Region is most commonly a geographical term that is used in various ways among the different branches of geography. In general, a region may be seen as a collection of smaller units (as in "the New England states") or as one part of a larger whole (as in "the New England region of the United States"). Regions can be defined by physical characteristics, human characteristics, and functional characteristics. As a way of describing spatial areas, the concept of regions is important and widely used among the many branches of geography, each of which can describe areas in regional terms. For example, ecoregion is a term used in environmental geography, cultural region in cultural geography, bioregion in biogeography, and so on. The field of geography that studies regions themselves is called regional geography.

In the fields of physical geography, ecology, biogeography, zoogeography, and environmental geography, regions tend to be based on natural features such as ecosystems or biotopes, biomes, drainage basins, mountain ranges, soil types.

What are the requirements to become a Regional Manager of a Wal-Mart?
Q. Believe it or not, my dream job is to be a Regional Manager of a Wal-Mart. Sounds weird, considering that takes a lot of responsibility and Wal-Mart isn't in the the best of positions right now. However, I have this assignment for my class and I have to know what are the steps towards the job of your choice. So I was curious, does anyone know the requirements of being a regional manager of a Wal-Mart. It'd also be nice if you could share your Regional Manager experience with me too.

A. I worked for the company for a few years. Mostly hiring from within, you would need to be an actual store manager for quite a while, then that would put you in a position to oversee the ongoings of several stores in a location - "Regional Management".

Japanese regional airline pilot to US based regional pilot?
Q. I'm about to join a regional airline as a pilot here in Japan, but my ultimate goal is to fly for a carrier based in the US(regional or domestic preferred). Would this be possible as long as I log in the hours? And yes, I have US citizenship.
Asked by David B - Fri Oct 19 22:13:25 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. From what I understand there is a real pilot shortage crisis looming, especially in North America. Students are being picked up by major airlines with hardly 200 hours because they want to reserve them when they finally get their ATP. If you have US Citizenship, I see no reason why it would not be possible. You could even go for a small US based regional airline right now, but perhaps the best would be to log in the time in Japan, get as many type ratings you can get and than go strait to a legacy airline such as AA, Delta, Northwest, Continental or United. How did you end up in Japan anyways? I'd be interested to know...
