Doing some brainstorming today.
Simple humble beginnings bubble to the top and my favorite quote from Lao Tzu comes up again and again and again.
Get cracking peeps. You ain’t getting any younger.
Carpe diem stuff.

These are the kinds of details will help enhance your current plans.
Now you are probably wondering why I said to write them down (hard copy). If you lose power to your cell phone, or worse yet, you lose your cell phone during evacuation – you won’t have your programmed address book to reference with all the important contact information and cell phone numbers.
Create your family communications plan now.
More forms can be found on Ready.Gov.

Welcome to National Preparedness Month – my favorite month!
I’m so excited #Obv
Lots of great things are happening across the country. So many public safety pros are contributing and supporting their communities this year.
Trust me, across this great country, I’ve presented a bunch, shared some engaging ideas, and made lots of phone calls.
Excited to see everyone’s A-game on Preparedness. For more ideas, check out www.ready.gov

Tomorrow is the start of the 2016 National Preparedness Month. MY FAVORITE MONTH!
For those in public safety, this is an incredibly important month where we highlight preparedness efforts for all of our personnel and general public.
If you’ve sat in any of my classes before, you know that I am passionate about sharing the message of preparedness.
Lots of big plans including a special trip to Washington DC. Details to follow.
What the what?
Hi Craig-You know I double-checked my emergency preparedness kit. #NatlPrep #PrepareAthon
Everyone is participating. Everyone.
So I hope you join all of us in this national effort and participate because your friends and family look to you for good preparedness information.

Stop saying favorite….say like!
In case you missed it, Twitter changed their “favorite” button to a “like” button.
Yep, it changed from a star to a heart.
Twitter has played off the move from “favorite” to “like” as a universal symbol. The hearts have also done well on Periscope, Twitter’s live broadcast social media app. Perhaps it’s their cross platform comfort by using the heart as their like too.
Although I am NOT much of a fan of the new change, it might make it easier for people to say the one-syllable “LIKE” vs that three-syllable “FAVORITE” – I guess.
#Twittr
In my life, I do appreciate Twitter saving me from saying two less syllables.
Either way, you should “LIKE” things on Twitter now.
Instagram just announced that it will go from 640×640 picture posts now to 1080 x 1080 picture posts.
This is most likely attributed to mobile hardware improvements since 2010 and camera phones now take excellent pictures. So to meet the new uploads and higher quality standards, Instagram changed their programming to allow users to include more.
So what does all that gobbledygook actually mean for the Instagrammer?
Before you could only post this type of image with marginal clarity (640 resolution).
Now, you can post this with better quality and better clarity (1080 resolution).
Bigger picture at a standard 1080 resolution, better clarity, and a much better story platform for your audience.
Picture border? Still square.
Time is short, so Gram good stuff.
Where is @rusnivek?
