Naval Air Station (NAS) Sigonella Honor Guardalong with other service members gathered at theCatania War Cemetery with Catania Faro Biscari

Lions Club officials, Italian children from a local elemen-tary school, and local military and civilian authorities tohonor those lost in the Nasiriyah, Iraq terrorist attack du-ring a special ceremony, November 10.

Volunteers had the opportunity to participate and re-member the 19 Carabinieri policemen who died in the ter-rorist bombing. NAS Sigonella Honor Guard member,Tech. Sgt. Jerred Mitchell said, “To be a part of this memo-rial is very humbling to me. We’re all in this together and itgives me great respect to be here to do this event.”

The attack, which took place in 2003, was Italy’s hea-viest military loss since World War II. The attack also left

nine Iraqi civilians dead and more than a hundred peopleinjured.

The memorial also remembered those lost in variousbattles which took place in Sicily during World War II.

“This is the seventh edition of the memorial,” CataniaLions Club President Alberto Robelli said. “There are tworeasons we’ve been doing this since 2005. The first one is toremember all of the soldiers who have fallen during the warsin particularly World War II. Secondly, we have kids from aCatania elementary school here to teach them about historyand why our history in [World War II] is important.”

As a local citizen of Sicily, Retired British Army Maj.Allen Batty was tasked with laying the wreath during theceremony, read a poem about what a soldier is and does,and gave the exhortation or act of remembrance.

Supporters for the memorial and cemetery includingBatty believe it’s a great thing to have service members fromNAS Sigonella join with them on a day they remember.

“What delights me is to see so much interest in the ce-metery,” Batty said. “Certainly until we got support from[NAS] Sigonella in 2005, there wasn’t a great deal goingon at all.”

NAS Sigonella service members who attended the me-morial agree with Batty, and said it was very important forthe base to be represented at the event because it shows ourItalians neighbors that NAS Sigonella offers support.

“We’re here today to support our local nationals and ourBritish allies,” Mitchell said. “This memorial is for all threecountries. We’re respecting the fallen that fought in [WorldWar II] in Sicily and those killed in the [Nasiriyah] attack.”

I hope everyone had a safe and enjoya-ble Veteran’s Day. I can’t express my thanksenough for what you do. We are able toserve by the sacrifices of those before usand for all those who currently serve. Wecould not do what we do without the sup-port of our military families. Thank you Si-gonella for your service and the sacrificesyou and your family make to ensure the sa-fety and freedoms of our country.

Special thanks go to the NASSIGSafety Department for coordinatingand putting on this year’s Holiday SafetyStanddown. I hope that everyone tookaway some useful information thatwill help you make our holiday season asafe one.

Thanks for the questions received du-ring Feedback Live. We want to make surethat we answer all your questions and con-cerns, so I’ll answer a few more of them inthis Direct Line.

QI know the recycling issue has comeup in the past, but when walking

around base, there are no recycling optionsaround the most popular areas on base(Midtown, NEX, etc.) I know out in town,they have the all-in-one trash cans that giveyou the option of separating garbage from

plastics, paper and aluminum. Is it possiblefor the base to have those available in hightraffic areas?

AYour question is an excellent one. Si-gonella is currently developing a Qua-

lified Recycling Program that will help tocorrect this problem. Recycling bins weremistakenly removed from certain high traf-fic areas last year and NAVFAC is workingwith the Base Support Contractor to ob-tain and place new ones in selected areas.Currently, there are large recycle bins in theNEX/Commissary Parking Lot availablefor drop off. As with any program, we canonly be successful if the recycle bins areutilized properly by all. Recycling is man-datory in Italy and the Base is working to-ward a better program.

QIs it possible to put a few exercisemachines in the old CD/Tween

Center in Marinai for adults to use?

AMWR is operating two fully mannedFitness Centers here is Sigonella with

state of the art equipment and more goodthings on the way including renovation andmore new equipment. The Navy's approachto fitness is to run concentrated, high qua-lity facilities with professional staff, equip-ment and programs to serve our customers.

Also, the Navy has strict regulations gover-ning unmanned fitness areas and Marinaiwould not meet those requirements.

I just returned from a week of leave andcannot begin to tell you how important itis to utilize the leave you receive each year.Take advantage of the CO’s liberty policyand the Environmental Morale Leave pro-grams as defined in NASSIGINST4630.5H. Enjoy the holiday but keep it safeand stay classy Sigonella.

Service and community members from Naval AirStation (NAS) Sigonella and United States Air Force(USAF) Global Hawk Detachment gathered at theflight line on NAS II for a ribbon cutting ceremony of-ficially declaring a new hangar bay for the GlobalHawk Detachment fully operational, November 8.

“I want to extend my thanks to all the amazingfolks that put an amazing product together on timeand made our transition painless,” USAF GlobalHawk Detachment, Commanding Officer, Lt. Col.Paul Wojtowicz said.

Air Force members said it has been a very fast pro-cess changing facilities; however, they are excitedabout having a new home on the flight line.

“This building represents the commitment of theUnited States Air Force,” Wojtowicz said. “We’re al-ways looking into the future and always looking to seewhat capabilities for the Global Hawk program aregoing to be at some point in time.”

The new hangar bay took three and a half yearsfrom blueprint design to construction completionuntil it was declared operational by the USAF, NASSigonella and Italian Air Force 41st Stormo.

“With any big construction there were some littlethings that would hold up the process,” Former SiteManager Andrew Audette said. “However, I think theteam worked very well getting the problems resolved.They did a great job and I look forward to the teamdoing great things from this facility.”

Airmen said they are very grateful for NAS Sigo-nella hosting them in hangar bays 630 and 633, butare also ready to begin operations with a new roof overtheir heads.

“We have an amazing building now,” Wojtowiczsaid. “However, it doesn’t matter if we were in a 30million dollar hangar or a tent; we are going to accom-plish our mission 365 days, 24/7. That’s what thenation expects of us.”

You may have heard of the eleva-tor speech, that targeted 30 second-two minute dialogue that allows youto market yourself and all you have tooffer to a potential employer and/ornetworking contact. How to effecti-vely utilize this speech is very usefulinformation for job-seekers who wishto engage others, expand their net-work and constructively communi-cate with potential job-searchenhancing contacts. There are manytheories as to where the term “eleva-tor speech” originates, ranging fromthe idea that we often run into impor-tant people in elevators to the expla-nation that the elevator speech is aclear, concise bit of communicationthat can be delivered in as shortamount of time as it takes for a personto ride from the bottom to the top ofa building in an elevator.

Regardless of where the termcame from, the elevator speech is anexceptionally useful and versatile toolin a variety of situations:

• Job/Career Fairs and events de-signed specifically for networking.

• Informal networking oppor-tunities we encounter almost daily,including kids' football games, tal-king to people while flying on aplane, waiting in line to pay for gro-ceries or buy tickets for the movies,and so on.

• Cold calls to employers whendoing informational interviewing fora job search

• Opportunities within your cur-rent job to talk with superiors in orderto inform them of the quality of workyou’re performing and discuss possi-ble promotion.

• Job interviews, where the eleva-tor speech can help provide the an-swer to at least two commoninterview questions: "Tell me aboutyourself " and "Why should I hireyou?"

In order to get comfortable withthe elevator speech, it’s helpful topractice it frequently, whether with afriend or even in front of a mirror. Theelevator speech can help you initiatedialogue in a multitude of situationswhere effective networking is key toyour job search success. The key is tomake your introduction so interestingand engaging that people will want tospend more time talking with you andlearning about you. The followingexample can get you started practi-cing a productive elevator speech andprepare you for your next opportu-nity to network:

Hi, my name is ___________.I'm in the _______________field, and I'm looking to__(find em-ployment as a… or Expand my pro-fessional network or learn more about

the _____profession, etc.)_____. Ihave _________ years of expe-rience as a_______. My educationand training have prepared me for__________. In my work, Ihave_(give examples of what you areexperienced doing/specific examplesof your accomplishments)___. I fir-mly believe my skills and experiencecould benefit you (or your company)in the following ways __________.I am eager to ___________ and ap-preciate the opportunity to learnmore about ____________.

Don’t fall into the trap of compo-sing an elevator speech that inspiresthe thought "so what?" in the listener.You can avoid this pitfall by adding anelement of intrigue, essentially hoo-king your listener by effectively incor-porating your Unique SellingPoint(s). By doing so, you will morelikely be successful in captivating yourtarget audience. What makes you uni-que? What can you say to make yourspeech truly matter? Putting thoughtinto your elevator speech can make asignificant difference in whether it isimpressive and effectual or a com-plete dud.

Wine from northern Italy ranges from Barolo, Barbaresco and Barbera toValpolicella and Amarone. (Photo by AP)

Italy looks like one country on the map, but is actually an amalgam of20 very different regions.

So, the phrase “northern Italian restaurant” is an incomplete descrip-tion, as there are eight regions up there, and four are important to the worldof wine.

You may have heard northern Italian used to describe a restaurant thatdoesn’t serve tomato sauce on every dish. This is the central issue regardingthe northern regions — the ingredients and grapes are different from whata lot of Americans expect in “Italian” cuisine.

Rather than tomatoes, garlic and olive oil, true northern Italians usebutter, cream, onions, potatoes and softer herbs such as basil.

It is largely a white-wine zone, although there are some important redwines from there. Piedmont (Piemonte) produces some of the most im-portant reds in the wine world.

Barolo and Barbaresco are towns that lend their names to two noblereds made from the nebbiolo grape.

As for food recommendations, Piemontese cuisine tends toward ri-chness, with truffles, cream and meaty dishes. The higher acid levels of neb-biolo-based wines work well to cut through the richness.

Speaking of high-acid wines, the third “B” of Piedmont is Barbera,which in this case is the name of the grape. You will see Barbera d’Asti orBarbera d’Alba labels from the towns of Asti and Alba.

Barberas are lighter than Barolo and Barbaresco, and easier on the wal-let. They might not have the weight to pair with rich meat meals, but theyare a great complement to many pastas, poultry and lighter veal or pork di-shes. The last of the reds from Piedmont is Dolcetto. It is the simplest redfrom the region, and should be consumed while young and fresh. It’s a greatlunch wine.

Let’s swing over to Veneto, home to some very different wines. You’veheard of at least two of them: prosecco and valpolicella.

Prosecco is one of the most popular sparkling wines in the United Statesthese days. From the Glera grape, it is made in the Charmat Process wherethe carbonating fermentation takes place in a tank, rather than the Cham-pagne Method in the bottle. This leads to a simpler wine, which is fine.

Prosecco is great with light appetizers and alone as an aperitif, but doe-sn’t have the weight or complexity to keep up with most main courses.

On to Veneto reds. The two best-known are Valpolicella and Amarone,made from three grapes: Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara. You might re-member trying to impress a date with the most expensive wine at your localspaghetti parlor when you were young. It was Bolla Valpolicella, around $18.

Luckily for you, this is the very definition of “spaghetti red.” Its lightnessand bright acidity are perfect for tomato sauce. It also lends itself to lightmeat dishes and richer fish dishes.

Attend the "Sagra della Cassatella" (Cassatella Festival) in Agira, a picturesque town nestled on top of a hill inthe Enna province. This annual family-oriented event celebrates the town's specialty, a mouthwatering half-moonshaped pastry filled with almonds, chickpea flour, sugar, lemon rind and sometimes cinnamon. The festival kicksoff Friday, November 16 at 5 p.m. and runs through Sunday, November 18 at the Centro Fieristico (fair center)located in via circonvallazione (southern part of the town). On November 17 and 18, festival grounds will openat 10 a.m.

As reported by www.cassatella.com, the Agira’s cassatella is a cake with a very ancient origin, an essential ele-ment of the traditional Agira’s cuisine. It is difficult to document the history of casatella because there are no writ-ten sources about it. In its earliest version it was known as “pasticciotto,” and had a circular shape with a buttonplaced at the top center of the disc, as if to recall another Sicilian sweet, the “minni ‘e vergine”, which is dedicatedto Saint Agatha.

Beside the picturesque townscape, the numerous baroque churches and palaces number among the sightsworth seeing in Agira. The Church of San Salvatore at the Piazza Roma and the Arab-Norman castle are especiallyworth a visit.

Festivalgoers visiting Agira should also plan a stop at the neighboring "Sicily's Fashion Village," which is re-garded as "the largest Italian and foreign top fashion brands' factory outlet in the south of Italy."

Getting to Agira is fairly easy. Exit Agira on A-19 and then drive for about 10 miles. For more informationand detailed festival schedule visit http://www.comune.agira.en.it/.

