Being the best you can be
Education and training is how we turn you from raw recruit into an accomplished and confident member of the Navy team. It's how we prepare you for the type of situations you might face, as well as giving you the skills to deal with them. It's where new colleagues become best mates. It's an integral and enjoyable part of Navy life. We never stop learning.
Types of education and training
On the job
As a new recruit you will stay at the Navy home base, HMNZS Philomel, in Devonport, Auckland. Depending on whether you are joining as an Officer or a Sailor you will complete a different Basic Training course – during this time you will get to know the base and its facilities, spend time with other new recruits and get used to Navy life.
Basic Common Training is the first course any new sailor undertakes when joining the Navy. This is a 18 week course aiming to take you from civilian to competent and self disciplined Naval Sailor. It is also aimed at confirming the suitability of trainees for the Navy, preparing them for specialist training and life onboard our Ships.
The first phase of training focuses on inducting the trainee into the Navy.
It is held at the Recruit Training Squadron and aims to place trainees under limited controlled stress to:
- Develop teamwork/team support in a controlled environment
- Encourage mutual harmony and community well being
- Adapt to Naval discipline and regulations
- Participate in physical fitness/sport
- Understand and develop self-discipline
- Learn how to care for and clean naval uniform
The second phase of training gives the basic skills and knowledge to be in the Navy. Apart from academic and practical training there is an emphasis placed on teamwork. You will develop confidence, self-esteem and self-respect. Much of this phase will be spent doing various forms and levels of physical activity which are designed to encourage teamwork, instil personal discipline and foster comradeship.
Parade training is an important part of naval life; it will teach you to think and to work as a team and to complete instruction quickly and correctly. One day in an emergency your life or your comrade's life may depend on your quick response to a superior's command. You will learn to think and act without hesitation.
You will then move onto Basic Branch Training (BBT) where you will begin learning skills in your chosen trade.
Upon successful enlisting into the Navy you'll begin with the Junior Officer Induction Course in one of our Service Training Establishments. After completing this six week course you'll be posted to the Officer Training School (OTS) in Narrowneck, Devonport, to complete your remaining 16 weeks of Junior Officer Common Training (JOCT) course. You'll be exposed to various subjects and find out what it takes to be an officer in the Navy.
JOIC is a tri-service course that all New Zealand Defence Force Midshipman and Officer Cadets are required to complete at the beginning of their officer careers. The purpose of this six-week course is to introduce you to military life, and to make connections with other Officer Cadets from different services.
This course will introduce you to the standards and discipline demanded by all members of the NZDF as well as the ethos and values required to be an officer in the NZDF. During this course you will learn a variety of military skills including field craft, weapon handling, navigation, parade drill, battle craft, military law, communications, and an introduction to leadership. During JOIC, you'll become well acquainted with peer to peer feedback, which is presented after various tasks in order to help you to improve your leadership.
Junior Officer Common Training is designed to primarily develop and test an individual's leadership, as well as induct trainees into naval life. It's important to note that you'll learn what it takes to be a successful leader in the Navy and be taught skills to improve your leadership – you don't have to be an expert just yet!
Throughout training you'll learn about the following, and more:
- Navy ethos and values
- Ceremonial customs
- Drill and parade
- Weapons training
- Basic mariner training
- Damage control
- Maritime strategy
- Communication skills
- Defence writing and publications
- Leadership.
The parts that make up JOCT can be categorised into one of three groups; Navy Induction; Sea Qualification and Academic Development, and Leadership.
At the beginning of your training there's a strong focus on learning the basics of becoming an officer in the Navy. These include general service knowledge, discipline, parade, uniform preparation, and developing a high level of physical and mental fitness. You'll be introduced to what it's like to be in the Navy, and how it differs from the other two services. These first few weeks are important for developing teamwork with each other and instilling positive habits.
Trainees will get the opportunity to gain sea qualification, which includes completing Basic Mariner Training (BMT), and Damage Control School. Basic Mariner Training is completed at the Bill Morley Seamanship Training Aids Facility within Devonport Naval base. Trainees will be introduced to the basic functions and procedures on board Royal New Zealand Navy ships. Damage Control School is at the Sea Safety Training Squadron beside the Ngataringa Sports Complex. This module will teach trainees how to identify and extinguish fires on board ship, as well as dealing with flooding and toxic gas threats.
As an officer, being diplomatic and aware of what is going on in the wider world is a key skill needed. Trainees will be educated in Maritime strategy, and the importance of the RNZN's role and capabilities. Trainees will practice Defence communication methods, such as service writing and oral communication. These skills are put to use in their Maritime Strategy essay and history presentation.
Trainees are educated and assessed on their leadership skills throughout JOCT. There are many opportunities to showcase your leadership; from being the class IC (In Command), to partaking in a four-day tramp through the Kaimai Ranges, to leading during the scenario-based assessment weeks at the Tamaki Leadership Centre. The weeks spent at Tamaki Leadership Centre in Whangaparoa are designed for trainees to not only develop their leadership, but also improve teamwork and resilience as you work to compete a range of tasks.
When you train as a Sailor or Officer, you'll learn to tackle the unexpected. This is a skill that you will take with you far beyond your career in the Navy.
Your training will begin with a Common Training Course where you will be introduced to the basics of Naval training, taking you from a civilian to a competent and self-disciplined member of our crew.
If you're training as a Sailor, you'll then move into learning your chosen trade – some of which will see you gain industry-recognised qualifications.
As an officer, you'll also begin your specialist training – however, some of these roles may require you to first complete a level of tertiary education before you begin. There are several scholarship options available which could assist you in achieving this.
The ongoing development of Navy personnel is also very important to us – we are always looking at ways to help you improve in skills that will be beneficial to both you and the Navy. The majority of these will be focused on the Navy but there are also opportunities to apply for grants for other educational courses through the Voluntary Study Assistance Scheme.
The Navy offers three types of tertiary study scheme for those who are either already studying to complete a degree or who wish to study towards completion of a degree which the Navy deems relevant to the their chosen naval career path.
Prior to commencing any one of the three schemes, selected participants will be required to apply and complete academic testing, fitness testing and conduct a number of interview sessions to determine if they are suitable to become a Naval Officer.
Each of the three schemes has a specific employment focus and offers varying degrees of financial support as follows:
Officers join the Navy as a Midshipman and complete the normal training requirements along with their peers. Confirmation that they are to commence sponsored tertiary study is advised on completion of this initial training which is conducted over the first five months of naval service.
In the normal course of events an officer will commence their tertiary study at the beginning of the following year, that is year 2 in the Navy. The normal time frame allocated for tertiary studies permits the completion of a Bachelor degree. In other words Midshipman Scheme members will attend University full time and be paid a salary to do so.
Generally a Return of Service (ROS) is required – one calendar year for each academic year the RNZN sponsors the recruit through university
This scheme is predicated on being accepted into the scheme and on completion of a degree joining the Navy. Entry into the Amokura Scheme remains conditional upon the gaining entrance into or continuing an appropriate degree course of study at University.
After an Amokura Scheme member successfully completes the requirements to gain a degree and has provided documented evidence of their academic results they enter the RNZN and commence their naval service.
An Amokura Scheme member receives no financial support from the RNZN while they are studying at university. After entry into the RNZN an Amokura Scheme member is however reimbursed the cost of the course fees they incurred in gaining their degree up to a prescribed maximum, subject to them providing documented evidence to the RNZN that they did indeed pay these fees.
While selected for regular force service in the Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) a Chatham Scheme member initially serves in the Royal New Zealand Naval Volunteer Reserve (RNZNVR), which is a non-regular force component of the New Zealand Naval Forces, while he or she is completing university studies. They subsequently transfer to the RNZN and begin their full-time naval career once they have fulfilled the requirements to gain a university degree.
A Chatham Scheme member is entitled to a regime of financial assistance (fees, accommodation and living allowance, textbook costs) in support of their tertiary studies and a Return of Service is usually applied by one year for each academic year of sponsored study.
*A full disclosure of the terms and conditions of the schemes can be provided on application.
Give your passion purpose
Whatever your passion is in life, there's a role in the Navy that will help give it purpose.

