Time Management Compiled by: Biju Soman
Poor management of time will prevent you from reaching your full potential.
Three Questions What is time management? How do you apply time management principles in your life? What would you like to gain from the training session on Time Management?
What is time management? Organization of activities so I can get it all done. Setting priorities so I know I can do the most important things first. Establishing goals and intentionally managing my life instead of reacting to events or drifting aimlessly through life. Time management is making wise scheduling decisions which involve self-discipline and delayed gratification.
How do you apply time management principles in your life? Establish deadline for project Break down the project into steps Establish realistic amounts of time steps Working backward from due date, set deadline for each step Incorporate enough time in schedule to complete step along with other weekly tasks
Challenges to Setting Priorities The inability to prioritize The inability or desire to organize around priorities The lack of discipline to execute around them
The Process of Prioritizing: What are the costs vs. the benefits of doing it? How well does it fit into my goals? Is there a deadline for doing it? How enjoyable is it? Have I promised/agreed to do it? What need of mine will I satisfy by doing it?
Assign Priorities A"A" Priorities: tasks you should be working on now. B"B" Priorities: tasks that can wait until "A" tasks are done. C"C" Priorities: tasks that aren't very important and can wait.
"The best thing about the future is that it only comes one day at a time" Abraham Lincoln.
A Simple Time Management Plan Get Started "Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there." - Will Rogers Get into a routine Do not say "yes" to too many things Do not commit yourself to unimportant activities, no matter how far ahead they are Divide large tasks Do not put unneeded effort into a project Set start and stop times Plan your activities
Tackle Time Wasters First, learn to recognize when you're wasting time. Decide what you need to do and can realistically do. Learn how to say "NO" when you don't have time. Use an answering machine and return calls at your convenience. The telephone is a major time killer. Learn to say "I can't talk right now. I'll get back to you." Wasting time is often linked to a lack of self-discipline. Ask yourself, " Do I really need to do this or not?"
Time and Priorities "Set priorities for your goals. A major part of successful living lies in the ability to put first things first. Indeed, the reason most major goals are not achieved is that we spend our time doing second things first." Robert McKain
How does this pertain to Leading others? Effective use of resources Example to others (influence) Playing a "head's up game". Helps with decisiveness Leaders understand that activity is not necessarily accomplishment Leaders never grow to a point where they no longer need to prioritize. Pareto Principle: If you focus your attention on the activities that rank in the top 20 percent in terms of importance, you will have an 80 percent return on your effort.
Three R's RWhat is Required? Your list of priorities must always begin with what is required of you. RWhat gives the greatest Return? Spend most of your time working in your areas of greatest strength. RWhat brings the greatest Reward? The things that bring the greatest reward are the fire lighters in a leader's life.
Points to Ponder… Time is our most important resource. Time is the one resource that is equally distributed. Nobody seems to ever have enough time; yet everyone has all there is. The most successful people are masters of the clock—they proactively manage time wisely instead of reacting to time and letting it manage them, like a tail wagging the dog.
"Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save" –Will Rodgers.
Two Time Concepts… Mechanical time - a structured system of regular, equal distances between seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years. Psychological Time - a perception of time being unequal - flying by or dragging by - depending upon what you are doing; time having a different quality than how we measure it.
Realize these three important things: Time is your most valuable resource. –T–Time is Money Your psychological perception of time is what counts. –T–Time is psychological You can be as productive as you want. –T–Time Management is a choice.
Good Time Management Adopting more of a psychological concept of time rather than a mechanical one. Undoing practices that waste time. Practicing attitudes and behaviors that save time. Moving from "doing" things to "being" in the now moment to be more aware and get more of the right things accomplished. Working 20-80: Doing the little things that get the biggest results.
"In anything, timing is everything" –Lao Tzu. –Lao Tzu.
The first five tips… Simplify your life. Empty your basement, attic and closets and have a huge yard sale. Delete the hundreds of messages in your in-box. Make a list of your top three values and plan your life around them and nothing else. Simplify! It will help! Take advantage of the psychological nature of time. Create more time in your mind by focusing on the present moment and how you can best use it NOW! The now moment expands time to bring a more successful future. Slow yourself down. Slow down and watch how you get twice as much done in half the time. Rushing around doesn't get any more done, usually less. Re-arrange your priorities. Reverse the typical 80-20 rule by doing the little things that get the biggest results. Do what you enjoy; avoid what you dislike. Organize! Make it easier to get and use what you need most often. Organize your physical environment and save valuable time looking for things later (not to mention preventing the needless aggravation).
