Mars Audio Log #10 - NASA
We’re definitely going to get some trips in and I look forward to that in the future. Our crew reunions will undoubtedly be chosen for beautiful places in some way as a tribute to the fact of we gave up a year not being necessarily, being in a different type of beauty and a more limited type. And I hope that when we do crew reunions will honor that by actually going to truly beautiful places and experiencing the outdoors. So that should be really fun. What’s coming up in the next month? So we’re kind of, I’m going to be honest, we’re in kind of the grind of the mission right now. So, you know, as an experiment, we have to repeat a lot of things. And so we’re not doing necessarily a ton of new things right now. We’re doing our exercise, we’re doing our EVAs of different sorts, both virtual reality and non-virtual reality in our sandbox. So we’re doing a lot of repetition right now. It might not sound glamorous, but it is definitely, we still get to do new things that are sort of new flavors of those things when we’re outside. But to be honest, we’re actually really grinding through like a good solid five or six weeks of mostly EVAs, a lot of stuff that we’ve maybe done before, but we’ll be repeating and also our different testing that we’ll be doing. So at the moment we’re kind of a little grindy and I think that that’s, you know, going to be a good challenge for us to actually keep motivated, keep happy while we’re doing, you know, a lot of repetition. That being said, we have several birthdays coming up and we have some other special occasions like Mission Day 300, which is coming up in April. So that’s going to be a really big day for the crew. And I think we’re going to celebrate a really big time, cause that’s a huge accomplishment to be in here for 300 days. So I think those are some really key things that we’ll be doing in the next month.
2024 Public Comments to Preliminary Applications
Trails getting blocked, slides due to burnoff. With the limited staff the forest people cannot keep up. Volunteers have been helping but that is limited. Douglas McCay - 5/4/2024

As a volunteer and recreational user in the Mendocino I fully support the grant for the forest. I wish other National Forests in California had programs like Mendocino that recognize OHV recreation and work to improve it. Bruce Hendrickson - 5/4/2024

 USFS - Modoc National Forest

 USFS - Plumas National Forest

Hello, as a MTBr, Hiker and OHV user, I support this grant and feel it will positively impact the local economy, increase recreational use and keep the forests viable for future generations to enjoy. I support this grant, thanks Alan Walls Alan Walls - 3/7/2024

 USFS - San Bernardino National Forest

I have both cycled and hiked on some of the SBNF trails on San Jacinto and passed plenty of people enjoying all possible varieties of OHV usage. The trails are universally increasingly eroded and rutted. Culverts are becoming blocked or eroded. Signs are missing or down. Signboards are in desperate need of a refresh. Elsewhere, fences and barriers are lacking or in disrepair, and signs prohibiting off-trail access down or missing. Off-trail areas are becoming eroded with unofficial new 'trails' and vegetation damaged. This also leads to off-trail camping etc. In general, existing usage and access is becoming rapidly degraded, while off-trail usage is damaging the NF and increasing the risk of wildfire starts. I fully support this grant application as a matter of increasing urgency for maintaining easy and safe access to the NF and reducing wildfire risk. Andy Ridgwell - 3/12/2024

I would like to comment on the San Bernardino National Forest grant application on behalf of the California Off Road Vehicle Association. First, I would like to say this is a big, expensive grant, but one that is important to the many people who use this forest for recreation. I learned something new from reading the application and think it is great.
Community Nursing Home Program | VA Portland Health Care | Veterans Affairs
Respite: This care is for Veterans whose chronic health problems require a continuous caregiver at home. Respite care provides temporary care giving relief at one of our VA Community NH Placements. This option is available up to 30 days per calendar year and can be used in one setting or broken up into two 15-day settings.
Hospice Care: This care is for SC and NSC Veterans with a terminal illness who require the daily support of skilled nursing staff. A VA provider must certify hospice care is appropriate. In addition, NSC Veterans must have a documented prognosis of less than two months by an MD or NP. An NSC Veteran can only be granted a one time, contracting exception of 60 days, to bridge to Medicaid or private pay.
Impact of benefits and compensation
Veterans Benefit Administration does not reduce SC compensation due to CNH admission, but the Aid and Attendance portion of the benefit ends after 90 days and may result in an over payment. A Veteran or responsible family member should make arrangements to set aside Aid and Attendance funds in the event they should be repaid to the VBA.
Included CNH benefits
The VA CNH Program per diem rate is intended to be all inclusive and covers the following areas:

Skilled nursing care 24 hours/day;
A semi-private room (Veterans can choose to pay extra for a private room if available);
Evaluation of therapy needs;
Approved therapy services (pre-authorization required)
House MD services at the CNH;

2024 Public Comments to Preliminary Applications
Thanks Eastern Sierra 4X4 Club - 4/13/2024

We are a part of the Eastern Sierra 4x4 Club and we use the many trails at our disposal. One of our favorites is the Coyote Flats often. Since we access it throughout the year we will try our best to keep it accesible despite the times where weather or people who damage the trail. Our county has beautiful areas to see and have adventures but if they are not maintained we all lose out. We will go with other members of our group our last time being on March 23rd for about a four hour period. Joanna Diener - 4/13/2024

I / we have been enjoying the Coyote Valley area since the late 60's using two wheel and four wheel to access this area. The Coyote Valley road in recent years has seen considerable damage due to heavy rain and snowfall making impassible at times. Thanks to private citizens in recent times the road has been made safe and passable. It would be beneficial to implement a annual or semi-annual maintenance program as this road provides access for vehicles driven or ridden by all age groups. This also gives access this area for persons with physical impairments or challenges. This is a beautiful area that should be enjoyed by all for scenic, hunting, fishing and camping uses. By awarding a grant to the ATS it would give the actual citizens that use this area and understand what it requires to maintain it. Coyote is one of the few vehicle accessible gems of the Sierras, lets keep it open! On another note a little farther north is the Sand Canyon access road to Wheeler Ridge. It too has been closed due to heavy winters runoff. This road also gives path to breathtaking views of the Rock Creek Canyon and Mountain top views down to the Round Valley. This is another area that would benefit from an annual maintenance program. This would provide recreation for Campers, hikers, hunters, 4x4's, motorcycles and site-seers. Thank you for considering and reviewing these comments, Dennis Vetter Dennis Vetter - 4/17/2024

This project is very much needed for the Inyo National Forest off highway roads.

