place, the next step to consider is an important one: safety. While obvious concepts like electrical safety are typically followed without hesitation, some crucial details don’t receive the same caution, such as safe handling of batteries. Many cordless power tools use lithium-ion batteries for improved efficiency, energy storage capacity, durability, versatility and portability, but they need to be handled properly. Prior to operating a battery-powered tool, consider these tips from the experts at the Power Tool Institute, a leading voice on power tool safety issues and standards for the industry. Selection and Use: •Lithium-ion batteries pack more energy than prior technologies,
which means they can do more work, but there’s also greater potential for damage when misused. •Batteries are not interchangeable, so it’s important to only use batteries and chargers from the original power tool manufacturer. •Original manufacturer batteries are engineered to communicate and work with specific tools and chargers. These components, as a system, also go through a rigorous certification and testing process – a requirement that doesn’t typically apply to third-party batteries. •Substandard aftermarket and counterfeit batteries may come with additional hazards that result in fire, property damage or personal injury. •If a battery is damaged, do not use it. •Never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to enter it, including corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial
chemicals and bleach or products containing bleach. Fluid entry can increase the chances of short-circuiting, which comes with risks of overheating, fire or explosion that can lead to personal injury a n d prope r t y damage. Transportation a n d Dis-
posal: •Always transport and store lithium-ion batteries as instructed in the owner’s manual. •Avoid contact with metal objects, such as keys, coins, screws, nails and liquids. •When disposing a lithium-ion battery, take it to a local recycling center or place it in a receptacle designed for batteries. Throwing it away in the trash or municipal recycling can cause a fire hazard. Photo courtesy of Getty Images # 14510 Source: Power Tool Institute

DAVE SAYS WAIT ON THE HONEYMOON?
Dear Dave, My fiancé and I are getting married in three weeks, but he lost his job as an experienced HVAC technician at a hospital a few days ago. Do you think we should still go on a honeymoon, or wait until things are more stable? I’m on Baby Step 3 of your plan, and I make $56,000 a year. I also have $7,000 in an emergency fund. He was making $64,000 a year, and he’s on Baby Step 2 with about $10,000 in car debt remaining. We have $3,000 already set aside for the trip, plus another $2,000 we were planning to put toward fixing up his place. Corina Dear Corina, First, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I hope you two will have long and happy lives together. Usually, I’m not a big fan of spending when someone loses a job. But I think your situation is a little different than most. You’re both serious about dumping debt and getting control of your finances. Plus, you’re working together, and you’ve already got a nice chunk of cash parked in the bank. That tells me you’re both wise enough to know the importance of saving. Your guy can find another job in a couple of weeks, considering his field and experience. Companies everywhere are hiring people right now, and the economy is booming! If he gets out there and really busts it looking for another position leading up to the wedding, I think you two will be fine. He might even be able to work it out to start right after the honeymoon. You two have some financial padding, his job is an easy one to
replace, and his income will be restored soon if he’ll just get out there and make it happen. Go on the honeymoon, and have a wonderful time. God bless you both! —Dave Dental insurance for the kids? Dear Dave, Should I keep buying dental insurance for my kids, or is it just a gimmick?
Brenda, Dear Brenda, Dental insurance is one of those things where it’s easy to see that the payout is greater than the return. We’ve had dental insurance proposed to us at my company several times as an employee benefit, but when you add up what you pay for it you’ll find you rarely spend that much on dentistry.

Journalism 101
. Hemingway’s Rules When Ernest Hemingway was a cadet journalist at the Kansas City Star he was given a style guide that included four basic rules he committed to memory. Apparently they served him well for the rest of his life. They are: • Use short sentences • Use short first paragraphs • Use vigorous English • Be positive, not negative Recently journalism has come under fire. I don’t have a journalism degree; however, I have learned a lot about journalism because of my years spent in radio and television and even to a certain degree time I have spent writing about what I care about has taught me a few things about covering the news. The first sentence or two of the opening paragraph or a standalone Introduction, the lead is the most important part of the story. It needs to grab the reader’s interest and persuade them to read on. If you’ve come this far, it means my lead worked and you wanted to keep reading. Thanks for sticking around. You’ve written the

