Blue Angels air show begins tonight NAS Pensacola celebrates 100th anniversary with Blues, beginning with night show at 4 p.m., Nov. 7; aerial acts and displays Nov. 8-9 From NASP PAO

The Navy’s Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, will close the 2014 season at the annual Homecoming Air Show aboard Naval Air Station Pensacola today, Nov. 7, through Nov. 9.

In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the air station, this year’s show days will include a special night show with various acts lighting up the night sky with pyrotechnics tonight, Nov. 7, at 4 p.m. (gates open at 3 p.m.) and two full show days Nov. 8-9 at 9 a.m. (gates open at 8 a.m.).

“The Blue Angels Homecoming Air Show gives spectators the chance to get up close and personal with the airplanes and the pilots,” said Patrick Nichols, NAS Pensacola public affairs officer.

“They can see, touch, and climb into the planes on static display, talk to the air show pilots before and after their performances, and meet the Blue Angels who will visit the flight line after their dynamic show.”

Prior to the world-famous Blue Angels F/A 18 Hornet performances, the Blues’ C-130 Hercules transport known as “Fat Albert” will demonstrate to the crowd its short field take-off and low-level passes at 2 p.m., followed by the Blues.

Tentatively scheduled for all three days will be aerobatics by performers such as John Klatt in his “Screamin’ Sasquatch’ Jet Waco and David Martin will pilot his Brietling CAP 232. Roger Buis returns with air show favorite “Otto the Helicopter” and Matt Younkin will be flying aerobatics in his Beech 18.

Don’t miss the Shockwave Jet Truck, driven by Neal Darnell – a memorable attraction with its flames, fast speeds and power.

American icons the Budweiser Clydesdales will be on display Nov. 8. The Clydesdales were first introduced to the public in April 1933 and have been seen by audiences all over the world.

Visitors may also stroll around more than 50 static display aircraft, from early aviation vintage planes to state-of-the-art modern fighters and more. There will also be a “Kids Zone” for children.

Admission and parking for all shows is free. Areas will be reserved for the physically challenged. Food and memorabilia will be available at numerous concession stands. Pets and coolers are not permitted. Security personnel and signs will direct spectators to parking

Southeast installations earn prestigious SecNav energy awards

By Earl Bittner NavFac Southeast Public Affairs Office

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (NNS) – The Secretary of the Navy (SecNav), Ray Mabus, announced the Fiscal Year 2014 Energy and Water Management Award winners Oct. 21 naming several installations in the southeast where NavFac Southeast facilitates energy conservation programs.

“This is wonderful news for

NAS Pensacola winner at Gold level NavFac Southeast,” said Capt.

Lore Aguayo, NavFac Southeast operations oficer.

“Selection for these awards are not based on individual accomplishments – it’s a team effort.

And together, as a team, we will continue achieving and exceeding the secretary of the Navy’s energy goals.”

Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) Parris Island, S.C., was recognized as the Marine Corps Large Shore award, earning a $45,000 prize. Marine Corps Logistics Base (MCLB), Albany, Ga., was honored with the Marine Corps Small Shore award, earning $30,000 for its program.

“We are very excited to win

this level award for the third time in last four years,” said Col. Donald Davis, MCLB Albany commanding officer. “This SecNav-level energy award is in recognition of the incredible efforts by our teams at NavFac Southeast and MCLB Albany.

The facility engineers and energy management experts worked hard to reduce our energy intensity (consumption) by 40 percent and the continued

growth of our renewable energy portfolio. I am confident that the continued efforts of this team will have us off the grid by the summer of 2017 and additional recognition as the first ‘NetZero’ base in the United States Marine Corps.”

Naval Station Mayport, Fla., was recognized as a Platinum Award winner. Platinum levels of achievement indicate an outstanding energy program and an

The parade will end at Veterans Memorial Park, where a formal observance is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m.

The program being presented by the Veterans Memorial Park Foundation will begin with a moment of silence before the bell tower chimes the hour of the 1918 armistice. Singers from the Pensacola Opera will perform a patriotic medley, and Kitt Lough will sing all the stanzas of the “Star-Spangled Banner” to mark the bicentennial of the national anthem. Colors will be posted by members of the Naval Air Station Pensacola (NASP) Color Guard, and a NASP bugler will play “Taps.”

