How to Use a [BUSTED] Cell Phone to Meet 5 Basic Survival Needs Editor’s note: This is a guest post from Creek Stewart. Last week we talked about the many survival uses of the tampon. But unless he specifically packed one in a bag or car, a man’s unlikely to have one on him in a pinch. So today we’re going to explore the survival uses of an everyday item you’re much more likely to have with you in an emergency: your cell phone. Ever leave home without your cell phone? Whether in a boat, on a plane, traveling through Africa, taking a road trip, or backpacking the Rockies, our cell phone has become a regular piece of Every Day Carry (EDC). Survival Signal Mirror Each of the cell phones I cracked open had metallic, mirror-like layers of material behind the screens. Aiming an improvised signal mirror requires a little finesse. Navigation Most speakers (if not all of them) contain a magnet. Sweep the magnet across the metal wire in the SAME direction 10 or so times. Spear Points & Cutting Tools Each cell phone also had a circuit board. And Then He Made Fire
Gulpiyuri Beach - A Stange Beach in the Middle of a Meadow Tucked away into a small inland hollow, right in the middle of a meadow, Playa de Gulpiyuri is one of the most amazing beaches in the world. We’ve certainly featured some unique places here, on Oddity Central, and even a few incredible beaches, like the hot water beach of New Zealand or California’s glass beach, but none like the beach of Gulpiyuri. Located near the charming town of Llanes, on the northern coast of Spain, Gulpiyuri Beach is unlike anything I have ever seen, or even imagined existed outside of fantasy books or fictional planets. Imagine walking over 100 meters from the sea shoreline and stumbling over a small charming beach right in the middle of a green meadow. And while you may find other beaches completely hidden from the open sea, around the world, this one is actually fully tidal and even has waves bathing the small strip of golden sand.

Moto-Mucci The 10 Best Games for Learning About the Stock Market Much like skydiving, playing the stock market is not an activity you want to learn through your mistakes. Fortunes are made and lost all the time by people who think (or thought) they had a handle on stock trading. If you have a few million you can afford to lose, or you're investing with someone else's money (you're a bank, in other words), by all means, jump right in. WeSeed:While some of the games on this list may be more concerned with purveying entertainment than education, WeSeed's No. 1 goal is to teach people about the stock market and take the fear out of investing.

Psychological Marketing Business Tactics: Big And Small Business Ideas - Psychotactics - Big and Small Business Ideas AW Extra - Mobile Miter Saw Stand - Projects This stand has everything you could want. With the wings up, it can handle 8-ft.-long boards on either side. With wings down, the stand is only 5-1/2 ft. long. You can make exact, repeatable cuts with a cursor mounted on a flip stop. Most sawdust goes through a hose connected to an onboard vacuum. Custom-fit your saw As designed, this stand should be large enough for most compound miter saws. Altering this stand to fit your saw is easy. You shouldn’t have to change the boxes’ height. The dust hood’s depth may have to be altered to fit your saw. If you have a sliding compound miter saw, you’ll probably have to increase the depth of the base cabinet, drawer boxes and dust hood.
