California woman arrested in theft of 65 Stanley cups - valued at nearly $2,500
By C Mandler
January 22, 2024 / 3:05 PM EST / CBS News
On Jan. 17, police in Roseville, California, discovered a 23-year-old woman had allegedly absconded with 65
Stanley cups from a nearby store — worth nearly $2,500.
"Staff saw a woman take a shopping cart full of Stanley water bottles without paying for them," said the
Roseville Police Department in a statement on Facebook.
After being confronted by retail staff, the woman refused to stop, stuffing the cups into her car. She was
subsequently arrested on a charge of grand theft and has yet to be identified by officers.
"While Stanley Quenchers are all the rage, we strongly advise against turning to crime to fulfill your hydration
habits," said the Roseville police.
One commenter on the post pointed out that in addition to the trove of cups in the trunk and front seat, there
was also a bright red Stanley cup in the cup holder, which they hoped police also confiscated. Colorful Stanley
cups caused consumer mayhem earlier this month when the brand dropped a limited-edition batch of
Valentine's Day colors of the popular tumbler at in-Target Starbucks locations.
Viral video showed shoppers running toward displays of the cups, as well as long lines of consumers waiting
to get their hands on one of the coveted Quenchers.

“When Johnny comes marching home” is a popular song from the American
Civil War (1861 – 1865) that expressed people’s longing for the return of their
friends and relatives who were fighting in the war. It was written in 1863 by an
Irish-American called Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore.

Diversity, Inclusion and Gender Equity in the
Forest Management and Fire Prevention Program in Brazil
Women make up more than half of Brazil’s population and
account for 47 million (~50%) of the labor market. Despite these
numbers, women are still underrepresented in many sectors:
they occupy 37% of leadership positions in private companies;
only 15% and 13%, respectively, are federal Representatives and
Senators; and only 12% of cities have women as mayors. The
fewer women there are in leadership positions and in politics, the
lower the representation and scope of their interests and needs.
Coupled with that, men’s wages are, on average, 24% higher
than women’s who hold the same position. Furthermore,
Brazilian women dedicate, on average, 10.4 hours/week more
than men to household chores and caring for family members
(for example, children and the elderly), a type of work
characterized as “domestic” and unpaid. As a result, women
dedicate less time to professional improvement relative to men.
The fewer women in mixed gender work teams, the less likely
women are to excel in their roles and positions.
In Integrated Fire Management (IFM), women face similar
challenges, whether in coordination roles or technical and
operational ones. In Brazil, specifically, Solis and colleagues1
identified that there are no regulations or guidelines that
promote multiculturalism and gender equity in the processes of
hiring forest fire brigades. Although gender equity in IFM is
recognized, in Brazil this debate is still informal and poorly
documented.

Impact of Climate Change on Firefighting
Extends Beyond Wildfires
Global warming is often mentioned as a factor in the
accelerating frequency and intensity of wildfires. However, there
are other consequences of global warming that impact the fire
service, including new hazards and medical emergencies,
emerging training challenges, population migration, and
technology developments.
Climate change is often discussed as a future event. However,
the impact of wildfires is just the most obvious example of how
climate change is already impacting the world, and fire and
emergency personnel will be called on to mitigate the effects.
The most obvious and extreme impact of global warming can
be seen in the increase of frequency and intensity of wildfires.
Hotter and drier weather is extending the wildfire season (maybe
to become year-round?). Higher temperatures, low humidity, less
rainfall, and high wind increase the likelihood of wildfires.
