If it was me and my daughter just passed away...which unfortunately could happen soon...( I personally hope the lives another 80 years)..but as the father ...I'd pretty much not have anything else to live for. I'd go over to their house and skullfuck both of those bastards and get some pruning shears and start removing each finger one by one. But that is of course after the death...this is my opinion but you NEVER mess with small children or animals. They are the cornerstore of the earth and are the essence of innocence...well most of them at least.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39672570/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/ FARMINGVILLE, N.Y. — You've heard of Megan's Laws, designed to keep sex offenders from striking again. Now there's a law created in the hope of preventing animal abusers from inflicting more cruelty — or moving on to human victims. Suffolk County, on the eastern half of Long Island, moved to create the nation's first animal abuse registry this week, requiring people convicted of cruelty to animals to register or face jail time and fines. "We know there is a very strong correlation between animal abuse and domestic violence," said Suffolk County legislator Jon Cooper, the bill's sponsor. "Almost every serial killer starts out by torturing animals, so in a strange sense we could end up protecting the lives of people." The online list will be open to the public, so that pet owners or the merely curious can find out whether someone living near them is on it. Some animal abusers have been known to steal their neighbors' pets. Cooper is also pushing legislation that would bar anyone on the registry from buying or adopting a pet from a shelter, pet shop or breeder. The law was prompted by a number of animal abuse cases in recent months, including that of a Selden woman accused of forcing her children to watch her torture and kill kittens and dozens of dogs, then burying the pets in her backyard. Animal welfare activists hope the law, passed unanimously Tuesday in the suburban New York City county of 1.5 million people, will inspire governments nationwide in the same way Megan's Law registries for child molesters have proliferated in the past decade. .A spokesman for county Executive Steve Levy said he intends to sign the legislation. It then requires a 30-day review by state officials before it goes on the books. As Fred Surbito took his Yorkshire terrier, Sasha, in for grooming at a Farmingville pet store this week, he applauded the legislation. "It's very, very important," he said. "If you don't love an animal, you should not have an animal. An animal is part of your family. Like your children, they should never be neglected or harmed. Anybody that does should never own a pet again." ..More than a dozen states have introduced legislation to establish similar registries, but Suffolk County is the first government entity to pass such a law, said Stephan Otto, director of legislative affairs for the Animal Legal Defense Fund. The Suffolk County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals will administer the database, to be funded by a $50 fee paid by convicted abusers. All abusers 18 or older must supply authorities with their address, a head-and-shoulders photograph and any aliases. Convicted abusers will remain on the registry for five years. Those failing to register face up to a year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. After the 2009 arrest of Sharon McDonough, accused of burying kittens and as many as 42 dogs in her yard, neighbors whose pets had disappeared feared the worst. But authorities later concluded that McDonough — who is expected in court this month and could get up to two years in prison if convicted — bought the animals or adopted them through shelters or other traditional outlets. While some abuse is motivated purely by cruelty, Suffolk SPCA Chief Roy Gross said, some recent cases are linked to the poor economy. For instance, an emaciated Doberman mix was recently found near death inside a foreclosed-on home, he said. And sometimes, pet rescuer Cathy Mulnard said, elderly people on fixed incomes must decide between eating, or feeding their pets. "They don't mean to be bad to the animal, but they get overwhelmed and don't know how to ask for help. They may be innocent abusers," said Mulnard, a founder and co-director of Second Chance Rescue, a Suffolk animal shelter that works closely with the SPCA. Mulnard called the legislation "a godsend for the animals." "We take care of our animals and love our animals the way you do your children," she said. "We need to protect every animal that's out there because they don't make the decisions in their life; human beings do."

Thats a good point regarding the lens...I was also going to point out that even the countour hd...when used in 1080 only records at 30 frames per second...which in my noob opinion would be rather choppy when trying to capture something as quick as a jump. Sure you can record in 720 which will dub at 60 frames per second, but then you're stuck with the default lens and trying to capture widescreen images won't work that well. Besides when I have 200 more jumps (well less the 4 I plan on getting on saturday) there will probably be something better on the market at that time.

A lot of drunks say the same thing about DWI. Until they wreck and kill someone, anyway. Something to think about. yes, the fact that regulator hasn't crashed or killed anyone yet is really not the sort of evidence to use to make this point. That's true for many drunks as well. now if this bill were to pass, I think Mythbusters could legally do a segment on this similar to their tests of driving drunk versus with cell phone. Or any else could for that matter. But in our current state, legitimate testing of that sort is precarious for the tester. --------------------------------------------------------- I agree the mythbusters idea is a good idea but the crteria should change...it shouldnt be a race to see how many joints you smoke so that youre so blown out of your mind that you cant see straight...I never drove in that condition...and No I dont smoke anymore. But what I was referring to is that taking a few hits and then upping the ante like they did with the test subjects and testing the whole way along to determine the criteria of using marijuana in smaller amounts and what factor that plays rather than just getting obliterated and then trying...and furthermore not just some virgin thats never smoked in their entire lives...get someone who has experience with it and TEST THEM. Just a thought.

