I would have at least 1 child but maybe 2 (2 abortions = poor birth control discipline) if it were not for abortion, I was not in love with the girl even though we were together for 5 years and she was addicted to Cigarettes, alcohol and Cannabis. She did not have a job and was unable to carry her own ass through the week. (disclaimer; I was young, dumb and full of cum!) There are enough under privileged children in this world and we do not need more. If both parents do not wish to raise the child and the child is terminated before too long then in my opinion there is nothing wrong with abortion. That is my opinion anyway and I have been through the process of 2 abortions with the said, previous partner.

Not so silly though, Methane is a real problem. I am told that there was a huge hydro electric dam in Canada that was flooded with all the trees still growing in the catchment area. This sort of practice is not only a waste of resources but a real producer of the ever so harmful methane. I watched a hydro dam in New Zealand (Lake Dunstan/Clyde Dam) and all the trees were chopped down and removed before it was flooded. These guys are onto a real good thing, but as was mentioned in another post they have to understand the repercussions of altering a natural process before taking to it. Having said that, fencing off animals that are designed to climb mountains in a flat paddock and feeding them up on grass that is pumped full of urea etc. is hardly natural either is it?

Once again proving the inadequacy of the metric system!
rhys replied to quade's topic in Speakers Corner
Are you trying to say that there will be no WATER/H2O soon? Water is used for the basis of weights and volume in the metric system. All life depends on water so what better substance to base the calculations on. What is a pound based on? what is a mile comprised of? and don't tell me the unit of feet? oh and feet....isn't that guy dead by now.

How should we deal with pattern collisions?
rhys replied to billvon's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Hi All, This is not rocket science. Any skydiver with their head screwed on correctly would have to support separate landing areas. It seems to me that the cost of implementing the second landing area is what is holding back the progress, Therefor a mandatory second landing area would have to be the safest option. without the second landing area....... No high speed approaches, whitout high speed approaches......less customers and less people willing to work at the said dropzone.......less income. Simple To discuss this issue on an international website and consider it to be a USPA problem is quite arrogant if you ask me Bill. Canopy collisions are a concern worldwide, not just in the US of A.

Hi, I have a gath that I use for fun jumps and Tandems. When I origionalyy got it, it was uncomfortable and noisy. They are indeed intended for use in water sports. What I did was; remove the lining and get an old thick polar fleece, trace the shape of the lining , leave a few centimeters where possible around the shape and cut it out. Purchase a can of 3M super 77 spray adhesive and turn the fleec into a sticker. spray the lining also and when tacky apply the fleeceto teh ling ensuring you keep it tidy as possible. The get some thin foam and add to the padding where necessary to make a snug fit. The result, a more comfortable, quieter, low profile helmet that has SLIGTHLY more protection form the original design. Will it save my life in the event of a high speed impact.....I don't know. Does it offer me protection?.....hell yeah, you should see all the scratches and chunks that have come out of it!!

What is not cool, is someone that thinks they are too good to fuck up and therefore are invincible, you can bet you bottom dollar that someone who doesn't give a fuck about what someone else has to say and is as rude and inconsiderate as the deceased, is more likely to be the type to hook a 270+ aggressively into traffic etc. Consideration for others, means consideration for others. We were all told to leave our ego at the door on our first jump course, later I failed to do so and it bit me in the ass. this was in the 200-500 jump region. Fortunately for me I had the common sense to learn from that mistake and you will find I am a considerate person and skydiver alike. It is inconsiderate people killing others not swoopers. You will find this is not only the case in skydiving. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

No I am not, and it is bizarre how you could interpret what I said as that for one and secondly how such a narrow mined interpretation could stem such a deviation from the subject. I consider both GW Bush senior and Junior to be warmongering murderers along with their corrupt posse. They deserve to feel a fraction of the pain they have inflicted. Before you all go on another tangent about America bashing etc. I do not dislike the USA, I feel sorry/pity the USA for being oppressed by such a corrupt and inconsiderate system I feel the same sadness for many countries in this corrupt and unfair world.

Agreed. division has always been harder than multiplication. but that depends on who's brain we are talking about. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix -

Dunno about Europe except that in Germany it is fun to drive fast. as for New Zealand we have a saying; "6 of one and half a dozen of the other" You still end up with a distance and a price/volume. Why do you ask? "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix -
Yes if the former president proved to be a liability to the country while lining his own pockets and boosting the family business at the expense of the country and the world for that matter. Hell No If the former president proved to be a liability to the country while lining his own pockets and boosting his family business at the expense of the country and the world for that matter then the sibling stands to gain by continuing the mayhem. Therefore it matters a great deal. You are bang on there bro. And if we are 'in fact' talking about whether Hillary Clinton should be voted for or not? then the fact that she let her husband off the hook for having his cock sucked in the oval office and publicly shaming their family. She is hardly and advocate for good morals is she. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

thats a pretty scratched record bro. What do you think, are you trying to say you don't think Hillary should be president and 'beating around the bush' about it? that pun wasn't intended but not too bad eh "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

yep 333.3mm recurring. Once you get down to thirds of thirds of a milimetre then you would have to be pretty sharp with the drop saw to be giving a shit. Now if my stick of 4x2 is 4.5 feet long how many inches are there? No calculator please. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix -
That roll your eyes to the back of your head smiley would come in handy right now. It is not a good idea to employ family members of ex presidents to the head of state because it promotes corruption.

But building a house, measuring something and breaking it evenly to smaller units..................... the Imperial system is old and stupid, what is the point of keeping it?............................It costs too much money to change.

We are talking about the negative effect of a previous "Family Affair" How are we not on topic. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

He invaded Iraq for the same greedy reason that his son did. He and his idiot son have systematically made this planet a much less enjoyable/safe place to be. war mongering fucks like that need a taste of their own medicine (and that medicine is pain and suffering). anyway not to deviate from the subject that is always inevitably deviated from. It is not a good idea to keep the head position in a country in a family. We already worked out that the feudal system doesn't work very well.

Hi, I have a Rawa 'Freely Imogen' and I intend on purchasing a HC7 in a month or two. I used to have have a cumbersome top mount camera. The only problem I can see s that you will not be able to mount a Still camera as well as the HC5/7. Rawa also make other model helmets, but I am assuming you are talking about the 'Freefly Imogen' helmet?

Keeping it in the click simply promotes corruption. Not that the US gives a shit about corruption otherwise that 'idiot son of an asshole' would be behind bars by now. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

That is a shit house attitude and I know you don't think all swoopers think like that. I do have to mention however you get fucknuckle arrogant cu*ts like that in any discipline. The worst are the 10000+ jump drouge whores that don't even own their own rig anymore but continue to tell everyone how to skydive. That fella got what came to him in the end. That is survival of the fittest at its best. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix

probably similar odds to you filling out your profile? When I look at the sky at night i can see thousands of stars. I'd reckon there is a good chance there is life elsewhere! Ih shit i forgot, we are at the centre of the universe and everything was made for us to take advantage of. sorry, I'm wrong.

One liners by intellectuals that assume others know what they are talking about are about as helpful as a bacon sandwich in Mecca during the Ramadan. Explain to us all what you men please. I explained (in layman's terms) what I meant. You and Bill could do us all a favor if you did such. How can anyone say the planet was not created, that is a bold statement requiring as much faith as any religious nut!

I would say that $25 is cheap? I have payed more than US$30 for a Jump. I don't want to see prices go up either but they do. that is life. pass the nuts please. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix
