With a theme of “Working Smoke Alarms Save Lives: Test YoursEvery Month,” Fire Prevention Week runs Oct. 5-11; however, thepush for fire safety goes well beyond a mere seven days eachcalendar year, officials say.

“We want citizens to realize that this is not just about a specialweek, it is all the time–we want to raise awareness every day of theweek all year long,” said Menomonee Falls Assistant Fire Chief Jim

Mollet. “We strive to make fire safety a dailymessage.”

But for this particular week–established by theNational Fire Protection Association (NFPA) in1922 to commemorate the Great Chicago Firewhich began Oct. 8, 1871–fire safety becomes the“hot” topic.

“During that period we try to visit everyeducational institution in the village and focus onproper exit routines and teach things like what todo if your clothes catch fire,” said Mollet. “Today

more than ever before, with new products out thereand more electronics in the home, the dangers are there.”

The danger in 1871, legend has it, was Catherine O'Leary’s cowwhich kicked over a lamp and set the family barn, and eventually thewhole city of Chicago, on fire. According to the NFPA website, the

incident killed morethan 250 people, left100,000 homeless,destroyed more than17,400 structuresand burned morethan 2,000 acres.

As if this wasn’tbad enough, thePeshtigo Fire–whichoccurred the exactsame day–left farmore wreckage in itswake. The most devastating forest fire in American history, thenortheast Wisconsin blaze killed 1,152 people, burned down 16towns and destroyed 1.2 million acres.

It is precisely these horrific numbers that make fire safety anessential lifestyle.

“What this week is designed to do is remind everyone that evena little fire can get out of control and cause tremendous damage,”said Germantown Fire Chief Gary Weiss. “We start the message inthe grade schools because it is so crucial to get into the habit of firesafety at a young age and keep it as a habit for the rest of your life.”

Although tragic, these two great blazes brought about the hugepositive of fire safety as a mainstream message.

Falls Teen Earns Eagle Scout Ranking with Project at Local Church


When Nick Wagner started brainstorming ideasfor his Eagle Scout project, he knew exactly wherehe would focus his efforts.

“I knew that I wanted to give back to theLutheran Church of The Prince of Peace inMenomonee Falls,” explained the 17-year-oldingoing senior at Menomonee Falls High School.“They have been generous hosts to my troop (BoyScout Troop 109) for many years so a project tobenefit them seemed like a great way to say thankyou.”

Nick reached out to church leaders and was informed that theiryouth group would love an outdoor fire pit with bench seating.

“This sounded like an exciting, useful, and lasting project, whichis what led me to select it,” he said.

The Scout took on the challenge one step at a time, learning somevery useful lessons along the way.

“Throughout my project, I was faced with situations that requiredproblem-solving and continuous planning/communication,” he said.“I learned the importance of always taking charge of the situation,even when there are professionals involved. Additionally, aneffective leader should trust, but verify. Even with the bestintentions, people may inadvertently work against each other ifcareful leadership is not employed.”

Due to some honest miscalculations, the project, for all practicalpurposes, had to be done twice. It was first “completed” in thesummer of 2012, and for the second and final time earlier this year.

“After digging the post holes, it slipped my mind to tamp downthe dirt at the bottom,” Nick humbly acknowledged. “Further, I didnot know that one should have a layer of stone/gravel at the bottomof the hole before pouring concrete. These two slip-ups led tosomewhat severe settling, which in turn led to another summer ofwork.”

However, Nick viewed the re-do as a growth opportunity ratherthan a setback. “I am most proud of the fact that we did the projecttwice,” he said.

Another highlight was during the final work day, Nick shared.“After running into one difficulty after another that morning, and

the chances of finishing the project that weekend looking dim, itwas incredibly rewarding to see my volunteers rally and finishstrong,” he said. “Though I never had expected to essentiallycomplete this project twice, I am extremely pleased with the finalresult.”

In total, 271 hours–volunteered by Scouts from Nick’s troop andadult Scout leaders both his and other troops–went into the project.

“Overall, I received help from 51 different people,” the Scout

said.With an initial budget prediction of $1,600, Nick

ended up receiving $2,500 in donations–along withdonations of materials and equipment–after reachingout to friends and family with a letter explaining hisproject.

“I was amazed by the generosity I encountered,even from store owners whom I had never met, andI would encourage future Scouts to remember thatmany people may be willing to donate or offer youdiscounts towards your Eagle Project,” he said.

Nick–who lives in the village with parents Jimand Terri and sister Rebecca, who will be a junior atthe same high school–has been involved in Scouting

since first grade.“Being a Scout has offered me so many leadership development

opportunities,” he said. “I've also become comfortable with publicspeaking, and of course I have learned countless outdoor skills aswell.”

Scouting has been just one of the many achievements andinterests in the well-rounded teen’s life.

The straight-A student–who has played piano sincekindergarten–is also president of Amnesty International andNational Honor Society and a member of Future Business Leadersof America and the Spanish Honor Society. He has been on thevarsity downhill ski racing team since freshman year and joined therock climbing team during his junior year. As a sophomore heattended Conserve School, a one-semester longOutdoors/Environmentally focused enrichment boarding school inNorthern Wisconsin.

As he looks ahead toa bright future, Nick willtake with him a lifetimeof Scouting and theknowledge that heearned the highest BoyScout rank with a jobwell done.

“Though my projectwound up being a lotmore involved than Ihad expected, I didmanage to enjoy it,” hesaid. “It will be a long-lasting facility that canbe used and appreciatedfor many years, and Icould not be more proudof it.”

(Family Features) Formany families, clothingrepresents the largest share ofback-to-school expenseseach year. The amount ofmoney that goes into a newschool wardrobe paired withthe reality that kids tend to becareless about their stainedclothing can be daunting, butwith proper care, you cantake steps to better protectyour investment.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately $8.5 billionwas spent in family clothing stores in August 2012, the latest dataavailable. This compares to approximately $2 billion spent inbookstores during the same timeframe, highlighting the significantinvestment families make in new clothing to send kids back-to-school in style.

You can keep your family's clothes in tip-top shape year-round byfollowing the advice of the maker of OxiClean(tm):

• Start fresh. New clothes, especially those that are deeply hued,are notorious for bleeding dye during their initial washings. Protectnew garments, and old ones too, by grouping like-colored new itemsand washing them according to tag instructions. Even clothing thatis not at risk of bleeding should be washed before wearing to removeany potential irritants and germs accumulated through handling onstore racks.

Take pre-wash precautions. Give clothing a quick scan beforetossing it in the washer to identify and pretreat any stains beforethey've been washed, dried and set into the fabric. Also checkpockets for any overlooked items. Shredding tissue or a leaking pencan lead to more time spent washing and cleaning clothes.

• Help keep clothes looking like new longer. Kids' clothes attractstains like honey attracts bees. With a quality detergent, you cankeep your whites bright and colors vibrant while fighting eventough, dried-on stains. For getting rid of stains such as grass, soil,chocolate and tomato sauce, try OxiClean(tm) Laundry Detergentin liquid, single-dose paks or powder. It combines powerful, color-safe OxiClean stain fighters, whiteners and a long-lasting fresh scentto deep-clean and freshen your whole wash.

• Sort and learn. Get the kids involved after school or on theweekends and invite them to help out with simple, age-appropriatelaundry tasks. Have them help sort clothes by colors or match pairsof socks when they come out of the dryer.

• Share the load. Most families have a fairly consistent way ofgrouping loads of laundry–whites, darks, linens and so on. Make alist of your most common loads and instructions for handling each,and post it in your laundry room so others can help when the needarises. Be sure to include details such as the proper detergents andpre-treaters to use and settings for temperature and cycle for both thewasher and dryer. As safety is first, always triple-check that alldetergents are out of reach of children.

Squeaky Clean Tips:Care for your family's back-to-school wardrobe

On the 40th anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire, the FireMarshals Association of North America (now known as theInternational Fire Marshals Association) decided to start observingthe tragedy in a way that drives home the importance of fireprevention, and according to the National Archives and RecordsAdministration's Library Information Center, Fire Prevention Weekis the longest running public health and safety observance on record.The week is observed on the Sunday through Saturday period inwhich Oct. 9 falls and each year has a specific area of focus.

“This year we are really emphasizing the importance of havingworking smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in thehouse–one of every floor of the home and one in every bedroom,”said John Delain, public education coordinator for the GermantownFire Department.

Delain went on to offer a few useful tips: change the batteriesevery Daylight Savings time; clean the detectors with a vacuum orcanned air once per month; and test them regularly.

“It’s very important to make sure the detectors are working at alltimes,” he said.

