The allowance without dependentsdecreased from 757.50 to 670.50 euro.

The MIHA forboth with and without dependent membersalso decreased from 902 to 723 euro. All of Italy is authorized MIHA Security asof May, 16 2015. MIHA Security is a dollar-

for-dollar reimbursement through a DDForm 2556 for security-related expenses forphysical modifications to a dwelling. Due tothis new allowance, costs for security bars,security doors, burglar alarms, keys, andlocks were not included in the calculationof the MIHA Miscellaneous survey, whichcontributed to the decrease along withlower electricity, bottled gas, heating oil,sewer, trash and maintenance expenses re-ported. The next OHA Utility survey inItaly is scheduled for March 2016 and thenext MIHA survey is slated for 2018.

Now-Aug. 10: Basketball TournamentDoes your team have what it takes? Regis-ter now for the 5 vs. 5 Basketball Tourna-

We’re in the middle of the sum-mer PCS season and over thelast month we’ve said arrivedercito many of our friends and bongiorno to many newcomers toour community. For those justarriving, I welcome you toNaples and the Naval SupportActivity family, and look forwardto seeing you at some of our up-coming events. Working overseasis a rewarding and sometimeschallenging experience. Estab-lishing a solid support networkto help you is essential. NSANaples has numerous resources to help newcomers and seasonedresidents alike, don’t hesitate to reach out and ask questions. Thecity of Naples itself is a treasure trove of history with artifactsand structures dating back to the original Greek settlements. Justvisiting the museums, theaters and restaurants of Naples and thelocal area could fill your entire tour, not to mention visiting theamazing isles just off the coast. After getting settled and comfort-able in the local area, consider planning a European vacation.Just around the corner from the Capo front gate is the Naples In-ternational Airport, with many direct flights for weekend get-aways. Please utilize our free and safe parking at the Capo westparking garage. If you’re not sure where to go, make your firsttrip to the ITT office or the USO to find information on structuredtours available. Last Thursday, July 23rd, NCTS Naples put together a trashpickup event on the Support Site led by their Commanding Offi-cer, Capt. Reece Morgan and Command Fitness Leader CarterHollingsworth. Command volunteers and family members col-lected 70 bags of trash! I would like to send a personal thank youto NCTS for having the initiative, and taking the time to giveback to the community and promote a clean environment that wecan all be proud of. BRAVO ZULU. I appreciate everyone’s in-volvement in making our base a place where we are proud to live,and I look forward to many future event events that focus on sup-porting our community.With August begins the European summer vacation season andthe exodus of many Italians to see family abroad or to go to thebeach. This means there will be less traffic, but it can also be diffi-cult to find shops and restaurants open at convenient times. Besure to plan ahead and know where the nearest pharmacy, gro-cery store, and other essential businesses that will be open for Au-gust are located. This low point in traffic also means thebeginning of upgrade construction at our Entry Control Points forCapo and the Support Site. Pay close attention to the PAO Notes,the official NSA Facebook page, and radio shows for updates andschedules of construction. We ask that everyone have patience inthe coming month and leave home early in the morning to com-pensate for unforeseen delays. As you enjoy the month of August, please keep safety in mind,and look out for each other as you go about your daily routines.Remember that it is a privilege to be a designated driver, and it isOK to slow down and drive the speed limit – especially on base!

Downtown Naples Gets Facelift WithThree New MuralsThree large murals were inaugurated inNaples on Monday. The murals werepainted on three buildings of a park in thePonticelli district near an area of low-in-come housing, in which there has beenfighting between clans from the Camorracriminal organizations in recent weeks.The first three murals were completed onMonday. Two Sicilian artists, Rosk andLoste covered the entire façade of a build-ing with the faces of two young, happyboys playing football. A Neapolitan artistpainted a Roma child’s face, and the sec-ond mural painted by Zedls, a well-knownItalian street artist, depicts a puppet Pul-cinella clinging to a joypad. Naples MayorLuigi de Magistris said the project “con-tributes to the recovery of neglected spacesand sends strong messages of integrationto youth through the idea of play.” ArtistFrancesco Bosoletti painted an enormousNeapolitan siren on the front of an apart-ment building in Naples’ central areaMater Dei where its inhabitants formed anassociation to collect funds for the mural.

Controne Mayor Outlaws BarkingDogsNicola Pastore, the mayor of Controne, asmall town in the province of Salerno is-sued an ordinance in which dog barking isforbidden during the Italian afternoon napor riposo between 2 and 4 p.m. Dog ownersface fines between 20 and 500 euros iftheir dogs bark during that time. Thereare similar moves to improve the welfareof the town’s dogs, such as dogs that aretied up now are required to have chains atleast five meters long and access to foodand water, and they do not have to be leftalone in public spaces.

Grande Hotel San Calogero, One ofItaly’s Biggest White ElephantsThe construction of the Grande Hotel SanCalogero in Sicily started more than 60years ago and aimed to offer guests thechance to experience the nearby thermalbaths with the best of Sicily. The construc-tion of the hotel with its 300-beds and five-stories began in 1954, and constructionsoon began. Thirty years later, it wasnearly complete, but in the early 1980s,there was a disagreement over who wouldmanage the hotel. Over the next decadethe hotel fell into ruin. Sicily’s regional au-

thorities decided to revamp it. In 1993 thehotel was ready to be opened and therewas also an official opening. But unfortu-nately it was found out that after 40 yearsof work, the hotel was without a properlyconnected drainage system. In 2000, therewere plans to finally connect the hotel’sdrainage system to the town but worknever started because the council forgot toask for the funds. The Grande Hotel SanCalogero can be considered as one ofItaly’s biggest white elephants.

Italian Military Police Arrest 13‘Fake’ CopsThe Italian military police arrested agroup of 13 robbers who posed as Cara-binieri and Finance police using fakesearch warrants to gain entry to homes.The gang carried out eight robberies inNaples and Castelvolturno between Marchand December 2014. Carabinieri seizedseven waistcoats with fake Carabinieriand finance police identification, a starterpistol and 10 fake police berets. The 13robbers were charged with belonging to acriminal gang set up to carry out theftsand burglaries, using weapons illegallyand pretending to be police officers.

Europe’s Biggest Smart Phone UsersAre Italians A recent study showed Italians to be theheaviest users of smartphones in Europeespecially for chatting. The most popularmessaging application is WhatsApp, whichis currently used by 59.6 percent of Italiansmartphone owners. The report showedthat 61 percent of male and 65 percent offemale smartphone owners use social net-working sites on their mobile phones, com-pared to the EU average of 53 and 57percent, respectively. Italians use socialmedia not just for socializing but also toread news media compared to their Euro-pean counterparts. According to the data,55 percent of male and 51 percent of fe-male smartphone owners read local orworld news on their devices, compared anaverage of just 49 and 41 percent acrossthe five countries surveyed. Currently, 60percent of all Italians own a smartphone,but excessive smartphone use is associatedwith some health problems that can in-clude vision loss, numb fingers, wriststrain and a spinal problem known as“text neck” caused by people continuouslycraning their necks to read messages ontheir phones, and above all Italian driverstaking a selfie of themselves while drivingcan be responsible for major accidents.

Fought nearly a centuryfollowing the RevolutionaryWar, the Civil War is consi-dered by many historians tobe the first modern warthanks to cutting-edge te-chnology.Unlike the 1776 campaign,the Civil War was truly re-volutionary in many ways:First use of mechanizedtransportation to movelarge numbers of troops(trains); first use of rapid-fire guns (gatling guns);first use of electronic com-munications (telegraph);first use of photographs todocument the war; first useof mechanized and iron-cladwarships; first use of sub-marines; first use of torpe-does, mines and grenades;and first use of rifles and

scopes for specially-desi-gned sniper rifles. Perhapsmost revolutionary of all,was the first use of aerialreconnaissance (balloons).In July 1861 AeronautJohn LaMountain, ofWayne County, N.Y., hadmade a name for himselfbecoming the first Americanto make an aerial recon-naissance from a balloon atFort Monroe, Va., and re-porting on Confederate acti-vity.A month later, on August3, 1861, LaMountain madethe first manned ascent in aballoon from a ship.Making a nighttime ascentto 2,000 feet above theJames River, from theUnion gunboat, Fanny, La-Mountain was tasked withreporting on the numbers ofConfederate artillery batte-

From the NSA Naples Energy Management Team

The Biggest Loser competition has almost ended.The competition ends July 31, 2015. Yet, we are still compet-ing. Next week in Panorama you can check the July five topbiggest losers and the five worst savers for NSA Naples. Wewould like to remind readers that the grand prize is $70,000,and that second and third place winners will be awarded$50,000 and $30,000 respectively.The grand prize winner will be the installation with thegreatest decrease in energy consumption for the month of July.The winning installation will be announced on August.Please don’t stop your efforts for Energy savings, pleasethink: “Cheapest energy is the energy you never used.”Below some easy tips to follow to increase our energy effi-ciency:● Turn off yours monitors: When leaving your workspace for aperiod longer than 20 minutes, turn off your monitor to con-serve energy● Turn off the lights: Turn off the lights in any area that isunoccupied as long as it does not pose a safety hazard (stair-wells should probably remain lighted at all times) ● Turn off equipment: When leaving your office for the daypower down all non-mission essential equipment.● Turn off the coffee pot: Everyone likes hot coffee but there isno point in heating an empty pot. Turn off the coffee pot whennot in use. ● Proper fan use: Fans cool people not the room.

