  1. I'm a Beta testor for the new NGA FLIP app and will post a few screen shots and such after figuring it all out. Downloading and installing everything in the next few days Discovered that iOS 5.x or greater is mandatory upon first installation attempt.
  2. An easy analyzation would be to compare the new SOS in-res class size multiply by classes per year then compare that number to the yearly Captain promotion list quantity. However, don't stop there - w.a.g. the backlog of those Captains who haven't been and add that to the promotion quantity until the backlog is depleted. Now compare. Is it sustainable? My guess is no and in that case what could they use as a comparison basis to allocate the scarce slots? SOS via correspondence.
  3. LOL. Straight from the man himself.
  4. Another step closer to becoming droids ourselves, so much for diversity...guess that comes in different programming. edit: sweet picture interweb link fixed
  5. Wonder if they'll have the new syllabus worked out or if they'll be like previous, in-transition, test-less classes? Either way...eight weeks of something.
  6. Heard the same thing from the AMC iPad conference...except the iPads will be significantly locked down (aka no WiFi or non-approved Apps). No mention of Jepp Apps - though definitely needed. We use Jepp's when away from ETAR all the time. So remove the functionality of an iPad and put just e-Pubs, FLIP, and maybe Jepp's ... Big Blue/AMC mothership will screw this up somehow. The Comm SQ is going to love Apple products on their network...not.
  7. That was filled one year ago by a friend of mine. ...TDY to nearest USAF H.A.W.C. for PT tests...go figure.
  8. FAIL. To fight the Finance shoes your midichlorian count (aka AFI, JFTR, and DoD FMR knowledge) must be higher than theirs. Reference attached young padawan, and don't spread rumors that screw other people out of money or lead them to jail. U4131 APARTMENT, HOUSE, OR RECREATIONAL VEHICLE REIMBURSEMENT WHILE TDY A. General. An apartment, house, or recreational vehicle (includes a mobile home, a camper, a camping trailer, or self-propelled mobile recreational vehicle) qualifies as lodging. Par. U4129-E applies for lodging with a friend/ relative. B. Expenses. In determining the daily amount of expense items which do not accrue on a daily basis such as cost for connection/ disconnection of utilities, dumping fees, shower fees, cleaning charges, monthly telephone use fee, etc., these expenses are averaged over the number of days the traveler is authorized per diem during the entire TDY trip. Allowable lodging expenses are: 1. Apartment, house, or recreational vehicle rent; 2. Parking space for the recreational vehicle rent; 3. Appropriate and necessary furniture rental, such as a stove, refrigerators, chairs, tables, beds, sofas, television, and a vacuum cleaner; 4. Connection, use, and disconnection costs of utilities including electricity, natural gas, water, fuel oil and sewer charges; 5. Dumping fees; 6. Shower fees; 7. Maid fees and cleaning charges
  9. Patriot Riders escorted a good man through Ft. Leavenworth this afternoon. It was done right. Them, them.
  10. Even Man vs. Food isn't perfect. Glorious satisfaction obtained http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZaJExdcJZw.
  11. Now that's what I'm talking about! Great eats round' the Rock.
  12. We tried that, except he couldn't survive outside nor wanted to be outside ever. The cat fought to get back inside. Then when inside scratched up some people a couple of times. It was de-claw or put-down because giving away the cat wasn't an option. BTW - it it makes you feel any better it was only the front claws. Right up your alley
  13. Whilst reading the new AFI 36-29-oh.shenanigans. I discovered perhaps this little gem.... 8.5.1.1. Configure Velcro on the Flight Jacket like the FDU/DFDU Which means the pen/pencil pocket should have velcro and doesn't. Stick with me here...and the no morale are authorized in the subsection covering the flight suit pen/pencil pocket(8.3 FDU/DFDU) but flight jackets are in section 8.4... ...and since it says, "If the pen and pencil pocket cover is removed, a morale patch is not authorized on the remaining Velcro." Which the pocket cover wasn't removed but velcro must be added to match the FDU. I submit to you Morale patches authorized on flight jackets (and ignoring the original intention of no moral patches).
  14. We took our cat to the Vet down the road from Boyd's. Animal Hospital I think, the one by Sonic Drive-in. They did a god job de-clawing our cat. The place smelled like old animal pee when we picked up our cat.
  15. Ohh, can't go wrong w/ cats on your shirt. Nice art kid.
  16. I know of a few CP's landings that felt like this...

    Dammit, answer the man! (My team #6).
  18. Insert funny caption here...kind of like AF Times but don't hold back. Best caption wins by popular vote.
  19. Kozel Svetly - from Ukraine hotel room mini-fridge because two weddings are taking up the hotel bar (anyone speak Russian or Ukrainian?) and it's the only thing open within a 1 mile walk. Flavor: 6 of 10 Novelty: 9 of 10 Price: 10 doofers ($1.25)
  20. You mean there is a process to reverse the process?!
