                      Wednesday, December 6, 2006

  Mr. CALVERT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the outstanding 
and professional effort of the staff working in the National 
Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Printing and Design 
Office for their high quality work, and contribution to NASA's overall 
mission. Throughout the course of a legislative cycle, NASA officials 
meet with Members of Congress and their staff via meetings, briefings 
and Congressional Hearings. The effectiveness of these interactions is 
directly attributed to the quality of the products developed by the 
staff of NASA's Printing and Design Office. Under the outstanding 
leadership and commitment of the Printing and Design staff, the Agency 
has been prepared and able to present professional briefing charts, 
Congressional testimony, posters and publications to the United States 
Congress in an exemplary manner.
  The staff includes: the Head of Printing and Design Office, Michael 
Crnkovic; the Printing Officer, Stanley Artis; the Printing Specialist, 
Jeffrey McLean; the Customer Service personnel, Frantz Casmir; the 
Duplication Specialists, Carl Hammond and Ondray Mackin; and, the 
Distribution Clerk, Carl Paul. In addition, the competent, professional 
and expert Exhibit Design Team, consisting of Michael Barnes, Ray Brown 
and Steve Schaeberle, has enabled NASA to present montages depicting 
various Space Shuttle missions to Members of Congress that are proudly 
displayed and observed by all who visit these Members' offices.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing NASA's Printing and 
Design Team for its role in presenting the Vision for Space 
Exploration.
