If the police or fire department knocked on the front door of your home at this exact moment and gave you 5–10 minutes to evacuate, what would you do? If you heard a tornado warning on the radio or if a tropical storm is suddenly elevated up to hurricane status (leaving you very little time to prepare), do you have a plan?
A disaster or other emergency situation can occur unexpectedly within hours, minutes, or even seconds. Not only should you have a preparedness plan for all the people in your family, but you should have one for your pets! What if taking a little time now means you'll be able to save your pets in the future?
Being prepared before a disaster occurs may give you the few extra minutes you need to save your beloved animal family members. Put together a Pet Emergency Kit today!
- Remember: The safety of people should always be the top priority in an emergency.
- This article isn't discussing first aid kits for pets (even though a pet owner should always have one). This article discusses pet bug-out kits, and they're a necessity if there's an emergency requiring you to evacuate your home. All you'll have to do is grab your pets and the emergency kit and then get out. Your evacuation will be quick, your animals won't need to be left behind in dangerous conditions, and you'll have everything you need to properly care for them while you wait for the disaster to pass.
Things to Consider When Making Your Kit
- Quantity and Type of Pet(s): Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, invertebrates, and aquatics all have different needs and you'll need to pack your pet's bug-out kit accordingly. Another, more heart-wrenching thing to consider involves some pets being easier to evacuate than others. There may be an emergency during which you can only help a couple of your pets instead of all them. It's can be a tough thing to do, but have a plan that encompasses possibilities like this.
- Type of Disaster: Different types of emergencies call for different responses. You need to hunker down in a safe spot during tornadoes and earthquakes but need to evacuate quickly when threatened by a wildfire. Think about the different disasters that could potentially happen to you and plan for them accordingly.
- Accessibility: An emergency kit should be kept somewhere handy and should be easy to access. Storing it in the back of a packed and messy shed won't help you because you may end up wasting valuable time trying to get to it.
- Storage: How much space do you have to store the emergency kit? How much space do you need in order to store all the necessary supplies? How will you be evacuating? Kits can be stored in backpacks, plastic totes/boxes, or other types of containers. Choose a container that will work for you and your family.
Plan for all pets, including mammals, reptiles, birds, aquatics, and invertebrates.
- Store the kit where it cannot be damaged by water or pests (like mice).
- If any of the supplies have the possibility of leaking (such as a bottle of hand sanitizer), store them in seal-able plastic baggies.
- If any of the supplies are easily damaged by water (like medical records and paper towels), also store them in seal-able baggies or containers.
- Food will expire eventually. Routinely throw out or cycle through the food kept in the emergency kit to keep it fresh and healthy for your animals.
Tips on Preparation and Budgeting
- Have travel cages ready beforehand. Keep a dog's or cat's pet carrier assembled, complete with snuggly blanket already inside. For hamsters, reptiles, and other animals, have a travel cage ready to go, including the substrate.
- Consider putting a Rescue Alert Sticker in one of your windows so emergency personnel will know there are animals inside your home (for situations when you're not home). You can order one online entirely for free or you can make one.
- Can't afford extra supplies for a kit? You'll find tons of useful stuff at your local discount or dollar store. Or recycle old things you were going to throw out anyway (old ratty towels make good dog blankets in an emergency). Having anything is better than having nothing. You can also budget $5 a month towards getting supplies and put your kit together over a several months or more.
Suggested Supplies Checklist
Important paperwork (medical records, veterinarian phone numbers, list of boarding kennels or hotels that allow pets, etc)
Photos of your pets (used to prove ownership in the event you are separated)
3-7 days of food (consider including wet canned food for dogs and cats because it has higher moisture content)
Toys & treats
Food and water dishes
Restraint supplies such as extra collars, harnesses, leashes, pet carriers/crates, a pillowcase (used to hold a pet secure while checking it for health issues)
Animal waste disposal: dog poo bags, disposable litter box (an aluminum roasting pan works), litter
Basic first aid supplies
Miscellaneous items such as garbage bags, blankets, paper towels, sanitary wipes, hand sanitizer, flashlight
Reptile/Amphibian/Invertebrate-specific supplies: travel cage, extra substrate, misting bottle for tropical species, water dish, food, water dechlorinator, heating pad or spare basking light, extension cords
Small mammal-specific supplies: travel cage, extra drinking bottles, food, chew toys, toilet paper tube or box for a hide, extra bedding, nesting material
Bird-specific supplies: travel cage, misting bottle (for hot weather), bedding, net, food, water dish, a towel or other sort of cage cover
Example: My Own Pet Emergency Kit
I myself have quite the menagerie of pets, and I love them all dearly. I can't even imagine leaving any one of them behind during an evacuation, which is why I've done my best to prepare beforehand.
In my climate, disasters can include tornadoes, wildfires, flash flooding, blizzards, and perhaps a few others I haven't even thought of. In addition to these, as a kid I lived in hurricane territory, and I can distinctly remember all the steps my parents went through to prepare for those vicious storms.
With those in mind, this is the thought process behind preparing my pets' kit:
- Not only do I have two dogs and a cat, but I also have several turtles, tortoises, tarantulas, hermit crabs, a salamander, a betta fish, and a snail. I planned for all of them, and it wasn't even too difficult!
- My reptiles/amphibians/hermit crabs: Supplies I included in the kit are a couple extension cords (because outlets in hotels are notoriously always out-of-reach), heat lamps, thermostats, moss for maintaining humidity, a misting bottle, dishes, and some freeze-dried food. I also chose appropriately-sized storage containers and tupperware dishes as travel cages because they were a good balance between the most basic needs of the animals and the ease of being able to carry and evacuate them out.
- Example: My tortoises are accustomed to large indoor tortoise tables and huge outdoor pens. But for the sake of being able to save their lives quickly and easily, I opted for stackable plastic drawers which, although a bit small, are still several times the width and length of my pets. The drawers are sturdy, hold substrate well, and maintain a good humidity while still providing ventilation. And because they stack, I can fit them into my car quite easily. Each travel cage is stored out-of-sight in the same room the animals' indoor enclosures are in, ensuring they are quickly accessible.
- My tarantulas: They're already kept in lightweight, easy-to-move, and secure cages. To evacuate them, I only need to stack their enclosures carefully into a box (which I keep nearby).
- My dogs and cat: I packed important paperwork, blankets, treats, one toy each, leashes, a litterbox, dog poo bags, and travel carriers.
- Miscellaneous items: zip ties, trash bags, spare dishes and tupperware containers, a couple bottles of water, anti-bacterial ointment, a saline wound wash, a few paper plates, and hand sanitizer. You never know what might be useful, and they all fit in the kit, so why not?
I appreciate you taking the time to read my article, and I would absolutely love to hear from you! Do you have any fun stories to share about your pets? Are there any articles you'd like to see in the future? Please leave a comment or contact me. And if you have a moment, browse through my other articles.
Leah25 on March 30, 2018:
Thanks for this, best I have seen for evacuating non-mammal pets so far. I have a cat, 2 rabbits, 2 RES turtles and a large fish. I have been trying to start prepping for them and don't think the mammals will be too difficult, but I am wondering if you have any ideas on keeping water turtles and fish going for a few days to a week in plastic totes without electricity... Turtles require there heat and UV lamps and the fish requires oxygenated water...plus I'd have to move them and all our human evacuation gear in my small SUV. Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

