Republican House Minority Leader Larry Cafero has decided against a run for Connecticut's governor. As WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, a recent poll showed Cafero had less support than at least three others in his party.
Yesterday, Governor Malloy signed an executive order establishing the Office of Early Childhood, an idea that has broad support, and funding from the legislature.
"There was no doubt that this legislation, until it apparently got tied up in some politics, was going to pass," said Malloy.
Governor Dannel Malloy took the fight to visiting Governor Rick Perry of Texas Monday, crashing a luncheon in Hartford that Perry was giving for business owners. WNPR's Harriet Jones reports.
Texas Governor Rick Perry is here in Connecticut trying to lure businesses away with promises of low taxes and no regulation.
Texas Governor Rick Perry is here in Connecticut trying to lure businesses away with promises of low taxes and no regulation.
Promises - easy to make and tricky to keep.
In the case of Governor Dannel Malloy, he promised throughout the legislative session that he wouldn't raise taxes. And, by his account, he didn't. (Others disagree.)
But here's a riddle. If you promise not to raise taxes, and you've cut all you say you can cut, and you STILL need money to balance the state's books, what do you do?
Answer: Keno.
Sex trafficking isn't a problem in foreign lands.
Child advocates say up to 200,000 kids are trafficked into the sex trade each year. That number prompted federal lawmakers to look into the problem this week. Surprisingly, it's the Senate Finance Committee that has jurisdiction over child welfare programs
Rich Hanley joins Faith for Politics, Burgers & Beer. They'll talk issues, arguments, budgets, controversies, news, Obama, Malloy, Washington, Hartford, and other people and places with names… and you should join the conversation! Call in: 203 776-WNPR.
The state legislative session is wrapping up with a budget deal that many observers say is full of "promises and gimmicks." Ned Lamont, the former gubernatorial candidate agreed in a recent op-ed and he joins us with his own budget prescriptions.
If you've been following the negotiations over the state budget, you've no doubt heard three words: constitutional spending cap. But do you know what they mean?...Neither did WNPR's Jeff Cohen, who brings us this report. What is the constitutional spending cap?
"The constitutional spending cap was adopted as part of a broader political agreement to get majority support for the adoption of a state income tax." That's Bill Curry, a Democrat and one-time state comptroller, talking about the law that is now two decades old.
The administration of Governor Dannel Malloy says a federal lawsuit challenging the state's new gun laws won't make it far in court. WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports. A group of gun rights advocates is suing the state over the guns laws passed in response to the shootings at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in December.
Last week, the Connecticut Mirror ran a three part series by Keith Phaneuf on "Connecticut's budget deficit, and why you should be worried." It paints a pretty bleak picture of the Malloy administration's attempt to get out from under the historic budget deficit they were handed, and how despite what he calls "gimmicks" the numbers moving forward just don't add up.
Today, Governor Dannel Malloy joins us once again for his monthly visit, and we will, as always, give you a chance to ask questions.
We'll be focusing on the state budget today, and also joining us in-studio is Ben Barnes, Secretary of the Office of Policy and Management.
It has been widely reported -- but not heavily discussed -- that Charles and David Koch are the leading suitors to buy the eight newspapers belonging to the Tribune Company. One of those eight newspapers is the Hartford Courant.
Controversy is heating up over a plan by the hedge fund Bridgewater Associates to move from Westport to Stamford - with the help of taxpayer dollars. But Stamford officials are under increasing pressure to get it done.
State hospitals say that if Governor Malloy's recommended reductions to hospitals are accepted, they'll have to cut services, programs, and jobs.
They're looking at a $550 million dollar hole in their budget - used to pay for people who show up at their hospitals without insurance.
But the state says - hold on! Starting January 1, Obamacare, will provide more Americans with health insurance, more than enough to cover the gap.
Last week, we talked about what can be done to get students ready to work - and then get into a job. But here's something holding them back:
About two-thirds of students entering community colleges and 20 percent of those entering state universities are placed in remedial and developmental math and English courses.
Governor Dannel Malloy signed new laws that say people who own assault weapons and high-capacity magazines will have to register them with the state by January 1. But as WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, the state says creating the registration process is going to take some time.
It's been five months since Superstorm Sandy devastated the tri-state area. And now, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut are working on preparing for the next storm. Congress has allocated some money for that purpose, but very little of that will go to Connecticut.
Governor Dannel Malloy's plan to get rid of the car tax for most of vehicles in the state will not likely pass the legislature. That's according to the office of Democratic House Speaker Brendan Sharkey. WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports. A spokesman for Sharkey says that the car tax is one of the most regressive taxes the state has. On that, he's in agreement with Malloy. But Sharkey doesn't think that the governor's plan is the right one. So he's asking a legislative committee to study the issue further.
Governor Dannel Malloy says he wants bipartisan agreement on a plan to ban the sale of the kinds of weapons used in the Newtown shooting last December. But as WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, the governor says that if he doesn't have Republican support, there's more than enough Democrat leverage to push a plan through.
Busloads of employees from Colt Manufacturing and other gunmakers came to the state capitol today. And as WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, they say an assault weapons ban would cost the state jobs. They came in buses, and they came with their bosses, who say they've all got a lot to be afraid of.
Governor Dannel Malloy's popularity is at an all-time high, jumping five points in a new poll to 48 percent. What do people like about the job the governor's doing? Well, they say he's good in a crisis...and he's had plenty of those to deal with.
They're less pleased with his handling of the state budget and tax policy.
A big part of his time in office has been spent trying to overhaul the state's economy - investing millions in programs like "First Five" - which promises incentives to certain companies that create new jobs.
Legislative leaders are meeting this week to try and cobble together new laws in response to the Newtown shootings. As WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, gun makers and owners showed up to the state capitol in force today to weigh in. Manufacturers of guns and gun parts say it's simple: some of the proposed gun laws will cost the state jobs.
A bipartisan group of lawmakers reviewing possible new gun laws after the Newtown shootings has decided to issue two lists of recommendations -- one from Democrats, another from Republicans. As WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, that wasn't exactly the plan.
Small town leaders from across the state were at the state capitol today. As WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports, they were there to push back against one of Governor Dannel Malloy's budget proposals -- the elimination of some car taxes.
Malloy wants to eliminate the property tax for cars worth less than $28,000. He says it will provide middle class tax relief and that it will curtail the "most hated and regressive tax in the state." John Elsesser doesn't like the tax, either. He's the town manager for Coventry.
The superintendent of schools for Aurora, Colorado spoke to Governor Dannel Malloy's Sandy Hook Advisory Commission today/Friday. Aurora was the scene of a mass shooting last July. WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports. Malloy's task force is meeting to come up with policy recommendations after the Newtown shootings.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
So this is my first post as a user of typophile.com and I'm excited about it. I'm an aspiring graphic design student in Ames, IA at Iowa State University. Sort of accidentally falling into all of this, I've happened to go to a fantastic school with an award winning design program.
Currently, I'm taking an introduction to typography course and doing some research, came across typophile and a number of other typography blogs and forums and am now developing an undiscovered passion for typographic design.
Mostly I'm looking forward to the learning experience of being a part of this site and interacting with people who are experienced in typography. I'm hoping to use this as a great way to improve my design work and involve myself in the process of creating and identifying type.
I'm totally ready to get started.
It's like a dark, luscious jungle.
You're at a good school. Take advantage of it!
Thanks. I really plan to. I ended up at Iowa State pretty randomly and only after the fact discovered how lucky I was to study design here.
wait, what??
you go to iowa state too? :P

