You, uh, do know who lives there; right? Of course the VP lives there. Perhaps it was a bit of humor, since Armitage was the 'leaker' of the information - the leak that wasn't even an illegal act - the information that already was common knowledge among many journalists. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

I wonder if such a misrouted Slink is stronger with the tab tucked away correctly than if the tab is exposed. I realize that the strength is not what it should be, just wondering if a properly placed tab (hidden) helps to minimize the effect of a routing error.

Could you please explain why you believe this. It was my understanding that one of the benefits of slinks was the fact that unlike rapide links slinks have the same integral strength in any direction. The installation instructions say that leaving the tab out "will result in excessive wear of the Slink, potentially leading to a structural failure." So, my memory was wrong about it being an issue of strength, at least when first installed. Anyway, the instructions make it very clear which way is right. http://www.performancedesigns.com/docs/SlinkInstructions_1.pdf I would rather have the tab tucked away so that nothing can snag the tab during deployment. It was very easy to get slinks to take a 'good' set with my wide/normal risers. Perhaps it is not so easy with mini risers. I actually took the time to understand a new-to-me component when I got a new rig, so I made sure the slinks were right before the first few pack jobs. Too many don't bother to learn, so the slinks take a bad set and that is hard to change.

Did the other guy ever acknowledge that he was at fault? If I were in your position, I think I would have made him confess or die.

I also think that term is ridiculous. Do other majority-white countries use the term, as in: african canadian, african norwegian? Also, you should make sure a person is an american before putting that term on them - so that a black guy from sweden is not mislabeled an african american. Also, not all black people are descended from Africa. Of course a topic better left to speaker's corner. Back on topic, the issue has been raised in other threads, a search should bring up recent discussion.

I would expect the slink to be much stronger, I thought that PD's promotional info supports that. One might suspect that the slink had the tab out of place (not hidden in the riser). I've seen so many people with slinks like that, which is definitely not how it is intended. I've called it to the attention of a few people, but they all just ignore it. I would expect a much lower strength with the slink tab out of position. Of course the investigators will be looking for this and it is is easy to confirm.

Something is missing from this story. You don't get sentenced if the jury was hung. Perhaps the jury was hung on just some of the more severe charges and not the lesser ones. Still, lousy journalism.

Of course for now they've been relying on a standard inspect for wear or damage type of check by riggers for the reserve slinks. Their website mentions how one of their criteria for the design was that it have no metal parts. I don't understand what is so bad about designs that use a small metal ring (Aerodyne) instead of the tab. Their slink info ridicules that design, as if it would be stupid - implying the primary objective was to remove all metal from the component, which is just silly.

It is a requirement that a pilot be able to escape the cockpit through that window in case the door to the cabin is blocked, like after a crash. There is either a heavy rope with knots on it to help a person climb down, or what is called an inertia reel, which is a spool of wire with a big handle that you hold onto, the wire spool will let the pilot down at a controlled speed. So, it is definitely big enough for even a somewhat fat pilot to get out, so a slim person with a small rig should be able.

I don't understand how it is treason to talk about a person being a CIA agent when it isn't a secret at all, and they aren't working undercover. I have read about how it has become clear that this is quite true - she did recommend him. It has also been recently reported that Joe Wilson and his wife (Plame, the not-so-secret CIA agent) had an agenda he wanted to support - discrediting Bush. There was no violation of the agents cover, and it turns out that what was said to discredit Wilson's findings is true. So, now that the only charges left are related to perjury which is hard to distinguish from bad memory, how is this different from Ken Starr's much maligned prosecution of Clinton? Where does treason enter this episode? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

The last line is: That is CBS making that claim. I don't believe it. As I said earlier, I don't believe we can just park at any curb, and pull out a grill to start cooking. I don't believe it is legal in that city for a person to walk around the public streets drinking a beer. Perhaps if tailgating is defined as a gathering of friends, with no implied cooking and drinking of alcohol, then it is legal because of our constitutional right for freedom of assembly.

That is a really crappy analogy. . No it isn't!! Yes it is! Man: I'd like to have an argument please. Receptionist: Certainly, sir. Have you been here before...? Man: No, this is my first time. Receptionist: I see. Do you want to have the full argument, or were you thinking of taking a course?

I've previously bashed my head against the wall of trying to explain things you didn't want to understand. I think I'll swallow tacks instead. I've tried to explain things you didn't understand. It is not so important that I'll bash my head or eat tacks. How do you know I didn't want to understand? I think I do understand you, but I have made it clear that I think you're wrong. I directly addressed your complaint, but you have ignored my responses. That would seem to indicate that it is you that doesn't want to understand.

What "spurious NFL laws"? What would they be enforcing that isn't already illegal, or up to the choice of a private property owner? What are we not "getting"?

Quite right, but where did you get the idea that the NFL invented new laws? I would expect that the NFL is paying the local police for extra security/overtime/whatever, so they can choose to pay the extra cost for police to enforce existing laws.

That is a really crappy analogy. I would think that it is already illegal to walk around in public drinking alcohol. Isn't that what "open container" laws are about? On an ordinary day in an ordinary neighborhood (not a game day near a stadium), do you expect to be able to just park anywhere on a street, pull out a big grill, coolers, chairs, and have a party? I would expect the local police to find some law of some kind that is violated and stop the party. The fact that it has been a tradition for so long does not change the fact that I don't expect it to be legal. I would have expected it to be allowed only within the stadium parking lot as a compromise. However, I can understand that it is illegal and that the combination of fires, propane tanks, and thousands of drunks can be dangerous. Boy I bet you are the life of the party when you're around. I like tailgaiting, outdoor parties are great! Desert parties with 20 kegs in a moving van were common when I was growing up. Just because I think it is not legal (the NFL didn't do that) doesn't mean I don't like to party.

Apparently you have never pulled the reserve of a very tightly closed Racer, my "last hope rope" goes from my reserve handel to my foot Stay Safe, Arvel I was referring to how much force it can take to pull the loops through the rig when the PC is deploying, not the pull force of the ripcord.

It looks to me to be a parody. You really think he's serious? Even if he is serious, It is not a phobia, it is hatred - important difference.

The racer reserve PC doesn't have flaps to push out of the way, but it does have to pull the loops out through the thickness of the rig. This is usually a trivial amount of force, but not always.

That is nearly as pertinent as George Bush having a small penis. The original poster asked why people hate her. I think this is the simple, straightforward answer. Whether you think this should be a reason to hate her is a different matter. Her personality has been described in detail by those that were as close to the president as can be. The label "bitch" seems quite appropriate. Of course anyone that rises to the presidency is not going to be just a lovable teddy bear at all times, but people do want to like their president.

I haven't noticed offheading openings from my version of stack packing. First put the A line group on top of the B, then after dressing up the nose, flip the canopy (A and B line group 'stacked' at this point) back over so that the nose is pointed down, into the ground as the canopy is laid out - just like a pro pack. I then 'stack' the C and D lines, split and wrap the tail around. Not so different from a pro pack.
