Just Thought I'd Share

     I recently came across a Ted talk about growing gardens and the important role they could play in our future.  Take a look:

Weekly World Risk Report 5/23 - 5/29

      A weekend of hotdogs, barbacues, sun and flags is finished. Memorial Day weekend is over and so we're back here at the Paracord Project with your weekly world risk report.

     There has been a significant earthquake in Argentina, and epidemics seem to be back on the rise with epidemics in Uganda and the Dominican Republic with more epidemic hazards.

      Look for the information you need to stay safe and survive and keep on prepping.

Weekly World Risk Report 5/16 - 5/22

  
      Explosions and chemical accidents were the main stories this week. However the earthquake numbers are rising again, and a strong earthquake in Italy earlier this week led to some deaths.

      There were a number of terrorist attacks this week, and meanwhile nuclear weapons talks continue in Iran.

      On a postive note however there has been a successful launch of the Falcon 9 rocket by the private company SpaceX to the International Space Station.

Starting Seeds

      I have been excited since I started this blog to start seeds for a small garden. Now by a small garden I actually mean that I have two types of plants that I am going to try and grow, but yah know, details. Also in all my excitment for this garden I have suddenly found myself running out of time to get these planted.

     In fact the seedlings should be going into the ground next weekend, but it will probebly end up being a few weeks after that.  However I wanted to let you know how I started my seeds so you can give yours a try as well if your going to try a garden this summer.

Weekly World Risk Update 5/9 - 5/15

      This weekly world report is all about the health concerns and epidemics that are being declared. A mysterious skin disease in Vietnam has claimed more lives while epidemics have been declared in Madagascar, the Phillipenes, Nepal, and Ghana, with an epidemic hazard being declared in Ireland.

      Meanwhile the drug war continues to heat up in Mexico as cartels battle over territory, and the Eurozone Crisis heats up once again with talk of Greece exiting the eurozone.

      This is your weekly report preppers. Look for the information you need to stay safe and survive and keep on prepping.

Water Purification and PET Water Bottles

     Today I am going to go into the different ways to purify water.  Whether SHTF or there is just a water main break in your area its a good thing to know how to do.  Also in the Water Basics post, the actual feasibility and safety of water bottles for water storage got brought up.  So I have gone more into depth on that topic as well.

Weekly World Risk Update (5/2 - 5/8)

     A typhoid epidemic has been delcared in the Phillipeans, there have been a number of terrorist attacks this week, and numerous elections have been underway in Europe and other places as well.

      This is your weekly report preppers. Look for the information you need to stay safe and survive and keep on prepping.

The Basics: Water

     Water is one of the most important things we need to live, whether we're in a survival situation or not. So I thought I would go into some basics on water. Why would you need to filter it? Is bottled better than tap water? What about in a survival situation? This is what you need to know about water.

The Rule of Three

     So recently I have been doing a lot of research on a lot of different topics and as a result I found myself learning a lot about a lot of little different things and nothing is connected. You can see the results in my blog posts as well, because just I have been bouncing from topic to topic in my research, so have my posts. As a result I have decided to try a back to the basics approach.

     I am going to try to start with the basics and move out from there, so hopefully I have better structure and continuation in the things I am learning. This will hopefully also translate into blog posts covering more information about one topic before going on to the next as well. Which brings me to the topic of today's post. The Rule of Three! In survival you can't get more basic than this rule.

Weekly World Risk Report 4/25 - 5/1

    

     There is anthrax in Ghana, a number of nuclear incidents in the United States, afracanized bees in Oklahoma and Hungary, and epidemics of measles in the Ukraine and India.
     There was a terrorist attack in the Ukraine and violence continues surrounding the drug war in Mexico. Church attacks continue in Africa and Spain's economy has double dipped putting unemployment at 25%. Sound like the Great Depression to anyone else?
