effort.
Technical Solution
The company noted a number of specific areas in Sales Cloud testing that Provar excelled in where their previous tool, Selenium, had struggled.

Back to 1987
for stocks?
Our Trading Deck has been home to a spirited debate over whether we're in for a crash.

• The warning signs of a 1987-style crash

How to Build a Ply Sofa
Fashion affordable planks of plywood into a plywood sofa. Not only is plywood inexpensive, it allows you to experiment with modern looks you cannot achieve with any other material. Look for plans online or design and execute a design yourself. Work within your skill-set to ensure the project turns out as expected. Once finished, the sofa can be dressed with pillows or left bare depending on the look you want and the level of comfort.
Wood Options
Plywood is a basic staple you can find at any hardware store. Look for smooth variations with knots and wave-like patterns throughout. Or, for a rustic look choose a chipboard type of plywood. The chipboard tends to be rough and may require further finishing, while the plain plywood is smoother and will do well for a large surface area used for sitting. Build the entire sofa from plywood, or use plywood for the base and combine other materials for the legs and armrests.
Plywood sofas can be designed to look ultra modern if you showcase sleek, simplistic lines. Or, take the design in a near opposite direction and build a rustic plywood sofa with a basic rectangular box shape. Incorporate reclaimed wood for the armrests and legs to further the rustic appeal. Add a few accents of plywood elsewhere in the room to tie the whole theme together. A bookshelf, side table or ottoman are all ideal ways to incorporate another plywood piece into the room without overwhelming the space with raw wood.
Leave the plywood as-is or finish it to suit the decor of the room. For one look, coat the entire piece with a coat of polyurethane. The resulting look will be shiny and clean and won't tear at your clothing. Or, consider painting the whole sofa or a portion of it in a bright color like cherry red. If you have used different or reclaimed materials for the legs or armrests, paint them a different color but leave the body of the sofa the raw plywood color.
If comfort is required, build a seat with thick foam and cover it in a fabric that appeals to the decor of the room. Do the same for the backrest. Choose a fabric in a bold solid color or stripe and layer a collection of pillows with different modern prints. Botanical prints and retro geometrics will work well with this style of furniture. Add oversized pillows to each end of the sofa to lean against the arm rests and provide additional comfort.

RC Bhargava: …I have any say in the matter. We will implement these slabs and I think these slabs have been well thought out and they have been done so that there is minimal disturbance to existing rates of taxation. That's pretty good exercise which they have done.
And I think, GST will change in business and the way we do our work and our suppliers and transport or anything over the next two-three years to a very large extent which will be to the benefit of industry and the country.

ET Now: The BS-IV compliance is going to come in by April 1st. There were certain quarters who apparently asked for a deferment because they were not prepared.
There was also confusion with regard to whether they are talking about manufacturing or registration of those cars and also there is also very stiff deadline for BS-VI compliance. How do you think the auto sector should move ahead to prepare for these updates?
RC Bhargava: See each company has to make its own plan. As far as BS-IV is concerned, we have not had any problem because we have been doing all vehicles BS-IV for many-many months now, actually more than that, we have been doing it for years now. So as far as BS-VI is concerned, we will follow government mandated deadlines and there will be no deviations from that either.
ET Now: The vehicle scrappage policy is coming up, it is an important policy especially for the auto sector. What is Maruti Suzuki's outlook on that? How would it help especially when it comes to government partnership with private enterprises?
RC Bhargava: I do not know what the scrappage policy is yet. We have no idea about it.
ET Now: 15-year-old cars would be removed because of the issues with regard to pollution?
RC Bhargava: Yes, but that is a general statement of object, how that policy will be implemented, who will be responsible for scrapping, who will be responsible for reprocessing, what will happen to the scrap, there are whole lot of questions to be answered and the enforcement and things. My view in all these matters has been that scrapping should not be done age wise. It should be done on the basis of the fitness or otherwise of the vehicle.
Unfortunately in India, our infrastructure for determining vehicle fitness is very weak and that is probably why the government is moving towards this age thing but it is not a very rational thing. It may be the best in the circumstances but it is not really what we should aim for in the long term.
ET Now: When it comes to Maruti Suzuki, the upcoming financial year how strong do you think your numbers are, what kind of sales volume target are you looking at, you have had just two very important launches also recently. How is this financial year looking for Maruti Suzuki?
RC Bhargava: We have already said that in FY17 we will have double digit growth. You have already seen the results of the past three quarters. So I think, most people have worked out what the whole year's results are likely to be.
I obviously cannot speak of results till we announce it after the board meeting and next year also looking at all that is happening in terms of GST and the economy and such things, I expect next year would also be a good year.

Sid was born Tuesday September 25th 1973 on Crown St in the city of Sydney, Australia to Ecuadorian immigrants Tito and Graciela Tapia.
From the moment he began learning to use a pen, his mother began teaching him how to take control of it by setting him down on a regular basis for cursive writing lessons which were taken out of her old spanish writing books.
In 1976 Sidney discovered the enjoyment of skateboarding by watching his older brother and long time mentor, Walker, surfer skate the footpaths opposite their home on Bourke St Surry Hills.
Between 1977 - 1982 he was also performing choreographed dance routines for local latin and multicultural festivals and events.
His brother Walker introduced and influenced him towards new sounds and cultures such as ska, punk, mod and rockabilly to name a few.
It was 1982 when Sidney first came across the fresh and emerging hip-hop culture and sound. He would compulsively record and study tv clips and videos of various crews. Especially any to do with "Rock Steady Crew" and "The New York City Breakers".
He began to emulate all that the hip-hop culture was pumping out and enthusiastically emerged his identity into it, including the art movement known as graffiti.
Between 1985 - 1990 he attended high school at St Mary's Cathedral Sydney, where in his first year he befriended three close, and at that time, highly influential friends, David, Paul and Wayne. They too shared the love of the hip-hop / graffiti culture.
These four school friends were also alias as Stations 5 / Sens 1, Da-one, Sie and Best.
They helped form crews such as M.A - Mix Artists & D.C - Def Crew.
In 1985 one of Sidney's earlier highlights was being able to show off his break dancing skills at one of Sydney's first local Def Jam recordings in the Martin Place amphitheater (a.k.a The Pit) with his fellow graff crew, D.C, in attendance.
In 1987 Sidney began to harness his skateboarding skills to a fuller degree than ever and in 1993 was approached by Jamie Bartie from Kewday Distribution and was sponsored by Etnies Shoes, Neighborhood Skateboards, Tracker Trucks and A1 Meats Wheels.
In 1995 Sidney was offered to ride for Grace Skateboards and receive his first pro model skateboard along side of his team mates Adrian Powell, Martin Baptist and owner, Andrew Currie.
That same year he was offered to ride for Vans yet turned it down to ride for the new and emerging company, Globe Footwear, after being enthusiastically persuaded by close friend and Globe team rider Phil Mackie.
The years to follow saw Sidney with a number of different opportunities and sponsors including, DC Shoes, Circa Footwear, Fallen Footwear, Adio Footwear, i-Path Footwear, Boost Mobile Phones, Lucky Skateboards, Time Skateboards, Elan Skateboards, Boom Skateboards, CLS Skateboards, Ecko Unlimited, Levi's, Alphanumeric Apparel, Surf Dive n Ski, Ess Skateshop, tv advertisements for Coca-Cola, K.F.C, Hewlett Packard Computers, '24 hours' a day in the life television program when Warrick (Thornton) met Sid, for Eat Carpet S.B.S and various other short films and documentaries. Both lifestyle and skateboarding.
In the midst of the millennium 1999 -2000 Sidney was altered by the encounter of what is now his greatest influence, inspiration and love; the life of Jesus Christ.
In 2003 Sidney also began to thrive in the realm of public speaking. Encouraging and inspiring lives, he went on to become one of the key leading regional and national youth communicators throughout Australia.
In 2009 he was married to his best friend, Anna-Mei Afoke.
2010 he founded the label Crown St.
Aside from painting walls around the world, 2016 & 2017 also saw Sid having two major exhibitions for Adidas that travelled to Tokyo Japan, Miami Florida, Sydney & Melbourne Australia.
Currently, Sid is working as a full time artist, an ambassador / influencer for international brands RVCA, Adidas, Sony, G-Shock, Copic Markers & MTN Colors, husband to Anna-Mei and father to his beloved daughters, Skylar-Lovelle & Sianna-Lovelle.

