fact-check - trumps effort to blame obama for the opioid epidemic

near the end of this article it says that the DEA bowed to pressure
from the drug companies - maybe that is short hand for - drug
companies bought politicians who pressured the DEA

Denver - man found dead in elevator

2017-08-12 Thread Peter Szerlagi 
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/08/11/he-pushed-an-elevators-alarm-button-but-no-one-came-officials-say-weeks-later-his-body-was-found/

alarm was received but mtnce just checked 2 of 3 elevators in the
building - the 3rd elevator was in an area under renovation in the
parking garage - that is where the 82yo male was found weeks later

not just 1 alarm was received - the button was pushed twice and the
alarm was received twice

How many people die every year because alarm activations are not
investigated thoroughly?

As you can see - Google Map addresses in rural areas can be way off.
Does Garmin and Rand McNally also have this problem?

skip the video in the story - see the video in the comments (at YouTube)

low frequency vibrations from wind turbines?

If a FD responds to a wind farm; should they bring some shark food with them?

Safety message - keywords - LOL - I probably shouldn't LOL - it might
be a real thing - can low frequency sounds drive firefighters into
homicidal maniacs?
