Air racing, ships on parade highlight
kick off event to Fleet Week 2008

S
an Diego’s version
of Fleet Week
2008 hits the water and
sky this weekend when
one of the celebration’s
flagship events kicks
off on the San Diego
waterfront.
The Sea & Air Parade will
feature Navy ships parading
with two “Tall Ships” and
a sky race with world-class
pilots demontrating air
racing. The Navy’s Surface
Force headquarters in San
Diego confirmed this week
that five Navy warships will
be involved in the parade.
They are “small boys” USS
Gary (FFG 51), USS Kidd
(DDG 100), USS Preble
(DDG 88), USS Lake
Champlain (CG 57) and dock
landing ship USS Rushmore
(LSD 47). Combined, the
ships represent crews of
approximately 1,600 enlisted
and officer crewmembers.
While Parade organizers
r ea lize th e imp o r tan ce
of today’s military and
the local presence of the
Navy, they also know the
importance that other ships
play in sea warfare. Tall
Ships Californian and HMS
Surprise will compete in a
mock battle in the bay. In her
prime, Surprise was a French
corvette until it was captured
in 1796 by the British. Itr was
then renamed HMS Surprise,
rearmed with carronades and
classed as a 28-gun frigate.
With USS Ronald Reagan
in port across the bay at
North Island, expect some
aircraft touch n’ goes on
the carrier's flight deck.
Normally, those landings
only occur at sea when air
squadrons are embarked
during training underway
periods and depoyment.
The Air Race is a
competition in which the
pilots are up against each
other in a race based on
speed, precision and skill.
One of the best features of the
Air Race is that the aircraft
are up close and personal.
“What makes the Air Race
so exciting and interesting for
spectators is the proximity of
the contest to the crowds,”
said Kelli Herwehe of the
public relations firm Strategy
Communications. “Low level
flying on a relatively compact
course means that people
can really experience all the
action close-up.”
Air Race competition
features a new discipline of
flying known as air racing, as
pilots navigate a challenging
race course in the sky, in
the fastest possible time.
As an individual sport, air
racing pits each pilot against
a clock while they execute
tight turns through a slalom
course consisting of air gates,
which are specially designed
pylons. Pilots compete in
knockout rounds with the
SAN DIEGO -- USS Boxer (LHD 4), along with various embarked
units and non-governmental organizations departed San Diego Monday en route to Latin America for the Pacific Phase of Continuing
Promise 2008.
CP 2008 is a U.S. Southern Command operation, carried out under
the operational control of U.S. Naval Forces Southern Command,
SOUTHCOM’s Naval component command. “We are partnering
with our neighbors to provide construction capabilities ashore, basic
primary health care, dentistry, environmental health care, optometry,
biomedical repair, training and even veterinary care,” said Capt. Peter
Dallman, commander of PHIBRON 5. see photo, page 12
Mercy deploys on Pacific Partnership ‘08
SAN DIEGO - Hospital ship USNS Mercy was scheduled to deploy
from San Diego on May 1, kicking off Pacific Partnership 2008.
A humanitarian civic assistance (HCA) mission, Pacific Partnership
brings together host nation medical personnel, partner nation military
medical and construction personnel, and non-governmental organizations to provide medical, dental, construction and other services HCA
ashore and afloat in Southeast Asia and Oceania.
The four-month deployment will strengthen the goodwill developed
during previous HCA missions, such as the 2004 tsunami relief efforts
and last year’s USS Peleliu Pacific Partnership.

For spectators who aren’t
able to join in the pay-to-view,
prime viewing aboard the
USS Midway Museum, there
are spots along the harbor for
viewing both the ship parade
and the air racing. The best
spots might be on Harbor
Island next to Island Prime
Restaurant. According to
Herwehe, “military families
will get access to special
viewing areas to see the
parade by pier papa.”
Due the increased popularity
of the Sea & Air Parade, there
will be 4,000 more parking
spots than last year. Check for

To FCPOs: Great expectations from MCPON
by MCCS(SW/AW) Bill Houlihan
WASHINGTON - Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy
(MCPON) (SW/FMF) Joe R. Campa Jr. has made his expectations
of the Navy’s first class petty officer community a public priority of
his the last six months.
During the recent annual Petty Officer First Class Leadership
Symposium held in Washington, he left no doubt in the minds of
more than 400 attendees that the Navy expects them to meet the
responsibility of being first class petty officers and that Sailors depend
on their first line leadership.
His appearance kicked off a week featuring briefs on topics such
as the chief petty officer selection board process to mentorship and
sailorization. Campa used the opportunity to remind the first class
petty officers what their first priority should be.
“You are in the best position to influence Sailors,” said Campa.
“Now I want you to look at those expectations (of the first class petty
officer) and use them to determine whether you’re doing everything
to meet your individual responsibilities and your responsibilities as a
first class mess.” For the full story, log on to www.news.navy.mil.

SEAL BEACH - Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach announced
recently that ongoing ecological initiatives have earned the command
the 2007 Secretary of Defense Environmental Award for Natural
Resources Conservation.
Named first among small commands throughout the Armed Forces,
the award honors the base for its continuing commitment to natural
resources management and the protection of endangered, threatened
and at-risk species.
“For a small installation, there is a lot going on,” said Navy Natural
Resources Conservation Manager Bob Schallmann. “We try to look at
the station at an ecosystem and regional level. This means managing
all of our programs for the good of the whole without an adverse
impact on the military mission.”
About 911 acres of primarily salt marshland aboard the base were
designated as a National Wildlife Refuge in 1972. Contributing to the
station’s security and acting as an explosives safety buffer, this land
is also host to a wide range of state and federally-listed endangered
and threatened species.

Politicized military would lose
public trust, official says
W
by John J. Kruzel
ASHINGTON - If the U.S. military lost its politically neutral footing, the armed forces would surrender the public’s trust, a senior U.S. military officer who
explained a new Defense Department directive on troops’
political activity said in an interview.
“If we do appear to be
influenced by our own views
or our own understanding of
how things should be, we’re
going to lose the public trust,”
Army Col. Shawn Shumake,
director of legal policy within
the Office of the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for
Personnel and Readiness, told
the Pentagon Channel. “We’re
going to lose the confidence
that’s so important and that
the military has maintained
for so many years.”
To reinforce the military’s
apolitical position, the Defense Department has renewed its emphasis on the
rules limiting what troops
may or may not do within
the political arena, Shumake
said.
The new version of a department-issued directive
titled “Political Activities
by Members of the Armed
Forces” became effective Feb.
19 and replaces the previous
version, released in August
2004. It adds two sections that
discuss candidacy and campaigning issues pertaining
to former military members,
retirees and current military
reservists running for elected
office.
Under certain circumstances,
some reserve-component members can run for or hold elective
political office, Shumake said
in an interview with American
Forces Press Service. Yet, there
is “a right way and a wrong
way to do that,” he stressed,
noting the new language describing those issues.
The directive outlines specific rules pertaining to cases
of regular, retired and reservecomponent servicemembers
holding elective or appointed
office within the U.S. government, Shumake said, including
elected positions with state,
territorial, county or municipal
governments.
In addition, the revised directive requires military members
holding such positions to apply
for and secure the approval of
their individual service secretaries. Shumake noted that the
requirement for service secretarial approval depends on the
length of the servicemember’s
call or order to active duty.
Active-duty servicemembers
are strictly prohibited from campaigning for political office or
actively taking part in a political campaign - even behind the
scenes - and the revised directive
specifies what active-duty members may or may not do regarding
political activities, he added.
“The reason behind the limitations on political activities is
the military has to be seen as
exercising unvarnished military
judgment,” Shumake told the
Pentagon Channel. “We’ve got
to make sure that the people
understand that the military is
not influenced by the events of
the day and what could be considered partisan politics.”

Navy has new national
Dale Jr. recruiting program
TALLADEGA, Ala. - The
U.S. Navy and NASCAR’s
five-time most popular driver,
Dale Earnhardt Jr., announced
April 25 the formation of the
Dale Jr. Division, an 88-person
boot camp division at Recruit
Training Command Great
Lakes.
Potential Sailors will be
able to start signing up for the
division, May 24, at their local
recruiting station.
To officially launch the
division, Earnhardt Jr. will drive
the JR Motorsports No. 83 Navy
Dale Jr. Division Monte Carlo SS
in the CARQUEST Auto Parts
300 at Lowe’s Motor Speedway,
May 24. The national recruiting
effort is the first of its kind for
the Navy, and will be supported
by a national advertising and
marketing campaign.
“This is the first time we’ve
developed a national-level
recruiting program, focused
on the synergy of the Navy
and a high performing, nonmilitary partner,” said Capt.
Jack Hanzlik, Chief of Naval
Personnel, public affairs officer.
“NASCAR is a high-tech sport
and the type of equipment,
teamwork and commitment
required to be a winning
organization is very similar
to what it takes to succeed in
the Navy - that’s why we’ve
partnered with the top team in
the industry.
“Everything JR Motorsports
does is centered around
excellence, teamwork and
professional development and
that squarely places them in
that number one seat, and that’s
where the Navy sits in the
defense of our Nation. The
Navy is constantly seeking to
bring aboard the most talented
young men and women that
represent our diverse nation.
Uh rah! Warrior Day
For those who want to join
an organization that offers
tremendous opportunity and the
chance to make a difference in
our global future, join the Navy
Dale Jr. Division.”
Recruits who sign up for the
Dale Jr. Division will ship to
Recruit Training Command in
late August and the division will
be commissioned by Earnhardt
Jr. after initial in-processing.
Earnhardt Jr. will again visit
“his” recruits upon completion
of their seven-to-eight week
course.
“JR Motorsports has enjoyed
a great relationship with the
Navy for several years now,”
Earnhardt Jr. said. “Through
that relationship I’ve been able
to meet a number of Sailors
from various commands and it’s
always cool to hear their stories
and learn more about what they
do to protect and serve our
country. I’m honored to be a part
of the Navy’s first-ever national
recruiting campaign, and I look
forward to going up to Great
Lakes to commission them once
all 88 recruits are in place.”
PENSACOLA, Fla. (April 18, 2008) - Service members assigned to the Center for Information Dominance Corry Station run laps to loosen up before
a 1.5 mile run to start Warrior Day. The field day
focuses on team events such as volleyball, football,
softball and a tug-of-war. CID Corry Station oversees career management and training for officer
and enlisted students of the U.S. military and allied
forces in the fields of Information Warfare, Information Professional, Cryptologic and Information
Technology. Navy photo by Gary Nichols
In addition, Brad Keselowski,
driver of the No. 88 Navy
Chevrolet, will join the division
during training to learn the boot
camp basics such as marching,
damage control and physical
training.

PaCom helps establish transnational crime unit in Micronesia
by Donna Miles
A new transnational crime
unit U.S. Pacific Command is
helping to establish in Micronesia will support a multinational
crackdown on drug trafficking
and other crimes that have the
potential to destabilize the region, a senior military official
said April 28.

“So this unit is really transnational in its composition,”
Zukunft said.
The Micronesia Regional
Transnational Unit opened
April 23 in Pohnpei, Micronesia, to promote information

methamphetamines, throughout
Asia and the Pacific, said Rear

responsible for U.S. Navy
ships, aircraft and submarines
operating in the U.S. Southern
Command (SOUTHCOM) area
of focus, which encompasses
the Caribbean, and Central

surrounding waters.
The task force also is training operators at the new facility “to, in simplistic terms,

said. The Australian National

security in the southern part
of the Western Hemisphere,
and sends a strong signal to all
the civil and military maritime
services in Central and Latin
America,” said Roughead.
“Aligning the Fourth Fleet
along with our other numbered
fleets and providing the
capabilities and personnel are
a logical execution of our new
Maritime Strategy.”
U.S. 4th Fleet was original
established in 1943 as one of
the original numbered fleets,
and was given a specific
mission. During World War
II, the U.S. needed a command
in charge of protecting against
raiders, blockade runners and
enemy submarines in the South
Atlantic. U.S. 4th Fleet was
disestablished in 1950 when
U.S. 2nd Fleet took over its
responsibilities.
Initially, the new 4th Fleet
will be headquartered with
C O M U S N AV S O a n d t a k e
advantage of the existing
infrastructure, communications
support and personnel already
in place in Mayport. As a
result, U.S. 4th Fleet will not
involve an increase in forces
assigned in Mayport.
“This is a significant
change and presents us the
opportunity to garner the right
resources for the missions we
run for Southern Command,”
said Rear Adm. James W.
Stevenson Jr., Commander,
U.S. Naval Forces Southern
Command (NAVSO). “As a
numbered fleet, we will be in
a better position to ensure the
Combatant Commander has
the right assets available when
needed.”
U.S. 4th Fleet will
retain responsibility as
COMUSNAVSO, the Navy
component command for
SOUTHCOM. Its mission
is to direct U.S. naval forces
operating in the Caribbean,
Central and South American
regions and interact with partner
nation navies within the maritime
environment. Various operations
include counter-illicit trafficking,
Theater Security Cooperation,
military-to-military interaction
and bilateral and multinational
training.

advance knowledge of where
the threats might exist in the
ocean,” Zukunft said. “Information is key.”
Collectively, the network of
facilities will build a more proactive criminal intelligence and
investigative presence in the
Pacific that’s critical in light of
criminal elements who operate
across borders, Zukunft said.
“What we are trying to do
is support a network that will
support the multinational sharing of information, since a lot
of these transnational crime
activities are truly global enterprises,” he said. In addition,
many have nearly unlimited
resources, which he said “puts
law enforcement, obviously, at
an extreme disadvantage.”
Zukunft cited a strong correlation between areas with
high drug-interdiction rates and
those with strong informationsharing protocols that bolster
law enforcement capability.
This, in turn, supports good
governance that discourages
transnational criminals.
“The bad guys typically
will look for paths of least
resistance, where rule of law
is weak,” Zukunft said. “It
is an opportunity for them to
exploit, … and that’s what we
are working to prevent.”

