Raccoons at the Dunes It was around midnight on the first night of a week of tracking on Oregon’s coastal sand dunes with the Anake Outdoor School, and I was snug as a bug in a rug underneath my small tarp shelter. My dreams of clear fox prints and porcupine sightings were abruptly interrupted by View the full article at NatureSkills.com

Been to a gun shop lately?
I live in South Carolina and have visited several gun shops as well as stores that carry firearms and ammunition. All are pretty much the same – no semi-automatic firearms (centerfire or rimfire), no magazines, and several calibers of ammunition virtually absent. Don’t see this anymore. With the threat of a new Assault Weapons Ban just over the horizon, there has been a massive rush on guns, magazines and ammunition – specifically AK’s, AR’s and the like. 7.62 x 39mm, .223/5.56mm, and 9mm ammunition have disappeared off the shelves along with .22LR. Any and all magazines holding over 10 rounds are gone or selling online for big bucks. …..nor this. I felt pretty squared away with all of the above. I felt that way…

The 9 Most Awesome MOVIE Bug Out Vehicles of All Time
There’s nothing I love more than a good BUG OUT movie truck. Below is a collection of some of my favorite movie vehicles that I’d take on a BUG OUT any day of the week. I’m sure I missed some, so please add your own favorites in the comments section below! Here they are in no particular order: MOVIE: Red Dawn (the original) VEHICLE: 1978 Chevrolet K10 Cheyenne WOLVERINES!!!! Need I say more. I still vow to buy a 78 Cheyenne one of these days.

Don’t Even Talk About Ending QEI
That’s Quantitative Easing (to) Infinity. The futures for the precious metals were (how to politely say this?) in the crapper this morning with Gold down $40 on the futures earlier and silver down 4{660353129f8d892044c993645a1c75194301fec6786a7f617c15adde0b0011e9} as well. What’s going on is a titanic battle between the forces of Deflation and Inflation since we’re in the Second Depression by my reckoning, and will be until 2017, more’n likely. Inflation, is in the process of having its butt kicked. Which, as I have warned before, is a problem for the metals just waiting to happen. In play this morning. In fact, what’s happening right now is that the Fed is not pushing so much money into the economy as to make inflation show up – which could save gold. Instead, while…

Fungal Infections
Minor infections can affect your group’s efficiency in times of trouble. In addition to viruses and bacteria, our body may be susceptible to “yeast”. Yeast is a fungus that is one-celled and reproduces by budding off the parent. The human body naturally harbors certain types but can be damaged by others. Fungal infections may be
Swiss Firm Introduces Divisible Gold Card For “A Scary New World”
As uncertainty about the stability of the global economy spreads and investors look for ways to diversify their assets, precious metals companies are looking for ways to cater to those who are seeking a safe haven in assets like gold and silver. Though often described as “the money of last resort,” one gripe from potential investors about owning gold is that it is costly, currently running around $1700 an ounce, and not feasible as an emergency exchange mechanism in the event of financial and economic catastrophe that may disrupt food supplies and the normal flow of commerce. The problem with one ounce gold coins, or even 1/10th of an ounce fractional coins, is that if you needed to buy a few loaves…

Wilderness Fire Making: We Have Ignition, by Brad M.
I have been a scoutmaster for 18 years. It is a lot of fun teaching scouts how to make fire using unorthodox methods. Seeing the look in their eyes as they get their first fire built in the outdoors using no matches is a great experience. As a matter of fact, in winter camps where the ground is not frozen I like to use a trench fire pit with rocks in it, then bury it and sleep on top for a very cozy and warm night. I too was bitten by the survival bug when I was a young scout, and the first priority in survival is ‘keeping your wits about you” so you can focus on what is important. One real …
America’s Biggest Killers: The Chart Anti-Gunners Don’t Want You To See
What we are hearing from bloviating gun control advocates in America is nothing short of emotionally driven irrationality. According to statistics assembled from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Center for Disease Control and the Federal Government, firearms related homicides are minuscule in comparison to other the other “big killers” in the United States. If we look at homicide statistics in the United States it’s clear that more murders are committed with knives, bats, hammers and poisons than with firearms. As Kurt Nimmo recently noted, “ the number of murders committed annually with hammers and clubs far outpaces the number of murders committed…
