Not so much their implementation of SCP (supply chain planning) - they don't utilize MRP (material requirements planning) in the traditional fashion. Instead, they bolted on a method whereby the still use the old fashioned requirements stack (using a requirements objective - which does not exist in the context of a backwards scheduling MRP system).
I think my wife wants the new iphone - because she dropped her 4S the day they announced the 5. It fell from a bedside table (maybe 2.5 feet!) onto a ceramic tile floor - totally shattered.
For context, I was homeschooled 6th-10th grades, went to a private school for 11th, then left to dual-enroll in a local community college for my senior year.
If "formal" chemistry education is what you are looking for at some point and no local home school group offers it, then do it yourself! What I mean by that is, organize a class in conjuction with other local homeschool parents. When I needed my language courses in 9th/10th grade, we found a professor at a local university who was willing to come teach 15-20 kids - we all just paid him directly.
There are also plenty of video and online type homeschool courses for the various subjects. Homeschooling is a big business, since many people (religious or not) are sick of the public school systems.
I do, and I have the issue. When I am out in good signal areas, I have no issues at all. But it is now horrible when I hold at at my home where my average signal was good, but not great with my iPhone 3G.
I now talk with it on speakerphone or have to hold it very carefully on the top of the phone or else I will drop the call (at home). I can reproduce this every time I use the phone. If I am just browsing on wifi holding the phone in the palm of my hand with the "death grip", then about 50% of the time I show no bars, and the other half it says "No Service". My wife, using my old iPhone 3G right next to me will show to change at all (holding steady between 2-3 bars).
Good post. One correction though, it is from NASA the space agency - there is no "National Aeronautics Safety Administration" - at least that I am aware of. Here is the link to the ASRS site, where people can read "CALLBACK", the monthly NASA safety bulletin based on submissions to the Aviation Safety Reporting System.
Many airports out there don't have ILS approaches and are dependent on GPS approaches (yes, for the final approach) - or even the soon to be defunct NDB approaches. Granted, that isn't the case for major airports, but in situations where ADS-B is utilized, such as Alaska, GPS is probably used quite a bit for approaches.
ATRRS? LOL...it is a conspiracy - the DOD wants you to sign up in ATRRS to take Defense Acqusition University courses. Heaven help you - don't do it - they will literally bore you to DEATH!
It's already been said several times that you need to start establishing credit - but you are also going to need a bank account sometime in the future for many jobs. Okay, not all require it - but I do know the last two employers I have worked for require direct deposit. Also, I work for the federal gov't now, and you are required to have a credit card to go on official travel - at some point, you will need to learn to be a little more trusting of established financial institutions!
I am a DoD employee and saw them take this step a few weeks ago (without any notice, of course).
They don't block HTML mail specifically, but every email is "converted to plain text" by outlook. A very, very big hassle, especially when the boss likes to highlight and bold text in his emails. He can still do this because Outlook doesn't force you to compose in plain text. However, when it gets to the employees it can be confusing due to the conversion process (especially to the "old" folks who can't figure out how to convert it back to HTML).
They actually have disabled many of the options in Outlook so there is no way to allow Outlook to always show emails as HTML. A major pain, in my opinion. I always have a need to format tables of infomation and embed them in my emails. Oh well, time to change my ways - life goes on.
First year First Officer pay at ASA, Skywest and most other regionals is around $19-$20 an hour... this is based on flight time... around 75-85 a month, but it varies greatly..
I currently make less than $15 an hour teaching people how to fly...and I only get paid when I am with a student... I could make more money as a waiter! Computers will never fully replace pilots in the cockpit. Heck, even those "drones" the military uses are flown by humans on the ground!
Check out this data collected by NASA's ASRS. It details many specific events regarding PED (Passenger Electronic Devices)... but I do agree with many posters on here that more study needs to be done.

forgot to mention - she had a case on it, too!

Just an interesting read - a few pilot reports about lasers:

Thank you for posting the most sensible comment I have seen so far.

You can patch a kernel but you can't install Windows.... that's pretty sad.
It really isn't all the painful... the only painful part is having to reinstall it every three months!
RTFA: "The search for a solution began seven years ago"
If I remember correctly, seven years ago was before Bush's presidency began.
I know that Polaroid has one and Fuji has one...
I have seen the Fuji and Kodak kiosks side by side in Walmart.
It is a shame that many general aviation pilots won't be able to attend!
