How do the allowances in the military work?
I am going to join to serve my country, but I also like the pay, but I was curious.
How do the allowances work exactly, do you receve cash, or like say for Basic Housing Allowance do you get some kind of card or check book you can only use on your rent payment. Now that this is my biggest concern before joining, I just want to know how they work. Thanks for the help folks!
4 AnswersMilitary1 decade agoWhat did you think of District 9?
OK, so I saw this the other day, and I overall I liked it, if I had to rate it I would say 4 out of 5, but what I did think a few times while watching it was, why do we always depict extra terrestrials as animals, like insects? Guess it makes them easier to kill:)
Oh and did anyone else notice that in the trailer there was a scene of an alien being interrogated by someone in a dark room, asking about how their weapons work, when that never even happens in the movie.

5 AnswersMilitary1 decade agoThe Air Force and Medications?
I am currently on medication for a back injury, an opiate which could possibly show up on a drug test. I have heard that if I have not been off medication for 12 months before joining the Air Force that I will not be eligible. Would it be possible to join sooner without them being able to know I have been on the medication, or will they some how be able to find out?
I assume all my information with my doctor is private unless I want to release it, so, say I am perfectly healthy and just don't mention that I have been on medication, should I be able to join no problem?
2 AnswersMilitary1 decade agoPrograms like the Peace Corp for no degree?
I do not yet have my college degree, but I am anxious to do some traveling and working in my life.

3 AnswersCell Phones & Plans1 decade agoRuger 10/22 or Remington 597?
I have always liked the Ruger 10/22 but have never owned one. These days with money being tight I don't really have the ability to go out and blow 250 on one, but I noticed the Remington 597s are very similar, and a little bit cheaper. Would you folks out there suggest I just wait till I can save up for Ruger 10/22 or is the Remington 597 not a bad buy?
1 AnswerOther - Outdoor Recreation1 decade agoHow do I make sure I pass my drug test?
Ok, I have smoked cannabis almost everyday for the past couple years and just recently quit about a little over 2 weeks ago. I don't plan on sparking up again because I am going to have to take a test for a second job I am applying for. My question is, how do I amke sure I am going to pass this test, because I know it can take up to 2 months to get it out of your system. Please don't tell me to drink water and exercise I already know that helps, so I need other remedies that have worked for you or you know will work, thank you so much!

2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoHow do I pitch my ideas without worrying about them being stolen?
I keep having ideas for all kinds of things from advertising presentations, to book or film ideas, and I have always wanted to try and present them to an investment company, but I am worried about them turning me down, but then turning around and using the idea for themselves. I assume I need to become my own business, but I figured I would inquire to the yahoo answers community and see what you guys have to say, thanks again!

3 AnswersRadio1 decade agoCell phone premonitions?
Ok, so i've noticed over the past couple years that every now and then a few seconds before I get a call on my cell phone, I will know it's either going to ring, and/or who is calling. And when this happens it is a very strange feeling like I have the thought, but I dont really remember having any control over the thought, it's just a thought that kind of, forced it's way into my mind so to speak. I am not saying that i'm psychic but I have found it very interesting, and was wondering if maybe this is happening to other people as well.

It seems that over the centuries quite a lot of innocent young ladies were giving birth to the children of the gods! This isnt ment to bash Jesus or Christians, its just ment to inform. I believe in Jesus in a different way than most Christians do. This information is very interesting to me, you can find much much more in a book called The Hiram Key.