to be turning to us to help de-fend it in the midst of a po-tential crisis and as a resultwe will generate capabilitiesthat we could potentiallyapply, if directed, against por-tions of those 16 segments,”he said.The DoD CybersecurityStrategy that Defense Secre-tary Ash Carter released inApril quantifies the kinds ofprivate-sector attacks DoDwill respond to as “cyberevents of significant conse-quence,” Rogers added, mak-ing the point that “thegovernment is not signing upto” defend everything.In the end, the admiral said,“it is all about our ability tocreate partnerships. It is theability of the private sectorand the government to teamtogether to generate betteroutcomes for the nation, notjust for us but our allies aswell.”Another important part ofthe strategy involves helpfrom NSA.

Warnings and Indications“We have said that NSA willuse its foreign intelligencemission to generate insightsas to what key cyber actorsaround the world are doing,”Rogers said.The idea is to get ahead ofthe problem by getting in-sights at the point of originrather than waiting for theattack, the admiral said.These insights could provideindications and warning tothe government and the pri-vate sector before the attackoriginates, Rogers said.“This is what you’re going tosee,” he said, referring to whatNSA can tell a private-sectorcompany thatwill share theright kind ofdata, “this ishow you canbest structureyour defense todefeat it.”Between NSAand U.S. CyberCommand,Rogers said, “wetry to do all ofthat with theprivate sector.”But he re-minded the au-dience thatCybercom isjust one part of a broaderenterprise, naming the De-partment of Homeland Secu-rity and the FBI as two ofthe command’s biggest part-ners on cyber defense.

Critical Partnerships“One of the reasons why thepartnership is so important –using NSA resources to monitor

and guard U.S. networks –that’s not our mission,” Rogerssaid, “and it’s against the law… but on the other hand I dowant to create a partnershipwhere we’re able to share infor-mation with each other.”An example, he said, wasthe Sony Pictures Entertain-ment hack in November 2014sponsored by North Korea.After the hack, Sony went tothe U.S. government for help,he said, and the governmentdetermined that the hackwas a criminal act.The FBI was designated asthe lead agency, Rogers said,“and the FBI turns to NSAand says, ‘We could use your

analytic help,will you partnerwith us in work-ing with Sony?’”The admiralsaid Sony coop-erated com-pletely with thegovernmentduring the in-vestigation.“We said, ‘Inorder to gener-ate the insightswe need, here’sthe kind of de-tail we need.’Sony did every-thing we asked.

We were able as a result togenerate insights relativelyquickly about what we wereseeing,” he explained.But Rogers was frustratedwith the situation.“This [cooperation] is great,”he said, “but the horse wasout of the barn … Why can’twe have this kind of dialogprior to the attack?”

DoD Releases Report on SecurityImplications of Climate Change

Global climate change will ag-gravate problems such aspoverty, social tensions, envi-ronmental degradation, ineffec-tual leadership and weakpolitical institutions thatthreaten stability in a numberof countries, according to a re-port the Defense Departmentsent to Congress on July 28.The Senate AppropriationsCommittee requested the re-port in conjunction with theDefense Appropriations Act forFiscal Year 2015, asking thatthe undersecretary of defensefor policy provide a report thatidentifies the most serious andlikely climate-related securityrisks for each combatant com-mand and the ways those com-mands integrate riskmitigation into their planningprocesses.

Fragile States Vulnerable to DisruptionThe report finds that climatechange is a security risk, Pen-tagon officials said, because itdegrades living conditions,human security and the abilityof governments to meet thebasic needs of their popula-tions. Communities and statesthat already are fragile andhave limited resources are sig-nificantly more vulnerable todisruption and far less likely torespond effectively and be re-silient to new challenges, theyadded.“The Department of Defense'sprimary responsibility is toprotect national security inter-

ests around the world,” officialssaid in a news release an-nouncing the report’s submis-sion. “This involves consideringall aspects of the global secu-rity environment and planningappropriately for potential con-tingencies and the possibilityof unexpected developmentsboth in the near and the longerterms.“It is in this context,” they con-tinued, “that the departmentmust consider the effects of cli-mate change -- such as sealevel rise, shifting climatezones and more frequent andintense severe weather events -- and how these effects couldimpact national security.”

