An organization formed at Fairfax High School. The Future Hobos of America (FHA) really doesn't do anything, except form more FHA groups at other schools and sit around doing nothing.

A fun activity where you put on PFDs (layman; "life jacket"), jump in a rubber raft with little PVC paddles and float down the river....no big deal...until you get flipped over, hit on the head with a rock, hit in the teeth with a paddle, flipped out of the raft, pushed out of the raft, or are simply scared out of your mind and go into fight-or-flight mode with those class 5 rapids coming around the bend.
I was having a fun time whitewater rafting until we hit this class 4 sideways, our raft flipped over, I got sucked into the rapid and popped out about 40 feet away (still holding on to my paddle)...After whitewater rafting (which was a real rush) driving on the beltway doesn't seem so bad.

Code Division Multiple Access
A spread spectrum approach for the digital transmission of data/voice over radio frequencies. Sound bits are digitized and the data is split into data packets that are encoded with unique identification tags. All of the data/voice is sent over a spread range of radio frequencies. The cell phone or data device receives all of the data packets but only re-assembles those packets with the correct code and transforms the broken-up bits of data into useful sound and data. This allows more traffic for a finite number of available frequencies than analog or the other digital standards.
