Would you be excited to find a bunker? Furnished Nazi Bunkers Surface In Denmark, 60 Years On HOUVIG, Denmark (AFP) - With a tight grip on his flashlight, Tommy Cassoe looks like a Danish Indiana Jones as he crawls out of a bunker buried under the sand, one of 7,000 the Nazis built along Denmark's western shores to fend off an allied invasion. "Mission accomplished. The bunker is empty," Cassoe exclaims, showing off his bounty on the Krylen beach to a crowd of onlookers: rusty cans, a plastic vial containing medicine in case of a mustard gas attack, and electrical cables. This bunker and three others, entombed under the sand dunes of Houvig since 1945, were uncovered a few months ago in a violent storm, when giant waves swept away the sand, exposing glimpses of the cement and iron structures. The discovery was "a sensation" for history buffs like Cassoe and archaeologists. "What's so fantastic is that we found them completely furnished with beds, chairs, tables, communication systems and the personal effects of the soldiers who lived inside," says Jens Andersen, the curator of the Hanstholm museum that specialises in Nazi fortifications. The Nazis built some 8,000 bunkers in Denmark, 7,000 of them on the western coast. They were "emptied by the Danes of their contents after World War II to salvage the scrap iron and electrical devices that were needed." http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080803/lf_afp/denmarkgermanywwiihistoryarchaeology;_ylt=AtVjHSpHp7F1e4L2AU_RfLsDW7oF I'd be ecstatic to find something like that(cause for celebration, Bundy anyone?)
Imagine the monetary value of the stuff still inside there.

Looking for a high powered LED flashlight for the car? I am a field biologist and I need a high powered flashlight to mount inside my resestch rig for use in the field. I really like the COAST X21 but not the price. Does anyone have any recommendations as to something similar at a little lower price? Extra points if I can recharge it via the accessory outlet. Thanks! Brightguy.com has a wide range of flashlights. I'm sure you will find something which you like there.

Will the world end due to a super volcano at Yellowstone park? My friend was telling me that Yellowstone park will erupt shortly and it could be in 2012. He told the volcano is actually a few thousand years late in erupting so its definitely coming soon. His exact words were "Its going to happen, the question is when". I heard that the only way humanity can survive such an eruption is going underground. He said even if the lava doesn't kill us, the toxic gas released in the air will surely get any survivors and that there will be so much released that it will block the sun for 3 years. That means we would be underground for at least 5 years. No sun, food shortages, no animals, technology ( except petty things like flashlights which will last till about the batteries die.) so we would also die that way. When he told me this I really got freaked... I live on the east coast and he said the volcanic eruption will hit the coast within 3 to 4 hours! what? that's fair! I asked if we just moved somewhere else like Russia and he said no, it would get there too. Great. He also said super volcano's have a cycle, they happen every 65 million years. If any of you have [short] scientific data to disprove this theory or if you want to tell me what you will be doing when the eruption occurs then please comment below... huh and please say something reassuring. I really want to here what you guys will do though... in the time that any world-ending event occurs? Well, let's see...
The Yellowstone super-volcano has erupted 3 times in the last 2.1 million years - did the world end then? We are still here, so apparently not. Oh, you mean will life go extinct? Well, there is no evidence of a mass extinction event at any of the 3 prior super-eruptions, so probably not.
You can confidently tell your friend that he is wrong.
1) There is nothing special what-so-ever about the year 2012. The idea that there will somehow be a global catastrophe in that year is a hoax. http://www.2012hoax.org/ The chances of a super-eruption or any other kind of global catastrophe happening in 2012 is almost exactly the same as the chances of it happening in 2016 or 2020 or 2031 - nearly zero.
2) Volcanoes do not erupt on any kind of regular schedule. Yellowstone is neither due nor overdue for an eruption of any kind. http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/yvo/
3) There is no scientific evidence of any kind that should make anyone worry about a global-scale catastrophe. Stop worrying and tell your fear-mongering, ignorant friend to do some research and learn the facts before spreading misinformation and lies about sch things.

What are all the dangers to look out for when less than a mile from sea coast in a 18' '86Renke motorboat? What are all the dangers to look out for when traveling less than a mile from the sea coast in a 18' 1986 Renke motorboat, and what's the best way to be safe when these dangers arrive? I have no experience and am not familiar with the jargon. I do not understand what this means, but it seems important "IF THE WAVE IS GOING LEFT CUT UR BOW AT ANGLE OPPOSITE. SLICE NOT RIDE" Do I need any sort of license, or legal boat ID for when I purchase the boat? What else do I need, other than: 5 gallons of fresh water, fishing license, flares, VHS radio, fog-horn, life-vest, a compass, flashlight, wool sweaters (possibly a wet-suit?), sun-glasses?, wide-brim straw hat?, anchor?, sea-anchor, and spare rope? If the coast-guard pulls me over, what do I need to show them? What should I do if a storm starts coming towards me, and how can I tell if there's a storm coming towards me? Should I head in when I see force 5 conditions? What's the main indicator that it's getting very dangerous, and I should head in? Is it safe to speed around the coasts of NC if there is a tropical storm (like Erika & Jimena) off the coast of Puerto Rico? How are currents dangerous, and how do I look out for them? Can the currents quickly get strong for no apparent reason and pull me further out to sea with such force that my boat cannot get to land fast enough? Will I be safe as long as I can see the land with my naked eyes in Force 3 conditions? How far out am I when I can barely see land? How does one survive in an 18' boat, within visibility of the coast, if a big storm jumps up on me quickly? How does one use a sea anchor? Wont a sea-anchor limit my ability to cruise around the big waves in a storm? If I see a big wave "coming towards me" (like when I'm on the beach), should I try to steer around it? What if I'm out of gas? Will I have any control over the boat if I'm out of gas & in a storm? Do most storms typically blow over in 2 to 4 hours? If so, why is it safer to ride it out, than to try to get the boat to land? How should I land the boat if there's a storm coming and no ramp nearby? Can I just drive it straight in to the sand and release an anchor? Can I use my 45 lbs barbell for an anchor instead of a real one? Would it do basically the same job? How do I unload the boat from the trailer, or put it back in if it's just me? How far in to the water can the trailer go? Should about 1/3 of the trailer be under-water? Then I can start the motor and drive the boat out a few feet and anchor it, then park the truck and hurry back to the boat and hope that the tide has not either taken it far out or pushed it in to land? Or should I run the boat on to the beech just enough so that I can push it in to the ocean? Can I push such a heavy boat back in to the ocean if there's enough water for me to get the boat stuck in some sand in the first place? Does it matter if I enter, ride, or leave on high tide or low tide? How do I recognize a jetty? What conditions would a boat like this 18' 1986 Renken be able to withstand? Is it OK to make this trip alone? What are all of the dangers that I missed, and possible dangers, and possible things I might need, and techniques and solutions that could save my life when I run in to dangerous situations? Thank you I've read about many people who have gone out 20 miles from the coast in such small boats. I understand there is danger involved, that's why I want to learn as much as I can before I go. Is it not safer if I am closer to land, and the weather is good? Just last night I emailed a guy who went out 20 miles in such a boat in the ocean, and he said it was safe and easy. I have gone out sailing before, but it was when I was around 10 years old. I have no one to show me the ropes. I will head in if there is any indication of rough weather, but it would be helpful to me to have these questions answered here before I go. I fully intend to find a good book... and learn as much as I can. This is not a suicide mission, but neither am I going to let fear hold me back. Well, unlike a lot of people you are happy to admit that you DON"T know everything - so as far as I'm concerned you are well above the average to start with.
There is a lot to know, and don't accept the arrogance of strangers with lots more experience that somehow you are inferior or dangerous - it is precisely because you acknowledge your shortcomings that you are not. Everyone starts from a position of ignorance. Everyone is taught by patient instruction and safe practical use in a protected and safe area. Some of us just start earlier and with unbelievably competent teachers. I went to sea at 10 days of age, and was taught boat handling from the age of 5 by Cape Horners and Master Mariners - then it was expected that anyone on a boat no matter the sex or age would be as competent as possible. Today there are excellent teaching facilities staffed by qualified and licensed instructors that can teach you all that you want to know, and how to do it right. You can find these in local marinas and docks, often advertising in boating magazines and such - as well you could just ask your local Coast Guard authority for a recommendation. If you go to a marina full of live aboard inhabitants or a boating club and ask for advice on where to get good training you will get more suggestions than you'll know what to do with!
But trust me on this one - you are not a danger to yourself or anyone else when you have identified a personal lack and are actively seeking to remedy this in a sensible manner. The questions you ask are profound and need much more than a flippant reply here can give you. Books can be useful as an adjunct to practical instruction - I would again ask the Coast Guard for the recommended publications towards your initial training, as this will not confuse you with too much too soon.
Welcome to boating, I hope it becomes as enjoyable for you as it is for most of us.

show me some lyrics to a song that tells a story for fun! :D? I'll start. RFTC by Atmosphere You got a bag full of paint, a head full of brain No snow, no rain, ain't got no complaint Like you high on that Krylon running through your veins You look like a war vet staring at them trains It's like you zen the fuck out Sittin in the bushes, letting all the bugs out One smoke one beer, when the coast is clear you disappear until your zone stoned on the fear Looking at scarred box cars Focusing and notice one of the ones most fit Its like that one there, has got your name all over it So that one there, is getting your name all over it Pull a can of sky blue for the outline Sky for the limits, blue for the down time Nerves at blast, disturbing the masses of rats with these thin tips and fat caps Thinking bout your little brother, cause he been trying hit the yard with you all summer It's a good thing that you didn't bring him along Cause that's when you saw the flashlights singing this song like [Chorus (2X):] Run, run, run these yards Run, run, run don't get caught Run, run, run every piece understood (I want to tell him you were good on the foot now) Run, run, run these yards Run, run, run don't get caught Run, run, run every piece understood (Better believe you ran as fast as you could) It wasn't fast enough, a simple catch Cornered in the parking lot hiding in the trash You heard the footsteps, heart beating hard Are you gonna have to fight with a trainyard guard? You stepped out on some, yup let's start this Puffin out your chest like you wasn't in the garbage And that's when the universe stopped Cause your looking straight at a uniformed officer What you think, should you run, run And take a chance at getting some from his stunt gun That ain't one on one, plus he look kinda young The type that might beat your ass just for fun, huh So tell me what the fuck are you supposed to do Already thinking about the cuffs holding you Already got a few cases over you But then the police man says, no it's cool What, where's the punch line, can't call it Too many paint fumes, must've lost it He handed you your bag and said here, I think you dropped this Cause this cop grew up on hip hop [Chorus (2X):] Run, run, run these yards Run, run, run don't get caught Run, run, run every piece understood (It all depends on where the pieces are put) Run, run, run these yards Run, run, run don't get caught Run, run, run every piece understood (Now do your thing and make the neighborhood look good) Your turn :D Jim Stafford - Cow Patti
SOUNDTRACK (1980) - Any Which Way You Can
Lyrics:
From the badlands came the killer,
He lived by his knife and the gun.
He'd cut you just for standing
And shoot you if you tried to run.
He was as big as a tree and did what he pleased,
And everything he did was bad.
They said, if you was to kill him,
It'd only make him mad.
From the goodlands came the cowgirl,
Patti was her name.
She was hot on the trail of that killer
On a moped she called Flame,
'Cause the killer had killed her daddy
Just for spittin' in the road,
And you only had to kill her daddy once
To get that gal p.o.'d.
CHORUS:
Yippee-i-ay, Cow Patti.
Yippee-i-ay, Cow Patti.
She rode into town
To find the man
That killed her daddy.
Yippee-i-ay, Cow Patti.
The killer hit town at daybreak,
Ate the door off the local saloon.
He started to drink,
You could tell there'd be a showdown soon.
Patti hit town in a cloud of dust,
Old Flame was buzzin' like a saw,
And the whole town got quiet as a church,
When the killer stepped out for the draw.
Forty shots rang out, forty people fell.
Patti and the killer missed each other,
But they shot the town to hell.
The killer took a step toward Patti,
Said, "It's time I gunned you down",
But he slipped in something
That was laying in the street,
And was shot before he hit the ground.
Yes, the killer slipped
And it cost him his life,
And Patti said, as she raced out of town,
"You got to watch your step,
When you know the chips are down."
Yippee-i-ay, Cow Patti.
Yippee-i-ay, Cow Patti.
She rode into town
To find the man
That killed her daddy.
Yippee-i-ay, Cow Patti.

What Natural Disasters can occur where you live, how are you prepared? We're in Southern CA, By the coast south of Los Angeles (city.) So, we're susceptible to earthquakes only. We haven't had a large one in about 15 years (knock on wood) but we're kinda prepared. We've got food and water for 2 weeks, flashlights and batteries, A bag with clothes and toiletries, comfort items, camping gear if we need to evacuate, etc. Where you live? What's your disaster type? And what do you need "just in case"? How often do you ever experience the wrath of mother nature? Which state has the least amount of natural disasters? Anyone disaster free? Kitkat-Absolutely, anything that can keep you trapped at home or without utilities, etc. Jennifer- so far, Arizona sounds good!! Thanks Amber!!! I was doing just fine before those additions of yours! Well, I live in Southern Arizona. About the only natural disaster we get is simply being hotter than hell. No hurricanes, no tornados, no earthquakes, no blizzards. Occasionally, we get heavy rains with some flooding, but it only closes a road for a few hours. Nothing serious.
I do keep bottles of water in the car, stored so that they are protected from the sun. In the car, I also have a battery-powered air pump, for flats, sunscreen and a shade umbrella, just in case. And I never leave the house without my cellphone.
