She asked about the stop and start for the Ulua. She did some checking and a bit of reqorking and hopefully Ulua won't stop streaming data anymore. She also talked to Andrew about the NRGF being blank today and it looks like it's back up and running. Talked to Kim about Windows updates. Allen did most of the computers yesterday. I will restart Kcor computer after I shut down today. Sky was great for most of the day today. All in all, a very good day! ___end___ Thu Jul 16 01:20:09 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Thu Jul 16 01:25:20 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol
