    Boycott Cambridge U - they've banned the kilt!

    ??? Thats very strange for them to do that. BRITS, setting standards about clothing style? Anyone thats been to Wainwright in the summer knows what I'm talking about. Has Cambridge also banned brand knockoff, garishly coloured, Adidas tracksuits, and cheap gold jewelry ?

    Medal for Domestic Operation?

    Good point: According to the bill's annex at the bottom, the list doesn't seem complete... Oka, Gustavson Lake or any other aid to civil power ops aren't included. Nor does OP Grizzly rate a medal. Anyone surprised? :)

    What is the best style of applying face Cam?

    Some people make applying cam a big lengthly ritual. I don't worry about the pattern, squirt the black and a (little) green into the palm, grind it into your face and your done. The important thing is to not leave exposed and uncammed skin showing.

    Training Websites

    JediElf: good site. Like your Course O said, leave names out, you'll be fine. Blog on! McGowan: No it's not. Nothing on BMQ is off limits, that I can think of. Or military stuff in general, if its not personal or isn't given a security classification. If discussing military stuff online were...

    Has anyone ever noticed?

    I can understand your post, Lawn-dart. But as has been pointed out so well in the above posts, prior military service by politicians are not any guarantee of good military leadership. We have had veterans serve as cabinet level members of government with mixed results. There was Harkness that...

    Can you feel the love in the air? ;)

    I think that was tongue in cheek- ie he wasn't being serious. You don't think the Americans would notice if their cattle are stumbling and falling? The symptoms of BSE are hard to miss. Here's one from 4 months ago: http://www.canadiandimension.mb.ca/extra/d1104ja.htm 1/3 of Canadians...

    Terrorist threat

    Buzz has a good point...Winnipeg is very vulnerable. A few successful attacks on some power pylons would be a disaster, at this time of year. Hundreds of thousands of people without power in the middle of winter...

    The Bloggers get their man

    And thats the way it should be. Unfortunately many editors and media establishment are biased or at least have a 'bent' of some sort. (ie. CBC, CBS, FOX, National Post, Toronto Star, NY Times,.....) and now people like Eason Jordan, Dan Rather and Jeff Gannon get exposed, for making false...

    The Bloggers get their man

    Thats a scream. Iowahawk is one of my favorite blogs. We are living in a real media revolution. Common people can now broadcast throughout the world, and miscreants will get away with less and less. It's awesome the way some common guy can sit in his pajamas and scoop the mainstream media elite.

    Lack of government and humanitarian law in Africa

    Okay, maybe the statement "all Africa" is too general. there are some bright spots... I am not against financial aid but I would limit any help to African nations that have a history of rule of law and transparent democracy, such as Botswana. Otherwise any aid would be swallowed by the notorious...