The second five tips… Stop reacting and start acting. Make a choice to be more productive by getting ahead of the curve and anticipating twists and turns and thumps and bumps. Substitute productive actions for unproductive reactions. And let everyone else deal with their own emergencies! Be mentally flexible. You will be amazed at how much more you can do when you don't have to do it a certain way or expect particular results. Always over-estimate time. Underestimate what you can do in an hour and you will get more done in a week, month and year than you thought possible. Manage Your stress. When you are over-stressed you are not efficient in using time. Exercise a little, sleep well, eat right, practice a relaxing hobby and form a support network to reduce as much interfering stress as you can. Plan and prepare. A few minutes invested in planning and preparing anything will usually save hours later. So will doing a thing right the first time.
"Time only seems to matter when it is running out" –Peter Strup.
How to save 12 hours a day… 1.STOP REACTING TO OTHER PEOPLE'S EMERGENCIES AND NON-PRIORITIES. Set your own urgent priorities and keep them. Learn to say "no." Demonstrate the value of what you are doing for others to see. Teach others the importance of your time. Don't react to other people's poor planning and don't bail them out.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 2. STOP MAKING BAD CHOICES. Think ahead to make the right choice to get the best results. The right choice is the easiest and quickest one that gets the best results and costs the least in side effects or negative consequences. Anticipate likely negative consequences of a wrong decision to prevent that from happening. Bad choices and wrong decisions have to be repaired and that wastes time.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 3. THINK MORE CRITICALLY. Ask more and better questions. Dig below the surface. Take the time to understand something more fully. Admit what you don't know and commit to learning it. Focus on making small changes in your thinking to get results. Look to disprove something rather than to prove yourself right. Realize the importance of where you are seeing something from; try to change viewpoints when you get stuck. Slow down and think about your thinking—be critical of yourself.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 4. MAKE INSIGNIFICANT DECISIONS HASTILY AND DELIBERATE ON THE DIFFICULT ONES. Separate insignificant decisions from significant ones, as well as fact from emotion. Deal with the insignificant decisions quickly. Get a reasonable amount of information and details about difficult, complex decisions and then make a written decision matrix with the pro's and cons of each alternative. The winner will be clearly visible.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 5. SEPARATE CORE PROBLEMS FROM SURFACE SYMPTOMS Avoid getting distracted by "sexy" symptoms. Dig below the surface to uncover the real problem that is causing all the symptoms. Make quick fixes but look for longer range cures to apply to prevent the problem from ever re-occurring; no change = same problem again. Realize some problems are recurring and not permanently solvable; settle for temporary relief and move on. Practice asking five successive questions to get to the core problem
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 6. INVEST Rs. 25 IN A DO-LIST TABLET. Start out each day with a list of things you must finish. Keep the list in front of you. Check of the items you have completed for record- keeping and save results. Take unfinished items and put them at the head of the next day's list. Do the tedious things on the list early in the day. Make it a habit of finishing things. Look at your accomplishments and feel proud of working smart getting the right results in the right way quickly and effectively.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 7. CLAIM SOME PRIVATE TIME. Close your door at times or go somewhere private. Claim some free time to free your mind; a free mind sees things a cluttered one can't—real priorities. Get this private time in your schedule for others to know about it being "sacred;" it's more important than you may think. Don't make the mistake of violating your own private time or letting others violate it for you.
"Take care of the moments and the years will take care of themselves" –Maria Edgeworth
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 8. PLAN SOME SPONTANEITY. Set a time during each day when you can just walk around without a set agenda; you will be surprised what you can learn and get accomplished. By not appearing to be your usual over-worked over- busy self, people will tell you more. Practice the three L's during your spontaneity: Looking, Listening and Learning. You may find that you actually get more done during this time than what you plan to do.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 9. S –L- O -W D OWN. When you rush you are just speeding up time and making it pass much quicker; when you slow yourself down, so does time. If you think you have enough tie to do something you will; when you don't, you won't. Take and make time. Rushing around 1000 mph is a mistake waiting to happen and mistakes take time to repair. Slow but sure gets things finished right.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 10. ORGANIZE YOUR PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT. Much time gets wasted looking for things in a cluttered, chaotic physical environment. One hour's effort organizing a work environment will save weeks over the long haul. Arrange frequently used things conveniently and makes things generally easily retrievable. It is much easier to find things in neat, orderly environment. Fix broken things as they waste time.