Emergencies come in many forms, and they may require anything from a brief absence from your home to permanent evacuation. Each type of disaster requires different measures to keep your pets safe, so the best thing you can do for yourself and your pets is to be prepared. Here are simple steps you can follow now to make sure you’re ready before the next disaster strikes:
Step 1: Get a Rescue Alert Sticker
This easy-to-use sticker will let people know that pets are inside your home. Make sure it is visible to rescue workers (we recommend placing it on or near your front door), and that it includes the types and number of pets in your home as well as the name and number of your veterinarian. If you must evacuate with your pets, and if time allows, write “EVACUATED” across the stickers. To get a free emergency pet alert sticker for your home, please fill out our online order form and allow 6-8 weeks for delivery. Your local pet supply store may also sell similar stickers.
Step 2: Arrange a Safe Haven
Arrange a safe haven for your pets in the event of evacuation. DO NOT LEAVE YOUR PETS BEHIND. Remember, if it isn’t safe for you, it isn’t safe for your pets. They may become trapped or escape and be exposed to numerous life-threatening hazards. Note that not all shelters accept pets, so it is imperative that you have determined where you will bring your pets ahead of time:
- Contact your veterinarian for a list of preferred boarding kennels and facilities.
- Ask your local animal shelter if they provide emergency shelter or foster care for pets.
- Identify hotels or motels outside of your immediate area that accept pets.
- Ask friends and relatives outside your immediate area if they would be willing to take in your pet.
Step 3: Choose "Designated Caregivers”
This step will take considerable time and thought. When choosing a temporary caregiver, consider someone who lives close to your residence. He or she should be someone who is generally home during the day while you are at work or has easy access to your home. A set of keys should be given to this trusted individual. This may work well with neighbors who have pets of their own—you may even swap responsibilities, depending upon who has accessibility.
When selecting a permanent caregiver, you’ll need to consider other criteria. This is a person to whom you are entrusting the care of your pet in the event that something should happen to you. When selecting this “foster parent,” consider people who have met your pet and have successful cared for animals in the past. Be sure to discuss your expectations at length with a permanent caregiver, so he or she understands the responsibility of caring for your pet.
Step 4: Prepare Emergency Supplies and Traveling Kits
If you must evacuate your home in a crisis, plan for the worst-case scenario. Even if you think you may be gone for only a day, assume that you may not be allowed to return for several weeks. When recommendations for evacuation have been announced, follow the instructions of local and state officials. To minimize evacuation time, take these simple steps:
- Make sure all pets wear collars and tags with up-to-date identification information. Your pet’s ID tag should contain his name, telephone number and any urgent medical needs. Be sure to also write your pet’s name, your name and contact information on your pet’s carrier.
- The ASPCA recommends microchipping your pet as a more permanent form of identification. A microchip is implanted under the skin in the animal’s shoulder area, and can be read by a scanner at most animal shelters.
- Always bring pets indoors at the first sign or warning of a storm or disaster. Pets can become disoriented and wander away from home in a crisis.
- Store an emergency kit and leashes as close to an exit as possible. Make sure that everyone in the family knows where it is, and that it clearly labeled and easy to carry. Items to consider keeping in or near your “Evac-Pack” include:
- Pet first-aid kit and guide book (ask your vet what to include)
- 3-7 days’ worth of canned (pop-top) or dry food (be sure to rotate every two months)
- Disposable litter trays (aluminum roasting pans are perfect)
- Litter or paper toweling
- Liquid dish soap and disinfectant
- Disposable garbage bags for clean-up
- Pet feeding dishes and water bowls
- Extra collar or harness as well as an extra leash
- Photocopies and/or USB of medical records and a waterproof container with a two-week supply of any medicine your pet requires (Remember, food and medications need to be rotated out of your emergency kit—otherwise they may go bad or become useless)
- At least seven days’ worth of bottled water for each person and pet (store in a cool, dry place and replace every two months)
- A traveling bag, crate or sturdy carrier, ideally one for each pet
- Recent photos of your pets (in case you are separated and need to make “Lost” posters)
- Especially for cats: Pillowcase, toys, scoop-able litter
- Especially for dogs: Extra leash, toys and chew toys, a week’s worth of cage liner
You should also have an emergency kit for the human members of the family. Items to include: Batteries, duct tape, flashlight, radio, multi-tool, tarp, rope, permanent marker, spray paint, baby wipes, protective clothing and footwear, extra cash, rescue whistle, important phone numbers, extra medication and copies of medical and insurance information.
Geographic Considerations: If you live in an area that is prone to certain natural disasters, such as tornadoes, earthquakes or floods, you should plan accordingly.
- Determine well in advance which rooms offer safe havens. These rooms should be clear or hazards such as windows, flying debris, etc.
- Choose easy-to-clean areas such as utility rooms, bathrooms and basements as safe zones
- Access to a supply of fresh water is particularly important. In areas that may lose electricity, fill up bathtubs and sinks ahead of time to ensure that you have access to water during a power outage or other crises.
- In the event of flooding, go to the highest location in your home, or a room that has access to counters or high shelves where your animals can take shelter.
Special Considerations for Horses
- Keep a clean and tidy stable and pasture. Remove hazardous and flammable materials, debris and machinery from around the barn’s walkways, entrances and exits. Regularly maintain and inspect barn floors and septic tanks. Inspect your grounds regularly and remove dangerous debris in the pasture.
- Prevent fires by instituting a no-smoking policy around your barn. Avoid using or leaving on appliances in the barn, even seemingly-harmless appliances like box fans, heaters and power tools can overheat. Exposed wiring can also lead to electrical fires in the barn, as can a simple nudge from an animal who accidentally knocks over a machine.
- Get your horse used to wearing a halter, and get him used to trailering. Periodically, you should practice quickly getting your horse on a trailer for the same reason that schools have fire drills—asking a group of unpracticed children to exit a burning building in a calm fashion is a little unrealistic, as is requesting a new and strange behavior of your horse.
- If you own a trailer, please inspect it regularly. Also, make sure your towing vehicle is appropriate for the size and weight of the trailer and horse. Always make sure the trailer is hitched properly—the hitch locked on the ball, safety chains or cables attached, and emergency brake battery charged and linked to towing vehicle. Proper tire pressure (as shown on the tire wall) is also very important.
- Get your horse well-socialized and used to being handled by all kinds of strangers. If possible, invite emergency responders and/or members of your local fire service to interact with your horse. It will be mutually beneficial for them to become acquainted. Firemen’s turnout gear may smell like smoke and look unusual, which many horses find frightening—so ask them to wear their usual response gear to get your horse used to the look and smell.
- Set up a phone tree/buddy system with other nearby horse owners and local farms. This could prove invaluable should you—or they—need to evacuate animals or share resources like trailers, pastures or extra hands!
- Keep equine veterinary records in a safe place where they can quickly be reached. Be sure to post emergency phone numbers by the phone. Include your 24-hour veterinarian, emergency services and friends. You should also keep a copy for emergency services personnel in the barn that includes phone numbers for you, your emergency contact, your 24-hour veterinarian and several friends.
Special Considerations for Birds
- Birds should be transported in a secure travel cage or carrier.
- In cold weather, make certain you have a blanket over your pet’s cage. This may also help reduce the stress of traveling.
- In warm weather, carry a spray bottle to periodically moisten your bird’s feathers.
- Have recent photos available, and keep your bird’s leg bands on for identification.
- If the carrier does not have a perch, line it for paper towels that you can change frequently.
- Keep the carrier in as quiet an area as possible.
- It is particularly imperative that birds eat on a daily basis, so purchase a timed feeder. If you need to leave your bird unexpectedly, the feeder will ensure his daily feeding schedule.
- Items to keep on hand: Catch net, heavy towel, blanket or sheet to cover cage, cage liner.
Special Considerations for Reptiles
- A snake may be transported in a pillowcase, but you should have permanent and secure housing for him when you reach a safe place.
- Take a sturdy bowl that is large for your pet to soak in. It’s also a good idea to bring along a heating pad or other warming devise, such as a hot water bottle.
- Lizards can be transported like birds (see above).
Special Considerations for Small Animals
- Small animals, such as hamsters, gerbils, mice and guinea pigs, should be transported in secure carriers with bedding materials, food and food bowls.
- Items to keep on hand: Salt lick, extra water bottle, small hidebox or tube, a week’s worth of bedding.
Pet Safety in Emergencies
Emergencies come in many forms: fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, violent storms and even terrorism. In the event of extreme weather or a disaster, would you know what to do to protect your pet? Leaving pets out of evacuation plans can put pets, pet owners, and first responders in danger. Even if you try to create a safe place for them, pets left behind during a disaster are likely to be injured, lost, or worse. Be prepared: make a plan and prepare a disaster kit for your pet.
To get started, familiarize yourself with the types of disasters that could affect your area and consider your options for providing care for your pet(s).
Disasters can happen without warning, so be prepared:
- Make sure your pet(s) wear collars and tags with up-to-date contact information and other identification.
- Microchip your pet(s) – this is one of the best ways to ensure that you and your pet are reunited if you are separated. Always be sure to register the microchip with the manufacturer and keep your contact information up to date with the microchip company.
- Keep a leash and/or carrier near the exit.
- Make sure you have proper equipment for pets to ride in the car (carriers, harnesses, pet seatbelts).
- Prepare a Pet Disaster Kitso evacuation will go smoothly for your entire family. Ask your veterinarian for help in putting together your pet’s veterinary records.
Make a Plan
- Plan where you and your pet will stay in case you need to evacuate your home. Pets may not be allowed in local shelters, unless they are service animals. Many disaster evacuation centers (such as Red Cross evacuation centers) do not accept pets and other animals.
- Identify shelters or out-of-town friends or relatives where your pets and other animals can stay.
- Locate boarding facilities or animal hospitals near your evacuation shelter and in the case you are unable to return home right away.
- Create a buddy system in case you’re not home during an emergency. Ask a trusted neighbor who can check on your animals and can evacuate your animals if necessary.
- Locate a veterinarian or animal hospital in the area where you may be seeking temporary shelter and add the veterinarian’s contact information to your emergency kit.
Create an emergency kit for your pet
Prepare an emergency kit for your pet ahead of time.
- Purchase a pet carrier for each of your pets (write your pet’s name, your name, and contact information on each carrier).
- Food and water for at least 2 weeks for each pet
- For cats: litter box and litter
- For dogs: plastic bags for poop
- Medications for at least 2 weeks
- Medical records, including record of vaccination for rabies and other diseases, prescription medications, and medical history.
- Sturdy leashes or harnesses
- Microchip number
- Contact information (cell phone, work phone, home phone) of owner and close relative or friends
Practice evacuating your pet
- Train your pets to be in their carriers by making it a comfortable place.
- Practice transporting your pet by taking them for rides in a vehicle similar to one you would be evacuating in. If you do not have a car, make arrangements with neighbors, family, and friends. You can also contact your local government to learn about transportation options during a disaster.
- Know where your pet might hide when stressed or scared. Practice catching your pet, if needed.
- For cats, you can practice removing your cat from his/her hiding spot and using your cat’s carrier, a pillowcase, a sturdy box — anything to get your cat quickly out of harm’s way.
- Have your entire family practice evacuating with your pets so everyone knows what to take, where to find the pets, and where to meet.
If you don’t have a plan and need information quickly in an emergency, contact:

Sheltering during an evacuation
- Remember, during a disaster, what is good for you is good for your pet. If you leave your pets behind, they may be lost, injured – or worse. Never leave a pet chained outdoors.
- Contact your local emergency management office and ask if they offer accommodations for owners and their pets. If accommodations are needed for your pet(s):
- Contact local veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, local animal shelters, family or friends outside the evacuation area, or a pet-friendly hotel, particularly along evacuation routes.
- Visit the Humane Society websiteexternal icon external icon to find a shelter in your area.
- Remember to take your pet’s emergency kit with you.
- Learn what to expect if you take your pet to an evacuation center.
Sheltering in place
When sheltering at home with your pet, make sure the room chosen is pet-friendly in the following ways:
- Select a safe room, preferably an interior room with no (or few) windows.
- Remove any toxic chemicals or plants.
- Close off small areas where frightened cats could get stuck in (such as vents or beneath heavy furniture).
Diseases that can spread between pets and people during a natural disaster
Natural disasters can contribute to the transmission of some diseases. Exposure to inclement weather conditions, stagnant water, wildlife or unfamiliar animals, and overcrowding can put your pet at risk for getting sick. Some of these illnesses can be transmitted between pets and people (also known as zoonotic diseases or zoonoses). Some common disaster-related diseases that pets can pass to people are the following: rabies, leptospirosis, and diseases spread by mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks.
- Rabies is a virus that affects the nervous system in both animals and people. Rabies is transmitted through bites from rabid animals or through contact with their saliva. To protect you and your pet: Report any bite wounds to medical personnel immediately. Practice safe handling of pets in a stressful situation. Keep your pet in a carrier or on a leash. Do not allow your pet to interact with other animals
- Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease found in the urine of infected animals that can cause kidney damage and affect other organs. It is transmitted through contact with infected urine or contaminated water, soil, and food. Wash your hands after coming in contact with urine. Avoid stagnant water, especially after flooding occurring after natural disasters. Don’t allow pets to play in or drink contaminated water.
- Diseases spread by mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks: Mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks are common pests of stray animals and can be a problem immediately following a disaster situation. Their bites irritate the skin and may also spread a variety of diseases (Lyme disease, West Nile virus) harmful to both people and animals. To help prevent illnesses associated with mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks: Keep your pet away from wildlife and stray animals. Talk to your veterinarian about the use of a regular preventative treatment for fleas, ticks, and parasites for your pet.
How to Keep Yourself and Your Pets Healthy During a Disaster
- Wash your hands after handling your pet, its food, or its waste.
- Do not let your pet lick your face or hands.
- Keep your pet up-to-date on all vaccinations and heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives.
- Practice safe handling of your pet, because your pet may behave differently during a stressful situation.
- Keep your pet in a carrier or on a leash.
- Do not allow your pet to interact with other animals, especially wildlife and stray animals.
- Report any bite wounds to medical personnel immediately.
- Properly clean and disinfect cages and litterboxes. Wash your pet’s bedding regularly.
- Avoid stagnant water, especially after flooding occurring after natural disasters.
- Don’t allow pets to play in or drink contaminated water.
After an emergency, familiar scents and landmarks may have changed. Pets can become confused and lost, so it’s important to keep pets on leash or in a carrier when they’re being transported or when you go outside. Some hazards to be aware of for pets and people include snakes and other wildlife, especially after flooding, and downed power lines.
Know Your Region’s Native Disasters
Is your region prone to hurricanes? What about tornadoes, blizzards or wildfires? Most regions have “native” disasters that occur more often than others.
Hurricanes are common on the Gulf Coast, for example, but they’re unlikely to see the wildfires or earthquakes common in California.
Identifying the most common natural disasters is a good place to start.
If you live in a hurricane-prone area, check your property's elevation level and flood history. It's also smart to get familiar with local evacuation routes.
This will help you build an effective plan for you and your pet.
Pet First Aid Kit
Although most human first aid kits will have the basic supplies and many things are interchangeable, you should make a pet based first aid kit so you have all the supplies you need in any emergency or critical situation.
Having a separate pet first aid kit will also keep any cross contamination at bay during treatment. Brushing up on pet CPR would be a smart move in addition to packing a pet BOB and first aid kit.
Here are the basics for constructing your pet’s first aid kit:
- Hypoallergenic tape and sports tape
- Sterile eye wash
- Vaseline or other petroleum type jelly
- Triple antibacterial ointment
- 1% hydrocortisone cream
- Rubbing alcohol
- Witch hazel for ears
- Antihistamine spray and stick up pills like Benadryl (it can also act as a sedative in emergencies)
- Aspirin (buffered type)
- Pepto bismol dry tablets
- Imodium ID for intestinal distress
- Kaopectate tablets
- “Hot spot” spray or foaming sanitizer
- Cotton swabs and squares
- Ace bandages or non-stick wrap style bandages
- Scissors with blunt tips for the bandages
- Pediolyte for electrolytes (to avoid dehydration)
- Muzzle for safety
- Thermometer for rectal temperature
- Needle and nylon thread (dental floss in an emergency)
- Honey packs for fast acting energy to the liver to avoid shock

A Few More Things to Consider
Pets can prove to be very useful in SHTF or survivalist situations. We know they can defend the home. They also can provide some necessary services that can help on a homestead, so it is prudent to think on the pros and cons.
To me, I cannot think of not taking them. In some situations, people may need to decide. They may have limited choices and it is a very weighty decision to make.
Pros of Pets
- Pets provide a very uncanny sensory tool. They can sense intentions, vibrations and disturbances well before a human can. Being in tune with a pet, it can be an early warning system for environmental happenings. Pets also can detect intent and warn about danger and dangerous people if you listen.
- Insulator contact heat there’s something to be said for having a living heating pad inside your sleeping bag.
- Companion and emotional support in many crises, having another soul can be very comforting. This also can motivate you to go on when you know this little life depends on you.
- Security and vigilance with a pet’s hearing, scent, and sight so much more powerful than ours, it is an early detection system and one we can learn the silent signs of.
- Hunting ability many sports were evolved from the pet’s ability to hunt game and retrieve it for the sole reason of food. Having this resource that is swifter and happy to do it will go far in gathering much needed game for survival.
Cons of Pets
- Splitting rations sharing food and water will be something to think on.
- Detection if you do not train your pet, barking or running free could blow your cover and bring undesirables your way.
- Scaring off game again if not trained, he may have too much fun and scare away game with barking, exploring their trails, or urine scenting.

I'm currently playing with small uni-polar steppers. 12v taken from 5.25 floppy drives and other small steppers from printers and hard drives. Really just trying to learn about it, not build the ultimate machine. At this time.
I have a 27v transformer that I wish to power the 12v stepper with. Therefore I'm learning choppers and PWM with my pics and stand-alone comparators and such.
Here are my questions/reasonings:
1. I measure about 68ohms across my unipolar, that is double coils for more torque. Therefore I could calculate the desired voltage between the ground side of the motor and a current sense resistor using the voltage divider formula?
2. I can also just run 12v across two coils of the stepper and measure the voltage at the bottom side before a current sense resistor.
3. Using the voltage measured at #1 or #2 I can set my comparator to turn off when it exceeds that voltage, i.e. 27v is applied to the stepper and it rises beyond the 12v value.
4. What is a good value for a current sensing resistor? Can I get away with only 1 ohm or is that too small?
5. Can I take my voltage measurement after the coil selecting transistors and still get an ok result?
Thanks in advance.

Never before have I been so compelled to continue playing a game. I know that’s a big, bold statement with which to start a review and I wouldn’t make a claim like that too lightly. I want you all to understand that I’ve already put hours into Dragon Age: Origins and I’m nowhere near completion yet. In fact, at last check, I’ve only explored around 40% of the game world. Ordinarily it is very bad practice to review a game that you haven’t completed but with huge RPGs I think we get a little leeway. I will say this: I have played this game for almost thirty hours, probably more than thirty by the time you read this review. It’s huge and I can’t stop going back to it.
Dragon Age: Origins is the kind of game you put on when you have a spare hour after the evening’s TV and the next time you look at the clock it’s three in the morning and you’re dreaming up excuses to stay off work for the day.
The setting is, perhaps, a familiar one. The game takes place in the high-fantasy world of Ferelden, filled with Elves, Dwarves, Mages, Sylvans, Werewolves and any other fantasy race you might care to imagine. For reasons which unravel as you play there is a dark and sinister invasion occurring which is referred to as “The Blight”. Evil is seeping into your world and you must choose a class and a skill path before you embark upon your journey to save it.
So let’s take a look at the world of Ferelden. To begin with you may notice a few rough edges around the textures and character models (on Xbox 360 – I have heard that the PC version is much better and the PS3 version is allegedly slightly better). It is easy to see this is an issue but in truth I think that in such an expansive world the odd rough edge is easily forgiven. I can also completely forgive the very minor clipping issues on character armour. There is simply so much variation that to account for every possible permutation would be impossible.
It may be a little more upsetting that random battles are usually set in one of a small number of generic areas but to be fair those areas are well modelled, well laid out and are much better than the usual backdrop for random battles in an RPG. Each map is also fairly linear so rather than a free-roaming RPG this often feels more like a slightly expanded Dungeon Crawler with multiple paths which are reasonably narrow and clearly defined.
The actual game-world is built on familiar themes of oppression and age-old divisions in culture and religion. Bioware have done an exemplary job of putting you into a world which feels as though it has always existed, with plenty of interplay between characters and a lot of back-story to uncover. There is a rich history which you pick up via Codex discoveries and character interactions. That’s a little understated, in fact. There are probably hours of reading in the codex so if you want to know the full ins-and-outs of Ferelden, including political, social and religious mythology, you will have the opportunity.
For fans of the Role Playing genre (or the old PC “dungeon crawlers” that Dragon Age is so heavily based upon) the mechanics will be familiar. You start the game by choosing a race – Human, Elf or Dwarf. Then you must choose Nobility or peasantry for your character. There are six possible combinations of “origin story” across all races, each unique, so already the game is branching and changing depending on your options. The further choice of class or career path for your character decides whether you will become a warrior, rogue or mage. Then you begin to customize your character’s appearance before setting off into the world where Experience Points earned in combat, via dialogue or by feats of skill will allow you to level-up and add character specialisation and talents. Within a short period of time your character will be totally different from the character your friend has forged and each difference has a real and discernable effect on the game.
This brings us to the actual game-play mechanics. The console version uses a radial wheel which opens via a shoulder button and selects from the radial menu with the left stick. The game pauses while you have the radial menu open so you have plenty of time to make your selections. Another shoulder button will jump between characters so you can fine-tune their approach to battle but in most cases the excellent tactics system will take care of them for you. This is found in the inventory screens and allows you to set a number of “IF/THEN” options for your characters. For example you can tell your archer that IF he is being attacked by melee THEN change to his melee weapon set (each character has two weapon-sets) and fight back. The depth and variation of commands you can give in the limited (but upgrading as you level) tactics slots is astonishing and really helps with the flow of a game which would otherwise be a constant case of radial menu pauses and character switching (which is still a fairly big feature of game-play).
Without spoiling anything I can tell you that the storyline arc of Dragon Age: Origins is epic. That word is often used these days but in Dragon Age it gets closer to its literal meaning than in most cases. The story is a huge, over-arching tale of treachery, love, oppression and evil. You must unite the races and save the world. I don’t want to give too much away (and I’m aware that there are hopefully still twists and secrets I have yet to reveal) but there is a reality and a depth to the storytelling which is rarely achieved in video games.
Most of the story exposition comes via the branching dialogue system, which is abundant in Dragon Age. There are a great deal of options and the interactions really do change and evolve depending on the answers you give or the questions you ask. Not only that but each of your four party members (you can have more squad members that wait for you in a camp so you can vary your four-man travelling party from time to time) will have an opinion based on how you handle yourself and the decisions you make. Fail to keep them impressed and they will eventually either walk away or challenge you for your leadership. Impress them and you could be talking your way into “relations”. You can also appease party members by presenting them with gifts from your inventory. Each personality will have favoured gifts and their opinions of you will change accordingly.
It is difficult to convey the sense of scale that Dragon Age presents the player with. There are multiple side-quests and a vast array of micro-management options which you might assume would distract you into the tiny technicalities but if there is ever a time when you get too entrenched in the smaller side-questing one of your companions will remind you of the larger task at hand. You are kept constantly aware of the plight of people in Ferelden on both the smaller scale and the global scale. You can reunite single families on your way to reuniting entire races. You can steal a coin from someone’s pocket before stealing a priceless relic.
- Massive game-world with a huge number of quests.
- Great setting and well-realised world.
- Tight tactical approach to squad-based combat and looting.
- Masses of dialogue can become a drag if you just came for the combat.
- Generic settings for random battles.
- Minor graphical issues.
Verdict: Dragon Age: Origins is a triumph of a game. It has depth and scale which will keep you interested for many, many hours. There are slight issues that I could pick at but in all honesty the intricate game-play and immense storyline immersion counteract any minor niggles I may have to the point where they are almost completely forgotten. If you don’t like RPGs or dungeon crawlers then you will probably find Dragon Age completely baffling but if you are a fan of the genre then it is simply unmissable. Every gamer who takes their hobby past yearly sports iterations or online First Person Shooters should experience this game. It is a definite contender for Game of the Year 2009 which I will almost certainly still be playing well into 2010.