Integrating Climate-Related Impacts PlanningTo reduce the national securityimplications of climate change,combatant commands are inte-grating climate-related impactsinto their planning cycles, offi-cials said. The ability of theUnited States and other coun-tries to cope with the risks andimplications of climate changerequires monitoring, analysisand integration of those risksinto existing overall risk man-agement measures, as appro-priate for each combatantcommand, they added.The report concludes the De-fense Department already is ob-serving the impacts of climatechange in shocks and stressorsto vulnerable nations and com-munities, including in theUnited States, the Arctic, theMiddle East, Africa, Asia andSouth America, officials said.

Enticing for Youth“E-cigs,” as they are known, aswell as personal vaporizers (PVs)are essentially electronic nicotinedelivery systems providing battery-powered doses of nicotine and otheradditives to the user in an aerosol.“We’re seeing a shift in what theview of smoking is becoming,” Lt.Cmdr. Michael Sracic, PublicHealth Department Head at NavalBranch Health Clinic Groton, said.“It’s been called the ‘renormaliza-tion’ of smoking behavior, and it’sdue to public misconception fromadvertising out there of what thisproduct actually is.”The flavors of electronic cigarettesare very enticing to a youth marketSracic said and “should be a majorconcern for all of us, especially par-ents.” Results from a national survey ofUnited States students in grades 6to 12 found that 44 percent of usersof e-cigarettes intended to smokeconventional cigarettes, comparedwith 22 percent of never users.

“While this survey does not provethat e-cigarette use increases thedesire to smoke conventional ciga-rettes, it does raise concerns that e-cigarettes may be a gateway tonicotine dependence in our youth,”Sracic said. “This would greatlypush back the efforts from the‘smoke free’ campaign in the pastdecade.” Moreover, a study released by theCenters for Disease Control andPrevention has reported that an in-creasing number of calls related toe-cigarette use are being made toUnited States poison control cen-ters. The study highlights that from alow of one such call per month topoison control centers in 2010,some 215 calls per month weremade 2014. That is an increasefrom less than one percent to nearly42 percent of all smoking-relatedcalls received by poison control cen-ters.“The nicotine in e-cigarette fluidposes a huge potential for acciden-tal ingestion, especially by chil-dren,” said Sracic. “The typical 5mL vial of e-cigarette liquid refillmay contain a nicotine concentra-tion of 100 mg/vial. The knownlethal dose of nicotine is about 10mg in children. E-cigarettes pose acritical risk in the hands of a child.”

Promoted as Helpful to Adults“There is no evidence that showsthese products are safe to use overthe long term or provide a physicaldifference in kicking a smoking ad-diction,” Sracic said.A recent study published by theUniversity of Rochester and con-ducted by one of the university’sprofessors of Environmental Medi-cine in its School of Medicine andDentistry, suggests that e-ciga-rettes could be a toxic replacementfor tobacco products.The study purports that inhaledvapors from an e-cig may containheavy metals and other possiblecarcinogens from the e-cigaretteand its heating element.While not associated with thestudy, Sracic urges similar caution.“Until more is known about thelong-term effects of e-cigs, the Foodand Drug Administration (FDA)and the American Cancer Associa-tion recommend steering clear ofthese devices,” advised Sracic.

Considered Similar by NavyWith so much still unknown aboute-cigarettes and their impacts, theNavy and SUBASE view themfairly straightforwardly, points outSUBASE Safety Director EdgarMartinez.“With regulations responding to

studies that have linked cigaretteuse, smokeless tobacco use, and sec-ond-hand smoke to health problemsand poor fitness, the Department ofDefense and Navy have tightenedrules around tobacco use and salesacross the service and fleet,” Mar-tinez said.Today, SECNAVINST 5100.13E,the Navy and Marine Corps To-bacco Policy, outlines the service’sdo’s and don’ts.“With a few exceptions, such aspersonal housing units, tobacco useinside facilities is controlled by thetobacco policy,” Martinez said. “Cur-rently, the Navy views tobaccoproducts as cigarettes, cigars, to-bacco, and smokeless tobacco. Butas the FDA is seeking to extend itsdefinition of a tobacco product to in-clude electronic cigarettes, theNavy is treating them similarly.”For Sracic and Martinez, the FDA,DOD, and Navy guidance on to-bacco and e-cigarettes all highlightone thing: potential health andsafety risks.For more information about thedangers of e-cigarettes and how toquit, visit:http://www.med.navy.mil/sites/nm-cphc/Documents/health-promotion-wellness/tobacco-free-living/Frequent_Questions_about_Electronic_Cigarettes_March_2013.pdf