quotes 1-3
Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. ~Samuel Ullman
A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams. ~John Barrymore
Men do not quit playing because they grow old; they grow old because they quit playing. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes
Good quotes, Krista.
I am getting the "wrinkled skin", but my enthusiasm is undiminished, so I think my "soul" is O.K.
As one ages, it's hard not to have a few regrets, but there are still dreams hanging around, too.
Finally, I am finding that the older one becomes, "playing" is not as easy as it used to be, unfortunately. :>(
Thanks for "jumping in" for Don.
Love your quotes. Attitude colors everything in your life and as long as I still can find a couple of things to play with, like Leone, blowing soap bubbles in the winter and make snow angels, slide on my rear down the hill and play with the cat, the wrinkles don't count.

Migrate Me PLUS: Upgrade to Joomla 3 in secondsWritten by Barnaby Dixon
Brand new and just released: Migrate Me PLUS!
This is MigrateMe, completely rebuilt for Joomla! versions 1.6, 1.7 and 2.5.
Migrate Me PLUS allows you to upgrade Joomla 1.6, 1.7 and 2.5 to the latest version of Joomla! in seconds.
You can now upgrade directly to Joomla 3 with just a single click.
The upgrade will completely update your filesystem and database to the latest versions of Joomla.
Your images, articles, data and files will all be perfectly maintained, and your google page rank will be completely unaffected.
As part of the upgrade, Migrate Me PLUS will take a full backup of your database and filesystem. This means you can test out the new version of Joomla, and then if you decide you don't want it, you can simply rollback your system to your old configuration.
Get Joomla 3 in 90 seconds
A standard Joomla 2.5 system takes around 90 seconds to completely migrate to Joomla 3.
And in that time, Migrate Me PLUS will copy all your existing files, duplicate your database, install Joomla 3, update your Admin area, save all your articles and data and switch you to the new Joomla 3 Admin interface.
Watch the tutorial to see just how easy the upgrade is!
Installation and usage instructions
1) Install MigrateMe PLUS to your Joomla! 1.6, 1.7 or 2.5 system
2) Click the button to upgrade
3) Allow MigrateMe PLUS time to complete
4) Enjoy your new version of Joomla!
Buy it today
All purchases come with upgrades, support, and a satisfaction guarantee.
Your comments
Hi Barnaby,
your extension is fantastic, works like a charm, and its totally easy to use! Thank you so much for this...
Kind regards, Tommy
Awesome Tommy, thank you for your wonderful feedback!
Have a great day - Barnaby
I LOVE Migrate Me Plus! It has saved me soooo much time upgrading my clients sites.
I have upgraded about 20 or so without issue, but the one I am working on right now does not show the home page content (system output) once I am in the mmp_upgrade site. It is correct on the 2.5.x site. All mods & coms have been upgraded for compatible 3.3.6
I am converting locally, then backing up and restoring the finished sites to the live domain. Again, love MMP, have had little to no problems to this point. Any ideas?
Hi there Martine,
Thank you for getting in touch. Without having seen the site, I don't know exactly what happened here - but - my advice would be to firstly check the log file for any problems, and secondly, try using a different template (try Protostar) to see if that helps. If it does... you'll need to get a Joomal 3.4 compatible template.
Hope that helps! Barnaby Dixon
Hi Barnaby, good call, the default template allowed the content to show. But I do really need to use the YooMaster theme that had all my layout and CSS settings. Any ideas why it would have lost the system output area?
Hi Martine,
I'm sorry I don't know without seeing the system. I would guess the template is causing a conflict of some kind, which would often be down to its using outdated coding techniques that are no longer compatible with the latest version of Joomla. If you enable Error Reporting, it should show the error message.
My advice would be to check with your template creator to ask if there's an update available that's specifically Joomla 3.4 compatible.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Ten minutes from banging my head into the wall, I figured out what I did. Or didn't do. I had not downloaded the 3.0 version of the template to the old site before it was migrated. For some reason I thought it would only work if I added it to the migrated site. It didn't. But the migrating tool dragged the updated template from the old to the mmp upgrade site and it worked like a charm. Migratemeplus is great. This migrator is just a little dim.
Hi Rudaigh,
How strange - well I'm glad you found a suitable solution.
Thank you for the update! Have a great day
Hello again,
Another question. I've disabled all but the Joomla Project and Rok extensions. But am having trouble uploading the 3.x version of previous template. Just get blank screen. Am I missing something here? The plan was to introduce updated versions of other extensions once the skeleton was there. Followed the suggestions of previous poster about Rockettheme templates and am almost there but not quite.
Must I fiddle with some code?
Thanks for you help.
Hi Rudaigh,
My guess is there is a third party extension interfering with the installation proceedure in some way. Have you updated all other third party extensions (particularly ones that might interfere with this process, like Akeeba Backup?)
If you can't track down the culprit, please send me a login and the template for installation and I'll work it out for you.
Thanks & all the best, Barnaby Dixon
First of all, Holy Cow, this is great.
Second of all, I've made some mistake and need to try it again. Can't seem to find a login page now. Instead message reads in part "Fatal error: Call to undefined method Joomla\Registry\Registry::loadJSON() in /hermes/bosnaweb05a/b2893/ipg" and references RokCandy in the next part. If I were just to start the whole migration over again, would that overly complicate things? Would any changes I had made in the mmp_upgrade be retained or wiped out? I'm hoping wipe-out. Your support is first-class. Thanks.
Hi Rudaigh,
You can simply open Migrate Me and rerun the migration, and yes this will completely wipe out the old migration and start again. To be extra safe you can go to Migrate Me Plus > Configuration and change Empty Migration Folder to Yes,and it'll ensure the migration folder is empty on restart.
The error you mentioned sounds like the rokcandy extension needs to be updated - after the new migration I'd do this first.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
I have migratet at least 30 Joomla with MigrateMePlus. The few problems are extensions I have overseen, which was easy to fix. Just upgrade, disable og underscore it from FTP.
Tkanx for making migration so easy :-)
Thanks for your kind words Jan!
I bought the extension several months ago. Ive used it two times. The first time it worked perfectly. But now it isn't working. I spent a lot of time working on my new site and when I press go live, it only displays an error.
I'm trying to upgrade from 2.5.28 to 3.0
Hi there,
The error is that one of your tables (wqcdy_jaem_log) is corrupted and cannot be backed up by Migrate Me Plus. This can happen if your data table is used for too long without any optimization or repair operations.
The best solution would be to fix your table, and then re-run Migrate Me Plus. But also, please download the very latest version of Migrate Me Plus from https://www.php-web-design.com/?option=com_downloads and install this before doing the Go Live, since this version will be able to bypass the error, and instead simply write the error to the log.
All the best,
Barnaby Dixon
I am anxious to purchase the Migrate Me Plus to migrate my Joomla! 2.5 website to 3.x. I have installed a new template that is compatiable with both 2.5 and 3.x. I haven't totally restructured my menu system etc. to the new template design, since I figure it would make more sense to do that when I have correct versions of modules for this template.
I have read all the comments, I think, and your documentation. I have not seen anything about requirements for Admin Tools Pro. I have used much of the security configuration - to the url of the admin, for example. Do I need to do anything about "loosening up" Admin Tools to do the migration?
Also, I lock my domain in my host c-Panel. I have discovered I must unlock it to allow akeeba to change the final extension in the backup file. Do I need to have the domain unlocked for MigrateMe Plus to work?
Hi there Thyme,
Thank you for getting in touch.
Admin Tools Pro is quite a complex extension, in that it affects absolutely everything your Joomla system touches, so for best results (or if you get strange errors) you might want to disable it just while the migration runs. Also just please note - you'll need to reinstall all Akeeba extensions such as Admin Tools and Backup after migration to ensure that they're using the correct Joomla 3 libraries.
