The redundancy comes in the, "I love him, her, them and don't want to see him, her, them get hurt. Of course you don't want him, her, them getting hurt. This went on page after page, over and over until I was fighting to finish the three-book series.

I hesitated buying this book thinking it was probably written by a female. In dystopian books they have a tendency to make whiners out of the males, as is the case in this book. They also write a generic biography without saying gender. Not to say there are no good female writers, but using emotion to hide the fact very little research went into the book is a disservice to readers who expect to be entertained.

One person found this helpful. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. I had to stop many times because I got mad at characters. This trilogy was very entertaining and reasonably well written. As is the case with most of these type novels, more research could have been done in the area of specialty items These books were okay. Lots of obvious things that the author seemed to have wanted to point out and not enough character development. Story was okay but needs more work to make it seem real.

Good character development with believable mind sets. You do know that the earth actually absorbs a good bit of EMP, as well as concrete, so if your vehicles are inside of a huge mall garage, on the lowest floor, even below ground, then it has a huge chance of surviving. This is true about going shopping. After Katrina me and mother in law went shoping at a local gas station. It was flooded and there was quite a line, but we were able to get supplies that were gone by the end of the day. Alcohol, gas and cigarettes were the first to go and I was happy to pay double price for those items.

It can be dangerous on outings so they should be done immediately. As always, cash is king in any situation. Thanks for the first hand account and validation of my theory. Thanks again for the comment. There are many ways to do that but you have to set things up beforehand and try them out. I agree, redundancy is key and if there simply are no electronics one still needs to be able to communicate.

Portable, local access and battery powered. The bands cant be closed or seized by the government. It may be the only way to communicate other than a high-priced HAM rig. While I agree with other sentiments that the microwave is not the best storage device, it sure beats nothing if in the basement and sealed up tight.

I would hate to reach for the door handle and have it discharge through you and kill you. Want to bet your life on it. Just saying till we know for sure I plan to discharge my car before I touch it. An old style TV will hold enough charge to kill you even after being turned off for a month. An EMP strong enough can also fry a humans brain and you can stand there afterwords as dumb as a stick weed.

Thanks but, the main thing should be to protect your body because, an EMP can effect the human nerve system including your brain, I would hope that people would think smart about a lead shield of some sort.

See a Problem?

Lead sheets can be bought from supplyers from almost any thickness. In a couple of months from now, there will be a asteroid going to hit the surface of the sun. Do you have any more information on this event? You bunch of diluted psychopath fools!! As if there would ever be a EMP blast, you have been watching too much syfy!

Better be careful the zombie apocalypse is just around the corner! I am so sick of you doomsday nut jobs screaming the sky is falling like chicken little and of course nothing happens. One reason why I quit listening to Glenn Beck and his over sensationalized ideology of constant gloom and doom. I bet all you dooms day monkeys thought the world was ending when the year hit and stocked up on a bunch of bull crap like the dumb morons you are!

Find better uses with your time and money. Oh no lets hide in a bunker, the world is ending! Unfortunately, history ALWAYS gives us a different lesson, and civilizations collapse when Normalcy Syndrome deludes peoples into believing that their lives will never be affected for the worse, and so they are caught unawares by catastrophe, whether it be Ash from Mt. It is usually an event that occurs every 30 years or so… but you will never know what Catastrophe is coming our way or when… how many people anticipated the jihadist attack?

Furthermore peoples opinions are theirs to have, not for you to judge and seeing as your on here reading information you apparently despise just to ridicule others would suggest your the one needing to get a life. An EMP is a legitimate concern. In other words, if the sun spits out a big enough storm that hits the Earth, it literally has the potential to fry any exposed electronics. Ever hear of a blackout? Typically, a blackout happens because of an EMP! Unless your power grid has failed from human error, any and all damages to that grid come from nothing other than an electromagnetic pulse.

