Potassium Iodide (KI) and How to Protect Yourself From Radiation Poisoning

<a href="/images/uploads/2011/03/IMG_2430.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3568" title="IMG_2430" src="/images/uploads/2011/03/IMG_2430-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>With the current potential nuclear crisis in Japan, I have been inundated with questions about<a href="http://www.utahpreppers.com/2008/11/preparing-for-a-nuclear-attack-determining-your-scenario/"> Fallout Survival</a>, <a href="http://www.utahpreppers.com/2008/11/preparing-for-a-nuclear-attack-some-background/">Nuclear Preparedness</a>,<a href="http://www.utahpreppers.com/2009/06/the-master-evacuation-kit-list"> General Preparedness</a> and Potassium Iodide among many other things.  I realized that while a lot of these things are covered on Utah Preppers, Potassium Iodide is kind of glossed over.  This post is my answer to all those questions and should be a definitive post on KI or Potassium Iodide.  Please note: at this time, due to the crisis in Japan, KI is <strong><em>Sold Out </em></strong>pretty much everywhere.

Starting a Fire with Steel Wool

Making Fire Starting Candles

<a href="/images/uploads/2011/01/EggTinder.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3368" title="EggTinder" src="/images/uploads/2011/01/EggTinder-194x300.jpg" alt="" width="194" height="300" /></a>Continuing my series on Light and Heat, today I'm going to talk about making Fire Starting Candles.  There are a variety of ways to do this, today we're going to cover using cardboard egg cartons and dryer lint or cotton balls.  This particular project will likely already be familiar to experienced Preppers and Boy Scouts.  This post is aimed at those new to prepping who have never been exposed to this kind of thing.
