Site Update / Changing Email Subscription Service

I finally was able to get most of the changes implemented although in a little different manner than planned. No matter……..

Here are the most recent changes:

◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

Blog Subscriptions: Many of you have subscribed and receive emails whenever a new post goes up. I have been using the same company to deliver these emails for quite some time and it is not cheap. There are reasons to use a fee-based service that I just do not take advantage of thus I have decided to end my agreement with them and start using a free service.

If you are interested in receiving notice whenever a new post goes live simply fill out the form below.

Projects: There is a section called “Projects”  at the top of the page towards the left. Originally this was to be an entire section about halfway down the page but some software restrictions prevented this. Clicking on Projects will bring to you to a new area which will include a variety of – you guessed it – “projects.” There are just a few available right now and others will be added periodically in the future.

Some projects have been completed while others are in process. As progress is made the specific Project page will be updated. Some will be very simple and some will be fairly complex. Most of these projects will be my own while others may come from readers or online video’s.

Check back often to see if new additions have been added. Want to have your own project added to the mix? Email it in to emergencycd at gmail dot com.

Galleries: Another area available via a tab at the top of the site is “Gallery.” These are basically collections of pictures related to things like guns, gardening, and even my dogs. BTW – “Jake and Bella” is the only gallery currently filled with pictures. Others are under development.

◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

SiteLock: I have contracted with SiteLock Secure to ensure that this website remains virus free and totally secure. There is a live status indicator on the right sidebar.

◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

Now Trending: Across the very top of the website is a scrolling marquee of text with a few articles from specific categories. Thought it looked pretty cool.

◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

Additional Pages: If you have never checked them out there are additional pages of information available by clicking on links across the top of the home page. These include “Adventure”, “Prepare”, and “Core Beliefs” among others. I have never posted any of these as articles so many may have never seen them.

◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

Similar to my old website I will be adding a database of downloadable content. This will be a massive collection of files including books, manuals, guides, video’, and more. All will be hosted on a different server so that downloading and accessing these files will not affect the website’s performance at all. Target completion date is November 15th.

I anticipate 1776PatriotUSA.com will take a more serious turn towards the unpredictable times ahead. Doom and gloom? No. Just prudent preparedness for potentially changing and challenging times ahead due to increasingly volatile societal and political conditions. Whew….say that 10 times.

Take care all –

Rourke

    Your comment, “I anticipate 1776PatriotUSA.com will take a more serious turn towards the unpredictable times ahead”, is well taken and needed. I am concerned for our country and it’s demise under hillery. obammie has done his part and now on to the clinton demise. Even 1st pres bush spoke for one world government and a weakening of the sheeple. We should be searching for our Land of Promise. Thanks for helping keep us prepared. – Keep Looking UP

      JBernDrApt,
      “Unpredictable times” is correct. See the following….it has definitely started in my mind. I read on Forbes last night about this and sent it out. My nephew has or had a gun shop. He was scrambling all this past week getting backlog out before this hits.

      Just read this in Forbes. Apparently the next plan of attack by Obama on guns is thru the small gun smiths. I interpret this to be under the auspices of the UN treaty on gun exports etc. that the Idiot of the White House signed. Following is a quote from the article.

      “My gunsmith has a lathe, a drill press, even a barrel reamer. He uses them to repair guns. To him, they are like a car mechanic’s welding equipment, drill and cutter tools. He never thought drilling out a broken-off screw or grinding down a gun part to make a rifle’s action work smoother would define him as a “manufacturer.” But now, according to the federal government, he is a manufacturer and is required to pay a $2,250 annual fee as mandated by the U.S. State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) regulations.”

      “Manta lists 15,615 gunsmiths in American today. Many of these are small shops—many of them are even side businesses for people who began tinkering with guns and then went to a gunsmith school. Requiring these people to pay $2,250 every year will drive many of them out of business or underground.”

      If underground were a place it’s going to get pretty crowded.

      Thanks JBernDrApt. Some that have followed me previously may find some content “dark” or overly “Doomsday Prepper”. It is what it is. I will likely utilize the “Projects” section to place some content related to this.

    I have a question JR. I get an email alert from 1776patriotusa.com but I also get an email alert about the same Post from John Rourke email. Will I continue to receive two emails about the same Post?

    While there is no apocryphal evidence for this to “actually” be a Chinese curse it never the less it is descriptive “May you live in interesting times”. Once we had to go out in the wide world .. to find adventure .. It seems now that it will come to us. We have become lazy so maybe that is fair. I forget where I read it but it defined adventure, as some one else being in deep crap, far away. Whether we are like Frodo and seek it or like the other Hobbits and think adventure is something to be studiously avoided, we will see it sooner rather than later. Oh we prepare to survive ALL the scenarios we can imagine, but we have no way of knowing exactly what form our adventure will take or come to us. Prepare we must, but we should be generalists in preparations and develop knowledge and mental flexibility lest we chip, and shatter with an unanticipated set events. We have some creative people here, and others live and read elsewhere.. Be cautious of what you say and to whom, and more so to whom you listen or let inside your thoughts, even virtually. Change is the only constant, and I look forward to seeing the changes in the site and with some small trepidation the outer world. Be deliberate, and look up .. (to borrow from two of our members)

        I think mine told me I was unsubscribed, too, but I’m getting both messages anyway. Maybe wait a day or so and see if you still get the updates.

          If you recently subscribed do not re-enter your email address. From what I can tell because I tried it if you enter your email address twice you get a message in red saying “The email address has opted out of subscription emails.
          You can manage your preferences at subscribe.wordpress.com” however when I visit the suggested website and re-enter my email address i am still following/subscribed to 1776PatriotUSA.com.

          If you get an update tomorrow about a new post then you are all good.
