Patrick, where in the US do you want to live? and why? After living so many years in the US, I would trade places with you anytime. Remember, the grass is not always greener on the other side. If you move to the US with your family, you will ending up on the losing side because you will have to pay for your own health insurance and most American companies don't offer retirement like in Germany. What about the family? Do the kids and wife speak English? Can your wife cook American style because you will be hard pressed to find German products here. America lives off a fast food and most things are artificial. What kind of work do you want to do here? Do you have an employer or family member that can sponsor you and your family? I know its alot of questions, but when you make the step it cost lots of money and if you make the wrong step or decision you could end up losing everyting over here. I'm not trying to scare you but in America its every man for himself. Maine has one of the best social systems...pretty close to Germany right now. So, if you have any questions, ask me. Take care, Horst

G'day Patrick. It looks like your question about RIT/On-Deck has been missed. Might be a better idea to start a new thread with your questions about what those things are? I have very little idea, as we don't use the 'RIT' concept in Australia and I'd never heard of the 'On-Deck' idea. Good luck.

WHAT IS THIS?

GERMANY – Police say flames have torn through a firehouse in a north German town causing damage of €3 million ($4 million). The fire broke out at 4:30 a.m. Sunday in the town of Syke and destroyed six fire trucks. Authorities say the cause is not yet known and is under investigation.

Editor’s note: The Austrian Times reports that the group of firefighters have been branded the world’s worst after their own fire station burned to the ground. All six of the station’s fire engines perished in the blaze in Syke and it took 250 fireman from neighboring towns to finally get the inferno under control. Investigators believe the firemen could have triggered the blaze themselves in a training exercise accident or that faulty wiring was to blame, according to reports in the Austrian Times. The weekend blaze was the second time the brigade has lost all its engines in a fire. The station was rebuilt in 1994 after being gutted by a fire. One local said: “A fire service that can’t keep its own fire station and engines safe doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.”
