  5. A nice cianti and some fava Beans!!!!!!
  6. Better let the mail guy go, wouldn't want em going postal on ya!!!!
  7. Recently our Village passed a resolution to adopt the NIMS system of command and control of all incedents. (ABOUT TIME!!!!) Within our F.D. we have set in place guidelines for whom has to get certified (ALL) and at what level. FF must have 100 and 200. Line officer 100, 200 & 700. Chief Officers 100, 200, 340, 700 & 800. The training and exams are free on the FEMA web site & they mail you a certificate within 10 days. It is also my understanding that by Sept. all first responders within the State of New York must be NIMS compliant. I know it is going to be a factor on all grant applications from now on. I just wanted to ask if your Dept. has a set of guidelines and how they are implementing the NIMS system.
  8. Wow, you must have taken your spelling and grammer right out of the Mets how to write a contract handbook!!!! LOL
  9. Had a leatherman in my pocket, but it was impossible to operate with gloves on. Since a class with Mr. 2000 I carry a decent size wire cutter and a spring loaded knife, with a curved tip so I can't stab myself or puncture my gear while reaching behind my to cut something away.
  10. I googled firefighter games online, quite a few came up, but this on cracked me up!! http://www.mofunzone.com/online_games/fire_fighter.shtml#
  11. Every few days somebody posts a LODD, from overexertion/heart attack. Physical fitness is the key!!! As everybody knows we take our bodies from 0-60 in 2.0 seconds. In bed one minute, then within 10 minutes we are placing demands on our bodies that the average person wouldn't dream of doing. I am a member in a not very busy Dept. It is very easy to get complacent about my physical conditioning. That complacency could kill me !!!! (or any one of us) We are very fortunate in our Dept. The entire top floor of our building is a full size gym. We leave 1/2 as a basketball court/pt area and the other 1/2 is full of cardio, strength, and other assorted pieces of fitness equipment. Most of the equipment was used and donated to us by residents. We recently implemented a P/T program 3 days a week. Especially targeting the cardio aspects of fitness. We throw on some packs, grab some tools or maybe an apartment pack and do some stairs. (the first time I did this my calfs hurt for 3 days). The turnout has been good and getting better. We keep the workout tough but loose, if you need to take a break, take a break. It is all about getting healthier then you are now, not competing against each other!!! The progam has started to become contagious among the members. We are feeling better, more confident, and never mind the $$$$$ we save on not having to pay for a gym.

  13. In our Department we just ran into a wall when it comes to Haz-Mat training. We have applied to Camp Smith for Several of our members to take the intro to fire officer training starting on Feb 10. It turns out that the old basic, essentials, intermediate and andvanced classes did not cover any haz-mat first reponder ops. while the newer FF1 course does. It turns out that Haz-Mat first responder Ops is a pre-req for the Intro to fire officer class. We tried to register and take the course at DES, but as allways if you did not sign up within the first hour of the listing - forget about it. So here is what we are looking for: A certified instructor to come to us. We are willing to pay whatever the going rate is per student or per class. We have a projector and screen set-up for a lap top. Let us know whatever else is needed. Hope to hear from someone soon.
  14. I was doing a little research on Christmas Tree fires with my 9 year old. After watching the video. We had a discussion on maybe it was in our best intrest to get an artificial tree. She was giving me a hard time so we surfed the web and came up with this test done in Detroit http://www.mcta.org/treemyth_mil.pdf After reviewing this page she promised me that she will check the water twice a day, morning and before she goes to bed. I told her that I will buy a real tree this year, but as soon as the needles dry out the door it goes!!!!!
