This 2007 Ford F-350 was placed in service today at Station 9. It will service as the primary vehicle for Car 198. The new unit is equipped with a four-person cab, a camper shell, and a slide-out equipment/compartment tray. It was photographed at this morning's house fire on The Circle. Are they gonna letter it anymore than it is? I can see the little emblem and the light bar, but is that all? Beach - 01/01/08 - 20:48 They still keeping the van? Jimmy - 01/04/08 - 07:18 There are no plans to letter the vehicle any further. Unlike most of the fire department vehicles, the intend is to NOT be flashy with decals and striping. The reasoning behind this is prevent suspects or witnesses from fleeing a fire scene upon the arrival of an investigator. This is similar to why police detectives and ATF arson investigators utilize unmarked vehicles. The van has been gutted and will probably be used by Services. RFD574 - 01/04/08 - 11:03 https://www.legeros.com/ralwake/photos/weblog/pivot/entry.php?id=1297[10/14/2019 7:55:19 PM] New Raleigh Investigation Unit - Legeros Fire Blog Archives 2006-2015 Versus putting pictures of it on the internet? Hahahahaha…... Silver - 01/04/08 - 11:21 And a big red light bar on top….very discreet [MTH] - 01/04/08 - 13:16 MTH, you are missing the point…it is not about being discreet. There would already be many fire trucks on the scene whenever an investigator arrives, so being discreet would be out of the question. The intent is to merely avoid advertising the arrival of investigators in hopes of not running off any potential witnesses. The only reason the lighting was installed was to provide investigators the ability to respond in a timely manner. Have you ever tried to go from Station 20 to Station 28 at 5pm? RFD574 - 01/04/08 - 14:11 Acutally, I used to run light bars on my vehicles from the time I became a fireman in 1980 up until 1999 and then I found that the effectiveness of disguised strobes and leds worked just as well when placed correctly. I drive a similar vehicle to the one pictured and as those that know we will attest, I can go anywhere I need to go and the public is well aware of my presence. Besides, I was not faulting the lack of lettering, my point simply was the with the bar light on, it is pretty much identifiable as a fire department vehicle anyways although I agree I probably would not plaster INVESTIGATIONS down the side….sort of like my unmarked Crown Vic…blackwalls and a couple antennas…...ah…..........yep me thinks its a police car….....bingo…. MTH (Email) - 01/04/08 - 23:57 MTH, I find your knowledge about emergency response interesting and I disagree. I have been involved in the selection of emergency equipment on our vehicles for about eight years now. As you say those that KNOW will attest our vehicles are equipped properly for there use and response. RFD457 (Email) - 01/06/08 - 21:26 Great thing about this country, everyone can express their opinions and they all do not necessarily need to be the same. [MTH] - 01/07/08 - 09:33 The van that previously served as Car 198 has been assigned to Station 8, for transporting the personnel of Engine 8, when they respond to haz-mat incidents as part of the regional response team.

Oregon Hill Volunteer Fire Department member Paul Lewis Ellington, 36, died this morning while answering a call for a trailer fire, when his personal vehicle ran off the road. Funeral arrangements are incomplete. WFMY- TV also has details. The accident occurred on Crutchfield Road near Business 29 northeast of Reidsville. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Ellington Family. Lets all PLEASE learn from this and drive careful and wear seatbelts, even in back of an Engine company. Be Safe. Apex Batt Chief - 01/04/08 - 22:59 The same thing I posted on The Watch Desk. No judgements on anyone, just my observations over the years. “Several items in the news (local, state, and national) related to driving that have involved emergency services folks. This stuff is totally preventable- totally. To my firefighting brethren out there- slow down. It is not your fault the world is combustible. For my EMS brothers and sisters- slow down. Speed is not a medical treatment at anytime. If it’s their time, then it’s their time. And for my law enforcing cousins out there- slow down. You can’t catch the bad guys from the back of my ambulance. Be safe. Be careful. Slow down. And buckle-up.

