NASA
Safety and Mission Success (SMS) Week
CD Jim Kennedy
invites the entire KSC civil service and contractor workforce
to engage in an Agencywide dialogue on the Columbia Accident Investigation
Board (CAIB) Report during the week of Nov. 17 - 21. “During
NASA SMS Week, we are providing an opportunity for individuals
and organizations to reflect on the relevance of the CAIB findings
and recommendations and provide input and feedback on the implementation
strategies,” said Kennedy in a CD Comm Oct. 31. Copies of
the CAIB Report will be distributed to all KSC employees this
week and all employees are encouraged to read the report, internalize
the findings and focus on its Agencywide implications as well
as implications in your own workplace. Center managers will be
briefed on SMS Week activities and their roles and responsibilities.
On Nov. 17, NASA Administrator Sean O’Keefe will kick off
SMS Week, which will be followed by a KSC All Hands Meeting. Details
on the KSC All Hands will be issued soon.

Did
You Know ?
The middle of the afternoon often becomes the ;I wish
I could take a nap time. The reason may be that your body
needs some energy. Spacing meals three to four hours apart
makes it easier to stay energized throughout the day; an afternoon
snack is often the key to making it through. Instead of grabbing
whatever is available, try some of these snack ideas:
-
Microwave low-fat popcorn
-
Mixed nuts and dried fruit
-
Saltine or whole wheat crackers with peanut butter
-
Fresh fruits, either plain or with cheese
-
One half of a whole wheat bagel topped with peanut butter
or hummus
-
One cup of low-fat yogurt with two
- Tablespoons
whole grain cereal
-
Carrot and pepper strips with low-fat salad dressing
-
Sunflower or pumpkin seeds
-
A fresh fruit yogurt smoothie
Remember, snacking from a bag or box always results in overeating.
Keep snack portions small by placing the food on a plate
and eating slowly.