Toyota reveals the FT1 Concept
Published On Aug 20, 2014 03:06 PM By Rahul for Toyota Avanza
Toyota revealed a second interior styling and exterior colour for an upscale interpretation of its sensational FT-1 sports car concept. This has been developed by Calty Design Research in Newport Beach, California. The original FT-1 concept ignited sports car enthusiasts and the automotive world with its debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show.
Both share the deeply sculpted intakes and outlets that support its track-ready nature and the dramatic lines seemingly shaped by the wind. It's a look that gets the heart racing. This is the next sports car in the league after the Celica, Supra, MR2 and the most recently Scion FR-S.
The colour of the upscale leather changes between the first and second FT-1 vehicles, and the visual difference is prominent. The painted edges that are red in the first concept are now subtly blended brown in the second. The intention is to bring in a more sophisticated feel and authenticity through color choice, showcasing the versatility of the FT-1 sports car concept. Enthusiasts who desire a more pure high-performance experience might choose the black-red pairing, while others may desire the premium, athletic feel of the saddle leather.
Sellene Lee drew inspiration for the FT-1 interior from the modern, high-tech performance materials used. A movie poster drew her attention to the modern shift from past heroes' bright tights and colors to today's performance fabrics and function. To achieve the FT-1's advanced-looking, intricately detailed interior, Sellene Lee and the team compared leather thicknesses, grain sizes and textures to find the perfect combination.
Raised metal mesh provides ventilation for the seats while lending a more textural, bold effect that beautifully matches with the metal accents. A dimensional embossed pattern on the instrument panel leather brings in a 3-D, technical look.

