EXCERPT: Hey, everyone! Do you want a very inexpensive and relatively quick way to build a mini functional crossbow? Well, look no further! Today, I’m going to show you how to build your own tiny crossbow out of common office supplies.

This crossbow will have enough power to drive a “bolt” through a piece of paper, or into a piece of cardboard. What you'll need (Materials in parentheses are those only necessary if you'd like to make it a double crossbow)...
How To Make Money Flipping Phones
http://flippingincome.com/how-to-make-money-flipping-phones/
EXCERPT: This was one of my very first blog posts I’ve written on FlippingIncome but unfortunately back then there was little people who actually read it. I’ve decided to update and retweak everything I’ve written before. How To Make Money Flipping Phones is going over a very specific niche of flipping phones and it is very doable and relevant in today’s mobile age. This step-by-step guide goes over everything you need to do and goes over the 5 steps you need to take to make a successful flip.
Why Phones?
Come on do you really need to ask? The majority of readers of Flipping Income are on their phones and no doubt smartphones are the preferred device the mass majority of people use to browse the internet today. It’s amazing to think only 11 years ago, there were no iPhones or any smart phones at all. Remember the Moto Razr and how cool that was when it came out? To be honest it still is but the capabilities of that phone compared to what we have today is laughable. I am willing to bet our phones today are more powerful than the supercomputers available 20 years ago.
Because of how important phones are to society today, changing your iPhone or Android is no longer a hassle like it was before. Carriers no longer lock you into a 2-year contract and you can change your phone pretty much anytime you wish. So what’s the catch? The extremely high cost. New iPhones and Androids can go upwards of $1000 dollars and even if one chooses to go the leased route, it still means paying $30-40 dollars a month.
How to Make Money Flipping Phones
I think by now you know where I’m heading. Due to the high cost of switching out phones, there are many people that simply live with what they have as long as possible. This includes when their phone breaks or have their screens cracked.
How to make money by flipping phones concentrates on you buying phones at below market value and reselling them a market value. There are a couple of ways you can accomplish this. First is to convince someone who absolutely has no clue on how much their phone is worth to sell you there phone. Second is to buy an “off the truck” phone from Craigslist. And third is to buy phones with cracked screens.
The first two options I listed above are options you should avoid but the third option is viable and can generate a consistent flow of profit if done correctly....

One of my greatest fears is dying alone in my apt and nobody finding out until weeks later when I'm wreaking and laying in my bed in my underwear with drool coming out of my mouth. So undignified. Not that dying in a hospital is any more glorious, but hell a random consoling nurse is better than nobody.

No thanks to those "Help, I've fallen..." TV commercials, I often forget that a medical alert device has a role going beyond just the needs of the elderly.
In terms of voyeur cams... It would be nice / priggish if just one placed in your kitchen could be sufficient. But even if I or one of your culinary fans in the world abroad were watching it 24/7, it might take hours of not seeing you visit the refrigerator or prepare a meal before a firm conclusion of "something's wrong" registered. Thus the traditional peeper audience would have to be appeased with ubiquitous cams.

I have my bottle of chewable low dose Bayer aspirin on the counter. I figure a heart attack could do me in if anything. Your article makes it seem less scary though. There are things I can do with the first signs of one. 911 is definitely the main one. I've had weird transient discomforts in my chest and arm before. But they go away in a matter of minutes. I'll be fine.

Thanks for that. I probably should have been able to work that out but in my bit of Blighty we don't have them. Incidentally I regard your CC Gif's as good and sufficient reason to create the Internet.

Thanks. Endangered fun in an era of the mobile format's data reductions and image stripping.