In conjunction with the Safe Kids Coalition of SoutheastWisconsin and Domino’s Pizza, the department is running a programcalled “Delivering Fire Safety.”

On Oct. 23, several pre-registered participants (registration formswill be available at the Safety Fair as well as on Domino’s boxes)will receive a “surprise” visit from village firefighters. Those whohave working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors will receive afree large, one-topping pizza and those who do not will receive aworking smoke detector.

“We will go and check their house and teach them about fire andcarbon monoxide safety while we are there,” said Delain. “It’s justanother way to get the word out to the community.”

Area events include:• Germantown Fire Safety Fair–Saturday, Oct. 4, 10:30 a.m. to

3:30 p.m., at Fire Station #2, N115 W18752 Edison Drive. The eventwill include a variety of children’s and family activities, including aSparky Bounce House, a visit by Flight for Life, a display of firetrucks and the Survive Alive House. Food and beverages will beavailable for purchase.

(Family Features) Thanks to a provision in the Patient Protectionand Affordable Care Act, efforts are underway to streamlinelicensing for medications known as "biosimilars," which aresimilar–but not identical–to cutting-edge biologic medicines.However, the development has some concerned about patient safety,especially among older Americans who tend to suffer from morechronic diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.

According to the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration (FDA), a biosimilar is highly similarto a U.S.-licensed biological product (a wide rangeof items including vaccines, blood and bloodcomponents, allergenics, somatic cells, gene therapy,tissues and proteins) that may have minor differencesin clinically inactive components, but (supposedly)no clinically meaningful differences in terms of thesafety, purity and potency. This is difficult to ensurebecause both biologics and biosimilars are derivedfrom complex living organisms. Even differentproduction facilities, shipping, or storage couldcreate meaningful differences.

Again, biosimilars are highly similar but notidentical to their biologic originator and should notbe confused with generics. Generic medicines aretraditional pharmaceutical medicines and have thesame exact active ingredient as their originator; therefore patientscan be switched easily from one to the other with the same outcome.However, it is possible that a biologic and a nearly identicalbiosimilar could have different reactions for the same patient.

A few weeks ago the FDA accepted the first application for a

biosimilar, yet they have not released the safety standards, underwhich a biosimilar will be approved, an important step towardlicensing these medicines for sale in the U.S. market.

With this important step on the horizon, some groups are focusedon the importance of patient safeguards for biosimilar medications.RetireSafe, a leading grassroots organization advocating on behalfof America's seniors, recently commissioned a survey on the issue.

"When it comes tonew biosimilar drugs,people are rightlyconcerned and want tokeep their drugs safe andeffective," said ThairPhillips, RetireSafepresident. "A series ofc o m m o n - s e n s esafeguards around newmedicines in the form ofa 'Safe Medicines Bill ofRights' will help protectvulnerable patients, inparticular olderAmericans whose healthneeds make them

especially reliant on prescription medications."The RetireSafe survey found several significant gaps in

knowledge and understanding among consumers, particularlyregarding the relationship between biosimilars and generics, andhow substitutions may be handled.

The survey also found overwhelming support for a strong set ofpatient safeguards:

• 92 percent supported a requirement that drug companies test thesafety of biosimilars for all conditions the drug will be used to treat.

• 86 percent wanted a requirement that human clinical trials beconducted to ensure a given biosimilar is safe.

• 90 percent supported a requirement that the name of thebiosimilar be different than the original biologic medicine to allowfor adequate tracking of any adverse reactions.

• 91 percent want physicians be notified when a biosimilar issubstituted for the original biologic drug they prescribed for theirpatient.

• 94 percent believe that patients should be notified when abiosimilar is substituted for the original drug prescribed by theirdoctor.

(Family Features) A day in the classroom, playing out on thefield after school, and completing homework at night requiresthe right foods to fuel such activities. But unhealthy choices lurkaround every corner, making the task of getting kids to eat abalanced and healthful diet a daunting one.

"Junk food is winning the war on grabbing the attentionof Americans, particularly our kids," said Jeff Dunn,president and CEO of Bolthouse Farms. "Our hope is todrive a lasting love of better-for-you foods that kids want toeat and moms can feel good about."

