I had a wedding in Columbus and stayed in this lovely and charming home. The king bed was heaven and the bathroom was spacious and very clean. I will definitely be back as I feel like I found a hidden jewel. My very favorite room is the sunroom breakfast area with its huge original windows and round table. I would love to move in permanently! The owners are very nice and accommodating.

Our son is a counselor at nearby Pine Cove Outback. He can spend one night away from camp during his term, so we needed to find a place that was peaceful and restful - and we found it! The hostesses were quite accommodating and friendly - with just the right balance of presence and absence. We would absolutely stay here again if we are in this area.

We were so pleased with our stay. We were in town for only one night but look forward to staying again. The whole atmosphere was fantastic! The ladies were so welcoming & made the stay extra special. The food was excellent. We highly recommend anyone who gets a chance to stay there. Hope to get back & for more than a night. Thank you for all your tips on what to see in the area & your graciousness. Jerome & Frances Russo

My husband and I stayed at this wonderful bed and breakfast for six nights while visiting the nearby Round Top Antique Fair. We rented the Rose Room, however, the other room was not rented and we had the whole place to ourselves. Paula, Charlotte, and Ester were so friendly and welcoming. They provided a fabulous breakfast each morning and were willing to accommodate any needs. The house is spotlessly clean and decorated with wonderful antiques. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to this area and highly recommend it!

A friend and I rented both rooms over the weekend, and had such a relaxing time. The house is tastefully decorated with antiques, with an amazing attention to detail. Pristine and very clean! It is inviting from the minute you walk in the front door. It was decorated for Christmas with something special in every room - even a little pink tree in the Rose Room. The beds were so comfortable, and the bathrooms warm, with soft towels and products for the shower. The owners, Charlotte, Esther and Paula, truly make you feel at home. We awoke to a breakfast served in the sunroom - with Christmas music playing - breakfast tacos, fresh fruit, potatoes, pastries, orange juice and coffee. My friend has some medical dietary needs, and they went out of their way to accommodate her. I highly recommend this amazing little bed 'n breakfast. It is located in a small town with lots of shops and great restaurants. A nice little getaway. Charlotte, Esther and Paul have done an amazing job with the Heritage House. I am so glad that I found this little jewel.

I rented both bedrooms and the house for our family Christmas. My mother is 81 years old and has called me at least three times to say how much she enjoyed the weekend and the house. The facility was easy for her to access and she really enjoyed the quiet time she had before the rest of the family arrived. She even told me how well she slept. I was very pleased with the ease of having our family Christmas in the venue. There was plenty of room for people to move about and have their own conversations and activities as well as a gathering place for everyone for gift time. This may become an annual event.

My husband and I stayed at Prairie Street and attended afternoon tea. It was a fabulous experience. The women who run the house were so kind and accommodating. The tea was wonderful and such a lovely way to spend the afternoon. Their attention to detail was impressive, from the beautiful china to the delicious and perfectly presented food and teas. During our stay the ladies continued to provide delicious snacks and beverages. The rooms are well stocked with anything you may have forgotten to pack. The entire home is impeccably clean, and has the charm of a historic home without feeling dingy. Both my husband and I both felt so pampered during our stay. Needless to say it's a bargain for all of the accommodations and the stunning bed and breakfast.

