Daniel James Jr. was born on February 11, 1920, in Pensacola, Florida. He attended the Tuskegee Institute and instructed African American pilots during WWII. James flew combat missions during the Korean and Vietnam Wars, received the Distinguished Service Medal, and became a four-star general in 1975 (the first African American to achieve this in the U.S. Air Force). James died in 1978 in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
"Nobody dislikes war more than warriors."
Early Life
Daniel James Jr. was born on February 11, 1920, in Pensacola, Florida. Daniel James was the first African American to become a four-star general in the U.S. Air Force. He graduated from high school in 1937 and went on to college at the Tuskegee Institute, a famous African-American school.
During college, James, nicknamed "Chappie," became interested in flying and became a pilot through the Civilian Pilot Training Program. After completing the program, he stayed on as an instructor. Facing many obstacles, including the racial prejudices of the times, James fought for a place at military flight school. Passing the required tests with ease, he completed his training in 1943. During World War II, he served primarily as an instructor, teaching other African Americans in the 99th Pursuit Squadron.
Later Life
It was during the Korean War that James began flying combat missions—more than 100 in all. For these achievements, he received the Distinguished Service Medal. James also served in the Vietnam War and flew more than 75 missions during that conflict. In 1970, he became the assistant deputy secretary of defense in the area of public affairs.
Over the course of his career, James was promoted several times, finally becoming a four-star general in 1975. Along this promotion came even greater responsibilities. James was made the commander of NORAD/ADCOM at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado. In this position, he oversaw air defense forces for the United States and Canada. In his last post, he served as a special assistant to the chief of staff.
Final Years
Daniel James Jr. retired in 1978. He died on February 25 of that same year, in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
A trailblazer with a career that spanned three wars, Daniel James Jr. stands as an example of military grace and professionalism. He is remembered for once stating, "Nobody dislikes war more than warriors." During his lifetime, he received many military and social honors, including the George Washington Freedom Foundation Medal in 1967 and in 1968.

Judged: 2 2 2 Because we elect presidents; NOT KINGS!!! |
Judged: 2 2 2 If so,do you understand what a Constitutional Republic means? |
Judged: 6 6 6 ONLY those portions of the law that OBAMA chooses to enforce. |
Judged: 4 4 3 --his so called war on poverty ,.. that's when the government started spending money it didn't have ,.... LBJ and the democrats concocted a grand scheme,...- " trade welfare payments for guaranteed votes " and their scheme has worked out very well ,... the GOP is fading away the American middle class is dead,... this is the last generation ,.. America is slowly dying ,... in the next 20 years the welfare class will take total charge ,.. the big cities will be nothing crime ridden ghettos ,...just like Detroit,.. the nations wealth will be squandered ,..inorder to feed the so called ' poor people ' who are unwilling or incapable of working this death spiral is inevitable ,.. its liken to stage 3 cancer ,...and unless this is reversed immediately ,.. the patient is doomed and you can blame 98% of it on the liberal democrats , |
Judged: 6 6 6 Many of us worry you are completely correct. None in Washington, Congress , the administration seem to have the sense or the ability to correct what has been created.To live within ones own means seems to have been forgotten.To take care of the needy is great, but to require the needy to try to help them selves also makes sense. Where was Obama`s common sense when he started giving the illegals food stamps, housing, and now SS#?Where is the common sense to require the people receiving these gratuities to be looking for work -if able? Why imvite the illegals in to this Country when this Country has to borrow the money to take care of them? Dumb gets dumber. |
Judged: 5 4 3 Doesn't matter anyway, we're all slaves. We've allowed them to totally rape us of all our rights and pretty much all our money in one way or another and soon they'll be rolling in the total police state for those who don't like it. We haven't had a real president that wasn't run by criminals since Kennedy and they killed him so there you go.... It's now the people's responsibility to fix it because we are the ones who allowed it to happen in the first place. The founders gave us every tool possible to prevent this and we fell asleep at the wheel. Most importantly, we're trading our liberties for security and a nanny/police state. One founder in particular warned us that if we did that, we deserve what we get. They new that power ALWAYS corrupts and they gave us the tools and checks and balances. We've stood by and allowed those checks and balances to be ignored and taken away. Next it WILL be our guns and hence, our last tool to prevent this from getting far worse. You're all fools arguing over something like this when we should all be pulling together and reminding these criminals who the boss really is. "We the People". What are you prepared to do? |
Judged: 5 5 5 She got what she had comin' |
Judged: 9 9 8 The wife of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) confirmed in an interview with The New York Times what the tea party star's opponents have insinuated gleefully for weeks: The most vocal opponent of Obamacare enjoys a high-priced health plan through investment bank Goldman Sachs. "Ted is on my health care plan," Heidi Nelson Cruz, who has worked in the firm's management division for eight years, told the paper in a story published Wednesday. Cruz's plan through Goldman appeared to be an uncomfortable fact for the conservative senator as he lambasted the health care reform law and helped drive what would become a two-week government shutdown. In an exchange during Cruz's 20-hour anti-Obamacare marathon on the Senate floor in September, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) tried unsuccessfully to get Cruz to admit where he gets his own coverage. Will the senator from Texas for the record tell us now -- and those who watched this debate -- whether he is protected and his familys protected? Durbin asked. Cruz deflected the discussion toward an uninsured diabetic woman that Durbin had been talking about earlier. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/23/ted-... |

Matt Cullen will return to the ice tonight as the Minnesota Wild take on Calgary.
Cullen missed three games with a groin injury, and the Wild went 1-2 with him out of the lineup.
Cullen has tapered off some since a blistering start. He has six goals and 13 assists in 27 games.
He's still playing well, and he's third on the team in scoring.
However, the team is in dire need of a winning streak.
The Wild are 13-13-4, and only one point from last place in the Western Conference's Northwest Division.
Not good.
Star Tribune Wild beat writer Michael Russo wrote a blog about the dire situation Minnesota is in right now. You can read it by clicking here. You have to scroll down a bit, but it's a good read. It's the one titled "Wild, one point from dead last in the division, find new ways to shoot themselves in the foot."
He says he took some heat from players about it on Saturday before the game against Calgary.
That's all for now.

I may pick up a Brandon in the 6-9 mm range just to answer the question of how they perform, especially on planetary detail, compared to the Delos. Lastly, I have learned to trust my own eyes. I believe I can see subtle differences in detail quite well, and have learned to base my opinions on eyepieces in what I see through them.

Definition of amputee in English:
Syllabification: am·pu·teePronunciation: /ˌampyəˈtē
- A person who has had a limb amputated.More example sentences
- In the past few years he has turned his attention to achieving similar results for upper and lower limb amputees and has generated similar controversy.
- For example, your pain could be similar to the phantom pain some amputees feel in their amputated limbs.
- As the number of amputees grew, so did improvements to artificial limbs.

Our results provide strong evidence supporting a link between autism and the aluminum in vaccines. A literature review showing toxicity of aluminum in human physiology offers further support. Mentions of autism in VAERS increased steadily at the end of the last century, during a period when mercury was being phased out, while aluminum adjuvant burden was being increased. Using standard log-likelihood ratio techniques, we identify several signs and symptoms that are significantly more prevalent in vaccine reports after 2000, including cellulitis, seizure, depression, fatigue, pain and death, which are also significantly associated with aluminum-containing vaccines.
The authors also noted a strong corralation between autism and the MMR vaccine which they feel may be partially explained by increased sensitivity to acetaminophne used to control fever.

Crappies rank high on the must-fish list among NAFC members, and fortunately, they're common across much of the continent. But even on top waters, broad-shouldered slabs spanning 14 inches or longer and topping 11/2 pounds can be hard to come by, especially consistently..
Big rivers like the Missouri, Ohio and Mississippi are legendary for the monstrous cats they produce. But bigger isn't always better.
Catfish are known to consume odd things for their meals, so it is no wonder that some of the better baits to catch these fish are quite out of the ordinary.
The array of outboards offered in 2010 proves that manufacturers have not been idle. Research and design engineers across the board focused on reducing overall weight, boosting power and increasing fuel efficiency, to the benefit of anglers.
Minn Kota's i-Pilot Changes The Game
Sometimes complex trumps simple when it comes to bringing crappies to the boat.
Leading Pros Refine This Proven Presentation To Catch More Bass When All Else Fails.
Ethanol may someday fill our tanks, but the cost might be our fisheries' health.
NAFC friend, Frank Scalish, is best known for his achievements as a professional bass fisherman, but when the weather cools, the tourneys are over and the last bass has been weighed, he dons waders, grabs his fly gear and prepares to spend the fall and winter months guiding steelhead fishermen on any number of rivers.
Here are three simple options for preserving single eggs, skein chunks and spawnbags.
The crappie is sportfishing's undisputed King of Spring. Here's where to find 'em shallow in the spawning season, and when.
NAFC staff and members have caught some big walleyes over the years—some even on video—but this trophy walleye video courtesy of PK Lures—takes top honors. The quantity and quality of fish caught during this segment is astounding. You've got to see it for yourself!
Follow this water temperature roadmap to big crappies all year.
Sixty-seven lakes and reservoirs, in 19 states, hold specially tagged fish that could turn into cash or prizes for lucky anglers! Read on!

► Dkk1 antagonizes Wnt activity in NPCs ► Loss of Dkk1 increases NPCs, neuronal progeny, and neuronal activity in DG ► Loss of Dkk1 has beneficial effects on affective behavior in the tail suspension test ► Loss of Dkk1 in NPCs restores DG neurogenesis and cognition in old age
Memory impairment has been associated with age-related decline in adult hippocampal neurogenesis. Although Notch, bone morphogenetic protein, and Wnt signaling pathways are known to regulate multiple aspects of adult neural stem cell function, the molecular basis of declining neurogenesis in the aging hippocampus remains unknown. Here, we show that expression of the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf-1 (Dkk1) increases with age and that its loss enhances neurogenesis in the hippocampus. Neural progenitors with inducible loss of Dkk1 increase their Wnt activity, which leads to enhanced self-renewal and increased generation of immature neurons. This Wnt-expanded progeny subsequently matures into glutamatergic granule neurons with increased dendritic complexity. As a result, mice deficient in Dkk1 exhibit enhanced spatial working memory and memory consolidation and also show improvements in affective behavior. Taken together, our findings show that upregulating Wnt signaling by reducing Dkk1 expression can counteract age-related decrease in neurogenesis and its associated cognitive decline.

'Saturday Night Live': Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a ninja; Paul Rudd is afraid of donkeys
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is hosting "Saturday Night Live" Sept. 22, his second time hosting the show, with musical guest Mumford & sons. In the promos, "Jogolev," as Jason Sudeikis calls him, alternately promises to cut himself in half during his monologue, tells us that he's a ninja and then decides to do a sequel to "Looper" called "Scooper," where he goes back in time and picks up all the dog poop he didn't pick up. It's a redemption story.
Below, Paul Rudd plays seven minutes in heaven with Mike O'Brien.
Rudd is asked about the journey of Polish Jews in America and also says his favorite dessert is cherries jubilee. He also says he does not laser his butthole hair. He uses an old-fashioned straight razor. Dry. "It's the way [his] papa taught [him]." He's also afraid of donkeys.
Okey dokey.

Living Room/Dining Room Makeover: From Gutted to Gorgeous
Candice Olson transforms an empty large main floor into a great room — in more ways than one.

The room was really just one big space, so I had to create a sense of flow. I managed this by dividing the room up into various zones: a foyer, a living area and a dining room.
I started with the foyer. I wanted to create a little entrance area, but without walls, I had to get creative. So, I fashioned a funky privacy panel out of silver ball chain on a track that separates this area from the rest of the room, and added a shallow armoire.
Next, I got to work on the living room. The room has one very long wall, so I decided to make it multi-functional and installed a modern stainless steel raised fireplace filled with polished pebbles. On either side of the fireplace, I created a rustic statement with dark wood shelving, and with cork and foil wallpaper that has the look of birch bark.
For furniture, I chose a charcoal, three-seater sofa. The sofa sits opposite two modern lounge chairs in white leather. They all sit atop a graphic area rug that incorporates the various colors in the room.
I then got to work on the dining room. The area boasted a gorgeous bay window, but it looked smack dab onto their next door neighbor's brick wall. I created some focal interest with blinds that have a geometric pattern and put up some beautiful charcoal drapes with an organic stripe.
In the dining room, I married the traditional and modern with a new barn-board table and several white swivel chairs. In addition to a ceiling full of recessed lights, I also put up a conventional chandelier with a contemporary twist that helps define the dining room.
After a few final accents and accessories, the room was completely transformed. By delineating living zones, combining modern and traditional finishes, and installing a host of fabulous and functional touches, this room went from an empty shell to a wonderful home sweet home. Now that's divine!

My research centers on the period of late medieval history in England, specifically the reigns of Richard II (1377-99), Henry IV (1399-1413) and Henry V (1413-1422). I have written extensively on the political aspects of all three reigns and also have published widely on the topic of late medieval administrative history.I have written a monograph on the military aspects of the Lancastrian Revolution of 1399 for Brill:Three Armies in Britain: The Campaigns of Richard II and the Usurpation of Henry IV, 1397-1399 (Brill, 2006)I have contributed to and co-edited five books on late medieval English studies:

I have just had an article about the train; "Forging a Community with Rails: Ames, Iowa Agricultural College and the Ames&College Railway, 1890-1896," for the Annals of Iowa, which appeared in their Summer 2012 issue.
I also serve as the Managing Series Editor for Brill's Late Medieval Europe Series, which publishes monographs and collections of essays focusing on political, economic, cultural and religious history of the late Middle Ages.I received my Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1996. My research often takes me to the United Kingdom. I regularly give conference papers in the United States, Britain and Australia/New Zealand. In 2000 I was elected to Fellowship in the Royal Historical Society. This is an international organization of historians only 2,500 in number who have made substantial original contributions to the field of British history.I teach courses on the history of the Hellenistic world, Republican and Imperial Rome, the Early Church, medieval England, and medieval and Reformation Europe.

FQDN change to hints.macworld.com
Honestly, the top motivator in shortening the name was that macosxhints.macworld.com is a lot of characters to type. ---
Jason Snell, Editor, Macworld
FQDN change to hints.macworld.com
Thanks for that, Jason. And to all those who provided thoughtful comments, thanks as well. I'll probably unstick this thread on Monday.
The timing of the change came as a bit of a surprise to me, too. But since I want the site to continue to provide a useful service, and understand something needs to pay for that, I can cope. I'm confident you all can too. I'd also like to pass on a personal favorite hint of mine, for everyone's future consideration when posting comments, on this and the other Hints published here. Yeah, I do take notice. Craig A. P.S. If I thought this was going to turn out like CNet/MacFixIt, I'd have never taken the position. I have friends who were screwed over in that debacle.
Thank You for Reasonable Explanations
I'd also like to join the few users here who accept what Jason and Craig said at face value; and i'll take this opportunity to thank them for really communicating with us on this.
FQDN change to hints.macworld.com
You refer to Mac OS X Hints as just plain "Hints". That the new name, is it?
FQDN change to hints.macworld.com

Photo: Duncan's 55' Bel Air is a thing of beauty
Now that San Antonio Spurs' Tim Duncan has opened up his new car customization business, BlackJack Speed Shop, it means TD will be showing off some of his sweet rides.
Case in point, his 1955 Bel Air.
Check out this photo (via BlackJack Speed Shop) of TD's sweet ride and much like his game on the court, it is a classic beauty proving old school is still the best over any modern car.

Each Precious Hour
Heart of the Night
Her Baby, His Secret
Her Private Bodyguard
His Secret Duchess

Lady Sarah's Son
The Stranger She Knew
Dare arrives at Bonnet's determined to root out information, but is distracted by the presence of a woman whom Bonnet introduces as "Mrs. Carstairs." She's obviously of a bit higher quality than the average gaming-hell whore. Dare is drawn to the rage and despair behind her eyes. Why is she here? What hold does Bonnet have over her? When Lady Luck favors Dare and Bonnet is wagered to the limit, Dare offers to place all bets on single hand of cards. The wager he insists on is the lovely Mrs. Carstairs.
Dare wins and spirits Elizabeth Carstairs away to one of his townhouses. His valet, Ned, points out that Dare already has a mistress and this will only cause unnecessary complications. Besides, she's a strumpet. Dare isn't so sure, though. Elizabeth has the looks and manners of a lady. Why was she with Henri Bonnet?
Dare returns to Paris after settling Elizabeth in his house, but this time, he is seriously wounded while on a self-imposed assassination mission avenging his friend's torture and death. He manages to return to the house where he left Elizabeth, and a bond is forged between Elizabeth and Ned as they care for Dare. Dare begins to fall in love with Elizabeth. She is sure that no good can come of a relationship, having been the mistress of an unsavory man like Bonnet. As Dare and Elizabeth try to sort out their feelings, Dare's brother Ian arrives, and it is he who will help unravel the mystery of the hold Bonnet has over Elizabeth.
My Lady's Dare is a fairly complex novel with layers of plot only touched on here. Elizabeth is an interesting heroine; this is no green girl in the first bloom of love, but a woman who has faced much of the worst life has to offer and who has no illusions about her worth -- or lack of it. Dare's challenge will be to convince her that in his eyes she has value beyond price. And there is no convenient misunderstanding about Elizabeth's background -- she has, indeed, suffered both physically and mentally.
It's sometimes difficult for an author to carry off a plot premise where a nobleman wishes to marry a woman with a shady past and to hell with society's conventions, but here it works beautifully. Dare's work as a spy and sometime assassin has exposed him to the underbelly of society, with the result that he no longer cares much for its conventions. It's entirely plausible. Once he finds he loves Elizabeth, there isn't a moment of self-doubt or care for what others may think. A stronger hero would be hard to find.
My Lady's Dare is a clean, tight, engrossing story featuring two complex people overcoming painful obstacles to find a lasting love. Readers will be pleased to note that this is the first of a trilogy about the Sinclair brothers. We're in for more treats ahead.

The Competitiveness of Puerto Rico's Economy: Reducing the Cost of Doing Business and Improving Labor Market Opportunities |
June 29, 2012 |
William C. Dudley, President and Chief Executive Officer Remarks before the Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce Annual Convention, Fajardo, Puerto Rico* Good morning and greetings from New York City. I sincerely thank the Chamber for giving me the opportunity to address your annual meeting. Unfortunately I am unable to be in Puerto Rico in person, because I have a broken leg and am under doctor's orders not to fly. The good news is that I am on the mend and that I have this opportunity to speak to you via video We at the New York Fed are pleased that Puerto Rico is part of the Second Federal Reserve District that we represent in the Federal Reserve System. We are committed to the people of the Island and to its growth and prosperity. Our commitment is reflected in our ongoing work with our many partners on the Island. Last spring, with the Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce and other local partners, we co-sponsored a forum aimed at helping small businesses in Puerto Rico learn about export opportunities. We have been involved with education on the Island for two decades, including by helping to set up the Alianza. Today we help promote financial literacy through a video competition in partnership with the Puerto Rican Bankers Association. Our banking supervisors work to strengthen the financial system so it can readily supply credit to families and businesses, while our research economists monitor and analyze local economic conditions. This analysis—along with similar analyses from other regions across our nation—feeds into the decisions the Federal Reserve makes on monetary policy. In support of this work, I and other senior officials have traveled to Puerto Rico a number of times in recent years and met with a wide range of stakeholders, including university officials, students, business leaders, entrepreneurs, bankers and government officials. What we learn during these engagements helps to shape our understanding of the Puerto Rican economy and our efforts to support it. I have seen numerous examples of expansion and growth. This gives me confidence that Puerto Rico has the capability to be an economic success story. Nevertheless, these local engagements have also confirmed to me that conditions are not what we want them to be—in particular, growth and expansion are not happening broadly enough. The task of putting the Island on a path of robust, sustainable and inclusive growth remains a work in progress. During my visit here in March 2011, a number of business and community leaders expressed their concern that the economy had loss competitiveness. These local leaders asked if we would look at what might be holding back growth on the Island. Much high quality work has already been done on this subject by local experts. However, they thought it might be helpful for the New York Fed, as an independent third party, to evaluate what might be done to promote competitiveness and productivity on the Island. I readily agreed that we would do so. I commissioned a team of economists from our Research group and other experts from our international and outreach teams, to analyze the challenges facing Puerto Rico. I asked them to put forward some recommendations on how to capitalize on the Island's strengths and restore growth. The report released today on the competitiveness of Puerto Rico's economy, is the product of their work and extensive consultation with local, national and international experts. I have read it closely and commend it to your attention. The report is intended as nonpartisan technical analysis and should be viewed in that vein. Even those who do not agree with every aspect of the analysis, I hope, will acknowledge that this is a serious, good-faith effort to examine, in detail, a number of important issues that deserve attention. Of course, many of these issues can only be considered as part of the political process. It is for the people of Puerto Rico to judge the appropriate trade-offs involved—not me, certainly, or my staff at the New York Fed. In a few moments Jamie McAndrews, executive vice president and director of research, will summarize the report and its recommendations. Before he does so, I would like to share with you my assessment of economic conditions on the mainland and in Puerto Rico. National Economic Conditions Local Economic Conditions The job market remains a trouble spot for the Island's economy. Total employment fell by about 13 percent or roughly 140,000 jobs, between its peak back in 2005 and mid-2010. This is nearly double the 7 percent job loss on the mainland. For the past two years, employment has appeared to have bottomed out, but there has been little evidence of recovery. The Island's unemployment rate has fallen by more than a percentage point over the past year, but this is not necessarily good news. The fall was largely the result of a fall in labor force participation. At 14.8 percent the unemployment rate remains unacceptably high. High unemployment and low labor force participation remain perhaps the biggest challenges to the Puerto Rico economy. Even in relatively prosperous times, the unemployment rate on the Island has been more than double the rate on the mainland. High unemployment and low labor force participation are especially serious problems for young workers and are perhaps the clearest evidence that Puerto Rico needs to make better economic progress. Many of the current problems facing Puerto Rico relate not just to cyclical weakness but to deeper structural challenges. This brings us to the subject of the report we issued today. I want to thank you again for the opportunity to address the Chamber. Jamie McAndrews, executive vice president and director of research, will now talk about the report we released and lay out its findings and recommendations. * Remarks were delivered by Krishna Guha, executive vice president, on Mr. Dudley's behalf. |

