Do you know which update it was? Have you signed up for the Insider Preview, for instance? Have you tried any of the solutions where this has been a problem before? – Rowland Shaw♦ Aug 14 '15 at 10:57
If you're talking about whole software update, then it is normal, I updated my Lumia 520 few months back and it took a complete day as I had multiple software updates, So what I did was I kept it downloading the updates. Prior to that I made sure that Wi-Fi was working properly and kept my phone at charging during the process [I don't know whether, it should be kept at charging or not? But earlier also tried updating my phone but I couldn't, then my friend suggested this and it worked] and I also cleared a huge amount of memory space as whole software and / or OS update take much space and tim – user3546 Aug 18 '15 at 0:01

Against Mr. Rogers
If one thing holds this country together it is our love of Mr. Rogers. Old and young. Liberal and conservative. We all love the man. The Trolley. The Neighborhood of Make-Believe. Speedy delivery. All these things were a part of my childhood and those of most people that grew up in the USA. But it is the man behind it all that we all love. Mr. Fred Rogers. His gentle spirit. His love for kids. His patience. And most of all his daily reminder that we are all special. He liked us just the way were are.
Everyone loves Mr. Rogers. Everyone except Mr. Ungit. Welcome to Mr. Ungit's Neighborhood.
In Mr. Ungit's Neighborhood, I remind kids that they are not special. They are one of 7.6 billion people. A good chunk of those people grow up to be unpleasant asses. Most will turn out very average. Some will turn out to be monsters. At age five of whenever you are watching that trolley go around that track, there is no way to say which one of these people you will be. And if you think that just by your nature you are special, you are wrong.
Now, if you think Mr. Ungit's Neighborhood will ruin kids, stay with me for a moment. What happens when you tell an average kid that he is special? Well, he expects to be treated as special. Any sort of criticism comes as a shock. Further, his drive to become special will be noticeably absent. Why work your ass off to be special when you already are special? There is something terribly unhealthy about everyone going around thinking they are special. We are all special? Really? If you are special like everyone else is special, doesn't that make you not special?
I think that kids will be helped more by giving them an honest lay of the land. It is better to say, "Listen pal, mom and dad love you. God loves you. But no one else is going to love you unless you are lovable. You have to act a certain way. You have to take responsibility for your life. You have to do the right thing when no one is looking. And if you want to be special, you better do something special. Learn an instrument well. Study hard. Learn to speak well. Read a ton. Something. But you get no participation trophies in life. No one will clap for the guy that did nothing exceptional in life.
And.... that is okay. If you turn out not to be president or a famous author, that is okay. Most people won't. That is not the goal of life anyway. God is no respecter of persons. If you live a non-special life but love God and your neighbors, you will be better off in the end than a lot of celebrities. Don't take your lack of specialness to be a sign of failure or that something is wrong. Take it as the most likely outcome of life on this planet filled with 7.6 billion people. It's okay.
Mr. Rogers seemed like a nice guy. But I don't think it is nice to brainwash kids to think something completely false about the world around them. So....Hi neighbor, you are not special.
Note to any PBS Executives Reading: Yes, I will accept any offer to produce this show!

Gestalt Therapy in Wheat Ridge, CO
Have you ever felt as if you had something lingering around, but you can't quite put your finger on it? Maybe this thing feels unfinished or perhaps you keep finding yourself spinning in circles trying to navigate a relationship or a major decision in life? Maybe you even call it 'adulting.' This is actually far more common than you may think. Often in life, we are faced with decisions that we often refuse to answer. This can leave you feeling isolated and confused for much of the journey.
What is gestalt therapy?
Gestalt therapy is a modality in which one is offered the ability to tune into the here and now of life. Often in life, it becomes easier to allow all of life's ailments to be lumped into one, rather than to give proper attention to the dominating need. It is an innate human ability to catastrophize, leaving one to worry about all the things! Fortunately, you can eliminate the worry and stress and anxiety with the support of a professional. Next thing you know, you'll be adulting better than your parents.
What's more important is gestalt therapy is also a way of life. When one enters into therapy with a gestaltist, they enter into a new way of seeing many of life's dynamics. One thing is for sure no matter what generation you come from, sometimes it feels as if we're left at the threshold of adulthood and forced to engage alone. In gestalt therapy, we emphasize choice rather than relying on habit. Rather than believing the mantra, 'Adulting is for millennials who cannot function in society', using gestalt therapy principles of awareness, we ask, 'how do you want to function in society?' No matter your age, if you learn the skill of enhancing choice into your life, you'll live a much happier and more fulfilling life.
What to expect in gestalt therapy.
With so many alternative healing methods out there to help us navigate life's stressors, and anxious confrontations around just about every corner, how are we to know who or what way is best for healing? When adulting, you are the best judge of character for your life. Let's face it, you've come this far. Your parents might have helped instill great values in you, but now it's your turn to begin the journey of harnessing your personal values. The support offered through gestalt therapy will bring awareness to your strengths, all the while, giving reverence to the choices in life that keep you stagnant. Let's be honest now, no one engages in the act of adulting alone.
My personal journey through therapy, and still continued growth, has informed who I am as a person and as a therapist. It's the notion of living a gestalt lifestyle I illuminated earlier. To support someone in gestalt therapy is to see the person as an autonomous being who is capable of making decisions in life. Embracing this notion tightly allows any one person the freedom and respect to be seen as a courageous person. Hence they are seen as being capable of influencing his or her mental health.
How a depth-focused psychotherapy approach can help with many struggles.
A wide range of ailments come through the door of a psychotherapist. Adulting, depression, anxiety, life struggles, marriage difficulty, and relationship disconnection are among a few of the most common. A common thread that weaves the tapestry of mental illness together is suffering. Suffering is an individual affair. Just because there are common occurrences of individual suffering, does not mean that popular approaches that support suffering will be the preferred method. It can also be argued that trying to fit a patient into a mainstream paradigm is far more dangerous than the ailment they brought through the door.
In my efforts to help support growth after much of the suffering clients often report, I rely on being able to help the individual tune into the here-and-now of everyday life.
Where do life's answers come from anyway?
All too often, I find far more people think they have the answers to all of life's problems, rather than actually having the answers. Evidenced-based empirical approaches cannot answer questions such as "Do I leave my partner" or "Should I leave my job" or even, "Why the hell is adulting so damn hard!" Gestalt therapy offers a clearer picture of what holds us back, in regard to questions like this. Lives cannot be measured against one or the other. Family norms need to be challenged to live healthier lives. Changes become fearful and overwhelming when rejected, repressed, or ignored. As we begin to understand how we've ingested our cultural upbringings to a detrimental level, we begin to see the freedom of life and deepen our understanding that adulting is probably much easier than we anticipated. To honor the fear in the overwhelming situation of dramatic life changes honors the beauty of what it means to be a human. This is especially relevant when considering significant life changes.
How I can help you through Gestalt therapy.
If you are in a place in life where you are feeling a sense of adulting is too much and beginning to feel as if you cannot overcome this, chances are you would benefit from working with a gestalt therapist. To begin the journey, start with documenting your dreams. If you have any waking images, write them down as well. Be open to trusting in yourself. Then, give me a call. I can help you to determine the next path and even provide information on the next step.
Call me to begin to begin to loosen the grip adulting has on you. Let's figure out, together, how you can live the life you want.
Son. Husband. Father. Psychotherapist.

Songs of Joy or Cries for Help?
Good news and bad news and yeah:
Some became fools through their rebellious ways and suffered affliction because of their iniquities. They loathed all food and drew near the gates of death. Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. He sent out his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave. Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind. Let them sacrifice thank offerings and tell of his works with songs of joy. — Psalm 107:17-22
Writing on that paragraph in Disciplines 2018, page 88, Yale University's Willie James Jennings says —
"We can find ourselves in pits so deep and dark that we cannot even manage our escape; at those times we can remember what God has done for us in the past.
"Sometimes others remind us of what God has done for them or we remind others.
"Those who have experienced God's redemption must speak of it often.
"We join in the throng of those who 'tell of God's deeds with songs of joy.'"
— Where are you today?
In a grave as Psalm 107 puts it?
Or is this a day to "remind others" of how faithful God is?
What exactly is going on between you and our Lord today?
In the words of those early Methodists, "How is it with your soul?"
Take some time with your answer; you're worth the effort…Christ Jesus said so, with his life and death and resurrection.
And may your Palm Sunday be a blessed one!

What happens when three friends get together and start talking trash? Every once in a while a company is born. Allied Alloys dealt in high-end scrap metal, like aerospace and surgical grade scrap. Their position was that they knew within 99.99% what was contained in the scrap as they collected it. This is critically important as there can be no impurities in the metal used to build a jetliner that will be traveling 600+ miles per hour at an altitude of 25,000 feet. Any impurities could make a significant difference in the performance of the plane. They had a good business going and wanted to make it better.
They called unleaded for helping building a brand that would propel them from a local to national player. Ironically enough, their brand started out on a scrap of paper, me and Bob Lamons getting into a scrap over what's a good idea and what's not. Some hard work, some compromising and a commitment to excellence created that brand from scratch.
What came to life that afternoon was a simple message reflecting their positioning paired with clean visuals — unheard of in the scrap metals business — that did indeed push Allied Alloys to the next level.

The purpose of this project is to encourage students to build digital citizenship, explore scientific discoveries, develop public speaking proficiency and increase their ability to use appropriate digital presentation tools.
Through out the project students in multimedia classes will use technology to enhance learning, build writing skills, identify important inventions of the last three centuries, become well-informed digital citizens and increase their public speaking abilities.
What will be done with my students
The anticipated Common Core National Standards emphasizes the need for students to be savvy researchers, use complex texts to problem solve and to have good presentation skills. Students will focus on scientific discoveries/inventions from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries through out this project and learn about primary and secondary sources, website evaluation, plagiarism and writing tools.
Being a safe and an informed digital citizen is a much-needed skill for teens. First students will research inventions that had a significant impact on society. Through their research, students in multimedia classes will learn about famous creators across history with a focus on the impact of the invention on society and how these creators protected their work from being stolen or copied by others. As students learn about historical inventions they will uncover copyright and fraudulent reproduction of famous inventions and make comparisons to the same types of copyright violations in todays society.
Using print biographies, websites and books about inventions students will research creators and learn about their work along with the historical time period. Next, students will be introduced to the concept of primary and secondary sources of information. Students gain an understanding about different types of sources. For instance a primary source is a first hand account, (speeches, a piece of or picture of art, a drawings from the time, a sculpture, a written musical score, an interview of a person from the time period); all qualify as valid primary sources. Secondary sources are pieces of information attained through research, from a textbook, a non-fiction book, the Internet, or an expert in the field. The new Common Core standards require students to be able to distinguish between primary and secondary sources and choose quality information to reference in their writing.
In addition to learning about resources students will identify a criteria for valid information both on the Internet and in text. As students research famous inventors the focus will shift to the validity of the sources. Using the guide The 5 Ws of Web Evaluation, by Kathy Schrock and an evaluation tool for print materials, students will develop a keen sense of quality resources in all formats.
After students research creators in history and learn to identify quality sources, they will be introduced to forms of copyright violations and plagiarism that happen well before their time. In learning about these violations, students will begin to understand that plagiarism is not something that happened with the invention of the Internet and stealing work whether from a famous inventor or an everyday person has been going on for centuries. Students will understand and be able to identify plagiarism as they learn ways to avoid copyright infractions themselves.
This project will help my students to understand that downloading music from the Internet, coping written work, using graphics or art without giving credit to the creator is a copyright violation, plagiarism and a form of stealing. Next the focus will switch to writing as students will practice paraphrasing and the use of online citation engines to help them cite their resources using in-text citations.
The end product will be a student created and narrated presentation including both a visual display and a multimedia presentation. The visual display can be in the form of a model of a famous creators work or a model of a primary source (speech, sculptor, drawing, painting )
The digital presentation can be a website, podcast, slide presentation or movie project of a famous creator in history. Each project will include information about the inventors life/ time period, primary and secondary sources of information, the impact the invention had on society, reference to information about possible copied/pirated works and a complete bibliography of all resources used. The websites and students created models will be displayed/bookmarked in the school media center. The movie and podcast presentations will be shared with the school science classrooms and played on the morning news show and in the media center on a loop.
Incorporating the latest technology, hands on models and project based learning into this innovative approach of using scientific inventions from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries to explore plagiarism, primary/secondary sources, evaluating resources and promoting responsible use information will help students to become informed digital citizens.
Benefits to my students
This program will spark my students interest to not only explore inventions and scientific discovery but also to investigate informational text. Students will look reading about inventors and searching for invention frauds/copies like a detective. This project will aid in increasing students reading level on Accelerated Reader and FAIR Reading tests as well as helping them to build reading stamina for the longer sections of the FCAT or CCSS reading exams. In addition, students will become more aware of intellectual property and ways to avoid plagiarism.
Student research of famous inventors of the past will take them through an exploration of creators in history. In addition this program will help students to identify quality resources, forms of plagiarism and copyright violations in other time periods. Students will make connections between the inventors of the past, current day creators and violations in plagiarism and copyright through time. Through this project students will increase their ability to evaluate information on the Internet and in print for validity and quality.
The technology component of this project promotes excitement about reading while supporting essential 21st century skills and Common Core Standards This program will significantly change my students attitude towards reading, plagiarism, web evaluation and writing.

