Plan of attack Changing from an offensive to a defensive attack
NFPA Journal®, January/February 2008
An offensive attack on a fire is one of the most efficient ways to save lives and property and as such is preferable whenever it can be safely conducted. On arrival, a fire department may encounter conditions that require a defensive attack. However, there are instances when fire fighters must take part in both—when an attack that begins in an offensive mode is changed to a defensive attack due to deteriorating conditions.
Experienced Incident Commanders (ICs) recognize conditions indicating when the initial attack should be defensive or when changing conditions dictate a change in strategy. Defensive attacks are usually conducted when the building's structural integrity is questionable, fire conditions or other hazards prevent entry, or the risk to fire fighters is too great in terms of what can be saved.
It's essential that company and chief officers are proficient in applying risk-versus-benefit principles when making the offensive/defensive decision. When the fire is not immediately extinguished, building conditions often deteriorate to a point where occupant survival is improbable and structural collapse becomes more likely. When occupant survival is unlikely or when all building occupants have been safely evacuated, the life-safety benefit is no longer a factor. At this point the IC should reevaluate the risk-versus-benefit analysis. If a decision is made to continue an offensive attack when the occupants' lives are no longer in danger, the IC must closely monitor the extinguishment progress. If the fire continues to grow, a decision may be made to switch to a defensive strategy.
During an offensive attack the safety officer and IC may make a joint decision to "start the clock," meaning that, after a specified period of time, they will reevaluate the operation. If they determined that the fire is not being brought under control, the IC will call off the offensive attack and reposition fire fighters into a defensive mode. For example, the clock could be set at 10 minutes for a fire that is self-venting through the roof. During the 10-minute period the IC and safety officer closely monitor the situation, and if conditions warrant, could decide to change to a defensive attack at anytime. If units are successful in containing the fire within 10 minutes, the operation will probably continue in the offensive mode. However, if the total volume of fire is not significantly reduced after 10 minutes, a change in strategy to a defensive attack will be initiated.
Changing from an offensive to a defensive strategy is often a test of the IC's management skills. Whenever possible a managed retreat is preferred over a "drop everything and run" emergency retreat. During a managed retreat, units assigned to search and rescue, as well as other crews working above the fire, retreat to the outside or at least evacuate to a position below the fire, before hose streams are backed out of the building. However, there are times when an emergency retreat is necessary, such as when a building collapse is imminent.
When "starting the clock," the IC should assign someone to the planning section to develop a plan to redeploy companies, apparatus, and equipment. If conditions indicate the possibility of a catastrophic building collapse, all personnel and apparatus should be placed beyond the collapse zone, which is usually 1.5 times the height of the building. In a multistory building the calculated collapse zone could be a considerable distance, sometimes exceeding the width of the street and beyond the effective reach of master streams. Therefore, at times safely and effectively applying water to the building of origin may not be possible. This may lead to a nonattack decision, in which the building of origin is written off as a total loss in favor of protecting exposures.
A defensive attack generally requires fewer personnel than an offensive attack. Therefore, fire fighters may not be assigned to a specific task once defensive streams are in position. When this is the case, unassigned fire fighters have a tendency to take action and freelance. Often this freelancing involves redeploying handheld hose lines that were used during the offensive attack. Many of the fires we studied show fire fighters standing near a structure that is in danger of collapse using a totally ineffective small diameter hose line.
Offensive and defensive strategies should never be conducted in the same building at the same time. However, there are times when a change in strategy is necessary due to worsening conditions. When changing strategies from offensive to defensive, it is imperative that the IC maintains control and creates a plan for a smooth and safe transition.

Do Want: This Dinosaur Bones Motorcycle
Oh I'd ride it alright, I'd ride it all. night. long. No, no I wouldn't either. I hate driving after dark and motorcycles make me nervous enough as it is. I would lay with it under a big blue tarp in my parents' driveway though. Built by sculptor Jud Turner, the 'Mortalcycle' is a statement about, um, our reliance on fossil fuels? Because there's no bones about THAT! And speaking of no bones: it's boneless buffalo wing day at Wing-Dings! *CRUNCH* Haha -- is, uh, is today not Thursday?