Snack time tipsHere are some tips to help you keep your kitchen stocked

with the best foods for fueling little learners.• Look for easy options: Every busy parent knows that

getting more fruits and vegetables into their kid's diet isn'teasy - and spending an evening chopping up snacks maynot be an option. Luckily, new products are popping up inthe refrigerated section at the local store targetedspecifically for kids. Skip the chips and grab fresh veggieswith Bolthouse Farms Kids(tm) Veggie Snackers,individual-sized bags of baby carrots in two flavorfulvarieties.

• Keep healthy options on hand: Make smart snackingeasy by always having better-for-you food choices readilyavailable and easy for even the youngest eaters to servethemselves. For example, place a bowl filled with bananas,

oranges and apples at the kitchen table for an easy-to-grab snackthe whole family can enjoy.

• Send them off with sensible sweets: It's easy to swap junkfood sweets with other choices that allow kids to still enjoy theirfavorite flavors. For an on-the-go treat perfect for breakfast and

beyond, pack a creamy and flavorful drink, such as the BolthouseFarms Kids(tm) Smoothies. These portable, kid-sized smoothiesserve up 1 1/2 servings of fruit per 6-ounce bottle, and areavailable in two delicious flavors.

• Practice proper portions: When packing a lunch or snack,always follow recommended serving guidelines and place onlythat amount in a re-sealable baggie or lunchbox. This will helpchildren understand portion control at an early age.

• Pump up the play factor: Creative moms know that gettingkids to eat better often requires a little inventive thought. Whetheryou call broccoli florets "trees" or cut up other fruits and veggiesinto fun shapes, children are more receptive to playful snacking.Many new products exist that take nutritious ingredients to a fun-filled level, such as the Bolthouse Farms Kids(tm) Fruit Tubes.Available in three sweet flavors, these squeezable tubes are filledwith fruit puree blends that can be chilled or frozen for a delicioustreat.

Follow these tips to properly fuel your student and they'll learnnutrition essentials for a healthier future. For more ideas to getyour kids to eat better, visit www.bolthousefarms.com.

Embrace the Outdoors With Your Canine CompanionPet owners love their

four-legged friends. Infact, many are considereda part of the family.However, one thing thatdog and cat lovers hate arethe fleas that ultimatelyfind their way onto theirbeloved pet and into thehome.

"Protecting your dogfrom fleas is an importantpart of responsible petcare," says Caryn Stichler,vice president ofmarketing for Sergeant'sPet Care Products. "Fleascause distress for pets, andcan cause a conditioncalled Flea AllergyDermatitis."

Fleas, which can liveboth inside and outside ofthe home, can transmittapeworms to animals, andtheir bites commonlycause skin irritation anditching. In fact, if you seeyour pet twisting intopretzle-like shapes tryingto scratch certain bodyparts, chances are theyhave an allergy to thesaliva of fleas–or flea allergy dermatitis.

The best approach to managing an infestation is prevention.Giving your pet frequent baths, regularly cleaning your pet'sbedding and vacuuming furniture, rugs and floors will help breakthe flea's life cycle.

"It is important to start treatment before there is a fleaproblem," says Stichler. "One or two fleas can quickly becomehundreds of fleas on your pet, so treating fleas fast is important."

If your pet has flea problems, you may want to considertreating your pet with an over-the-counter solution. For those pet

owners seeking an alternative to topical flea medication, oraltablets such as FastCaps (nitenpyram), from the makers ofPetArmor, is the solution.

FastCaps contain nitenpyram, the same veterinarian-recommended active ingredient found in Capstar (nitenpyram),and begins working in 30 minutes to kill adult fleas on your pet.The fast-acting oral tablet, which can be found at discountretailers, works for dogs and cats that are two pounds or greaterand four weeks of age or older.

To learn more about FastCaps, visit www.petarmor.com.

supply kit can be found at www.fema.gov. Portable vs. Standby Generators"Beyond preparing an emergency kit, purchasing a portable generator or

installing a standby generator is the simplest way to keep the power on and

ensure a family stays safe when a strong storm or other emergency knocksutility power offline," Grandy said. "Understanding the distinction betweenthese options will help any family determine which is the better choice fortheir home."

• Aportable generator is an immediate, but temporary, solution. Aportablegas generator is less expensive than a standby unit and doesn't requireinstallation time. Its benefits have limits, as it can only power a few homeappliances for a few hours before needing refueling.

• A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch provides aseamless and permanent backup power solution. It is professionally installedoutside the home and can power more of your home's appliances for longperiods of time. Powered by natural gas or liquid propane, recent powermanagement technology has allowed homes to still receive whole-housebackup electricity, but with a smaller, more affordable generator than in yearspast.

