The Melbourne area beaches are great! Lots of beaches to choose from. If you take 528 east to Cocoa Beach and head south on A1A you will see many beaches, some in Sattelite Beach, and Indian Harbor beach have covered picnic areas, playgrounds, volleyball and grills.

There is a large public beach on A1A and 192 in Indialantic. There are restaurants there, pizza shops, and surf shops.

Have fun, and keep in mind that there are lifeguards, but only in the public beach areas.

PM me if you need more info.

Anyone know why the ringtone on an Iphone 4 would just stop? I was playing a game on it and the sound just stopped. I've checked the switch and volume buttons on the side and the "ringer and alerts" volume is up in the settings menu. Vibrate works fine.

yeah, I said crack.


Scambo,

It has something to do with the trip coverage sequence. I am not 100% sure, but they might be asking for out of base reserves more than 1 day out, if they are short on in base reserves. Since out of base W/s are not filled until they day prior - they canno't use line holders.

If they can't fill it with reserves, it might eventually go to a white slip.

Anyway its something like that.

Ahhh, the media. I heard the report on the radio: The "turborprops" performed a "belly flop" on the runway. smh

Question for the scheduling/icrew experts - where can you go to find the number of green slips given out by base & equipment in any given day? I'm moving to Minne in a month, even though I'm Atlanta based, and would like to eventually volunteer for out of base green slips.
