Comments from Spiceworks
We are partnering with Shavlik to bring you Patch Management - stay tuned for more details:
Any chance for a future implimentation of patch management for windows/microsoft updates through SW to all discovered clients?
Any thoughts on this?
I am currently looking for a patch management solution and thought it would be neat to have that available within SW.
That would be great. I currently use GFI LanGuard... It works great but the Spiceworks interface is cleaner. If patch management is implemented in SW, any chance if being able to import/export machine names from a text or csv file?
That would be to awsome. To have the very skillfull programers at spiceworks develope a patch management solution that I could rest easy at night knowing that I can trust what the program is telling me.
PLEASE Everyone lets spicy this up a little...
I could see some use out of this. I like to test patches first before I let MS touch them automatically.
I hate raining on any Miscrosoft Day Parade (actually no I don't), but I can't trust MS to patch it's own systems. I've seen dozens to many of auto-patched systems via Windows Updates completely break themselves requiring a few hours of maintenance to repair the damage.
There is no virus worse then MS Updates.
Anyways, patch management would be nice, but I would say after the inclusion of this:
I agree, although I'd like just to be able to note when I have patched my solaris systems and to what level, using pca.
That's actually what I'm looking for -- to get away from my excel spreadsheet and be able to track this more intelligently!
I'd like to get something like this, I'd like a button I can click that tells all my servers to download and install all available patches but not reboot. I then want to have another button I can click at an appropriate time that will tell all my servers, a single server or a group of servers to reboot.
Just a thought but somehow integrating with Secunia PSI or CSI would provide this ability.
::bump:: patch management would be awesome.
Patch management is highly needed for both Microsoft and non-Microsoft products.
This would be awesome
Patch management is the next big thing needed in SW. Come on folks, spice it up!
Also agree that this feature integrated with SW will be very good.
I may be a little late to this discussion but I can assure you this is coming. Shavlik is working with Spiceworks to get our IT.Shavlik product implemented into your dashboards. If you aren't aware it's coming here is a good discussion to check out.
Otherwise if you have any question, PM me and I'd be more than happy to answer them!
Are we still "assured" this feature is coming?
+1 on the patch management request. Glad to hear about the partnering with Shavlik.

This is just a quick recording I did on my phone. I wanted to create a test post but couldn't think of anything. So tonight, while at work on a cigarette break I recorded this little thing about words and actions. It's completely off the cuff and may even seem a bit incoherent. I was just rambling. I like the subject though and may revisit this theme in the future with something a bit more cohesive 🙂 Since I recorded it on a phone and I'm at work, I couldn't really clean it up.

Addled in the saddle? Woman charged with DUI on horseback
LAKELAND, Fla. — A 53-year-old woman riding a horse down a busy Florida highway has been arrested and charged with driving drunk.
Polk County Sheriff's officials said in a news release that someone called 911 about a woman who appeared confused and possibly in danger. When deputies arrived they found Donna Byrne riding her horse in the road.
Officers did a sobriety test and said she gave breath samples that registered blood-alcohol level of .161 — twice Florida's legal limit of .08.
Byrne is charged with DUI and animal neglect for endangering and failing to provide proper protection for the horse.
Deputies took the horse to the Polk County Sheriff's Animal Control livestock facility. She was booked into the Polk County Jail. Jail records did not list an attorney for her.

text: areafivesixonehotmailcom 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2011 Hi All, Once again. Great platform theme and community, i'd like to contribute once i'm done with this customization. Okay in a nutshell. I have moved the feature to float right at a width of 700px and am using it as the homepage. I'd like to add a widgetized sidebar to the blank space where the feature used to stretch. In the pic where the red lines are is where I'm looking to add the widgetized sidebar. I understand this is not a rookie customization and I am trying to make a deadline for this project and I am willing to pay for this customization. Much thanks and respect! ) Jessica Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Variable – Speed PUMP
According to EPA Energy Star third-party testing, Hayward's TriStar variable-speed residential pool pump is the most energy-efficient pump on the market.
The pump is essentially the heart of the swimming pool's circulation system.
Your pool's circulation system comprises the elements of your pool that take water from the pool, filters it, sanitizes it, and returns the water back to the pool. If your pump is not running, the water from your pool is not being properly circulated or filtered.
Variable Speed Pump Benefits
It may be surprising to learn that a single speed pool pump can be the second largest consumption of energy in your house after heating and air conditioning. With the installation of a variable speed pump, it is possible to cut the associated energy costs up to 90%, which can translate to hundreds or even thousands of dollars every year.
As with most advanced, more efficient products, variable speed pumps cost more than single speed pumps. This incremental investment is often recovered in energy savings in less than two years. In addition, many municipalities and states offer utility rebates, further offsetting the initial cost.
Additional Benefits
In addition to incredible energy savings, variable speed pumps offer additional benefits such as:
- Noticeably quieter than traditional pumps, not to go unnoticed especially in a home with a smaller space
- Advanced motor technology: totally enclosed fan cooled (TEFC) design provide added reliability compared to standard pool pump motors
- Allow for better and more effective pool filtration through slower water filtration rates.
Single Speed
These pumps use an induction motor that runs at a constant speed of 3450 RPM. They can be flooded suction pumps, meaning they are placed below the water line using gravity to keep the pump primed, or they can be self-priming, which is the typical in-ground installation.
Two Speed Pump
The two-speed pump uses an induction motor that operates at either full-speed (3450 RPM) or half-speed (1725 RPM). When running at half-speed, a pump can provide significant energy savings, while still having the ability to run at full-speed when more water flow is needed.
Hayward Booster Pumps
Hayward's booster pump is the most aftermarket friendly and energy efficient booster pump in the industry. It uses up to 40% less electricity than other models and has an exceptionally quiet operation. Both 1½" pipe unions and ¾" hose fittings are included to provide easy installation and service for new construction and replacement applications. It is also equipped with a tall, elevated mounting base allowing for increased motor ventilation and added protection from flooding. These desirable features have made Hayward's booster pump a leader among its competition.
According to EPA Energy Star third-party testing, Hayward's TriStar variable-speed residential pool pump is the most energy-efficient pump on the market.

Sharon Anglim, MA, APR, serves as Director of Communications and Special Projects for the school district. Working closely with the district leadership team, school board and district executive staff, Mrs. Anglim supports the educational process by working to enhance two-way communication with stakeholders at all levels. Primary duties include district website curator, strategic planning, public relations, community and parent involvement, and public information officer. Project management duties include textbook adoption and purchasing, along with working closely with Dr. Winstead as system testing coordinator. Mrs. Anglim also serves as the district home school coordinator.
Sharon can be reached in the central office and welcomes the opportunity to speak with you or direct you to the best person who might offer the help you need.
For more information, select from the topics below:
We are always happy to work with school staff and media representatives to share the wonderful stories about students and education with our stakeholders, the community and across the region.
Please contact the Communication Office (865-982-7121) for assistance with print, broadcast or online media. We will coordinate access to facilities, staff and students as needed.
We recognize the importance of media as a source of information, but we also share the important job of ensuring the safety and privacy of students, staff, and families. We will do everything we can to work cooperatively with all requests - as long as the request is lawful, adheres to safety requirements, and does not interfere with teaching or learning.
Media outlets wishing to be added to our media distribution list for press releases should contact us at email@example.com .
- Electronic delivery of flyers is available through PeachJar.com. Organizations can set up accounts to distribute to several or a single school in the district.
- Flyer emails are distributed weekly.
- All flyers must include a disclaimer such as, "This flyer was provided by __________ for consideration by parents or staff in the Maryville City Schools. Distribution through this school resource does not automatically imply endorsement by the school or district. Parents should seek references or independently research any program for students."
- Organizational information on the flyer should not imply a close alliance with the schools, where none exists. A disclaimer related to the name of the organization may be required.
- Flyers should be limited to one page (where possible). Format flyers in portrait format for optimal viewing.
- Our goal is to provide information to families about "enrichment" activities in the community. The district will not allow distribution of flyers for commercial purposes or purposes unrelated to the district's educational mission.
- Permission to distribute flyers does not constitute an endorsement of the event, program or organization by the school or school district.
- Any organization wishing to also display a printed flyer at any school with a community table, may issue no more than 50 printed copies per school via the central office (833 Lawrence Ave, Maryville) at least 10 days in advance of the event.
At least three times each school year the district will conduct surveys of student households. These are conducted first via email and then via phone if you don't have email or don't respond to email. This survey process is tied to our strategic plan and provides valuable feedback for planning and continuous improvement. Should you receive a request to participate, we would greatly appreciate your thoughtful responses. As the need arises we may issue other surveys, but we are very cautious to reserve this process for only the most important requirements at the district level.
Our goal is to keep stakeholders apprised of current events and matters of interest to the education community – including the many student events and performances offered each year across the district, as well as state and nation news. Both our schools and the district post news captions and photos online. Press releases are posted to the district site under News.
District news scrolls on the right side of the home page for both the district and each school. School specific news is also scrolled on the school home page. Those stakeholders using social media may wish to "like" the Maryville City Schools Facebook page - another avenue to share good news with our friends as often as possible.
We very much appreciate the partnership of our local media outlets – in print, radio and television. As they work to serve the information needs of our community and region, their efforts to include "education news" as much as possible is an important contributing factor to how informed and involved our stakeholders can be.

It must be love.
Food and love go together like cheese and chutney, fish and chips, scallops and bacon and BoroughBox and fine, artisan foodstuffs 🙂
So with Valentine's Day just around the corner, here at BoroughBox HQ we've pulled together a special selection of the LOVE-liest products on the BoroughBox site as well as a LOVE-ly Valentine's day exclusive! So check out the Valentine's Day Foodie Gift range here.
One thing that we think is well worth drawing your attention to is our Luxury Valentine's Day Hamper. This is, quite simply, the ultimate foodie gift for Valentine's Day.
The Borough Box 'Luxury Valentine's Hamper' is an awesome selection of products that will truly show the lucky recipient how special they are. Delivery is all inclusive for arrival on Saturday 14th February and we'll include a personalised gift message that's as rude or mushy as you like 😉

The Godminster 'Heart to Heart' Set. This is a loving combination of delicious Heart-Shaped Vintage Organic Cheddar and Heart-Shaped Organic Brie and we will present these delicious cheeses alongside the famous Godminster Rosemary biscuits.
You've had your cheese, now onto the chocs… we've chosen Artisan du Chocolat to feature their tantalising box of luxury Pearls alongside hand tied sweet treats.
…and no night of romance would be perfect without a bottle of NYETimber sparkling wine. For over twenty years the NYETimber Vineyard has had a single aim: to make the finest English sparkling wine, one to rival the very best wines in the world… and the taste, clarity and aroma of this exceptional English sprkling wine as well as the awards and accolades proves just what a good job they've done!
…and hopefully if all goes to plan 😉 …nudge nudge…

From Sea Island Coffee we have Wild Kopi Luwak coffee – this is the world's rarest & most reassuringly expensive coffee. Beware of imitations claiming to be this product and be assured that this most definitely isn't one!
These are truly exceptional products, all of which will be securely packed, attractively presented and shipped directly to the door … on Saturday 14th February for Valentine's Day itself.
If that doesn't win you some attention, nothing will!

R48 million budget and 10 years later still no houses for military veterans
7 August 2018
Today the Democratic Alliance conducted an oversight inspection at Riebeeckstaad in Welkom, where R48 million was budgeted for 62 military veterans that were identified. In 2008 each military veteran was promised a house costing R280 000. To date, those houses have never been built.
Since September 2017 only ten foundations were laid. The foundations are still there and there is no hope of these houses being built anytime soon. When the beneficiaries questioned the status of the project, they were informed by a government official under Premier Sisi Ntombela, who was then the CoGTA MEC, that there was no money to pursue the project.
Ithuteng Consultancy from Parys was awarded the contract, seemingly an ally of former Premier Ace Magashule. This is the same company that failed to pay the money for the hostels that they were renting from the Free State Development Corporation (FDC), and has also been accused of failing to complete a housing project in Bethlehem.
The DA will write to the Chairperson of Human Settlements, Nocawe Mafu, and request her to summon Matjhabeng's Mayor, Nkosinathi Speelman and the Municipal Manager, Thabiso Tsoaeli to appear before the committee and account for the R48 million that was budgeted for the military veterans houses.
Mr. Samuel Bani, who is one of the beneficiaries, feels betrayed by the government that he fought and sacrificed for. He feels that their hard work has gone unnoticed.
The DA will continue monitoring the project to ensure the people responsible for the disappearance of the R48m will be held accountable, starting with the Accounting Officer, who is the Municipal Manager and the political leadership.
The DA is committed to bringing change that will ensure a corruption-free and caring government that will put the people's needs first.

