The main cause of heart
attack is a fatty buildup in
the blood vessels, that blocks
the supply of blood to the
heart. "About 50,000 Cana-
dians will die of heart attack
this year. Every cne of us,
some amount of fatty build- Odds ends very YOung to very old, has
up", says Dr. A.F. Graham,
Emergency -Cardiac ,• Care,
Ontario Heart Foundation.
"It's called atherosc lero-
is.- Dr. Graham said. "and
although it can start early in Thanks for the advice
life, the buildup can be
slowed by controlling risk
factors." '
Smoking, high blood pres-
sure and a diet high in
saturated fats and cholester-
ol are major risk factors in
heart, disease'. "Imagine,"
said Dr. Graham, "the com-
bination of partly clogged
blood vessels plus further
narrowing caused by smok-
ing_with high blood pressure
straining the vessel walls.
Prevention is tremendously
important in reducing pre-
mature death from heart and
blood vessel diseases.
"High blood pressure has
' been found in teenagers,"
Dr. Graham said, "all the
more reason why regular
medical checkups should be-
gin at an early age. Lack of
exercise and obesity are also
considered risk factors for
heart attack - factors which
take their , toll over the
years."
Because you may be with
someone who will have a •
heart attack some day, it is
important to recognize the
early warning signals of
heart attack: uncomfortable
pressure, fullness, squeezing
or pain in the centre of the
chest (which may spread_ te
the neck. shoulders, or arms)
and which lasts for more than
2 Minutes. Severe Pain,
dizziness, fainting, sweating,
nausea Or.shortness of breath
may' also occur; Short, sharp,
stabbing twinges of pain are
usually not signals of a heart
attack.
"Just nowing the warning
signals will save• many lives,
because prompt emergency
care can save many of the
35,000 who die before they
reach the hospital. Most
important is prevention,
however, and the Ontario
Heart foundation , has pre-
pared and distributes edu- e'4%41,4
cational materials on both
prevention and warning
signals," said Dr. Graham.
"Still. it costs, money to do
these things," Dr. Graham
reminded. "and that's why

LOOK FOR THE
ENERGUIDE LABEL-
When you buy a major electrical appliance,
you're picking up two price tags. One is the
cost of the appliance. The other is the cost of
the electricity to operate it over its lifetime.
Until recently the energy price tag
was missing. You paid now —but had
little idea of what you would go on paying.
Now there's 'a second tag, in the form of
an-Energuide ,label.
WHAT IS ENERGUIDE?
Energuide is an appliance label-
ling program under which energy con-
sumption "stickers" are attached to new
refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers,
clothes washers, and kitchen ranges
offered for sale in Canada. The pro-
gram was initiated by the Government
of Canada and is operated in co-opera-
tion with consumer groups, appliance
manufacturers and retailers, electrical
utilities and provincial governments. '
COMPARISON SHOPPING
The whole idea behind Energuide is
to help you, the consumer, to compare the
energy cost tags of appliances and deter-
mine which is the best buy. Comparison shop-
ping and wise decisions can save you a great
deal of energy and money over the long run.
HOW DOES ENERGUIDE
WORK?
The label on each new appliance shows
the number of kiloWatt hours of electricity
(kWh) consumed by that appliance in one
month of normal operation. This rating is
determined by a test developed by the
Canadian Standards Association for all
appliances labelled. The number is represent-
ative of the energy that the appliance will con-
sume under normal operation in your home.
It's not exact; the test could never duplicate
precisely all the conditions in your home. But
it is correct as a comparative rating, to
indicate the difference between models.
•
To convert the Energuide rating in kWh
todollarsonultiply by the cost of a kWh in
your area. (The current national average is
40 per kWh.) This will give you the operating
cost for one month.
kWh per month x cents per kWh =. cost
per month.
WORK OUT THE
LIFETIME COST
To really-appreciate the importance of
Energuide ratings,EgureiTut the lifetime
energy cost of the appliance. The average
major appliance lasts 15 years, or 180
months.
Multiply the cost per month by 180 and
the number you get will be impressive. And it
will be an underestimate, because it assumes
a constant electricity price over 15 years>
TWO REFRIGERATOR
EXAMPLES
f Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada
publishes each year the Energuide ratings for,:
new appliances. From the 1981 Refrigerator
listing come the following examples: '
Type andOefrost-System
Model A —Two-door, top
mounted
freezer,
frost free
Model B —Two-door, top
mounted •
freezer,
frost free 17.1 190
Over a 15-year lifetime Model A,
although slightly larger, would cost you
$842.40 for energy (at a constant 4{t/kW-h-).
Model B's energy cost would be $1;368.00.
That's a difference of $525.60!
WHEN MORE IS LESS
The appliance with the1ower Energuide
ratings may cost a littleitiore to buy
—they usually have more insulation,
better motors, more sophisticated'
controls. But as the above example
shows, the value of the energy they'
„save over their life cycle will pay for the
extrainvestment many times over.
So when you're shoppink for
major appliances look at both tags, do a
little figuring and buy the model that will
be cheapest over its life cycle — not just
the cheapest on its purchase price.
AN ENERGUIDE BONUS
FOR ALL
Besides providing consumers with
information for comparison shopping, the
Energuide program is having another effect.
Appliance manufacturers are improving the
energy efficiency of their models. Already
there have been some notable improvements
and experts predict that within a few years
major appliances will be consuming about
40% less electricity—while providing the
same' services. That's a powerful example of
how consumer power and industrial
innovation go hand in hand.

People have given me some valuable
advice through the years, but in all honesty.
they've given a few bloopers, too.
Finding my way around a strange city
often, causes me problems. I've learned to •
plot my course, if at all possible. before I
leave. This has proved successful several
times.-- -
Then along comes—helpful soul with, the
remark, "Oh, I know that city like the back
°env hand."
He or she then proceeds to give 'Me the
most direct route to my destination. The
words, "It's a cinch" or "Yoocan't miss it"
are a dead giveaway that I'm headed for
confesior
The ntaer directional aid I've' learned to
avoid, thanks to some friendlY_AdYisf-.is the
short cut.
Flow will I ever learn to bake if cooks keep
giving me instructions like: "Oh. you don't
need a measuring cup. Throw in a cup or so
of flour, add a pinch of salt, pour in a little
milk, stir until it feels right"?
Sometimes I ask the dumb questions:
"How should it-feel when it's right?"
The baker replies, "Oh, you'll just know."
The person with a green thumb advises
rite to buy a certain hardy plant. "Not even
you could kill it;" she says. "Just don't let it
get too dry-, but don't water it too mach. It
shouldn't get too much light, but it needs
some light."
If I was a betting person. I'd give the
hardy plant about two weeks to live.
Speaking of betting, I've become wary of
the horse expert who assures me: "This
baby caret lose!"
Somewhere I reed that you should talk to
your mechanic the way you talk to your
doctor. Describe the characteristics pf your
car's problems in terms similar to those
you would use to discuss the symptoms of a
human illness - coughing, wheezing, stiff-
ness, slowness to react.
You can try it if you want, but I guarantee
your friendly neighbourhood mechanic will
stare at you as though you've really flipped.
Now only have I been the recipient of
some bad advice but I've also, handed out
some tips that were less than the best.
' "For example. I headed one poor lost lady
to a lake rather than toward the town she
was looking for. I do hope she stopped in
time.
I also sent a friend to a movie that I
thought sounded like a real winner. It' was a
loser. But, in the true spirit of friendship,
she let me find out for myself that my advice
was wrong.
