My daughter threw up in the back seat of my minivan so I stopped at a fire hydrant to assist her. While I was in the back seat trying to help her, a cop was writing a ticket behind me. She most likely didn't see that there was anyone in the car, and wrote a ticket. Before I knew it, she placed the ticket on the windshield and drove off. If i write this as my alibi with a note from the doctors saying she was sick that day, what are the chances of me winning the hearing by mail? I live in Brooklyn NY btw.
Topology - is a branch of mathematics concerned with spatial properties preserved under bicontinuous deformation (stretching without tearing or gluing). Topology has sometimes been called rubber-sheet geometry, because it does not distinguish between a circle and a square (a circle made out of a rubber band can be stretched into a square) but does distinguish between a circle and a figure eight (you cannot stretch a figure eight in to a circle without tearing). I think I answered the wrong topology, but any how, some info that some other might want to know.
Find a large open area, like a parking lot, if a large body of water is not available. A California forest ranger I know says, that during fire season, the middle of the parking lot is where he puts his car and that location is his only hope of survival if he becomes trapped. If you want to protect your house, here are some tips. Contact your local Fire department to find out how far the brush must be from you home. Also, replace your windows with double glazed windows. They find that the homes that survive often are the ones that have the double panes of glass. The brush fires often start curtains furniture on fire first, due to radient heat coming in the windows. Double panes afford a little more insulation and can be helpful. I saw a new product on a Discovery channel show. A firefighter (retired?) has come up with a product that you can spray on your hope when there is a brushfire coming your way. It is the same polymer that they use in diapers and potting soil. It is a water absorbing polymer that expands and resembles jello. He found a way to put a fine dry powder of it into a hose dispenser. (It looks like you are about to spray fertilizer on your garden.) You attach it to your hose, spray your house and it sticks to your house (windows all) for hours (or was it 2 days). But I am still not sure how safe you would be in the house.
