Would that be a Navy Blue light??
Yeah Jessica, I saw the blurb online about it. shame shame. I'd rather hear about another Superbowl win! I'll have to see about a blue one, though. My thoughts are with their families, friends & co-workers.
The fallen officers are in a different plane of existence -- they're ok right now.

Hang in there,
Sending a hug to the 'Burgh

Great idea Jessica!

I am going to pick up a blue light tomorrow and do that.

on the support guys.

The stores around here keep running out of blue bulbs and e-mails are flying on list serves about what store had how many bulbs left when.

It's pretty amazing here today. This incident happened in my police zone, zone 5. (In a quiet and pretty neighborhood with lots of police, firefighters, paramedics and other city employees living there.)

They are about to have a progression all around my area after an all day event of an unbelievable show of support of force from all around the nation.

I work where they just held the memorial ceremony. They had started downtown and near my work was completely shut down for this event. I think there must have been around 10,000 officers at the ceremony.

The progression from downtown of police was one thing, we also saw a ton of guys in a motorcycle group on their way and then saw them outside the ceremony on web cam. Every and alll types of people are there in numbers and numbers to show support.

Of course our mayor, governor, congressmen were there. Extremely moving prayers, poems, bagpipes, memorials.

I heard there will be a fly over.

At the zone 5 station there are two firetrucks with the ladders extended up into the sky holding up a huge flag that the procession will go under. Outside of the station are so many flowers and gifts all around.

If one thing came out of this it brought together masses in support of peace.

You can view some vids at KDKA - Pittsburgh's Source for Breaking News, Weather and Sports . If you catch it now you can see live cam of the progression in just a bit.

I read this thread yesterday. Today, I visited a website that I have bookmarked on Global Meditations and noticed a link to this website: The Blue Movement. Coinkydink?

Pray for peace

Blue lights and prayers for end of killing

for the link!

Don't believe much in coincidences!

That's sooooooooooo coooooooooooooool!

cyclist helping too!

Hey Jessica,

For some reason I didn't click on the KDKA info on the tragedy w/the Police Officers till today. It was great seeing how the city has come together to show their appreciation for what the officers did -- and the rest of the state/nation. Even saw Dan Rooney in the crowd!
It was tough watching the ceremony. The honor shown in tradition of the march w/the bagpipes playing was something. I know bagpipes are played in joyous occasions/parades, but the song seemed to ring out to the aether in a soothing or settling way to assist in the grieving.

Because I waited, I was able to see that over the weekend, on the 12th, a huge number of cyclists raised money for the cause. The Western Pa League of American Wheelmen even showed up. I wish I was there for that ride and to see Pgh again, plus a surprise visit where ever you work.
I am getting my blue light bulb today.

I wish you the best, take care

Doug

Blue light waves are what makes the sky, or any other objects appear blue.Blue light waves are very short and easily dispersed, so that much of the glare of sunlight we experience also comes from the blue light.