Paul Poling, NASP food service officer, thanked the workers for their service, noting that the ice storm and floods earlier this year created significant challenges to the GCE employees, yet they rose to the task.

Poling also shared the number of meals the food service workers produced in the last year – a staggering 3,338,102 meals served.

“These commands executed comprehensive efficiency programs with senior–level command involvement, well–staffed and trained energy teams, aggressive awareness campaigns, innovative energy efficiency measures, and consistent reduction in energy consumption,” said Mabus in his award announcement.

“Congratulations and thank you for your efforts. Energy and water management are critical to the accomplishment of the Navy’s mission,” said Mabus in his award announcement. “Energy specifically is one of my top priorities and your performance has significantly advanced progress towards achievement of our goals. Your excellence in energy and water management is an example for all other commands to follow. We must all continue to be good stewards of our resources and treat them as the strategic asset they increasingly are. In the process, we will reduce consumption, waste less, and free up funding to better support our warfighters.”

Both MCRD Parris Island and MCLB Albany are authorized to fly the SecNav energy flag for a period of one year and will be recognized at award ceremonies at dates to be determined.

I hate all that dust in the wind, and on my furniture

By Lisa Smith Molinari Military Spouse Columnist

Dust bunnies are the bane of my existence.

Well, that might be a tad dramatic, but let’s just say that I pretty much hate dusting.

Then again, my mother taught me to never use the word “hate” so let’s go with this: Dusting is an activity of which I am not particularly fond.

(And I get bonus points for not ending with a preposition.)

You see, I just spent all last week cleaning my 100-yearold base house for a neighborhood party. Even though every military family on my street has the exact same old house with it’s government budget linoleum floors and gazillion layers of paint, we still try to spruce things up when we host each other.

So I cleaned the house for my guests. Sure, housework is pretty lousy all the way around, but dusting is, by far, the most frustrating and futile of household chores.

Take, for example, vacuuming. On the cleaning satisfaction scale (this doesn’t exist, but just go with it) vacuuming is a 10. There’s something about the whirring, the amps, and the way you can hear de-

bris being slurped up the suction tube. Popcorn kernel on the rug? THWUMP. Gone.

Crumbs on the cushion?

SHLUSH. Gone. Sand on the hardwood? FFFWPT. Gone.

Other tasks such as folding laundry and ironing are not as exhilarating as vacuuming, but the monotony can be minimized by simply turning on the television. Putting a crease in my husband’s cammies is actually quite riveting if done while watching a catfight on “The Real Housewives of New Jersey.” And I must admit, there are days when I would rather chew my own arm off than empty the dishwasher for the umpteenth time, but it’s really not so bad if I can catch a rerun of “House Hunters” on the kitchen TV in the process.

I think it’s safe to say that there’s not a soul on this planet who truly enjoys cleaning bathrooms. However, the revolting nature of this foul chore is so universally recognized, that there are a plethora of products on the market to make the job palatable. Flushable toilet scrubbing wands, automatic shower sprayers, disinfecting wipes, bleaching toilet tank tablets, and just in case you can’t even stomach

balding. It’s always going to be there, so you’ve just got to deal with it.

And unfortunately, no one has invented anything to make dusting any easier. Here we are in the 21st century, and in order to dust your house, you’ve still got to grab a rag – your son’s old football T-shirt is as good as anything else – and a can of furniture polish and get to work.

About the columnist Lisa Smith Molinari, mother of three, has been a military spouse for 20 years (and running). She also writes columns for Military Spouse magazine and a blog at www.themeat andpotatoesoflife.com.

She and her family are stationed at Naval Station Newport in Rhode Island. harmless soap scum, there are Scrubbing Bubbles who will gladly do it for you.

But dusting? Dust is one of those sad facts of life, like stretch marks and male pattern

You may be able to catch a few minutes of a favorite show while tackling the family room, but that brief distraction is short-lived. You have still got to plod, slowly and methodically, room to room, spraying, rubbing and wiping. Starting with the cob-webby ceiling fan blades and hitting every last desk, lampshade, molding,

photo frame, table, piano key and baseboard, all the way down to the tumbleweeds of dusty dog hair on the floor.

Then, to make matters worse, the instant your ionically charged ShamWow glides over the coffee table, there are millions more minute particles depositing themselves right back on the surface. We can’t see the little buggers, but every minute of every day, they are there, coursing through our ductwork, wafting from room to room, floating from the ceiling to the floor, landing silently on every horizontal surface in our homes.

