Cool gift, only $30:
Solar-Powered, Self-Powered AM/FM/Weatherband Portable Radio with Flashlight and Cell Phone Charger
The Microlink brings together some of the most popular features of our Voicelink, in a more compact design. This ultra-portable device is ideal to have on hand when you’re roughing it. It also makes a great addition to any emergency-preparedness kit. No plugs or wires are required. Instead, turn the hand crank to power the Microlink, or capture the sun’s energy and run it on solar power. You’ll always know what’s going on, thanks to the AM, FM, and weather bands. You can also tune in to the FCC and EAS public alert systems. Add the flashlight, the cell phone charger and you’ve got one versatile little device. You'll be prepared for any emergency, and there's an added benefit - each radio includes American Red Cross disaster preparedness tips!

I haven’t listened, sounds interesting, if they are not all hung up on “Bush did it”.
Most of the stuff they say Bush did, was done by Clinton.
The Concentration camps are Clinton and it was Clinton who messed up FEMA.
When Clinton took office, FEMA was for the study of disasters and produced maps, that showed things like projected 100 and 500 years danger of floods..............I know, as I used the maps in my real estate office and still have a box of them in my storage room.
One wall of my office was the FEMA flood maps, so people could see what they are buying.
This area is famous for the cute little desert washes, that will wash a car or building away if it rains hard enough.
Across the street from me, is a lot, someone bought it, took the old mobile off [LOL, not nearly as old as mine] and brought in big equipment, made the entire 2+ acres into a level sandbox, which blows in my windows.
And are now setting up for the foundation of a home.
There is a for sale sign on the south half of the lot, we have one acre minimum lot size for a residence, and if it is sold before we get a good rain, someone will think they bought a nice lot, but never look at the big wash across the street or a flood map...........and about 2/3 of the lot should not be built on.