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 11. UNPLUG YOUR PHONE. Phone interruptions are the biggest time waster; you are always doing something else more important. Take and return phone calls at a pre-arranged time during your day. When phone calls are on your own time, you won't rush too much or project impatience; both these things may require more time to correct. Special note on e-mail: There is too much of it and messages are too long. Do your part in making a much needed cut back!
Saving 12 hours a day cont… 12. APPLY "P" POINTS. "P" Points are psychological power points—the smaller, well- placed and well-timed interventions that get the biggest results (example newspaper headlines, political sound bytes, aggressive listening, etc. All these time-saving tips are good examples of "P" Points. Another good example is to take a few minutes to plan your communication with another person so you maximize clarity, connection, understanding, listening and impact.
How effective Time Management works for you… You are more productive. You reduce your stress. You improve your self-esteem. You achieve balance in your life. You conquer multitasking. You establish an important skill. You reach your goals.
Parting advice… Alvin Toffler's Future Shock is upon us: We are all over-loaded. Too much to do and too little time to do it in. Good time management is necessary for s ss surviving. Excellent time management is necessary for t tt thriving. Do you want to just survive or thrive?

Subject | [jira] [Updated] (DERBY-5643) Occasional hangs in replication tests on Linux |
Date | Tue, 13 Mar 2012 15:34:39 GMT |
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5643?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-5643: -------------------------------------- Attachment: higher-timeout.diff Attaching a new patch (higher-timeout.diff) that changes the default server startup timeout in NetworkServerTestSetup to four minutes. If the server startup eventually succeeds, but takes more than one minute, it'll call alarm(...) to tell that something isn't quite as it should be, but it won't actually fail unless it has been unsuccessful for four minutes. The patch also makes the replication tests and the compatibility tests use NetworkServerTestSetup's helper methods to ping the server while waiting for it to start. This makes it possible to remove some duplicate logic from those tests, and makes the tests behave in a more consistent manner. I've run derbyall, suites.All and the compatibility tests successfully with the patch. I've also had the replication tests running in a loop for four hours on a machine where I saw frequent hangs before. No hangs so far, but I've seen two occurrences of the alarm message, which indicates that the condition that previously made the tests hang did happen: ALARM: Very slow server startup: 189735 ms ALARM: Very slow server startup: 189850 ms > Occasional hangs in replication tests on Linux > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-5643 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5643 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Replication, Test > Affects Versions: 10.9.0.0 > Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen > Attachments: higher-timeout.diff, thread-dump.txt, waitFor-2.diff, waitFor.diff > > > We occasionally see hangs in the replication tests on Linux. For example here: http://dbtg.foundry.sun.com/derby/test/Daily/jvm1.6/testing/testlog/sles/1298470-suitesAll_diff.txt > This test run was stuck in tearDown() after ReplicationRun_Local_Derby4910.testSlaveWaitsForMaster().

The battalion deployed during January 1928 to Corinto, Nicaragua and assigned to the 2d Brigade. They were deactivated August 20, 1929 on board the USS Henderson while en route to the United States.
World War II[edit]
2/11 was again reactivated on January 1, 1941 at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba as the 2d Battalion, 11th Marines, 1st Brigade. Relocated during April 1941 to Parris Island, South Carolina. They deployed during June 1942 to Wellington, New Zealand. The battalion participated in the following World War II battles: Battle of Guadalcanal, Finschhafen, Battle of New Britain, Battle of Peleliu and the Battle of Okinawa. They redeployed during September 1945 to Tientsin, China and participated in the occupation of Northern China from September 1945 to December 1946.
They were reassigned during January 1947 to the Fleet Marine Force and redeployed during January - February 1947 to Guam.

They returned in March–April 1971 to Camp Pendleton, California.
The Gulf War[edit]
Deployed during December 1990 with Regimental Landing Team 5, 5th Marine Expeditionary Brigade to Southwest Asia. They participated in the defense of Saudi Arabia until January 1991 and proceeded to participate in the liberation of Kuwait in January - May 1991 operating in Um Guar Al-Juba, Al Wafrah. Following the war they took part in the Bangladesh relief effort Operation Sea Angel in May 1991. The battalion returned on June 29, 1991 to Camp Pendleton, California, and was last the Gulf War combat unit to return stateside.
