Last minute shopping? I have a great idea! Get a flashlight or some batteries for the flashlight they already have. not only do they make good gifts because everybody needs to have light in the darkness. They are also a key component to a disaster preparedness kit. Your flashlight and batteries are a must have. Be sure you are always ready. Keep your family safe. Getting a flashlight as a stocking stuffer is a great way to be sure there are plenty in your house or car.

Disaster Preparedness

How can I protect myself in an earthquake?

Ground vibrations during an earthquake are seldom the direct cause of death or injury. Most earthquake-related injuries and deaths result from collapsing walls, flying glass, and falling objects caused by the ground shaking. It is extremely important for a person to move as little as possible to reach the place of safety he or she has identified, because most injuries occur when people try to move more than a few feet during the shaking.

Much of the damage caused by earthquakes is predictable and preventable. We must all work together in our communities to apply our knowledge to enact and enforce up-to-date building codes, retrofit older unsafe buildings, and avoid building in hazardous areas, such as those prone to landslides. We must also look for and eliminate hazards at home, where our children spend their days, and where we work. And we must learn and practice what to do if an earthquake occurs.

When is the last time you checked your wall plugs you should be sure that you're not putting too much load on your circuit. While we all have knowledge that too many plugs in one outlet is dangerous, not all of us realize that cell phones draw the same power as other items. The power is then converted are transformed into a lower voltage to charge the battery in the phone.