U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez says Latino voters made the difference in President Barack Obama's popular vote victory
For U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, Latino voters made history this month as the decisive force behind President Barack Obama winning the popular vote over Republican candidate Mitt Romney.
About a week after the election, the Democratic senator claimed the race marked the first time when the popular vote was decided by Latino voters. Going forward, Republicans must face the growing electoral power of the Latino community, according to Menendez.
"For the first time in history, the share of the national popular vote margin is smaller than the Latino vote margin," Menendez said at a Nov. 14 event hosted by the liberal Center for American Progress Action Fund.
The senator is correct that Latino voters in 2012 made the difference in securing Obama's popular vote victory. But Menendez's claim about this scenario occurring "for the first time in history" needs clarification.
Latino voters also delivered more than enough votes to make Vice President Al Gore the popular vote winner in 2000. But unlike Gore, Obama won both the popular vote and received enough electoral votes to win the election.
That means this year's election marks the first time when Latino voters played a decisive role in electing the president, according to the founders of Latino Decisions, a Seattle, Wash.-based polling research firm.
The firm's research has been widely cited by numerous media organizations, including the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal.
The senator's claim is based on a recent study by Latino Decisions, in which it analyzed the results of a nationwide poll of Latinos conducted in the days leading up to the election.
Based on that poll, Latino Decisions estimated that Latinos gave Obama a net gain of 5.4 percent of all popular votes. Since Obama won the overall popular vote by about 2.8 percent, Latino voters put Obama over the finish line, according to Gary Segura, a political science professor and co-founder of Latino Decisions.
Applying the same methodology to exit polling data used by the Associated Press and major U.S. newspapers and television networks, PolitiFact New Jersey reached a similar conclusion.
But a similar scenario occurred in 2000, when Gore won the popular vote by a smaller margin than the net gain he received from Latino voters, according to exit polling data compiled by The New York Times.
Yet since Gore didn't get enough electoral votes to win the presidency, 2012 marks the first year when Latino voters played a decisive role in a presidential election, according to Segura and Matt Barreto, also a political science professor and co-founder of Latino Decisions.
Barreto told us in an e-mail that Menendez's comments "are based entirely on our research, and the spirit of the comments were that Latinos 'made a difference' in the national election results for the first time ever -- that is accurate since Gore lost the EC (electoral college) vote."
Kerri Talbot, Menendez's chief counsel, echoed Barreto's argument, saying the point of Menendez's speech was that 2012 "was the first time Latinos made a difference in the national election."
"I understand your point about the 2000 election popular vote but the Latino vote was not decisive in that election given that Gore lost in the electoral college," Talbot said in an e-mail.
Our ruling
About a week after Obama won re-election, Menendez claimed: "For the first time in history, the share of the national popular vote margin is smaller than the Latino vote margin."
The senator's correct that Latino voters put Obama over the top in winning the popular vote, according to both a Latino Decisions poll and exit polling data. But Menendez should have been clearer about the historic nature of the Latino vote in 2012.
The 2000 election was the first time when Latino voters delivered more than enough votes for a popular vote victory, but this year's election marks the first time when Latinos were decisive in electing the overall winner, according to the founders of Latino Decisions.
We rate the statement Mostly True.