Inside Collection (Course): English Home Language Grade 2
The ICS modules for Grade 3 encourage learners to do extensive reading, both fiction and non-fiction. They are given frequent opportunities to write and develop their vocabulary and language use. These developing skills are supported by techniques and strategies to develop phonic awareness. Word recognition and comprehension skills are practised and phonics systematically introduced and consolidated.
The learning outcomes for Grade 3 are purposefully integrated to enable learners to write about texts which they have listened to, discussed and read.
The topics chosen for the modules are of interest to the Grade 3 learner, within their range of experience and other learning areas, namely, Life Orientation and Mathematics are well integrated.
Learners in Grade 3 use their communication skills more effectively and given the opportunity, these can overcome social, cultural and language boundaries. They become more sensitive to the needs of everyone around them.
All aspects of language learning as described in the learning outcomes and assessment standards for Grade 3 have been covered in these eight ICS modules. By reinforcing, consolidating and applying these supported by the Critical and Developmental Outcomes, the learners will be able to think and reason in their home language.
All learners should work through all eight modules as the phonics and cursive writing requirements are spread over these modules. The educator should however allow learners to complete them at their own pace namely ± two modules per term.
The poem introduces a variety of animals, some wild and some tame, and the story about the sly rabbit introduces the topic of true friends. Discussion of the story is important so understand such abstract terms as dishonesty, loyalty and trust.
Riddles are read and learners have the opportunity to make up their own riddles. Cursive writing continues with the learning of new patterns and letters:
The "u" family consisting of "u" as in use, "ew, "ue" and "ou" as in you.
A letterblock is included to revise all phonic words learnt.
Integration of themes
Should be ensured for both animals and man. Be careful of veld fires, polluting streams and damaging vegetation.
People usually say foxes are sly but this is a story of a sly rabbit. Read it and see whether you agree with the title.
There was once a rabbit that lived in the thickest part of a jungle. He had learnt to use his ears and eyes because there were many enemies lurking nearby who thought rabbit pie was really nice. He could run very fast and he had learnt to run in a zigzag pattern to put his enemies off track. He had many narrow escapes and was nearly caught by a fox, a hyena and a hungry wolf. Fortunately he found a rabbit hole nearby and dived underground just in time.
There were, however, some animals he was not afraid of. He knew the elephant was not a meat eater. He liked the green grass and fresh leaves of the trees. So did the giraffe. The hippopotamus was lazy and seemed to spend most of his time in the water or basking in the sun on the sand banks. And so it happened that the rabbit became very friendly with these large creatures of the jungle.
(to be continued)
1. Why do you think people say foxes are sly?
2. This story is about a sly .......................................................................................
3. Give three reasons why this rabbit could survive in the jungle.
4. Who were his enemies?
5. Who were his friends?
6. Give a reason why he was not afraid of the elephant.
7. Why did he not consider the hippopotamus dangerous?

Assessment Standard 3.3: We know this when the learner reads texts alone, and uses a variety of strategies to make meaning:
3.3.1 reads a printed text fluently and with understanding;
Learning Outcome 4:WRITING: The learner is able to write different kinds of factual and imaginative texts for a wide range of purposes.
Assessment Standard 4.7: We know this when the learner writes legibly.

Da Bomb: "For the more mischievous, there's the Cire Trudon Stink Bomb ($43).

Levitation Is Probably Result Of Black Magic
Crealev, a Netherlands based company, has developed a way to "levitate an open platform with whatever you want on top to a significant height in a stable and resilient way." No word on how it works, but it's allegedly inexpensive (although I find that hard to believe) and requires little power (0.5-0.8 watts for the items in the video). They're just taking custom orders now, but plan to have a line of products available in the future. I actually finished submitting a custom order before writing this, and I just wrote "me" as the object I want levitated. Magic baby! That ass-clown Criss Angel doesn't have shit on this guy.
A very short video of some levitation after the jump.
UPDATE: Another video demonstration added as well.

