NEW YORK: Why some have gas, some don't

The NBC show "Revolution" seems a bit more believable to many residents of the Northeastern USA. Some areas of the storm ravaged region are getting fuel from military distribution centers while others are zipping in and out of the nearest gas station with full tanks after paying the cheapest prices of the year. It appears that regional fuel supplies and pipelines are directly impacted by the electrical grid. Without electricity gas stays on the truck, in the pipelines and the pumps don't work.
Without power nothing is as simple as internet forum posters would have you believe......

Free gas in New York City.
NEW YORK: Electrical outages caused by Hurricane Sandy explains why some have gas, some don't. 

Why do some areas struck by Superstorm Sandy have plenty of gasoline and others still don't?

American Zombie Invasion or Military Take Over?

CIC Zombie Response Brigade
Called "Zombie Apocalypse," the exercise follows the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's campaign launched last year that urged Americans to get ready for a zombie apocalypse, as part of a catchy, public health message about the importance of emergency preparedness.

Defense analyst Loren Thompson agrees. "The defining characteristics of zombies are that they're unpredictable and resilient. That may be a good way to prepare for what the Pentagon calls asymmetric warfare," Thompson said.

San Diego-based Halo Corp. founded by former military special ops and intelligence personnel has been hosting the annual counterterrorism summit since 2006. The five-day Halo counterterrorism summit is an approved training event by the Homeland Security Grant Program and the Urban Areas Security Initiative, which provide funds to pay for the coursework on everything from the battleground tactics to combat wounds to cybersecurity.
