t The Music Den we are


now celebrating our 30th
year of business. Focusing
on education and customer service
are the main contributors to our
success. While the Internet may
seem to make purchasing musical
instruments easy, we take time to
educate our customers on quality
and as well as price, and match
most internet pricing. To hold an
instrument in your hands, try it, to
feel and hear it is invaluable. Our
experienced sales staff will guide
you to the proper size, style, and
price of an instrument so your
musical experience will last and be
a positive one.
The Music Dens School of
Music and Performing Arts offers
private music instruction by
trained and accomplished teachers.
Lessons on theory, arranging, com-
position and improvisation are
available for students of any level
to expand their music education
and experience. Furthermore, they
can bring in their iPod, or purchase
sheet music we have available (in
our extensive music department)
to learn their favorite song and
help motivate their musical
appetite. Our lesson department
in Butler consists of the entire sec-
ond floor where the atmosphere is
conducive to learning, houses indi-
vidual lesson studios and has a
waiting section.
We understand what a valu-
able community resource a music
facility can provide. Our goal is to
support the music education pro-
grams offered in school and work
together to raise the level of aware-
ness for the Arts. In our Band
Instrument Rental Department,
we offer the best quality band
instruments such as Selmer,
Yamaha, Bach and Buffet. Go
online to www.themusicden.com
to see how easy and inexpensive it
is to rent a top quality band instru-
ment and have it delivered direct-
ly to your childs school. We serv-
ice most schools in Northern New
Jersey. Music is a lifetime experi-
ence. Dont miss out on it!
For our first time students,

ome improvement
projects can add
value to a home and
do-it-yourselfers know the
sweat-equity that goes into
such projects can give home-
owners a greater sense of pride
in their homes. But no two
home improvement projects
are the same, and homeown-
ers should know that certain
projects are best tackled dur-
ing certain times of the year.
Fall is a great season to
work on your house, as the
weather is often at its most
agreeable once the summer
heat has gone and before win-
ter weather arrives. The fol-
lowing are a handful of fall-
friendly home improvement
projects for homeowners look-
ing to improve their homes.
Roof repair
Whether youre repairing
or replacing the roof, fall is a
great time of year to dust off
the ladder and get some work
done on your roof for a variety
of reasons. First and foremost,
fall is ideal for roof work
because you wont have to be
up on the roof with the sum-
mer heat bearing down on
you. This can make the proj-
ect move along more quickly,
which is especially beneficial
if you are paying laborers to
work on the roof. The fewer
hours workers are fixing your
roof, the less you will be pay-
ing in labor costs.
In addition, fixing up the
roof in the fall ensures those
winter storms, be it rain or
snow, wont find their way
into your home via leaks. A
leaky roof in winter is hard to
fix, as the roof surface could
be treacherous in the winter
and winter winds can make it
dangerous to be up on the roof
at all. Addressing leaks in the
fall can prevent damage to
your homes interior, which
can mount up if a leaky roof is
not addressed until the follow-
ing spring.
Window work
When the weather out-
side gets frightful, poorly insu-
lated windows can allow cold
air into the home. That often
has a trickle-down effect on
finances, forcing you to turn
up the thermostat in an
attempt to offset the cold air
pouring into the home.
Whether you need your win-
dows replaced or simply need
to patch up any leaks, a proac-
tive approach to leaky or older
windows in the fall can save
you from unnecessarily high
heating bills come the winter.

