XXX: When I was a child, I opened and held a bunch of goats. When all the goats came out, the leader the last turned around and stuck me in a pulp. Two weeks was a huge bite. Since then, goose has been my favorite dish for the New Year.
We remember the heroes of our time.
In 1997 Morgan Stanley was hired by the chief security officer Rick Rescorl, who previously worked in the security service in the same building. The Bank occupied 22 floors in the second, Southern, tower of the World Trade Center, and Recorla spent the first half of his life serving in Vietnam, where he earned the Bronze Star, Silver Star and Purple Heart. In addition, Rescorla had an unusually acute sense of danger.
In 1990, he brought to New York an army friend, a counter-terrorist special and arranged him a tour of the towers. A friend said that if he were a terrorist, he would have entered the underground garage in a truck with explosives. Reskorla asked the administration of the VTC to secure the garage, but it was expected to be rented - expensive, well, and what truck with explosives, you what? When a truck with explosives entered the VTC garage in 1993, it was immediately clear which one. Since then, Rescorla has been in authority and entertained as much as he could. A nightmare business with fire exercises and all kinds of safety exercises. Oral when employees barely moved. I started to measure the speed of descent by a second meter. He prohibited obeying instructions from the administration of the center - only personally from him. Visitors were allowed to enter the office only with an accompaniment. The multi-storey building revealed the main problem: people from the upper floors always skip those below. As a result, they have much less time to escape, and the distance at the same time is more. Rick resolutely reinstructed the staff, insisting that the lower floors be patient. The head of the guard also forbade people to climb to the roof: always only go down. Always is. They hired the same super-qualified guards. Everyone was angry, of course, but he didn’t care positively.
Top managers could discuss a super-profit deal on their 73rd floor, and twenty seconds later jump in pairs down the fire ladder. And behind them, with these eyes, the customers with whom this deal was discussed jumped.
In the mid-1990s he generally recommended the bank to move its headquarters to a low-rise in New Jersey, but: "Rick, we have a rental term until 2006, what are you?"
On September 11, 2001, when the plane flew into the first tower, Rescorla ordered all Morgan Stanley staff to leave the building, despite the building administration's demands that everyone in the South Tower remain calm and stay in their seats. The staff were already able to find a fire exit and build in pairs, even without including the brain. The second plane crashed into the South Tower as Morgan Stanley employees were already descending the stairs. Recorred the oral alternately into the ration and into the megaphone first to command to direct, and then the native songs to encourage. “Everything will be fine. “Don’t forget,” he repeated, “you are Americans.” In the break between the songs, he called and said a few words to his wife, and then continued.
Before the tower collapsed, Rescorla took 2,677 people out of it. Then Rescorla began to climb up to help bring out those who were still in it (he did not count twelve people). The last time he was seen climbing the stairs in the area of the 10th floor, and after the collapse of the tower the body was not found.
On September 5, a few days before the terrorist attack, Rescorl wrote to his friend: "I have accepted the fact that I will have my whole life just poor events Milton's everyday weeds. A few more cups of mock-co in Starbucks, and each next one will seem less tasty.”
I had to attend a vegan wedding at an Ayurvedic institution.
For the first time in my memory, the father of the bride did not pour a sling over the corner, but distributed a little bit of cottlets from the container.
