Hoodsbee: The Hoodie That Becomes A Plush Toy

I was really wowed when I first seen this!  My Little Man even more. This is such a neat idea and it is easy to become a backer of this project through Kickstarter!

A soft, plush toy that becomes a hoodie for your child is a great idea. They can take it along with them in car, camping, school, trips, airplane, etc and if they get cold put it on. Then at bed time they have their snuggly stuffed animal that they can use as a pillow to make them feel at home. Awesome! Pledge to  Hoodsbee at Kickstarter!

Ebola: How to prepare for Ebola

Ebola: How to prepare for Ebola was a free kindle book when this post was written.

Ebola has been dominating the world news in recent weeks. The Ebola outbreak in West Africa has infected hundreds of people and has claimed many lives. The concern is that the Ebola virus will transfer around the world very quickly. The reason that this is a real danger is that Ebola Symptoms can take as long as 21 days to show themselves, in this time the virus can be spread around the world.

However, unlike flu the virus, Ebola is not airborne. This gives us a good chance of being able to fight it and stop the Ebola outbreak from spreading.

This book covers the viral symptoms of the Ebola virus - it tells you what to look out for. Like many infectious diseases, Ebola transfers quickly where there is poor public health and lack of sanitation, the book explains why western survival rates are likely to be higher.

The prepper community is fully aware of the need to prepare for potential pandemics such as these and preppers will have already stockpiled goods to help them survival if the Ebola outbreak reaches our shores. The book gives a short insight into how a prepper will prepare for any infectious disease, including Ebola and flu, hitting the United States and tells people new to the concept what steps to take in the first instance.