W
ith our President
playing yet anoth-
er vacation round
of golf while our Mexican bor-
der resembles Swiss cheese;
our State Department contin-
ues debating about what to do
in the Middle East concerning
American interests and jour-
nalist hostages, further para-
lyzed over how to contain
ISIS. On the domestic front
some pundits are predicting
another stock market and
housing crash! In addition,
everyone understands that
interest rates must increase in
the near-term putting pressure
on corporate, municipal and
federal bond valuations and
yield. The government con-
tinues to profess that inflation
is fewer than 2% yet; when I
look at our personal grocery
receipts I calculate its more
like 8%.
Incomes of Americans
have remained stagnant over
the last few years, making the
grocery bill impact even worse
yet. Flip on the TV and the
headlines are either domestic
police brutality with racial
profiling or about ISIS,
Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Gaza
and their joint hatred for
Israel, America, Jews and
Christians alike! Our govern-
ment hasnt learned yet that it
cannot negotiate or bargain
with people who launch 4,000
rockets into civilian popula-
tions or for no discernable rea-
son, behead an innocent man,
claiming retaliation for a sup-
posed event that James Foley,
a photo journalist, had no part
in or anything to do with.
Perhaps world events
were too much for the late
great Robin Williams to deal
with, adding to his depression
and reasons to end his own
life. Isnt it interesting how
the media delved into Mr.
Williams death with non-stop
coverage for over 72 hours. I
believe this to be a distraction
tactic away from the foibles of
our President, who clearly has
demonstrated a unique clear
concise foreign and domestic
policy of golf and vacations
when dealing with these
major areas of concern. The
man is obviously not a student
of history as evidenced by his
rapid withdrawal from Iraq,
resulting in the formation and
proliferation of ISIS (the
Islamic State of Iraq and
Syria) and now our Vietnam-
like reentry into the same
region, a few advisors at a time
with a scaled-back air defense
initiative under the guise of
humanitarian aid for the
innocent people being slaugh-
tered, raped and tortured, a
genocide taking place right
before our very eyes. If you are
going to fight a war to save
innocent lives, you must be
prepared to commit an ample
percentage of your troops and
resources to do so, otherwise
its a losing and more costly
battle for us and the people we
are trying to save.
By the Presidents own
ambitions of appeasing his
constituents, he felt it best to
vacate the area leaving the
region without any definitive
military, government or direc-
tion. Whereas the leader of
Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu,
is and has been informing the
US public that ISIS, Islamic
Jihad, Hamas and the Muslim
brotherhood are coming to a
theater near you. Obamas
actions led to the proliferation
of ISIS, a group more power-
ful, financed and organized
than Al-Qaeda could ever
hope to be. When the US
acts as the worlds police force
and enters a region, it must
plan a properly timed exit or
make the decision to put a
long-term military base there
after the conflict ends to keep
the peace and back the gov-
ernment left after the job is
done.
All of these national and
domestic news stories involv-
ing mass illegal border cross-
ings, violence, looting, riots
and beheadings have been a
tremendous distraction for the
American public to attend to
and focus on their goals of
increasing their lifestyles and
standard of living, to secure
their financial futures, to pro-
vide for their childrens educa-
tion, marriage and first home
purchase, to focus on a better
financial life now and in the
future.
TV and Movie actor
William Devane explains on
national television while
parked on his motorcycle, why
and where he is buying gold as
a hedge against a domestic
financial meltdown. Fresh in
our minds are the meltdowns
of 2008 and the period
between 2000 and 2002. We
may look no further than
1994 and 1990 and just three
years before that in 1987 was
the BIG ONE where the
DJIA dropped 23% in a single
day. Might we be nearing
another year like 2008?
Its not difficult to see
how one can be easily dis-
tracted from their financial
road by either headline news,
political news, celebrity news,
lest we forget our own person-
al and family issues along the
way. We cannot afford to lose
our financial goals and direc-
tions, the basic tenants of why
we are going to, or went to
work every day of our lives.
We must not be distracted
from our goal of becoming
financially independent. In
retirement would you rather
be dependent on your past
employer, the federal govern-
ment or your children, per-
haps winning the lottery? Or
must you be self: Funded,
Motivated, Completing, and
Sufficient? In this authors
opinion, I believe the answer
is more than obvious, cap-
tured by the phrase, If it is to
be, its up to me!

