(NAPSA)—Your front door istalking about you. Its appearancespeaks to your personality, decora-tors say.
Too often, the front door of ourhome tends to be drab shades ofbeige, brown, white and gray,while the fun, vibrant colors areused to make interior and exteriorwalls and siding stand out.
When you consider that all visi-tors pass through the front door, adull and dreary door could give thewrong impression. Your front doorcould be an opportunity to make abold statement about yourself witha vibrant blue, a knockout red or adaring yellow-green.
“Selecting big, bold color for thefront door and adding accent pil-lows and cushions for outdoor fur-niture or wall art on the outside isbecoming much more popular,”said PPG color expert Dee Schlot-ter. “Homeowners should use tradi-tional, long-lasting colors for homeexteriors and save the statement-making hues for accent pieces likedoors and porch furniture.”
A different shade for shutterscan also provide a colorful con-trast. Contrary to some beliefs,front doors and shutters don’talways have to match. In fact,using different colors on the twofeatures calls more attention andcan add appeal to your home. Theoutside of your house can in factdefine who you are and how youlive on the inside.
Exterior paint jobs are aboutmore than just the color, though.Selecting the proper products forvarious exterior surfaces canmake the difference between awell-executed paint job that willwithstand the natural elementsand one that will require signifi-cant upkeep to stay eye-catchingand impressive. Proper planningand priming before adding that
new, brighter color can ensurelongevity for a lively, vivacioushome exterior.
To spice up the exterior of yourhome and welcome friends andfamily in a whole new way, trythese tips:
•Choosing a color palette thatworks together is important. Mix,match and experiment before com-mitting to your new statement-making exterior color.
•Don’t forget the porch ceiling.Selecting a color other than whitecan play off features such as ceil-ing fans or even the brightness ofthe sky.
•What would your door looklike if it was painted red—try iton PPG Pittsburgh Paints’ PaintYour Own Room Visualizer—nowavailable on the tablet. Snap apicture of your door and thenapply any color you like so thatyou can see how it can change thepersonality of your whole home.
•Learn more through PPGPittsburgh Paints’ The Voice ofColor program. PPG PittsburghPaints analyzes upcoming colortrends and incorporates the huesinto color palettes. You can find itat www.voiceofcolor.com.

Your front door can actually helpexpress your personality.
(NAPSA)—New technology ismaking it easier to have a homethat is comfortable in any season.This is good news for home-
owners since many older homes inthe U.S. still have cooling andheating systems that leave partsof a house either unbearably hotor uncomfortably cold.Choosing the right system is key
since this allows homeowners tocool the rooms they use the mostwhile saving energy in less-usedareas of the house. Industry expertsrefer to this as “zone control.”Fortunately, new systems from
Mitsubishi Electric Cooling & Heat-ing employ advanced technologythat can precisely adjust each room’stemperature to the homeowner’spreference.“With these systems, I can be
in control of the air my kids arebreathing,” said design expertCortney Novogratz. “Also, the zon-ing capabilities allow me to setareas of my house at differenttemperatures. With seven kids,being able to set the thermostat sothat different areas are at varioustemperatures is a huge benefit.My kids’ rooms can be set at atemperature where they’re com-fortable, while the rest of thehouse might be set at anothertemperature.”This “zone-control” feature
helps homeowners reduce energycosts. According to the Environ-mental Protection Agency (EPA),50 percent of the average home’senergy bill can be linked directlyto cooling and heating costs,amounting to approximately$1,100 per year. Controlling your
comfort on a room-by-room basisgives you more control over yourenergy budget.
Multiple BenefitsIn addition, homeowners can
also receive a tax credit of 10 per-cent, or up to $300, for qualifyingMitsubishi Electric systemsthrough the American TaxpayerRelief Act of 2012.These systems benefit the
environment as well. They aremade of mostly recyclable partsand use an environmentallyfriendly refrigerant that won’tpollute the environment.
Control From A DistanceAnother feature that makes
this a cool way to add comfort toyour home is the fact that thesystem can be controlled any-time, anywhere through a smart-phone or other Internet-enableddevice.To learn more, visit the website
at www.mitsubishi-cooling.com.
NewTechnology Puts Comfort UnderYour Control
The ability to control your com-fort on a room-by-room basisgives you more control over theenergy budget for your home.