The recovery in the house market should boost Bellway's results next week, while the same factor may lift BSkyB's figures as households are more likely to change TV and phone provider when they move.
Government efforts to pump up the housing market should ensure a year of surging profits and sales for housebuilder Bellway when it reports results tomorrow.
The Newcastle-based builder will publish figures for the year to the end of July, with analysts on average expecting pre-tax profits to surge to £139m from £105.3m a year earlier.
Bellway has already reported 12% growth in housing revenue to around £1.1bn for the year, with profit margins also improving, after selling 5,652 homes, an increase of 8.2%.
The Government recently gave another boost to the housing market by extending its Help to Buy scheme with £12 billion of mortgage guarantees, building on an initial equity loan scheme which allows people to buy a new home with a 5% deposit.
Analysts at Panmure Gordon said: "It is our understanding that all of the UK housebuilders are trading well at the moment.
"We expect the company to report strong forward and current sales when it publishes its full-year results."
The builder also cited a 54% bigger order book, and has opened two new divisions in Manchester and the Thames Valley to give it 15 divisions.
Numis Securities analyst Chris Millington said: "We believe the group is very strongly placed to benefit from the improving trends in the new housing market backed by Help to Buy."
The intensifying battle for broadband and TV customers will take centre stage on Thursday when British Sky Broadcasting updates on first-quarter trading.
BT recently stepped up the pressure on Sky with its new live sport offer, which includes a three-year deal to show 38 Premier League games a season.
BT hopes to win over broadband customers by offering them free sport if they sign up to a broadband internet package.
And analysts at Numis Securities reckon Sky's growth in broadband customers will slow in the three months to the end of September to about 75,000, from 102,000 a year earlier.
Sky is increasingly focusing on "triple-play" services spanning TV, internet and home phones.
Investec Securities analyst Steve Liechti said the number of paid-for products taken by customers should rise by 594,000, from 533,000 growth a year earlier - although this includes new Sky Go Extra products.
He said: "While Sky looks a safe haven given current US government issues, competitive dynamics are tough, evidenced by BT Sport launch activity."
But despite tougher competition, analysts at Numis believe Sky could benefit from Britain's improving housing market.
Burberry will update on demand for its trench coats and handbags when it reports on trading for the six months to the end of September tomorrow.
Analysts favour its store expansion in cities such as Shanghai, and also back its digital strategy. They expect first-half retail sales to have grown to £694m from £577m a year earlier.
Baby products retailer Mothercare is expected to reveal a decline in UK sales when it updates on trading on Thursday, although hopes that its turnaround is gathering pace will remain.
The group saw UK like-for-like sales edge 0.9% lower in its first quarter to July 13, blaming an "increasingly promotional" market that hit demand for toys, home and travel products.
But a 14.6% surge in online Direct in Home sales limited the UK trading woes, while its international business continued to storm ahead with 11.3% growth.
The warm summer weather is set to have helped drive a rise in half-year profits for cash-and-carry chain Booker after the heatwave boosted many of its wholesale restaurant customers.
Booker, which reports interims on Thursday, cheered a "good start to the year" after like-for-like sales rose 2.3% in the first half to September 13.