Addressing leaky windows also
makes a home more comfort-
able for its inhabitants.
Fall is the ideal time to
address a homes windows
because the temperature out-
side tends to be pleasant. This
means you likely wont have to
make much of an effort to off-
set the elements, and open
windows in the fall wont
make your homes interior very
hot or cold like they might if
you were to tackle the project
during the summer or winter.
Fixing the floors
Wood flooring is a hot
commodity for many home-
owners. But not all flooring
can be added to a home at any
time of year. Thats because
certain types of flooring
employ adhesives that need
temperatures inside the home
to be within a certain range,
and that range is often within
70o to 80o F, which makes fall
a great time to install such
floors. Colder temperatures
can make it difficult for the
flooring to dry and bond,
which will prove problematic
down the road. Whats more,
many people entertain friends
and family come late fall and
into the holiday season, and it
can be difficult to do so if you
are busy installing new floor-
ing.
Painting projects
Painting is another home
improvement project that
seems tailor-made for fall. A
fresh coat of paint or a new
color scheme around the
house can give a home an
entirely new look and feel.
But paint can be pungent and
the aromas may last if its
applied at a time of year when
it cant dry while the windows
are wide open. Paint fumes
inside a home can make the
home uninhabitable, but
painting at a time of year like
the fall, when you can keep
the windows open during and
after the project, can help air
the home out.
But interior painting isnt
the only painting project
homeowners can tackle in the
fall. Many exterior paints are
temperature-sensitive and
need the temperature outside
to be above 40o F. Paint that
freezes wont dry properly, and
homeowners might be left
with a costly and unsightly
mistake on their hands. Fall
temperatures tend to be
amenable to both interior and
exterior painting projects, just
be sure to check the weather
forecast before making your
first brush stroke.
I
am a very fortunate den-
tist. Everyday I enhance
peoples smiles, change
peoples smiles, and am
rewarded with smiles by
thankful, satisfied patients. It
makes me feel good! We all
know the effect we feel when
a baby, a loved one, or even a
stranger, greets us this way.
Did you know that there are at
least ten health advantages to
smiling?
1. Smiling makes us attractive.
We are drawn to people and
draw them in with a smile.
2. It changes our mood. Try it
when youre sad.
3. Smiling is contagious. It
affects others and makes them
happier.
4. Smiling relieves stress. It
prevents us from looking tired,
worn down, and over-
whelmed.
5. It boosts our immune sys-
tem. It can prevent colds and
the flu.
6. Smiling lowers your blood
pressure. Scientific tests have
proven this.
7. Smiling releases endor-
phans, natural painkillers, and
serotonin. These are feel-good
and natural healing drugs in
our body.
8. It lifts your face and makes
you look younger. It works
muscles for a natural face lift.
9. Smiling makes you seem
successful and confident.
10. Smiling makes you more
positive. Try this test: Smile.
Now try to think of something
negative without losing your
smile. Its hard!
Stay healthy, get healthy,
enhance, and show that smile!

tudents learn lessons
each day. While many
of these lessons pertain
to their coursework, kids pick
up much more than book
smarts from school, where
kids first learn to cultivate
friendships and build lasting
relationships.
In addition to a new cur-
riculum, new teachers and
new schedules, kids also
might make new friends once
a school year begins. While
some familiar faces carry
through from grade to grade,
chances are youngsters will
meet new students who will
soon become good friends.
While many kids find it easy
to make new friends, others
might need some assistance
so they can make the most of
opportunities to socialize and
form friendships that might
last a lifetime.
Offer opportunities for
socialization. Children should
be given the opportunity to
explore friendships outside of
the classroom where peer pres-
sure might not be so prevalent.
Establish a carpool or invite a
classmate over for a play date.
Unstructured time to play or
get to know each other is a
great way to establish friend-
ships. Invite new children
over each time to see which
friendships are the strongest,
but make sure you are not
pushing a friendship on your
child.
Discover common inter-
ests. One of the quickest ways
to build friendships is
through common interests,
says Kirk Martin, a behav-
ioral therapist and author.
Encourage your child to join
a club or sports group where
he or she can meet other kids
with similar interests.
Sometimes finding reasons to
talk other children is the
most difficult step to making
new friends. Sharing a com-
mon interest removes this
barrier.
Teach proper manners.
Children who are polite,
well-mannered and know
how to follow direction are
better equipped to attract