Firstly, I wanted to share my finished mini quilt from Sharon Burgess' book, English Paper Piecing, Quilting on the Go (AFFILIATE LINK). This book was a gift and I have totally loved making this project. It was a great opportunity to work with some different EPP shapes and I love the finished mini quilt.
Secondly, I thought I would talk about experimenting with new techniques. When I first starting quilting I was so excited to make actual quilts that for every new technique I tried, I wanted to end up with a finished quilt. This was great for building my own stash of quilts and also for gifting quilts to others. However, as time has gone on and I have filled my own house with quilts (rough guess about 15 in my house at present) I have really started to see the benefits of trying out techniques on a smaller scale.
I often make mini quilts, bags and other household items to try out new techniques without ending up with a stash of orphan blocks. I like to do this for a few reasons:
- Making a quilt using good quality fabric costs money. I don't have an endless stash to raid and even though I often have lots of fabric on hand I always end up buying more supplies. Don't get me wrong, I love making new quilts and shopping for fabrics but it is not always something I can afford.
- I just don't love every new method I try. No one probably does. At least when you are making something small if you discover that you don't like a technique you stand a chance of finishing the piece and stopping it ending up in the pile of WIPs.
- Making smaller projects is quicker and sometimes a quick finish is just what you need. I often turn to a smaller project if my sewing mojo has slowed down as sometimes completing a new project is just what I need to spur me on to complete a larger work in progress.
Tell me, how do you like to experiment with different and new techniques? Full size quilt or mini projects – I would love to hear!

Visit the sweetest attraction in St. Augustine! The Whetstone Chocolate Factory is a family-owned confectionary that specializes in making small-batch chocolates. What started as a small ice cream store has transformed into one of the most beloved stores in town for visitors and locals alike. Find out what you need to know to take a Whetstone Chocolate Factory Tour during your stay with Agustin Inn!
A Brief History on the Whetstone Chocolate Factory
The Whetstone Chocolate Factory started as a passion project for Henry and Esther Whetstone. After the success of their ice cream parlor, Tedi's Olde Tyme Ice Cream (which is still open to this day!), they started experimenting with selling their homemade fudge. The industrious couple took a methodical approach to their confectionary ventures. They decided to learn as much about chocolate, from the cocoa beans onward, so that they could create the best possible product. It worked! Since opening, they have had to move locations twice to keep up with the demand.
Today, Whetstone Chocolate Factory continues to be a family affair with Henry and Esther's daughter, Virginia, running the factory. With her experience in the factory and vast knowledge, Virginia has maintained the standard of excellence that we've come to expect. Visitors can head to their 10,000-square-foot factory to enjoy a tour and some samples of the famous chocolate.
Take a Whetstone Chocolate Factory Tour
Whether you're a dedicated chocoholic or you don't have much of a sweet tooth, you'll garner a new appreciation during your tour. Whetstone's chocolatiers will take you through the chocolate-making process before teaching you just how to taste and appreciate an expertly made piece. You'll enjoy a four-tiered tasting which includes dark, milk, and white chocolates. The tour is just $8 for adults and $5.50 for children. You can reserve your spot, which we suggest if you're visiting over the weekend as these tours are often fully booked. If you'd prefer a more private experience, we recommend that you visit during the week. You'll also have an easier time reserving a spot. The tour is accessible to guests who use wheelchairs or mobility aids.
Stay at the Agustin Inn
What's even sweeter than the chocolates you'll taste while on the Whetstone Chocolate Factory tour? Spending your vacation in a gorgeous historic bed and breakfast smack-dab in the center of St. Augustine. Agustin Inn has the amenities, guest rooms, helpful staff, and convenient location needed to make your stay with us one that you'll remember for years to come. Add on to that a delicious daily breakfast, a 24-hour coffee station with tea and hot chocolate, and the treats available in our lobby, and you may never want to leave!
Consider adding our Classic Romance Package to your booking. Just in case you didn't get enough sweets, our package includes a half-dozen chocolate-covered strawberries, as well as a half-dozen assorted roses, a private horse and carriage ride from the Inn, and a gift certificate to one of the best restaurants in town.
Check our availability and book today! We look forward to having you.

