Table Mountain Fire
Yesterday afternoon a fire broke out around 4pm and destroyed 700 hectares of vegetation from Table Mountain's Platteklip Gorge to Lion's head and Signal Hill, stopping just before the Twelve Apostles. A female tourist hiker died on the mountain from smoke inhalation. A man accused of starting fire, Anthony Cooper, 36, a British tourist, faces charges of culpable homicide and arson. He is alleged to have flicked out a burning cigarette while travelling.

Spreading the Gospel with the 'GodPod'
No, it's not an transcendental iPod. It's an audio player from MegaVoice that's solar-powered. Can store up to 160 hours of audio and costs $25 (ZAR150). It uses a propriety format to compress the audio so you won't be able to play your (mp3) music you downloaded from Napster. This device has been around for about a year now, but it looks like two Adventist Organizations, namely Adventist World Radio (AWR) & It Is Written, have purchased 2000 units to use it to spread the gospel in remote regions of Africa. Hope they can put up with the iffy styling though.

Seventh-day Adventist Vision for 2005-2010
Tell The World is the vision of the Seventh-day Adventist Church to communicate to all people throughout the world the everlasting gospel of God's love. This vision has laid out seven goals for the next five years which include: Spiritual Growth, Personal Witness, Community Involvement, City Outreach, Church Planting, Evangelistic programming and Media Ministries. In an interview with the World Church President, Jan Paulsen, it was asked if the church could reach the goal of sharing the Gospel with 6.5 billion people on the planet? "I think we can," Paulsen said, noting that the recent "Sow 1 Billion" effort has distributed 900 million Bible study invitations worldwide so far. (Interview to be aired on Hope Channel on the 20th January.)