irca 1991. When I was
a kid, I was a huge
baseball fan- and still
am, by the way. Growing up
my favorite player was a guy
named Graig Nettles, third
baseman for the Yankees in the
70s and early 80s. This guy pro-
vided me with a lot of thrills
growing up and he was to me,
The Man.
In the early 90s I was
working on my first book,
Safe at Home, which afford-
ed me the privilege of being on
the field and in the locker
room of Major League Baseball
teams in order to interview
players. Graig was a coach for
the Yankees at the time.
As I was standing on the
field talking to some of the
guys, Graig walked by. My
heart jumped, but I couldnt
bring myself to engage in a
conversation. I couldnt even
muster up the courage to say
hello. Im most definitely not
much of a shy guy, and I cer-
tainly was not intimidated by
him. So why the hesitation?
The reason I chose not to
talk to Graig Nettles was
because I did not want my
childhood icon to turn out to
be a sham. Graig Nettles was so
built up in my mind upon the
shallow image of the Yankees
third baseman, but what if the
real Graig Nettles turned out
to be a jerk? Im sure Mr.
Nettles is a great guy, but I
couldnt bring myself to take
the chance.
In retrospect, it was pretty
lame of me not to go up and
talk to the guy who was at one
time my hero. Makes me
think, how much do we really
know about the people we look
up to? Most of the time we fail
to recognize that they are
human, just like us, and that
humans sometimes fail. We put
so much stock in others that
when they do crash they take
us down with them! Who do
you look up to and why?
Think about it
Some of my favorite
images are of people who love
their dogs so much that they
actually look like them! Its the
same thing for humans. When
we look up to someone, or
idolize them, we try to emulate
them. There is a great quote
that says, Be yourself, after all
everyone else is taken. Wise
words. Think about who it is
you put up on a pedestal and
then write down what it is
about them that is so attractive
to you. Does the list reveal
anything to you?

S
ome people prefer cats,
while others loyalty lies
with dogs. Dogs and cats
have different personalities,
which is what draws people to
them for one reason or another.
Though different, cats and dogs
alike need to visit the veteri-
narian for routine checkups.
Still, it seems dogs head to the
vet more frequently than cats.
Organizations like the
American Association of
Feline Practitioners and
others have uncovered the
disparity in care among
dogs and cats. Cats are less
likely to receive veterinary
healthcare than dogs, as
research shows that cats
make up about one-quarter
of patients at small animal
veterinary clinics.
Cats have long been sec-
ond to dogs as the most popular
pet. But cats may be edging out
dogs as the preferred pet, par-
ticularly because they seem to
need less attention and mainte-
nance. But these same qualities
that make them attractive pets
could be putting their health at
risk. Cats that tend to fend for
themselves act aloof and may
not give their owners any indi-
cation that they are sick. As a
result, pet owners can become
complacent about cat care,
simply because they dont
spend as much time with cats as
they may with a dog.
Dr. Katy Allen, a veteri-
narian and owner of
Canterbury Tails Veterinary
Services, has said dogs are an
in-your-face kind of pet.
People tend to interact more
with their dogs by taking
them for walks and playing
with them. So its more
noticeable when something is
not right with a dog. Cats,
however, are more stoic.
When they dont feel well,
cats will run away and hide.
Changing vaccine sched-
ules for many animals may also
affect how often cats visit the
vet. Immunizations have
changed so that some shots can
be offered every two or three
years instead of annually.
Therefore, pet owners may not
see the need to visit the vet
unless the animal is due for a
shot. This can put a cat at risk
because it is usually during rou-
tine exams when vets uncover
something that the pet owner
may not have noticed on his or
her own.
The American Animal
Hospital Association urges cat
owners to remember that every
year that passes for a cat is
equivalent to several years for a
person, making it imperative
for cats to receive wellness
examinations, including labo-
ratory testing, once a year.
Healthy senior cats should be
examined once every six
months, as illnesses and
changes in an older cats health
can progress quickly.
What can you expect at a
cats wellness exam? A veteri-
narian will go over a number of
things at an annual wellness
visit. Here is a list of some
things to expect: discussion of
the animals medical history,
testing of the cats stool, exam-
ination of the cats nose and
nasal passages for signs of infec-
tion, examination of the gums,
teeth and tongue, examination
of the ears to check for mites or
any discharge, examination of
the eyes, examination of the
body for parasites or skin dis-
ease, examination to determine
if there are any abnormal
growths or tenderness, exami-
nation of heart and lung
sounds, and a collection of
blood to test for heartworms,
feline leukemia and feline
immunodeficiency virus.
If any abnormalities are
suspected, more intensive test-
ing may be prescribed.
Cats are prized for their
ability to be self-sufficient and
not need the same level of
attention as most dogs.
However, these traits should
not preclude them from receiv-
ing routine medical wellness
exams.

