|[jira] Updated: (MAPREDUCE-1067) Default state of queues is undefined when unspecified
|Thu, 24 Dec 2009 05:41:30 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1067?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Hemanth Yamijala updated MAPREDUCE-1067: ---------------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) I have some feedback: - In QueueConfigurationParser.getQueueElement, we have specifically removed the check queueState != null when appending a 'state' element to the Queue element. It seems like the check is useful for preventing errors. Is there a specific reason for doing this ? For e.g. would it not be true that there could be a leaf queue given a null State on construction ? We should either prevent it in the construction or here, no ? - bq. Also, state of a container queue should not be allowed to change once the hierarchy is built. I think the way this works is when queue configuration is refreshed, a state change for container queues will result in exceptions being thrown when the QueueConfigurationParser parses and constructs Queue objects (using setState or addChild). This results in a RuntimeException that will be handled only by the IPC handler on the server. I think no useful information about the error will reach the admin. Can you please verify if this is the case ? If yes, I think it must be fixed to be handled more gracefully, and a better error message must be given. Same holds for first time construction of hierarchy as well. - testQueueState should be split into multiple test cases. Typically, it is good practice to test one condition / aspect of a unit in one unit test case. It makes test case maintenance easier. There are atleast 3 distinct tests I am seeing in this test case - The first part of the test testQueueState is verifying a message that doesn't seem correct. For e.g. I think the XML is semantically correct, but since a queue state is defined for a container queue, construction fails. Then why are we getting an exception whose message is "Malformed xml formation queue tag and acls tags or state tags are siblings" ? The code is incorrect if this test is passing. - Shouldn't there be test cases testing refresh of queue state for container queues and verify they fail ? - There should also be a case to test that when a queue is constructed with state stopped, and then children are added to it, an exception is thrown. It is arguable if this is the right design - i.e. we should probably have ContainerQueue as a first class citizen and then we can always prevent an invalid state for such an instance, but possibly that's a separate JIRA. > Default state of queues is undefined when unspecified > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1067 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1067 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: jobtracker > Affects Versions: 0.21.0 > Reporter: V.V.Chaitanya Krishna > Assignee: V.V.Chaitanya Krishna > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-1067-1.patch, MAPREDUCE-1067-2.patch, MAPREDUCE-1067-3.patch, MAPREDUCE-1067-4.patch, MAPREDUCE-1067-5.patch, MAPREDUCE-1067-6.patch > > > Currently, if the state of a queue is not specified, it is being set to "undefined" state instead of running state. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Genome-wide associations for milk production and somatic cell score in Holstein-Friesian cattle in Ireland
Contemporary dairy breeding goals have broadened to include, along with milk production traits, a number of non-production-related traits in an effort to improve the overall functionality of the dairy cow. Increased indirect selection for resistance to mastitis, one of the most important production-related diseases in the dairy sector, via selection for reduced somatic cell count has been part of these broadened goals. A number of genome-wide association studies have identified genetic variants associated with milk production traits and mastitis resistance, however the majority of these studies have been based on animals which were predominantly kept in confinement and fed a concentrate-based diet (i.e. high-input production systems). This genome-wide association study aims to detect associations using genotypic and phenotypic data from Irish Holstein-Friesian cattle fed predominantly grazed grass in a pasture-based production system (low-input).
Significant associations were detected for milk yield, fat yield, protein yield, fat percentage, protein percentage and somatic cell score using separate single-locus, frequentist and multi-locus, Bayesian approaches. These associations were detected using two separate populations of Holstein-Friesian sires and cows. In total, 1,529 and 37 associations were detected in the sires using a single SNP regression and a Bayesian method, respectively. There were 103 associations in common between the sires and cows across all the traits. As well as detecting associations within known QTL regions, a number of novel associations were detected; the most notable of these was a region of chromosome 13 associated with milk yield in the population of Holstein-Friesian sires.
A total of 276 of novel SNPs were detected in the sires using a single SNP regression approach. Although obvious candidate genes may not be initially forthcoming, this study provides a preliminary framework upon which to identify the causal mechanisms underlying the various milk production traits and somatic cell score. Consequently this will deepen our understanding of how these traits are expressed.
Dairy production is an economically important sector of global agriculture with the top 10 leading dairy companies turning over in excess of $114 billion in 2009
QTL associated with milk production and SCS have been extensively reviewed by, amongst others, Khatkar et al.
The sequencing of the bovine genome and the subsequent HapMap project made large amounts of genetic markers available in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This massive increase in marker numbers allied with the emergence of high-throughout genotyping technologies allowed routine genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to be performed in cattle populations. GWAS allow screening of the genome utilising a large number of genetic markers spread across the entire genome to detect genetic variants associated with a particular disease or trait. The majority of recent GWAS employ SNPs as genetic markers. SNPs may not themselves be responsible for the variation observed in a trait, however, due to their close proximity to un-genotyped causal variants they have been co-inherited and so can act as proxies for the unknown causal variants
In general, GWAS studies to date have identified important genomic regions using single locus association methods whereby each individual SNP is tested for association with the trait of interest. This method has proved useful in its straight-forward implementation and interpretation, however, it has been hampered by the large number of false positive results produced due to the large number of markers and hence individual statistical tests. This problem has been somewhat addressed through multiple correction techniques such as the false discovery rate (FDR)
Irrespective of the statistical approach or study design used, most QTL studies to-date in cattle have largely been undertaken using phenotypic data originating from high-input, concentrate-based dairy production systems. Genotype by environment (GxE) interactions have, however, been reported between high- (i.e. animals predominantly kept in confinement and fed a concentrate-based diet) and low-input production (i.e. animals fed a predominantly forage-based diet in a pasture-based production system) systems
The objective of this study was to identify regions of the genome associated with milk production traits and SCS in cattle fed a basal diet of grazed grass (low-input system) using single SNP regression in a dataset of 914 Holstein-Friesian sires. A multi-locus, Bayesian approach in the same population and a single SNP regression analysis in a separate population of Holstein-Friesian cows were conducted to provide further support to the associations.
Significant associations
Two populations of 914 Holstein-Friesian AI sires and 493 Holstein-Friesian cows were used to quantify associations between genotypic and phenotypic data. A summary of the various phenotypes and the correlations between them in the sire dataset are detailed in Table

The use of a single SNP regression approach in a population of 493 Holstein-Friesian cows endeavoured to replicate any previous associations in a semi-independent population. The average additive relationship among the sires was 0.046, was 0.040 among the cows, and was 0.038 between the sires and cows. Significant associations detected for the two statistical approaches in the sires and the single SNP regression in the cows are detailed for each trait in Additional file

A number of SNPs were significantly associated with more than one trait. We combined all significant associations (i.e. from both sire statistical models and the cow validation dataset) detected for a trait and identified 232, 83, 52 and 3 SNPs which were significantly associated with 2, 3, 4 and 5 traits, respectively (Additional file
Milk yield
Using the single SNP regression approach, 370 SNPs were identified as being significantly associated (q ≤ 0.05) with milk yield at the 5% FDR in the sire population. The majority of these SNPs (311/370) were located in known QTL regions for milk yield
There were two SNPs significantly associated with milk yield using the Bayesian approach in the sires (Additional file
Fat yield
A total of 370 SNPs were significantly associated (q ≤ 0.05) with fat yield using the single SNP regression in the sires (Additional file
Using the Bayesian approach, 12 SNPs across eight chromosomes were significantly associated with fat yield in the population of 914 sires. Several of these SNPs (4/12), located on chromosomes 5, 7, and 14, were assigned posterior probabilities of association ≥ 0.8 using all three Bayesian priors and were located within known QTL regions
Protein yield
Using the single SNP regression model, 385 SNPs were significantly associated (q ≤ 0.05) with protein yield in the sires. Most of these SNPs (305/385) were found to lie within known QTL regions for protein yield
There were two SNPs significantly associated with protein yield in the sire population using the Bayesian approach. These SNPS, located on chromosomes 11 and 27 were both located in known QTL regions for protein yield
Fat percentage
Using the single SNP regression approach in the sires, a total of 216 SNPs were significantly associated (q ≤ 0.05) with fat percentage with 199 of these located within known QTL regions for fat percentage
A total of 12 SNPs were significantly associated with fat percentage using the Bayesian approach in the sire population. Nine of these SNPs were located in known QTL regions
Protein percentage
Using the single SNP regression in the sires, there were 229 SNPs significantly associated (q ≤ 0.05) with protein percentage of which 204 SNPs were within known QTL regions for protein percentage
There were eight SNPs significantly associated with protein percentage using the Bayesian approach in the sires with five of these SNPs overlapping known QTL regions
Somatic cell score
Only nine SNPs were significantly associated (q ≤ 0.05) with SCS using the single SNP regression in the sires, three of these were located within known QTL regions for SCS. These three SNPs were located on chromosomes 6 and 10
Only a single SNP, rs41590209 located at ~97 Mb on chromosome 4, was significantly associated with SCS using the Bayesian approach and this fell into a known QTL region for SCS
The objective of this study was to identify QTL associated with milk production traits and SCS in Holstein-Friesian cattle from a low-input production system. Both a frequentist and a Bayesian statistical approach were employed to test for association between genotypes and phenotypes. The QTL identified using both the sire and cow populations were spread across all 29 autosomes; the location and frequency of these QTL were in general agreement with those previously reported
A large number (1,529) of significant associations were detected across all traits. The majority of these significant associations were located within known QTL for the trait of interest. This shows that our methodology is effective in detecting associated regions of the genome. Also, our findings will help to further refine QTL regions previously detected with microsatellites
Several significant associations, both within and outside known QTL regions, were detected for SCS. However, associations were considerably less numerous and weaker compared with those for the milk production traits. This may have been due to several inherent problems with the SCS phenotype resulting in reduced power to detect associations. Firstly, the reliability of the SCS proofs, which is an indicator of the amount of information available for an animal, was lower than that of the milk production traits in both the sires and cows. Decreased reliability of SCS means greater uncertainty as to the true breeding value of the animal for that trait. Furthermore, in the sire population, there were 138 fewer animals used to test for associations with SCS which would also decrease the power to detect significant associations. In addition, the lower heritability of SCS when compared to that of the milk production traits may also contribute to the weaker associations identified for SCS (i.e. a greater number of animals may be required for SCS
The Bayesian analysis used provided a number of advantages/alternatives to the standard single SNP regression approach. This Bayesian approach fits all markers in the analysis simultaneously and it was noticeable that this approach detected only 1-2 significantly-associated SNPs where the single SNP regression detected a cluster of numerous significantly-associated SNPs (i.e. on chromosome 14 for fat percentage). Additionally, the ability to allow
Genome-wide association studies are susceptible to detection of false positives due to the large number of statistical approaches being performed. One method to confirm or validate a SNP association/QTL is via replication of the association in a separate population as the probability of detecting the same associated variant in two separate populations is small
A number of SNPs in this analysis were significantly associated with more than one trait suggesting that genes with pleiotropic action may have been detected. Typically, in this study, a SNP affected multiple production traits with no association with SCS. Examples of this are three SNPs which were significantly associated with all five production traits (Additional file
A large number of significant associations were detected in this analysis which either overlapped known QTL regions or were novel associations found outside these QTL regions. Those associations found within known QTL regions can help to further refine large QTL regions potentially leading to the discovery of the underlying causal mechanisms. A number of strongly-associated regions were detected among the 276 novel SNPs found outside known QTL regions. These genomic regions may indeed be unique to a low-input, pasture-based system. These QTL regions can form the basis towards identifying potential candidate genes and genetic variants underlying the traits of interest.
Sire DNA extraction
Thawed frozen semen was washed twice in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4), and cell pellets were harvested via centrifugation and re-suspended in 450 μL of pre-warmed extraction buffer (10 mM Tris, pH 8.0; 10 mM EDTA, pH 8.0; 1% SDS; 100 mM NaCl); 15 μL of 2-mercaptoethanol was added. Samples were incubated at 55°C for 15 minutes followed by the addition of 10 μL of proteinase K (20 mg/mL). Lysis occurred following overnight incubation at 60°C. DNA was then extracted using the Maxwell instrument (Promega Corp., Madison, WI) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Details of the DNA extraction method used in the cow dataset are available in Additional file

Sire genotypic and phenotypic data
In total 54,001 biallelic SNPs for 1,957 Holstein-Friesian AI sires with progeny in Ireland were genotyped in this study; the sires were representative of the germplasm used in Irish dairy herds in past years. All animal procedures were carried out according to the provisions of the Irish Cruelty to Animals Act (licenses issued by the Department of Health and Children). Sires were genotyped using the Illumina BovineSNP50 Genotyping Beadchip (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA). SNP positions were based on BTAU 4.0. The 2,419 SNPs that were on the X chromosome or whose positions on the genome were unknown were eliminated from the dataset. SNPs on the X chromosome were removed due to large-scale discordance between SNP genotypes and animal sex (i.e. numerous SNP on the X chromosome, outside the pseudoautosomal regions, were called as heterozygous in male animals) indicating poor SNP calling. A further 230 SNPs were discarded that did not conform to Mendelian inheritance patterns between sire and son based on analysis of a larger dataset of animals
Daughter yield deviations (DYD) for milk yield, fat yield, protein yield, fat percentage, protein percentage and SCS along with their respective reliabilities were available from national genetic evaluations undertaken in January 2010 by the Irish Cattle Breeding Federation (ICBF). Summary statistics for the phenotypic data is presented in Table
Statistical analyses
A single SNP regression model and a Bayesian method were both used to detect regions of the genome associated with milk production traits and SCS. In both approaches the dependent variable was either the DYD (sires) or YD (cows). SNPs were included in all models as continuous variables. A pedigree file, containing at least the previous four generations of the genotyped animals ancestors, was generated for each of the sire and cow datasets, respectively. The pedigree consisted of 5,479 animals for the sires and 4,476 individuals in the cows. The relatedness within and between the sires and cows was determined by calculating the average additive relationship between animals using the available pedigree information.
Single SNP regression model
The dependent variable (i.e. the respective trait (daughter) yield deviation) was regressed on each SNP individually in a mixed animal model accounting for relationships among animals using the additive genetic relationship matrix in ASReml
Bayesian model
The Bayesian method used was BayesB as described by Meuwissen et al.

