Health Care is Killing the US!
Pelosi/Ried care is going to kill the US!  And we at Urbansurvivalsecrets want you to take action! Lets start with the Bureaucracy’s.  111 or 112 new agencies will be formed to handle the slew of paperwork and develop the new regulations.  HOLY CRUD!  Did you know that the 3rd largest employer in the world is Great Britain’s Health Agency.  Mind you Great Brittain has less than 25% of the population of the US.  Wow, I guess our government is not large enough already!  I guess the ...

Swine Flu, and Evacuation Planning
Well, yesterday I was on a call at work when I felt the first signs of something coming on.  Since everyone is HyperParanoid, I let the folks I was working for know about the situation (I am a consultant).  Low and behold, they sent me home.  You see, many companies are not taking chances and are sending people home to avoid having a workplace virus take over.  Unlike years past when companies would look the other way when you would sit in your office an tough it. The big ... Read Full Story
Dem lousey Hypocrits
I don’t know about you, but I am sick of the Obama Clan/Admin in DC. Why may you ask.  Lets start with the Swine flu (H!N!).  The admin is running around like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off screaming how horrible the swine flu is and we need to all get inoculated.  Sad thing is that the preservatives used to keep the serum stable are TOXIC!  Yes, typically a mercury compound.  Don’t we get enough in our food supply due to China burning their dirty coal?  The other is...

Changes to the blog are a coming
Good day to all! With fall a falling, the leaves are changing and so will the blog.  I am not sure if I will change the theme or not.  But what will become obvious is that I will allow some advertising to occur.  I will be experimenting with the placement of the ads.  I do ask that if you see something, go ahead and click on the ad.  Ya never know what easter egg you may get!  This of course is at no cost to you, ad will help offset some of the cost to the site. On another note, last week at ... Read Full Story
Swine Flu – H1N1
I received an email from one of the Urban Survival Secrets readers about H1N1.  She asked why is the government calling it by the strain name instead of the common name! Truth of the matter – our illustrious government is trying to cool the fear down to make it sound sooo clinical.  Yup, it is a marketing  job. This strain of originated with an avian strain which was transferred to pigs which are immunilogically similar to that of us humans. The thing to remember, this strain is a movin... Read Full Story
The Run on Ammo
Well, ammunition has been a pain to get as of late! I went to Sportsmans Warehouse, Dicks and Walmart and found some, but not much.  I shoot a .308 Winchester and just about choked on the $18+/box price tag.  Gotta love them dems!  Wonder how many own stock in the ammo manufacturers and are pushing the hype.  Bunch of friggin Hypocrites. So, the thing to do is to go out and start handloading.  A few of the local ammo shops have empty cases by the pound.  Take them bad boys, place some Nozzler... Read Full Story
Poisoned Water from the tap?
Did you know that in the September 13th edition of the New York Times, that an article was published that 1 in 10 people in the US are drinking tainted water? Believe it or not, the Times got the information from the EPA – Oh Boy!  Let me quote you from the Times Article “An estimated 1 in 10 Americans have been exposed to drinking water that contains dangerous chemicals or fails to meet a federal health benchmark in other ways, an investigation by The New York Times has found. A ... Read Full Story
Quick Note on Water Treatment Chemicals
I just want to remind everyone, that if you are planning on storing non-scented bleach for water treatment during an emergency, please remember that you need to change out  the bleach every six months to a year (depending on where you store the bleach.)  The best place to keep the stuff is in a cool, dark place to maximize its shelf  life! Remember, use 1/8th of a teaspoon per gallon for emergency treatment, and if the water is really nasty, double it! As part of your home security, you need ... Read Full Story

One thing to think about is this – where to get supplies for your basic storag... Read Full Story
Home Storage deals from Costco
Here are a few things from Costco that are a deal for an urban survival specialist for a quick buy. 5 gallon pail of hard white wheat for 43 cents a pound – 18 buks 5 gallon pail of rolled oats at 69 cents a pound Quinoa cheaper than my local chain natural food store – $2.80 a pound.
