LifeStraw Personal Water Filter

I stumbled on these and can't say enough about the quality and efficiency.
Part of the proceeds of the sales of these go to developing countries and disaster areas worldwide.

Life Straw can filter up to 1000 litres of water and  removes 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria and 99.9% of parasites.
Water that is drawn up through the straw first passes through hollow fibers that filter water particles using only physical filtration methods and no chemicals.The entire process is powered by suction, similar to using a conventional drinking straw, and filters up to 1000 liters of water. LifeStraw removes a minimum of 99.9% of waterborne protozoan parasites including giardia and cryptosporidium.

Preppers Are Now Considered To Be Potential Terrorists? - Update

Look out for these ladies.  Pretty Rough Crowd.

UPDATE: 31.10.2012

Preppers Are Now Considered To Be Potential Terrorists? - Madtown Preppers 3.26.12


We have had some feedback and questions in regard to the govt. infiltrating FB groups, websites, and purchasing patterns of Preppers.  This is real.  I am on a few groups and blogs for Preppers (most are quite informative if you can dig through the speculation and conspiracy).  I have seen and experienced myself being "watched" or "hacked".  Part of the reason why the punks in Chicago got caught is due to a partnering with a police liaison (that makes them idiots). Ref: chicago-nato-update-molotov-cocktail - Madtown Preppers 5.19.12

For the record, 98% of the people that I actually deal with (via this site, trades, FB, work), are down to earth hard workers, positive people with 1 major Goal: Survival for Themselves, Their Family and Loved Ones.  They seek information that is guaranteed by our Constitution and many Wars/Conflicts to defend Her.
That being said, the govt also has 1 major Goal: Survival for Themselves, Their Partners and People with Power sic Money.

Build the Perfect Bug Out Bag - Work in Progress

I know, I know, everybody has an opinion on the size, shape, contents, color, smell, logo, brand, zipper holder specs, degree of invisibility, Whatever on their Bug Out Bags.

 To me, the BOB should be like a good evolving tool.  What goes on, around, in, and about your BOB is your own decision based on your personal style, needs, and critical situation that you are planning for.  I like to post about innovations and examples of BOB's b/c most people are confused about how to build their BOB from information overload.  As a typical American, we wait until the last minute to get that Last Thing you need before TEOTWAKI/TSHTF.  It has become over-commercialized with the onset of Doomsday Preppers TV show and just individuals who take advantage of a Fool and His Money.

There are basics to a BOB that are consistent:

A Well Planned Extensive BOB - Not Light!

• Size/Weight: How long and How Far are you going w/o being near supplies/shelter?
• Contents: Probably the most important part of the BOB. Same principles as above.  Do you really need 3 machetes? Smoke Bombs, Really?  Carry that shit for 10 days/30 miles on foot and let me know.
• Versatility: How many different uses can you get from your BOB?  Does it have multi-use capabilities?
• Cost: ALICE Pack and some Garage Sale finds - or - The Executive/Custom/Mass-Produced Crap?
• E-Bay: Much more legitimate than you think.  Many businesses and individuals are actually there to help you.  It's true.  I do it.

I am posting some reference links and examples for review.  Please reply or post your own.  Join Madtown Preppers by subscribing to this site below or I will also post on FB: Madtown Preppers

Again, your BOB is one thing: Yours, ever evolving and changing based on personal situational needs and resources.

Chicago NATO Update: Quiet Compared to NATO Conference History

I haven't heard much out of the ordinary other than the usual NATO protests that hit every city they attend.

Obama is in town and the protests are reported to be starting at Grant Park and to include a Veteran's Medal protest.

Solar Eclipse Today - Best Viewed Asia/Western US

INTERPLANETARY SHOCK WAVE: An interpanetary shock wave possibly associated with the M5-class solar flare of May 17th swept past Earth on May 20th around 0200 UT. The shock's arrival caused geomagnetic activity around the poles, but so far no reports of high-latitude auroras.

SOLAR ECLIPSE THIS WEEKEND: On Sunday, May 20th, the Moon will pass in front of the Sun, producing an annular solar eclipse visible across the Pacific side of Earth. The path of annularity, where the sun will appear to be a "ring of fire," stretches from China and Japan to the middle of North America:

Image credits (left to right): Hans Coeckelberghs, Fred Espenak, Dennis Mammana

An animated eclipse map prepared by Larry Koehn of ShadowandSubstance.com shows the best times to look. In the United States, the eclipse begins at 5:30 pm PDT and lasts for two hours. Around 6:30 pm PDT, the afternoon sun will become a luminous ring in places such as Medford, Oregon; Chico, California; Reno, Nevada; St. George, Utah; Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Lubbock, Texas. Outside the narrow center line, the eclipse will be partial. Observers almost everywhere west of the Mississippi will see a crescent-shaped sun as the Moon passes by off-center.

