  4. City fire commander reinstated By Justin Fenton September 27, 2008 A Baltimore fire commander, who was dismissed after being deemed "negligent" and "incompetent" in his role at a live-burn training exercise in which a 29-year-old recruit died last year, will be reinstated and likely promoted after authorities determined that his termination was not proper.

  8. Ban this member for taunting!
  9. It's like pulling teeth, any results?
  10. I just heard someone put it over 46.26
  11. Could someone please cite a real example of where the person setting a building on fire has waited in the building for the alarm company to call back and cancel the fire department. This is the mother of all urban legends of the fire service. If you are told that the alarm company spoke to someone on the premisis who has said there is no fire and you continue to respond all equiptment in full emergency response mode and an accident occurs, you deserve to sit before a jury of your peers.

  13. Congratulations to Annie Link, the new Chief(19-1-1) of the Mahopac Falls VFD. There have been several others in the county who made Assistant Chief in the past (AJ (15) and KT (12)in addition to Annie) but Annie is the first to make it to the top. Best of Luck to her and her Assistant Chiefs Ted Pollack (19-1-2) and Ted Finney(19-1-3). Hmmmmm a variation on Newhart, I'm Annie, this is my Assistant Ted and my other Assistant Ted
  14. A Croton & Dispatching thread with 12 replies already and nobody has mentioned White Castle? Goose, don't worry about 60-Control hiring extra Dispatchers, worry about how they are gonna handle the extra belly-bomb runs.
  15. 2 words, gas prices
  16. Don't worry, nobody on here will leak the info. It will be our secret
  17. Can an OFD E-97 member post an original picture of the ALF from the company files so we can see what it looked like "back in the day"
  18. The bill, as I understand it, dosen't have the town paying for the insurance for the volunteers. An individual VFF can "purchase" the same insurance the town provides it's employees but the VFF foots the bill. So if it costs the "Town of Podunk" $X,XXX.YY from Empire Blue Cross/Blue Shield for each town employees health insurance, "Podunk" FF Joe Smith can pay for the same plan at the same price to cover themselfves. After a discussion on the way to a golf outing today, I have to look further into this new legislation
  19. O C FIRE has 1 picture under Cornwall. All the other pictures go back to the old Mack/Pierce

  23. Patriot Day, 2008 A Proclamation by the President of the United States of America September 11, 2001, was etched into America's memory when 19 terrorists attacked us with barbarity unequaled in our history. On Patriot Day, we cherish the memory of the thousands of innocent victims lost, extend our thoughts and prayers to their families, and honor the heroic men and women who risked and sacrificed their lives so others might survive. Since 9/11, we have recognized the threat posed by terrorists to the safety of the American people and worked to protect our homeland by fighting terrorists abroad. We are confronting terrorism by advancing freedom, liberty, and prosperity as an alternative to the ideologies of hatred and repression. Our Nation pays tribute to our courageous men and women in uniform serving around the world and the devoted members of our law enforcement, public safety, and intelligence communities at home who work night and day to protect us from harm and preserve the freedom of this great Nation. Seven years ago, ordinary citizens rose to the challenge, united in prayer, and responded with extraordinary acts of courage, with some giving their lives for the country they loved. On Patriot Day, we remember all those who were taken from us in an instant and seek their lasting memorial in a safer and more hopeful world. We must not allow our resolve to be weakened by the passage of time. We will meet the test that history has given us and continue to fight to rid the world of terrorism and promote liberty around the globe. By a joint resolution approved December 18, 2001 (Public Law 107-89), the Congress has designated September 11 of each year as "Patriot Day." NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim September 11, 2008, as Patriot Day. I call upon the Governors of the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, as well as appropriate officials of all units of government, to direct that the flag be flown at half-staff on Patriot Day. I also call upon the people of the United States to observe Patriot Day with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and remembrance services, to display the flag at half-staff from their homes on that day, and to observe a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 a.m. eastern daylight time to honor the innocent Americans and people from around the world who lost their lives as a result of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eighth day of September, in the year of our Lord two thousand eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-third. GEORGE W. BUSH
