Las Vegas, Nevada. ^ Return to Table of Contents - Page 3- Guide to the New York-New York Hotel and Casino 9-11 Heroes Tribute Collection Historical Background The New York-New York Hotel and Casino opened on January 3, 1997, and was the first casino on the Las Vegas Strip to be a city-themed resort. It was modeled after the New York City skyline and includes a replica of the Statue of Liberty. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 marked a major tragedy in recent American history. The country was shaken by a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks: two on the World Trade Center (WTC) in New York City; one on the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.; and an attempted attack on Washington, D.C. that was stopped by a group of passengers, who diverted the plane from its course, causing it to crash in a field outside of Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Shortly after the attacks, a spontaneous memorial was set up in Las Vegas, Nevada outside the New York- New York Hotel and Casino. Thousands of t-shirts and other tributes from around the world were hung along the fence in front of the Statue of Liberty replica, left by people who may not have had the opportunity to visit Ground Zero in New York City. The tributes included shirts from various police and firefighter departments, some of which were signed by their respective members. Other shirts were donated with accompanying letters honoring those who died during the attacks and in the immediate aftermath. In December of 2002, the New York-New York built a glass and granite case in front of the Statue of Liberty replica, creating a rotating display of donated shirts. During this time, the casino worked with the University of Nevada, Las Vegas's Gaming Studies Department to preserve the collection. This memorial remained outside the casino until 2013, when MGM Resorts International started a renovation of the casino for a new promenade, Madison Square Park. In 2011, artist Troy Gillett used the donated t-shirts from the collection to create a double-helix art piece called "Common Threads" to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks. The 32-foot red, white, and blue structure was installed at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Lied Library entrance for a year, and it included approximately 3,000 shirts. Sources: Ahmed, Aida.

    2013 Kansas Fire Incident Reporting System Annual Report What did the Kansas Fire Service do in 2013? Office of the State Fire Marshal Doug Jorgensen Fire Marshal 800 SW Jackson, Suite 104 Topeka, KS 66612 Phone: (785) 296-3401 www.ksfm.ks.gov Kansas Fire Incident Reporting System Kansas fire departments are required under K.A.R 22-5-1 to submit a report for each incident where a response is made by that fire department, regardless of the call type or actions taken on the call. Also included in the requirements are reports for any fire service casualty, injury or death, that occurs while acting in an official role a call, responding to a call, drilling, at the station, etc. Firefighter injuries caused by equipment failures are heavily scrutinized to continue improving the safety of our Fire Service. Kansas does not have a central repository of fire reports. Instead, reports received at the Office of the State Fire Marshal are uploaded directly into the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) housed at the National Fire Data Center (NFDC) at the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA). Each year, the USFA releases the most comprehensive reference on the nature and scope of the fire problem in the United States, Fire in the United States. The agencies and departments participating in the NFIRS make the publication possible. In addition to publications, the data can highlight current and emerging trends for more than fires. A variety of different public safety groups use the information to drive improvements through regulation, creating better equipment, training, education, product recalls, and funding.

  • Glenn Killinger, Service Football, and the Birth

Mealy © 2018 Todd M. Mealy Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2018 ii This dissertation of Todd M. Mealy was reviewed and approved by the following: Charles P. Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee Simon Bronner Distinguished Professor Emeritus of American Studies and Folklore Raffy Luquis Associate Professor of Health Education, Behavioral Science and Educaiton Program Peter Kareithi Special Member, Associate Professor of Communications, The Pennsylvania State University John Haddad Professor of American Studies and Chair, American Studies Program *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines Glenn Killinger’s career as a three-sport star at Penn State. The thrills and fascinations of his athletic exploits were chronicled by the mass media beginning in 1917 through the 1920s in a way that addressed the central themes of the mythic Great American Novel. Killinger’s personal and public life matched the cultural medley that defined the nation in the first quarter of the twentieth-century. His life plays outs as if it were a Horatio Alger novel, as the anxieties over turn-of-the- century immigration and urbanization, the uncertainty of commercializing formerly amateur sports, social unrest that challenged the status quo, and the resiliency of the individual confronting challenges of World War I, sport, and social alienation.
