When you find yourself lost in the forest, you should be alert to the fact that there are predators and they are dangerous.
Try to fashion a spear or knife out of branches to use as protection. Among the many predators to watch out for, bears are the most dangerous (especially Grizzlies): Black Bears: If you see a black bear 50 yards away or more, then keep your distance and continue hiking always making sure to not get closer. If you happen to come across the bear and it doesn't see you, then carefully walk away and talk loudly to alert the bear to your presence.

Digging into the Value of DIY. A few days ago, I spent more than two hours dismantling and reassembling the guts of a toilet tank.
There were some issues with flushing, and I wanted to see if I could diagnose it myself (I did, actually; there was a small broken part that was simple to replace). A plumber could have done it in ten minutes and probably would have charged me $25 or $50 for the service (in our area, anyway; it would likely be more in other areas). On another recent day, I spent about four hours building a small electronic spider that could walk under its own power. I was doing this mostly so I could learn how to use Arduino (an open source electronics platform) because I intend to use it to build some animated Christmas light displays for our family and perhaps some day sell them. I earned nothing from this except my own knowledge.

Guest Post: The Not-So-Secret Skills of Great Tradesmen - DickiesStore.co.uk. At MyBuilder, we know that great tradesmen possess skills they’ve honed over many years if not decades of experience.
It could be the perfect way to paint corners of a room, how to get a great smooth finish when plastering or perfect symmetry when tiling. One skill that isn’t always honed though, or even thought much about by some tradesmen, is a major part of their customer service and that is communication – undeniably an important factor for any service provider. We’ve taken a look at some of the factors that homeowners really value – many of which good tradesmen will do naturally. It’s worth highlighting here though, as these attributes can really make the difference, in not only which tradesman gets chosen for a job, but transforming a good job into a great job. Communication is key. The UK’s leading monthly hillwalking magazine.