Protein %
Fat % = fat percentage; Protein % = protein percentage; SCS = somatic cell score; S.S. in Sires = number of significant SNPs from the single SNP regression model in the sires for a particular trait; Total = total number of SNPs in the analysis; SSR = value of π based on the number of significant SNPs from the single SNP regression model in the sires (i.e. for milk yield, 370/40668 = 0.0091); SSR/2 = half the value of π than that of the SSR prior; SSRx2 = twice the value of π than that of the SSR prior
For the Bayesian analysis three different priors were used for each trait; these priors represent the proportion of SNPs believed to affect the particular trait. The SSR prior for a trait is calculated by dividing the total number of significant SNPs from the single SNP regression analysis in the sires by the total number of SNPs in the analysis (i.e. 40,668). The other two priors, SSR/2 and SSRx2 are simply the half and double the SSR prior respectively
Assignment of SNP to genes
Genotypic data from the sires consisting of 40,668 SNPs typed across 914 individuals were used to estimate haplotype blocks. The 'Solid Spine of LD' method (based on the D prime statistic) in Haploview
Checking for overlap with known QTL regions
All significant associations were examined to determine if they overlapped with known QTL regions using an in-house Perl script; if any significant SNP did not overlap with a known QTL region it was considered novel. The location of known QTL regions for the milk production traits and SCS were sourced from Cattle QTLdb

Scott Sunkimat
Dear Friends,
          On March 19, 2007, we lost one of the founding members of the band due to a tragic work related accident. Scott Sunkimat was a great friend and musician. He will be missed terribly. It would be a great disservice to him if the band were to give up on creating the music he loved. So we will continue. Soon after the accident, Casey and his wife Kathleen added a baby girl to thier family and Casey decided to step down as our drummer. After several months, John and Chris teamed up with drummer Mike Flores and vocalist Keith Reilly. The new band is called The Red Desert. Hear the music by clicking on the link below.
Thanks to all of you for your support.

VERY impressive and more than that, he was entertaining to watch, driving style just incredibly aggresive, never giving up, all due respect to him. Brillaint! Trulli- Incredibly disappointed in him! Sutil was in no way to blame for what happened and he simply shouldn't have started a fight OR have called him a 'crazy guy'.

TENOR scored over a mile at Lingfield last week but has won over today's longer trip before and makes more appeal than Tevez. The latter has yet to win over further than a mile and hasn't raced since September. Life And Times may get involved having made a winning return over a shorter distance here recently but Tiger Reigns has looked in the handicapper's grip since January's success at this track. Wildomar remains out of form and hard to fancy despite tumbling down the weights.
Tenor (IRE) 20-1 (9-3) Made all, joined 5f out, ridden 2 lengths clear entering final furlong, stayed on, won at Lingfield 1m hcp 0-75 (5) pol in Mar beating The Best Doctor (9-4) by 1 1/4l, 6 ran.
Tevez 16-1 (8-10) Held up in rear, ridden 3f out, headway over 1f out, edged right and no impression inside final furlong, 8th of 13, 8l behind Uppercut (9-3) at Kempton 1m app hcp 0-85 (4) pol in Sep.
Life And Times (USA) 2-1fav (9-7) Held up towards rear, pushed along and headway on inner over 1f out, kept on to lead towards finish, won at Wolverhampton 1m 1f hacp 0-70 (5) pol in Mar beating My Single Malt (9-9) by 1l, 7 ran.
Tiger Reigns 9-2 (9-0) Raced keenly, tracked leader, led over 6f out, ridden and headed over 1f out, soon edged left and weakened inside final furlong, 4th of 6, 7l behind Red Shuttle (9-5) at Wolverhampton 1m 1f hcp 0-75 (5) pol in Feb.
Wildomar 25-1 (8-11) Dwelt, held up in rear, took closer order after 4f, pushed along over 5f out, weakened over 3f out, eased well over 1f out, last of 5, well behind Spes Nostra (9-7) at Wolverhampton 1m 4f hcp 0-85 (4) pol in Mar.

This week is National Hospital Week, and IU Health Starke Hospital Director of Finance Rosie Heise says the staff has been celebrating this week with different activities for the 180 employees at the facility.
"It's to promote 'Best People Making a Difference,'" said Heise. "It's just to say thank you to all of our colleagues for the great job that they do. We are going to be celebrating Foundation Day to promote the Starke Health Fund and we're also going to have a picnic lunch, free giveaways to our colleagues and just really celebrate everything they do."
Donations are being collected now from hospital colleagues and community members for the Starke Health Fund. Heise explained the purpose of the fund.

It's for someone needs funds for gas to get to their physician's office visits, they need to go down to IU Health, a parent needs to take their child to Riley Hospital, and medications for patients who cannot afford it. We do a lot of different things just to help the community out and to help people so that they do have the healthcare and we can meet their needs," said Heise.

My Former Life as a Flight Attendant
Vacation Plans
One phone call that changed my life forever came as I was about to graduate from cosmetology school. I had a job lined up at a salon where I worked part-time as a receptionist and was eager to become a hair stylist, when I took a few days off to visit family in Fort Worth.
One of my regular customers at beauty school heard I was heading to Texas and asked if I would call her daughter while I was there. At the time, long distance calls were expensive. Only local calls were free. When she handed me her daughter's business card with the phone number, I tucked it into my pocket and gave it little thought.
Training on Board the Aircraft
The Phone Call
Once I settled in with the family in Texas, I gave the daughter a ring. It turned out, she was an executive in Flight Attendant services. She was happy to hear news about her mother in Florida and we had a nice phone visit during which I mentioned I had always wanted to work as a flight attendant.
She told me that they were currently recruiting for flight attendants, and although she wasn't allowed to interview me, she would ask someone to give me a call, although, she couldn't promise anything.
I thought that would be the end of it until the phone rang at my Mom's house.
The call was from Flight Attendant staffing, asking if I was available for an interview the next day. Of course I said yes. That started a flurry of activity looking for an outfit to wear other than my vacation clothes. It was a memorable day with my Mom in downtown Fort Worth.
The next day, I borrowed the car and headed to the airport. Weaving my way through the confusing twists and turns of the huge facility, I managed to find the building and a good parking spot. As I headed for the door, I could feel my makeup withering in the sweltering summer heat.
Down the Spine of a 747
During the interview, I was questioned on my work history and the reasons I wanted to be a flight attendant. They asked what would make me a better flight attendant than someone else, what does a flight attendant do along with a barrage of other questions designed to evaluate personality and suitability for the job.
Despite my nervousness, I thought the interview went okay.
A few hours after I got back home, the phone rang again with an invitation to a group interview. A panel of pilots, senior flight attendants and training instructors would interview several applicants at the same time. If we made it to the finals, we would have individual interviews following the group session.
There was an advantage to not being chosen first to answer a question. We learned from the reactions of the panel not to say, "I want to be a flight attendant because I love people." They were sick of hearing that. The challenge was coming up with something original to say after others already answered the same question. When the group session finished, I was chosen for an individual interview after which I resumed my vacation.
That's when I got another call.
The Last Call
This call changed all my plans going forward. The friendly voice on the phone said I'd been selected to attend Flight Attendant Training starting in one month. When my vacation was over, I flew back to Florida. Until the offer letter arrived with the date to report for training, I could hardly believe this happened. It was like a dream where I didn't want to wake up.
Flight Training on the Emergency Slide
Miles from Home
Over the next weeks, I finished the remaining hours of beauty school, quit my job at the salon, sold most of my belongings and packed my car for the trip, leaving behind friends and my home state of Florida.
Heading up Florida, I stopped in Pensacola where I took my State Board Exam for my Cosmetology license and stayed in town only the one night. My roommate agreed to come with me that far to serve as my hair model. She flew home after the exam was over while I continued the twelve-hundred mile trip to Dallas alone.
Braniff Fact Sheet
Did you ever fly aboard Braniff International Airways?
Rejections in the Past
When I was twenty-one, I had filled in an application with Eastern Airlines, hopeful for an interview. At that time, most airlines didn't accept married applicants and they sent me a letter of rejection. Things changed and I applied again a couple of years later. This time, they sent a round trip ticket to Miami along with an interview date. It took a few weeks before another rejection letter came in the mail.
At twenty-five, I applied with Northwest Orient Airlines and was scheduled with an interview in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the middle of winter. They explained that only thirty spots were available for flight attendants and they were reviewing eight hundred applicants. We were rushed through the interview process and told they would let us know. A few weeks afterward, another rejection letter arrived.
Flight Attendant Training
During the five-week training course, we lived in The Royal Dunfey's Hotel in Dallas in shared rooms. After breakfast each morning, we were bused to the training facility on Lemon Avenue where we listened to lectures, practiced emergency drills and CPR. We learned the different codes used between the cockpit and crew and trained making announcements.
We jumped out of second story windows onto scorching hot evacuation slides, practiced using fire extinguishers on real fires and fumbled our way through dark airplanes locating safety equipment. We trained to open window hatches and the door of a 747 five stories above the ground.
"Again!" the emergency procedures instructor would yell as we practiced pulling the emergency hatch off the mock up airplane.
"Now toss that hatch on the seat and move those passengers along."
Rookie Flight Crew
Preparing for the Final Exam
We spent hours practicing airline announcements, reading them from our manuals as required by the FAA. We worked in galley mock-ups learning how to use convection ovens and coffee makers. We served seven-course dinners on real dishes and glassware. We trained for a week on bartending skills learning cocktails and how to serve wine and make Cappuccino.
At night we studied our training manuals and memorized configurations for the fleet of Braniff jets. We formed groups and quizzed each other on airport codes and their abbreviations. We practiced and role played for hours, but it was nothing like serving on board a flight with real passengers.
On Board the Aircraft
Flight Schedules
Our travel assignments were based on seniority or the length of time we had with the airline. Each month we bid on different schedules that were available. Some flight attendants had fifteen years or more with the company. The schedules with only five trips to Hawaii during the month usually went to them.
Newbies like us had little seniority and usually won a schedule flying as a reserve. This type of schedule had nine specified days off during the month with the rest of the time serving on twenty-four hour call. The scheduling department could assign us a trip with as little as a one hour notice to fill in for absent employees or those delayed by mechanical difficulties on a previous flight. We had to be ready to fly out at a moment's notice and kept a packed suitcase handy.
Despite the unusual hours, the waiting by the phone, the meal service on back-to-back commuter flights and the rigors of standing hours at a time, the job was a lot of fun. I'll always remember those days as some of the best of my life.

Loved it. And yes, those were the days, my friend -- but they did end. Today you'd be throwing a quick bag of peanuts at the uncomfortable travellers crammed into their far too small economy seats. There is no glamor and elegance left in today's world for most of us.
You can bring peanuts on board an airplane ? Wow, when did that happen ? The last time I flew in a plane, long-haul, was in 1984 to Europe. We had all kinds of yummy food, snacks, beverages and even pillows and blankets. I mean I really enjoyed that first and only long-haul experience. Thank you so much for sharing your experience proving, in there own time, dreams do manifest in our waking lives and we can enjoy the rewards.
sharing the light,

Nice one Peg .... No doubt, a flight attendant's job is a tough one. But it helps you so much in facing all of life, no matter what it throws at you and when ... always with a smile, with consideration and compassion for others, and also with self confidence and courage.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us PegCole17. I had a desire to be an air stewardess in my youthful days, but I am glad I did not have that desire as an adult. Flying is not what it used to be. I am sure you have had some rewarding experiences. Have you ever had any regrets about choosing the career?
Lovely adventure you have here... Peg wow you have one of the greatest job on earth and I think that was a great blessing... Keep Hubbing Peg and Im looking forward reading them...
Peg, this was very intersting to read and photos were fantastic. In the past, becoming a flight attendant or air hostess was a dream job but now opportunities has increased manifold with so many airlines operating and perks (to employees) and facilities (to passengers) has decreased that has made the job less lucrative. But getting such a glamorous job is still something great to feel/experience.
I used to think that being a flight attendant would be a glamorous job. They were called stewardesses back in the day :)
It's interesting how things have changed over the years. I took a flight a few years ago but my last international flight was 1982. Man that makes me feel old. Taking one this month so I will get to see first hand some of the many changes that have taken place. Thankfully, even though it is an international flight, it is only 1 hour. Here's hoping the weather holds.
Hi PegCole17
I know your work must have had lots of un-glamourous moments, but it still must have been so exciting, and what a great experience. It makes you sit and think sometimes about how our lives can be taken down another route because of a chance meeting. What would we have done if we hadn't met whoever. It's a bit like "Sliding Doors". I met Alan in Majorca, and if I hadn't gone there at that particular time, I wouldn't have. Then I'd never have moved to Belfast, and would have stayed in Felixstow,and what ifs and maybes. Makes you think though.
Dear Cole : Thank you for sharing such a memorable time in your life. It took so much courage for you to brave all those wonderful horizons. You were like the baby bird leaving the nest to strengthen your wings in the mighty Heavens. Jets and air ships, they are such formidable wonders. The beauty of modern minds that create the great eagles of the great ships of the sky. A wonderful Hub. God Bless You
Awesome! I am jealous of that chapter of your life - so much fun - thank you for sharing.
I found this hub really informative. I'm glad you have the hair stylist training; sounds as if it saved your professional life. I like to write about scoundrels in business too!
Thank you for sharing the wonderful story, it keeps dreams alive for others like you.
I am a 27year old Kenyan girl and i have always dreamed of being a flight attendant, unfortunately there are not too many opportunities for Africans. I do meet all requirements so i guess am going to keep applying and praying to get a breakthroigh.
Your story just restored my zeal and i will keep on trying no matter how many times am turned down.
Thanks Peg for the read. I love my flying career! I fly mostly international and we cook for the passengers. We still have pillows, blankets, playing cards, and toys for the kiddies.
I keep hearing and reading, "Where's the glamour?" and I can answer that! It's in the romance of getting paid to wake up in another country, have a day or two (if I'm really lucky 3)to play, shop, eat, and meet amazing people before working to another destination to repeat.
Ahhh, the life of a gypsy. It's amazing and it still makes me giddy!
Oh, my! Your training is similar to our as sailors! Very rigid indeed! With all the code memorization, water and fire safety training...I almost back out.
When our joining port is at Texas or any other part of the US, our manning agency usually boarded us at KLM planes... cheap, affordable and with cool flight attendants. I never hear them whine because of long travel and they always give what the passengers have requested.
Hi Peg! I loved reading your story. I am a flight attendant for Delta Air Lines since 1997 and while the role has changed even since then, it is still exciting and fascinating. Sure, the work can be repetitive and some passengers not so nice, but even with a family and a second baby on the way, I make it work because I love it so! Thanks for sharing. God bless!
I used to fly commercial twice a week, but I no longer care to subject myself to being treated worse than a criminal (a cop cannot frisk a criminal without probable cause, but a high school drop-out, TSA agent can frisk anyone without probable cause!)
I will not pay substantial money to be treated like dirt from the time I set foot in the departure terminal until I exit the one at my destination.
I sure miss the good old days when flying was sheer pleasure.
Wow that Salon was a nice size.
I dated Barry Johnson and Randy Routan back in the days and both were pilots for Eastern.
My cousin Lynne was a ( stewardess ) Flight Attendent for Delta for 9 years I know back in those days becoming a Flight Attendant was no easy task.
I remember Lynne had a bit of a weight problem and because of it she had to weigh in before each flight and she actually got grounded for 3 months for being too overweight.
I also remember when she first started flying too. She always had to be made up perfectly just in case she got called.
Your story was a beautiful walk down memory lane. I loved it.
I hope you write more stories about your flying days. I love reading them over and over.
Awesome hub, hence the vote.
Life is really about who you know, I think the biggest changes in my life were because of who I knew and how they influenced my path. I also love the personal photos, nice touch!
Great story. I really never thought about all the hassle involved in becoming a flight attendant. Seems like it would be a cool job though.
Hi there Peg! I was just offered a job as a flight attendant and I happily accepted! I am 25 years old and graduating college in December. I realize that being a flight attendant nowadays is nothing like it used to be, but it has always been a dream of mine since I can remember. I knew I couldn't pass up this opportunity, and if I did, I'd regret it forever. I am definitely a bit scared and a little nervous because my life is about to change...big-time! I start training in January and that's when I'll find out what base I will be assigned to...on reserve, that is! :) I've read that a lot of people quit before making it a whole year. If I can stick it out long enough to gain some seniority, I think it would end up being a great career! Anyways, I just love coming across other people's experiences as a flight attendant. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your story! Thanks for sharing - and by the way, your pictures are great!
Hi Peg! great to came across your blog. :)i have been reading articles to get myself notified the ups and downs of being a flight attendant and i'm prepared for all the downside of this job. There is another thing which is the future advancement.i know i can't return to the field that i have once studied. I'm not as young as 21 anymore as i just accept the offer and go work for a few years if i like it i can set it as my career to move further. but given my age, i need to think of the future after i quite flying after 5 years.
For any airline that i heard, its not easy to get a ground job, first you must be qualified second is whether that department have any jobs for you. i don't mind working as ground staff as i would like to contribute my talent and knowledge in the aviation industry as this is the industry that i interested in :) but do i stand any chance? and what position that are available for the ex- FA?
another question is for 4/5 years experience in being a flight attendant. to move on further to hospitality/ service industry or becoming a PR in any company. Will the experience to recognized, if it is recognized, is to what extant? for eg at the age of 30, one need to work from junior level again up to the managerial level?
Could you please enlighten and share with me more on the future? i know some people will start their own business is another option.but how about the others? where did they end up in?
thanks for spending time reading this and hope you could give some advice and correct me if i'm wrong.:)
my name is stacey, and i want to become a flight attendant. I am currently in college and ofter am finish i wishes to be come a flight attendant at my country's airline. I would like to know, if it is possible as a flight attendant to have a family of your own or become pregnant
hi peg !! wow! that really gave me lots of informations.I've always wanted to be a 'stewardess', im only 14 and been dreaming of flying and exploring the world ..so what does it take to be a flight attendant or also called as stewardess?? :-) hope to see your reply soon ..!!
I love reading about your life experiences that make you the beautiful woman you are today! Wow, what a grueling, yet fun, experience where you showed so much determination and motivation. The age of 27 is not hardly old but I can see, in comparison to the other younger chicks, where you may have felt the need to try even a bit harder... as I see in some of my students today.
It is kinda kooky that your flight attendant outfit looks exactly like my nursing student scrubs (hee-hee), even the color! I was just a 'tad' heavier!! And I would have needed an oxygen mask to get through your training regime... whew! You are amazing. girlfriend!
Voted UP & across the board. Love, Maria
Loved your article - thanks for laying out the processes in becoming a flight attendant. I've been doing my research as I want to be a flight attendant. I have a few concerns though. 1, I have a fear of heights. 2, I pretty much suck at geography. Do you think these will affect my chances of becoming a flight attendant?
Thanks so much, and I wish you all the best!
I have been a Flight Attendant for 5 years and have hung up my wings for new career horizons. This job is a fun experience that I will never regret doing but flying definitely has a life span!
They say evrything happens for a reason and your friend asking you to make that phone call was fate.
I always thought that being an air hostess was a glamour job and travelling to see other parts of the world. I never thought about the rigerous traing that you girls (and boys) had to put in. The fact that at the end of a flight you would be so whacked that sightseeing would be the last thing on your minds. So thank you for the insight Peg.
The flying experience has certainly changed over the years.
A wonderful read of your experiences Peg.
Hello, This inspired me! I have always wanted to be a flight attendant and now being the age of 28 at a corporate job I hate but make great money which was making me stay I have finally started to focus of my dream of being a flight attendant. I feel so old compared to most people that start out in this career. I want to travel international. I know it is based on length in job but do you have an idea on how long it may take before I ca do international once I have gotten the job? Also do you think it would be an issue for a 28 yr old to get the job? I have excellent work history
hi, I tried to be a stewardess but i cant find no school no training, i dont know where to go and where to start.. could please guys give me some advice?
Reminds me of an interview I had with an airline right out of high school. I was green as a toad, had not one iota of experience and answered the question why a stewardess with "I like people". I had the feeling that the interviewer liked me, but I was too young, too inexperienced, too clueless and was advised to wait a couple of years and reapply. I'd moved on by then and never reconsidered it.
I enjoyed your real life myth buster. It is obviously brutally hard work with a set yet unpredictable work schedule where you have to be a jack of all trades. The glamour attached to the title "stewardess" would add to the demands of the profession, as I would imagine maintaining that image while working like a dog is no easy feat. Thank you for sharing your exciting adventures in a beautifully descriptive piece of telling it like it really is.
I voted up for sure.
You are very welcome,Peggy.
I have to hand it to you Peg, you certainly were persistent. There are not many people that would keep going after a job after being rejected. I used to think that being a flight attendant would be a terrific job. You get to travel and the job looked like fun. How wonderful that you were able to liver out your dream. Up and awesome.
As you surely know,persistence is what gets you there,with a little help from that absolutely weird chance meeting with fate.
My daughter was an airline stewardess and I enjoyed traveling the world.It was a great time.Only fly was that I may be in Europe and have to get back on stand-by to my job.
Now if it was now,I'd be free to fly away,being retired,and now single.
Wonderful hub!Thanks for letting us into your world.
Thanks Peg.
You made me smile with your comment.
I don't go down till February this coming year.But I'll think of you.
I will probably go to the Wine Cellar for my birthday on the 2nd if march.
take care!
Brilliant Peg and here's to so many more to come.
I am a former flight attendant.i miss the industry, I am now 42.i have every intention of returning to the wild blue yonder.thank-you for remi nding me of my passion.
Its nice to meet you too.hopefully in the near future we will be able to swap stories about the funny things that occur at 37,000 ft.thank-you for your kind words of encouragement.
How about the 6ft ( im 5'3) passenger who wanted me to help him stow his oversized bag. Thank you peg for reminding me of my adventures.i still find it funny how some people not only check bags,but brains at the aircraft door.i must admit I enjoyed giving a dinner party for 200 people.
Despite all of the inflight follies ,i am saddened by the changes in the industry since I flew in 1993. I pray that the industry rebounds,and becomes stronger .
I too pray that our nation becomes strong again.we were the best and will be again.
Thank-you peg for bringing back those great memories of training,and inflight follies.your words of encouragement helped.god bless you.please keep writing.
I do remember when flying was an exciting event and people saw you off...and waited until the plane left. Today it is a quick way to get from point A to point B..and not always soquick...We drive to California and it takes 7 hours. If we figure the shuttle to Skyharbor airport, waiting, boarding etc...it comes pretty close. And the flight attendants were who we wanted to be..Life has changed. Thanks for a great and enlightening hub.
Hello Peg. The added photos certainly refreshed this hub. Those were the days, 'my friend', we thought..... ok you know the rest.
What ever happened to the 747?
Dear Peg, I visited this page weeks (months?) ago, but I don't see my comment. Did I forget to leave a comment? I'm so sorry. What a wonderful adventure, every girl's dream to be a stewardess. Love the photos. (as always) You have so many stories to tell, keep em coming. Regards, snakeslane
I just got hired with an Airline, at the age of 42! My life dream has been to be an FA, and now I finally get to do it. My mom was one in the 60's and I know it will be so different. But to travel for work....well I just can't wait. I loved your article!
Thanks for sharing the story of your adventure! Its fun to remember the days when flying truly was glamorous, with good meals served on china. Today's airline experiences are so much worse. Great hub.
Hi Peg,
its was really nice to read your life as a flight attendant and see how things used to be. My interest in aviation came about this year after my friends mom got an interview with an airline but unfortunately didn't get hired, I applied shortly after her and got a response from 2 major carriers, I thought it wasn't meant to be after missing one of the interviews after being stuck in traffic and missing the cut off by 5 minutes then totally bombing the other interview, I figured that maybe I should re-due the whole career change, But the silver lining has shown for me again! I was invited to interview with another major carrier in Dallas as well. I know if this job probably wont be like the show 'Pan Am' but hey It'll be an adventure. :)
Happy holidays peg,
Now that we are on final approach to a new year,i will go for round 2 as a hostess of many dinner parties for hundreds of people.even though the main course will consist of beverages.wish me luck.if all goes well,wild blue yonder here I come.
