Here is a simple project that you can build out of easily available parts. Take two drums and paint them black. Build a wooden box and insulate it with sheet styrofoam about one inch thick. You can get this foam at most large “Home Do-It Centers” in 4ft. x 8ft. sheets. Paint the inside of the box black. Make a lid by building a wooden frame and insert a sheet of glass, double pane would be even better. Place the heater at an elevated site or on tower (for water pressure) and orient the glass towards the south.

Introduction
Spend any amount of time in the outdoors and you have probably found that mealtime is full of trade-offs. Do you choose foods that fuel your body or foods that satisfy your taste buds? Do you spend the extra time to prepare a real meal or grab a protein bar on the go? Freezer Bag Cooking minimizes these trade-offs by changing the concepts of traditional outdoor food. It offers simplicity, convenience and variety. The cooking gear needed is minimal, lightweight and can be bought, found or even made. Meals are prepared at home and put into zip top freezer bags. When ready to eat, the meal is prepared in and eaten out of the freezer bag. Mealtime becomes fast, effortless and cleanup is as easy as licking your utensil and sealing the zip top bag. Also, with meals portioned into individual freezer bags, making meals for multi-day trips, families or a group is painless.

Garden Location
The garden should have a southern exposure (south side of your home) or be in an open field if at all possible. There should be a minimum of six hours of direct sunlight at the chosen location. A well- drained site even after a heavy rain is ideal. Poor drainage may be improved by regrading, digging ditches, installing a tile drain field, or adding organic matter.

This is a book put together in 1902 by L. Ray Balderston, Director of domestic science, and M.C. Limerick, Instructor of domestic science in the Drexel Institute. This is an excellent book on maintaining and cleaning cloth items without electricity. Clothing, bed linen, table linens, stain removal and starching/ironing. A very helpful manual.
I have a lot of friends who are into weapons of all kinds and we all do a lot of range time. We all have modest ammo caches but try to go to the range regularly.
Usually when we go to the range we’ll spend an hour or two, just depends on what we feel like doing, but we’ll probably go through 250-300 rounds. I have friends that go ever single weekend, burn through 500 rounds, replenish the ammo bag every single weekend.
Lately, because of the crazy prices and sketchy availability, we haven’t been going as much, but still probably make it twice a month.
How much do you go through in a month?

Tuohy runs a blog called Vuurwapen (the Dutch word for firearm), where he provides photos, videos and accounts of testing various gun-related gear. During one such test — an underwater examination of several different gun shots — Tuohy was left with jacketed hollow point bullets that resembled flowers.
The annulment of the armistice agreement with South Korea and repeated threats to attack the South over the past three weeks have, so far, been exposed as nothing more than bluff and bluster.

SURVIVAL PLANNING AND SURVIVAL KITS
Survival planning is nothing more than realizing some- thing could happen that would put you in a survival sit- uation and, with that in mind, taking steps to increase your chances of survival. Thus, survival planning means preparation.
Preparation means having survival items and knowing how to use them People who live insnow regions prepare their ve- hicles for poor road conditions. They put snow tires on their vehicles, add extra weight in the back for traction, and they carry a shovel, salt, and a blanket. Another example of prepa- ration is finding the emergeny exits on an aircraft when you board it for a flight. Preparation could also mean knowing your intended route of travel and familiarizing yourself with the area. Finally, emergency planning is essential.