Patty Fleur (パティ・フルール Pati Furuuru?) is a new protagonist introduced in the PlayStation 3 port of Tales of Vesperia. She is capable of using guns and is even equally skilled at wielding a knife. She is a young pirate girl looking for the lost treasures of the legendary pirate Aifread. Another of her goals is to recover her memories.
Appearance and Personality
Patty has light skin, blue eyes, and blond hair braided into two ponytails tied with purple ribbons. Her attire is reminiscent of a ship's captain, consisting of a pirate's hat, a matching coat, and boots. She also wears a pair of binoculars around her neck. Patty is a young girl with no memories of her past, and seeks to recover them by finding the legendary treasure, the Maris Stella.
At first she has a very childish personality, making jokes and irritating characters, but after she finds out about her past and her long lost friend, Seifer, she gains a more serious attitude. She has a crush on Yuri Lowell, and has great admiration for Flynn Scifo. She loves cooking, and even has a few exclusive sidequests related to it.
Fighting Style
Patty's gameplay revolves around fighting stances, referred as "Forms", which affects how her normal attacks and Artes operate, as well increasing her physical or magical power depending on which form she is using. This makes Patty the character with highest number of variety in attacks in the entire game. Most of her passive skills are focused on improving the performance of her forms; she also has two skills that reflect her feelings for Yuri and respect for Flynn, increasing her performance in battle when they are in the party.
Patty's mystic arte is called Summon Friends, where she can summons characters and monsters to help the party during battle, like Mieu, who can breathe fire, and Quickie, who recovers TP and OVL. Many of her techniques and spells are based on chance, though certain skills and actions can lower risk of negative or unwanted effects.
- In the original Xbox 360 version of Tales of Vesperia, a pirate hat in the lighthouse keeper's house in Capua Torim hints of Patty's existence with "Pa..." written on it.
- In the Playstation 3 and Definitive Edition versions, the player can find more about Patty backstory after completing her arc and visiting the lighthouse.
- If Karol Capel uses the costume for Keroro, the main protagonist of the Sgt. Frog series, Patty's quotes at the end of battle changes randomly to match the speaking style of Natsumi Hinata, the lead female protagonist of the same series. Both Natsumi and Patty share the same voice actress in the original Japanese dubbed version of the series.
- In the Playstation 3 and Definitive Editions, Patty serves as a replacement for Tokunaga as the pilot of the Fiertia ship.
- In Tales of Berseria, the store run by Van Aifread's pirates is called the "Chat & Patty Student Store".

Years ago, the federal government deregulated utilities. When they did this, they created monopolies, whether or not this was intentional is not important. The point is that monopolies control utility markets for a vast majority of Americans; this is a fact. But not everywhere, I will use Texas as an example: Texas not only has an independent electric grid, they also have a consumer energy choice market place, for utilities. I'm sure some are asking what that is and how it affects them. Well. we will go over this.
Consumer energy choice is simple. It allows you, the consumer, to purchase utilities like natural gas and more importantly, electricity, on the open market much like you would buy car insurance or long-distance phone service. This allows consumers to pick a power provider with the best KWH price and/or best service. In most areas, consumers only have one choice of who they can purchase electricity from. Some areas have coops that work well, but most are independent utility companies.
Utility costs have risen year after year because of rate hikes. These hikes due to a number of reasons; most consumers believe these reasons are understandable and pay without question. What other choice do they have, right? Wrong! They do have choices and recourse. Here are some examples of rate hike reasons:
- Fuel delivery surcharge
- Maintenance of plants or delivery systems
- Upgrades
- Forced outage(s)
Here is the reality: When the grid was built it was heavily subsidized by the federal government. Most upgrades and major maintenance still is. Any fuel price increase is tax deductible, as are all of the other things listed above, so now their tax liability went down and they save a ton. Are your utility costs tax deductible? Most times they are not. Energy choice helps alleviate that because consumers can say "I'm not paying for another rate hike; I'm switching companies." Imagine that, an actual choice. So my point is that the taxpayer and the consumer are the same people; so we are paying for the same thing twice.
How many people know that the federal government knows exactly how much it costs to make and distribute electricity? And that it actually owns a utility company and has since 1933? The Tennessee Valley Authority is a wholly-owned government utility company that sold 152.3 billion kilowatt hours of electricity in 2017 and has a total capacity of 169,000 gigawatt hours. Yes, the federal government sells you, the taxpayers, electricity. At a time in our country when every penny counts in a household budget, when people are forced between buying food or paying for electricity.
All of this being said, we as libertarians need to work together to promote free market ideals like consumer energy choice. It is just one of many we can come together on. We have market data, we have case studies and we have markets that have implemented it with great success. We the people have a right to purchase our goods and services where we choose; not where the government says we should.

