In John Barth’s novel The Floating Opera, the disposition of 72 of these allows Todd Andrews to win a suit about a contested will. In the course of doing publicity for Synecdoche, New York, Charlie Kaufman made it known that he did not collect these. Mojo Nixon wrote a song expressing his refusal to create one of these, which noted that Foghorn Leghorn and Huey Long would also refuse to create them. One of these was depicted in a photograph by Andres Serrano which also featured a crucifix. In The Aviator, Leonardo DiCaprio’s character is seen holed up in a room with them. FTP, identify these containers filled with a distasteful liquid. ANSWER: jars of urine (accept equivalents) 2.

I©m also grateful to my mother for believing in art and truth and for supporting the idea of the book; to my brilliant and talented older sister, Lori, for coming around to it; and to my younger sister, Maureen, whom I will always love. And to my father, Rex S. Walls, for dreaming all those big dreams. Very special thanks also to my agent, Jennifer Rudolph Walsh, for her compassion, wit, tenacity, and enthusiastic support; to my editor, Nan Graham, for her keen sense of how much is enough and for caring so deeply; and to Alexis Gargagliano for her thoughtful and sensitive readings. My gratitude for their early and constant support goes to Jay and Betsy Taylor, Laurie Peck, Cynthia and David Young, Amy and Jim Scully, Ashley Pearson, Dan Mathews, Susan Watson, and Jessica Taylor and Alex Guerrios.

Top left: fire attack training in a fire simulator. Top right: kitchen in a burn building. Bottom: commanding officer in front of a burn building. Figure 1 originally by Roy Bäckbom. Figures 2 – 5 originally by Per Hardestam. Keywords: firefighting, procedure, operation, tactics, control Abstract The operational core of firefighting operations was examined. The effects of various firefighting procedures on the fire ground, their impact upon conditions on the fire ground in which decisions by commanding officers are made and the effects of allocating resources in time and space on the fire ground were explored. In addition, various approaches for modelling firefighting operations were discussed. The purpose of the underlying work includes gaining knowledge on how firefighting operations are built-up and how the initiation, execution and coordination of procedures affect the course of events at the scene of a fire. The work was mainly based on experiments with fires in small apartments and with fires in large halls where fire spread is restricted. The firefighting procedures used in the experimental work were restricted to fire suppression and fire ventilation.
