I have never clearly understood operational advantages of cloud technology and ERP implementation. This was a super helpful article by a Huron colleague to break it all down in a way that was clear to me.

I recommend this to anyone starting on chapter books w/their kids. Some passages introduced concepts (parent's death by rhinoceros) or words (fat & ugly) that my kid isn't ready for, but overall it was a feel-good book that fired up his imagination.

When did you let your kid(s) watch Star Wars for the first time?

Don't reply if you are wondering episode IV or episode I

Meaningful change most often comes after approaching a problem from multiple angles and perspectives. This engagement summary highlights some ways that Huron and a community hospital accomplished just that.

The Choice Act and Mission Act have enabled thousands of veterans to get care outside of VA when needed but how does care in the community rate against care at the VA? This article summarizes a study that sought to answer just that.

@mil_LEADER Middle mgmt in consulting here & this is spot on from my perspective. There will always be more work than hours in the day. My supervisors have helped by challenging me on my definition of mission critical tasks & encouraging me to delay non critical tasks to maintain balance.

We all adapted on the fly to virtual work due to COVID but now is a great time to shift from reactive tactics to proactive virtual workforce strategies in order to set up a successful 2021.

Vaccine roll-outs are starting but testing, tracing, and treatment strategies have to complement the vaccination strategy and will continue even after the pandemic is "under control."

No no no. The things I saw about Chuck Yeager in the movies seemed waaay too far fetched to be reality. I just "rediscovered" him two days ago when starting the book "The Right Stuff." What a life he lived.

@MrDonnyEvans Agreed! I don't think I've heard of a show, before or after, that took a harder nosedive than Dexter. Super skeptical if anything can save it at this point. But I'm totally watching it.

Watch history on October 20 when NASA attempts the landing. The "10 things" here are pretty wild!

[NASA @NASA]

The "rubble-pile" asteroid Bennu is covered in rocky debris, and is over 4.5 billion years old — but might harbor hints about the origins of life on Earth. 10 things to know before our @OSIRISREx spacecraft goes #ToBennuAndBack to collect a sample Oct. 20: https://t.co/zJVbH4KSy5

@JABell27 Thank you so much! I will check with Navy History and Heritage Command as you mentioned. I really appreciate your assistance!

[Andy @ajney]

Hey #miltwitter, any Navy WW2 history folks out there?

Working on a shadowbox as a gift for my mom to rep her dad's service and would like to get close to accurate. I have some incomplete records to go off and a good start.

Cc @JABell27 and @wardcarroll

[Andy @ajney]

@JABell27 @wardcarroll I have a "Notice of Separation" from National Personnel Records Center which I think predated 214.

The notice documents he was an Aviation Metalsmith 2nd Class and entitled to Good Conduct Medal.

Do you know of any service awards or Navy uniform insignia standard to the era?

[Andy @ajney]

My son has a newfound love of disco thanks to Despicable Me. We play Spotify through the TV and I died when he said he loves to listen to "Three Guys."

[Andy @ajney]

This is worth the time to read if the confluence of race, history, land management, hunting, and politics interest you.

It says a lot of positive things about a book if you read it 20, 30, or 40 years after it was written and simply know all of the concepts. That said, there is a middle ground where you can appreciate the work but not recommend the book to others.
