Conscious climate consumers that we are, we can't help but indulge in a little pre-xmas pud of (yet another) NEM review. There are terms of reference, and wouldn't you know, we have thoughts about them. The TL;DR of *this* NEM review is that there are a bunch of good eggs, led by Tim Nelson, in search of the successor to the Capacity Investment Scheme. And once again, heavy sighs from governance wonks and demand side proponents abound as these do not seem to be a focus.

Please tune in to this episode of The Building BITE Podcast, as we hear from industry experts about key topics to help you be successful. The Building BITE host Mike Diercksen, CRIS, welcomes Nick Demonte, Cement Mason Coordinator, and Tim Nelson, Plastering Coordinator at ITF OPCMIA. We begin the episode by discussing Nick and Tim's professional career, which eventually lead them both to an educational role. Nick and Tim share the new technology they are bringing to the industry and demonstrate the need to incorporate these new strategies due to the labor workforce continuing to shrink. Nick and Tim leave provide excellent insight into the labor force at large, and ultimately leave us with three key takeaways. 1. Recruit: As an industry, we are losing more workers than we are bringing on and we need to find ways to recruit diverse talent. Using tools such as the VR Simulator is just one way that we are looking to engage with both our existing prospect pools and to expand into new groups that may not have otherwise looked at the trades. 2. Train: It is not enough to simply get more people to join the labor work force, but we need to train these new workers to be able to hit the ground running and shorten their learning curve. Using these technologies enables the industry to do exactly that, while offering opportunities to existing laborers to renew certifications and enhance their own experience. 3. Retain: As it stands, industry data shows that in the coming years we will be losing four workers for every one that enters the labor workforce. Investing in technology and demonstrating to new workers the career opportunities available to them will be instrumental to retention rates and the long-term success of our industry.

We're sharing this guest episode again because it is full of such innovative and exciting medical advances that more of us should be aware of. If you didn't catch this one the first time, here is your chance. Dr. Timothy Nelson is the founder of HeartWorks, an organization that developed from the Todd & Karen Wanek Family Program for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome founded at the Mayo Clinic in 2010. Tim's work specializes in the creation of stem cells to create heart muscle and hopefully cure pediatric congenital heart defects in the near future.The HeartWorks team has developed a platform that enables multiple cell-based clinical trials to be conducted simultaneously in collaboration with a consortium of world-class medical institutions. Check out this short video that chronicles the transformative technology of bioengineered cardiac tissue by converting a piece of skin from an individual to a beating heart muscle.Dr. Nelson earned his MD and his Doctor of Philosophy from the Medical College of Wisconsin, and he's been a physician at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN since 2005In this episode, Dr. Nelson dives into the incredibly exciting technology that he and his team at HeartWorks are working on in an effort to create positive outcomes for those born with congenital heart defects. Statistics show that 1 in 100 children are born with a congenital heart defect and 1 in 4 of those born with a CHD will require a life-saving surgical procedure within their first year of life. Even with these interventions, 50% of children born with CHD won't make it to their fifth birthday. HeartWorks is working tirelessly to give children and adults with CHD a promising and fulfilling future.Dr. Nelson explains what exactly stem cells are, and how they are being used to have the potential to rebuild the heart. This is a fascinating episode, and I know you won't want to miss it.Quote from the episode:“We are on the tip of an iceberg and when we show this model can work, it is catalytic” - Dr. Tim NelsonTo learn more about Dr. Tim Nelson, please see the links below:Website: heartworksinc.orgCase2Cure Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cause2cure/id1489215831LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-nelson-cause2cure/Facebook (personal): https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100010438424147To Connect with Mike:Website: https://mikemalatesta.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikemalatesta/Get Mike's book “Owner Shift”: https://mikemalatesta.com/owner-shift-book-by-mike-malatesta/Please LIKE

#301Pothole RunNice Games Jam2023.04.21According to Minnesota Public Radio, it's hot girl sinkhole spring. In other words, we have an insane number of potholes right now in the Twin Cities, and since we can't do anything other than wait for the hardworking folks of road repair to fix them, we made a game about the whole situation. Andy and Beth Korth join for this special Nice Games Jam!GLOM preorder through Miniature MarketGLOM preorder through GameNerdz✨hot girl sinkhole spring✨ - Minnesota Public RadioUptown washout leaves 8-foot-deep sinkhole in Minneapolis intersection - Tim Nelson and Kerem Yücel, Minnesota Public RadioThe Korths are back!

The hill is made of road tiles, but some of the tiles are pitted with potholes. Players can use Playdoh to patch potholes in the road so the marbles will make it to the finish.The board is a grid laid over a raised pyramid where players put down terrain. Everything starts in the center (city hall); that's where you put the marbles so they roll down the hill. Each quadrant is a side of the pyramid, there's some method of tiling for the player to put pieces down to determine how the marbles will travel in that area.Turn orderPlay starts with the player who most recently hit a pothole with their car or their bike. In case of a tie (as might happen if multiple players were in a car together), the younger player goes first.Play then proceeds clockwise.Players can take 3 actions on their turn. You can do the same action more than once. The actions are:Rotate the boardPlace or swap a tilePatch a potholeDrop a marbleTilesEach tile is worth 1, 2 or 3 victory points when marbles pass through. The rougher the tile, the more victory points it's worth.Players also get a bit of Play-Doh to fill up potholes in the terrain.Players have 5 tiles in their hand at any given time; as an action, they can play one, then draw back up to 5 tiles.Rotating the boardRotating the board happens towards the left (counterclockwise), the opposite of play order, which goes to the right (clockwise). Each rotation turns the board 90 degrees.Scoring & dropping marblesIf a marble reaches the bottom of the hill in front of you, you get the victory points that it acquired from each tile it moved through on its journey from the top of the hill to the bottom.You ONLY get the victory points if the marble reaches the bottom of the hill. If you drop a marble as an action, and the marble gets stuck on the way, you don't get any points from the tiles it passed through.Winning the gamePlay proceeds in 12 rounds. Each player gets one turn per round.Play ends when the turn counter reaches zero (game starts at the start of winter, ends at the start of the next winter)Whoever has acquired the most victory points by the end of the "year" is the winner of Pothole RunFun stuff to think about for the futureWe have to create an extractor to get the playdoh out.Cooperative play mode? Roles for each player? Someone who's better at filling potholes, someone who can put more marbles down, etc. Maybe two teams?

