(Anti-flaming troll discloser) Please keep in mind that this is my personal opinion, from experience and training . And I am in no way trying to fear monger .......Please take any information or subject given here in this thread and research it for your self ....






This generation really don't have the all out nuclear war possibility like the last generation . But the risk for a terror attack or a small war with nuclear weapons in one city or multiple city is just as great now and the future.



The threat of a ground nuclear explosion in a large city is something we all should now how to prepare for and know how to react to it . Ok lets say you are in the suburbs of a major city you see a bright flash . Don't look at flash this is harder then you think for alot of people will look out of curiosity, this flash will be bright there is no doubt you will know somethings wrong make your self look down. If you are in the open lay down with your feet to the area you seen the flash .If there is a wall or something very close you can get behind do it, remember thermal radiation travel in a straight line. In both cases you want to cover skin, time is not on your side you may have just enough time to drop down or take cover before thermal radiation hit you.




If its a 1MT nuclear blast the thermal radiation pulse will give first-degree burns (a bad sunburn) at a distance of about 11 miles to exposed skin .Second-degree burns (producing blisters ) at distances of about 9 miles to exposed skin and third-degree burns (which destroy skin tissue) at distances up to 7 miles to exposed skin and the pulse will last for 2.5 seconds. A 20MT nuclear explosion will give first-degree burns (a bad sunburn) at a distance of about 32 miles. Second-degree burns (producing blisters ) at distances of about 27 miles to exposed skin. and third-degree burns (which destroy skin tissue) at distances up to 23 miles to exposed skin and the pulse will last for 6.5 seconds. remember Third-degree burns over 24 percent of the body, or second-degree burns over 30 percent, will result in serious shock, and will probably prove fatal unless prompt burn treatment is given.




One other note cloths color does matter light colors like white ref lets alot of the thermal energy.Now depending on your location to ground zero you have 10 to 20 seconds before the blast wave hits you.Also remember in this time there will be fires from the thermal pulse alot of wood house and objects will be on fire .One finally note on thermal radiation pulse how much heat there was on you and around you and how much items are on fire is around you is a good why to get a ideal how far you are away from ground zero. This is the time you need to find cover and protection from the blast wave you have about 20 seconds find the best protection there is and get to it in that time. alway remember to keep your mouth open for overpressure injury to protect your lungs.About 50 seconds after the explosion, when the fireball is no longer visible, the blast wave has traveled about 12 miles out which is about 784 miles per hour (blast wave speed).




Now were you took protection and you survived the blast wave stay put there will be another wave shortly from the fireball sucking up the oxygen there will be a wave going past you to ground zero that will make the mushroom cloud and pull alot of material up the mushroom cloud to make fallout .Now the blast wave is over keep in mind there will be major damage on civilian building up to 30 miles yes the blast wave put out a the original fire but more will start right away. The primary ignition sources will be flames and pilot lights in heating appliances (furnaces, water heaters, stoves, etc.). Smoldering material from the thermal pulse can be very effective at igniting leaking gas etc.



Ok you survived the blast now we need to think about distance ,shielding,time .......a old Fema saying but true you need to protect your self from gamma rays and neutrons and fallout. If you lived through all this and you were only 10 miles away from ground zero you still will not make it you have had a lethal dose of gamma and neutrons sad to say. at this point you have 15 minutes before full scale fallout rains down on you.Now take note of mushroom cloud location and the damage around you to get a rough guess how far you are from ground zero then you must get wind direction. Side note at ground zero if it was just a 1MT bomb at ground level At the center lies a crater 200 feet deep and 1000 feet in diameter.




If you can get to a better location for protection do so if you can't make it out of area in that time frame you need to shelter in place under ground if possible with alot of shielding above you like concete, dirt, etc. this will be a life or death decision .Like i stated before if you can get out of the area and the fallout in 15 min do so .If not you got to shield yourself from radiation and fallout radiation. You need to mark the outside with information and the number of people inside the shelter so responders can find you make it as big as you can so it sticks out .Also before you shelter in you need to get all the radioactive dust off your hair and cloths use water if you can just get it off you...... also seal of the shelter the best you can from the outside dust like vents etc.



It will take the government response to fully deploy 48 to 72 hours lets face it you wouldn't send in life saving responder until 24 hour for two big reasons first the responder lives and ability to do there job second in 24 hours those who wouldn't make it no matter what will have died . the resource's can be used on those who have a chance on making i know that sound evil .... its just a sad fact. fallout will build up out side which will increase radiation penetration of you shelters shielding remember you may not get rescued until 72 hours or longer.


Remember if you shelter in in the effected area rescue team getting you out of there and sending you to a Decontamination area and then treated for radiation sickness will be the only thing to save your life. The other problem will be water , food and injury's cuts, burns. as you are waiting for rescue water heater good source for water .sinks etc .water is a must . SO in closing if you live through the blast remember distance,shielding, time...........if you can get away from area before fallout do it if not shelter in with as much shielding as you can find .......make it easy for responders to find you so you can be rescue in the time you need to survive through the event.

loose lips sink ships


　

This story is of a worse case CBRNE event scenario and is about a man named Bob


Bob is a active prepper and doesn't care who knows about it and is open to the town he lives in about he's prepper life. He is a active blogger on survival (prepper) forums for years he post pictures of he's bug out location(BOL) and the supply's he has there he's very proud of what he has done for himself and he's family. All he's neighbors see the food supply and other supply that get shipped to he's house. On the forums he talk about how he's only 30 minutes away from his bug out location...and again proudly post pictures of he's food supply's ,weapons, etc.



Well on Monday night CNN lead story is on a outbreak of a flu on the east coast, the forums are alive with chatter and Bob again makes comment how he prepared and ready for a possible epidemic. On Tuesday night there 100 death reported CNN and other news networks are a buzz with the worse case scenario's and the fast spread of the outbreak .


Wednesday at noon the President breaks all T.V. programing and tells the people there is a epidemic CBRNE event and calls for people to stay in there homes and take preventive measures to prevent spread of contagious contact he says to the public all federal building are closed public schools closed all aircraft are grounded . Theres a full deployment of the CDC, FEMA,WMD-ITS ( Weapons of Mass Destruction-Incident Support Team) and SMART (Special Medical Augmentation teams) remind the nation to be calm and stay home for more news and updates.


One hour after hes address to the nation the new death toll is reported on the news networks it over 2000 and most of the east coast is affected part of the Midwest and California.. At this time Bob takes his family to he Bug out location and seals it up for the Bio event......he listen to the radio and a small T.V for news and up dates.....needless to say the nation's public is in full panic. Thursday morning the President speaks again and enacts emergency for the nation puts in a martial law and curfew laws he tell the nation all the military are on call up all national guard unit are activated he then has the head of CDC tell the people on how best to protect there family homes and protect there family. The new death toll is 5000 .



After hearing this Bob tells his family there safe and can hold out for a year....CNN reports only 25% of the National Guard personal have reported most soldiers are staying home to protect and be with their familys and the same for most of the nations police force they to only had 25% reporting in. Now people are in complete panic mind set there looting of what little supply's there is and in Bob's town a complete breakdown of control.


Bobs neighbors look for and search Bobs home he's not there other people from he's block talk by phone and INTERNET one neighbors knew what prepper forum site he was on Bob would talk about it so he looked at all the post pictures that bob has posted there in the last couple of years..he took notes on the supply's he seen and the weapons and ammo pictures that was posted ....so this neighbors was talking to two others about Bob forums post his supply's and the fact that people in there town are infected with the virus and they don't want to watch as there family dies in front of them so these three neighbors agree it better to find bob's Bug out location and let his family die then there's .


