Send us a textGrowing up in Nebraska, I developed a love for God, community, and service. Directly out of high school, I decided to forgo an opportunity to play NAIA college football and pursue an Associate in Fire Protection Technology, from Southeast Community College. I started my fire service career as a resident firefighter in Snowmass Village, CO. I relocated to Prescott, Arizona in 2006, then started my full-time career with Pine Strawberry Fire District. I have served the Central Arizona Fire and Medical Authority since 2006, in all ranks up through Training Chief, along with obtaining my Paramedic certification, and member of the wildland team. I had the privilege of serving for ten years as Political Director, and Executive Officer for the IAFF Local 3066. In my career, I have had the pleasure of serving in many training avenues locally, and at the state level. I also have served as an investigator after obtaining my IAAI Fire/ Arson Investigator I and II. I am a constant learner, and an advocate for higher education. I graduated with a B.S. in Fire Administration, from Columbia Southern University in 2018, magna cum laude. I then completed my Certified Public Manager, through Arizona State University, while lateraling into the Training Division from Engine work. I graduated with my M.A. in Organizational Leadership, with an emphasis in Emergency Management Leadership Concentration, in May of 2023, summa cum laude. Within four-months of graduating with my M.A, I promoted to the rank of Battalion Chief, and lateraledto the Chief of Training. I have a beautiful wife and two kids, whom I am intentional to have by my side throughout my career, and retirement. I have served as coach for my son's little league baseball team, and youth football team. In February, I hope to complete Phase-Training with The Mighty Oaks Foundation, to then serve in the capacity of Team Leader. I currently am humbled to serve as an instructor for ISFSI, with the delivery of NFPA 1400: Roadmap for the Modern Fire Instructor, being disseminated across 25 locations throughout the country over the next year.Email me at 3pointFirefighter@Gmail.ComCheck out our Facebook Page 3 point Firefighter Podcasthttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61560769894306YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAv_hMC8vxrurhIunXtaJXg3 PFF Merchhttps://3-point-firefighter.printify.me/products

Sgt. Justin Collins tells us why the RPD is looking down the 90 for new recruits.

The evolving landscape of law enforcement recruitment and training brings both significant challenges and promising opportunities. As police departments strive to attract and retain new talent, some agencies are shifting away from traditional training models toward approaches that resonate better with Gen Z recruits. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley speaks with Hank Prim, Supervisory Special Agent and State Law Enforcement Standards and Training Administrator in South Dakota, about South Dakota's approach to law enforcement training, particularly the shift from high-stress, military-style academies to a more collegial and problem-based learning environment. Prim discusses the unique challenges faced by rural law enforcement agencies in recruitment and retention and underscores the importance of building trust within the community by training officers to interact with empathy and professionalism. Prim also shares his views on integrating technology, such as virtual reality, into training to enhance scenario-based learning and better prepare officers for real-world situations.

The local chapter of a historic, national magicians organization — once led by Houdini himself — is facing a shortage of members. Now its ranks are rallying with events to woo new magicians.

Secondary teachers are hoping their newly ratified pay deal will be enough to retain teachers and encourage others to join the profession. PPTA members yesterday voted overwhelmingly in favour of a 14.5 percent pay rise over the next two years, bringing the top teachers' pay rate to $103,000 a year. The pay rise follows 18 months of industrial action including strike action, with the PPTA's acting president, Chris Abercrombie describing the deal as "good enough". Abercrombie spoke to Corin Dann.

We're approaching the date of Operation Hooper, but first a bit of bad news for the SADF regarding disease. The heavy rains through November and December of 1987 had created a perfect breeding ground for the flies and mosquitoes that carried hepatitis and malaria. This was impacting the morale let alone the operational capacity of the army. The replacement troopies were on their way by the 19th November but they had to receive additional training on the border before they were let loose on FAPLA. FAPLA too was rearming itself, and new recruits were also arriving at 21 Brigade and other units stationed around Cuito Cuanavale. There was a real expectation building on both sides that something significant was going to happen over the next few months. This kind of war couldn't continue, it had mutated from a low intensity guerrilla war ostensibly fought though Ovamboland to a conventional war fought exclusively in southern Angola. The troops arriving to replace die the national servicemen had no idea what they were in for. This was an old trick of the SADF, most of these men only realised they were going into Angola once they were inside the country. The law stated that they had to volunteer to fight outside the country, but the SADF top brass had got around this by asking if the men were prepared to volunteer once they had crossed the border. Had these troops not "volunteered", they would have left their brothers to fight with fewer hands. So it was a contorted and rather malicious psychological trick these blokes played on the minds of these youngsters - most of them 18 or 19 years old. AS the SADF prepared for Operation Hooper, the SA Air Force was testing a new top secret weapon system on the Buccaneer S Mk 50, known as the H2, built by Kentron, a subsidiary of Armscor. It was a 460 kilogram pre-fragmented, folding winged glide-bomb, controlled by a TV link between the bomb and the aircraft. It was a simple form of missile, with a guidance unit in its nose with its own power generator, driven by a small impeller at the back of the bomb. An impeller is something like the rotating component of a centrifugal pump. A comms pod was carried under the opposite wing of the Buccaneer which setup the TV link - and the weapon could controlled after launch by its parent aircraft.

In Today's Episode with Brad Gerstner We Discuss: 1.) From Humble Beginnings in Indiana to 100 IPOs: When did Brad realize his original love of finance and entrepreneurship? What one single question does Brad ask all potential new recruits to determine if they have hustle? What does Brad know now that he wishes he had known at the beginning of his career? 2.) The Power Law and Supercycles: What is a power law? Why is it the single most important thing in investing? How do the best investors in the world build a framework around supercycles? How does Brad approach market sizing? How does Brad think about market creation when aligning that to his thesis of investing in power laws? How does Brad determine if a large opportunity is a "super-cyle" or a short, time-stamped fad that is unsustainable? How does Brad assess the importance of market timing? 3.) Building Anti-Fragile Portfolios: Portfolio Construction: Why does Brad disagree that the answer to risk mitigation is portfolio diversification? How many companies is enough companies for a diverse portfolio? Price Sensitivity: How does Brad reflect on his own relationship to price? How does this process and mindset change on re-investments? What is needed for Brad to re-invest? Time to Exit: How does Brad analyze when is the right time to exit a position? What are the single biggest mistakes people make when it comes to timing their exit? 4.) The Venture Landscape: Today, What is Happening? Why does Brad believe what has happened over the last 24 months is a great disservice to founders? What are the biggest examples of a complete lack of investor discipline? Why does Brad believe that for all positions valued over $500M, we should apply a 20% discount? Is today's pricing actually just the new normal? How has the public market pricing impacted the deployment of growth stage checks? How will this play out in the next 12 months? Why does Brad believe there is "not blood on the streets yet"? How does the speed of interest rate change impact our ecosystem so dramatically? Items Mentioned in Today's Episode: Brad's Favourite Book: The Snowball: Warren Buffet and the Business of Life
