Near Hurricane Force Winds Today
2008-06-05 05:28:00
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 4Don’t forget to check my Thursday Thirteen.  I did a history of political TV commercials.  Today the wind is sustained at 45MPH.  We are having near hurricane force gusts of at least 65MPH.  My Durango is rocking back and forth in the driveway.  There are indications we’re getting a fire in Mescalero.  There’s also a nasty one in Artesia.   The worst part of this is the deadly weather that is spawned here and turns into tornados farther east. Did I mention we did not go to Las Cruces yesterday?  The appointment was changed until today.  ...
2008 Hurricane Season – Create a Disaster Plan
2008-06-05 03:10:00
In the past couple of posts, we've discussed Creating a Disaster Supply Kit and having a Pet Plan. While these are necessary to have, they really won't mean anything if you do not have a Disaster Plan in place. This is just one more item to help all remain calm during this time. Since we already have a Disaster Supply Kit and a Pet Plan, we now need to focus on when will implement these whether it is just yourself, maybe a spouse or partner, or even a family. One of the things that needs to be discussed is the types of hazards that you can come across and what you can possibly expect in terms of damage to the structure of your home. Not thinking about this is only deluding yourself. On the other hand I'm also not proposing dwelling on this as well. One thing you need to do it to determine where the safest part of your home is in case a hurricane should strike. In some instances, your home may not be safe and some other area or loca...

2008 Hurricane Season – Create a Disaster Supply Kit
2008-06-03 01:31:00
Don't wait until you hear warnings of a hurricane/tropical storm approaching. Unfortunately, too many people do and are rushing to Home Depot, Lowes, not to forget all of the grocery stores in search of supplies. You can and should be stocked up on this beforehand and in many instances the cost will be less to you because once the supplies start getting low, the prices rise. Let's first look at the necessary list of items and then we'll discuss this a little further: Water - at least 1 gal per person per day for 3 - 7 days. Food - for at least 3 - 7 days Non-perishable canned or packaged goods & juices Comfort foods - snacks Cooking utensils and fuel, such as a filled propane tank for a grill Disposable products - paper plates and plastic utensils Food for infants and the elderly Medicines/Prescription Drugs Flashlights & batteries as well as candl...

How does a hurricane affect my buying or selling a home?
2008-05-30 20:21:00
Hi all! The weather here has gotten in to the high 80's over the past couple of weeks with "abundant sunshine" as weather persons like to call it! BUT, as you may or may not know, June 1 marks the beginning of Hurricane Season (I'm from the midwest where a "season" meant we hunted for and killed it...). Well for those of us that do or have lived in areas ravaged by hurricanes, we know first hand the havoc it can cause. And when you are buying or selling a home, watching one "come this way" can be stressful. You have your house on the market to sell, and now "they" are telling you to evacuate. Or better yet, you have a contract on your house--whether you are a buyer or seller, and suddenly you find out you can't get insurance to close on your set closing date. While dealing with a hurricane is stressful in itself, you can mitigate some of it when buying or selling a home. In the state of Florida, if a named storm enters the Gulf of Mexico, all...

BMW M6 Hurricane by G-Power with 635hp
2008-05-26 08:18:00
One of the world?s fastest and most powerful convertibles is made by G-POWER. The 335-km/h G-POWER M6 HURRICANE is based on the latest BMW M6. At the heart of the high-performance convertible is a five-liter V10 engine with G-POWER BI-Kompressor system that delivers 635 hp / 467 kW. To achieve the desired increase in power output of 128 hp / 94 kW for the fast-revving engine that normally produces 507 hp / 373 kW, G-POWER has developed a high-tech supercharging system. The system uses one belt-driven ASA T1-12 compressor for each cylinder bank. Contrary to conventional mechanical chargers that waste a large portion of the additional power on being driven themselves, the ASA compressor has an efficiency rate of up to 80 percent. The ASA charger is also small, which allows G-POWER to install two of them in the tight confines of the M6 engine bay. With a maximum airstream volume of up to 1,200 kg per hour per cylinder bank the compressors are designed for an even higher power output th...

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the approaching 2008 Atlantic hurricane season is likely to be above normal, with 16 named storms and up to five major hurricanes.NOAA attributed the above-average outlook to the lingering affects of La Nina. The agency has urged residents of hurricane-prone areas to be prepared for the season, which begins on June 1 and will run until 30 November.

Carolina Hurricaneby Shannon DauphinA love off limits. A storm they can't fight. Haunted. Handsome. Alone. Following a bitter divorce, professor Jordan Eversole has thrown himself into his teaching—and into restoring the rambling old Carolina plantation house in which he lives.Independent. Lovely. Determined. At twenty-one years of age, Sweetwater College student, Amanda Whitmore, is an old soul with a capacity for insight and devotion far beyond her years.The two are about to collide.Caught together in the plantation house by a category four hurricane, Amanda and Jordan fight the winds and their growing love for one another, caught by a storm that seems destined to push them together … no matter the cost.I don't always care for May-December themes but Carolina Hurricane is heartwarming and thoroughly romantic and I enjoyed the pleasant surprise.Amanda is a big part of why I liked it so much.

Homeowners hit by Hurricane Foreclosure!
2008-05-08 16:20:00
Homeowners across the country thought that maybe 2008 will bring them some relief and maybe the government will sit up, open their eyes and do something to restore normalcy but now it seems like foreclosure is an eventuality that can?t be avoided. By the end of the first quarter of 2008, 156,463 repo homes were created as homeowners were struggling to make their monthly mortgage payment. Foreclosure activity doesn?t show any signs of a slow down, which basically means that the bubble might burst any time and the situation, might go out of hand.

Qatar and Katrina: A lesson for America?
2008-05-06 23:00:00
After the Katrina disaster, America's slow response was likened to that of a third world country. However, aid did come from unexpected parts of the world - from Qatar, formerly itself a dirt poor country, but now, on a GDP per person basis at least, far richer than America.Qatar set up the Qatar Katrina fund, which, in partnership with local organisations, has been working in the fields of health care, education and housing. One American blogger wrote:"The Children?s Hospital here, Habitat for Humanity, Tulane, Loyola and Louisiana State Universities, students seeking scholarships, the area?s homeless ? all have benefited from the oil-and-gas-borne largess of Qatar, one of the most open-handed of the donors to come to the Gulf Coast?s aid after the disastrous 2005 storm. Two other Persian Gulf nations, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, have also given."(Critical Dune)Some American bloggers, some of whom want to bomb America's only real ally in the Gulf, have argued this ...

Review: Hurricane Breeze
2008-04-13 22:10:00
Hurricane Breezeby Terry OdellCarter Worthington IV is the kind of man whose schedule is laid out in fifteen minute increments, while Tiffany Breeze wouldn't know what to do with a day planner if she owned one.Carter thinks he's happy, tucked away in a quiet Florida neighborhood, where nobody knows his alter ego is novelist Grant Gardner, and he's content to keep it that way. But when a hurricane blows Ms. Breeze into his sheltered universe, he must deal with his past, overcome his fears and decide if he's spent his life existing instead of living. Is he willing to leave the emotional safety of his orderly existence to experience the highs, knowing he'll also have to face the lows?When a character is named Carter Worthington IV, I pretty much know I'm going to meet someone with a silver spoon in his mouth and potentially a stick up his... well someone that is rather stuffy.
