Iran makes play for space

Iran launches third domestically made Rocket into space with Observation Satelite to circle the globe every 90 minutes

Looks like they have made some leaps in rocket technology, add a nuke and what do we have on our hands.

Flumom, thanks :) Talking about Potassium Iodide...I have plenty but I think they have expired...I wonder how long after expiration they would be good for. I would hat to throw them out. If you are crazy then I'm REALLY nuts :) lol ]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 23:00:44 +0000 http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215177#215177 General Discussion : February prepping http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215176#215176 Author: FluMom

MelodyAtHome, live where you are happy none of us is guaranteed tomorrow so be very happy today. We prep so that we can live and have our children live in case TSHTF but we have to live everyday.

LOL, yep I too am worried about Israel and Iran bought Potassium Iodide pills just in case someone gets crazy with nukes. Call me nuts but I prep for everything I can!]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:51:13 +0000 http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215176#215176 General Discussion : February prepping http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215175#215175 Author: MelodyAtHome

Flumom, I'm in southwest FL...between Tampa and Ft. Myers...closer to Ft. Myers...you are right about the water table. I dont' want to invest in putting a well in since I don't know if we will live here forever or move. It's a lot of money to have one put in...there are a lot of rules/laws/inspections to be passed to put a well in.

I LOVE living here but so torn if I should be bunkered down in the mountains of the carolinas with a basement in the country...but at the same time I have to live today and enjoy today. I love the sun that we get daily, the warmth, the beaches, and more...so I'm pretty sure I'll stay in the area.

If I had the money we'd get a boat...I mentioend that in another post...just another way to bug out. I can't imagine trying to evacuate Florida by road. We have 1 way out of here pretty much and millions of people. I don't think I'd even try...

Just read Alas Babylon with my daughter(read it in high school)...takes place in central Florida during the cold war...nuclear war...excellent book. Anyway, got some ideas on survival in Florida if there was nuclear war...am a little worried about US, Israel, Iran thing going on I must say.

Annie, I had much of it in fruit since my late husband liked fruit. I just do not trust can goods that are 3-4 years old not worth the risk.

I invested in dehydrated foods in 2008 and now I am going to get freeze dry. I feel it is a better investment for me and in the future for my son. Freeze dry is good for 20-25 years and dehydrated for 15 -20 if in a cool basement like mine. From now on I will only invest in Freeze Dry. My wheat in #10 cans will go for up to 30 years. LOL, I have enough wheat to make 2 loaves of bread every week for 2 years.

Dang hope I never have to use this stuff or that my son does not have to use it.

MelodyAtHome, I lived in Fla many years ago in between Tampa and Orlando. We had plenty of water there but that was 30 years ago. Which part of Fla do you live in? The water table is usually pretty high in Fla can you have a well dug and then use sanitation tablets and a Berkey to filter?

Family on the east coast by Melbourne had a well and they used that water to water the lawn.

Just a few maybe not so good suggestions.]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:54:54 +0000 http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215172#215172 General Discussion : February prepping http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215171#215171 Author: Annie

I planted two fig trees and six pluot (60% plum-40% apricot), & two muscadynes (grapes) today! Ran short on time, still have 2 bunches of onions (25 yellow, 25 white) and 2 bunches of strawberries (25 chandler, 25 sweet charlies) to plant Saturday afternoon. I will you FluMom on the canned goods. I tried to save money buying canned, but I have had to toss so much that has gone bad (can expand). I have eaten canned veggies several years past due dates, but the canned fruit usually swells or seeps, messy. ]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:38:58 +0000 http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215171#215171 General Discussion : Our Greatest Enemy is Iran. http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27683&PID=215170#215170 Author: FluMom

Joe, if Israel attacks Iran will they Nuke or conventional weapons? I purchased Potassium Iodide tablets and have them in my stores just in case someone uses a nuke and we have fallout.

As soon as this blizzard is over I am going to get fresh water in my 5 gallon water jugs for my water cooler.

TURBOGUY...where ever you are I know God is with you and will keep you in his arms. Thank you for keeping our sorry A$$es safe!]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:38:33 +0000 http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27683&PID=215170#215170 General Discussion : February prepping http://www.avianflutalk.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=27795&PID=215169#215169 Author: MelodyAtHome

Oh Flumom what a bummer. We don't eat a lot of canned foods either so I do have a bit of freeze dried cans. I do have glass jars of pasta sauce to mix with noodles(kids like it), cans of raviolis for the boy, soup cans...we don't usually eat canned food but we have enough to last us a couple of months and longer with freeze dried. Have lots of noodles and rice which we'd eat with different type sauces I can make or have in glass jars. We have the ramen noodle soups too. Pancake mix, flour, sugar to make other things. I freeze the flour first then put them in tight plastic containers or buckets. Seems to have worked for us over the years.

My worry is not having enough water here in southwest Fl. It is going on 2 years in May since we have been here. Last year and this year I see it doesn't rain pretty much for months at a time during the winter...maybe a few drops but not much. As I mentioned before we have one rain barrel but we will get another next month so they are full of water. I'll have to fill them if we don't get any rain though lol :)
