Hurricane Sandy Aftermath Video

Hurricane Sandy Aftermath Video

NEW YORK CITY (ABC News) - Here's the videos with closed captions of Hurricane Sandy aftermath. Inside the eerily still metropolis the day after Frankenstorm.



It blasted the ocean itself over dunes, seawalls and berms and into downtowns, tunnels and subways. It killed dozens of people, destroyed famed landmarks and amusement parks, pushed houses off their foundations and toppled trees. It virtually shut down New York City, the nation's largest city, with major airports, highways, and bridges and tunnels in and out of Manhattan shut down, just as they were after 9/11.



For millions of people in New York City and elsewhere, the lights remain out, communications remain down and floodwaters, downed trees and power lines still make roads impassable.




Superstorm Sandy: Death Toll Up to 50, but Some Steps Toward Recovery.






However, some of the hardest-hit areas on the East Coast were beginning to take the first steps towards recovery. For instance, some New York bridges, tunnels, highways and airports reopened or were slated to be reopened by Wednesday morning.








So far, Sandy has been blamed for at least 50 people, according to The Associated Press, and left more than 8 million customers without power. The number of dead continued to rise by the hour a day after the storm made landfall near Atlantic City, N.J., and rocked states including New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland, North Carolina and West Virginia.

President Obama: 'This is a Serious and Big Storm'

WASHINGTON - Hurricane Sandy Preparedness Press Conference - US President Barack Obama: 'This is a Serious and Big Storm'.



Much of the mid-Atlantic and northeastern United States is braced for the onslaught of wind, rain, high tides and even snow Hurricane Sandy is forecast to deliver on Monday and Tuesday.



The massive storm 'Frankenstorm' effects already were being felt Sunday night along the Atlantic beaches in North Carolina and Virginia, and rain bands extended far inland. As I write this, it is raining in the nation’s capital and the winds have picked up.



One of those emergency personnel is the president of the United States, Barack Obama, who on Sunday visited the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which is overseeing what is expected to be a major disaster as Sandy crosses the New Jersey coast on Monday...

Video by hourlyupdates



Here is a White House transcript of their remarks:



THE PRESIDENT: Well, good afternoon, everybody. Obviously, all of us across the country are concerned about the potential impact of Hurricane Sandy. This is a serious and big storm. And my first message is to all the people across the Eastern seaboard, Mid-Atlantic, going north, that you need to take this very seriously and follow the instructions of your state and local officials, because they are going to be providing you with the best advice in terms of how to deal with this storm over the coming days.



We just had an excellent meeting with the FEMA team here, the various agencies that are in charge, including the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy and others that are going to need to respond very quickly.



Under Craig Fugate’s leadership here at FEMA we’ve had a chance to talk to the regional officials as well. And I just had a phone call with the governors of the potentially impacted states, as well as some of the major cities in the region.



At this stage, everybody is confident that the staging process, the prepositioning of resources, commodities, equipment that are going to be needed to respond to this storm are in place. But as Craig has emphasized, this hasn’t hit landfall yet, so we don’t yet know where it’s going to hit, where we’re going to see the biggest impacts. And that’s exactly why it’s so important for us to respond big and respond fast as local information starts coming in.



I want to thank all the members of the team for the outstanding work that they’re doing. But the other thing that makes this storm unique is we anticipate that it is going to be slow moving. That means that it may take a long time not only to clear, but also to get, for example, the power companies back in to clear trees and to put things back in place so that folks can start moving back home.



So my main message to everybody involved is that we have to take this seriously. The federal government is working effectively with the state and local governments. It’s going to be very important that populations in all the impacted states take this seriously, listen to your state and local elected officials.



My message to the governors, as well as to the mayors, is anything they need, we will be there. And we’re going to cut through red tape. We’re not going to get bogged down with a lot of rules. We want to make sure that we are anticipating and leaning forward into making sure that we’ve got the best possible response to what is going to be a big and messy system.



So again, thank you, everybody. Craig, would you like add to something?



MR. FUGATE: Again, as the President says, it’s going to really come down to the public heeding those evacuation orders, taking protective measures. If they haven’t gotten ready, they can go to Ready.gov. Get information on how to protect them and their families, but also check on your neighbors. This is going to be a big storm. We need to be there for each other.



THE PRESIDENT: Okay. Let me emphasize that again Ready.gov for the general public. If you need to know how to respond, that’s where you can get centralized information.



But I think Craig’s point is exactly right. In times like this, one of the things that Americans do is we pull together and we help out one another. And so, there may be elderly populations in your area. Check on your neighbor, check on your friend. Make sure that they are prepared. If we do, then we’re going to get through this storm just fine. But we’re going to have to make sure that we are vigilant, and vigilant for a couple of days. Don’t anticipate that just because the immediate storm has passed that we’re not going to have some potential problems in a lot of these communities going forward through the week.



All right. Thank you very much, everybody.

Frankenstorm Prompts Mass Evacuation In New York City

NEW YORK CITY - Hurricane 'Frankenstorm' Sandy - The mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg ordered the mandatory evacuation of hundreds of thousands of residents as Hurricane Sandy roars towards the east coast of the United States and parts of Canada, bringing punishing winds, heavy rainfall and storm surges.



At a press conference Sunday, Michael Bloomberg said some 375,000 people in a number of coastal areas including Coney Island, Lower Manhattan and parts of the Queens neighbourhood would need to leave their homes. He said those affected would have to stay with family and friends outside of the evacuation area or at one of the 72 shelters the city has set up.



Officials in New York have also ordered the closure of its public transportation system, beginning at 7 p.m. ET on Sunday, causing problems for those trying to leave the affected area on buses and subways... Read more http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2012/10/28/hurricane-sandy.html

New York City announced the closings of it mass transit and school systems, both the nation's largest, and ordered residents to leave some low-lying areas Sunday ahead of the massive storm approaching the eastern third of the U.S. Video by AssociatedPress



Hurricane Sandy: 'Don't Be Stupid, Get Out And Go To Higher, Safer Ground,' Officials Said.





ABC NEWS - Tens of thousands of people in coastal areas have been ordered to evacuate their homes before Hurricane Sandy pounds the eastern third of the United States with life-threatening storm surges, forceful winds and rainfall that could cripple transportation and leave millions without power.



"Don't be stupid. Get out and go to higher, safer ground," New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said today. "Let's get to work on this. We know how to do this. We've been through this before."



States of emergency were declared from North Carolina to Connecticut. Coastal communities in Delaware were ordered to evacuate by 8 p.m. tonight.



As of 5 p.m. EST today, Sandy was moving toward the northeast at nearly 15mph, slightly faster than it was measured earlier today. It is expected to take a turn to the north and then northwest, bringing the center of the nearly 900-mile storm to be near the mid-Atlantic coast Monday night.



Sandy is expected to bring potentially life-threatening storm surges on the coast ranging from several feet to potentially as high as 11-feet in the Long Island Sound area of New York, said Rick Knabb, director of the National Hurricane Center..

Membawa Tokek Dalam Perjalanan

Membawa Tokek Dalam PerjalananHalo sahabat pembaca setia blog infoqudrat, apa kabarnya hari ini? mudah-mudahan Anda dalam keadaan sehat selalu. Kali ini saya menulis artikel baru yang berjudul Membawa Tokek Dalam Perjalanan. Oke kita langsung saja ke pembahasannya. Apabila Anda ingin membawa tokek dalam perjalanan jauh maupun dekat, caranya sebagai berikut :

Pertama-tama Anda harus menyiapkan bambu yang berukuran besar dan longgar untuk badan tokek. Anda dapat menggunakan bambu bitung. Lalu potong-potong bambu tersebut menggunakan gergaji. Pemotongan tepat pada setiap ruasnya yang ukurannya sama panjang, supaya mudah dan rapi sewaktu bambu dimasukan ke dalam kardus.

