    I have a Resqme attached to the zipper of mine, never had to use it but it might come in useful. And has less bulk than the EMT shears.

    No room for the blanket. Keep forgetting the Sharpie. Thanks for pointing that out.

    Looks good. If you have room I’d recommend a small space blanket (post injury hypothermia) and mini-sharpie (mark T application time).

    Unlocked and rooted ATT i717 Note running on T-Mobile ($30 100 minute/5 gig 4g – not a big talker, more a surfer)

    Not as fast as the newer Notes or the SG3, but has a little more resolution that I like (newer Note was more for viewing videos and I use mine more as a tablet surfing the net)

    Since the hardware is ATT, it seems to automatically detect all the ATT hotspots and I get on them for free and don’t even have
    to sign on (like at McD’s). Plus, I get to use at as a wifi hotspot, which is something I could not do with a T-Mobile Note using the prepaid plan

    Liked it so much, that I sold my Nexus 7 (though I probably will buy another one used if the price is right)

    In effort to be better prepared for the chance meeting of a would be active shooter, terrorist, or otherwise trauma-inflicting sociopath, I began carrying an ITS Tactical EDC trauma kit last summer in my daily EDC bag. I continuously questioned the legitimacy of it and felt it wasn’t enough albeit stocked with great gear. Here’s that and please forgive the brightness:
    Going in search of a very compact trauma kit, hearty enough to treat penetrating injuries, I couldn’t find a pouch small enough to fit my needs. I ended up ordering a small pouch from 5.11, which turned out to be larger than I anticipated. I’m not satisfied, but it’s a start. To that I added the contents of the ITS Tactical EDC trauma kit, plus a few other items. Since taking the picture, I’ve added a few large BandAids that are about as big a credit card because they wouldn’t fit in my Altoids booboo tin. Below is my Trauma IFAK:

    Since taking the pictures I’ve discovered the Blue Force Gear Micro Trauma Kit NOW, and plan to incorporate that into my EDC and transition the above kit to my field gear.

    Constructive criticism is welcomed and encouraged.

    I always wanted to try a Windows 8 phone!! I got one for my boss. Really great build quality as you can except from a Nokia. Sadly he had to return it since it didnt work with our google apps program.

    Just a FYI in cause the wife dunks her phone in the water again…throw the phone in a bag of dry uncooked rice or a bag with those silica gel packs. It those will grab the water from the phone.
