building a fire is gathering the driest wood for the fire. You have to have enough tinder‚ twigs‚ and wood. The wood shouldn’t be wet or live.

block occurred when Dodge saw that the fire had crossed the gulch ahead of the crew and he redirected them to start ascending up the hill. The smokejumpers could not understand why Dodge would instruct them to go this route when it seemed much safer and more feasible to keep trekking toward the river. This is an example of compression. The smokejumpers were not seeking to find much needed information or clues to help aid them in the process of controlling the fire. The smokejumpers were to set on following

WANKEL ENGINE The Wankel engine‚ invented by German engineer Felix Wankel‚ is a type of internal combustion engine which uses a rotary design to convert pressure into a rotating motion instead of using reciprocating pistons. Its four-stroke cycle takes place in a space between the inside of an oval-like epitrochoid-shaped housing and a rotor that is similar in shape to a Reuleaux triangle but with sides that are somewhat flatter. This design delivers smooth high-rpm power from a compact size. Since

A fire accident I witness That eventful day I could still remember that it was at 6.50am just as I about to leave my house to school I heard siren growls and blares‚ and engine howls - with red light snap on - its way passing my house. Lazy smoke curls out the second story of a commercial block. The engine pulls up and the firemen are jumping off like ship rats. A flame exploded downward; all the building’s windows blow out and it’s like the sky
