I wish LinkedIn would focus in on things that make a difference to their website.
Filters (and for that matter – birthdays) are not important to the focus of LinkedIn.
I would recommend that everyone get a good head shot or at least a professionally shot picture for use as their profile picture.
I’d leave augmenting your profile picture for other social media platforms.

Well this is awkward – I haven’t the slightest clue on what my phone is focusing in on.
Time to dunk the entire phone in the water again.
Slight change of PIO plans today as I was initially assigned to ESF-13 (Law Enforcement) – I have been reallocated to support infrastructure.
So today, I spent some time with the NorthEast Ohio Regional Sewer District, their PIO/Outreach team, and WallyWaterDrop.
WallyWaterDrop and Jessica from NEORSD sharing important safety tips and stickers with everyone..
Great outreach event with Parent Magazine and with so many from our local area.
Also had a chance to pop a quick Periscope live video too.
Nice work Jen Elting!
Here’s a behind the scenes action shot (aka “making the magic happen”).

Great day to support our partners in public safety esp our PIO pros at NEORSD are an invaluable resource.
Fortunately, there was a Starbucks close by…so you know. #hydration
PIO + Coffee = Happy! PC: Chief J. Brewington
Reporting live with some Starbucks…
Fun fact-did you now we have a historic USCG station in Cleveland?
Lots of history here in NE Ohio. #SundayFunday
Pretty sure that there are better ways to learn more about becoming a law enforcement officer.
Hope your Saturday is going well.
Be careful out there.
Really enjoying sharing and highlighting our plans for our partners in public safety. We talked about a ton of them this week in the ICS-400 classes this week.
Yes, to enhance your disaster knowledge, consider reading through the above documents.
But within these plans, many government agencies have tons of resources available.
Lots of peeps to work with.
During class, I talk a bunch about different apps and various ways to use them. Some of them are straight forward-use the app as designed. Others I unconventionally use them to support our operations. And in many cases, we can use social driven apps to our advantage. However, this one is a bit different.
Did you know there’s an app that you can input your dislikes or things you despise and the app will match you to a person that has similar dislikes as you?
It’s called Hater.
#OMFG
It is nice that app development has respected the opposite ends of the social dating spectrum. But it would be interesting to poll data from this app to better understand your target demographic. Not only likes/super likes, but also hates. (Swipe down for hates?)
For the record, I have not downloaded this app.
Last day of ICS-400: Advanced ICS for Command and General Staff – complex incidents.
Great to have providers in our training class from across the state – esp since they are participating in their backup Emergency Operations Center (EOC). Lots to discuss and collaborate esp when discussing MACs (multiagency Coordination) in conjunction with Unified command.
Shared a few videos from back in the day including showcasing a bunch of FL Emergency Managers.
During all the classroom TTEs, I love that so many are actively engaged and participating. This kind of joint effort in preparedness planning and coordinated response will only help solidify efforts in their upcoming National Special Security Event (NSSE).
Great class – thank you to everyone who attended!
Who’s excited for some ICS-400 today?!?!?
Great start for today’s NIMS ICS-400 Advanced ICS Command & General Staff – Complex Incidents.
Michelle from Emergency Management welcoming everyone to the Training Center (aka backup EOC).
With almost every Emergency Support Function (ESF) represented, we were able to facilitate solid discussion on opening a second Operations Section or Logistics Section.
Collaboration with various partners in public safety, health departments, and National Guard will only help increase speed and efficiency for response/recovery efforts.
Building an Area Command chart(s) in the Unit-4 will help put things into perspective esp when situations has to deal with multiple locations and prioritization of resource allocation.
I know, poor Fryville.
However, various discussions just happens to align with large scale events like political rallies, national sports events, and National Special Security Event (NSSE).
Great first day. Looking forward to more discussion tomorrow too.
Where is @rusnivek?