Women’s History Month: Meet Denise Ryan - NASA
The other traditional that isn’t strange, but I think is valuable is that we sit together for dinner as a family.
If you could master a skill without any work, what would it be?
I think mastering a musical instrument would be my choice – specifically the Cello. I can play basic chords on a Ukulele and Guitar, but I’m far from being a master, more like a beginner.

Mars Audio Log #10 - NASA
Probably because it usually hits us in places where we didn’t really expect to see them. For instance, you know, if we have a technical glitch or, you know, hardware, we had a, basically a little computer program or a little computer device that had a fan that was going bad on it, and it got pretty noisy and it was in the room where we work as the inside version of the EVA, so the IVA. And so it was really distracting, really loud background noise. And so try to figure out, you know, is this something we just deal with? You know, do we just try and fix it knowing there’s no backup if something goes wrong? You know, how do you deal with that reach? I remember reaching out to mission control  and we found out just like so many other times that communicating actual issues we were experiencing was really difficult. So that meant we had to get creative because of leadership on our own.
Ross Brockwell: Always sacrificed to monitor, right? So made an executive decision to trim down what needed to be plugged in so we could get the thing working. So it’s a good example of that.
Nathan Jones: Yeah. But you really have to think about, you know, what you’re going to do whenever you’re solving problems, you know, is it better to just say, “Okay, we’re not just going to use this monitor anymore.” Is it deal with potentially the distraction, putting a crew at risk? You know, the particular computer was going to an essential device. So we ended up moving it offline to one that was less essential, I think, in the end, like I said, and kind of worked our way through it. But it was difficult the communication delays.
Ross Brockwell: Yeah. Like what you said, time flies. It always flies. It seems like you have slow moments, but time flies kind of no matter what. So it’s just a thought for the listeners that keep that in mind. Don’t take anything for granted.
2024 Public Comments to Preliminary Applications
USFS - Cleveland National Forest

I write as a resident of Santa Ana. This is an excellent proposal. I am excited at the prospect of it receiving funding. Responsible use of public OHV lands will need funding as outlined in the application. Thank you for your consideration. Nathaniel Greensides - 4/17/2024

I would like to comment on the Cleveland National Forest grant applications on behalf of the California Off Road Vehicle Association. I was in Corral Canyon today trimming Ranger trail with all the others at a trail working day. I thank Gabe for being there with us. I looked around and the area looks like it is well maintained. The grants for the north and south both look reasonable, even modest compared to others. What I would really like to see is an expansion of opportunities in Wildomar. 8 miles of trails is simply not enough. You say in the application that there are 20 million people and 729,000 OHV's in the region. I would love to see a general plan amendment to increase the amount of routes. I also saw you want to spend $65,000 to maintain those 8 miles at Wildomar. That is a crazy high amount of money for 8 miles. That is $8,000 per mile. How much work is really being done there? One pass in the spring should be 1/10 the cost. Maybe I should start a business, because I know I can save you a heck of a lot of money there. If I could have one wish granted from the CNF, I would ask for Carveacre trail to be re-opened. Ed Stovin - 5/4/2024

 USFS - Inyo National Forest

This proposal should be funded. The Covid pandemic brought a lot of people to our area who had no idea how to properly recreate in a rural environment and many caused damage. Since then our area has experienced a huge increase in the number of people who recreate in Inyo and Mono counties and that trend it is going to continue. Many of these visitors recreate with vehicles on public lands.
2024 Public Comments to Preliminary Applications
We are in support of this grant. Ken Hower President Rubicon trail Foundation Ken Hower - 4/13/2024

The Rubicon Trail Foundation (RTF)is a 501{c} 3 educational charity whose mission is to enhance the future health and use of the Rubicon Trail while ensuring responsible year around trail access. We have encouraged and supported the El Dorado County Sheriffs Office (EDSO) providing patrols on the Rubicon Trail for many years. They have done an excellent job enforcing, working with the community, and helping to keep the trail safe and environmentally sound. We are specifically in support of the EDSO’s grant request for a Jeep vehicle to replace their 2007 patrol vehicle as it has many trail miles on it and has become unreliable. The foundation (RTF) has communicated with the EDSO on this project and pledged our support financially (for matching funds as necessary) and to assist within the community and with vendors to outfit and equip the new vehicle. We are in support of this grant. Ken Hower President Rubicon trail Foundation Ken Hower - 4/17/2024

 Fresno County Sheriff's Office

 Humboldt County Sheriff's Office

 Imperial County Sheriff's Office

 Inyo County Sheriff's Department

This request for funding should be approved. Inyo and Mono counties have experienced a huge increase in the numbers of people who recreate here and that trend it is going to continue. Most of these folks access the area by vehicle. Public compliance with all resource laws and regulations ensures that we will have a beautiful and healthy area to enjoy for years to come. ICSO has had an effective OHV patrol for years, funded by these grants, and that should continue. Enforcement needs all the help it can get to properly patrol an area of this size and that is this remote. The contacts I have had with their officers in the field have been great.
