Brad Pitt's 'Make It Right' Foundation, Charity of the Day
Filed under: Charity, Charity of the Day
Brad Pitt's Make It Right foundation is geared towards helping hurricane Katrina victims rebuild in New Orleans. Brad is putting a call out to all American families to be generous and giving this Christmas season by donating to the cause and helping New Orleans families as they fight "the fight of the their lives." The biggest focus of the efforts is rebuilding the homes that were lost, and doing it in a speedy and environmentally conscious way.
Donating to the cause is a great gift, either as a straight monetary amount given in a loved one's name or through giving them a t-shirt or hat to promote and support the cause.

$5k Hurricane Phone
After last year's brutal hurricane season - and predictions that this year will be just as bad - it seems like a good time to invest in some disaster supplies, just to be on the safe side. Engadget Mobile posted about a $5,000 Personal Hurricane Kit made by Assemble Communications. It won't hold a lot of food or water, but the waterproof suitcase has a battery-powered satellite antenna to let you make calls to loved ones and emergency personnel. Even to FEMA, if you're so inclined. The kit comes with 400 minutes of air-talk time and 150 mb of internet access, as you can hook it up to a laptop with ease, though checking your e-mail or surf the net may not be the best thing to do in an emergency situation.
Nambé twist cocktail shaker
This stunning
shaker is inspired by the curves of a helix. It is made of a special thermal retentive metal called Nambé which
holds the cold 3 times longer than other metals. Just stow it in the freezer for about 30 minutes, add your favorite
mixers, and out comes chilled drinks without the need for ice. The Nambé metal will never tarnish, crack,
chip or peel. The shaker goes for about $145.