Amarone is nothing like what I just described. It’s a huge wine, powerfulenough to scare the novice oenophile. Even its full name is foreboding —Amarone Della Valpolicella, which means “big bitter one of Valpolicella.”

It is made by taking the trio of grapes after harvest and letting themdry, traditionally on straw mats. As the water in the grapes evaporates, su-gars concentrate, and when fermented, result in a richer, thicker, higheralcohol wine. While impressive, few foods can stand up to it: hefty meatdishes (like rib-eye steak) or very rich pastas. As it is almost port-like, Ama-rone actually does nicely with rich cheeses. So pasta with gorgonzola-wal-nut sauce might work well.

I’m putting the next two regions together because they produce similarstyles of wine, mostly whites.

Trentino-Alto Adige borders Austria and Friuli-Venezia Giulia bordersAustria and Slovenia. They are the source of most Italian Pinot Grigio.

While this wine can be a bit thin and insipid, there are some great exam-ples with complex aromatics, while remaining crisp and delicate. In theAlto Adige, Austrian influence can be seen in some excellent Rieslings, andthere are some truly great wines made from Ribolla Gialla. The most di-stinctive wine of Friuli is Friulano. So buy northern Italian wine to servewith real northern Italian food. Just plug the region’s name into a searchengine and add the word “cuisine.” Remember that what grows together,goes together.

(ANSA) Rome - A Chinese company has expressed interest in

the project to build a bridge over the Strait of Messina, ac-cording to Pietro Ciucci, the chief executive of the companycharged with studying the feasibility of the project.

On Friday, the government announced that it wouldnot cancel the long-awaited and controversial bridge pro-ject, which aims to connect mainland Italy with Sicily, butthat it would extend feasibility studies for another twoyears. Previously, the government had said it would shelvethe much-debated project, the brainchild of former PremierSilvio Berlusconi. During a hearing Tuesday in Italy's Se-nate, Ciucci said regarding the building of the bridge.

Ciucci did not elaborate except to say that the memo-randum "is not a contract or commitment, but it showsthere is interest in part of the market" for the bridge's reali-zation. "There is a communique' drafted after a meeting inIstanbul in which the interest in building the bridge is affir-med," Ciucci added. The 8.5-billion-euro project will notbe getting off the drawing board any time soon, however.On Monday Italian Industry Minister Corrado Passera saidthat 'the project is not yet sustainable, neither technicallynot financially'. Passera also said that he had not met withprivate Chinese investors regarding the possibility of fun-ding the stalled project. 'We have to give ourselves anothertwo years to evaluate if there are private investors intere-sted,' Passera said Monday.

(AKI)Palermo - DNA tests showed a 90% likelihood that the

skeleton exhumed from a Sicilian cemetery belongs to legen-dary bandit Salvatore Giuliano who died in 1950, Il Giornaledi Sicilia reported on Tuesday, citing local judicial sources.

The DNA match between the skeleton and Giuliano'srelations means that Sicilian prosecutors are now close toarchiving the probe they opened in 2010 into the possibilitythat someone was murdered and passed off as Giuliano, ac-cording to the sources.

The body now almost certainly Giuliano's was entom-bed 60 years ago in a cemetery in Montelepre, near Palermobut was dug up in October 2010 as part of the investigation.

Mysteriously, according to members of his family andwitnesses, Giuliano was at least 1.80 metres tall while theexhumed skeleton belongs to someone between 1.60-1.70metres.

Some historians and coroners had claimed that Giu-liano managed to escape to the United States, possibly withthe help of the mafia, and that someone else was buried inhis place, contradicting the official version that he was killedby a paramilitary police captain in the western Sicilian townof Castelvetrano on 5 July 1950.

Giuliano gained fame among his fellow Sicilians duringWorld War II when he led a group of bandits in stealingmoney for food and weapons, and became known as a kindof Robin Hood figure for allegedly aiding the poor withthe takings from his banditry. He also belonged to a sepa-ratist movement.

(ANSA) Rome - A high number of Italian graduates tend to wind

up in jobs that require no training or have nothing to dowith their field of study, the Bank of Italy said Friday. In areport from the Italian central bank, 25% of college gradsworking between 2009 and 2011 were in a field that requi-red "little or no qualifications". In Germany, the number is18%. It also found that 32.3% were working in fields thatwere completely different from their college majors. Thedata stands out in contrast to remarks last month by LaborMinister Elsa Fornero, who told young Italians looking forwork "not to be too 'choosy'," using the English word. In thesame three-year period, the employment rate for graduatesaged 25 to 34 was 75.1%. Graduates in the industrial northhad an 84.7% employment rate, while the rate was 58.6%in the south. Nearly a quarter of those graduates had a jobwith little or no qualifications. Engineering and architecturestudents were the most likely to find work in their sector,while those who studied humanities and the social scienceswere the least likely.

(Corriere della Sera)Milan-based financial police officers are executing a pre-

cautionary seizure order for real property, land and equityholdings worth €65 million. The funds and assets are con-trolled by 13 individuals, some with links to the world offashion and the Marzotto (Pietro, Paolo and Gaetano Mar-zotto’s branches are not involved) and Donà delle Rose fa-milies. The charge is failure to submit tax returns forincome, real property, land and equity holdings attributableto them.

UNDER INVESTIGATION – Under the investiga-tors’ microscope are Vittorio, Matteo, Maria Rosaria,Cristiana and Margherita Marzotto, Andrea, Isabella andRosanna Donà dalle Rose, Barth Zech, Pierre Cladmi,Ferdinando Businaro and property entrepreneur MassimoCaputi.

ASSETS – Assets seized include a 25-room villa at Cor-tina d’Ampezzo, homes in Milan and Rome and a castle atTressino with more than 50 rooms, as well as a 30-room re-sidence and several plots of land in the Vicenza area. Theproperty seized has not been placed under seal because, asfinancial police sources point out, the purpose of the orderis to prevent its sale or dispersal until the current procee-dings have run their course.

LUXEMBOURG – The inquiry is in the hands of publicprosecutors Laura Pedio and Gaetano Ruta, coordinated byassistant public prosecutor Francesco Greco in collaborationwith experts from the tax office. The assets seized can be tra-ced back to ICG, a financial holding company formally anddeliberately set up in Luxembourg when its actual admini-strative base is alleged to be in Italy. Investigators are under-stood to have identified the locations in which decisionswere actually taken and orders issued for the managementof the Luxembourg-registered company by partners almostall of whom turned out to be resident in Italy.

The Signature went behind the feathers, and found out how McMahon became an inspiration, teacher andfriend to youngsters all over the world.

David Chickencomes to SigonellaINTERVIEW AND PHOTOS BY MCSN CAMERON BRAMHAMNAS Sigonella Public Affairs

The Signature: What interested you in becoming akid’s entertainer?

David Chicken: I’ve basically been entertaining kidssince I was a kid. I remember when I was seven dressingup as the Easter Bunny so the younger kids could comeand visit. I’ve always been in all kinds of rock ’n’ rolland hip-hop bands but the problem with those bandsis they’re very confining. They always want you to stickwith a genre. As you noticed with the show we did allkinds of music. We did hip-hop, rock ’n’ roll, type of oldschool country stuff. I even have a polka I can do. Sothat was one of the things that got me wanting to dokids music to begin with is that kids will embrace anykind of music as long as it’s fun and has a positive mes-sage which I’m all about. So, I decided to break out fromdoing traditional band type groups to doing this andit’s just a lot more fun and rewarding. There’s nothingbetter than seeing the kids all up, getting into it and dan-cing and singing along especially to songs that have agood messages like “Recycle Bin.”

TS:What do you think it is about your show that grabskid’s attention?

DC: I think one thing is they respond to the fact thatI’m sincere in my music. I’m not just putting on an actand wearing a funny hat. Which is one of the things Ilove about doing this the most is that I don’t put on anypretenses and I just get to go up there and do whatcomes naturally. You know everybody says find whatyou love and do more of that, and thankfully, I’m able

to do that. The songs are full of energy, they’re very in-teractive and the kids can tell that I love doing it.

TS: What is your show all about?

DC: I would say my show is all about interaction, gettingkids involved and positive messages like recycling, bru-shing your teeth, reading, and exercising. Trying to instillconfidence in kids like getting them a chance to get on thestage and be a star. Getting that feeling of being up in thespotlight and having people applaud for you means a lotfor kids. Also, I remember being a kid which I think helps.If you remember what it was like being a kid, it helps youconnect with kids better. I think some adults forget whatit was like to be a kid and I hope I never do.

