    Alternatively, try Unfeathered. They're based in the States and may be able to help you in a more timely manner.

    explanation.

    That's the kind of sick, twisted genius we love to see .

    I prefer Fibre Zone helmets. Never heard a bad word said about them. But then, given the owner jumps at my DZ and his wife flies camera for my 4-way team, I'm more than a little biased .

    Him? Hot? I've actually met him. He's actually a short, balding, 45 year old Yank who always smells of stale socks.

    :7:0 5 FS jumps & 2 starcrests (8-10 way qualifying jumps needed at our DZ to gain a C licence). Interesting & physically strenuous work flying a base with a quite a few inexperienced jumpers diving in. Not a bad weekend at all, but marred by an injury to a mate at the end of Sunday.

    Training in Australia is to spiral slowly if you find yourself in cloud while under canopy. If you opened in clear air, this reduces the risk of getting into the airspace of another canopy.

    Oh, Oz . . .

    "The body has now been recovered. It's expected that formal identification will take a number of days, due to the severity of the injuries." edit to say: that's a quote from the updated AAP report.

    There's one reason I'd never buy a Rolex: everyone will just assume it's fake . Oh, and it's also a hell of a lot of jump tickets .

    Ooh, so the lady wants a command line, huh? In the following, 'oc' means 'other computer' and refers to the other computer whose files you wish to see. Start | Run | cmd On the command line: net use x: \\oc-name\c$ oc-admin-password /USER:oc-name\oc-admin-user The c$ share is an administrative share that provides access to the C: drive, and it's on all NT/2K/XP machine by default. Your secretary will see your computer's C: drive as her X: drive. To make this more secure, you can share a specific directory by right-clicking on it in Explorer and selecting Sharing. You will need to give it a shared name, which will make it accessible as \\oc-name\shared-name. You will also have to set access rights. If you need more help, feel free to PM me, though I'm only here for another 90 minutes before the weekend starts!

    Fuck it. For the amount of time I'd spend dicking around with it to get it to work, it's a hell of a lot easier to use up a Pro licence.

    We bought a laptop for work that had XP Home on it. Ick ick ick! One quick format later, it contained a sane OS. Can an XP Home machine even join a domain?

    You're finding it hard to concentrate on studying because you can think of more fun things to do. Sounds like every student and worker bee I've ever heard of .

    Depending on the application, you may find MySQL's built-in support for encrypted columns handy. Otherwise, just use a [var]binary column. BLOBs are only really needed for large amounts of data (hence Binary Large OBject). I'm not sure about MySQL, but Oracle doesn't store BLOBs/CLOBs with the rest of the row, making lookups and searches involving *LOBs very very slow. Edit: For the record, you're not storing something in "256 bit SSL". SSL is not an encryption algorithm. It uses encryption algorithms such as RC4, AES, and Blowfish to establish secure connections between two endpoints. Encryption can be very confusing .

    Corona with lime (no fucking lemon ) is perfect on a hot sunny day. As for whisk[e]y, I like Talisker. It's an Islay whisky and very very peaty. Not to everyone's taste. Other good stuff: Bullet Bourbon. 8 year old Bacardi. Appleton's Special Rum.

    I can vouch for that. Polls that allow the particpants to select themselves are worthless.

    Make a B52, replacing the grand mariner with good absinthe. If you want to be brave, float the absinthe on top, light it, and drink the flaming shooter through a straw. Or, just water, sugar, and a lighter are fine and dandy.

    Not being a USPA member, I don't get copies of Parachutist. Are you referring to the Downsizing Checklist also posted on dz.com?

    Is it really that hard to clean the drains every couple of months?

    Both. As long as I get the exclusive worldwide distribution rights for the wedding night video .

    Just wanted to re-emphasise this. You could fuck your knee permanently if you run through knee pain. As always, chat to your doctor...

    Lainey, my dearest: you're wrong.

    Cheese rocks. Gruyère is a little pungent, but most others commonly available are absolutely great. Anyone who believes otherwise is wrong. .

    You poor bastard. That's a heavy affliction to bear .