A wonderful life. I`m a flight attendant and I`d like to be in touch with you. Would please send me a email? email@example.com.
I `d like to talk with about Braniff. I`m looking forward to hearing from you. Kindest regards
Hi Peg-what a great story about how your fate changed because of one phone number and customer at a salon. It's obvious you were meant to be a flight attendant. I was very impressed at your drive to keep trying for the job after the rejection letters. It pays off to keep trying. I don't know if I ever mentioned this to you, but my dad was a pilot for Northwest Airlines, which is how he met my mom, a Flight attendant. My whole family continues to be an airline family. My oldest brother is a pilot and my sister is a flight attendant. Sis and I are the only ones that went into a different occupation. You have to love flying and traveling to be in this field. I am too much of a home body to be in the business and I get nervous flying. Great story my friend. I hit many buttons and will share.
Great hub, thats such an exciting story.... One thing that I would love about the job is the fact that you get to travel around so much.
This is outstanding work and gives us insight into those charming people who are almost always so accomodating and gracious on flights.
It is really an engrossing account of the preparation and training. Were there any especially memorable or hazardous flights that might be the subject of a follow up?
Very interesting, Peg. It brought me back to memories of my flight school days in the Air Force and the reminder that the chosen road in life makes a big difference in who we become as we progress in life. Our life experiences shape us in so, so, many ways. Thanks much for sharing. ~WB
Public dealing is always a difficult but interesting job to do, you learn a lot, and you never know how time flies off, very interesting hub, God bless, Peg.
Great hub, Peg! Thanks for sharing a special part of your life journey with us. It is wonderful that woman saw qualities in you that you could express so beautifully in your chosen career. I remember flying first class with my family and all the "perks." Lots of changes as you say. Once when flying internationally, the flight was so long I started a pillow fight to break up the boredom. I was going to Israel with a group of fellow clergy for a conference. Two weeks later during our return flight, one of the flight attendants recognized me, smiled and said, "Just a moment." A couple of minutes later she returned with an armload of pillows and told me to get to work :~) The pressures and challenges flight attendants face are great, and I don't think the public at large has a real appreciation of all it takes. I commend you! Thank you for your previous service! L.
Bless your heart! So grateful for our connection, Peg. Looking forward to enjoying and learning from more of your hubs...L.
Hi Peg,
Thanks for sharing your story with us about how you became a flight attendant. Had I not become a registered nurse, I think that would have been a career that I would have enjoyed especially with the travel opportunities on your off time. We have a friend who became a flight attendant and she and her husband have certainly taken advantage of flying to different locations at little cost. Nice! Up and interesting votes.
Awesome article Peggy. I have a question for you. When you were a stewardess, did the no marriage rule apply? If so, did many of the women go through internal conflict about choosing love over their careers? I can imagine it must have been hard for someone who was eager to see the world to suddenly quit if choosing to get hitched. Just curious on your take. Thanks.
I greatly appreciate the look behind the curtain of the airplane industry. A very fascinating and interesting look at your experiences as a flight attendant. Some very cool pictures as well. Voted up and awesome.
Hi Peg,
What a great story, it was a job I wished I could have done one upon a time. They had all sorts of restrictions here in Australia too. Sadly things have changed in the airline industry - even Richard Branson cannot bring back the glamour!. I think that if I was to work for an airline these days it would have to be in safety or HR. But those jobs are very sexy here and hard to come by. Voted up :)
Cheers, Mel
I was hired by Eastern on my 1st try. Wow...a straight guys heaven. Only the most educated and beautiful in those days. Now anything can waddle down the aisle. Bring back standards. Virgin Atlantic is the best flying today. Where is my time machine?
What an exciting journey you had flying the friendly skies! :)
Thanks for bringing this back to us, Sunshine - and thanks for putting the piece together in the first place, Peg -
Braniff Airlines - never had a problem with that outfit, but it was often referred to as "Braniff - the world's largest unscheduled airline." Bright colored aircraft unlike the others of the day... strange (but usually enjoyable) flights. I recall one flight that Braniff called a "businessman's special" on which a good lunch was served. I can see it all again. A planeload of business folks in suits and ties, all being served nice hot lunches of barbecued spare ribs dripping with some really tasty barbecue sauce. :-) On one flight (chicken legs this time) with biscuits. I wanted another biscuit. The flight attendant tossed one over passengers' heads right to me where I sat about five or so rows away. Loved that Braniff.
Sure did beat lots of the trips provided me by "Teeter-Totter Airlines" (Trans-Texas Airlines- or maybe "Airways?") They lowered me out the side of one of their old DC3's one night in the middle of the lonesome runway at San Angelo. Just me. I walked on over to the terminal in the darkness under observation by several rabbits. Had to wake up the guy at the desk. Probably wishing for a biscuit or a BBQ rib, too, but Braniff didn't make the scene that time.
Peg, did you ever toss a biscuit? If not, why not. Passengers don't ever forget neat stuff like that. Golly, that was way back around the late 1960's or so...
Thanks for jogging my pleasant memories...
Gus :-)))
Fantastic opportunity you have had, Peg, and I am sure your memories are precious. Being a Flight Attendant was also one of my dreams, but the opportunity to realize it just never presented itself.
Nothing we do is ever wasted :)
When I have taken flights I have always thought how hard the flight attendants have to work to get everything done in the time they have. Sometimes on European flight it is only a couple of hours to go through the whole routine and then get ready to do the next flight.
An excellent story and useful information for anyone who may dream of a career as an airline attendant. Appreciate that you wrote about some of the less glamorous aspects of the job. Must have been so exciting and interesting to fly to so many different places!
I really enjoyed reading your adventure as a flight attendant. Now that I see what you had to go through, I have an extremely high appreciation for flight attendants. But, why the wool suits? That must have been hot in the summer.
What a nice look back! Some of the best opportunities in life happen just the way you describe them -- happy accidents (chance conversations with strangers, etc.) Gosh, I recall when people used to smoke on airplanes, too!
I really enjoyed this. Being a flight attendant always seemed a glamorous profession, especially a few decades ago. I'm sure it's very grueling and tiring work too. Congrats on getting to live your dream!
In the sixties and seventies, I think every girl dreamed of being an air hostess! Travel was so expensive then, so doing it as a job seemed to be the only way to do it.
Love the article and the old style photo's :) It did once cross my mind to become a flight attendant, but now I don't think its for me. Apart from the continuing urge to travel that is haha. I am now 19 and have been traveling since I was 17, I have defiantly caught the bug !
Thanks for the share pegcole, it was really interesting. When I was in high school most of my female classmates dream is to become a flight attendant. Some of them make it though. It was one of those sought after profession. Great hub!
Enjoyed reading this. I was a Stew in Dallas '65-68. Actually I lived in those apts next door to the hotel where you were in training. I flew for both Central and American. Those were the days! Wonderful memories. Love Field was an exciting place on the day!
That sounds like an exciting career. Did you get to enjoy the different locales?.
Really enjoyed reading about your exciting career. My father was a Capt. for PanAm and naturally, I got to fly quiet a bit. Have had some great friends who flew for TTA, Tex Int'l and Continental. Thanks for sharing some of your career highlights.
I enjoyed reading your story very much!! Sounds like you had an amazing career - with lots of stories to tell. I am glad you shared some of your experiences here.
- Mister Hollywood
This was such a joy to read. Very interesting and these photos are priceless! Voted up and across and of course, sharing! Audrey
Wonderful life story! I really enjoyed reading about your experiences as a flight attendant, especially what it took to get the job. Talk about perseverance. Wow! And, the photos were perfect; it really enhanced my ability to image what life was like - colors, clothing, planes...everything. Voted up!
Thanks, Peg and I appreciate! I added you as well!
- Mister Hollywood
I've been on enough flights this year to be a flight attendant - just by watching! Great hub! - Harlan
Wonderful experience! Thanks for sharing!
Yes, sometimes just one phone call can do the trick!
Glad you found yours!
They didn't accept "married applicants"- wow, what a sign of the times!
What a great read. It so reminded me of my daughter and her journey to become a flight attendant for united airlines . Her last flight was after 911 when they had to let a lot of stuwardesses go unless they were prepared to fly back to back as i understood at the time. She was pregnant so that was her reasons for quitting. I loved the photos.
Wow, this was an amazing read. I am glad I found your story of being a flight attendant and the experiences you went through. I am about to be 27 in March. I finished both undergrad and grad schools in the USA and worked in a corporate world for couple of years. Recently I received an offer from a major International Airline to work as a flight steward. I accepted the contract. Now I have 3 weeks to decide whether to quit the job I recently got with one software company or to go for something completely different and new. Life is about living isn't it? I like to travel and I think this is my perfect chance to do so. It would be a chance to see something new, meet new people, but also go through some tough customer experience on this job :) I know it is not an easy job, but I am ready for it. Any job has tough moments, just like this one. The only thing I worry about is if it is smart for me to try this job at the age of 27? I mean I am not planning to make it my career but just to travel the World and do something I always wanted to do, see different places and who knows what else this job can bring. I am thinking it wouldn't hurt me that much to give it a shot? I would appreciate if you can give me your advise and what you think? I know I will make a decision in the end, but I think you can give me an honest advise and answer. Thank you so much!
Wow, thank you for your quick response :) I had a nice chat with my older brother about this opportunity and I found some answers I have been looking for :) I will let you know in couple of week what i decide.
Thank you for your advise and yes I too think it is interesting I am the same age when you got your offer :)
I bookmarked your page and will definitely let you know when I decide.
Thank you again.
This was such a great read, Peg! I think almost every teen I knew dreamed of being a flight attendant at one time or another. I know I did. Maybe it was a lot harder work and less glamorous than we thought, but what a great experience it must have been for you at that time of your life. Thanks for sharing your story.!
I came back for another visit. These photos alone are worth a hub award. I love reading your story again. Fantastic job dear Peg! Up +++ and sharing.
Great hub! Glad you were persistent in following your dream! Thanks for sharing!
What a great hub to show the process in becoming an airline hostess. You showed endurance in never giving up your dream. I loved the photos and the training. which sounds like basic training in the service. It is a difficult field to enter, as I know others who never made it. Nice to meet you. Great hub. Pinning Blessings Audrey
I worked as a flight attendant too. I hated it though and quit my permanent contract in the middle of recession (yes, I am crazy) to take a degree in Nutrition. I don't regret it one bit although I'm broke.
I guess those were different times when being a flight attendant was still fun and kind of glamorous... Nowadays they just don't care about crew or passengers, they just care about the money...
I might write my own hub about it someday so people can see how different things are now...
Lovely hub, thumbs up!
I always thought being a fight attendant was kind of a glamorous career to get into, but only for others. Not that I would have ever made it off the ground, being such a land lover. One flight under my belt from was when I was a little girl, and that was enough for me.
This is really some very excellent writing.
I loved reading your story. It made me think back on the time when I applied to be a flight attendant. All was a go until I got on a scale ... I didn't weigh enough. That was then :) What a terrific article. I'm so glad your dream came true.
Thank you for the insightful hub. You have such great storytelling skills and the pictures are fantastic too.
Brought back some great memories--I flew for TWA back in the 60's and it certainly was a different world back then. We treated our passengers as "guests" and I loved my job! Nicely done : )
Reading this took me back to my youth and the romantic way air travel was portrayed back then. Glad you were able to live some of those adventures in person (even in wool!).
Loved the photos of your career.
This was so interesting; sorry I missed it for so long. I know how exciting it must have been or can imagine! Thanks so much for sharing that. I will share it too.
Very wonderful read...Thanks for sharing your wonderful experience here...i love to travel a lot and so on flights i do see the flight attendants and often end up wondering how their life is actually. Its nice to see your dreams to come true its precious actually. God bless...votes up and shared as well.
Nice trip to the way back! I have a friend who, like you, always dreamed of being a "stewardess" (aka flight attendant). So she made that her 2nd career. Still doing it! I don't know how you ladies do/did it. But I understand the appeal of it. Voted up and interesting!
What an incredible chapter of your life! You must have had so many amazing experiences :) I've often wondered what it would be like as a flight attendant - so thank you for sharing! :)
For some folks getting paid to travel is their dream job!
Hi there,
My name's Genna and I work for Medavia, a media company based in Bristol, UK. I am looking to write an article that is kind of a behind-the-scenes look at the life of a flight attendant- I was wondering whether you might be willing to share your story with us? We do supply a fee for stories we publish so there is the potential for you to make a bit of money whilst sharing your experiences of this line of work. I'd so love to hear your story!
Did you know a First Officer that flew for Northwest Orient during the 1979 and 1980's name? The reason I'm asking this question, I house sit and clean his house when I was college in Seattle. I believe his last name was German. He spoke fluent German and help me pass my German class with a B. Which was a good grade for me.
Sorry. His first name is Vernon and I can't recall his last name, it's been 35 years. Thanks for your help, if possible.
great experience
Hi Peg - I came back to read this again. It's written so well - one of those hubs you just can't get enough of. Sharing once more.
Peg, Loved reading of your adventure and eventual career as an airline stewardess. It was actually a dream I had too but never realized - so I lived it vicariously through you. ;)
Thanks for sharing - good writing here. :)
I've also always wanted to be a flight attendant. I didn't realize it was such a challenge to get a regular schedule. What an exciting and abrupt change in career path! I enjoyed reading your experience.

