Home PLUGGING ENERGY LEAKS The average home can lose 30 percent of its heat through small openings in walls, windows and doors. Sealing those gaps can help re tain warm air and lower your heating bills by as much as 10 percent. Here are some easy and inexpensive ways to plug your home's energy leaks: • If you have storm windows, in stall them. • Install the storm glass instead of the screen in a combination storm dtxtr. It you don’t have a storm dtx>r, get one. • To quick-seal an older, single-pane window, apply an interior storm win dow kit of plastic shrink-wrap film. Use a hair dryer to tighten the film. • Repair and replace any broken win dow or door glass. • Outside the house, use caulk to seal gaps that are 1/2 inch or small er; use expanding tbam to fill wider openings. Seal cracks around doors, windows, water spigots, the dryer vent, pipe and electrical penetrations in the siding, and where the siding meets the foundation. • Inside, apply weather stripping around windows and doors. If you have a pull-down attic door, weather strip around the inside of it, too. • To seal the gap at the bottom of an exterior door, replace the threshold with a new one that has a vinyl in sert, which acts as a gasket between the bottom of the door and the floor. • Insert foam gaskets behind electri cal outlet cover plates. • When the tireplace isn't in use, close the damper to keels heated air from escaping up the chimney.

The soldiers burned the Iraqi currency and melted down the coins for scrap metal....with one exception. British soldiers led by Captain Chris McGinley found roughly 70,000 pounds of uncirculated Iraqi coins that were decom missioned by Saddam at the end of the first Gulf War. Captain McGinley came up with the idea to auction off those coins in London and use the proceeds to rebuild an orphanage in Basra that had been destroyed during Saddam’s reign. Saddam’s coins were sold, the orphan age in Basra was rebuilt, and the miraculous story of the coins was only just begin ning.... In late 2004, The Products for Good team was offered the opportunity to purchase the collection of Saddam’s coins. The team acted on the opportunity and developed a plan around utilizing these coins in accordance with Captain McGinely's original intent... selling what had at one time been Saddam’s property to create good things for as many people as possible.