Marvel is known for their somewhat unorthodox casting choices over the years. Before Iron Man became a massive blockbuster, Robert Downey Jr. was considered a controversial choice to lead a big-budget franchise. Of course, it all turned out just fine, with the 2008 movie launching Robert Downey Jr.'s career into the stratosphere. Now, according to an unconfirmed report, the actor wants to bring in his old friends Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster to co-star in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
Here's what an unidentified source has to say about Robert Downey Jr.'s efforts to bring Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster on board for the highly-anticipated sequel.
"Robert is raising eyebrows with his efforts on behalf of his longtime best pals Jodie Foster and Mel Gibson. He wants to bring Mel and Jodie into the Marvel universe, preferably in one of the Avengers films. It's been a longtime dream of Robert's to help Mel and Jodie reach similar big box office heights like the ones he's achieved in recent years."
While casting Jodie Foster would reportedly be "no problem" for Marvel, Mel Gibson is a different story, due to his much-publicized anti-Semitic rant in 2006.
"Marvel is run by one of the richest and most prominent Israeli businessmen in Hollywood, and you can be sure even if Robert got down on his knees and begged, there's no place for Mel in the Marvel films."
Robert Downey Jr. reportedly pitched the idea of Mel Gibson playing the U.S. President in Iron Man 3, but that idea was shot down, with the role eventually going to William Sadler. However, the unnamed source reveals that Robert Downey Jr. will keep pushing to get his friends hired.
"Robert is very big into working with his friends. Ashley Hamilton and Iron Man 3 director Shane Black both credit him with making the final push to get them hired."
Robert Downey Jr. has a lucrative five-year deal with Marvel Studios, which includes returning as Tony Stark in Avengers: Age of Ultron and The Avengers 3, along with consulting on future Iron Man movies. Would you like to see Mel Gibson or Jodie Foster in Avengers: Age of Ultron? Let us know!

