LUCKY THREAD NUMBER:

HOMELAND INSECURITY

Backup electrical systems failed to kick in

A mysterious power failure at Logan Airport that delayed dozens of flights for more than five hours has still not been explained – six days later.

Airport officials insist airline security was not compromised during the blackout Monday at Logan International's Terminal E, but backup electrical systems failed to kick in as they are programmed under such circumstances.

We are the "Stotters" who make ourselves aware of the enemy who wishes to do us harm

Meet It!
Greet It!

Hi Matt!

[Judith Anne]

You're welcome, of course. This is such an important group of threads!

[HipShot]

Thanks for the validation. It would need to be something that they are immune to, or trained to work in, wouldn't it?

[HipShot]

I've seen "two 4's" mentioned here a few times. Can someone enlighten me as to the meaning and reference?

Pretty please?

This is a good thing, wish more colleges/night schools did this.

So I put it to a search:

{Most courses are for first responders}

Here's stuff for us ordinary Civilians:

USFA Training and Education Directory

The TEMA web site averages 300-400 hits per day during normal operations, can can peak at well over 11,000 on days when major emergencies are occurring somewhere in the state.
http://www.tnema.org/Training/DomestPrep.htm

All courses are taught by professional firefighters and paramedics, bringing years of experience "from the street" into the classroom.

I think the best thing to do is contact our individual community colleges etc or disaster planning in our own cities to see what is available to us.

Also the term terrorism preparedness courses makes for an interesting search for every aspect of knowledge in order to be prepared.

This site is very informative in my search travels:

Thank you, I passed all of the wishes onto my daughter and she told Riley -g- She thanks you and everyone!

[JustPiper]

This I would love- freepmail please?

[JustPiper]

I like simple & concise explanations as yours Cindy, thanks!

[Myrddin]

Thanks for the validation. It would need to be something that they are immune to, or trained to work in, wouldn't it?

I would expect them to select a binary chemical weapon. The "team" would have portable gas masks and would access them just as the last "team" member entered the lavatory to complete the task. A eye irritant could be countered with simple swimming goggles...if you put them on BEFORE the stuff is released.

I am stunned, a true update Bump! Thanks!

Interesting remark and accusations, considering how did they know he was muslim since he is black? He could have been a baptist, so his caca holds no truth!

I someone wants to host it and pm me an email to send it to, I saved it -g-

[JustPiper]

Please post when she has full story ok? Thanks bump!

Found this interesting though:

Something's up (and it's not just my teething baby and me). The Washington Post reports today on renewed efforts by the FBI to gather intelligence from Arab/Muslims via targeted voluntary interviews:

FBI agents have launched a series of interviews of Muslims and Arab Americans in the Washington area and across the country, hoping to glean information that could prevent a major terrorist attack during this election year. A few dozen voluntary interviews of community leaders, students, businesspeople and others have been conducted so far, according to attorneys and Muslim activists. Authorities said they do not know how many people will be contacted, but the effort is expected to expand significantly in the next week or so.

Some details on what FBI is asking about:

Several people in California and Arizona have been asked whether they knew anyone who had recently been in the Pakistani border region of Waziristan, regarded as a possible refuge for al Qaeda figures. They were also asked about Abu Nour, which agents identified as a mosque and school in Syria that was popular with American converts to Islam, the attorneys and activists said.

"We were told by the FBI agents that they're concerned there could be a coming threat from people who are recent converts to Islam," said Stacy Tolchin, a San Francisco lawyer who accompanied a Turkish Kurdish immigrant to an interview this week.