Bambu yang sudah dipotong, kulit bambunya dibelah sampai berbentuk persegi empat, ini dimaksudkan supaya bambu tidak bergerak-gerak atau terjadi pergeseran selama di perjalanan. Selanjutnya, masukan tokek kedalam bambu. Sebelum tokek dimasukan ke dalam bambu jangan lupa Anda memasukan makanan tokek berupa jangkrik ke dalam bambu dalam jumlah yang cukup.

Setelah tokek berada di dalam bambu beserta makananya, segera tutup ruas bambu tersebut dengan kawat jaring atau kasa atau menggunakan karung plastik yang dilubangi agar tokek dapat bernapas. Setelah itu, bambu disusun di dalam kotak kardus yang telah dilubangi dibagian sisi yang mengarah ke ruas bambu yang berfentilasi atau ujung bambu yang ditutup kawat atau karung plastik yang tersebut diatas. Lalu tutup kardus dengan ketat dan rapat, agar bambu tidak bergerak atau bergeser didalam kotak kardus. Kardus yang sudah ditutup rapat segera diikat menggunakan tali atau plester atau lakban. Bambu dimasukkan di dalam kardus untuk menjaga kehangatan suhu di dalam bambu agar tetap terjaga, apalagi Anda membawanya di dalam mobil yang ber AC.

Tokek yang sudah dipacking tersebut siap untuk dimasukan kedalam mobil yang akan mengangkut tokek tersebut. Akan tetapi jangan lupa, letakanlah kotak kardus yang berisi tokek tersebut di atas jok mobil Anda, atau bisa juga diletakan diatas busa yang tebal di lantai mobil Anda. Apabila Anda menggunakan Bis, carterlah satu bangku khusus untuk meletakkan tokek tersebut. hal ini karena untuk menghindari agar tokek terbebas dari adanya hentakan yang keras saat mobil atau bis berjalan. Sehingga tokek tidak kaget dan stres.

Mengawinkan Ikan Cupang

Sobat pembaca blog infoqudrat, apakah anda termasuk hobi memelihara ikan cupang dalam akuarium? Mungkin pernah terlintas dalam pikiran Anda ingin beternak ikan cupang dengan cara mengawinkannya. Nah agar Anda sukses Mengawinkan Ikan Cupang, maka ikuti tips berikut.
    Mengawinkan Ikan Cupang
  • Untuk membiakannya atau mengawinkan ikan cupang, pilihlah ikan yang ekornya lebar dan siripnya tebal. Selain itu, ikan memiliki bentuk ekor 180 derajat, badan besar dan ekor memanjang. Pilihlah ikan yang terbiasa bermain ditengah atau dasar air dan bukan di permukaan air. Adapun kombinasi warna cupang yang baik yaitu ikan yang ekornya dengan sirip sempurna dan tidak berantakan.
  • Untuk tempat pemijahan, cupang tidak memerlukan tempat yang luas. Anda dapat menggunakan akuarium kecil, baskom, toples atau ember plastik. Sebelum akuarium tersebut digunakan untuk tempat pemijahan, akuarium tersebut direndam terlebih dahulu dengan larutan PK encer dan akhirnya dibilas dengan air bersih. Adapun untuk mencegah jamur dan penyakit sebaiknya dinding akuarium digosok dan dibilas menggunakan air bersih.
  • Air yang akan digunakan sebaiknya diendapkan selama 3 hari terlebih dahulu. Dengan suhu antara 21-31 derajat celcius atau 25 derajat celcius. Dalam akuarium perlu diberi tanaman yang telah dibersihkan. Misalnya, enceng gondok atau kayu apu.
  • Setelah tempat pemijahan selesai disiapkan, masukan terlebih dahulu cupang jantan ke dalam akuarium dan tunggulah sampai cupang jantan membuat sarang-sarang busa. Jika busa sudah tampak dipermukaan air, masukan cupang betina yang sudah matang kelamin. Selang 3-4 hari perkawinan selesai maka cupang betina akan menghasilkan 200-400 telur yang sudah dibuahi pejantan.
  • Jika cupang betina selesai bertelur, angkat cupang betina tersebut dan biarkan cupang jantan ditempat pemijahan. Mengapa cupang betina dipisah? Hal ini agar  cupang betina tidak memakan telurnya sendiri. Sementara itu, cupang jantan ditinggal dipemijahan karena sangat membantu proses penetasan. Usahakan cupang jantan diberi makan yang cukup agar tidak memakan telurnya. Dan setelah menetas, pisahkan pejantan. Pada usia 2-3 hari, benih tidak perlu diberi makan karena dalam tubuhnya masih terdapat kuning telur. Setelah memasuki hari ke-4, benih perlu diberi makan infusaria atau sejenis plankton yang bisa dibeli di toko ikan hias. Pada hari ke-8, burayak bisa diberi makan kutu air. Menginjak usia 1 bulan, anakan cupang harus dipisahkan sendiri-sendiri dalam botol untuk pembesaran.
Demikian sobat pembaca setia blog infoqudrat, semoga artikel tentang Mengawinkan Ikan Cupang dapat bermanfaat.


