Instead of swip- ing these cards, you’ll be asked to insert your card in the terminal and keep it there until prompted to remove. Whether you’re using one for the fi rst time or are getting used to the subtle differences between chip and magnetic stripe, here are a few things to keep in mind. • Chip cards are a weapon against fraud. Each time you insert your chip card into a chip- enabled terminal, the tiny computer embedded gen- erates a unique single-use code. Because that code is different in every transaction, the data fl owing through retailers’ systems is much less appealing to hackers. Even if they steal the data, it’s nearly im- possible for them to use it to create a fake or coun- terfeit copy of your card. By January 2016, coun- terfeit fraud dollars at U.S. chip-enabled merchants had fallen by 26 percent from the year before. • Don’t worry if you don’t have a chip card yet. Whether you’re paying with a Visa chip or magnetic stripe card, you’re still protected by Vi- sa’s Zero Liability policy, which guarantees that you won’t be held responsible for unauthorized charges made with your account. • Verifi cation isn’t always needed. Small pur- chases for everyday items, which account for more than 70 percent of transactions, can be processed Chip cards and chip-enabled merchants put America on the way to the next level of pay- ment security for consumers, businesses and fi nancial institutions. without a signature or a PIN. • You can choose signature or PIN. Some merchants require cardholders to enter a PIN for purchases with a debit card. If you ever have a problem signing for your debit purchases with a Visa card, let the company know. Both PIN and signature are supported by chip cards. Signature- based cards are more common in the U.S. and you can use your chip card with a signature, even in countries where PINs are common. • Chip transactions are getting faster. Pay- ment networks are working on ways to make chip transactions faster. For example, Visa’s Quick Chip for EMV speeds up checkout by streamlining card processing. Once a merchant’s chip terminal is up- dated, customers can dip and remove their EMV chip card from the terminal, typically in two sec- onds or less, without waiting for the transaction to be fi nalized. • The transition to chip is accelerating. Each week, about 23,000 new merchant locations turn on chip terminals. The U.S. already has more Visa chip cards than any other country. • There’s more progress behind the scenes. Chip cards are part of a much broader effort to de- liver ironclad security with each transaction. Ad- vanced fraud detection analytics are also applied to each and every Visa transaction, evaluating up to 500 data points in less than a millisecond to iden- tify and disrupt suspicious activity. New services, such as mobile location confi rmation and consumer transaction controls, enlist cardholders’ mobile de- vices in the fi ght against fraud. Cardholder verifi ca- tion is also getting smarter, with the introduction of biometric authentication. Meanwhile, technol- ogy is making mobile, in-app and online purchases more secure.

Wildfi re Smoke Travels Farther Than You Think D-057 ERVICES D-077 CLEANING SERVICES A wildfi re hundreds of miles away can be a threat to your health-but there are steps you can take to protect yourself.

Florence Janitorial Services Licensed Bonded Insured For clean as a whistle, call men and people more than 65 years old. In- creases were also found in other forms of heart disease. How To Protect Yourself From Wildfi re Smoke Fortunately, there are precautions you can take if wildfi res occur near you. Here are a few: 1. Protect your indoor air. Keep win- dows and doors closed. If you use an air conditioner, keep the fresh-air intake closed. A high-performance air purifi er such as the IQAir HealthPro Plus will help remove smoke particles of all sizes from indoor air. It will also help control ozone levels. This is critical if you live in an urban area downwind (even remotely) from wildfi res. 2. Remain indoors as much as possible. This is especially true for those with respira- tory or heart disease, the elderly and children. 3. Wear a mask outdoors. A paper dust mask or surgical mask is not suffi cient. Choose a respirator mask with an N95 or N100 rating. 4. Avoid activities that further pollute the indoor air. Avoid burning candles, us- ing the fi replace, or even vacuuming (unless you own a high-perfor_mance HEPA vacuum cleaner). All of these can otherwise become additional sources of indoor air pollutants. Wildfi res can occur with little or no no- tice, and they can poison the air for hundreds of miles or more. Be ready to react quickly and take the right steps to protect your home and family from unhealthy air quality when wildfi res occur. (541) 997-6977 (541) 999-0896 P.O.

BBR No. 8689 (NAPSA)-There’s been a disturbing pat- tern of increasing wildfi res in the U.S. and Canada. Nine of the 10 largest wildfi res in the U.S. in recent history have occurred since 2000. The U.S. Forest Service now spends more than half its annual budget on fi refi ght- ing, compared to 16 percent just 20 years ago. In Canada, hundreds of wildfi res burned throughout the nation in 2015 as a result of scorching temperatures and drought. The trend is likely to continue, and wild- fi res are likely to be a health concern for areas far downwind. More than ever, it’s important to know what steps to take when wildfi res af- fect the air quality where you live. Wildfi re Smoke Travels Farther Than Previously Thought In one recent study, researchers discov- ered that rural wildfi re smoke drifts farther from its source than was previously thought. Examining satellite data to track the move- ment and dispersal of smoke plumes, they found that wildfi re smoke drifts at a very high altitude, eventually reaching distant urban centers and interacting with other pollutants to create elevated ozone levels far from the fi re source. Previous studies had found that wildfi res release nitrogen oxide and hydrocarbons that contribute to elevated ozone levels, but those effects were seen mostly in rural areas, not distant urban centers far removed from the fi res. Breathing ozone can trigger a variety of negative health effects, including cough- ing, throat irritation and congestion in healthy people. Furthermore, ozone can worsen symptoms of bronchitis, emphysema and asthma. Wildfi res And Heart Attacks Another recent study, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, reported new evidence of a connection be- tween wildfi re smoke particles and acute heart disease, including cardiac arrest. Smoke particles that are 2.5 microns or less in diam- eter (known as “fi ne” particles) in particular were found to be associated with a short-term increased risk of cardiac arrest. The study also found an increase in emergency-department hospital visits associated with exposure to fi ne smoke particles from wildfi res and a 6.9 percent increase in cardiac arrests as a result of exposure to wildfi re smoke particles. The increase was most strongly associated with or bring in a clipping to attach to your entry into the drawing for a gift certificate.
