are smart ones to focus on you can get more specific or less specific than the risks above focus on a very specific task or mission for example here s another task travel from home to bug out evac location during time of emergency vehicle becomes stranded or stuck congestion road conditions bad weather emp travel in a group of 2 vehicles drive 4x4s with off road tires winch and tow straps less likely to get stuck alternate routes planned avoid getting stuck maintain situational awareness alternate transportation dirt bike and atvs have on foot routes planned and packs for the journey bridge over river is impassible alternate routes planned alternate bridge 15 miles away plan to leave vehicles and float swim across river one vehicle to have inflatable raft in case of crossing attacked en route to location travel in group of 2 vehicles take tactical driving course training and response plan e g drive through at high speed if possible else bail out from vehicles and engage weapons and support gear in vehicles on foot routes planned bags for the journey in case vehicles must be ditched or become inoperable communications gear to call for support trauma kits plan routes through decent areas including alternate routes situational awareness avoid the temptation to focus purely on extreme impact events that have an extremely low likelihood of happening our minds have a tendency to focus on those big scary things and artificially inflate their perceived likelihood of happening that one in a billion event can become a perceived near certainty overnight devoting too much time and resources to any one extreme long shot event can be unbalancing unhealthy and counterproductive there is also the idea of risk acceptance which is simply recognizing the risk exists but not taking any actions to control or mitigate that risk you may choose not to take action because of cost resources laziness acceptance of impact should the risk occur or your judgment on how likely the risk is to occur people do the risk acceptance math all the time whether consciously or not they live in hurricane zones but have zero in the way of emergency supplies they say things like if the crap hits the fan i guess i will just die or maybe they d just rather spend their time and resources on fun and leisure to each their own corporate government and military planning is full of risk assessment it s used by business execs planning expansion into new regions nasa for planning missions into space and spec ops units gearing up for a direct action raid against a terrorist cell think through the eventualities plan and prepare for the bad things that can happen posted by teotwawki blog alexander wolf at 6 42 pm labels basic survival strategy 1 5 16 bho s useless gun control executive orders the futility of bho s executive orders under the guise of stopping violence is clear even in by the batf s own words from their final ruling for 41p which changes the process for transferring firearms covered by the national firearms act nfa page 42 the department notes that some individuals who own nfa firearms do in fact commit crimes a review of trace data and criminal records from 2006 to 2014 disclosed twelve incidents in which owners of nfa firearms were convicted of crimes however there is no evidence that these crimes were committed with nf a firearms emphasis is mine it then goes on to list the crimes committed and none of them are even actual murder mass murder or terrorism convictions include attempted homicide conspiracy to commit felony offenses of firearms laws operating a drug involved premises possession of unlawful firearms possession of marijuana intent to distribute methamphetamine possession of a firearm during commission of drug trafficking domestic violence theft dealing firearms without a license and possession of an unregistered nf a firearm there are hundreds of thousands of people who have nfa firearms of these hundreds of thousands of people the atf could only identify 12 incidents where nfa owners were convicted of crimes with no evidence that the crimes had actually been committed using the nfa firearms again per the atf itself from 2006 to 2014 not a single nfa firearm owner has actually killed someone so explain to me how adding more requirements to the nfa process for trusts is helping reduce gun violence it s not in fact the crime rate suggests you d likely have a hard time finding a more law abiding less violent group of people in this country it s ridiculous just like the claims you can buy guns off the internet without a background check or the so called gun show loophole but of course you and i know that none of this bs is really about solving the violence problem it s about political gestures ringing of hands and putting more control in the government s hands 41p most of the noise i m hearing is coming from the issuance of 41p which impacts the hurdles that need to be jumped through for transferring nfa items suppressors short barreled rifles etc into a trust or other legal entity if you want to read the full 248 pages the atf has made it available here key bullets at this point trustees now have to submit fingerprints and passport photos when submitting for a form for an nfa item beneficiaries are exempt unless they meet the definition of responsible person the cleos are now to be notified when a nfa form is submitted no cleo sign off required for individuals given that it s a 248 page document written in government speak so the gun community is still digesting the final rule and nuances overall it s a bit of a compromise removing cleo sign off good adding requirements for trusts bad not horribly onerous but more hoops to jump through when using a trust it removes some of the reasons for using a trust for nfa transfers though the estate planning benefits still remain the rule has 180 days before it takes effect posted by teotwawki blog alexander wolf at 8 29 pm labels guns 1 4 16 grumblings and goals well glad that 2015 is done and over with some good some not so good got stronger from lifting heavy things built project ar 2015 had some good friends move from across the country and live by us new mad max was awesome new star wars was pretty good too didn t make the progress that i wanted to make on a number of fronts and took steps back in several areas that