Over the last 34 years, we have been helping HVACR, plumbing,electrical and building materials distributors with strategy creation and execution. We also wrote a National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW) best-seller titled "Strategic Planning for Distributors: Execution Isn't Everything – It's the Only Thing!"
Is the HVACR distribution channel an anomaly when it comes to flawed strategy execution? Consider the following statistics:
- Ninety percent of well formulated strategies fail due to poor execution according to the Harvard Business School Press.
- Seventy percent CEO failures come not as a result of poor execution, according to Fortune Magazine.
- Sixty-six percent of corporate strategy is never executed, according to Ernst & Young
These alarming statistics of business strategy and failure rates back up our real-world consulting experiences with HVACR, plumbing, electrical and building materials distributors.
Image: iStock/ThinkStock
Based upon our work with HVACR distributors the following are the Top 10 reasons why your current business strategy will fail or is failing:
Company leaders do it alone and do not select the right people to serve on their company's strategy team. Leaders who rigidly apply a top-down approach to business strategy will not achieve success. Leaders must assemble the right group of diverse individuals who will capture creative and innovative thinking.
Top-down leadership is the number one reason why strategic planning sessions fail. Top-down leaders are autocratic and rely on their own thinking rather than the thinking of others. They possess tunnel vision because they don't seek outside opinions and diversity. Autocratic leaders are not comfortable with collaborative decision making. Most top-down leaders believe strategic planning is a one-year operating plan treating the problems of the day, rather than a thoughtful three to five-year strategic analysis.
The right path to successful business strategy creation and execution is for the leader(s) to lead a strategy-creation and execution team process. The top leader becomes the strategy team's biggest cheerleader by actively participating on the strategy team and by enthusiastically communicating the company's vision, mission, goals and strategies through company meetings, informal talks and written communications.
Herb Kelleher, co-founder and former chairman and chief executive officer (CEO) of Southwest Airlines, actively participated, but did not lead Southwest's strategy team. When Kelleher believed that a strategic initiative was not in line with Southwest Airlines' vision and mission, he would often bring the team back to Southwest's vision, mission and strategic goals.
As the company's top leader, you don't need to become another Herb Kelleher. But you do need to ensure that everyone is plugged into your organization's strategy by doing the following:
- Communicating company vision, mission, goals and strategies to employees, strategic suppliers, customers and the community.
- Fostering teamwork and creating a work culture that values collaboration.
- Creating a cross-functional strategy team that is composed of marketing, sales, purchasing, branch operations, distribution, finance, human resources and IT talent.
Company's strategy does not ignite passion amongst all employees. There must be passion beyond a business strategy session to achieve strategy-execution success. Without a contagious passion amongst everyone in the organization regarding where the company is going and what critical part each of them play in it, the best business strategies will fail in execution.
The company's leader(s) must develop a compelling vision during their strategy session of where their HVACR channel organization is going five or more years into the future. At the heart of any company is a compelling vision continually articulated by the company leader(s). The vision should resonate with all members of the organization and help them feel proud, excited, inspired, motivated and part of something much bigger than themselves.
The best vision-driven HVACR distributor leaders continually instill a passion within every employee in achieving successful strategy execution.
Company's strategy team is not responsible for both strategy- creation and strategy-execution. When most HVACR distributors develop their business strategy, it is created by relatively few people. These strategy creators tend to be only the senior leaders of their organization. These senior leaders leave strategy execution to lower-level leaders and other team members. They typically review their organization's strategy execution process only periodically.
Best-practice HVACR distributors organize cross-functional strategy teams that take equal ownership for both strategy-creation and strategy-execution.
Company remains "internally focused" with their business strategy and does not gather "outside-in" critical market intelligence from their channel partners. Best-practice HVACR distributors balance "inside-out" thinking with "outside-in" thinking from channel partners to accurately measure employee perceptions versus strategic customers and suppliers perceptions of performance. "Outside-In" feedback is gathered through confidential, honest and candid feedback from both strategic customers and suppliers that produce innovative strategies that build and sustain distinct competitive advantages. This is always best accomplished from a third-party market research firm that can guarantee anonymity from research participants.
Company lacks the right strategy creation and strategy-execution structure and accountability. Many HVACR distributors, manufacturers and manufacturers' reps fail in their strategy-creation sessions because of a lack of structure and accountability. An effective strategy process contains a structure that encourages strategic thinking. It involves different analytical exercises through each cycle of the meeting. This stimulates participants to think strategically.
Typical Two-Day Strategy Session Day 1 Timeline
Strategy Session Overview
8 a.m. – 9 a.m. Outside-In Customer Market Research Review 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. Outside-In Manufacturer Market Research Review 11 a.m. – Noon Strategy Team SWOT Analysis Exercise 1 p.m. – 3 p.m. Critical Success Factors 3 p.m. – 5 p.m.
Day 2
Timeline 3-Year Strategic Goals (2017–2019) Exercise 8 a.m. – 11 a.m. GAP Analysis & Top Strategic Initiatives Exercise 11 a.m. – Noon Strategy Execution Team Deployment 1 p.m. – 4 p.m. Strategy Team Charge 1 p.m. – 4 p.m.
Having a clear agenda with timelines is essential for a productive strategy session. A typical two-day strategy session agenda we employ with HVACR distributors is shown above.
Before ending the strategy session, the strategy team must make three decisions:
- How will the strategy session results be communicated to employees, strategic customers, strategic suppliers and other appropriate parties?
- How often will each strategy execution team meet to achieve its team mission, goals and action plans?
- Will each strategy team make formal progress update presentations at quarterly strategy team meetings?
Company attempts to execute too many strategies. When it comes to strategy execution, think in threes. We guide all our clients to reduce the top strategies they want to execute to no more than three. Thinking in threes forces our HVACR distributor clients to build focused, achievable strategies that can be successfully executed over the next three years. For each of these three top strategies, a strategy execution team is formed. Each strategy team is responsible for the following:
-Creating a team purpose and specific, measurable, stretch-achievable team goals that align with the company's three-year strategic goals.
- Developing and executing specific action plans to achieve the strategy team's goals.
Company does not continually measure strategy results and link them to a performance scorecard system with individual and team rewards for achieving your company's strategic plan. Most HVACR distributors do not continually measure their strategy execution results to a scorecard system with both individual and team rewards for achieving the company's strategic goals.
Building performance scorecards that support the strategy for your company will transform your strategy into positive, actionable results. Like an airplane's control panel or an automobile's dashboard, performance scorecards help HVACR distributors achieve their strategy by providing a comprehensive view of performance.
Balanced scorecards represent an approach to strategic management that first surfaced in the early 1990s. Robert Kaplan and David Norton authored three Harvard Business Review articles on the balanced scorecard. Based on their experiences, Kaplan and Norton developed a balanced scorecard around the idea that impressive financial returns are only one of several important factors in a business's success. They introduced four perspectives to include on the balanced scorecard: 1) financial measures 2) customer measures 3) internal business process measures, and 4) learning and growth measures.
Every HVACR distributor we have helped create and execute successful long-term business strategies uses the balanced scorecard to align their business activities to their vision, mission and strategic goals. Properly designed, a balanced scorecard provides an alignment framework for all employees. It holds each employee accountable for both individual and company goals.
Everyone in the organization understands what each person or group is working towards. The balanced scorecard requires a rigorous process and commitment, but it is a key element in effectively translating a company's strategy into actionable results.
Financial compensation is a powerful performance lever. Linking the company's balanced scorecard to an incentive compensation plan creates the push for achieving a successfully executed business strategy.
Company does not continually hold quarterly strategy execution team progress update meetings. Every HVACR distributor we have helped create a long-term business strategy has achieved remarkable strategy execution success when they hold quarterly strategy execution team progress update meetings. Every three months, year after year…
Conducting quarterly strategy team meetings is the key leadership tool to ensure steady, consistent execution progress. The five purposes of quarterly strategy execution team meetings are as follows:
1.Clearly understand the status of each strategy execution team's progress.
2. Keep each team's focus on strategic, rather than urgent, tactical issues.
3. Leverage all appropriate company resources while maintaining accountability for performance.
4. Facilitate communication and support throughout the strategy team.
5. Provide quarterly strategy team updates to all company personnel
Company does not hold quarterly employee meetings to update everyone in the organization regarding strategy execution progress. Communicating your strategy-creation and execution results throughout the organization to gain understanding and buy-in is essential to effective strategy execution. All employees should be given quarterly updates on strategy execution team progress. Other key stakeholders, i.e., strategic customers and suppliers, should be given semiannual updates of your company's strategy execution progress.
Company does not use an experienced HVACR channel outside facilitator to objectively manage the strategy-creation and strategy-execution process. Most HVACR distributors choose to facilitate their own strategy sessions. This is a mistake. Strategic planning sessions run by team members often become expanded staff meetings, rehashing old positions, inhibiting innovative strategic thinking and leaning toward the strongest members' views.
Resistance to employing an experienced HVACR channel outside facilitator whose job is to objectively manage the strategic information exchange between managers, employees, strategic suppliers and customers will impair your company's strategy creation and execution.
Outside HVACR channel knowledge is important both for collecting and analyzing market research and for understanding the inner workings of an HVACR distributor.
A skilled HVACR channel outside facilitator will do the following:
- Ensure that cross-functional strategy team members see themselves as equal stakeholder voices.
- Ensure that all team member ideas are valid.
- Guarantee that everyone provides candid and honest feedback.
- Make sure that everyone actively listens to each other.
- Make certain that the strategy team seeks common ground and actions based upon consensus and not influenced by the most powerful or strongest team member.
- Serve as a coach and mentor to the strategy team throughout the strategy execution process.

