Low-cost preparedness options involve filling empty soda bottles with water and storing them around your house or apartment. You can also fill your bath tub with water if you have advanced warning of an approaching emergency. A medium-cost solution is to purchase water storage containers and fill those in advance. You can add a few drops of plain clorox bleach to each container to discourage the growth of bacteria (for long-term storage). You'll find affordable water storage containers at www.BePrepared.com It's also a good idea to have a hand-pump water filter on hand.

Bird flu poll reveals U.S. economic collapse likely in the event of a human pandemic Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

My book, "How to Beat the Bird Flu," talks in great detail about preparedness. I review products, offer a preparedness checklist and show you exactly how to get ready for infrastructure failures. I even explain how to beat the bird flu virus, so you can greatly reduce your risk of infection and increase your chances of surviving an infection if you do get one. It's a very timely book that is already in extremely high demand. As of this writing, we are expecting to run out of printed copies within a matter of days. Of course, we'll print more, but there's always a delay in that.

Do not let this "pre-panic" opportunity for calm preparedness slip by. Stay ahead of the crowd. Beat the rush. Start preparing today, just in case. It's like insurance. You buy insurance for your car. You buy it for your house or belongings. And if you're like most people, you probably even buy insurance for your body (health insurance). Insuring yourself against infectious disease only makes sense. preparedness is cheap, but being caught unprepared can literally cost you your life.

Better Life Goods (a company I own, see full disclosure below) has just finished a large production run on an new, unique safety and preparedness tool available now at www.BetterLifeGoods.com that combines an LED flashlight, cell phone charger, AM/FM radio, seatbelt cutter, glass break tool, hazard light and siren in a compact, hand-held product that operates on either batteries or dynamo (a winding handle that generates electricity as you rotate it).

Figure five gallons of water per person, per day of preparedness. Do the math on this and you'll realize it takes a lot of space to store an adequate amount of water. (Start early.) Overall, I like the 8-in-1 Dynamo Emergency Tool, which is of course why I decided to manufacture thousands of them, import them into our fulfillment center, and offer them directly to NewsTarget readers. I carefully consider products that are important for personal health and safety, and this is one that I chose to invest some big dollars in so that we could make it available to the public.

Enhance your emergency preparedness at home, too Our 8-in-1 Dynamo Emergency Tool is useful for much more than travel safety; it's also useful at home, too, where it serves as an emergency radio, flashlight, cell phone charger and siren to help you get through tough situations that seem to be appearing with increasing frequency these days: Hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, ice storms, tsunamis, blizzards, tornados, power grid failures and even civil unrest.

Emergency preparedness is everyone's individual responsibility. It's also important to prepare before disaster strikes. Once a storm hits, or a car accident happens, or you find yourself stranded in the wilderness, it's too late to take precautions. Take action ahead of time, before you anticipate needing the emergency tools, and you'll rest easier every time you travel. Get yours now at: http://www.betterlifegoods.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=BLG%2DCAT21430 What's included, what's not This 8-in-1 tool includes everything you need to start using it right out of the box.

Most people simply don't prepare for the unexpected Overall, my observation is that most people travel without giving a single thought to safety and preparedness. It amazes me to see people on an airplane wearing flip-flops, or driving in a car without extra water, a compass, an emergency blanket and a spare flashlight. I believe that everyone should have an emergency tool in their car or when traveling by other means of transportation. Regardless of whether people get this particular tool from Better Life Goods, it's simply a wise idea to get something that protects you!

Dynamo Emergency Tool with Radio, LED Flashlight and Cell Phone Charger This dynamo-powered device is designed as an emergency preparedness tool for your car. In addition to the LED light, AM/FM radio and cell phone charger functions, it has a glass break, audible siren, and doubles as a makeshift self defense device, too. Plus, you can shine the endless LED light and listen to AM/FM radio anytime by simply winding the dynamo handle for a minute or two. Comes with five connectors for various cell phone manufacturers. The retail on this device is normally $39.

Dynamo LED Flashlight with Cell Phone Charger and AM/FM Radio (ECL-802) This pocket-sized device combines all the essential preparedness functions in a handheld unit with a clever, built-in dynamo winding handle. The LED lights are extremely bright, and the rubber grip helps you hold on to even if rain makes things slippery.