After careful viewing of the pictures and talks with Bob in the past and knowing he's BOL is 30 minutes away they think they know the area .So the three family's loaded what supply they had and headed for Bob bug out location area as a last ditch attempt to save there family's . About this time Bob hears on the radio the death toll is in the the 100,000 there is no more local T.V. broadcast just the emergency broadcast Bob hear one of his trip alarms go off he and his wife guard the door ...the problem is Bob sealed in he can't really see what going on on the out side ...until a camera close to he's bunker door shows four people with guns at his door he knows from there faces the people are his neighbors . They start yelling at Bob to let them in Bob says no i don't know if any of you are infected and i don't have the supply for all of you ......well within 24 hours and a blow torch they made it through Bobs bunker door after a ten minute firefight Bob was killed his wife injured they took control of his BOL .......Bob wife was there for a day but was later raped and killed...three days later all in the bunker are dead from the virus yes they did bring it with them......





There is nothing thats panics people more and breaks down order then a virus epidemic.


1. Be careful what you post on the INTERNET always remember OP SEC


2. If you do head to your Bug out location leave no clues behind destroy any thing that can help anyone find you .


3. Alway remember people will do anything to survive and keep there family's alive laws morality can disappear in a blink of a eye.


4. Never have large food supply delivered in the open have some OP SEC to this

5. Bragging and too much openness can put your family in danger

The great oil and economic collapse debate

　

　

First lets get some fact you may ask who are the biggest economy's now they are : 1. United States 2. China 3. Japan 4. India 5. Germany 6. Russia 7. Brazil 8. United Kingdom 9. France 10. Italy .

　

Then you may ask well who uses and has the most oil in the world here your answer :

the Untited States- uses 20 million barrel of oil per day we produce only 8.5 million barrel of oil per day and our oil reserves is 21.317 billion barrel we also has 28% of the worlds total coal resource and is the second in the world to natural gas resource.

China- it demand for energy is growing higher every year... it uses about 7.8 million barrels of oil a day it produces 4 million barrels of oil a day it has a oil reserves of 15 billion barrels there oil uses is expected to grow 80% by 2020 they also are third in the amount of coal resource in the world.

Japan- it is the worlds largest importer of oil it uses 5 million barrels of oil a day and has very little oil production its oil reserves is 0.044 billion after this Fukushima accident japan oil import is expected to double.

India ...this country gets little news about it oil use growth but it a giant ......it uses 4 million barrels of oil a day its oil use rate in 1980 was 643,000 barrels of oil a day now its 4 million (wow) its has very little oil production and its oil reserves are 5.625 billion barrels.

　

Russia- it uses 3 million barrels of oil a day its production is 10 million barrels of oil a day it has a oil reserves of 60 billion barrels it has the worlds largest natural gas resource and second in world total coal resource.

Germany- it uses 3 million barrels of oil a day has very little oil production its oil reserves is 12.182 billion barrels.

i could go on but i think you get the point now with nuclear energy taking a nose dive in the world population opinion, most governments will see that the world oil market is going to go up most government think strategic security first so i see alot of the world country's strategic oils reserves stocks increasing greatly in the near future. The demand of oil in key country's will go up which will hurt a unstable world oil market we have now . With the unrest in the middle east increasing, conflict in Saudi Arabia is not a matter -if ..its a matter of when not to mention Iran& Israel and and the future conflict there. With the United States economic problem now just wait till gas is 10.00 dollars - 20.00 dollars a gallon, there will be food shortages supply problem and riots and unrest from desperate people and a much higher crime rate from people stealing gas and food and supply which will cause a increase of a more police state environment to try to maintain a public control. Now you throw in any major disaster or some country wide or world wide epidemic game over man you have a collapse.

　

For those who who are ready please forgive the survival 101 comments am about to state its for those people who have a bag a rice and a gallon of water who think there ready or those who need a wake up call.












The time is now to prepare and learn skills some prep is better then none but if you are serious do as much as you can get the right kind of food and supply's with the best benefits to you and your family. Have your safe area set and know the surrounding to it. What i mean by that is know the plus and minus to that location, can it be defended ,long term water source,long term power source and of course short term power source etc.
and know your ration stock and your surplus stock. batteries,power inverters,solar panels,therm blanket,clothes,weapons,ammo,meds,medical supply,tools,fuel, etc. And the most importing of all know other survivalist family's so you can pool your resources together. You can't defend your family 24/ 7 you do need to sleep you are not Superman,Rambo or any other movie icon.