As defined, an electromagnetic pulse is the oversaturation of an environment with electromagnetic radiation. Not just because a zombie apocalypse is almost a nil value, but because EMP events have happened in the past. The sun rolls in 11 or 22, depending on how you look at it year cycles in which solar activity spikes and declines.

Aaron your a complete idiot!!!!! There is nothing wrong with having a few extra supplies put back, I have guns and ammo, I hunt, I fish, I hate the liberal left and I think Obama is a joke along with the rest of his cronies out to destroy this country! What I am sick of is this constant conspiratorial B. A year ago all that was heard was the the economy was going to crash in april , we will be like Greece, so be ready! People in constant fear because of you conspiracy freaks and it is pathetic! Martial law and the ramblings of a book is going to happen, really?!

I know many of the people are like sheep, but I think for the most part people of this nation would never stand for such things. I am sure you morons think zombies are real too! Get over it already, nothing is going to happen, hey if you want to blow your hard earned money on crap for an imaginary even that will never happen thinking life is like the movies, knock yourself out!

I am going concentrate on the business of living, not living in fear! So… go forth and prosper then. Happy trails, best wishes, peace be with you, etc, etc…. Let me see if I can provide some input. First I am a retired fire captain,and worked helping save lives and families in all kinds of disasters. Today people on the planet face dangers that were not thought about 50 years ago. Many cities had underground Civil Defense systems and shelters setup for people which are still in use today. Today we have terrorists that want to kill every person that have different beliefs and will die trying to wipe out countries.

We have no idea what these nut jobs will do, But I do know if no one is prepared they die from disease,starvation,medical problems,and other things that could happen. There are millions of ways things could happen. As to the people prepping and helping others, All are basically awareness and ways to keep on going if things fall apart. Crooks Robbing people Dis honesty will rein after some type of event,and everything people talk about are good things to know and to have HOPE.

See you camp fish have guns, you might have to use them in life to live and save your self. I wish no harm to come to you and we as humans can go on and make every day better for others. You have skills which MANY do not know how to use cause they never had the chance in life to do your a super hero,use your knowledge to help other people like I do mine. The overall world is a very unstable place with the things going on today and feel that people helping others,is mans best destiny. I have done things here in case of the things that could happen as well as others. But to downgrade people as to what they think is not right.

Use what we know to help others to prepare in life thanks for reading and give people tips about the things you are good at Mark. Damn Bub…why your panties in a WAD? Go enjoy your flatscreen and Xbox and stop trolling websites that you completely disagree with.

Guys, as you know there will always be smartasses like Aaron who refuse to consider that tomorrow may not be like today. Millions Dead Within a Year. Mainly, it just brings together the kind of data that each of you would find if you did your own research and summarized it into a single location. The post s four parts covers solar and nuclear EMPs and comments from professional sources and covers those who would do us harm like North Korea and Iran. Garnet, thanks for sharing. Here is the link to the article you mentioned for anyone who needs it.

Again we must consider these threats as plausible and take appropriate action. Does that mean hiding in a bunker daily? I always laughed at my father who was a product of the Great Depression. His pantry was one to be envious of. Now, 7 years after he is gone…. I laugh at myself in the mirror. The world is such a pleasant place to be right now. Honey dripped grilled peaches with ice cream melting over them….

Bout to have another 15 million Dream Act democratic voters that will require assistance. We still allow questionable characters to attend flight school. We approved the funding for a border fence — aint done yet. China just purchased our largest pork producer along with other infrastructure projects. They will eventually have a middle class that is million strong wonder who will have priority in bacon?

So, its fairly simple to acquire 1 years worth of beans, rice, flour…store some water, have some bulk supplies of all kinds on hand just in case. If you are a husband and father who is responsible for the well being of your family and community then get some insurance as stated above. Disasters come in all flavors. Be prepared on your own with a small group of trusted friends or depend on the alphabet federal agencies for your families survival.

