    Forces intelligence operative pleads guilty to, jailed on child porn charges

    As someone who works in the field of digital forensics, I can verify most of what Ocamm said. It is possible but difficult to find exculpatory evidence in cases of hijacked computers nowadays. Some of the bot networks are so extensive - and has included gov computers - that it is pretty daunting...

    Improved Combat Uniform

    I've had swarms of ticks crawl up my legs in Panama, army ants and a scorpion - I NEVER remove the sand trap (and even sew up the holes in it) Chimo! Frank

    Army Junior Staff Officer (AJSO) Course

    It depends on your CO/DCO. Mine culminated in a demolitions exercise - why waste those brain cycles in a throw-away plan? might as well use it.

    Logistic Vehicle Modernization Project - Replacing everything from LUVW to SHLVW

    And to ad to Kat's comment... that's how we ended up with the MSVS "Engr" SEV?  - I put Engr in quotes since it is utterly useless other than to carry 9 soldiers comfortably down the highway. (Granted, there were some Engineers involved but they were so out of the loop... or understaffed... ...

    Radio spectrum: a critical natural resource

    He did clarify what that meant and I like the spirit of the message; however, we need more competition and an entrant with big pockets is just what the Canadian market needs - as well as some more smaller ones. Access to freq is important for new parties iot operate. As well is access to the...

    Arrest in Melissa Richmond murder

    Perhaps the silver lining in all of this is that the attention the JPSU receives may prompt for better funding and staffing iot properly take care of the pers in their charge.

    Arrest in Melissa Richmond murder

    You are supporting the argument that the JPSU, the members CoC as they are "posted" there, is not doing their job or their job is not well defined or they are doing it wrong??? Please illustrate your argument better, as I don't get it (maybe I'm a bit thick) and justify why the JPSU is not...

    Armyrick's Land Healing Farm...

    A friend of mine has Red Highland cattle - raised in similar fashion, all organic but not certified as it costs some - and the meat is delicious :-)  (very lean as they have a good insulating layer of hair and roam about). Thucydides, at my Ottawa backyard, I made some 4x4' boxes and the...

    Nicaragua gives Chinese firm contract to build alternative to Panama Canal

    That is one thing but I was inferring about the need for water to operate locks. That area does not get as much rain as Panama and the water required to operate the bigger locks will quickly deplete the lake. That's assuming they are not going with a level crossing - that will multiply the...

    Nicaragua gives Chinese firm contract to build alternative to Panama Canal

    This project so far smells of a lot a vaporware... "the feasibility studies are not complete yet but I'm 100% confident we will complete it on time..." (or something to that effect) does not give me much confidence. What does a company of wireless/telecom installers know about projects of this...

    recoil protection

    my personal preference is to not have anything extra on my shirt or  on my body; same goes for tac vest. That leaves the wpn itself; yes, we probably could use a better butt plate cushioning but on a 5.56 wpn the recoil is negligible.  That would have come in handy with the FN C1 - still not...