We stayed one night at this B&B and it was lovely. My husband and I have stayed at a few B&B's in different TX cities and this was the best one by far. The house is immaculate and the food was great. We stayed in the Rose Room, the larger of the two. When we first arrived the owners were hosting a tea in the afternoon, and though we stayed in our room, they made sure to offer us the leftover goodies. No one else was staying in the other room that night so we had the house to ourselves that night. There was a mini fridge with plenty of snacks and drinks and we could make coffee at any time. Our room was very large. Breakfast was delivered in the morning but great. The only thing that bothered us was the train and several clicking clocks. We had a sound machine and that solved the noise problem. I'm sure you could still hear the train if you stayed anywhere else in Columbus. We would stay there again in a heartbeat if we needed a place to stay in Columbus! They even sent us a Christmas card.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Couple's solar-powered home aims to challenge Manitoba Hydro
NEAR ROSSENDALE -- It wasn't a tough choice for Will and Bev Eert.
Pay Manitoba Hydro more than $60,000 to extend electrical service to their new home in the Assiniboine River Valley, or pay about $30,000 to go solar.
Two years later, the retired couple is about eight months away from moving into the timber-framed house southwest of Portage la Prairie they designed and built mostly by themselves.
When they do, it will be entirely powered by the sun and two arrays of 24 solar panels outside their front lawn. They face south, angled to capture the most sun. They produce 4.4 kilowatts (kW) for about 24 kilowatt hours. The Eerts only use about five in the temporary house, studio and workshop they live in while the new house gets finished.
A wood stove in the new house will provide extra heat on colder days if needed, but Bev and Will plan to do most of cooking on an electric range, supplied by a bank of batteries charged by the sun. Their new kitchen will also have a dishwasher and they're planning to install a washer and dryer.
"It's kind of fun making your own power," Will says as he and Bev guide a pair of visitors through the new house.
The couple, who moved here from British Columbia, are going solar for several reasons: To reduce their carbon footprint; to be self-sufficient without sacrificing comfort; and to tell Manitoba Hydro, and by extension the Selinger government, building massive hydro dams and transmission lines is not the cure-all for the province's growing energy needs.
States such as Minnesota and countries such as Germany are already doing it, but Manitoba Hydro has stated there is not enough sunlight during the winter to make solar power an efficient alternative to hydro -- and the proposed Keeyask and Conawapa generating stations.
Hydro has made its position clear at the ongoing Public Utilities Board hearing that's examining the need for the dams.
One reason the married couple of 13 years say they moved to the province was because of the amount of sun southern Manitoba gets compared with other regions of Canada.
They say there is so much sunlight the excess power produced by the black solar panels outside will be "dumped" into the new home's radiant floor for heating.
The house is partially built into the side of a hill and well-insulated to a R-30 value. Its large windows also face south, taking advantage of daylight hours and overlooking the Assiniboine River and wooded escarpment of Hird Flats.
"The house is designed to be passive solar, so normally it's 20 degrees in here, so this house doesn't need much heat," Bev says. An architect, she designed energy-efficient timber-framed homes in B.C.
The Eerts admit they're an exception to typical homeowners who've become accustomed to relatively low utility bills and generally unfazed by their electricity and natural-gas consumption.
"We're environmentalists," Bev says. "This is our dream. We're doing it so we can be entirely self-sufficient and living a lifestyle that anybody would like to live. This is more for me a demonstration project. Manitoba has largely not figured out there's a huge solar resource."
"It's the right thing to do," Will, a former pulp and paper mill worker, adds. "In the last three or four years, solar has gotten so much better, it's incredible. People don't need to know anything if they want to have solar and save money on their electricity."
In fact, they don't even need solar panels. They can just tap into a community-owned solar garden, just like what's happening near Minneapolis, where a Wisconsin-based solar developer has proposed a one-acre field of 4,000 panels that would generate a maximum flow of one megawatt of electricity, enough to power 140 typical homes. In Minnesota, under the Minnesota Solar Challenge program approved last year, independent businesses and groups may set up arrays of solar panels and then sell the power to local customers.
In 2013, Minnesota installed six megawatts of solar electric capacity, ranking it 25th nationally. Recently, the state's Public Utilities Commission established a method for utilities to calculate how much to pay for electricity generated by the ever-increasing number of rooftop solar systems.
In Manitoba, Hydro only offers loans to people looking to install a solar water-heating system. The Crown utility says the widespread use of solar energy to generate electricity is not yet practical when compared to hydroelectric generation. Manitoba Hydro did support the installation of a 12.7-kW solar wall at the Red River College downtown campus in January 2003.
In a written briefing to the PUB on emerging energy technology, it does say the potential for development of solar power in southern Manitoba is good -- even in winter.
"The southern portions of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba have the best solar resources in Canada," it says.
"Cities such as Brandon or Winnipeg that are located within good solar resources could have the photovoltaic farm located near their urban load centres. The solar photovoltaic rooftop potential of Winnipeg has been estimated to be greater than 3,000 megawatts."
That's the equivalent of about two Conawapas.
West of Winnipeg, nestled on a hill overlooking the Assiniboine, the Eerts already know this. They know the sun that shines over the Twin Cities is the same one that shines on their front-yard solar array. It might be just a tad less intense on some winter days, but just a tad.
"If Hydro were just to take their blinkers off and say, 'We could work with the sun,' it could be a big advantage to them," Will says. "The sun will keep shining, and for greenhouse-gas emissions, it's much more friendly than dams."

Back to Breitbart TV
When Smith said, "You equated our forces to terrorists" and Greenwald defended himself by claiming he wasn't calling the troops who have to follow the orders of their leaders terrorist just the leaders.
"Look, anybody can question and even vehemently criticize decisions by our leader to go to bar and nobody should hold the soldiers sent there responsible for the decision," he replied. "So the question of is an invasion aggressive in nature and based on false pretenses like a country like Iraq has nothing to do with blaming soldiers who were sent to the country. everybody has learned in the United States to distinguish between political leaders and soldiers when it comes to questioning and condemning war decisions."

Product description
In this remarkable collection of BBC recordings, we hear what the people of the Home Front listened to as they lived, loved, laughed and worked through the dark days of World War Two; from the stirring speeches and air-raid sirens, to the humour and music that helped to keep them smiling through. But we also hear their story in a unique oral history of ordinary lives turned upside down: wedding nights spent in the Underground, couples falling in love who scarcely noticed the bombing and positively welcomed the blackout, and mums coping with wayward evacuees. Listen and be taken back to a world in which housewives became riveters and bank clerks turned into firefighters - but where no-one could turn on a light or ever find a banana! This is the original recordings from the BBC Sound Archive, with linking narration by Richard Baker.

Some of you will look at the above image and start doing joyous cartwheels around the room. Some of you will just see a poster for a local MMA card held at a county fair and say "I don't get it." And that's because you haven't been introduced to the prophetic glory of Dan Quinn.
For the unfamiliar, Quinn is a 4-4-1 professional fighter who's had the dual honors of being choked out by Frank Mir and going three rounds with Jason Lambert. As a linebacker at Notre Dame, he once picked Iron Head Heywood out of the air at fourth and inches; it was, in Quinn's estimation, the greatest stop in college football history. (Quinn was later kicked off the team amid allegations of sexual assault.) He once knocked out five men in one night at Juanita's in Encinitas, California. He's discovered the secret of weight loss and tumor-melting, via Stevia and cold fission. And oh yeah, he's preparing for his first fight since a January '05 TKO loss to Dan Molina, and will be facing Dave Huckaba, who has knocked out Bo Cantrell twice, once in 26 seconds and once in five seconds.
But those are just facts, and statistics, and they don't really tell the story of a man. To understand who Dan Quinn really is, you'll have to watch his shirtless mirror-rants on YouTube.Read More DIGG THIS

We've all heard about Drive-In theatres, but did you know how they began? Did you also know there was a new craze in Ireland for drive-in bingo? Don't worry, we'll explain everything.
Motivated by his mother's inability to sit comfortably in typical Cinema seats, Richard M. Hollingshead invented the drive-in theatre concept in 1932. Advertised as "Entertainment for the whole family, even your noisy children", the idea quickly caught on with cars being charged just 25 cents. By the mid 60's, the American love affair with automobiles had led to the development of 4,000 theatres across the country. One drive-in theatre was the Johnny All-Weather Drive-In which covered 29 acres and could park 2,500 vehicles based in Long Island, New York. It also had a restaurant with roof-seating, a children's playground and indoor theatre for bad weather and daytime showings.
The advent of colour TV's, film rentals and rising property prices led to a sharp decline in drive-in theatres in the US over the next few decades. The drive-in theatres dependence on dark nights and good weather led to many cancellations which made it inconvenient for regular trips. The theatres also only operated in the Summer months offering b-rated Hollywood movies, no match for the summer blockbusters. Some theatres still remain, mainly as a novelty attraction for those seeking nostalgic entertainment, though many drive-ins including one in Manchester are successfully still in operation.
The Rise Of Drive-In Bingo
Bingo is another industry that's had its fair share of decline since the early 70's, so it's quite fitting that a new craze in Ireland is combining these two concepts together in a surprising mashup. The rise of internet bingo, the smoking ban and tax increases on bingo profits led to many closures, with only 400 remaining in the UK. Sites such as Paddy Power and Two Big Ladies offered Bingo fans a simple way to play bingo online from the comfort of their home.
However, some fans of the popular game are fighting back against the internet. This summer, hundreds of bingo players made their way in cars to the GAA stadium in Portlaoise, County Laois for what was described as the first ever drive-in Bingo event in the world.
The caller announced the numbers through a microphone that could be picked up in the cars using a certain radio frequency. Cars notified the event staff of winning tickets by beeping their horn and flashing their lights.. The jackpot was an impressive €4,900, and all profits went to three local groups in need of funding.
"It's a great laugh and there's been a lot of positive reaction. You can relax in your own car with friends or family, have a smoke if you want, and enjoy the game and not worry about parking," said Séamus Davis, the organizer of the event, which was created in part due to the smoking ban.
Séamus said he plans to hold the events regularly from now on and that people from all over the country had contacted him about visiting the next event, or expressed interest in creating their own drive-in bingo day in their local area.
The love of wagering is very old and is seen in many cultures around the globe. There's lots of countries across the world that contain gambling during their story, the reality is there are actually virtually no cities that do not contain a record of betting.
Vegas is seen as the twenty-first century variant to the older Western resorts. Vegas has a multi billion $ market and is one of the few locations throughout the US that has authorized gambling.
Men and women want to gamble and it isn't only a wealthy mans past-time – no matter whether you are crazy wealthy or if it's simply betting for a few coins – people today want the excitment.
We can't say that the problem of fraudulent online casinos is nowadays the most acute one. Still, there are some dishonest casinos in online gambling market.
It is quite easy to identify a dishonest online casino. There are lots of features that will tell you that you are dealing with swindlers.
Main Features of Fraudulent Online Casinos
The first thing that catches your eye is an online casino's website, its design and interface, contact details, and of course, content. Usually, a fraudulent casino is created in a hurry or by people who are far from being competent in this field. Some sections may seem practically empty or there may be no such a section at all. Contact information may include email address only. Out of a wide range of payment systems, a fraudulent online casino may support only one or two of them. However, you may come across smart swindlers who copy design of a reputable online casino, create a similar name and accept payments from several popular payment systems.
Gambling has always been something that has interested us whether we are true enthusiasts or just sporadic indulgers. We all like the idea of being able to win money with neither hassle nor fuss. The thrill it provides is unlike any other; the exciting anxiety at the chance of winning and the elation when you do win. The feelings become addictive and so do the games.
Since gambling became available online we now have constant access to our favourite games and have the chance to playand win money anytime it takes our fancy. This availability has meant online gambling has quickly grown and has become a great source of entertainment during any down time.
Leading Online Gambling Options
Online bingo is one of the most popular online casino games to play. There are plenty of different variations of the game and many different companies that offer high prize money and a range of benefits.
Right across the board, the gambling world has experienced unprecedented surges in popularity over recent years as scores of new people are attracted by the lure of big money jackpots and the thrill of a high stakes game.
Nowhere is this more evident than with online casinos. More and more of them are cropping up across the web on a regular basis, all offering the chance to win real money on slots, card games and roulette wheels from the comfort of our own homes.
Yet with so many options to chose from, what should we be looking for when deciding where to place our bets and play our favourite casino games?
A reputable name
There are a lot of factors involved in choosing the best casino to spend our money, but perhaps the most important is choosing an established gambling company with a reputable name.
Many of the big name bookmakers like WIlliam Hill, Ladbrokes and Coral all offer online betting and casino games, and there are smaller companies who, whilst not enjoying quite the same reputation, have certainly enjoyed a long tenure on the web.
This is good news for gamblers, as it means the site isn't likely to go offline any time soon and take your money with it. It also means that, if there is a problem, you'll be able to get swift, efficient support from a company who cares about providing good quality services.

~ 60 minutes of activity - NOT DONE
~ minimum of 8 glasses of water- GOAL COMPLETE 10 glasses
~ 2 servings of fresh, raw fruit or veggies - GOAL COMPLETE 2F, 2V
~ stay within calorie range - GOAL COMPLETE 1993 calories consumed
~ 100 crunches of at least 3 variations - GOAL COMPLETE
~ at least a 50 Sparkpoints day - GOAL COMPLETE
I woke up in an unexplainable good mood this morning. Maybe it was a good night sleep or maybe it was the knowledge that I was going for a massage tonight but whatever it was, it felt REALLY good. It was a difficult day at work so I didn't leave quite as cheery as I had been but .... I picked Hughy up at daycare, stopped for gas, went for my massage and THEN went to see Mary to have my nails done. Mental note: next time bring dinner. By the time I got home at 9:30, I was STARVING.
We had some good challenges made in the "in the meantime" thread today:
~ 20 mins cardio
~ 100 crunches (any style)
~ stay within your calorie range
~ get your 5-10 servings of fruits/vegs
~ drink at LEAST 8 glasses (4 oz each) of water AND
~ write a blog entry
I did 50 regular crunches, 25 oblique crunches (each side) and 25 reverse crunches. I ate 2045 calories, which is only 5 over. I had 10 servings of fruits and vegetables (4 F, 6 V). I drank FOURTEEN glasses of water. And then, I did 20-ish minutes (might have been a couple more). Oh and I wrote all about everything in here :~)
All in all, I'd say this was a damn awesome day.
Waking up at 6 a.m. on a Sunday morning never really makes me happy but waking up to -26 on a day when I'm supposed to run a half marathon well...... it kind of stunk. On the other hand, knowing that my HM group was meeting me down at Eau Claire for our "graduation" run, THAT was pretty exciting. 21 of the participants ran. That's AWESOME! I have to admit, it's one of those bittersweet moments. I'm going to miss the people that I've been running with for the last four months but I'm really looking forward to meeting the next group, too. Hopefully, the graduates will have come to love running enough that they'll be out for Run Club.
Today I'm at home sick. Not at all race related. Glen's cold has now become my cold. My head hurts, my throat hurts... pretty much everything hurts LOL. I'm drinking Neo Citran and hoping for the best for tomorrow. Until then, it's plenty of water, fruits, veggies, and rest.
Here's to Tuesday!!
I just got in from walking the stairs @ McHugh Bluff with some friends. We climbed them 8 times! That's 1,336 stairs. We didn't take the stairs down, we walked the bikepath back down to the bottom. It took us about an hour and 22 minutes. Not bad.
My run clinic ends this Tuesday, the Half we've been training for is on Sunday. I'm pretty excited to see how my friends do on what is, for most of them, their first Half Marathon. I feel very good about their progress and I'm extremely proud of them.
I'm on day 2 of my "stay within calories" streak. Hopefully, I can keep this up. I've made a deal with myself that every day that I'm in range I pay a dollar to the piggy bank. Once a month, I'll reward myself with something using the loonies I've collected. I'm thinking that some months the reward will be better than others.
Is it weird that I've not even run my HM and I'm already looking forward to training for the next one?
Tonight I had the pleasure (only a little sarcasm, here) of taking a class with Denise Beatty. It was a ball class and focussed on using tubing to do strength and core training. I have to admit, I'm feeling it. A LOT. The woman is an amazing instructor, even at 5 months pregnant.
I can't wait to see how I feel in the morning.
Better yet, I can't wait to see how much fun I have running 9 hills tomorrow night. LOL. I'm toast.http://www.lifeworksfitness.com

