A lot of people may not know ,but not only is OCTOBER PINKTOBER but it is
also NATIONAL FIRE PREVENTION MONTH. Each year, the campaign focuses on a different
aspect of safety, from preventing forest fires to planning an escape route during a blaze. While the
campaign lasts the entire month most police and fire departments designate the second week of
October as Fire Prevention Week, during which demonstrations and expos are held in different U.S.
cities.
Sponsored by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),Fire Prevention Month has roots
that date back to THE GREAT CHICAGO FIRE of 1871 that killed more than 250 people and left
more than 100,000 homeless. The fire,which was reportedly started in a barn, also burned more than
2,000 acres and destroyed about 17,400 structures. The three-day fire, which started October 8,did
most of its damage on October 9,1871,which is why Fire Prevention Week is always held around that
date. The first National Fire Prevention Day was declared by President Woodrow Wilson in
1922,and the week long observance is the longest running public safety and health campaign on record.

Hi Friends!
As you all know its that time again....to THINK PINK!! We are all interested in the new stats and information related to Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Awareness. This disease affects all of us in some form or fashion. We all know a friend or loved one who may be a survivor or is currently suffering with Breast Cancer. I personally know too many to count.
Management of people with breast cancer later in life is often challenging due to lack of good quality evidence regarding the roles of adjuvant chemotherapy. Decisions regarding chemotherapy should be made based on the type of tumor and the age of the tumor rather than the person's chronological age.(http/www.medscape.com/viewarticle/817435)
According to recent data and the opinions of Cancer Specialists the best treatment for Breast Cancer is still early detection and maintaining an overall healthy well-balanced lifestyle. So in this month of PINKTOBER remember to get those yearly check-ups and mammograms!

Purify your indoor air......
Environmental Science & Technology highlights a worrisome reality about dust in our homes: It can contain a mixture of potentially toxic chemicals that leach out of everything from fabrics to paint to flooring materials and can pose hazards including dizziness,asthma,and allergies. Three ways to keep indoor air as clean as possible:
- Open windows often
- Buy air-cleansing houseplants
- Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter.
Five common houseplants-Caribbean tree cacti,jade plants,bromeliads,spider plants,and dracaenas were proven to be effective at filtering harmful substances from indoor air. Plants absorb dangerous compounds from the air in to their leaves and then move them to their root zones,where microbes break them down.

Motivating The Mind and Waking up the Senses!
Many of us are unaware of our now " Brain Health." There is nothing wrong with evaluating our
memories and asking ourselves questions regarding our thinking patterns. Sometimes even little
things like losing our keys or walking into a room and forgetting why we went there are triggers for
us. I believe many of us have these little "forgetful moments." In the instance that we drive to town
and forget how to get back home that becomes a major red flag for those around us.
This is when it becomes apparent that our "Brain Health" may need evaluation or that we should
begin to re- think our overall health. Sometimes a simple yearly check-up or revamping our diets and
eating cleaner and greener can wake up our brains and refresh our senses. Just remember new are
never too young or too old to start to think about our "Brain Health."