With an emergency kit on hand and the right backup power sourceavailable, the frustration of weathering a storm can be greatly lessened. Visitwww.briggsandstratton.com to learn more about backup power options.

(Family Features) Americans who have recently endured a prolongedpower outage at home are much more likely to improve their family'semergency preparation for the future, according to a recent report.

A 2014 survey conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of Briggs & Strattonfound almost one in four U.S. adults had endured a power outage lasting 12hours or more in the last two years. That experience motivated two-thirds ofrespondents to be more prepared for future incidents, according to the survey.

"The high percentage of respondents who took action to better preparetheir families and homes for future emergency situations really underscoresthe level of frustration a power outage can cause families who aren't properlyprepared," said Amanda Grandy, with Briggs & Stratton.

Your Preparedness Checklist: Planning AheadWhen you have advance warning of a potential loss of power, which

is often caused by a strong weather system, there are many steps familiescan take to minimize the stress it can cause. The Federal EmergencyManagement Agency (FEMA) recommends that you create an emergencypreparedness plan with a checklist of items:

• Make sure your gas tank is full• Fill plastic bags with water and place them in the freezer• Stop by the bank to ensure you have some cash on hand• Fill prescriptions that are approaching their refill dateDisasters, however, don't always come with prior notice, so having an

emergency kit prepared ahead of time is the surest way to protect yourfamily. Be sure to include items such as:

• A three-day supply of non-perishable food

(Family Features) There's no time like fall to experiment with newrecipes, especially those savory and sweet comfort dishes that highlightthe season's favorite fruit–apples. Delicious when spread over a warm sliceof fresh-baked bread, apple butter is also an unexpected but ideal ingredientfor creating rich flavors in baked, cooked and grilled dishes that addwarmth to any meal.

Traditional apple butter is made by simmering apples long and slow inkettles with sugar, apple cider and spices. This classic Pennsylvania Dutchspread is essentially a concentrated, spiced apple sauce and contains nodairy butter. The classic brown color reflects the apples' sugar caramelizingduring the slow cooking process.

While apple butter makes an excellent spread, with up to 70 percentfewer calories than peanut butter and traditional dairy butter, it's also aneasy way to instantly introduce fall flavors into your favorite dishes,whether dinner or dessert.

Bring the flavors of fall to your table with these simple, homestylerecipes. One blends the spicy notes of apple butter with pork in a simple,comforting crock pot dinner. The other offers a sweet apple-infused twiston traditional pecan rolls–made even easier with Musselman's AppleButter–which is made the old-fashioned way for perfect texture and taste.It's never been easier to whip up comfort cuisine right in your own kitchen.

In many parts of the country, the leaves havestarted to fall, and parents have sent their childrenback to school. Before the weather takes a turn,Firestone Complete Auto Care would like tooffer the following car maintenance tips to getvehicles ready for the damp, cold road ahead.

• Take your vehicle for a full check up. As thefall weather rolls in, it's important to have thefollowing items checked by a professional:battery cables and terminals, belts and hoses, airfilters, windshield wipers and all fluids, includinganti-freeze, oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid,automatic transmission fluid and windshieldwasher fluid.

• Take a good look at your tires. Are theresigns of uneven tread wear? That could indicateunder-inflation, unbalanced tires or misalignedwheels. Remember to check your tire pressurewith a gauge at least once a month and regularlyinspect the tread depth. Your tread will be even more importantduring the autumn months when wet, dead leaves cover theroadways.

• Take care of your lights and turn signals. Fall, along with lessfavorable weather, also means it's time to turn the clocks back fordaylight savings. With a shorter day comes a longer night, so be sureyour headlights, taillights and turn signals are in proper workingorder and shining at the appropriate levels.

• Talk to your teenager. Have a teenager in the house? Worriedabout all the driving they will be doing during the fall? You can't

teen-proof your neighborhood, but you can talk to your teen aboutsafe driving before they head to school. Teens Drive Smart, a teendriver safety initiative from Bridgestone Americas, the parentcompany to Bridgestone Retail Operations, LLC, which owns andoperates Firestone Complete Auto Care, has tips and resources forparents to help start a conversation with their teens about smartdriving. Visit www.TeensDriveSmart.com for more information.

Remember, not only can taking these small steps keep yourvehicle running newer, longer, but they can also help keep you andyour family safe on the road.