The Castle Group is a marine engineering and underwater construction firm that's been doing work ranging from bridge and pier inspections to submarine power cable repairs to design and build projects in the hydro-marine space for over 30 years.
Led by Bill and Janet Castle, a husband and wife team, they've done work up and down the Eastern Mid-Atlantic. Sometimes even further afield. Innovative in their approach, they strive to keep things cost-effective and practical.
"Bill's mantra has always been to keep it simple," shares Janet. "Engineers can tend to over complicate things. Bill is straightforward and pragmatic. Contractors love him. They just want to get the job done."
The business side of the work, however, isn't quite as simple as Janet explains.
The Captain Driving the Ship
"For a long-time Bill was the captain driving the ship. He had the pipeline, the backlog, and the vision but he had a lot in his head. Very little was written down. And I let him do a lot of the leading. A few years ago when I learned about "Scaling Up" I realized that we needed help. We needed to do things differently, but he and I weren't aligned. I was outspoken in my opinions, but not secure."
Bill has accomplished a great deal over the years. Starting over three decades ago, with a two-year drafting degree from Penn State and a little experience in the field, he applied for and got a job as a Burlington County Bridge Engineer. Scuba started as a hobby. After years of working for the county, he saw that there was an unmet need in the market for qualified diving Engineers to do underwater inspections. So he started the business, W.J. Castle PE and Associates in 1983 as a structural and civil engineering firm. In the beginning, Bill was doing bridge inspections with a friend as his right hand.
After 15 years of work with his own clients, Bill saw much that could be improved. The lack of professionalism in the marine construction side, and how companies kept (or didn't keep) their equipment maintained just to start. Once again, Bill knew that they could do better. Janet had come into the business a few years earlier, although raising kids, managing the demands of a growing business and juggling work priorities was a constant struggle. But that didn't stop them. In 1997, Hydro-Marine Construction Company, Inc. was launched.
Diving Into the Deep End
Business, especially in the construction sector, proved to be unpredictable. Some years were good, others weren't. They were dependent on the RFP / low bid process for much of their work and it could take months to land a project. Finding qualified engineers who could also dive commercially was another challenge. Their accounting firm helped them to find a solid bookkeeper and manage their tax burden appropriately, but Janet knew that it wasn't enough.
"Haefele, Flanagan gave us good insights, recommendations and referrals. They were always direct and matter of fact and encouraged us to put money away during good years. We hadn't ever really looked at our numbers as a team and they also pushed us to increase our gross margin. But we just didn't know how to get there."
Then, seven years ago, after attending a Scaling Up briefing put on by CEO Think Tank® that Haefele, Flanagan held, she learned that there was a more robust approach to running a business. Janet decided to take the plunge into the Rockefeller Habits "water" and up their business game.
That was when the real work began.
"Bill wasn't bought in to using an outside consultant, but I knew that I needed help at a minimum," she says simply.
While Bill was in charge of Sales and Business Development as well as the engineering, Janet was running the back office, operations and overseeing the financials. At the time they had about 15 people and a team of subcontractors.
"Starting with one on one coaching to get my head around my roles and responsibilities as President of the construction arm made sense. After working on our plan with you, I understood that to really get traction, I needed to get Bill and the team involved. So I convinced him to make the time to create our One Page Strategic Plan™ (OPSP) together. That's what really started to make a difference in the company."
Having the Right Crew
Janet will freely admit that while she loves to dig into the numbers, people are not her strong suit.
"Learning how to be a better manager of people is probably one of my biggest takeaways from the work that we've done," Janet shares. "You really need to be clear with your expectations, ask questions and check to confirm their understanding. You can't just say something and assume that your team has heard it. Even when they're in the room and nodding their heads," she says with a grin.
She and the team also learned the importance of boundaries in the past few years. "People may be a fit for a time but not forever. And while your people are your most important and hardest to replace resource, they're also a crap shoot if you don't manage them properly."
Learning to Row Together
Doing the planning as a leadership team also created a stronger and more cohesive company.
"The OPSP™ and the Quarterly meetings had us looking at our profitability on a regular basis, setting targets, and assigning accountability for meeting those targets. A lot of our work initially in the Financial arena was just getting the basics in place. Undertaking job costing, implementing A/R and A/P processes, doing Cash Flow projections. But having the regular meeting rhythm where we carved out time to address issues and make decisions as a leadership team made us more focused and responsible."
With a laugh, Janet acknowledges that accountability was probably the biggest hurdle that she and Bill faced. While her team had said that they wanted to be accountable, when they finally were given clearly defined scorecards and had to stay on top of their numbers and make their targets, there was push back.
"We've come a long way. Now, members of the team who are accountable for the goals, know the priorities and raise red flags if there's going to be an issue meeting the target. It's like magic, but really it's just people knowing and doing their jobs. Not complaining and stamping their feet," she adds with a grimace.
Gaining Momentum
Now the controller has access to the pipeline. It's captured and updated every other week and is not just in Bill's head. Cash Flow projections allow the team to look ahead and predict what's coming down the pike. Bill and Rick, the Senior Engineer, have regular meetings with their teams to review work in progress and work that's on deck. They have the information that allows them to be proactive now, when before they were reactive.
Their team of diving engineers has been brought into the project management process to help the company stay on top of profitability numbers. They're also routinely meeting with prospective customers, putting on lunch and learns to help others in the industry keep up their CEU's and doing talks on what's new and innovative in the hydro-marine space.
Both Bill and Janet readily admit that the industry will always have its ups and downs. Construction can be notoriously unpredictable (especially marine construction). The team has pulled together, however, to ensure that Bill and Rick are out in the market, making the right connections and keeping the lines of communication open with their customer base.
Building a Stronger Vessel
The Castle's have always valued the loyalty of their team. It took a commitment to building something greater than themselves, however, when they decided to make the investment in the team's growth and development.
"With our focus on getting more work from semi-private companies like the utilities and the private sector, we now have much more reliability and predictability in the project stream," Janet explains. "And with the roadmap of the plan and better projections and estimates, we can see where the gaps are and work to fill them proactively."
The results? Over the past few years their top line has increased by 35%, but more importantly, they've stabilized their Gross Margin in both companies,
"Simply put we've got significant predictability now," Janet says. "In our profit, our pipeline and our work."
And in an industry that's rife with uncertainty – from environmental conditions to weather delays to scheduling nightmares, that's a huge win.

Qatar Airways: Next stop – Seychelles
New airline connections equal new opportunities for Seychelles.
New airline connections equal new opportunities for Seychelles. Qatar Airways is an airline that has announced that effective mid-December of this year, they will be launching seven weekly flights to the Seychelles from Doha.
At the IFTM Top Resa Tourism Trade Fair in Paris this week, Qatar Airways used their display pop-up banners at the entrance walkways to the fair and also at their stand to showcase Seychelles as the new destination they will be opening daily flights to.
"Seychelles is dependent on tourism for their survival. They have done all the right things in the area of protection of their environment and in the construction of a good hotel infrastructure, but air access to main tourism source markets has always been the point raised by the island's private sector trade. By the end of this year, we shall be having 11 new weekly flights over and above what we have already. This is music to the ears of every tourism-related businesses of the Seychelles," said Minister Alain St.Ange, the island's Minister of Tourism and Culture, when he was in Paris earlier this week.
Sherin Francis, the CEO of the Tourism Board of Seychelles, and Bernadette Willemin, the Seychelles Tourism Board's Paris-based Director for Europe, both met with Qatar Airways (see photo) as they discussed the way forward for Seychelles tourism.

An emergency meeting was held on the contentious issue of Kashmir in Surrey on Monday night.
Organized at the Jamea mosque on September 9, the meeting was called in response to the current situation in Indian-occupied Kashmir, where thousands of troops have been deployed and civil liberties have been suspended by the right wing Hindu nationalist Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) government.
Among those in attendance were three federal Liberal MPs - Ken Hardie, Sukh Dhaliwal and Randeep Singh Sarai – who came on behalf of the Canadian government to listen to the concerns of the participants.
On August 5, the Indian government unilaterally scrapped special rights given to the state of Kashmir under Article 370 of the Indian constitution, arresting local leaders on the pretext of maintaining public safety.
The BJP government claims that the act was necessary to stop terrorism in the only Muslim dominated state of India. Since then, Kashmir has been turned into an open jail, communication channels such as internet have been shut, and leaders fighting for freedom and autonomy have been detained indefinitely. These include political figures and activists who have been advocating for peaceful resolution of the problem of Kashmir, where people have been struggling for right to self-determination.
The organizers of the meeting said that the Canadian government has failed to step in and raise its voice against growing atrocities in Kashmir. They included local Kashmiris who have collected close to 3,000 signatures on postcards addressed to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau asking for his intervention. They handed over some of these cards to the three MPs, who assured the gathering these would be passed on to Trudeau.
Those present also confronted the MPs , seeking to know why the Canadian government hasn't done enough to send a strong message to the Indian government, when their constituents have been holding rallies and demonstrations in Metro Vancouver and elsewhere in Canada.
Though Canadian Minister for Global Affairs Christiya Freeland has issued a statement, it wasn't critical of the actions of the BJP government, according to Kashmiri activist Auzeb Manzoor who spoke on the occasion. Moninder Singh who spoke on behalf of the BC Sikh Societies felt the same. He pointed out that the blockade of Kashmir is part of the same pattern under which minorities continue to be attacked with impunity all across India.
Others in the gathering included Federal New Democratic candidate Annie Ohana, who was very vocal on the issue. While she reiterated the statement made by her party condemning the Indian government, none of the local New Democratic MLAs showed up, despite the fact that Surrey has four NDP MLAs of Indian origin. However, MLA Rachna Singh had sent her message of solidarity. The New Democratic government in BC remains silent on the issue, citing this to be a federal matter.

Watch Boygenius Cover The Killers
December 4, 2018
When we first heard that Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus were coming together to create the trio Boygenius, expectations for what these three tremendous songwriters could accomplish were high. And we have not been disappointed. While touring in support of their Boygenius EP, they've treated fans to solo performances as well as a culmination of the trio performing from the new EP.
They've also added unexpected covers such as Dixie Chicks' "Cowboy Take Me Away" and now The Killers' "Read My Mind." Check out both performances below:

Romans 1:16 – For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
In this verse the Greek word "Soteria," is used for "Salvation." It includes not only forgiveness of sin, but also healing, deliverance, protection, prosperity, and to make whole.
Now look at James 5:14, 15 – Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith shall save (sozo) the sick.
The Greek word for save in this verse is "Sozo" and is used with "Soteria" to denote salvation and deliverance from suffering. Healing is part of our salvation. The Gospel is the power of God unto salvation; unto our healing; unto our financial prosperity; and unto our deliverance. We are made whole!
To be healthy has a lot more to do with what we feed our spirit. Do you know that when you are at peace on the inside, that it will boost your immune system? Look at Proverbs 17:22 – A merry heart doeth good like a medicine, but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
We look too many times for a pill to fix the problem or even eating certain foods, but if we'd pay a little more attention to the spiritual root of things, we just might discover some things about how God works.
Isaiah told us in 26:3 how to stay at peace on the inside: Thou (God) will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee.
This is something I've had to train myself in. Any time pressure comes from things out of my control, I recall what the Bible says about that situation. We then begin to build our faith and trust in knowing God said He is working it all out for my good. Why? Because I love God and I'm called according to His purpose – so I trust Him (Romans 8:28).
So when you need healing, go find all the verses that say we are healed; we were healed; look at all the times Jesus healed others in scripture. Build yourself up and believe it because God said it!

Chimney Cleaning Tip
If you have a woodstove, it should be cleaned every year or so. You can hire a Chimney Sweep to do it for you which is great if you can afford it and don't want to get up on the roof. You can purchase a chimney brush with the fiberglass extensions and clean it yourself. A more simpler method is to get a long tow chain, remove the chimney top, lower the chain into the pipe as far as you can and make circular motions for a minute or two. You will hear the creosote breaking loose and falling down the pipe. In the older woodstoves, it will fall into the fire box. In the newer stoves, you will need to remove the black pipe closest to the stove and suck the debris out with a shopvac. Good Luck! "You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try." –Beverly Sills

These are the dramatic moments armed police swooped on Welsh Row in Nantwich, caught on camera by a sharp-eyed Nantwichnews contributor.
The busy street was sealed off as armed officers reacted to an incident which started in Crewe town centre.
It ended with arrests of two men after a taxi was surrounded by police at the junction of Welsh Row and St Anne's Lane.
A Cheshire Police spokeswoman said officers were called to two separate reports of men behaving suspiciously in Crewe town centre.
"Initial reports suggested that one of the men may have been in possession of a firearm.
"A thorough search was made of the area by appropriately trained officers and the decision was made to stop a taxi, which was in Welsh Row in Nantwich, for the purposes of a search.

The website io9.com have posted news on two leaked pictures from the Doctor Who 2009 finale set, which will be The Tenth Doctor's swansong. The photo is of David Tennant with two guests actors on set.
Yes, that's right, John Simm is returning to Doctor Who as The Master (looks like The Master's opting for a new look with the blonde hair). Also on photo 1, on the left, is Timothy Dalton in full Time Lord attire as a Time Lord dignitary or High Councillor! So either The Doctor goes back in time to when the Time Lords were alive (unlikely - you know, "time-locked" and all), or they were never actually destroyed.
However, my theory is that The Master might have gone back in time and done something so that he can resurrect the Time Lords or simply bring them back in some way to help him. Also, from photo 2, what on Earth are those barrels or cannisters for?!
What do you think of these pictures?
Please comment.

Letters To The Editor April 17, 2010
Open and transparent government is the best government. Chris Slusser, Republican county board member from Wood River, has proposed placing the Madison County checkbook online. Using Microsoft Excel or a similar program makes this easy to do. Dupage County in Illinois, with over a million residents and a budget of over $500 million, has done this at no additional cost to the taxpayers. They have been able to work out questions concerning privacy.
Actually, there are some cost savings. Personnel time and expense and paper cost will be reduced for Freedom of Information requests made to the county to obtain information.
Alan Dunstan has long been an advocate of more open and transparent government. This is just another step in achieving that goal. Rick Faccin, Madison County auditor, has stated he thinks it is a good, workable proposal.
I would encourage you to call or write Chairman Dunstan and/or your local county board member and ask them put the checkbook online as soon as possible.
Chris Slusser should be commended for doing his research, making this proposal and helping to save money and make government more open.
It appears that Madison County voters will have two choices for sheriff this fall. Choices are always a good thing where elections are concerned and I, like most voters, appreciate choices. In this case however, the choice is easy.
As many people know, I have been a part of state law enforcement for all or parts of four decades. Beginning my career in 1971 as a trooper, and ending it last year as director of the Illinois State Police, I have borne witness to thousands of police officers throughout Illinois and our nation. I have been an active member of the Illinois Sheriffs Association, the Illinois Chiefs Association and the International Chiefs Assoc. I have served on national committees in Washington, D.C. and small "town hall" meetings throughout Illinois.
During that time period, I have seen few law enforcement professionals with the multiple qualities of Sheriff Bob Hertz. His relentless work ethic and analytic mind when he was investigative commander created the esteemed reputation they enjoy today with the Major Case Squad. His no-nonsense, yet fair and ethical treatment of prisoners has produced high marks from corrections while the patrol function has become a model of efficiency. Madison County Sheriffs Deputies consistently present themselves in a highly professional manner whether they are in uniform or plain clothes.
As a lifelong resident of Madison County and 38-year member of the Sheriffs Department, Bob Hertz has clearly demonstrated his profound dedication to justice, accountability and loyalty to the citizens of our county.
Although we may have a choice this fall, 38 years of proven excellence should make the choice easy. Please join me in voting to keep Bob Hertz as our sheriff.

A recently formed Big Brothers-Big Sisters program for the Newport area is off and running. The program is designed to connect children to adults who serve as their mentors.

Fog surrounded Tim Kampen and Heran Yang as red and blue stage lights dimly reflected off their instruments, Kampen gently drawing his bow across his cello and Yang softly strumming his bass. The two began the show as the seven remaining members of Barrage 8 joined them one at a time onstage on April 21.
"I'm expecting a show," said Sierra Sonora, a senior studying psychology, just before the performance. "I think it's going to be a mix between modern and classical music; it should be fun."
In matching black and rhinestone outfits, along with choreographed hoppin', skippin' and a whole lot of hair whippin', the nine members of Barrage 8 transported the audience inside the John W. Hart Building to China, Russia and the southern United States with their octet of stringed instruments.
It was the ninth member of the group, however, who stole the show. Drummer Kayleigh Moyer performed two drum solos and a "Purple Rain" duet with guitarist Kyle Pudenz that elicited responses from the audience that were unmatched throughout the performance.
Courtney Barfield, a sophomore studying political science, said the performance was "awesome, fun and cool."
After the performance, all nine members of the band were available in the lobby outside the Hart Auditorium to sign autographs, take selfies and chat with their fans.
According to the Barrage 8 website, the group of performers is wrapping up a U.S. tour, with two performances still left in Washington and Oregon.
People who are interested can follow the band on Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat for updates on future performances and links to follow members of Barrage 8.

San Fernando Road
Located adjacent to the LA River and a light rail transit station, San Fernando Road is a study of alternative approaches for the development of a 19-acre parcel for multifamily rental and small-lot single-family housing.
For the project, Assembledge+ prepared a series of land use and site plan options, some of which included adaptive re-use of several existing buildings on the site. In addition to optional density and product type site plan studies, Assembledge+ documented potential development yields for each alternative plan to assist the developer in determining the highest and best use for the property.

I guess when the LTE Network was in testing mode and you were on it enjoying it and speed testing and so on they are now collecting back them money..
I agree with you too that Flows data packages are not customer intuitive. I stopped using Deezer as it makes no sense and has too many restrictions. They should give us the 600MB allocated to Deezer, for us to choose what we want to use it for.

The 3 C's in life: Choice, Chance, Change. You must make the Choice, to take the Chance, if you want anything in life to Change.
Some questions/thoughts (?). I looked back at your speedtest post in the other Thread where you posted your speed results. (http://www.techjamaica.com/forums/sh...885#post799885)
I know you stated that you don't have the issue with Digi SIM. But, as someone mentioned it could be a back end system issue. Also could be that now combined with a setting of some sort on your device is causing a problem. Sounds almost like you would need some kind of debugging app to be able to see what [is occurring] when the credit [is] deducted. Maybe even SignalCheck Lite could glean some info. Someone knowledgeable may be able to deduce something from that Field Service mode screenshot.
I suspect your ability to do Speedtest without data may have opened up something on device and it may still be "testing" even when you don't intend it to. Have you removed the app from your device? Restricted it from using data in permissions? Or have you checked data usage to see which, if not the Speedtest app, is possibly appearing to use data (thus your credit)? Have you considered enabling the setting to cap data usage?
And of course the option we don't always like to hear - Full Factory Reset attempted (backing up data first of course). You can even backup to a PC or Mac using Samsung Smart Switch application on the PC or Mac. EDIT: Also, is there another device you can use temporarily to see if this still occurs?

Or simply change the phone lol... People make some simple things so complicated, obviously their life isn't
With the new digicel pre paid plans nothing else makes sense to me now so I'm cancelling my post paid digicel and pre paid flow sim I'll throw it away and just use one sum instead of 3 lol
You'll be forever on this thread trying to find out what the problem is, if you want the number that bad you can port it to digicel and im pretty sure you won't have any issue with credit and data with digicel (anymore)

