Thanks, it might be fun to try after the season ends. {{I'd actually started visualizing this lately and was wondering if the easier finish would be worth the extra effort thus explaining why I had quite a bit of detailed thought for melanie - our experience is mostly in the point piece, rather than the center, but as OC, I'd have the work and I think I can pull it off. Also, I just 'feel' the build would be cleaner.}} ...

Melanie - jason is right and his team's results show it. If you don't have a specific reason for doing it your way, the 'stock' way is how the other teams are doing it and it's much cleaner. I'm sure it's been tried and I like to know why it's done this way instead (just like cogging the canTblock instead of shear). 1 - you'll have to change the build to the P/T taking grips 2 - remember, it's not spinning the pieces, but trading places with your mirror and taking turns (p/t finish their move before the centers go). Visualize the lanes you start in (a big cross with each teammate on an arm) and make sure that you don't go outside the lane. it's a great thing to move from the cog to the double vert - that means skill and confidence is now high Oh - It's ok to go "too fricken hard" - as long as know when to stop ...

I've been posting out all day - as you know. But I've made friends and had fun conversations - as you know. I really, really need to work but this site is absolutely addictive. Yup - cat. You get used to the looks and after a while the others look funny. It's hypoallergenic (low dander breed). I have allergies and I wanted my daughter to have a pet since I grew up with dogs and cats when I was young. So far, so good. Keep plugging, you'll find a decent home for them. When we had to get rid of the first cat about 3 years ago (only because I'd close up and stop breathing once in a while) we kind of just accidently found a perfect home. It all worked out. ...

3 vs 14 vs 7 (97% confident that DZ.commers think the media is biased to the left rather than the right. also If you add those that think it's just fine to the those that think it leans right vs those that think it leans left, (10 vs 14) it's not statisitically significant with a sample size of 24 (we'd only be right to assume it's considered left leaning 3/4 of the time - don't bet the farm on it, too risky).

no no no skewing happens and we need to understand the cause, but not disregard the data. Just like taking a poll in only one neighborhood. you can't apply it across the board. All I'm saying understand the inputs. No data can be disregarded unless statistically proven as an outlier with exceptional causes (god, this is my job, which I'm trying to post whore away from). Doesn't happen in opinion polls. again, I never said disregard or invalid, I said consider the data. Again, I'm not handpicking the jury. I'm interested in just the domestic point of view since the contention is about the domestic news services (sorry Remster). the international poll may be different or not. that would also be fun to see, but it's a different context. If you are interested in those results, set up your own poll here (neat tool). Mine didn't last long, but the results are there for those that voted. You can run the stats yourself (a t-test for proportions) determine the confidence and power of the decision risks vs sample sizes and draw your own conclusions based on responses rather than just the general rhetoric of the post whoring. In the meantime, stop putting an agenda to my words. As far as demarking responses by state, flying style, country of origin, etc. There are great tools for sorting the effect of these input variables as to whether or not they are significant to a response. I'd only discount an effect if it's not statistically significant to the results. simply speaking - by recording and accounting for various inputs just tests whether they are meaningful, it doesn't discount them. Good tools are binary logistic regression, linear regression, ANOVA, and contingiency table depending on the type of data. Good luck. true, the written work does make tone hard to interpret. I bet you are pretty cool. fun subject, escalate away. I promise to not talk about data tools and only stick to assumptions and inferences from now on. ...

I've been thinking about trying the move with the centers crossing first, also. (We do the double vertical with the p/t making the first vert and the centers making the vert to finish - more standard, it's nice and I don't think the other is that much shorter. Most time when people visualize this, they think hey, just a little hop and then essentially snow/off. Not true. Zirc is a bigger burble.) But we didn't see the advantage. The initial hop would almost be a scramble and now you (point and tail) are moving and catching instead of watching and catching. 1 - Are you and the tail waiting until the first move is 'completely' stopped? (Just for practice, work on taking turns with complete pauses after the center vert to get the rhythm). That should clear up your move and timing. Then you can start to see how close you can put the two moves together. From your posts, you are way more advanced so you've likely already done this part about breaking it down into component moves. 1a - Is your center holding the mid picture until her head is almost twisted off? That's really important. Just like snow/off 2 - If both pieces aren't in sink, then the back can look ok, but it's not stellar unless you both are in. Video would be nice right now but - just like snow/off - super low energy move, make sure the center is being anchors, start your braking before the hop and land on level and momentum finish the close. The best you can hope for is to start the braking sooner (before the crossover) and then use the burble to finish the vert. you can still go flat to keep from dropping past, but maybe keep that catching hand out. (or, let the centers take the catch thus freeing up the point and tail to just fly - you might already do that. I would have not gotten it until writing this response.) I'd try moving the piece grips to the centers first if you haven't already. Then lower the energy of your move and start the brake while in clean air. You still have some room to finish after your hop, so better to go over flat and then finish than try to force the stop directly overhead. z-z only needs that when the center is the finish, not the p/t. I'd definitely like to know how it works once you get it figured out. And why you choose that instead of the other rotation... This might not help, but maybe you can get new ideas. Hope it helps. ...

Give 'em hell. Now you're sounding like a fiscal conservative. Here's the basic idea, let's streamline spending in the DoD and - what the hell, while we are at it, how about Social Security, treasury, DoE, DoI, and so on and so forth. Let's also get unnecessary laws off the books, (Didn't Clinton try to enact gun control laws instead of enforcing existing laws?) When you add a law, you can point to it and say "See, I did something". When you reestablish enforcement of existing law you say "Sorry, we weren't doing our jobs so now we will in the future". Let's hear some examples from the current administration too. And let's delete some social programs and let the local governments handle that too? And let's delete environmental laws enacted without data but only on one example or just arguments and shrill screeching. and so on and so forth ...

why do people who are new to skydiving have less valid opinions? Why does getting a college education invalidate your views? Why does being from California or Florida make your credibility questionable? Your biases are disturbing at the very least. Help, I'm being attacked!! Actually, you'll have to answer your own questions, because I never wrote those statements. Do you frequently feel invalidated? Maybe it's because of your emotional outbursts to perfectly good questions. Really now, all people have valid views, read what I wrote. Did you even read it, or do you just have a victim problem today? The teachers at the universities do have a 'leaning', the students are getting that every day. Read the news. Also, I've been to school and know it first hand, and hear it in the news and from current students at college. I'm saying "be aware", I didn't not say it is invalid, just that any poll will have be weighed toward that demographic. California = a certain demographic. same discussion, be aware Florida, I think that's somewhat different and shouldn't have lumped it into the same group as Cali. Please don't accuse me of bias until we talk it out. Your note is out of line. Typical emotional response to a request for data, "More info must equal some kind of bias! Why can't my position be supported without all these FACTS" I like a lot of your other posts, though. But that's not going to help here. ...

Billvon starts good threads. From the Fair and Balanced thread we are seeing statements about Fox. But, In general, is the news service (let's hold the poll to US news) biased? There's already a good discussion on the other thread, I'd just like to see how it comes out here. Drop a post once in a while to keep near the other thread. Note, a lot of young people and college students in DZ.com - how would that bias the vote? disclosure - I'm fiscally conservative and socially think most of us should mind our own business and keep the government out of it. ...
