#panic prevention

Why Prepare?

Whatever your reason(s), the "basics" are the same. Don't be caught off guard by a sudden emergency or catastrophic event. Grab and Follow this 14-point Checklist to begin your Emergency Preparations BEFORE the SHTF. Start preparing now! When an emergency happens, the time to prepare has passed; you'll be competing against everyone else who is panicking and scrambling for supplies. Stick a copy of this list on your refrigerator. Share with family and friends. Work on each item, a little at a time, but consistently, to reach your desired Readiness Level (2+ Weeks Supplies recommended per person). Start slow and small with Emergency Preparations otherwise it's easy to become overwhelmed and go crazy buying stuff you don't need and over-spending. Like anything we want to purchase, we should make our shopping list, budget for it and stay within that spending limit. Versions: [Pocket PDF for Sharing] [Full PDF Format]

It's has been 14 years since the release of the youth revolting Sheila. The 2006 Indie-Rock Ska Hip-Hop song by singer songwriter Jamie T. Sheila was the anthem for British youth culture at the time and also highlights the grim issues off being caught up in the thrill of London; Binge drinking, street violence and friends that lead you astray.