One app I often use before deciding to take flight is UAV Forecast.
This is a very handy app that can help you decide to fly your drone or not.
The app is pretty basic, and shows all you need to know in 1 screen.
Adjustments can be made to suit your needs for flying, but the default settings are pretty good for most pilots.
Of course peeking outside gives the best view on the weather, peeking outside does not tell you anything about satellite visibility and KP index.
Especially KP index is very important when you are flying with GPS on.
The higher the KP index, the more interference you'll have on GPS, this could cause all sorts of issues like toilet bowling and even worse.. flyaways.
Here are some screenshots from an Android device
You can download this great app for Android and IOS
This app is currently unavailable for Windows Phone users, but they can add a shortcut to their home screen and use the website instead.

The headache and breathing problems caused by the chlorine/chloramines in my local swimming pool have been joined by another, potentially more serious symptom. Now my bath is clogged.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: No one is interested in my thought of the day.
I had my hair cut today by a man aged 72 who said he had been cutting hair for 54 years. There are 100,000 follicles on the head – let's say he cuts 1/2 inch off on average, 10 times a day, 220 days a year. If you laid the cut hair end-to-end, that would make approx. 90,000 miles of hair – or enough to wrap around the equator 3.6 times. (Note to self: get a life)
I wish my smoke alarm would learn to recognize my cooking skills.

Catching the Dream
LaVonne Chenault-Goslin, a member of the Prairie Band of Potawatomi Indians from Kansas, has been working towards a doctorate degree in Curriculum and Instruction at the University of Minnesota at Duluth for the past seven years. She is also raising two teenagers, working as a college professor at her local tribal college, running the Red Cliff Head Start program, and managing a family life. Her Indian name is Kaw-e-quah, which aptly means, "fish that wiggles upstream." Previously only able to enroll in courses part-time, her scholarship from Catching the Dream has enabled her to attend classes full-time—bringing her goal of educating teachers on how to best provide for and impact Indian students ever-closer.
Catching the Dream (CTD) was founded in 1986 by Dean Chavers and American Indian leaders Wendell Chino, Roger Jourdain, Newton Lamar, and Joe Delacruz to provide outstanding students like LaVonne with scholarships and opportunities for success they might not otherwise receive. Since their founding, CTD has made scholarship awards to 1,123 students and has produced 835 graduates. Boasting a 78.6% completion rate among their students, they provide Native students with exemplary academic skills and ambition with the chance to attend college and give back to their communities.
A Dire Situation
A staggering 27 % of all Native Americans [1] live in poverty while their communities suffer from soaring unemployment rates, rampant crime, substance abuse problems, and a nearly broken education system. As of the 2009-2010 school year, only about 58% of Native American students graduated from high school.[2] In order to improve the quality of life in Indian communities, Chavers and his fellow founders turned to higher education: "We decided, if we're going to rebuild Indian country and try to heal it, we've got to have some educated leadership." CTD has made it their mission to develop leaders whose education properly equips them to improve Indian country's local economies, governments, education programs, health clinics, and social systems.
The Students
CTD rewards students who have demonstrated a strong interest in giving back to their Native communities through social service, volunteering and academics. They offer supplementary scholarship funding and require that students apply to at least 40 other scholarships. They also fund SAT and ACT tests and offer advice to students on finding, applying for, and winning other scholarships. In this manner, CTD encourages students to be self-sustaining and develop skills in self-promotion, research, and resourcefulness. In order to maintain their scholarships with CTD, students must maintain a 3.0 grade point average and submit each semester's transcripts and class schedule.
This past year, their partnership with the Argosy Foundation has enabled them to fund 24 students, bringing their total number of scholarships awarded to 186 with 64 graduates. Currently, about 85% of CTD's graduates return to their local communities to work as nurses, engineers, accountants, business managers, entrepreneurs, pharmacists, and scientists. Their graduates have a variety of degrees including 116 with business degrees, 28 engineers, 123 teachers, 115 scientists, 38 doctors, and 110 scientists. Chavers feels that having American Indians in these positions within the communities in which they grew up is instrumental to alleviating the challenges that threaten to stifle Indian country. CTD has seen the majority of their students graduate, spend time gaining experience in the field, and then return to their communities. Since they have grown up within these communities, they are well equipped to maneuver the unique challenges of American Indian society and incorporate culturally appropriate practices into their positions.
Creating Leaders
Two years into their operations, CTD encountered a serious problem: they were unable to find enough qualified students to apply for their scholarships. Chavers recalls, "the board members realized that in order to reach the goals CTD wanted to accomplish, we had to do something to improve the schools." In order to raise education standards as well as recognize successful programs, CTD began distributing Exemplary Program in Indian Education (EPIE) awards. Currently boasting 40 EPIEs, CTD recently added the Menominee Indian School District (MISD) in Wisconsin to the list of exceptional schools. Wendall Waukau, the district's Superintendent, has spent the past eight years working to strengthen the schools' academics as well as cultivating cultural appreciation and language skills, promoting physical health and activity, and offering on-site health care. As a result, MISD has seen dramatic gains in their test scores, student learning, graduation rates, student attendance and retention, and overall student behavior. They have received numerous awards from the state of Wisconsin and Waukau has been recognized by the White House as a "Champion of Change" [3]. CTD hopes to see many more American Indian schools follow in MISD and the other EPIEs' footsteps by strengthening their curriculum and cultural environment to better serve the community and create the leaders it needs.
A Bright Future
Through the Argosy Foundation's grant, CTD has been able to fund students concentrating specifically in the fields of math, engineering, science, business, education, and computers. Julian Benavides, from Isleta Pueblo, completed his undergrad college career with a GPA of 4.0, graduated fourth out of 435 students from his high school, and scored in the 96th percentile in his ACTs. When he graduates from the University of New Mexico Medical School, he will be the only known graduate with a medical degree from his pueblo. The partnership between Argosy and Catching the Dream has enabled students like Julian to attend college, get their degrees, and become the leaders that Dean Chavers and CTD envision for the future of the Native American community.

Teams of two traffic policemen were deployed instead of four to control the traffic on Wednesday. The number of civil defence volunteers too was lower as many did not turn up due to Mahavir Jayanti.
Moreover, cops posted at major intersections were instructed to focus more on managing traffic than on prosecutions during the peak hours.
Traffic police officers said that the volume of traffic in south Delhi was high in the morning as commuters who usually drive down to office had booked cabs instead of using buses.
Traffic police data at the Dhaula Kuan crossing shows that 1.4 lakh vehicles usually pass through it during the day. However the numbers were halved on Wednesday.
Commuters said that the odd even rule, coupled with the heavy prosecutions, reduced travel time to about 7 minutes at this intersection during the peak hours.
"We have requested the civic bodies to install road signages directing buses and other vehicles to follow lanes marked for them so that haphazard movement can be checked," said a senior traffic police officer.
Government officials, meanwhile, expect the volume of cars to increase on Thursday during peak hours. Police said, if required, they would deploy additional personnel from the reserve units to deal with the extra vehicles.

