Jophiel grew up on a ranch in Paradise Valley, Montana near Chico Hot Springs. Working on the ranch instilled work ethic and self motivation. Filled with this drive, Jophiel started mowing the local school's yards twice a month throughout the summers, at the age of 12. He moved to Billings in 2004, where he has been deeply involved in the local business community ever since. A serial entrepreneur, Jophiel has ran multiple businesses in our local community. The first business, a janitorial and carpet cleaning company, founded in 2005, has employed over 50 locals. Moving on to the media industry, Jophiel and several partners founded Green Directory Montana in the spring of 2007. Green Directory's sustainability ranking software awarded points based on sustainable or "green" actions. These points counted towards a business's total "Green Score," which in turn ranked them against other businesses in their category and throughout the entire site. It also featured a limited edition print version distributed annually. A business acquisition allowed Jophiel to focus on new projects, and a few close business colleagues and Jophiel started Rocky Mountain Mr. & Ms. Magazine, a lifestyle publication for men and women in the Magic City. After a year and a half at the helm of RM3 Magazine, the business was purchased. He now runs a web development company SkyPoint Studios and fathers his son Jaoquin, who plays football, basketball, soccer, and is learning snowboarding from his dad. Recently, has expanded to locations in Havasu, Arizona & Vegas. SkyPoint Studios is a market leader in both Billings & Havasu and Jophiel is working on building that same level of market dominance in Vegas. Specialties: Extensive experience in online and offline business. Especially savvy at WordPress, and operate several sites, one example is the blog: skypointwebdesignbillingsmontana.com/tech-blog.

Embedding Facebook Videos
YouTube has always been known as a source of embeddable videos, but now we can add Facebook videos to that list. Even Facebook live videos can be embedded and that’s great news!
So in this blog post I’m going to show you how to do it. It’s a rather simple and straightforward process starting with finding the video that you want to embed. Once you have the video click, the down arrow in the upper-right hand corner. This will drop down a list of options and one of those options at the top bottom of the list is called Embed.
Click on this and then copy all the code in the box:
Now this code needs to be pasted into an area that can accept HTML code. Inside WordPress, there is a video editor and a text editor. You will need to be inside the text editor for this to work properly.
Once inside a text editor that accepts HTML, go ahead and paste in the code. Now this will display a video to the left hand side of the screen. If you need to center-align the video, you can use several different ways to do it.
One way to center the video is the highlight all the code and then click the center emblem in the top toolbar menu. Another way to do it is to use a couple of old school center tags, which look like this:
Once you have your video on the page, it is a good thing then to share the page back on Facebook, and the cycle goes on LOL.