1998- Battery F was attached to 31st MEU(SOC) BLT 2/4 Battery F Awarded the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal(with Bronze star) for Combat Operations and Naval Unit Commendations(with Bronze Star), Meritirous Unit Commendation and Sea Service Deployment Ribbon.
The flexibility of the MEU was demonstrated with the Iraq crisis in late 1998 regarding the regime not complying with the U.N. weapons inspections process. All four ARG ships had just completed Exercise Foal Eagle off the coast of Korea, and were heading to various port visits for liberty, when each ship received the call in early Nov 1998 to sail immediately to Okinawa to onload the 31st MEU.
A significant portion of the 31st MEU's 2000 Marines were engaged in urban warfare training in Guam when their message to return to Okinawa came in November. The rest were still in Okinawa, but approximately a quarter of those were a new infantry battalion, just rotating in from California. The battalion had just two days to gather all their personnel to get ready to deploy.
The 31st MEU and ships' company personnel started their initial onloads to the ships on 9 Nov and completed the morning of 11 Nov. In one night alone, they loaded more than 170 pallets of equipment, weapons, and cargo. In addition, a C-5 Galaxy from Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, originally scheduled to bring maintenance supplies and tools to Okinawa two weeks later, arrived early on 10 Nov 1998 in order to restock the MEU's Air Combat Element. This evolution was a part of the normal supply rotation, but the shipment arrived a week early – just in time to load onto the ships before they departed.
From Nov 1998 to Feb 1999, the MEU participated in operations in the Persian Gulf and off the coast of Kuwait, including Operation Southern Watch and Operation Desert Fox.
In December 1998 2/4 participated as the Battalion Landing Team (BLT) for the 31 Marine Expeditionary Unit Special Operations Capable (MEUSOC). The operation, named "Desert Fox", was a retaliation to Saddam Hussein's refusal to comply with U.N. Security Council Resolutions that led to a coalition air bombing campaign. The Marines of 2/4 were also set up in a defense at and around Muttla ridge, in Kuwait, to act as a deterrent for any Iraqi attack on Kuwait that might have followed the air campaign.
Global War on Terror[edit]
Operation Iraqi Freedom[edit]
2/11 deployed during January 2003 with the 1st Marine Division to Kuwait. They participated in the 2003 invasion of Iraq as part of Regimental Combat Team 5.

In August 2004, the battalion again deployed in support of OIF and operated as a provisional military police with the 1st Marine Division in Ramadi, Iraq. They returned to Camp Pendleton in March 2005. From then to September 2007, individual batteries continued to deploy as both traditional artillery and provisional military police throughout Al Anbar.
From February 2008 through February 2009 the battalion deployed as civil affairs unit to areas of Fallujah, Ramadi and far western Al Anbar Province.

Heroes or Dupes?by Laurence M. Vance Americans love their war heroes. It doesn't matter where the war was fought, why it was fought, how it was fought, or what the war cost. Every battlefield is holy; every cause is just; every soldier is a potential hero. But what is it that turns an ordinary soldier into a war hero? Since it obviously depends on the criteria employed, is it possible that American war heroes are not heroes at all? Could it be that, rather than being heroes, they are instead dupes? Democrats who loathe John McCain because he is a Republican and Republicans who consider him to be a lukewarm conservative are united in their belief that, whatever his politics, McCain is a genuine war hero because he spent five years as a prisoner of the North Vietnamese. But one does not have to be a prisoner of war to be considered a war hero. The Department of Defense maintains a website that highlights "the military men and women who have gone above and beyond the call of duty in the Global War on Terror." Every soldier who died fighting in the debacles in Iraq and Afghanistan, otherwise known as Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, is also considered to be a war hero. After McCain graduated from the Naval Academy in 1958, he became a naval aviator. During the Vietnam War he rained down death and destruction on the people of Vietnam during twenty-three bombing missions. After being shot down, he was imprisoned instead of receiving the death sentence his bombs delivered to the Vietnamese. So why is he considered a war hero? If he got what he deserved, there would be 58,257 names on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington D.C. instead of 58,256. Pilots like McCain who drop napalm from the safety of their cockpit are lauded as heroes by the government, the media, and Americans ignorant enough or gullible enough to swallow the myth that there can be heroism in the performance of evil. McCain was even well received by the Vietnamese government in 2000 when he traveled to Vietnam in pursuit of a bilateral trade agreement. Begun in September of 2006, the DOD "Heroes' Archive" contains the names of 116 U.S. soldiers who performed some heroic deed fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan. Of the four soldiers currently featured, two were awarded the Bronze Star, one was awarded the Purple Heart and the Distinguished Service Cross, and the fourth was awarded the Bronze Star, the NATO Medal, the Afghan Campaign Medal, and the Outstanding Service Medal. Now, unlike General Petraeus, at least these soldiers earned their metals during real combat. Yet, the fact remains, as Catholic Eastern Rite priest Charles McCarthy has recently stated, "Murder decorated with a ribbon is still murder." Both IraqWarHeroes.org and AfghanistanWarheroes.org are "dedicated to our deceased Heroes that have served in Iraq & Afghanistan." The list of "deceased Heroes" contains the names of 4,591 U.S. soldiers who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. I don't know where these sites are getting their information from. The "Casualties in Iraq" page at Antiwar.com shows a total of 4,528 deaths. But regardless of the exact number, the point is that every soldier who died fighting in the war on terror is said to be a hero. It doesn't matter if they were killed by enemy fire, roadside bombs, friendly fire, disease, accident, or carelessness – they are all heroes. But since the war in Iraq is senseless, immoral, and criminal does it really matter how these soldiers died? Again, I refer the reader to Father McCarthy: This means that whatever we call U.S. soldiers fighting in Iraq, we should not call them heroes. Some of these "heroes" are mercenaries. The "large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny" that our Founding Fathers protested against in the Declaration of Independence are now fighting for the United States in Iraq. Since 9/11, the United States has granted citizenship to over 32,000 foreign soldiers. All it takes now is one year of service in the military to be granted citizenship. Many of these "heroes" are killers for hire. For them, the enlistment bonuses, the tuition assistance, the student loan repayment plans, the assignment incentive pay, the career training, the thirty days of vacation each year, the free medical and dental care, and the generous retirement benefits are enough to erase any concerns about the morality of traveling thousands of miles away from U.S. soil to kill people they have never met or seen, and that posed no threat to America or Americans. Most of these "heroes," however, are dupes. They think they are fighting for our freedoms when instead they are helping to destroy our freedoms. They think they are retaliating for 9/11 when instead they are paving the way for another terrorist attack. They think they are preventing terrorism when instead they are making terrorists. They think they went to Iraq to fight al-Qaeda when instead al-Qaeda came to Iraq because of them. They think they are protecting Israel when instead they are contributing to increased hatred of Israel. They think that our cause is just when instead it violates every just war principle ever formulated. They think they are fighting injustice when instead they are committing a crime against the Iraqi people. They think they are defending the United States when instead they are helping to destroy it. One of the saddest cases of a duped hero is that of Marine Staff Sergeant Marcus Golczynski. He died fighting in Iraq on March 27 of last year while assigned to the Marine Forces Reserve's Third Battalion, 24th Marine Regiment, Fourth Marine Division, in Nashville, Tennessee. He had been in the Marine Reserves for twelve years, and was thirty years old when he died. About a week before he died, Golczynski sent home this e-mail: At his funeral in Lewisburg, Tennessee, the eight-year-old son he left behind was presented with the flag from his father's casket. This was captured in a heart-rending photograph that has circulated around the Internet. But Golczynski was not the only one who was duped. Instead of being outraged about his son's death, his father said that "we owe a debt of gratitude that we will never be able to pay." And instead of resenting the government that sent the father of her son to fight and die in a senseless foreign war, his wife said that her husband "made the sacrifice for my freedom." The terrible truth, of course, is that Sergeant Golczynski, like all of the other soldiers who died in Iraq, died for a lie. He was duped by his commander in chief who said our cause was just. He was duped by the secretary of defense who said the war would be over quickly. He was duped by his commanding officers who said he should obey orders. He was duped by veterans who said he was fighting for our freedoms. He was duped by Republicans who said he needed to follow the president's leadership. He was duped by politicians who said we should trust them. He was duped by pundits who said we had to fight them "over there" lest we have to fight them "over here." He was duped by preachers who said we should obey the powers that be. He was duped by Christians who said we must fight against Islamo-fascism. He was duped by Americans who said he was a hero. He was duped by the lying and killing machine known as his own government. Marcus Golczynski was not alone. Millions of Americans were duped as well. Millions of Americans remain duped. The fact that McCain can talk about being in Iraq for a hundred years and still be greeted by cheering crowds and receive millions of votes says a lot about just how much Americans are duped. The love affair that Americans have with all things military must be ended. The United States has become a rogue state, a pariah nation, an evil empire – all made possible by the dupes in the U.S. military we call heroes. April 18, 2008 Laurence M. Vance [send him mail] writes from Pensacola, FL. His latest book is a new and greatly expanded edition of Christianity and War and Other Essays Against the Warfare State. Visit his website.