The ongoing factional feud within the Congress over the control of Thrikkakkara Municipality took a sharp turn on Thursday with KPCC president Ramesh Chennithala demanding resignation of municipal chairman P.I. Mohammadali within 3 days and the latter choosing to defy the diktat.
Despite being in power, Congress was facing extreme hardship in conducting administration of Thrikkakara municipality right from the beginning as the 'A' and 'I' factions have been slugging it out over the Chairman's post.
On Thursday, Mr. Chennithala wrote a letter to Mr. Mohammadali asking for his resignation within three days as per a previous agreement to handover chairman's post to the 'I' group. Mr. Mohammadali, who represents 'A' group, said he would not pay heed to any such ultimatum as he enjoyed brute majority among Congress councillors.
"I am yet to get the letter. KPCC president has no right to demand my resignation as I enjoy the confidence of the councillors. I am ready to face any disciplinary action but the reported letter from KPCC is devoid of any ethics and morality. I never faced any corruption charge and have been running the municipal administration effectively. Even the opposition failed to point out any lapse on my part," said an emotional Mr. Mohammadali.
The letter from Mr. Chennithala is in continuation of a previous letter written by District Congress Committee (DCC) president V.J. Paulose asking him to hand over the mantle to fellow councillor Shaji Vazhakkala of the "I' faction for the rest of the term.
Mr. Mohammadali has made it amply clear that he is in no mood to step down as he enjoys support of 21 of the 25 Congress councillors. "In a democracy, majority matters. Is it my reward for more than 47 years of blemish-free public life,'' he asks. But sources close to Mr Chennithala clarified that the KPCC chief was urging Mr. Mohammadali to honour a decision dating back to the start of his term.
Mr. Mohammadali claimed that at the parliamentary party meeting of the Thrikkakara municipality held on December 2, 2010, he had defeated Mr. Vazhakkala by 12 to 11 votes and was elected the party's candidate for the Chairman's election. Now the chairman claims he has support has grown to 21 councillors.
According to him, a KPCC circular clearly stated that in cases where party contest to the post of chairman results in a tie or where the contestants were separated by a single vote then split term among the two contestants could be considered, provided there is a specific agreement to that effect. No such agreement had been entered into for sharing the Chairman's post at the Thrikkakara municipality, Mr. Mohammadali said.
But 'I' group leaders counter this stating that a five-member committee constituted by KPCC of which Mr Poulose was the convener, had decided on a split term between Mr. Mohammadali and Mr. Vazhakkala soon after the local body elections.
"The party decision was anti-democratic as it overran the majority opinion. I will continue in the post in the absence of any agreement for sharing the post with the 'I' group candidate,'' Mr. Mohammadali said.
In the 43-member council, the United Democratic Front has 30 members. Of this, Congress has 25 councillors. While 21 councillors are supposed to be in the 'A' camp, the remaining four are known to owe their allegiance to the rival 'I' faction.

This is a great shirt, it is comfortable and has an amazing lay. It can look very dressy but when worn with a cute pair of leggings can be fun and casual. I am not one to "handwash", line dry etc. I am busy and I am amazed at how well it washes. I wish they had other colors and would be confident giving one as a gift! This shirt is a real find!
I don't recommend this shirt. The color is great but it shrank immediately and was too short from waist to shoulder to wear a second time. I passed it along to a very petite friend!

After two fatal shootings in Ohio and Florida this weekend, questions are being asked whether dispatchers properly obtained critical information from 911 callers, and if they then relayed it to first responders. Both incidents demonstrate the importance of premise files in computer-aided dispatch (CAD) systems, and of the radio link between dispatchers and those who arrive first on-scene. In Ohio, a Cleveland dispatcher took information from a citizen that a young boy had a "pistol," but also told the calltaker twice that, "It's probably fake." The dispatcher didn't react or ask additional questions about the comment, and didn't ask the caller to remain at the scene to point out the person. A Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association president spokesperson said the caller's information about the pistol possibly being a replica firearm was never relayed to officers. When an officer arrived at a city recreation center, he saw the boy and confronted him. The 12 year-old reached for the pistol in his waistband, the officer shot and killed him. In Tallahassee, a man with grudge against government set fire to his house, then went to a neighbor's house to report it. When Leon County fire and sheriff's deputies arrived, the man opened fire with a pistol, killing a deputy and wounding another. A source has told one reporter that a Combined Dispatch Agency (CDA) calltaker entered the neighbor's address instead of the house that was on fire. The CAD premise file for the suspect's house contained information that he had previously threatened law enforcement, the source said, and would have alerted fire and sheriff's deputies of the hazard.

With the conversion of the nation's 911 networks from independent local and analog systems to a nationwide IP-based resource, on Friday the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed two sets of rules that would formalize the copper-to-IP transition and address network vulnerabilities that create so-called "sunny day" 911 outages. The nation's 911 networks are now largely operated by local governments using analog technical. Within the next 15 years, these systems will be converted to IP technology, and will be linked to form an advanced "next generation" network (NG911) with greater reliability and more capabilities. The FCC's new rules focus both on large-scale outages caused by infrastructure, but also individual site outages caused by the lack of back-up battery power to a homeowner's IP telephone set. In the first set of rules, the FCC set out principles "to ensure reliable and resilient 911 service and its continuing partnership with state and local authorities." Specifically, they set rules to address failures leading to recent multi-state 911 outages and set "demarcation lines" of responsibility for operating and servicing IP 911 networks. In the second set of rules, the commission set requirements for 911 providers to make outage notifications and to certify their technical and operational expertise.

