Tip of the Week

If the power goes out, will the power company reduce your bill, pay for your spoiled groceries -- and where do they start the repairs? What end of town gets power first? How do they decide? How can using a battery-powered police scanner keep you on top of the news, the weather, and where the power people are? If you lose power, should you turn off everything or leave a few things on? What`s the best way to keep warm if you have nowhere else to go? How keeping a cell phone on hand can be a lifesaver. Is your house number where the emergencies crews can see it? Are there laws in your city or state to display your house number? Why or why not?
