Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
The REAL DEAL IS -

On August 11, 2010 NASA announced that it was less than 2 weeks away from initiating Project GRIP (Genesis and Rapid Intensification Processes) – their quest for the holy grail of hurricane research. Project GRIP discovered the exact conditions required to kickstart a tropical depression into a hurricane. Scientists already knew how hurricanes develop and how to steer them but NASA wanted to perfect the processes that intensifies depressions to form into very intense, spinning storms of mass destruction. NASA was creating a weather modification weapon of mass destruction.

NASA used various weather modifying technology to develop, intensify and steer a hurricane. The available technology included a powerful microwave radiometer and a “radar” and a NASA-designed and built lidar (laser radar). The laser radar were mounted on a Global Hawks and were used to heat the top of a hurricane – to weaken a hurricane and steer them. The “radar” that NASA used was the Sea-Based X-Band Radar - a floating, self-propelled, military controlled and operated mobile radar station capable of operating in high winds and heavy seas. The Sea-Based X-Band Radar Platform (SBX) is part of the U.S. Defense Department Ballistic Missile Defense System.

There are THREE US HAARP Weather Modification systems – the land based system in Alaska, the Sea Based SBX and the mini shuttle X-37B were all built for use as military weather modifying weapons of mass destruction – in direct violation of the Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques

Signed in Geneva May 18, 1977
Entered into force October 5, 1978
Ratification by U.S. President December 13, 1979
U.S. ratification deposited at New York January 17, 1980

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
thanks for the true update OP. it is a shame how the media stirs things to keep the sensationalism going. my prayers are with u.
 Quoting: J-Honey


Appreciate the update too. This should be a lesson learned for everyone. Prepare and be aware and vote like your life depends on it because it does.

I watched Geraldo Obama FOX bitch tonight only because he was talking to the people in effected areas. It appeared more of an Obama love fest with all the FEMA government praise dripping out of Geraldo's mouth. Anyhow someone in the crowd said something to Geraldo and he called them rude and headed toward them and then it cut to a commercial. Just wonder what was said. Anyone know?

You're going to the wrong areas for food and supplies.

I just came back from Commack, Deer Park and Northport which is just a 20-30 minute drive from the South Shore. Plenty of supermarkets open and packed with produce. Trader Joe's in Commack all stocked. The big shopping mall in Deer Park open, including the NY Sports Club. People were jogging on the treadmills and swimming in the pool.

Also got a full tank of gas two nights ago in Northport. Only two cars in front of me.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2271438


I hear you. It's block to block good and bad in some cases. I am so close to utter devastation areas yet life goes on elsewhere.

FEMA announcing these creepy "Feeding Stations" situated nowhere close to where they are needed. All over the radio telling people to drive to them. I tend to believe FEMA is aware there is a gas shortage.

My wife spent the day out looking for gas. She gave up. It's just not that important right now.

I think the local government officials are focused on reelection and are over promising. And the Fed's are pushing misinformation left and right.

Someone asked about elections. I don't think anyone in NY, NJ, CT are focused on the elections at the moment. Obama made his appearance for the press in NJ and really left us New Yorker's feeling left out. Not a surprise from the president.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26922019


Really? I didnt realize he didn't show in NYC. Guess he had a date later that day in LV
 Quoting: littlemiracles

Actually Bloomberg asked him to stay away from NY - told the President they had too much to do and suggested that he visit NJ and represent. As much as I'd like to I can't blame Obama for not going to NY he wanted to, but as most of us know a Presidential visit requires a boatload of security and preps - something that most storm ravaged areas just can't spare on a Presidential Photo Op.

I am sorry to hear that, but I live in the real world, and in my real world his claims are absurd. Weather knowledge is valuable. With that said, I hope all will be good with you and yours soon.
 Quoting: Desert Fox


We are well and ready as we can be for any further rounds of this stuff. We prepped to the extent of having a generator and fuel, with electricity we can pump well water and all is good. But the main thing is that we didn't get flooded. Even non-preppers around here are OK if a bit uncomfortable.

What matters more than prepping is not having the storm pick you out for special punishment.

Are you saying that all we have is weather knowledge but we cannot steer storms? Or that we would never do such a thing?

Think of this: why did GWB's storm (Katrina) hit worst the black areas (lowland) of New Orleans, while BO's disasters (Deepwater Horizon, Mississippi and Missouri River flooding, Irene, last year's Halloween snowstorm, now Sandy and the followup storm coming) affected almost entirely white areas?

Do you think it's just a coincidence?

I know the Eastland patents proclaim altering the Jet stream by a small amount (which can add up over time) it's just that I think you need WAY MORE energy then is practically available to steer anything outside of a few weeks.

Now you could intelligently nudge that spot (stone) to keep ahead of the wave of the (jet stream) river but...

Manufactured?? Do you really want to look this stupid?????
 Quoting: Desert Fox


I made a thread explaining why this storm couldn't just be a coincidence. It is pure common sense....something you can ask yourself and almost feel. It will take you at least 5 mins to read through. You responded to my post barely seconds after posting without even opening the thread asking me if I want to look stupid..

Thread: Sandy Staged to push Global Warming Fraud - Obama's unprecedented response is the clue.

If you did open the thread and read through I am sure you might be the one that might look stupid for believing that this storm was purely coincidental.

And if it was the word "manufactured" that got to you, well I meant it was controlled and stirred perhaps even created.
 Quoting: Ohwell


I refuse to waste my time on such nonsense.
 Quoting: Desert Fox


Then stop wasting our time with you're post in a conspiracy website, for this storm was engineered with weather manipulation and space based weapons. The Russians and American astronauts arrived at the international space station just before this storm was created.

Is it just a coincidence that this storm stalled long enough to make landfall 38 years (11) to the day of the 1929 stock market crash?? The NYSE was shut down for the ritual for the banking elite. Also, for another blood sacrifice the HMS Bounty that sank of the coast and 14 of 16 were rescued, well the captain was lost at sea and the other poor soul who succumbed to the sea was the great great great great great grand daughter of Fletcher Christian, yeah that's right a blood relative of the man who staged the actual Mutiny on the Bounty.

Yeah but this is just a coincidence and we are all whack jobs right?? NO, we see the dots and we are of good moral fortitude and we believe in the truth and want to live clean, righteous lives not infringed by satanic psychopathic overlords.

So if you can't be bothered researching the TRUTH about the conspiracies on a conspiracy site then what are you here for in the first place?? Something about you never sat well with me from quite a few of your posts I've read. Because I trust my gut and if I'm wrong I have no shame in admitting it. Ever!!

Sorry for the rant, kind of, I believe we are all suffering under a lot of low frequency vibrations in our atmosphere, and those who know, know why.

U don't need no gasoline. That is why u got land, u don't stomp it down with concrete so nothing grows. U Grow food on it and if everyone does this EVERYONE has food, and u dont need gas.

Its the wrong time to say hey you should done whatever.

However when is it the right time? when your sitting in your ac in front of your tv on ur couch taking about how ur a playa cause i got a job and gasoline and electricity?

When the fuk would you ever listen anyway. Not even government can stem the tide of natures culling.

My heart goes out to everyone in the NE. Living along the gulf coast and having to make it through Ivan, the edges of katrina as well as other hurricanes over the years..I know some of what you guys are going through. Its just amazing how much we count on electricity in this day and time.. We lost power for 10 days during Ivan...national guard trucks on corners giving out free bags of ice was very well appreciated...and the guards with rifles standing at the entrance of walmart (which was running on generator) only letting in so many people at a time to get things they needed was a very surreal experience as well. Gl and keep your chins up...it'll get better...it just feels like you are alone in a world where nobody cares...trust me I know. But believe me there are many of us who care. :)

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
Guys, you need to move out to the midwest. Theres never been a power outage longer than 12 hours !

Even in the worst of winter storms, they get you connected

Abundant well water and so many people have wood burning stoves.

Plus plenty of cattle and crops and delivery trucks can get into town from any direction.

Even if your stranded on the road during a freak storm, they had the National Guard doing rescues of people from their car right away.

Theres too much importance here to let the place go and delay help.. They protect all the military bases, and bread baskets and land where the corporations raise the cattle.

Midwest is the way to go. You can have a wood burning stove, and your own underground aquifer water..

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
Didn't read all the pages, but did get the general gist.

Glad you got your power back on ... since with power you can have heat and keep food. One big thing to keep in mind for those who have never been through a HUGE disaster before: It takes TIME to get basic infrastructure back up and running! Those along the Gulf Coast know this since they have been hit many times in the last 100 years. Those in parts of Florida know this since they have also been hit hard a few times. Shoot ... even those in tornado country who have had to deal with the mega tornadoes know this.

By mid next week the "easy to repair" places will mostly be back t some semblence of normal. For the "hard hit" and "hard to repair" locations, well your lives may be different going forward.

Government ... and volunteer organizations ... can only do so much when Mother Nature decides to spank the human race. It is NOT the fault of government that it happened ... and government can NOT right things quickly if it is B-I-G.

Patience and a good attitude about life are what counts when life becomes difficult. If this storm is the worst disaster that happens in a person's life ... WELL THEY ARE LUCKY.
Best of luck

Your trying to screw up a decent thread.

AC, if people don't start waking up to the fact that the US Government owns Weather Modification Weapons of Mass Destruction then more and more Sandy's will happen with higher degrees of devastation destroying more of the land we call home.

Re: Sandy from the South Shore Long Island - Just got power & Internet back. Here's the REAL DEAL
Thank you for your report OP. My heart feels for your situation and all involved in this HAARP attack on Americans. It sounds like you are keeping it together psychologically due to the fact that you stay informed with what the elites have planned for us. Love and Light...NO FEAR!

No preperation can stop your home from sliding into the ocean or bays or stop 4 feet of flooding waters which is what happened across NY and NJ.

First of all, its called insurance.

Second, you can prevent it. Build a concrete home.

You are a tard.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14969347


Are you 5 years old with name calling? Guess so. Get your facts straight. If you think insurance covers water damage from a hurricane, I have a bridge I can sell you. And tell the hundereds of people who lost their homes to the sea to go back 50 years and rebuild with concrete. Yea, I am dealing with a 5 year old. I'll go warm your baba now.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8318084


There are laws preventing you from building concrete homes, so that you cannot safeguard your home.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1471245


lol no there are not. And retards on GLP need to be called retards.

Insurance covers water damage from hurricanes if you purchased it you fucking moron. Christ...

PREPPING FUTILE

NO POWER = SPOILED FOODS

Prepping FUTILE
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13398705


That is quite possibly the dumbest thing ever said on GLP.
Prepping is a no brainer. Especially if you have advance notice that a storm is coming. I've been through my share of storms living in Florida. Ivan was a cat 3/cat 4 with over a 16 foot surge so no one say I haven't dealt with anything like Sandy.
I warned friends and family living in Jersey and in New York. Most blew me off or said they were prepping but their idea of prepping is so much different than those that have gone through bad storms before. I stressed they gas up and buy extra gas containers. Most didn't listen. I told them we're told to have at least 3 days of preps but I always keep at least 2 weeks worth in trunks ready to go with me if I'm forced out of my home for any reason. Again, they thought it was overkill.

Thankfully They all survived the storm and are doing OK. They're constantly complaining about the gas and water and have all promised me they'll take any future storms much more seriously. Live and learn. Everyone thinks shit won't happen to them.