Where do these particles come from and why are they hell-bent on banishing us to a lifetime of dusting drudgery? Unless you want to read about dead skin cells, I don’t recommend Googling this question.

Just accept dust as a fact of life, and be thankful that you have a house that needs dusting, because it means you have a home.

NAS Jax air show draws record crowd Next up: NAS Pensacola 2014 Blue Angels Homecoming Air Show Nov. 7-9 From Naval Air Station Jacksonville Public Affairs

J

ACKSONVILLE, Fla. (NNS) – Naval Air Station (NAS) Jacksonville (Jax) hosted an air show featuring the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps flight demonstration squadron, the Blue Angels, and 13 other military and civilian aviation acts at its airfield Oct. 24-26.

The air show broke previous NAS Jax air show attendance records with more than 297,000 people and 2,100 boaters attending during the three-day event.

“I didn’t know what to expect a year out when we started planning for this,” said NAS Jacksonville Commanding Officer Capt. Roy Undersander.

“It is really eye opening to see it all come together.”

Undersander said that the effort the base put forth exceeded his expectations.

“My expectation was to present a quality air show that was conducted safely for our community to enjoy,” he said. “I think the NAS Jax team did all of it with great class.”

According to Undersander a lot of effort was put into moving air show traffic off base in a timely manner.

“I’m very proud of our base security force as well as the 11 state and local law enforcement agencies that supported this event.

When you have more than a quarter million people attending an event you can

expect delays. I want our community to know how much we truly appreciate their attendance and continued support of our armed forces.

Navy demonstrates new modular mission autonomous ground vehicle

By Dan Broadstreet NSWC PCD Public Affairs

PANAMA CITY, Fla. (NNS) – The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) and Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) Systems Center Pacific (SSC Pacific) Reconnaissance and Detection Expendable Rover (RaDER) team recently demonstrated the autonomous operation of the first RaDER prototype.

The successful demonstration was conducted at SPAWAR’s Point Loma Test Facility in San Diego.

“This was our first opportunity to show

all the stakeholders what we have been working on for the past two years,” said NSWC PCD RaDER Project Engineer Jeff Dinges.

The RaDER concept was developed at NSWC PCD and initially funded as a Naval Innovative Science and Engineering (NISE) effort for 2013. The RaDER is designed to provide a low-cost, autonomous, modular-vehicle capability for fielding numerous explosive hazard defeat (EHD) and counter-tactical surveillance and targeting (CST) mission packages.

“I believe this is what the NSWC PCD NISE efforts are all about,” said Dinges.

“The RaDER analysis team performed the research to identify gaps in the Marine Corps’ strategic objectives and developed the RaDER concept to fill a gap.”

As the NISE effort progressed, the NSWC PCD team began working closely with Product Manager Engineer Systems (PdM ES) Joe Klocek’s team at Marine Corps Systems Command (MCSC).

“We were able to develop requirements with a target transition organization during the engineering process,” said Dinges. “This team effort between MCSC, the PdM ES and NSWC PCD helped refine the requirements for the platform and future mission capabilities.”

According to Dinges, some of these missions include route reconnaissance and clearance detection, proofing and situational awareness.

“We analyzed over 13 different mission packages to integrate onto RaDER,” said Dinges. “Even with a modular mission capability platform producing 750 watts of sensor power, RaDER maintains an all-terrain capability with four-wheel drive and a fuel-efficient three-cylinder diesel capable of over 150 miles of range.”

NavFac SE awards $10 million contract to fix Corry ‘A’ school BQ From Earl Bittner NavFac Southeast Public Affairs

J

acksonville, Fla. – Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) Southeast awarded a nearly $10 million firm-fixed-price contract Oct. 22 to Whitesell-Green Inc., a small business based in Pensacola to repair the Corry “A” School Bachelor Quarters 3709 and 3710 at NAS Pensacola Corry Station.

“This project will further help alleviate student barracks overcrowding as we send a growing number of Sailors through training at the Center for Information Dominance (CID) at Corry Station,” said NAS Pensacola Public Works Officer Cmdr. Jeff Deviney, who will oversee the project.

“The project will mirror the renovations that began last year with Bachelor Quarters 3707 and 3708 and, once complete,

the four buildings will share laundry, study and television rooms,” continued Deviney.

“Renovating these 1970-era facilities will eliminate health and safety hazards while providing suitable berthing for our students.”

The work to be performed includes interior demolition, minor structural repairs, sheet rock replacement on walls and ceilings, interior electrical repairs, interior plumbing replace-

ment, installation of fire suppression system and detection systems, floor covering replacement, interior and exterior door replacement, roof replacement, stairwell repairs, heating, ventilation and air conditioning system replacement, miscellaneous interior repairs and construction of exterior walkways with handrails.

“It’s exciting to be part of a team that considers small business the first option to meet the NavFac Southeast mission,” said Nelson Smith, NavFac Southeast small business deputy. “In addition to providing the best return on the dollar for our taxpayers, every contract awarded to a small business also helps our nation’s economy.”

Smith explained that this is one of many contract awards NavFac Southeast has provided

to the small business community. NavFac Southeast continues to build on its success by providing contract opportunities to small businesses.

Each year, NavFac establishes target goals for small business, small disadvantaged business, historically underutilized business zone small business, service-disabled veteranowned small business, and women-owned small business categories. Smith explained that the maximum practicable utilization of small business concerns is a matter of national interest with both social and economic benefits.

Work is expected to be completed by May 2016.

Innovation, leadership, performance: The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) manages the plan-

ning, design, construction, contingency engineering, real estate, environmental, and public works support for U.S. Navy shore facilities around the world. NavFac provides the Navy’s forces with the operating, expeditionary, support and training bases they need. NavFac is a global organization with an annual volume of business in excess of $18 billion. As a major Navy Systems Command and an integral member of the Navy and Marine Corps team, NavFac delivers timely and effective facilities engineering solutions worldwide.

NavFac proudly building on 172-year Navy heritage

By Don Rochon NavFac Public Affairs

WASHINGTON (NNS) – Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) marked 172 years of providing facilities engineering expertise to support the mission readiness of Navy and Marine Corps commanders recently.

In 1842, Secretary of the Navy Abel P. Upshur officially established NavFac’s predecessor, the Bureau of Naval Yards and Docks, to execute the design, construction and maintenance of Navy yards

and a few other shore stations around the eastern seaboard of the United States.

Eventually the Bureau and its responsibilities would grow into the global enterprise known as NavFac, which was officially established in May 1966.

“I cannot be more proud of our team and how they live up to our rich heritage each and every day,” said NavFac Commander and Chief of Civil Engineers Rear Adm. Kate Gregory. “NavFac civilians, Civil Engineer Corps officers and Seabees around the world are on the job 24-7 building and maintaining sustainable facilities,

delivering utilities and services, and providing Navy expeditionary force capabilities wherever and whenever needed.”

With 14 major commands located in the United States, Europe and Japan, NavFacs support is visible around the globe on practically every Navy and Marine Corps installation. Nearly every pier, runway, building, gymnasium, barracks, road, utility plant and other shore facilities has been constructed or acquired by NavFac. The command’s worldwide team of planning, construction, facilities services and acquisition subject matter experts ex-

ecuted approximately 39,000 separate contract actions in fiscal year (FY) 2013 for $7.41 billion, including $2.3 billion in military construction support for the Navy, Marine Corps and other federal agencies.

NavFac has a proud history of delivering exceptional products and services for supported commands since 1842. Building on 172 years of experience, the command continues to manage the planning, design, construction, contingency engineering, real estate, environmental and public works support for U.S. naval shore facilities all over the world.

Helicopters depart NASWF after another successful ‘fly-in’

By Jay Cope NAS Whiting Field Public Affairs

When pilots and aircrew from about 20 different helicopters boarded their aircraft and departed NAS Whiting Field Oct. 31, it marked the completion of another successful fleet fly-in for Training Air Wing Five.

The annual event is one of the most anticipated events on the calendar for the installation and 2014 marked another memorable occasion. For about three days, the skies above NAS Whiting Field were peppered with gray and black aircraft amidst the orange-and-black training aircraft that continually fly above the base and its 13 outlying fields.

Helicopter Training Squadron Eight (HT-8) coordinated the function, and HT-8 Commanding Officer Cmdr. Rob Sinram was pleased with how the fly-in turned out.

“This year’s fleet fly-in was a big success,” he said.

“We got the fleet turnout we were hoping for and students got a lot of flight time and interaction with the fleet crews.”

While the Naval Helicopter Association Fleet Fly-In encompasses a variety of panel discussions on large scale aviation issues, detailer presentations on future assignments, and industry displays showcasing helicopter technologies; the thrilling part is for the TraWing-5 flight Student naval aviators and pilots of a Navy MH-60R Seahawk brief before a demonstration flight at NAS Whitstudents having an opportunity to touch, ride in and po- ing Field’s fleet fly-in.

Child Support Military Divorce Criminal Defense DUI

Military Divorce Active Duty or Retired

We are located near Corry Station and NAS Pensacola. As a result, for 30 years we have handled problems that are unique to active duty and retired military service members.

We are able to handle most issues where Florida has jurisdiction, which may include Initial Divorce proceedings, Spousal Support, Child Support, Modification, Visitation or Custody issues Contempt, Email or Teleconferencing. In cases of deployment, regarding court appearances, many occasions relevant to these issues (pursuant to the other sides agreement when necessary), you can testify by telephone and never have to physically be in Florida for the proceeding.

Set forth below are a few of the issues that you may question regarding, whether you are active

duty, retired or the spouse of active duty or retire military.

Child Support In calculating Child Support, in addition to your regular or retirement pay, the following pay is included: 1. Housing Allowance 2. Sea or Flight Pay 3. Retirement Pay 4. Social Security 5. V.A. Benefits (Yes, despite what others have told you, VA pay is included in child support calculations. Some of you will argue this point. Make an appointment and I will show you why it is included).

You will still be governed by the child support requirements under the general Divorce/Child Support for the state of Florida. FYI: Based on the child support formula, it is almost always cheaper, if possible, to use day care.

The Law Firm of Steven W. Bowden 4502 Twin Oaks Drive Pensacola, FL 32506 Phone: (850) 456-5779 E-mail: sbowdenlaw@gmail.com For more information about Steven Bowden’s areas of practice, go to http:// pensacola-lawyer.com

A major problem which can affect both the payor and recipient of child support is when the support should begin. If you are involved in the initial Divorce proceeding the payor’s obligation begins, at the minimum, when the divorce is filed and/or you no longer live together with the child/children. The separation date may predate the filing of the divorce petition. You need an attorney’s advice to ascertain your obligation. If you wait until the final hearing, you may have to pay ongoing child support plus a court ordered amount each month to satisfy an arrearage plus interest.

If you are active duty military, the JAG manual (navy page) will specify what you must pay to continue to support your family until further court order. A temporary hearing could reduce the amount of child support that you have been direct to may pay military orders or rules.

If you are the spouse of an active duty military member, reservist or retiree, see Spouse/Military or

call for an appointment regarding the questions you may have.

Retirement Alimony/Spousal Support In Florida, military retirement funds are an asset which is treated differently than other income related to Alimony/Spousal Support. The spouse of retired military personnel receives a pro rata share of the retirement funds. If the spouse remarries, the awarded share is still paid. If the military retiree dies, and an SBP is elected, it is still paid. You must make sure your lawyer uses the correct formula in order to establish the amount owed. DFAS has particular guidelines that must be met in order to accomplish the correct payment of spousal support.

gins with insulin resistance, a disorder in which the cells primarily within the muscles, liver and fat tissue do not use insulin properly. As the need for insulin rises, the beta cells in the pancreas gradually lose the ability to produce sufficient quantities of the hormone.

The risk for developing type 2 diabetes is associated with older age, obesity, family history of diabetes, history of gestational diabetes, impaired glucose metabolism, physical inactivity, and race/ethnicity. African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, American Indians, some Asians, and Native Hawaiians or other Pacific Islanders are at particularly high risk for type 2 diabetes and its complications. Type 2 diabetes in children and adolescents, although uncommon, is being diagnosed more frequently among American Indians, African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, Asians and Pacific Islanders.

Gestational diabetes is a form of glucose intolerance diagnosed during the second or third trimester of pregnancy. During pregnancy, increasing blood glucose levels increase the risk for both mother and fetus and require

This November during National Diabetes Month, ask yourself if you’re at risk of type 2 diabetes and take steps to prevent it.

