LA Appointment
DS received a nomination from both Rep Scalise and Senator Landrieu. He has accepted an appointment to USNA but I don't know who it was charged to.

Sharing BWI Shuttle Ride
Anyone interested in sharing a super shuttle ride between BWI and the Naval Academy for the CVW on 12-1-11 and 12-3-11? Cost for one person is $35 each way and $12 for each additional person so cost drops significantly with more riders. Up to 10 people can share a van.