any home improve-
ment projects in-
volve hanging dec-
orative items, such as photo
frames or shelving. Home-
owners frequently wrestle
with nails, screws and hanging
hardware, perhaps creating
more holes in their walls than
is necessary to get items level
and in the right spots. Instead
of playing a guessing game of
figuring out where the hang-
ing holes or hooks are located
on the back of items, use your
office equipment to make life
easier. Make a copy of the
back of the item you're trying
to hang with a printer/scanner
or a copy machine, making
sure to copy the item to full
scale. Print the copy at full
size and use it to drill the
hanging holes. If you don't
have access to a copy machine
or scanner, use a piece of tape
to measure the distance
between the hanging holes on
the back of the frame. Stick
the tape to the wall and then
put your nails or screws at the
ends of the tape.
friends. Children who misbe-
have may be shunned by
other kids and their parents
who do not want the hassle
of an unruly youngster com-
ing over to play. Respectful
children who are honest,
trustworthy and capable of
sustaining eye contact and
making small talk may find it
easy to make friends.
Take the friendship
lead. As parents, you can
improve your childs chances
of making friends by getting
friendly with their class-
mates parents. You do not
have to become bosom bud-
dies with everyone, but mak-
ing connections with fellow
parents can reinforce the
value of friendship to your
children. Socializing as fami-
lies also presents other
opportunities to get together
and solidify relationships.
Boost confidence levels.
As a parent you can talk to
your children about their
strengths and positive attrib-
utes. Emphasizing kids best
traits will increase their self-
esteem, and that sense of
self-worth can make it easier
for them to make friends. A
child who is shy and insecure
may retreat when meeting
new people, but a child who
can proudly stand behind his
or her accomplishments may
attract friends easily.
School is about more
than just hitting the books.
Its also a prime opportunity
for kids to develop their per-
sonal skills and make new
friends.

