Script for May 1, 2017, for the Hearing Impaired

Find your Survival Niche

[Disclaimer]
In partnership with USAEBN, ZetaTalk and  the Zeta Report will be discussing the challenges of living on a planet beset with change – rising seas, increasing earthquakes and volcanic activity, weather gone wild, and the worry of what to do in a worst case scenario.

We will also inject ZetaTalk prophecy on what is coming next and advice on Readiness Plans and Safe Locations. Whenever ZetaTalk is quoted, please remember that prophecy is not FACT, it is opinion. It only becomes fact when it happens.

The Zetas are remarkably accuracy, but have been wrong on occasion. Bear that in mind. For more information on this subject please visit ZetaTalk.com or The Zeta Report on YouTube.

[Chat Question]
Questions from the chat, and issues raised in the chat, will be addressed toward the end of the hour after the main feature has been presented.

[Intro]
Most survival prep focuses on the individual, or his family, being prepared. The group, or community is seldom emphasized. Yet optimum survival potential depends up on a cooperative group, sharing and working together for the common good.

How does one fit into that group? It is the variety of skills as well as the determination of the group members that spell success. Let’s go over some of our highly recommended survival maneuvers and see how you might fit in.

[CERT]
CERT stands for Community Emergency Response Teams. Being a First Responder is definitely a nitch, and not for the faint at heart either. This is hero stuff. Here in our village the First Responders go into burning building, give CPR, and if called upon to do so, I have no doubt would stand staunch against a the Zombie Apocalypse. Quoting the FEMA website:

CERT educates individuals about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. 

All emergencies are local and the CERT program helps citizens be prepared for when a disaster strikes. It’s a great tool that FEMA uses to make sure that the every day citizen, those people who are the first on scene have the tools and skills they need to respond to a disaster.

[CERT3]
Our host, the USA Emergency Broadcast Network nonprofit, has been supporting and encouraging community efforts for group survival from the start. Tim Howard, the founder of USAENB, is a Homeland Security agent, and has worked for the federal government for 20 years. USAEBN has been working with the Federal CERT program in the Gila (AZ) county and received a Certificate of Appreciation from Gila County this past month for these efforts.

[CERT2]
He states that the real reason he started USA EBN was because he got tired of placing people in body bags, people who could have otherwise been saved had those around them had the right information. Thus he has been personally involved in CERT in his home state of Arizona. Go First Responders!

[weeds]
If that’s not your nitch, how about a weed garden. Weeds are some of the most hardy plants, though they may be difficult for corporate farmers to harvest. But after the Pole Shift, during the years when volcanic gloom may limit sunlight, they will thrive where conventional garden plants may not. I have several weeds in my garden which I treasure.

Purslane, high in Vitamin A and a sweet tasting succulent. Sheep Sorrel which will grow in the shade and is high in Vitamin C. Lambs Quarters, high in the foliate Vitamin B9. Your weed garden will be a source of seed for others. Get a book. Ignore the scowling neighbors. Consider Dandelion, Thistle, Prickly Pear, and even Stinging Nettle.

[duckweed]
Most people think of a marsh as a place to go during duck hunting season, but they are so much more. Duckweed, that tiny floating plant that looks like a light green cover on many ponds, is 45% protein, compared to soy which is only 36%. One can harvest repeatedly as it grows rapidly.

Do you or will you have a warm climate after the Pole Shift? If so, arrange fish ponds with Tapicia, which feed on algae and Duckweed. I tried to seed Wild Rice in the marsh next door to me, but was told this did not take because we have catfish there, bottom feeders, and they uproot the plants. There are lessons to be learned, so if this is your nitch, start now, don’t wait!

[mushroom]
Mushrooms have proteins and B Vitamins, but can be poisonous. If you are an experienced Mushroom picker, you can give classes, or be the guru leading a picking party into the woods. If your group does not have such an expert, but if you are into books, this is an ideal candidate for the community library!

Speaking of a community library, this should include everything your current library does. Books on every subject. Don’t forget the kids, lacking transport to and teachers for their traditional schooling, will need books on math and science. Is this your nitch?

[FirstAid]
Speaking of books, your group may be fortunate enough to have a doctor or nurse or a dentist or a hygienist. But if not, books on First Aid training or what to do in the event of this or that will be highly valued. The Troubled Times info on books includes many, as
    Where There is No Doctor,
    Where There is No Dentist,
    Special Forces Medical Handbook,
    Ships Captains Medical Guide,
    Emergency War Surgery,
    Ditch Medicine, and the
    Book for Midwives: A Manual for Traditional Birth Attendants and Midwives.
Is this your nitch? Buy those books!

[Folic]
Vitamins are such an important factor in the diet. So many diseases are caused by a lack of vitamins, from soft bones in infants and toddlers from lack of Vitamin D to crippling Spinal Bifida in the newborn from lack of Vitamin B9 to fatal scurvy from lack of Vitamin C to blindness due to lack of Vitamin A.

One of my most prized lectures here on the monthly Zeta Report was the one on Vitamins in Nature, on January 4, 2016. Nature provides, in the weeds and bugs that abound everywhere. If this is your nitch, get educated and prepare to make your group healthy! Nothing could be more important.

[FolicWeeds]
How to prevent Spinal Bifida? Eat Folate rich weeds. They are everywhere, growing along roadside and as opportunistic weeds in your garden. Folate has the same root as the word foliage, and folic acid is found liberally in greens such as Spinach and Turnip greens. If you don’t have a garden, don’t overlook the weeds! Folate is found in all leafy greens.

Wild greens, such as Dandelion, Lamb’s Quarter, Amaranth, and Stinging Nettle are especially rich in folate. Lamb's Quarters also has triple the amount of Calcium when compared to Spinach. Stinging Nettle is high in Iron. Stinging Nettle, by the way, does not sting after cooked in the steamer. Wear gloves when picking, however.

[bugfood1]
One highly important nitch likely to be overlooked due to the yuck factor is eating bugs and earthworms. Yet this is a significant source of protein around the world, in many cases considered a delicacy. Bugs are cheaper to raise then meat, are very high in protein and fat, and contain many essential Vitamins. Your essential Vitamin shield will not be complete without bugs!

[bugfood2]
There is lots of documentation on how to raise bugs on the Internet. Just Google “bug farms”. Bugs eat compost and even manure, so their feed is readily at hand. They will even consume road kill, rotting meat. If you are service oriented enough to choose this as your nitch, and are trying to gird up for the yuck factor, just remember that lobster, shrimp and crabs are in fact BUGS. That’s a fact.

[earthworms]
Earthworms are another source of protein, likewise eating compose and manure. They are 82% protein, with Omega 3 as the essential oil. We had worm beds here at my home 15 years ago during the hydroponic lab times in my basement.

We learned a lot, which is why starting NOW and not waiting is important. Red wigglers are the best, as those big fat night crawlers just will not domesticate. Just give them a pile of garden compose to nestle in, and they get right to work making soil and propagating.

[earthworm2]
Remove the egg casts regularly, as they act as a natural contraceptive for the worms. Too many around, not enough to eat, and they would all stave, so they stop having babies. Those egg casts, by the way, are the best fertilizer in the world! Dissolve in water and they will even grow hydroponic gardens! 

We tried this, and it works! As effective as the commercial hydroponic nutrient solution. The worm beds also create soil, for your gardens. And the bonus is that Earthworm beds are quiet, and the herd never stampedes. 

[chickens]
If one has a suburban or rural setting, starting a brood of Chickens is an ideal nitch. Once again, a learning curve should be anticipated. It is more than just purchasing a bunch of chicks, and yes, they can be mailed to you in a box. Stick their little beaks in water right away else they won’t learn to drink. Normally, mama teaches them to drink.

They need sunlight for Vitamin D or get soft bones. Feed the shells back to them for the Calcium. Free range Chickens will search for bugs and worms, but Chickens are omnivores and will eat anything. They will clean a Melon rind down to nothing.

A single brooder hen will likely hatch all the fertile eggs for the flock, and yes a rooster is necessary. They also defend the flock from predators, and unfortunately, that might include you. Rooster attacks can be painful.

[donkey]
I you are lucky enough to be in a rural area, on the fringes of a suburban area that allows you to have a hobby farm, you can have Donkeys. These little burros are loyal and protective, and will take on cougars or coyotes or snakes. They mix in with the herd of Sheep or Goats.

Geese are another protector of the farm, and loudly announce any approach. Need an alarm system? Get Geese. If you are lucky enough to be able to keep these critters, this is your nitch!

[goats]
A step up from Chickens are Goats. They are more difficult to keep, being larger and very agile, but the big advantage is that they produce an excellent milk, which can make a superlative cheese, and they are also a source of meat. Goats do not need to be herded, they bond and will follow their herdsman around. They eat anything, including poison ivy.

Their manure is like pellets, not sloppy, so easily collected and transported. They are jumpers, and climbers, and hard to corral thus. I have been told that they are affectionate, and give a type of hug. I have also been told that if they have twins they might abandon one kid, usually the little girl.

[GrowingPower]
Those living in the cities should take a page from Growing Power. This enterprise shows that growing soil with earthworms, so one does not need to import dirt, and developing a thriving business selling local vegies is possible in the worst urban decay areas.

The CEO of Growing Power is a consultant and award winner, populating this winning concept in a number of cities. His methods are tried and true, not secret, not theoretical, so if this is your nitch, jump in!

[citygarden]
If you lack a plot of land, take to the roof tops! If you live in a condo in a high rise, do container gardening on your porch! Many cities provide communal garden plots, where produce can be shared and the combined compost pile building highly fertile soil. If you have gardening skills, idle from years of city living, this may be your nitch!

[seedA]
The main benefit of jumping into gardening, without delay, is the ability to have fresh seed. Those who have never gardened assume being prepared for the future means buying a bunch of seed packets and then feeling smug. It is oh, so much more. In a global catastrophe, distribution of all goods will come to a halt, and the shelves in the stores will be bare.

But if you, and others in your group, are growing and saving seed, you can share with other survivor groups and boy, will you be appreciated! Seed easiest to save is from annual plants that mature to seed in a year, and all that is required is to allow the seed to dry on the plant and store in a cool dry place. This is true for Corn, Beans, Okra, Mustard, Raddish, Dill, Parsley, and Spinach.

Some seed like Lettuce and Amaranth must be collected regularly as it matures and then flies away or drops if not collected. Some seed is messy to collect, requiring an overripe fruit and some moldering to prepare the seed. This includes Tomato, Peppers, Melons, Eggplant, and Squash and Pumpkin.

[seedB]
Certain plants require special handling. Potatoes are propagated by cuttings. Garlic has been cultivated so long it no longer goes to seed, so cloves from a root cluster are required for propagation. Cabbage, Onions, and Carrots are examples of biennial plants that will only go to seed in their second year.

Cover them over for the winter or use a root cellar to keep them from freezing. Remember that Potatoes and Tomatoes are members of the nightshade family, so the greens from these plants should not be fed to livestock. Compost the greens instead.

[strawberry]
If you like berries, then a Strawberry patch is a must. You can grow Strawberries indoors, and when your survival community is hungry for berries you can give them the runners that spring forth from mature plants. Strawberries do not go to seed, so this is how the plants are commercially grown.

Local Raspberry plants may propagate from seed dropped in bird poop, so look for the baby plants nearby. Grape vines via cuttings. Prepare, if you can, to be the source for these delightful fruits in the future, if this is your nitch.

[lyzineA]
Are you a good cook? Like to invent new recipes? This is a VERY important nitch! Make Duckweed and mashed grubs tasty! Make fake omelets from mashed grubs. We ate Earthworm recipes in 2001, created by a Sushi Chef - Ichi - who was here from Japan for this purpose. The best was a “chicken” soup, which had pieces of Earthworm floating around. It did indeed taste like Chicken, I can attest.