always sucks but we do what we can given the current state of the country and world should likely be pessimistic about 2016 shaping up a whole lot better but i ll be damned if i m going to start off a year expecting it to be a crap fest i haven t really written down any goals for the year we ve got family goals of moving to a new house and improving our general financial situation thanks again 2015 wifey has signed herself up for replenishing expanding our food storage personal goals well let me hash those out now first goal is to get new laptop my current laptop has been in warranty repair limbo since november should be resolved by next week hopefully with a check in the mail to me to purchase a replacement strength training has been a big personal focus for me since i got my equipment in august today i found the notebook i used to track my lifts for the first month which was cool to see the progress that i ve made over the course of the past several months i started up wendler s 5 3 1 in december and have been enjoying the program quite a bit the focus on setting new prs and progressing every session gives a great sense of accomplishment currently planning on running 12 cycles of 5 3 1 over the course of the year which would on paper give me 60 pounds to bench press and overhead press upper body and 120 pounds to squat and deadlift lower body there about those increases would put my lifts into respectable territory nothing to brag about but at least into intermediate territory goal foreseeing some complications over a 12 month period a goal of 50 pounds to upper body lifts and 100 pounds to lower body lifts by the end of the year loads of people have been clamoring for the book and i am re arranging some things to make it a priority this year and have the support of the family to dedicate the needed time to it if you haven t read the novel i wrote up for the blog you can check out you took away tomorrow by clicking here can t believe that it wrapped up back in 13 yikes there are lots of good tales out there these days i am aiming for something a bit different that i think will stand out from the crowd stay tuned goal novel on amazon by end of the year or sooner gear wise nothing huge plan to upgrade my ccw rig and get some new plates otherwise mostly plan to focus on updating and restocking some of the current gear kits and expanding stores of consumables food fuel ammo and so on long shots would be some nfa fun sbr and suppressor or a set of night vision i may try to get some budget nods together as a fun project pieced together depending on deals for a tube and parts not holding my breath on those that should get me to a good start for the year how about you guys what are your goals for the year posted by teotwawki blog alexander wolf at 10 03 pm 10 11 15 lifting and strength training intro and the big 4 i grew up a computer video game nerd and have zero strength training background and little natural athletic ability early this year i decided to get myself into lifting get strong and get in better shape i have been pretty committed dedicated and have found myself enjoy time with the weights i am by no means an expert but i ve learned a few things so far that i thought could be of help to those thinking about getting into lifting when we talk about serious strength training nearly all programs focus on the big 4 squat bench deadlift and overhead military press there are lots of great youtube videos on the correct form for each of these search them up and watch having good form is important for not only helping you lift the most weight but also ensuring you stay injury free of the big 4 i ve found the squat hardest to perform i have tight not very flexible hips and have had to focus on improving my mobility there youtube up mobility wod if you run into similar issues lots of excellent stretches to help loosen things up though most agree that the big 4 should be the foundation of any program there s less consensus on other program variables like number of reps sets frequency of training progression and what if any assistance work one should do that s where the differences come in when you look at programs like starting strength stronglifts 5x5 5 3 1 or whatever else more on programming to come the big 4 are all barbell exercises so you ll need to hit a gym or invest in some home gym equipment to perform them i went the route of setting up a garage gym and it took me several months to put together all of the needed equipment the wait and expense has been well worth it and the best way for me to ensure i can lift 3 4 times a week more is in the works to discuss the equipment side of things i have become a huge fan of rogue fitness gear a bit pricier than some of the chinese made stuff but super solid great company and made in the usa whatever program you choose adding incremental amounts of weight tracking your progress and tracking your personal records prs is key and part of the fun watching your strength progress is awesome crushing reps with weights that you couldn t even lift once pretty sweet and the progression quickly becomes addictive more to come hit me up with questions or requests in the comments section posted by teotwawki blog alexander wolf at 7 16 am labels lifting 9 26 15 the world is not ending this weekend once you re ready spiritually and physically you re ready after that it s physical and spiritual maintenance constant improvement and enjoying life for those who haven t heard there s a bunch of buzz over tomorrow night s super blood

statement telling the minority who were freaking out to calm themselves down the freak out hasn t been limited to my latter day saint peoples of course many others are getting their panic buying on there are a lot of bad things going on in the world right now that one could certainly see as signs that the end is near i am totally with you and convincing arguments can certainly be woven by using scripture historical records and some good story telling however before you get carried away take a look at this long list of failed apocalyptic prophesies for some perspective people have been prophesying the end of the world for a couple thousand years now nobody has been right yet after this weekend they ll be adding another line item to that list the kjv is pretty clear on apocalyptic
