  2. Disc Golf

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_golf Who has NOT ever thrown a frisbee? Walk somewhere and throw frisbees you can pick up on your way and throw them again - until you hit a target. Simples. After I stopped playing hockey as a teenager, I did little as far as organized sport goes. I tried...
  3. MFT Purchases Property for Vets Healing Centre in Cape Breton

    https://www.invernessoran.ca/top-story/585-retreat-veterans-ptsd I know the story of Dean Evans and the Chimney Corner property, so this is spectacular news on more than one front for me. Here's another one...
  4. The Warning System

    Next to the Staff turnover last year, the largest change we've had is in how we apply and manage warnings. In the old days, it was by manually slapping a huge banner on a user's account, writing it up and then manually removing it when the time came. The new approach is simpler and more...

  6. Hark! What's this here thing for?

    All, Going forward, we wish to limit the amount of text a linked news article post takes up on the forum in individual posts. It has been pointed out that lengthy articles can be onerous and lengthy to read/digest when perhaps only a few lines are relevant. Some users just skip on by, which can...
  7. The Woodworking Thread

    I didn't want to call it "art" or "craft" in the title. I'm in the midst of prepping to build my workshop. I have the space, 1.5 car garage on the new house. Still have to iron out a treaty between the wife and I over some space usage  ;D but should have ample room to get done what I want to...
  8. Calling the Geeks!

    Hiya, So I want to connect an external HD to my wireless system in the house. Unfortunately, the rental Arris modem I have, while it does have a USB connection, comes with this disabled, so I am hooped on that front. But hark, I have my old D Link router just sitting here, a 655 model, and...
  9. GoPro Cameras

    Right, I am in the market for a GoPro and wanted to put it out to the masses to see what feedback I can get on what I think I have learned. I am pretty sure that the 3+ is what I am going to go with. Newer technology, from what I can tell, but not the flashiest of what's available. I am keen...

  13. Two RAF Tornadoes crash in Moray Firth

  15. Sad News for those who have done time in Aldershot....

    Legends is burning :'( To some this might be good news, but I have fond memories of practising patrols 'on our own time' off the back of the range and being picked up by cab near heartbreak hill for a late night recce to Legends. I also have not-so-fond memories of coming face to face with my...
  16. WHY WON'T THE CF HIRE ME????

    The following advice is said in the most gentle tone possible I believe that we are, at least for this decade, in some pretty unprecedented times as far as recruiting for the CF goes. Fewer openings and more applicants makes for big competition. Many closed trades lead to loads of questions...

    I am away working right now and, as such, can't watch the Cup finals let alone news announcements about the Thrashers moving to Winnipeg... But it seems to be pretty much  done deal now unless Bettman and company are coming to the 'Peg to give a gigantic, "Psyche!!!" Just one of many stories...
  20. iPod Help

    I've got an iPod Classic, 160 gig, that I purchased a little over a year ago (thus not being under Apple's warranty) and the bloody thing will not turn on, not even a flash. The other day I retrieved it for the first time in about a month and found it stone dead. I plugged it in and charged it...
