DAY 13 HURRICANE SANDY UPDATE

KING JESUS IS COMING FOR US ANY TIME NOW. THE RAPTURE. BE PREPARED TO GO.

STORMS HURRICANES-TORNADOES

LUKE 21:25-26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;(MASS CONFUSION) the sea and the waves roaring;(FIERCE WINDS)
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.(FROM QUAKES,NUKES ETC)

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

MATTHEW 16:1-4
1 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2  He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3  And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
4  A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.

DAY 13 HURRICANE SANDY UPDATES-HAPPENINGS 

Homeowners return to storm devastation on N.J. island

(Reuters) - Homeowners return to an 18-mile (30-km) barrier island off New Jersey's Atlantic coast on Saturday, giving some of them their first view of the devastation wrought by Superstorm Sandy.Long Beach Island, an enclave of mostly affluent vacation homes, took a direct hit from Sandy, with some homes washed full of sand and seawater and others completely destroyed.The island, with some 10,000 year-round residents and perhaps 10 times that number in the summer, has been closed to residents except for brief visits to retrieve belongings.Sandy smashed into the U.S. East Coast on October 29, killing at least 120 people and causing an estimated $50 billion in damage or economic losses. It destroyed homes along the New Jersey Shore and around New York City, cut off electricity for millions of people and knocked out much of the public transportation system.Days later, protesters were demonstrating in the streets because they were still without power, gasoline rationing was in effect, and commuters struggled all week to get in and out of New York City.Authorities warned that for coastal communities where thousands of homes were washed away, flooded, or burned to the ground, full recovery would take a long time."This is not going to be a short journey," New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said at a news conference on Friday.And New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, who toured the Jersey Shore on Friday, said that many popular vacation spots will not be fully rebuilt by next summer. "This is our Katrina," he declared, referring to the hurricane that washed out New Orleans in 2005.As homeowners were to return to Long Beach Island on Saturday, an emergency website operated by towns on the island warned that some areas were still without sewer, water and electric service and the entire island is without gas. (http://lbieoc.org)One community, Holgate, on the island's southern tip, would remain closed because it was still too dangerous to enter.
SECOND DAY OF RATIONING
New Yorkers faced their second day of gasoline rationing on Saturday. Under the system, which was introduced in New Jersey last week, cars with odd- and even-numbered license plates can fill up only on alternate days.Some 28 percent of gas stations in the New York metropolitan area did not have fuel available for sale on Friday, the same level as on Thursday, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said.On Friday, protesters took to the streets in Oceanside, a community on Long Island, to protest that they were still without power. "Where is LIPA? Where is LIPA?" they chanted. LIPA is the Long Island Power Authority, a state-owned utility.Some 434,000 homes and businesses in the Northeast lacked power as of Friday afternoon, down from 696,000 the previous day, the Energy Department said.Mayor Michael Bloomberg said New York City would work with federal authorities to provide electricians, plumbers and carpenters to help fix the worst-hit homes. He said he hoped to get people back into their homes by the end of the year.(Additional reporting by Ernest Scheyder, Dan Trotta, Jonathan Leff and Jeanine Prezioso; editing by Philip Barbara) 

Displaced New York legal groups struggle to offer storm relief

NEW YORK (Reuters) - As thousands of New Yorkers struggle to recover from Superstorm Sandy, three major legal aid providers seeking to help victims have been hampered by their own storm-related damage.
Legal Services NYC, the New York Legal Assistance Group and the Legal Aid Society were shut out of their downtown offices when Sandy struck last week and have been operating out of satellite offices or space borrowed from other non-profit groups and large law firms.The organizations provide a variety of civil legal services to low-income residents, ranging from obtaining orders of protection for domestic violence victims to drafting living wills and appointing healthcare proxies.Legal Services lost power at two of its downtown locations, including the central office on Worth Street, where its telephone network and email and data servers are located.The approximately 75 staff members affected by the outage were able to relocate to Legal Service's Harlem location, travel to outreach clinics and assemble disaster relief manuals for volunteer attorneys.But the entire organization was without access to phone, email or electronic records for three days, said Raun Rasmussen, Legal Services' executive director. Those challenges were compounded by limited transportation and access to documents, which made it difficult to coordinate court appearances and contact some clients, Rasmussen said.The headquarters of New York Legal Assistance Group, at 7 Hanover Square, were flooded in the storm and will be closed for about six weeks, according to the group's president and attorney-in-charge, Yishoel Schulman.The organization's 200 lawyers have scattered to spaces in 11 law firms across the city, and the executive staff is using the United Jewish Appeal Federation offices as a base, Schulman said.
DIFFICULTIES PERSIST
NYLAG lawyers and paralegals have been offering legal services via a citywide hotline and through Federal Emergency Management Agency centers around the city, said Schulman, who estimates his employees have counseled over 1,000 people since Sandy hit."I don't think in my career I've ever experienced such an intense, immediate need for free legal assistance," he said.Yet communications difficulties persist. Without phones and Internet, the organization has found it difficult to publicize its services, including its Mobile Legal Help Center, a van equipped with private meeting spaces that travels the five boroughs, Schulman said.
Legal Aid has faced similar challenges. The organization, part of a nationwide network, had to redeploy a third of its 1,700 lawyers after its downtown headquarters were flooded and three additional lower Manhattan offices lost power, said Attorney-in-Chief Steven Banks.The group continues to have intermittent phone and Internet access, Banks said, and employees are working out of Legal Aid's other 21 offices in the city.Since Wednesday of last week, the organization has been representing clients in courts in all five boroughs, Banks said. Its staff has traveled to New York City Housing Authority developments in Far Rockaway in Queens, Coney Island and Red Hook in Brooklyn and to various neighborhoods in Staten Island.The staff has handled applications for emergency food stamps, disaster unemployment assistance and FEMA aid, in addition to helping residents who needed food, hot water and electricity. Legal Aid also has a van that it has been trying to take to hard-hit neighborhoods to offer legal services, but the service was temporarily suspended because of the gasoline shortage.(Reporting by Peter Rudegeair; additional reporting by Joseph Ax; editing by Eileen Daspin and Jim Marshall)