Memaksimalkan Kemolekan Ikan Hias Arwana

Memaksimalkan Kemolekan Ikan Hias ArwanaMemaksimalkan Kemolekan Ikan Hias Arwana adalah artikel yang saya tulis di kesempatan yang baik ini. Sahabat pembaca setia blog infoqudrat, mari kita langsung saja ke pembahasannya ya. Untuk mendapatkan ikan arwana dengan keindahan yang maksimal dapat Anda lakukan dengan perawatan yang benar. Perawatan tersebut dapat dimulai dari akuarium, dengan menjaga kualitas air dan memberi pakan yang tepat. Untuk akuarium setidaknya Anda menggunakan akuarium dengan ukuran 140 cm x 70 cm x 60 cm. Ukuran tersebut digunakan apabila ikan Anda berukuran 20-30 cm dengan bentuk ideal persegi panjang. Anda perlu menggunakan akuarium dengan ukuran tersebut agar ikan hias arwana Anda lebih leluasa berenang. Adapun akuarium yang berukuran kecil dapat menghambat pertumbuhan ikan bahkan dapat menyebabkan ekor menjadi patah dan punggung bengkok.

Untuk airnya, masukkan hingga 2/3 dari tinggi akuarium. Sebaiknya Anda menggunakan air tanah. Apabila Anda menggunakan air PAM maka air tersebut diendapkan terlebih dahulu selama minimal 24 jam. Sebenarnya Anda juga bisa menggunakan air minum isi ulang, akan tetapi air tersebut telah kehilangan bakteri pengurai yang bermanfaat. Hal ini karena air tersebut telah mengalami proses sterilisasi. Sebelum dimanfaatkan, pastikan kualitas air sesuai syarat. Syarat tersebut yaitu memiliki derajat keasaman air (pH) 6.5-7.5 dengan kesadaan (dH) 3-5. Akuarium juga perlu dilengkapi dengan heater, sebab ikan hias arwana memerlukan kisaran suhu stabil antara 28-29 derajat celcius. Sedangkan kebutuhan oksigen terlarut lebih dari 5ppm dipenuhi dengan memasang aerator. Agar air tetap dalam kedaan bersih akuarium juga harus dilengkapi filter.

Ikan hias arwana tergolong ikan yang sangat peka terhadap kondisi air, Perubahan kualitas air secara mendadak, dapat menyebabkan ikan arwana malas berenang, sisik menjadi terbuka, hilang nafsu makan dan tubuh menjadi lemah. Pada saat itu penyakit akan mudah menyerang. Sebaiknya kualitas air diperiksa setiap hari dan Anda perlu mengganti air sebagai alternatif uuntuk menjaga agar air tetap bersih dan terjaga kualitasnya. Penggantian air akuarium dapat dilakukan 2-3 bulan. Hal ini agar akuarium terbebas dari kuman-kuman penyakit yang menempel didinding akuarium.