Finding
the Right
Restaurant
for Your
Dinner
Party
O
ver the last couple of years, dining out has become an even bigger luxury than it
once was. Thanks to the struggling economy, many people have decided to cut
back on spending, and dining out has become casualty of such events.
While the economy is gradually rebounding, dining out is still largely reserved for
special occasions among those whose memory of the recession is still fresh. However,
dining out does remain a strong choice when hosting a special occasion such as a birthday
party or anniversary celebration. When choosing a restaurant to have such a gathering,
consider the following tips to ensure that rare restaurant night out goes off without a hitch.
NEW
whats
in dining?
Look for versatility in a menu. When
dining out, the emphasis is obviously on the
food. Couples might enjoy certain
restaurants they have previously patronized,
but that does not necessarily make the
restaurant ideal for a party. When shopping
for a restaurant, look for one that boasts a
versatile menu that can cater to a vast array
of palates. Especially for larger parties, the
versatility of the menu is very important.
Restaurants that boast a large entree
selection that includes meat, poultry,
seafood, and even vegetarian dishes ensures
each guest has options.
Examine the elbow room. Because dining
out has become such a luxury, comfort
should be another key consideration. Look
for a restaurant that provides ample elbow
room so everyone can relax and wont feel
crowded.
Be sure there are places to park. Chances
are, most guests will be driving to the party.
While it seems like an afterthought, the
restaurant should provide ample, and ideally
free, parking. Avoid restaurants that charge
for valet service or inquire if such service
can be included on the tab ahead of time.
Reserve well in advance. If its a truly
special occasion, be sure to begin the process
of finding a restaurant as early as possible
and make a reservation the moment a
decision is made. Reservations can always
be cancelled should things not work out.

W
orkdays have a
way of flying by,
and many men
and women find themselves
wondering where the time
went at the end of a typical
day. A workday filled with
meetings and the obligations
of a career is only half the
story for working parents, who
upon leaving the office must
manage the obligations of
their families.
With such hectic sched-
ules, its no wonder so many
working parents find them-
selves wishing there was more
time in the day. While there
may be no way to make a day
25 hours long, the following
time-saving measures can
increase the time you have to
unwind and relax at the end of
the night.
Save those leftovers. At
the end of a good meal, left-
over food will either find its
way to the garbage can or be
wrapped up and stored in the
refrigerator. Men and women
looking to save time should
embrace the latter approach
to leftovers, turning them into
an extra meal for later in the
week. Saving and reheating
leftovers from just one meal
per week saves the time it
takes to prepare and cook a
fresh meal while providing a
welcome weekly respite for
the family cook from the
chore of making dinner.
Make better use of your
lunch break. Men and women
who arent accustomed to
working lunches can use their
daily lunch hour to run
errands. While using a lunch
hour to pick up some dry
cleaning or visit the grocery
store to get something for that
nights dinner can save time,
even those errands that dont
require leaving the office can

Nobody Covers You Better
Established 1948 A Professional Roofing Company
S
tretching every dollar is
a reality for many fami-
lies. A higher cost-of-
living coupled with financial
uncertainty has inspired many
families to scale back their
spending, a process thats
much easier when families cre-
ate a household budget.
Creating a household
budget is often more compli-
cated for families than individ-
uals. Thats because families
not only tend to have more
monthly expenses, but also
because families tend to pay
more mind to their financial
futures than men and women
living on their own. The fol-
lowing are a few tips for men
and women hoping to create a
household budget for their
families.
Get a grip on your
finances. Before setting a fam-
ily budget, heads of the house-
hold should first get a firm
grasp of their finances.
Determine household in-
come, fixed monthly expenses
(i.e., mortgage, car payments,
etc.), luxury expenses (i.e.,
cable television service, dining
out, etc.), and outstanding
consumer debt. Once you get a
clear picture of whats coming
in and whats going out, you
can determine whether or not
you are making sound deci-
sions.
Set a goal. Once finances
have been examined, you can
then set a goal. Goals will
change as your financial situa-
tion changes, but let your
existing financial situation
influence the goal you initially
set. For example, if an exami-
nation of your financial situa-
tion revealed a considerable
amount of consumer debt,
then a goal of eradicating that
debt is a great place to start,
and part of setting the goal is
developing a course of action
to make it a reality. When try-
ing to free up money to pay
down consumer debt, examine
the expenses you listed as lux-
uries and determine which
ones you can cut so you can
pay down your familys debts.
Dining out less and cutting
back on entertainment ex-
penses are great ways to free up
money to pay down debt. If an
examination of your finances
indicates little or no consumer
debt but lots of money being
spent frivolously, allocate
funds for daily expenditures
like a morning cup of coffee or
lunch into your budget and do
your best to avoid exceeding
that amount.
Establish a weekly budg-
et. Many families find it easier
to manage their money and
stay within their budgets if
they live on weekly, as
opposed to monthly, budgets.
This can be tricky, as many of
your more significant expens-
es, including mortgage and car
payments, are likely collected
on a monthly basis. But estab-
lishing a weekly budget for
your family allows you to mon-
itor your monthly expenses
more closely, reducing the
likelihood that youll get to
the end of the month and real-
ize you exceeded your budget.
Include in your weekly budget
expenses that are not fixed,
like grocery bills and gas.
Staying within budget for such
expenses every week can lead
to substantial savings by the
end of each month, and its far
easier to save that money
when youre monitoring those
expenses every seven days
instead of every 30 days.
Consider long-term goals.
Long-term goals should be
considered when establishing
a family budget. Even if money
is tight, you likely can still find
room in your budget to save
for your future. The goal of
establishing a family budget is
to ensure money is being well

