Metes and Bounds - real estate
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metes_and_bounds
general information
the surveying of properties to establish the boundaries is not precise
the 13 original colonies use the very old 'metes and bounds' system - Texas also
other states use a newer system of measurements that went into use in
1785 - the Public Land Survey System
I suspect that GPS can be used to determine locations down to 1 inch
or better - but the million dollar question is - is GPS really useful
for surveying? If I find one boundary is wrong in downtown Boston -
will that cause 500 other boundaries to be wrong? Is it worth the
effort to screw everything up in order to make it "perfect"? On the
other hand - down town Boston is full of streets. Land owners can
squawk all they want about boundaries - but the city will never let
anyone build a structure that obstructs a sidewalk or roadway. So
there are a multitude of "natural" boundaries in downtown Boston.

A county webpage that lists all FDs

there are close to 6,000 counties in the USA iirc

in the county
and no more than 50 have a list of all the fire stations - and that
only happens because someone throws it into the county wildfire plan

of an early stage of cognitive decline associated with obesity.

Mattapoisett MA FD seeks new station
https://www.wanderer.com/news/mattapoisett-fire-station-front-and-center/
Calling it "an elaborate process," Hickey said, "We went through it
three times," referring to assessing space requirements. Each time the
OPM and architect were sent back to the drawing board to squeeze out
costs while preserving the "must have" items that had been identified.
Even with that, the disparity of the estimates between the two firms
was troubling.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lincoln Laboratory,
Lexington, Massachusetts, has been awarded a $2,038,147,146
modification (P00020) to previously awarded contract FA8702-15-D-0001
for the operation of the Lincoln Laboratory Federally Funded Research
and Development Center. This modification provides for advanced
technology research and development activities that focus on long-term
technology development as well as rapid system prototyping and
demonstration. Work will be performed in Lexington, Massachusetts,
and is expected to be complete by March 31, 2020. This modification
brings the total cumulative face value of the contract to
$9,600,000,000, and no funds are being obligated at the time of award.
Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Hanscom Air Force Base,
Massachusetts, is the contracting activity.

adjacent to the base) sorta - they have their own security - but FD

this discussion is interesting - volunteers vs paid around the world
---------------------------
in the usa it is relatively common for a fire truck to respond with
just 1 person on board - and to have other firefighters meet the truck
at the scene - note - this is a very cost effective way to fight fires
I dont know of any other country that does this

this is insane - skin causes food allergies
https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/scratching-skin-primes-gut-allergic-reactions-food-mouse-study-suggests
this is pretty insane
when someone scratches their skin - (maybe because it is itchy) - the
skin produces a special protein (IL-33)
the IL-33 then enters the bloodstream and goes to the gut - the IL-33
then starts a chain reaction in the gut - which causes more "mast"
cells to grow in the gut - which spur on food allergies
"mast cells" are the "lookout cells" - they look for trouble - and
when they perceive trouble, they spew out a bunch of chemicals that
activate an immune system response
personally - if I ingest a bunch of sugar - it can make me itchy and
scratchy - so then I eat a little raw ginger - and in 20 minutes the
itch has gone away - iirc I have done this 3 or 4 times - so it seems
to be real thing - one could jump to the conclusion that the raw
ginger is interrupting the chain reaction somewhere - gawd only knows

usa wins by wto
world trade organization rules in favor of use on china grain tariffs
if you read down to the bottom of the article it says that the USA and
China have collected $350 million or billion in tariffs over the last
year
how much do you want to bet that china collected $175MB and the USA
collected $175MB also?
so the tariff collectors probably collect $100MB in salaries doing
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING USEFUL

Washington County Maine - the other day
there was some traffic about a call in Cherryfield - some chief signed
on and said he was going to the station - fire HQ said - you are on
'county fire' and I wanted to make sure you got the page - chief said
we will be responding shortly - there was no page heard via the feed -
(maybe was not cherryfield - I should go back and check the tape - was
kinda heard to hear)
the feed was either for perry or whiting iirc - which are labeled as 154.19
this leads me to believe that the west county FDs in the cherryfield
area - with columbia and maybe columbia falls etc - are on some other
channel - iirc cherryfied has 154.355 - maybe that is the primary fire
channel in that area
which means that washington county fire has 3 paging channels at least -
east 154.19 - aka "county fire"

1. sun in eyes
2. suicide
3. badly misjudged speed of approach
4. saw earlier fire truck turn left - thought 2nd truck would do the same
5. driver had heart attack or seizure
6. mechanical failure in pickup
7. foot slipped from brake to accelerator
8. distracted by commotion in pickup truck - maybe the baby started to cry loudly
9. maybe the fire truck lights and siren suddenly went off and pickup driver thought that they had cancelled their Code 3 driving and would be slowing down
witnesses said they heard siren and then loud boom - no mention of any noise from pickup truck or any change in siren noise before crash - so apparently it all happened very very fast
