If Norman Ollestad’s story got you thinking about what you’d need in a do-or-die survival situation, the Paracord Watch Strap might be for you. Gear Patrol has covered Paracord products before (wrapped around Jon’s KA Bar Becker Tool and Dan’s Ultimate Survival Kit ) but the Survival Straps Watch Strap is likely one of this writer’s favorite executions. The strap is made of several feet of Paracord that can easily unwind and deploy for emergencies. No, it’s not as versatile as the 24

by Art Basmajian It’s not hard to learn to blog like a pro - uploading pictures, editing, changing ’skins’, and profile designs. I learned to do it in less than a day, and everything I needed were either already on the Internet, or I could at least find a way to get it from there. Everything except how to get people to see my blog, that is. It’s a lot like building a 5-star resort hotel in the middle of paradise, and I forgot to build the roads to get there. Paving the Way Midway t

by Art BasmajianAlmost anyone who can get online can blog, and almost anyone who can blog will likely do so. In fact, in less than a week, I could create pages with the best of them. After uploading all the files and what I imagined were earthshaking points I had to make, I realized I had a problem. No one was interested. It’s not that I was spouting nonsense (I’ve seen worse on other blogs); it was simply like I had a party but forgot to send out the invitations. You are Cordially Invited It wa

Sky Meadows Sky Meadows. The name itself makes me think of rolling pastures, wildflowers, birds, and butterflies, all under puffy white clouds and a deep blue sky. But maybe that’s because I’ve been there. This humble Virginia state park is close to the city, just over an hour’s drive west from DC.

filed in Travel on Jul.30, 2009One guy had reached his limit.We’d been hiking and foraging for three days as part of a weeklong wilderness survival course. We had dug up bitterroot and caught a rattlesnake, making a pot of stew the night before which we passed around like an oversized beer mug. We had munched on wax currants and other edibles. But the calories weren’t making up for the hiking, nor the bone-chilling nights for which we had nothing more than an Army poncho thrown over all the clo

Now back home in Dubai I was reflecting on who impressed me most at the Agora Financial symposium in Vancouver, Canada last week. It was a packed program and there were many investment ideas and individuals from whom to choose.Step forward Ross Beaty, the founder of Magma Energy, a new geothermal energy company. What caught my attention is that Ross also founded Pan American Silver in 1994, now the world’s second largest silver producer. Selling and buyingHe then moved on to copper exploration a

We rarely think about bad things to happen to us. Not a lot of people know what to do in case of some disaster. Even less people have emergency plan or survival kit. Most of us hope we never have to experience something like this. But it is always better to be ready for worse. I am sure people who survived such terrible natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina or others will never live unprepared. Unfortunately such disasters come unexpected and break lives of thousands of people. So it won’t hu