(NAPSA)—According to theAmerican Cancer Society, there’ssome good news about childhoodcancer: The vast majority of chil-dren with cancer will survive formany years. While cancer remainsthe leading cause of death by dis-ease for children under the age of15, more kids are living, morefamilies remain whole, and moredays once filled with grief arespent celebrating life.
The advancements in childhoodcancer treatments are astounding.That said, there are challengesthat become more pressing everyday as a result of this positivetrend. Treating cancer isn’t easyon the doctors, researchers and,especially, the patients. With can-cer, the goal is survival and themethods are often harsh and comewith long-term effects.
The ProblemFor many children, survival is
only half the battle. Certainhealth problems called late effectsoften arise, including heart, lungand kidney issues. Often, healthcare providers for adults whohave survived childhood cancerare in the dark as to what treat-ments were used and what theeffects may have been. Thismakes selecting the proper proto-cols for adulthood health carevery difficult.
A ResourceDrs. Lillian Meacham and Ann
Mertens at the Aflac Cancer Cen-ter in Atlanta understand theseeffects better than most and havededicated their careers to helpingyoung people survive the cure aswell as the cancer itself. Theyalso created SurvivorLink.Endowed in part by Aflac, it isthe only statewide Web-baseddata source for childhood cancersurvivors.
Until recently, many childhoodcancer survivors were unaware ofthe effect their treatments couldhave on their long-term health.The site provides a cache of infor-mation for doctors and nurseswho treat cancer survivors. Thesemedical professionals can accesshealth records online and under-stand the diagnosis and treat-ments that were used to fight thecancer and better approachfuture health care decisionsarmed with knowledge that inthe past was either forgotten ornot recorded in an accessible for-mat. Researchers also use thesource to study the long-termeffect of chemotherapy and radia-tion on children and develop newprotocols.
David R. Freyer, Director ofthe LIFE Cancer Survivorship &Transition Program at Children’sHospital Los Angeles, and Mem-ber of the Survivorship & Out-comes Steering Committee of theChildren’s Oncology Group,agrees that SurvivorLink helpsresearchers and providers whotreat patients after the cancer iscured.
“Many young patients areunaware of the details aroundtheir cancer treatments,” Dr.Freyer says. “SurvivorLink at theAflac Cancer Center helps gatherand coordinate treatment infor-mation that can be used to makedecisions that benefit childhoodcancer survivors throughout theirlives.”

vivorLink, go to www.cancersurvivorlink.org. To find out moreabout Aflac’s $80 million com-mitment to children’s cancertreatment and research, go towww.Aflac.com.
Knowledge Is Power For Surviving The Cure For Childhood Cancer
A new online resource can helppeople who survived childhoodcancer lead healthier adult lives.
(NAPSA)—Whenever you’reunder the sun, whether it’s sum-mer or winter, it’s important toguard against sun damage. Ultra-violet radiation from the sun isthe No. 1 cause of skin cancer, andit often doesn’t develop until laterin life.Take, for example, retiree Adel-
bert “Mac” McIntyre, who now livesin Hawaii. Between his day job lay-ing gas pipelines in San Diego andhis free time spent on the beach,Mac found both his life’s work andhis relaxation in the sunshine.All that sunlight took a toll.
When he had a routine physical,Kaiser Permanente doctors founda small spot on McIntyre’s chestthat caused some suspicion. “Theysaid it looked rather peculiar,” heremembered. Test results con-firmed that suspicion—McIntyrehad melanoma.Melanoma is the third most
common type of skin cancer, butit’s by far the most deadly becauseit can spread to a person’s lymphnodes and organs. The NationalCancer Institute estimates thatone in 50 men and women will bediagnosed with melanoma duringtheir lifetimes. More than 9,000people in the United States willdie from the disease this year.“When caught early, melanoma
is highly treatable,” saidAmy Reise-nauer, M.D., a Kaiser Permanentedermatologist. Although doctorsremoved McIntyre’s skin cancertwice in one year, he forgot to followup with his dermatologist. The can-cer developed for a third time.“I think it’s probably human
nature to feel like, well, I had some-thing on my skin, it was a skin can-cer, but they cut it out, so it’s done,”said Dr. Reisenauer. “But in fact—especially with melanoma—there isa risk for it to spread to other parts
of the body, and you really do needto be seen on a regular basis.”Fortunately, a newly created
melanoma patient registry flaggedMcIntyre’s missed visit. KaiserPermanente scheduled anotherappointment, and just in time. Dr.Reisenauer discovered melanomaon his back early enough to re-move it successfully.While some people may not be
so lucky, the good news is thatmany types of skin cancer areeasy to prevent and most can becured if caught early. You can seea video about McIntyre’s story athttp://bit.ly/19Rumc0.These lifesaving tips can help
you protect yourself against skincancer all year long.Who’s At Risk For MelanomaThough men over 50 are most at
risk for developing melanoma,there is a rise in young womendeveloping melanoma as well. Butthese demographics are not exclu-sive, and often, men and womenwho develop melanoma are dealingwith fallout from sun damage thatbegan when they were children.
How To Spot MelanomaMelanoma can be found with
a simple self-examination usinga full-length mirror. At its earli-est stage, melanoma is usuallyidentif iable by oddly shapedmoles or marks that appear onthe body. Know the “ABCDs” ofmelanoma:•A is for Asymmetry. One
half of the mole looks differentfrom the other half.•B is for Border Irregular-
ity. The edges are ragged, notchedor blurred.•C is for Color. Watch for
shades of red and black, or a red,white and blue mottled appearance.•D is for Diameter. The mole
is larger than a pencil eraser.(Harmless moles are usuallysmaller than this.)A self-exam for any of these
symptoms should be done once amonth.How To Prevent Skin Cancer•Avoid the sun when its rays
are the strongest—between 10a.m. and 3 p.m.•Wear clothing to protect
exposed skin—a wide-brimmedhat, long pants, sunglasses and along-sleeved shirt.•Apply sunscreen that protects
against both UVA and UVB rayswith a sun protective factor (SPF)of 15 or higher. Look for all theseterms (UVA, UVB and SPF) onthe label.•Reapply sunscreen every two
hours for maximum protectionfrom UVA and UVB rays.•Avoid indoor tanning.Where To Learn More
