FROM THE HOMEFRONT
An enlightening return to Pensacola
By Sarah Smiley
Special Contributor
T his week, I returned to
Pensacola for the release of my
new book, I'm Just Saying.
Our family recently moved from
Pensacola, after living there for five
years (unusual for a military family).
My return was an enlightening expe-
rience in many ways.
The first event on my schedule
was meeting with about 50 student-
pilot wives at NAS Whiting Field in
Milton, Fla. Most of them were about
25 years old and currently enduring
the strange phenomenon known as
Navy flight school.
I told them that this is the time
when your student-pilot husband has
little control over his life: he doesn't
know his schedule for the next day
until midnight; and he calls a dispro-
portionately large number of people
"Sir."
He is also likely to be obsessed with
his health, because flight surgeons,
the medical gatekeepers of military
aviation, have the power to change
the career path of many aspiring
pilots. Mix that with a demanding
curriculum and flight training in air-
craft that costs millions of dollars -
and flight school can get overwhelm-
ing.
In hindsight, flight school is
a breeze for the wives, because as
soon as your husband receives his
wings, the military sends him to a
new job (not in his control) and then
the real "fun" (deployments) begins.
Getting through flight school is a lot
like being pregnant it feels uncom-
HEY, MONEYMAN!
HeyMoneyman!
I have heard that there are different kinds of
debt.
What is the difference between good and bad
debt?
I thought all debt was bad.
MoneyMan Sez:
When people think of debt, they usually think
about their credit cards. According to The Motley
Fool, the average American family carries $8,562
in credit card debt at an average of 18.9 percent
(annual percentage rate) interest.
If the family only pays the minimum payment
each month they will never finish paying it. If
they pay $150 a month it will take the family 93
years and seven months to pay the original debt
and they will have paid $57,770 in interest over
that time. I consider that very bad debt.
Examples of good debt are student loans and
mortgages. The idea of student loans is that your
income should increase after you have a degree,
which will offset any interest that you may pay.
The student loan interest is also tax deduct-
ible. Another big tax deduction is mortgage inter-
est. Homes will usually appreciate more than the
interest that you pay on the home loan. Homes
rarely loose value so your equity will always be
there.
The simple rule is to never have a balance on
your credit card and to save for emergencies, so
you don't have to revert to using high-interest
credit cards when something bad happens.
fortable and tiresome, until the baby
actually arrives and you realize that
you won't sleep again for the next 18
years.
I spoke to the student-pilot wives
at the base auditorium, which, coin-
cidentally, is where my husband,
Dustin, received his wings in 1999.
Only I remembered the stage being
higher and the room darker. I told the
audience that it was like going back
to your elementary school and real-
izing that the chalkboard, contrary
to your memory, was actually very
small and low to the ground. Could
time (even a relatively short period
of time) really have changed my per-
spective that much? Apparently not.
After going on and on about my
skewed memory of the auditorium, I
found out later that the building had,
in fact, been renovated since 1999.
What hadn't changed, however, were
the wives. Young, slender and tanned,
with long hair and hip clothes, they
were a mirage-like image of myself at
22-years old. I would bet money that
they didn't have a single diaper or
binkie in their miniature purses.
The next night was my publisher's
release party in downtown Pensacola
that attracted an odd mix of people
from all different aspects of my life.
I actually overheard a conversation
that went something like this:
"Susan! Is that you? I haven't seen
you in ages."
"Wow, how are you?"
(Both together, with twisted, curi-
ous faces) "So how do you know
Sarah?"
"I'm on page 65 of her book. How
about you?"
"Our dog, which used to be Sarah's
dog, ate a metal sign in the second
chapter."
At one point that evening, I was
standing in a small section of the
room with my children's pediatrician,
my pastor, my drinking buddy, my
one-time therapist, my old dog's new
owner, my son's preschool teacher,
and my husband's roommate from
his first deployment. What do you
say to a group such as this? I chose,
"My dress is so darn tight, when I sat
down a minute ago, I busted open the
zipper."
Everyone politely looked away and
pretended not to hear my nervous,
untimely comment.
Then one friend said to another:
"So, are you in the book?"
"Several times, actually. I'm a page
65, 82 and 101."
"You the one who gave her the
Friendship Bread?"
"Nope."
"Tried to run her over with a trac-
tor?"
"Um, no."
"Broadway show-tunes-guy?"
"Yep, I know them all."
"I should have known. I should
have known."
It then occurred to me that what I
had failed to tell the young spouses
the night before. That probably the
most interesting aspect of military
life is that it allows you to acquire
a delightfully eclectic set of friends,
which is an education all its own.
Just don't put them all in the same
room together.
A call to arms from your USO
By Bob Ross
Greater Jacksonville Area USO
The Greater Jacksonville Area USO is in danger of closing its
doors by December 2008 due to severe cuts in our corporate
funding and dwindling donations. To turn this around, we
appeal for your help as a USO volunteer and donor.
We also need your help to dispel the following misconceptions
about your USO:
"I already give to the USO." That may be true, however, your
Greater Jacksonville Area USO is an "independent affiliate" which
means that we do not receive any financial assistance from World
USO Headquarters. That's why we ask that you directly donate to
the Greater Jacksonville Area USO via local donations or through
CFC #97347 on your payroll deduction. Donations are tax deductible,
and no donation is too small.
"I thought the USO was funded by the U.S. Government." No,
the Greater Jacksonville Area USO is not supported by or paid by the
U.S. Government. We are strictly a non-profit agency that depends
100 percent on donations from local businesses and individuals.
"How can I donate to the USO?" Select one of three easy ways.
(1) Go to www.jaxuso.org and donate via PayPal. (2) Walk into
any of our three offices and make your check payable to "Greater
Jacksonville Area USO" for any amount. (3) Mail your donation to
Greater Jacksonville Area USO, 2560 Mayport Rd., Atlantic Beach,
FL 32233.
"How can I donate to the troops?" There is no other agency or
department on any military installation that can accept a donation
from the public and give it to the troops. Only the USO can accept
financial or "in kind" donations.
"Does the USO have a "free mailing" arrangement with the U.S.
Postal Service?" No, we must pay for all postage in order to ship
items overseas to our troops.
Jacksonville is a major player in national defense. We simply must
have your financial support to avoid closing of any of our area USOs.
Remember, there are only four USOs in Florida, and three are right
here in northeast Florida. Please spread the word regarding our
"Help on the Home Front" fundraising campaign.

CHAPLAIN'S CORNER
Accepting responsibility
B mCommand Chaplain
(Cmdr.) Gerald Felder
NAS Jax Chapel
While growing up in Birmingham,
Ala., I remember a very popu-
lar television comedy called "The
Flip Wilson Show."
The star portrayed many
characters one of whom was
a woman named "Geraldine."
Geraldine would always blame
others for what she did wrong,
specifically declaring, "The devil
made me do it!"
Too often we try to blame
others for our wrongs because
we are too afraid of accepting
responsibility for our actions.
Where does this come from?
Why must we run away from it? Comman
I think society has taught (Cmdr.) G
us to "look out for self when in reali-
ty most don't know who they are. I like
what James, the brother of Jesus, said in
his epistle Chapter 1 Verse 24: "For he
beholdeth himself in the mirror, and goeth
away, and straight way forget what man-
ner of man he was." We look, but some-
times are afraid of what we see and don't
want to accept who we are.
There is a poem written by an unknown
author that speaks a little closer to this
man in the mirror:
As you go through life in your struggle
for self
And the world makes you king for a day,
Just go to the mirror and look at your-
self,
See what that man has to say.
For it isn't your mother, brother, sister,
or wife,
Whose judgment upon you must pass.
The person whose verdict counts most in
your life
Is the one staring back in the glass.
o Some people may call you a
straight shooting chum,
Or call you a wonderful
d Chaplain
erald Felder
But the man in the glass
says you're only a bum
Cause you can't look him
straight in the eye.
He's the fellow to please.
Never mind all the rest,
For he's with you clear up
to the end.
You've past your most dan-
gerous and difficult test,
If the man in the glass is
your friend.
The most effective way of accepting
responsibility is to own up to who you are.
I realize this is easier said than done; nev-
ertheless we must begin somewhere, so
let's begin with ourselves.
Religion generally tries to get one in
touch with oneself by getting in touch with
God. God wants us to be united and work-
ing for a common goal. We can always
blame others, we can always hide from who
we are by lying to ourselves but responsi-
bility starts with each of us.
Don't run from your responsibility what-
ever it may be. As President Abraham
Lincoln told his generals, "You can't escape
the responsibility of tomorrow by evading
today."

Fay plays havoc with marina
By Clark Pierce
Editor
ropical Storm Fay slow moving
and full of rain stayed over the
First Coast longer than predicted,
causing widespread flooding. It also top-
pled trees and brought down power lines
with its relentless 45-mile-per-hour-plus
winds.
As Fay moved away on Saturday, boat
owners arrived at still-windy Mulberry
Cove to assess the damage. Catamaran
owner Fred Groenert said, "This is not as
bad as when Frances and Charlie came
through, but the south-to-southeast wind
from Fay played havoc with the cove. I
counted 10 sailboats that slipped their
mooring cables and drifted into the wet-
lands. One ended up against the west end
of the Buckman Bridge."
Commander, Destroyer Squadron 14,
Capt. Glenn Zeiders fought a losing battle
to protect his Catalina 36 sailboat from the
storm. The wind drove his boat aground
just three feet away from the timber of
the Mulberry Cove Nature Walk. Zeiders
said, "I was relatively fortunate. Most of
the damage appears minor and can be
repaired. I'll have to wait to inspect the
keel and rudder. I draw six feet of water
and right now I'm stuck in the mud with
just four feet. At high tide, I hope to have
it towed back into deeper water."

Don't let debt drag you down
Talk with
financial .
counselors
who understand
military life .
By Clark Pierce 4
Editor "
Are you living pay-
check-to-paycheck
without a monthly
spending plan? Were you
blind-sided by a big auto
repair bill? Are bounced
checks, over-draft charges
and late fees putting your
finances in a downward
spiral?
The solution for many
service members is to talk
about their situation to a
confidential financial coun-
selor at the Navy-Marine
Corps Relief Society
(NMCRS).
"Every month at NAS Jax,
we provide about $120,000
of interest-free loan assis-
tance at an average of $942
per loan. When clients come
in and describe their need,
we provide assistance 93
percent of the time," said
Jill Mordhorst, chairman of
publicity for NMCRS.
Since 1904, the Society
has provided financial, edu-
cation and other assistance
to active duty and retired
Sailors and Marines, as
well as their eligible fam-
ily members. It is a private,
non-profit charitable orga-
nization staffed by thou-
sands of knowledgeable vol-
unteers and a small cadre
of paid employees.
Mordhorst has put in 15
years as a Navy spouse
(her husband flies with
the "Dusty Dogs" of HS-7).
"Over the years, I've con-
tributed about 2,300 hours
to the society serving as
a receptionist, case work-
er and chairman of volun-
teers," said Mordhorst.
"Our family recently came
aboard for our third tour at
NAS Jax. This time, I vol-
unteered to serve as chair-
man of publicity to ensure
we keep the visibility of
NMCRS at a high level. We
must always remind peo-
ple that we understand the
unique conditions of mili-
tary life and provide a
wide range of effective ser-
vices."
Lisa Martinez is the
spouse of a P-3 Orion pilot
at VP-45. "Along with
Jennifer Flagge, I serve
as co-chairman of volun-
teers. We're responsible
for recruiting and retain-
ing volunteers which is
a continuous challenge
when you consider change
of duty stations and other
factors of military life," said
Martinez.
"In addition to active duty
spouses, we recruit military
retirees and concerned peo-
ple from our civilian com-
munity."
In 2008, NMCRS intro-
duced its interest-free
"Quick Assist Loan" for
active duty personnel who
need up to $300 for unan-
ticipated expenses such
as vehicle repair or family
emergencies.
"All the service member
has to bring with them is a
current Leave and Earnings
Statement, plus other
documentation to support
the request, such as a car
repair estimate or emer-
gency leave papers. We can

tal atmosphere that encour-

vice members in need. We

provide visiting nurses for
home healthcare that helps
patients transition and

He added, "Our Visiting
Nurse Program expanded
its scope to provide home
visits to new mothers, geri-
atric patients, patients
undergoing post-operative
recuperation and patients
with chronic medical condi-
tions."
All Navy and Marine
Corps members, active
duty or retired, their fam-
ily members, and their
survivors, within a 25-mile
radius of the program site
may be eligible for Visiting
Nurse services.
Mordhorst stressed the
importance of workshops
for family groups. "One
of the most popular is our
Budget for Baby workshop.
This 212-hour presentation
is conducted regularly for
Navy and Marine families
who are expecting a baby -
or who have recently deliv-
ered. Its purpose is to make
service families aware of
the increased living expens-
es that come with a new
baby, and to discuss effec-
tive ways of making adjust-
ments to their spending
and saving habits," said
Mordhorst.
Each family that com-
pletes the workshop
receives a free layette called
"Baby's First Seabag" that
is filled with basic infant
items, including a cuddly,
hand-crafted baby blanket.

Finding answers to financial challenges
By MC1 Monica Nelson

T( want to start drifting,"
She said of the popular
motorsport where driv-
ers intentionally spin and skid
their rear tires through turns.
"I want to get the parts. They're
expensive. But my wife asks me,
'Is this something you need? Or
something you want?'"
Those two questions changed
Jorell and Andreia's life together.
Their story began in the spring
of 2007, when they departed NAS
Pensacola, where Jorell had just
finished "A" school. Together with
their three dogs and Jorell's new
orders, the couple drove to NAS
Jacksonville in a Budget rental
truck.
They arrived at the main gate
with no place to stay and no
money for a hotel or food. They
needed some assistance fast.
Their situation was unusual, but
not unexplainable. The bulk of
Jorell's last E-1 paycheck had
gone to paying his rent at their
apartment in Pensacola. When he
received orders one week previ-
ously, he was informed of a legal
30-day clause to help him break
his lease, but it did nothing to
eliminate the issue of rent for the
30 days they would be out of the
Pensacola apartment and living
somewhere in Jacksonville.
Jorell parked their Budget
rental truck in the Housing Office
parking lot.
"They had me on the list, but
it's a long waiting list," said
Jorell. "I told them our situation
and they gave me a house. The
only problem is that I didn't have
i
a car.
Back in the truck, Jorell and
Andreia drove to his command
and checked in.
"I explained my situation, and
they asked what my plans were.
I told them I was going to go to
Navy and Marine Corps Relief
Society. So I went to what I
thought was Navy Marine Corps
Relief Society but actually
turned out to be Fleet and Family
Support Center," said Jorell. "We
met Rufus and told him our situ-
ation."
Rufus Bundrige, financial
educator at NAS Jax Fleet and
Family Support Center (FFSC),
invited the couple into his office.
"I listened to some things they
had to tell me as far as what
their current situation was," said
Bundrige. "After listening to their

story and giving them some differ-
ent viewpoints, some options, they
began to perk up. Everything at
that point began to turn around
for the best, for the positive."
"He said to us, 'Oh, you are
driving a Budget truck around
base?' and we said, 'Yeah.' My
wife at this point, was really
depressed and frustrated about
our situation. It's like we joined
the military and all this stress
came," said Jorell. "When I wasn't
in the military, it was way easier.
I was working at a laboratory at
the time, and things were getting
better. Then when I joined, it got
worse."
"Rufus was so positive that it
influenced me, and my wife. I'm
not usually a negative person; I'm
always positive about things, but
being with my wife and having all
these things go on, I was just los-
ing my focus," said Jorell.
"I remember telling them not to
spend more than they had, to be
sure of the things they
needed, and to spend money
on the things that were necessi-
ties, as opposed to amenities just
to say, 'I'm keeping up with the
Joneses,'" said Bundrige of the
financial counseling he provided.
"We developed a financial work-
sheet, a plan they could put in
place to make sure they were pay-
ing the proper price for the items
that they felt they had to have,
and not just jump into getting
things that were brand new."
"Rufus said to us, 'You know
what? There's a lemon lot on base
that could help your transporta-
tion problem,'" said Jorell. "I was
thinking, 'Okay, what's a lemon
lot? Are we going to be selling
lemons?'"
To Jorell's relief, the lemon
lot Rufus referred to was the
Morale, Welfare and Recreation
Departments used car lot. Rufus
took Jorell and his wife to the lot
where they found an economi-
cal Honda Civic with the words
"Make an offer" on the car sheet.
Bundrige made the initial phone
call to an active duty senior chief
petty officer.
Then Jorell spoke with him. "I
said, 'Senior, I saw your car at
the lot. Could we meet so I could
explain more of my situation and
see how the car drives.'" He said,
'Yeah, sure! Let's go.'"
The senior chief came over from
Naval Hospital Jax, picked up
Jorell and Andreia, and the three
went to the used car lot. After
driving the car, Jorell explained
what he had to offer part of his
signing bonus for which he had
yet to fill out the paperwork.
Senior chief said he would
discuss it his wife, and Jorell
went to the Personnel Support
Detachment to fill out the paper-
work.
Back at FFSC, Bundrige
bought the couple a meal at the
McDonald's across the street
and then referred them to Navy-
Marine Corps Relief Society.
The counseling Bundrige pro-
vided made an ever-lasting
impression on them.
"He talked to us about putting
first things first, basically," said
Jorell. "To identify and define
what it was we really need, ver-
sus what we want."
Drifting, then, is not something
Jorell has been able to afford yet.
In a little over a year, he's bought
some parts, but not all that the
sport or his car require.
Senior chief sold his Honda
Civic to Jorell and Andreia when
Jorell's bonus came though. With
a better understanding of the
Navy lifestyle and a clear vision
of their own financial outlook,
the couple now has two cars and
an off-base apartment. "I'm well
pleased with how our finances
and budget made a 180-degree
turnaround," wrote Jorell in a
recent letter to FFSC.
"Rufus is good and very com-
petent in what he does. The les-
sons that he taught us have no
monetary price. He was at the
right place at the right time to
help us resolve our financial situ-
ation. We are grateful for such
a stranger then and now a very
special friend."

