Who is liable for fire safety at home?

Posted by admin on October 12th, 2010 and filed under fire safety | 4 Comments »

A relative of mine who lives in a property owned by me is ‘reckless’ at times with her cigarettes. There have been instances of slight fire damage, God knows how a major incident hasn’t developed yet. Am I liable if an incident develops, as I know ‘what she is like’?

The occupier is responsible for that sort of thing.
The owner/landlord is responsible for ensuring that appliances etc are legal and safe.

If there was a fire and it was caused by their carelessness then although it would be your insurance which would initially pay you (or your insurance) could then claim from them.

Is anybody going to the fire safety thing tonight?

Fire Safety Tips | Kitchen Oil Fire

Posted by admin on July 14th, 2010 and filed under fire safety | 10 Comments »

Dramatic 30-second video about how to deal with a common kitchen fire … oil in a frying pan. You probably never realized that a wet dishcloth can be a one size fits all lid to cover a fire in a pan! Or that pouring water on an oil fire WILL have disasterous results!!

At the Fire Fighting Training school they would demonstrate this with a deep fat fryer set on the fire field. An instructor would don a fire suit and using an 8 oz cup at the end of a 10 foot pole toss water onto the grease fire. The results got the attention of the students.

The water, being heavier than oil, sinks to the bottom where it instantly becomes superheated. The explosive force of the steam blows the burning oil up and out. On the open field, it became a thirty foot high fireball that resembled a nuclear blast. Inside the confines of a kitchen, the fire ball hits the ceiling and fills the entire room.

Also, do not throw sugar or flour on a grease fire. One cup creates the explosive force of two sticks of dynamite. This is a powerful message; watch the video and remember what you see. Tell your whole family about this video. Or better yet, send them the link to it.

Let’s Play Final Fantasy VI #67 – Fire Safety Week

Posted by admin on July 5th, 2010 and filed under fire safety | 25 Comments »

In this episode, I have many preparations to make with our 8 party members before searching for another of our old friends. Meanwhile, Shadow still isn’t resting easy.

Veldt Checklist:
Win up to 4 Behemoth Suits from SrBehemoths
Learn Black Dragon, Osteosaur, Tyranosaur, Prussian, and SrBehemoth Rages.

Obviously, there are some better Rages available for certain situations, but I figured that I would minimize the work needed to be done in the World of Ruin for Gau.

Also at the Colosseum, bet 2 Behemoth Suits to win 2 Snow Mufflers from Outsider (Setzer).

Shopping List:
2 Circlets (Jidoor)
30 Fire Skeans (Maranda)
20 Bolt Edges (Maranda)
3 Earrings (Albrook)

The reason I have my party setup with less than optimal equipment is so that I don’t have to constantly switch equipment between them.

If you are watching this immediately after uploading, it takes YouTube a little while to finish processing the video for high quality.

Thanks for watching!

When did you teach your kids about fire safety?

Posted by admin on June 22nd, 2010 and filed under fire safety | 2 Comments »

What to do when the house catches fire, the escape route, stop, drop and roll…etc? Do you practice the escape routes? How often?

You need to practice and actually set off the alarm while the kids are sleeping so they get used to the sound. Many kids will sleep right through it!
You should probably practice twice a year.
You should have an escape route and a place to meet outside.
You should always help a child under the age of 3 – they cannot be expected to get out by themselves.

I don’t practice, my son is only 18 months old. But I will when he’s older.