TS:What made you want to perform for military chil-dren?

DC:Well honestly, this is my first tour getting to per-form with military kids and this is my second showdoing it. My first was up in [NSA] Naples and I loveit. I’ve been doing shows for ten years in the U.S. andCanada, but it’s been very rewarding to see it go overjust as well over here. It’s a tremendous honor to be ableto perform for military families.

TS:Has there been a different reaction from kids at mi-litary schools than kids in the States?

DC: None what so ever! In fact if anything , I wouldsay the older kids are less inhibited here which is nice;

because sometimes you get the older kids thinking thatthis is just a little kid thing. I really enjoyed the kids herethough, every kid in the gym was up singing and dan-cing, which made performing much more enjoyable.

TS:What do you like about NAS Sigonella?

DC:Talking to you now, I still haven’t had a chance togo into Catania or other towns around base and expe-rience anything yet, but I can tell you this is a beautifulbase. It’s really nice and we had a great tour of it thismorning. I can’t wait to go use the gym, maybe catch amovie or something and I love the view of the volcano!It’s blowing my mind! I think it’s a beautiful, beautifularea and I look forward to seeing Medusa and I hopeshe doesn’t turn me to stone.

TS: Is there anything “David McMahon” would like toadd?

DC: I would just like to thank Navy Entertainment forhaving me out and the MWR crew has been awesome!I mean everybody that I have encountered so far hasbeen super nice, gracious and have gone out of their wayto show me a nice time. I really appreciate being able todo this and it’s an honor.

TS: Any words for the kids?

DC: Keep on singing and dancing. Thank you for enjo-ying my music and giving me the opportunity to be yourfriend.

Sue Sheridan may not be widely knownby many people, but members of U.S. NavalHospital Sigonella sure got to know her. She-ridan appeared in a video shown to the Sai-lors that shed some light on medical errorsin a seminar aimed at bringing awarenessand education to the issue.

Through her video, Sheridan conveyed aheartfelt message of losing her husband tocancer in part to a safety mishap in his dia-

gnosis and also the ongoing struggle she hasin raising a son who is brain damaged be-cause of a safety mishap.

Navy Team Strategies and Tools to En-hance Performance and Patient Safety – orTeamSTEPPS – was created to combat er-rors like Sherdian’s. It is an initiative basedon evidence derived from team perfor-mance leveraging more than 25 years of re-search in military, aviation, nuclear power,

business, industry, and health care to acquireteam competencies. In short, this seminarhelped to educate members of the hospitalin reducing patient safety mishaps.

The seminar used team-building exerci-ses to show the different roles that exist inteam-based models and discussed the basicframework for TeamSTEPPS.

“Teamwork and collaboration in a healthcare setting is important for the entire com-

munity as a whole,” said Lt. RickyMcCallister, OB/GYN and Spe-cialty Care Clinic Manager and anattendee of the course. “If every-body is working together toward acommon goal, you get a broaderspectrum of input and care.”

The TeamSTEPPS concept is asignificant step forward for Navymedicine in terms of patient safety,according to U.S. Naval HospitalExecutive Officer CAPT MichialWarrington.

“When I first started in theNavy, it was the ‘Captain of theship’ mentality, and that carried ondown through the ranks,” he said.“You didn’t really have a voice.Things like team huddles weren’tbeing done. Now they’re doneevery day.”

Those “huddles” are what pa-tients don’t see in the hospital.These short meetings are a way fordoctors, nurses, and Corpsmen(among others) to essentially geton the same page prior to a proce-dure. This, in turn, increases com-munication and prevents mistakes.

The benefit of Navy Team-STEPPS is huge. As many as 98,000deaths occur annually as a result ofmedical errors. In fact, more Ame-ricans die from medical errors thanfrom breast cancer, AIDS, or car ac-cidents. And the cost associated

with medical errors can be anywhere from $8billion to $29 billion annually.

“Implementing this new program willhelp us be better prepared for a variety ofdifferent cases,” said Hospitalman ThirdClass Michael Graydon, a surgical technolo-gist in the operating room who attended theseminar. “This program will hopefully helpus prevent delays and errors, and ultimatelythat’s better for the patient.”