VP-30 Squadron Augment Unit
Providing fleet expertise
to the next generation
By Lt. j.g. Brandr Beekman-Ellner
With over six centuries of fleet-proven experience
to transfer to the maritime patrol community's
newest members, the VP-30 Squadron Augment
Unit (SAU) contributes to the operational readiness and
warfighting capabilities of VP and VQ activities world-
wide.
VP-30 serves as the Navy's Fleet Replacement Squadron
(FRS) for the maritime patrol and reconnaissance com-
munity, training all P-3C Orion and EP-3E Aries II air-
crew. VP-30 SAU supports this mission and in turn the
FRS supports the training and
NATOPS requirements of all cur-
rent P-3 Orion reserve squadrons.
The SAU enhances VP-30
training by allowing experienced
reserve personnel the opportuni-
ty to train new P-3 aircrew. With
22,000 combined pilot-in-command
flight hours and 600 years of total .
enlisted and officer service, SAU
personnel provide considerable expertise to VP-30.
VP-30 SAU consists of Selective Reservists who bal-
ance their civilian careers with their Naval Reserve ser-
vice by working alongside full-time support personnel on
active duty who manage day-to-day operations. The SAU's
13 officers and 63 enlisted personnel are led by VP-30
SAU Commanding Officer Cmdr. Stacey Whitehead and
Officer-in-Charge Cmdr. Michael Joyner.
This year the SAU amassed more than 750 flight hours
while flying more than 200 sorties. Typical missions for
SAU aircrew include routine pilot training, tactical train-
ing, navigation flights, functional check flights, and repo-
sition/ferry flights. SAU personnel have also completed
more than 265 simulator events this year.
Across the maritime patrol and reconnaissance commu-
nity, VP-30 SAU makes significant contributions to fleet
operational readiness by transferring their expertise to
the next generation of VP and VQ aircrew.

Security manager honored
under my feet
By Beth Wilson
Special Contributor n
We interrupt this
series on new-
spouse support
for a news bulletin con-
cerning earthquakes, tor-
nados, floods, heat waves
and wildfires. I experi-
enced the recent earth-
quake in Los Angeles. It
started as a low rumble
and then everything start-
ed to shake. This was my
first earthquake and, may
I say, there is something
inherently wrong with the
earth moving beneath your
feet!
I'm from the mid-Atlantic
region. I can sail through a
winter blizzard, hurricanes
and the occasional tornado
- but an earthquake? Not
so much. Thankfully, for
this earthquake wimp, it
was a minor tremor, but I
still want orders to the east
coast now!
So, why am I talking
about it? Texas just expe-
rienced hurricanes Dolly
and Eduardo-and we are
just beginning the hurri-
cane season. Add in over
100 wildfires in California
along with a banner year of
floods and tornadoes in the
Midwest and the question
remains, "Are you ready to
face whatever may come
your way?
I once served as ombuds-
man with an experienced
Navy spouse named Teri
Fisher. She chuckled as she
told me about her encoun-
ters with an earthquake in
California, a hurricane in
Florida, wildfires and much
more. Her advice: "It's not if
something will happen; it is
when -so be informed and
prepared."
So, as part of your 'back
to school' preparations take
time to get ready for possi-
ble emergencies. I refer you
to the many resources to
assist you in putting togeth-
er your emergency kit and

Military Spouse of
the Year Award now
accepting nominations
From Military Spouse Magazine
M military Spouse magazine (I1. S111)
is now accepting
nominations for its
2009 Military Spouse of the
Year (MSOY) award, spon-
sored by USAA. The MSOY
honoree represents the mil-
lions of military spouses who
are unsung heroes maintain-
ing the homefront, giving
back selflessly to their com-
munities, and providing sup-
port to our nation's troops.
Often, these spouses also
have full-time jobs and raise
families.
In recognition of their \\
countless contributions,
MSM will honor one exem-
plary military spouse from
each service branch and also
select one overall winner.
The 2009 MSOY will be
announced and honored
nationally in the June issue ~_
of Military Spouse magazine
and at the second annual
MSOY Awards Ceremony to
be held during the week of May 4, 2009
in Washington, DC, in conjunction with
National Military Spouse Appreciation
Week.
The winner will make additional pub-
lic appearances, write a monthly column
to appear in Military Spouse magazine,
and maintain a blog during his/her reign,
which will last through May 2010.
MSM and its readers will select the
winner based on his/her
inspirational representa-
tion of all military spouses.
Nominees must be the spouse
of a current member of the
U.S. armed forces. Criteria
I for selecting the recipient
include: impact on commu-
nity change, volunteerism,
personal sacrifice, educa-
tion and career pursuits and
other military spouse-related
efforts. Last year's award
generated hundreds of nomi-
nations from across the coun-
try.
MSM encourages individu-
als to submit a nomination
for either themselves or an
eligible nominee of their
choice. To submit a nomina-
tion, individuals must com-
plete the nomination form
online at www.msoy.mil-
spouse.com.
The nomination period
runs from today through Oct.
8. Judges will review all submissions
and select ten finalists from each mili-
tary service branch, after which readers
will select one branch winner.
Judges include a hand-selected por-
tion of MSM's "Who's Who of Military
Spouses," a list of influential military
spouses.
From TRICARE Management Activity
In response to research indicating the
increased risk of dental disease during

Dental Program (TDP)
enrollees.
"We are very excited that
we can offer this enhanced
benefit for our expectant
TDP enrollees," said Dr.
Gary Martin, TRICARE
dental care branch chief.
Prior to the enhance-
ment, effective in June,
the TDP coverage allowed for two clean-
ing procedures in a consecutive 12-month
period. The modification allows for a third
cleaning for mothers-to-be in the 12-month
period.
The American Dental Association (ADA)
stresses that maintaining good oral health
is an important part of overall health, espe-
cially during pregnancy.
Research suggests there may be a corre-
lation between maternal gum disease, and
pre-term and low-birth-
weight babies and that
pregnant women with gum
disease may be more likely
to develop gestational dia-
Sbetes.
,.. "Any infection pres-
Sent in the mother can
pose risks for her unborn
baby," said Dr. Martin.

46 ly important to maintain
good oral hygiene habits
during pregnancy."

Good study habits
for adults and youths
From Staff
Starting college or
returning to school
as an adult can be
daunting, but when you're
a Sailor, Marine, or mili-
tary spouse, it can seem
overwhelming. The idea of
taking statistics or chemis-
try may make you hesitate,
but don't let doubts stand
in your way. Developing
solid study habits will help
your personal success as
a student. It will also give
you ideas to help your chil-
dren develop lifelong skills
that pay off long before
they send out college appli-
cations.
Getting Started
Having a routine and
a regular place to study
is essential to developing
strong study skills. Some
people study more effective-
ly in the morning, others at
night. Discover your best
time and develop a schedule
that allows for your peak
study time.
Getting Organized
Whether you're in college
or middle school, you'll find
that lack of organization is
the main cause of low aca-
demic performance. With
multiple teachers to answer
to and different class sched-
ules and assignments to
track, unorganized students
find themselves quickly fall-
ing behind and risking their
grade point average (GPA).
Keep a separate notebook
for each class. The type of
notebook will depend on
the teacher and the assign-
ments. Color-code classes if
necessary.
Take good notes and keep
a calendar. Class notes,
assignments, tape record-
ings (if the teacher allows
it), and personal reminders
help you keep pace and not
be surprised by that Fi'ili.y
afternoon quiz.
Pens, pencils, printer ink
cartridges, and other sup-
plies should be convenient
to your study area.
Backpacks keep every-
thing together and avail-
able. Make sure you rou-
tinely check the supplies in
your backpack or organizer
bag if you're
often on the
road or in
different
locations to
study.
Balancing
Family,
Fun, Work,
and School
If you are
returning to
school as an
adult, set-
ting family
and career
priorities is the first step in
time management and
that's the first step toward
success.
Yes, you might have to
put favorite activities or
social interests on hold for
a while, but in the long run
you'll find that any sacrific-
es were well worth the time
invested in your education.
(You can always go shop-
ping or tinker with cars
later.) Study guides help
you find what works best
for you or your child. Good
study habits can make the
difference between just
passing and making the
dean's list.

