Canada Fly-In Lakes Provide Unique Survival Options
Ontario Fly-In lakes delight tourists by providing outstanding fishing and other recreational activities. People come from miles away to experience the serenity and beauty of the Canadian wilderness. The area is great for bird watchers, photographers, canoe enthusiasts and anglers. Many lakes boast of populations of trophy game fish.
Canoeing opportunities are a real treat in the remote sections of Canada's pine forests. The interconnected waterways that traverse the forest are home to black bear, moose, red fox, timber wolves, white-tailed deer, beaver and other wildlife. Enjoying the call of a loon that pierces the air is all part of the experience in this part of Canada. In Wabakimi Provincial Park you may also be lucky enough to see woodland caribou. The park is home to around three hundred caribou.
For fishermen, the remote lakes of Ontario's wilderness are among the world's best for highly sought after species like walleye and northern pike. Pike over twenty pounds are not uncommon and many walleye exceed ten pounds in this area. Some locations also have smallmouth bass, perch and lake trout.
During the summer, swimming and sunbathing are popular past times. The water is cool but refreshing. August and September tend to be the best months for swimming, because the water temperature is tolerable and the mosquito season has abated. During the spring and early summer, bug repellent is an item you should not leave behind. Sun screen is also advisable.
Many areas have remote cabins that you can stay in. They frequently feature modern amenities and can be a great place to relax after a day of canoeing and fishing. For a more rustic vacation, back country campsites are also an option. Travelers may wish to stay out under the stars at night and begin fishing at the crack of dawn, miles away from the trappings of urban civilization.
Many of these lakes are only accessible by bush plane, so they are not over-fished or overpopulated. You can enjoy a true one of a kind wilderness adventure and bring back photos and memories. Whether you camp outdoors or rent a secluded cottage, your experience is sure to be a memorable one.
Ontario Fly-In lakes offer excellent fishing, canoeing and swimming opportunities. Here the coniferous forests smell of pine and the sounds of the wild come to life, playing music in your ears. Leave behind the hustle and bustle of the city and you can experience the tranquility of the Ontario wilderness first hand.

Of course only the Japanese could build this in their garage with spare parts, an Xbox and an iPhone.
The book "Dead Mech" details exactly how semi-autonomous robots could be used in the upcoming apocalypse. Just for reference sake the US Army and DARPA has spent 100s of millions trying to develop concepts. These guys are building BattleTech style mechs now.

Some World War 2 Trivia
Little Known WWII History
(unsourced, author unkown)
The first German serviceman killed in WW II was killed by the Japanese ( China , 1937)
The first American serviceman killed was killed by the Russians ( Finland 1940)
Highest ranking American killed was Lt Gen Lesley McNair, killed by the US Army Air Corps. So much for friendly fire.
The youngest US serviceman was 12 year old Calvin Graham, USN. He was wounded and given a Dishonorable Discharge for lying about his age. His benefits were later restored by act of Congress.
At the time of Pearl Harbor , the top US Navy command was called CINCUS (pronounced 'sink us'),
The shoulder patch of the US Army's 45th Infantry division was the Swastika, and Hitler's
private train car was named 'Amerika.' All three were soon changed for PR purposes.
More US servicemen died in the Air Corps than the Marine Corps. While completing the required 30 missions, your chance of being killed was 71%.
Japanese Ace Hiroyoshi Nishizawa shot down over 80 planes. He died while a passenger on a cargo plane.
It was a common practice on fighter planes to load every 5th round with a tracer round to aid in aiming. This was a mistake. Tracers had different ballistics at long range so if your tracers were hitting the target, 80% of your rounds were missing. Worse yet, tracers told your enemy he was under fire and from which direction. Worst of all was the practice of loading a string of tracers at the end of the belt to tell you that you were out of ammo. This was not something you wanted to tell the enemy. Units that stopped using tracers saw their success rate nearly double and their loss rate go down.
When allied armies reached the Rhine , the first thing men did was pee in it. This was pretty universal from the lowest private to Winston Churchill (who made a big show of it) and Gen. Patton (who had himself photographed in the act).
German Me-264 bombers were capable of bombing New York City , but Hitler decided it wasn't worth the effort.
German submarine U-120 was sunk by a malfunctioning toilet.
Among the first 'Germans' captured at Normandy were several Koreans. They had been forced to fight for the Japanese Army until they were captured by the Russians and forced to fight for the Russian Army … until they were captured by the Germans and forced to fight for the German
Army … until they were captured by the US Army.
AND LAST.... Following a massive naval bombardment, 35,000 United States and Canadian troops stormed ashore at Kiska, in the Aleutian Islands . 21 troops were killed in the assault on the island. It could have been worse … if there had been any Japanese on the island.

A Guide to Mechanical Repairs
It is incredibly frustrating when your car's engine dies in the middle of nowhere and you need to have it transported away. In that situation, after you have got your vehicle to a safe place you need to get it to a mechanic straight away. Many mechanics offer car towing, and will come and pick up your automobile to take it to their garage for repair.
You might already have a basic knowledge of what your mechanic does for you car. Basically, it is a proactive job that involves the mending and replacing of different automobile parts. Specialists trained in this profession are familiar with all the mechanical features and engine components of a vehicle and what purpose they serve.
Both minor and major services for cars are offered by mechanical repair engineers or garages. An example of a minor service is changing the oil or fuel filters. These filters ensure that the oil a car is using is clean, and so should always be in good condition. Another is an alternator service. Alternators are used for powering electrical systems of the car while the engine is running as well as charging the car's battery. Alternator malfunctioning is characterized by the engine not starting up. In this example, the mechanic might need to install a new alternator, which they can supply themselves. Your automobile may need other forms of minor servicing and repair, such as aircon repair or radiator repair.
Mechanics also perform major services for vehicles which have been involved in crashes. This can involve replacing larger and vital parts of the engine or straightening out the metal casing of the automobile. These repairs are likely to be dear, and depending on the severity of the damage you could be far better off simply purchasing a new vehicle.
You should always have a local mechanic's number of hand, in case you have an automobile emergency and need servicing.