UNITAS kicks off
by MC2 Riza Caparros
RIO DE JANEIRO - USS
George Washington (CVN
73) and the George Washington Carrier Strike Group
participated in the opening
ceremony for UNITAS 49-08
April 22.
UNITAS, Latin for “unity,”
is a 49-year-old annual exercise designed to enhance
friendly, mutual cooperation,
understanding and interoperability for participating navies
through cultural exchanges
and maritime warfare and
maritime interdiction operations scenarios.
Commander, Destroyer
Squadron 40, Capt. Rodelio
Laco Jr., described the mission
of UNITAS as working together to solve common issues
and to engage with maritime
partners in the hemisphere.
“By increasing interoperability, information sharing
and cooperation, we can collectively improve the maritime
security of the hemisphere,
which will ensure the free
flow of maritime trade,” Laco
said. “Our mutual economies
highly depend upon maritime
shipping to keep them thriving
and it is in our mutual interest
to protect the freedom of the
seas.”
Laco stressed the Navy’s
new maritime strategy as a key
element of UNITAS 49-08.
“We’re attempting to engage our partner navies of
Brazil and Argentina on multiple levels,” Laco said. “Multinational task groups will
include Sailor exchanges and
cultural sharing while participating in complex and sophisticated scenarios beneficial to
all participating navies.”

More than 85,000 serve Veterans as VA volunteers
Shipmates storm Capitol Hill
Members of FRA’s National Board of Directors (NBOD), as
well as FRA regional vice presidents, visited their senators and
representatives last week in Washington, D.C. During the 40 Capitol
Hill office visits, shipmates discussed priority legislative issues
including FRA’s opposition to
proposed TRICARE fee increases
and the Association’s support for
MGIB reform with a focus on
allowing VEAP era members to
have access to MGIB, elimination of enrollment fees, and adequate
benefits to cover college costs. Each member of Congress received
point papers outlining FRA’s position on these important issues, in
addition to the Association’s full legislative agenda. FRA’s Board
of Directors is conducting its annual meeting today and Saturday

Legislation
introduced
FRA staff (NED Joe Barnes
and DLP John Davis) and
personnel from several other
organizations met this week
with staff from the Senate
Armed Services’ Personnel
Subcommittee, Senate Veterans
Affairs Committee, and staff
from the offices of Senators John
McCain (Ariz.), Richard Burr
(N.C.), and Lindsey Graham
(S.C.) to discuss specific
legislative provisions to reform
the current Montgomery GI Bill
program. FRA staff also attended
a Capitol Hill press conference
to announce the soon-to-beintroduced “The Enhancement
of Recruitment, Retention, and
Readjustment through Education
Act” sponsored by Graham, Burr
and McCain. The Association is
the leading advocate for offering
an open enrollment period
for VEAP-era senior enlisted
personnel who currently have no
education benefits, and also seek
increasing the benefit to keep
pace with escalating college
costs. These and other concerns
about the current MGIB program
are frequently mentioned in FRA
testimony befo re Congress.
The bill will be introduced next
week and will provide $500 a
year for books (new provision);
increases monthly payment from
$1,100 to $1,500; increases
monthly payment to $2,000 for
those with 12 years of service or
more; transferability of benefits
to dependents for those with
12 years of service or more;
increases payments for Reserve
Component from $317 to $634
per month; and allows certain
VEAP-era personnel who were
on active duty on 9/11/01 to
access MGIB.
Authorization
moves forward
As predicted in last week’s
Newsbytes, the stalled FY 2008
Coast Guard Authorization bill
(H.R. 2830) was approved by
the House this week. The bill
now moves to the Senate for
consideration. FRA addressed
the legislation in statements
submitted to the House
Coast Guard and Maritime
Subcommittee in February
and the Senate Oceans,
Atmospheric, Fisheries, and
Coast Guard Subcommittee
in March. Both statements are
posted on FRA’s website at
www.fra.org.

TRICARE offers a no stress
guide to parenthood
Places of Worship
New parents should be enjoying their new baby, not worrying about
health care. TRICARE Management Activity (TMA) provides essential
health care information for parents on its Web site.
The Life Events section at www.tricare.mil guides parents-to-be from
maternity to pre-teen health care. The site includes information about
prenatal, post partum, pre-adoption, adoption and well-child care.
One of the first and most important steps is enrolling your newborn
in the Defense Eligibility and Enrollment Response System (DEERS).
The TRICARE site shows parents how to effectively navigate the enrollment process, a crucial step that gets a child into the system where
they can be recognized as an eligible beneficiary.
Parents can find essential information about their child’s dental health
at www.tricaredentalprogram.com. Here, TRICARE conveys dental
program options and enrollment information, and answers questions
about oral care for children.
The effort to provide new parents with health care options is part of
TRICARE’s recognition of April as the “Month of the Military Child.”
TRICARE, along with other military organizations and installations,
is showing its support for military children during this month and all

Careers & Education
Classroom experience where students learn through travel and cultural immersion
High school study abroad
programs have seen a broadening demand as more and more
parents realize that exposure
to international travel and
education, as well as being an
enlightening experience, can
be a competitive differentiator
in college entry applications.
However, with the rising value
of the Euro, the ability for
many of these families to
enroll their children has been
challenged.
Magellan Study Abroad’s
philosophy of “Quality, Safety
and Affordability” provides
families a unique opportunity
to realize the very best study
abroad experience. Magellan’s
programs include many “extras” such as all American High
School teacher chaperones,
home stay families, cultural
activities and comprehensive
travel insurance.
Although the host coun-
tries provide native language
instructors in their schools,
Magellan requires all summer
chaperone staff to be U.S. high
school language teachers who
have superior knowledge of the
target language and destination
countries, in addition to having a good rapport with teens.
Shari Kaulig, AP Spanish
teacher at Los Alamitos High
School, has lead teen tours
for 20 years, and has worked
with Magellan’s founder for
years. “Many of our students
write their college entrance essays about life-changing study
abroad experiences, and a Magellan experience can certainly
fuel that all important essay,”
says Ms. Kaulig. “After living
the culture and speaking the
language for nearly 4 weeks,
these experiences dramatically
increase language comprehension and fluency, adding the
confidence they need to tackle
a higher level of language
studies and succeed in their
Advanced Placement Language
exams.”

is awesome and one that I am
most excited about.” Billy H.,
Harvard-Westlake School
Total immersion in the culture provides a different experience for the typical American
teen. This is not just any summer camp. To augment their
classroom learning, students
live with local families in order
to fully experience their unique
daily routines.meals, family
conversations, and family outings. Chris Chabaudie, founder
of Magellan , “Students are exposed to a foreign perspective,
allowing them to experience a
different way of life - as a resident, not as a tourist. I don’t
want finances to be an impediment to a curious young mind,
which needs to be nurtured
and challenged. Because of
my own personal experience
with study travel programs at a
young age, I want to offer these
unique experiences to as many
A myriad of activities adds
a “fun” element to what teens
could potentially view as “a
boring summer of study.” Even
the most jaded minds are met
with activities that encourage young people to stretch
beyond their comfort zone
- flamenco dancing, anyone?
While students have their own
leisure time, many afternoons
and evenings are filled with art
workshops, visits to historical
sites, and activities that include
local teens. Who says learning has to always occur in the
classroom? “I have traveled
with Chris for three summers
with three different experiences, and every year I come home
with a better appreciation for
Spain and the Spanish people. I
am very comfortable there. The
travel portion of the program
With student safety at the
heart of each Magellan program, the company provides
every student with comprehensive travel insurance provided
by Royal Bank of Canada Insurance. This coverage includes: travel accident, medical, baggage, trip cancellation
and trip interruption insurance,
providing protection as soon as
the first payment is received in
Magellan’s office.
To ensure quality and safety,
the company limits the number of program participants,
at times closing programs
early to the disappointment
of late enrollees. Because
their programs are operated
entirely by Magellan staff,
from chaperoned group flights
departing major US hubs to
Magellan staffed excursions
and activities in the host country, there are no tour package
resellers or third party brokers
involved. This way, Magellan
achieves the highest quality
while keeping costs down, in
spite of a strong Euro. “We’re
trying to add more programs to
accommodate growth, but our
growth will continue to match
our values:
No program will be launched
that doesn’t meet our strict criteria for high educational value
and safety at an affordable
price,” says Mr. Chabaudie.

It’s easy being green-If you’re considering flooring
Don’t let anyone tell you it’s
not easy being green. When it
comes to floor covering, making
a “green” choice is easier than
ever.
Green refers to a substance
or manufacturing method that
uses renewable or sometimes
raw and/or recycled material or
energy sources. Nonrenewable
materials are those that come
from sources that once depleted
are gone forever.
In addition to green flooring
products, there is another
category called “sustainable.”
Sustainable flooring products
are those that minimize impact
on the environment at each phase
of their life cycle.
“Some of the most popular
green products include cork,
bamboo and linoleum,” said
Christopher Davis, president
of the World Floor Covering
Association. “Many new and
existing flooring products
qualify as sustainable, including
recycled/reclaimed wood and
carpet; natural carpets made
from cotton, wools and grass;
ceramic tiles; stone; chlorinefree, resilient, recycled rubber
and VCT (Vinyl Composition
Tiles) vinyl.”
in a wide variety of colors and
styles.
Bamboo: Unlike hardwood,
bamboo does not come from
trees. It’s a fast-growing grass.
It can grow from sprouts to
harvesting in three to five years,
so an acre of bamboo can provide
more flooring than an acre of
trees. When bamboo shoots
are cut, the roots remain intact,
and fresh, new sprouts grow
in their place. The dense root
mass of bamboo helps prevent
soil erosion and provides a
viable crop opportunity in hilly
acres where other crops cannot
grow.
Here’s some information on
some of the sustainable floor
surfaces available today;
Cork: To create cork floors,
only the bark is extracted from
the tree, meaning that the tree is
left completely intact. In time,
the tree will grow a new layer
of bark that can be harvested
again. Cork floors absorb sound,
unlike harder surfaces, and come
Linoleum: Linoleum
flooring is manufactured from
renewable resources, such as
linseed oil, resin, wood flour,
flax, cork powder and pigments.
Its durability makes it very
suitable for high-traffic areas.
Linoleum is also naturally
biodegradable, and because
it is naturally anti-bacterial,
there are no chemical agents
Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities
of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you
have long postponed. -Glenville Kleiser
needed in its manufacture or
maintenance. It’s available in
rug form, too.
The following products
are examples of sustainable
flooring:
Carpet: Sustainable carpets
must use postconsumer`
and industrial materials,
biodegradable dyes and solutions
and recycled wastewater.
Hardwood: Sustainable
hardwood floors are made from
recycled wood and/or antique
woods that offer a timeless
weathered look.
How green is your
flooring choice? Options
such as linoleum (shown
above), bamboo and
ceramic floors are better
for the planet than you
might imagine.
Ceramic: Sustainable ceramic
floors are primarily made from
natural and renewable resources
and are exceptionally durable.
Stone: Sustainable stone floors
offer low-extraction impact on
the planet and are exceptionally
long lasting.
tile, made primarily of limestone, is long lasting and offers a high
performance rating.
Resilient: Durable, longlasting, sustainable resilient
floors are available chlorine-free
and are typically made from
recycled vinyls and plastics.
Green and sustainable products are produced around the world,
including a number of developing nations. Purchasing these products
is not just good for the planet but can help support the people in
these countries.
Rubber: Sustainable rubber
floors, a popular trend lately, can
be made from recycled tires and
other materials.
“The flooring-covering market caught on to the green movement
earlier than most,” said Davis. “Manufacturers have spent huge
portions of their budgets to bring more products to market that are
easier on the environment.”

About Your Health
Retired Sailor improves her life through physical fitness
by Mass Communication
Specialist 2nd Class (SW)
Alexia M. Riveracorrea,
With the Navy spring physical
readiness test (PRT) drawing
nearer, Sailors are preparing
physically and mentally for the
biannual challenge.
In conjunction, some shipmates might even feel stress or
doubt about the PRT, thoughts
that could hinder their motivation, such as: Am I practicing
the right workout regimen? Am
I on the right diet? How will I do
on the day of the PRT?
Well, one retired Sailor’s story
could not only inspire Sailors
working to maintain physical
readiness, but anyone practicing
to meet their fitness goals.
It was more than three years
ago retired Lt. Karen Brabandt
underwent an extensive physical, but feeling fatigued, she
decided her body was due. She
received results from her doctor
and was in disbelief that her
health entered the danger zone.
“My kidney function results
were unsatisfying, and besides
that, my cholesterol, blood
pressure and heart rate were
elevated,” said Brabandt. “My
relatives were really concerned
about me. At this point, I realized that the best gift I could
give my family and ultimately
myself, was to get and stay
healthy.”
Brabandt needed a program
that was structured and simple,
would push her forward and
had clear and definable fitness
routines. Most importantly, she
needed a healthy program that
would produce major results in
minimal time to get her health
back into the safety zone.
“I started by educating myself in every manner possible,”
said Brabandt. “After I read
the Body for Life’s research on
high-intensity training routines,
the high-point technique and the
nutritional component, I was
truly inspired and motivated to
get started.”
Body for Life is a structured
12-week fitness and nutrition
program where challengers
compete against themselves to
get into the best shape of their
lives. The challenge was open
to 36 countries and more than
100,000 contestant packets were
delivered in 2007. Competitors
were judged on their physical
transformation through beforeand-after photographs, and on
their internal transformation,
based on an inner transformation essay.
“I wrote out my goals, and I
printed the 12-week training-forlife schedule,” said Brabandt.
“I began a food journal using
a nutrition chart. My husband
quickly became my success
coach; he kept me on schedule
by assisting in my weekly meal
preparation and partnering with
me in my 5 a.m. cardio.”
Brabandt’s co-workers, nurses, clinicians and administrators also became her soundingboard, consistently providing
her with meaningful feedback
and encouragement. The Navy’s
Morale, Welfare and Recreation
gym staff, and even Navy pilots
who use the gym, pushed Brabandt to meet her goals.
“Everyone around me helped
me to discover and recognize
my true potential, giving me
strength to keep going when
perceived circumstances told me
to quit,” said Brabandt. “They
empowered me to refocus on
my goals.”
Upon completion of her 84th
day, she had regained her health.
Her cholesterol levels were back
to normal; she lost 12 percent
body fat and improved her overall attitude about incorporating
exercise back into her life.
“I feel better about myself,”
said Brabandt. “I have developed
stronger internal characteristics
and competencies to hold myself
accountable to my new lifestyle
commitments.”
As an added bonus, Brabandt
won the 2007 Body for Life
challenge championship in the
category for women 46 and over,
after losing 24 pounds in 12
weeks. She was recognized
for her achievement, Feb. 29,
in Columbus, Ohio, during the
Body for Life Expo and Night of
Champions ceremony.
the new book, “Champions, Body
for Life,” due to release June 3.
“The most rewarding benefits
of completing in the challenge
were the transformations of my
body, mind and spirit,” said Brabandt. “But as a competitor, I lost
fat, gained muscle and increased
self-confidence.”
She received $20,000, a Body
for Life champion leather jacket,
trophy, home gym, reimbursement
of all Energy-Athletics-Strength
products purchased during the
challenge, and will be featured in
Protect your bright eyes from the sunshine this year
Hotter weather means more
days in the sun are ahead. But
before you ditch your jacket and
head outside, remember to grab
your sunglasses.
Long-term sun exposure increases your chance for cataracts
and retina damage, and small
amounts of exposure add up. If
you work, drive, play sports, take
walks or run errands while the
sun shines, you can irreversibly
damage your baby blues - and
your baby’s baby blues. Even
young children need sunglasses.
The right sunglasses should
block 99 percent to 100 percent
of both UV-A and UV-B radiation
and 75 percent to 90 percent of
visible light. They should keep
you comfortable, fashionable and
able to distinguish traffic signals.
Naval Medical Center’s
galley closed for renovations
Naval Medical Center San Diego’s galley is undergoing a complete
floor renovation, with anticipated reopening in late July or early
August. During this time a limited choice of cold food options will
be available in Café Balboa, however, a number of other vendors
located in the food court and basement of building one will have a
wide variety of food selections available. Dining room seating will
be limited, but additional seating will be provided in the courtyard.
Other food vendors located in the courtyard area will be supplemented by increased staff as needed. We appreciate your understanding
and apologize for any inconvenience during this renovation.
Using neutral gray lenses will
help you appreciate all the colors
in that summer sunset.
Optometric Association (AOA)
provides these sunglass-shopping
guidelines:
- Make sure the tint looks uniform across each lens. If you’re
considering gradient lenses, make
sure that the lens color changes
gradually from light to dark.
- Hold the glasses at arm’s
length and look through them at
a straight line. If the line distorts,
buy another pair.
- Try on the glasses in front of a
mirror. If you can easily see your
eyes, look for darker lenses. This
does not apply to light-sensitive
or photochromatic lenses.
Different lenses suit different activities. Polarized lenses
work well by the water but can
provide distracting glare on the
golf course. If you play contact
sports, look for polycarbonate
lenses, which protect against
impact. Wrap-around frames add
protection, too.
When it comes to evaluating
sunglasses, labels and price tags
mean nothing. The government
does not regulate UV protection
or lens quality, so every sunglass
brand creates its own claims. In
studies, some expensive lenses proved less protective than
cheaper pairs, and dark lenses can
actually block less UV radiation
than lighter shades.
Looking to buy? The American
If buying a new pair of sunglasses suddenly sounds complex, just look for the American
Optometric Association’s Seal
of Certification and Acceptance,
which guarantees vision products.

deployment. The Nimitz CSG is
currently operating in the U.S.
7th Fleet operating area.
“Even if we don’t finish today,
we consider it a plus,” said
Chargaulaf. “We’re dealing
with people that need help and
were getting help to be able to
do that.”
Operating in the Western
Pacific and Indian Oceans, the
7th Fleet is the largest of the
forward-deployed fleets with
approximately 50 ships, 120
aircraft and 20,000 Sailors and
Marines assigned at any given
time.
After a few hours, the
small group of Sailors nearly
completed painting two-story
building.
Jerry Pura, a Catholic Social
Services social worker, said
that the idea of the program is
for homeless residents to live in
the units for a maximum of two
years to develop their job skills
and to help prepare them to make
a fresh start.
“It was fun and it’s for a good
cause”, said Aviation Machinist’s
Mate 1st Class (AW/SW) Rodel
Delosreyes. “We spent time
helping people that need it and
that’s important. I was glad
that we were able to get the job
done.”
Catholic Social Services
employees and residents were
happy to see the Sailors volunteer
some of their time to help the
community.
“This was a very successful
COMREL,” said Cmdr. Francis
Foley, Nimitz chaplain. “We
got a lot done and it was all
accomplished because of
teamwork. We started working
upon arrival and the energy of
the group carried us through
from start to finish.”
“This is very much
appreciated,” said John
Chargaulaf, project manager.
“We look forward to getting help
like this, and it’s not everyday
that we get it.”

SAN DIEGO - The crew
of an unusual, high-speed
vessel used to support
special operations forces was
awarded the Meritorious Unit
Commendation (MUC) April
22 during a ceremony at Naval
Special Warfare Command.
Joint Venture (HSV-X1)
was praised for its mobility
capabilities during experimental
employment with Naval Special
Warfare from June 12, 2005 to
Aug. 30, 2006.
“It was certainly a welldeserved award for the crew,”
said Capt. John Womer, an
officer involved with the project.
“They did a great job. It was a
unique experiment for the Special
Operations Forces, Navy, and the
Army in that personnel from all
three elements worked together
during the deployment.”
Joint Venture served as a
mobile staging base for its
military support missions,
significantly improving access
to Southeast Asia’s remote
areas where there are very
few opportunities to establish
protected bases.
“Joint Venture’s shallow draft
and non-military appearance
allowed it access to expansive
and remote coastal regions,”
said Cmdr. Thomas Shaw, the
vessel’s commanding officer
at the time. “The ship’s speed
allowed it to provide rapid
mobility and forward basing in
an area that covers millions of
square miles of ocean.”
The multi-purpose Joint
Venture is an aluminum hull
catamaran equipped to carry
325 passengers and travel up to
3,000 miles at speeds up to 40
knots per hour. Its flight deck
is used for refueling and rearming helicopters, as well as
the launching and recovery of
rigid-hull inflatable boats. It can
also carry any type of storage
box needed, and be reconfigured
electronically for a variety of land
and sea operations. Lastly, it can
launch and recover unmanned
aerial vehicles in support of joint
maritime and ground special
operations forces.
“If you think of taking the
operational elements of a land
base and putting it aboard a
ship, we could move this base
anywhere and keep it in an
area for as long as we needed,”
Womer said.
Joint Venture is also cited for
its port visits to remote areas in
Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia,
and the Philippines in support
of regional engagements and
humanitarian efforts. Most
notably, Joint Venture provided
relief supplies to Zamboanga
City, an area of the Philippines
besieged by years of terrorist
and separatist activities.

NSAWC’s EP-3 training school prepares Sailors for the Fleet
by MC2 Michelle Lucht
N A S FA L L O N , N e v. Naval Strike and Air Warfare
Center’s (NSAWC) Electronic
Reconnaissance Weapons School
(ERWS) facilitates training
for naval aircrew for the EP-3
aircraft and its counterparts: RC135 for the Air force and RC-12
for the Army.
Tr a i n i n g i s c o n d u c t e d
throughout the year by means
of three different courses, Strike
Integration (SI), Joint Advanced
Tactical Signals Intelligence
Training Program (JATSTP),
and Reconnaissance Tactics
Instructor Course (RTIC).
The courses are designed to
build from each other; students
need to attend the SI course
before JATSTP, and then if
they are selected they may be
allowed to attend the RTIC
course. To ensure the students
understand the information
being presented to them they are
given written exams and quizzes
which are graded. They also
participate in practical exercises
and Mission Avionics System
Trainer (MAST) events.
ERWS instructor Avionics
Technician 2nd Class Richard
Boyk explains, “MAST is a
ten person trainer designed to
simulate the equipment onboard
the EP-3. The MAST allows
us to fly along with the air
wings without ever leaving the
ground.” An ERWS instructor
observes the students during the
practical and MAST exercises
and then grades the students on
their performance.
debriefing, and operating the
MAST during large force
exercises in the integrated and
advanced training phases of
the NSAWC CVW training
program.
SI, the initial training course,
is two weeks long and consists
of one or two EP-3 crews and
is conducted every time there
is Carrier Air Wing (CVW)
training at NSAWC. Training
is divided into two phases.
Phase I starts with three days of
academics and mission planning
creating a base for Carrier Strike
Group (CSG) operations.
Having the EP-3 crews and
the CVW’s train together allows
for increased tactical proficiency
in the use of the EP-3 weapons
systems during support of the
CSG when they are in theater.
While training at NSAWC the
two groups are able to design
a plan on how they will work
together face to face, rather than
just the phone calls or e-mails
that are used once deployed.
Phase II consists of daily
mission planning, briefing/
JATSTP training is conducted
four times a year and the course
is two weeks. The course is
designed to produce Fleet Air
Reconnaissance Squadron (VQ)/
Naval Information Operations
Command (NIOC) Air Combat
Training Continuum (ACTC)
Level 4 positional instructors.
To facilitate this training
instructors from all NSAWC
departments assist in providing a
core curriculum of United States
Naval and Joint warfare tactics.
Guest lecturers are brought in
to provide tailored training on a
variety of relevant topics.
The students participate in
simulator and practical exercise
training events allowing the
crews to have realistic, handson training on effective tactical
Signals Intelligence (SIGINT)
platform employment.
This course provides the
unique opportunity for cross
talk between Navy VQ/ NIOC
aircrew, Air Force Airborne and
Ground Mission Supervisors, and
Army RC-12 aircrew to discuss
effective SIGINT employment
and share experiences.
The third course that the ERWS
facilitates is RTIC. This course
lasts four weeks and is conducted
twice a year. RTIC training
provides graduate ACTC Level
5 training, standardized unit
level training, crew certification
training, and increased readiness
and war fighting capability.
Emphasis is focused on training
students to become weapons

School.
and tactics instructors. This
course is for EP-3 officer and
enlisted aircrew that have orders
to ERWS or the Wing Training
Unit (WTU). The ERWS increases tactical
knowledge for EP-3 aircrews,
while also opening channels
of communication between
members of different aircrew
platforms that work together
while deployed in theater.
“The training that is offered by
ERWS is not available anywhere
else. If commands do not send
their people here the squadrons
will suffer from a lack of tactical
expertise.” said Boyk.
Cmdr. James Laingen, head
of the Command and Control
Department at NSAWC under
which the ERWS falls, echoes
this sentiment.
“NSAWC is the Navy’s
tactical Center of Excellence
for air combat, and the ERWS
is the Center of Excellence for
the Navy’s airborne electronic
reconnaissance effort," he said.
"The instructors are the best
of the best, and provide an
incredible learning experience
for fleet operators who come
here to train.”

Makin Island graduated the
Damage Control Familiarization Safety, Environmental
and Occupational Health Programs (DC CREWFAM) at
Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding (NGSB) West Administrative Annex April 11.
DC CREWFAM is designed
to provide LHD 8 crewmembers with basic damage control
(DC) processes, familiarization
with the DC systems aboard
the ship, and to review fundamentals covered in the personal
qualification standards (PQS)
for all personnel on board.

A. Dominquez
Machinery Repairman 1st
Class (SW/AW) Calandra Crawford, who is also a DC academy
instructor, attended the course
and feels very strongly about
damage control and its purpose
on Makin Island.
“Even though LHD 8 has
smart ship capabilities, the ship
itself will not save our lives,”
said Crawford. “There are still
a lot of situations and hazards
on board that would require all
individuals to respond rapidly.
I personally have acquired some
friends on board LHD 8, and
don’t want to lose any of them
due to lack of knowledge of
basic DC.”
All Makin Island Sailors are
required to complete the Basic
DC PQS within six months
of reporting to the command.
Chief Warrant Officer Rob
Morrow, Makin Island’s damage control division officer, said
the goal aboard Makin Island
is for proficiency and working knowledge -- not just PQS
completion.
“Many Makin Island systems
are new to LHDs; some are
new to the Navy,” said Morrow.
“Regardless of the experience a
Sailor brings to the table, there is
no individual that has been qualified on a ship like LHD 8. These
courses are meant to help prepare
us for the challenges ahead.”
NGSB personnel will continue to hold approximately
260 CREWFAM courses for
crew members both at PCU in
Pascagoula and the precommissioning detachment (PCD)
in San Diego, Calif. until three
weeks prior to Makin Island’s
departure from Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding.
Following delivery of the
ship to the Navy, Makin Island
crewmembers will sail the ship
from Pascagoula to San Diego
where the ship will be commissioned.
Sailors, who are in their nine
to 12-month negotiating window for orders and want to be
part of the pre-commissioning
command, can contact their
rating detailer and ask to be
released to the pre-commissioning detailer for further assignment to Makin Island. Makin
Island currently has almost half
of its 1,100-person crew.

Red Bull Air Race returns to San Diego, the home of Naval aviation
After a phenomenal start to
the 2008 Red Bull Air Race
World Series in Abu Dhabi this
month and Paul Bonhomme’s
resounding victory in front of an
enthusiastic crowd of 400,000
spectators, the global motorsports competition moves on to
its second stop of the 10-race
season in San Diego, USA on
May 3 and 4.
The Red Bull Air Race airport
and flight operations will be
set up at the Naval Air Station,
North Island on Coronado Island, an active military facility,
which will be the base for the
twelve pilots and their teams
during race week.
Britain’s Paul Bonhomme
dominated the season opener in
the United Arab Emirates with
the fastest times in all flying sessions. He won last year’s race in
San Diego and will be looking
to repeat his performance there,
but he is up against defending
World Champion American
Mike Mangold who is confident about racing in front of a
home crowd. The Californian is
hoping to improve on his third
place result in Abu Dhabi after
coming in behind 2007 rookie
pilot Hannes Arch from Austria
who took second place.
Last year’s race track in San
Diego was considered one of the
most challenging. This year will
be no exception. Unlike the predominantly narrow tracks in the
World Series, San Diego’s harbor provides a much larger open
space to race. The track will be
packed with many twists, high
speed sharp turns and Air Gates
that are more difficult to negotiate. Pilot judgement is critical
in order to fly a perfect race
line. If they misjudge it or cut
corners too much they risk being unable to complete the turn
into the next Air Gate, which
could result in a slower time,
penalty seconds or in the worst
case disqualification. The race
track will be located in the Big
Bay between Coronado Island
and the spectacular downtown
skyline of San Diego.
Last year over 50,000 people turned out to watch the
race in San Diego. Spectators
will be able to enjoy unprecedented views of the action
from the Embarcadero Marine
Park peninsulas. Qualifying
takes place on Saturday, May
3 followed by Race Day on
Sunday, May 4. Tickets are
available at www.redbullairrace.com.
In another first for the Red
Bull Air Race World Series,
back to back races will be held
in the United States. After the
race in San Diego’s Big Bay,
the competition will move on
to the Midwest four weeks
later, giving the American public a real chance to get to know
these incredible sportsmen.

Arbor glyphs: The biggest little secret of the American West
If you have never heard of
aspen tree carvings, or arbor
glyphs, you are not alone. Bits
and pieces of a century of sheepherding tradition in the American
West are recorded on the trunks
of aspen trees. These carvings
are spread across the landscapes
of ten or more states, including
California’s High Sierra. A few
date back to the 1890’s and beyond. They stand witness to the
ranchers and Basque immigrants
from Europe that passed through
Riverside and other areas to the
north and recorded their lives,
loves, and dreams. In addition
to the glyphs, archaeological remains include bread ovens, camp
sites, and historic trails. The San
Diego Archaeological Center
presents Dr. Judy Berryman,
archaeologist and historian, as
the Center’s Visiting Scholar
for May 10.
Dr. Berryman will share information regarding the arbor
glyphs and their significance in
providing a slice of localized
history. Dr. Berryman notes
that the arborglyphs provide
a “limited window of time,”
for recording and interpretation. Vandalism, disease, and
encroachment of conifers are
taking a toll on these silent
witnesses of the settlement of
the West.
Warning: while most of the
carvings are names, dates and
narrative sentences, some carvings depict human anatomy;
please consider this when attending the lecture.
Dr. Berryman is a senior
archaeologist and historian at
e2M, a national environmental
and engineering firm with offices
in San Diego. She has extensive
experience in fieldwork across
the Southwest, identifying and
evaluating archaeological and
historic sites at USMC Camp
Pendleton and Bridgeport, San
Clemente Island and Imperial
Valley. Currently, Dr. Berryman
is an adjunct professor at CSUSan Marcos teaching introductory anthropology courses.

members; suggested donation
for non-members is $5. Come

Enjoy good, clean fun and Cinco de Mayo
entertainment while helping others
The San Diego Blood Bank is
joining the South Bay Cinco de

alcohol and tobacco free festival
and blood and bone marrow
drive in Kimball Park, corner
of 12th St. and D Ave., National
City, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Bloodmobiles will be parked in
Kimball Park. The event is free
and open to the public.
The family-oriented festival
will include live entertainment,
food booths, prizes, children’s
activities, craft booths and
more. In addition attendees are
encouraged to donate blood and
join the National Marrow Donor
Program (NMDP®) registry,
according to San Diego Blood
Bank Board member Elvia
Saucedo.
donors who are Hispanic are also
greatly needed for the NMDP®
registry.
“Only about 12 percent of
the blood bank’s donors are of
Latino heritage, yet the Latino
population of San Diego County
has grown to 27%,”she said.
“At the same time, those who
are Latino often have type “O”
blood, which is the universal
donor and the type that is in the
greatest demand in our community.”
“Ultimately, with more Latino
donors, more Latino patients
will be assured that blood will
be available when needed and
marrow matches are more possible,” says Saucedo.
Since patients in need of
marrow transplants have the
greatest chance of finding a
match with someone of the same
ethnic background, potential
Anyone who is at least 17
years old, in generally good
health and weighs at least 110
pounds may qualify to donate
blood. To join the NMDP®
registry, potential donors must
be 18-60 and in good health.

appointment, call 1-800-4MYSDBB or visit www.sandiegobloodbank.org.

Free lawn bowling clinic rolls out May 10
The San Diego Lawn Bowling
Club is hosting a free clinic on
Saturday, May 10 from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Top-notch bowlers
provide individual instruction to
this distinctive game of finesse
and strategy that levels the playing field between young and old,
and men and women. The lawn
bowling greens are located at
the west end of the Laurel Street
Bridge and Balboa Drive.
The game of lawn bowling
traces its roots back several
thousand years, and historians suggest the game made its
way across Europe with Julius
Caesar’s centurions. The oldest
active club is at the Southampton
Old Bowling Green in England,
which was established in 1299
AD. One of the first greens in
the United States at Williamsburg, Virginia, is open for play
to this day. There are bowling
greens across the United States,
including Central Park in New
York and Golden Gate Park in
San Francisco. The greens in
Balboa Park were established in
1932 and celebrated their 75th
Anniversary last year.
The bowls vary in size, weight,
and degree of bias, or curvature.
The object of the game is to get
closest to a small white ball
called the jack, which may be
anywhere from 75 to 108 feet
away. The art of lawn bowling
is to gauge the curve and speed
of the bowl to arrive at the target
jack, thereby getting the shot.
While bowling may look like
a leisurely sport, the pace belies
the tension of competition, the
skill required, and the importance of strategy when choos-
ing where to deliver the bowls.
There is singles play, doubles
play, triples play, and fours play.
The Southwest Division of the
United States Lawn Bowling
Association, which includes San
Diego, has the most members
and a very active tournament
schedule throughout the year.
The San Diego Lawn Bowling
Club is the proud home of the
2007 U.S. Singles Champion,
along with two members of
the 2008 fours team that took
the gold at the China World
Bowls Championship, an event
that hosted 28 countries. This
accomplishment was a first for
the United States team at the
international level.

Aztecs win team championship at Mt. SAC Relays
The San Diego State track
and field squad put a lid on the
50th annual Mt. SAC Relays by
winning the Tartan Team Award
given to the meet’s top women’s
team, recording five additional NCAA regional qualifying
marks and posting six seasonal
bests on Sunday. SDSU also had
the winning 4x100-meter relay
team and the top 200 sprinter.
Shana Solomon was a member
of the aforementioned relay team
(Sherraine Pencil, Solomon, Alicia Lowery, Decontee Kaye) that
won the race in a season-best
and regional-qualifying time of
45.38 seconds. The junior from
Long Beach, Calif., also qualified for regionals after she won
the 200 with a 2008-best time
of 23.81. Additionally, Solomon
ran in the Olympic Development
section of the 100 and finished
with a regional-qualifying time
of 11.59 while finishing second.
Solomon is the first Aztec this
season to secure a spot at regionals in the 200 and has already
qualified for the regional meet
in the 100 and 4x100.
Kristin Olafsdottir, who earlier this year qualified for regionals in the 400-meter hurdles,
surpassed the qualifying mark
for a third time after she finished
the race in 1:00.81 to finish in
third place. The junior also ran
in the 100 hurdles and posted a
time of 14.50.
Decontee Kaye finished ninth
overall, but was the top Division
I athlete in the triple jump with
season-best and regional-qualifying leap of 42 feet, 9.50 inches.
She also jumped 19-0.00 in the
long jump, while Shana Watson
finished with a third-place distance of 19-4.75.
Seniors Sherraine Pencil and
Mandy Upuu enjoyed a solid day
after they both recorded season
bests in their respective events.
Pencil ran the 400 in 54.87 to
finish in fourth, while Upuu
logged a time of 2:11.45 in the
800. Pencil also competed in the
Olympic Development section
of the 200 and came in seventh
with a time of 24.46.
Jessika Hornsby, meanwhile,
ran in the 100 and completed the
race in 11.99 to establish a new
season best.
The Aztecs return to action
next week when they split their
squad with one going to Berkeley, Calif., for the Brutus Hamilton Invitational and the other
traveling to UC San Diego for
the Triton Invit
The Spring

Padres pick up manager Bud Black’s option for 2009 season
The San Diego Padres announced that the club has exercised Manager Bud Black’s
option for the 2009 season.
Black, 50, made his managerial debut with the Padres in
2007, leading the club to an
89-74 record. The 89 wins were
the most for San Diego since
the club won a franchise-record
98 contests in 1998. According
to the Elias Sports Bureau, the
Padres .546 winning percentage
under Black was the best for a
first-year manager (minimum
50 games) since Ken Macha
with Oakland (.593, 96-66) and
Bob Melvin with Seattle (.574,
93-69) in 2003. Additionally, the
last National League manager
with a winning percentage that
high in his first season was Bob
Brenly for Arizona (.568, 92-70)
in 2001.
Named the 16th manager in
franchise history on Nov. 9,
2006, Black joined the Padres
after seven seasons as the Los
Angeles Angels of Anaheim
pitching coach (2000-06). He
previously spent four years in the
Cleveland Indians organization,
holding the position of Special
Assistant to General Manager
John Hart for three years (199697, 1999) and pitching coach for
Cleveland’s Triple-A affiliate in
Buffalo for the 1998 season.
A left-handed pitcher, Black
pitched 17 years professionally,
including 15 seasons in the Majors with the Seattle Mariners
(1981), Kansas City Royals
(1982-88), Cleveland Indians
(1988-90, 1995), Toronto Blue
Jays (1990) and San Francisco
Giants (1991-94). In 398 Major
League games (296 starts), he
compiled a 121-116 record with
32 complete games, 12 shutouts, 11 saves and a 3.84 ERA
(876 ER/2053.1 IP). Black,
who played in two American
League Championship Series
with Kansas City in 1984-85
and was a member of the Royals
1985 World Series Champion
team, is only the third individual

“MILITARY NITES” Monday-Tuesday
Cancer patients and their
loved ones will be the focus of

1-mile non-competitive “Luminary Walk.” The day will kick
off at 8 a.m. with an opportunity
for participants to make a Luminary tribute sign ($10 donation)
that will be posted along the race
course. The Luminary Walk ($25
donation) will begin at 9 a.m.
and is designed to recognize
those who are being, or have
been, treated for cancer, and to
honor those who lost their battle
with the disease. Then at 10 a.m.
Tony Reid, M.D., Ph.D., of the
Moores UCSD Cancer Center,
will give a free talk on new
cancer therapies in the tented
exhibition area.
“The theme for this year’s

all patients going through cancer
are doing their personal best,
just like competing athletes,”
said Reid.
All proceeds from the two days
of events will benefit clinical
research being conducted at the
Moores UCSD Cancer Center.
Event details, fees and registration are all available online

DUDE, WE ARE REALLY
BUMMED OUT NOW: Even
though they had a bunch of
marijuana and $14,000 in cash
in their car, two men, high on the
demon weed, tailgated a car on
the Interstate in Columbus, Ind.
The other driver slowed to let
them pass, but they stayed with
him. Finally, he pulled over and
they did too. That’s when they
realized that the other driver
was an off-duty deputy sheriff.
He came back to their car to
see what was the matter, saw
them switch drivers, smelled
marijuana and arrested them.

By Caroline James — Zap2it
Aries (March 21 - April 20)
Meeting up with an old associate goes better than expected. You
were thinking you’d have a hard time reconnecting, but in truth, it
was as if you’d never left each other.
Taurus (April 21 - May 20)
You’ll want to seal the deal, but a partner isn’t so sure about this
one. Before charging ahead, it might behoove you to find out why.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Change isn’t at its best when it’s just for the sake of change.
That’s a lesson hard learned for you, but you’ll have to learn it.

Leo (July 21 - Aug. 21)
Trying to do the right thing by someone isn’t always easy. But it
is the right thing, after all. You may need to consult with someone
about how to do it all appropriately.
Virgo (Aug. 22 - Sept. 22)
An event did not go as smoothly as you would have liked it to, and
you’ve really got no one to blame but yourself.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
Looking to the future seems like a good idea, but you’re so focused on the present that it seems hard to do.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22)
You’ve got a good handle on what needs to be done; now there’s
just the doing that needs to happen.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23 - Dec. 20)
The benefit of looking twice is that you may see something you
didn’t see before.
Capricorn (Dec. 21 - Jan. 19)
Talking it through is a great idea, especially when others are involved. You didn’t think it would work out, but it looks as if it has.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
Getting sensible about something is a lot easier said than done.
You’d like to pretend you’re pretty clear on this, but the fact of the
matter is that you’re not. It’s easier to give in on this one.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
Someone you thought would come through has let you down, and
you’re not sure what to do about it.

When you want something this badly, it’s hard to distract you from
your goal. Fact of the matter is, though, that what you want may
not be in your best interest.
