I don't see why not. Getting promoted to Captain sure embiggens ones paycheck.

He means SIM unlock: Phones sold by a carrier tend to be "locked" to that carrier - putting in a SIM card from another carrier won't work. You need to get it unlocked so that you can use other carriers. SIM unlocking tends to cost about $20. iPhone OS 3.1.3 kills SIM unlocks. I hope you can...

If it's the old iPhone 2G, you're stuck with either Rogers or Fido. If it's a 3G or 3GS, you can use Rogers, Fido, Bell, or Telus. Rogers and Fido are OK in terms of coverage, but I've heard nightmares about getting customer service out of them. They have a 2G network to fall-back on. Bell...

I second downloading Thunderbird. It's been my primary mail client for the past couple years.

Nah, we just got a contractor to exterminate all the gremlins that were hiding in the hangars.  :P

When it comes to Bacon, fresh is best. With this technique, you can suppress the enemy, and your hunger!

Right off the tag: NYLON/COTTON I'm not sure of the ratio though. Definitely not fireproof.

Possible AC Op postings out east: CFB Shearwater, NS CFB Greenwood, NS CFB Goose Bay, NFLD CFB Gander, NFLD CFB Bagotville, QC Some of these may not be possible for first postings.

I know the St-Jean CANEX sells them, along with replacement parts, so they're likely bought by candidates wanting something decently durable without breaking the bank. I bought mine a year before I joined, but I can remember seeing the tell-tale Expedition-shape on the wrists of numerous candidates.

Timex expedition, $50. Got mine in 2005, and it's still ticking after a decent amount of abuse. Nothing too fancy about it, but I can always depend on it to show me the time.

Like any other trade, MSE Ops have a job to do. I sure as heck don't know anything about how to drive a highway cruiser bus or an MLVW, but getting a ride sure beats walking. If you're able to do your job and not screw people over, you'll be fine. You can never be over dressed for an important...

Depends on your entry plan: DEO: Commissioned upon entry RESO: Commissioned upon completion of CAP

Gotta admit, that's a good chunk of change, and even with her PhD she stands little chance of making that kind of hourly rate again.

Tags are formatted as follows (using false data):   A12 345 678 WA BISHOP NRE  O/RH/NEG CDN FORCES CDN (For clarity, SN is center-aligned, Blood-type is right aligned. All others are left-aligned) I don't think SN's are based off SIN's anymore. I don't see any correlation between my SN and SIN.

That's what the "Espresso" setting is for. All the caffeine, half the liquid.

I'll confirm that AEC (and maybe AC OP) requires very high CFAT scores. Might I recommend going over this link: http://www.forces.ca/interactive/controller/splash.html It should cover what you need to know about AEC/AC OP differences.

I just so happened to be in Toronto that day. I got to see the Blue Angels from a rooftop on The Esplanade. Very nice performance by them, though it's shame I didn't get any good pics.

A little digging reveals the CF does not hire Psychologists*, but does hire Psychiatrists as Medical Officers. Depending on where she stands in her studies, she may be eligible for subsidy. Another option is Social Work Officer, which requires an MSW. It's not quite the same work as a...

Not in the Oromocto area, but Penny's of Thunder Bay still makes berets with leather: http://www.pennys.ca/hats.php

You're not alone: I had actually read an article on honour killings about a week ago, and I too thought this could have been an honour killing.
