Machete: The Marvelous Machete

If you’ve ever gone on a jungle trek, or been in dense undergrowth for many acres, you’ve probably learned about a machete. If there is another tool out there that can take you through dense, tangled, never-ending underbrush better than a machete, I’d have a hard time believing it. There isn’t anything, anywhere that can compare to the magnificent machete.Roughly described, a machete is a very long, heavy knife. It’s made in varying sizes and designs. A very popular blade size is one that is usually 18″ in length, 2 and a quarter inches in width and just a few millimeters thick. They’re not too short and have good weight on them.In third world countries, the machete is often as valuable as a sharp knife. It’s actually used as a knife, a cleaver, a splitter, even a butcher’s knife to mention a few. You’d be hard pressed to find a household without one. When it isn’t being abused as a weapon, it is truly amazing.Just in case you’re not sure, the swing when using a machete is very simple. Bring your arm up to just beside or behind your ear. […]

Insane Ocean Swimmer: Your Knife Is Your Only Defense

window.document.getElementById(’post-32′).parentNode.className += ‘ adhesive_post’;

Finding different ways to exercise was really getting on my nerves. I just didn’t want to go to a gym or go running or hiking. I needed serious motivation. Gazing at the ocean, realizing how much I missed it, I decided to have a short visit and a good swim, while I was at it.Before I knew it, I was going three times a week for over a month. Making it a strong swim with no resting. And I could see, I could truly see new lines, new shadows on my body that I hadn’t seen in so long. Then I decided. This was going to be my new way to work out. Two to three times a week, I’d swim for 20-30 minutes (of course, I timed it). And we’ll see.Soon after the first month, I watched Jaws on television one night. And then, right after in the same night, I watched “Shark Attack” on Animal Planet. Oh, baby. That was it. Scared me crazy all over again. But I’ve got to make my swim. I can’t stop now. So […]

Make Money From Domain Names ‘ Before It’s Too Late!

A domain name is the name that identifies a website. For example, Microsoft.com is the domain name of Microsoft’s website.People are increasingly coming to realise how valuable domain names are as commodities in their own right. Businesses are realising that the right domain name can be the difference between success and failure on the web. A good domain name can generate enough traffic to turn an unprofitable website into a profitable one.As an example of their potential value, creditcards.com recently sold for $2.75 million, a record for a 2 word domain name. Fund.com sold for $10 million in early 2008.Obviously, the vast majority of domains will not fetch this kind of money, but there is the potential to make a very good income trading domain names. Making money from domain names is not new and not revolutionary, but it is an industry that is growing exponentially, and an opportunity that should be grabbed with both hands.So, how do you get a good domain name?1. Overly long and complicated domain names should be avoided. A short name is much easier for your potential visitors to remember. All 2 and 3 character names (for example aa.com or car.com) are already gone, but […]