be tended to during your
lunch hour. Use your lunch
hour to pay some bills and bal-
ance your checkbook or email
your childs teacher about an
upcoming assignment. Tackl-
ing such errands during the
daytime can free up more time
to spend with your family at
night.
DVR your favorite tele-
vision programs. Many house-
holds have embraced the
DVR, which, along with
streaming, has revolutionized
the way we watch television.
Rather than sitting down on
the couch to watch your
favorite shows when they ini-
tially air, use your DVR to
record them and watch them
when you get the chance.
This can make your nights less
hectic as you wont be hurry-
ing to complete chores before
your favorite show airs. And
recording your favorite shows
also allows you to fast forward
through the commercials, sav-
ing you roughly 15 minutes for
every hour of television you
watch.
Exercise in the morning.
Devotees of the morning
workout often note how work-
ing out in the morning does
wonders for their energy levels
throughout the day. But work-
ing out in the morning also
frees up time to tackle house-
hold chores or work projects
in the evening. Of course,
that extra time in the evening
also can be used to unwind
and relax from a long day at
the office.
Many men and women
find themselves pressed for
time as the week progresses.
But there are several ways to
make more efficient use of
your time and enjoy more free
time as a result.

According to the U.S.
Environmental Protection
Agency, inadequate ventila-
tion in a home can increase
indoor air pollution levels.
Those pollutant levels rise in
a poorly ventilated home
because not enough outdoor
air is making its way into a
home to dilute emissions from
indoor sources of pollution. In
addition, in a poorly ventilat-
ed home, indoor air pollutants
are not being carried out of
the home, leaving the pollu-
tants to linger and potentially
putting the health of the
home's residents at risk.
Though it might seem coun-
terintuitive to allow outdoor
air into a home during winter,
when such air tends to be at
its coldest, such outdoor air
can protect a home's inhabi-
tants from the immediate
effects of indoor air pollution,
which include irritation of the
eyes, nose and throat, as well
as headaches, dizziness and
fatigue. Long-term effects of
prolonged exposure to indoor
air pollution can include res-
piratory disease, heart disease
and cancer. But homeowners
who want toincrease outdoor
air infiltration in their homes
do not have to open the win-
dows even when temperatures
dip. A simple inspection of
mechanical ventilation sys-
tems, such as bathroom and
kitchen fans and air handling
systems that employ fans and
ducts to remove indoor air
and distribute filtered and
conditioned outdoor air
throughout a home, may be all
that's necessary to ensure
indoor air stays healthy during
the winter. If such systems are
in need of repair, homeowners
should ensure those repairs are
made prior to the arrival of
winter.
spent, and contributing to your
familys financial future is
money well spent. Allocate
funds for retirement account
contributions and future edu-
cational expenses as well. Even
small contributions can add up
to a significant amount of
money over time.
