There's always time to support the Fire Department, have you got your tickets yet?? #bordenkinkora #malpeque #fireservice

Backchecks and misconduct processes
Meant predators were allowed in the services
To the shock of the crew
One acted out rape too
Discrimination ran wild and dispresses

I am honored to be invited to officially drop the puck for the Annual First Responder Hockey Tournament. A moment of silence was held in memory of David Walsh, who passed away today. David was a member of the Fire Service for 25 years. Thanks to all the first responders across our Island for all you do and to the family members. #fireservice #firstresponders #thankyou

Farts are such a valuable resource when teaching about combustible gas sensors. Combustibility, cross sensitivity, sensitivity of different cgs technologies,...
Also: any suggestions why my 10,6eV pid sensor deels to be detecting methylene chloride (ie=11,37eV) just fine? Product degradation?

Just submitted our paper 'Toward Adopting AI to support Situational Awareness in Emergency Response' to #HHAI2023

Another milestone in raising awareness of the challenges that new technology will bring in emergency response, don't be mistaken, I think we SHOULD use the technology, but we should be very aware of the consequences of the technology.

Thanks to my co-authors Dr. Richard Gasaway, CSP, Ilaria Tiddi, Gerke Spaling

I was an on-call firefighter here on Dartmoor for 7 years, during which time it was a big part of my life, and resulted in some of the best but almost some of the most difficult experiences in my life.

I left 4 years ago - I loved it, but it had become too difficult to balance alongside running a business and family life.

Finally starting to sort and edit photos of that time - would like to do something with them, but not sure quite what yet.

If public services require minimum service levels for the purpose of trade union disputes then why should they not be defined for general delivery of services and known by everyone?

Perhaps, it would be difficult to define minimum service levels currently without initiating whatever sanctions on the delivery agencies for not being able to meet them.