… they added auto translation of app descriptions, and lately I've seen this again in the Chrome web store. The more interesting thing I have noticed is that this translation seems almost human, at least much closer to human than what I am used to seeing on Google Translate online. But what does this all mean? Let's start with an overview and move…

According to Nomura, headline WPI inflation in India would moderate further over the next four months before rising again as favourable base effects wear off
India's inflation based on wholesale price index (WPI) eased in August to a better-than-expected 3.7% from 5.2% in July on favourable base effects and lower global crude oil prices. While the headline WPI inflation is expected to moderate further over the next four months, it would rise thereafter closer to the underlying trend in first quarter of 2015 as favourable base effects wear off, says Nomura in a research report.
"From a broader perspective, the underlying trend in WPI inflation is around 5.0-5.5%, with volatility around this trend driven by supply-side shocks and base effects. Overall, we expect headline WPI inflation to average 5.0% y-o-y in FY15 from 5.9% in FY14," the report said.
India's WPI inflation fell sharply to 3.7% in August from 5.2% in July, lower than market expectations and the lowest reading since October 2009. This was largely on favourable base effects and a sharp fall in global crude oil prices.
The base effects, on an abnormal increase in vegetable prices in August 2013 were largely concentrated in the food basket, as food price inflation (primary plus manufactured) fell sharply to 4.6% in August from 7.0% in July despite an increase in prices across categories led by vegetables (6.7% month-on-month) and milk (3.1%). And the impact of lower global crude oil prices was evident in lower fuel price inflation, which eased to 4.5% y-o-y from 7.4% in July.
Meanwhile, core WPI (WPI manufactured ex-food) inflation eased only slightly to 3.5% in August from 3.6% in July, led by a moderation in inflation rates in textiles, rubber and plastic and basic metals sub-categories. Also, June WPI inflation was revised up to 5.7% from 5.4% earlier owing to an upward revision in the food and core components.
From a CPI inflation perspective, the sharp increase in milk prices at the wholesale level could spill over to the retail level and thus put some upside pressure on CPI inflation. Likewise, inflation in oilseed prices continued to climb at the wholesale level. Although price inflation in edible oils at the retail level remains contained for now, we reckon there could be some upside pressure in coming months, Nomura added.
The yields have remained unchanged in the past couple of weeks. You can expect to get yield...

