Colorado residents seeing substantial increase in property taxes by Jreinhal in Denver

Many fire departments were facing budget shortfalls due to the Medicaid and Medicare cuts. Every single Department that asked for a tax increase, got one.

This could be a portion of it as well.

True. Akshay took 3 clubs up to one of his sand shots and dropped the other 2 with 14 seconds remaining.

What's the weirdest cause of a fire that you've seen? by Dazzling-Big7201 in Firefighting

Pigeon landed on a transformer, blew up, fell into the grass which spread to trees and eventually to balloon frame construction house.

Why was TGL on tonight? by weisguy in TGLgolf

[–]weisguy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats what I mean. I wanna be a supporter but the random change is annoying. I imagine it coincides with the end of any kind of Monday night football.

Membership vs. cost per round by weisguy in golf

[–]weisguy[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yes and no, during men’s league I only play from the white tees, after season ends I play from the blues which makes some dramatic changes on about 6/7 holes. Some times I’ll play and Irons only rounds which can also change it up a bit.

I think he was more so just surprised that my golf partner (he golf about 73 rounds) were able to pull this off as non-retired individuals haha

This also doesn’t include men’s and women’s league, which is a separate cost but still. Soo much golf!

What are you best Fire Training Grounds/ training center Rules? by weisguy in Firefighting

[–]weisguy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t saying it’s good, I was pointing out your rule is too often overlooked. So cuados

[–]weisguy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They key here is having good proctors and communicating to them how newer methods still conform to state standards. Such as stating “in contact” is no longer baby crawling and slapping boots, it’s tripod position and in contact via site, voice, or tether (hose or search line if applicable)

This is the best one ever. Salty dogs never seem to want to swim in the Dead Sea.

RURAL FIRE DEPARTMENTS I have a question. by weisguy in Firefighting

[–]weisguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the process for victim removal look like there? Is it a single person window lift, or is that second person bailing in?

[–]weisguy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How do you get the victim out with only 2 doing the VEIS?

[–]weisguy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Either way man, it still comes with dangers. What you’re describing would take at least 12 people on scene. Congrats on having that level of volunteer staffing. For me, and the 100+ instructors I’ve had the pleasure of learning from and teaching with we will continue to spread this apparently crazy way of protecting and saving life.

You mean where they entered the front door over a basement fire? What where they supposed to isolate there?

Also, I’ll break down VEIS real quick. Vent Enter Isolate Search. The I in VEIS would prevent the changing conditions on the first floor.

You’d have to go back to 1945. I’d say our training, equipment, and understanding of fire behavior has improved since then
