Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley Friday morning signed an executive order declaring a state of emergency for all Maryland counties in advance of Hurricane Sandy, the effects of which are expected to reach the state as early as Sunday.
"As Hurricane Sandy makes its way north, I urge all Maryland residents to prepare for extreme weather," O'Malley said in a statement.
"I urge all Marylanders to review their family emergency plans, make sure their emergency supplies like batteries and water are fully stocked and to stay informed."
With the declaration comes the authority to activate the Maryland National Guard and "provide assistance to local emergency managers," according to the statement.

"But now that Hurricane Sandy is hitting the U.S. just before election season, Romney has reversed his earlier statements." "By contrast, the GOP-controlled House has proposed cutting FEMA's budget by $87 million in 2011 and by an additional $182 million in 2012. Efforts to fund disaster relief were opposed by tea party Republicans, who demanded cuts from other programs in exchange."
My point is, the state of Rhode Island took responsibility for the safety of its citizens and invested their own tax dollars in protective measures. As a result, they do not need FEMA to help them unless something unexpected happens. New York needs to do the same.
Not a word about Biden Obama or Bloomberg saying the exact same thing while bodies are still being found, no electric or gasoline or food. People dumpster diving for sustenance. Thousands homeless and more displaced. Joe Biden says,FEMA is doing “one helluva of a job.” Biden said “I think FEMA is doing an incredible job,” Biden said. “So, this is working like it’s supposed to,” Bloomberg Turns Down Offer of FEMA Assistance for NYC http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/10/27/1151343/-Bloomberg-Turns-Down-Offer-of-FEMA-Assistance-for-NYC This is Obama's very own "Mission Accomplished" affair. And some here had the gall to declare this event "over".
So - what about it?
“It’s been very good working with the President. He and his Administration have been coördinating with us. It’s been wonderful.” Maybe the tune will change later, but right now it probably was the final nail in the Romney coffin campaign. http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/johncassidy/2012/10/romney-has-a-christie-problem-and-a-fema-problem.html#ixzz2BAm5h9mO

Much experimental evidence of non-thermal influences of microwave radiation on living systems has been published in the scientific literature during the last 30 years – relating both to in vitro and in vivo studies – and were reviewed just recently by the STOA commission of the European Parliament (STOA 2001). From the use of microwave wireless technologies e.g. the following non-thermal biological effects have been reported: !" Changes in the electrical activity in the human brain, !" Increase in DNA single and double strand breaks from HF exposure to 2.45 GHz, !" Increased lymphoma rates (2 fold) in transgenic mice exposed twice a day exposed to 30 minutes of cell phone (GSM) signals over 18 month, !" Increased permeability of the blood-brain barrier in rats, !" Observation of an increase in resting blood pressure during exposure, !" Increased permeability of the erythrocyte membrane, !" Effects on brain electrochemistry (calcium efflux), !" Increase of chromosome aberrations and micronuclei in human blood lymphocytes, !" Synergistic effects with cancer promoting and certain psychoactive drugs, !" Depression of chicken immune systems, !" Increase in chicken embryo mortality, !" Effects on brain dopamine/opiate electrochemistry, !" Increases in DNA single and double strand breaks in rat brain, !" Stressful effects in healthy and tumor bearing mice, !" Neurogenetic effects and micronuclei formation in peritoneal macrophage.
Perhaps a way to manipulate the DNA pool
This works with the cellphone issue but with Smartmeters, the health issue impacts even those who opt opt. In places like apartment complexes it effects folks who did not make the decision either way. Families who live on the end of townhouses get all the meters along their bedroom wall but it was not for lack of education.... If you live in the basement with a wall of Smartmeters facing your bedroom it is simply because of the location of your home, not your thoughtfulness or increased reasoning.. yikes...
http://marylandsmartmeterawareness.org/opt-out-news/option-to-defer-smart-meters/ Fyi, the psc sent me a letter back when i opted out that there were no studies done on Smartmeters health impacts except a small short term utlity funded company study and that there were no plans for more research. sigh... Surely public health is more important than this! a Class 2 b carcinogen on your wall. only because research is in its infancy! more is on its way.. i imagine if the IARC had come out with its opinion before they started manufacting these devices the companies would have stopped but in 2011 they were in deep. They will defend it to no end now. Just as they have for EMFs from high voltage lines. Want to read some depressing stuff read about that!
as usual.
Childhood Cancer 2012 Conference presentation on EMF and Childhood Cancer. So depressing.
Education is our only defense. The brain shows changes with the absorption of this radiation. Not much more is needed to convince me to take precautions.
