Open Your Heart, Open
Your Home
Every day people
come forward to provide for children in
need. These people
are often unspoken
heroes. Their reward
comes from knowing
they’ve offered compassion, support and
kindness to children
in their home. These
people are foster parents. Being a foster
parent means providing a substitute family
environment for children who, for various
reasons, are unable to
remain in their homes.
The purpose of foster
family care is to provide children with
experiences which are
essential to their constructive growth and
development when
their own parents are
unable to provide
this. Can you open
your heart and home
to a child in need?
What does it take to
become a foster parent? Candidates must
be over 21 years, have
a stable home envi-
ronment, room for a
child, have a flexible
schedule and be financially self-sufficient. They can be single
or married, working
or stay at home parents. No parenting
experience is required.
Support, reimbursement and training are
provided. The next
pre-service session is
starting soon, can we
reserve you a spot?
As a foster parent
you can be a mentor
to a teenager, help a
younger child develop healthy positive

person learn to trust
again. The home that
cares for a foster child
while they cannot be
in their own home
can make all the difference in the world
for that child. For

Why It’s Smart To
Connect With Your
Appliances
( N A P S I ) — W h i l e
you’re away from
home or busy around
the house, your home
appliances, if you’re
living in a smart home,
remain hard at work.
It may seem like a
concept for the future
to many, but the connected home is here,
allowing you to control your major electrical appliances and
services so you can
monitor them from
just about anywhere.
What A Connected
Home Can Do
“Smart”
systems
and appliances can go
about their business,
doing things for you
without you having to
be there.
• A smart refrigerator could catalog its
own contents, suggest
menus, recommend
healthy alter- natives
and order food to be
delivered.
• You can set up
your
thermostat
to turn the heat or
air-conditioning
on
just before you come
home.
• Your connected
home can monitor
your pets and children
while you’re not in the
room and “see” who
comes to the door.
• You may be able
to check messages,
open windows, operate lights and curtains,
and monitor a renewable energy system
through your smartphone, from work, on
vacation or just sitting on your couch at
home.
• A washer and dryer from Whirlpool can
integrate with the Nest
Learning Thermostat
to keep clothes fresh
if a cycle ends when

The word “sinister” is derived from the Greek word for
“left-handed”. The Romans thought good omens came
from the left-hand saide; to the Greeks, the left was the
source of bad omens.

A Little
Knowledge Can
Make A
Big
Difference
(NAPSA)-When
it
comes to pinpointing
potentially serious issues with your vehicle,
your nose may know
more than you realize.
For example, the smell
of burnt toast might
be a sign of an electrical short. The smell of
rotten eggs may signal
trouble with the emissions system, which
includes the catalytic
converter.

things you may not
know about your vehicle:
• Reddish stains on
the driveway can be a
sign of a transmission
oil leak.
• If your technician
asks if your vehicle’s
brakes are “grabbing,”
he wants to know if
the brakes engage
suddenly when you
apply steady pressure
to the brake pedal.
• You should pull
over immediately if
your temperature light
reads in the hot zone.
That probably means

is too hot to cool your
engine.
• Many brake pads
have wear indicators.
If your vehicle has
them, they will emit
loud squeals when
they detect wear.
• It’s a good idea to
write down your vehicle’s symptoms before
visiting a repair shop,
including noises-and
whether these occur
when the engine is hot
or cold.
• Air bags work
with your safety belts,
not as a replacement
for them.
• Children under
13 should ride properly secured in the rear
seat.
• Always keep at
least a half tank of
gas in your vehicle to
avoid potential damage to your fuel filter
or fuel line.
• Check your tire
pressure
frequently
for safety and fuel
economy. Hot and
cold outside temperatures affect the pressure in your tires.
• Avoid oil and fuel
additives unless recommended by your
ser-vice consultant.
• Don’t use dish detergent to wash your
car; it can hurt clearcoat finishes.