No need to bust chops on any group of people preparing for worst case scenarios. One main thing seems to be missing. They have also lost all their lifestyle. How to recover your lost lifestyle? Or never lose it in the first place? Just wrap everything in aluminum foil. Can I use my galvanized metal trash can to protect electronics from EMP? Is it ok to have it in the house, do I have to ground that, and how would I do that?

Just a word to stimulate some conversation. I have heard that after the Cold War the Soviet Union did an inventory of their nukes and came up short, ie. Just wondering where they are? Also can we predict when an enemy might try to hit us with an EMP? I would say when it would be the most disruptive to the US. After 9 am Pacific time and before 3 pm Eastern time on a school day.

Kids would still be at school and parents at work. Now what time of the year. To inflict the most pain, at the beginning of winter. And to cause the greatest confusion just before a national election or just before a new President is sworn in. What are your thoughts? All we can do is prepare if it goes down…you got what you got. East coast should have the politicians crapping their pants. Essentially, the threat is being dismissed, kind of like the threat of EMP.

When I first heard this story, it bothered me for many reasons and when you lay it all out there, I would say it increases the chance of an EMP. Iran is developing nuclear weapons they may already possess some that could have been acquired from Russia or North Korea. They have the capability to put a barge off the coast of the U. Well, duh, do they really need it if they can park a barge right next door? EMP levels the playing field for them. Wildcard is North Korea could easily do the same on the West Coast.

They are not easily maintained, we had techs who received special training to ensure they were fully capable of doing their advertised service. To those who poo poo this, well, it is like the proverbial ostrich with its head in the sand, we will always have those types. To Aaron, I understand your feelings. You can not stop living your life because you fear something will happen.

These products I bought are the very same ones my family uses in every day living. My only possible loss is the money for the shelves and for my water filter. I went the extre mile because clean water will become ones of our most valuable resources. My concern, it will cost the Government 3 billion to shield the major power grids of our Country against an EMP but yet after attempts in Congress to get it done as of we our still unprotected. If an airburst weapon were used to create this EMP, would fallout from the initial blast contaminate streams, rivers, ponds and other exposed surfaces as it settled to the ground?

Would we need to take that into account and not collect rainwater for drinking or watering plants until the fallout has washed to the ground? Do I have enough. I have no idea who I might have to take care of in our families. I know we can use one up in one winter heating with wood so I plan to get several and try to store them.

Any suggestions on best way to store them to prevent as much rust as possible? I appreciate your website and enjoy reading your articles, but I feel this one is extremely dangerous to preppers, probably deadly. This is a philosophy put forth to ease the minds of people not able to afford a fully off grid rural retreat. But your not helping them by making them feel secure in their community.

If you go this route, yes, you may become leader for a time. You will either give over your food or die defending it. At that point, you starve to death through the first winter just like everyone else in your little community. Fortifying your suburban home, apartment, or neighborhood is an absolute death sentence! I realize hat this is a very risky and uncomfortable situation for most people, but at least you have a chance.

So, let me get this straight. In your opinion, post EMP everyone should just start walking 50 to miles to a storage locker, because more than likely their car is not going to be running? Then, they are supposed to latch onto an elderly farmer and trade work for room and board? Neither are going to be very realistic options for most.

While I do agree with you that leaving the city behind and bugging out to a very rural, off grid retreat would be the best option for almost anyone. The simple fact of life is, there are many more that cannot afford even part of this option and their only option may be to stay in place. I admit, it may not even be close to ideal but being prepared to bug in is going to put anyone who does it in a better situation than throwing up their hands and doing nothing. Most homes over concealment, not cover. Sheetrock cannot protect you. Even if you fortify the exterior, they can eventually just burn you out.

At least have a plan to withdraw to for when you begin to lose control. Hollerman, I basically agree with you. Is it just a big target. However, I think staying in a neighborhood full of non-preppers is unfeasible. I and a few friends have a remote location we use for our pre-staging area. After the SHTF, we just have to walk there with out families.