ORISE report shows an unexpected decline in 2009 in nuclear engineering degrees but the largest enrollment since the mid-1980s.
OAK RIDGE — Reversing a more than five-year growth trend, the number of nuclear engineering undergraduate and graduate degrees earned in the United States declined in 2009, says a recent report from the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education.
Future growth in the number of nuclear engineering graduates is likely, however, because of 2009’s growth in enrollment, the ORISE report said.
The ORISE report, Nuclear Engineering Enrollments and Degrees Survey, 2009 Data, surveyed 32 U.S. academic programs and included students majoring in nuclear engineering or a program equivalent to a major.
B.S. degrees decreased in 2009 after five consecutive years of increases and were 13 percent fewer than in 2008. The number of graduate degrees earned was down 10 percent over 2008, after six consecutive years of increases. The ORISE report calls the decrease in graduate degrees unexpected as graduate enrollments have grown since 2001.
According to the report, a total of 715 nuclear engineering B.S., M.S. and Ph.D degrees were earned in 2009.
Richard Toohey, associate director of Oak Ridge Associated Universities’ Independent Environmental Assessment and Verification Program, believes long-term trends will continue to be positive. “B.S. and M.S. degrees are most in demand in the nuclear industry and government agencies today to staff up for the inevitable nuclear renaissance,” said Toohey, who is also a recent past president of the National Health Physics Society.
Additionally, the ORISE report breakdown showed the University of Michigan led the way in numbers of B.S. degrees, with 37 earned in 2009. Two schools tied in highest numbers of M.S. degrees. Georgia Institute of Technology and Massachusetts Institute of Technology each granted 24.

We’re pretty excited about the potential (and ever growing reality) of the SCORM Cloud. Over the last year or two, besides putting the SCORM Cloud services out there for use, we created tools to plug into it. The biggest of these is the SCORM Cloud website. Besides the SCORM Cloud site, we produced integrations for open source learning systems such as Moodle and Sakai, we created a plugin that integrates with WordPress, and we even created an application to work within the Google Apps for Domains.
But this isn’t about those applications. This is about the code behind those applications.
Each of those integrations includes a key element that aids in the integration process. They all use an API library to communicate with the SCORM Cloud. Over the years, we have written a few libraries to make working with the API easier. These libraries cover 4 different languages: Java, C#, Python, and PHP.
After 18 months of building libraries that sort of look alike and sort of cover all the basic functionalities of the SCORM Cloud, we found that maintaining these libraries was becoming difficult, and using them was more difficult than it needed to be.
We therefore spent the last month creating some uniformity across the libraries and filling out basic functions where they were lacking. We have also created and filled in samples for the basic calls in each of the languages so that you can see how things should work using the libraries.
We also have new documentation available for building integrations. The new API documentation hasn’t really changed much in content, but the libraries documentation now covers the calls that exist uniformly across all libraries. In addition, we have put all of the libraries out on a public repository on github, where anyone can download them and even contribute to the projects.
The libraries don’t yet provide exhaustive coverage of the full breadth of the SCORM Cloud API, but they do cover enough to create a well functioning application capable of managing courses and training via the SCORM Cloud. (As a hint, the Java library is most complete – that’s what our SCORM Cloud site uses.) With that said, we welcome input about areas that are lacking or could use improvement. Whether you fill in the holes or you just let us know what they are, we want these libraries to be living projects and we want them to be extremely useful and effective.
If you are new to developing for the SCORM Cloud, the best place to start is here. If you have ideas, comments, or questions, then the forums are a great place for you. We want to know how you want to use the SCORM Cloud. Don’t be a stranger.

Dubai's DAE slashes jet orders
Paris, August 6, 2010
Airbus said on Friday it had more than doubled its year-to-date orders due to a bumper Farnborough Airshow, but the pick-up was marred by the cancellation of $3 billion of orders from Dubai Aerospace Enterprise.
The Dubai-based lessor slashed an order for 100 Airbus passenger jets by 25 percent in volume terms, shedding 18 orders for narrow-body A320 planes and 7 orders for A350-900 mid-sized jets, figures released by the European planemaker showed.
The move brings to more than $8 billion the catalogue value of apparent DAE cancellations, totalling 50 aircraft, revealed in Airbus and Boeing data published in the past 24 hours.
Neither planemaker agreed to comment on cancellations. DAE was not available for comment.
Leasing companies were hard hit during the financial crisis though some returned with bulk orders for narrow-body planes at last months' Farnborough trade show, which delivered unexpectedly robust evidence of an economic turnaround.
There have been several specialist industry reports that part of DAE's order portfolio would be transferred to Dubai's Emirates Airline, which ordered 30 more 777s at Farnborough.
Excluding the effect of cancellations, Airbus said its cumulative 2010 orders jumped sharply to 286 planes by the end of July from 131 planes in the first half of the year. Deliveries reached 298 aircraft. The EADS subsidiary is targeting over 400 sales and 500 deliveries.
On Thursday, Boeing data revealed cancellations for 25 jets worth over $5 billion at catalogue prices. Comparisons with previously published data suggested the cuts came from DAE.
DAE had ordered 15 787-8 Dreamliners and 10 777-300ER aircraft in 2007, at the peak of a global order boom. Boeing's latest backlog did not include any such wide-body passenger jets for the leasing and repair firm. It did however have 91 unfilled DAE orders for narrow-body jets and freighters.
DAE also still has 52 Airbus A320 planes and 23 A350-900s, a model designed to compete with the Boeing Dreamliner, on order with a total list value of $10 billion at current prices.
Airbus sales chief John Leahy said at Farnborough that it was 'no secret' that DAE was facing disruption over its orders. After adjusting for total cancellations in the past month, Airbus reported a net total of 245 new orders in the first seven months of the year, up from 117 by the end of June.
The data leaves Boeing ahead of its rival in the race for 2010 orders as the industry exits recession, though it still ranks in second place behind Airbus in terms of production.
Boeing said it had received total orders for 319 planes between January and July, and a net total of 255 planes after adjusting for cancellations. The net orders include 229 narrow-body Boeing 737 short-haul and medium-haul planes. - Reuters

Hunger peaked at a record high during the pandemic, with 34% of all LA County households reporting food insecurity. People of Color shouldered the burden of hunger at disproportionately high rates, illuminating how structural racism has produced a fragile and insufficient food system. Motivated by this incredible hardship, the County of Los Angeles and LA-based foundations, who have long partnered in support of food and nutrition security, mobilized to disburse resources and provide leadership through an unprecedented private-public partnership. This new partnership will address food system inequities that existed long before the pandemic and that persist to this day. This plan will play a key role towards supporting the White House goal of ending hunger and diet-related disease by 2030.
In February 2021, the LA County Chief Sustainability Office, Annenberg Foundation, California Community Foundation, and Weingart Foundation came together to support a motion to pilot the Los Angeles Food Equity Roundtable- a committee of 20 cross-sector leaders dedicated to achieving equity in food systems across LA County.
Co-Chaired by Cinny Kennard, Executive Director of the Annenberg Foundation, and Ali Frazzini, Sustainability Policy Advisor for the LA County Chief Sustainability Office, the Roundtable is committed to ending food and nutrition insecurity in LA County by:
In addition to the Roundtable members, over 200 thought partners dedicated to social justice and food equity participated in working groups and listening tours, which informed the objectives, strategies, and actions outlined in this plan. We will work with our cross-sector partners representing government agencies, community-based organizations, academia, the private sector, and other local and national thought leaders to achieve our common mission. Though food insecurity was a crisis long before the pandemic, together, we can end it.

Why do I need a root canal?
Inside your teeth is soft tissue containing nerves called the dental pulp, or tooth pulp. When the pulp is unable to heal itself from an injury or a disease, it’s removal can save the tooth.
Things like a crack or fracture, even a deep cavity in a tooth are common causes of pulp damage or pulp death. It’s often just the simple exposure of bacteria in your saliva to the pulp which can cause an infection in the dental pulp, and once infected it’s easy for the infection to spread to surround teeth and tissues.
To save the tooth with the problem and to prevent the spread of the problem to other areas in your mouth, your dentist will recommend root canal treatment.
What actually is root canal treatment?
Also called endodontic treatment, a root canal is the name for the process of removing infected or dead pulp from the inside of your tooth.
Basically, your dentist drills into the tooth to expose the tooth pulp and then with a special tool gently scrapes out the dental pulp. To ensure that the infection is completely removed your dentist will carefully clean out the entire interior of your tooth and then apply special medications to prevent reinfections.
Then a temporary covering (temporary dental crown or in some cases a temporary filling) is put in place to cover up the whole in your tooth the dentist made. You then have a period where you allow your body to repair and adjust before getting a final dental crown put on the tooth.
This period of rest in between the first treatment and getting the final crown or filling are to allow your dentist to see if you get another infection because there is an even deeper problem that needs to be attended to or not.
How long will I keep my tooth after a root canal?
The length of time varies depending on your oral health – particularly the gums and tissues around the treated tooth. If you have good supply to your gums so that the root gets nourishment then it’s possible for your root canal treated tooth to last a lifetime.

The new rules of adoption combined with fewer available children have caused the slowdown, says Pertman. The Hague convention “caused a real shake-up” because a lot of social agencies in developing countries simply can’t comply. And scandals in Guatemala and Romania, and China’s rethink of its pro-adoption policies, dramatically reduced the supply of adoptable children. The result, he says, is “a very long wait period.”
Guatemala’s scandals resulted in the moratorium on international adoption. Likewise, while Haiti deals with the postquake tsunami of international requests to adopt orphaned children, and as it processes the case of the arrested missionaries, it has become acutely aware of the weakness of its documentation process. (“If a child isn’t registered, the child doesn’t exist,” says Jennifer Bakody, UNICEF communications officer in Haiti. “Then there’s no way to protect the child, he/she is really lost from the system.” And that’s how good intentions can turn into scandal.)
So the Haitian government has announced a shutdown of all adoptions, partly out of caution but partly out of necessity – its main adoption judge was killed in the quake and government documents have been lost in the chaos. But international adoption officials in Port-au-Prince report that irregularities continue in the chaos: The Haitian government declared that adoptions in process could only be signed off by the prime minister, but it’s clear that some adoptions continue with other ministers signing off.
International authorities are encouraging Haiti not to attempt adoptions at the moment. A country like Haiti needs to rebuild before it gets into the business of helping find individual homes for adoptable children, Ms. Bissell argues.

