Use Caution Near Co-op Equipment
CLASSIFIEDS
A
Animals/Livestock
s you find yourself spending more time outdoors this summer, West Florida Electric Cooperative (WFEC) reminds you to exercise caution near electrical equipment maintained by the co-op. Substations and power lines carry extremely high voltages, and if contact is accidentally made, the results can be dangerous––or even deadly. Never climb trees near power lines. If you make contact with a tree that is touching a power line, your body could become the path of electricity from the line to the ground. If you encounter an animal trapped in a tree near power lines or inside a substation, do not attempt to remove it––no matter how furry and cute! Call WFEC or 911 for assistance. These days, we are seeing more remote-controlled toys, like drones and airplanes, which can be a great way to have fun outdoors. But these gadgets also bring new safety concerns. Remote-controlled devices should never be flown near power lines, substations or other electrical equipment. 6495001 Remember these safety tips when flying a remote-controlled device:

• Keep a safe distance from electrical equipment when you fly. If contact is accidentally made with a power line or a transformer inside a substation, many members of your community could be left without electricity. • Keep the remote-controlled device in sight at all times. • Avoid flying if weather conditions are unfavorable. High winds could cause you to lose control of the remote-controlled device. Here at WFEC, your safety is important to us. We hope you will share the message of electrical safety so that you and others can enjoy plenty of summer days filled with fun! Visit westflorida.coop for more electrical safety tips.

he primary election will be held on August 30, 2016. Primary elections are very important. It’s possible that some races, such as Universal Primary Contests (a race that will be on all ballots, due to all candidates having the same party affiliation) Judges, school board, constitutional amendments or referenda issues will be decided during this primary election. The deadline to register to vote or to change your party affiliation for this primary election is August 1, 2016. Florida is a Closed Primary State, which means if you wish to vote in a partisan primary election, you must be a registered voter in the party for which the primary is being held. Voters affiliated with a minor political party or those with no party affiliation (a.k.a “independent” voters) only vote for Universal Primary Contests (races that will be on all ballots due to all candidates having the same party affiliation), nonpartisan offices and issues during a primary election. If you need to change your party affiliation, the change must be made 29 days prior to the election. 69187002 Any eligible and registered voter in Florida may vote by mail. Mail ballots are counted in the State of Florida during every election and are among the first results available at 7:00 p.m. on election night. If you choose to vote by mail, contact your local election office to request your ballot. It is very important when voting by mail that your signature on file in the elections office is up-to-date. If you do not vote early or vote by mail, you must vote at your home precinct on election day (F.S. 101.62 (4)(c)(5) unless you are precluded from doing so by an emergency. Visit your supervisor of elections’ website to determine where your precinct is located.

not use the same password on every account you own. It should also be changed periodically, particularly if you suspect that your email account has been compromised.
Quantum electric wheelchair, less than 2-years-old, excellent condition, worth $5,000, asking $700; 956-2421.
2) Limit your exposure. Consider using two email addresses – one for personal messages and one for shopping, newsletters, chat rooms, coupons and other services. You might also consider using a disposable email address service that forwards messages to your permanent account. If one of the disposable addresses begins to receive spam, you can shut it off without affecting your permanent address. Another good tip is to try not to display your email address in public. That includes blog posts, in chat rooms, on social networking sites or in online membership directories. Spammers use the web to harvest email addresses.

3) Check privacy policies and uncheck boxes. Check the privacy policy before you submit your email address to a website. See if it allows the company to sell your email to others. You might decide not to submit your email address to websites that won’t protect it. When you do submit your email address to a website, look for pre-checked boxes that sign you up for email updates from the company and its partners. Some websites allow you to opt out of receiving these mass emails.
1977 Chevrolet one ton dually, needs motor, $800; 16’ x 8’ trailer, one axle, $500 or trade for small trailer; 547-2141.
4) Choose a unique email address. Your choice of email addresses may affect the amount of spam you receive. Spammers send out millions of messages to probable name combinations at large ISPs and email services, just hoping to find a valid address. Because of this, a common name such as jdoe may get more spam than a more unique name like j26d0e34. The downside? It’s harder to remember an unusual email address. How can I help reduce spam for everyone? Use good computer security practices and disconnect from the internet when you’re away from your computer. Hackers can’t get to it if it’s not connected. Be cautious about opening any attachments or downloading files from emails you receive. Don’t open an email attachment (even if it is from a friend or coworker) unless you are expecting it or you know what it is. If you send an email with an attached file, include a message explaining what it is. Download free software only from sites you know and trust. It can be tempting to download free software like games, file-sharing programs and customized toolbars, but remember, that free software programs may contain malware. 68265001 Please remember that West Florida Electric will never ask for your personal information via email. We will never sell your email address or contact information to any other companies or third parties. You may occasionally receive a direct marketing piece of email from WFEC or a survey, however, those emails will be clearly marked with WFEC’s logo. Please remember that if you have a question about whether or not an email you received is from the cooperative, contact the office at 800.342.7400 to confirm before you respond or reply.

nwanted commercial email or “spam” can be annoying. Worse, it can include bogus offers that can cost you time and money. Spam emails could have spyware which can steal your personal information or disrupt your personal computer or wireless device by implanting viruses or worms (malware). Some malware can integrate your computer into a network to distribute spam. You should take steps to limit the amount of spam you get and treat spam offers the same way you would treat an uninvited telemarketing sales call – don’t believe promises from strangers. 8913001 How can I reduce the amount of spam I get? 1) Use an email filter.

lectricity truly powers our lives. We use it at almost all times – either directly or indirectly. It not only fuels what we consider necessities – lighting, refrigeration, water heating or air conditioning, it is also essential for today’s technological advances like cell phones, televisions and computers. 82745001 It’s so abundant and affordable that most people only think about it when the power goes off. Consumers often point to the rising cost of electricity, both now and in the future. However, compared to other goods, electricity prices have remained relatively low. In fact, West Florida Electric members are seeing rates as low as they were back in 2008, according to Russell Dunaway, WFEC Executive Vice President & CEO. WFEC’s rates for 1,000 kWh also continue to remain lower than the local investor-owned utilities. This is quite an accomplishment when you consider that your cooperative serves approximately six members per mile of line, while the local investor-owned utilities serve 50 to 60 consumers per mile of line. Plus, when compared to the rising cost of other consumer goods like gasoline and beef, electricity costs have remained relatively stable. Despite increases in the cost of generating and delivering electricity, it remains a good value. WFEC is committed to providing safe, reliable electricity and keeping your bills affordable. 98245002 Did you know that for less than $5 a day, you can keep your home at a comfortable temperature, bathe in hot water, cook your meals, wash your clothes, watch television and power your smart phone?

Miscellaneous (cont.)
not use the same password on every account you own. It should also be changed periodically, particularly if you suspect that your email account has been compromised.
Quantum electric wheelchair, less than 2-years-old, excellent condition, worth $5,000, asking $700; 956-2421.
2) Limit your exposure. Consider using two email addresses – one for personal messages and one for shopping, newsletters, chat rooms, coupons and other services. You might also consider using a disposable email address service that forwards messages to your permanent account. If one of the disposable addresses begins to receive spam, you can shut it off without affecting your permanent address. Another good tip is to try not to display your email address in public. That includes blog posts, in chat rooms, on social networking sites or in online membership directories. Spammers use the web to harvest email addresses.
Multiple Listings
3) Check privacy policies and uncheck boxes. Check the privacy policy before you submit your email address to a website. See if it allows the company to sell your email to others. You might decide not to submit your email address to websites that won’t protect it. When you do submit your email address to a website, look for pre-checked boxes that sign you up for email updates from the company and its partners. Some websites allow you to opt out of receiving these mass emails.
1977 Chevrolet one ton dually, needs motor, $800; 16’ x 8’ trailer, one axle, $500 or trade for small trailer; 547-2141.
4) Choose a unique email address. Your choice of email addresses may affect the amount of spam you receive. Spammers send out millions of messages to probable name combinations at large ISPs and email services, just hoping to find a valid address. Because of this, a common name such as jdoe may get more spam than a more unique name like j26d0e34. The downside? It’s harder to remember an unusual email address. How can I help reduce spam for everyone? Use good computer security practices and disconnect from the internet when you’re away from your computer. Hackers can’t get to it if it’s not connected. Be cautious about opening any attachments or downloading files from emails you receive. Don’t open an email attachment (even if it is from a friend or coworker) unless you are expecting it or you know what it is. If you send an email with an attached file, include a message explaining what it is. Download free software only from sites you know and trust. It can be tempting to download free software like games, file-sharing programs and customized toolbars, but remember, that free software programs may contain malware. 68265001 Please remember that West Florida Electric will never ask for your personal information via email. We will never sell your email address or contact information to any other companies or third parties. You may occasionally receive a direct marketing piece of email from WFEC or a survey, however, those emails will be clearly marked with WFEC’s logo. Please remember that if you have a question about whether or not an email you received is from the cooperative, contact the office at 800.342.7400 to confirm before you respond or reply.

he primary election will be held on August 30, 2016. Primary elections are very important. It’s possible that some races, such as Universal Primary Contests (a race that will be on all ballots, due to all candidates having the same party affiliation) Judges, school board, constitutional amendments or referenda issues will be decided during this primary election. The deadline to register to vote or to change your party affiliation for this primary election is August 1, 2016. Florida is a Closed Primary State, which means if you wish to vote in a partisan primary election, you must be a registered voter in the party for which the primary is being held. Voters affiliated with a minor political party or those with no party affiliation (a.k.a “independent” voters) only vote for Universal Primary Contests (races that will be on all ballots due to all candidates having the same party affiliation), nonpartisan offices and issues during a primary election. If you need to change your party affiliation, the change must be made 29 days prior to the election. 69187002 Any eligible and registered voter in Florida may vote by mail. Mail ballots are counted in the State of Florida during every election and are among the first results available at 7:00 p.m. on election night. If you choose to vote by mail, contact your local election office to request your ballot. It is very important when voting by mail that your signature on file in the elections office is up-to-date. If you do not vote early or vote by mail, you must vote at your home precinct on election day (F.S. 101.62 (4)(c)(5) unless you are precluded from doing so by an emergency. Visit your supervisor of elections’ website to determine where your precinct is located.

Use Caution Near Co-op Equipment
CLASSIFIEDS

Animals/Livestock
s you find yourself spending more time outdoors this summer, West Florida Electric Cooperative (WFEC) reminds you to exercise caution near electrical equipment maintained by the co-op. Substations and power lines carry extremely high voltages, and if contact is accidentally made, the results can be dangerous––or even deadly. Never climb trees near power lines. If you make contact with a tree that is touching a power line, your body could become the path of electricity from the line to the ground. If you encounter an animal trapped in a tree near power lines or inside a substation, do not attempt to remove it––no matter how furry and cute! Call WFEC or 911 for assistance. These days, we are seeing more remote-controlled toys, like drones and airplanes, which can be a great way to have fun outdoors. But these gadgets also bring new safety concerns. Remote-controlled devices should never be flown near power lines, substations or other electrical equipment. 6495001 Remember these safety tips when flying a remote-controlled device:
