I see SnapChat (now known as SnapInc) is capitalizing on this 2016 Election Day with a whole bunch of different snap filters.
Also pondering if they have a stronger presence in swing states by capitalizing on geolocation filters and then using it for poll and voter analytics.
I also wonder what filters (if any) they have that are specifically associated w/ their new SnapChat’s Spectacles (SnapInc’s new Sunglasses that pair with the SnapChat).
My current disaster view:
So by using the Waffle House disaster recovery index scale… this is not a good sign right?
Yesterday was 2016 Tsunami Awareness Day. Obviously a good day to review some of the evacuation procedures as well as evacuation routes.
Your local emergency management agency and Public Safety emergency services professionals can provide more detailed information on imitation zones flood zones evacuation routes as well as a whole host of other preparedness items for you and your family.
BTW-I must be doing something right if the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) likes my stuff.
Always be prepared peeps!
Who just shows up at a brand new social media class?!?
Glad to see the newly FEMA certified, NDPTC Social Media Tools and Techniques Course (PER-344) to Cuyahoga County, Ohio.
Also glad to see so many fellow peeps as well as public safety professionals who are willing to utilize technology to better their agencies.
Great engagement especially during classroom activities by instructors too.
Seriously, I’m proud to see that this class can help shape the way government and public safety agencies use social media in planned events as well as before, during, and after a disaster.
Super proud.
Final Day of Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA) ICS-400 class.
Lots of discussion on Area Command, MAC, Unified Command, EMAC, Declaration process, etc…
Talking about MACs (not Big Macs) made me kinda hungry for lunch.
Also discussion on the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region-5 Regional Response Coordination Center (RRCC)…
…and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Headquarters National Response Coordination Center (NRCC) in Washington DC.
Cameo appearance by FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate
I don’t know about your ICS-400 class, but my class was all smiles.
And yes, no worries, I’m wearing an #AlohaShirt today.
Special thanks to Belmont College for hosting this great OEMA class.
Happy #AlohaFriday everyone!
Kicking off Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA) ICS-400: Advanced ICS this morning in Belmont County, Ohio.
Great to see so many familiar faces from the previous ICS-300 class too!
Diverse participants from Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia makes for a great class.
Additionally, participants represent local, state, and Federal Officials – this makes it an incredible group.
Dynamic activity discussion on Area command as well as spirited discussion on resource allocation for priorities – all the hallmarks of a great engaged class.
Looking forward to Friday – the final day!
2016 World Series Game-7: Chicago Cubs vs Cleveland Indians.
Look, let’s keep it simple for the final game.
Let’s hope for a solid game from both teams – It’s been quite a series so may the best team win.
Indeed both teams are worthy of being crowned the 2016 World Series Champions.
Most importantly, I hope for all celebrations to remain calm and peaceful.
For the sake of all the public safety professionals working, celebrate responsibly.
And don’t forget to scream #GoTribe #Windians and #RallyTogether

Reporting in from Cleveland…
October was great but a busy November is here!
First week, I’ll be supporting the Cleveland PIOs during the 2016 World Series. Later in the week, I’ll be in southern Ohio teaching ICS-400 in Belmont County (Ohio).
Second week will be a few social media classes in SE Georgia who are still in recovery operations from Hurricane Matthew.
Third week will be all Arizona.
And then the Fourth week will some Thanksgiving fun.
Who’s excited for Turkey in November? Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
And for tonight’s World Series Game-6 Cubs vs Indians: #GoTribe #RallyTogether #Windians
Happy Halloween everyone!!!!
Here are a few tips to make sure your little trick-or-treaters are out safe:
1. Make sure everyone can easily see out of their costumes.
Costume safety!
Cuts and bruises are quick ways to ruin a fun Halloween night.
2. Consult your local jurisdictions (AHJ) on approved times for trick-or-treating.
Trick-or-Treat!
Never want to show up at someone’s house unexpectedly.
3. Make sure everyone has a flashlight or glow sticks.
See and be seen
While driving, it’s hard to see people at night so the more visible you can make everyone, the better.
4. There are chemicals inside those glow sticks – DO NOT let the kiddos chew on them.
Pop – ewwwwwww!
Whoa.
5. Most of all, have fun!
Elsa and Anna with Arendelle’s Royal Chefs
It’s great time to be out with your kids.
Have a safe trick-or-treating night!