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains content around self-harm and suicide and brief mention of sexual violence against children.“They tried to ‘fix' my stigmas to make me like everyone else, rather than leveraging my gifts. I said, ‘screw that, I'm gonna manage my gifts.' And I started developing my gifts and ignoring the stigma.”— Tim NelsonIn this episode of What's In Your Toolbox: An Honest Discussion on Mental Health, Bobby Koven interviews Tim Nelson about his mental health journey. This conversation is raw and authentic, and at times may be triggering to some listeners. We have noted the timestamps for the triggering content.Tim Nelson is an expert problem solver, but he wasn't always able to use his dyslexia and dyscalculia to his advantage. Tim was diagnosed in his early twenties, but through the lens of stigma. And his late diagnosis prevented him from integrating into the mainstream school system.But as a creative problem solver, Tim chose to see his diagnoses as little annoyances rather than burdens, and followed the path of his dyslexia as a gift. In his youth, Tim developed seven skills that helped him navigate his childhood through learning disabilities and other mental health challenges. The skills are creativity, coaching projects, running programs, improving people, knowing oneself, understanding interactions and defining standard work. Developing these consistent skills was key in overcoming the challenges of dyslexia and dyscalculia, and the consistency has paid off, putting Tim in charge of some of the largest projects in the world. Tim has also put his RECOVER system into practice to recuperate from life events that had a massive impact on him.  RECOVER is an acronym; R is receive help, E is exhibit compliance, C is care, O is outline a schedule, V is venture out, E is establish purpose, and R is reach for the stars.This‌ ‌episode discusses:‌ ‌✔ How dyslexia and dyscalculia impact learning and education and self-esteem✔ The seven skills Tim developed to overcome dyslexia and dyscalculia challenges✔ Tim's RECOVER acronymHighlights:‌ ‌00:01  Intro02:53 Meet Tim Nelson09:10 Tim's Gifts11:33 Growing up12:48 Tim's seven skills15:08 Diagnosing dyslexia and dyscalculia20:55 Leveraging gifts22:57 Bipolar diagnosis and mania23:52 TRIGGER WARNING: Self-harm and suicide26:42 Tim's RECOVER acronym28:30 TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual violence towards children30:59 Tim's Amazing Support Team33:28 TRIGGER WARNING: Suicide35:18 Tim's advice to othersAbout Guest:Tim Nelson is an expert problem solving coach, change agent, global diversity and inclusion ambassador and author and inventor.Links:‌Connect with Tim:LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-nelson-0270526Website https://onefivefifty.com/To get in contact or learn more about Living Jewishly:  Visit‌ ‌our ‌website: https://livingjewishly.org  Follow us on Instagram: @living.jewishly  Watch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO2YEegjapKpQeXG6zh6tzw   or send us an email at hello@livingjewishly.org.  Shalom!

Minnesota fugitive accidentally freed in Indiana is arrested in the Twin Cities and government shutdown could cut off food assistance for tens of thousands of women and children. This is an evening update from MPR News, hosted by Tim Nelson. Music by Gary Meister.

School resource officers (SROs) are set to return to two districts in Blue Earth County.This comes about a week after Attorney General Keith Ellison released a second opinion meant to clarify when officers are allowed to use force, including certain kinds of restraints, under a new law.A number of law enforcement agencies across the state have recently pulled officers from schools, saying they needed more clarity. And they called for a special session to revise the law. 'We're all clear' Ellison says latest moves should end questions over police in schools The Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association sent a letter to its members agreeing to Ellison's updated guidance. Blue Earth County Sheriff Jeff Wersal told MPR News reporter Tim Nelson he is following that advice. “Every case is different, every case is unique. So as long as the deputy can articulate the need for force — once POST [Board] weighed in and MPPOA weighed in — I felt comfortable putting them back in,” he said. “I still feel, though, that it needs to be looked at by the legislature.”The Blue Earth County Sheriff's office oversees the deputies that work in St. Clair and Lake Crystal Wellcome Memorial School District, which have about 760 and 960 students respectively. Mankato Area Public Schools is by far the largest district in Blue Earth County, and that city's Public Safety Department also pulled its SROs over the law.A school district spokesperson told MPR News the city is waiting for guidance from the League of Minnesota Cities, expected sometime this week.St. Clair Superintendent Tim Collins and Lake Crystal Superintendent Mark Westerburg joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about the decision to reinstate SROs.Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation.Subscribe to the Minnesota Now podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.We attempt to make transcripts for Minnesota Now available the next business day after a broadcast.