Ice Cube Makes Major Money Move! Big3 League Coming To CBS All Summer + Lamar Odom Joins, Lisa Leslie Set To Coach
Ice Cube is making major money moves with his Big3 basketball league. Games will air on network television all summer long. Find out how to watch inside...
Everything Ice Cube touches turns into gold.
The west coast rapper just inked a major deal with CBS and CBS Sports to have his Big3 League games aired all summer long after his two-year deal with FOX Sports expired.
The BIG3 is proud to announce @CBS and @CBSSports as the official broadcast partners of Season 3. Games will air LIVE Saturdays and Sundays starting June 22. Every weekend. All summer long. #BIG3Season3 #BIG3onCBS pic.twitter.com/ji0xwtqULf
— BIG3 on CBS (@thebig3) April 4, 2019
The Big 3 - the professional 3-on-3 basketball league founded by the hip hop musician in 2017 - has teamed up with the network for its third season where fans will get to soak in over 20 hours of live coverage on Saturdays and Sundays, beginning with a prime-time game at 8pm EST on June 22nd.
"Since day 1, BIG3 has always been about hard-nosed, fierce competition. Now we're ramping it up with more teams, younger players, and a shiny new TV deal with CBS Sports," Ice Cube said in a statement released Thursday. "Our first two years were about showing that our vision was credible. This year is about taking the game to a whole new level. This is a big deal."
Several former NBA ballers will be returning for the new season, including Amar'e Stoudemire, Carlos Boozer, Rashard Lewis and Stephen Jackson. This season will also feature newcomers like Lamar Odom, Gilbert Arenas (lord), Mario Chalmers, and Jason Terry.
This season will roll out 12 teams (up from 8 in previous seasons) and a slate of head coaches, som of them women. Former WNBA star/Basketball Hall of Famer Lisa Leslie will coach one of the new clubs named the Triplets. She's the 2nd female coach to join Big3's ranks, joining fellow Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman.
Last year, the Julius Erving Championship Trophy went to 3's Company, and captain Corey Maggette took home the MVP.
By the way, Cube and LL Cool J teamed up for another total sports TV domination, if they can pull off that deal.
They're bidding to cop 22 regional sports channels, including NYC's YES network, after Disney being forced to sell. Disney tried to be slick and received the 22 stations as part of it's $71 billion acquisition of 21st Century FOX. However, Disney is already the majority owner of ESPN, so the Justice Department feels they would have too much power in the sports TV landscape with those 22 regional stations.
They have to beat out other bigwigs who are looking to make this come up. It's reported they're joining forces with billionaire Alex and Ani jewelry founder Carolyn Rafaelian. It's also said other sports and cultural icons are interested in participating in the bid.
Fingers crossed they nab this deal.
In music news...
Ice Cube released the official music video for "Ain't Got No Haters," featuring Too Short. It's a cut from his 10th studio album, Everythangs Corrupt. Watch the full video and the behind-the-scenes video below:
1. Steph Curry started wearing contact lenses and his shooting percentage went way up. Apparently, he has a degenerative eye disease! STORY

Personally, I love the idea of paying for things using my existing mobile 'phone bill. It's easy for me, because the account has already been set up and comes out every month on largely the same day. My carrier let me know a few days in advance to remind me how much it will be and I can check on the amount at any time using a mobile application. I also don't like credit cards and don't always like quoting card details over the 'phone as it might mean juggling wallet and handset in a public place, plus I never know who's listening. For me, then, adding something to my mobile bill is a great feature and we've news today that Google is in talks with Indian mobile operator Airtel to allow customers the ability to pay for Google products and services via their existing mobile bill. If this goes though, this could be a win-win-win scenario for Airtel, customers and Google. Airtel benefit because they will take a share of the revenue generated. Customers benefit from the improved security and they won't need a credit card for transactions (only 2% of the Indian population currently own a credit card) to get access to Google's extensive library. And of course, Google benefit because it will significantly open up the market for them.
The revenue sharing deal is interesting. Airtel's data-using customer base stands at 40 million with around 12.5 million having access to 3G. It's common practice for carriers and suppliers to strike a deal, which is subject to regulatory approval, where revenue for carrier bill purchases is shared between the two. In this case, the rumour is that Google asked for 90% of the revenue with Airtel holding out for a better deal. We also know that Microsoft is planning to launch a carrier billing solution for India but we do not know the timescales. It appears that Airtel would be in good company, too; Vodafone recently announced changes to their revenue sharing arrangements with the split being 70% for the provider and 30% for the carrier. However, let's not disregard Google's own strength as Android One has just been launched in India. Google already offer carrier billing across the world in countries and are experienced in such matters. This carrier billing solution is one that works and could be a real money-maker for both carrier and provider.
What do our readers think to this development? Is carrier billing something you would be comfortable with? Would you prefer this to using a PayPal, bank or credit card?

