I woke up this morning at around 7:30 primed to start the semester off right -- I have succeeded in fixing my schedule so that it doesn't start until 10:10 on Tuesday and Thursday. My personal exercise regimen had fallen apart last semester, so I'm building it in for the spring. Got up and went to Noyes, which is a 6 minute walk from home for some bike and situps. Then came home and read the NY Times for a while about Obama and Hilary from last night's debate. It sounds like it's getting crazy, and I have the feeling that Obama has more to lose than Hilary -- he has to be careful not to get dragged into a negative campaign now, which will be easier said than done.
Finished up the first Operations assignment and showered and was up at sage by about 10:00 to get a good seat in class. The course introduced us to production concepts like Throughput time, cycle time, capacity, bottleneck resource, economies of scale, and direct labor content. These are concepts that many of us have probably heard, but they were illustrated adeptly by Professor Gaur today.
