Survival Accessories

I was just curious about a few survival needs if ever trapped in a basement for years. I know light will be important how about some sort of super electricity generator? Just looking for some ideas for a disaster what should be kept besides food how do you keep air circulating, removal of waste at minimal power ect? Thanks

Lithium batteries in an LED type flashlight (preferably one with variable power settings like some head lamps have) will last a surprisingly long time including shelf life. I would not rely on a generator (unless manually, solar or wind operated) because fuel may be limited in a crisis. You need first aid supplies, a good (but not necessarily expensive) knife, MRE's, Water, Sleeping bags, reading material (do not underestimate the problem of boredom), map and compass of your area, 2 meter radio, candles, matches (in waterproof container), small handgun, and perhaps a backpack and tent if you decide you need to travel and get out of the area.

Series of videos I am doing for a long time friend that I care about who is just now starting to prepare. Make sure you get professional training ...

i really need help I'm going to the prime outlets and have to get some new clothes but have little clue for what to buy. I'm scene/urban.

theres a lot of different ways to have a 'scene' style. but id say the essentialls clothing wise are bright bracelets, skinny jeans, ballet flats and cute print hoodies.

I have a small bag for my jewelery, repair-sewing kit, make-up box, and hair-accessories, it's all in one. And of course I have a small travel suitcase with wheels and a hanging hook to prevent my costumes from creasing or becoming clumped up. And I always carry 3 of everything in my costumes for any mishaps, mistakes, tears not noticed, stains not seen or to replace for any other reason. As well as my props. Am I missing anything else?

That's a pretty good start. I would also suggest if you don't have this already to make sure you have a back-up copy of your music and also it should be on both tape and CD. Most restaurants and other gigs now have CD players but you occasionally you still come accross someone who only has a tape player but then theres also the possibility of the CD player not working for one reason or another. Also with CD's make sure you always use a professionally made disk or a CD+-R because CD+-RW's do not work well in older machines which are still prevalent enough to make this an issue. I would also suggest you not forget emergency health items such as feminine products in case something comes unexpectedly and some aleeve(or your prefered analgesic) for headaches, soreness, and even menstrual cramping. Also make sure you have a tweezers, if not for last minute beutification keep them in case you ever dance over broken glass or get a sliver from a wood floor (It happens!). Bandaids would also be a goood thing to have incase you ever get a small injury, they also work well to cover spots on your feet if you get blisters from your dance shoes (if you wear them). Deodorant is always something you should pack as well as perfume. That way you can reapply them just before going on to ensure you smell you best. Crazy glue or frey check are great for stopping a broken strand of beads from continuing to worsen. If you have vision problems it's always a good idea to pack spere glasses or contacts/solution. A towel to wipe your self off with is nice to have. Also, talcum powder is good to sprinkle on sweaty hands when using a prop so it does not fly out of your hands.

Personally, I find it all rather disturbing. The child for her is clearly some kind of bizarre fashion accessory, if she was so concerned for the well being of these kids then her countless airfares to and from Africa alone would surely help family's and orphanages survival. Why can she not just donate money from her vast fortune or is the 'adoption' route of randomly selecting a child better publicity for her?
Your thoughts?

What motivates people to adopt internationally?

Well in the case of normal human beings it is the overwhelming desire TO BE A PARENT. It is not a desire to rescue some "poor" child from a poverty stricken life. If you want to be charitable and help poor children then there are many other avenues to take. You donate money or time to a charity. You do not adopt a poor child because you want to "save" it. Just imagine the emotional baggage that any child will grow up with knowing that it was brought into your home as a charity case.

Prospective adoptive parents have this drummed into them throughout the selection process. It is absolutely frowned upon in the world of international adoption (the real world , not the celeb world)to specify what aged child or what sex of child you want. The psychologists will not approve you if you show a strong desire for a girl or a boy or a certain age. Your desire to be a parent must be so strong and so GENUINE that you will accept any child you are offered. It is not about shopping for a rainbow family and choosing your child´s age, sex, and colour and nationality (à la Angelina Jolie)

Madonna`s adoption of David Banda was wrong on so many levels.

All paperwork and assessment was done AFTER she went browsing through an African orphanage. (Incidentally, Malawi had no international adoption convention until she showed up with big bucks and they changed their laws to suit her.) Absolutely impossible for any normal prospective adopter. No paperwork, no kid. She chose a child with a living parent. Given that she was able to choose, (again not an option for normal people) she should have been more noble and chosen a real orphan.Why did she want him particularly, was he cuter than the rest?

Now she´s going back to Malawi.

No other country (IN THE WHOLE WORLD) with an International Adoption Programme allows adoption by people over the age of 45. MADONNA IS 50.China was the most permissive,but has tightened it´s restrictions. Single parents are not welcomed any more by the countries that once did. Madonna is single .As far as I know, no country will entertain the idea of adopting out a child to people who already have three children. Most will only allow adoption to families with no children at all or in some cases only one. Madonna already has three. In the adoption process a stable family background is prized above all else. Madonna is regularly trotting around the globe.


I have no idea what type of mother Madonna is. I do not judge her or the Jolie Pitts as parents. But I DO question that money and fame talks . At a time when virtually ALL the countries with IA programmes are cutting back on the number of children they "export" (i.e. China, Russia, Eastern bloc countries) it is sickening to see celebs do it all so easily.

I read that Katie Price wants to be part of the new trend. What psychologist would judge her right in the head with the time and money she has spent mutilating her body.

A child is for life.

Jordan buy yourself a handbag instead.
