I just heard that a new, expanded version of the promotional trailer for the "I Am Legend" feature film is now available. It looks scary and a bit OTT. But hopefully one result of this movie's release will be that it'll get some people thinking about the implications of a pandemic and hopefully get a few of them to stock up and get some training.

RBS flagged this one: Foreclosure filings soar in Third Quarter. One man's loss is another man's gain. As previously mentioned in SurvivalBlog, a small portion of rural foreclosures may represent a retreat buying opportunity. Monitor the market closely, either through a cooperative real estate agent in your selected retreat area, and/or through Foreclosure.com. You may find yourself a bargain in the months to come.

Stephen C. mentioned that Ammoman.com is selling brand new (factory sealed), current generation FERO Z-24 Hensoldt 4x24 scopes, with real H&K claw mounts, tools, lens caps and case for $389. Readers that own HK91 or HK93 rifles (or clones thereof) should grab a couple of of these scopes while they are still affordable. (I first mentioned them over a year ago when they were around $275.) With the continuing slide in the dollar versus the Euro, they are bound to continue to go up in price. Remember what I said about investing in tangibles? This is a prime example.
