Page CENTER NEWS Wednesday, Oct. 4, 2011 Sky Observer’s Journal Thursday, October 6th. Saturn is approaching solar conjunction, so this is the last opportunity to catch it in the evening sky. Today Saturn and Mercury have a conjunction. They will be within two degrees of each other in the evening sky, just six degrees from the Sun. It will be a difficult task to spot, but you might give it a try. Just don’t use binoculars or a telescope, as the Sun’s rays are just too dangerous to fool with. Also today Mars and Pluto are at heliocentric opposition, meaning that they are on opposite sides of the Sun as seen from each other. Friday, October 7th. Today Venus passes near an Asteroid. This involves asteroid 44 Nysa once again. Venus has just moved into the evening sky, so this too is an event near sunset. Two degrees separates the pair which are fourteen degrees from the setting Sun. Venus will be easy to spot, shining at magnitude -3.9. Nysa is a lot harder, as you found out if you tried to find it last week. It shines at a very dim magnitude +11.9 – dimmer by hundreds of times, but still brighter than Pluto ever gets. Also tonight the Moon is once again near the planet Neptune. Much easier to observe, this evening’s event is one hundred thirty five degrees from the Sun, so it will be high in the sky after the Sun sets. Saturday, October 8th. Would you believe it? Tonight is International Observe the Moon Night. Through International Observe the Moon Night, scientists, educators, and Moon enthusiasts from government, non-profit organizations, and businesses throughout the United States and across the globe hope to instill in the public a sense of wonderment and curiosity about our Moon. Here is the official web site listing events and activities (none near us) --http://observethemoonnight.org Sunday, October 9th. Mercury is in the evening sky now and it finds itself near the bright star Spica. Close to the setting Sun, this pair is a mere eight degrees apart from the very bright Sun. Monday, October 10th. The Moon passes close to Uranus this day. This is a good evening event, with about twelve lunar diameters separating the two targets. Wednesday, October 12th. Two lunar events tonight. Simultaneously the Moon is both full and at apogee. OK, the two events are about ten hours apart, but you couldn’t tell by looking. In fact the Full Moon occurred late on the 11th around ten PM. Lunar distance tonight is 63.72 earth-radii. MAKE A DIFFERENCE for C.A.T.S.!

In his 40+ years of service, Sam touched the lives of many employees and managers here at the Technical Center. Most of the employees who participated in the old “ATR” co-op program were under his instruction and guidance during their early development. Sam gave much of his time and effort to these students to assist them on their way to a career with the FAA. For many years, Sam also served as the COTR for the SOS-5 contract. In this capacity he worked with many different FAA and contract employees to support the mission of those programs and organizations using that vehicle. The Atlantic City Rescue Mission Needs Your Help In today’s economy, the Atlantic City Rescue Mission’s needs are greater than ever to provide shelter, food, and so much more for the homeless in Atlantic and Cape May counties. To help the Mission’s efforts, Jersey Shore Federal Credit Union is collecting baby formula, canned goods, slightly worn winter clothes, gently used blankets and bath towels. Virginia Williams, Chief Executive Officer of Jersey Shore Federal Credit Union states, “Many members have approached the credit union expressing how they feel fortunate to have a job, a roof over their head, and food on their plates. They want to reach out to those that have been most affected by these tough times. Please help us support an organization in our community that provides the basics for the men, women, and children in our community who need it most.” On Make A Difference Day, Saturday, October 29, Jersey Shore Federal Credit will deliver these items to the Atlantic City Rescue Mission and with your help, make a difference in many people’s lives. Just stop by the Northfield, Rio Grande or Technical Center (limited access) locations to drop off your donation. For more information regarding Jersey Shore Federal Credit Union, call (609) 646-3339 or visit www.jerseyshorefcu.org. Sam was an avid Philadelphia sports fan. He loved his Phillies and Eagles, and enjoyed the discussions and rivalries with Giants and Cowboys fans. He had a great sense of humor and a sharp wit. He was very knowledgeable and could speak on many different topics. Mostly, Sam was a gentleman and scholar and devoted family man. For those who knew him it was truly a privilege, and he will be missed. Please remember Sam and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Delaying the return of PIV badges is a SECURITY VIOLATION and subjects all Federal and Contractor employees to a security risk. SAFETY ADVISORY (REMINDER) With the increase in bicycle usage at the Technical Center, it is imperative that all employees are aware of and follow the rules of the road. Driving on our roadways requires care and courtesy whether you are driving a car or a bicycle. The Technical Center Safety Office is providing this advisory reminder in continuing employee awareness of the Rules of the Road. Emergency Evacuation Issue Involving Vehicles Exiting Parking Areas It has been brought to the attention of the Safety Office that during recent Emergency Evacuations, employees have proceeded to their personal vehicles after exiting the building and then leaving the parking areas. This has resulted in several “near misses” involving employees and emergency vehicles in the areas. Attempting to exit the parking lots in your vehicle creates an unsafe condition that may result in a serious vehicle mishap involving an employee who has exited the building or emergency vehicles entering the area. Employees are reminded to follow the Technical Center’s Emergency Evacuation Procedures of (1) exiting the building, (2) assembling at the designated emergency evacuation areas, and (3) waiting for further instructions from their supervisor. The Safety Office thanks you for your cooperation. REMINDER EMERGENCIES AND SUSPICIOUS PACKAGES! This security awareness message is to remind all FAA personnel, contractors and military personnel assigned to FAA facilities that we must exercise continued vigilance and be on alert for all types of suspicious activity, to include suspicious packages. If you have any questions regarding safe mail handling procedures or the identification of suspicious packages, or as with any emergency situation, call the FAA Technical Center established emergency response contact by dialing 1111, this will connect you with security. The recognition of suspicious letters and parcels is the first defense against their effectiveness. It is equally important to be prepared when a suspicious package/envelope has been identified. Some of the typical characteristics of suspicious packages and letters include the following: · No return address or a return address is not consistent with the State where postmarked · Handwriting on envelope is distorted or typewritten · Envelope is uneven, rigid or appears to contain no correspondence · Excessive postage · Addressee’s name misspelled or title listed incorrectly · Oily stains, powdery substances, peculiar odors, or unusual sounds coming from the item · Packages marked “confidential”, “personal” or “rush” · Delivered by unexplained or unusual means · Evidence of electrical wires or tin foil · Excessive wrapping materials, such as masking tape, strapping tape, or string If you receive a package/envelope like this: · Do not open the package/envelope. Leave the package/envelope on a desk or in an area where it can be monitored and left undisturbed. · Call your established emergency response contact (ie., building guards, municipal police, airport police, etc.), per established facility procedures.

