They also had to get a waiver for this jump using a base rig from a helicopter (Garry again). One of the seminars at the BPA expo 2014 discussed in detail the process and planning that went into this stunt. https://youtu.be/1AS-dCdYZbo Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation

The Beer Rules (see below) http://clubjumpin.com/skydiving-beer-rules/ allow for a non-drinker or someone not old enough to purchase alcohol to substitute soft drinks, water or pizza for alcohol. It's not actually about the alcohol but participation in the apres jump social activity. Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation

Great - so now you're floating in shark infested waters surrounded by chunks of blown up, bleeding shark meat. I wonder if you can change a cartridge quickly enough to avoid getting bitten in the ensuing feeding frenzy. Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation -

I'm just wondering whether the rules of vicarious responsibility apply in this case and, if so, are the airline likely to find themselves looking at the wrong end of 149 wrongful death suits. Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation

Men don't need vanity sizing to protect our egos
rifleman replied to DrewEckhardt's topic in The Bonfire
Thank god here in the UK we haven't yet succumbed to that nonsense. I bought a pair of jeans a few days ago and the tape measure aound my waist matches the measurement around the jeans and the size label (34"). In general the grading on men`s clothing is 2" per size (divided evenly over the number of seams) at the waist, chest or hips, with 1/4" added to length per size. The grading on women's clothing is slightly more confusing - all patterns are based on a size 8, 5' 5" tall, B Cup with proportional bust, hips and waist. They are then graded up or down from there. Between sizes 4 and 12 clothes are either upgraded or downgraded by 1" per size based on the size 8 and lengthened /shortened by 1/4". Between size 12 - 16 1 1/2" is added per size while maintaining the 1/4" length adjustment. Above size 16 2" per size is added to the garment (length adjustment is still 1/4" per size) Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation -

Nice! Here's another good one Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation -
In the 1970's there was a road safety campaign in the UK aimed at getting drivers to give themselves a little more room to manoeuvre. The campaign was called "Only a fool breaks the two secon rule" and involved starting to say this phrase as the vehicle in front passed an object at the roadside (eg mile marker, bridge etc). If you passed the same object before you finished the phrase (which takes approximately two seconds to say at normal speed) you were too close and should drop back. Video here: http://youtu.be/mf5d2DP4Pp0 I still use this method and it helps a great deal. Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation

At my home DZ anyone who takes the packing course gets given a small book with their method of flat packing student gear laid out step by step. Admittedly, the illustrations are for static line gear but the only difference is the closing of the container. I'll see if I can get a scan of the various pages for you.

One could argue that silicone tits are more aesthetically pleasing. However, that doesnt mean parents should decide if a child is to have them or not. Studies have shown circumcision leads to a worse sex life. More so in the mans perspective, but also in womens perspective. http://sciencenordic.com/male-circumcision-leads-bad-sex-life BTW. The public attorney in Finland did make a criminal case of circumcision a few years back and it went to the supreme court and was made a Precedent. The parents were accused of instigation into maltreatment, when they had a muslim doctor operate their son, even though there was no medical need for this procedure. The parents were however found not guilty in the end. Legally it is a very challenging issue. Personally I wouldnt want to accept any sort of child genital mutilation. Be it a boy or a girl, they should be able to decide themselves once they are old enough. I was circumcised at around the age of 8 because of phimosis and tbh I've never had a problem with my sex life. It's a bad workman who blames his tool. Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation
