  1. Lisa. I really could not read the reasons why you are atepping out the sport but I agree with what someone said skydiving is not everything I also come to find that out in the reacent year, finding other hobbies will make you a better person, I hope ill see you and maybe make a jump sometime in the future Regards (My USPA renewal is sitting on the table. Haven't decided if I'm going to throw it away or send it back with a letter explaining why I'm not renewing. The big question is - what am I going to spend that $55 a year on instead? ) Plus all the rating fees! (I'm more likely to give it to a newbie than I am to sell it to anyone. Most likely to a broke young female who loves to skydive but can't afford to put together a rig. Kinda like the person I was 20 years ago.) Just shows how truly amazing you are! i'm lucky to have meet you years back. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

  10. Yesterda on Larry King Live. Attached is my post on his blog, is there anyone who thinks Oliver Stone is not on drugs? http://larrykinglive.blogs.cnn.com/2010/06/09/tonight-on-larry-king-live-111/ What a poor journalism work Mr. Oliver Stone has done, if you want to find the truth please ask all the journalist and political leaders that are in jail because of Mr. Chavez persecution. If you want to find out the truth of what is really happening in Venezuela please don't go ask 3 Americans who are disconnected with the reality in Venezuela and or South America. Mr. Stone please go interview serious journalist like Nelson Bocaranda and writers like Mario Vargas Llosa just to mention a couple. Do you want prove of the Venezuelan government involve supporting the FARC ask the Colombian president Uribe a very serious and honorable president. Mr. Stone the movie is a disgrace for all south American countries that specially Venezuela, your misinformation and quite frankly ignorance over a situation can only be labeled as irresponsible to say very least. Mr. Larry King, if you want to know about what is really happening there, ask a Venezuelan citizen, ask a person who has lived and suffer from the persecution of a government that the only thing they cared about is to be permanently in power. History will have the last word, and just hope that the few dollars Mr Stone made will buy him the peace of mind and comfort that the hundred of political persecuted and victims of the social decay and poverty will not have in decades to come. How can you explain 80% of the population is in poverty been Venezuela one of the most riches countries in the world? http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

    Inspiring Story

    Please check Margareth Moth story on CNN she was a skydiver died of cancer at the age of 59. http://www.cnn.com/2010/LIVING/03/21/margaret.moth.obit/index.html Did anyone here knew her? http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
  17. http://photo.net/canon-eos-digital-camera-forum/00VqEu?unified_p=1 just answered my own question. thanks for the help guys. http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
  18. Thank you for simplying it for me! here is another question: whats the difference between the two lenses assuming you're using a full frame camera? both will give you 180 view and a circular fish eye look. is the F/Stop ray that much of a difference between the two one being 3.5-22 and the other 2.8-22 Another question When using a cropped frame camera. will it be safe to say that a 4.5mm lens will be the equivalent of a 10mm (more or less) lens in a full frame camera? http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
  19. I was comparing the specs in these 2 lenses and I dont understand how both claim 180 degrees angle of view one being 8mm the other 4.5mm. The only explanation I can reach is one is wide horizontally and the 4.5 is all round tru wide angle lens. If anyone here can elaborate better it will be great. I did saw a couple examples of the images taking from a full frame camera. the 8mm gives distortion expected from a wide angle and not vignette. The 4.5 alomost the same wide angle view witha 360 vignette around the image. I copy and paste the following: Sigma 88mm-F3.5EX Filter size: drop in gel F/Stop Range: 2.8-22 Minimum Focus Distance: 5.3" Magnification: 1:6 Angle of View: 180 Groups: 9/13 Sigma 8mm-F3.5ex Filter size: Rear Gel F/Stop Range: 3.5-22 Minimum Focus Distance: 5.3" Magnification: 1:6 Angle of View: 180 Groups: 6/11 http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html

  24. Ok. I'm getting a 270 WSM (Winchester short Magnun) 24" barrell. I been collecting data and asking around for a good mustly all purpose rifle and this the WSM was my choice. I need some help understanding the following statement I found about the WSM, I REALLY DONT GET IT The trajectory of a .325 WSM rifle shooting a 180 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip bullet at an honest MV of 2975 fps should look like this: +2.6" at 100 yards, +2.0" at 200 yards, 0 at 245 yards, -4.1" at 300 yards, and -16.8" at 400 yards. The maximum point blank range (+/- 3") of that load is 289 yards. What do they mean with +2.6" at a 100yrds? assuming that it they aim up a target 2.6" then why the bullet does not drop any at 245 yds? Any help understanding how bullet trayectory is appreciated http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
  25. Thanks man I'll let you know as soon as I get the rifle http://web.mac.com/ac057a/iWeb/AC057A/H0M3.html