Image Duplicator
About –
Planning Unit created a poster for the exhibition Image Duplicator which which explorers the relationship between Roy Litchenstein's work, and the original comic book art that it came from.
The poster is available to buy from print-process.com >
Money raised from selling prints and originals will be donated to the Hero Initiative, which helps down-on-their-luck comic book veterans.
"Pop artist Roy Lichtensein currently has a show on at the Tate. While the public is intimately familiar with his work, what they may be unaware of is how closely many of his images were "appropriated" from comic artists like Irv Novick, Russ Heath, Jack Kirby, John Romita and Joe Kubert, who received no fee or credit. Is this an act of brilliant recontexturalisation? The elevation of commercial "low" art to "high" art? Art world snobbery? Artistic licence? Cultural annexation? Gallery shortsightedness? Or something else? This show is a chance for real comic-book artists (and other "commercial artists" – illustrators, designers etc) to ask these kinds of questions and share their views, via their work."
"Every interested comic artist (or illustrator, graphic designer or other "commercial artist") should "re-reappropriate" one of the comic images Lichtenstein used, and rework it, using some of their 'commercial art' drawing skills, to warp and twist it into something interesting and original, and in the process to comment on this type of appropriation.
The IMPORTANT thing to stress is that you'd be going back to the source material and re-reappropriating Coletta, Novick, Kirby et al – NOT copying Lichtenstein, as we don't want copyright issues from the Lichtenstein estate.
Take Back the Art!"
"Planning Unit used Tony Abruzzo's comic book image that Roy Litchenstein's "Oh Jeff…" came from.
The Ben-Day dot is the hallmark of Litchenstein's work. What we have done is take the original piece of work by Tony Abruzzo, and recreated it using a Ben-Day dot, but instead of using a dot we have used a Copyright symbol © – the idea being that we have use Litchenstein's method to recreate the original piece, the twist being that using a Copyright symbol illustrates the on going debate regarding Litchenstein's work.
What comes to light is, after putting it through this graphic process you are hard pushed to see whether the work was created from the original comic book image, or the Litchenstein version, which further illustrates just how closely Litchenstein reproduced the original source material for his art. But on close comparison you can see that is has been reproduced from Tony Abruzzo's original piece."
A show at the Orbital Gallery, Leicester Square, London. May 16th-31st 2013

Solved Disk Dashboard
I was wondering how I would be able to create a dashboard that would show the logical disks for all windows operating systems that show the disks thresholds that are under the thresholds set for the disks?
This would be to assist capacity management with a dashboard they could easily view and see which servers are below the configure overrides.
I have critical for non system disks set to warning under 20GB but not alert and Critical under 10GB and generates and alert
Best answer
One way is to use the Status Block tile
- Set scope to be advanced. Put in a group (if needed). Set the class to the class you need (eg, "Windows Server 2008 Logical Disk"
- Set the Label to custom and put in {{path}}
- You can put the sublabel as to something similar like {{displayName}} {{properties.sizeinMBs}}MB
All going to plan, the tiles should turn Red when they are below your configured threshold.
Thanks everyone – this was useful
If you want to put carriage return line feed to put a property on the next line just put a <br/> in between the properties 😉
I have done something similar. It only shows unhealthy disks (warning, critical). It scoped on different OS disk classes and different logical units.In version 2 you could tie a healt state monitor to performance views making the bars go red/yellow. You had to go into the XML files to edit the views. Don't know if its still available in v3 though.

We installed SQL Server 2008 R2 about 2 months ago, and I recently tried to use a new feature in Reporting Services 2008 R2. I used the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) to open a new Report Server Project. After creating a data source I also defined a shared dataset (a new feature to SSRS 2008 R2). I put some of the fields into a table and tried to run the report (still inside the BIDS). But I failed with an error:
The report preview failed because the report could not be built. Read the errors, warnings and messages in the Error List window for specific build features.
The data set, DataSet1, is a shared dataset. SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services does not support shared data sets.
I couldn't get it. I'm using BIDS from SQL Server 2008 R2 – what do you mean it's not supported? :S
Help was on the way quite quickly from Microsoft support Israel. Apparently, though I am using the BIDS from SQL Server 2008 R2, I still need to define my Target Server Version to SQL Server 2008 R2. The default setting is (for some reason) set to SQL Server 2008 (hence the error message).
Guess that just goes to show me, it's all about the little things (as always ;)).

