In California, which ranks among the most expensive states in terms of energy prices, SPF insulation can help homeowners save about $900 annually on their heating and cooling costs. Additionally, these energy savings mean homes insulated with SPF can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide being released into the state’s air by 800,000 metric tons, the equivalent of removing 2,700 cars from the roads there each year. And these savings aren’t limited to California. In Minneapolis, with its cold and long winters, a home with SPF insulation can save the equivalent of 2,400 barrels of oil over a 60-year period. A home in Houston, with its hot and long summers, can save the equivalent of 500 barrels of oil during that same period. And all these savings translate to less greenhouse gases being pumped into the environment. SPF produces these energy-efficiency benefits through its high R-value, which is the measure of the insulation’s ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. SPF can also act as an air barrier and sealant for cracks and gaps. This is important, as air leaks in a home can waste up to 40 percent of the energy used to heat and cool it.

It is impossible to know your muzzle is pointed in a safe direction all the time. A safe direction is defined as “any direction where the bullet or shot will not harm a person if the firearm is discharged.” What you can do is to adopt certain styles of carries and specific practices while hunting with or handling firearms to help maximize on safety. We all know that it is never acceptable to point a firearm at another person or at anything you do not wish to destroy. What we don’t consciously realize is that sometimes when we are “getting ready” to use or put away our firearms we inadvertently point the muzzle in an unsafe direction. Let’s not forget rule number one either: Treat every firearm as if it is loaded ... all the time. Examples of safe directions would include straight up in a two-hand ready carry position or downrange when on the firing line at a shooting range. When not actively hunting or shooting you can also increase the safety factor by having the action open. This was a common practice in the days when shotgun hunters mostly hunted with break open action shotguns. When confronted in the field by another person hunters simply opened the actions on their shotguns. This was considered proper etiquette. Did you know that many unwanted discharges occur when the firearm is being loaded or unloaded? Point- ing the muzzle of your firearm in a safe direction when doing either function is critical and necessary to avoid an incident. Remember that if a firearm discharges the bullets or pellets can ricochet. Placing hunters in a circle all facing outward is one way to load and unload firearms in a safe direction. If you are hunting with only one other person you can stand back-to-back. Self inflicted firearms injuries comprise about 33% of all hunting incidents annually. The muzzles of those firearms were not pointed in a safe direction when the incidents occurred. Controlling the muzzle of your firearm is your responsibility. You should never be insulted if a person requests you to point your muzzle elsewhere or in a safe direction. Rather you should be thankful because they might have saved you from a tragedy and Continued on Page 15 Meyer’s Gun Shop Large Selection of New & Used Gun Inventory • Ammo • Personalized Service Proud Supporter of Youth Shooting Sports Mon., Wed. & Fri. 6 p.m.-9 p.m., Sat. 10-5 Thurs. & Sun.

(Part 1)No need to open a book, we can open a quilt to find out what stories these beautiful blankets have to share. Quilts are a narrative part of many cultures. Historically, traditional quilts were made by hand. In many cases, groups of friends and neighbors would gather to work on one quilt together. This greatly reduced the amount of time it would have taken one person to make a quilt. These social gatherings were known as “quilting bees." The materials for traditional quilts came from many sources. Often the cloth used to make the blankets came from familiar items, such as clothing.

One very dear type of quilt is the friendship quilt. Friendship quilts are made by friends as a gift of remembrance. They can be given to a friend or relative to commemorate a wedding or a new baby. Sometimes they are given to a friend who is moving away. Typically, a friendship quilt is made up of different squares. Each of these friendship blocks is signed by one of the friends and quilters. Sometimes the blocks may include the date or a personal mes- sage, too. In this way, friendship quilts are a bit like modern-day scrapbooks...(to be continued next week).

Today, it is selling for approximately 90 cents less than gasoline wholesale. At the national level, that not only means ethanol is bringing down the cost of gas per gallon, it is stretching are writing or calling their members of Congress to voice their support of the Renewable Fuels Standard. How to Learn More To learn about the many benefits of ethanol and the Renewable Fuels Standard, visit www.EthanolRFA.org. PA015918 ( N A P S I ) — H o w much you pay at the pump, how much we can avoid pollution and combat climate change, and how effectively we can stand up to other countries can all depend on whether the government continues a policy that’s been called an unmitigated success. The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) has reduced the United States dependence on imported petroleum, lowered gasoline prices, created jobs and economic opportunity across America, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. A Stronger, More Energy Independent Nation A recent surge in ethanol production has reduced gasoline imports from 600,000 barrels per day a decade ago to near zero today. Looked at another way, the ethanol produced in 2013 displaced an amount of gasoline refined from 462 million barrels of ditional Midwestern Corn Belt. The ethanol industry currently supports: • 86,504 direct jobs • 300,277 indirect and induced jobs • $44 billion contribution to GDP • $30.7 billion in household income. Cleaner Air The use of ethanol in gasoline in 2013 reduced CO2-equivalent greenhouse gas emissions from transportation by 37.9 million metric tons— equivalent to removing 7.9 million cars from the road for an entire year. What Others Are Doing Many Americans www.crawlspacerepair.org Ethanol Is Good For America our national fuel supply. Philip K. Verleger, a renowned energy economist, found ethanol saved consumers $0.50 to $1.50 per gallon in 2012-2013.