Exploring France was absolutely incredible, but I had really, REALLY been looking forward to getting to the UK. As a huge Brit Lit lover and general Anglophile, I could not wait to do some travelling in England - to drink many cups of tea, to hear that delightful accent, to shop at my favorite British stores, to visit places that I've loved reading about.
We were crossing the channel by ferry, from Le Havre to Portsmouth. The ferry company was called LD Lines, and our ferry was called the Norman Voyager, which sounds somewhat more epic than the reality. It wasn't exactly the Disney Cruise Line, but it was cheaper than a flight would have been and perfectly comfortable. To complete our voyage from one country to another, we bought a pasty from the snack bar and ate the last of our French pastries for dinner. Of course I did a vlog...
The ferry arrived in Portsmouth quite late, so all we did was head to the hotel and fall into the bed. But the next morning we were up early. I was once again on British soil and I could not wait to get out and explore!
I don't know if it's just me, but somehow this path looks British. Like maybe Jane Austen walked down it.
And the SIGNS were delightfully British too! (This is what watching British television and reading British books will do to you. You will become irrationally excited by street signs.)
I imagined Fanny Price (from Mansfield Park) who lived in Portsmouth walking along by the sea with Mr. Crawford as we did.
Nelson went under these arches...and possibly Fanny Price walked under these arches!!! Or...at least...she WOULD have walked under those arches if she had been a real person instead of a character in a book... ;)
We walked by Portsmouth Cathedral and found crocuses sprouting up everywhere...
...such pretty patches of color!
I loved spotting the first flowers in the gardens of the pretty houses we passed! There may have been a few first sights of spring, but the weather was still decidedly wintery. We were not sorry to find our breakfast place. I had done my research ahead of time and discovered a restaurant that looked like the library out of Downton Abbey...
It's called The Chambers and it was JUST as charming and cozy as we had hoped.
The chandeliers...the leather...the bookshelves...the comfy chairs...DO YOU NOT FEEL LIKE YOU'RE AT DOWNTON ABBEY?
One imagines that clock and that candelabra are a priceless heirlooms, probably gifts from the king to the third Earl of Somethingrather back in 1589...
And what made this place truly perfect was that, incredibly, it wasn't even expensive. I think we paid 5 pounds each for a Full English breakfast...
...complete with a pot of tea OF COURSE!
Baked Beans, Bacon, Sausage, Tomato, Mushroom, Egg, Hash Browns, and there was also white toast. Only in England would I eat baked beans for breakfast and like it. ;)
I could not have imagined a more idyllic first breakfast in Britain. We even had the restaurant to ourselves for awhile; by the time we left it was getting busy!
More Portsmouth adventures to come! :)

Black Cloud Origins
Black Cloud began at Aurora Coffee in the Virginia Highland neighborhood of Atlanta in the winter of 2012, with a black Leuchtterm 1917 notebook, a black Pilot Precise V5 Rolling Ball Extra Fine pen and a cup of black drip coffee. I was not wearing black eyeliner and a black bowler hat, but only because the goth kids in Atlanta are hardcore, and I didn't want them to pick on me.
At the time, I didn't know I was beginning the process of creating the lyrics for an album. I was just writing, and quickly. That first day, I had the framework for three songs. I wrote seven more over the next few months.
I worked mostly in Atlanta, where I am based, but I also wrote and edited my work as I traveled in Shanghai, Germany, Iceland and San Francisco. At first, I worked alone. I didn't share what I was doing. About halfway through the process, that changed, when I realized I had started writing with Daemon's sounds in my head.
Daemon Hatfield and I have been friends for years, and although we have worked on music together in the past, we had never truly collaborated on an original project. I enjoy (and even briefly helped him perform live) the music of Monster-0, and his dubstep and DJ work. But I most identify with the music he creates as "Daemon" – Background Processes and Colorbeam rank among my favorite electronic albums. I was toiling at the slab, building the monster, sewing it together. But only Daemon could bring it to life.
In March 2013 I flew to San Francisco for the Game Developers Conference, and Daemon and I met for drinks at The House of Shields, a quiet, dark bar south of Market Street. I shared my vision for the project (which had no name at that time), and asked if he was interested in collaborating on creating it – my words, his music. To me, that's when Black Cloud became real.
Over the spring and summer, Daemon started creating the music for the lyrics I had completed so far. In the meantime, I worked to finish the rest. We both knew fairly quickly that it was working. Songs started to fly back and forth between San Francisco and Atlanta. By September, Daemon had completed five tracks, including two electronic compositions. They told the story in ways I never imagined.
The result is Black Cloud Volume 1, a five-track Daemon Hatfield EP being released on 11.12.13. It's the first in a series of three EPs that will eventually be collected in a full-length LP with bonus material.
Although its more sterile sister shop survives in Atlanta's Little Five Points, the Virginia Highland location of Aurora Coffee is no longer in business, which is sad. It was one of my favorite places in the area. It felt like a man with a briefcase had been scheduled to pop by and tell the owners that he was sorry, but the 1990s were over, and they would need to pack up and leave. But a clerical error had somehow prevented him from going, so everyone just carried on, oblivious to the temporal anomaly they shared.
The world is dotted with places like Aurora Coffee, shelters from the storm. There are, after all, things happening out there. And more seem to happen every day. They wrap recursively around one another, becoming something new. We are lines on a graph now, moving from the additive to the multiplicative to the exponential until we break the model. And the safe spaces, real and imagined, are becoming more important.
But the man with the briefcase always shows up eventually. And when he does, everything changes.