text: Project Description Conceived, designed and constructed over a period of five years, the project was designed to function as a gathering residence for a large family. Having traveled extensively, the Owners architectural theme was to simulate an African Lodge. The Builder held a design competition of four prominent architectural firms to obtain the most significant design for the project. Designed and permitted as an addition to an existing non-conforming coastal beach house, the original structure required multiple permitting efforts while the addition to the building was designed to meet rigorous requirements for buildings seaward of the State Coastal Construction Control Line. However local permitting requirements mandated the buildings be joined as one. Rebuilding the existing structure within the existing footprint allowed for an exemption to the State requirements while the addition/new construction met all of the State and Local requirements. Due to changes in the Owners program, the project was reprogrammed several times and is now currently listed for sale at a regional record listing price ($22M). Extensive planning implemented every aspect of the project from zoned occupancy so individual portions of the residence can be used without bringing the entire complex into complete and full operation when only one or two family members are in residence to state of the art energy conservation systems including geothermal heating, cooling and pool heat. The design and execution of the Project has raised the bar for both architecture and craftsmanship for the west coast of Florida. Utilization of the existing structure provided for great latitude with regard to the rigorous permitting requirements while maintaining a separate guest quarters and living area close to the ground level and beach front. The use of both exotic and indigenous materials has created a one of a kind family gathering resort, aptly named Ohana which is Hawaiian for family.

Phase 1
After researching, we think Wagner`s theory about plate tectonics is true.
Evidence 1
The first fossil found on Antarctica is a plesiosaurus found on Seymour Island in 1982. The first dinosaur fossil found was a Nodosaurid Ankylosaur in 1986 on James Ross Island.
Evidence 2
The dinosaur fossil found on Vega Island in 1986 was an unnamed Hadrosaur . Two reasons the fossil found on Vega Island is of a particular importance because there were plant eaters on Antarctica many years ago and it is cold there so if you put that to conclusion it must have been further north.
Evidence 3
The first dinosaur fossil and the fossil found on Vega Island were in the Cretaceous period. The dino fossil found in the Transantarctic Mt. was the Cryolophosaurus in the early Jurassic period. The other fossils were a Theropod, a Sauropod, a Hypsilophodontid, a Iguanodontid, a Plateosaurid prosauropods, Lystrosaurus and Mosasaurs.
Evidence 4
So few dinosaurs have been found because of the ice covering up.Ernest Shackleton found beds of coal and H. T. Geyler found fossils of leaves and stems. Plant fossils and beds of coal support the idea that Antarctica once was once warmer than today because the the presant antarctica would be to odd gold for plants to grow2 coal wehick is plants compressed over millllon of years under heat and pressure could not be creative withoyut having plants grow in warmth and coal could not form whithout heat compressing it
