It has been officially announced that due to the sequester, the annual NYC city Fleet Week has been canceled for 2013.

Thank You

I am about to contact my local BGO for the first time but I am curious as to how to address one. Is it sir (I know mine is a male) or something else?

Like what Dixieland said you should by new shoes every now and then (my track coach says they will begin to wear out and one can risk injury).

Both High school Football and Wrestling is highly acceptable and lettering in both of them is an accomplishment, however I do recommend doing a spring sport as well (not just for the academy) As someone who does Football, and 2 seasons of track a year (winter/spring) I can not stress enough how...
