    End of an era - the Boeing 747 is retiring

    I think the author of that article is a little premature in calling the 747 dead. Lufthansa has 19 747-8I in their fleet, Korean Air will be taking delivery of their 1st of 9 -8Is next month and Volga Dnepnr is in the process of ordering 20 new -8F. It is true they are not selling as well as the...

    Alberta Election (2015)

    You mean like when the City of Edmonton takes 25 million from its paving budget over 5 years because there is no money but builds a 500 million dollar arena? KJK

    Alberta Election (2015)

    There is no doubt that played a role. At my wife's workplace there are several immigrants from socialist countries and several people from ON. They were all pushing the NDP agenda and were thrilled to see them elected. Native Albertans there not so much.

    Alberta Election (2015)

    The problem with this is, the longer the oil companies don't know what will happen the longer their wallets will remain closed. They certainly won't trust what she says in closed door meeting, not when you look at the NDP's record in other province. If oil were to go to $90 or higher they might...

    Alberta Election (2015)

    I don't think Mr. O'Leary's comments are too far off the mark. Look what happened when Stelmach did his royalty reviews. Oil company spending stopped cold. These major projects take many years from concept to completion. Why would you attempt to build one when the taxes and royalties could...

    The end of the Empty Response?

    Something was not working last night. I ran a mission, got the sad panda and then refreshed the game. When it came back up I was locked out with no CR for almost 10 hrs. It is working fine this morning. KJK

    Problems and Bugs

    Mike, I can't do anything. I can't buy equipment either through the QM, the purchase equipment button or the icon for the equipment. I can't get any of the buttons up top to work and I can't run a mission that I already have the equipment for. Basically the only thing it will do is refresh the...

    The end of the Empty Response?

    Mike, I am seeing the same thing as Larry and my CR counter doesn't work. I have to reload the page to see the current CR. I did the forced reload like you suggested. I am using IE8. KJK

    US Economy

    NorthAlbertan is absolutely correct if you reread his statement. Money is not given to Ontario, contracts are given to Ontario companies thereby sending money from Alberta to Ontario. As for taxing oil on a federal level the CPC would never try because that would kill their chances of...

    Enhanced CPP vs Personal Investing

    Here is a CBC article showing SK government liquor store cashiers making roughly twice what a private liquor store cashier would make + benefits + sick days + an indexed pension. It is from 2006 but I doubt things have gotten better for the taxpayer...

    Enhanced CPP vs Personal Investing

    Bruce, I just look to the recent Canada Post strike and their compensation package. No formal education gets a starting wage of $27/hr moving up to $36-37 hr with seniority. I believe they also get 21 sick days/year and 6 personal days with a defined benefits pension if memory serves me...

    500 players? How about 5 Merit Points!

    Mike, I have to say that having 715 ATD is great. I love seeing 650+ intel on nearly every mission. Thanks again, KJK  :salute:
