Free Cell Phone Service On Android Over WIFI
Free cell phone service. Now there’s a statement that will pique anyone’s curiosity. But if you have an Android phone that can use WIFI connections, whether currently active or not, you can make and receive free phone calls and text messages. The first thing you’re going to need is a Google Voice account. Google Voice gives you a phone number that can be forwarded to one or many different phones. If the phone you’re forwarding to can handle text messages, you can forward those to it as well. If it’s a smartphone, like an Android, you can also install the Google Voice app, which can replace your voice mail, send and receive texts and so on. This is half of what you will need to get free cell phone
What do the Sirens Mean?
Tornado sirens, civil defense sirens, outdoor warning sirens, call them what you will. What to the sirens mean when they sound? What’s going on? What should I do when I hear them? Editor’s Note: If you’re reading this while hearing an Outdoor Warning Siren going off… STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND SEEK SHELTER RIGHT NOW! Your life is in danger! I’ve lived all over the country in my lifetime. I’ve lived in many different states and cities. I have yet to come across a single city that goes out of its way to inform its citizens of how to respond to outdoor warning sirens. It’s also quite rare for a city to operate them properly. You see, the original purpose of an outdoor warning siren was to warn
Re: ‘UNSURVIVABLE!’ New tornado warnings aim to scare
The National Weather Service seems to believe there is a way to fix stupid. According to this article by the AP: In a test that starts Monday, five weather service offices in Kansas and Missouri will use words such as “mass devastation,” ”unsurvivable” and “catastrophic” in a new kind of warning that’s based on the severity of a storm’s expected impact. The goal is to more effectively communicate the dangers of an approaching storm so people understand the risks they’re about to face. The problem is, not every tornado warned storm actually produces a tornado. In fact, the majority of warned storms do not. This causes the stupid in our society to become complacent and simply ignore the warnings. “We’d like to think that as soon as we say
Storm Chasers as Rockettes
I’m watching the weather today since severe storms are in the forecast. TornadoVideos.Net’s Dominator is currently in Fort Worth, getting into position as are quite a few other storm chasers. I got a good laugh looking at imap.tv, seeing the storm chasers all lined up along I-35 like Rockettes!
One More Bad Bomb Shelter
One of the things that annoys me the most in this world is the general population’s lack of knowledge when it comes to bomb shelters, fallout and radiation. For the most part, people don’t even want to know about. It scares them. Most people take the view of the ignorant woman from The Atomic Cafe who said: “I wouldn’t worry near as much about the atom bomb if it were to kill you right out. What scares me is that awful gas that deforms ya.” This statement makes me laugh uncontrollably every time I hear it. But then, I know better. Unlike the bulk of my fellow citizens, I know radiation is not some spooky gas. I know the different forms of radiation. I know the radiation types
Tiny Prefab Free Plans
Michael Janzen at Tiny House Design re-released his free Tiny Prefab plans in the wake of the recent tornado outbreak. Here’s what he had to say along with the link to download the plans… The storms raging across the eastern United States are a terrible reminder of nature’s power – and how our homes are not always up to the task of shielding us to the level we need. I imagine most folks are busy preparing for storms to hit while some are already working hard to pick up the pieces. Hang in there folks. Our prayers are with you. Back in 2009 I drew up a set of free plans for a do-it-yourself prefab shelter. The plans can help you build structures that measure 8×8, 8×12, 8×16, 8×20, etc.
