When Because You Left starts the time Dr. Marvin Candle set his alarm for was 8:15am, the same number of the Oceanic flight that crashed on the Island. They really slap you in the face with this one.
You may have missed that Candle's record skipped, mirroring the metaphor Faraday later used to describe the time jumps they were experiencing on the Island. Other than possibly foreshadowing the barrage of flaming arrows, the Arrow orientation video helped explain what the station is. It's designed to research defensive strategies against the Hostiles. This is interesting because Horace Goodspeed, who built Jacob's cabin, had an Arrow logo on his DHARMA uniform, and the Arrow was where Mr. Eko found the Bible that contained half of the Swan orientation video.
When Alpert met Locke, he handed him a compass which Locke was supposed to give him the next time they meet. The compass was also one of the objects during the Dalai Lama test, when Alpert asked Locke which item belonged to him. It seems obvious now that the compass was that item.
Faraday was worried about Charlotte's nosebleeds, possibly because he knows what they foreshadow. We also saw many people on the freighter, including Desmond, get nosebleeds when they became disoriented in time. The only way to stop it was for Desmond to contact Penny, his Constant.
