Yrys, the foods you listed aren't exactly the best foods to eat, most of them being junk food. Following the food guide will naturally limit your intake of the bad fats and limiting processed food, which also contain a whack of salt. It isn't that hard really to avoid too much of it, but yes you...

Me too. And not even a good nanny, who would teach her charges about moderation and healthy eating not just attempt to deny them something, which never works for long with kids, eventually they come across it somewhere else.

Good God what's next?  The government regulating portion sizes, or perhaps spoon feeding people to ensure they eat right. I suppose one can look at it the same as removing a dangerous drug from the market. What is really sad is that one can see the need for such a ban.

Understood, thanks for clearing it up. That being the case I must apologise for thinking you daft for beleiving we should shelter deserters, as that is not the case.  :) Also for the misunderstanding in the first place. Regards, Neko

Yes I saw the sarcasm as noted in my reply to Paracowboy, which seemed to be in response to my confusion on how he could possibly qualify for refugee status, implying that being a "prospective detainee of Leavenworth" fits the criteria for such status. However if MedTech meant something else I...

  A joke huh? Generally those contain humour. Sounded more like sarcasm to me or should I say read like it. Do you have a workable method? ;) Rest assured though my skin is quite thick enough, I wasn't offended but  I did think MedTech a bit daft as I don't see how the possiblity of going to...

Was this comment directed at me? If so why? The man is facing prison time and and a possible dishonourable discharge becuase he was AWOL. He chose to join the military he was not forced into service, he broke the rules and is subject to punishment for doing so. I fail to see how that turns him...

I'm confused as to why he would even apply, exactly how would he have qualified for refugee status anyway?

Disregard. Found what I was looking for.

Thank you for replying, however I had already found this site and have gone through it and have followed some links including the RCA museum website. I've gained alot of knowledge for sure but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for. What exactly would artillery do on a peacekeeping mission...

Does anyone know where I can find out when and where in the past the artillery has been deployed overseas? I have read most of the threads on this board and have googled the topic but cannot seem to find what I am looking for. So if anyone knows of a website or a book (or a thread if I've missed...

So I took my kids to the celebration yesterday in Fredericton, pretty cool as it was all military stuff, the official site being Oromocto this year all the other stuff was there. My son and I quite happily examined all the military equipment for hours.  We had a ride in a LAV, very cool, must be...

So do you get military issue sunglasses in keeping with the LCF?

Now just what do you do to troops who fail to meet the standard?  :o ( I assume there is a standard.) The charge must be interesting ;)

All occupations? And is this an just an army directive or is it required for the navy and air force as well?

Now is that training provided in BMQ or SQ? and is this the end result?   http://www.recruiting.forces.gc.ca/engraph/army/index_e.aspx :D

Ok thanks again for letting me know about this. I shall just take my kids and go to town for the weekend so as not to miss anything. I shall listen carefully for the tanks. Ah, colour co-ordinated vehicles; very cool 8)

Ah cool, thanks for the heads up I shall have to go.  Would this be on Saturday or is it the whole weekend?  Umm the south common, is that 'the green' along the river behind Queen Street?

They were scheduled to do a demnostration and parade today too, but I have missed that, unfortunately last night was my only chance to go to the Highland Games I won't get too see anything else, still it was the event I was most interested in.  As an offshoot, does the military ever do any...

I was at the 25th anniversary of the New Brunswick Highland Games and Scottish Festival last night for the Military Tattoo. It was quite impressive. A drum salute and then the massed pipes and drums, nothing beats the sound of that, its got to be the most stirring music ever.    The military...