Veoh wins copyright infringement lawsuit
Updated at 12:11 p.m. PDT with comment from a Viacom spokesman.
Video-sharing site Veoh defeated a copyright infringement lawsuit Wednesday in federal court, potentially giving Google's YouTube a tool in its defense against a $1 billion lawsuit filed by Viacom, according to a report posted on PaidContent.org.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown and Rep. Timothy J. Ryan Thursday introduced legislation that would restore the full pensions of Delphi salary retirees.
The bill would transfer certain proceeds from the sale of government stock of General Motors to a fund at the U.S. Treasury Department that would supplement payment to the Delphi retirees, the lawmakers said in a release.
"Thousands of retirees in Ohio dedicated their careers to working for Delphi and General Motors, but many of these retirees have yet to receive the pensions they earned and deserve," Brown said.
In 2009, Delphi's bankruptcy cost 20,000 salaried retirees their full pensions - about 1,500 locally - after the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation assumed Delphi's pension plans.
"Delphi's salaried employees were innocent victims of the financial crisis, and I have been working to find a solution for them that is fair and economically responsible," Ryan said. "This bill deserves a 'fast track' to passage."
Congress returned to Washington on Monday for an abbreviated pre-election session.

U.S. Structure Fires in Eating and Drinking Establishments
NFPA Journal® January/February 2011 By Ben Evarts
During the five-year period of 2004–2008, NFPA estimates that U.S. fire departments responded to an average of 8,160 structure fires in eating and drinking establishments per year. These fires caused an annual average of 3 civilian deaths, 100 civilian fire injuries, and $229 million in direct property damage. Reported fires in this occupancy group fell 64 percent from 23,300 in 1980 to 8,370 in 2008.
The following are overviews of recent reports issued by the Fire Analysis and Research Division of NFPA. The complete text of these and many other reports are available at www.nfpa.org/firereports.
NFPA FIRE REPORTS Each NFPA Fire Report subsection contains a variety of reports. Scrolling down the page may be necessary. Occupancies: Get the "Eating and Drinking Establishments" report Occupancies: Get the "U.S. Structure Fires in Office Properties" report Major Causes: Get the "Children Playing With Fire" report
Cooking equipment was involved in more than half of the fires in eating and drinking establishments. Deep fryers, in which 24 percent of all fires occurred, and ranges or cook tops, which were responsible for 10 percent, were the most common equipment involved. Deep fryers also accounted for the largest share of civilian injuries of any type of equipment involved in ignition.
Fires in eating and drinking establishments do not vary dramatically by hour of the day, day of the week, or month of the year. There appear to be peaks for property damage in March, between 3:00 a.m. and 3:59 a.m., and Tuesday, but these are all due to the impact of one fire with unusually high property damage. Even without the impact of this one fire, however, property damage per fire is still higher between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Fifty-five percent of the fires in eating and drinking establishments began in the kitchen or cooking area. These fires caused 59 percent of the civilian injuries and 29 percent of the direct property damage. Eighty-six percent of the fires were confined to the room of origin.
The 5 percent of fires that were intentionally set in these properties caused 10 percent of the direct property damage. In eating and drinking establishments, deaths per 1,000 fires were 100 percent lower and property damage per fire was 73 percent lower when wet pipe sprinklers were present, compared with no automatic extinguishing equipment present.
U.S. Structure Fires in Office Properties
By Ben Evarts
During the five-year period of 2004–2008, NFPA estimates that U.S. fire departments responded to an average of 3,830 office properties per year. The vast majority of these fires, which caused an annual average of 4 civilian deaths, 37 civilian fire injuries, and $108 million in direct property damage, occurred in business offices. Reported fires in this occupancy group fell 65 percent from 10,570 in 1980 to 3,740 in 2008.
Fewer fires occur in this occupancy on the weekends, since they are less likely to be fully populated. The peak times of day for these fires were between noon and 3 p.m. Only 20 percent occurred between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., but these fires accounted for 55 percent of the direct property damage. Similarly, 19 percent of fires occurred on weekends, but they caused 30 percent of the associated property loss. These findings highlight the need for automatic detection and extinguishing equipment to protect these properties when they are not occupied.