You will need the help of others if not for security then just plain day to day survival in a long term situation. You need to start now once the smoke is popped it's to late to prepare then. And learn learn learn in survival knowledge is power.The time to act is now be prepared it likely to happen.well in my opinion collapse is a very real scenario history has proved it time and time again its not a matter of if it will happen its when. Everyone should be preparing very much so in the united states.The fact are populations are rising,resources are shinking world food demand is rising,and world economic are failing.There are so many people who would be helpless if SHTF they don't have the skill set to survival which would push the society faster to a collapse, case in point no power supply, little to no food available water rations etc.for a long period of time. A family with out a skill set in survival,prepping, self and small community survival, would start to perish and fail. They would have caused more of a burden on a governmental system thats trying to maintain control and if government is overwhelmed by a mass of it population that are not prepared or with the right skill set it will fail which would finish the collapse. Those who have the right skill set would survive and start a new.




All great empires, nations,will fall history has proven that but the world has never seen a complete world economic and resource breakdown a reset is coming its just a matter of time....

cold hard facts....


　

One thing i have noticed is people are always asking about NBC mask and suits .... it's like it gives them a false sense of protection....you never here about Decontamination kits our when and how ......for some people a mask and suit is like a security blanket ...just makes you feel safer......part of the problem is movie and T.V shows in how they show people wearing and acting in a NBC event are total bull .


If you find your in a NBC event and you rush and put on your mask and run to a save area your saved just like the movies ....lol.... wrong if it was chemical , or biological , even radiological its already on your face and cloths and skin and you just brought it to you now contaminated safe area ....if you don't decon your face and the inside of your mask immediately your death is likely.........

Second myth i see is you can just run around and live in your suit and mask for weeks and still be safe....lol wrong NBC suit have a limited life in a NBC environment and liquid can easy soak threw and you got to defecate , pee, even get sick from the effect of NBC or decon, drink, eat,and sleep in your sleep it so easy to break a seal in your mask or suit and again your dead.......and that weapon you have its contaminated anything you have you bring into a safe area or a shelter can kill you if it has not gone threw Decontamination.


As for Decontamination kits the two main ones for the military are the M291 skin decon pads and the M295 equipment decon mitts....The M291 kit has 0.5% hypochlorite it is the best universal dry decontaminate in use for soldiers remember the concentration of 0.5% at an alkaline pH. Hypochlorite solutions will react to the skin and burn shouldn't not be used in abdominal wounds, in open chest wounds, on nervous tissue, or in the eye.

What if a don't have a decon kit well studies have been conducted using common household products. The goal of these studies was identification of decontaminates for civilians as well as field expedients for the soldier. Timely use of water, soap and water, or flour followed by wet tissue wipes produced results equal, nearly equal, or in some instances better than those produced by the use of Fuller's Earth, Dutch Powder, and other compounds. (Fuller's Earth and Dutch Powder are decontamination agents currently fielded by some European countries.)

Both fresh water and sea water have the capacity to remove chemical agents not only through mechanical force but also via slow hydrolysis; however, the generally low solubility and slow rate of diffusion of CW agents in water significantly limit the agent hydrolysis rate. The predominant effect of water and water/soap solutions is the physical removal or dilution of agents; however, slow hydrolysis does occur particularly with alkaline soaps. In the absence of hypochlorite solutions or other appropriate means of removing chemical agents, these methods are considered reasonable options.


If you want to feel save before buying those mask and suits read all you can on decon and get those kits ...or set up your own decon station out side of your safe area ....Rant over

 

[fireblade]

My topic is on a Biological threat from a pandemic .......First off a pandemic refers to a much larger region affected. In the most extreme case, the global population is affected by a pandemic and don't confuse it with the term epidemic which means illness or health-related issue that is showing up in more cases than would be normally expected from the illness.


