Welcome to Whidbey Weekly. If you cannot wait to laugh, please go directly to page 12, and begin reading Island 911. If you are able to wait, caution ahead, as there may be a chuckle or two. High Test History The February, 2013 issue of Wired magazine, which I just got around to reading, has an interesting four page summary of the caffeine industry. Maybe if I drank more coffee, I would read faster. When will I get to my 2014 issues? Apparently, coffee has been around longer than Folgers. In 2737 BC, a Chinese emperor named Shen Nung discovered tea when leaves blew into his cup of hot water. By AD 350, back before we knew about ADD and ADHD, the Chinese were planting and drinking tea. Seven centuries later, around the year 1000, coffee, previously eaten as beans, was infused with water. By 1300, the coffee roasting process was discovered. Things got pretty wound up after that. In 1511, back before cable television and power outages, Mecca’s governor banned coffee, citing ill health effects, and bad behavior in those who drank it. By 1615, the Venetian merchants were hawking coffee to the Europeans. In 1734, Bach composed his “Coffee Cantata,� now probably available as a ring tone on a Starbucks app. In 1819, Friedlieb Ferdinand Runge, a German chemist, isolated caffeine from coffee. Sixtyseven years later, Coca-Cola was introduced. Twelve years later, in 1898, Pepsi-Cola was introduced. No wonder Grandma and Mom were running around the kitchen in high-heels. They started drinking Coca-Cola, pronounced “Co-Cola� in Mississippi, at nine in the morning. Was that why there was a whiskey named Early Times? Despite similar seizures by the Federal government at the turn of the century, fifty years later Mom would give us Coke for an upset stomach. Mom must have thought we kids had a touch of battery acid. After all, Mom was a quick read. She watched Dad clean his Chrysler battery terminals with Coke. In 1911, Coke hired a psychologist by the name of Harry Hollingsworth to demonstrate the benefits of caffeine. Back in Pennsylvania, we graduated from high school with a kid named Tom Hollingsworth. Tom went on to become an anesthesiologist. Holly knew little about the benefits of caffeine, but he was successful at area seminars and workshops in north Georgia discussing the benefits of Yuengling beer as an anesthesia. In 1938, two years before Gone with the Wind beat out The Wizard of Oz, Dark Victory, Goodbye Mr. Chips, Love Affair, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Ninotchka, Wuthering Heights, and Stagecoach for Best Picture at the 1940 Academy Awards, Nescafe Instant Coffee was launched. In 1980, journalists covering the Democratic National Convention were offered emergency NoDoz kits. We had NoDoz in college in the 60s’, but the only emergencies which arouse for us occurred when the bars closed, and we had to go back to studying. In 1985, Jolt Cola was introduced to the Joltees. Five years later, Starbucks went public. Another five years passed before Red Bull began jolting vodka drinkers all over the planet. Since there were obviously not enough forms of caffeine to enjoy with just coffee, tea, and soft drinks, Stay Alert chewing gum came out in 2003, followed by 5-Hour Energy’s first “energy shot� drinks in 2004. After scientists and several attorney generals petitioned the FDA for restriction of alcoholic energy drinks in 2009, basketball star LeBron James introduced Sheets, those delicious,

Elect Rebecca Wagner, CPA AUDITOR Independent

Americans consume more than 15 million pounds of powdered caffeine a year, the equivalent of a freight train, two miles long, pulling 270 rail cars filled to the brim. Talk about Highballing! According to the researchers at Wired, there are 320 milligrams of caffeine in a 16 ounce Rockstar 2X Energy Drink, as well as in three Zantrex diet pills. Five pieces of Stay Alert gum and we are rolling in 500 milligrams of caffeine. Want to talk faster? Chew, chew, chew.

Voices of Whidbey Island Live streaming on the internet

In 2010, a British fellow named Michael Bedford ate two spoonfuls of pure caffeine. After chasing the powder down with an energy drink, Bedford got very sick, collapsed, and died. According to Murray Carpenter, author of All Jacked Up, two spoonfuls of pure caffeine is the equivalent of 24 shots of 5-Hour Energy. 24 shots?

