Some updates on the research. http://globalnews.ca/news/961182/doctors-look-into-the-effect-of-blasts-on-brains-of-soldiers/ CALGARY – The long-term impact of roadside bombings on the brains of Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan is the focus of two research projects underway in Western Canada...

Ridiculous. It's working families who are forced to use those food banks now. Welfare rates have been falling since the mid 90's. 3,070,900 recipients in 1995 to 1,679,800 in 2005 for all of Canada. Ontario had 1,344,600 recipients in 1995 and has dropped steadily every year to 455,247 this...

The votes for Rob Ford look like anti-amalgamation protest votes on the map.  For me that is ironic because it was introduced by Mike Harris, the farthest right politician Ontarians have ever elected. I also though it was a very brave long term policy. In the late 90's Detroit's future was...

You mean the money vets need because the NVC cut too much off of veteran's benefits? The NVC that the government and Legion fully supported. So you are mad that soldiers don't want to donate to a group that caused much of the current problem their fund tries to fix. I would rather the...

The letter they posted 15 November shocked the shite out of me. 7 years of selling out  new vets and then this. Maybe the Legion has finally woken up to the fact that most new vets view them with disgust. http://karygiannismp.com/8th/legionconsultation.pdf

Schadenford.

My best friend was a cabbie for awhile when I lived there.  I heard it first from him and later from an ex cop who I worked with. It may be an urban myth. I also was on those streets everyday as I commuted from Cabbage Town to Bay and Bloor. In summers I would run pedicab in the area and would...

It's a scathing expose of the abuse of power that the only public employee in Toronto who can't be fired is the mayor. If one of us did any of a dozen things Ford has done we would be looking for a new job. I like it. This is what you usually have to turn over a rock to find in municipal...

"Ship" is a bit of a stretch for that rusted wreck on the Ayungin Reef. I am surprised the marines on it survived.

Bring snorkeling gear. A typhoon that magnitude will have broken a lot of coral off the bottom. Rare or even highly endangered coral will be washing up dead on the shore. I have a few chunks in my living room. I'd never pull a live piece off and won't even wear sunscreen when swimming in a reef...

The old legislation was the right thing to do as well. It made for many stories in the media, tons of shiny pamphlets delivered directly to my door and sagely advice from VAC representatives about a PS job being a good replacement for a lifetime pension.  Like Helmets to Hardhats it has produced...

Nice. Potable water is always a problem even at the best of times in some parts of the Ph. It doesn't hurt that there is really no better place to party and the locals will be very appreciative. San Miguel tastes like Labatt 50. Do yourself a favour and order Red Horse. Matador is a decent local...

The crop damage is pretty substantial. Even in adjoining provinces. There will be many hungry poor people shortly. http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/524593/yolanda-destroys-p138-6-m-worth-of-crops-report I have family there so I will be looking after relief personally. It's only 80$ per shipping box...

Great point Sig Op. Here is a backyard gun smith in the Philippines. I would love to download car parts as well. The mark up on those burns me. http://www.builderbill-diy-help.com/image-files/roof-screws.jpg

We'll probably send some money in a day or two and some shipping boxes once we know how much of the house is left. I am wondering about stuff to send that will be useful a month or so from now when the box arrives. I know I am sending a big box of these,

Another month down and I am becoming less of a dick. I had no idea the anxiety was so bad. Years of waking up at 3 am with a resting heart rate anywhere between 85 and 100 was also wearing on my psyche. I felt much better immediately but I did not expect the growth hormone to have an...

I am beginning to love Rob Ford. I hated him since he attempted to rezone land beside his house and sell it to himself at a fraction of market value. Most politicians have a network where favours like this are done constantly. ie You get my cousin a job in the land permit office. I vote for a...

I though this story was dead but now yet another video has popped up. http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2013/11/07/mayor_rob_ford_caught_in_video_rant.html Most of Rob Ford's support comes from largely poorer and ethnic ridings. That I did not expect, perhaps that explains his bump in the...

Many 3d printers can print the parts to make a 3d printer so good luck with that. I've already downloaded blueprints of many AR parts to print sometime in the future. This cat is out of the bag. You can download AR parts with the latest Hollywood movie at the Pirate Bay.