Cooking equipment was involved in 25 percent of the fires in office properties. However, only 3 percent of the direct property damage resulted from cooking fires. Electrical distribution and lighting equipment was involved in 13 percent of the fires, resulting in 19 percent of the direct property damage. The 11 percent of fires that were intentionally set caused 18 percent of the direct property damage. Heating caused 12 percent of the fires and 9% percent of the property damage, while smoking materials caused 10 percent of the fires and 6 percent of the property damage.
Although 17 percent of the fires in office properties began in the kitchen or cooking area, these fires caused only 3 percent of the direct property damage. Only 13 percent of the fires began in an office area, but they resulted in 27 percent of the dollar loss. No other individual area of origin accounted for more than 4 percent of reported fires. Eighty-two percent of the fires were confined to the room of origin. Children Playing with Fire
By John R. Hall, Jr.
In 2008, an estimated 53,500 child-playing fires were reported to U.S. municipal fire departments, with associated losses of 70 civilian deaths, 910 civilian injuries, and $279 million in direct damage. Seventy-seven percent of these fires occurred outdoors. An estimated 7,600 fire-play structure fires occurred in the home, resulting in 70 civilian deaths, 780 civilian injuries, and $202 million in direct property damage.
Eighty-three percent of set fires are intentional and do not involve playing. Seventy-seven percent of set fires specifically in home structures do not involve playing.
Sixty-four percent of child-playing home fires are started with lighters or matches. The lighter fires and losses increased from 1980 to 1993, then began declining sharply in 1994, which coincided with the introduction of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission child-resistant lighter standard.
Child-playing match fires have been declining since 1980 and declined faster than child-playing lighter fires after 1994. One reason may be a generally heightened awareness of the child-playing fire problem and growing success in public fire safety education programs, which provided more attention to child supervision and other steps to reduce the child-playing fire problem, and did so at the same time that the lighter standard was being introduced. It is also possible that there is significant miscoding of fire-play with lighters as fire-play with matches—or that there used to be. If there has been a shift from matches to lighters, a point on which we have no information, it could have played a role in the opposing trends seen before 1995.
The leading items first ignited by home fire-play were mattresses and bedding, which accounted for 24 percent of child-playing home structure fires. Other leading items first ignited were papers, in 9 percent of fires; trash or waste, in 8 percent of fires; and clothing, in 8 percent. Two out of five child-playing home structure fires began in the bedroom.
Fatalities in child-playing fires tend to be younger than the firesetters. The median age of fatalities in child-playing home structure fires was just over 5 years, while the median age of child-playing firesetters, where age was reported as a factor, was just over 6 years. Roughly two of every three victims of child-playing home structure fires were 5 or younger. Nonfatal injuries often involve parents or other caregivers, but fatal injuries rarely do. Home Fires Involving Cooking Equipment
By Marty Ahrens
Cooking is, and has long been, the leading cause of home structure fires and civilian home fire injuries. During the five-year period of 2004–2008, U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated average of 154,700 home structure fires in which cooking equipment was involved in the ignition or in which the fire department used an incident type that identified a cooking fire that did not spread beyond the cooking vessel.
These fires caused an average of 460 civilian deaths, 4,850 civilian fire injuries, and $724 million in direct property damage. Overall, these fires accounted for 41 percent of reported home fires, 17 percent of home fire deaths, more than 37 percent of reported home fire injuries, and 11 percent of the direct property damage resulting from home fires.
Ranges or cook tops were the heat sources in 59 percent of reported home fires involving cooking equipment, 89 percent of associated civilian deaths, 77 percent of the reported cooking fire civilian injuries, and 71 percent of the associated direct property damages. Unattended equipment was a factor in 34 percent of reported home cooking fires. Abandoned or discarded material was a factor in 10 percent of these fires. An additional 10 percent were caused by an unclassified misuse of material, while 9 percent occurred when something that could catch fire was too close to the cooking equipment, and 8 percent occurred when cooking equipment was unintentionally turned on or not turned off.