The few days after this will be invaluable for getting out of dodge very early. Couple of good suggestions. A very cheap way to pre-stage some is to buy a cheap intex above ground pool. Couple that with a life straw or other sanitation methods and that is a literal life saver.

Words that start with emp

If possible, carry a mountain bike with you. I have a truck and have a cheap bike that I carry around. It will make that trip home from work or wherever a LOT quicker. Modern shoes are not designed to last very long. They are geared toward aesthetics, not durability. I pray whatever is coming is not an EMP.

If it is, the author was not joking about those first few days. It will take a few days or up to a week for most people to realize things have changed, possibly forever. Many people will never wake up. They are suited for this world, not the one that is coming. That said, the criminals will be the first to wake up. Great points on the boots and the bicycle. I try to pick up an extra case of water at the store and keep to my personal commitment of grabbing one prepping item big or small per pay check.

Over time our basement stash is looking pretty nice. I will admit the EMP scenario seems incredibly possible to me and something that would really through people into the frying pan. I guess that was my long-winded way of saying thanks for this article! Also, that farm will be just as likely if not more so to be overrun by hordes of looters!

Personally, I think that reinforcing your main dwelling in non-obvious ways such as placing a layer of sandbags after EMP strike of course along your walls up to the bottom of your windows will provide some protection from small arms fire. And replacing your roof with a metal non-combustable one to make it more difficult to use fire as a weapon against you. Laminating the glass panes inside and out will make them much securer and help keep broken glass from littering your floors. Planting un-friendly plants like Yucca at the base of your windows will also discourage unwanted visitors.

And one well-placed shooter could deny you access to that water! HIDE your preps inside as much as possible, and then in small unmarked caches, like in 5-gallon buckets about a foot underground scattered at seemingly random locations! Good Luck and Happy Prepping! How bad do you want to live? It all sounds good, but is not possible to do it all. Do ALL you can afford, keep calm, keep quiet about what you have, be smart, and pray a lot, seriously.

I bugged out 14 months ago and now live in the Pac NW near water on my own acres of land. I grow animals and food. I have a giant emp box with eveything in it. I have quadruple backups for everything. I have years of supplies. I thought my other post was the worst advice you have read? Cmon man, make up your mind. Please also post the link to your blog where you offer sage wisdom to all of us. Or maybe you are just a troll? I guess the rest of us who live near the city are just gonna be toast. Especially if we have 5 kids and some elderly parents who depend on us. I know how to knit and sew, and can garden and can and dehydrate.

God save us all. All you are saying sounds great… but even these actions and provisions will be of no use after a while… and all food and water will be consumed… especially if shared with neighbors. At the moment of an EMP you and your family should meet at home then go by bike to a near by… but far enough from the city… country retreat cabin or tent with water well… or stream… including a garden, fruit trees and root cellar for storing food without needing electricity.

Also learn beforehand about wild edible plants you can start eating immediately. Live like the American Indians off the land.

Editorial Reviews

Get a book with pictures of all the wild edibles in your area which will greatly help. When you reach your EMP refuse home… you have made it. Only share this information with those you would like to join you if they have no place to go but ask them not to tell others about it… for this could definitely endanger the life of your family. Start reading up now on how to live successfully in the Country. If you have neighbors that seem friendly and trustworthy eventually get to know them.

Bartering will be a way of survival too. For example… you could trade a bag of new socks for a bag of seed or oil or what ever need you may have. Any material thing could be traded… if you could spare it… if not then keep it. Take the trip to the country on your bikes… a few times just to experience it. This will help if the this horrible thing ever happens. But you never know. This way you will not panic but you will have a plan.

Then all you do is just do it. Also make sure you have enough ways to store food and keep it cool… like having a root cellar. There are books and videos on how to build one. If you have near a stream or lake… take fishing equipment. It may take about a year to plan, build, stock and prepare a place of refuge… so get started as soon as you can. First talk with your family.

