Hey both,

Vanessa Cotto asked me to reach out to you with this information, and I believe one or both of you may have already been in contact with Andrew Baron regarding the same thing.

The Ky LPCC board (responsible for LPCA, LPCC, and LPCC-S licensees) has decided to require Supervision Agreements to be filed and approved by the board before an LPCA (licensed professional counselor associate) can practice -- upon a change of employment.

This may affect some counselor candidates in the hiring funnel (for instance, Victoria Jones and Kailee Nolan). I had a conversation with Andrew Baron this morning, as this change in their stance currently is probably going to affect our newest Hazard Ky counselor, Melissa Collins. She and I have a Supervision Agreement on file with the board, but it's still 'pending'. I have asked Melissa to reach out to the board to see if that can be expedited.

I checked and Melissa Collins no longer has contact with her former supervisor, so that's not a temporary solution till the board accepts our filed Supervision Agreement.

Victoria Jones is due to begin onboarding next Monday 16th. I've emailed her a heads-up to try to ascertain if she is currently under someone's supervision.

I'm attaching an FAQ from the LPCC site that pertains to this concern.

Thank you!

Bryan Miller

I've used AOMEIBackupper to make a WinPE bootable flash drive, against the possible future need to restore my IdeaPad 3 using a system image.

I toyed with the IdeaPad 3's BIOS, after figuring out that it requires rapid-pressing of F2 after a restart to enter the BIOS setup.

I have a 32 GB USB drive with Hiren's Boot CD on it. Boots and works fine as a WinPE environment. I can even connect to our home wi-fi.

The clencher, however, is that it has AOMEIBackupper on it, with which I can restore my laptop using an image made with that same software and stored on an old, long-gone laptop's repurposed SSD, a 340 Gb drive housed in a Sabrent USB-powered case.

Now perhaps I'll be diligent enough to take the time to get the same sort of setup working for my primary desktop PC — the one I use all the time for work.

Open text editor and enter this:

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run chr(34) & "C:\Path\To\Your\Batch\File.bat" & Chr(34), 0 Set WshShell = Nothing

Save file with a *.vbs extension and close the text editor.

Double-click the file to run your batch file silently.

This will run the batch file without displaying any output to the screen. The "0" parameter in the command specifies that the batch file should be run silently. If you want to display the output, change the "0" to "1" or "2".

In an elevated command prompt:

FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package~*.mum") DO (DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F")

FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package~*.mum") DO (DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F")

Next do these steps:

Disable Background Apps for all users with Group Policy Editor 1. Enter gpedit.msc into the Run text box by pressing Win + R. 2. Navigate to "Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\App Privacy" 3. Double-click the "Let Windows apps run in the background" policy in the right pane. 4. Select the "Disabled" choice, then select "Apply" and "OK."

Man, OneDrive and Zoom both really hog my PC resources. So, on my work desktop PC I've opted to not start OneDrive with Windows. Additionally, I'm doing some of the things below to see if they break anything and — if not — if they seem to improve the desktop PC's responsiveness. This is a Hewlett-Packard Slim Desktop S01-pF2xxx with 32 Gb of RAM and an Intel Celeron CPU at 3.3 GHz, running on Windows 11 Home OS build 22631.3737 (64-bit).

Step 1: Disable background apps running — requires this step on a Win 11 Home PC.

Good weekend. Good Father's Day. Susan and the girls took to me supper Saturday at Little Taste of Texas. Hannah and Emma gave me Father's Day gifts. Got to see Grant this Sunday morning at the Father's Day picnic.

Did some Anki2 studying on Glens Fork. Optimized one unprocessed photo from circa Christmas 2017:

A town of some 400 souls nestled in the foothills of the Moon Peaks. This town exports coal and limestone quarried in the hills. It maintains trade relations with Wyrdwood, Helix, Bogtown, and Ironguard Motte.

A high, craggy hill near the center of Darkwood Forest from which Donally Brook descends, flowing south to Donally Lake — which is bordered by forest along the majority of its twenty-six miles of shoreline.

Session 16 Phandelver Tabletop Campaign

06th June 2024 (6:00-9:00 CST) 3.0 hr session; cumulative: 47.25 hrs

In Session 16, the heroes traveled to Valtrex's ancestral home, Helmfast Keep, some two days' journey northwest from Helix. There, they destroyed some wererats, slew a guardian alligator, confronted and slew one of Valtrex's vampire offspring, and returned home victorious. Their alliance with Valtrex has resulted in the party acquiring several potent magical items.

At the end of the session, the PCs leveled up to overall level 13.
