  1. Two Minneapolis Firefighters Make Risky Escape from Blaze Courtesy of KSTP-TV Two Minneapolis firefighters are safe after diving from a second story window to escape a burning home. It happened on the 3000 block of California St. NE in Minneapolis early just after Midnight Tuesday. The Battalion Chief said the flames inside were too intense and firefighters were ordered out. No one was injured, but the home is a total loss. Firefighters were able to keep the fire from spreading to other homes. The Red Cross is helping the two families who lived in the home. http://www.kare11.com/video/player.aspx?aid=48152&bw=

  9. Just saw the commercial for Rescue Me Season 3. It returns Wednesday June 13th at 10pm
  10. Yea variety is great, that's why it was good when they had multiple releases each quarter instead of monthly it seemed to provide an opportunity to please most people. However, facts are the FDNY rigs sell out everytime. I too would like to see more variety, perhaps release an additional rig when an FDNY rig comes out since the mold for FDNY rigs are the same
  11. May release, 1/64 FDNY Seagrave Engine 59 Limited to 2004 pieces. $39.99. Ordering opens for club members today I believe.
  12. I believe they are still in business...at least they were a couple months ago because I had ordered something from them a few months ago.
  13. I own it as well, played it and theres like 8 different scenarios. It puts you in control deploying resources as needed. As the scenario progress, mutual aid is added and in some cases can chose from an engine or truck company or such. I would definately recommend it especially since there are few other firefighter games out there

  17. I bought a new laptop with Vista as well, does seem to be a more glorified version of XP. Themes are a little more advanced for a different experience, it does question and ask permission for alot of things, for example when trying to change the clock, you have to click it and then it asks you if you allow it, which des gte a little annoying. Personally havnt had any problems yet, did take a little while to set up though. I have the Home Premium edition and either don't think there's that much of a difference or just havnt figured it all out yet. Could be a little of both.
  18. The same car was at the Haz-Mat incident in Hartsdale at 141 South Central Ave on Nov. 30th.
  19. Anyone heard any further regarding hiring at 60 Control. I received the canvas letter a month ago and havnt heard anything since? What is the latest number they are looking to hire, ive heard from 3-8 with 3 being immediately and possibly more to come later?
