    Aaron is right, as the amount of energy needed to accelerate a solid object to the speed of light is infinite. And as an object accelerates, its mass increases, so infinite acceleration means infinite mass, and thus we cannot reach the speed of light. However, according to string theory, in...

    I got a question about my CF interview this week...

    The only way you'll be over dressed is if you wear a tux  8) Dressing in a suit and tie shows you care a great deal. It always looks good. Plus you'll look good :P

    All Things Red Poppy Merged Thread (sales, copyright, usage, bans/restrictions, etc.)

    A thief ran into a Tim's here in halifax the other day and stole the collection box. I think they got about $200. Its a discusting act by people with no remorse.

    Remembrance Day: National holiday?/"Veterans' Day"? (merged)

    You can't force things upon people. The only thing you can do is give the ones who are interested the option. Right now since its not a national holiday, some people who are interested, don't have the option.

    Paul Martin admits some responsibility for underfunding in CF

    It takes alot for a politician to own up to anything, especially something like this. I'm confident the CF will get more funding in the future.. but I hope its not some token investment. The govt needs to make a serious increase in the military's budget to turn this ship around.

    Wannabes and Gonnabes

    I'd like to comment on the original topic. This not only applies to your career in the military, it can apply to any career. Set yourself some goals. Both short term (able to run 4kms with no breaks) and long term (become a sniper/ranger/JTF2 whatever). Focus only on the short term goals, and...

    Another "Joining the CF" story

    You get 2 tries with each hand to do the grip test, they take the highest score with each hand. After you do the grip test, take a look at the grip-o-meter thing yourself to see your score, and say it out loud to the tester if you think they may read the device wrong. Although its just like a...

    Check out this site for some info on the bonuses http://www.recruiting.forces.gc.ca/engraph/airforce/bonuses_e.aspx But I don't know if this is a complete list of trades that offer a sign up bonus. You'll have to talk to your local CFRC as previously advised.

    Fighting & Winning The Global War on Terror (WW IV)

    I agree with Caesar, and would like to add that I think the US will focus more on their economy this mandate. Could they afford another invasion? Iran would be the same shitstorm Iraq is now, if not worse.

    When was the last time artillery was needed?

    I know he hit some nerves, and some of these nerves get hit alot, especially in a public forum. This forum has done alot to reduce dumb posts and mis-information, and has succeeded in it for the most part. But the question was asked in a simple manner, and the grammar looked fine. I just think...

    When was the last time artillery was needed?

    I guess the saying "The only dumb question, is the one left unasked" went right out the window in this thread. God forbid that some guy, who doesn't know anything about what is used in a modern battlefield try to further his education just a little bit, by asking a question.

    Taking Pictures in your Army Career?

    Wouldn't it be a conflict of interest thing? Something written on your contract when you first signed up?