Even when the truth hits the leftest CNN, they still try to spin the story against Donald Trump. By the way, who owns CNN? It’s part of Time Warner, who is also owned along with Directv by ATT. Could we see a boycott of all of these corporate

Signs your battery needs to be replaced
Ever dealt with a dead car battery in the middle of winter? Not much fun, is it? Drivers are far better off ensuring that their battery is in good shape before the thermometer dips. But how can you tell if your battery needs to be replaced? Here’s what to look out for.
INDICATORS OF AGE Car batteries typically last four to six years. One indication that yours is on its last legs is that the interior
lights and/or headlights have gotten dimmer. Another good clue is that your vehicle doesn’t jump to life when you turn your key in the ignition: instead, your start up is slow, weak or inconsistent. If you’re experiencing these problems and your battery is old, it’s a good idea to get it checked by a licensed technician to see if it needs to be replaced. If your battery is still under four years old, it may just need to be re-
charged. LOW VOLTAGE Recharge your battery when the voltage is lower than 12.4 volts. You can check the voltage using a voltmeter or multimeter. If you have a car battery recharger, you can recharge the battery yourself. Otherwise, get a professional to do it. Provided this resolves the issue, your battery is likely still fine. However, should the problem return, check the voltage again. If the battery won’t hold a charge, it’s time to get it replaced. If the voltage is within

range, it might be an issue with the alternator. PROBLEMS WITH THE ALTERNATOR Note that a defective alternator has similar secondary effects as a weak battery. For this reason, it can sometimes be a good idea to consult a mechanic before replacing your battery. This way you’re sure to get a full and accurate diagnostic.
Four ways to protect your windshield in winter Want to protect your
windshield against the season’s hazards? Then be sure to adhere to these four easy guidelines.

1. DEFROST WINDOWS THE RIGHT WAY Sudden temperature changes weaken your windshield and make it more susceptible to cracking. For this reason, never pour hot water on your windshield during winter. Instead, defrost using the vehicle’s heating system. If you want to speed up the process, consider purchasing a block heater. This device has the additional advantage of providing extra warmth to your vehicle — including the windshield — when it’s off. 2. UPGRADE YOUR WINDSHIELD WIPERS As your windshield is more fragile during winter, worn out or damaged
windshield wipers can scratch the glass. Make sure you have high-quality wipers. Also, take care to clean them regularly and confirm that they’re properly placed. If you’re purchasing new wipers, consider getting a model designed specifically for winter, made with material ice doesn’t stick to. Otherwise, you can prevent ice buildup by putting a newspaper or a thin piece of cardboard between the wipers and the windshield. 3. DRIVE DEFENSIVELY The best way to protect your windshield when you’re behind the wheel is to cruise at a safe distance from other vehicles. In winter especially, you don’t want to have rocks and other road debris flying towards your windshield. 4. GET CRACKS REPAIRED RIGHT AWAY If despite taking these precautions you get a crack or chip in your windshield, get it fixed as soon as possible. Cracks tend to expand, leading to costlier repairs.
Five winter braking safety tips Due to the snow, ice and
black ice that can accumulate on frosty roads, braking during winter is nothing less than an art: master it by following these five steps. 1. KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE
When the road is snowy, slick or icy, your tires can’t grip as well and more time and distance is needed to stop. Always stay a safe distance behind the vehicle in front of you when driving in such conditions. 2. DECREASE YOUR SPEED Drive at a speed that permits you to safely turn, change lanes, brake and react to hazards. 3. AVOID SUDDEN ACTIONS Suddenly accelerating, braking or turning in winter can cause your vehicle to skid. When you’re approaching a stop sign or a turn, brake early and gently. Only speed up gradually. 4. ADJUST YOUR BRAKING METHOD If you don’t have an anti-lock braking system, you’ll need to press more gently on the brake pedal when the road is slippery. If your wheels begin to lock, regain con trol by pumping your brakes (applying and releasing pressure on the pedal). Slamming your foot on the brake pedal will only make matters worse. If you do have anti-lock brakes, simply keep your foot on the pe dal until your vehicle has come to a stop, even if you feel vibrations. Only use the handbrake if necessary; this action can make matters worse by causing your car to spin. 5. LOOK AFTER YOUR BRAKES Get your brakes regularly inspected, maintained and — if need be — repaired by a mechanic.
