There are a series of equipment a firefighter uses daily. To start off, they have very heavy duty saws in which they can cut through most things you would not think they could

Firefighting tactics, like firefighting itself, has a history step in tradition but must also adapt to modern technology and science to stay relevant. Recently, fire research has provided the fire community with new tactics such as fire flow path, pencilling and transitional attack. While all three tactics have their merit, transitional attack has been shown to benefit both the firefighters and civilians in measurable ways.

The fire escape became more than an emergency exit in a burning building. It is used for everything from outdoor to dining to sleeping and gardening, opening up the home to the surrounding city like a “porch in the sky” or “private get-away”.

The next day on Sunday, February 28 I went to Schilletter Dining Hall at around 3:33 PM. Schilletter was smaller than Harcombe and had a different layout. Schilleter is set in a shape similar to a circle which has the different food stations all around. At first I thought that this place would have more groups of people since it is smaller but it turned out to be the opposite. In schilletter I noticed a larger amount of people isolated from each other. There were more places for people who eat alone to sit because of the layout of the dining hall. It is interesting how the shape and the arrangement of a dining hall can modify how people sit and socialize. Because of the tables being all around people were able to make less contact with each

The owners know that there are two major clubs and at least seven smaller clubs in the city. Many of these small clubs have a poor marketing strategy or none at all. Many have poor security and are not safe at all for people to come in at all. We researched this and will use this to bring these people to our club. The decisions will be made between Javan and the assistant manager.

“Who you gonna call? Ghost Busters” (Brillstein & Reitman, 1984). In 1984, a very popular comedy movie “Ghostbusters” hit the big screen and this quote from the movie seemed to stick in everyone’s head. Today, the question that seems to be raised when there is a crisis or emergency situation is “Who you gonna call? The fire department”. In today’s society, the fire service has become the “catchall” for every kind of emergency. Do you agree? Fighting fire is still a big part of the fire service, “in 2015, every twenty-three seconds a fire department was responding to a fire” (NFPA (Ed.), 2015). However, the fire service has evolved from just “putting the wet stuff on the red stuff” mentality, to a profession of highly trained and skilled firefighters. Ever since the discovery of fire there has been a need for methods to manage it if, and when, it gets out of control. Throughout history, to keep up with the changing environment in which we live, civilization and the fire service have made numerous changes. With fewer fires, and more products being manufactured from plastics and other dangerous chemicals, the fire service must be vigilant in developing new methods to keep firefighters safe and justify their job while providing the most efficient service for the citizens.

Did you know that the earliest form of firefighting took place in Rome in 24 B.C? After almost being destroyed by unruly conflagrations, Rome created a fire department consisting of about 7,000 paid firefighters. Their fire crews responded to and fought fires, and also patrolled the streets with the authority to fine anyone who disobeyed the fire prevention codes (Hashgan). The major piece of firefighting equipment the Roman's used was the bucket, which was passed from hand to hand to deliver water to the fire. Additionally, they used an ax, which was utilized to remove the fuel and prevent the spread of fire, as well as to make openings that would allow heat and smoke to escape a burning building.

The fire service, particularly over the last two decades has taken a deeper interest in firefighter safety and accident prevention. This report examines the smoothbore and fog fire attack nozzles as they relate to firefighter safety. Although these two nozzles are not new to the trade, misapplication, and a lack of understanding past scientific studies by individuals, departments, and fire training centers continues to put firefighters at risk for injury or death. This report concludes that the benefits of the smooth bore nozzle make it a safer, and more

Helena Maria Viramontes grew up in Los Angeles where relatives used to stay and live with her family when making the transition from Mexico to the United States. This is where she got her first taste of the lives of immigrants in this country within the urban barrios. Viramontes's writing reflects this theme along with expressing her political opinions on the treatments of immigrants, especially Chicanos and Latinos. In her short story "The Cariboo Café," Viramontes brings these ideas to life through three sections narrated by different individuals tied into the story.
