I had it working pretty quickly in a VM that Russ H gave me. I needed t flash the firmware to a newer version and decided to do it from host OS.<br />
<br />
The setup required several packages to be installed via brew. Easy enough... Except there's tons of tutorials for setting up brew and almost all of them are wrong!!!<br />
This is what did work "<span style="background-color: #f0f0f0; color: #293959; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.3em; white-space: pre-wrap;">ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"</span>" .<br />
<br />
Thank you http://brew.sh/ and http://coolestguidesontheplanet.com/installing-homebrew-os-x-yosemite-10-10-package-manager-unix-apps/ for maintaining accurate tutorials. The github repository maintainers for projects that use brew to install should really consider at least linking to the setup in the help section. <span style="color: white; font-size: 1.3em; line-height: 1.6; text-align: center;">ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"</span><span style="color: white; font-size: 1.3em; line-height: 1.6; text-align: center;">ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06411940870546868257noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8562751043937849015.post-30391858512129793102014-09-16T10:57:00.002-04:002014-09-16T10:57:48.217-04:00Job?<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm;">

Good day,
I am a, staff of Private Banking Services at the Bank of China (BOC). I am contacting you concerning our customer and, an investment placed under our banks management 4 years ago.
I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail. I contacted you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you.
In 2005, the subject matter; ref: bb/boc/bank/0012 came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our Private Banking Services Department. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of 8.370 million United States Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf.
I was the officer assigned to his case; I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the Private Banking Services Department, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed. I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice, we spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over 10 million United States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments. In mid 2004, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Europe. He direc
In January last year, we got a call from the security firm informing us that the inactivity of that particular portfolio. This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit , and I could not understand why he had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate him I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of the bank of china. Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently he was dead. A person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in Canne, South of France. We were soon enough able to identify the body and cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who pa tronize our services usually pref
In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem. The investigation did not ever yield any result My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation. This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. According to practice, the firm will by the end of this financial year broadcast a request for statements of claim to BOC, failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to BOC. This will result in the money entering the BOC accounting system and the portfol
What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those who occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the general direction of what I propose. There is US$ 8,370,000.00 deposited , I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as BOC is concerned, the transaction with our deceased customer concluded when I sent the funds to the firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due process. They are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that comes forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to
My proposal; I am prepared to place you in a position to give instruction for the release of the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 50/50.
I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit. I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform the bank of the final closing of the file relating to the customer I will then officially communicate with firm and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. The alternative would be for us to have firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money from the firm. We can fine-tune this based on our interactions.
I am aware of the consequences of this proposal. I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector. I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones' way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control of my destiny. These chances won't pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a fami ly man and this is an opportunity
If you find yourself able to work with me, contact me through this same email account. If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official email account. Contact me only through through this email address. I do not want any direct link between you and me. My official lines are not secure lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality Management Policy. Please observe this instruction religiously. Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never com e easy or on a platter of gold. T
I await your response.

<br />
Its important to take a step back after a major event and assess how prepared or unprepared we were.<br />
<br />
Water - We had several 5gal and 6 gal jugs. I washed them out with chlorine, did 3 rinses and filled them with water. I left them in a bathtub in case there was a leak. Also had a katadyn hiker pro, katadyn basecamp, water purification tabs and a few off-brand filters.<br />
<br />
Also had a 60 gallon collapsible bladder that occupies a bathtub. Wouldn't use it for potable water most likely but good for flushing, washing etc.<br />
<br />
Food - More than sufficient supplies of fresh MREs<br />
<br />
Power - 1500 watt generator and 45gal of fuel would have lasted us a while if we needed it. Also had some 2Watt and 5Watt panels, regulators, large gell cell batteries, inverters etc.<br />
<br />
Fuel - We had just over 45 gallons of fuel in 3gal, 5gal and 10gal canisters. Seems overkill until you see the 2 hour wait lines in nj, all the stations out of power and out of fuel in nyc etc.<br />
<br />
Communication - Our cellphone batteries are woefully old and have a poor battery life. Many cellphone towers failing caused our cellphones to have to broadcast at more power to reach more distant towers using even more power. Need to upgrade cellphone or at least buy replacement batteries.<br />
<br />
HAM - It typically requires about 3W of power for me to hold repeater from home. As atmospheric conditions changed I needed about 30W of power to hold repeater. Definitely changed my power utilization plan. The yaesu ft8800r, ft857, ft817 and vx-8gr all worked great. I stayed in the loop listening to the local repeater and providing voice comms during volunteer shift.<br />