Parma had Aleandro Rosi sent off with three minutes to go before Jaime Valdes earned them a 1-1 draw against Fiorentina with a stoppage time penalty on Saturday.An eventful Serie A match also saw both sides miss penalties.Fiorentina dominated the opening exchanges and took the lead after 19 minutes when centre-back Facundo Roncaglia advanced unchallenged before launching a long-range shot that flew into keeper Antonio Mirante's top right-hand corner.Parma responded and 10 minutes after the goal nearly equalised when unmarked Alessandro Lucarelli could only head Dorlan Pabon's corner against the post.Fiorentina could have doubled their lead six minutes later when Roncaglia hit the post when he met a Matias Fernandez free kick only six yards out.
Penalty galore
Early in the second half Roncaglia clumsily ran straight through the back of Pabon to concede a penalty but Valdes lamely rolled the ball into the grateful arms of Emiliano Viviano.Stevan Jovetic could have sealed the result for Fiorentina from the penalty spot with three minutes left when Mattia Cassani was brought down when clean through on goal by Rosi who received his marching orders.However, Jovetic tried to clip the ball straight down the middle and saw his shot saved by Viviano's legs.In a breathless finale Carvalho Amauri forced a superb save from Viviano and then a handball by Luca Toni allowed Valdes the chance to equalise from the spot.He duly converted to send the home fans into raptures and leave Fiorentina still looking for their first away win of the season.
Juve star
Fabio Quagliarella scored twice in five minutes to send defending champions Juventus to a 2-0 victory over Chievo Verona in Serie A.
Quagliarella was again the star for Juventus, after rescuing the Bianconeri with a last-minute equaliser against Chelsea in the Champions League on Wednesday.The Italy international broke the deadlock with a stunning strike shortly after an hour and doubled his tally with another impressive goal five minutes later.Juve dominated and would have been several goals up before Quagliarella's double had it not been for the heroics of Chievo goalkeeper Stefano Sorrentino.

