      Get home gun

      A "get home" plan is better. Having a route plan with alternates to avoid traffic, a communications plan to indicate having reached a specific waypoint, a kit with basics: light, multitool, matches, radio, batteries, space blanket, poncho, non-perishable food, water and water purifier, basic...

      Keep A Low Profile Because Maybe FEMA Will Be Coming For Your Supplies

      Keep A Low Profile Because Maybe FEMA Will Be Coming For Your Supplies

      In a modern economy, where food and other necessities are commercially supplied on an as-needed/short-term horizon basis, there isn't much of an infrastructure or a distributed skill set that provides an alternative. If you are sitting on an acre of lawn that could be turned to grow something...

      Keep A Low Profile Because Maybe FEMA Will Be Coming For Your Supplies

      You are projecting a fairly dire emergency. Most commercial vendors will move whatever inventory they have to their retail points as long as those outlets are available, just as they do in more normal emergencies like hurricanes. In a scenario where there is widespread loss of civil order...

      Keep A Low Profile Because Maybe FEMA Will Be Coming For Your Supplies

      Security won't be from the FEMA authorities, it will be whatever local and federal law enforcement authorities can be mustered and the military, National Guard troops or Army. In this scenario, gasoline and diesel will be just as scarce, movement will be constrained by roadblocks and...

      New Rehoboth manager takes city to the cleaners!

      It seems that an actual engineering degree is not necessary to qualify for the position. An employment record as a city manager of at least four years or four years of "practical" engineering experience (they don't define this) each would also qualify. So which of these options does the new...

      Home Defense AR Optics?

      A light/laser would be better. Change the battery every 12 months. Ask yourself what would be easiest to use on awakening from a dead sleep at 0330.

      New Rehoboth manager takes city to the cleaners!

      Delaware has a relatively small population but it is growing steadily and in recent years, at an annually increasing rate (~1.6% per year.) The north part of the state is part of the northeast megalopolis, linked physically by highways and railroads and by a shared economy in the greater...

      New Rehoboth manager takes city to the cleaners!

      It appears to have a diverse economy. There is heavy industry in the north--petrochemicals, shipping, white-collar business, there is a large agricultural sector in farming and poultry production and then there is the tourism sector which has expanded to a diverse services sector and...

      Oh I wish. The deal looks pretty sweet, especially that "loan."

      New Rehoboth manager takes city to the cleaners!

      I would expect they have regular need for engineering consultation services to think this particular expertise would be necessary (as opposed to someone with a law degree, or a business degree, for example). Maybe there are enough issues with permitting or safety inspections or water/sewer/road/...

      New Rehoboth manager takes city to the cleaners!

      For that much money, it might take a suit in state court.

      New Rehoboth manager takes city to the cleaners!

      If the job search was unsuccessful and money was the issue, then there is more than one way to address that. But there appears also to be an expectation that a new hire would also be an engineer and have prior experience at a job of the same level for at least four years. They want to attract...

      I am a physician, and I was referring to hospital resident training.

      PSA - BWMC installing gun detectors

      Having trained in "these parts," violence in the E.D. is not unheard-of. Some hospitals have fully armed police and in-department lockups.

      Suggestions for a low powered, large objective rifle scope?

      You should look at the Minox line, they make 2-10x50 and 3-10x56 scopes. They cost a little more than the Meopta Optikas, but are made in Germany.

      What do i have here?

      Two canvas gun cases (obvs), probably made by Boyt, as the material and leather reinforcement are typical for their designs. The upper one is a full-length case for a shotgun, sxs or o/u. The bottom one is a "mutton leg" case for a shotgun designed to be taken apart for easier transport and...

      Look at the Meopta Optika line, they have several large objective low-power scopes.
