It is the eve of Canada Day on July 1 and Independence Day here in the United States.   We will be going dark for the next two weeks to gear up for the new Quarter.   Our Twitter Channel will be updated daily with our Nuzzel and Paper_Li Updates which is a compilation of updates as we look forward to being of service.   

Please note the following guidance courtesy of the Federal Emergency Management Agency:


Stay Safe While Enjoying Fireworks

Attend Public Fireworks Displays
The Fourth of July is approaching, and that means barbeques and fireworks! Many people love seeing the bright colors fly through the night air, but it is important to keep in mind that fireworks are explosives, and only professionals should handle them.

A study by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) shows that more than 200 people, on average, go to the emergency room every day with fireworks-related injuries in July close to the Independence Day holiday. Follow these tips to prevent injury from fireworks:
  • Attend fireworks displays and leave the lighting to the professionals.
  • Do not try to re-light or pick up fireworks that have not fully ignited.
  • Keep sparklers away from children. They can burn at temperatures about 2,000 degrees - hot enough to melt some metals.


For more information on fireworks safety, check out the CPSC Fireworks page.
