As I had an office day today and the weather is sunny I decided to walk to work this morning, for the first time in ages.
Along the path someone had set a fire to burn their rubbish (madness in this dry weather) which was still smouldering.
Still the local rats were very appreciative of have a cooked breakfast for a change!

Residential fire safety requires physical validation, not just passive hardware deployment. Standard piezo-electric smoke alarms operating at 3 kHz often fail to trigger arousal in sleeping children due to deep-wave sleep cycles.
Optimizing your domestic safety infrastructure requires a proactive framework. Review the complete operational protocol here: https://securelylife.com/fire-escape-drills-for-kids/

Radius scrap metal yard ordered to submit a fire prevention plan — appeals it
"Two months after two massive and preventable scrap metal fires at #RadiusRecycling in 2024 sent plumes of #ToxicFumes and metal particulates over North Portland and Linnton, the North Peninsula Review discovered that the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality sent an enforcement letter to the company alleging that Radius was operating an unpermitted solid waste disposal site and assessing a $29,580 civil penalty. The notice included an order to submit a fire prevention plan by September 30, 2024. "

And in #PortlandOR ... Large pile fire at #RadiusRecycling sends smoke over North Portland; second fire at site this year
The plume of smoke could be seen from downtown Portland. Portland Fire & Rescue said the fire was in a scrap pile at a recycling facility.
By Anthony Macuk (KGW), Amy-Xiaoshi DePaola
July 17, 2024PORTLAND, Ore. — "A fire at a Radius Recycling metal recycling facility in the St. Johns neighborhood broke out Wednesday afternoon, sending up a plume of black smoke visible from as far away as downtown Portland. There were no injuries reported to first responders or plant personnel, according to Portland Fire & Rescue, and it took about five hours to get the blaze under control.
"The Radius Recycling facility is located in an industrial area along the Willamette River between the Port of Portland's Terminal 4 and Terminal 5. A PF&R news release describes the company as being "affiliated with" #SchnitzerSteel; the company's website says Schnitzer Steel rebranded to Radius Recycling last year.
"Wednesday's incident was the second major fire at the scrapyard this year; a previous debris fire broke out on the evening of May 9, producing a large amount of smoke, although in that case fire crews were able to put it out in about an hour.
"Portland Fire & Rescue (PF&R) first tweeted about Wednesday's fire at around 1:30 p.m., describing it as a large fire in a scrap pile at the recycling facility, and said aerial ladder pipes were being set up to start putting it out. PF&R later added that the fire was in at least two piles and a nearby structure was in danger of being caught up in the blaze."

Viral Fire-Safety Clip Mislabels Wengding as Shirakawa-go
Not Shirakawa-go — this viral fire cannon clip matches Wengding Village, where devastating fires led to real, modern protection systems.Dear Cherubs, the internet has once again looked at one dramatic clip and confidently picked the wrong village. A video of autonomous water cannons was widely shared as Shirakawa-go in Japan, but the setting lines up much better with Wengding in Yunnan, China — because apparently two heritage villages with fire-fighting systems are now expected to file paperwork proving they are not each other. As noted by thisclaimer.com, this is the sort of mix-up social media produces when it is in a hurry and allergic to map-reading.
THE REAL LOCATION
Wengding is a Wa ethnic village in southwest China’s Yunnan province, and it has a real fire story behind those sprinklers. Xinhua reported that a fire in February 2021 reduced about 100 traditional Wa thatched cottages to ashes, while South China Morning Post reported that 107 homes were destroyed and only four traditional houses remained. The village was later rebuilt at the original site and reopened to visitors.
That context matters. The clip is not just a neat gadget demo; it is a fire-protection response shaped by a devastating loss. Recent research on Wengding describes the village’s traditional homes as bamboo-wood, thatched, and built on stilt-like structures, which is exactly the kind of architecture that does not enjoy surprise visits from flames.
WHY SHIRAKAWA-GO GOT PULLED IN
Shirakawa-go, to be fair, really does have a serious fire-prevention setup. UNESCO says the Historic Villages of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama use water cannons, alarms, extinguishers, cisterns and pump facilities, and that residents operate the cannons when needed. UNESCO also notes that the gassho-zukuri houses are wooden structures with thatched roofs, so fire prevention is not some decorative side quest.
Mainichi reported that 59 cannons were tested during a fire drill at the World Heritage settlement, which is likely where the “59 units” detail came from. So yes, Shirakawa-go does use a carefully designed system. It just is not the village in this particular viral clip.
The visual clue is the giveaway. Wengding’s misty Yunnan setting, Wa heritage, and thatched stilt houses fit the footage far better than a Japanese alpine village famous for its gassho-style farmhouses. One clip, two very different places, and one caption that really needed a fact-check before it went full world tour. The lesson is simple: if a post says “Japan” but looks like Yunnan, do not let the algorithm play tour guide.
