Medically Friendly Shelter Exercise
June 8th and 9th, 2011
The City conducted a major full-scale exercise of the new Medically Friendly Shelter (MFS) in the Virginia Beach Field House. The public private partnership with the newly opened athletic facility provides a 170,000 square foot venue where the City can accommodate people with special needs during a Category 2 hurricane or other declared emergency.
More than 25 staff and volunteers came together in the middle of the night on June 8 to turn ball courts into a mass care area and space for family members.
Just after sunrise on June 9, over 100 members reported to organize registration, triage, medical care and logistical support for the facility. Throughout the morning, volunteers reported to the Field House seeking shelter for an array of simulated medical conditions. Each was screened then placed at a cot where they could be monitored by nursing staff.
While the Department of EMS is the lead agency for coordinating the MFS, this event would not have been possible without participation from across City staff and community organizations.
Participants included City Departments of Fire, Health, Sheriff, Police, Human
Services, ComIT Multimedia Services, Public Works and Public Utilities. Volunteers responded from the Medical Reserve Corps, CERT, Amerigroup, American Red Cross, rescue squads and local military units.

Now housing a branch of Subway, this heavily decorated building in the centre of Northampton was originally a warehouse for the leather and hide importing firm of Malcolm Inglis & Co of Glasgow. There had always been close links between Scotland and Northamptonshire on account of the drove roads which passed close by and Northampton was famous for boot and shoe making. The town produced, for example, 600 pairs of boots and 4,000 pairs of shoes for Cromwell's army and also made boots for Wellington's army a couple of centuries later.
The warehouse is faced with decorative stone work , with a bull's head on each side of the centre panel, a list of places to which, presumably, the company also had connections and, rather oddly, in the arch above the doorway, the coat of arms of Glasgow. If you want an explanation of the arms themselves ( based mostly on references to the life of St Mungo) you can do so here
It was a cold rainy day, so I took my niece & nephew to
Fredrick Meijer Gardens. They keep it 80+ degrees in the
butterfly area.
yes, let's leave this series on an optimistic note - of course, this isn't my home at all; it's my father's home

Hi! I'm back (sort of) after a month or two absence of posting. Sorry about that guys... I've been so busy with school and my million extracurriculars that i have not taken any photos at all. I am ashamed at this artistic lull of mine. Please forgive me.
So it rained today. Like, torrential downpour rained. Lucky for me, there are few things I love more than rain. I spent most of my day blowing off homework and sitting on the windowsill at my back window, staring at the rain falling through the trees, and clinging to anything it could, like this rosebush. So the picture's a little foggy, but the reason I liked it was the pink rose that you could kinda make out. It's freaking cold out, and winter JUST ended. How is that rose still alive? I aspire to be the rose; that little bit of color peeking through from a neutral tone world.
So much has been happening since I've last posted. I got rejected by that agent who read the first three chapters of my book, I fought with one of my closest friends ever. I got romantically messed up, I failed a history quiz. I started writing yet another book, I made a documentary with an awesome group of people. My perception of someone did a total 180, and I reread Anna Karenina.
But I'm still me, and I'm still here, so don't forget about me! I hope to post more soon, and no more of these crap still life pics. Soon I'll have some extra time to set up some awesome portraits - I have a million ideas I can't wait to try out.

Vision blue and blurry
falling angels in a flurry
spinning through the empty room..
Did you come here to dance?
What's in your glass?
Do you feel better now?
Let it rain, let it pour..
Let It Rain, OK Go