  • Faith Voices Letter
    In Support Of Keeping Houses Of Worship Nonpartisan August 16, 2017 Dear Senator: As a leader in my religious community, I am strongly opposed to any effort to repeal or weaken current law that protects houses of worship from becoming centers of partisan politics. Changing the law would threaten the integrity and independence of houses of worship. We must not allow our sacred spaces to be transformed into spaces used to endorse or oppose political candidates. Faith leaders are called to speak truth to power, and we cannot do so if we are merely cogs in partisan political machines. The prophetic role of faith communities necessitates that we retain our independent voice. Current law respects this independence and strikes the right balance: houses of worship that enjoy favored tax-exempt status may engage in advocacy to address moral and political issues, but they cannot tell people who to vote for or against. Nothing in current law, however, prohibits me from endorsing or opposing political candidates in my own personal capacity. Changing the law to repeal or weaken the “Johnson Amendment” – the section of the tax code that prevents tax-exempt nonprofit organizations from endorsing or opposing candidates – would harm houses of worship, which are not identified or divided by partisan lines. Particularly in today’s political climate, engaging in partisan politics and issuing endorsements would be highly divisive and have a detrimental impact on congregational unity and civil discourse. I therefore urge you to oppose any repeal or weakening of the Johnson Amendment, thereby protecting the independence and integrity of houses of worship and other religious organizations in the charitable sector.

  • 2014 Annual Report (PDF)
    Unitarian Universalist Association 2014 Annual Report Seven Principles There are seven principles which Unitarian Universalist (UU) congregations affirm and promote: The inherent worth and dignity of every person; Justice, equity and compassion in human relations; Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations; A free and responsible search for truth and meaning; The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large; The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all; Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. Unitarian Universalism draws form many sources: Direct experience of that transcending mystery and wonder, affirmed in all cultures, which moves us to a renewal of the spirit and an openness to the forces which create and uphold life; Words and deeds of prophetic women and men which challenge us to con- front powers and structures of evil with justice, compassion, and the trans- forming power of love; Wisdom from the world’s religions which inspires us in our ethical and spir- itual life; Jewish and Christian teachings which call us to respond to God’s love by loving our neighbors as ourselves; Humanist teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the results of science, and warn us against idolatries of the mind and spirit; Spiritual teachings of earth-centered traditions which celebrate the sacred circle of life and instruct us to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature. These principles and sources of faith are the backbone of our religious community.

  • Raleigh, North Carolina
    Coordinates: 35°46′N 78°38′W Raleigh, North Carolina Raleigh (/ˈrɑːli/; RAH-lee)[6] is the capital of the state of North Carolina and the seat of Wake County in the United States. Raleigh is known as the "City of Oaks" for its many Raleigh, North Carolina [7] oak trees, which line the streets in the heart of the city. The city covers a land area of State capital city 147.6 square miles (382 km2). The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the city's population as City of Raleigh 474,069 as of July 1, 2019.[4] It is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country.[8][9] The city of Raleigh is named after Walter Raleigh, who established the lost Roanoke Colony in present-day Dare County. Raleigh is home to North Carolina State University (NC State) and is part of the Research Triangle together with Durham (home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University) and Chapel Hill (home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The name of the Research Triangle (often shortened to the "Triangle") originated after the 1959 creation of Research Triangle Park (RTP), located in Durham and Wake counties, among the three cities and their universities. The Triangle encompasses the U.S. Census Bureau's Raleigh-Durham-Cary Combined Statistical Area (CSA), which had an estimated population of 2,037,430 in 2013.[10] The Raleigh metropolitan statistical area had an estimated population of 1,390,785 in 2019.[11] Most of Raleigh is located within Wake County, with a very small portion extending into Durham County.[12] The towns of Cary, Morrisville, Garner, Clayton, Wake Forest, Apex, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon, and Rolesville are some of Raleigh's primary nearby suburbs and satellite towns.
