This news story about Zombie Ants and Zombie Fungus has been making the rounds and while I am pretty sure its nothing to worry about. It shows that there are lots of strange things in this world. SO BE PREPARED.

The Department of Health report says that half the population could develop symptoms of the disease, possibly “overwhelming” hospitals and doctors as well as costing the economy £28billion, but police and the army would be unable to help as their forces would also be depleted.

It says the outbreak of a new influenza pandemic is “one of the greatest threats facing the UK” as it could not be stopped from spreading and vaccines would take months to develop.

Nuclear Power Plant Disaster In Japan

The recent nuclear power plant disaster in Japan is a reminder to all of us who live near a nuclear power plant that we need to be prepared. It also highlights the need for each us to take precautions to protect ourselves and our love ones. The slow and in some cases inept handling of this disaster just goes to prove that you can not rely on your government or a power company to protect you. Only you can protect yourself. Don't be a victim. Take charge.

Egypt Chaos - Civilians watch over neighborhoods

In order to fill the vacuum left by the withdrawal of the police. Civilians armed with guns, knives, axes, golf clubs, firebombs, metal bars and any other makeshift weapon they can find are watching over many neighborhoods. They are defending their families and homes against widespread looting and lawlessness.

On Saturday, the army sent out an appeal for citizens to help.

"The military encourages neighborhood youth to defend their property and their honor," it said in a statement.

This is again a reminder to all of us that it can happen here. Remember New Orleans?

I Can Not Get A Gun - What Can I Do?

One of the things that you will want to have on hand when the Zombie Apocalypse is upon us is a firearm. Unfortunately many people live in country's that do not allow the ownership of firearms. Fortunately their are many homemade weapons that are quite easy and cheap to make. Many of the home made weapons also have the advantage of it being legal to posses the components as long as you don't actually make the weapon. This will allow you to stockpile the materials you need with out violating the law. For example it may be illegal in some places to build a Molotov Cocktail but it is mot illegal to have gasoline, bottles and bits of cloth.

In addition to home made weapons their are also many older style weapons that it may be legal to purchase and posses in your location. Things like swords, bows, crossbows, battle axe, sling shot, and lots of others. Make sure you know the law in your location. You may laugh at the thought of defending your self with a sword or bow but with a little practice weapons like this can be very effective. And in a bad situation any weapon is better than no weapon.

The following is a list of a few homemade weapons that you can gather the components for or start thinking about how to build. I will go into more detail on how to build them later. Remember do not actually build the weapons unless you know the law in your location.

Molotov Cocktail.
Flame Thrower.
Chlorine Gas Bomb.
Hand Grenade.
Explosive Arrow.
Flaming Arrow.
Land Mines.
Blow Guns.
Air Rifles.
Home Made Firearms.

Looting Starts in Chile

Heavily populated parts of Chile still were without water service and electricity Sunday night because of Saturday's 8.8-magnitude earthquake, and reports of looting raised fears about security in some areas.

The nation's hardest-hit major city, Concepcion, declared an overnight curfew. The death count from the earthquake doubled on Sunday from a day earlier, to 708 deaths.

Desperate people scrounged for water and supplies inside empty and damaged supermarkets. On Sunday morning, authorities used tear gas and water cannons to disperse looters in some areas.