For GSS Ozone chapter 9. Excerpt: In the 30 years since the ozone hole was discovered, our understanding of the polar atmosphere has become much more complete. The worldwide response to the discovery was fast, but the recovery is slow. ...Although anthropogenic CFCs are emitted mostly in the Northern Hemisphere, they are well mixed throughout the troposphere over the course of a couple of years, and air that enters the stratosphere in the tropics carries with it tropospheric levels of CFCs. ...Although the Arctic and Antarctic are similar in some ways, ozone columns below 180 DU, routine in the Antarctic, have never been observed in the Arctic. Chlorine levels are similar in both hemispheres, but winter and spring temperatures in the Antarctic are much colder than in the Arctic. ...The Northern Hemisphere's large mountain ranges and its broad contrasts between land and sea temperatures result in a weaker polar vortex, warmer temperatures, and stronger Brewer–Dobson circulation. That stronger circulation leads to greater transport of ozone to the Arctic lower stratosphere and naturally higher ozone; year-to-year variability is also greater than in the Southern Hemisphere.... http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/magazine/physicstoday/article/67/7/10.1063/PT.3.2449.

We give thanks and praise to the almighty God for making the 5th Annual Missions Conference July 4-8 a success at the Kamuzu Academy, Mtunthama Kasungu under the theme, "Give us this day, our daily bread" taken from the fourth petition in the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:11). This has been one of the most productive and fruitful conferences. We give glory and honour to God for taking us to new heights and a step further in advancing the call to awaken the passion for missions not only in young people but even in pastors too.
PARTICIPANTS: This year's conference registered 150 residential participants with a few operating from their homes. Participants were a combination of youths, laymen (elders and deacons) and pastors from Pentecostal, Evangelical and Presbyterian Churches in Malawi. We were encouraged also to have a missionary from Papua New Guinea, Gabriel Pondrun, serving here in Malawi; Mr. Hussein Latif, a Malawian missionary serving among the Muslims in Mangochi. These two were a great encouragement to the participants.
- This year's conference registered a high number of pastors in comparison to the previous conferences. This is a great development because it is these pastors who will be instrumental in transforming their churches as regarding to missions work. After training these pastors it is evident that they have realized there is work to be done in regard to missions and have embraced the call to missions hence will be in the fore-front in their churches advancing this cause.
- This year's conference has made a great difference as the participants agreed with the organizers to set the course for missions in Malawi. This was supported with a special offering on each of the conference days. By the end of the conference a enough money was raised and some pledged by the conference participants to support work of missions in Malawi. Following this, two faithful men responded to the call into local missions in a Muslim-dominated area in Mangochi District where they will be working for a month – the month of August this year. We thank God for this amazing response.
- During the conference, a local mission's body was prayerfully chosen comprising of 10 people from among JTW Missionaries and others. The role of this Missions body will include identifying mission's fields, receiving, recruiting, sending and supporting missionaries into various mission fields both locally and internationally.
- It has been noted from people who have been attending these conferences in the past that there is a need to follow these annual conferences up with smaller seminars (mini-conferences) at regional level. This is a call that came in from the participants to JTW and has to be considered as it would greatly help participants to keep in touch and encourage each other.
- To keep the focus on missions and the servant self-watch in the ministry. It has been agreed that next year's seminars will be designed as special classes (running progressively throughout the conference). This will allow the participants to concentrate/focus on their area of calling and will equip them with necessary materials for their particular ministries.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND OPPORTUNITIES: Many participants hailed JTW for organizing these conferences and recommended the following issues:
- That we should be conducting follow-ups conferences with participants at regional level (at least once) before the next conference.
- That the missions' board should be maintained and that its functions should be open to all those willing to serve in missions. Any open opportunities should be communicated to them.
- One participant pledged to continue supporting the cause of local missions not only by praying but also by giving financially.
- Many participants have at least made a commitment to continue attending the coming conferences.
SUMMARY: It was a great JOY to see what God is doing in Malawi in the area of Missions work and to be a small part of it. We are so grateful and thankful to the Almighty God for connecting JTW Ministries with not only Malawian believers but with so many across the world with a common vision of serving the lost world for the sake of God's Kingdom. We hope to reach new heights and sail into deeper waters in this cause for Christ's sake.
Speaking at this conference was, Rev, Fletcher Matandika, Dr. David Reimer, Rev. Charles Morris, Rev. Stephen Roberts, Mr. Hussein Latif, Mr. Khembo Elliot, Mr. Confex Makhalira, and Mr. Joseph Matandika.
