Career Area of the Week:
How about an ASTRONOMER? ASTRONOMERS use the principles of physics and mathematics to learn about the universe including the sun, moon, planets, stars and galaxies. Almost all do research. Others analyze data from observatories and satellites and write scientific papers or reports on their findings. A doctoral degree is the usual educational requirement for ASTRONOMERS because most jobs are in basic research and development. $110, 000 average per year ($53.00 per hour)

Braindrop for the day:
The Union Flag, also known as the Union Jack, is the flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The design dates to 1606 when a new flag was needed to represent the union of England and Scotland. The Union Jack integrates England's St. George's Cross with Scotland's St. Andrew's Cross.
