What comedy club will Gen Courter be apearing at next?

She's good. I'm glad the board's morale is up like this.

It seems that NHQ will now be providing a report to the NB at each meeting about any regulations that need updating due to changes made by ICL or other regulations and especially with anything wrong with the 6 oldest regs.

Did they postpone the uniform stuff (items 3.XXX)?

[RiverAux]

4e approved -- electronic records suffice even if an old reg says its supposed to be paper.

[RiverAux]

All of the agenda items 5a,b,e,f,h,i referred to the Governance Committee.  Bylaws and public trust committees will be involved.  According to their report, they're looking at a comprehensive reform package.

I got cut out during a great discussion

[Johnny Yuma]

I lost audio during the discussion of membership action over arrests.

As if they think someone's going to abide by this...

[RiverAux]

5c referred to Legal and adverse action committees.

This reminds me of a session of congress.

5d - requiring re-fingerprinting of NEC members. 

What is the point of this ?  We've already confirmed that they are who they are.  Why not just run a new background check?  What is the need for new fingerprints?  We don't send new cards in for CD re-screening.

Amended to apply to all corporate officers and passed.

This reminds me of a session of congress.

They are doing a lot "my learned colleague" and "the dignguished gentlemen".  I don't recall that much of this sort of thing at prior meetings.  Guess they've been watching a lot of C-SPAN lately.

Its also the whole thing about getting a vote to pass then a second, then all in favor of. amendmants. I guess I am used to command desicions. But I have never seen thislevel of CAP before so its new to me. I thought we had commanders that just made command desicions. Didnt realize yyou had call for a vote, get a second then vote. Very interesting.

Interesting factoid: the only place we teach this kind of leadership in CAP is in the cadet program, specifically the Cadet Advisory Council.
