"Preparing for the Worst" Book: Family Emergency Planning

You may be familiar with this Emergency Alert System tone from routine television and radio broadcast tests but have you considered what you would do if it was the real thing? Last year, over 30,000 people lost their lives in natural and man-made disasters. The year before, that number reached almost 100,000. Americans are regularly bombarded with tragic reports in the daily news. Catastrophes like earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, violent crimes, and terrorism are so common and routine that many of us are numb to the stories. My name is Jay Jones; I am a Marine Corps veteran of Desert Storm, an active volunteer with my local Community Emergency Response Team, a devoted husband and concerned father of three young children, and a published author. I asked myself how I would handle a disastrous event close to home and I came to realize that a comprehensive "how-to" guide was not available for families like mine—so I drew upon my experience and wrote "Preparing for the Worst: A Comprehensive Guide to Protecting Your Family from Terrorist Attacks, Natural Disasters, and Other Catastrophes." Do you know what you should do to protect your family during a disaster? Are you ready with a Family Emergency Communications Plan and a "grab-and-go" Disaster Kit? Would your family know what to do in the first critical minutes if emergency management officials directed you to "shelter in place?" Could your neighbor survive a catastrophic event? Preparing for the Worst details best practices in antiterrorism tactics and preparing for disaster. Rest assured that my book is not about creating an environment of fear. It just makes sense to prepare your family for the unexpected using a good comprehensive reference guide. Look for my book, Preparing for the Worst: A Comprehensive Guide to Protecting Your Family published by Praeger Security International at your local library, ask for it at your favorite bookstore, or search by ISBN number 027599631X to order it Online at www.Amazon.com, www.BarnesandNoble.com, www.Borders.com, www.Target.com, or www.WalMart.com.

Good video. Can you review the Katadyn Survivor? Makes fresh water from ocean or brackish or chemically tainted water. How does it work? Is there a DIY alternative?

Fresh water source isn't an option sometimes near the ocean (or source that can't be simply filtered). A distiller needs takes too long. The Katadyn Survivor pump can produce 35 gallons of fresh water a day. Also removes dissolved chemicals, nerve agents, viruses, bacteria etc.

Your right bootycall97. This guy in the video is saying.

"Would your family know what to do in the first critical minutes if emergency management officials directed you to shelter in place". The people that are stupid and go to management officials to direct them to a shelter will be most likely killed.

"shelter in place = FEMA DEATH CAMP"

People that know not to go ANYWERE FEMA tells them to go will have a better chance to survive in a emergency . Sheeple.. WAKE UP or be ROUNDED UP.
