Dealing With Medical Emergencies
The prepper can take many lessons for the situation that developed in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. One lesson is that when the social order breaks down for a period of days or weeks, adequate medical care will disappear.
Intensive Vegetable Gardening In Small Spaces
Are you interested in gardening, but you have limited space? Don’t despair; get creative. With imagination and determination, you can find ways to grow vegetables even in the smallest of spaces.
Exploiting A Tragedy To Take Your Rights
I think the shootings that happened in Aurora, Colo., were tragic. It is always inexcusable to take the lives of innocent people. What’s also inexcusable is to use those lost lives for political gain, which is what we’re probably going to see over the next few weeks.
Use Old Tires, Culverts To Grow Vegetables
Using old tires and culverts is a great way to recycle. It is a way to have a raised bed garden in a small space. Tires can be put anywhere that there is an empty space in your yard or flower bed.
How Easy Is It To Begin Living Off The Grid?
I would have to say the most intriguing thing I have had the pleasure of learning is how easy it could be to live off the grid.

Let’s face the facts: When you pack your bug-out bag, you don’t want to be bogged down with multiple items when one will do the trick. One of the most valuable and variable tools that you can use in the wild is the survival knife.
Emergency Meals When The Power Goes Out
What would we do if the power went out for a week or two? We would not be able to get gas because the pumps run on electricity. The grocery stores would not be able to sell products because the computers wouldn’t work. We would all be greatly inconvenienced.
Preparing A Bug-Out Bag For Kids
I think that it’s so easy to overlook the needs of children in potential crisis situations. We focus so much on what we adults need in our bug-out bags for us, but we overlook the obvious things like what our children could use in an emergency.
What To Do When There Is No Doctor
Someday, you may find yourself without the ability to get medical care. Perhaps a life-or-death situation comes up. Prepare for this type of situation in advance by getting much-needed medical supplies and information as well as honing related skills.
