Too much shear along the coast for this thing to be significant
re: What Should Tennessee do with Christa Pike if She Lives?

Legally speaking the defense will say she’s not mentally competent to understand her sentence and most likely the state will be responsible for keeping her alive, sucks but that’s probably the legal version
re: Watering while on vacation

Thank you mucho. Unfortunately about 60 miles away.
Yeah I’m aware but a big back yard and 60 or so pots. Kinda hard to figure out this problem to get water to all of them
Watering while on vacation

Besides hiring someone, does anyone have a device of some sort they use that you use while on vacation to water a large backyard full of plants that need daily or semi daily watering

Kartchner's has some cornbread dressing stuffed ones that are 10/10.
You may want to do some research about how many homes in your neighborhood have generators, the last time we had a storm there were a lot of natural gas generators that failed because there was so many generators in the neighborhood consuming the available natural gas.

We installed one about 5 years ago, 9,000 gallon saltwater. Very low maintenance and use it daily. I would do it again

Well, yesterday the data came out about the super El Niño being 3.05C,,,,anything above 2C is a “strong” El Niño, and forecasters are estimating that it could top out north of 4C,,,,also yesterday we had a 50mph tropical storm that gained 110mph in a 24 hr period, that’s the second fastest ever,,,,lord save our asses when the ENSO swaps to La Niña for the Atlantic basin
re: NY medic unable to lift stretcher after player suffers major neck injury

The really wild part of this is that powered stretchers have been out for many years, why would you have this pice of gear for a pro sports event is mind boggling
re: Anyone have a Carolina Cooker jambo pot?
Posted by Boston911 on 9/15/26 at 12:04 pm to CrawfishElvis
All of the new ones have a really rough cooking surface. I would recommend finding an old one. They are sold in a lot of antique stores, they cost more but they are much better. You can use a flap disc with a grinder and use finer and finer grits and you can get the new ones really smooth

Did ya trip on shrooms or acid or both? Did ya eat any xtc and or pu--y? And did ya get sand in ya mouth or pass out cause of the smell?

quote:I will go as long as I’m physically capable of going and what I require Assistance I’ll probably join the mobility camp until I become too much of a burden. I worked for a medical contractor who is employed by Burning man.
How many more years do you think you'll continue to work there? Are you employed by Burning Man corporation or contractor (or neither)?
[quote]I assume you’re EM with EMS background?
You are correct!
Any unique challenges for burning man relative to other mass participation events? We can handle a lot of cases, however the most severe are stabilized then flown out, the helo is usually close by.
What qualifications do you expect from medical volunteers? Paid staff are fully credentialed in the state of Nevada. MDs, mid levels, RNs, Paramedics and EMTs, volunteer staff have to hold the same credential, but they are not required to be Nevada credentialed
Do you carry Ativan for the people tripping too hard and having a panic attack? We carry various types of sedatives and the most commonly used as ketamine.
How many AEDs do y’all keep in that city? All the volunteer staff have full medical kits that include AED’s, I can’t tell you how many but they are quite a few.

I absolutely love drugs. All drugs. And can dive off deep into the abyss. However, 24days at burning man sounds like a living nightmare.

I’ve never been to Haiti or Somalia either. But I have no desire to go there just to see what it’s all about. Pictures pretty much show me all I need to know about the “experience”. Only pictures don’t have smells.
quote:for the first eight or nine days we eat at the commissary that is provided by Burning Man, three square meals a day and I would rank it probably a six out of 10, and then once our camp fully sets up the kitchen, they cook for us for the remainder of the time and I would give it a seven out of 10 . And then many mini camps throughout the event cook food and give it away and those range from grilled cheese sandwich sandwiches two pancakes to grilled meat in one year I ate a fresh lobster roll from a camp in Maine.
How is the food?
quote:we use three 35 x 25 medical grade tense that also have two 20 x 20 additions and then 2 20 foot long trailer trailers that are attached to them. We do an extraordinarily good job of cleaning that up and they are fully air-conditioned in fact sometimes it’s too cold in there. We were very hard to keep it as clean as possible, but invariably the dust does get in either when we have very strong winds or attendees who are covered and does that bring it in but we clean multiple times a day
How do you setup the medical ops buildings to try to keep the dust and dirt out? Are there special portable buildings with positive pressure HVAC systems? Curious as to how this is handled. I assume you don't want to be cleaning wounds and doing stitches in a dirty environment.