Am sure most of you have heard of swine flu or bird flu which are mutating Influenza viruses. Influenza is mutating all the time in different strains the one we know are categorized as Influenza A , Influenza B almost exclusively infects humans, Influenza C viruses infects both humans and pigs, but do not infect birds this form of influenza does not cause pandemics in humans. Influenza A which is known to exist in wild aquatic birds are the natural hosts for a large variety of influenza A it is possible to get outbreaks in domestic poultry . Influenza A is labeled as Hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) Influenza A viruses are classified into subtypes based on antibody responses to HA and NA. These different types of HA and NA form the basis of the H and N distinctions. The HA subtypes go from H1 to H15.............

Example you may have heard of:

H1N1, which caused Spanish Flu in 1918 estimated deaths 100 million, and Swine Flu in 2009 estimated deaths 18,000
H1N2, endemic in humans, pigs and birds, Between December 2010 and January 2011, 19 influenza H1N2 virus isolates were identified in 6 cities in China.
H2N2, which caused Asian Flu in 1957–1958 estimated deaths 1.5 million
H3N2, which caused Hong Kong Flu in 1968 estimated deaths 1 million
H5N1, which caused Bird Flu in 2004
H7N7 2003 in the Netherlands 89 people were confirmed to have the H7N7



You may ask ok why should i care ..... well because Influenza never goes away it just keeps mutating to a less dangerous strain then to a more dangerous one the back to less dangerous the point is it always mutating. The 1918 pandemic killed 5% of the world population at that time the world population was 1.8 billion and 28% of the world population were infected. till this day none of the expert can agree were it originated from they can agree why it stopped the virus mutated extremely rapidly to a less lethal strain....which comes the phrase burns it self out......


The sad fact is the world population is raising and much of the population is living in large city's. This new generation of people in this world is a antibiotic soaked environment ,we have antibiotic soap ,hand cream , laundry soap , households sprays, its all over in are medicines we flood our body's with antibiotic for any little thing now days..... lol there was a article last week telling parents not to let dogs and cats sleep with kids or on the beds with kids it will stop germs in bed........ this antibiotic soaked environment is the reason why we are seeing antibiotic resistant viruses and antibiotic resistant bacteria appearing world wide but mainly in the United States, Europe, China, Japan.

just another rant remember information is power

The U.S. Government have greatly increased the emergency food supply's. In 2009 it was publicly known FEMA maintained a stockpile of 6 million meals mainly in MRE form. After 2009 that number is classified to the public, FEMA has bought huge number of freeze dried food off the civilian market to greatly increase the emergency food stock it is now believed that FEMA maintains 500 million to 800 million in emergency food stock. Some records have been shown and was quickly explained away as training exercise the RFI wasn't real etc.......... the facts are if a civilian company was awarded a contract for classified governmental matters it can not admit to it under contract and law, second its a common practice to remove a bid then contact company under privacy to award the contract to try to maintain secret for classified projects etc. The facts are even if you believe it was all for a training exercise and all those RFI were used for just training and just data for paper, then why was there such a huge shortage of freeze dried food for almost a year dealer, civilian customers couldn't buy any from Mountain House and others....they were out in. The last 4 months most dealer are restocked now again what caused such a huge shortage the company's says civilian demand its just a coincidence the shortage happen with the governmental training RFI etc. in the same time frame...........don't think for a moment this was just a coincidence

There has been a lot of money spent on video's by ready.gov to get the civilian public to prepare for a emergency with first aid kits and bug out bags etc. And yes there is alot of subliminal messages used in this its a common practice in alot of markets civilian or goverment.... research it you will be surprised.

Here a good example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wYyqef_33I

Did you see them ....... it starts out with a dinosaur ...asteroid-extinction event.....there is no reason for it to be there just for your subconscious mind to say asteroid-extiction event.

At 0:08 did you see the clock ... it's time is 6:11 remember the video's name world up side down .... 6: 11 upside down to your subconscious mind 9:11
again your subconscious mind to saying 9:11