Preparing for a military pack-out
By Deb Trzcinski
LIFELines
The procedure of
being packed and
moved by the mili-
tary begins at your local
Personal Property Office
(PPO) or Transportation
Management office (TMO).
Both the service mem-
ber receiving permanent
change of station (PCS)
orders and the spouse
should attend the appoint-
ment to set up the move,
especially if you are new to
the military. Spouses are
often tasked with carrying
out the move alone when
the Sailor or Marine is sent
ahead to a duty station or
on a deployment.
Tools to use
If a spouse is unable
to be present for this
appointment, there are
other avenues. The Naval
Supply Systems Command
(NAVSUP) Household
Goods website is the perfect
destination for just about
everything you ever want-
ed to know about packing,
loading, and transporting
your property. It's Your
Move is also published
online, so you can read it
well in advance at your con-
venience. Smart Web Move
is a newly developed site
for setting up moves online.
It's offered in select loca-
tions, with many more to
follow.
Decisions, decisions,
decisions
Before setting up a pack-
and-load day, decide how
you want to work out lodg-
ing arrangements at both
ends. Keep in mind that
you may need to use the
paid lodging time at your
new location for house
hunting. If you arrange for
your goods to be picked up
early, determine whether
you'll stay with friends, in
a hotel, or camp out in your
empty house.
It is advisable not to set
up your pack-and-load days
right up to the date of your
departure. Give yourself a
buffer of a day or more to
decrease the level of stress
during this time.
Pay attention
The most important
aspect of your pack-out
day is the requirement of
your attention. Two people
should be present in the
home on pack-and-load day.
If necessary, ask an adult
friend or family member
to be with you during this
time. You can oversee dif-
ferent parts of the house,
and if one of you has to
leave temporarily, the
other will be there to keep a
watchful eye.
The people packing your
things are being sent by a
moving company contracted
by the government. Their
job is to complete your
pack-out within an allot-
ted time frame. While there
are standard packing proce-
dures, its best to be present
to ensure the careful han-
dling of your goods. Reasons
for your astute awareness
include, but are not limited
to:
Watching for items
being squeezed into tight
places.
Finding things you
don't want packed and may
have forgotten to separate.
Observing how an item
is packed, in case you do
the unpacking.
Unseen items being
left out of boxes (such as
the contents of drawers and
cabinets).
Make arrangements for
children and pets to be
elsewhere on pack-out day.
Cats have been known to
slip into boxes undetected.
It's a harrowing way for
your feline friend to arrive
at her new home.
Three degrees
of separation
Anything in your house
that is not nailed down
is likely to be wrapped in
paper and put in a box,
which isn't supposed to be
opened, once it's sealed.
A concise list of items
you plan to keep with you
during the move will come
in handy as the day draws
near. Keep these items
- including valuables -
separate from everything
else. Clear out a closet or
a bathroom and place the
items there. Mark the door
with a sign that reads "Do
not pack." For a higher
guarantee of safety and to
eliminate any potential con-
fusion, put these items in
your car or in a neighbor's
home prior to the arrival of
the packers.
If you're moving over-
seas, predetermine what
items to send in the express
shipment, which is a
small amount of non-fur-
niture necessities (linens,
small appliances, etc.,) to
tide you over until your
regular shipment arrives.
These items are packed and
picked up prior to the larger
shipment.
Military members are
allowed to claim a desig-
nated amount of goods as
professional gear that does
not count against the total
weight allotment. This is
any item pertaining specifi-
cally to the service mem-
ber's profession within the
military, such as special
uniforms, computers, books,
or instruments, which
should be separated before
the packers arrive. Declare
professional gear, regard-
less of whether you think
its necessary. It is advisable
to include necessary profes-
sional items in your express
shipment to enable you to
perform professional duties
immediately upon arrival
at your destination.
When packers won't pack
It should be noted that if
your home is riddled with
fleas, you stand the chance
of not completing your move
in a timely manner. Packers
can refuse their services if a
home is infested with bugs
or is exceptionally filthy.
Items covered in dirt or
not prepared for the move
may also be left behind.
Before the move, clean
grills, empty the gas out of
lawn mowers, and remove
mud from outdoor fur-
niture and toys. Plan to
either carry plants with you
or find them a new home
before leaving.
What packers might pack
Besides Fluffy, there are
other things you wouldn't
want tucked into boxes for
the duration. Before your
pack-out, check for cof-
fee grounds in the coffee
maker, trash in garbage
cans, water in the iron, and
dusty bed canopies, to name
a few.
All the while
There's rarely a time
that a military family is
not, in some way, think-
ing about an ensuing move.
Here are some things that
can be done throughout a
tour to make the pack-and-
load process easier when it
comes along:
Hang on to crates built
for special pieces, such as
grandfather clocks. These
can be used on your next
move and will save the gov-
ernment hundreds of dol-
lars.
Store original packag-
ing and boxes from appli-
ances, such as TVs, stereos,
and computers. Your elec-
tronic equipment will fare
better if it can be packed as
it comes from the factory.
Keep a running photo
or video inventory of large
or costly items, along with
all receipts. A date stamp
may be necessary for future
damage claims.
Brush up on restric-
tions on household goods
shipments to foreign coun-
tries, particularly if you
anticipate a future transfer
oversees.
Remove existing stick-
ers on items from previous
moves.
Clear unnecessary
clutter on a regular basis
to eliminate this headache
prior to a move.
Be aware of weight
restrictions, which are
based on the members pay
grade. If your shipment sur-
passes your allotment, you
will be required to pay the
difference. Check with your
local PPO or TMO for tips
on estimating the weight of
your household goods.
Have antiques or other
high-value items appraised.
Read up on insurance
matters concerning military
moves. Check with your
own insurance company,
as well as the military, to
get information on coverage
of goods in transit and the
potential need for addition-
al insurance on high-value
items.
Coping with disaster enl
e pResearch
Be prepared with the right portable generator ddictd .ofi.dig .u
From Naval Safety Center
Power outages in
Florida leave homes
hot, dark and eerily
quiet. Portable genera-
tors can provide tempo-
rary relief by powering up
conveniences you count on
everyday, such as refrig-
erators, microwave ovens,
fans and other appliances.
Purchase enough capac-
ity. When you decide to
buy a generator, make sure
it's rated to provide for
the amount of power you
require. Look at the labels
on lighting, appliances and
equipment for the wattage
that they consume. Motor-
driven appliances listed in
horsepower must be con-
verted to watts. Then add
the total wattage for all the
appliances.
Shop for generators that
produce more power than
will be drawn by the combi-
nation of lighting, applianc-
es and equipment you plan
to operate including the
initial surge when power is
turned on.
Be sure to read instruc-
tions that come with the
generator to make sure you
operate it within its limi-
tations for power output.
If your generator does not
produce adequate power for
all your needs, plan to stag-
ger the operating times of
various appliances.
Operate safely
Residential use of porta-
ble generators is growing
rapidly as well as the sense
of complacency concerning
safety. Besides the comforts
that portable power plants
provide, never lose focus
on the safe installation and
operation of your unit.
If you plan to hook up
a generator to your home
wiring, you must hire a
licensed electrician to
ensure that the connection
complies with national and
local building codes and
that the generator is prop-
erly grounded eliminating
the possibility of electrocu-
tion.

12 hp 2,300 575
71/2 hp 18,000 4,500
Never try to power
house wiring by plugging
the generator into a wall
outlet, a practice known
as "back feeding." This is
an extremely dangerous
practice that presents an
electrocution risk to util-
ity workers and neighbors
served by the same utility
transformer. It also bypass-
es some of the built-in
household circuit protection
devices.
Locate the generator out-
side away from doors and
windows. Provide a mini-
mum of three to four feet of
clear space on all sides to
supply fresh air for proper
cooling during operation.
When connecting appli-
ances directly to the gen-
erator, always use heavy
duty, outdoor-rated, three-
prong cords of correct size
along with a surge-protect-
ed power strip. Overloaded
cords can cause fires or
equipment damage. And
make sure the cords from
the generator don't present
a tripping hazard.
Gasoline engines give off
deadly carbon monoxide
(CO), a colorless and odor-
less gas, so it's a good idea
to install battery operated
CO alarms in your home.
Under no circumstances
is it safe to use portable
generators indoors or in
partially enclosed areas
such as a garage, carport
or Florida room. Opening
doors and windows or using
fans will not prevent CO
buildup in the home. The
CO from generators can
rapidly lead to incapacita-
tion and death. If you start
to feel nauseous, dizzy or
weak while using a genera-
tor get outside for fresh air
right away.
Air-cooled engines run
very hot and can start a fire
when in proximity to flam-
mable items. If gasoline
spills onto a hot engine it
could ignite, so before refu-
eling, turn off the generator
and let it cool.
Use only approved safe-
ty containers to store fuel.
Local laws may restrict the
amount of fuel you can store
or where you may store it.
Ask your fire department
for additional information.

How not to pay for what your ex-spouse gets
By Lt.j.g.Cara Addison, JAGC
Special Contributor
The issues involved with a divorce are not over
when the judge signs the final decree. Rather,
each party must take additional steps to carry out
the provisions of the divorce judgment.
It is especially important to take a look at how large or
valuable pieces of property continue to be owned and paid
for after the divorce. If one ex-spouse is not aware of his or
her financial liability -or does nothing to change it he or
she may be faced with responsibility for an item he or she
does not own and does not use.
Homes and automobiles are typically the focus, but ex-
spouses should be careful about anything that has a loan,
promissory note or payment attached to it. Regardless of
whose names are on the deed to a home or the title to a
car, the liability for paying on the mortgage, loan or note
depends on who is listed as the mortgagor, debtor or bor-
rower. Borrowing money creates a contract between the
parties. A subsequent divorce will not affect the terms of
the contract and will not redefine the parties to the con-
tract. Since most couples take out a mortgage or otherwise
borrow money together using both names, whichever
ex-spouse is not awarded the financed piece of property
needs to make sure that his or her name is removed as
mortgagor, debtor or borrower. This is not automatic after
a divorce.
Here's a common example: the ex-wife is awarded the
p
. !
.:
marital home in the separation agreement and in the
judgment of dissolution. The ex-wife and ex-husband had
originally mortgaged the home using both of their names.
After the divorce was made final, the ex-wife modified the
deed to the home by removing the ex-husband's name as
joint owner. In other words, the deed held that the ex-wife
was the sole owner of the home. The ex-husband failed to
take any steps to also remove his name from the mortgage
on the home held by the bank. The ex-wife defaulted on
the mortgage by missing payments, and the bank then
contacted the ex-husband for payment. In this situation,
the ex-husband is liable for the default and responsible for
the debt. It makes no difference that the home was given
uideDog 4
foundation n
For The Blind, Inc.
to the ex-wife in the divorce, nor that his name is not on
the deed.
What does this mean as a practical matter? Many times
it means that ex-spouses who receive such property in a
divorce proceeding must refinance in their name only. If
this is impossible, the other ex-spouse should not give in
or give up and allow his or her name to remain on the
mortgage, loan or note. The better option is to require a
co-signer or that the property be sold and the proceeds
divided. A soon-to-be-ex-spouse can protect himself or
herself without seeming heartless. A wise one solves the
financial problems before they happen.

SLAP! mosquitoes
From City of Jacksonville Mosquito Control Division
Living in Florida makes avoiding mosquitoes very
difficult. The following are tips so you can enjoy
the outdoors in Jacksonville without being eaten
alive.
1.) During periods of excessively high mosquito inci-
dence, stay indoors as much as possible.
2.) Wear protective clothing in locations of high mos-
quito incidence. Protective clothing includes long pants,
long-sleeve shirts, shoes and socks. Be aware mosquitoes
can bite right through T-shirts
and other lightweight, tight-fit-
ting clothing.
3.) Use insect repellent before
going into high-risk areas. The
most effective protection may
be obtained through the use of
products containing at least 20
to 35 percent DEET for adults
and up to 10 percent DEET for
children. Follow the directions
carefully and do not over-apply.
Mosquitoes will bite unprotected
skin, so apply repellent to all exposed areas of the body
as well as to your clothing. Don't allow repellent to get
in your eyes, mouth or nose. (The Centers for Disease
Control has information that answers various questions
regarding insect repellent use and safety.)
4.) Keep window screens and screened rooms in good
repair. Screen doors should open outward and have auto-
matic closing devices and latches to prevent them from
being accidentally left ajar.
5.) Check around your home for areas where mos-
quitoes may be breeding and eliminate any standing
water. Pet dishes and bird baths need to be checked and
refilled a minimum of every five days to prevent mosqui-
toes from breeding.

Free workshop for new or soon-to-be-parents
From Fleet and Family Support
Center
The nationally recognized
Born LearningTM parent
workshop series begins
Sept. 2, from 4 6 p.m. at the
NAS Jax Child Development
Center located near the NEX.
Born Learning Coordinator
Melodie Dove said the workshop
teaches simple, easy-to-do activi-
ties that promote healthy growth
and early literacy.
"We're very interactive in this
workshop and it's fun, too. We
have refreshments and door priz-
es, and each family receives their
free Born Learning Toolkit.
Born Learning focuses on the
following topics:
Playing the Games
Helps parents and caregivers
understand that children learn
while playing. When they use
their imagination they are devel-
oping and increasing their vocab-
ulary. Playing with and singing
to children, mimicking words and
sounds develops and increases
born learning M
vocabulary.
Play stimulates a child's curios-
ity, creativity and intellect.
Learning on the go
Helps parents and caregivers
understand that every moment is
a learning moment.
Participants are encouraged to
have children observe the world
around them everywhere they go.
For example, on a bus find every-
thing that is blue. In a car find all
the circles, squares and triangles.
At the supermarket find the letter
K, or the red foods.
Dads are Different
Helps parents understand that
a father's role is very important.
Fathers and mothers have differ-
ent yet equally important styles
and manners in which they inter-
act with children. Helps fathers
understand their value in their
children's lives. Learn that
fathers tend to be direct in com-
munication and indirect in help
by guiding child to find answers
on their own.
Ages and Stages
Healthy growth and development
milestones help parents under-
stand the main stages of develop-
ment includes weaning potty train-
ing and effective discipline.
Effective Discipline

Avoid back pain from school backpack
From the Safety Office
It is that time of year when parents frantically pre-
pare their children for school. Soon millions of chil-
dren will be stuffing their backpacks with all the
essentials for a successful school year. While backpacks
are usually the preferred method of carrying school sup-
plies, if not properly fitted and worn, they can result in
neck, back, head, arm and shoulder discomfort or injury.
Generally, the weight of a backpack should not exceed
15 percent of the user's body weight.
However, with heavier textbooks, the prevalence of
portable computers and students carrying more personal
items, the weight of backpacks can easily exceed the 15
percent limit. Recent studies of school children show that
most carry backpacks that exceed the 15 percent body
weight rule and one third of the students suffer from back
pain.
Important tips to consider when using a backpack:
1. Do not overload.
2. Make sure the backpack:
a. rests comfortably on the shoulders and under the
arms,
b. sits on the hips and pelvic area, not at the top of the
USO Airport Welcome Center
Volunteers needed to staff the USO Welcome Center at Jacksonville
International Airport. A variety of shifts are available. Call Lynne at
305-4467 or email lynne@usojax.com.
Boy Scouts need some help
The Boy Scouts of America need volunteers to work with at-risk
children in two communities in Jacksonville. The program is primarily
in the afternoon for one hour, one day a week. We always appreciate
monetary gifts -- but your time is the most precious gift of all. Being
a team leader means a lot to a young child. If not a team leader, be
a presenter to share your special skills with children. Contact Aubrey
Smith at 504-6182.

Feed the homeless

1,000 meals every day of the year. These meals are prepared
and served with the help of over 100 civic, religious and business
organizations. Serving meals is a fun and feel-good way to give back
to the community. Call 394-1356.

ongoing support from trained staff members. Call 727-9797 or e-mail

back or the buttocks,
c. fits the contour of the lower back, and
d. is not wider than the shoulders or longer than the
area from the base of the neck to the top of the hips.
3. Buy a backpack with wide, padded shoulder straps
and a waist belt:
a. the waist belt distributes the weight on the pelvis
and hips,
b. if user insists on using only one strap, switch shoul-
ders often.
4. Keep the weight in the backpack close to the body and
arrange the heaviest items closest to the back.
5. Use a backpack with wheels or a luggage cart.
6. Look for styles with compartments, which help dis-
tribute the weight.
The following signals suggest improper backpack use:
Red marks and creases on the shoulders,
Aching in the shoulders, neck or back,
Pain or tingling in the arms, wrists and hands,
Struggling to get the backpack on and off
Noticeable imbalances in the child's posture, includ-
ing tilting the head and neck to one side and an uneven
walk.

Crenshaw to honor Vietnam vets at Mayport
From Staff
U S. Congressman Ander
Crenshaw (R-Fla.) announced
he will again recognize the con-
tributions of Vietnam War veterans liv-
ing in the 4th Congressional District of
Florida by presenting them with certifi-
cates of Special Congressional Recognition
in honor of their service to our country.
The 2007 ceremony acknowledged 269
veterans. This year's recognition ceremony
will be Nov. 7 at NS Mayport. To partici-
pate, eligible veterans must register before
Oct. 3.
"Vietnam veterans served our country
with honor during one of our most tumul-
tuous times as a nation," said Crenshaw.
"They answered the call of duty, but
when they returned home, many did not
receive the recognition they properly
deserved. These brave individuals helped
fight for freedom and democracy at a time
when their country needed them this cer-
emony will show our appreciation."
Members of the armed forces who were
awarded either the Vietnam Service Medal
or the Vietnam Campaign Medal are eli-
gible for the recognition. The Vietnam
Service Medal was awarded to those who
served in Vietnam and its contiguous
waters and airspace between July 3, 1965
and March 28, 1973. In addition, person-
nel serving in Thailand, Laos or Cambodia
in direct support of operations in Vietnam
during the same time period are also eli-
gible for the medal. Armed Forces mem-
bers who qualified for the Armed Forces
Expeditionary Medal by service in Vietnam
between July 1, 1958 and July 3, 1965 will
also be recognized.
The Vietnam Campaign Medal was
awarded to those who served for six
months in South Vietnam during the peri-
od March 1, 1961 to March 28, 1973 or
served outside the geographical limits of
South Vietnam and contributed direct com-
bat support to the RVN armed forces for an
aggregate of six months.
Criteria for both medals are set by the
Department of Defense and recipients
should have the medal listed on their DD-
214s.
If you are a Vietnam veteran and were
eligible to receive either the Vietnam
Service Medal or the Vietnam Campaign
Medal and live in the 4th Congressional
District, please contact Crenshaw's offices
at (904) 598-0481 or (386) 365-3316 or go
to http://crenshaw.house.gov/ to obtain an
application.

My favorite game is FrQIBijl i L.. i, as well as most people, do not enjoy playing all of the games
some car dealers do, when trying to purchase a vehicle. I would like to invite you to visit my favorite
dealer, where you do not need a magnifying glass to read the fine print, be a lawyer, or an accountant,
r to understand their ad. The price advertised, is the price your pay, including everything, all taxes, fees
and tag...DRIVE OUT!
