"Now we'll have to equip our department heads with guns and teach them how to shoot." Schumer, Boxer, and the other liberals won't like hearing that, at all...

Fire trucks can't get in . . . sending some equipment in Guard trucks . . .

There are lots of lists of emergency provisions, bags, kits on the FR
THREAT MATRIX thread. search for it for the link. Then ask on the thread. It may be at the beginning of some of them.

And the looters aren't going to be so eager to evacuate. Once the city has been evacuated of all that want to leave, I believe they'll be a remnant that don't want to leave. These armed looters should be SHOT.....not finally evacuted to continue their crimes outside of NO.
but I have a question about pumping out the city.
No hurry to *pump* the city now & apparently gov't can't do more that one thing (right) at a time.

I was thinking about this this morning (loss of records)...but where would one put these documents?Routine hurricane preparation includes securing important documents (including, but not limited to all insurance papers) and taking them with you during evacuation. During hurricane season, these documents are on top of my hurricane bug out bag.
Scanning them to a CD is a very good idea.

yes...that is a very good idea...I hadn't even thought of that...(how simple...how dumb not to think about doing so)
To: Peach; prairiebreeze
Peach and prairiebreeze, if you see or start a thread on emergency kits, will you please ping me. I would greatly appreciate it.
To: easonc52; Jim Robinson; John Robinson
YES! JIM AND JOHN
THANKS TONS AND TONS AND TONS for keeping this going at this crucial time.
And for restraint and wisdom dealing with the hot-headed emotions and the plain jerks.
God's peace, provision, wholeness and Grace to you and yours,
LUB = LOVE YOU BIG

All information is subject to change. Many stations are relying on their corporate parents to configure and maintain Internet streaming. Because of the intense interest in the feeds, they may be unavailable at times because of network congestion or a problem feeding the video to the streaming servers.
Most stations are concluding their broadcasts at 10:30pm CDT. WDSU and WJTV have been staying on 24 hours, so once the others sign off for the evening, those are your options.
WWL-TV New Orleans - WWL-TV is operating from studios in Baton Rouge and from what looks like their transmitter site near New Orleans. CBS has a relay during the morning and afternoon. When available, use the CBS relay first as they have greater streaming capacity. WWL will sign off at around 11:00pm CDT and resume at 5:30am CDT.
WDSU-TV New Orleans - The news staff has started to return to temporary news studios near New Orleans. However, expect evening coverage from Hearst-Argyle sister stations WAPT Jackson and WESH Orlando when the New Orleans staff needs to take a break.
WPMI-TV Mobile, AL - WPMI is webcasting from 5:30am - 10:30pm CDT. When off air, you can view pre-recorded reports on demand. This feed is often unreliable.
WKRG-TV Mobile, AL - This station is providing good coverage of the situation to the east in Mississippi and Alabama. However, the station is now signing off at around 10:30pm CDT like WWL and WPMI.
WTOK-TV Meridian, MS - This station is streaming news about Katrina for residents in eastern Mississippi and western Alabama. Like most other stations, they are now signing off at around 10:30pm CDT. No streaming is available when they are off the air.
WJTV-TV Jackson, MS - The CBS affiliate in Jackson is providing live coverage for both the Jackson area and south Mississippi (knowing a lot of media in that area is off the air).
Gulf Coast Storm Network (Clear Channel Radio) - Clear Channel offers radio listeners across the gulf coast access to a simulcast emergency radio service. This service seems primarily focused on Alabama and Mississippi, but does cover Louisiana to some degree.
WWL-AM 870 New Orleans: Although they do not stream, residents across the south should be able to receive WWL on a decent AM radio. They have resumed 50,000 watts of power after dealing with damage from Katrina and are once again putting a decent signal across the south.
WWL's coverage will be simulcasted on all of Clear Channel's, Citadel's, and other assorted New Orleans stations. The companies will be pooling resources, air personalities, and personel to keep LIVE 24 hour coverage on-going during the disaster. Unfortunately, there is no streamed access to this programming - either the affiliates don't stream or, in the case of Clear Channel, their master streaming control center is/was in New Orleans and is out of service.
