Death penalty

Any new updates, or new photos you care to share?

Noooooooooo not at all...... If that doesnt work, atlest they can get pizza hut......

Im sure they won't use TL20, and L-20.. They would most likey use L-21 (the current L-20) , and use the TL-20

Three words, COUNTY WIDE SYSTEM...

Great looking shirts mbendel36 PM me please...

At Mamaroneck EMS, all the line officers at a minimalmust be an EMT for a certain amount of years, as well being a member for a certain amount of years. I will agree with what was said here, and echoing the question how can you be a good leader, if you can help your members expand there knowledge? If you yourself are not legaly, and moraly able to preform some duties that only emt can do.

Hey any guys in HFD. What are you guys doing with the old 2163?

Actually, Empress EMS has the one from port chester

That's why onsite is sooo much better... lol

One word comes to mind.. STUPID!! Here are the factors, as I see it. This Volunteer fireman one should of never put on his blue light in the first place. He did do the right thing by calling the police, but why in gods name would you tell someone, who is not a cop one, and two is not in an emergency vehicle to give chase.. Now granted this idiot who hit him should of never ran once he was involved in an accident to begin with. Just an all around stupid situation made worst with the thrill of trying to be a cop, and/or hero.

Mamaroneck Village EMS did, 1,486 calls for the year 2010.. Less then last year, only because we were down to one ambulance for half the year...

Is digital a better system, then conventional radio system.. What makes the difference

Why don't you get a bunch of O2 tanks ( empty) and do an O2 salute when you and your wife walk into the reception area, and they all have scopes around there necks ( wedding party).. And the wedding cake toppers isn't a bad idea too....

I call bull**** on that.... Let be real here.. If the drivers go above 30mph( which should be the maximum speed for driving an emergency vehicle in these weather conditions anyways) YES I'm sure the chains will pop off cause all kinds of scratches on the paint scheme of the pretty ambulance, and may blow a tire or two.. But atlest its better then abandoning your rig!!! O_o... Well all the money NYC gets, and yes they get a lot... You mean to tell me they can't stock up on 4x4 ambulances.. Peekskill vac has one... I hear that thing is a beast in the snow.. Just goes to show EMS will once again never be a major component in emergency services..

So here are some big questions, 1)If and this is a big if.... If this was a slow down by the NYC sanitation, why did they do it, did they get what they wanted ( I believe they are the highest paid, and well respected union in the city), and what are the chances of it happening again.. 2) Did the FDNY*EMS learn its lession. They are one of the largest EMS organization in the US, yet units half there size use chains... How hard would it be to put them on each unit.. 3) Will Mayor doomburg resign.... I hope, I hope, I hope....

Paper PCR's

Took the words right out of my mouth.. lol

As I said when it first happen... He should get death, or bread and water for the rest of his life NOTHING ELSE.. This ANIMAL ruined lifes of all kinds. From Patrick Joyce's Family to his brothers and sisters in the YFD. The Police Officers, Emergency Medical Personal who were all there. MYSELF included. I would love to see this SOB gets what his deserves. Not even a needle, that's to painless. Anyone ever seen the green mile.. When the guard forgot to wet the sponge.. Oopsss... I hope he burns in hell...

I find it amusing that Yonkers can find money for urban renewal projects but they can't find money to hire more cops, and fireman to protect these "Renewal" projects I think Yonkers city government needs to be totally striped from the top down, and they need to start over. It's obvious that the current government has no IDEA what they are doing, and how to spend there money. Maybe the state should take over? Yonkers renewal plan...

642 has done it again..... You rock..

Merry Christmas to all.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QR1y0fF_K1A

Well depending on where the call is, seems to dictate how long it will take to get to a scene. 15:48 ( rounding off to 16 minutes) seems to be excessvie don't you think. How spaced out is the coverage area of this "department" is. I'm sure if someone wants information on that, couldn't they just foil request respond times? In the many departments I am a member of, and work for. I can say respone times on average are between 4-8 minutes. Is there a National reqiured respond time, that all departments have to meet? I thought I read that somewhere..

Also looks like we will know the vote count soon.... Ballot fileling info. I say if the employees want it. Good luck to them.

Well at Empress we do not have binding arbitration ( I believe because we are privite sector) , which is a good thing, in my eyes. I will say this. IAEP has worked very hard this past year and 1/2. I myself as a member of IAEP local R2-20, give them alot of credit. Yes the 13% incress in our contractis good, but don't you think if transcare does go union, there total compensation will go up, all in all benfiting everyone that works in the city as EMS?