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s 2014 National Diabetes Statistics Report: • 29.1 million people or 9.3 percent of the United States’ population have diabetes.

• Diagnosed: 21.0 million people.

• Undiagnosed: 8.1 million people.

(27.8 percent of people with diabetes are undiagnosed).

What is diabetes?

Diabetes is a group of diseases marked by high levels of blood glucose resulting from problems in how insulin is produced, how insulin works, or both. People with diabetes may develop serious complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, blindness and premature death.

What are the types of diabetes?

Type 1 diabetes was previously called insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or juvenile-onset diabetes. Although disease onset can occur at any age, the peak age for diagnosis is in the mid-teens. Type 1 diabetes develops when the cells that produce the hormone insulin, known as the beta cells, in the pancreas are destroyed. This destruction is initiated or mediated by the body’s immune system and limits or completely eliminates the production and secretion of insulin, the hormone that is required to lower blood glucose levels. To survive, people with type 1 diabetes must have insulin delivered by injection or a pump. In adults, type 1 diabetes accounts for approximately 5 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes. There is no known way to prevent type 1 diabetes. Several clinical trials for preventing type 1 diabetes are currently in progress with additional studies being planned.

Type 2 diabetes was previously called non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or adult-onset diabetes because the peak age of onset is usually later than type 1 diabetes. In adults, type 2 diabetes accounts for about 90 to 95 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes. Type 2 diabetes usually be-

treatment to reduce problems for the mother and infant. Treatment may include diet, regular physical activity, or insulin. Shortly after pregnancy, 5 to 10 percent of women with gestational diabetes continue to have high blood glucose levels and are diagnosed as having diabetes, usually type 2. The risk factors for gestational diabetes are similar to those for type 2 diabetes. The occurrence of gestational diabetes itself is a risk factor for developing recurrent gestational diabetes with future pregnancies and subsequent development of type 2 diabetes. Also, the children of women who had gestational diabetes during pregnancies may be at risk of developing obesity and diabetes.

Prediabetes is a condition in which individuals have high blood glucose or

hemoglobin A1C levels but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.

People with prediabetes have an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke, but not everyone with prediabetes will progress to diabetes. The CDC-led National Diabetes Prevention Program, a large prevention study of people at high risk for diabetes, showed that lifestyle intervention that resulted in weight loss and increased physical activity in this population can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes and in some cases return blood glucose levels to within the normal range. Other international studies have shown similar results.

Risk factors for type 2 diabetes You are at increased risk for developing prediabetes and type 2 diabetes if you: • Are 45 years of age or older.

• Are overweight.

• Have a family history of type 2 diabetes.

• Are physically active fewer than three times per week.

• Ever gave birth to a baby that weighed more than nine pounds.

• Ever had diabetes while pregnant (gestational diabetes).

Naval Hospital Pensacola (NHP) provides one-on-one counseling by certified diabetes educators for all enrolled beneficiaries. The hospital also provides monthly diabetes classes for all TRICARE beneficiaries. The Diabetes Home Management class is for newly diagnosed diabetics, but it is also a great refresher course for anyone. There is also a Prediabetes class that discusses ways to prevent diabetes.

For more information on the counseling or the classes, contact your Medical Home Port Team or call one of the diabetes educators at 505-7099 or 505-6367.

GCF&ES: Keep Fire Prevention Month’s lessons in mind throughout the holidays

By Craig Lewis Fire Prevention Chief Fire & Emergency Services Gulf Coast

D

uring October, Fire Prevention Month, many of you paused to reevaluate your own fire safety risks and plans. Did you remember to check or change the battery in your smoke detector when we set clocks back Nov. 2?

Working smoke alarms save lives – you should test yours not just when the time changes, but every month.

The key word in the slogan is “working” – if you don’t have a working smoke detector, it is like having no detector at all and you have put yourself and family at grave risk. We always think that a fire can’t happen to us – it is always someone else we read about.

Unfortunately, as the days grow colder, the risk for fire increases, so ensure you (A) have a smoke detector, and (B) test your smoke detector monthly.

If you live in Escambia County and do not have a smoke detector, or know someone who doesn’t, call 595-HERO (4376). This will put you in touch with

Escambia County Fire & Rescue and they will assist you in a pre-fire plan of your home and install a working smoke detector.

Some reminders as we head into holiday season: • Candles – “When You Go Out – Blow Them Out.” Never leave candles unattended.

• Cooking – Never leave your cooking unattended.

Pots should be handles in, and keep a lid handy to smother a grease fire.

• Electrical – Don’t overload circuits with holiday decorations. Check for frayed or cracked cords – don’t run them under carpets and do not use extension cords in place of permanent wiring.

• Heating equipment – furnaces,

fireplaces and wood burning stoves – have them inspected and cleaned annually prior to use. Now is the time; be proactive.

• Appliances – dryer and dryer vents and refrigerator coils should be vacuumed or cleaned every six

months or more often.

• During Thanksgiving and Christmas, use caution when deep frying those turkeys. If you have any questions, contact the fire prevention office at Fire and Emergency Services Gulf Coast at 452-2898.

Salvation Army hopes to collect $375,000 in kettles this year From Salvation Army

For more than 100 years, the residents of Pensacola have been dropping coins into The Salvation Army’s red kettles at Christmas to support needy families.

The holiday tradition begins anew Nov. 14 as bell ringers appear at stores in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. The Salvation Army’s goal this year is to raise $375,000 from the kettle campaign, the major

fund-raising drive that supports the yearround programs of the charity.

The Salvation Army works to meet human needs in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. Community donations support a wide range of services including: • Food for the hungry. • Shelter and food for homeless men and women. • Disaster response to help victims of natural or man-made disasters such as the floods which hit

The Christmas kettles date back to 1891, when a Salvation Army captain in San Francisco resolved to provide a free Christmas dinner to the area’s poor. From his days as a sailor in Liverpool, England, the captain remembered a large pot where passersby would toss donations.

The captain presented his idea to city authorities and received permission to place a similar pot by the docks. By Christmas 1895, 30 Salvation Army corps on the West Coast were using the red Christmas kettles. “The Salvation Army

Kettles will be set up in over 25 locations across Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties including Gulf Breeze,� said Capt.

they see during the holidays,� he said. “Every donation makes a difference too, in the lives of the men, women and children served by The Salvation Army in Pensacola.�

If you want to help as a red kettle volunteer, call 432-1501. To make an online donation to support local services, go to www.salvationarmypensacola.com or call (800) SalArmy (725-2769). You also can send a check to The Salvation Army, 1501 North Q St., P.O. Box 18569, Pensacola, FL 32523-8569.

Her focus is in study the relationship between people’s emotion with a ceramic object, and the Japanese aesthetic Wabi-Sabi, the beauty of nature, impermanence and imperfection. As her background is in fine art, her ceramic pieces tend to be more conceptual. Previous work involves installation, oil painting and book design.

Her most recent practice is driven by a fascination with the clay’s natural process, combined with the artist’s own influence.

She creates organic shapes which are full of attractive details, reminding people of something from nature – seed pods, nuts, flowers, sea shells.

If you are a victim of sexual assault, it is not your fault. Help for victims of sexual assault in the DoD community is a call, click or text away: The SafeHelpline provides live, one-on-one crisis support and information by trained staff. Call: (877) 995-5247; click: www.SafeHelpline.org; or text: 55-247, CONUS; (202) 470-5546, OCONUS (may be extra charges for OCONUS).

The Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) Program provides prevention, intervention and a 24/7/365 response to non-intimate partner adult victims of sexual assault. Active-duty and adult family member sexual assault victims have a choice of reporting options, unrestricted and restricted. Unrestricted reporting allows victim to have an advocate, seek medical care, counseling, legal services, safety interventions and/or transfer, etc. To access an unrestricted report, the victim may report to his/her chain-ofcommand, security/law enforcement, NCIS, SAPR VA, SARC, or others. NCIS shall be notified by the CO and/or the VA/SARC in unrestricted cases to begin investigation. Investigation results are provided to the offender’s CO for appropriate action/disposition. Restricted reporting allows a victim to have a confidential report, which does not trigger command or law enforcement notification and the victim may have a SAPR VA and seek medical care and/or counseling. To access restricted reporting, the victim may disclose his/her sexual assault only to the SARC, a current SAPR VA, a health care professional and/or a chaplain.

To contact the NASP 24/7 Victim Advocate, call 449-9231/2. For the Civilian Victim Advocate, call 293-4561. To contact the duty SARC, call the SARC cell at 554-5606.
