Farewell 2009, and The Washington Post
This will be the last post for the Security Fix blog. Dec. 31 marks my final day at The Washington Post Company. Over the last 15 years, I’ve reported hundreds of stories for washingtonpost.com and the paper edition. I have authored more than 1,300 blog posts since we launched Security Fix back in March 2005. Dozens of investigative reports that first appeared online later were “reverse published” in the newspaper, including eight front-page stories…

Obama sends Fox News to the bunker...President Obama created history and a stir by requesting the Q&A portion before his meeting with the Republican House caucus be broadcast live. Normally this stuff is held behind closed doors. A room full of Republicans with all the slam dunk talking points they could muster lept at the chance but left the even licking their wounds. It was so bad Fox News cut from the live event early to head for their bunker. Fox's resulting spin was fast and furious.
Bunker Med - Level I FAK - My Perso...The reason for the delay posting a Level I Personal First-Aid kit review stems from a personal challenge. I am out of town currently. I purposely left my kit at home and issued myself a challenge to assemble one on the fly using the contents list. I've had my own kit for a long time. It has gone thru minor changes and updates as I rethought its capabilities. I felt it only fair to assemble one from scratch from the posted contents list before doing a detailed review.

The contents list is available online by clicking the link below or the From The Bunker documents link on the channel page. Other From The Bunker documents are available at the same boxnet link. Level I MOD II P-FAK Contents List PDF www.box.net FROM THE BUNKER (PDF Documents) www.box.net The bag used for the Level I MOD II P-FAK is a 6x9 aloksak. This is a very similar in size to the MIL-SPEC document pouch advocated by Nutnfancy. aloksaks are more readily available then the MIL-SEC document pouches. The side loading 6x9 aloksak also provides an easy wallet type access to your medical supplies. aloksaks are available at REI and most sporting goods and outdoor supply stores. Click the aloksak company link below for more details. ALOKSAK® ELEMENT-PROOF BAGS www.loksak.com www.rei.com bepreparedtosurvive.com www.thewaterproofstore.com Labeling on the aloksak and ZIPLOCK bags can be removed with denatured alcohol. ZIPLOCKS are made of polyethylene plastic and make a great material for bag sealers to package various bits of equipment and material. An example is repackaging bulk 4x4 gauze pads into a slimmer package. Not sterile . . . yes, but in reality sterility in the field is a misnomer. All first-aid procedures performed in the field are by definition clean procedures.
Is Cartman the Archie Bunker of His...I'm not sure why the the Eric Cartman character on the show "South Park" is so appealing as a kind of "lovable bigot," but Cartman also reminds me of another character from I show I watched in my childhood, the Archie Bunker character in the show "All in the Family," as I explain in this video. The 2 short clips of the program "South Park" come from the episode "Pee" broadcast on Comedy Central on November 18, 2009, and currently available online at tinyurl.com The audio clip of the interview of Trey Parker by Julie Rovner comes from the program broadcast on NPR on April 5, 2008, available online at www.npr.org And, the 3 clips of the program "All in the Family" come from the episode "Sammy's Visit" broadcast on CBS on February 19, 1972, and currently available on DVD from Amazon at www.amazon.com