Happy Bird-Day... DIY Festive Ornament
Happy BIRD-day! Maria here today to share a fun project! You never know when or where artsy inspiration will strike. Some time ago after Easter, I went shopping and noticed these cute tin bird containers that were on clearance. They were filled with some type of hard candy, but all I could think about is how I wanted to make a mold out of the container!!!
I like to paint my pieces with white acrylic first. I find it allows me to use any type of paint I want on top afterward. For this project I used an assortment of DecoArt Patio Paints; simply because I love the bright colors.
First, I painted the base coat, all green. I had so much fun painting this little birdie... and suddenly all the painting was done.

Product Description
Free Shipping & No Sales Tax
The Dirty Hand Tools Model 100 Post Hole Digger is generally for Category 1 and 2 tractors and allows for fast post hole digging with convenient, safe operation from the tractor seat. Quick connect to 6 spline PTO. Carbide, replaceable cutting edge with spiral tip point included.
RanchEx brand 6, 9, and 12 inch augers available for this model (SKU's 101017, 101018, 101019, 100499, 100500, 100501). Pictures shown with bits to illustrate but sold separately as options.
Some Features:
The maximum depth the augers can go depends on the riding height and angle of the tractor and the position of the 3-Point hitch on your particular machine.
Optional Bits:
Normal / Lite Use Bits – 34.5 inches long
101017 – 6″ diameter
Heavy Duty Use Bits – 47.75 inches long
100499 – 6″ diameter
Sizing between Cat 0 – 3 is not universal between different tractor manufacturers. For most tractors, the recommended sizing is:
Post Hole Digger Model 90 – Cat 0 — Outside to Outside Width on the A-Frame 20"
Post Hole Digger Model 100 – Cat 1 & 2 — Outside to Outside Width on the A-Frame 25.5"
Post Hole Digger Model 110 – Cat 2 & 3 — Outside to Outside Width on the A-Frame 32"
All diggers come with the CAT 1 pins as whole assemblies. If you need different pins such as cat 0, 2 or 3 pins then that will be the customers responsibility to change out. The sizing between the pins on the tractor should be matched as closely as possible to the Outside to Outside width of the A-Frame to ensure a proper fit. You can use the "recommended Cat sizing" above as a general/rough guide – however this may not apply to every tractor.

Don't let the anonymity of an electronic storefront scare away potential customers and drive them to use your site for product research alone. We'll share a few tips for reducing purchase anxiety and earning visitor trust.
The ease of purchase, breadth of products and depth of information that ecommerce offers ensures that it will continue to command larger and larger share of overall commerce marketplace. However, several hurdles slow that growth and allow brick and mortar establishments to keep their foothold.
Customers face several anxieties that sometimes make traditional commerce more appealing: digital storefronts limit their ability to see the product they are purchasing, electronic hard-sells make purchasing more stressful and they never get that reassuring face-to-face interaction with their merchant. So how can digital entrepreneurs help alleviate those anxieties?
Create a Detailed About Us PageA detailed About Us page with staff photographs, company history and business philosophy reminds visitors that they are not dealing with a purely automated process. There are real people who select inventory, who had passionate dream that led them to create their business and who can help them if their product fails to meet their customer's expectations.
Make GuaranteesObviously, one of the best ways to reduce anxieties about purchase satisfaction is to guarantee satisfaction. Every shopper is looking for a product that helps solve a problem, so give them an expectation for how quickly your product will do just that; for example, advertise that your fuel additive with improve efficiency by X% over the course of X days.
By guaranteeing full refunds for products that fail to meet these promises—or even better, offering to pay for shipping on returned items—you can put your customers' minds at ease. Just be sure to clarify the terms of your refund and what kind of proof the customer will need to provide.
Change Your PhrasingThere is a place for strong calls to action. If you have just written a 2,000 word article about how your plant food will produce prize-winning tomatoes in a matter of months, then you may wish to close with an equally strong, "Buy now to start your prize-winning garden today."
This is the exception, though, not the rule. Less stressful "Proceed to Checkout" and "Add to Cart" buttons still provide a call to action without the stressful language of hype-filled marketing.
Use a Soft Add-to Cart FeatureA customer's anxiety spikes when an "Add to Cart" click takes them immediately to the checkout page. Their commitment to consider a product has suddenly transformed into a commitment to buy. Instead, employ a soft add-to cart feature, which allows customers to continue browsing and adding more products while leaving the decision to start the checkout process in their hands.
Showcase Testimonials and Get SaSyTestimonials are your site's most powerful storytelling device. When possible, incorporate ratings and review from third party sites like Yelp and outside channels like Ebay and Amazon. Include a mixture of testimonial topics, from product quality to praise for fast shipping. Keep an eye out for reviews where customers go into detail about the ways they are using their new products; these will encourage your visitors to imagine themselves doing the same. You can encourage more such testimonials by placing focus in SaS (service after the sale). When customers respond favorably to the extra mile you have just walked, ask them if they would be open to sharing their positive experience in reviews and ratings.
If you are looking for more ways to increase your website's conversions and would like to see real-world recommendations for example sites, be sure to read our marketing checkup blog series.

The final three chapters in From Heaven He Came and Sought Her address practical matters. In this chapter, Daniel Strange deals with the issue of the unevangelized.
In his introduction, Strange thinks universal atonement (UA) presents "insurmountable theological difficulties" (587). He suggests that unlimited atonement cannot be the basis of a well-meant gospel offer for those who never hear the gospel since "it makes no offer at all, thus making it 'limited'" (587).
But this is certainly no fault of UA. It is not UA that makes the offer; it is Christians who make the offer on behalf of God.
According to those who hold to UA, there is an objective remedy for the sins of all people, regardless of whether it is offered or not, whether they hear the gospel or not, or whether they believe it once they hear it or not.
Strange continues: "As a result, further questions might be raised as to this atonement's 'objective' qualitative nature (especially if a 'penal' rather than a 'governmental' theory of the atonement is espoused), and ultimately of God's character and sovereignty. Christ has provided a de jure salvation for all, but de facto it is not accessible to all and is limited in its scope" (587).
The "objective nature" of the atonement is what it is whether people never hear the gospel or not. God's character is not impuned if the gospel does not come to the unevangelized. Romans 1 seems to make that clear. Rather, it is the Church's character that is impuned for lack of obedience to get the gospel to all the nations.
Interestingly, the same kind of argument with respect to God's character, namely, his universal saving love, could be made again DA.
This chapter is divided into two sections: 1) The question of the unevangelized in relation to UA; and 2) The question of the unevangelized in relation to DA.
The Unevangelized and Unlimited Atonement.
Strange immediately appeals to John Owen's Death of Death with a lengthy quotation.
Owen concluded either people can be saved apart from hearing the gospel, or the atonement must be constructed in a such a way that both the character of God and the unity of the economy of the Godhead is questioned (589).
This is a false dichotomy. It is not an either/or situation. I have addressed both issues of the character of God and Trinitarian disharmony in previous chapter reviews, so I will not cover that ground again here.
Strange proceeds to attempt to show that the atonement's objective acomplishment and subjective application is an untenable distinction (591). He queries: Can a universal atonement properly be called such when there are conditions on its application, and when not all for whom it is made hear about it?
Of course it can. The nature of conditional acceptance in and of itself indicates not all will meet the condition. Furthermore, the condition of repentance and faith for the atonement's application is placed by God himself.
Strange attempts to argue that UAs are in the same position as DAs with respect to the offer of the gospel. The unevangelized have no offer at all (592).
But there is a world of difference. UA provides the grounds for the universal offer of the gospel to all. DA does not. As I have pointed out numererous times in these chapter reviews, what is it that DA is offering the non-elect? Nothing. There is no gospel to offer them because there is no atonement made for their sins.
Referencing Robert Reymond, Strange states that UA eviscerates Christ's atoning work from its infinite intrisic worth (593). Not at all. UAs affirm the atonement's infinite intrinsic worth and its extrinsic sufficiency to save all who believe, including every person on planet earth were they to believe because there is an atonement made for every person.
Strange asks, in what way is this category of people (those who never hear the gospel) savable if they don't have the opportunity to respond? The answer is really quite simple: they are not savable unless they believe the gospel, and they can't believe it unless they hear it. They are, nonetheless, culpable before God since they have the witness of both creation and conscience a lá Romans 1:18-32.
The nature of God's objective atonement is not called into question on the UA position, as Strange suggests.
Strange then launches into a discussion of Pinnock and Hackett on the issue. He states they are "internally consistent" in making connection between UA and universal accessibility (594).