[lyzineB]
If one is forced to a vegetarian diet, the key is to use lysine heavy grains – Buckwheat, Soy, Peas, Legumes, and Amaranth are the highest.  Corn and Amaranth together are the equivalent of red meat. Powder made from dried bugs or worms could be used in soups, to thicken the soup. Opportunities await!

As the Zetas have stated “Good cooks, skilled at making the plain fare tasty, will be much appreciated”.

[fibers]
A nitch seldom considered when long-term survival is discussed is manufacturing clothing. The emphasis is instead on batteries and freeze dried foods. But clothing wears out, children grow, and mending with patches only goes so far. Clothing can be developed from cotton, wool, or linen fibers. The fibers are combed and then twisted into theads. Linen stalks are soaked to remove all but the long fibers.

[spinning]
Cotton and Wool are carded between two brushes, then spun on a Spinning Wheel or distaff to put a twist into the threads. Spinning Wheels can be purchased, as this is a popular hobby and I can tell you, fun and relaxing.

Yes, my mother, bless her heart, made sure I had spinning lessons as a child! She also made sure I learned how to weave cloth on a Loom. Both Spinning Wheels and Looms are simple designs, which I have provided on the Troubled Times page which I host on my ZetaTalk websites.

[cloth]
If this is your nitch, you can partner with a carpenter in your survival group, and manufacture these items. Spinning and weaving by the fireside is a time honored occupation for rainy or cold days. Manual sewing machines can likewise be purchased new or used.

An easy way to get a pattern, when the pattern shops are gone or inaccessible, it to take apart an old used garment and lay the pieces out on a table. There’s your pattern!

[knitting]
Wool is most often twisted into yarn, and then knitted into clothing such as scarves, blankets, hats, and sweaters. Knitting needles are nothing more than long sticks, which adroitly interconnect a long long section of yarn.

Many patterns for various items like booties or mittens exist, or an experienced knitter, perhaps too old to garden or chase chickens anymore, can teach others. This is a perfect nitch for an elder.

[handtools]
If carpentry is your nitch, plan for losing the grid and having to use hand tools. These can be found in barn and garage sales, and also purchased new! Even the venerable crosscut saw can be purchased new. If you become proficient before disaster strikes, you will be in much demand.

In the days before electricity, hand tools were used to build houses, construct furniture, and to make carts and wagons. My father designed and built furniture in the basement as a hobby, to relax, making his own patterns and selecting the hardwoods to be used. If this is your nitch, revel in it!

[houseboat3]
Into water sports? Consider becoming a houseboat specialist. Rising water will be a problem for most of the world, and the need to switch from a home on stilts to a houseboat will become a reality for many. There are houseboat designs available, where one can build-their-own pontoons, but any air tight container will work.

Try your hand at this, and be known among your likely survivor group partners for this specialty. You will never be alone. Houseboats can be constructed from all the trash that will be laying around. Be resourceful. Have fun.

[savonius]
Electricians have a ready-made nitch, as when the grid goes down everyone will be looking for the lights to come back on. Wind or water mills, along with the alternators found in every car and electric tools such as drills, will generate electricity, as well a bike gen.

Windmills don’t have to be fancy, or tall. The flaps of a Nebraska windmill are at ground level, and the Savonius spins at the slightest breeze, just like a child’s pinwheel toy.

[ShortWave]
If your group has an experienced Ham Radio enthusiast, you are in luck. Short Wave is the emergency frequency of choice around the world. Our Village has a tower for this purpose. Short Wave communications moves from local tower to local tower and can even use the Moon for a bounce, I am told.

This is a popular hobby, and enthusiasts have the transmitter, mics, towers, and batteries as part of the package. I had a guest when the Troubled Times projects were in process at my home, and he put a tower up by tossing a wire into a tree.

Short Wave can have a long reach, I can attest. Decades ago, using an old Telefunken radio, we reached S Africa from Wisconsin. If you can see this as your nitch, there are books aplenty available.

[CellPhoneBurn]
On March 27 a Hong Kong upward bound escalator suddenly revered and rapidly spilled dozens of people onto the mall floor below. Many people were injured in the pileup. On March 29 an Alabama man was electrocuted in his sleep, because he was sleeping with his cell phone while charging it.

He received 110 volts, but it only takes 100 volts to kill a man. He had a metal earing, and this ear was swollen shut and 3rd degree burns on his neck.

[Dallas156]
On April 9 Dallas, Texas had all 156 sirens blaring, simultaneously and repeatedly, for hours. Officially, this all stemmed from a hub, which controlled them all. The news stated the incident required manual, or physical entry into this hub.

Yet the agencies called to investigate did not include the local police. What, no fingerprints? Apparently they were aware that phone or radio commands to the hub had not occurred. Per the Zetas, this was EMP.

[BiCoastalUSA]
On April 21 the US had coast-to-coast blackouts, the most severe in San Francisco at 9:20 am Pacific Time. San Francisco is surrounded on three sides by water, which EMP loves. This was preceded by electrical problems in New York City at 7:30 am Eastern Time, when several subway systems failed.

New York City, particularly Manhattan island where this occurred, is of course surrounded by water. On this same day, just after the San Francisco blackout, there was an outage in Los Angeles, and the PG&E outage map shows the Portland, Oregon area affected also.  

[SanFran]
The San Francisco outage was blamed on a single substation, but multiple substations control the region affected. The blackouts were also spotty, San Francisco looking like it had a case of measles. This is characteristic of EMP, not a cutoff at a substation. Quoting SFGate.com

A huge blackout, bringing everyday life to a virtual standstill as homes and businesses and courtrooms went dark, traffic lights stopped working, BART and Muni service slowed, and all the cable cars shut down. The power failure struck just after 9 am and extended through the Tenderloin and Chinatown, up Nob Hill, and into the Marina and the Presidio.

[New York]
Characteristic for EMP caused by Nibiru, it moves with the Sun, rises with the Sun and is gone by nightfall. New York City had their transit problems at 7:30 ET, but San Francisco did not start until 9:30 PT. No cause for the New York City outage was ever reported, at least not that day. Quoting ABC:

Service was completely halted on the B, C and M lines. Con Edison and transit crews are working to determine what triggered the hours-long outage that affected the signals, which began around 7:30 am. Con Edison first investigated the power issue at West 42nd Street and Sixth Avenue, but did not find any problems there.

[BlameSun]
The establishment quickly tried to blame the Sun, but as usual in these events their prediction came late, AFTER the incident, AFTER April 21. The EMP in the US happened early in the day on April 21, and the NOAA charts showed no warning until LATER in that day.

NOAA can tweak the data to meet their needs, and the cover-up certainly lies about Nibiru on many fronts. The key is what they were saying before the EMP hit! At that time, as was noted on the GodLikeProduction forum, they were saying the Sun was very quiet, solar activity very low. Quoting GodLikeProduction:

Is anyone asking why NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center is being forced to come up with an explanation after the fact for an unforecast 18 hour long and counting G2 storm with some magnetometers measuring kp=8 (G4) with winds at 700 km/sec from our sun?
According to NOAA the coronal hole stream isn't forecast to reach Earth until 4/23. No explanation for the current storming and 650 km/s winds.

[GothamShield]
Other excuses were that the outages had just been a hacking job. Hackers did it. Despite the logistics of the outages being done by hacking not fitting. Some alternative news sites tried to link the New York City outage to a planned exercise called Gotham Shield, but this was not scheduled to take place until April 24. Quoting the Daily Westerner.com site:

All of this is coinciding with the Operation Gotham Shield drill being held in the NYC area; depending on who you ask, it’s even going on right now, but again, we civilians (read: peons) are being mostly kept in the dark about the huge drill.

One set of dates says the drill started on April 18th and will run through May 5th. Another set of dates say the actual nuke/EMP simulation part of the drill won’t happen until April 24th–26th.
