1:44 pm	Green Packaging for Valentines Day Valentine's Day is the second most popular holiday for card giving and related gifts and it generates a lot of packaging. If you buy candy it comes in a package. If you buy or have flowers delivered they were shipped in a package of some sort. Even cards were delivered to the store in a box or if you buy boxed in bulk. The point is we simply cannot eliminate packaging in our everyday lives. What we can do however, is figure out ways to make it better, more efficient and maybe even have a second life. As we prepare for the coming "Packaging Wars" that is people against packaging, it's time to rethink the role of product packaging. The packaging jobs we cannot eliminate, protect, convey, keep clean, sanitary, fresh, educate and to sell what's inside. What needs to be considered is what to do with it is after the product is consumed or used is a major problem. Approximately 30% of landfills consist of packaging materials. Can we effectively reduce packaging by considering the "lifecycle" of packaging? That is from conception to the ultimate disposal. That's how packaging solutions are born not just by reducing the amount of packaging material or changing the material is made out of to a supposedly more "eco" friendly alternative. Ponder how packaging can be integrated into the entire big picture of consumer products. We need to rethink the entire way products are packaged. Yes, many products are overpackaged. But what most consumers don't understand is that we can't have products without packaging and what manufactures and CPG's don't understand is that consumers want to see lees of it. There in lies the problem, miscommunication about the role of product packaging! Right now most environmental solutions consist of the 6'Rs. Recycle: Partner with a company that will turn use packaging into something else after it has been used or consumed; Example: Terracycle where CPG products are turned into other usable products for sale. Reduce: That is use less packaging where possible such as reconfiguring a design for better space utilization or lightweighting packaging materials; Example: Wal-Mart reconfiguring the traditional milk jug to a square bottle. Refill: Have a container that can be easily refilled with products using a lot less packaging material; Example: Method refillable cleaning products where you buy a designer container and refill with flexible pouches. Via SustainableIsGood.com Renew: Consider using packaging from the renewal natural resources. This is where are the "eco" materials are coming into play; Example: Plantable packaging embedded with seeds. Cargo Plant Love (plantable container) Repurpose: Design the packaging with another purpose in mind after it has been consumed making the package turn into another product. Example: Pizza boxes that tear apart into plates. Reuse: Buy products in packaging that can be used over and over again. Example: Glass bottles that can be refilled. These are a start but not the ultimate answer. So stay tuned for ideas thoughts and potential solutions. You have plenty of time to "green " your packaging for Valentines Day next year.

3:51 pm	Lithio and Roll Fed Labels The Author is a lithio labels & roll fed label specialist who has worked as a brand manager for over 11 years. Back in 2004, you couldn't walk into a room or turn on the TV without seeing that little yellow wristband. Kids. Celebrities. Politicians. They were all sporting a rubber Livestrong bracelet they'd bought for $1 to benefit the Lance Armstrong Foundation. And while it's not quite the fashion statement it once was, the canary yellow wristband resulted in nearly $70 million in fundraising and has become one of the most visible-and successful-cause marketing efforts in recent memory. Of course, the campaign had a strong celebrity component. Armstrong's inspirational battle back from cancer made him a global hero, and celebrities were quick to show their support. In wearing the yellow bracelets, people were able to emulate their icons and, at the same time, offer visible proof of their good will. But there's more to it. The ubiquity of the bracelets revealed how strongly people are looking for something to believe in-how they're thirsting to belong to something that matters. And those insights have increasing relevance for brands in these turbulent times. So what's your cause? And-more importantly-how can consumers band together to manifest their support? To be sure, you should approach cause marketing with care. Consumers have been promised a lot of things lately and you shouldn't underestimate their ability to (eventually) see through inauthentic pledges. The key lies in the daringness to stand for something. And maybe it's just ONE thing. If you clutter the effort with too many promises of support, then it's not a stand for something but, rather, everything. And then you'll be just one of many who've let consumers down.

3:52 pm	Tip to find the right health insurance policy if your self employed The group health insurance rates at my day job increased 33% this year, after rising just over 30% last year. I have a family of three, and the new health insurance rates are now 11% of my salary, which in my opinion, is too high (while I won't disclose my actual salary, I will state that I earn a fair amount). The new health insurance rates made me think about getting individual health insurance for my family. Group vs. individual health insurance? Before we go further, it is important to understand the difference between individual health insurance and group health insurance. Basically, group health insurance plans guarantee all members of the group coverage, regardless of their health risk. Because coverage is guaranteed with group plans, they can be more expensive for relatively healthy individuals than an individual plan, which is priced based on your specific health history. In my case, my family and I are healthy, so it is a good idea to investigate individual health insurance options. Determine your health insurance needs to find the best plan When comparing health insurance plans, it's important to make sure you are not only comparing apples to apples, but also getting the best plan for your needs. Make sure you get the best health insurance plan for your needs, whether that is an HMO plan, PPO plan, high deductible health insurance plan with a health savings account, hybrid, or other. [More on health insurance options]. Finding and purchasing health insurance while self-employed One of the biggest concerns among the self employed individuals is health insurance costs, which can be expensive. Some self-employed individuals may be eligible for a group health insurance plan if they meet certain criteria, or they may be eligible for other health benefits, such as COBRA benefits. For example, if you are leaving a traditional job to become self-employed, you may be eligible for COBRA. If you are not leaving a job that offers health insurance, then ignore the tip regarding COBRA coverage.

1:22 pm	How Small Changes make a big difference in Home Health Care Our caregivers support group meeting ended as it always does with the speaker asking the group in attendance if they have any questions. An elderly man from the back of the room raised his hand and asked the speaker to "tell us some amazing stories of someone who had your therapy". The truth is in healthcare many times the change or improvement isn't "amazing" by most standards. There was the case of Carl, an elderly man who had lost strength in his neck, which left his head always facing down looking at the floor. Then the therapist started working with Carl, and his neck became stronger and he is now able to hold his head up. This is "amazing" for Carl and his quality of life. Now when Carl is walking down the hall with his walker, he can smile at people and see who is greeting him. Carl can see where he is going and enjoy the environment around him. Carl is much safer in his movements around the Nursing Facility and can make new friends. Imagine being a man with Parkinson's disease hearing music playing during music therapy & then one day, he is able to stand and dance with his wife for a few steps. This in and of itself is amazing. Despite the fact that it took 2 nurses to get him back to his chair, for those few moments, he was amazed. These aren't events on the scale of things we tend to witness in movies or on television, they aren't that grandiose. But sometimes it is the small success that is so rewarding for people who work in healthcare. While the man at the support group meeting probably didn't want a story about someone like Carl now able to raise his head and say "Hi" to people. It might not be splashy, but for Carl it really is amazing. The Author is a home health care specialist that works for a homecare company in greenwich. (Comment on this)

11:13 am	The key to healthy hvac systems Air filters protect your hvac system. When we work in a dirty environment, we usually wear a mask to protect our lungs. The filters in your hvac system have the same function. The filter in your hvac system has two main functions. First it helps to improve your home's indoor air quality. This can improve the health of your family. According to the U.S. EPA, the air inside your home can be 2 to 5 times worse than the air outside. The second thing they do is to keep your hvac system clean. If the dirt gets through the filter it can clog your furnace's secondary heat exchanger. This can happen if you have a condensing type furnace. If you don't have a condensing type furnace, the dirt will collect on your ac unit's evaporator coil. Either way, this restricts air flow. This in turn can cause higher temperatures during heating system operation and premature failure of parts. During cooling operation, the operating efficiency will be reduced, your electric bills will go up, and it will cause more wear and tear on system parts. The filter is usually located in one of the following places: 1. In a grille in your wall or ceiling. These are commonly called return air filter grilles. 2. In a slot on the side, bottom or top of your furnace. It depends on the style of furnace you have. 3. Inside the blower compartment of the furnace. This is common on older furnaces. Most manufacturers do not recommend this on new furnaces. Air filters have a standard rating. This rating, minimum efficiency reporting value (MERV), is a number from 1-16. You don't have to know all the technical jargon. Simply put, as the number goes up the unit will stop more and smaller particles. **NOTE** If you decide to replace your existing air filter with one of a higher MERV rating, you should check to make sure you have sufficient airflow after you replace it. This is done by checking the temperature rise in the heating mode and the temperature drop in the cooling mode. Many hvac units come with a washable type of filter. These will usually be made of foam. These have a merv rating of 1 to 4. You can also use a disposable type which is normally made of fiberglass. These have a merv rating of 1 to 4. Usually you can hold those types of filters up and see through them. If that is the case, you know they are not doing their job. Photobucket Another disposable type is the pleated filter. These have a merv rating of 5 to 8. These products have more surface area to catch the dirt. They also distribute the airflow more evenly. This means the fan is less likely to pull the dirt through the filter. This is the type of filter that we recommend for most applications. They are the best value in terms of price for the filter and keeping your hvac system clean. **HOT TIP** An innovative product called the SmartFilter can replace your existing one inch pleated filter with a four inch media filter. This can help your system to operate quieter and more efficiently. Air filters with the higher MERV ratings are sometimes called allergy filters. Some are made of advanced materials which set up a static electrical charge. They are called electrostatic filters and are able to capture much smaller particles. Some come with an antimicrobial treatment. This prevents organisms from living on the filter when they are trapped. Using the right air filter is only half of the answer though. If it is not replaced often enough, your hvac system operating efficiency will go down. This will cost you on your utility bills as well as wear and tear on the hvac unit. Most people, even those in the hvac industry, don't change their filter as often as they should. It is usually out of sight and out of mind. Most hvac service companies offer service contracts where they change your filter. These contracts can be expensive when you consider you can do it yourself. There are other options if you have special needs such as allergies. The ultimate filter is called a high efficiency particulate air filter(HEPA). These remove virtually everything but the replacement elements can be expensive unless you shop around. You should also keep in mind that if the filter is a part of the central hvac system and the fan is not continuously running, then most of the time the filter will not be doing anything.
