Really bad form, especially for a moderator. You ought to ban yourself. 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

If you get her a machine that is a bit more capable than you might consider for just regular clothes, then she can do repairs for you to jumpsuits, gearbags and lots of other such things.

They wouldn't be that stupid, because they are not faced with that choice. That 'turn of the tables' could be set up in a different way than you propose, and you wouldn't like the set up. Quite right! They are not so gullible as you would like them to be. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

Breakage of rubber band line stows are very rarely the cause of "Line Dump" but the location of the line stows and the balance of the mass are. I have seen many line dumps with no broken bands, twisted into a roll but not broken. The ability of the rubber band to break and the force at which it breaks is based upon the drag capability of the pilot chute. If the pilot chute goes into tow and the bag has begun to drag it, any rubber bands which might be involved in the lock will break, giving it a chance to clear. Another good reason to know what your pilot chute drag capability is. If the balance of line mass/acceleration of that mass is enough to unstow them, then I would also think there is plenty of additional tension on those locking stows. Anyway, the locking stows rubber bands can easily break while the rig is sitting on the ground, as so many people use them when they show damage right up until they break. It is very easy for that damage/tear to get started. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

Bag strip. Because the locking stows on the bag failed in some way. That's what you get when you use locking stows that are able to break too easily. I am a big fan of locking stows that are very resistant to breaking. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

If money is not a problem with you, then go ahead and buy gear, support the industry! Most people are not so eager to part with several thousand at a time.

The link I posted said it costs $2/day plus shipping. That is really cheap. Perhaps they would be better served in terms of customer service to not even charge the $2, but that is insignificant. $2/day might seem more appealing to customers than a large deposit. A person might have to pay as much as the rental costs to their rigger to open the rig and reinstall the thing.

So choosing a Cypres left you unprotected for a while. That's not a good advert for the unit. It beats having units with no inspection program to discover latent failures before they become issues and where the manufacturers are only looking at the small number of units behaving badly enough for their users to notice and send them back. Quite right! Also, the other mfgs say their units are good for a lifetime of 20 years, but their warranty is only 1 year! They don't seem to have much faith in their product. The cypres warranty is for the lifetime of the unit. They claim their start up self test confirms all of the "electronic functions on which it needs to operate." That is not true. A self test cannot confirm the sensor accuracy or precision, and cannot confirm the unit works when subject to vibration or temperature extremes. I wish there were better competition to the cypres, but even with such a clear target to surpass, they put their priorities on the wrong things and failed.

What is a good advert for the unit is that every few years it gets subjected to an exceptionally thorough set of tests of the limits of its performance including the ability to withstand environmental extremes. They do: http://www.cypres-usa.com/dealerinfo_rent_a_cypres_english.pdf People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

Are you sure it is a cypres I? The cypres II was first introduced in May of 2003, so it would seem you have a +/- 6 month window to do the maintenance.

Quite right! It sounds like they did something, but it was really way too little, way too late, way too dependent on the approval of another country to even proceed at all. It seems like barely more than no response at all, but of course it was just the CIA response. So much more could and should have been done, and it should have been done without worrying about the approval of of Libyan officials. A C-130 gunship with a fighter escort would have been a good place to start.

That red/white one in the classifieds looks really clean, and it is a later model Infinity - designed by Kelly, not the older model Infinity designed by Larry Chernis (still a good rig, but...). My experience tells me that a 190 all ZP nine cell would likely be a real tight fit, better to plan on something that packs smaller than most if you're putting a 210 main in it, like something with ZPX fabric, or a hybrid fabric canopy such as a pulse, firebolt, or maybe a 7 cell. It might be worth a call to the mfg to confirm for that specific container, as their newest sizing chart might not accurately reflect their older models.

Obama basically said he didn't pay much attention to Rev. Wright's sermons, so he probably didn't listen to this guy much either. The more influential people in his life are much more troublesome.

Do you have the same dreams as your father? I know I don't. I didn't write a book about doing just that. Our president did. That is an important distinction. Obama's parents seprated when he was 2. His dad moved away and he only saw his dad one more time for a month in 1971. Just how many dreams did his father convey in that time period? He didn't need to talk to him in person in order to understand what the dreams of his father were. Are you saying that Obama misled us into thinking he was able to do that? He wrote a book about it.

Easy to say if you aren't the one low on funds and wanting to jump. I think it sounds like a nice rig that would be worth around 1k or just a bit more. It sounds better than a lot of other rigs I've seen around that price range. Certainly a lot better than my first rig.

Sounds good, but what about the Electoral and popular splitting? I'm open to suggestions. Plenty of time to negotiate, you know, reach across the aisle and work with the other side.

How about this bet, the losing party must begin every SC post they make for the next year (or whatever) with the following: As Romney (Obama) has won the election and therefore has a mandate that the people and congress should acknowledge, we should give the conservative (liberal) position a chance to succeed and I will keep an open mind. I am open to monetary bets (especially from certain people), which could be negotiated by PM, and such PMs could be revealed if the bet wasn't settled after the election.

I just wanted to copy this for posterity. You are so far into tinfoil hat territory. It is hard to take you serious at this point. What do you think were the dreams of our president's father? It isn't too hard to figure out, his writings are available, as are the writings of his other mentor's. He admitted, "To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists." That is just the beginning. Our president put it in his own autobiography, why do you not know his politics when he has told us?

I don't know if it is legal, but I thought there might be some that would like to put some money on the line...not that I have a lot of it to bet, others might? How about it? Some are so confident, will they show that confidence by putting down some money? Perhaps some non-monetary wagers would be another option.

There is plenty of anecdotal evidence that being black was the only thing that really mattered. Blacks were not shy at all at saying that, celebrities and others of note didn't hide it at all.

If all you want to do is preach to your choir, keep quoting the crypto-fascist schlong-lickers slithering under rocks over at Fox"News". If, on the other hand, you seek to persuade, well.... of course, the problem is, you have preemptively marginalized any source other than the FoxNews/Washington Times ilk. Got any sources both you and I might trust? If not, give it up and just admit that Obama gives you tingly legs. Gee, so much for heeding the president's call for civil discourse! Just kidding, I don't expect it really, things get heated, and using terms like "taking aim" at something or other is quite ordinary. However, your little is really a bit severe. Perhaps the very real prospect of Romney winning is too much for you. Best to not pay attention to the news until the middle of next week.