Two Flags West Since I opted out of the cable TV world many years ago, I have to rely on my more affluent friends to find out what I am missing. Today, for example, I received a telephone call from Gene, my old law school roomie. Gene is the only person I know who has successfully achieved a double lung transplant, enabling him to inform me that the Encore Westerns channel was running that 1950 classic, Two Flags West. Check out this cast: Dale Robertson, Joseph Cotten, Linda Darnell, Jeff Chandler, Cornell Wilde, Jay C. Flippen, Noah Berry, Jr., and Harry von Zell. The Civil War never had it so good with soldiers like these Remember Harry von Zell? My first exposure to von Zell was his character on The Burns and Allen Show. Playing the befuddled friend of George and Gracie, von Zell always impressed me with his articulation and baritone sound. Little did I know back in the 50s’ that von Zell had beat out 250 announcers auditioning for the Paul Whiteman radio show in the 20s’.

Until I checked von Zell’s history, I also did not know that Harry was the CBS announcer who made the memorable verbal slip in 1931 when he referred to U.S. President Herbert Hoover as “Hoobert Heever�, during a live tribute on Hoover’s birthday. According to Wikipedia, “Hoover was not present at this tribute. Von Zell’s blooper came at the end of a lengthy coverage of Hoover’s career in which von Zell had correctly pronounced the President’s name several times. Some mistakenly believe Hoover was present when the incident happened because of a reenactment fabricated by Kermit Schaefer for his Pardon My Blooper record album.� If I had a dime for every time Mike Clark and I listened to that Schaefer record, I might be able to pay my property tax on time. (Hint, hint--due in 24 hours). I wonder what Harry would think today. Von Zell was the announcer for Pabst Blue Ribbon commercials on the Jackie Gleason Life of Riley show. No doubt, Harry, being a Hoosier from Indianapolis, had a PBR now and then. Last month, Pabst was sold to a Russian company. For some reason, I just cannot see Harry, were he alive today, popping a top on a PBR made from Commie hops, and water filtered from the Baltic Sea. I should have known when Budwesier bought out Rolling Rock in Latrobe, Pa that the world would never be the same, but PBR in Moscow? Flavored potatoes are next. Cow Fun What do you call a cow with no legs? Ground beef. What do you call a cow with two legs? Lean beef. I think I hear mooing in Greenbank.

Letters to the Editor Editor, At the Oak Harbor Voter’s forum last Thursday, my opponent, Sheilah Crider, took issue with my contention the 100% turnover in the Auditor’s office accounting department was a management problem. She assured the audience that those who left had moved out of state or were promoted to better jobs within the county and that now “we have the strongest team we’ve ever had.” This week another accountant gave notice, and is moving to another local organization. There is a high risk that there will be others who choose to leave because of poor leadership in the Auditor’s office. All of the training invested in these staff members is for naught, and those who remain will feel even more disenfranchised. It’s time to send a strong message to these employees that there is hope for a change by casting your vote for Rebecca Wagner. My experience as Chief Accountant in the Skagit County Auditor’s office included preparing the financial statements, managing the accounting staff and overseeing the audit. I was successful in resolving employee conflicts and redefining job duties. As a working manager for over 25 years, in finance and accounting, I understand the duties and can train, assist and review the work. Workloads change throughout the year requiring cross training and rebalancing – and a leader who is present and cognizant of the changes. Ms. Crider has a background as a real estate agent for 21 years. It’s time for a change in the Auditor’s office – someone with the training and experience to do the job.

Sheriff’s Tip On Being Safe This Halloween With Halloween right around the corner, it is a goal of the Island County Sheriff’s Office to provide accurate information to the public regarding the dangers of sexual predators, and to further build community awareness. In Island County there are about 100 current registered sex offenders. Of which 17 are currently listed on the Island County Sheriff’s Office web-site. These offenders are Level 3, Level 2, Non-Compliant Level 1 and/or Transient/Homeless. “We do the best we can in making sure sex offenders live where they tell us, so it is crucial that our citizens visit our website, http://www. islandcounty.net/sheriff/ (click on the Sex Offender Information tab) to see who the registered sex offenders are and where they are living.” says Sheriff Mark Brown. You will also find many other beneficial tools such as the ability to sign up for free automatic email notifications informing you if a Level 3, Level 2, non-compliant Level 1 and/or Transient/ Homeless offender moves within a specified radius of any address you register. Citizens are encouraged to check any addresses where they or their family spend time. Sheriff Brown says “The mapping and address feature found on the website pinpoints exactly where an offender lives.” Because only Level 2, Level 3, Non-Compliant Level 1’s and Transient/Homeless are listed on the website, you can contact the Island County Sheriff’s Office and inquire about a specific location, or person to learn if they are a registered sex offender in Island County. From north Whidbey call (360) 678-4422, from south Whidbey call (360) 321-5111 x7310, or from Camano Island call (360) 629-4523 x7310. Sheriff Brown encourages everyone to have a fun and safe Halloween. Knowledge is power

Lather, Rinse, Repeat is a hair-raising adventure, revolving around a parody of a gal from the south, who owns her own beauty salon and is stuck-stuck-stuck in the past. The bewigged cast of characters in this southern soap opera includes a manicurist, who is more cartoon than 3-D, and a self-professed “Eco-Stylist,” who hails from an island in the Pacific Northwest and is all organic and flowy and crunchy granola. Of course the salon has the usual hodge-podge of customers and the hottest group of backup singers you’ve seen and heard in a good, long while.

L120 - 7-Week-Old Southern Resident Orca - Has Died The Center for Whale Research has confirmed that baby L120, only about seven weeks old and the third known offspring of a 23-year old Southern Resident orca known as L86, was not with his or her mother when she and other members of L pod were photographed recently in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Ken Balcomb of the Center for Whale Research said “L86 was seen and photographed on Friday, Saturday, and Monday, all without L120.” L120 was the first newborn Southern Resident offspring seen since August 2012. In February of that year the the body of L86’s second offspring, 3-year old female L112, washed up at Long Beach Wash. with indications of death by severe acoustic trauma. Research conducted in recent years has shown that Southern Resident orcas depend almost entirely on chinook salmon for sustenance, with a diet of chum salmon during fall months when chinook are especially scarce. This orca clan has suffered episodic food deficiency for many decades, as chinook salmon runs were depleted by habitat destruction, excessive harvest and dams from Alaska to California. They were also routinely shot at for decades and over 50 were captured or killed for theme parks during the 1960s and 70s, followed by wanton disposal of persistent toxins into Puget Sound that continue to impair fetal development and immune responses, especially when the whales can’t find sufficient food. “We haven’t treated these magnificent orcas well at all. As a society we are not successfully restoring this orca community despite the many warnings and legal declarations. Our challenge is clear: bountiful salmon runs must be restored and protected or we won’t see Resident orcas in the Salish Sea in coming years.” said Howard Garrett of Orca Network. The loss of her second baby must be especially traumatic for L86, but knowing this young orca will never grow up and reproduce is painful for all who care about this precariously dwindling extended family.

Besides being the highest level of thought, Jaimini astrology is also the simplest and most accurate. One might, therefore, expect it to be the most widely used astrology, but in fact it is not. Jaimini and his astrology remain shrouded in mystery. There are several reasons for this, all having to do with secrecy.

Chicken Little And the Astrologer By Wesley Hallock

Last week we eavesdropped on Archie Campbell of Hee Haw barber shop fame as he analyzed the astrology of the United States. We saw how every point in the US astrology chart that looked at first glance to be bad could also be seen as good. Likewise, every point that first looked to be good had a way of turning out to be bad. The least of the understandings possible from Archie’s dialogue may be that astrology is a lesson in realizing life is what you make it. Or, as Archie, himself, might have put it, “Life is good, except when it’s not, and then you need to take a closer look.�

Past columns have boldly said the main ingredient in the making of the US space program is secrecy. The same is true, it was said, about the history of America’s discovery. Recent news articles support both positions. The BBC reported on October 17: “An unmanned US plane on a top-secret, two year mission to space has returned to Earth and landed in California. â€œThe aircraft, resembling a miniature space shuttle and known as the Orbital Test Vehicle or X-37B, spent 674 days in orbit around the planet. “It was the unmanned plane’s third flight, but its mission has been shrouded in secrecy. â€œOrigins: Started as a NASA project in 1999 before being handed to the military. “Cost: The budget line for the X-37B programme continues to be classified information.â€? Secrecy. Intrigue. More questions than answers. Space reporting has become like reading an Agatha Christie mystery novel. Ditto world history. Again in British headlines, this from the September 25, 2014, online “Daily Mailâ€?: “The Incredible Map That Shows Marco Polo May Have Discovered America in the 13th Century—200 Years Before Christopher Columbus.â€?

"If you are a business owner on Whidbey Island and not using the Whidbey Weekly you are missing the boat and your business is not going to thrive." Jason Leman, Owner Crystal Clean Windows & More LLC

s www.crystalcleanwindowswhidbey.com

The Daily Mail story goes on to explain how this map “comes from a trove of 14 documents that have just been studied in depth for the first time. They were found in a trunk that belonged to an Italian immigrant who settled in San Jose, California. “The documents, reportedly written by Marco Polo’s daughter, Bellala, recount how the Venetian explorer met a Syrian trader on the Kamchatka Peninsula on the far eastern edge of the Asian continent and then sailed across the Bering Strait to North America. “One expert, who authored a Website called MarcoPoloinSeattle.com even claims that the Venetian explorer even made it to Washington and Puget Sound. “The documents have been in the Library of Congress since the 1930s and were even analyzed by J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI.â€? Life is what you make it. In Hoover’s FBI, apparently, you make it a secret.Â

Did the secrecy bug ever bite the astrological tradition? The answer is yes, openly so. It did so, however, in a more highly-evolved way and with a much different intent. Whereas the typical manufacturer of secrets operates out of a desire to dupe the unknowing for reasons of personal gain, ancient astrology kept secrets for the sake of growing the consciousness of

The mystery is twofold: Jaimini astrology is cryptic and it is written in code. The cryptic nature is that the passages are maddeningly sparse, and the information conveyed cannot be understood until the concept behind it is understood. The student is forced to grow. The same simple words that at first perplex and confuse will, with sufficient understanding, suddenly speak volumes to the one ready to hear. By example, four words stand as Jaimini’s entire description of a person whose “soul indicator� rests in Aries: “Five rats and cats.� From these four words, Jaimini expects the astrologer to derive a clear picture of the person so described. First clue, the number: Five is the number of Jupiter. Jupiter is the planet of knowledge. Especially is Jupiter the knowledge of good and evil, of right and wrong, and the ability to distinguish between them. Next clue: The root origin of the Sankrit word for “rat� is “thief.� Rats are thieves, and further, they are known for their cunning and sharp perception, making them difficult to trap and even more difficult to fool by using the same trap twice. Third clue: The root origin of the Sankrit word for “cat� means “to cleanse� or “to purify.� Cats are known for their constant cleansing, their licking and grooming, and thus their reputation for self order and personal composure. By assembling the clues, “five rats and cats� describes a clever and analytical person, one greatly concerned with personal standards of purity, for whom the small details and fine distinctions of life assume large importance. If the planet involved is in good condition, highly detailed perceptions and a great capacity for distinction making will be among the person’s strong points. In bad condition, the person’s happiness and composure will be “thieved� by their inability to make clear distinctions. They will lack a sense of proportion. In either case, the person has a tendency to let small things get in the way of the big things they hope to accomplish. They will over analyze and nit-pick their way through life. All of that in just four words. Jaimini astrology is the dot connector’s delight. Understanding Jaimini also requires understanding his system of code. Certain words must sometimes be understood not as words, but as numbers. This is not unusual in Sanskrit, but Jaimini uses his own special code. The code for when a word is a word and when it is a number, and how to translate that word into its number equivalent is clearly stated at the beginning of his text. In that sense his meanings are not kept secret. Rather, they appear to be a test of the student’s ability to discern and rigorously apply the directions given. This is not astrology for dummies. The long term effect of Jaimini’s cryptic coding has been to preserve his teachings intact from tampering over the millenniums. It is hard to twist or corrupt a text that on its face is indecipherable. Jaimini’s version of secrecy, far from holding back the progress of knowledge, instead advances it. How many of today’s manufacturers of secrets can say the same?

Wesley Hallock is a professional astrologer, navigating the sea of consciousness since 1982, and an avid connecter of dots. Chicken Little in the 1943 Disney version of the folk tale was the gullible dupe in Foxy Loxy’s scheme to raid the hen house. Connecting dots and dupes and reporting on the result is Wesley’s special delight. He calls this “the dot nitty gritty.� Send your nitty gritty questions and comments to Wesley at planetbiz4u2@gmail. com.

The first came with Coupeville clinging to a hardearned 35-28 lead and Klahowya facing fourth and ten from the Wolf 15 with less than a minute and a half on the clock. Eagle quarterback George Harris fired a ball into the end zone, the Wolves defended it almost perfectly, the ball hit the ground and the roar from the pro-Coupeville crowd could be heard for miles. CHS would run the clock out and two weeks later be in the 1A playoffs. Except, from the corner, a ref who had done little all game dropped a flag and took the first jab at Wolf Nation’s psyche. The call was pass interference, though there was no contact and seemingly no reason to think twice about the play. Given a reprieve (and five extra yards it probably shouldn’t have had) Klahowya took advantage, with Harris zinging a game-tying TD pass on his second attempt at fourth down.

COUPEVILLE VS. KLAHOWYA

How low? From many angles, it looked like it might have skipped into the Eagles receiver’s hands, but, in the high school world of no instant replay, the ref’s arms shot up and the lead was gone.

Real. Immediate. Crushing in the moment. But Friday, Oct. 24 was a day awash in genuine heartbreak. A day when Marysville-Pilchuck should have sent its football team to Whidbey Island to play Oak Harbor before a school shooting tragically reshaped the day for all involved.

With the ball back in its hands, Coupeville chose to come back all guns firing. Not content to run out the clock and head to overtime, the Wolves went to the air repeatedly in the final minute.

So, in the end, having a high school football game stolen away from you in the final seconds is not the end of the world.

And it worked, big time. Until it didn’t. Wolf quarterback Joel Walstad hit three different receivers on consecutive passes, tearing off chunks of yardage and quickly moving Coupeville into game-winning territory.

Yes, Coupeville came within one minute and 14 seconds of clinching a playoff berth, before a ref’s questionable call gave Klahowya renewed life.

Josh Bayne snagged a 19-yard strike. CJ Smith hauled in a short pass, then side-stepped defenders and turned it into a 22-yard catch-and-run. Wiley Hesselgrave went airborne and made a sensational snag on a 20-yard bomb while splitting defenders.

And yes, the Eagles rose to the moment, scoring twice in those final 74 seconds to escape with a wild 42-35 win and leave Wolf Nation deflated. But, as much as it meant to the young men on the field, and to the fans in the stands and overflowing across the track and on to the grass in every direction, it was just a game. A very good one at that.

With the ball at the Klahowya 25, Coupeville sent in a running play, only to have its signals scrambled.

A Homecoming game that started with an emotional tribute to former Wolf Adam Garcia, who was murdered in Oak Harbor at age 21 last week.

Unfortunately, the ball, heaved towards the left sideline, landed on the fingertips of a Klahowya defensive back, who brought the ball back 75 yards for a game-busting pick six with just 24 ticks on the clock.