Vulnerable Families
Vulnerable Families
Research on vulnerable children and families has been central to our work since the inception of the Carsey Institute in 2004. Core to the work of the Vulnerable Families Research Program is an understanding of how families are faring economically across the nation, within regions, states, and across rural, suburban, and urban places. We pay particular attention to trends in child poverty rates, social safety net usage, and making work pay. We coordinate with external researchers, policy makers, advocates, and practitioners "on the ground" to ensure that our research is timely and relevant. Our accessible analyses are widely read by legislators and their staff, child and family advocates, practitioners, academics, and the media, and we frequently deliver presentations to a wide range of audiences.

UPDATE: The Toshiba forums have a rep that is working on this issue. I sent him a PM (he is asking all folks with the issue to do so). Go to post 10: Thrive not waking from Stand By - requires reboot - Toshiba Forums End update I have seen posts about this in other forums and I am having it as well. It is hit and miss if the device comes out of sleep mode and just happened again. Pressing the power button sometimes does not wake the device up and you have to hold the power down to shut off and then restart. This has happened three times so far. Besides this issue (and the stiff power button), the Thrive has been outstanding. Anybody have a fix, besides returning this fine device? I did the update that was released. Update: It is now having the issue all the time. I have tried four times now and still not coming out of sleep, forcing me to hold the power down to shut off and then restart. Mega bummer, since besides this issue, the Thrive rocks. Update 2: Now working again, but nothing I did to fix. Seems a random issue. Ironic: The the A500 will not stay asleep and the Thrive will not wake up. Both great devices besides this.
I just mentioned in another thread that I haven't had this happen yet in the three days I've had the thrive. I did notice another poster elsewhere recommending that you turn it off and take the battery out and then plug in and replace the battery while the unit is on (I think that's the sequence anyway). Not sure if that trick is verified but it's free to find out I suppose.
I tried the steps you mention, but like most others that have also tried, it did not work. The Thrive more times than not, does not come out of sleep mode. My Thrive also does not turn off unless holding the power button down for five seconds. The normal power off results in a "shutting down" notification, but does not shut down. If no solution happens in the next week, I will return the Thrive. Seems I may end up with a Transformer after all, since does not have the sleep issues like the A500 and Thrive.
the solution for now is simple: never allow it to go to sleep. I wonder if you can press the power button and shut down the screen like my Archos 70 on thrive. This will prolong the battery life.
Leaving the display on 24/7 is extreme for obvious reasons... I hope you were joking..... Still not seeing how this got missed by Toshiba devs. I love the connectivity, but may forget that for stability with the Transformer. The problem is very common, so hopefully they fix it fast.... Less than 12 days fast.
It goes in sleep mode when the display goes off. Battery life would suck chrome from a trailer hitch though.
Surely I can still have music playing, wifi turned on, market updating, etc on my Archos 70 when the display is turned off. So you can not do them in Thrive?
Sorry, I see what you are saying now. I am using "sleep" too generally. As soon as the display goes off, the display will not come back on when pressing the power button. This happens about 70% of the time.
Bummer. I'm on day 3 and it hasn't happened yet so maybe I've gotten lucky. I'll keep my fingers crossed because I'm pretty satisfied so far.
I was having an issue where the power light does not go into pulsating mode when put into sleep and the battery would drain. But turned off the email notifications and that seemed to fix the issue. Perhaps the notifications were preventing it from sleeping? I do not have an issue of waking the unit up as described here, but thought this might help. Can't love the Thrive enough, but if this small issue isn't resolved, I may reluctantly return it.
