Forest Fire Information

InciWeb : Incident Information System.

InciWeb is an interagency all-risk fire incident information management system. The system was developed with two primary missions:

1. Provide the public a single source of incident related information
2. Provide a standardized reporting tool for the Public Affairs community

The site provides current incident-level information on the extent, cause, location, and containment of fires. Each incident page provides maps, information on fire behavior, and an RSS feed to get automatic updates on specific fires. You can search the database by state and by incident name.

InciWeb is also available on Twitter.

The Definitive Source for Independent Reviews & Information

Be prepared. This huge site is the best I have found. Survival stories, equipment tests, reviews of knives, guns, and all kinds of other outdoor gear, lots of great info.

• Traffic to this site has grown by the double digits, starting when "things really got depressed economically." Since the site's launch in 1996, it has seen a steady 5 percent growth with 50 percent leaps after major disasters.

Free NRA Memberships

"We must all hang together, or most assuredly, we shall all hang separately."

Spoken By Benjamin Franklin in response to a comment by John Hancock at the signing of the Declaration of Independence, who said they must all hang together, stressing that there must be unanimity in support of independence. Franklin's quote was a play on those words, joking that if they did not hang together, they would be hanged separately for treason.

This is true today. Whether you like the NRA or not, it is the ONLY voice we have for our rights.

The NRA is giving FREE 1-yr memberships to everyone who wants to join.

They are trying to build up their membership to fight pending legislation that impacts our right to keep and bear arms.

It is very important that anti-gun congressmen see how many people they will have to fight to get their legislation through.

https://www.nrahq.org/nrabonus/accept-membership.asp

This can include spouses and children also.