The family of a Denver (Colo.) woman waited patiently two years to file their lawsuit against the city, until the suspect was convicted of murder and kidnapping, and after two other high-profile response delays by police to homicides. The lawsuit filed Monday names the city, four dispatchers identified only by initials, and two police officers, and says the murder of Loretta Barela was "preventable." She died in November 2012 at the hands of her husband, Christopher Perea, who is awaiting sentencing. According to the lawsuit filed in federal court, Barela was beaten and strangled by Perea, and ran to a neighbor's house at about 2 a.m. asking for help. The neighbor dialed 911 and reported Barela was topless at her door, and that Perea had just dragged Barela back across the street to the couple's home. When police didn't immediately arrive, the neighbor dialed 911 again at 2:40 a.m. However, an officer didn't arrive until about 3:10 a.m., and then didn't thoroughly investigate the Barela's house, the lawsuit states. The officer left without talking to anyone. It wasn't until 8:16 a.m. later that morning that Perea himself dialed 911 and made admissions that he had killed his wife. He was arrested, and last May was convicted of Barela's murder. After details of the response delay became known, police launched an internal investigation. However, the involved radio dispatcher resigned, ending any disciplinary action. The lawsuit mentions two other Denver homicides where "deficient dispatchers and dispatch procedures" were a contributing factor, including a response delay last April. Download (pdf) the lawsuit for more details.
Just two days after the nation's wireless carriers reached an agreement with two public safety industry groups to improve their wireless 911 location technology, the Find Me 911 coalition has fired back with pointed criticism, saying they were angry over "secret" negotiations between the groups, and calling the deal "a travesty for public safety and a tragedy for consumers." In a press release Coalition director Jamie Barnett was unusually direct—"The only thing saved by this rule is (wireless) carrier cash." The Association of Public Safety Communications Officials (APCO) and National Emergency Number Association (NENA) announced last Friday that the four major wireless carriers had agreed to a six-year timetable for improving locations for 911 callers. The agreement will be reported to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which last February had proposed its own rules, but also encouraged a voluntary improvement plan. In its response to the agreement, the Find Me 911 Coalition criticized the terms, saying they would delay implementation of improved technology and eliminate many of the FCC's proposed rules. "The carriers' wireless service is a cash cow," Barnett said, "but this highlights their refusal to make the necessary investments in the nation's 911 system to save lives." read more
After eight months of meetings, debate and discussion, the nation's wireless carriers and public safety industry groups have reached a consensus agreement to make improvements in locating cellular 911 callers that exceed earlier proposals made by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The voluntary agreements will lead to a solution for accurately locating indoor 911 callers, including their vertical location in high-rise buildings. With the increased use of cellular phones, public safety dispatchers say fewer 911 calls arrive with an accurate location, or with no caller location at all. The trend drew the attention of the FCC last year, and in February they formally proposed more strict location accuracy standards for wireless carriers, and encouraged stakeholders to jointly study the problem of wireless locating. In a statement released late Friday, the Association of Public Safety Communications Officials (APCO) and National Emergency Number Association (NENA), along with AT&T Wireless, Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile all praised one another, and noted that future technology will provide public safety dispatchers with a "dispatchable" location, in some cases right to the office or desk of a caller. Specifically, within nine months the carriers will demonstrate a "pre-standards" solution, and then meet certain accuracy standards over the next five years leading to three-meter vertical 911 caller accuracy in 2019. Significantly, the groups also released a "Fact vs. Fiction" chart about improved location technology, disputing claims made over the last year by the Find Me 911 coalition, including that existing technology can accurately locate indoor caller. Last year the wireless carriers reached a similar agreement to deploy text-to-911 features on their networks, and have done so, largely before their own deadline. Download (pdf) the groups' press release, the "Fact vs. Fiction" chart and other materials released by the groups. Also, download (pdf) APCO's announcement of the agreement, a press release (pdf) of support from TeleCommunication Systems, Inc., and an APCO story about reaction to the agreement. Update: Less than a week after announcing the agreement, the FCC moved to expedite its 911 location improvement proposals. They formally requested comments (pdf) on the terms of the consensus plan, and whether it is a "reasonable alternative" to the FCC's own proposals. APCO "applauded" the FCC's action in a short statement.
For the first time in 16 years, the nation's emergency communications plan has been updated to include current-day situations and new technology, including some methods that weren't even invented in 2008. The new National Emergency Communications Plan (NECP) was written by the Department of Homeland Security in coordination with 350 stakeholders from all levels of government and the private sector. It focuses on three priorities, including maintaining and improving land mobile radio used by first responders, plans and preparation for the Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network, and enhancing coordination among stakeholders.