Households with electric ranges have a higher risk of cooking fires than those with gas ranges.
Not surprisingly, 66 percent of home structure fires involving cooking equipment began when cooking materials or food ignited. Clothing was the item first ignited in less than 1 percent of these fires, but clothing ignitions led to 15 percent of the home cooking equipment fire deaths.
Several studies, including the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's 1999 study of range fires, found that frying dominated the cooking fire problem. Frying accounted for 63 percent of 218 range-top cooking-material ignitions in the CPSC study. Eighty-three percent of these food ignitions by frying occurred during the first 15 minutes of cooking.
The statistics on fires involving cooking equipment reported to local fire departments represent a tiny fraction of all home fires involving home cooking equipment. CPSC's 2004–2005 survey of residential fires found that U.S. households handled an average of 4.7 million home fires involving cooking equipment per year without calling the fire department. Roughly one of every 23 occupied households had a cooking fire. The study also found that 102,000 injuries resulted from cooking equipment fires with no fire department presence. Total direct property damage from unreported home fires involving cooking equipment was estimated at $328 million, with an average loss of $70 dollars per fire.
Fifty-nine percent of civilians who were not fatally injured in reported home structure fires involving cooking equipment were hurt while trying to fight the fire, compared to 37 percent of injuries suffered in overall home structure fires. Almost three-quarters of non-fatal reported home cooking fire injuries were minor.
Children under 5 and adults 65 or older faced the highest risk of death from home fires involving cooking equipment. Young children were at much lower risk of a non-fatal fire injury from cooking equipment. However, children under 5 face a much higher risk of non-fire burn injuries from cooking equipment, tableware, and cookware. Children under 5 account for only 7 percent of the U.S. population, but they suffered an estimated 57 percent of the scald burns associated with tableware; 36 percent of the thermal non-fire burns associated with range or ovens; 36 percent of the scald burns associated with ranges or ovens; 34 percent of the thermal non-fire burns associated with grills or barbecues; 31 percent of the scald burns associated with microwave ovens; 11 percent of the scald burns from cookware; and 10 percent of the burns from contact with hot cookware. Winter Fires
The winter holiday season should be a joyous time of year. However, certain types of fires and injuries are much more common during this season.
In 2004–2008, for example, U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated average of 260 home structure fires that began with Christmas trees. These fires caused an average of 12 civilian deaths, 24 civilian injuries, and $16.4 million in direct property damage per year.
Although these fires are not common, they are likely to be unusually serious when they do occur. On average, one of every 21 reported home structure Christmas tree fires resulted in a death, compared to an average of one death per 137 total reported home structure fires.
Half of the home Christmas tree structure fires occurred in December and one-third occurred in January. Forty-one percent of them occurred on the 12 days from December 24 through January 4.
Electrical failures or malfunctions were involved in 33 percent of the home Christmas tree structure fires; one in five, or 19 percent, occurred because some type of heat source was too close to the tree. Decorative lights with line voltage were involved in 13 percent of these incidents, and 11 percent were started by candles.
Nineteen percent of home Christmas tree structure fires were intentionally set. More than half of these occurred in January and may have been related to disposal.
The risk of fire is higher with natural trees than artificial ones. Researchers found that dry natural trees burned easily, but trees that had been kept moist are unlikely to catch fire unintentionally.
Holiday lights and other decorative lighting with line voltage were involved in an estimated average of 150 home structure fires per year in this same period. These fires caused an average of eight civilian deaths, 16 civilian injuries, and $8.9 million in direct property damage per year. Forty-three percent occurred in December and 12 percent occurred in January. Eighteen percent of these fires began with Christmas trees. Electrical failures or malfunctions were factors in almost two-thirds of the fires involving holiday or decorative lights.