Other than that you should be good to go!
The domain shouldn't matter - Migrate Me Plus creates a subfolder relative to your main domain, so whether it's locked or unlocked it should work well. But if you do hit any issues there, just let me know and I'll check things out for you if needed.
All the best - Barnaby Dixon
Hi, I would like to migrate the site from version 2.5 to 3.3.6 I would like to know if I migrated plus also correctly handles the migration of url seo plugin JoomSEF
Hi there,
Thank you for your question.
Yes, Migrate Me Plus also handles JoomSef.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Thanks for the swift response Barnaby Dixon!
Last question ... made the migration phase in which test efforts to prevent google indexes the test site?
Hi Giuseppe,
Your test site shouldn't be 'visible' by Google or any other search engine, unless you add a link to it. But to be completely sure, you can add a robots.txt file with the following content:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Hi Am interested in buying Migrate me plus as the comments above are so positive.
I see the gold option is unlimited but can I please ask the following questions?
1/ Can I use it more than once?
2/Does it create all the backups or am I still better doing that?
3/ Do I need to uninstall all third party extensions such as Virtumart, unite nivo slider and dpcalendar?
4/ Do I need to uninstall third party templates?
Sorry for the questions but I am concerned about making a mess of migration and your software looks perfect for me.
Thanks in advance
Hi Mark,
Thank you for getting in touch.
1) Yes you can use it on all your systems, as often as you like
2) It does create backups for you, and won't affect your 'live site' in any way until you 'Go Live' at which point it will completely back up your live system before making any changes.
3) No you won't need to uninstall anything.
4) No you won't need to uninstall templates. You will need to check post migration that both templates and extensions are compatible with Joomla 3, and update them where needed.
Migration is relatively easy, and usually goes flawlessly, but if you do hit any issues at all feel free to send me an email or get in touch on this board, and I'll help you resolve any issues.
All the best - Barnaby Dixon
Dear Barnaby,
I'm migrating a Joomla 1.6.3 on a remote server (with MigrateMe Plus), but the process is stuck at 88% for some hours now. Could you please let me know what could be matter?
Best wishes
Hi Pieter,
Thank you for getting in touch.
This is an issue you can hit if you have a slow server I'm afraid. At 88% Migrate Me Plus is running hundreds of queries to update your database to Joomla 3, but unfortunately the speed can be slightly too much.
Please reduce the speed in Migrate Me Plus > Configuration, and also set 'Enable acceleration' to 'No'. Then re-run the migration, and it should work well.
If you continue to hit this problem, please send me an admin login and I will take a look for you.
Thanks & all the best,
Barnaby Dixon
Awesome product. My little contribution.
For Rockettheme templates these steps are recommended after successful Migrate Me Plus conversion:
1) Reinstall the latest version of Gantry Framework -> http://gantry-framework.org/download
2) Install or reinstall RokSprocket to correct RokCommon issues -> http://www.rockettheme.com/extensions-joomla/roksprocket
3) Re-enable these plugins:
System - RokExtender
System - RokBox
System - RokUpdater
System - RokCandy
System - RokGallery
4) check that these are enabled:
Content - RokBox
Content - RokInjectModule
Button - RokBox
Button - RokCandy
Button - RokGallery
System - RokCommon
Fantastic, thank you Dan, I hope other users find this useful!
Hi Barnaby, The migration went well using Migrate me Plus but when attempting to login to the 'Admin' area I get the message "Your host needs to use PHP 5.3.10 or higher to run this version of Joomla!" I use Hostgator hosting and haven't contacted them yet. Any suggestions? John
Don't worry, my host moved to php 5.4 (which I understand is the current version) and when reinstalled and then logging in to Admin its clear the matter was resolved.
Sorry to trouble you! John
Hi John,
Thank you for getting in touch - I'm glad you've been able to get this one sorted! You do need PHP 5.3.10 or higher to run Joomla 3, usually a quick email to your host is all that's needed.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Hi I recently used Migrate me plus on our organisation's site. Everything went fairly well, I just have some questions I am hoping you can answer quickly.
The main site is still active with joomla2.5 while I work on getting all the extensions and styles updated on the upgrade site. But we are experiencing instability and site crashes on the live site. The error messages have to do with not being able to write to SQL. Any advice on solving this instability?
On the upgrade server none of the links from the menu work, they all go to 404. All the articles and categories exist but I cant see them. Is this something that will be fixed when I go live or will everything have to be redone?
The upgrade site path is http://potentialproject.com/mmp_upgrade/
Thanks in advance
Hi there Alex,
Thanks for getting in touch.
The migrated site is physically completely separate from the live site, so any changes shouldn't affect the live site at all until you 'Go Live'. So my best guess at what is happening is that the MySql server is unable to keep up. You will need to ask your server admins for advice on this issue, since they will have access to the logs and should be able to spot which process(es) are slowing down the server. They might also be able to recommend a suitable upgrade for either your server memory or the MySql settings. Joomla 3 does have higher memory requirements than Joomla 2.5, so an upgrade is sometimes in order, depending on how powerful your server is.
On the 404 issue, this is quite easily resolved: you have SEO urls enabled, but the required htaccess file is disabled by default in Joomla 3. Please rename the file /mmp_upgrade/htaccess.txt to .htaccess and the urls should work perfectly.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Hi there, I'm left with a black page when trying to log into admin... Have deleted all the Joomla 2.5 extensions and updated them but still get a blank page. I am able to follow the link to the extensions page but nothing ells... Please assist!
Hi there,
Thank you for your email.
Please send me an admin login to the new mmp_upgrade system and I will check out what is happening for you.
Barnaby Dixon
A great migration tool. It took no more than a few minutes to migrate from 2.5.8 to 3.3.6.
My problem is that it seems that the system did not make a full integration. When I log on to the admin page, it still looks a lot like Joomla 2.5.8, and it does not work properly.
Have you experienced this problem before?
- Idar
Hi there Idar,
Thank you for getting in touch. My guess is that the migration didn't complete properly, since one of the final tasks the migration does is to update your Joomla admin template.
Please re-run the migration, but if it continues to not work correctly please send me an admin login to the original system and I will check out why the migration might not have completed.
Thanks & all the best, Barnaby Dixon
I have three websites that I run; same company but separate websites. Do I have to buy three separate packages or can I buy one and use that across the three sites?
Many thanks
Hi Kevin,
Thank you for your question. You are free to use the same package across all three sites.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Your program has been very good, better than I had hoped. My problem is this: I am upgrading from joomla 2.5, I installed and ran your program. It functioned great. When finished it gave me a choice of viewing the log file or logging into the new admin page. There is no "go live" button. And when I try to log into the new site, I enter my username/password and it opens to a blank page.
Any thoughts on this?
Thank you.
Hi there John,
Thank you for getting in touch.
After migration, you can Go Live from within the new Joomla 3 system. Just open up Migrate Me Plus in Joomla 3, and you'll see the new Go Live button.
I do recommend that before clicking it, you check the new system - since if you have extensions that aren't compatible with Joomla 3, they can cause issues, including the white screen that you mentioned.
Are you able to log into /administrator/index.php?option=com_installer ? If so, you may be able to update whichever extension is causing the white screen on the admin page - which generally tends to be a CPanel module. If not, or if you'd like me to try to work this one out for you, please send me an admin login and I'll take care of it for you.

After wasting a few days trying to upgrade a site from 2.5.27 to 3.3.6, I bought your extension. It worked like a charm.
I had spent several days using backups just getting back to J2.5 square one from extension errors, plug-in errors, 500 errors and re-direct loops while trying to upgrade Joomla using the inbuilt upgrade methods, or doing it manually. Several times I had the 'WSOD' and got stuck.
The thing I like about Migrate Me Plus is the ability to test the site using the temporary directory/installation, whereas the usual Joomla upgrade paths just launch you into the deep end, like bungy jumping with a frayed rope hoping it will hold.
I had a couple of instances where I couldn't get into the new J3 admin back end, but the error messages pointed to an incompatible extension or plug-in and I was able to go back, delete it from the 2.5 site and start the process over again ... without a catastrophe. One of my really troublesome extensions was an unused Koowa framework.
Then when I got the J3 back end going, I was able to do the same and use a couple of error messages to update other extensions to trial the site before going 'live'. This is a huge time saver.
All up it cost me A$113 for the extension, and about A$70 for updated extensions ... much, much cheaper than spending days puzzling over errors and failures.
I am assuming that once the site is working perfectly, the mmp-upgrade directory can go? Or is it a good back-up?
Hi there Colin,
Thank you for your wonderful feedback!
Once the site is working perfectly, and you have used the Migrate Me Plus 'Go Live' functionality, you can safely remove the mmp_upgrade directory, and also any mmp_ data tables in your database. They are left where they are so that if the Go Live function fails for any reason, you can re-run it. But once you're happy with the new system, you can remove the temporary files and data tables if you like.

I have copied my live website (hosted) to a local Synology NAS (it has a webserver built in) and tested it thoroughly (including PHP, folder- and file rights et cetera). The testsite is fully functional.
I used the testsite to migrate from J2.5.27 to J3 and seconds after starting this process I'm getting this error message, can you help?
SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unexpected identifier "Notice"
Migration failed!

Used it to migrate from 2.5 to 3.3 and it worked great. However, I'm using it on a website just now to move from 1.6.4 to 3.3. But I'm getting this error message, can you help?

Hi there Nicol,
Thank you for your email.
The 500 error is something you'll often get if the migration runs too fast for the server. You'll need to go to Migrate Me Plus > Configuration and change 'Processing Speed' to 5, and increase the AJAX delay to 2.
This should work for 99% of servers - but some (like GoDaddy) are very restrictive, and will require an AJAX delay of 30 just to work properly. But try the above settings first.
I hope that helps! Let me know if you need any more assistance.

Hello, I have installed a private component for Joomla version 2.5 and has the option to upgrade to 3.3 Q: MMP can convert this private components without any problem from 2.5 to 3.3? Or risk? Thank you for your response.
Hi there,
Thank you for your question. There is no risk with upgrading a component to the Joomla 3.3 version after running Migrate Me Plus. The migration maintains all your data correctly, and you should find that the private component updates as expected. If you do hit any issues, please just send me an email for direct support.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
hi Barnaby,
I have installed migrate me plus and upgraded my j2.5 site to j3,3 successfully. I have upgraded components in the clone site and generally cleaned the site up ready to go live.
My problem is this - when i click the go live button on the J3.3 admin section of migrate me plus - as it attempts to create a backup of my current live site database it freezes and cannot complete the task (always at 17% complete?).
I get a pop up browser message after a while as it cannot complete the task - here is the last message as they are sometimes a bit different:
Internal Server Error