A game that had everything — huge touchdown Even then, with defeat having sucker-punched Puzzle 1 (Easy, difficulty rating 0.35)

Oak Harbor VS. MOUNTLAKE TERRACE at Oak Harbor HS, 7:00pm Coupeville vs. COncrete at Concrete HS, TBA South Whidbey vs. SULTAN at Sultan HS, 7:00pm around the end for a back-dislocating sack that set up the fateful fourth-and-ten at the 15. It was a game that deserved a great ending, and, if you were a Klahowya Eagle, you got the one you wanted. If you were a Coupeville Wolf, you did not. But whether you jumped and screamed and dogpiled at the end, or mingled with fans and classmates who rightly praised you for leaving every last ounce of effort, sweat and commitment on the field, you got to play a game Friday night.

While Friday’s game will be remembered for how it finished, it was, hands down, the most actionpacked affair of the season.

A very entertaining, very competitive game.

The two teams went toe-to-toe in the first half, racking up a combined 56 points.

OAK HARBOR VS. MARYSVILLE-PILCHUCK

Down 7-0, Coupeville responded with back-toback touchdown lobs from Walstad to Hesselgrave. The first covered 15 yards, while the second was a thing of beauty. An Eagle rusher had Walstad’s jersey in his hands, only to watch the senior slip his grasp, spin and lob a little eight-yard gem into his receiver’s arms.

Bayne busted out a six-yard scoring run in which he started in one speed, then hit the corner and found three more speeds in three steps, then the Wolves got tricky. Walstad pitched the ball to Hesselgrave, who stopped on a dime and threw a long pass that hung in the air for a half hour, before tumbling over and over and landing in Bayne’s grasp 46 yards away.

Some days that is enough.

They made the national news without playing a down. Just hours before Oak Harbor High School was scheduled to host Marysville-Pilchuck Friday, Oct. 24, with a divisional title on the line for the third straight year, their rival’s campus was torn apart by a teenage gunman. In the aftermath of the shooting, which left the shooter, a freshman Tomahawk football player, and at least one of his victim’s dead, neither school was ready to immediately return to football. Instead, the Wildcats, who are coached by Jay Turner, a 1990 graduate of MPHS, voted as a team to forfeit the game so Marysville would not have to reschedule.

After battling to a 28-28 halftime stalemate, the team’s switched gears in the third and put on a defensive clinic.

Oak Harbor offered to accept second place in the Wesco 3A North and then many of its players traveled to Marysville to join a vigil with the same players they would have normally been tackling and blocking Friday night.

Twice Hesselgrave came flying around the Klahowya line and blindsided Harris, knocking the ball loose both times with an audible pop. Matt Shank and Jake Lord snagged the resulting fumbles.

The ‘Cats (5-1 overall, 4-0 in league play prior to the offered forfeit) will play a home crossover game Oct. 31 against Mountlake Terrace for playoff seeding.

But even with the turnovers, the Wolves couldn’t break through in the second half themselves until they put together a 57-yard drive in the fourth.

After a roughing the passer penalty kept the drive alive, Lathom Kelley, who played like a one-man wrecking crew while wearing a heavy cast on one arm, punched the ball in from the one with 3:28 to play. The final three minutes was two exhausted teams standing in the middle of the field and punching like mad. Harris jabbed with quick passes to his fleet-footed, hard-to-track receivers. Hesselgrave exploded

SOUTH WHIDBEY VS. LAKEWOOD A season of learning is creeping to a close. Unable to stop 2A Lakewood’s explosive offense, the South Whidbey High School gridiron squad fell hard Friday, Oct. 24, dropping a 53-22 home game. The loss dropped the 1A Falcons to 1-5 in Cascade Conference play, 1-7 overall. South Whidbey will close the regular season Halloween night in Sultan. The game will be a battle to stay out of the basement, as the Turks are also 1-5 in league play.

Coupeville (4-4, 3-3) closes its regular season Oct. 31 with a non-conference game at Concrete.

Hammering away with short runs, Coupeville ground up yardage and the clock.

Running for his life, Walstad refused to go down easily (he had repeatedly evaded Eagle tacklers and kept plays alive all night long) and made a bid for a fourth straight big pass.

Kenney Chesney and Brad Paisley songs led into a moment when the Coupeville players went over to hug Garcia’s relatives, then Central Whidbey firefighter Jerry Helm followed a moment of silence with a haunting bagpipe performance of “Amazing Grace.”

With the win, Klahowya (4-4 overall, 4-2 in Olympic League play) will join Port Townsend (6-2, 5-1) in the playoffs.

Coupeville added two more scores in the second quarter.

The ball came in low, very low.

It was heartbreaking.

likely victory, Walstad never buckled, hitting two passes after the kickoff, before the clock ran out on him and his team’s postseason chances.

MILITARY MUSTER NAS Whidbey Island, Washington

October 30 - November 5, 2014

Association of Old Crows awards NIOC Whidbey Island By Lt. Cmdr. Trevor Day NIOC Whidbey Island For the fifth consecutive year, Navy Information Operations Command (NIOC) Whidbey Island earned the title of Outstanding Unit Award Navy – Shore recently from the Association of Old Crows (AOC). The AOC is an organization for individuals who have common interests in Electronic Warfare (EW), Electromagnetic Spectrum Management Operations, Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA), Information Operations (IO) and other information related capabilities. They pride themselves on connecting members and organizations with common interests in order to exchange ideas and advance the EW/CEMA/IO fields. The command earned the award for its EW and Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) support to Naval Air and Surfaces Forces deployed worldwide. NIOC Sailors were deployed throughout the world in support of the local Electronic Attack and Fleet Air Reconnaissance (VQ) squadrons and aboard each of the Carrier Strike Groups fulfilling critical positions. In addition to the forward support, the NIOC Signals Analysis Lab, working out of NAS Whidbey Island, authored and released several advi-

sory tasking messages that highlighted EW/ SIGINT opportunities for joint forces conducting operations throughout Central and Pacific commands (PACOM). On top of this honor, Cryptologic Technician Techncial 1st Class Chad Verbitsky was awarded with the prestigious AOC’s Technical Analyst of the Year. Verbitsky competed with the best EW/ IO analysts representing each of the joint forces. He was recognized in particular for his work in the Mobile Quick Look, leading 14 personnel while deployed for 202 days to PACOM, and for his work in the Signals Analysis Lab. Verbitsky led the effort to author and release several important reports that satisfied a number of critical National Intelligence Needs. He developed processing procedures that directly expanded NIOC’s mission and initiated several database updates that positively impacted the VQ squadron’s safety of flight and mission effectiveness while deployed. Cmdr. Dominic Lovello, NIOC WI Commanding Officer, and Verbitsky traveled to Washington D.C., this month to accept the Command and Analyst awards in person at the 51st Annual AOC International Symposium and Convention. The convention was attended by over 1,300 participants who were representing 95 different organizations.

CPRW-10 Sailors Improve Oak Harbor Memorial (Naval Aircrewman Operator 1st Class Stephanie Balver photos) Naval Aircrewman Avionics 1st Class Jesse Raynor (left) and Senior Chief Naval Aircrewman Operator Mike Barnes shovel gravel for a new patch around the Veterans of Foreign Wars’ Patrol Squadron Memorial on the corner of Pioneer Way and Regatta Drive. The Maritime Patrol Memorial was originally dedicated in September 2006. 

Valiant Shield brings VP-1 to Guam By Lt. j.g. Christina Smith The Maritime Patrol Squadron One (VP-1) Screaming Eagles recently returned from Guam, where they spent two weeks participating in exercise Valiant Shield. Valiant Shield is a biennial, U.S.-only exercise that integrates the Navy, Marine Corps, Army and Air Force. The goal of the exercise is to refine the interoperability of the four services against collective land, sea, air and cyberspace adversaries. This year’s exercise included 18,000 Sailors, over 200 aircraft, and 19 surface ships from two carrier strike groups.