Because this is not a total eclipse, some portion of the sun will always be exposed. To prevent eye damage, use eclipse glasses, a safely-filtered telescope, or a solar projector to observe the eclipse. You can make a handy solar projector by criss-crossing your fingers waffle-style. Rays of light beaming through the gaps will have the same shape as the eclipsed sun. Or look on the ground beneath leafy trees for crescent-shaped sunbeams and rings of light.

VENUS TRANSFORMED: Something special is happening to Venus in the evening sky. The second planet is diving toward the sun for a much-anticipated transit on June 5-6. As Venus turns its night side toward Earth, the planet is transforming into a beautifully slender and colorful crescent:

John Chumack of Dayton, Ohio, took the picture on May 14th using a 10-inch telescope. "I was blown away by the sight of Venus," he says. "The planet was 14% illuminated, 47 arcseconds in diameter, and blazing at -4.43 magnitude."

The crescent shape of Venus is easy to see in good binoculars or small telescopes. No special observing experience is required. Just find Venus in the western sky after sunset (you can't miss it), point and look. A good tripod to hold the optics steady is recommended.

As the evening wears on and Venus sinks toward the horizon, the refractive effect of Earth's atmosphere splits the crescent into the colors of the rainbow. Kevin R. Witman of Cochranville, Pennsylvania, observed the phenomenon on May 11th: "Earth's atmospheric refraction of Venus's ample light made a beautiful image through my 10-inch telescope."

Chicago NATO Update: Molotov Cocktail Plot?

Haven't heard much happening on the wire, through the grapevine or whatever here in Madison.
That being said, we have UW Graduation this w/e and that throws a loop in everything.  Our place was packed with coasties man (with money)

As far as I know, Chi-Town just has a bunch of Occupy types millin' about.

Some buzz about mole feds in the crowds are surfacing as well as Iraq War Vets turning in their medals on Sunday.  Don't know.

Oh, and this Just IN:

Tabasco Mini Bottles - Used to Be in MRE's

Tabasco is great for adding a little flavor to your least favorite MRE (Highly sought after in the field), some wild edible's or maybe some wild game that might not be your favorite. It's a great addition to your camping gear, novelty gift or emergency survival kit.

These are the same size hot sauce that are in the MRE's, Meals Ready to Eat. They are also great for Bug Out Bags or just your fanny pack or backpack or even your pocket to add to any meal.

• In an effort that will save taxpayers $700,000 a year, the folks from the Defense Department Combat Feeding Program are swapping out the bottles for small, silver pouches made from material tough enough to – as one expert said – “withstand the aggressive nature” of the sauce. Officials wouldn’t say what materials were used to make the durable pouches, but they did say that previous attempts to replace the bottles were unsuccessful because the materials didn’t hold up against the beloved hot sauce.
• If all goes as planned, the bottles, which each hold one-eighth of an ounce of Tabasco and have been a staple in MREs since 1988, will be history soon.
• These were purchased from the manufacturer, NOT recycled from old kits or supplies

Solar Activity Update: Sunspot 1476 RADIATION STORM UNDERWAY

AR1476 Paris VegaStar Carpentier: "Shooting from the Bridge of Concorde, I captured the sunspot setting behind the Eiffel Tower," says photographer VegaStar Carpentier. 12.5.2012

RADIATION STORM UNDERWAY: Energetic solar protons are swirling around Earth following an M5-class solar flare from departing sunspot 1476. The sunspot erupted on May 17th around 0130 UT. This radiation storm ranks S2 on NOAA storm scales, which means it is a moderate event capable of confusing spacecraft imaging systems and causing 'single event upsets' in orbiting electronics..

On Sunday, May 20th, the Moon will pass in front of the Sun, producing an annular solar eclipse visible across the Pacific side of Earth. The path of annularity, where the sun will appear to be a "ring of fire" stretches from China and Japan to the middle of North America:

INCOMING CME? A coronal mass ejection (CME) that flew off the sun's western limb on May 17th might hit Earth after all. NOAA forecasters say a shock wave from the blast could deliver a glancing blow to Earth's magnetic field on May 18th or 19th. The CME, pictured below, was propelled by an M5-class solar flare from departing sunspot AR1476

Just Discovered - FEMA Field Manual for US Detainees - FM 39.4

I've heard about the evidence of docs being out there that show our "boys" are getting prepared to "help" us on a LARGE scale.  Most of my experience with this search has been slim at best.  Usually I stray away from info that comes from extreme conspiracy theorists (Nick Jones, Prison Planet, 98% of Youtube).  I was directed by another Truth Seeker for FM's for pretty much anything.  I went to the site, clicked on the link to the FM for detainees and internment camps.  Well, let's just say that my mozilla firewall is pretty good, I think the pop-up from mozilla was like "Are you sure you want to this? Dumbass?".  I've never gotten offline faster.

Well, here's what someone posted on Doomday Preppers FB:
