The UPS guy dropped off the start of my food storage!

I’m in my early stages of food storage, and I figured this was a good unit to start with. I’ll just build it from here. :o )

This is how I make refried beans, a foundation for many Mexican dishes.

What are the 3 most important discoveries/inventions?

I was wondering if there is a general consensus world wide about which inventions and or discoveries have had the MOST favorable impact on human life from it’s start (I don’t care what you believe as far as evolution -vs- creationism) to the present day. Looking at all aspects, here are my choices, in chronological order. 1. Fire, the ability to make at will and control. I think this opened up countless options for humans, from cooking food to seeing at night, defense against animals, etc. 2. Alphabet/writing. All the knowledge gained by the previous generation would be useless without a way to pass on and preserve long term. Not just English but all writing forms (cuneiform,hieroglyphics,Cryillic) If you are reading this now give thanks to the Phoenicians. 3. Electricity. Honestly, just how f**ked would the entire world be without it, from what you are doing on the computer now to heating your house. I know I left out a lot, but I was going after the most far ranging choices. What do you think?

Is this a good start for a beginner?

Well, I’ve been practicing Southern Dragon Kung Fu (Lung Ying Quan) for 3 years and have learned how to obsessively master useful skills for Sanda or Sanshou.

Also I’ve been practicing some Mongolian Wrestling with my Master, however I’m still learning.

Now I wish to further learn Jeet Kune Do in Hong Kong and BJJ as well for ground fighting/wrestling.

Just want to take what’s useful and dump what’s unnecessary, I’m very interested in Kung Fu philosophies.

Well I’m pretty toned at 15 year old, look like similar to but no way near as strong as Bruce Lee. Haha! (Does not mean I’m weak ok? Bruce Lee is my highest idol ^^) But however in my age group or even above I’m really strong and I manage to wrestle some really big guys too usually by pushing then suddenly throwing them off balance.

may I please have your opinions please as I know many people here are allot more experience and may acknowledge me further and help my Martial Art.

well I treat it more like a last moment survival rather than sports in the MOST tough situation only, but sports can do too for practice.

should I practice more Chi gong as well, so I can totally strengthen my inner power as well? I’m always a positive thinker nowadays so the hormones are replacing my bad ones since I love meditating hehe.

Thank you very much my friends!
btw I’m thinking about shocking myself with electricity voltage lines in order to improve my reaction time. my friends all say I’m crazy, usually training 2-3 hours per day with about 2 days rest per weak. can be 4-5 hours at weekends.

I go mountain running allot, climbing trees, Bartendaz street workout, shadow boxing, and I also do many stunts haha. I’m a break dancer too ;P
My height: 173cm
My weight: 65kg
thank you, thank you for your honest opinion.

by the way my school needs to me train Tae Kwan Do for my IGCSE Sports Studies, well as that’s the only Martial Art available which I’ve qualified before. I was a blue belt in Tae Kwan Do but that was about 8 years ago lol. If I start again, I’m not sure.. haha will it be blue belt still? since I do other martial arts too. and how useful will Tae Kwan Do be, I’m not really sure about it lol, what should I concentrate on Tae Kwan Do?

Thank you thank you for your opinions, they’re very appreciated thanks!

would you read this???????

here is my start to my story do you think it would get published? 10 points if you read it!!!

The last thing I remember is flying my j-3 cub piper over Alaska’s beautiful Wrangell mountain range coming home from my cousin cabin in anchorage. when my head started to throb and I herd millions of voices that’s when everything went blank. Right now I’m upside down in the airplane with the water rising rapidly. There is always a thought in my head that I‘m going to drown as the water builds up behind the plane that has the creek damned. Pain shoots through my temples and crowds my already pulsing thoughts. Every muscle is cramped. Every tendon is sore. More throbbing as I move my arm. But it doesn’t budge. Only the cold night air can stimulate any response in my immovable limb.
I don’t know how to get out of here and don’t know how I didn’t torn apart in the crash. Dawns creeping in and I know this is bear country. I’m a diabetic and I only have enough insulin for a week (if I can find it). The only things I have is the airplane (crashed), a survival kit, and the clothes I have on. Since I’m a 35 year old business man from LA, I have no survival skills. and I have never been outdoors for more than 2 hours.
The pain is so intense that though I’m extremely tired, sleep won’t come. All about is darkness and the stillness moves in on padded feet, like a great, black and silky cat. Gut-wrenching aching from the large chunk of glass in my leg shakes and ravages through me, and an ugly gash in the windscreen where I kicked it through, glares bleakly at me.
Morning has come the sun stares at my throbbing aching face. I finally get my first real glimpse of my surroundings its like nothing happened all the birds are singing happily in this thin pine forest. It’s like they are tormenting me and trying to get me to go crazy.
Pain rips at every part of my body as I climb out of this twisted piece of metal. Glass shards rip at my skin as I plop out into the bitter cold water. I lay there in agony for what it seems like an eternity. I’m searching desperately for my insulin it’s my only life line. I rip at everything looking for my insulin ignoring the roaring pain ripping at me. I spot it and let every emotion that I have flow out screaming as loud as possible. I jab the needle into my side and feel every muscle in my body tighten as I pass out from the unbearable pain.
p.s. i’m only 14
