Earthquakes and Bombs: Ways of Seeing: Stand Back from the Forrest in the Case of a Region Comprised of Areas of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Surrounding, Might be a Disaster Area for the Rest of April 2013; Boston Marathon Bombs Bring Up the Subject of Not Losing 'Eyes on the Ball' of Other Crimes

A question that puts the claim of the region of the 5 give or take a few earthquakes that occurred in Oklahoma this morning might converge with the Van Buren County tornado that struck last week, is: were the earthquakes and Van Buren County close enough together to consider the total geographic region a disaster zone?
Location of earthquake epicenter: 7 miles east of Luther, Oklahoma.

It is about 300 miles from Botkinburg, Arkansas to Luther, Oklahoma.

How long before these severe weather conditions blow over?

Is there a generality that Oklahoma, Arkansas, and surrounding region, including regions in Alabama, Mississippi, and Missouri, need to be prepared for both types of events, earthquakes and tornadoes, and might as well include hurricanes, over the next few weeks?

Do some folks that live in houses that are not very stable in terms of their construction, and, or, are way out in rural areas, if they have not already, might have increased safety if they were to collect their needed belongings, and head to a region not as turbulent for a couple of weeks?

Are there temporary emergency bunkers built in those regions in case earthquakes/tornadoes/hurricanes hit again in the next few days?

Tornado conditions additionally affected Mississippi, Missouri, and Alabama last week, causing damage.

On the Boston Marathon tragedy yesterday.
It is wonderful that there is an outpouring of emotional support, YouTube postings, etc.; at the same time, the rates of abducted/ kidnapped/ abused children, averaged even on a daily basis is startling; no matter what happens, it is important that this aspect of safety be maintained.

Prepare for Meteor Shower Season Just Like Tornado or Flood Season

It might be a time to get ready for meteor shower 'season'.

Protection from meteors and phenomenon of that ilk, is not just in the areas of people getting struck by pieces and particles, such as the result of disintegration or fragmentation of the meteor, but additionally in the areas of force fields and other disruptive qualities as it pertains to the astrological object or objects, and the targets could also include buildings or important structures such as sources of energy and communication.

STRONG Recommendations in the Storm Sandy Aftermath: Solar on Street Lamps, and Uninterrupted Power Supply for Offices

Not to place anything above the loss of life, as there is a blog posting just previous to this one

Not to capitalize on loss of life, such as for monetary earnings

It is IMPORTANT
in the prevention of further loss of life,
and that there stands the possibility that some people that died could have been rescued, if:

The street lamps that lost lighting power due the storm, could still shine some light

A recommendation has been placed in ETIS International blogs before, to place some kind of solar panel mechanism attached to street lamps, at least in some places, so that

EMERGENCY CREWS CAN SEE WHERE THEY ARE GOING AT NIGHT.

VALUABLE TIME TO SAVE LIVES OCCURS AT NIGHT JUST LIKE THE DAY.

Unlit street lamps because a storm came through is a thing of the past, in the age of antiquity.

Uninterrupted Power Supply, also known as/ abbreviated UPS
of course can be used in offices which can be used for communicating and coordinating emergency efforts and management.  If the offices have no power, then how can they be used to make needed emergency calls.

You spot a stranded person in a flood from your office while looking out the window from your high rise office, condo, or apartment, and your cellular phone is not getting any signal; you can e-mail someone, or call using a phone attached to your computer, but you can't do that because your power is lost due to the storm...

It does not have to be.  UPS systems can keep power supply running for hours, just like a generator.  Make those valuable calls.  The next time a severe tide of weather hits, if there is a next time, instead of 39 lost, how about some other number, lower.

Well over 5 million power outages on the East Coast alone blamed on the storm named Sandy.  That could be turned around, and 5 million assisting with the assistance effort.

You can get UPS systems through ETISworld.com or ETISmart.com

Hurricane Sandy Takes Tolls. New York and New Jersey Hit Hard by Hurricane Sandy ||:New News About the Two News|

39 people are reported dead in the continental U.S. as result of Hurricane Sandy.

There are areas of New Jersey that are still not able to be identified as to what exactly the extent of the damage is, and possibly other human injuries.  2.5 million power outages [for New Jersey per CBSnews.com today].

Same source also says 2.3 million power outages in New York, and 1.2 million power outages in Pennsylvania.

Equipment for locating trapped people in storm water inundated [flooded] areas, that are high tech and effective, might help, if help is needed.

In the Caribbean, almost 70 people are reported to have died as resultant of hurricane Sandy.

Sandy? A Hurricane Named Sandy Arriving at this Time of Year?

Not to invoke any further this hurricane they call Sandy arriving, but Sandy is not really a name befitting for a weather condition that has destructive effects this time of year

As millions are over in Mecca on Hajj

The Mid-Atlantic region in the area around Washington D.C. is concerned about a boomerang-shaped weather pattern moving from south to north rumored to have the prospect of materializing into a severe hurricane

Look to the good side of things, as the name is not befitting, the nature of the name is not befitting, so to will the storm not hit us

Not working today, therefore am not, but am putting the information out

Let us all be the best, and hope for the best

Adapt Basic Residential/House Infrastructure for Wildfires, Hurricanes, High Winds, and Flooding. A Primer

Before this day is out
Just coming off the day after Labor Day

We can continue to rely on insurance companies for billions of dollars worth of payouts, every time a major weather catastrophe sweeps through
or,
we can adapt, just like all the other regions of the world

When the monsoon rains come through, the residents there did not wait until the day after the rains to figure out to build their houses on stilts

The spacesuits that our astronauts wear; do they wait until they accidentally get jolted by some high-energy beam that went awry, or, are they wearing gear at top of the line technology?

Instead of rebuilding houses with walls so thin that the house can be knocked down by a baseball that was hit after being swung at, let us consider a quality, the highest quality might be hard due to the quantity and number of houses involved, of housing structure materials, and architecture planning that is ready to withstand the 2 major weather weather conditions the USA has been suffering from over the last decade.

Wildfires and hurricanes

Technology exists, that houses can be made strong enough, and sealant proof enough, to withstand being underwater in high flooding for a while.  We built boats, yachts, submarines, and many others, why not a basic house that can withstand the same?  

After orders to evacuate, a houseowner, in the houses of the future, the not too distant at all future, should be able to return to their houses after the waters subsided, and the house and all its content on the inside is still in good shape.

Some of the houses and museums that when exposed to wildfire, do not necessarily have to go up in smoke as if they were paper houses on a display for color tissue paper display.  The basic structure can still be standing, and protect most of the content on the inside.  Perhaps repairs can be made in the aftermath, such a new paint job.  Nothing is going to bring back all that was there of a museum over 100 years old.

This blog post project is just to bring up the subject, and obviously does not have much detail; time is important, and the priority level of this concern is near the forefront; the blog post is intended to be continued over the next few days; either as additions to this one, or in additional blog posts.