Additionally, a 404 Not Found

Hope you can assist me with this,as the site is perfect ready to go.
Hi there Tom,
Thank you for getting in touch. The problem is likely to be that the AJAX requests are running too fast for the server, and the server is dropping the connection.
To resolve this, please go to Migrate Me Plus > Configuration and set AJAX delay to 3 seconds.
This should resolve the problem, but if not, please send me an admin login to the Joomla 3 system and I'll take a look.
Thanks & all the best, Barnaby Dixon
what about of big website with big components (I mean CB, Easyblog, Kunena, Acymailing, for instance)?
Is MMP allow Joomla migration with all the components?
Thanks for your answer.
Hi there,
Thank you for your question. Yes, Migrate Me Plus will migrate your system to Joomla 3, along with your extensions and extension data.
However, to ensure that your extensions are Joomla 3 compatible, after migration is complete, please update each extension to the latest Joomla 3 compatible version.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Hi Barnaby,
from what I am reading your MMP is what I am looking for, especially the procedure to first clone the site on the same server and have the ability to check for any errors and upgrade extensions etc before going live.
three questions.
1. will the MMP cloned site be crawled by robots and thus indexed by search engines which will cause the (temporary) new site to show up in search results. Especially if the migration and tweaking of the new site will be done over a number of days (maybe weeks)..
2. will the cloned update site send out emails? for example i have easyblog installed,when i put a test blog on the cloned site to see if all functionality is up and running for eb, will 'subscribers to that blog get an email ?
3. it is very likely that while i am working on the cloned site before going live there will be new subscribers coming in through the original site and maybe even some new articles have been posted. Is there an easy way to have these changes that occur on the live site, while the upgraded site is not ready yet, to be included when pushing to live ?
thanks, Julius
Hi Julius,
Thank you for your great questions.
The new folder won't be known about by search robots, so unless you tell them it is there, for example with a link or by submitting it to google, they wouldn't find it. However, if you'd like to be absolutely sure it won't be spidered, I'd recommend adding a robots.txt file to the MMP folder to prevent this.
The cloned site would send out emails as normal; the way to stop this would be to disable email functionality in the new Joomla 3 configuration, and also in your blog configuration while you test the new system.
Unfortunately there's no easy way to re-clone new data to the new system, since there are literally hundreds of changes that would need to be reproduced. I've thought about various ways of doing this, but each one would have the risk of data conflict. The best way is to try to limit new sign-ups and articles during migration, and then - so long as there are only a few new users and/or articles - to reproduce these manually on the new system. Alternatively if this is not practical I could re-clone the users and articles to Joomla 3 on my development server for you, and then manually import it to your MMP area, to overwrite the originally cloned data. If you need to do this, please send me an email right before you're ready to go live, and I'll help you do that.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
I have a system on 1.6. When I try to install upgrade me plus, I get this error: Error! Could not find a Joomla! XML setup file in the package.
I'm stumped.
Hi there,
This would usually only happen if your system is Joomla 1.5 or below. If it is definitely Joomla 1.6 please email me with an admin login and I will check it out for you.
Thanks, Barnaby Dixon
What about K2 Items and Categories? will there be any problems.
Hi there,
There will be no problems at all. Your K2 items and categories will migrate perfectly.
All the best,
Barnaby Dixon
My fault. It is on 1.5.26. So I need migrate me instead?
Hi again,
Yes, to migrate Joomla 1.5 you'll need Migrate Me (not plus)
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
after running Migrate Me Plus on Joomla 2.5.27 site, I am getting an error:
Installation unexpectedly terminated:Failed to load extension details
Migration failed!
Error details:
Do you have any suggestions, how to proceed?
Hi Marek,
Thank you for your email.
What were the exact steps you took before this happened? Were you installing an extension on the new Joomla 3 system?
I'm not 100% sure what happened here, since I've not seen this happen before - but my initial guess from your description is that the system isn't able to install extensions (probably due to an incorrect tmp directory). If you'd like me to investigate further, please email me directly with a login to the admin and details of what happened and I'll take a look!
Thanks & all the best, Barnaby Dixon
I've purchased a gold license for Migrate Me Plus and it runs generally spectacular. I've had problems with a third party component called Event Registration Pro which I suspect is more to do with migrating versions of the application than the process. If anyone has any ideas in a direction to look that'd be great!
Hi Peter,
Thanks for getting in touch. I'm not aware of any issues with the Event Registration Pro migration - in theory it should work perfectly. What sorts of issues did you hit?
In general you should be able to migrate your system, then install the latest version of the extension and it should be updated as required - but if I can help out at all please do let me know; or you might like to get in touch with the Events Registration Pro team if their extension is not entirely Joomla 3.3.4 compliant.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
I just buyed the composant from you and now when I try to install at my website I have the following message:
Erreur : Impossible de trouver un fichier XML Joomla! d'installation dans ce pack!
It seems that is not compatible with joomla 1.5.26.
Can you help me please?
Hi there,
Thank you for your comment.
Please install Migrate Me on Joomla 2.5 or 3. You need to first set up Joomla 2.5 or 3, and then install Migrate Me, and then follow the instructions to migrate your Joomla 1.5 system to the new one.
I hope that helps!
Please let me know if you have any more questions.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
After completing the migration including upgrading extensions, etc. I have an issue with the administrator console. When I log in it redirects to a blank page. I can still access everything in the admin section except for the "control panel". There are no error messages and the front end appears fine. Any suggestions?
Hi Vaughn,
Thank you for getting in touch.
If this happens on the Control Panel but nowhere else, this will likely be a CPanel module. If you don't have an error message, I'm afraid a bit of experimentation is required to find out which module is causing the problem. Go to Extensions > Manage and find the modules in the CPanel position, and disable each one in turn. When your Control Panel works, you have found the problem.
From memory though, the key culprits tend to be Akeeba (to fix, simply reinstall Akeeba Backup), K2 modules (again, reinstall K2) and a few of the shop extensions.
Hope that helps!
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Resolved: It was lib_fof which I missed when uninstalling Akeeba.
Thanks for the update Vaughn!
Have a great one :-)
Barnaby Dixon
Migrate Me is an excellent module and really does make upgrading from Joomla 2.5 to 3.3 both simpler and, more importantly, safer.
I am very impressed and, at the same time grateful to have found your site. Your support backup is also second to none.
Thank you Stephen for your very kind words!
Hi David,
the component worked fine, but afterwards there were in the database virtuemart plugins and modules noted, that could not be uninstalled because the files never existed. Is there a simple way to handle this?
What I would do is: export the database, search for virtuemart entries, remove them and import the database again.
Hi Katja,
Thank you for getting in touch.
This is unfortunately something in the Joomla system - it does not uninstall if one or more files are missing.
You can manually fix this by going to the __extensions data table, and find your virtuemart entries, and remove each one.
This will be faster than exporting and re-importing the database.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Hi there,
I have a problem with installing the component. I have installed it but can not find it so I can not press the upgrade button.
Hope you can help me with this.
Hi there Nancy,
Thank you for your question.
Sometimes Joomla has a wierd bug where it installs an extension, but fails without any error message, and doesn't create the menu item. It happens occasionally, but I don't know what the cause is.
Please reinstall the extension as normal, and it should create the menu item for you. If not, please send me a login and I'll see what I can do.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