Dvorak's Symphony No. 9
Just now listening to Dvorak's "New World" Symphony which has been my favorite for decades. So much so, that recent nostalgic musings have reminded me (I just got my son's report card, more on that later) about a nerd explosion of mine back in 1982 when I moved from Binghamton to Ithaca.
Back then my pop music consumption was eclectic and my classical music knowledge was pretty good for a 10 year old. We had some decent pop records at home, notably the Jackson 5 which got me into their song "ABC" (who knew my father was so funky to own that record?) but when we would drive frequently from Binghamton to Brooklyn to visit my mother's parents (an action I know mightily endorse and would probably do the same if I could) the music in the car came entirely from 8-track tapes of classical music. And Dvorak's 9th was my permanent favorite.
The nostaglia point is to illustrate my immense dorkiness back then. Again, I knew pop music, but I dare say that compared to Dvorak's 9th, pop back in 1982 just couldn't compare. It was all soft-rock and disco for goodness sakes! I am defensive because, in 1982, I had entered a new school in a new city. I had been in Hillel Academy, a Torah U-Mesorah parochial school, and had just entered Northeast Elementary in Ithaca - a public school. And for the 5th grade yearbook, we were all asked what our favorite song was. The most popular ones were "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson (which is great, don't get me wrong) or "Africa" by Toto. But when asked I said "Dvorak's 9th Symphony, 4th Movement."
And you know what, I'm still right!
But I also dare you to find non-pictorial proof of greater dorkiness than having a newly acclimatized Orthodox Jewish keepah-wearing fish-out-of-water-in-public-school 10 year old declare in his 5th grade yearbook, on a page of neo-disco tunes, that his favorite song is - the editorially shortened - "9th Symphony." I guess I'm still ticked that they shortened it, because I actually like Dvorak's 9th better than Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" (which is my second favorite classical ditty).
And, I guess this shows that I'm still a massive nerd. Ah well, at least I get paid for it now. That's the joy of adulthood and the hope of all teenage nerds everywhere - in America, and other Western countries - you will get paid handsomely for being a nerd.

End Semester Nigh
I haven't blogged in a while because I'm working furiously to finish all my papers before the end of the semester. It's coming close... and then I'll be able to relax a bit and sort through all the ideas that have clogged unblogged. In this Fin-de-Siecle push, almost everything has been breaking down except for the overall health of my family (and may it stay that way!). My back has held up (but I did lose a tooth - long story), and compared to last year's hospital saga, this has been a breeze.
One last note, I am now indebted to Endnote that I will need to give it much love in an blog entry soon. It's so amazing, especially when paired with the academic search engines (PDF delivery machines, more like it), that I have through school. I know I'm in the right professional direction when I consider it a valuable professional perk to have access to a full online library.

Boston 'Catastrophic' Water Woes
Right after Motzei Shabbat, my internet connection wasn't working, so it took a bit for us to get the message that there was a 'boil water' emergancy condition for eastern Massachusetts after a 'Catastrophic' water main break. This is not a good way to begin the week. Add onto that the terrorist bomb attempt in Times Square and a children's Tylenol recall, and you got a trifecta of Doom.
I have a few musings on the water subject:

I have a few musings on the water subject:
- After taking a shower last night, bathing myself in e-coli, I realized that I hadn't felt so dirty after 'washing' since I went to the Washington Heights mikvah erev Yom Kippur.
- It's situations like these that we need to recall whenever we feel high-and-mighty about our technical mastery of nature. A busted pipe - a few centimeters gone wrong - will leave 2 million people without potable water.
- Also, this should remind the crunchy green granola types that 'natural' water is deadly.

The film festival will exhibit 1,470 shows of recent 3D blockbusters. Cinépolis has collaborated with global visual technology company RealD Inc. to provide 3D technology for the film festival.
The film festival will take place in Cinépolis theaters equipped with RealD 3D technology.
Cinépolis has also collaborated with Northstar as media partner and Spiritual Yatra.com as associate partner for the festival.
Cinépolis India head – strategic initiatives Devang Sampat said, "The second innings of 3D cinema has begun in India.

With 3rd Dimension, we wish to usher in an era of an even more enhanced 3D experience in India and introduce the cinema lovers in the country to a more superior way to enjoy 3D films in the future."
"RealD is proud to support 3rd Dimension, a showcase of extraordinary movie-making as well as movie experiences. We look forward to this wondering event in bright, realistic and immersive RealD 3D," added RealD VP and general manager Asia Pacific Edman Chan.
The film festival will screen blockbusters such as Fast and Furious 7, The Hobbit, Big Hero 6, Guardians of the Galaxy, Gravity and Avengers: The Age of Ultron for its patrons to re-experience the rush with its superlative 3D features and help them recognise a genuine 3D experience.

Indonesia reports EU to WTO for anti-dumping duties
The Trade Ministry's director for trade security, Ernawati, told reporters yesterday that the government asked the WTO to broker a consultation, or the first stage in its dispute resolution process, with the EU.
Ernawati said that the EU imposed lower a anti-dumping duty on PT Musim Mas and declined to give similar treatment to other companies.
The EU required that Musim Mas, which is based in Medan, North Sumatra, pay a duty of 45.63 euros (US$55.94) per metric tonne of imported fatty alcohols, while requiring other Indonesian producers to pay 80.34 euros.
"We want to discuss, among other things, how the calculation of the dumping margins applies" and the damages to EU businesses, Ernawati said.
The government was upbeat that the WTO would favour Indonesia, Ernawati said, as indicated by the EU's recent decision to give a duty discount to another Indonesian company, PT Ecogreen Oleochemicals.
Indonesia must wait 30 days for the WTO to process its request for a consultation. If unsatisfied by the results, Indonesia can request adjudication of its dispute by a panel in a process that can take up to 60 days.
The EU Council issued anti-dumping duties on imported fatty alcohols from India, Indonesia and Malaysia in November, claiming that the products were sold to the 27-nation bloc under production cost or below their domestic sales prices.
Malaysian fatty alcohols were charged with import duties ranging 35.19 euros to 61.01 euros per tonne, while India was charged 46.98 euros to 86.99 euros.
Fatty alcohols, used in various chemical products such as cosmetics, soaps and shampoos, are derived from palm kernel oil, of which Indonesia is one of the world's largest producers.
Indonesia's fatty alcohols exports topped 17.24 million tonnes and were valued at $22.11 million in 2005. By 2009, those figures had more than doubled to 41.12 million tonnes and $42.73 million, according to the Trade Ministry's data that was used in the EU's investigation of previous dumping allegations.
Fatty alcohols are latest in a series of trade disputes between emerging and developed economies. In the last four months, Brazil, China and India have also initiated trade disputes with world trade's governing body.
Indonesia's request for a WTO consultation is its first since the WTO found in favour of the nation in a dispute with the US over clove cigarettes in April.
In its ruling, the WTO said that a US law on smoking prevention that banned clove cigarettes sales was discriminatory and would require the US to ban flavoured cigarette sales, particularly menthol cigarettes widely produced by American major producers, to be fair.
