Are there and baseball academies for adult players?
Q. I am 34 and recently joined an adult team. i haven't played for a long time, but it's fun and my instincts are still somewhat in tact. I'd be interested in going to a baseball academy for a few days to get some coaching, and maybe even see if I can get back on the mound. Does anyone know of any such academies with programs/services for adult players?

How does the CHP academy compare to Sheriff Academies?
Q. I'm interested in joining the CHP Academy, but I want to know how it compares (generally) to the Sheriff Academies. I've been watching "The Academy" reality show (LA County Sheriff's Department) and I'm wondering if this is what I would expect in the CHP Academy or if it's different...
Asked by a n d r o i d - Sun Mar 29 20:38:34 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Much different. The CHP Academy is a full time live in academy. You live there in a boot camp setting. The other academies let you go home at night, although you are still plenty busy with work to be done for the following day. Ick, avoid the chippies, unless you enjoy nasty accidents and enforcing vehicular code violations.

Can I get into Bergen County Academies or any high school requiring admission even though I don't play sports?
Q. I'm not playing sports at middle school. I'm planning on playing in high school, because there isn't much variety here. Do I still have a chance of getting into Bergen County Academies, or any high school requiring admission if I do good in school & on the test?

Which one of the service academies does one have the best chance of becoming a pilot.?
Q. I have heard that it is hard to become a pilot in the air force, because only the top 10% make it. Any information on the academies would be great.
Asked by That Guy - Tue Jul 6 13:54:44 2010 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In the Air Force the difficulty of attaining a flight school slot varies with commissioning source. In most years any Cadet at the Air Force Academy who qualifies and wants a flight school slot gets one. Afrotc is far more competitve. This is because each year the Air Force assigns around 500 flight school slots to 1000 Lieutenants commissioning at the Academy and 500 flight school slots to 2200 Lieutenants commissioning through Afrotc. Flight School slots are also readily available to any Mid who qualifies at the Naval Academy. About 40% of Naval Academy Mids continue on to Flight School. The difference between the Air Force and the Navy and Marines is that flight school slots are also readily available to Ensigns and Lieutenants… [cont.]

A. So you're looking to get a job at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland... First things first: what are your qualifications? As with any university, there will be strict requirements with regard to the level of education necessary to be an educator there. Most universities have a minimum requirement of a Masters degree (with the proviso that you are also seeking a PhD) to just get in the door, so I'd say that if you've already achieved your Doctorate, then you are well on your way. The U.S. Naval Academy has a web site which lists employment opportunities ( so I would recommend checking there for any faculty positions currently available.

Is it true that people who graduated from military academies are given better treatment?
Q. I have heard from someone who graduated from the Air Force academy that because the government has spent so much money on you, they are reluctant to send you into the most hostile situations. Is this true?
Asked by Michael - Fri Feb 19 23:38:29 2010 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Someone is either pulling your leg, or delusional... or both. People are deployed based on the needs of the military and where they went to school has absolutely nothing what so ever to do with if they are deployed or not. Wouldn't you think that it would be just the opposite? Think of it this way. If the Government really did spend all that money training them, then in theory, they would be better officers because more money was spent on them, hence the more effective in combat they should be. Therefore, they should be deployed more often, for longer periods, and put into the toughest positions. The Government doesn't spend a lot of money training people just to keep them safe in the rear.

But some of the top in USA are the Aspen Music Festival, Tanglewood, and Brevard Music Center. Aspen is definately the most prestigious. If you are interested in chamber music, Marlboro in Vermont is top notch. good luck!

A. Just try it out to see if it has Wi-fi. I did it at my school with my touch and it worked, but i don't know if your school would have it too. The best way to know if you have wifi is if your school uses laptops, or other wireless things. The bad news is, the school probably found out I was using the wi-fi, and locked the network. I couldn't use my ipod after that.

Asked by KineGirl - Sat May 26 23:14:59 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Most Congressmen or Senators have a link on their webpage for the application for a nomination to a military academy. After abuses in the 50's and 60's, most congressmen have a set series of guidelines they use to determine who they recommend. If your Congressmen does not have a link on their webpage, then you can either ask the guidence councelor at your childs highschool or call the local office of the Congressmen. Make sure you fill out applications from both Senators and your represenative.