This is why a dynamo-powered radio is the best solution for emergency preparedness. By turning the dynamo handle for one minute, you can generate up to 30 minutes of radio listening time. No batteries are required, and the units are so small and portable that you can slip them into your pocket or store them in the glove box of your car. The best dynamo devices can also charge your cell phone. This lets you make outbound emergency calls when needed, even if your batteries are empty. When the electricity is out, it's crucial to have a reliable way to make a cell phone call.

In addition, we have to address global warming if for no other reason than that national security preparedness is, as I'll show, part of our critical response to this issue. These strategies have to go beyond weapons and politics. In other words, there is more to winning this war on terror and to ensuring a peaceful future founded on strength than what we see on cable news being beamed in from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Washington, D.C. We can address the war on terrorism and global warming at the same time. We have to.

Thompson, then Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services, unveiled the department's Pandemic Influenza Response and preparedness Plan, which outlines a coordinated national strategy to prepare for and respond to an influenza pandemic. "This plan will serve as our road map on how we, as a nation and as a member of the global health community, respond to the next pandemic influenza outbreak, whenever that may be," he said at the time. Recently, the US has been stockpiling flu vaccines, yet these are not likely to be of much help.

GOVERNMENT ACTION NEEDED To solve some of these problems, Blum believes that both state and federal action is needed, particularly in the areas of liability reform, reimbursement for emergency department visits, disaster and terrorist preparedness and public health education and legislation. "People tend to count on and take for granted emergency care," Blum says. "But there are a lot of problems that are facing the people who deliver that care." Dr. Stephen Epstein, an emergency physician at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, agrees. "It's like musical chairs," he says.

Bird flu spreading rapidly; U.S. government warns population Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Sadly, the near-total lack of preparedness I see at the household, community, city, state and federal levels is the most frightening thing of all. This nation, and its people, are setting themselves for absolute disaster if bird flu becomes a human pandemic. Maybe we'll all get lucky and this virus will be beaten back. But that's clearly a roll of the dice, with stakes too high to gamble with (human lives) if you ask me. Why I'm not gambling with my life I am not a gambler.

It is essential to get this book ahead of the crowd, because preparedness can't be done as a last-minute project. Bird flu is coming, says HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt Make no mistake, bird flu is coming. Just this week, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Michael Leavitt warned that the bird flu virus infecting U.S. birds was, "only a matter of time." It's unusual for the U.S. government to so blatantly acknowledge such a threat, but perhaps the reason is because Washington knows it can't possibly rescue the entire population from a pandemic.

When an outbreak is actually reported in the mainstream media, this lack of preparedness will inevitably lead to panic runs on face masks, antiviral medicines (including herbal tinctures), and even basic supplies like water and sleeping bags (to keep warm when the heat is gone). The very best antiviral medicines that I recommend in the book -- ones that are far more effective than Tamiflu at killing various viral strains -- will be rapidly sold out. During a bird flu outbreak, these will probably be selling on eBay for $250 a bottle.

Insuring yourself against infectious disease only makes sense. preparedness is cheap, but being caught unprepared can literally cost you your life. If this is all a false alarm, and bird flu never becomes contagious in humans, then you've wasted nothing, because now you're prepared for anything: Hurricanes, floods, power grid failures, tornados, earthquakes and civil unrest (LA Riots, remember?). In other words, there's no downside to preparing. But failure to prepare could literally jeopardize your life (and the safety of your family). Besides, the U.S.

Lessons of abundance: be a river, not a dam Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I will send a few thousand dollars worth of food supplies to a needy community, or I'll send emergency preparedness supplies to the American Red Cross. I'll donate money to earthquake victims, tsunami victims or people who are caught in some kind of a natural disaster. I'll donate software to groups that are doing good work and need some technology for their automation. Such acts are more important to me than collecting a lot of consumer products or things I don't really need. Heal yourself with flow In a nutshell, that is my own personal secret to abundance.

The Hurricane Katrina disaster has nothing to do with poor government preparedness and planning, it was all the fault of a "freak" storm that created a disaster nobody could have possibly predicted (although many did, years before). And when the U.S. bombs Iran in the near future (that's Iran, not Iraq, in case you're confusing the long list of countries that have been bombed by the United States), unleashing radioactive fallout upon hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, there's no doubt the White House will blame it all on Iran.
