PENSACOLA FERRY SERVICE The long-
awaited ferry service funded by the National Park Service lost more than $300,000 during its first summer of operation according to its operator, Gulf Coast Marine Services Inc., which has opted out of running the service any longer. The two 150-passenger ferries cost $2.6 million each. The county has built a landing on Quietwater Beach, while the city of Pensacola is still building its ferry terminal building at Commendencia Slip. The National Park Service is searching for another operator.
sociation of Social Workers recently named the acting director of the Naval Air Station Whiting Field Fleet and Family Support Center its 2018 Social Worker of the Year for the state of Florida. The criteria for the Social Worker of the Year award requires that the recipient make a demonstrable difference in advocacy for clients, social policy, social work practice, program development, administration and research and demonstrates outstanding leadership. Anzaldo exceeded the criteria with her dedication to the Fleet and Family Support Center. She is a founding member for the Open Books Bookstore and Prison Books Project.
BLOODSTAINED MEN Another weird protest group made a stop in Pensacola last week—Bloodstained Men and their Friends. The protesters donned cowboy hats and allwhite outfits with blood-like red stains on the groin area and held up signs that read "Intact Genitals are a Human Right" and "Foreskin is not a birth defect" in front of Sacred Heart Hospital. The Pensacola stop was part of a 22-city tour, which included a protest at an American Academy of Pediatrics conference in Orlando. The AAP states circumcision lowers chances of contracting STDs and HIV, penile cancer and urinary tract infections.

TRUMP RALLY THEATRICS It was funny watching Republicans scamper to drum up media—both legitimate news and social varieties—moments for President Trump's mini-rally in Pensacola. Right-wingers were trying to talk immigrants into letting the president swear them in as citizens on stage. Desperate calls were made to boxing legend Roy Jones, Jr. to see if he would appear with Evander Holyfield alongside the president. Alas, Jones was unavailable.

6400 US HWY 90 outtakes
By Rick Outzen
UNITED WE STAND I received an email from a reader that was upset about last week's "Outtakes" column that called for the president to lead multi-denominational services for peace and healing in wake of the shootings at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh (Inweekly, "Rally for Peace," Nov. 1). In face of rising anti-Semitism in the country, I felt President Trump should condemn the attacks on any religion. My opinions earned me the moniker "tree hugger." Don't worry. I've been called much worse. However, the email pointed out to me how virtues once treasured by our society have fallen out of favor in politics—compassion, tolerance, honesty and statesmanship. General George Washington wasn't revered by his contemporaries for how he vanquished his enemies. He worked to unify the states, which had widely different interests, into one nation because he understood our new republic had a tenuous place on the world stage. Washington understood that the president must bring opposing views to the table and get people to work together for the common good. To disagree on an issue doesn't make people enemies. For the United States to stay united, consensus and compromise are paramount. In his farewell address, President Washington spoke about how important the unity of government was to him. He said, "…it is a main pillar in the edifice of
your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize." He urged the people to watch for the preservation of government unity "with jealous anxiety and discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned; and indignantly frowning upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now link together the various parts." Today, power has trumped compassion. Tribalism has replaced tolerance. Winning at any cost has overruled honesty. Party loyalty has sidetracked statesmanship, and reconciliation has become a liberal, "tree hugging" view. I'm writing this column on the morning of the Nov. 6 election. I have no idea whether control of the Florida governorship and Congress will change hands. However, I hope that whoever is in control of our federal, state and local governments will heed the words of President Washington. For our nation, state and community to stay great, our elected officials must work toward consensus, placing the needs of the whole above their personal political careers because I agree with Washington that the unity of our government is the key to our independence. {in} rick@inweekly.net

ST ENGINEERING FINDS A HOME
By Duwayne Escobedo When ST Engineering began looking at sites to expand its maintenance, repair and overhaul operations in Mobile, executives scoured locations across the Mississippi, central and northern Alabama and western Florida more than five years ago. Finally, it chose Pensacola. One of the main reasons? The Gulf Coast town's highly skilled aviation workforce. The 2015 decision has exceeded the expectations of the Singapore-based MRO giant. Five months after opening its first facility at Pensacola International Airport, top ST Engineering executives just signed an agreement in Singapore with local officials to invest $210 million more to expand its Pensacola Aerospace campus with three more widebody hangars and an office. It's estimated the new positions will spur another 3,400 indirect jobs, which could generate $400 million into the local economy. Like never before, educators, local and state political leaders and the community joined hands to make sure ST Engineering had a deep pool of aviation mechanics to employ. Not only can the company draw on highly trained former military personnel but the Escambia County School District did something right—it added aerospace and aviation programs. This includes high school programs at Escambia and Booker T. Washington high schools that give them a head start to high-paying aviation careers. Additionally, its George Stone Technical College created a way for locals to earn highly coveted airframe and powerplant certifications. "The attractiveness of this investment is further strengthened by the strong ecosystem and robust aerospace industry, 66
supported by a ready workforce pool in the Florida panhandle region that we can tap on," said Lim Serh Ghee, who heads Aerospace of ST Engineering. "We look forward to working as closely as ever with the mayor's office and relevant local authorities and organizations to realize this expansion plan." Initially, ST Engineering called for 400 employees to operate its $46 million, 173,500-square-foot facility that it opened in June. One of three MRO sites in the United States—Mobile and San Antonio being the other two—Pensacola has already overhauled 25 aircraft. The recently signed agreement in Singapore between the company and the Pensacola delegation promises 1,300 direct jobs to operate a 655,000-square-foot airframe facility at its Pensacola Aerospace Campus. ST Engineering will invest $35 million to the $210 million expansion project with the city, county, Triumph Gulf Coast, state and federal organizations paying the rest of the development costs. Triumph Gulf Coast, which will distribute $1.5 billion from BP for its unprecedented 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill to eight Northwest counties through 2033, will pitch in $56 million to the project when ST Engineering and the city begin construction in 2022. Bill Davis, a George Stone aviation maintenance instructor, said its program graduated its first class in December 2017, and half of the 14 who finished went to work at ST Engineering. In June, the company hired all 14 George Stone graduates for its MRO plant. Another 15 are on target to complete their qualifications this December, and there are 25 enrolled in the program scheduled to finish in June 2019, Davis reported.
"This puts a big load on us to try and get them people. It's going to be a large task, but the company keeps coming through big for us." Bill Davis "This puts a big load on us to try and get them people," Davis said. "It's going to be a large task, but the company keeps coming through big for us."
Ken Atkinson, the workforce education specialist for the Escambia school system, said it's committed to supplying the future generation of aerospace and aviation workers. "We're very receptive to (ST Engineering)," he said. Triumph Gulf Coast has approved $3 million to boost what the school district already has in place, which includes a new aviation maintenance training building at George Stone, new tools and supplies for aviation maintenance education at Washington High School, and provides for advanced Science, Technology, Engineering and Math education to elementary students and more. Meanwhile, Pensacola State College offers manufacturing certification, airframe and powerplant (A&P) certification and an airframe coatings and corrosion control certification. Its plans include developing an Avionics Technology program, a professional pilot program and associate's and bachelor's degrees associated with aviation, such as aerospace management and cybersecurity. Not to be outdone, the University of West Florida partners with the U.S. Air Force ROTC program, which has an aerospace studies degree. Also, it further supports the burgeoning aerospace industry in Northwest Florida with electronics and computer degrees. Targeted investments in aerospace and aviation clusters often lead to even more companies. Florida currently ranks No. 2 in the nation for aerospace and aviation organizations and added more than any other state in the Southeast in 2017.
"We are very high on aerospace jobs. These are high paying jobs that our people can do and make a decent living." Don Gaetz "We are very high on aerospace jobs," said Don Gaetz, the Triumph board chairman and former Senate president. "These are high paying jobs that our people can do and make a decent living." Besides all the education and training programs, Florida military personnel attract top aerospace and aviation companies, such as ST Engineering, looking for their skills and experience. Florida is a big player in defense, with more than 20 major military installations. Meanwhile, Northwest Florida has a long tradition of supporting military aviation with Naval Air Station Pensacola first training military aviators more than 100 years ago to earn the nickname "The Cradle of Aviation," Additionally, the surrounding area includes Whiting Field, Hurlburt Field, Eglin Air Force Base and Tyndall Air Force Base. The Pensacola delegation all expressed
enthusiasm in solidifying the city's partnership with the major Singapore company. Its airframe MRO division increased revenue by 19 percent in 2017 to $1.74 billion. Its Pensacola Aerospace Campus, which is located just 65 miles east from the Brookley Aeroplex where it started in 1991, is projected to increase further those profits servicing commercial airlines and airfreight operators once it grows more than five times its current size. The expansion is seen by many to strengthen the aerospace network in the region further. "It is about that growth and where we've come in the last six years and the growth of ST Engineering," said Pensacola Mayor Ashton Hayward. "There's not one person that gets you over the finish line; it's about collaboration." "What an awesome deal," Bergosh added. "I'm very bullish on ST Engineering." Luth said, "They are global leaders, and it's very significant to have a partner like that. This is a giant step forward for everybody." ST Engineering Aerospace President and CEO Vincent Chong said the memorandum of understanding benefits both the company and city. "With today's milestone, our growth in the city of Pensacola will be advanced even further," Chong said. Hayward agreed. "The incredible partnership between the City of Pensacola and ST Engineering has brought forth a monumental opportunity to expand the I-10 aviation corridor and ignite transformational change to the region with economic impacts to be seen for generations to come," he said. The collaboration between Pensacola and ST Engineering to establish one of the largest MRO facilities in the world has received recognition throughout Florida. One Enterprise Florida official said the effort is a model for other communities and companies to follow.
"It's a good example of training programs supplying (ST Engineering's) growing workforce. There are tremendous opportunities like that all over Florida to find employees and train them." Katie Hogan "It's a good example of training programs supplying (ST Engineering's) growing workforce," said Katie Hogan, Enterprise Florida's manager of aviation/aerospace and defense. "There are tremendous opportunities like that all over Florida to find employees and train them." {in} inweekly.net

NAVY FEDERAL MAKES AN OFFER By Duwayne Escobedo The county has embarked on creating a vision for the economic development of 636 acres called Outlying Field 8 by the U.S. Navy. Navy Federal Credit Union has offered its assistance by offering to work with the county in creating a master plan for the large site. Additionally, the bank offered to buy 100 acres adjacent to its Heritage Oaks campus in Beulah at fair market value and create another 300 jobs on top of the 10,000 it already promises to hire. Navy Federal spokesman Bill Pearson said it's the first time the company has made such an offer to work with local government. "We've not approached something quite this magnitude," Pearson said. "It's unique to have open land like this." He pointed out that the credit union's campuses in Vienna and Winchester, Va., lack undeveloped land like OLF 8. Escambia County Commission Chairman Jeff Bergosh lives near Navy Federal and said he has banked there since 1981. He said he is open to the company's unprece-
dented assistance to developing the former U.S. Navy property. "(Navy Federal) is such a huge juggernaut in our community," he said. Debbie Calder, executive vice president of Greater Pensacola Operations at Navy Federal, sent a letter to each of the commissioners on Oct. 23 about Navy Federal's intentions, which include working with the Beulah community and county officials. Calder wrote that the adjacent 100 acres would allow the company to expand parking, build a recreation area, create a buffer zone and add 300 jobs. Today, it employs about 7,000 people, allowing the credit union to make a $5.2 billion annual impact on the Pensacola community. "To ensure our continued growth, we must be proactive and do our part to help Beulah and Escambia County develop in a manner that benefits those who live and work here," Calder wrote. Bergosh said as long as Navy Federal produces more jobs, he supports selling it the 100 acres. The Restore Act Committee ranks the site as the county's No. 1 economic development project. The county plans to close in December on the $17.3 million OLF 8 property.
"If (Navy Federal) just wanted to buy it for a buffer zone, I would fight vigorously against it," Bergosh said. The Restore Act—created in the aftermath of the devastating 2010 oil spill by BP— set aside part of the $70 million it will provide Escambia County over the next 12 years. It includes funding a master plan governing the development of the site. Calder wrote that Navy Federal would pay for the projected $1.5 million to $2 million cost of creating an OLF 8 master plan. . She said the company would work closely with residents and the county. "(We) share a vision for an OLF 8 development that not only creates new, high-paying jobs but complements a growing community where people want to live, work and play," Calder told commissioners. Using Navy Federal would enable the county to direct Restore Act funds earmarked for OLF 8 to other priorities, Calder said. She added, "We believe a mutually-agreeable plan as described here will also signal that Escambia County is willing to work together with the Beulah community to create good jobs and attract the amenities needed to support comprehensive economic development for generations to come."
Bergosh has no doubt OLF 8 will turn into a success. He pointed out that the county has experienced excellent results with previous economic development projects. For example, Escambia County sold out Heritage Oaks in Beulah; has one small lot left in Marcus Pointe; Ellyson Field boasts 123 companies that employ 3,600 people; the Central Commerce Park Phase 1 has one three-acre parcel remaining; and the nine-acre Tech Park plans to soon build a high-tech center for cybersecurity, advanced manufacturing and robotics in partnership with the University of West Florida. He envisions new high-tech and advanced manufacturing companies being attracted to OLF 8 with Nine Mile Road becoming four lanes next year, a new interchange going in at Beulah Road and Mobile Highway at Beulah Road installing a traffic light, among other planned improvements. "Building a new, clean-tech center at OLF 8 would be an additional win for the area," Bergosh said. "Let's plan intelligently so everyone can get something from this land. But most importantly, let's support a 'jobs per acre' plan to create diversified employment opportunities going forward." {in}

TRUMP CARAVAN POPS IN President
Donald Trump made a 25-minute campaign stop at the Pensacola International Airport on Saturday night, three days before the Nov. 6 election. As with his previous visits, the area outside the venue, which this time was the ST Engineering Aerospace hangar, took on a carnival atmosphere. The crowd began arriving early in the day, filling a makeshift parking lot set up on fields along Langley Avenue across from the airport. They formed a long, snaking line past vendor tables and food trucks, countless red MAGA hats bobbing upon the surface of the crowd as they waited for one of the looping school buses to shuttle them to the rally. Several of the Trump fans weren't from the Pensacola area. Set up in a prime location on the corner near the shuttle stop, Bob Kunst enjoyed what he said was his 126th Trump rally. The Miami man wore a Star of David pendant around his neck and a Hillary Clinton mask. He's following the Trump train along its stump tour. "Yeah, tomorrow I go to Macon," Kunst said, pushing the Hillary mask up on top of his head. Though he identifies himself as a registered Democrat (or "Demo-rat") and gay activist, Kunst said he is on board with many of Trump's initiatives. He particularly appreciates how the president relocated the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and also how he ditched the Iran nuclear deal, which he described as "disgusting." "Don't forget about Hillary!" Kunst slid the mask back over his face and waved a Hillary for Prison sign at passersby. At a vending table, Keisha Jenkins offered an array of Trump fare as well an assortment of conservative-themed options, such as a T-shirt featuring an uzi-packing, somehowstill-adorable panda with the phrase "Right to Bear Arms." Jenkins is from Michigan and made the trip to Pensacola to help her brother vend Trump gear. Her brother follows the campaign trail. The pair is traveling a bit lighter after unload-
ing a bunch of merchandise during an Indiana event. She declined to discuss politics. "I wanted to see what it was like," Jenkins said, looking around at the people filling the parking area. "This here is off the hook." Waiting in line, William Biggs wore a large Trump flag as a cape, affixed to his neck with a button that read, "Deplorable Lives Matter." He couldn't be happier with the president's performance thus far. "I think he has flipped the table over on corruption in Washington," Biggs said. Once folks made their way through the shuttle line and were transported to the hanger for the rally, volunteers supplied them with signs—Finish the Wall, Jobs Not Mobs, Drain the Swamp—and they began listening to a soundtrack alternating between newscast replays of Trump's 2016 election night surprise and a heavy rotation of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Freebird." Waiting for the rally to begin, attendee Jeff Lloyd took a moment to discuss his assessment of Trump. A veteran of the oil and gas industry, he's happy about the president cutting regulations and also appreciates his hard stance on immigration issues. While Trump may be rough around the edges, he said, he's preferable to his predecessor. "Obama was a great orator, a nice guy, but he's full of shit," Lloyd said. "Trump, he could tone it down a bit, but it doesn't bother me." Lloyd is from Houston. He missed a recent Houston rally and decided to attend the Pensacola engagement because he was already in the area. He sees parallels between Florida's races and the senatorial race in Texas pitting Republican Sen. Ted Cruz against Democrat Beto O'Rourke. "They're of the same ilk," he said, comparing O'Rourke with Tallahassee mayor and Florida Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum. "Where'd you get that shirt?" a man asked Lloyd, laughing approvingly at the message. Lloyd's T-shirt featured a variation of the traditional Calvin-pees-on-target-ofderision cartoon, with Trump urinating on the CNN logo.
"Everything is presented through a prism of hating Trump," Lloyd said. "I go on there just to laugh at how outside the mainstream of America they really are."
BRUCE BEACH OPENED The City of
Pensacola held a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Bruce Beach on Saturday, Nov. 3, to mark the opening of downtown Pensacola's only beach on Pensacola Bay. Mayor Ashton Hayward hosted the event, which included remarks from Dr. Marion Williams, a local African-American historian. Up until last June, Bruce Beach was to be the site of a proposed fish hatchery run by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The hatchery had been in the works for seven years until two residents, Dan Lindemann and Jerry Holzworth, challenged the process and how the city staff missed a critical deadline to begin construction. In August, after FWC canceled the project, Mayor Hayward directed staff to begin the process of creating public access to Bruce Beach. City crews cleared the site and removed the overgrowth. The administration worked with several groups to make sure the environment and history of the site are protected. City staff also met with the Native Plant Society to assess the site vegetation. University of West Florida's Archaeology Institute also surveyed the site to identify any history needing to be preserved. The UWF Historic Trust had paid for markers to commemorate the history of Bruce Beach, its significance to the African-American community and the Tanyard neighborhood. "I am extremely proud of my team and the work they have done to complete this project," Mayor Hayward said. "This is just a start to get Bruce Beach activated, and I look forward to the future to how we develop Bruce Beach because it will be a great asset for the citizens of Pensacola."
LETF DOLLARS DISBURSED The
Board of County Commissioners last week approved Sheriff David Morgan's recommendations to distribute of $30,800 to local
nonprofit organizations from State Law Enforcement Trust Fund. The sheriff's office will be the presenting sponsor for the Pace Center for Girls' annual Believing in Girls Society Event, contributing $20,000. The ESCO will also be a sponsor of the Fellowship of Christian Athlete's Joe Durant Golf Tournament. For $800, the agency gets a four-person team in the tournament and can send two representatives to any of the seven FCA sports banquets held in the county. Funds will be used to purchase transmitters, batteries and wristbands and underwrite other costs of Covenant Alzheimer's Services' Project Lifesaver program, which provides tracking devices to individuals who have Alzheimer's and Dementia, contribution $5,000. The Epps Christian Center will receive $2,500 to help put on its annual Thanksgiving dinner, and Waterfront Rescue Mission will receive $2,500 for its Recovery and Career Development program. The mission had requested $15,000.
CHEAPER ELECTRICITY The Florida
Public Service Commission approved Gulf Power Company passing on to its customers additional savings from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. What Gulf Power would have paid in corporate income taxes will instead be used to reduce rates. "We want customers to benefit from the federal tax reductions, and we will continue to find ways the law can help lower electric bills," said PSC Chairman Art Graham. As a result, Gulf's base rates will be reduced by $9.6 million, allowing residential customers to see a monthly bill reduction of $1.11 per 1,000 kWh in January 2019. In addition, Gulf Power proposed to reduce its 2019 fuel cost recovery amount by $9.9 million. The proposal will be considered at the PSC's annual cost recovery clause hearing in November. "We're so pleased to be able to pass these additional savings along to our customers," said Stan Connally, Gulf Power chairman, president and CEO. "The bottom line for the average customer is savings of about $32 per year that will begin in January.

"We are deploying new technology and infrastructure that will offer our customers the choice of gigabit speeds in all markets we serve." Cox has been deploying gigabit speeds to businesses for more than a decade, and the company will offer residential gigabit speeds to all customers in all of its markets by the end of 2019.
THE DEVIL WE KNOW The Levin Papantonio law firm with the help of Edward Jones, John L. Peacock, Jr. CFP, CRPC, Financial Advisor, and Inweekly will host a screening event of "The Devil We Know" Monday, Nov. 12 at the
Rex Theatre, 18 N. Palafox. The doors open at 7 p.m. and seating is limited to 300 so please come early. "The Devil We Know" is a documentary that shows how citizens in West Virginia take on the powerful chemical corporation, DuPont, after they discover it has knowingly been dumping a toxic chemical into the local drinking water supply. Attorney Mike Papantonio and his Levin Papantonio legal team helped secure a $670.7 million cash settlement over lawsuits related to the exposure of a toxic chemical from the company's plant in West Virginia. The documentary has earned accolades from at least a dozen film festivals across the globe for chronicling one of the biggest environmental scandals of our time. Both the Sundance and Sun Valley film festivals lauded the film as one of the top documentaries released this year.
BEYOND CLI-FI Join 350 Pensacola and University of West Florida English professor Dr. Kelly Bushnell as they go beyond the science to explore climate change through the literary arts. The meeting is 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 14, at Pensacola Public Library, 239 N. Spring St. Dr. Bushnell explores how the literary arts are grappling with the climate future of our

CUBED SPOTLIGHT: AF
By Savannah Evanoff
project called "Parts" and will release the first part as a four-song EP in March. It's called "Parts" because it's a compilation of "spare songs" AF has collaborated on with other artists, along with instrumentals. "The music is an extension of my personality—very mellow, laidback, very layered and complex," AF said. "It would probably come off as basic until you paid attention to it. The music is very texturalized. It's open to any interpretation." On this EP, he collaborated with two Taiwanese rappers, ILL MO and Formo Sir. He connected with them after creating a remix for Juzzy Orange, a Taiwan rap group. "They're influenced by a lot of American hip-hop, and generally more old-school '90s boom box hip-hop," AF said. "It's kind of their interpretation of West Coast '90s hip-hop. I'm originally from Los Angeles, so my influence and their influence are not quite the same but very familiar. It's pretty cool." The EP also features a song with a Baton Rouge rapper and an instrumental. AF looks forward to bringing his music to CUBED Luminous and experiencing the event. "I know there are festivals like this, but I haven't witnessed any," AF said. "To know it's going on in Pensacola is pretty amazing." In the spirit of CUBED Luminous, we asked AF about his first experience with his own version of digital art—electronic music.
"It was raining a little bit too much one summer, Louisiana sub-tropics. I just had all this nervous energy, and I needed to do something." AF
AF / Photo by Vashni Balleste AF isn't a problem you can solve. The electronic musician who's performing during CUBED Luminous—a digital art festival happening this weekend as part of Foo Foo Fest—has been a walking mystery since childhood. "My facial expressions sometimes don't match how I feel, so people will try to figure me out," Amahl AbdulKhaliq, aka AF, told Inweekly. "When I was younger, I didn't talk as much, so someone said, 'You're like an enigma. I don't know what's going on in there.'" That person's interpretation of AF is what sparked his musical moniker—AF—meaning "Abstruse Function." "I thought about that term 'enigma'— it's like they're trying to solve me like a
problem, but I'm human," AF said. "The problem's always evolving, so I'm organic, or abstruse. I was thinking of a function, like a mathematical problem. So I'm a problem that's always evolving, so the answer's always changing because, hopefully, I'm growing and becoming better." He used to go by AF THE NAYSAYER, recently dropping the last part in June. But even standing on its own, "AF" still doesn't mean "as fuck." "It was before that was an acronym," AF said. But don't worry. He's chill "af" about the confusion. "I'm like, 'Hey, if you can remember the name, that's great.'" AF is currently working on a three-part
"I thought about that term 'enigma'—it's like they're trying to solve me like a problem, but I'm human. The problem's always evolving, so I'm organic, or abstruse." AF

"It was raining a little bit too much one summer, Louisiana sub-tropics," AF said. "I just had all this nervous energy, and I needed to do something." AF's friend sent him a video of a man programming beats on a drum machine. Seeing someone make music clicked inside AF's mind. "I remember finding the guy's AOL instant messenger screen name and messaging him, asking him all kinds of questions," AF said. AF couldn't afford a drum machine, so the man recommended he try FL Studio (formerly FruityLoops) software. That's when it started. Music isn't AF's only passion. He's a longtime lover of flatland BMX and recently became interested in road racing. He's been able to have those passions intersect a few times in his career. His videos have been featured in many BMX videos and once in a Red Bull-endorsed video, AF said. "Originally, I was making music that I would like to ride to," AF said. "I wouldn't mind listening to my own music and riding to it and for other people to do the same, too. They go hand in hand." "I've had my music played on national
TV two times because of BMX. To me, BMX and music are very much a part of me." AF also teaches music. He is the lead instructor at Upbeat Academy, a nonprofit in New Orleans. "I teach beat making to at-risk kids," AF said. "It's really cool to see students graduate from the program and work on their music careers. It gives me purpose." He has been "super blessed" to find some students interested in his career. One of his former students is studying sound engineering at Savannah College of Art and Design. "Not everyone's super interested in music production," AF said. "It's very nerdy at the end of the day, very technical." AF's own music career goals are to play more festivals, larger events and tour more internationally, he said.
"I have a reputation of being a very DIY artist, but I'm trying to transition. I'm trying to take my music to the next level."

DIFFERENCE MAKERS ZARZAUR RECEIVES AWARD FOR PRO BONO WORK Joe Zarzaur, a Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer and founder of Zarzaur Law, P.A., was presented with a Certificate of Commendation for Northwest Florida Legal Services, Inc., during its October meeting, for his Pro Bono work for the program during 2018. “Legal Graffiti,” one of the programs led by Zarzaur, is an event hosted at Zarzaur Law during each Gallery Night in downtown Pensacola. “Legal Graffiti” is an opportunity for anyone to make a donation and then create artwork on the recycled billboard vinyl covered side of the Zarzaur Law office building using spray paint. The event raises money for non-profits & charities within the area. Donations are matched by the firm and given to the charity of choice, including Northwest Florida Legal Services, Inc. Mr. Zarzaur also accepted a pro bono case from Northwest Florida Legal Services, Inc. for a client who suffered from physical disabilities. The client was traveling the street in his neighborhood in his electric wheelchair when he was struck by a truck. His wheelchair was destroyed and he was injured. Mr. Zarzaur took his case and was able to represent the client and help him get the compensation he deserved in a timely manner. “The client received a new wheelchair and was compensated for medical damages and was able to resume his life.” Doug White, Executive Director of Northwest Florida Legal Services. “Mr. Zarzaur helped the client regain his mobility and independence.”

news of the weird
WHAT WOULD YOUR MOTHER THINK? In what can only be described as a "shaking my head" incident, an unnamed employee of the U.S. Geological Survey invited malware into the government agency's computer system by visiting more than 9,000 porn websites on his work computer, according to an inspector general's report. The Washington Post reported on Oct. 30 that many of the websites were Russian, and the malware spread to the entire network at the USGS. The employee also saved images from the sites on a USB drive and personal cellphone, which also contained malware. The Office of the Inspector General made recommendations to the USGS about preventing future malware infections, and a spokesperson for the IG's office said the employee no longer works at USGS. WHO'S CRYING NOW? After the package bomb scares in New York and Florida, things were tense in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the early morning hours of Oct. 30 when mailroom employees at Duke Energy discovered a suspicious incoming package. They welcomed the CharlotteMecklenburg police and the bomb squad with "Open Arms," and the building and surrounding roads were evacuated as officials investigated. But WBTV "Faithfully" reported that the small, hand-addressed manila envelope was "Worlds Apart" from a mail bomb: It merely contained a cassette
tape with songs from the band Journey. To which we say, "Don't Stop Believin'" in your fellow '80s music-loving humans. LATEST RELIGIOUS MESSAGES If "Pokemon Go" has overextended your short attention span, up your game with the Vatican's "Follow JC Go," a new augmented reality mobile game in which players collect saints and other notable Bible figures as they move through the world. Pope Francis has approved the game, which asks players to answer questions about the characters and donate to charities to earn game currency. The Italian newspaper Corriere Della Sera reported on Oct. 21 that the app is available only in Spanish, but other languages are on the way. BRIGHT IDEAS Two mothers are suing the Adventure Learning Center day care in St. Louis over an incident in December 2016 when teachers organized a "fight club" among preschoolers. According to Fox 2 in St. Louis, the idea was conceived as a way to entertain the kids while the heater was broken. The 10-year-old sibling of one of the preschoolers was in the room next door and captured video of the fights with an iPad, then texted the video to his mom, Nicole Merseal, who believes the fight was broken up only because she called the director of the center. The video shows one teacher jumping up and down in excitement as another one puts "Incredible Hulk" fists on the kids, and cameras at the center recorded more than 30 minutes of fighting. While the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's Office declined to prosecute, the teachers were fired and the center has been subject to increased inspections, resulting in 26 violations. The lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial in December. EWWWWW Construction workers in Valdosta, Georgia, were rattled on Oct. 30 when they tore down a second-story wall in a turn-of-the-20th-century building to find about 1,000 human teeth secreted inside. The T.B. Converse Building, constructed in 1900, was originally home to a dentist, Dr. Clarence Whittington, reported the Valdosta Daily Times. In 1911, Whittington was joined by Dr. Lester G. Youmans. Ellen Hill, director of Valdosta Main Street, said two other Georgia towns have had buildings, also home to dentists' offices, where teeth have been found in the walls. "I'm not sure if it was a common practice" to deposit extracted teeth in the walls, she said. Valdosta police said there was no evidence of a crime. {in}

THE NEW 76ERS
FINAL RESTING PLACE For some folks, Disneyland and Walt Disney World are more than amusement parks. Take Jodie Jackson Wells of Boca Raton, Florida. In 2009, after her mother died, Wells smuggled in some of her ashes to Disney World and spread them on a favorite spot of her mom's along the It's a Small World ride. Later, she leapt over a barricade at Cinderella's Castle and flung ashes from both hands as she cavorted on the lawn. "Anyone who knew my mom knew Disney was her happy place," Wells told The Wall Street Journal. However, for the theme parks, the spreading of ashes presents a constant cleanup challenge, referred to by the code "HEPA cleanup" among custodians. (Other secret signals are Code V for vomit and Code U for urine.) Alex Parone of Saratoga Springs, New York, sprinkled his mother's ashes in a flowerbed, then boarded It's a Small World. "I was still crying. That song is playing over and over again, and there are those happy little animatronic things. I remember thinking, 'This is weird.'" But a Disney spokesperson said: "This type of behavior is strictly prohibited and unlawful," and the Anaheim Police Department confirmed that spreading ashes without permission is a misdemeanor. To add insult to injury, when cremation residue is found on rides, they have to be shut down (riders are told there are "technical difficulties") for cleaning.
