The draft report on consolidation is full of lies and half-truths.

Just curious, what are some of the lies and half truths.

Rest In Peace.

Interesting story about the Poughkeepsie fire chief asking for a demotion. http://www.poughkeepsiejournal.com/article/20100824/NEWS01/100824008/Poughkeepsie-fire-chief-demoted

Katonah Engine 115 at its first fire on Tuesday morning.

George Steinbrenner was a very generous man, and not just to baseball players. In 1982 after attending the funeral for an NYPD officer killed in the line of duty, George started a foundation called the Silver Shields. This foundation gives college scholarships to the children of NYPD and FDNY members killed in the line of duty.

Congratulations to ex-Brewster fire chief Ken Clair on being named Fire Safety Educator of the Year.

Some of you guys love to bash the local media, Lord knows. Where would you get your information from if wasn't for the "Urinal News" and "Snooze 12" Maybe they did have the story a day or two later, but at least they had something.

Did somebody spike the punch at the monster mash.

The photos were not taken by a Journal News photographer. The photos were taken by a person who works for a company called Metromix. If you google Metromix you will see that they supply newspaper websites throughout the country with content such as restaurant reviews and party photos, mostly T & A photos. These two firefighters did nothing wrong. The newspaper did a story because someone outside the newspaper thought this was a big deal and contacted one of the big bosses, and convinced them that a story should be done. The reporter did not want to write the story, knowing it was no big deal, but when your boss tells you to do something, you have to do it.

Rest in Peace Firefighter Joyce. The brotherhood of the Yonkers Fire Department will watch over your family.

He took a class to learn how to run a fire department. Absolutely amazing. Did the mayor take a class on how to run a city....

If I remember correctly that was the moment the building flashed. The reason you see hose lines but few firefighters is that there were crews inside the building and several others outside when it happened.