Since I had an electric stove at home, and I already had a lot of nice backpacking pots and cook sets I went with a biolite stove. I had one on preorder. The company showed a lot of promise but they seem to have lost momentum. They never released the home stove to the public.<br />
<br />
I was wondering what the bs solution really was. Both are based on peltiers. I picked up the powerpot and did the most obvious thing - put the powerpot on top of the biolite stove.<br />
<br />
This weekend I will be doing some tests measuring the voltage and amperage output from both devices. I will also time the time and effort it takes to charge a handfull of battery packs from monoprice.<br />

The plates have saved me thousands of $ in all the damage they prevented from random road debree as well as offroading and parking misadventures. I make sure to recommend them to any subaru owner I befriend.<br />
<br />
I have wanted a push bar and a light bar for the longest time. There are some on the market but they are very flimsy, shake, may interfere with airbag sensors and would cause more damage to my vehicle in the event I was in an accident or was assaulted by a deer again. When Paul introduced the light bar that mounts to the bumper support beam I was intrigued. All the reviews seemed great so I pulled the trigger. I requested the extra rugged option to have it be made out of thicker tubing and Paul promised I could stand and bounce on it - it won't budge.<br />
<br />

<br />
About 8 weeks after placing an order I har a fedex tracking # and a very large package showed up on my front porch.<br />
<br />
I used this <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqSfCZzEJ3A" target="_blank">video</a> from this <a href="http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1926975" target="_blank">post</a> to get a feel for hot to take off the bumper cover. The fasteners were a bit more of a pain in the but then I had hoped but after rewatching the video, staring at them for a bit and pocking at them with a small screwdriver they came out.<br />

The actual bumper itself. The bottom bumper cover supports are broken off. Probably from brushing up against the curb or from road debree that bounced off my skid plates. When I removed the bottom fasteners from the bumper cover the other part of the supports (that were still attached to the bumper cover) fell out. No big deal since the push bar is helping support the bumper cover and I plan to eventually completely eliminate the bumper cover completely.</div>

Yes I will be upgrading/replacing the horn very soon. </div>

I should have noticed this but one of the drill point markers was bent - very bent. I noticed something was wrong when I was screwing it in but didn't investigate. As a result when I drilled the holes the bottom hole on 1 side was significantly off. I could see the support hole so I drilled a new pilor hole and took out another 1" out of my bumper cover. Once the holes in the bumper cover were perfectly over the bumper support screws I took out my woes didn't end. Due to the angle of the bumper I couldn't quite fit it into all 4 holes at the same time. I had to use my trusty dremel to remove some more material on the bottom holes. I was able to very easilly thread the screws into 3 of the holes with the extension in the toolkit but had to yank a little bit to get the 4th screw to seat.<br />
<br />
The fit and finish isn't perfect but it does look pretty good. The light bar is solid and the only way it moves is with the rest of the car.<br />

<h3>
Future Improvements Suggestions</h3>
* QA on the tools and drill point indicators before sending them out. The bent drill point indicator for the bottom drill hole screwed me up a little.<br />
* Drill template that can be layed out on the bumper cover and drilled out without removing it. Yes it has its risks and people with body kits and and weird imperfections might be screwed but it'd be a neat option. Also when the pilot hole is drilled with the saw there is still plenty of time to adjust before committing and chomping out a 1" hole in the bumper cover.<br />
* Install videos! The products are great but not all of us are mechanics and subaru fanatics. The product shows up well packaged, with a primitive racing sticker, rough instructions and the hardware. Some install videos on the web site would be great, the downloadable manuals in PDF format might be nice too so we could prep while the part is made and shipped.<br />
* More options! Really wish I could have gotten legacy/outback style bumper for my impreza.<br />

When my bumper cover is eventually destroyed I don't plan to replace it, I plan to run a tubular bumper instead. I would like slightly more protection higher up, and on the sides as well as a spot to hang my fog lights that are currently inside the plastic bumper cover.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06411940870546868257noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8562751043937849015.post-15068103425907488192013-03-14T14:46:00.002-04:002013-03-14T14:46:31.573-04:00CQ CQ CQ W3PSome of you might already be familiar with <a href="http://www.maccdc.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mid Atlantic CCDC</a>.