I have a prepurchase question. I am looking to upgrade my site to 3.0 from 2.5. Two questions 1.) my template is 2.5 will it still work? 2.) Will program help if I want to switch templates and do not want to lose any content?
Sorry in advance...I am a newbie...
Hi Efrain,
Thank you for your question.
Yes - Migrate Me Plus will still work even if your template is for Joomla 2.5. I cannot guarantee that your template will work correctly in Joomla 3, it depends how complex it is, and how it has been coded.
If you want to switch templates, and not lose any content, Migrate Me Plus will be perfect for you. It migrates all data, and allows you to keep your old template if you want it (and it is compatible with Joomla 3), and sets up a brand new development area for you to try out new templates, update your extensions, and so on.
All the best - Barnaby Dixon
Will this work upgrading from a 1.5.x site?
Hi Mike,
Thank you for your question.
To upgrade Joomla 1.5 you'll need the original Migrate Me. Migrate Me Plus is only compatible with Joomla 1.6+
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
Hi Barnaby:
Would it be possible for you to email me a documentation so I can read before purchase it? I'm new to Joomla, learned everything on my own, just want to better prepare myself and gain the needed confidence.
Hi there,
Thank you for your question.
Yes of course - you can download the current documentation from http://www.php-web-design.com/docs/migratemeplus.pdf
All the best,
Barnaby Dixon
Hi Barnaby,
firstly thanks for your excellent product, we had a few dramas, but your service and assistance was outstanding. We were able to keep our old site live while upgrading various software, tweaking the template and components and testing the same. An excellent product which I recommend to anyone considering the product.
Thanks Ron!
I appreciate Barnaby's quick responses, friendly service, and overall great commitment to running a sound web dev business! Would definitely do business with again. Also, the plugin felt very well developed / seamless, and well documented!
Thanks Mike!
Hi Barnaby, I have a 2.5.22 site and trying to upgrade to 3.3.x. with MigrateMe Plus. I am getting about 30% through the process and get this error "Unable to clone date from otqu7_mt_cats. Aborting migration." this table is the Mosets Tree Categories table. It wrote 23 rows of data out of 211 rows in this table.We have 256mb of memory and a 300 sec timeout. Any ideas?
Hi Grace,
Thank you for your email.
Please send me your log directly, which you will find at /administrator/components/com_migratemeplus/log.txt
Hi Barnaby, I seem to be having a few issues, the first is no menu items are working. The Template is not finished, but I want to get all functions working prior to finishing it. URL is here http://sleephealthfoundation.org.au/mmp_upgrade/
Everything seemed to go smoothly till now
Thanks Ron
Hi there Ron,
Thank you for your email.
The reason that menu items are not working is that you have SEO urls turned on in your configuration, but you do not have an active .htaccess file. The .htaccess is disabled by default in the new Joomla 3.3 system, and it must be renamed from htaccess.txt to .htaccess for it to be active.
After this, your urls should work correctly.
All the best, Barnaby Dixon
First off let me say this tool is freaking amazing in a way that is hard to describe it does what it says it does… and does it very well….
The only thing holding this back from being beyond amazing would be the addition of the following feature I don't know how difficult it would be but I think the number of fans you would get would sky rocket..
Because the upgrade path to a lot of addon's is to update the in the live site then push then migrate to the new joomla if we could do the following
Clone the original site with the original site so that now you have 2 live copies of original un upgraded site…
Then from the "cloned site" run the upgrade scripts and then and the upgraded version of joomla so that you can remove and upgrade live stuff to see if it works etc etc and then once that was good to go push it from that to upgrade the live site… that would put me over the freaking moon !!!! just a thought..
if there is a way to do that please let me and again thanks for making such an amazing migration tool
Hi there Mark,
Thank you for your comment. The great news is... that is how Migrate Me Plus already works!
It creates a cloned version of your 'live' site and allows you to upgrade everything, test new modules, update a template, and make all kinds of changes, without impacting the live system. Then, when you're ready to put the new upgraded system 'live' it'll do that for you too - back up the old system, remove it, and then replace it with the updated system.
I am sorry i was not clear.
The issue i am having is that the site i am upgrading has several modules on it that require me to upgrade them before I upgrade the joomla and because i am not willing to upgrade the modules on the live site what I want to do is clone a non upgraded version of the site
then from that non upgraded clone of the site we run the upgrade on the modules and etc... then from that cloned version of the live site that has been upgraded we then run the joomla upgrade once we test from there we then push it to the primary live site.
I am sorry if i was not clear before.
I installed and ran Migrate Me Plus and get a few error messages when I try to access the admin area of the upgraded site. I get a Notice, Warning and a Fatal Error. The admin login page loaded as normal but when I tried to log in I got the error messages which are on a plain white screen.
Hi there Ryan,
Thank you for getting in touch. The error codes and white screen are to do with extensions that are not compatible with Joomla 3.3.
The best way forward is to go directly to your new Extension Manager at /mmp_upgrade/administrator/index.php?option=com_installer.
This should allow you to disable or upgrade extensions so they are compatible with Joomla 3.3.
I hope that helps. All the best,
Barnaby Dixon
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm slowly making progress on my upgrade. Great component for dummies like me. Once I get all of my components and plugins updated I should be good to go. Thanks for making an easy to use component!!
We started to migrate our fairly large and complex site from Joomla 2.5 to Joomla 3.3 and immediately came to an impasse. We have been very satisfied users of Barnaby's HTML2Articles extension and when I was investigating the 3.x upgrade for that extension, I read about MigrateMePlus. Despite the positive reviews, it wasn't immediately clear how MigrateMePlus was going to do a better job than the native tool, so I queried Barnaby and immediately received the following response:
" Migrate Me Plus is a very carefully coded program with literally thousands of processes and calculations - it took around 4 months of development and tweaking - while the native process seems to be somewhat thrown together unfortunately. I actually developed it because clients told me it was something that was desperately needed since the 'official' solution didn't work as it should.
Other than the upgrade part of things, Migrate Me Plus also implements a development area, which allows you to experiment with Joomla 3.3 without impacting your live site. It also creates a full backup of your original system so that when you do 'Go Live' you have full redundancy as needed.
I think you're right about T3 though: unfortunately Migrate Me Plus won't solve your T3 woes, which would have their root in the T3 framework, rather than the Joomla core or the database. But - I do use T3 on one of my Joomla 3.3 systems, and it works very well; I implemented it about a week ago, so it's possible that an update to the T3 framework has been issued in the last few weeks.
I hope that helps! Migrate Me Plus is an easy to use one-click solution, but as always I'm here to help if you have any questions or need support while using it."
Based on this response we purchased MigrateMePlus and within half an hour we were able to get our site upgraded with most functionality working. We then updated extensions as needed. Because we have switched to a new version of the T3 framework we will need to redo quite a bit of styling, but that is another matter. We also need to upgrade some of our own custom extensions.
Besides moving us from "stuck" to "progressing", MigrateMePlus seems to have done a very job of migrating the code and database in a sanitary manner.
Thanks very much for this help, and as we have experienced before, Barnaby's responsiveness is impressive.
I just have a question i was looking at product and frankly it looks amazing but here is what i am wondering. The site i am looking to migrate has a bunch of extensions that I know are not going to be compatable and so what i want to do is the following
copy the site upgrade it the upgrade the extensions then make that site live.. will that work or are there some additional steps i need to go through first ?? please let me know thanks in advanced
Also i forgot to mention i want to go from joomla 1.7 to joomla 3.3 or what ever the latest version is

Our Hearts Embrace the Cross
- Instrument:
Our Hearts Embrace the Cross composed by J. Paul Williams and Lloyd Larson. For Choral (SATB). Shawnee Press. Choral, Holy Week, Lent, Communion and Sacred. 8 pages. Shawnee Press #A7473. Published by Shawnee Press (HL.35016447).
A beautiful, contemplative melody; rich, emotional text (alternate text for communion); easily learned – this prayerful anthem is an expression of our overwhelming gratitude for Christ's ultimate sacrifice, and a poignant encounter with the cross itself. It tenderly acknowledges this moment in time when "Jesus took my place" and eternal victory over death was won. "Our Hearts Embrace the Cross" causes us to reflect upon our own redemption through the crucifixion. An alternate communion text makes this anthem a must for any church music library. It will have a profound effect on all that hear.

NORTHBROOK, Ill., Jan. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Virgos, known to be critical, meticulous and reserved, are also more likely to get into a car accident, according to Allstate Insurance, which recently compared claims data against the recently "revised" zodiac calendar.
A recent interview with astronomer Parke Kunkle has spurred debate that a 13th sign, Ophiuchus, should be included in the zodiac.
The zodiac star signs were created some 2,000 years ago - however, the star signs that most people associate themselves with based on their birthdays may be inaccurate.
First results from a new NASA-funded scientific instrument at the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii are helping scientists overturn long-standing assumptions about powerful explosions called novae and have produced the first unified model for a nearby nova called RS Ophiuchi.
A spectacular new image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope uncovers a small group of young stellar "siblings" in the southern portion of the Serpens cloud – located approximately 848 light-years away from Earth.
Every year in early December, something happens that can throw your horoscope out of whack. The sun enters Ophiuchus, the little-known 13th house of the zodiac. This story is about what really happens when the sun enters the zodiac's 13th house: An interstellar wind hits our planet.

Zodiac -- The Zodiac (from Greek zoon, "animal") is an imaginary belt in the heavens extending approximately 8 degrees on either side of the Sun's apparent path, and including the apparent paths of the Moon and the major planets: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Imaginary divisions of the zodiac represent, in astronomy, constellations, and in astrology, signs. There is a zodiac in western astrology, a different one in Vedic astrology, and a very different one in Chinese astrology....
Serpens Constellation -- Serpens (the snake) is one of the 88 modern constellations, and was also one of the 48 listed by Ptolemy. Among the modern constellations it is unique in being split into two pieces, Serpens Caput (representing the head of the snake) to the west and Serpens Cauda (representing the tail) to the east. Between these two pieces lies the constellation of Ophiuchus, the serpent bearer. Notable features Since Serpens is regarded as being one constellation...
Ophiuchus (serpent bearer) Constellation -- Location: Equatorial, visible in both Hemispheres; Coordinates: Right Ascension: 17h; Declination: 0; Source: Greek Mythology The constellation Ophiuchus seems to be a figure of a man entwined with two snakes, one in each hand. The constellation is an ancient one, but most often associated with Asclepius, the son of Apollo and Coronis. Asclepius was regarded as the founder of medicine, having learned the healing arts from both his father...
Centaurus Constellation -- Centaurus (the centaur) was one of the 48 constellations listed by Ptolemy, and counts also among the 88 modern constellations. A constellation of the southern hemisphere, mentioned by Eudoxus (4th century B.C.) and Aratus (3rd century B.C.), Ptolemy catalogued thirty-seven stars in it. It contains Proxima Centauri, the red dwarf that is the nearest known star (other than the Sun) to Earth, as well as Alpha Centauri, which is a double star to which Proxima...

Gen-Probe finds opportunities
Biomedical firm is in a position to expand its reach in the field
Secondly, and perhaps as importantly to companies in San Diego, is that the impact of an excise tax can fall disproportionately on smaller, earlier-stage companies. Obviously we have a number of those here in the San Diego area, and the fact that you might have to pay a tax based on revenue even before you're profitable can delay profitability for a young company and cause investors to get skittish and look for other opportunities. I think at the end of the day the net result of this kind of tax will be to reduce the amount of investment in research and development and we think to lower innovation in diagnostics, which is an area where we think it makes sense to invest more.

DEFINITION of 'N.V. (NV or Naamloze Vennootschap)'
An acronym for the Dutch phrase Naamloze Vennootschap, a public company. The N.V. or NV suffix is used in the Netherlands, Belgium, Suriname and the Dutch West Indies. It is also used in Indonesia, Curacao, St. Maarten and Aruba.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'N.V. (NV or Naamloze Vennootschap)'
Literally, "naamloze vennootschap" means "nameless venture," since the shareholders in a public company can remain anonymous. Stocks of such a company trade on an exchange.
This is the opposite of besloten vennootschap (an "exclusive" or "closed partnership"), which is a private limited company. Stocks of such a company are not for sale on the open market.

