Iâm (Mike of Military Backpack Guide) a former US Marine and IRAQ veteran, and this is my list of the absolute best survival books.  Books you can learn from, and live by. The problem is that there are a ton of books about survival but lots of them are, well, junk.  Not junk in the sense that the author didnât try, just more like books that tend to be a compilation of other books, original works that have been consumed and regurgitated, and every other ânot that greatâ reference in between. Thatâs one of the reasons why this is the âtop 7â and not âtop 10â.  I refuse to stuff this thing with unnecessary entries just to make a number.  This is officially  the best collection of survival books this side of Marsâ neatly organized, and updated for 2015.  Of course, if youâre not a book learner, there are plenty of survival schools throughout the world too.

The ZORA Canon, our list of the 100 greatest books ever written by African American women, is one of a kind, yet it exists within a rich cultural tradition. As author and New York Times contributing opinion writer Kaitlyn Greenidge notes in âWhy We Need to Acknowledge the African American Womenâs Canon,â her insightful and moving introduction to the list, Black artists and cultural leaders have been compiling documents of this sort since the 1700s, first as part of an ongoing argument against White supremacy and slavery. Later, during Reconstruction, as a reminder to the newly literate Black population âthat they were not alone.â Later still, to catalog the abundance of the Harlem Renaissance (the period that brought us Zora Neale Hurston, for whom ZORA is named). And in contemporary time, less to prove the value of Black womenâs voices and their humanity than to âgo about challenging the work of figuring out what this space would mean for us.â

I recently just got back from the ravishing state of California this past winter break. The things to do and see in this state is limitless. Every city and region is known for something. This December, we traveled from Sacramento through San Francisco, to the central coast.
1. Golden Gate
As soon as we landed, we headed towards the Fishermanâs Warf which is located in the heart of San Francisco. San Franâs Wharf is definitely interesting. Right near the bay, the downtown wharf area contains a variety of gourmet restaurants and high tech corporate buildings like Google and Reddit. As prosperous as this area is, it is a bit on the dirty side. I would keep your eyes peeled as you would in any downtown area.

This is a talk I gave to incoming first-year students at Berklee College of Music today: September 5, 2008.
#1 : Focus. Disconnect. Do not be distracted.
My favorite part of the movies is the training sequence, where a young Bruce Wayne, Neo, or Kung-Fu Panda goes to a remote location to be trained relentlessly, nonstop, past all breaking points, until they emerge as a master.The next few years can be your training sequence, if you focus.

What do you do with your old computers? The one which once had good hardware configuration but now those are considered outdated. Why not revive your old computer with Linux? I am going to list best lightweight Linux distributions that you can use on your older PC.
While our focus is on older computers, you can also use most of these lightweight Linux on relatively new hardware. This will give you a better performance if you use your computer for resource-heavy usage such as video editing on Linux.
Letâs see which lightweight Linux distro you should use.

Hereâs some loose and evolving thoughts about how I build websites. Iâm mainly writing this for my own use and something I can point potential clients to about what I believe in. It may be of help to others as well. Iâll continue to update this post as other ideas/thoughts/statements/beliefs come up.I believe in simple, clean, fast, purpose built websites. I will not be clogging up the pipes with vapid stock photos or meaningless cruft. The websites I build have one purpose â information delivery. I build and design them to fulfill that goal. If you want fancy, you can find that everywhere and pay a price far higher than I charge for it. I donât do that and those that hire me hire me because I donât do that.Before I even begin to build a website for a client, I engage in a deep conversation around two simple questions: Who is coming here and what are they looking for? I design the entire site around the answers to those two questions.

I can’t pull all the posts from all the feeds to this site as it would overwhelm the “Poor Lil’ Ole’ Meanderthal Blog” but I think a random snippet reflection here would be a fantastic addition and I’m looking forward to building that over the next couple weeks.
Stay Tuned!
