  • Is someone taking the piss out of Munich on wikipedia?

    Posted by admin on April 29th, 2011 and filed under wikipedia disaster | 6 Comments »

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_air_disaster

    "It ploughed through a fence past the end of the runway, before the port wing hit a nearby house, transporting the house to the land of Oz and was torn off."

    The land of Oz? What numpty has done that? Why hasn’t wikipedia sorted it?
    Wait it is gone now, they have sorted it. Fvcking stupid.
    I did notice it Keiran mate, must be the Scottish intuiton, just like Busby ;) Wasn’t sure whether he actually meant to make a snide remark but I didn’t rule it out

    I’m surprised no-one caught onto Aces’ sick little joke in the title of his question.

    ”Going strong in all four competitions at one stage earlier this season and then CR-ASH ! - lol”

    Of course he’ll deny it but he’s well aware that it’s on at the moment, since two decent questions have already been posted about it.

    I would definitely put it down as a snide remark. Sneaky little cvnt.

    Where Can I Find An Emergency Preparedness Calculator?

    Posted by admin on April 25th, 2011 and filed under preparedness | 1 Comment »

    The Latter Day Saint religion request that you have an emergency preparedness storage in which you have supplies such as food, flash light and so forth, but the problem I am having is trying to find the right things. For example I am trying to save up on shampoo’s, conditioner’s, body soaps, etc… and I don’t exactly know how much of each I would need in year, could any one help me out with this problem, and tell me where I can find a calculator to calculate it?

    They don’t have a calculator for personal use items, just for the very basic food storage items. Here’s that link:
    http://lds.about.com/library/bl/faq/blcalculator.htm

    It’s fairly easy to figure out personal use items. Get a Sharpe marker, and write the date you opened an item (like shampoo) right on the bottle. Then when it’s empty, note how long it took your family to use up that item (week, month, two months, ect). From there, it’s easy for you to calculate exactly how many bottles you would need to stock up on, for your goal period of time. Some people stock three months worth, some 6 months, some a year, ect.

    Also be sure you make allowances for times you are sick. Example your family might use a roll of TP every single day in a heavy use bathroom. But if everyone is sick, you might go through several rolls in a day. So always add in extra, just to be on the safe side.

    What are some common causes of stream floods?

    Posted by admin on April 23rd, 2011 and filed under floods | 1 Comment »

    I need at least 5 common causes of stream floods, does anyone have any idea?

    1) flash floods occur when a storm upstream causes an influx of water down stream
    2) a jam. be it from ice, man made, a beaver dam, or debris. Or the busting of that jam
    3) tsunami or tidal floe. Some rivers can actually ‘back flow’ Meaning the incoming tide can travel up the stream or river making it over flow the banks
    4) an area of land sinking or rising, shifting the stream
    5) seasonal snow melts that add extra water to the stream or river

    What US cities have frequent predictable flash floods?

    Posted by admin on April 21st, 2011 and filed under floods | 2 Comments »

    As weird as this seems, I’m wanting to shoot a home video of a flash flood forming and the effects of it. I’m especially looking for intersections/neighborhoods that flood frequently. I expect to be patient with this project and are willing to travel. I’d like to film cars stalling out/floating away, trash floating on the water, .etc. I’ve personally never experienced a flood, but will have a backpack of essential things with me.

    Does anyone know of a particular street/intersection/neighborhood that FLOODS frequently?

    Any help is appreciated!

    If you follow the weather much then you know that a flash flood is hardly predictable. The most likely places would be cities in the deserts of the Southwest.

    How are people dealing with Australia floods?

    Posted by admin on April 19th, 2011 and filed under floods | 4 Comments »

    I have got to do an essay for geography on the Australia floods but how are they dealing with it?

    I live in victoria so my town isnt flooded but i have been watching the news. The news headlines are breaking constatly reporting to us what is happening. at the moment 10 people have died 5 of them are children.
    Many people are staying on the tops of their house roofs. The water in some parts of Brisbane is up to the tips of roofs and some houses are covered. I have seen cars floating down the streets. People have been evacuating into shelters and highland but many of the shelters have said that NO ANIMALS are welcome.
    The floods have also spred to NSW and there have been warnings for Flash floodings in Victoria on Wednesday.

    The brisbane river has spilled over, 59 people have been reported missing and houses have been ripped off their stumps. 100mls of rain are pouring down every hour. People are putting sandbanks at the bases of their properties. 9000 homes will most likely be destroyed by thursday and QLD & NSW will have their power cut tomorow morning. 1500 Queenslanders have been evacuated in the past 24hrs. the death toll is rising.

    Here is some picture of the flooding.

    Sorry just then they reported 78 people missing and another 18 mmost likely dead. Australians are dealing with it by sticking together and helping each other out. There is no more we can do.

    i hope i helped you. if you have any more questions email me. PS im 14.

    When the world floods again how will Christians react?

    Posted by admin on April 17th, 2011 and filed under floods | 16 Comments »

    Ok, so it’s been proven that the world naturally floods every so often. Let’s say that it decides to flood in 20 years. Wouldn’t that prove the part of the bible where their god promised NOT to flood the earth wrong? You think that would shake their faith a little?

    Irrational Christians have an excuse for absolutely everything. They’ll pull something out of their butts, string together a few opposite bible verses, and say they have the answer, when really they completely BSed something… again.

    What is the name of Ecuador’s Emergency Management/Response Agency?

    Would Emergency Management be good for a Criminal Justice major or Homeland Security?

    Posted by admin on April 14th, 2011 and filed under emergency management | 1 Comment »

    I recently just opted out of my spanish minor because simply I just couldn’t do it. I plan on someday trying to be in the DEA or U.S. Marshalls or maybe even an Air Marshall. Would either of these majors help me out in becoming in either of those careers? Or if not, what would be a better major to get my foot in the door?

    Emergency management has little to do with law enforcement in general even though law enforcement personnel work in emergency situations. Emergency management is about planning and directing activities which are necessary after a natural disaster or terrorist attack.

    Criminal justice is a possibility for becoming a US marshall.

    Will there be volunteer groups heading to Queensland after the worst of the floods pass?

    Posted by admin on April 12th, 2011 and filed under floods | 4 Comments »

    I thought instead of making a monetary donation, I’d go the extra mile and visit some of the worst affected areas of QLD to help clean up the mess. I want to be able to do something, anything to help people out during this awful disaster. Does anyone know of any volunteer groups that might be heading to the state once the worst of the floods pass to offer a helping hand? I live in Newcastle, on the NSW border.

    You’ve actually got to have special qualifications to be able to help, plus there’s a couple of foreign countries who have sent aid. I think we may actually have plenty of physical helping hands when the time for clean up actually comes.

    Unless you are already a volunteer firefighter or member of the SES you will very likely get a polite ‘thanks but no thanks’ if you offer. I am married to a firefighter, and have friends in the SES.

    It might be worthwhile checking with the Salvation Army though, they often have things going where you can offer a helping hand and not need any of the paper qualifications that you do for the relief work that the SES and Fire Service does.
