Whether for in your home, or in your bug-out kit, a First aid is a must. Here's a simple list of things that will up your survivability by a decent percentage.

How To Tell If You Are Being Followed

If you ever think you are being followed, here are some tips and tricks to find out.

Make two right turns. If someone's still behind you after this, I would set your self from alert to high alert. You haven't done anything suspicious yet, so they don't know you know they're following you.

Make a U-Turn. If they're still behind you, they're following you.

Put on your right turn signal, and make a left turn or go straight.

If you're walking or jogging, drop a random piece of paper. If they pick it up, they're following you.

One World Currency

The Amero

As S.L. mentioned over here, we are heading towards a one world currency and New World Order. I find it enlightening to know other people think about such things, and ironic that, just one day after me re-addressing this blog and turning it in such a direction, that I see a similar post on the main page. The world is not all blind

More on Puppy Mills

I recently posted in regards to the problem of puppy mills in the US. I have seen many of them, but it seems as though this is more of a problem then I could even imagine. I open AOL. Which is my who is my Internet is though. The front page comes up with news of a puppy mill/animal hoarder being shut down. We are not talking about 50 or even 100 dogs here. There were 800. YES I SAID 800. Among these were Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Terriers and Chinese Crested. These dogs were being housed in a mobile home. The authorities mention the smell, as being strong referring to the sent of urine and feces.

Authorities say that there are many pregnant, and some were even giving birth as they were being transported to the local shelter in Arizona. The dogs are not the only problem. There were also 82 caged parrots. This is a disgrace. What is wrong with people. These people were out for money. They were selling these puppies for profit. Its sad that people can not get out and get a REAL job. Instead they stay home to raise countless litters of puppies, Kittens or clutches of birds. And we wonder why we have an over population of animals in this world. Countess animals are put down every day. When will we stop the madness. Makes me sick to think about

Puppy Mills Stop The Greed (graphic Photo)

We have a major problem in the world with puppy mills. What is a puppy Mill? Well a puppy mill is a breeder with more then 2 breeds of dogs. All of the poor dogs shoved into small cages. Left there to produce litter upon litter of puppies. These poor dogs do not know what love is. Most of them are terrified off people. These poor animals are not taken to the vet for any reason. I cannot tell you the number of pictures of animals I have seen in this condition. There are no laws in the US to stop this. This terrible business is not only about dogs. There are also kitten mills. The horrible thing is that these people have no idea they are doing anything wrong. They think this is ok as long as they are getting a check every time they have puppies to sell.
A few years ago I had a friend (ex-friend now) who had a Miniature Schnauzer puppy for sale. I went to her home, she is a breeder with 50 dogs, this was right after I met her, I was not aware she was a puppy mill until much later. I met this puppy. So sweet. I fell in love with the little girl. While I was playing with the girl she brought in a male Schnauzer. I fell in love with him too. I decided to buy both puppies. I brought them home. She called me 2 days later and said the male had a Doggy STD, he got it from his mother and I had to take him back. I was totally heart broken. We kept Laura (the female). Took her to the vet all was good with her. I was looking at her papers and noticed a man's name on her papers. Not the girl I bought her from. So I called the girl and asked about this. She said she bought a few puppies from another breeder for re-sale. Not from the man on the papers but yet another person. So I called the man on the papers and inquired about purchasing a sister of my puppy from him. I was then told that all of his puppies are sold before they are born to pet stores and the like.
I called my friend back and asked what she knew about this man. She said that she knew he was the worst puppy mill she had ever seen. With 500 dogs all in little cages standing in their own poop

"The Notebook" Worth Watching?

The Notebook staring Ryan Gosling, James Garner, Rachel McAdams and Gena Rowlands is a must see. This is a story about an elderly woman who has lost her memory due to dimentia. Her husband and soal mate spends his time reading their story to her in hopes she will remember him and the love they share. Through out the movie, we go back in time to when they first met.We learn that Allie came from a wealthy family, and Noah was working at a lumber yard. Allie's father did not want Noah and Aliie together.

This is a wonderful love story. The best I have ever seen. The love between Allie and Noah is something many people only dream about. I think this movie is well worth watching.

Survive: Writing A Last Minute Paper

There you are again, drinking a beer and watching Robot Chicken. Hey, do you not have a term paper due tomorrow? Yeah, you do. Oh snap. Better get to it. Do not get frustrated and smash your computer! You will need it. Let me help you out a bit.

Not Correct!

The easiest thing to do is just take an old paper you have written for another class in the past, and submit it. Of course this only works in particular situations. Honestly, I have never been able to do this, but I have seen many people pull this off before, and get good marks, too. If you are like me and can not do this, all hope is not lost! Read on