We have not yet been told how exactly HAM radio will be used but if you are anywhere in the world (or in MD area for 2M) you can help the Red Team! We will need volunteers monitoring those frequencies and as the events develop we will likely need people to contact the Blue Teams to pass on missinformation to them. We do not yet know if this will be voice, PSK31, AX.25, Olivia or some other packet format.<br />

Just a little reminder - when power goes out the traffic lights don't work. Now is not the time to drive like an asshole. Drive with extreme vigilance. Afriends family was hit when a van tboned them going through intersection. I saw many cars rolling stop signs, not having any lights on in a rain storm, at night.</div>

I recently heard that post 1991 cars had some kind of ani-siphoning mechanism that prevents a hose from reaching the gas tank. I don't believe that to be true and a proper transfer hose should still be able to reach the gas tank. No need to puncture the gas tank.</div>

<br />
<br />
<b>Training</b><br />
We didn't train very hard. We trained sporadically. We could have and should have done more, especially with upper body strength. We were able to run 5 miles very easily without even getting winded and had even done some 7 and 8 mile runs.<br />
<br />
<b>The Day/Night Before</b><br />
A was pretty nervous and was seriously thinking about not doing the event. She was worried we didn't train enough and that it was too cold. The night before we went to Dicks and to Underarmour outlet and she picked up thermal compression leggings and a shirt. I also picked up compression pants and some Gu energy packets. My original plan was to run in compression shorts with regular shorts over them but the temperatures were going to be in the low 40s not the 60s as I hoped.<br />
The Gu was a gamble. Last time I tried them about 2 years ago they tasted like absolute crap. This time there were more flavor choices. Seeing peanut butter made me want to give it another chance.<br />
<br />
Once A got thermal leggings she seemed to feel more prepared and calmed down.<br />
<br />
I was excited!<br />
<br />
We needed carbs so we headed to pf changs. A got mongolian beef and rice, I got veggies and lo mein.<br />

<br />
<b>Morning</b><br />
We woke up at 7:15. Our heat was 11:40am. We quickly grabbed our mostly packed bags and headed out.<br />
<br />
I brought several options of clothes and figured I'd decide what I'm doing on the spot. I even had an abbreviated wet suit with me. I was thinking I might pull the top off and just have it around my waist in between water obstacles. In hind sight it wasnt such a bad plan and one I may implement next time.<br />
<br />
<b>Drive</b><br />
We stopped by Wawa. A got a bagel with cream cheese sandwich which she ate 1/2 of. I got a bagel with berry cream cheese and a mcmuffin with bacon egg and cheese. I consumed it during the 1.5 hour drive, along with 1/3 a coffee.<br />
<br />
<b>Parking</b><br />
Parking was fast and smooth. Only downside is it was $10. I changed in the car into my compression clothes/base layer and outer layer, and put on my vibram 5 fingers.<br />
<br />
Lots of people were getting pumped up in the parking lot as they shuffled past the portapotys to the busses. Bonus points for hand wash stations too.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Check-in</b><br />
The check in had a name break down. The wait was only 5 min if that. We got processed quickly, got our packets, our #s and had it written on us. We were also given our drinking bracelet after ID check. They took our signed death-waiver/limited liability releases.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Final Wardrobe</b><br />
We checked our gear, stripped off fleeces, put gear claim on our bags and checked them in.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Bag Check-in</b><br />
Check in was fast and well organized.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Festivities</b><br />
lots of vendors, sponsors, people making friends and runners that just finished shivering. I almost got a haircut from the bic people but our heat was lining up so I had to leave the line.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Starting Line!!</b><br />
You had to climb over a berlin wall just to get to the starting line! There was a photographer there to take a picture of everyone with a signed death waiver.<br />
<br />
There was a pretty good short motivational speech, reminder of the wounded warrior project, National Anthem and then we were off!<br />
<br />
The plan was simple - keep moving and don't stop no matter what.<br />