I would like to know why my luck has sucked with the last three Android devices. My first devices all had qwirks (all do), but did not have failures like the current ones. G1, Droid1, Incredible and gTablet all worked fine (Inc and gTablet still do), but my recent devices all have had return worthy issues: My last three devices: 1. A500 = Screen-on. It woke out of sleep mode and would not go off unless the power button was pressed- big bummer for battery (I had two like that). 2. DX2 = Lag, audio pops and random reboots 3. Thrive = Power button rarely turns the display back on. Full shut down required. All three devices have common and well documented issues and all tested at stock just to see if user apps cause the issues. Same results at stock. Like the A500, the Thrive is a solid device, but better, due to better display, full sd slot, better built in file manager, battery and a usb port not placed where the hands usually hold the device (here that Acer?). Bummer it is. Will return today, since powering off and turning the device back on almost EVERY time when the display goes off is lame and leaving it on sucks too much battery (obviously). If the issue is fixed, I will buy another- if I have not already bought a 32gb Transformer. This issue has to be hurting the launch, since is a common issue. Added: The one thing that keeps from the Transformer is I HATE having to use special cables. The lack of any form of USB connection seems lame, but by design (ASUS wants you to buy the keyboard).
I tried every iteration of touch pressure, including time pressed. Returned the Thrive to BB and will wait to see if the bug is resolved. Fix the bug, mega sweet tablet. The issue is also being reported a lot at the official Toshiba forums.
I've experienced the same sleep issues... something weird though. When I charge my tablet in the docking station I dont have the issue of rebooting when it goes to the sleep mode. I just press the power button and it comes alive.
The issue is apparently getting out of hand, since all Android and tablet forums including Toshiba official forums have multiple threads about it. Mine was not the only return for the local BB.
Just to let you guys know. i just spoke with Mark at Toshiba tech support and he told me that this SOD issue is a software problem on Android Honeycomb's end. He said thaye are currently coordinating with Android to reolve the issue befroe the end of this month. He also said they are open 24 hours, so if I had any more question i could also call back.
I have the same issue. I have to power off and on just like you. There are times that it works but more often than not it does no. Bummer!
I ordered another Thrive today, due to the Staples $50 off coupon (ended today). The Thrive will be great once the issue is fixed. My 14 day return window will not kick in until the Thrive is delivered around the 25th, so should be a good window of time to see if the sleep bug is zapped. Got the 16gb this time instead of the 32gb. I will use the difference saved to buy a 64gb SDXC card.
I purchased the 8GB model from Newegg and I applied the update immediately so I didn't experience the wake/reboot issues prior to updating. The wake/reboot issue has only worsened. I can't power the screen off without having to reboot it. I've tried all the remedies mentioned in the Toshiba forums and nothing has helped. It reboots frequently when simply asleep as well. I don't believe it is an offending widget or app but simply some kind of hardware / software 'confliction' (yes I know that's not a word...but it seems appropriate). I love the tablet and all the versatility it has to offer but the necessity to reboot the tablet each time I wish to use it is unacceptable. I may return it to Newegg. I've called Toshiba and voiced the concern as well as participated in the Toshiba forums. An admin named "Jim" has asked all tablet owners who experience this issue to PM him. I strongly suggest all who experience it do the same so as increase the odds that we'll see an update sooner. Here's to you Toshiba Thrive! Jared
Yup I went there. One of the proposed solution was NOT TO TURN OFF WIFI. It looks like this one is working for me. Since this afternoon, I have been able to wake up the unit with the power button. The longest was like 4 hours while I went out. I'll leave tonite unplugged from power supply and see what happens tomorrow. Only issue is battery drains faster.
So far so good. 8 hours in sleep mode and had no problems waking the unit up. Battery ended up 92% (from 100%).
That is the catch leaving wifi on, since uses more battery. Some have had little or no luck with this method.
Well I spoke to soon I guess. I had to turn off/on again. This time however, I had several apps running in the background (since you can't close them as far as I know/learned).

Hey, I missed the party in the club car yesterday but I'll bet there are plenty of leftovers. Sunliten, sure would like to be sitting next to you in the club car and learn how to do such beautiful handwork.
Sunliten, what a wonderful present. You were a good mom because son learned giving back!!!!