The Southern Jersey Professional Societies American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and IEEE Computer Society Presents “An Analytical Model for Evaluating UAS Safety Risk and Mitigation Effects” By James T. Luxhøj, PhD Rutgers University Aviation is a complex domain characterized by low probability, high consequence events with scarce data; hence, safety risk modeling is particularly challenging. There continues to be a persistent need to develop the analytics to capture both the explicit and implicit risks inherent in such domains. In this presentation, a probabilistic safety risk model is discussed that integrates a Bayesian Network (BN) with Multi-Attribute Value Theory. The enhanced methodology with a structured hazard taxonomy provides a framework for the systematic inclusion of both the explicit risk inherent from the BN and the non-apparent implicit risk in the BN that exists in large complex systems. Preliminary modeling results suggest that model offers promise for advanced risk assessment, particularly for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) where civilian data are especially sparse.

Eagles Nest Airport will welcome the public to an open house on Saturday, October 15. A wide variety of aircraft will be on display, and visitors will have an opportunity to see them up close and learn from the pilots who fly them. The event is free and open to all. Food, a DJ and novelties will be available to the community and participating pilots “We hope the public will come and share the adventure of flying with us,” said Peter Weidhorn, the owner of Eagles Nest Airport. “This is a chance to view the world of pilots who fly for family transportation, personal challenge, career development or just plain fun. The open house will be an exciting opportunity for everyone, young and mature who have occasionally thought about learning to fly. It’s not always understood that the airport is an integral part of the community. As Eagles Nest is developed, an employment base will be established, that will create community income from the businesses and industries that use general aviation (inon-airline) transportation to facilitate their operations. A general aviation airport facility will also serve as an educational and recreational medium for the community. “ “The airport open house will provide a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the airport’s role in the community, as well as experiencing the excitement of aviation first hand.” Participants include: The Ocean County Radio Flyers Club Calloways Restaurant and Amusement park Civil Air Patrol EAA- Monmouth and Ocean County Chapters Woman in Aviation Flight School Black Sheep Squadron Wednesday, Oct. 4, 2011 CENTER NEWS Leave Donor Program Employees interested in donating leave may submit their donations through the Online VLTP Intranet site located at: https://webapps.awp.faa.gov/ovltp/index. cfm?here=home In order to donate, you must click on the “Online Leave Donor Application” NOTE: Donors must use an FAA computer with Intranet access to donate leave through this process!
