Introducing Goal 0 solar power products

Even though we try to keep a global focus we still like finding and supporting local businesses that fit into the prepping niche. We recently met up with a Bluffdale company to take a look at some of their innovative solar products.

Book Review: What's Wrong With My Plant?

<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3507" title="whats-wrong-with-my-plant" src="/images/uploads/2011/02/whats-wrong-with-my-plant.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="304" />The other day I picked up a new gardening book from the hardware store. Its cover wasn't cluttered with photographs like so many other gardening and home improvement books; in fact, the only photo on the cover was of an obviously-distressed leaf. The rest of the cover was largely devoted to the full title of the book: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0881929611?ie=UTF8&tag=prepper-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0881929611">What's Wrong With My Plant? (And How Do I Fix It?): A Visual Guide to Easy Diagnosis and Organic Remedies</a>, by David Deardorff and Kathryn Wadsworth. This was actually the first thing that caught my eye. I don't like when books try to glam themselves up in an attempt to conceal the vapid content inside. This book looked like it was ready to get down to business, and so I picked it up and started leafing through it. It didn't take me long to decide to buy it.

Barter Equipment

Turtle Tuff Shelter Demonstration

As a web developer who freelances in addition to my full time employment, I sometimes take advantage of bartering opportunities. Last year one such opportunity presented itself—I was on the lookout for a military surplus tent of some sort, and came across a company called <a href="http://www.turtletuffshelters.com">Turtle Tuff Shelters</a> who made yurt-like geodesic shelters. Their website at the time was very.. ahem.. lacking, so I suggested a barter. They agreed, and a few months later I became the owner of a 24' Turtle Tuff Shelter.

Reviews TEOTWAWKI Survival

Survival Movie Review: 2012

<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-2845" title="2012 Roland Emmerich Poster" src="/images/uploads/2009/11/2012-Roland-Emmerich-Poster.jpg" alt="2012 Roland Emmerich Poster" width="270" height="400" />Last night a few prepper friends and I went to the midnight opening show of the new survival/TEOTWAWKI movie 2012. I wasn't sure what to expect as I had already heard that they had blown it or that it was really bad. But I figured even a bad movie can be enjoyed (through mocking) if you've got a group of friends with you!