Despite intense scrutiny by a local newspaper, the retirement of the city's fire chief and promises by the mayor, response times for emergency medical incidents by the Los Angeles Fire Department have improved by just three seconds so far this year. But at a press conference last week, both mayor Eric Garcetti and fire chief Ralph Terrazas bragged about the numbers, saying the newly-created data was an important step to move forward, since it's the first time the fire department has gathered and issued accurate response time data. According to the figures, both telephone call handling and dispatch times remained the same for the first nine months of 2014 compared to all of 2103—one minute and 17 seconds, and one minute 14 seconds respectively. But travel time decreased by three seconds so far in 2014 to four minutes and one second. The Los Angeles Times newspaper began writing a series of articles starting two years ago that showed response times were longer than the national standard, and that fire department officials had been using inaccurate data to claim shorter response times. At the press conference, Garcetti and Terrazas also announced a new FireStat program to gather specific and accurate data on each stage of incident handling, which will allow the department to increase accountability, improve decision-making and allocate personnel and equipment more intelligently. Read more about FireStat here, and view the new fire response statistics here, including times by fire station.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has issued an investigative report on last April's 911 meltdown that affected 81 public safety answering points in seven states and blocked over 5,600 calls for help, saying the event was entirely preventable. "Americans rely on 911 as a reliable way to communicate in an emergency, and lapses like this cannot be permitted," the commission wrote, noting that its was not an isolated incident and might happen again without safeguards. Comm center officials did not report any adverse consequences for the outage, but the FCC used the experience to warn that, "So-called 'sunny day' outages are on the rise," because of the increased interaction of new and old 911 systems. The report was prepared by the FCC's Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau (PSB). It explained that the outage occurred because of a "software coding error" at Intrado Inc.'s Colorado network center, which provides routing services for several states. "Further, inadequate alarm management resulted in significant delays in determining the software fault and restoring 911 service to full functionality," the FCC said. Intrado operates a redundant hub in Florida "but because the malfunction was not detected promptly and mitigation actions were not efficiently developed," Intrado didn't transfer 911 routing services for six hours.

With staffing hovering at about 70 percent of authorized strength, the Oakland Police Department says it will take several years to complete a plan to begin directly answering its own cellular 911 calls, instead of routing them through the regional California Highway Patrol (CHP) comm center. Almost every other city within the San Francisco area has already made the programming changes necessary to receive 911 calls received on cellular towers within their jurisdiction, which reduces call-handling times. But Oakland has deliberately lagged in taking the calls, citing their understaffing problem which has been caused by on-going budget problems. Police officials claim that in Sept. 2014 it took an average of 20 to 30 seconds for a 911 caller to reach an OPD dispatcher, even if the call was routed through the CHP's regional comm center. However, the CHP center is often overwhelmed by cellular 911 calls and takes longer to answer and transfer local jurisdiction reports of incidents. A comm center supervisor says nine new dispatchers were hired last December, but that four have quit—three decided to pursue a different line of work and one left for a higher-paying job. Read more about the staffing situation here.
The family of a Utah man who was fatally shot by police last month say a 911 logging tape supports their view that police overreacted to the situation. They admit that Darrien, Hunt, 22, was carrying a samurai sword, but said he wasn't a threat to anyone because the sword was a replica souvenir that didn't have a sharp edge. A citizen dialed 911 at 9:45 a.m. to report that Hunt was carrying the sword near a strip mall, although the caller didn't say—and the dispatcher didn't ask—if he was threatening anyone, waving the sword or acting aggressively. A Saratoga Springs police spokesperson said two officers responded to a "suspicious person" incident, confronted Hunt, and that he "lunged" at them. The officers fired their handguns at Hunt, who then began running away. The officers continued shooting, and Hunt collapsed and died about 200 yards away. Police released the three-minute 911 logging tape last week. On the tape the dispatcher answered, and then listened as the caller described the location and then explain, "But he was walking with a samurai sword." Immediately after that, the sounds of loud keyboard typing are audible on the tape, and the dispatcher begins asking a long series of specific questions about the suspect's description. The dispatcher never asked about the suspect's posture, interactions with other pedestrians or other behavior. She also did not keep the caller on the line as the officers responded, but instead told him, "We'll go ahead and get this out to an officer." Sartoga Springs Police Chief Andrew Burton said the dispatcher felt that the simple presence of such an unusual weapon was sufficient to classify the incident as "suspicious," and to dispatch officers to investigate. The dispatcher then ended the call. Read more about the incident here, and listen to the 911 call here.
The families of two St. Louis (Mo.) murder victims have filed a state lawsuit against the city's police department and its dispatchers alleging that the deaths last July could have been prevented if officers had responded promptly and to the correct location. Instead, the lawsuit says officers arrived on-scene 40 minutes after one victim dialed 911 for help and were at the wrong location. As the officers searched for the location of the 911 call, the lawsuit says they heard gunshots one block away and arrived to find both victims had been fatally shot. Police say Tony Jordan Jr. intervened in a dispute between Jessica Thompson and Adrian Houston, after which Houston left. Jordan Jr. called police and reported the incident. However, by the time police arrived, Houston had returned with a handgun and shot both Jordan Jr. and Thompson. "The dispatcher used care commensurate with a request to retrieve a cat from a tree," the lawsuit states sarcastically, and delayed the response to the incident. When officers were dispatched, it was to an erroneous address, "being an address which did not exist." The lawsuit claims the dispatcher(s), "failed to properly and with deliberate indifference provide adequate police services" that caused the deaths of Jordan Jr. and Thompson. Read more about the incident here, and download (pdf) the full lawsuit here.
A Florida man with a history of violence dialed 911 earlier this week to make a startling admission: he had shot and killed his adult daughter and her six young children. His words were so unexpected that on the logging tape of the 911 call, the Gilchrist County 911 dispatcher is heard whispering to a colleague, "I need help." In the two-minute call, Don Spirit, 51, told the dispatcher, "I just shot my daughter and shot all my grandkids. And I'll be sitting on my step and when you get here I'm going to shoot myself." Spirit would not answer the calltaker's questions, saying only, "I don't want to hear it, ma'am, you don't need to know every f….ing thing." Spirit also refused to stay on the line as deputies responded. "No, I'm not that, I'll wait for them to get here. When they get here I'm going to shoot myself on my back step. Alls I'm doing is waiting for them." He then hung up. An arriving deputy found Spirit and the six others dead. Read more about the incident here, and listen to the 911 call here.
Despite action by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to improve cellular 911 call location accuracy standards, an industry special interest group continues to promote its members' technology, most recently with a press release claiming that an average of three people die each day in California because of missing or delayed 911 ALI data. The FindMe 911 Coalition claims that 1,227 lives could be saved each year in the state, "if cell phone carriers had to quickly share accurate location data for 9-1-1 callers with emergency responders." But the claim rests on a chain of survey data, along with conclusions and assumptions about how and why 911 location information is being handled. The Find Me 911 coalition bills itself as a grassroots movement, but is financially backed by TruePosition Inc., a company that provides wireless location technology. TruePosition is lobbying Congress and the FCC to improve 911 call location accuracy, which could benefit itself and other companies who offer alternate technologies for locating cellular phones. In a press release (pdf) posted Monday, the coalition urged the FCC to "move quickly to adopt the indoor location standards" that the commission proposed last February. In fact, there's no evidence the FCC will not pass the proposed regulations, probably with some revisions, although the final rules could take several more months to finalize. details
A federal court judge has ruled that a lawsuit against the city of West Haven (Conn.) can go forward, saying that there are "genuine issues of fact" on whether a police officer and dispatcher discriminated against a woman who was murdered by her husband in 2011. However, U.S. District Court judge Jeffrey Meyer dismissed a claim against a second West Haven dispatcher, saying there was no evidence the dispatcher knew the victim was Turkish. According to the lawsuit filed three years ago, Shengyl Rasim had several contacts with police about her estranged husband, Selami Ozdemir, who would come to her residence and threaten her. Officers arrested the husband and issued a protective order. However, on the night in question Ozdemir bailed out and returned to Rasim's house with a gun, fatally shot her and then killed himself. details
Nearly every conceivable dispatch problem occurred after an Iowa woman dialed 911 when her husband collapsed, ending with a 46-minute response time for an ambulance and the death of her husband. The local fire chief said it was unusual situation, but it could occur again given the low staffing and volunteer departments in rural Iowa that prevents 24-hour emergency coverage. The chief also admitted that some technical glitches also prevented firefighters from receiving dispatch information after the 911 call. Myrna Hunt dialed 911 last December when she discovered her husband was unconscious. Her call went to the Polk County sheriff's comm center, where a dispatcher mistaken evaluated the call as a fall victim. The dispatcher paged out the local volunteer fire department, but two technical problems prevented them from receiving two broadcasts. After Hunt called back, a third page went out, and a volunteer firefighter called the dispatcher and asked for the next-due ambulance to be dispatched. However, that agency doesn't staff on the weekends, and so the third-due ambulance was called, responding from 25 miles away. Mr. Hunt suffered a cardiac arrest in the ambulance and later died.

