In honor of Energy Action Month, naval commands and organizations are demonstrating their commitment to energy resiliency by reducing energy consumption and promoting awareness of energy as an enabler of combat capability. Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Energy, Installations and Environment Dennis McGinn and California Energy Commission Chairman Dr. Robert Weisenmiller will headline the California Energy Collaboration Conference at Stanford University’s Hoover Institute Oct. 12. The day’s agenda includes McGinn and Weisenmiller signing a Memorandum of Understanding between the Navy and California that formalizes their ongoing energy partnership. There will also be a panel with former Secretary of State George Shultz to discuss the importance of energy efficiency and renewable energy development, an announcement for new renewable energy projects at three Navy installations in California and a statewide electric vehicle initiative. Other activities will be taking place throughout the month, including Navy energy exhibits at the Navy Birthday Reception, the Neptune Festival, Navy Exchanges (NEXs) and the Nauticus Museum in the Hampton Roads area; energy exhibits at San Francisco and Baltimore fleet weeks and during the commissioning of the USS Zumwalt; and coordinated social media campaigns with operational and shore focused energy content by numerous commands. Senior Navy leaders will be releasing energyoriented videos during Energy Action Month to raise awareness of smart energy practices and highlight the service’s commitment to optimizing energy efficiency. The videos will be posted online along with other energy videos recorded in the past year. In addition, the Navy’s Task Force Energy will release new content as part of the Energy Warrior App, which is available for free download at app stores. Energy Action Month is an opportunity to engage with friends and colleagues on approaches for utilizing energy more strategically in our day-to-day jobs and in support of the mission. National Military Improvised threats organization becomes part of threat reduction agency by Cheryl Pellerin WASHINGTON - On Sept. 30 the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Agency, originally a task force known as the Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization, became part of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, according to a defense official. eliminate and counter the threats and mitigate their effects. As the legislation required, the transition of 255 civilians and 110 military personnel under DTRA was completed Sept. 30, DTRA Acting Director Shari Durand told DoD News in a recent interview. The move was directed by Congress in Section 1532 of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2016. Section 1532 rejected a March 2015 move by the DoD to make JIEDDO - whose name was changed in April 2015 to the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Agency, or JIDA - a new combat support agency under the undersecretary of defense for acquisition, technology and logistics. The joint explanatory statement that accompanied the 2016 NDAA cited congressional “concerns” about the transition and instead required “a new strategy and implementation plan … that would provide for a more streamlined approach to integrating the roles, missions and activities of … JIDA into an existing military department.” In February 2016 DTRA was The effort began in February, she added, and was extensive.

DTRA also provides capabilities to reduce, “With 400 plus people -- all the systems involved and for the civilians all the pay systems -- all of it had to be changed. We had to make information systems talk to one another. It was a huge and heavy lift and the focus has been that there can’t be any degradation to the support that we are providing to the warfighter,” Durand said. That has been on the forefront of everyone’s mind, she added, “that all this has to be done in the background and the mission can’t suffer.” DTRA calls its new component the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization, or JIDO. DTRA is based at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, and JIDO is based in Reston, Virginia, and will stay there for now, Durand said. Both organizations have personnel in the field in countries worldwide. “As an agency we now have the responsibility for [weapons of mass destruction] threats and improvised threats to the warfighter. So it will all be here at DTRA,” Durand said. JIDO’s mission, according to DTRA’s August 2016 report to Congress on the JIDO transition plan, is to enable DoD actions to counter improvised threats with tactical responsiveness. This is done, the report said, through rapid acquisition supporting combatant command efforts to prepare for and adapt to battlefield surprise in fighting counterterrorism, counterinsurgency and related areas, including counter-improvised explosive devices. “Right now there are clear distinctions in the mission space for JIDO and for DTRA. You can think of it in terms of JIDO … looking at immediate threats to the warfighter on the battlesee JIDA, page 4 Armed Forces Dispatch (619) 280-2985 Published by Western States Weeklies, Inc.