Untuk pakannya Anda dapat memberikan secara rutin 2 kali sehari pada pagi dan sore hari. Jika ikan hias arwana kita berukuran dibawah 15 cm diberi pakan anak kodok, udang, ikan kecil dan ulat hongkong secara bergantian. Setiap pemberian pakan, Anda dapat memberikan 3 ekor anak kodok berukuran 3 cm, atau 5-8 ekor untuk pakan ikan kecil. Selain itu, Anda juga dapat memberikan udang dan ulat hongkong per ekor untuk satu arwana.

Ikan hias arwana yang berukuran diatas 15 cm Anda dapat memberi 5-6 ekor anak kodok yang berukuran 3-5 cm, 10-15 ekor jangkrik, ikan dan udang berukuran 7-8 cm, atau 8 ekor kelabang berukuran 10 cm. Sebelum di berikan ke ikan hias arwana Anda harus mencuci pakan tersebut hingga bersih. Adapun kodok, udang, ikan kecil sebelum diberikan kepada arwana, harus Anda tampung terlebih dahulu di dalam bak atau akuarium minimal 12 jam. Pakan tersebut dapat Anda berikan dengan cara di lempar satu persatu kedalam akuarium arwana hingga habis tersantap.

Untuk dapat memaksimalkan kemolekan ikan hias arwana memang membutuhkan kesabaran, agar arwana tersebut dapat terus tampak anggun dengan sisik berkilau dan tetap rapi disekujur tubuhnya.

Demikian artikel tentang Memaksimalkan Kemolekan Ikan Hias Arwana.


Pakan Ikan Arwana

Pakan Ikan Arwana
Pada hari yang cerah ini, saya menulis artikel baru yang berjudul Pakan Ikan Arwana. Baiklah sobat pembaca setia infoqudrat, kita langsung saja ke pembahasannya. Setiap minggu, seekor arwana perlu diberi makanan tambahan 2-3 ekor kadal yang tidak terlalu besar dan setiap dua minggu diberi tiga ekor kelabang. Kelabang atau lipan ini termasuk makanan favorit arwana, sehingga Anda harus berhati-hati saat memberinya. Jika setiap hari diberi kelabang, maka arwana akan enggan memakan jangkrik atau kodok sekalipun. Dia hanya mau makan kelabang.

Namun, seekor ikan arwana memburu kelabang di dalam air adalah sebuah atraksi menarik didalam akuarium Anda. karena kelabang mampu bergerak sangat cepat meskipun didalam air, maka arwana pun harus mempertontonkan "kemahirannya" berburu makanan. Ia akan meliuk-liuk dan terus mendesak kelabang, sampai akhirnya arwana bisa menangkap dan menelannya.

Arwana juga mau makan ikan yang masih hidup. Umumnya ikan arwana diberi ikan mas dan sepat yang masih dalam wujud anakan. namun ingat, anakan ikan tersebut dapat membawa bakteri sehingga dapat menjangkiti penyakit pada arwana. Udang mati pun disukai arwana, namun untuk pemeliharaan di akuarium, sebaiknya udang mati tidak perlu diberikan, sebab akan membuat air akuarium keruh dan sisa makanan itu akan mudah membusuk dan menimbulkan penyakit bagi arwana.

Agar mata arwana tidak juling maka Anda jangan menyebarkan makanan sekaligus kedalam akuarium. Hal ini akan membingungkan arwana dan matanya akan menatap ke segala arah. Berikan jangkrik atau kelabang satu persatu, sehingga ikan hanya akan memburu satu mangsa saja. Sebenarnya arwana juga makan kecoa, cicak, laron atau belalang, sebagai selingan jangkrik.

Demikian artikel tentang Pakan Ikan Arwana.

