How to Make a Gravity Water Filter
Is your drinking water really safe? Just because it has no odor and tastes fine doesn't mean it is. Many contaminants are too small to see and have no odor. Of course, you can have your water tested and this is the best option to be sure it is safe. But some people still feel their water isn't as pure as they would like.
If you have decided you ought to filter your water but are unsure if it will make any difference, why not make your own trial carbon water filter? It isn't difficult or expensive, and it will give you the option of seeing what carbon can do to improve your water quality.
To begin this project, obtain these items: a twelve inch length of 2 1/2 inch PVC pipe, a 2 1/2 inch cap, a quantity of activated carbon, a piece of vinyl hose, and a paper coffee filter. You will also need a drill and bit the size of the outside diameter of the vinyl hose.
Drill a hole in the center of the PVC cap. Insert the vinyl hose into the hole, making sure it fits tightly. If it leaks, silicone sealant should be used. Push the cap onto the PVC pipe and, if needed, seal it with PVC sealer. Next, fold the piece of filter paper and push it into the PVC pipe so that it covers the hole in the cap.
Add the carbon to the open end of the PVC and pour water over it until it is full. Point the vinyl hose into a container where the filtered water can collect. You may want to discard the first batch of filtered water since it might have washed out contaminants from the project.
A stand can be made with two 4 inch squares of wood, a wooden base and attached upright. Drill a hole in each 4 inch square large enough for the PVC. Then screw the wood blocks to the upright piece and insert your filter. A setscrew can be used in one of the square supports so the PVC does not slide down.
Here are a few things to consider if you make your own filter. First, the longer the pipe, the more water it will hold and the more charcoal it will pass over before exiting the unit. In other words, the longer the PVC pipe, the better it is. Second, periodically replace the carbon and clean out the PVC pipe while it is empty. How often this needs to be done depends on how much water you filter through it.
You may not get a great quantity of water using this inexpensive method, but it will be enough to drink and, if the container is refilled regularly, you can store the purified water for future use.
If this sounds like too much work, consider the Berkey Water Filter line. The Black Berkey purification elements that ship with the Berkey Filters are so powerful, they can remove food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. And since they are gravity fed, no electricity is needed. Virtually no other filtration element can duplicate this performance.

The Dangers of Radiation Exposure
Radiation is a naturally occurring form of energy that occurs in sunlight and sound waves. However, mankind has harnessed this power through nuclear materials, such as uranium, plutonium, and thorium. These materials can be utilized for weapons, electricity production, and medical devices. While radioactive materials have helped further things like clean energy and medical diagnostics, exposure to the radiation can cause serious damage to your health.
First, everyone experiences small doses of radiation throughout their lives. This is called background radiation. It comes from small amounts of radioactive materials in rocks and dirt, and it can also come from cosmic radiation. Additionally, most people at some point receive medical treatment that involves radiation, such as taking an x-ray. Over time, this low-intensity exposure is mostly harmless although it can increase your chance of developing cancer.
The frightening type of radiation exposure comes from a short-term, intense dose that causes radiation poisoning or sickness. This typically occurs due to radiation accidents. There are several different types of jobs that involve radiation and are therefore at risk for radiation poisoning, including:
Mining or handling nuclear materials
Working in a nuclear power plant
Testing or working with nuclear weapons
Nuclear pharmacists
X-ray technicians
Doctors who perform radiation cancer treatment, vascular embolization, etc.
If something goes wrong, like if the radioactive materials spill in a nuclear pharmacy, the pharmacists can be exposed to a high dose of radiation. This can cause radiation poisoning. Although there are several symptoms of this condition, they may only appear much later after the accident. Immediate signs of exposure include:
Red, painful skin burns
Welts or ulcers where the skin touched the radioactive material
Nausea
Diarrhea
Hair loss
Organ failure
Radiation sickness treatment depends on the extent of your exposure. Doctors must try to remove external contamination, such as radioactive particles on your clothing, as well as nuclear materials inside of your body. Sadly, there is no cure for radiation poisoning, and doctors attempt, instead, to fight the complications arising from the sickness, such as loss of bone marrow, increased risk of infection, etc.
If you have suffered from radiation sickness due to a nuclear accident at work, you may be entitled to workers' compensation to help with your pain and suffering. To discuss your case, contact a New Jersey workers' comp lawyer from Levinson Axelrod, P.A., today.

Dehydrated Bananas
I was sitting and looking at 3 bananas yesterday that no one was going to eat and I thought that I better get them dehydrated before they go bad. I know it was just 3 bananas and probably not worth it , but I loaded up 3 trays and get it started and now have banana chips that everyone wants to eat!!
I dip them in lemon juice before I dehydrate them so they won't turn brown. But do not leave them in the juice for very long - it will start breaking them down and they will be nasty. Believe me. I found this out the first time I ever did bananas. I though that I should leave them in the juice for a few minutes , but all it did was turn them to mush. YUCK!
They are a really good snack when they are done. You can also add them to oatmeal. Which is very yummy. My kids love to eat oatmeal that has some fruit added to it. That is one of the reasons I dehydrate so much fruit. Like Strawberries, blueberries, bananas, peaches, etc - you get the picture.

Can We Ever REALLY Be Prepared Enough??
After everything that has been going on in the world the past few weeks, it has me wondering if we can ever really be prepared enough. Something is going to happen that we are not prepared for. Something is going to be worse than we ever thought that it could be and we are going to be left unprepared and in shock that it could be that bad. Worse than we ever imagined. All that I can do is get my family prepared as well as I can and hope for the best.
We need to start praying and get prepared spiritually as well!!

Food Price Watch - February 2011
Food Price Watch - February 2011
I wanted to share this link. I went to the grocery store yesterday and was shocked at how high the meat prices had gotten in just the 2 weeks since I had been there. It is just ridiculous. Milk was about 50 cents higher and eggs were 20 cents higher. It all adds up. But, the meat prices is what shocked me the most. Teeny tiny roasts that are usually about 3-5 dollars were priced about $12.00. Which I did not buy. That is just not right. I seen a lot of other people there looking at the meat and then just walking off. So sad. I only bought 2 1-pound packages of ground beef. I really do not know what we are all going to do with this price hike on every single thing. I guess this summer since I am going to have a garden - we will become full fledged vegetarians.