Consider that since it began trading in early 2001, the iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology Index (Nasdaq: IBB) is up 130%. That's more than triple the S&P 500's 13-year return of 43%.
And for biotech as a group, things just keep getting better, with a number of leaders crushing the market over the last two years.
One example is Gilead Sciences Inc. (Nasdaq: GILD), which has returned roughly 185% in two years. Gilead has treatments for HIV, cardiovascular diseases, hepatitis C, and more.
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: REGN) has a two-year return of 187%. The company is best known for EYELEA, a compound that combats age-related macular degeneration of the eyes that can lead to blindness.
But as impressive as these stocks have been, there are three great opportunities in the sector with just as much, if not more, potential that just got cheap.
They're all 2014 IPOs… and the market hasn't quite figured out just how profitable they'll be.
For the time being, these shares are in the discount bin. They won't stay there for long…
Profit Machine No. 1
Auspex Pharmaceuticals
Auspex Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: ASPX) went public on Feb. 5 with an offering price of $12. It was recently trading at $23 for gains to date of 92%.
Auspex specializes in developing drugs to treat orphan diseases, defined as those that affect fewer than 200,000 patients. Because there are more than 6,000 such diseases in the United States, the federal government gives firms what amounts to a 7-year monopoly on orphan drugs.
Based in suburban San Diego, Auspex is focused on conditions that cause hyperkinetic movement disorders such as Huntington's disease and Tourette's syndrome.
It's most promising candidate is SD-809, a drug proposed to treat involuntary abdominal spasms related to Huntington's, a hereditary neurodegenerative disease that results in motor, cognitive, and psychiatric disability, primarily due to the destruction of neurons in the brain.
SD-809 is in advanced clinical trials and has already shown a tremendous amount of potential. Other drugs in Auspex's pipeline include those used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and conditions like pulmonary fibrosis (scarring of the lungs) and obstruction of the coronary arteries.
Profit Machine No. 2
Revance Therapeutics
On Feb. 6, Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVNC) went public with an offering price $16. Recently trading at about $36, the stock is already up 125%.
Revance isa specialty firm focused primarily on products for dermatological applications that provide an alternative to Botox injections.
As such, the company's lead product does rely on the botulinum toxin but is applied topically to reduce or eliminate facial lines like "crow's feet" and "laugh lines."
Currently in advanced clinical trials, the product is significant for patients who prefer to avoid injections. However, Revance does have a similar leading candidate, RT002, that is essentially an injectable form of compound.

As a kid, Lisa Q. Mathews devoured every Nancy Drew book in her summer camp library, determined to outsmart the perfect girl detective. She failed, of course, but years later she got another chance. After graduating from Williams College with a double major in English and Psychology and a typing speed of 12 wpm, Lisa headed to New York to work as an assistant to four busy editors. A few jobs later, she became an editor herself—of brand new Nancy Drew books!
Lisa also wrote for other kids' book series, including Mary-Kate and Ashley and The Lizzie McGuire Mysteries. She later became Creative Director and Executive Editor at Random House Children's Books.
But in addition to her current work as a freelance editor, Lisa had always dreamed of writing mysteries full-time—for grownups. Following an extended stay at her parents' floral-themed retirement community in Southwest Florida—and a chance elevator meeting with a memorable senior—The Ladies Smythe & Westin series was born.
Lisa is represented by Stephany Evans at Ayesha Pande Literary. A mom to three grown children, she now lives in New Hampshire with her husband, a lucky black cat, and a crazy Golden Retriever. Lisa is happy to report that she and Nancy Drew are now Facebook friends, and her typing speed is much improved. To learn more about Lisa and her books, please drop by her website at lisaqmathews.com. You can also find her at Kill Your Darlings Editing Services.

