Winter Fun in the Sun
Winter is here and that means it is time to pull out the sweaters... and the sunscreen! Yes sunscreen. Outdoor fun activities such as skiing, ice skating and sledding can be fun, but it is important to protect your skin from the bitter cold, heavy winds and winer sun. (©RF/NOVA)

A 'GROWING PROBLEM'
Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic drawing of the “Vitruvian Man,” along with the accompanying text, is sometimes called “Proportions of Man.” Created around the year 1492 as a scientific study of the proportions of the male human body, his artwork probably would look different if redone today, as the “proportions of man” (and woman) have changed over the years.

CV-22
"It seems like every time I tell someone that I fly in CV-22s, they still have that bad taste in their mouth, because it had a shaky history in the development stages. But it’s a safe aircraft."

CV-22 flight engineer

PGU 28A/B 20mm cannon round
The more aerodynamic, higher velocity PGU 28A/B 20mm cannon round replaced the M56 round long used by F-16 Fighting Falcon pilots. The new ammo allows for higher velocity, a greater standoff distance and increased safety for pilots, all contributing to greater effectiveness while providing close-air support. Its use Feb. 26 against insurgents east of Baghdad, Iraq, marked the first in battle for Air Force F-16 pilots.

TEARS FOR CHLOE
Keeping Children Safe from Poisoning
1. Keep all household products and medicines locked up, out of sight and out of reach.
2. Use child-resistant packaging properly by closing the container securely after each use or choose child-resistant unit packaging, which does not need to be re-secured.
3. Call 1-800-222-1222 immediately in case of poisoning.
4. When products are in use, keep children in your sight, even if you must take them along when answering the phone or doorbell.
5. Keep items in original containers.
6. Leave the original labels on all products, and read the label before using.
7. Do not put decorative lamps and candles that contain lamp oil where children can reach them. Lamp oil can be very toxic if ingested by young children.
8. Always turn the light on when giving or taking medicine so you can see what you are taking. Check the dosage every time.
9. Avoid taking medicine in front of children.
10. Clean out the medicine cabinet periodically and safely dispose of unneeded and outdated medicines.