Judy, haven't ever had pumpkin butter. (Pumpkin pie is my all time favorite!!!!!) Yes, with all these snacks, my thighs have gotten bigger. Maybe they will let us run beside the train for awhile to get some exercise. However, maybe we'll have to have a rope to hang on to. Jen, I have an apple tree. You can come and get some apples this fall. I'm usually tired of harvesting when the apples need picking.
Rhubarb, oh no. Was just talking about it the other day. Wondering if I should make some jam while it is ready. Haven't done anything about it yet. Making jam for the Standing Rock Reservation Christmas baskets.
Well ladies, I have some pillowcases that are staring at me. Ordered some new quilting books, but they didn't come in the mail today, so I will have to sew on these instead.
Take care - I'll be waiting for the train to stop. By the looks of my packing so far, I'll need a bus to get me there.
Jenniky, I only make applesauce, sorry. Keep your eyes open on your trip and you may find apple butter. It's good on toast. Enjoy your trip. Are you "in" for the next mystery?
How wonderful!!! You are blessed!! Where in So Cal are you? I'm in San Marcos (San Diego)!!
I'm still working on my mystery-need to add a border and then quilt and bind it! I love how it looks! (will post a picture soon). Even though I haven't finished this one, and have more Boom Swap blocks to make, as well as several other projects in the works, I do plan to take the next Mystery Train with you all!! Wouldn't want to miss all the fun in the club car!
Burbank here......I have a Godson/Nephew in San Marcos with a wonderful large family and my Sister and Brother-in-law will be visiting them for a couple of weeks, later this month.....my Daughter and I hope to join them for a day and "visit" Amidon, and Rosies and quilt- in -a-day also! do not have all the details worked out. Mini quilt run.
Every time I think about the gift from my Son and Daughter-in-law, my eyes get misty all over again.

Using wind energy to supplement your energy bill is great if you like having a big ugly propeller sticking out of the top of your house. Which I don't. Everyone knows that looks are priority #1 when it comes to sustainable energy; why do you think Al Gore spends so much time in a tanning bed? Advertisement My anti-wind energy stance may change, however, with the introduction of the LoopWing Wind Turbine from the land of the rising sun. It looks purty, don't it? It's set to be unveiled at Japan's Eco-Products 2006 Exhibition on December 14th. Product Page [via Treehugger]Reply6 repliesLeave a reply

Jackie Manuel has been designated an "allocated'' player to the Fayetteville Patriots by the NBA's minor league. Each D-League team will receive two allocated players before the Nov. 3 draft, but only one is guaranteed a spot on the team's roster. "It's an opportunity for me to be able to stay close to home where I can work out in Chapel Hill and be close to the people I love,'' Manuel said Friday. "I think Fayetteville is going to be a great opportunity for me to showcase my skills, and it's an opportunity for me to learn by playing against NBA-caliber guys." (Fayetteville Observer)

Despite a sagging economy and a floundering housing market, multifamily investments continue to perform steadily; however, the rate of growth has been slowing in the face of the weak national economy, according to Marcus & Millichap's quarterly "Performance Monitor." According to the monitor, revenues managed to continue their upward drive, advancing at a year-over-year rate of a little more than 4 percent. Steady fundamentals generated a 4.2 percent rise in apartment operating revenues since the second quarter of last year.
Multifamily starts have also risen steadily since hitting their trough in the first quarter of 2007. With a 14 percent rise in foreclosure notices over last quarter, many former home owners have moved to the rental market. Completions, starts, and permits all increased from the first quarter of the year, with multifamily completions rising 36 percent year-over-year and starts and permits growing by 25 percent and 2.5 percent, respectively.
However, reflective of the housing market, the condo component of starts (about one-third of total starts) has continued to tumble, falling from its peak performance of 54 percent in the second quarter of 2006. This has made for a deepened pool of shadow rentals. At mid-year, about 11.7 million homes were being used as rentals, bypassing the previous high-tide mark of 11.5 million in 1995.
Asking rents increase by 1 percent during the second quarter, compared with the 1.2 percent growth rate achieved in the second quarter of last year. Year over year, asking rents rose by 4.4 percent. The growing use of concessions, primarily in the Sun Belt states, which are flooded with shadow stock, will continue to cool effective rent gains through the remainder of the year.
