What is Ebola and Why Should We Care?

What is Ebola and Why Should We Care?

 



I am not sure why when I first saw the story about Ebola a couple of weeks ago it bothered me , but it did and for some reason I really think that we are not hearing the whole story. I just read also that they have shut Liberia's borders. ? That is scary! I really am watching this story. Especially with all of the illegal aliens coming into America. This could get bad fast! They are already bringing in TB and other things.

The Fiscal Cliff Cookbook - Eat Reasonably Well During The Apocalypse - With Social Commentary Cliff Notes

The Fiscal Cliff Cookbook - Eat Reasonably Well During The Apocalypse - With Social Commentary Cliff Notes was a free kindle book when this post was written.

Political satire, humor, essay, and cookbook. The Fiscal Cliff Cookbook is the world's greatest FISCAL CLIFF SOUVENIR and fusion cookbook of political satire and recipes. LIMITED TIME ONLY, just like the fiscal cliff itself?

Fiscal cliff this, budget deal that. We all could use a reasonably good meal and a few laughs.

(excerpt from The Fiscal Cliff Cookbook by Stephen R. Winter)

Catastrophic Default Pork And Beans

(If the future does not fare well, this recipe may in time become Catastrophic Default Beans.)

Pork and beans are a classic American dish. I picture hobos enjoying the fresh air while opening a can of pork and beans as their legs hang off a freight train box car.

Well that is a more pleasant thought than catastrophic anything else.

The numbers and adjectives being spoken by the faces on television are significant. Yet they are being repeated until we are all numb.
If this was a hurricane en route, people in the subject area would be implored to evacuate. But this is a moneycane, and this is home.

When we are blank in response to the word catastrophic; when we are unmoved by the officialized threat of the worst that all but the oldest among us have lived; when every night we look at our beautiful flat high definition television sets, and are told in beautiful, flat, high definition, that financial hell is coming, and none of us will find out how true that is until we are standing in it; when we are hammered with very real crap like this, every day, AS WE ARE, and then go to sleep as if it was all just a television show, then the question ought be asked, “what time would you like to be woken up?”

Oh, yeah, here’s a recipe for Catastrophic Default Pork And Beans.

Catastrophic Default Pork And Beans

Ingredients:

1. Boneless whole pork loin roast, approximately 3 pounds.
2. Canned pork and beans, approximately 45 ounces.
3. 1 large sweet onion.
4. 2 cups barbecue sauce.
5. ½ cup brown sugar.
6. 2 garlic cloves chopped up.

How To Cook It:

1. Cut the pork roast in half and place in a slow cooker.
2. Cut the onion into medium thin slices and place over the pork roast.
3. Mix the canned pork and beans, barbecue sauce, brown sugar, and garlic cloves in a bowl.
4. Pour the mix from the bowl over the pork roast.
5. Cover and cook for 7 hours on low.
6. Take the roast out and shred it.
7. Put the roast back in the slow cooker for 1 hour.
8. Step 8 is eating.

Please note that although pork and beans is often enjoyed with corn bread, this is Catastrophic Default Pork And Beans, thus the corn bread is left out.

12 DIY Cheap Wood Burning Stoves & Heater Tutorials — Homestead and Survival

12 DIY Cheap Wood Burning Stoves & Heater Tutorials — Homestead and Survival





Great  ideas and potential money savers. Wood stoves would be the best way to keep having heat in a shtf situation. I love wood burning stoves , but they can be expensive, so being able to make one for your family to use is a super idea.

SURVIVE Infinite Dangers -- The Family Survival Guide of 21st Century Dangers

SURVIVE Infinite Dangers -- The Family Survival Guide of 21st Century Dangers was a free book for kindle when this post was written.


 FINALLY, a ‘survivalist” book written for the average suburbanite whose most dangerous task in life until now has been doing battle with crab grass. This book is not meant for the experienced outdoors type who enjoys solitary months “living off the land” in the backwoods of Alaska but, instead, is meant for people who are more at home at “camp Marriott”; someone who enjoys a walk in the park followed by a few hours in a hot tub. The author fits that description so this book was easy to write from first-person experience! You will not find instructions on which bug parts are edible or how to live in a dirt dug-out cave for a few years.

Most people just want to know (1) “what are these “dangers” in SIMPLE terms and (2) how do I best protect my family and others who join my group? You want information to tell you which disasters are not worth worrying about (that the media just scares viewers with for ratings) and which ones may be world changing. You won’t remember everything you read in this book but, keeping it handy, you will have a quick reference guide when a bulletin appears on a TV or radio station with “important information”. It could be anything from something that may lead to your life totally changing to something that won’t even be in the newspaper tomorrow. But you’ll probably have no idea as newscasters seem to love to repeat long scientific words given them by their producers. They also have no idea if it is important or not but they know to make it sound important!

People don’t want to spend hundreds of hours reading becoming an expert on every subject these media “talking heads” banter about. You don’t need to! You have no idea and you really don’t care. I’ve done all that for you in this book. All of these newly invented man-made “Infinite Dangers” that are easy to protect against make up at least 95% of the man-made dangers that didn’t exist twenty or even ten years ago. What exactly is “Infinite Dangers? Simple! Anything seriously dangerous to you and your family and/or group as well as a community, city, state, country or even the world! While the author is not an expert in survivalism, the information contained in this book comes from many expert sources and has been reviewed by experts for completeness and accuracy.

This book is more like 5,000 pages in length. Maybe even 50,000 if you count the contents of ALL the Web sites mentioned. No, that is not a typo. You’ll notice extensive mentions of Web sites. Why waste paper in this book to convey knowledge that is already extensively covered within many Internet sites. The Web sites referenced convey far more information than I could ever write in this book. They provide more detail and more information than I could jam into this book unless you want to buy a 5,000 page book printed in very small type. In fact, this book could be a six page list of small type Web sites except you wouldn’t know which sites are most important and you wouldn’t know what to do with the information. Thus, consider this your “reference book” that either has the information you need within this book, Web addresses of the sites that have the needed information or titles of other books you may wish to buy.

Unlike many books on the subject of surviving and living through disasters from minor short-term local ones to worldwide long-term disasters near the stage of Armageddon, this book does not divide chapters into specific disasters (both by nature and manmade) such as earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, terrorist attacks, nuclear radiation, pandemics, anarchy and a hundred other specific dangers but, instead, assumes that 90% of preparation and survival of all disasters is essentially the same. It does not waste time repeating the same information chapter after chapter. IF YOU PREPARED FOR EVERYTHING, YOU ARE PREPARED FOR ANYTHING.