It's quite an honor," Lidstrom said. "It'll be fun to do it." What are his responsibilities? "Smile and wave," Lidstrom said. "That's pretty much it." Lidstrom said he was asked Thursday to be the grand marshal of the parade. He said he has watched it on television in the past, although his family doesn't celebrate the holiday.

Sources from the board said that at a meeting with officials on Wednesday , board members said that the exercise would be a part of the state's comprehensive land survey The documents of over 39,000 Waqf institutions in the state would provide the basis for the board to stake its claim to land parcels which are being claimed by 'third parties'.
Board members Mallik Moatasim Khan and Syed Akbar Nizamuddin Hussaini are working with staff members on the subject.
The sources said that the Telangana comprehensive land survey proforma has a column for Waqf properties which has to be filled. The board intends to use this provision to state its stand.
Physical copies and soft copies of gazettes will be given to district collectors and other revenue officials of all 31 districts of the state.
"There are several instances in which land parcels have been claimed by private parties. It appears that pattas have been allotted in cases to individuals. By furnishing Waqf gazettes, which states the extent of land and boundaries, the board will have made its case,'' an official who did not wish to be identified said.
The source opined that once the government accepts the board's position, it would be easier for it to declare those in occupation as encroacher. "However, more efforts may be required to declare those in possession of Waqf lands as encroachers," he added.
Speaking to TOI, board member Syed Akbar Nizamuddin Hussaini said that the exercise will provide the necessary grounds to iron out inconsistencies between revenue and Waqf records. "It will be beneficial for the cause of Waqf protection if the position of the board is explained to the government. We will have reasons to say that we have mentioned that the nature of a certain property which has private claimants is Waqf,'' he said.

Closing Open Medicine: why we need to work at Sustaining the Knowledge Commons
A sad moment for open access: the closing of Open Medicine. Kendall, Maskalyk & Papelu's final editorial provides a good explanation of the resources that we need to support scholar-led open access publishing: active participation in the form of academic editing, and financial support for the work involved in running a journal. This illustrates why we need to work towards sustaining the knowledge commons.

Many collegiate coaches throughout the United States are experts when it comes to sports, but when the conversation changes to recruiting, some coaches fall short in their abilities to "sell" their program and their school.
Carrie West, a doctoral candidate in Communications Media and Instructional Technology at IUP and pharmaceutical sales executive, has developed a program that introduces collegiate coaches to sales techniques that have been perfected by large sales organizations.
This program was piloted at Wheeling Jesuit University earlier this month.
"Coaches and admission counselors are often relied upon to deliver new students to campus," West said. "However, many times, these individuals who are taxed with assisting with the 'bottom line' of the university have little or no sales training."
West takes a model developed by the pharmaceutical industry and has adapted it for coaches and admission counselors.
"There really is an unmet need," West said. "This program allows those most responsible for recruiting students an opportunity to gain and refine skills that will significantly enhance their ability to ask and answer questions, effectively manage objections as well as to develop a fluid continuum through the recruitment process."
Wheeling Jesuit Athletic Director Dan Sancomb said he was pleased with the half-day seminar.
"Our coaches took something away from that program that will immediately impact their recruiting efforts," Sancomb said.
West and her partners offer half-day, full-day, and multi-day training retreats.

This development came about after the Supreme Court rejected an appeal by the company, effectively ending its efforts to cancel heavy fines the government was seeking to collect. The government had been suing US Steel over pledges it says were broken during after the acquisition of Hamilton-based Stelco Inc. in 2007.

I talked to two students yesterday displaced by the fire that consumed a two-family unit on 15th Street, and they shared their suspicion that the fire may have had something to do with a noisy party that was occurring on the first floor.
It looks like their suspicions were confirmed and then some.
According to authorities, the fire started when a birthday party got out of hand. The partiers apparently lit sparklers indoors and were consuming flaming shots – literally – of Bacardi 151.
They then waited upwards of ten to fifteen minutes to call the fire department, thinking they could contain the fire themselves.
One student who was passed out on the first floor had to be rescued by other inhabitants. Unsure if there were more people inside, Troy Police Officers Brandon Cipperly and William O'Neill rushed into the home but were beaten back by flames and black smoke. Cipperly (who just two weeks ago was accused by a passerby arrested for an open container of brutalizing an RPI student) was treated and released at Samaritan hospital for smoke inhalation.
RPI is housing the students displaced by the fire in Blitman Commons downtown.