Jul 28, 2011Big Talk is a record to be roared while stood atop the bar, and then deny all knowledge of the next day.
Jul 19, 2011Though Big Talk doesn't deviate from the trusted rock-pop path with a few bluesy stepping stones, it's a satisfying listen in which this drummer-turned-front man holds his own incredibly well.
Jul 21, 2011Big Talk may not have rock star sparkle, but it walks the walk when it comes to solidly entertaining songs.
Jul 15, 2011Halfway in, Vannucci finds his feet with the bluesy No Whiskey, before an impeccable run of spry, sun-kissed alt-country numbers announce him as Las Vegas's answer to Tom Petty.
Jul 18, 2011It's much more fun than the Brandon Flowers album. Which, admittedly, isn't very big talk at all.
Jul 28, 2011What we have is an attempt to boil down old cliches into something fresh, but instead reducing them to the lowest thing rock music: a boring album.
Jul 15, 2011Vannucci's listless voice does the songs few favours, either: he's nobody's idea of a commanding presence at the microphone.

Jun 16, 2014A bunch of reviews from jaded professionals who have heard it all does no justice to the pure pleasure that is the debut album of Big Talk. This spawn of the Killers has got enough legs to stand on its own, and I hope it does so in another incarnation. If you've already listened to the album and put it away, I dare you to listen to it just a couple more times, and you'll be hooked.… Expand
Jul 19, 2011It's pretty gutsy to make a solo-album (kind of) if your the drummer of a very successful band like the Killers. And the end result isn't bad at all. It's no groundbreaking collection of songs, but listening to it puts me in a good mood, especially the song Next One Living. I understand Brandon Flowers is already talking about doing another solo-album after the next Killers release, hopefully Ronnie and Taylor will do the same...… Expand
