The Station nightclub fire occurred on the evening of February 20, 2003, in West Warwick, Rhode Island, United States, killing 100 people and injuring 230. The fire was caused by pyrotechnics set off by the tour manager of the evening's headlining band, Great White, which ignited flammable acoustic foam in the walls and ceilings surrounding the stage. It reached flashover within one minute, causing all combustible materials to burn. Intense black smoke engulfed the club within two minutes. Video footage of the fire shows its ignition, rapid growth, the billowing smoke that quickly made escape impossible, and blocked egress that further hindered evacuation.
The toxic smoke, heat, and the resulting human rush toward the main exit killed 100; 230 were injured and another 132 escaped uninjured. Many of the survivors developed post-traumatic stress disorder after the event. This fire was the fourth-deadliest at a nightclub in U.S. history, and the second-deadliest in New England, behind the 1942 Cocoanut Grove fire, which resulted in 492 deaths.
In October 2022, I sent a Rhode Island Access to Public Records request to the Office of the Attorney General of Rhode Island for "all available raw video and/or audio materials involving the fire at the former Station Night Club on February 20th, 2003." A month later, I received a USB flash drive containing 496 audio files in .wav format and 1 video file in .mpg format. LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED!

Between February 26, 1982 and November 14, 2019, the Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station tested its warning siren system annually, usually in November. Most years, it would be tested at 3:45 PM. This was the case for this test.
This 612 was installed circa 1998, as the Pilgrim system was starting to be modernized. The original system of 408s and 115s was installed in 1982, and between 2003 and 2007, were all ripped and replaced with 612s and Modulators.")

Please note the siren filmed here, along with all other sirens in the Pilgrim system, were decommissioned following this test. Between February 26, 1982 and November 14, 2019, the Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station tested its warning siren system annually, usually in November. Most years, it would be tested at 3:45 PM, however this test was moved at the last second to 2:00 PM.
This 612 replaced a 408 sometime between 2003 and 2007, when the Pilgrim system was modernized. The original system of 408s and 115s was installed in 1982, and between 2003 and 2007, were all ripped and replaced with 612s and Modulators.")

A new copy of the 1992 UK PIF, sourced largely from an original PAL VHS recording. This upload has had three graphic images censored similarly to what ephermalfilm uploaded to YouTube from a 16mm print, however, I am making the uncensored version available for those who want to view it as the director originally intended it on the Internet Archive at https://archive.org/details/killing-time-1992.
This programme tells the story of a group of children who decide to use a railway line as a short cut home. One child does not make it across the tracks, being killed by a train.
Includes interviews with train drivers whose trains have killed trespassers, police officers who have had to clear up the aftermath and inform relatives and, finally, with the mother of a teenage victim. The story and the interviews leave the viewer with a clear message not to trespass upon railway property and lines.

Death of a Princess is a British 1980 drama-documentary produced by ATV in cooperation with a PBS station in the United States. The drama is based on the true story of Princess Mishaal, a young Saudi Arabian princess and her lover who had been publicly executed for adultery. Its depiction of the customs of Saudi Arabia led some Middle Eastern governments to oppose its broadcast under threat of damaging trade relations.
This upload is sourced from original Betacam masters of the program which were donated to me by a loving archival enthusiast who will remain anonymous. Some brief moments before the program, between the two master tapes, and before the PBS logo were cut by request to anonymize the source of the masters provided to me. Otherwise, enjoy.")

Nakki wa Tsumujikaze (known here as Nakki) was a Japanese youth/school television drama broadcast on the TBS network from October 11, 1978 to March 12, 1980, Wednesdays from 7:30–8:00 p.m. Contemporary database records give it 64 episodes. It was produced by TBS and Toho.
This master recording from a 1980 dubbed broadcast on New York superstation WOR-TV was obtained in a trade and is an interesting add to the collection, showing an American television station showing Japanese programming long before it grew a massive following.")
