Battery life is key. I would stay away from anything that is not rechargeable.  Li-ion is a good way to go.  Size is also a factor. I have a cannon powershot s400 dig elph,(a very old model now).  I've used it in the field, in extreme heat and cold, and I can't tell you how many times I've...

Part 1: If you become a Med Tech you should be reimbursed, (trade spec. education ). Part 2: Medics are no longer attached, (at least not how they used to be).  You would be a member of 23 FD AMB, (out of Hamilton with a Det in London).  As far as Res FD AMBs go, its the best, (no bias there...

I do not support the Iraq war.  I’m also very much against these sorts of peacemaking civilian organizations running into war zones.  They knew the risk walking in; we’ve seen and heard of many beheadings and murders.  I think it's BS that other people, (soldiers), have to get evolved with...

I hated that maze.....but I did send it to all my buddies. 

I understand that these guys went over there to help. Did they show up armed with only good intentions?  In such a volatile environment that wasn’t the greatest move.  Apparently one of them, (American?) is missing form the most current video.  I hope they pull through all right…those mad men...

Sikhism is correct, Sikhism is the faith, a person who follows that faith is called a Sikh, (pronounced Sh-ick)

Multani v. Commission scolaire Marguerite-Bourgeoys http://www.lexum.umontreal.ca/csc-scc/en/rec/html/2006scc006.wpd.html paragraph 129 which deals with the principle of 'reasonable accomodation' and which explains how the law tries to balance an individual's constitutional freedom with the...

For Sikhs taking Amrit is a very serious occasion.  We don’t get a piece of paper, we are initiated into the Khalsa.   I am not whining, (I am however perplexed by some people’s ignorance).  I have never stated that my faith is better than yours. My faith is just that, mine.  There are many...

This post infuriates me.  To me your attitude bleeds ignorance.  My Canada does not ask people to check their faith at the door.  The kirpan is different than a lot of western religious symbols.  The Kirpan is part of the Sikh uniform.  You wear it when you become Amritdhari.  It would be akin...

Stress can increase both BP and HR.

The Kirpan is allowed in all work places, (the two exceptions are airplanes, and some court rooms).  Universities have no problem, (even in the states), the army includes them in the dress regs, many Canadian Police officers wear them.  What false reality are we preparing these kids for?  In...

They do have calendars made like that, and at least some of the kids have them.  I do admit schools do shy away from elaborate religious discussion, (rightly so).  The discussions they do have are often are framed with cultural awareness in mind.

I’m not interesting in flaming anyone just some quick points for Frederik G. a) I have worked in three schools in Peel for the last 5 years; the last two having 65-75 teachers.  We’ve always had a Christmas tree up in December.  Its put up and decorated by students and kept in the front...

Before 9/11 they would ask some people and not others.  My grandparents were never asked.  I used to just check mine in my luggage.  Nowadays most Sikhs will put theirs in their luggage. Some Sikhs refuse to do that. Once in a while people set up flight chartered by Amritdhari Sikhs in order to...

I can only reach the third level. http://www.winterrowd.com/maze.swf

I love the idea of chain gangs and forced labour….a good way to give back to society. DSB

Some really good points, does anyone know what country this was aired in?  Some of those truths will be hard for people to hear. However, I think there is some bias there.  She seems to attack the whole Muslim world.  All of Islam is not backward and war mongering. DSB

There are still there Slim.  I think they may refer to Christmas holidays as Winter break.  Easter is still Easter.  The Board is really trying hard to talk about everything.  It has to do with making all students feel valued and appreciated.  Last time I checked there are a lot, (majority)...

A lot of boards have size restrictions which have been in place for years.  I think this is in-line with the SCC ruling.

A tangent A Dumbass…one who was universally recognised. In Peel Religion has not been taken out of schools.  It is not taboo; it is not the boogie man.  Christianity has NOT been taken out.  It is there in the curriculum,(our history, our language, our charter, federation), and in the...