<b>Barbed Wire Obstacle - Kiss the Mud</b><br />
Standard stuff. Crawl through the nice soft squishy mud. The barbed wire was much higher off the ground than I was expecting. One guy next to me snagged a little and he got some help untangling.<br />

<b>Ice Bath</b><br />
There's icy water. There's ice trucks dumping ice into it. People jump in, and have to fully submerge to get underneath a wooden bar. There's barbed wire over the top. Marines are encouraging you to keep it moving. There's some food coloring in the water. People coming out are entering stage 1 and stage 2 hypothermia. I have vacation to go on. I skipped it this time. Next time I am going to be better prepared and will do it.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Rocks</b><br />
Its a nice run, we were jogging at a decent pace but we started to beat up our feet on the rocks. Quite a few people running next to us were asking us about how it was like to run in 5 finger shoes.<br />
<br />
<b>Berlin Walls</b><br />
The videos and photos show a lot of camaraderie. The reality of the situation was that people were only helping their own team mates. One guy asked me to film him going over. Once I handed him the camera back, he took off without helping us cross. Next time we plan to have a larger team, with tall people on it to help us cross. :(<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Hills</b><br />
Just a steep hill going down and coming back up. Few people slipped but not a bad obstacle overall.<br />
<br />
<b>Death March</b><br />
A lovely stroll up a steep rock covered hill. Based on the map I was expecting we would have to carry a log up this hill and that it would be the final obstacle.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Mudd Pitts<br />
Nice deep soft mud. The mud grabed you by the feet. The mud held on to you. The mud concealed rocks, tree roots and grabbed on to your shoes. I could see why some people lost their shoes and others had duct-taped theirs on. some people were stumbling. For the most part everyone was doing a good job of helping and catching anyone stumbling or falling.<br />
<br />
<br />
Fire Obstacle<br />
This is mostly a psychological obstacle. It looked rather imposing from the distance. As you ran up the hill you saw back smoke rising.<br />
It looked worse than it was. The Pocono fire dept had their water trucks and brush fire truck out. They were burning hay bails on either side of a rather wide path. The worst part was jsut the soot and smoke in my eyes. We ran through quickly enough that it didn't bother my breathing.<br />

The camelbak was an awesome sponsor. The drink stations were plentiful. I wish the first one was a tad closer though.<br />
<br />
We were also given sharky energy chews. We didn't like the taste. I busted out the penut butter flavored gu packet and it hi the spot.<br />
<br />
The trails were covered with empty gel packets.<br />

The portapottys were... They have seen better days. I went into one and it looked like someone opened the door and jsut took an explosive shit all over the inside. I tried another one and it wasn't much better. No it wasn't mud, there was mud and there was shit. What the hell people?<br />
<br />
<b>Drink Station 2</b><br />
By this time handwash stations disappear. There's mud, deal with it. in addition to water there's bananas cut in 1/2. I'm not a fan but I'm hungry and its a good energy food.<br />
<br />
<b>Drink Station 3</b><br />
More water, more bananas. I'm hungry at this point so I have a few more bananas.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Monkey Net/Cargo Net</b><br />
Everyone was helping each other out, Holding the net down to stretch it. We got over it quickly and I held the next for the next few people.<br />
<br />
<b>Devils Beard</b><br />
There is a cargo net stretched horizontally, low to the ground. People held it up at either end to let people pass, the people were arching their backs underneath it to let others crawl through. A lot of people were getting their race numbers and safety pins ripped off. Some of the safety pins managed to open. I got one stuck in me pretty deep. The girl holding the net next to me freaked out about how deep it was in my shin. It didnt want to come out on first try but I yanked it out on 2nd try. We kept moving.<br />
<br />

<b>20 Foot Jump</b><br />
Self explanatory. Next time, and with a wet suit.<br />

The marines were channeling gunny and fond memories of Perris Island as they alternated between yelling at people to wait and to get the hell of their obstacle.<br />

Carry your Wood<br />
There's a pile of wood that you get to pick your log from. Grab one and go for a walk. There was no hill, and it wasn't as far as I was expecting it to be. Once the loop is done you place the log back where you found it. Every time I passed a log someone had abandoned I felt better and more energized.<br />

Electric Eeel<br />
This was a mystery obstacle. If I meet who came up with it I will shake their hand and then taser them until the batteries die. Then I may pop in a fresh battery pack. Its a super shallow pool filled with water and water coloring. The wires are overhead and stretching down to just above the water. The people in front of you slow the proces down and you get shocked more times and for longer. When people next to you get shocked the water conducts it and you feel it too. I think I got shocked 10 or 12 times.<br />

<b>Under the Bridge</b><br />
The entrance to tough mudder is a nice low wooden bridge. The runners need to crawl under it. There was some barbed wire stretched across it too for extra motivation. Some people were rolling underneath it and getting dissy.<br />
<br />
<b>Half Pipe</b><br />
This was a really fun obstacle. Everyone was helping each other out, grabbing the arms of the people near the top and hoisting them up. It was fun to watch people in costumes (4 guys in wedding dresses, and several in brides maid dresses). The failed attempts were equally amusing. A and I managed to scramble up on first attempt. Thank you tot he 2 people that grabbed our arms and helped crest the top.<br />

Turned out that the guys with backpacks were doing a ruck run and were packing bricks. More power to them. Must have sucked for the people helping to hoist them up who weren't expecting all the extra weight.<br />
<br />
Submerged Pipes<br />
There were 2 culvert pipes, a gully, 4 foot gap between the pipes and it was filled with icy water and mud. The pipes were wide enough for A to crawl right through them on hands and knees. I belly crawled down, flipped over on my back and push-crawled up. Oh yeah and there was barbed wire over the gap to discourage standing up.<br />

We didn't end up throwing out our shoes. It took 3 wash cycles with garden hose and 2 washes in clothes washer to get the clothes wearable. Nothing appears to be ruined.<br />