Everyone must be on board… and must help by doing their part. Maybe one cooks well… another gardens well… another organizes well… etc. It will just look like you are taking a bike trip for the day… or traveling to visit another family member. Remeber… God loves you. He sent His Only begotten son for you. We must all repent and believe the Gospel. Number one importance… getting closer to God! Read the Bible daily to your family. Pray at every meal. Help those in need. Be filled with the Holy Spirit. The Bible tells us that God directs our paths.

He will direct you every step of the way. Fear not for God He is with you… even to the very end of the age! One of the most important pieces of equipment I have is a previous generation iPad. Additionally, I have hundreds of books, both fiction and non-fiction like survival manuals, cookbooks, gardening books, woodworking, DIY, and other related material in PDF or Kindle Book forms.

It is my reference library and document storage system…. I am assured with this system that in the event of a total grid-down situation, my family will always have its most important records, photos digital also on an external 2TB drive and reading material, both for entertainment and survival, close at hand. You might want to consider backing up all that stuff to a SD card. I am converting all my documents so I can access them on a SD card rather than keep them in iPad ram.

You can slip the SD card in your wallet and carry volumes of books with you. I have read all the various posts on what people believe the effects of an EMP will cause to those who bug in and bug out. Since most, myself included do not have the luxury of a secure bugout cabin deep in the woods, we must make do with what we have. Even in a small community such as I moved to many years ago, there will be problems. There is a total population of about people.

It sounds great until you realize that most of these people are deer hunters and nearly all have weapons in their homes. If you couple that to the fact that they are not likely to be preppers, you could be having an OK Corral moment on your hands on a regular basis. So what to do? If an EMP were to hit, I would immediately contact a few trusted neighbors and form a defense group for our little neighborhood.

I know its not the best option but it is all we will have. Fortunately, we are surrounded by farms that grow feed corn…not ideal but edible. So, if we can keep the people from killing each other we may form some semblance of a future society. Knowing that they will fill me in on any problems that may arise is priceless.

Loved the scenario at the beginning.

Words that start with emp | Words starting with emp

This could be applicable in any situation where the power goes out or access to food supply chain suddenly goes down. I should also look into getting an EMP box with some essentials store in it, like a solar panel, spare batteries and flashlights etc. I have 5 kids and an elderly mom, and elderly uncle. They all rely on me. I do as much as I can to prep.

But just the amount of toilet paper or phone books and adult diapers needed, is gonna be enough to make me keel over if an EMP ever happened. I guess I will pray it never does. For some people like myself, there is just not any way at all, that I could prep for 5 kids, 2 elderly, and myself.

Oh yes my husband too. We have tons of skills, and some supplies, but God save us, we are not rich and could there be any way at all that our lives would be seen as valuable to those of you who are rich and have excess stored? Maybe a good pepper strategy would be to think of who exactly among the less — fortunate you would choose to share with. Because Jesus does expect us to share with the less fortunate. We are trying, but, with a moving target date, and changing needs, is anyone every DONE prepping?

I do have half a dozen forged steel shovels, to dig some graves when the time comes. Will any of you dug my grave, or will you just shoot me and leave me? Lordy Lordy, I had an idea of what i wanted my family and I to do if an emp actually did hit. Now I am more confused than ever after reading all of these comments. Should I stay or should I go?

Should I share or should I keep it all for my family? Do I arm myself or not? Should i mingle with people or should I keep to myself? It would be really, really scary and tough for people who did nothing to prepare for an event of this magnitude. My guess is even good people would turn into criminals and all the while thinking that their crimes are justified because it is keeping their families alive and safe, even if it is for just one more day.

Knowing God is the best way to prepare for this. Fact is, an event like an emp is a way you can get your heart right with him. That thought in your mind that there actually might be a Creator is actually God himself giving you another chance to turn to him. When you dismiss that thought you are actually hardening your heart to him and it becomes more and more difficult to keep getting that thought. He doesnt want anyone to perish, honest. Have a great day folks. Putting the radio in the microwave in the basement will NOT work.