Tips Melatih Anak Anjing

Halo sahabat pembaca setia blog infoqudrat, mohon maaf baru kali ini saya bisa posting kembali artikel baru, sehubungan banyaknya kegiatan yang harus diselesaikan sehingga banyak menyita waktu. Oya pada kali ini saya akan menulis artikel tentang Tips Melatih Anak Anjing. Baiklah kita langsung saja ke permbahasan. Anak anjing terkadang menimbulkan masalah. Terutama pada saat awal pemeliharaan. Permasalahan yang sering ditimbulkan diantaranya yaitu buang air kecil dan buang air besar sembarangan. Nah berikut terdapat beberapa tips untuk melatih anak anjing peliharaan Anda agar dapat membuang kotoran pada tempat yang disediakan.
    Tips Melatih Anak Anjing
  • Berikan pelatihan sedini mungkin.
  • Bawalah anjing Anda pada tempat buang kotoran sesuai dengan jadwalnya.
  • Anda harus sabar, karena hingga usia 7-8 minggu, anjing belum mampu melakukan rutinitas ini dengan benar. Biasanya anjing hanya akan melakukan beberapa hari saja untuk membuang kotoran pada tempat yang telah Anda sediakan sesuai dengan jadwal. Namun setelah itu, terkadang anjing kembali pada kebiasaan semula.
  • Pada pemeliharaan 7-10 minggu pertama, kurunglah anjing Anda setiap selesai makan sampai anjing selesai membuang kotorannya. Biasakan hal ini setiap hari hingga menjadi rutinitas anjing Anda.
  • Bawa anjing Anda keluar rumah setiap 2-3 jam setiap harinya.
  • Sediakan juga tempat buang kotoran di halaman luar rumah Anda dan jangan dipindah-pindah agar kebiasaan ini tidak membingungkan anjing Anda.
  • Saat melatih, jika Anda berada ditempat anjing membuang kotoran, maka bersabarlah dan diam tanta melakukan apapun. Dengan begitu akan merasa bosan dan akan ingat tujuan mengajaknya ketempat itu, setelah selesai membuang kotorannya lakukan sentuhan memuji dengan menepuk atau mengulasnya.
  • Segeralah membawanya keluar ketika melihat anjing Anda berputar-putar seperti menggali tanah.
  • Jangan membentak atau menghukumnya jika hasil latihannya belum menunjukkan hasil, bersabarlah sampai anjing mengerti maksud Anda.
Demikian artikel tentang Tips Melatih Anak Anjing. Semoga bermanfaat.


Protesters For Dr. Angela McCaskill At Gallaudet

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Question 6 Maryland’s marriage equality initiative took center stage in front of Gallaudet University in D.C. Thursday as dozens of protesters gathered in support of Dr. Angela McCaskill, the university’s chief diversity officer.



Chanting, “You don’t need permission to sign a petition,” members of the faith community held signs and marched near the Gallaudet main gate.



The university placed McCaskill on administrative leave after it found that she signed a petition to put the Question 6 referendum on Maryland’s November ballot. If successful, Question 6 would allow gay and lesbian couples equal rights under Maryland’s civil marriage laws. But the protesters say that the underlying premise of Question 6 equality and fairness is the reason why Dr. McCaskill should be reinstated...

The Perfect Storm: Hurricane 'Frankenstorm' Sandy





WASHINGTON - The Perfect Storm: Hurricane 'Frankenstorm' Sandy - As Hurricane Sandy approaches the east coast of the United States and Canada, weather forecasters are wondering if Sandy will be worse than the 'Perfect Storm' of 1991.



According to the Washington Post, Sandy has already claimed the lives of nearly two dozen people in the Caribbean. Nine people were killed in Haiti, 11 in Cuba and 1 in Jamaica. Extensive damage due to flash flooding and mudslides was also reported. Although Sandy is currently listed as category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 80 MPH, meteorologists are warning that she may hit the northeastern coast of the United States with powerful winds and rains. CNN meteorologist Rob Marciano stated...Read more: http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/335573#ixzz2AR9uTs4B



Perfect storm 2012, which the Hurricane Sandy turns into 'Frankenstorm' deadly to hit the northeast. Here is the exclusive weather report to warn everyone! Brace yourselves for the spooky Halloween storm!




Hurricane 'Frankenstorm' Sandy to Hit the East Next Week.




Video by NewsyHub



An unusual nasty mix of a hurricane and a winter storm that forecasters are now calling 'Frankenstorm' is likely to blast most of the East Coast next week, focusing the worst of its weather mayhem around New York City and New Jersey.



Government forecasters on Thursday upped the odds of a major weather mess, now saying there's a 90 percent chance that the East will get steady gale-force winds, heavy rain, flooding and maybe snow starting Sunday and stretching past Halloween on Wednesday.




Hurricane Sandy seen from Space Frankenstorm forming Snor'eastercane.




Video by pointblankperiods



Meteorologists say it is likely to cause $1 billion in damage.



The storm is a combination of Hurricane Sandy, now in the Caribbean, an early winter storm in the West, and a blast of arctic air from the North. They're predicted to collide and park over the country's most populous coastal corridor and reach as far inland as Ohio.



The hurricane part of the storm is likely to come ashore somewhere in New Jersey on Tuesday morning, said National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecaster Jim Cisco. But this is a storm that will affect a far wider area, so people all along the East have to be wary, Cisco said.



Coastal areas from Florida to Maine will feel some effects, mostly from the hurricane part, he said, and the other parts of the storm will reach inland from North_Carolina northward.



Once the hurricane part of the storm hits, "it will get broader. It won't be as intense, but its effects will be spread over a very large area," the National Hurricane Center's chief hurricane specialist, James Franklin, said Thursday.



One of the more messy aspects of the expected storm is that it just won't leave. The worst of it should peak early Tuesday, but it will stretch into midweek, forecasters say. Weather may start clearing in the mid-Atlantic the day after Halloween and Nov. 2 in the Northeast, Cisco said.



"It's almost a weeklong, five-day, six-day event," Cisco said Thursday from NOAA's northern storm forecast center in College Park, Md. "It's going to be a widespread serious storm." With every hour, meteorologists are getting more confident that this storm is going to be bad and they're able to focus their forecasts more.

Gay Marriage Opponents Have No Plans To Pull Ad Featuring Gallaudet Official

WASHINGTON (WJZ) - Gay Marriage Opponents Have No Plans To Pull Ad Featuring Gallaudet Official.



Anti-gay campaigners using Deaf woman’s story against her will.

A suspended diversity officer at a Maryland university for the Deaf has asked anti-same-sex marriage campaigners in the state to stop using her story but they have refused.



A Deaf woman who was suspended from being a university diversity officer after signing a petition against same-sex marriage has asked opponents in her home state of Maryland to stop using her story in campaign ads, saying they misrepresent what she believes.



Gallaudet University Associate Provost for Diversity and Inclusion Dr. Angela McCaskill was suspended from her role at the university, which specializes in educating Deaf students, after a co-worker noticed she had signed the petition.



‘I have placed Dr. Angela McCaskill on paid administrative leave effective immediately,’ Gallaudet University President T. Alan Hurwitz said in a statement earlier this month.



‘Dr. McCaskill has participated in a legislative initiative that some feel is inappropriate for an individual serving as [the university's] Chief Diversity Officer.’



However McCaskill held a press conference on Friday asking for the group to stop using her image and story in the commercials - which she says misrepresents what she believes in.







‘No one has the right to decide what my signature meant,’ McCaskill told a press conference via sign language.



Gallaudet University has called for the group to stop using its copyrighted material in the campaign but the Maryland Marriage Alliance told CBS Baltimore it has no plans to change the commercial.



‘We understand exactly where we are within our rights and within the legal use of that ad. That’s not a question for us,’ Maryland Marriage Alliance spokesman Derek McCoy said...

Deaf Korean Starbucks Barista, It’s All In The Signs








SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA - Deaf Korean Starbucks barista, it’s all in the signs. Although a Starbucks branch in Seocho-dong, southern Seoul, was bustling with coffee lovers at around noon on Monday, employees worked in silence.



Most baristas at Starbucks franchises receive orders from the cashiers verbally, with shouts of machiatto, mochachino and latte echoing throughout the store.



