  4. #Foreign and #Domestic #Emergencies Dept : The weaponization of conflict via political extremism is a tool used by special interests everywhere to destabilize geopolitics generally. The resulting chaos can result in a threat level that backfires on scales that endanger literally everyone. Competent leadership is required. We can look at #MarkCarney and #KeirStarmer facing situations that have never been seen before and succeeding via stable decision making when others are losing their minds

  7. #Foreign and #Domestic #Emergencies Dept : Almost everything in reportage now on the #US - #Iran conflict has turned into complete nonsense.
    But the conflict has also become a profit center and the spreads are no longer just touts from insiders.Profit taking is fearless and thinly veiled. There is no domestic authority left to enforce much less bring charges of money laundering and racketeering. We have crypto now purpose built for all the scamming.What will peak absurdity look like ?
    Tough call

    Mercury News: ‘It’s like a big camping trip’: Mountain View residents near a week without safe drinking water

    About 67 houses remain without clean water, six days after a water main was contaminated with slurry mix during construction

  17. 1/2 Foreign and #Domestic #Emergencies Dept : Currently any definition for “operational success” in #Iran seems to have involved words like “decapitation” ,”epic”, and “obliteration”. None of those seem to apply to what has actually taken place,though the word obliteration might soon be applicable in the case of American consumers and taxpayers.
    Operational successes in terms of damaging oil and gas facilities are in direct contradiction to the stated goal of opening the #SOH. #MainstreamMedia -

  18. "In the early hours of Monday morning, four #ambulances belonging to #Hatzalah – the volunteer #Jewish #emergencyservice that provides medical care to #Jews and non-Jews alike, whose name literally translates to ‘rescue’ or ‘relief’ – were set on fire outside a #synagogue in #GoldersGreen.

    Nobody was killed, though.

    That is a fact that will be noted often, as a form of reassurance for the Jewish community of #London, to which I belong. But that argument must not be allowed to carry too much weight.

    The issue is that ambulances are functional objects: they exist to close the gap between #medical crisis and subsequent medical care. To target them is an act of interference – a deliberate degradation of the Jews’ capacity to respond to #emergencies."

  19. 1/n Foreign and #Domestic #Emergencies Dept: Does the #West still exist ?
    Oy.
    It's interesting that a West: West divide defines this discussion panel's centroid.
    Most relevant crises emissions of western origin talked about are coming from a singular malfeasant juvenile source.
    Do you really want to legitimize that behavior as the primary challenge of western civilization or Europe generally when it is neither representative or normal ?

  20. 1/2 #Foreign and #Domestic #Emergencies Dept: #Canada and the #EU ,both indirectly and directly, knowingly and unknowingly, are helping to protect freedom and the lives of #American #Citizens here at home.While the current administration deliberately tries to obfuscate and blur the lines between what is lawful and unlawful, light and darkness, #Europe acts.They have been here before.Certainly they have #Extremists of their own trying to blur #Norms in the same way. It’s not working there either-

  21. 1/2 #Foreign and #Domestic #Emergencies Dept : #DAVOS wasn’t really DAVOS this year. To understand what really took place you’d have to be following #Ukraine and domestic dynamics, trade war, tariffs and such.
    As it happened #Greenland basically magnified and focused all of those dynamics. #Canada and the #EU (also in the context of #NATO) gelled , both de escalating and brandishing what is essentially a very
    #BFH in terms of bargaining power. It was like a front row seat to a great awakening-

  24. Lifehacker: Google Pixels Are Still Having Problems Calling 911. “For the past few years, Google’s Pixel phones have had recurring problems with calling 911, and the issue has once again reared its ugly head.

  26. I've been collecting stories about how #CPBFundingCuts will affect specific stations. I'll be posting those shortly, but this seemed to be a good place to start...

    #CorporationForPublicBroadcasting, funder of #NPR and #PBS, says it will end operations within months after federal budget cuts

    By Kerry Breen
    Updated on: August 1, 2025

    Excerpt: "Maher warned that #defunding #PublicRadio poses 'a real risk to the #PublicSafety of the country.' She said some NPR stations receive 'more than 50% of their budget' from federal funding and may face layoffs and station closures.

    "#Rural areas would feel the largest impacts, Maher said. Local stations also provide vital alerts in #emergencies like #storms, #floods and #wildfires."

  28. On our #archaeological field projects, we unfortunately occasionally come across #munitions from #WW2 In order to be prepared in the event of an emergency, some of our employees recently took part in a training course together with the #EOD Munitions Recovery. They also practised #firstaid in #emergencies caused by the detonation of old #ammunition.

  30. What to put in your "go bag" for a fire or other emergency evacuation

    Story by Matthew Rodriguez, January 7, 2025

    What is a go bag?

    "An emergency supply kit or go bag is typically a backpack filled with the essentials and personal documents. Cal Fire recommends everyone have their kit ready before a wildfire or disaster to ensure a quick evacuation and contain everything someone would need for an extended stay away from their home.

    Go bags should contain the following:

    - A 3-day supply of non-perishable food & 3 gallons of water per person
    - A map with at least 2 evacuation routes
    - Necessary prescriptions or medications
    - A change of clothes & extra eyeglasses/contact lenses
    - Extra car keys, credit cards, cash, or traveler's checks
    - A first aid kit & sanitation supplies
    - A flashlight & battery-powered radio with extra batteries

    Also, ensure the pack contains any copies of important documents, including birth certificates, passports, IDs, etc."
