National news does not even talk about the problems there anymore. I saw a statement from FEMA stating they are wrapping up. The coverage of this event has been tamped down from day one.
WASHINGTON (CNN) —
Hoping to find a solution for New York and New Jersey residents displaced by Superstorm Sandy, the federal government announced Thursday it was looking into the possibility of housing residents on boats.
In a request for information notice posted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, officials said they were looking for input from the maritime industry in the hopes of finding rapid and cost-effective housing options on small boats or similar vessels.
FEMA said the purpose of the request was for market research only and to explore whether the maritime industry could offer viable options for residents who remain homeless.
Officials said the vessels they requested ideally would sleep two to six adults and could be standalone boats or interconnected to create a single dwelling made of multiple units.
As of Wednesday, 473,785 households in New York and New Jersey had applied for disaster relief assistance with FEMA. While not all of the families were requesting housing assistance, officials said they continue to work with state and local officials to help all victims of the deadly storm.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said the latest estimates of Sandy-related storm costs in his state were $36.8 billion.
Based on land and aerial assessments, more than 30,000 businesses and homes were destroyed or experienced structural damage, while 42,000 homes were affected in some other way, New Jersey officials said.
Earlier this week, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo told reporters the total cost in his state was $41 billion.
The request for information specifically said the agency isn't looking for cruise ships as a solution to the crisis caused by the colossal storm that pounded the Northeast last month.
FEMA faced criticism from residents and politicians for its decision to house first responders and emergency personnel on cruise ships docked in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

'Bigfoot' DNA Sequenced In Upcoming Genetics Study
Five-Year Genome Study At DNA Diagnostics Yields Evidence of Homo sapiens/Unknown Hominin Hybrid Species in North America
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) November 24, 2012
A team of scientists can verify that their 5-year long DNA study, currently under peer-review, confirms the existence of a novel hominin hybrid species, commonly called “Bigfoot” or “Sasquatch,” living in North America. Researchers’ extensive DNA sequencing suggests that the legendary Sasquatch is a human relative that arose approximately 15,000 years ago as a hybrid cross of modern Homo sapiens with an unknown primate species.
The study was conducted by a team of experts in genetics, forensics, imaging and pathology, led by Dr. Melba S. Ketchum of Nacogdoches, TX. In response to recent interest in the study, Dr. Ketchum can confirm that her team has sequenced 3 complete Sasquatch nuclear genomes and determined the species is a human hybrid:
“Our study has sequenced 20 whole mitochondrial genomes and utilized next generation sequencing to obtain 3 whole nuclear genomes from purported Sasquatch samples. The genome sequencing shows that Sasquatch mtDNA is identical to modern Homo sapiens, but Sasquatch nuDNA is a novel, unknown hominin related to Homo sapiens and other primate species. Our data indicate that the North American Sasquatch is a hybrid species, the result of males of an unknown hominin species crossing with female Homo sapiens.
Hominins are members of the taxonomic grouping Hominini, which includes all members of the genus Homo. Genetic testing has already ruled out Homo neanderthalis and the Denisova hominin as contributors to Sasquatch mtDNA or nuDNA. “The male progenitor that contributed the unknown sequence to this hybrid is unique as its DNA is more distantly removed from humans than other recently discovered hominins like the Denisovan individual,” explains Ketchum.
“Sasquatch nuclear DNA is incredibly novel and not at all what we had expected. While it has human nuclear DNA within its genome, there are also distinctly non-human, non-archaic hominin, and non-ape sequences. We describe it as a mosaic of human and novel non-human sequence. Further study is needed and is ongoing to better characterize and understand Sasquatch nuclear DNA.”
Ketchum is a veterinarian whose professional experience includes 27 years of research in genetics, including forensics. Early in her career she also practiced veterinary medicine, and she has previously been published as a participant in mapping the equine genome. She began testing the DNA of purported Sasquatch hair samples 5 years ago.
Ketchum calls on public officials and law enforcement to immediately recognize the Sasquatch as an indigenous people:
“Genetically, the Sasquatch are a human hybrid with unambiguously modern human maternal ancestry. Government at all levels must recognize them as an indigenous people and immediately protect their human and Constitutional rights against those who would see in their physical and cultural differences a ‘license’ to hunt, trap, or kill them.”
Full details of the study will be presented in the near future when the study manuscript publishes.

I had a selective cut done a few years ago and in some areas they are as tall as you state. Would make a good barrier to limit access to an area would need a machete with you, or suffer. differently no way anyone is going to be able to run through it.
I have a UV light in my furnace for just that purpose.
standard LED's Off the self at Home Depot for normal lighting emit no UV. I'm sure there are some specialty ones that would work, as someone stated it depends on the light spectrum they were designed for.
Standard LED's do not emit UV, so i doubt they will work. That is there advantage in household lighting. As a note they are more sensitive to power issues.
yep, I don't get it. Maybe there is fraud on some massive new scale, even if true I doubt it would change anything. My father in-law is retired from GM. I have spent years trying to show him the truth. Found out the other day, he was still waiting for his email from the union on how to vote. I swear he would be run over by a train if they told him to stand on the tracks. So many zombies out there. He is debating knee replacement, and planning for Jan. I hate to say it but I almost hope they say, sorry too old, take a pain pill.
want votes, looks like we will have to buy them like Obama did. tax payer give away for energy, phones, union ownership of GM (this will fail again) free collage,,,,,,,. Too many now have no ethics.

What the hell is "Common Sense Preparedness Disaster Response Team" ?
As a side note: Propane keeps almost indefinitely in a tightly closed tank.
some info to compare, I was curious.
1 pound propane = 21,500 BTU
1 gallon gasoline = 125,000 BTU
1 cubic foot of Nat Gas = 1,050 BTU
1 cubic foot of propane = 2,500 BTU
this is from the spec's
Fuel tank capacity: 7 US gallons.
Run time @ 50% load: 12 hours on full gasoline tank. 9 hours on 20 lb. LPG tank.
NG consumption: 130,000 BTU/hour
A "pig" is the big 650 pound propane tank or large that is normally used to run a household stove and furnace. I need to do some research on use one. I think the pressure is higher than the 20-75 pound tanks you can buy at a farm supply store or other. If the pressure is higher, not a big deal just need a regulator to get the pressure down to a usable level.
The Winco/honda is $1700.00 plus for about the same thing. Running off nat. or propane engines burn very clean.
Comes with the wheel kit, many do not. I'm going to leave it off, harder for someone to take it. after they manage to cut through my cable down.
Hose kit for propane cylinders is sold separately, they have it for $79.00 Its has the fitting on the end to attach to the gen about 3' of hose and a regulator with tank adapter connector. I have not fired it up yet, been busy. Probably will fire it up sometime this week on gas and propane. I'm gathering the stuff needed to run it off nat. gas. This is be my primary with gas backup if needed. If I have to bug out I've got a propane pig there.
easy to connect propane or nat gas, just flip a lever once connected. Home Depot is carrying this one too, but $100.00 more, I think they just order them from these guys.

California cancels pact with firm co-owned by senator's spouse
The husband of state Sen. Mimi Walters is an owner of Drug Consultants Inc., which has contracts to provide medical workers for California's prisons.
By Patrick McGreevy, Los Angeles Times
November 1, 2012
SACRAMENTO — The state prison agency has canceled a contract with a firm co-owned by a state senator's husband.
The decision follows a report by The Times in June that at least a dozen subcontractors — including dentists and pharmacists — said they were owed $120,000 in back payments from two firms co-owned by David Walters. Walters, husband of state Sen. Mimi Walters (R-Laguna Niguel), is an owner of Drug Consultants Inc., a firm that has contracts with the state to provide medical workers for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
The healthcare office of that department said in a letter Wednesday to Drug Consultants Inc. executives that it "has received multiple reports that DCI has failed to pay non-disputed claims to registry nursing personnel utilized by DCI to perform services at California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation."
The problem is "interfering with the delivery of services," said the letter from Renee Carroll, manager of the contract management section for the medical agency overseeing the prisons.
Walters and her husband could not be reached for comment Wednesday. The senator reported in her most recent economic interest disclosure, for 2011, that DCI is a wholly owned subsidiary of Monarch Staffing Inc., in which David Walters has a 40% interest. DCI had revenue of at least $950,000 last year from 19 state prisons, she reported.

There has been no posts by Senator Mimi Walters for over 30 days on her Facebook page. When a politician's lips stop moving there is normally a reason for it.
Wouldn't that alone single you out.

Frequently Asked Questions about ASTM's Certification and Supplier's Declaration of Conformity Programs
What certification services does ASTM offer?
ASTM offers certification programs for products (including materials, products, systems and services) and personnel as well as personnel certificate programs. The offering of certification programs as a part of ASTM's portfolio of services is similar to our successful proficiency testing and training programs.
ASTM will not be developing certification programs for an individual organization but will be developing industry wide certification programs. As programs are developed, they are posted on the ASTM website at www.astm.org/certification.
What is the ASTM Suppliers Declaration of Conformance Program to ASTM Test Methods?
The Program is sponsored and administered by ASTM International and is available to any manufacturer, distributor, or private brand owner, whether domestic or international. The Program authorizes a supplier who is having their product tested to an ASTM standard test method to register information with ASTM including: general company/product information; ASTM test method identification; sample selection procedures; general testing laboratory information; testing laboratory accreditation/capabilities; testing laboratory test report(s) and data; and attestation that all required information is accurate. Upon acceptance by ASTM, the supplier will receive a notice of registration, identification number and ability to request that registered documentation be delivered by ASTM to another organization or themselves. Please visit the website: www.astm.org/suppliers.
Does ASTM provide testing services?
ASTM does not have any testing facilities to accommodate requests for one-off testing of products. An organization which desires to have their product tested for conformance to an ASTM standard could do the required testing in their own laboratory or contract the services of an independent third party laboratory. The Lab Directory and the Organizations that Accredit Laboratories to ISO 17025 on the ASTM website may be helpful. Note: ASTM has not attempted to investigate, rate, endorse, approve or certify any laboratory listed in the directory. Each laboratory has paid ASTM a fee for their listing.
Can an organization indicate that their product conforms to an ASTM standard?
The Society, in general, does not object if an organization does their own testing/verification and represents that their product meets an ASTM standard by referencing the specific designation (e.g. complies or meets ASTM A XXX-YY) (and, where possible, the title of the relevant standard). The ASTM Suppliers Declaration of Conformity to ASTM Test Methods Program provides suppliers with the ability to have their test method documentation registered and accepted by an independent third party, ASTM. In these instances, Society logos shall not appear in connection with such representations. The Society does not approve, certify or test products to ASTM standards unless there is a specific ASTM certification program.
Does ASTM certify laboratories?
No, ASTM is not involved with laboratory certification or accreditation.
http://www.astm.org/CERTIFICATION/cert_faq.html
Now, if they have the goods like they say, how long does it take to do 3rd party testing and get the results to ASTM? WTWO should have stated this in the PR.
Never said that, it would apear you are trying to convince people there is a major short here.
Again 1 day to cover, where are the shares coming from? You seem to be avoiding that.
People have been claiming short squeeze with WTWO through two R/S or more. Days to cover = 1, they are getting shares somewhere, so who would have the shares to give them?
The symbol, PIHN, no longer is classified as OTC Pink Limited. As of Wed, Jul 25, 2012, PIHN resides in the OTC Pink Current tier. You may find a complete list of tier changes at otcmarkets.com.
Post a chart showing the Acum and Money flow for WTWO, how about one for last 5 and 10 and 1 month.
yes it's a conspiracy, I'm glad you finally caught on. We talk in secret, and post in a way to rob you of your stock,, Come on! I've been watching the events fold out over the last week or so. Nothing new about the time of day I post, just saw someone following the same thing I was looking into.
Looks like they pumped it to reach a high last week. The price must be based on high X 100. Some key words from the PR "offer" "up to" Nothing sounds like a done deal. Proof of this transaction including terms would go a long way towards proving WTWO's future.
If WTWO does not preform, the conversion to commons and the rate of the sell will take this down very quickly, or prevent it from raising at any decent rate.
