All harness /container systems can be resized. How much the cost will be depends on how much work needs to be done and often who does it. The nicest work if done by the factory, but they will most often want to completely rebuild the harness. A master rigger can be considerably cheaper. At your size you can look a long time to find something perfect, so a re-size could be a good idea for you. You should figure anywhere from $400 to $700 in my experience. (making a harness smaller is often much cheaper)

The humour page is in Bonfire! This page is for heavy meaningful discussion and mud slinging.

Which gets at the heart of why so many cultures and nations have all sorts of restrictive laws and customs about covering up female bodies. Men just can't cope or act appropriately. So they take it out on the women by controlling them. This is the essence of misogyny.

I didn't say that. What I said was that this would never become a way for someone to shut down a DZ operation for more than a very short time. And that if someone like Kimmy used it as method to do so they would be found out in the usual way police figure things out. Namely investigating those with motive and opportunity. Also, despite what the local police claim, there is still no reliable confirmation that a threat really existed at Gatwick.

As far as I know there are laws against possessing or trafficking cannabis. There are no laws against "allowing" cannabis. So the answer would be no, because the DZO would not be breaking any law, Federal or State.

Still no closer to sorting this out. But at least they have humour... https://www.vice.com/en_ca/article/d3m4v7/five-questions-about-the-gatwick-drone-conspiracy-theorists

True. But don't lose sight of the fact that the kids had nothing to do with organizing the protest. To your original point that 60% of Americans want Trump gone bad enough to jump on this too quickly, I can't blame them for that. But the MSM was just as quick to get to the truth as they were to report what turned out to be false. As soon as they found out the facts they reported.

It's amazing what money and the power that goes with it can buy.

Seems about right. Has nothing to do with any real damage done and everything to do with making a political statement.

I have a customer who sent her Vigil into Vigil America in DeLand for PSB-02-2018 and a battery change. They received it Jan 2/2019. As of today, Feb. 21/2019 they are telling her it is in Belgium, they can't give her a return date, and they can't do anything about it because they are very busy with the PSB and 10 year units needing batteries. Can you say poor planning? They had to know that thousands of units were coming up on 10 years. She needs the unit for an event and is quite unhappy. Anyone out there who is waiting till the season gets closer before they send one in better think again. Is anyone else out there experiencing this problem?

And now......taking deplorability to new heights, https://www.npr.org/2019/02/20/696470366/arrested-coast-guard-officer-planned-mass-terrorist-attack-on-a-scale-rarely-see

Really! Held without bond. That's going to become a cause célèbre quickly.

Yea sure. But the real reason there is so much attention to it now is that a white nationalist is a leading speech writer, strategist, and adviser to the POTUS. It is driving all the concern and it is driving people like him to be more open. You should not be surprised about the strong push back. And speaking of white nationalists and why we worry about them, have you seen the news today? https://www.npr.org/2019/02/20/696470366/arrested-coast-guard-officer-planned-mass-terrorist-attack-on-a-scale-rarely-see

It wasn't even a real issue.

There IS a problem with global warming... it stopped in 1998

Just for Marc, I have taken the time to find a link to where real science is reported. http://sites.nationalacademies.org/sites/climate/sites_190724 You're welcome. -

gowlerk replied to rushmc's topic in Speakers Corner
Yes Marc. It must be true because it's published on one of your favourite right wing opinion sites. In the meantime........glaciers are melting, air is warming, sea is rising, and CO2 concentrations are increasing. All those things are facts. The "Western Journal" is opinion. -
It's not that FB replaces Dizzy. It's just that the world has gone mobile and the format isn't a good fit. People have less need to sit in front of a screen now. When they did, DZ was an easy stop to check out. Now they they just check the email and messages on a handheld device they don't bother. The new format will help a little, but still is not all that compelling on mobile. If DZ is going to remain relevant it probably needs to be accessible via an app.

Good point. And we already have such a thread. If we ignored this one it would have a pretty short life.....

That was a provision of a "criminal law reform" effort mounted by the "Harper Government" that for a few years held the power of a majority position in our House of Commons. It was controversial and several of it's provisions have been struck down by the courts or changed by amendments in the current House. It was not a long standing statute.

You can't find information because they are obsolete. There is a reason they are cheap, if you weigh more than about 150 lbs before gearing up, or say about 170 out the door, you should not use a micro Raven 150. They are not designed or rated for more than that. Now that I've warned you...... The charts I have indicate the pack volume for it would range from 325 to 350 cu in. depending on the type of lines it has.

Your numbers are highly skewed by the fact that few people are participating in your poll. It's value as data is nearly zero.

Many riggers find it hard to make the cap sit nicely on Wings compared to other similar designs. It's not impossible, but more difficult. The good news is that the larger the container the easier it is. Since you will be wanting larger canopies it shouldn't be that much of an issue.

I always knew Kushner would need to do something about that building. And that most likely it would be something shady. This is beyond shady and possibly will blossom into the issue that drives a nail into the whole corrupt outfit's coffin.
