How Lock Picking Works" - StumbleUpon

Most people carry five to 10 keys with them whenever they go out. On your key ring you might have several keys for the house, one or two more for the car and a few for the office or a friend's house. Your key ring is a clear demonstration of just how ubiquitous lock technology is: You probably interact with locks dozens of times every week. The main reason we use locks everywhere is that they provide us with a sense of security. But in movies and on television , spies , detectives and burglars can open a lock very easily, sometimes using only a couple of paper clips. This is a sobering thought, to say the least: Is it really possible for someone to open a lock so easily?

How to Make a Bug Out Bag | The Art of Manliness - StumbleUpon

Editor’s note: This is a guest post from Creek Stewart of Willow Haven Outdoor. The term ‘Bugging Out’ refers to the decision to abandon your home due to an unexpected emergency situation–whether a natural disaster or one caused by man. A ‘Bug Out Bag’ is a pre-prepared survival kit designed to sustain you through the journey to your destination once you’ve decided to ‘Bug Out’ in the event of an emergency evacuation. Typically, the Bug Out Bag (BOB) is a self-contained kit designed to get you through at least 72 hours.

This is your prep list for the How To Survive The Apocalypse..for just 72 hours. Our goal is just to get you to First Base---a grab and go kit that will take care of you for the first three days. Why do all earthquake prep kits say to plan for that amount of time? Think about it like this: even without an earthquake, if RIGHT NOW the National Guard was ordered to assemble materials and deliver food/medicine/water/health care to the City of San Francisco, it would take them AT LEAST three days to get that together. It just takes time to pull out the stuff, load the trucks, decide where to go, get set up, etc etc. And in an earthquake of any size, likely SFO, OAK, and the Bay Bridge will be out of operation.

The Definitive Guide to Parkour For Beginners | Nerd Fitness

This is a guest post from NF community member Dakao, who trains in all kinds of awesomely nerdy things like weapon making, martial arts, and parkour. I’m fascinated with the concept of parkour but haven’t tried it yet, so I asked Dakao to put together a guide for people who want to get started but don’t know how. Take it away Dakao! Train with conviction and intelligence: parkour’s emphasis on awareness of your environment and circumstances, as well as performance under pressure, requires as much of these qualities as you can muster, then challenges you to dig deep down and find even more. http://nerdfitness.com/blog/2010/08/12/the-definitive-guide-to-parkour-for-beginners/

Nerd Fitness: The 20-minute hotel workout - The Next Web

http://thenextweb.com/lifehacks/2011/09/30/nerd-fitness-the-20-minute-hotel-workout/ This is the next installment in a new series on The Next Web, in partnership with Steve Kamb from Nerd Fitness . Guides to staying healthy, without giving up your geek lifestyle. During a road trip last year, I spent a night at a hotel in Richmond, Virginia. I hadn’t exercised in a few days, and had no desire to go find out if they had a gym on site…so I made up my own workout while IN the hotel room, using nothing but myself and the room’s furniture. In just 20 minutes I had warmed up, exercised my entire body, and stretched out afterward. Now, although I did this in a hotel room, it doesn’t mean it won’t work in other places, like your own bedroom for example.

Earlier this year, thousands of birds dropped dead out of the sky in Arkansas, followed by more birds randomly dying in Louisiana shortly after. Throw in to the mix 100,000 drum fish showing up dead on rivers, freak snowstorms demolishing the Southern USA, dogs and cats living together (mass hysteria!) http://thenextweb.com/lifehacks/2011/10/12/nerd-fitness-how-to-survive-a-zombie-apocalypse/

Your survival depends on your ability to create a fire easily and repeatedly. Those words are important. If it takes you a half hour to find kindling and combustibles, you don’t want to spend another cold and hungry half hour trying to bang rocks together to get a spark.