Australia v Sri Lanka at Hobart
Sri Lanka tour of Australia
The overriding reaction in the Australian dressing room after Tuesday's last-gasp win against Sri Lanka will have been "Phew."
To win the toss, declare the first innings at five wickets down, then bowl last on an up-and-down pitch was to lay down the law. Failure to enforce it would have tested everybody's patience - captain and coach, selectors and supporters alike. So exasperated was Michael Clarke that he instructed Matthew Wade to whip off the pads and gloves and bowl an over of mediums that were as much instructional as anything else. Wade's pre-tea adventure, with Sri Lanka only four wickets down at the time, included attempts at a bouncer, a yorker and a grubber, i.e. guys, yes, you guys picked to bowl for Australia, pull a finger out.
Clarke admitted to thoughts of Adelaide and the ghost of Faf du Plessis. How could he not? The parallels were there. A match seemingly in the bag but on a pitch offering precious little sideways movement, with a bowler out of action, a chance or two gone begging and a stubborn opponent sensing a miracle. Of course, Sri Lanka are not a patch on South Africa at the momeht. But the mind does funny things.
Unshaven beneath the famous green cap, wrapped in long-sleeve wool and with hands often warmed by his pockets, Clarke's animation through the afternoon was a show of its own. He had Adelaide within him, eating away, the damn injustice of it. Head thrown back in disbelief, the ribbed irony in moments of misfortune, the hidden furiousness at sloppiness by his own men, then the umpires, the DRS, the slow pitch, the scattered showers, the ticking clock... Adelaide, Adelaide, drip, drip, Adelaide.
Thank the almighty for Peter Siddle, he of the coal face. Splendidly embattled, Siddle kept coming, like the Black Knight on horseback in Monty Python's Holy Grail: "Think you've got me now, do you?" says the Black Knight, approximately. "Listen, you idiot," replies King Arthur, who is cutting him to shreds, "you've got no arms left." "Just a flesh wound," says the Black Knight.
Never mind the dry mouth, the tight hamstrings, the aching joints. This Victorian has a soaring heart and a deep soul. Siddle is as likely to give in as Julia Gillard. Even Mitchell Starc could see that. Inspired by the spiritual leader of the attack and stung by the humiliation of Wade's six balls of high-octane dross, Starc suddenly bowled fast. A wind of change blew through him. He bowled so fast that batsmen were ducking and weaving and calling for attention. Simple as it sounds now, the full ball - good length, half volley, yorker or full toss - took on an entirely new meaning. "Hey buddy, wanna lunge forward to me now?"
As far as a spectator can feel sorry for a cricketer, you felt sorry for Rangana Herath. All those big names afore him and only one proper strike to the body. Angelo Mathews' body. Now here was little, portly Herath fending for his life and the match. He didn't last, nor did the match. Starc was brilliant, and from the time that became clear, his captain took it a little easier on himself. Phew.
It was a good match, if something of an anti-climax after the hardcore series against South Africa. The Sri Lankans did particularly well to prolong it given the mood of the pitch. For Australia it answered few questions and brought more injuries | |||
It was a good match, if something of an anti-climax after the hardcore series against South Africa. The Sri Lankans did particularly well to prolong it given the mood of the pitch. For Australia it answered few questions and brought more injuries.
The weather was, well, English. The crowds were anything but crowds, more sprinklings of spectators among whom were schoolchildren bussed in for the buzz. Hobart has much in its favour but that alone does not justify the ownership of a Test match. The ground will surely be full for the one-day game in January. Familiar?
And it was a poor match for the DRS through no fault of its own. Sri Lanka used it badly, or supposedly tactically. Australia used it when all else failed. Once, Clarke could be heard on the stump microphone saying, "It was going over" or "He hit it", or some such thing, but still bowed to the pleas of his bowler. Clarke was right, incidentally. Jayawardene appeared almost amused by his team's uselessness with it. In the first innings poor Herath, yes him again, was on the wrong end of a shocker because the great and good before him had used up the quota.
The DRS was introduced to rid the game of really bad decisions - "howlers" as the cliché goes. Sportsmen are notorious for seizing the main chance, and cricketers are doing so - at least most of them are - in an attempt to mitigate their own error, not that of the umpire. It is a default position for the good player and an offer of hope for the mediocre. Kumar Sangakkara turned to it three times. He had to. It is an obligation to the team and the nation. If the best batsmen can have two or three lives, they must. This is common sense. Imagine Sir Donald Bradman's average with the DRS. Twice it went with Sangakkara, the third time it did not. Others, less worthy, pay the price. The system stutters because of it.
Just as disconcerting is the time the DRS takes to reach a verdict. "Dot every i, cross every t" seems to be the instruction. It's a dog's dinner. Cut to the quick. If it is an lbw shout let us first see if the ball is hitting the stumps and work back from there, not spend an age scrutinising Hot Spot. Hot Spot should be lbw's last reference, not its first, unless the on-field umpire specifically says to the third umpire that the batsman might or might not have hit the ball.
It is unlikely that the game will go back in time with the use of technology, so the challenge is to improve what it has. Cricket is not a perfect science, nor is television coverage. The quest should not be for perfect decision-making, rather for the elimination of appalling decisions that may unfairly determine the outcome of a match. If the ICC works within that parameter, it may establish more satisfactory outcomes. Who knows, even India might welcome it then.