<br />
My shift was supposed to start at the Lionville shelter 1700 Monday 10/29/2012. My plan was to leave the house no later than 1600. By the time I actually left it was 1620. I put on the flashers and wigwags and slowly started to make my way down. It was 17 miles, 30min if doing the speed limit according to the GPS. Visibility was OK. Rain was coming down pretty hard. Many vehicles on the road were traveling way too fast for the conditions. One dumbass in a minivan didn't even have ANY lights on.<br />
<br />
I got to the Lionville shelter about 8min late. It wasn't too hard to find with GPS but there could have been signs. The signs would make it easier to find for others without GPS and those unfamiliar with the area.<br />
<br />
There was already some minor flooding occurring I didn't run into any major issues except in one spot where there appeared to be a water-main or drainage brake as it crossed rt30. The water seemed to be deep. Several pickup trucks traveling down 30 stopped and were unsure what to do. They didn't want to cross despite having a much higher wheel base than me. I noticed that some of the lawns on 1 side had a decent amount of grade to them and were not yet flooded. No power lines seemed to be down, no obstructions rocks and fences. I shifted to 2nd and took a little detour. Don't think I even tore up any grass.<br />
<br />
I parked in the wrong area and walked in through the back where the animals were being kept for the people in the shelter. A sheriffs deputy was also there. He was sure he knew me from somewhere but couldn't place me. Just as well he didn't recognize I was always the guy coming by to talk to his boss and leaving a pile of guns, spare mags, handcuff keys and knives for him to supervise while I go into the secure area.<br />
<br />
The deputy took me to the communications center where red cross volunteers and CCAR was staged. KE3HG (Rich) was already there. He was getting some help troubleshooting his NBMS setup from WA3NOA (Jim).<br />
<br />
It was nice to catch up with Rich since I haven't really talked to him since the Limerick drill.<br />
<br />
Got my yaesu traveling rig with powergate setup and checked in with W3EOC that I was on station. I didn't bring a cookie sheet with me as advised for a ground plane for my antenna but I found some very convenient filing cabinets that did the job.<br />
<br />
The school had WiFi so I went online and was looking at the storm tracking maps, pictures of damage and reports. I had trouble accessing some of the sites and pictures but then realized that the school network was filtering me. Would be nice if they disabled filtering so all social and news sites could be reached during emergencies.<br />
<br />
I enjoyed a nice warm dinner and chatted with red cross volunteers and returned for the next radio check in. We realyed some questions and info back and forth between red cross and EOC. Things got pretty funny when the EOC asked us how the weather was. Not having any sensors or a weather station it got pretty humorous - "sort of windy but not TOO windy, raining sort of hard". A mobile weather station deployed locally with an APRS link might have been pretty helpful for the county EOC.<br />
<br />
Just after 10pm A called me to let me know we had lost power at home. The critical devices switched over to UPS power without incident. Two of the nice rechargeable flashlights failed right off the bat - looks like I need new powercells.<br />
<br />
Around 1am we lost power t the facility. The emergency lights came back on almost instantly. The standby genny with a heated oil pan for the diesel oil is pretty nice. We quickly found out there was a problem - the outlets which were supposed to be on backup were not live. The janitor was lucky and quickly found 1 outlet that was on backup power. Lucky because there was a guest at the shelter which needed the electricity for a life critical medical device.<br />
<br />
Rich tried to help the janitor look for more outlets on backup power. Rich then started looking through all the wiring diagrams and plans trying to make heads or tails of the situation. He checked ll the electrical panels around the facility looking for the source of the problem. I joined them in looking through the plans and diagrams and testing outlets. It is possible one of the 2 transfer switches didn't kick in but based on what we saw it is more likely there has been some improper and undocumented electrical work done that removed failover capability to many electrical outlets. The county needs to investigate this. If that facility is to be used as a backup facility there needs to be some serious electrical work done.<br />
<br />
N3MXB (Guy) arrived to relieve me just after 0500 ending my 12 hour shift. He had some trouble locating the place. The school facilities guy tried to be helpful but like many of his other efforts that evening he was more distracting than helpful.<br />
<br />
N3MXB arrived without an antenna for voice. He misunderstood and thought that the antenna being left behind was for voice - in fact only a data antenna was left behind for the next volunteer shift to use.<br />
<br />
<br />
<h4>
What Went Right</h4>
<ul>
<li>The Lionville facility had a backup generator and an oil tank that can last for about 2 days.</li>
<li>Volunteers!! Everyone stepped up and was helpful and supportive of each other. There was a good spirit of cooperation at the facility.</li>
<li>The generator kicked in almost immediately and emergency lighting in all hallways and areas came right up.</li>
<li>There was plenty of hot delicious food.</li>
<li>My goretex rain suit rocked once again.</li>
<li>Another volunteer was nice enough to leave behind a car battery charged up and connected to a power supply. When I connected it to my powergate it trickle charged as well and when power went off, the radio switched to the battery without a hickup.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<h4>
What Could be Improved</h4>
<ul>
<li>We didn't utilize APRS trackers to monitor our members or watch their progress to and from volunteer assignments If someone had been hurt and unable to self rescue/call for help that would have been a missed opportunity to help our own.</li>
<li>Steel toe rubber boots were rather hard to drive in. I couldn't tell how much pressure was being applied to gas or break pedals.</li>
<li>Information flow - we were sending info to EOC but it would be nice to get info from the briefings. The red cross and deputies kept asking us for updates and we made one-off requests.</li>
<li>The oil tank had a puncture and was leaking badly only that morning. A patch was placed but there didn't seem to be a lot of confidence in the patch by red cross.</li>
<li>When power failed the electrical outlets that were supposed to switch over to generator didn't. Only 1 outlet in the whole facility could be located that actually had backup power. Lucky for the person who needed it for their medical device.</li>
<li>Location - we were deployed at a public school, which was hosting a red cross shelter which means weapons/firearms are illegal. This leaves potential volunteers with a few choices - go unarmed and risk increased danger getting to/from assignment, not volunteer/decline assignment or go with concealed means concealed. If the situation was worse or more uncertain the additional safety that comes from ability to go armed may make a difference between volunteering and passing up volunteering.</li>
<li>The CCAR has prepacked go kits which seem ideal for this kind of deployment. Might be good to inventory, test them and have them ready for next time. First set of volunteers could grab them from gov services center, and last team to return them after stand down.</li>
<li>Communications plan - there were no phone #s in the communications plan which would have been nice to. I like to have the cellphone on but not the radio when I drive and it's important to keep a communications link. It would also have been nice to have #s of other volunteers showing up to work with us or to relieve us. Having the # of the person we are relieving would have given us a chance to get the ground truth without tying up the repeater.</li>