Pinnock's inclusivism is in error, as Strange rightly notes. (597)
Strange appeals to Miller's study of John 1:9 suggesting that the "light that shines in the world" is directed to those who respond to it. Here the "world" does not mean "world" but effectively means the elect (599). In previous reviews, I have already pointed out the problematic nature of this kind of exegesis.
Strange speaks of another difficulty for the UA position – the motivation for missions and evangelism "if everyone has access to respond to Christ outside of the human messenger" (599). But the vast majority of people who hold to UA also reject inclusivism.
The Unevangelized and Definite Atonement.
Strange devotes four pages to this final section. He attempts to demonstrate that DA possesses intra-systematic consistency, intra-Trinitarian harmony, and is commensurate with urgency in evangelism.
His basic position is simple: God has ordained that those chosen to salvation will hear the gospel.
He attempts to link the universality of sin with the particularity of grace as seen in the history of revelation and the revelation of history (602).
Strange rightly notes that defenders of UA will question the biblical and theological presuppositions of his case.
Strange's appeal to Acts 16:6-8 to support DA is strained at best (602). In fact, the passage has nothing to do with the extent of the atonement.
That some proponents of DA throughout history have shown an urgency in evangelism cannot be denied. What needs to be added is that many advocates of DA throughout church history have certainly lacked urgency in evangelism, and that because of their Calvinism, albeit a distorted version of it.
Strange assumes William Carey held to definite atonement, but offers no basis for this claim (604). Clearly Carey was a Calvinist, but as far as I am aware, there is no evidence in his writings that he held to DA.
Strange's chapter does not appear to me to succeed in supporting DA or in showing UA to be untenable.
That some people groups are without the gospel is no less an acute problem for UA as for DA.
Finally, consider Calvin himself on this issue:
Yet notwithstanding, all they to whom our Lord Jesus Christ hath not preached his Gospel, shall not fail to perish without mercy. They cannot defend themselves by ignorance: I say that all the heathen folk and idolaters that ever were, must have their mouths stopped. And what shall become of us then, which have had our ears beaten daily with the message that God sendeth us: which is that he requireth nothing but that we should be drawn unto him, whereunto he encourageth, yea and beseecheth us, as we have seen in 2 Corinthians 5:20? Is it not a great shame for us, that God should so far abase himself in the person of his only son, that he should beseech us? Let us fall to atonement, saith he. And what hath he done on his side? What hath he offended us? Nay contrariwise, we cease not to provoke him daily against us, and yet he cometh to say unto us I will fall to atonement with you, whereas notwithstanding there is nothing but spitefulness in us, we be like little fiends, and to be short, we be damned and forlorn, and yet cometh he to seek unto us, and desireth nothing but to have the atonement made.[1]
Here it seems that Calvin indicates there is an atonement made for the sins even of those who never hear the gospel, yet they remain guilty. Notice how his final sentence suggests a universal atonement. By the phrase "to have atonement made," Calvin is saying that God desires to apply the atonement to any sinner that hears the external call such that their sins can be forgiven.

Five key skills marketers need in our'never normal' world
We worked together with WBR to create an exciting new report on the agency / procurement dynamic. Leading procurement professionals from some of the world's top companies have identified the latest trends and insights in marketing procurement.
Whilst cost reduction and avoidance continue to dominate procurement's objectives, research indicates that improving agency/supplier performance is increasingly becoming a priority on procurement's agenda and is now among their top KPIs.
Interestingly, however, 80 percent of procurement departments do not have transparency in the client/agency relationship, demonstrating that there's still some way to go.