Consumer confidence rebounded in March.
The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index improved this month after decreasing in February. The Index is now at 96.2, up from 94 last month. The present situation component slipped to 113.5 from 115, while the expectations portion of the index rose to 84.7 from 79.9.
Lynn Franco, director of economic indicators at The Conference Board, said, “Consumers’ assessment of current conditions posted a moderate decline, while expectations regarding the short-term turned more favorable as last month’s turmoil in the financial markets appears to have abated. On balance, consumers do not foresee the economy gaining any significant momentum in the near-term, nor do they see it worsening.”
The Conference Board’s survey had a cutoff date of March 17 for preliminary results.
According to the responses, consumers’ appraisal of current conditions eased in March. Those who said business conditions were “good” fell to 24.9 percent from 26.5 percent. Those who said business conditions were “bad” dipped to 18.8 percent from 19 percent. Consumers’ appraisal of the labor market were mixed, with those who said jobs are “plentiful” rose to 25.4 percent from 22.8 percent. However, the respondents who said jobs are “hard to get” rose to 26.6 percent from 23.6 percent.
The expectations index showed consumers were more optimistic about conditions six months out. Those who said they expect business conditions to improve over the next six months inched up to 15 percent from 14.5 percent. Those who said they expect business conditions to worsen fell to 9.2 percent from 11.6 percent.
That confidence was also evident in consumers’ responses about the labor front. Respondents who said they expect more jobs in the months ahead increased slightly to 12.9 percent from 12.2 percent. Those who anticipate fewer jobs fell to 16.3 percent from 17.7 percent.
Even though consumers were more optimistic about the labor market, they were slightly less upbeat about their own income levels. The number of consumers who said they expect their income to go up slipped to 17.2 percent from 17.7 percent, while the number anticipating a reduction in income edged up slightly to 11.8 percent from 11.6 percent.

Gambling is an activity that involves risking money, or an item of value, on a chance event. The person who predicts the outcome correctly gets the money, while the person who predicts the wrong result loses.
Gambling is often done for social reasons, to have fun, to socialize, or to challenge one’s intellect. Some gambling activities are regulated by the government. In some cases, the government will tax or collect revenue from the gambling. These include lottery, sports betting, casinos, and parimutuel wagering.
A number of states have laws that prohibit certain forms of gambling. For example, in Washington state, gambling is prohibited unless it is authorized by state law. Several other jurisdictions heavily regulate gambling. However, some forms of gambling are legal, such as tribal gaming.
Lotteries and horse racing are the two most common forms of gambling. State-licensed lotteries have expanded rapidly throughout the United States and Europe during the last several decades.
Gambling is an important commercial activity, and the amount of money legally wagered is estimated to be over $10 trillion each year. Because of this, governments have become closely connected with gambling organizations. There are many types of regulation, including state and federal laws. Although the federal government has taken some steps to control the activity, it is up to each individual to decide when to stop gambling.
It is important to be aware of the risks and consequences of gambling. If you think you have a problem, it is always best to seek help. Counseling is available and free. You can also contact a National Helpline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357).
Gambling disorders are characterized by an inability to resist the urge to gamble. The disorder can be caused by trauma, family and friend influence, and other social conditions. Symptoms of the disorder may begin in adolescence or later in life. Fortunately, there is a variety of treatment options, including cognitive behavioral therapy, group therapy, and psychodynamic therapy.
Gambling is often accompanied by feelings of euphoria and excitement. This is due to the fact that the activity causes a change in the brain’s reward system. Despite the positive aspects of gambling, it is not advisable for anyone to engage in it.
Gambling can be a good way to socialize and relieve stress, but it is not a good way to make money. When you gamble, you are betting against your own interests. Unless you are willing to win big, you will end up losing. And because of the possibility of loss, it is best to be realistic about the odds.
There are many factors that can lead to a gambling disorder. People are more likely to develop a problem when they are younger. Studies indicate that men are more susceptible than women to developing compulsive gambling. Compulsive gambling can occur in young adults, middle-aged adults, and older adults. Symptoms can develop over time, and people can become a problem even if they only gamble occasionally.
Generally, the more you gamble, the more you will be susceptible to a gambling disorder. To prevent this, be careful and postpone gambling. Regardless of whether you play for money or for fun, be sure to budget for the cost of gambling.

Using a new CCD system, we have detected tiny sunspots, which we term "micropores," associated with elements of the magnetic network far from active regions. The smallest micropores detected are less than 1″ in diameter and about half the size of the associated magnetic feature. We find that the pore size is systematically smaller than the size of magnetic element seen in the magnetograms, but the ratio of pore size versus magnetic element size is independent of pore size, suggesting that the difference is real. For the smaller elements there is a good linear relation between the brightness deficit of the pore and the total flux of the magnetic element. The micropores are distinguishable from dark lanes in the granulation by their long life, large brightness deficit, and association with magnetic fields.

Bouncing back from the impact of war involves not only rethinking and reshaping policies to repair social, cultural and economic infrastructures, but requires concerted efforts to restore damaged biodiversity and degraded landscapes.
During the Vietnam War (1955-1975), which is known in Vietnam as the American War, vast tracts of land were decimated by massive quantities of chemical defoliants that were sprayed on forests and fields during U.S. military operations.
Reforestation initiatives began in the 1980s. By 2000, 2 million hectares of forest had been planted. These efforts increased over the years and the country now has 4.2 million hectares of planted forests, equal to 26 percent of the total forested area of 14.6 million hectares.