In the spring of 1942, a Japanesesubmarine surfaced near the coastof Southern California and firedshells that exploded near the LosPadres National Forest.Americans were shocked that thewar had been brought directly tothe U.S. mainland, and theyfeared that enemy shells couldset off raging forest fires alongthe West Coast. Protection offorests from uncontrolled firebecame a matter of national im-portance. A campaign featuring SmokeyBear was born two years later tourge people to be more carefulabout preventing forest fires.Dressed in a ranger’s hat,belted blue jeans and carrying ashovel, Smokey became an in-stant success.In the spring of 1950, in theCapitan Mountains of New Mex-ico, a young black bear cub foundhimself caught in the Capitan Gapfire, a wildfire that burned 17,000acres (about 69-square kilometers)in the Lincoln National Forest. The frightened bear took refuge ina tree, and while managing to stayalive was badly burned. The firefighters

who retrieved him – a group of soldiersfrom Fort Bliss, Texas, who were help-

ing to fight the fire – were somoved by his bravery, they namedhim Smokey and brought the

scared, injured bear back to theircamp.A local ranger and his family caredfor the little bear cub until he wasnursed back to health.News about the brave littlebear named Smokey soonspread across the nation, andafter he was healed, he wassoon on his way to a newhome at the National Zoo in

Washington, D.C. When Smokey arrived at the

National Zoo, several hundredspectators were there to welcomehim to his new homeSmokey lived at the National Zoofor 26 years. During that time hereceived millions of visitors and somany letters that in 1964 theUnited States Postal Service gave

him his own zip code, anhonor that is shared by onlyone other person: The presi-dent of the United States. Smokey died on Nov. 9,

1976, and was returned toCapitan, New Mexico, where he

is buried in the State Historical Park.

MORE BASE NOTES

The award of the new modernization contract forelectronic health records is a great opportunity to“save money, save time, and most importantly, savelives,” Christopher A. Miller, the Defense HealthcareManagement Systems program executive officer saidon July 29.In a culmination of a more than two-year effort, theDefense Department today awarded a $4.3 billion con-tract to Leidos, Inc. Now begins the hard part: Puttingthe contract in place, Miller said.The new contract will cover more than 9.5 million De-fense Department beneficiaries and the more than205,000 care providers that support them.The contract will improve current interoperabilityamong the DoD, the VA and private sector health-careproviders and enable each to access and update healthrecords. The contract is based on protocols establishedby the Office of the National Coordinator for Health ITand the DoD/VA interagency program office.The DoD and the VA are interoperable now, said Un-dersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology andLogistics Frank Kendall, but this contract ensures itwill continue by including future software upgrades.Training is also included in the contract, he said.“The trick … in getting a business system fielded isn’tabout the product you’re buying, it’s about the training,the preparation of your people, it’s about minimizing thechanges to the software that you’re buying,” Kendallsaid. “We’ve done a lot of work to ensure that our users… are prepared to take on this product and use it.”The next step in fielding the system is to test the soft-ware to ensure it is secure and does what is needed.The contractor will begin fielding the system at eightlocations in the Pacific Northwest covering each of theservices late next year. Ultimately, the system will befielded at more than 1,000 locations worldwide. Thecost over 18 years was placed at $11 billion, but newfigures suggest the ultimate cost will be below $9 bil-lion, Kendall said.Dr. Jonathan Woodson, assistant secretary of defensefor health affairs, called electronic health records “acritical enabler for supporting and maintaining medicalreadiness” around the world.The new system is global and must operate in remoteplaces like Afghanistan, in addition to DoD’s 55 hospi-tals and more than 600 clinics, Woodson said.“Even apart from the wartime requirements, the pa-tients we serve are frequently on the move, as are ourcaregivers, so it is very important to have a highly inte-grated system that is portable to serve the needs wher-ever they may be required,” he said.“Today is not just about picking a software vendor,”Miller said. “Today is really about making sure we pro-vide the right team that will provide the services and allthose things that are necessary to meet our objectives.”Nevertheless, the department is sensitive to potentialvendor lock situations. To mitigate this risk, the gov-ernment negotiated specific rights to the software andtechnical data that will allow future contractors accessto operate or sustain the system, Miller said.Building the new system will be complicated, Woodsonnoted, adding that implementing it does not simplymean turning off one system and turning on another.The new system will replace up to 50 legacy systemsand there is a transition plan for each one of those sys-tems, Miller said.“You can’t just take away the old [system] and drive inthe new one,” Kendall said. “You have to provide healthcare continuously: you cannot stop. You have to keepthe old system running until the new system is ready tostep in and take over. It requires us to keep the old sys-tems running.”