WGN (Chicago) radio host Milt Rosenberg interviewed three dispatchers, including Caroline Burau, the author of the just-published book, "Answering 911: Life in the Hot Seat." Rosenberg seemed to be interested in the tragic parts of the job and how it affects dispatchers, based on the questions he asked Burau and James Argiropolous, deputy director of information services for Chicago's 911 center, and Ron Stewart, a police communications supervisor at Chicago 911. "Do you come away cynical?" he asked them. Listen to the interview here.
Lawrence (Kan.) police have released selected logging tapes and CAD records of an officer-involved shooting where a woman was shot and killed by an officer after she allegedly came out of her trailer home and confronted an officer. The woman's boyfriend had asked officers to check on her welfare, and the first arriving officer radioed that the woman came to the front door with a handgun. The woman then dialed 911 and spoke to a dispatcher, who radioed officers, "If officers go to the back, she's willing to shoot." Police didn't release the conversation between the woman and the dispatcher to verify what the woman said verbatim. Read the story here. Read an additional story here.
The Lancaster County (Penn.) district attorney has released transcripts of four phone calls made in connection with the murders of five girls at an Amish school last week. Three of the calls are answered initially by a dispatcher at the Lancaster County 911 center, and one was a call-back when the original call was disconnected. The county dispatcher tried to transfer the first call to the state police, which has jurisdiction where the shootings occurred. During the call from gunman Charles Roberts, he told the dispatcher to have state police move away from the school, not to transfer him to the state police. "No, you tell them and that's it. Right now or they're dead, in two seconds." Roberts hung up just after delivering his message, and police say he began shooting moments later. Three minutes after his call, Roberts' his wife called to tell a dispatcher he had called her, saying he "wasn't coming home." Read the transcript here.
The National Incident Dispatcher Association (NIDA) has quickly filled up its alloted 200 charter members, and is now taking on-line application for general memberships in the categories of Active, Associate, Retired and Commercial Levels. The new association reflects the increasing interest in field-level dispatching and the training required for its specialized operations. The group is offering 15-month memberships for the price of 12. To apply, surf here.
The Sunday episode of CBS' "Without a Trace" was accurate on some dispatching details, but was not authentic on either New York City's dispatching procedures or technology. The biggest problem was the overly complex story that put a PSTD-inflicted 911 calltaker into the role of revenger for a sexual assault that took place in her past. Jessica, the missing dispatcher being tracked by the FBI's special unit, was helping domestic violence victims off-duty, which generated lots of false leads–and the death of her pet dog. Eventually the FBI's attention focused on a 911 call Jessica had answered, during which she apparently recognized the caller's voice as the man who raped her six years earlier when she was in medical school. She then stole a handgun and confronted the man in a warehouse, but the FBI arrived in time to convince her at gunpoint that she had the wrong suspect. The dispatching details succeeded where they could have sunk the show. But It was the flipped-out dispatcher who definitely pushed the show into strange-ville.
The opening paragraph of a Louisville (Ken.) Courier-Journal newspaper story takes an optimistic approach. "Two companies are bidding to install the next phase of Louisville metro government's planned emergency communication system, raising hopes that the price will be more in line with what city officials had expected," the story begins. Apparently the reporter doesn't realize that it also increases the risk that the final bid award will end with a protest by either M/A-COMM or Motorola. Last May the city threw out the single Motorola bid it received, because it was $95 million, over what the city's is willing to pay. Read more about the bids here.
The lives of York County (SC) law enforcement officers are on the line, according to those who spoke to the Herald newspaper, if politicians don't agree to pay fees associated with the county's new 800 MHz trunked radio system coming on-line later this year. The mostly-small cities are balking at paying the fees associated with buying new radios and have asked the county to forego the fees, but so far the county has declined. Read more here.
An inscription in stone at the entrance to the new Unified Communications Center in Washington (DC) states, "We can, we will safeguard our great city and our people." DC and regional officials cut the ribbon last week for the new center that consolidates public safety communications for the District's police, fire and EMS agencies, and also provides EOC space for multitude of regional agencies to handle major incidents. The 127,000 square-foot facility includes a child-care center for employee's, a stress reduction room, a cafeteria and "terrace retreat" overlooking the city. The building also houses the District's city-service call center, which is now reachable by a 7-digit number. Find more information about the UCC here.
The huge fire in a chemical waster processing plant forced the evacuation of dispatchers at the Apex (NC) comm center on Friday morning. All 911 calls to the town (pop. 20,012) were re-routed to the Wake County 911 center for handling. The county also activated its emergency alerting system, which telephoned residents with shelter-in-place and evacuations orders. There have been no fatalities reported so far, but at least 44 persons were taken to hospitals for treatment from the huge toxic clouds that formed over the plant following giant explosions, and which then drifted over the town.
A two-part goof put officers at the back door of a Bethalto (Mo.) home, where they obtained permission from the owner to search the house, and found an illegal fully-automatic rifle. An unnamed dispatcher received a cellular 911 call and only heard a female voice screaming. Officers were dispatched to the ALI-displayed location, which turned out to be about a mile from the actual caller. When police arrived at the wrong home, they couldn't make contact with anyone, and so walked next door to find a broken back window (which turned out to be accidental). They contacted the owner, who granted permission to search, and a modified, full-auto AK-47 was found. The suspect has now pleaded guilty in federal court.
This Sunday's episode of the CBS prime time show Without a Trace is entitled, "911," and the network summarizes it as, "Malone and the team search for a 911 operator who goes missing after receiving a threatening phone call from a man who asked for her by name." A preview of the episode shows a man confronting a woman in front of the comm center building and shouting, "You put me on hold for five minutes!" Check you local listings–you won't want to miss this one!
Three alert tones on the radio were part of ceremonies honoring Hall County (Geo.) Deputy Tim White, who died one year ago in an auto accident. Following the tones, a dispatcher announced on the radio that White's badge #419 would be retired. White was the first deputy at the agency to die in the line of duty. Sheriff Steve Cronic said the agency would forever commemorate Oct. 3rd to observe and remember White, not to dwell on his death, but "how enriched we were by having Tim as part of our family."
Cyren Call chairman Morgan O'Brien has convinced four venture capital firms to invest $4 million in the company, apparently hoping to take an early stake in a potentially lucrative bid to design, build and operate a nationwide public safety radio system. O'Brien is now lobbying members of Congress to reserve certain spectrum for public safety, rather than auction it off to commercial interests and send the revenues to the U.S. treasury. Under O'Brien's plan, private companies and revenues from the public safety radio system would replace the auction revenues. Previous auctions have raised several billion dollars, with the latest auction raising $13.9 billion. Another company, M2Z Networks, has petitioned the FCC to build and operate a national radio network in 20 MHz of spectrum in the 2100 MHz band. The proposal includes providing some free services to public safety agencies, among other groups. Download (pdf) the M2Z proposal here.
In the rush to pass port security legislation last Friday night, the Congress stipped out an amendment that would set various VoIP/E911 provisions. Several members of Congress said they were disappointed about the removal, and that they would re-visit the legislation when Congress re-convenes after the November elections. Among other things, the legislation would have provided liability protection for VoIP providers offering 911 service, and established plans for a national, IP-based 911 network. Download (pdf) the proposed legislation here.
In an e-mail statement to members, NENA president Bill Munn said he has made the "difficult" decision to step down as president of the association in November, "to be more available for my family and also to pursue new employment opportunities." He added that, "It has become apparent that my best opportunities are in the private sector or outside 9-1-1, both of which would preclude my being able to also serve effectively as NENA President." His term as president would have ended in June 2007. Munn said that many of his goals had been met, and that 1st Vice President, Jason Barbour would serve out the remainder of his term.

Best place to buy fixtures online?
Another survey. Did you buy your new bath fixtures online, in a big box store, a plumbing supply store or a specialty bath/kitchen store? If you bought online, what site did you like best? If you did buy someplace else, why did you choose that?
I purchased 3 Kohler sinks online from Home Depot because it was the cheapest, delivered in 3 days with no problems. Home Depot and Lowes carry quality products however most of their high end items are online, if it is the same model# then it is exactly the same product. Two weeks ago I purchased bath fixtures with Amazon because they had the best price, no problems. I have been a fan of Amazon for some time now, never have had any problems with them but I also want the best deal. I wanted to buy a light fixture at Ferguson's but it was more than I wanted to spend. I checked online right from their store on my phone, showed the sales person how much it was on Amazon and he sold it to me for $30.00 cheaper including tax and shipping. I still have not tried homeclick and curious if anyone has opinions about them?
Ummm....I hate to say this but the fixtures sold through the big box stores are lower quality, even the fixtures with bigger names. That's because the manufactures make the same higher end models with plastic insides so they can be sold for less.
HomeClick? If I'm not mistaken a lot of people of had problems with them.
i have had good luck with homeclick. they tend to have good prices and sometimes i can find coupon codes for extra discount. i chose to do online for a lot of fixtures because it is impossible for me to shop with two babies at home. and finding specs and info and reviews is much better online.
We had trouble with home click and faucet direct when we did our guest bathroom, they showed items in stock that actually weren't and made us wait longer than I thought was necessary to refund our money. I have used hayneedle.com recently and I love it that they state the ship date right next to the item and they are super good about keeping that commitment. There are usually some coupons floating around for their site that makes them very competitive
So I guess it is just look around and find the best deals. Lukki, I had heard the same thing about big box/big name items. I heard it from a contractor who wanted me to buy though him when I was building my house, so I bought through him. Then when I was getting quotes to renovate my kitchen I asked the same question and was told that the stuff at HD and Lowes is the same as at a plumbing supply or online if you are going by model number.
Recently replaced two toilets in my MIL's house. Purchased them from NationalBuilderSupply.com and was very pleased with price and speed of delivery. Did not hesitate to use them for the second toilet after my experience with the first. Probably would have bought locally, but no one stocked the goofy color we needed to match the existing.
Here is a link that might be useful: NationalBuildersSupply
Yes, if the model number is EXACTLY the same that's true, however what I learned in the Kitchen forum is that faucets in the Box Stores will have an additional code or number at the end of the model number if so, then well, it's not the same faucet and plastic inside.
I'm surprised (and disappointed) to hear that about Faucet Direct, I have noticed changes in their site over the past year or so and not for the better ie higher pricing/shipping charges. Its still a good site for reference though. :c) I am not a fan of the set up on the Faucet Depot site, so I always go to Faucet direct, find what I'm interested in and then price it on Faucet Depot.
