Trap

Worth mentioning I think that quite a few food chains have served Halal only without notifying the average guest using signage or any other notice in a shady attempt to limit the potential for objections.  I will be interested to see how prominently said menu changes are advertised at Subway. 

As a new applicant to the CF, and as a fairly intelligent individual that still managed to generate some debt (that I have now just about paid off) - I read this thread [as well as the 'Entering the CF and your money' thread] with great interest.  For what it's worth, thanks for opening this...

I sent an email on Friday to the link asking for an update on my file, as I was told 'we don't provide updates anymore, we'll call you if we need anything from you' from my local recruiting centre [as an aside, I respect the fact they are busy and probably resent the consistent pestering from...

Or my favourite from work :  'I'm living the dream... ***mutter quietly*** and waking up screaming.' ;)

My pleasure. Always happy to share knowledge.  If it is worth anything, two things that helped : 1) since I could barely do one diamond when I started, I did some (10) from the knee  (often referred to as girly way but I'm sure there are less offensive terms for it out there that aren't as...

This works for me also.  In addition, check the video I posted.  Narrow, medium, and wide grip sets repeated in sequence really spread around the muscle growth instead of solely focusing on one motion.  I knew a guy who applied and could do 25 push-ups, but because the CF wanted him to do them...

I seem to recall a set of instructions outlining the need for those writing the CFAT to 'wear something comfortable as you will be sitting for extended periods of time' so go with that.  It was pretty relaxed when I went.  One applicant had a tie on and it was overkill but better than the...

Carrying this thread in a slightly different direction (if that's okay with the original poster) : What are some of the more favourable ways to spend said hypothetical weekends if one is not returning to more familiar territory (Montreal or GTA in my case? I'm sure I can use my imagination...

Someone should be along any second now to give you a proper reply I'm sure, but in the meantime : Here's how to do more push-ups regardless of size shape sex or other factor. http://youtu.be/SqHg-aaUQzI Best advice in general is use the search function, read more, and if you are lucky enough...

Ha :) :nod:

Do I know if the CF (or any former or current members) have spoken with eager game developers... No clue.  I do know JTF-2 was included in the models used to represent world class tier one operators in a game sold last year called : 'Medal of Honor : Warfighter', which despite its painfully...

I bought a MIR weighted vest from Warrior Fitness in Toronto.  http://www.mirweightedvest.com/short-weighted-vest/MiR-55LBs-Adjustable-Weighted-Vest.html Worth every penny despite being a bit more pricey than the competition.  Stays firm and snug to the body unlike some competitors versions...

Lacrosse (I just bought some tickets as a present for someone)

I just shuddered at the idea of the people on the streets of Toronto where I live now acting as the people in the video were - completely indifferent / desensitized to such a scene of  barbaric gore on a city street. 

Amygdala

I'm just an applicant to the trade, so I can only provide a half cocked answer, but my limited understanding is 'EO Tech's go where the troops go.'  Also, whatever the trade, especially in the Army I've heard it repeated 'soldier first, trade second.' See this thread and it's related for more...