But Hwang Jin, a 33-year-old Deaf barista, receives her orders via hand gestures. Employees give a thumbs-up to signal an Americano and make a “G” sign to confirm it’s a grande.



“When making foam with milk, those who are hearing-impaired rely on the sensation in their hand when frothing the milk instead of the sound,” barista instructor Sung Jeong-min said. “They are more sensitive to the vibrations of the milk steamer and produce a smoother taste in the coffee.”



Hwang, who lost her hearing after health complications as a 4-year-old, has worked at the Seoul National University of Education Starbucks branch since November 2011... Read more: http://koreajoongangdaily.joinsmsn.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2948981

Deaf Produced BMW Commercial Gets National Attention

Deaf Produced BMW Commercial Gets National Attention






CHATTANOOGA, TN. - A locally produced BMW of Chattanooga commercial, which features a Deaf employee and highlights the dealer's dedication to customer service is receiving national recognition.



In the advertisement, which is the fourth in a series produced by Moss Media Labs local BMW employee Scott Carpenter, who oversees the detail department at the dealership, uses sign language to express the importance of getting a BMW serviced by a BMW-certified technician.



Carpenter has been Deaf since he was 9 years old, and he conveys the message with only a smile and shoulder shrug.



“Scott exemplifies everything great about BMW of Chattanooga," Daniel Bellemare, BMW of Chattanooga’s general manager, said in a prepared statement. "He is a long-term employee who is always willing to lead the way into change. He is always a problem solver instead of a problem creator. We love Scott and are so happy he is part of our team.”



Leaders said the commercial has drawn attention from BMW USA leaders and from the National Association of the Deaf.



The association's CEO, Howard A. Rosenblum, said he encourages other employers to follow BMW of Chattanooga's example in displaying the important contributions that Deaf people bring as employees... Read more http://www.nooga.com/157908/locally-produced-bmw-commercial-gets-national-attention/

Deaf Police Officers Fight Crime

Deaf Police Officers Fight Crime



OAXACA, MX. – Deaf police officers fight crime in Oaxaca. The officers, known as ‘Angels of Silence,’ contribute to keeping the city safe with their heightened vision and ability to read lips.



The 230 surveillance cameras that monitor the streets of the historic downtown area of Oaxaca – a southeastern city that was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987 – are watched by Deaf police officers who maintain a close eye.



The Oaxaca Police’s Command and Communication Control Center (C4) was reopened in May after chronic maintenance problems had kept it closed for six years. But since the surveillance cameras do not have microphones, the authorities had been unable to determine what was being said by suspected criminals.



So officials turned to State Association for the Deaf to provide personnel with a keen sense of sight and ability to read lips, said Ignacio Villalobos Carranza, deputy secretary for Information and Institutional Development at the Public Safety Secretariat of Oaxaca.



The move has enabled the C4’s Deaf police officers to help prevent crime and assist officers on the streets to apprehend suspects, making the downtown area – a major tourism attraction – safer.



“The first advantage the [Deaf police officers] provide is that they can read lips,” Villalobos Carranza said. “The second advantage is because the Deaf police officers have developed an acute sense of sight – they can see better than most people.”...

ABC7 Exclusively Interview With Dr. Angela McCaskill





WASHINGTON - (ABC7DC) - Dr. Angela McCaskill speaks out about Gallaudet dust-up. In her first interview since controversy erupted at Gallaudet University, the school’s chief diversity officer who was placed on leave for signing a petition to put Maryland’s same-sex marriage law on the November ballot says she's not anti-gay and feels bullied.



Angela McCaskill sat down exclusively with ABC7’s Mike Conneen at her home in Upper Marlboro to respond to criticism for inking the petition.



“Signing that petition is a right that I have as a citizen of the state of Maryland. It simply means that I want to see this very sensitive issue put on the ballot as a referendum in the state of Maryland,” McCaskill said.



Her attorney, J. Wyndal Gordan, says McCaskill will not express her personal view on the matter. He says she will do that in the voting booth. Gordon says McCaskill “is considering all options, and not ruling out taking legal action,” hoping to get reinstated at Gallaudet...