Study where you serve and prepare ‘Feds Feeds Families’ dishes up high mark to fight hunger bBy Amaani Lyle WASHINGTON - Defense Department military and civilian members participated in a worldwide campaign that resulted in the donation of nearly 3.3 million pounds of perishable and nonperishable food to fill local food banks that provide food for families in need. Despite this year’s campaign being delayed for a month, the department has surpassed last year’s total by collecting 3,289,418 pounds. This year’s campaign is an even bigger success because it collected 12,338 more pounds than last year in only 60 days, said Valerie Thompson, who served as the DoD champion, or the person who oversaw this year’s Feds Feed Families campaign for the Defense Department. “When you’re out of school that means you’re home, and the need for food is greater. So, the federal government chose to conduct the campaign during the summer months to fill the shelves in the food banks across the country,” Thompson said. “DoD pulled together and this donation was not only the most we’ve ever seen, but was done in less time.” She noted that this year’s total equates to roughly 54,824 pounds of food donations or five semi-trucks full - each day - for 60 days. The Feds Feed Families campaign was established in April 2009, when President Barack Obama signed the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, which encouraged federal employees to expand their service and support to communities, Thompson said. The Office of Personnel Management answered the call and charged chief human capital officers to lead the program throughout the federal government, allowing the DoD in particular to campaign and collect food far beyond the National Capital Region in concert with the Department of Agriculture’s efforts. “We’ve been able to help others throughout the country and the world,” said Berthina Jamison, civilian personnel policy strategic program analyst. She described “gleaning organizations” throughout the United States, including Washington, Ohio, Illinois, and Alaska, in which farmers allow DoD volunteers to visit crops and pick the second harvest for families in need. “[The harvests] go directly to the food banks so people can put it on their tables,” Jamison said.

So DoD, in conjunction with farmers, has been able to gather and move crops from warehouses and farms to food banks, she said. Randy Eller, the Defense Commissary Agency’s deputy director of logistics, said 155 commissaries served as Feds Feed Families donation dropoff points, and customers also purchased prepared gift packages which also made their way around the world, thanks to year-round partnerships with food banks.

The organizations began talking a year before Congress directed the DTRA transition, the director said, just after the Defense Department decided to make JIDA a combat support agency under AT&L. “A year ago we were helping JIDA learn what it’s like to be a defense agency and were helping to stand them up and be a sister agency,” she explained, adding that JIDA officials “asked for DTRA’s assistance in learning what it’s like to put a budget together, to stand up a human resources shop, those types of things.” The JIDA transition as an element under DTRA was nothing DTRA expected, Durand said, but the missions fit. “Both organizations deal with threats against the warfighter,” she added. “They’re very different problem sets, vitally important to the warfighter, the nation and our allies. There are some overlapping customers and I think there are capabilities that we can leverage and that we’ll learn more about as the integration takes place over time.” Given the technical capabilities inherent in DTRA and JIDO, the director said she knows synergies exist that the organizations haven’t yet fully exploited. “As we start the learning process and understand more what each organization is doing,” Durand said, “that’s when I think the greatest capabilities and the greatest synergy will come, and that will benefit the warfighter tremendously.” Taking two distinct organizations and putting one under the other is a challenge and a cultural change and will take time, she added. 10460 Mission Gorge Rd Santee, CA 92071 619-749-0742 www.socaltruck.net • Truck Bed Covers • New and Used Camper Shells • Side Steps • Bed Liner • Trucks Racks • Tool Boxes • Fuel Tanks • Carpet Kits • Tow hitches • Mufflers • MILITARY DISCOUNT Get $25.00 off $300 or more with this ad You name it, We’ve Got It Veterans News Nomination deadline extended for County Veteran of the Year Calling all veterans, supporters, nonprofit organizations and corporations - have you submitted a nomination for that veteran who has continued to serve after service?

WASHINGTON - Secretary of VA Robert McDonald announced Sept. 29 the award of $3.4 million in grant funding offered through the Grant and Per Diem Program to 16 community agencies that provide enhanced services for homeless veterans with special needs. The GPD Program promotes the development and provision of supportive housing and services to help homeless veterans to have stable residences, increase their skills and income, and achieve independence. Specifically, GPD special need grant funding assists with additional VA selects USDA as its federal shared service provider WASHINGTON – The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has selected the Department of Agriculture (USDA) as its federal shared service provider to deliver a modern financial management solution that will replace the existing system and improve financial transparency and processing across the Department. “The Department followed a rigorous process in selecting USDA,” said Interim Assistant Secretary for Management and Interim Chief Financial Officer Edward J. Murray. “Demonstrating a truly integrated decisionmaking process, subject matter experts across VA participated in intense week-long workshops and provided feedback to ensure we selected the right partner for transformation success.” In making this selection, VA also leveraged best practices and lessons learned from Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the Government AcEnter for a chance to win De2 countability Office (GAO), partment of Homeland Security (DHS), Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and others. proven IT solution to better serve its financial management needs. This partnership demonstrates VA’s commitment to work with other agency partners to reduce duplication and redundancy across the government, while also improving both the quality and agility of administrative services. “As a top FY17 VA priority, this effort will increase the transparency, accuracy, timeliness and reliability of VA’s financial information,” said Deputy Secretary Sloan Gibson. “It’s critical that VA continues to implement solutions that result in improved care and services to our Veterans with fiscal accountability to American taxpayers.” operating costs of transitional housing and services for special need groups such as women, chronically mental ill, frail elderly, terminally ill, and those with minor dependents. “GPD Special Need Grants exemplify VA’s response to the wide range of needs of subpopulations of homeless Veterans,” said McDonald. “These 16 grants strengthen the continuum of VA services to help the most vulnerable veterans become stably housed and achieve greater self-determination.” As a result of these and other efforts, the number of U.S. veterans experiencing homelessness has been cut nearly in half since 2010. As of Sept. 16, 29 communities and two states have confirmed and publicly announced that they have effectively ended veteran homelessness, serving as models for others across the nation.

VA announces $3.4 million in funding to help the homeless Career & Education DoD announces new-hire probationary period NETPDC selects education by Terri Moon Cronk The probationary period for many new civilian employees hired by the Defense Department on or after Nov. 26, 2015, has changed from one year to two years, the acting deputy assistant secretary of defense for civilian personnel policy said. Julie Blanks confirmed the change to the statute governing the probationary period in a Sept. 27 in a memorandum to human resources directors. The new law took effect Nov. 26, 2015, as part of the fiscal year 2016 National Defense Authorization Act, said DoD spokesman Eric Pahon. The new probationary period affects employees who are appointed to permanent positions in the competitive service, and anyone who received career DoD appointments in the Senior Executive Service on or after Nov. 26, 2015, Blanks’ memo noted. The change doesn’t apply to employees appointed prior to that date or those appointed in excepted service, the spokesman said. “DoD appointees serving a probationary period who were appointed before Nov. 26, 2015, are not affected by the new law and will continue to complete a one-year probationary period,” Pahon said. “The [one-year] supervisory probationary period … is not affected by the new two-year probationary period,” he added. “However, those employees who are newly appointed to a supervisory position who are required to serve both a supervisory probationary period and a probationary period … will serve [both] concurrently.” The law also allows DoD and its military departments to “exercise their discretion to extend a covered employee’s probationary period past the new School Directory Are you ready to leverage your BSN & take the next step in your career?

Probationary terms can vary when an employee is appointed to a new position outside his or her current agency, officials said: -- An employee transferring from another agency who has already completed a probationary period under an initial appointment in the competitive service, having attained full appeal rights to the Merit Systems Protection Board, does not have to serve another probationary period under this authority. -- An employee transferring from another agency who receives a career appointment in the Senior Executive Service in the DoD on or after Nov. 26, 2015, must serve a two-year probationary period. -- An employee transferring from another agency who has not completed a probationary period and is appointed to a position in DoD may be required to complete a new probationary period. Credit for prior federal civilian service toward completion of a probationary period may apply in accordance with applicable federal regulation. The reason for the change in the law stems from the increasingly complex nature of much of the work performed by DoD employees, Pahon explained. One year often does not allow sufficient time for a supervisor to form conclusions regarding the performance of a new employee, he pointed out. For example, supervisors might not have adequate time to observe employees if the new hires must spend much of the first year in training before beginning work, often rotate through various offices within the first year of employment, or because occupations are projectbased and new employees don’t have an opportunity to demonstrate all the skills associated with their positions, he said. “Regardless of the reason, the longer probationary period offers employees a greater opportunity to showcase their talents and for supervisors to properly assess their capabilities,” Pahon added. Affected employees are encouraged to speak with their supervisors or human resources contact, he said. technician as Civilian of the quarter by Ed Barker An education technician for the Navy College Office at Naval Base Coronado was honored as the Naval Education and Training Professional Development Center (NETPDC) Civilian of the quarter for the third quarter of 2016 at an All Hands ceremony recently. Filipe (Phil) Cataquiz, a 25year Navy College employee, received the award based on his service to more than 45,000 service members in the Coronado area, including working with the Navy College Office staff and coordination of the San Diego Education Fair Week. Cataquiz said he appreciated the COQ recognition, and being able to help the many military members in Southern California. “As a veteran and current college student, I’ve been in their shoes, and realize the value of pointing them in the right direction so they can make informed choices about their education,” said Cataquiz. “You get a lot of job satisfaction when you help people with their education and then run into them after they have made their way up the ranks.” At the award ceremony, NETPDC Commanding Officer, Capt. Lee Newton said he is constantly reminded of how much skill and knowledge the talented civilian professionals on the VOLED staff bring to the Navy. “Mr. Cataquiz is a direct example of the profound effect our people have on our Sailors - an impact that will be felt for the rest of our service members’ careers and beyond.” said Newton. “Voluntary education prepares our personnel for the future with the ability to think analytically and improve processes.” Susan Hannasch, director of the Navy College Office at Coronado, said that Cataquiz’ hands-on approach allowed him to conduct more than 55 command briefings and help more than 8500 patrons that came through the NCO door. “Phil was also able to obtain an on-base location for the Western Navy College Program for Afloat College Education (NCPACE) division, resulting in a significant cost avoidance for the VOLED program, helping many Sailors in the process,” said Hannasch. “His efforts to market and publicize VOLED included developing and maintaining Navy College links on the Commander, Naval Installations Command website, keeping our Sailors up-to-date with the latest education information.” NETPDC, located on board NAS Pensacola’s Saufley Field, provides products and services that enable and enhance education, training, career development, and personnel advancement throughout the Navy. Primary elements of the command include the Voluntary Education Department, the Navy Advancement Center and the Resources Management Department.

Early in the fall of his 5th grade year, Hayden showed an inkling of interest in football. As visions of tailgate parties danced in our heads, we jumped on the opportunity and contacted the local flag football league. by Lisa Smith Molinari In the fall, a whiff of fallen leaves evokes echoes of marching bands and whistles blown. We feel the cold aluminum bleacher seats and the prickle of wool scarves. Like Pavlov’s dog, our mouths water, imagining hot coffee at 8 am soccer games and chili dogs at football halftime. As soon as our kids show any interest in athletics, we put them on teams, so we can experience the sights, sounds and smells of the fall sports season. We justify our pushy behavior by telling ourselves that our kids will benefit from learning about teamwork. But do they? Over a decade ago, our family was stationed in Norfolk, Virginia, and our son, Hayden, of kids each, and of course, they picked their worst players. Oblivious, we showed up for our first practice ready to access the boys’ talents. The lineup was not what we had expected. None of the boys knew a the meat and potatoes of life “Sorry ma’am, the teams are full . . . now, if your husband would be willing to coach, your son could play this season.” Although my husband, Francis, had never coached sports before and was completely ignorant of the league team selection process, he agreed, because he was between deployments and it was a rare chance to spend some quality time with Hayden. We received a roster of 15 kids -- Hayden and 14 others — who transferred from overcrowded teams. What we didn’t know, was that the other coaches had been asked to give up a couple thing about football. A few were skinny. Most were small. Three had learning disabilities. But they were all excited to play. We called ourselves “The Sharks” and accepted the rejected purple league jerseys without complaint. Practices were dicey. The plays looked more like people running from a fire, but we were hopeful that it would all come together on game day. As self-appointed team mom, I went overboard. I ordered the “Jaws” soundtrack. I made up cheers. I bought sweatshirts and little purple towels. Game day finally arrived, and we were ready. Parents donned their Sharks wear, swung their purple towels and cheered. Players gathered around Coach Francis for a pre-game pep talk. “Listen boys, I want you all to go out there today and show ‘em what you’re made of! Let’s tell everybody, if you swim with the Sharks, you’re gonna get bit!” Both players and parents alike exploded into simultaneous applause and woo-hoos. A half-hour later, we were down by three touchdowns, and our blissful ignorance of the corrupt team-selection process came to an abrupt end. “Listen up, Sharks,” Francis barked during half-time, “don’t let the numbers on that scoreboard get you down! We’re the Sharks! Win or lose, we’re gonna fight and fight hard! Now go out there, boys, and give ‘em all you got!” At the end of the third quarter, the ref called the game because they were beating us 40 to zilch. The rest of the season was more of the same, and it wasn’t easy to keep up the morale of our little Sharks. But we persisted. Instead of emphasizing winning, we became determined to surprise the other team with our undying spirit. At every game, we waved our purple towels, blared the “Jaws” theme song, and shouted our original Sharks cheers. At halftime, we threw candy footballs and the refs danced to our music. It became known in the league that, no matter the odds against the our team, the Sharks played every game to win. Despite it all, we never scored one point. The following year, I ran into a former Sharks mom at a local grocery store. She mentioned that, even though her son was placed on a winning team that fall, he confessed, “Mom, I wish this team was more like the Sharks.” At that moment, I realized … despite a losing season, the Sharks were winners after all. www.themeatandpotatoesoflife.com 8 www.armedforcesdispatch.com THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 2016 COMBINED FEDERAL CAMPAIGN Military teen app workshop The University of Pittsburgh and Military Childrens Collaborative Group have partnered together to facilitate and present a workshop for teens Oct. 22 in San Diego.

Local Military USS Coronado enters 7th Fleet prepared to operate with allied, partner navies SINGAPORE - Littoral combat ship (LCS) USS Coronado (LCS 4) arrived in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), Oct. 3, while on its maiden deployment to Southeast Asia. Coronado is the first Independence-variant LCS to deploy to 7th Fleet as part of an initiative to deploy multiple LCS to the Indo-Asia-Pacific region in just a few years. The Freedom-class LCS variants USS Freedom (LCS 1) and USS Fort Worth (LCS 3) have previously deployed to the region. Coronado, like Freedom and Fort Worth, will operate from Singapore as a maintenance hub and rotationally deploy crews during the deployment. “Similar to the Freedom and Fort Worth deployments, Coronado will participate in exercises and engagements throughout South and Southeast Asia and beyond,” said Capt. H. B. Le, commodore, Destroyer Squadron 7. “The LCS platform is well suited for this region and provides a unique opportunity for our partner and allied nations to operate alongside one of our Navy’s newest and most advanced platforms.” The Independence variant boasts a larger flight deck than the Freedom variant, allowing for expanded aviation operations with regional navies, and has more fuel capacity providing increased operational capabilities. Coronado is outfitted with the Surface Warfare (SUW) mission package, comprised of two 11meter rigid hull inflatable boats (RHIB), two visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS) boarding teams, two 30MM machine guns, two MQ-8B Fire Scouts, and, for the first time deployed CFC on board an LCS to Southeast Asia, an MH-60S Seahawk helicopter. Cmdr. Scott Larson, commanding officer, USS Coronado, discussed the opportunities that lie ahead for LCS Crew 204. “We’ve worked very hard preparing for this deployment and now we have the opportunity to operate alongside our partner nations throughout the Indo-AsiaPacific,” said Larson. “We’ll be able to share our knowledge and skills while learning the opera- tions and tactics of other regional navies, which will make us better prepared to work together in times of crisis.” Coronado and its combined crew of about 100 Sailors assigned to LCS Squadron 1 and Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 23 began their deployment, June 22, after departing San Diego. They participated in the Rim of the Pacific 2016 exercise, in which the ship conducted a Harpoon Block 1C missile LCS-based launch. Meet Humbelina God is using her to empower women in unexpected ways by Katie Kuykendall Humbelina sat, puzzled, with a pile of pencils. She had come to a village near her hometown in Peru to lead a Women of the Bible workshop - a study that focuses on the roles of 17 women in scripture. About 100 Huallaga Quechua women had gathered to participate in the study designed to teach comprehension and application in their own language. But when Humbelina tried to pass out worksheets and pencils, the women didn’t seem interested. They took the worksheets, intending to take them home for their kids to play with. Not a single woman took a pencil from Humbelina. Her heart sank. “How many of you know how to read and write?” she asked. Of the 100 women in attendance, six raised their hands. “I realized in that moment we were in trouble,” Humbelina said. “‘We’re on the cusp of receiving the entire Bible in our language, and this many people don’t know how to read?’ It was a burden on my heart.” Humbelina returned to her community devastated. She and other women began praying, asking God what they could do about this great need for literacy. God answered Humbelina repeatedly, “You will be useful! I can use you.” Humbelina never anticipated a life in ministry. When she was young her parents wanted nothing to do with the church. She went to school to learn to be a seamstress and planned to make a living using her sewing skills. It wasn’t until she met her husband, a Quechua Bible translator, that she began to consider God’s mission in the world. Now God was promising to make her part of that mission. With her new passion for literacy, Humbelina and her team created Huallaga Quechua primers for pre-literacy and basic literacy needs. Once participants complete both primers, their reading level is high enough to do the Women of the Bible study. The literacy team teaches students in classes, on the radio and through one-onone lessons. Humbelina remembers one student in particular, a woman named Leonarda. “She came to the training, but she always seemed very hard and cold,” Humbelina said. One day after the workshop, Humbelina saw Leonarda sitting and reading with some older friends. When she saw Humbelina, she jumped up with joy on her face and introduced Humbelina to her friends as “the sister who taught me to read.” “Our desire is to keep bringing the Word of God in the mother tongue so people can understand it,” she said. “When we share it with women, they don’t keep it to themselves. They share it with their children; they share it with other women. The Word of God in the mother tongue is what has an impact in people’s hearts, and it’s what changes people’s lives.” Wycliffe Bible Translators is grateful for all who take part in supporting translation and Scripture use projects like this one, including those who give through the Combined Federal Campaign. 10 www.armedforcesdispatch.com THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 2016 COMBINED FEDERAL CAMPAIGN Col.

Malone, presented the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal to HM2 Joshua Blanchard, a hospital corpsman, Sept. 13 for saving the life of a drowning mother while he was serving on temporary duty in August at the Surface Warfare Medical Institute in San Diego. “It’s pretty surreal,” Blanchard said of being honored. “I wasn’t expecting any recognition.

All rights reserved. 08272015dk Around 7:30 p.m. Aug. 16, Blanchard, a native of Wilmington, N.C., responded to a call for help from two school-age children who approached the receptionist’s desk. “Due to the time of day, I couldn’t see what was going on outside, so I went over to the door,” Blanchard recalled. “There was yelling and screaming, and that’s when I saw people standing around what was a salt-water pool. I ran out to the pool, and after focusing for a few seconds, I could see that there was a person at the bottom.” The person at the bottom of the 8-foot pool was an unconscious mother of two children who were present. Blanchard immediately jumped into the deep end of the pool and brought the woman to the surface with the assistance of a couple of bystanders. Taking charge of the scene, Blanchard instructed all bystanders surrounding the victim to provide sufficient space to begin medical attention. He was unable to feel the woman’s pulse. Emergency response was initiated by a bystander as Blanchard began administering CPR to the victim. After about 20 minutes, vomit began to gush from the woman’s mouth. After reassessing, Blanchard was able to feel a weak pulse before the arrival of paramedics and police officers. Once the paramedics took control of the situation, Blanchard provided a statement to the police. Then, he consoled the victim’s 6-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son. Three days after the incident, Blanchard approached the hotel’s manager about the woman, and the manager informed him that she had survived and was in a local hospital and that family members had come to San Diego to care for her children while she was recovering. Blanchard attributed his quick response to paying attention in basic life support class, which is held annually for all medical professionals. “I think we all prepare for it, and never really expect for something like this to happen,” Blanchard said.

Black, heralded as one of Country music’s brightest stars, promises to deliver a stellar evening of original songs and stories on the intimate Poway stage. Clint Black shot to fame in 1989 with his break-out album, Killin’ Time. It went triple platinum and yielded five #1 hits including “Nothin’ But the Taillights,” “A Better Man” and “Put Yourself in My Shoes.” Country Music Television (CMT) lists Killin’ Time as one of the 100 Greatest Albums in Country Music. Having sold more than 20 million albums and with 22 number one hits, Clint has joined the ranks of Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, George Jones, and more. A country music traditionalist from Texas, Clint Black was one of the first artists to kick-start the mass-market popularity of country in the ‘90s. Black is also one of the first artists of a generation that was inspired by rock-oriented pop -- like ‘70s singer/songwriters and ‘60s rock & roll -- as well as country artists like Merle Haggard, Bob Wills, and George Jones. Black was raised in Katy, Texas, a suburb of Houston. As a child, he listened to both country and rock & roll, but he didn’t begin playing guitar until the age of 13, when he started playing harmonica. Two years later, he began writing songs, as well as performing in his brother Kevin’s band, where he played bass and sang. Celebrated for both his singing and songwriting prowess, Black credits his late father for his inspiration: “My dad was a huge country fan and is the first reason I listen to country music. He is probably the reason I’m a songwriter today. He was my introduction to “who’s behind the music.” I grew up wanting to be the writer behind the song. That really all started with him,” said Black. Black has recorded and played live with Kenny Loggins, Toto, Billy Joel, Jimmy Buffett and others. His vocal collaborators have included Martina McBride, Wynonna, Roy Rogers, The Pointer Sisters, Waylon Jennings, Bruce Hornsby, Eric Idle and Steve Wariner. Among his songwriting partners have been Wariner, Merle Haggard, Michael McDonald, Marty Stuart, Bill Anderson and Jimmy Buffett. In 2004, Black scaled the top of the charts again by trading Omarr’s weekly lines with Buffett, Alan Jackson, George Strait, Toby Keith and Kenny Chesney on the Hank Williams classic “Hey Good Looking.’” He contributed “The Great Mississippi Flood” to the 2005 post-Katrina charity album Hurricane Relief: Come Together Now. He released albums in 2004, 2005 and 2007. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Curb your enthusiasm. You think on your feet, but could be swept away by someone else’s love of adventure.

As this week unfolds there could be misunderstandings with a family member because you are blind to the logic of someone’s ideas. Hold off on starting home improvements. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22- forecast Dec. 21): Your past experiences have equipped you with well-tailored skills that are appropriate for building a better future. Dig into your bag of tricks in the week ahead to overcome small problems and annoyances. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The more the merrier is your motto.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Pursue enrichment without extra embellishments. As this week unfolds you may strengthen your financial position with a view towards long term growth. Grow closer to a loved one by discussing shared philosophies. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You may milk the cow until it is dry. If you do be sure the optics are good because someone may report you for unkindness to animals. In the week ahead fight off an urge to overspend or to go to extremes of behavior. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Wave the shiny objects. Distract people from your deficits by showing La Jolla Music Society’s Dance Series opens with Twyla Tharp Jolla Music Society’s 2016-17 Season Dance Series opens with Twyla Tharp Dance at Spreckels Theatre on Saturday, Oct. 22 at 8 pm. Twyla Tharp Dance celebrates 50 years of the iconic choreographer Twyla Tharp’s groundbreaking creativity and dance-making with a program featuring both her classic and new work performed by a hand-cho- sen and meticulously rehearsed cast. Known for creativity, wit and technical precision coupled with streetwise nonchalance, Ms. Tharp’s work combines different forms of movement—such as jazz, ballet and boxing—and expands the boundaries of ballet and modern dance. The folksy and lively Country Dances from 1976 opens the program. Set to music from America’s heartland, the dancers bring Ms. Tharp’s choreography to life as they dosi-do through square dance adaptations. A dramatic new work follows, Beethoven Opus 130 featuring long-time Twyla Tharp dancer Matthew Dibble with the company, set to Beethoven’s String Quartet in B-flat Major, Opus 130, follows. The evening closes with the 1980 tour de force Brahms Paganini, set to Books I & II of Variations on a Theme by Paganini, Opus 35 by Johannes Brahms. This dance showcases the virtuosity, immaculate technique and joy of Ms. Tharp’s dancers, and features a male soloist and an ensemble who display a high level of partnering expertise and stamina in movement. ,QGLD6WUHHWZZZHOLQGLRVDQGLHJRFRP 6XPPHUKRXUVRQ)UL6DWXQWLOSP THANK YOU TO OUR MILITARY!

Much of the information you’ll be reading here is from the official event program. MCAS Miramar is the 23,000acre home to the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing and more than 10,000 Marines. It is vital to the Marine Corps’ mission to train, equip and deploy our forces to respond to a variety of crises around the world. The proud history of the Marines dates back to 1775. The Marine Corps Reserve was established in 1916, during World War I. Since then, Reserve Marines have served alongside their active duty counterparts in times of war and national emergencies. MCAS Miramar is a leader in responsible management of our precious natural resources. Half of MCAS Miramar’s energy is provided by renewable resources, including methane gas from the Miramar landfill and solar. Reclaimed water is used throughout the base. This year’s air show, which culminated with a 70th anniversary performance by the legendary U.S. Navy Blue Angels flight demonstration team, also featured breathtaking, stylish formation flying maneuvers by the Breitling Jet Team – the world’s largest professional civilian flight team performing in jets; an intense Marine Air-Ground simulated battle demonstration, complete with massive, fiery explosions; gravity defying maneuvers by the “Oracle Challenger” aerobatic biplane, piloted by Sean Tucker – a “Living Legend of Flight” with over 1,200 performances at more than 475 air shows; the F-35B Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter, the AV-8B Harrier, the MV-22B Osprey and the F-16 Fighting Falcon; the U.S. Navy Leap Frogs and the U.S. Army Golden Knights parachute teams; the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing Band; the Shockwave Jet Truck; opportunities to speak with and thank Marines, Sailors, Soldiers, Airmen and Coast Guardsmen while exploring the numerous static displays that included past and present aircraft, and ground combat equipment; vendor exhibits and more. Easily recognized because of its two large, tilt-rotor engines, is the MV-22 Osprey. Its capability for vertical takeoff and landing like a conventional helicopter, combined with its ability to fly twice as fast, carry three times the weight and fly more than twice as high as the CH-46, provides commanders with unprecedented agility and operational reach. It will eventually replace the current Marine Corps assault helicopters in the October monthly observances continued from page 1 to its starting point. Likewise, the AV8B Harrier can takeoff and land vertically from helicopter pads, roads and ships, allowing it to be based in areas that other jets cannot access. This maneuverability is made possible by four moveable exhaust nozzles, which can be directed for conventional flight, short takeoffs and landings, or vertical maneuvers. The Harrier, which is used by the Marine Corps for light attack and close air support, can attain speeds of Mach 1. Copyright © 2016 by Jan Wagner – AutoMatters & More #457 The new F-35B Lightning II is the Marine Corps’ Joint Strike Fighter, delivering supersonic speed, radar-evading stealth, fighter agility, short takeoff/vertical landing capability and the most comprehensive integrated sensor package of any fighter in history. The 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, based at MCAS Miramar, is proud to have the first operational F-35 squadron: Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA-121). Especially exciting at the Miramar Air Show was the massive Marine Air-Ground Task Force demonstration (MAGTF).

In the demonstration, F/A-18 Hornets and AV-8B Harriers screamed through the air, leaving explosive pillars of flame on the ground beneath them in their wake – simulating strafing and bombing runs to soften up their targets. Helicopter-borne Marines then rappelled from the sky, and infantry platoons moved in on their objectives by foot and in armored vehicles. The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a compact, multi-role fighter aircraft that has seen extensive use in hundreds of thousands of missions since its first delivery in 1979. Its exceptional maneuverability, combined with its range of more than 500 miles, enables it to deliver its weapons with accuracy, defend itself against enemy aircraft and return Summer Camp Directory If you’re looking for a summer program that will occupy, stimulate and entertain your children check out these great summer offerings!

I got them last year when they were the size of half-dollars. Now in a 75-gallon tank with a sunning rock and two different lights, they are 5- and 6-inches, each. But I can’t keep the tank clean for more than four days even with a filter. I’ve heard that some people feed their turtles in a separate tank, but as soon as I take mine out, they “clam” up. How can I train them to eat outside their usual environment? What type of tank and should it have water in it? - Stewart Williams, Las Vegas, NV A: I think you need a stronger filter than what you have, but feeding the turtles in a separate container will keep their habitat much cleaner no matter what the filter. The feeding tank does need to have water because water turtles cannot swallow their food unless their heads are under water. Even if they grab a piece of food on land they still need to carry it into the water and swallow it with their head under water. I don’t have an answer to why this is, despite researching it. I feed my turtles in a plastic kitty litter pan with just enough water to cover their shells. After I put them in it and feed them, I leave them to their own devices for 20 minutes or so to allow them time to eat and poop in the pan.

In parts of Florida pet iguanas that got dumped have taken over as an invasive species. Q: Years back we all had Iguanas as pets and I had a very clever one named “Iggy,” who actually lived loose in my studio apartment for many years. However you never see them offered as pets anymore in the pet stores we went to and I was wondering why? - Richard Grant, Chicago, IL While all this was going on, dedicated reptile enthusiasts started to breed and domesticate other lizards, such as bearded dragons and geckos. Those animals are much smaller than a 6-foot, 15 pound iguana, thus easier to keep as a pet. That is the main reason you seldom see baby iguanas offered for sale as pets. If you do find one to purchase, you must be sure you are capable of keeping one as a pet before you purchase it. Marc Morrone has kept almost every kind of animal as a pet for the last half-century and he is happy to share his knowledge with others. Although he cannot answer every question, he will publish many of those that have a general interest. You can contact him at petxperts2@aol. com; please include your name, city and state.

And whoever you love will hurt you. It’s part of the human experience. No one is perfect... people make mistakes. The secret is to focus on what they do right and decide what quirks you can live with” The problem, though, is that baby iguanas need a lot of specialized care that not all pet keepers are capable of providing. Because of this, most of them died as infants. -Kristin Billerbeck So many adult iguanas ended dumped in parks and other areas by those people who could not Bob Hope Theater 858-577-4143 *Indicates last showing 6-Oct Thurs 7-Oct Fri 8-Oct Sat 9-Oct Sun 12-Oct Wed 13-Oct Thurs 6:30 PM *Pete’s Dragon (3D)-PG 6:30 PM When the Bough Breaks PG-13 9:00 PM Don’t Breathe-R 3:00 PM The Wild Life (2D) PG 8:06 PM Sully PG-13 9:00 PM Ben-Hur PG-13 1:00 PM The Light Between Oceans PG-13 6:30 PM Kevin Hart: What Now?