First Class Petty Officer Association (FCPOA) members Yeoman 1st Class Frank Morrell (left) and Naval Aircrewman Operator 1st Class Mauricio Malagon from Commander, Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing 10 (CPRW-10) spruce up the Veterans of Foreign Wars’ Patrol Squadron Memorial in Oak Harbor on Oct. 18, 2014. They coordinated the volunteer project with the city’s Parks and Recreation Department to also re-route a sidewalk that had eroded near the memorial due to its proximity to the beach along Crescent Harbor. 

While in Guam, VP-1 was the Task Group Commander, leading a contingent of maritime patrol and reconnaissance assets from VP-40, VP-69, Fleet Air Reconnaissance Squadron One, VP-5 and VP-45. In addition to managing daily operations, the Screaming Eagles completed 63 missions for 302 tactical flight hours. Flights were conducted around the clock and missions included anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance, and direct and associated support to two carrier strike groups. VP-1’s Combat Aircrew 11 completed a very successful AGM-85K Harpoon air to surface missile engagement as part of a live-fire sinking exercise against the decommissioned 5,000 ton USS Fresno. The shot validated a Maritime Patrol Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA) tactic for long-range, low-altitude Harpoon employment and was the first of its kind in the MPRA community.

 Navy volunteers from CPRW-10 and its Fleet Support Unit, Mobile Operations Command Center and Weapons Tactics Unit along with VQ-1 and the VP-2/P2V Association help remove 4,000 pounds of sod and replace it with 5,000 pounds of gravel. They also edged, trimmed hedges, pressured wash and waxed the memorial. “The erosion made a section of the sidewalk in the park unsafe to walk on and our goal is to make the park community friendly once again,” said Intelligence Specialist 1st Class (IDW/SW/AW) Thomas Yates, CPRW-10’s FCPOA president.

Valiant Shield provided a great opportunity for joint training with other services as well as within the MPRA community. It also gave the squadron a glimpse into operations in the Western Pacific, which was invaluable in their preparations for their upcoming deployment. The hard work and tireless dedication of all in VP-1 helped make Valiant Shield a successful exercise, while also strengthening camaraderie within the squadron.

Caring for every age from head to toe with compassion By Christina Moats It seems many of us will need the services of a physical and/or occupational therapist at some point in our lives. Whether it is a fall, illness or car accident, physical and occupational therapists are the professionals that can make us feel normal again! Oak Harbor is fortunate to have two such highly skilled professionals, who, along with their staff, are ready to help at Rue and Primavera. Wendolyn Rue and Thomas Primavera are the husband and wife team at the helm of Rue & Primavera Occupational & Physical Therapy. Together with their dedicated staff, they provide a full range of physical therapy and occupational therapy services to area residents. The two met 12 years ago while working at an Anacortes hospital. They married two years later and opened their firm, located on Bayshore Drive in Oak Harbor, seven years ago. Together they have a combined 40 years of experience helping patients in need. The three words they choose to describe their business mission are: Compassion, Empathy and Knowledge. When asked what makes them different, Wendy explained that their policy emphasizes one-on-one focus on each patient. The patient will always have 45 minutes with a licensed therapist. This individualized attention sets their patients’ experience apart from other businesses.

COME SEE US AT OUR NEW LOCATION!

Wendy manages and supervises the physical therapy aspects of the business. Some of the areas she specializes in are orthopedic injuries, women’s health, chronic pain, neurological and vestibular disorders. In addition to her passion for helping people get well, Wendy is a mom, a dancer and a person very involved in her community. Born and raised in New York City she now enjoys island life with her family.

Tom is an occupational therapist. As he explains: an occupational therapist is one who helps the patient to become functionally independent after an injury has been healed. He specializes in Hand Therapy and Ergonomic Evaluations. He is also an open water swimmer! Both Rue and Primavera work with civilian and military patients. Each year, the firm chooses a charity to support. This past year they sponsored the “Run in Color� Fun Run. Many enthusiastic participants raised over $7000 for the cause. Rue and Primavera have a firm commitment to continued education, always learning about the latest techniques and treatments. They promise warm, attentive and effective personal care that begins the minute a patient enters their clinic.
