Sarah sent along this demo of what to do in case of a kitchen fire

 

Kitchen Fire - Read first then watch

 I never realized that a wet dishcloth can be a "one size fits all" lid to cover a fire in a pan! This is a dramatic video (30-second, very short) about how to deal with a common kitchen fire ... oil in a frying pan. Read the following Introduction, then watch the show ... It's a real eye-opener!!

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 a10 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 of either creates the explosive force of two sticks of dynamite.
 
This is a powerful message----watch the video and don't forget what you see. Tell your whole family about this video. Or better yet, send this to them.

Subject:  Safety Alert fm John Cato 8/6/08

This is very troubling what lengths people will go to steal what doesn't belong to them ! I do almost 100% of the time lock my car on the door lock inside when I exit the car. Little did I know that is the best way to lock your car. Read on......

Beware folks. This is news you can use. THIS HAS BEEN CHECKED ON SNOPES

My oldest son came over yesterday- he had to go thousand for work last week. One of the other engineer's traveling to Canada with him, but in his own car had something happen...that I need to share.

While traveling he stopped at the roadside park, similar to what we have here with bathrooms, vending machines etc. He came out to his car less than 4-5 minutes later and found someone had gotten into his car, and stolen his cell phone, laptop computer, gps navigator, briefcase ... you name it.

They called the police and since there were no signs of his car being broke into- the police told him that there is a device that robbers are using now to clone your security code when you lock your doors on your car using your key-chain locking device.  They sit a distance away and watch for their next victim. Since they know you are going inside of the store, restaurant, or bathroom and have a few minutes to steal and run. The police office said ... to be sure to manually lock your car door by hitting the lock button inside the car, that way if there is someone setting in a parking lot watching for their next victim it will not be you.

When you hit the lock button on your car upon exiting, it does not send the security code, but if you walk away and use the door lock on your key chain, it sends the code thru the airwaves where it can be stolen.

I just wanted to let you know about this...it is something totally new to us ... and this is real ... it just happened this past Thursday, June 19th to his co-worker.

So be aware of this and please pass this note on.  Look how many times we all lock our doors with our keys just to be sure we remembered to lock them, and bingo, the guys have our code, and whatever was in the car can be gone.

Bill,

hope all of you are enjoying the weather, Ha ha.  It's been pretty nice up here in Breckenridge with a high of around 70 degrees today.  My biggest regret is that we're heading back to the furnace late next week.  See you then.  Don and Joan
