Snickers Commercial Has Shark Fans Snickering

Snickers Shark AdHave you seen the Snickers candy commercial featuring the talking great white sharks?  (If you haven't, you can check it out on YouTube.) The commercial has stirred up controversy in the shark world. Some think it wrongly reinforces the myth that sharks like to eat people.

We think it's OK to laugh, as long as you know that in real life, sharks like to eat seals and sea lions, not people. (Not even if the people have eaten lots of Snickers candy.)

Each fall, white sharks travel to San Francisco's Farallon Islands to feed on the area's population of elephant seals and sea lions. We take shark divers to the Farallones in hopes of witnessing these natural feeding events, known as predations.

Shark season is late September through mid-November and trips depart from San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf. Cage divers pay $875 and topside observers pay $375.  No dive experience is required. For available dates and more details, contact us.

April 12 is a Big Big Day in Space

50th Anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's historic space flightOn April 12, 1961, Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the very first man in space. Exactly 20 years later, on April 12, 1981, America launched Columbia, the country's first space shuttle.

If you're good at math, you know this year marks the 50th anniversary of Gagarin's historic flight and the 30th anniversary of Columbia's historic flight. The anniversaries are not going unnoticed. Events are planned worldwide to honor these achievements in space travel.

To see some of the events planned, please visit www.yurigagarin50.org and www.yurisnight.net.

In Florida, workers at Kennedy Space Center gathered to pay tribute to the shuttle by making a human one for an aerial photo. See the video here.

Zero Gravity Flights in Florida with Incredible AdventuresOf course, we think the best way to celebrate space is by going weightless.  You don't have to be an astronaut to experience zero-gravity. Private zero-gravity flights are available all year long in sunny St Petersburg, Florida for just $2500. Call or email for complete details.

For Doctors Only

Our friends at the Direct Action Resource Center in Little Rock, Arkansas now offer a one-of-a-kind training course for licensed Health Care Professionals (HCPs) with interest or involvement in Humanitarian Assistance & Disaster Relief. Their new "Austere Medical Program" is designed to prepare HCPs for the incredible challenge of delivering advanced surgical care under adverse conditions. The live-tissue Unconventional Surgical Immersion Course (USIC) is a humanitarian medical action program that replicates a real-world disaster scenario. It's taught by former Green Berets and some of the top surgeons in the United States from universities like Harvard, Yale, UConn, UC Davis, University of Florida and Emory.

Video posted to YouTube shows just how realistic the training is. (Yes, that's our very own Hawke teaching survival skills. Hawke supports the Austere Medical Program by either personally teaching the course or by arranging for another Specops Green Beret Medic to lead the survival training. Hawke will be back leading survival courses for Specops and Incredible Adventures once his hit Discovery Show "Man, Woman, Wild" wraps up filming.)

If you are a licensed Health Care Professional interested in participating, or want information on how your corporation can become involved in sponsoring one or more U.S. Surgical Teams, please send us an email.