Ditto.... simply can't figure why or how; stable rankings (tested across country ips); stable traffic, yet......:(

Apocalyptica is a Finnish cello metal band, composed of classically trained cellists and, since 2005, a drummer. Three of the cellists are graduates of the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, Finland. Their music features elements from classical music, neo-classical metal,thrash metal, and symphonic metal.
Apocalyptica was formed in 1993 when four cellists, Eicca Toppinen, Paavo Lötjönen, Max Lilja, and Antero Manninen gathered to play Metallica covers at Sibelius-Academy.They performed 1995 in an after-Christmas party as a "Jailhouse Band" at the Teatro Heavy Metal Club.That evening the line-up was Toppinen,Lilja,Manninen and Perttu Kivilaakso- who was about to join the band permanently later,at 1999. Among the audience was Kari Hynninen, who worked for the independent label Zen Garden Records. After listening to Apocalyptica's set, Kari Hynninen signed them on the spot to Zen Garden Records.

Really had a chance to experience the intensity of a true boxing rivalry. The crowd was into it and the atmosphere was amazing. I wasn't able to see cotto at MSG when he fought Mosley. But you can see how much beating mosley really turned cotto into just a better and evolving fighter. I really hope the fight with Margorito and Cotto happens over here on the east coast. Can't wait!!!
Outstanding fight, it definitely exceeded my expectations.
This was a surprise for my husband for his first fathers day and we both enjoyed the experience
This is my first time going to a boxing event and it was a great. I would defenetly do it again.

Comments about Twice As Fun Ms.Santa Reversible Women's Costume:
I have been looking for this costume for over 2 years. It was always out of stock. Finally i was able to order it this year in a Medium and Large to try on for size. The medium fits well on top but too tight for women with hips. The large is just too big for a petite person. Overall a very cute look but don't expect what you see in the picture. The zippers are a horrible design. There are two, instead of a "reversible" zipper, which made it difficult to put on without help. Not ideal if you plan on changing the look during or between parties.

The latest speaker in this line is the Ember ($4200/pair) a two-way using a 6" Torrent driver designed and made by Totem. Driven by Boulder electronics, a pair of Embers produced a full-range sound, with the sort of bass that made you wonder if there was a subwoofer in the system. Not bad for a 6" driver!

Load an EPUB file in iBooks Video Transcript
^M00:00:00 [ Music ] ^M00:00:11
>>Apple's iBooks app offers a selection of thousands of popular titles as well as a deep catalog of free public domain books but what people don't know is that in addition to the iBooks Store downloads you can also transfer any unprotected EPUB format books onto your virtual bookshelf from your computer. To try this out get your hands on an iBooks compatible device and make sure the free iBooks app is installed. The iPad is the first device to support iBooks but any iPhone or iPad Touch or an IOS4 will also work. Next, connect the device to your computer and launch iTunes. If you haven't already noticed the latest version of iTunes includes a library folder called Books which includes audio books as well as any iBooks you synced over from your device. Just like your music and video folders you can drag and drop media here to add it to your library. Apple will adding PDF support for iBooks soon but for now let's hunt down an EPUB book and add it to our library. The two most common places to find free unprotected EPUB books online are Project Gutenberg and Google Books. After you've located the title that you want, save it somewhere convenient and then drag the file into iTunes. The EPUB file should show up under the iTunes Books folder fight away but since no one wants to read a book without cover, let's add one so it doesn't look odd in your virtual bookshelf. Find the file, right click on it and select Get Info. Under the artwork tab you'll find a window where you can drag and drop cover art. A quick search for the book title using Google Image Search gives a variety of book covers that you can just drag and drop out of your browser window and into the iTunes artwork box. After that, hit OK. Finally, to sync the new book to your device go into your books tab for your connected device and check the box for your new book or simply set it to sync all books. Hit the Update or Sync button and you're all done. Now, you've circumvented the iBooks Store and loaded your own EPUB book into the iBooks app. For CNET.com I'm Donald Bell.

Olympian Labs DIM -- 100 mg - 60 Capsules
Good Price from Vitacost, good basic DIM product .
July 21, 2012
Didn't notice much
You're probably better off just eating broccoli.
December 31, 2010
This works
I read about "absorbable Dim" and how other products were not as good etc. I have been using this for the past 2 weeks and it works very well even though it is not "absorbable". I have had no side effects whatsoever and will recommend this product. No soy too. The price is unbeatable!!!
October 25, 2010
Good solid DIM
I have used 3 brands of DIM, this is good high mg's and it works. I also take Breast D for high mg DIM with calcium D-glucorate. There is debate whether DIM needs to be bio-available to be absorbed, until it is confirmed I take a higher MG and figure my body is absorbing a good bit of it. I take this with Maca to control menopause symptoms, especially hot flashes.
June 13, 2010
Yay...no Soy...!
As this one reviewer said, I am glad to have found a product with no Soy in it since I have a problem with it. Plus it works great...!

Why Altria Is Poised to Outperform
Monday - 1/21/2013, 8:15pm  ET
Based on the aggregated intelligence of 180,000-plus investors participating in Motley Fool CAPS, the Fool's free investing community, tobacco giant Altria has earned a respected four-star ranking.
With that in mind, let's take a closer look at Altria and see what CAPS investors are saying about the stock right now.
Altria facts
Headquarters (Founded) |
Richmond, Va. (1919) |
Market Cap |
$67.3 billion |
Industry |
Tobacco |
Trailing-12-Month Revenue |
$17.4 billion |
Management |
Chairman/CEO Martin Barrington |
Return on Capital (Average, Past 3 Years) |
24.3% |
Cash/Debt |
$2.2 billion / $13.9 billion |
Dividend Yield |
5.3% |
Competitors |
Altadis |
On CAPS, 96% of the 8,964 members who have rated Altria believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.
Just last week, one of those Fools, brenoboyle, succinctly summed up the Altria bull case for our community: "Excellent dividend yield, pricing power has led to consistent shareholder returns over time. Most attractively priced relative to peers and 27% voting interest in SABMiller that the market does not seem to be giving credit for."
Of course, this short article doesn't even come close to telling the entire story for Altria. You're in luck, though. The Fool's brand-new premium report on Altria tells all sides of the story for one of the most compelling dividend plays in the market. You can grab your copy now, which comes with free updates for 12 months, by just clicking here.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - The East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney's Office is reassessing its case against Shelna Matamoros in the 2006 asphyxiation death of her 2-year-old stepdaughter now that Cedric Matamoros Sr. - her husband and the child's father - has died.
A grand jury charged both Cedric and Shelna Matamoros with first-degree murder in May 2011 in the death of Malyasia Chante' Matamoros.
District Attorney Hillar Moore's office said last February it would seek the death penalty against Cedric Matamoros, who was being held without bond.
Cedric Matamoros, a long-term dialysis patient, died in early December.
Moore says his office is reassessing the case against Shelna Matamoros and the extent of her culpability in the child's death.

We can stop 'bedroom tax', just like we stopped poll tax - Paul Spooner
Posted: February 20, 2013
|THE ConDem Government's bedroom tax, which is due to be implemented in April, is a further shameful attack on the most vulnerable people in the country in response to the financial crisis created by the banks and financial institutions.
Instead of making those responsible for this crisis pay for it they rob the poor to pay the rich.
More than 5,500 house-holds in this city alone will be hit: individuals, families, children, older people, disabled people, all will suffer from this "poll tax" on the poor.
People will have to decide whether to move or cut back on necessities such as food, heating, etc.
There are insufficient numbers of one-bedroom properties in Hull, meaning the majority of people cannot move even if they want to, resulting in being unfairly penalised.
The opinion of this Government and their apologists on the right and in the media that it is just redressing the imbalance in the housing market and that the cost of housing benefit cannot be sustained beggars belief.
On an average rent of £75 a week in a social tenancy, tenants will have to find £10.50 a week for having one spare room, £18.75 if they have two or more.
The bedroom tax will lead to an increase in overall levels of poverty in the city and an increase in the levels of debt.
It is also likely the bedroom tax will increase demand for food banks.
The bedroom tax will lead to increased levels of homelessness as tenants struggle to make rent payments.
Benefit claimants are going to be hit with a double whammy through changes to council tax benefit being introduced at the same time.
