2008 in Review PROFESSIONAL PARAMEDIC ASSOCIATION OF OTTAWA 2007 & 2008 IN REVIEW non silba, sed anthar (not for self, but for others) 2007-2008 IN REVIEW PREFACE Welcome to the Professional Paramedic Association of Ottawa’s “2007—2008 In Review”! As this is our first ever “In Review”, it is long overdue (which is why we included the last 2 years of highlights in one publication). Quite a bit of volunteer work has gone into the writing, editing, publishing, print and finance process. Our hope is to showcase some of the talent, commitment and generosity that our paramedics display throughout the year. Most of this giving is channeled through one of the biggest volunteer organizations in the City of Ottawa — the “Paramedic Association”. In the following pages you will find stories and pictures featuring several events that Ottawa Paramedics participated in during 2007 and 2008. Most of these activities were initiated by members who first booked their individual projects in the Special Events Booking area of OttawaParamedics.ca. From there, we col- lected stories, pictures and other information in an effort to archive the great events that paramedics volunteer for throughout the year. To tie it all in, we also submit semi-annual reports to Ottawa Paramedic Service so volunteer time can be tracked and tallied in public reports. In the coming years, this journal will be essential to a number of Provincial and Federal initiatives the PPAO is working on, including many projects that benefit the community at large. Thank you to everyone who participated in events ranging from school visits to car seat clinics to paramedic week activities. Without your selfless volunteerism, there would be nothing to feature in a yearbook! Keep up the great work!

You would be surprised at the amount of interest and numerous questions people have when you park your ambulance and display your equipment on a table at a local fair. People ask anything from “can you check my blood pressure” to “what does atropine do”. I haven’t done one event where someone hasn’t come over to say “thanks” to paramedics in general because another medic provided such excellent care to a family member.

Our best efforts are done to accommodate all requests but we need to build a bigger volunteer list to keep up with the growing demand for Paramedics who volunteer their time in the community.

Peterson School of Forest Resources A state and transition approach was used to model and map fuelbed, fire hazard, and carbon change under different management and fire regimes for the Okanogan- Wenatchee National Forest in central Washington. Landscape metrics showed different patterns of change over time depending upon the metric considered and the fire and management regime modeled. Fuelbeds characteristic of older forest conditions became more common during the first ~100 years of simulation (coverage increased 5 – 20%), except in those locations where wet forests subject to stand-replacement fire occur (coverage decreased 6 – 12%).

  • Our County, Our Story; Portage County, Wisconsin
    Our County Our Story PORTAGE COUNTY WISCONSIN BY Malcolm Rosholt Charles M. White Memorial Public LibrarJ PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS STEVENS POINT, \VISCONSIN 1959 Copyright, 1959, by the PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AT WORZALLA PUBLISHING COMPANY STEVENS POINT, WISCONSIN FOREWORD With the approach of the first frost in Portage County the leaves begin to fall from the white birch and the poplar trees. Shortly the basswood turns yellow and the elm tree takes on a reddish hue. The real glory of autumn begins in October when the maples, as if blushing in modesty, turn to gold and crimson, and the entire forest around is aflame with color set off against deeper shades of evergreens and newly-planted Christmas trees. To me this is the most beautiful season of the year. But it is not of her beauty only that I write, but of her colorful past, for Portage County is already rich in history and legend. And I share, in part, at least, the conviction of Margaret Fuller who wrote more than a century ago that "not one seed from the past" should be lost. Some may wonder why I include the names listed in the first tax rolls. It is part of my purpose to anchor these names in our history because, if for no other reas­ on, they were here first and there can never be another first. The spellings of names and places follow the spellings in the documents as far as legibility permits. Some no doubt are incorrect in the original entry, but the major­ ity were probably correct and since have changed, which makes the original entry a matter of historic significance.

  • Research Resources the Antelope
    Research Resources The Antelope 1 ROVe THE GREAT LAKES Research Resources – The Antelope August 2019 SUMMARY OF THE RESEARCH FILE FOR THE ANTELOPE By Victoria Kiefer, Maritime Archaeologist, Wisconsin Historical Society The Antelope was originally constructed as a passenger packet steamer by shipwright Jacob L. Wolverton at his shipyard in Newport (Marine City), Michigan in August 1861. It was constructed for Eber B. Ward, Esq., and his Ward Line of steamers, plying passengers between Milwaukee and Buffalo, New York, opposite the steamer Montgomery. The Antelope was 186 feet long, 31 feet in beam (width) and 11 feet in depth, with a carrying capacity of 600 tons. It began as a triple-decked wooden passenger steamer in 1861 and was converted to a single- decked wooden lumber steamer in 1869. Then the Antelope was converted once again into a single-decked tow barge in 1883 for use in the grain and coal trades, and finally, was re-rigged as a schooner-barge in 1893 to be towed by another ship for the transport of coal. On October 7, 1897, the Antelope was bound up with a cargo of coal to be dropped off at the Ashland Coal Company dock in Ashland, Wisconsin, in tow of the steamer Hiram W. Sibley. Hiram W. Sibley’s captain was towing the schooner too fast in the choppy sea, and the thirty- six-year-old Antelope’s seams opened. The pumps were started, but water came in faster than it could be pumped out. It was soon clear that the ship could not be saved.
