Please note: Thank you for your comments regarding this news site. We do keep stories out of here as a general rule that are reflective of suicidal incidences. We also must remind many of you that there will be word spelling differences in headlines and stories that are outside the United States. I don’t want to spend time arguing that a word like honor is also spelled as honour or odorless comes through as odourless in these reports. A caravan is a camper or perhaps an RV (recreational vehicle). There are more words, but I think you get the idea.
We are talking about carbon monoxide and working toward the prevention of CO poisoning. Slight spelling variations from different countries is insignificant. We are not alone, and we are not alone in this educational effort to raise awareness and save lives. Bob Dwyer, CSME Carbon Monoxide Safety

Bald Eagle Camera Alcoa Bald Eagle Camera, Davenport, Iowa.
NOTE: Camera is temporarily unable to transmit live images. A new camera from a distant, non-disruptive location is being set up.
A friend of mine notified me that the
pair of bald eagles has returned to their nest along the Mississippi River in
Davenport, Iowa. The Alcoa Company has their web cam up and running and viewing
of the nest is possible during daylight hours, Central Standard Time, US. The Alcoa
Eagle website gives a good history of the pair and the company’s involvement
with them. If you haven’t viewed this site through the hatching and growth of
the eaglets, I think you may find it to be quite a live sight to see when you
may have those periodic spare moments. This link will be posted on this site
for those people who may wish to capture the link and watch the cycle of life
of this nesting pair.acmt.net

What does this have to do with carbon monoxide safety?
