Officials from Arlington’s firefighters union are disappointed after a bill that would have given greater coverage for some health risks was lobbied against by an Arlington representative. Senate Bill 6213 would have added a number of cancers that are presumed to be covered by workers compensation for firefighters and would have provided some other additional health benefits for law enforcement officers as well.

Swissphone has developed a new s.QUAD Voice pager called s.QUAD Voice 360 that has a rotary knob that controls volume and switches between alerting modes. As with the normal s.QUAD Voice, the s.QUAD Voice 360 can be upgraded by a firmware update to a digital paging receiver (POCSAG), or it can work in both modes in parallel as a single device.

The table compares the essential performance characteristics of the most current pagers available in the US. It indicates that the s.QUAD Voice is best when it comes to:

• Extremely Robust: Protection class and drop test, providing the ruggedness and quality for it to last.
• Best Reception, allowing you to extend the coverage of your network.
• Loudest of them all, making this device among the loudest in the world.
• Multi-color alert, its multi-colored alarm LED allows recognizing an alarm even in mute mode.
• Longest Battery Life of up to a week (160 hours) with an ordinary AA (R6) battery.
• Size and weight, providing a design that is comfortable for any user to wear

A 21-year-old Selah man is accused of setting four fires in Yakima early Sunday morning. Investigators identified the suspect from surveillance videos showing someone matching his appearance moving between the fire scenes shortly before 6 a.m., as well as at a nearby convenience store after the fires were set, according to a police affidavit.