If someone is driving under the influence of alcohol or marijuana (or opiates, or anything likely to affect one's ability to operate a vehicle, for that matter), they should be arrested for it. ------------------------------------------------------------ The thing you need to understand is that drugs affect different people in different ways...for one I used to smoke weed every day for a long time. In fact I drove daily while smoking weed and never caused a wreck or ticket. For me it was like a comfortable paranoia where I was acutely aware of my surroundings and had my head on a swivel. This is not true for everyone, but alcohol for sure affects everyone the same way, and yet people are still getting DWI's as we speak. Something to think about.

---------------------------------------------------------- Or better yet...if you know a machinist...get him to give you tiny metal filings and place them into a can. Once the jackoff goes to bed, sprinkle all the filings all over the metal on his car...when it dews..instant rust...then if you really want to piss him off place a quart of dead shrimp underneath his seats ...if he leaves his doors unlocked.

I'm going to get associated with the way the point was taken rather than the issue at hand. No I don't need to look at my alti to know when to flair. But the important thing (to me at least) was that I checked it to determine my height because I was coming in close proximity to the hanger. Thats the only reason I injected the comment about my altitrack showing I was at 0 feet. I was worried about fiairing too early because I was downwind and didnt want to flair too early and stall it while downwind and land much harder than I did. I hope that will elaborate more on what I was talking about.

so you're saying that most skydivers are alcoholics?

I did something similar a few weeks back at the dz. It was my last jump of the day and I was flying my crosswind and instead of looking at the windsock like a windsock...I looked at it like it was the tetrahedron. Big mistake...as soon as I turned (downwind or course) I started picking up speed big time. I didnt even have time to think about what jump happened because I was getting within 500 feet or so of the hanger...I checked my altitrack and it showed I was at 0 feet. I stabbed that fokker at the last second and slid on my ass. These are the things I learned: 1.) unless you turn downwind down low...you never really know how fast you are going downwind until you do it low 2.) I will never look at the windsock like that again...the wind comes from the opposite direction with the windsock...I knew that (

It's pretty awesome...until you drive it under a low bridge and get that tall handle bent backwards and shoved straight up your culo.

Well the patriot missle system was designed to shoot down scud missles...its hellafied accurate (I was in a signal corps unit in the army attached to an ADA brigade that used Patriots) and this technology wasnt the newest on the block. Just image what they have their hands on now...

A few very experienced jumpers at my dz wear them from time to time, but I have no intentions of doing anything that would distract me from my goal...landing my canopy uneventfully.

On my 2nd jump that we completed the 4-way and I was in the 'tail' position...Demo was jumping with me. So I'll hit him and and ask him for further advice about how to launch front floater better. Thanks for everyones replies. I am trying my best to soak it all in and apply it when I am outside the door ready to exit.

---------------------------------------------------------- We tried launching a chunk 4-way while linked the previous jump and that didnt work so when I was on the ground there was another jumper that was an AFF instructor to do a 5 way. So there were 3 people on the outside of the aircraft with 2 on the inside and me in the front floater position and he wanted me to free fly down to the group. Obviously that didnt work since I'm so light weight I was hovering a few feet above the formation and I didnt like being up there so I turned 90 right and got out from top of them. Now on the previous jump it WAS a 4-way with me front float and two jumpers on the inside. We tried launching a chunk but since I couldnt get into the relative wind that well the exit got funnelled. Sorry if I made that clear as mud.

A Perfect Getaway with Steve Zahn and Timothy Olyphant. I personally loved this movie and before I watched it I thought it was going to be lame.

I wonder how much farther he could have descended under the water before the rotors became immersed and the aircraft went down. That was freaking ballsy.

------------------------------------------------- One of the gentlemen I was jumping with was telling me to grab onto that, but he said that Rabbit would get pissed if he knew I was holding onto it...Heck I was doing good just holding on where I was at. But I will try it more often the more I get out of my comfort zone and try the front float exit more. Thanks for everyones replies...I'm just trying to get better so I don't funnel the formation on exit. And I have the luxury of living 20 minutes from Spaceland so most of the time the A/C I am jumping is an Otter.

One of the reasons I had both of my hands on the rail is because so much prop blast was hitting the side of my rig that I felt like I needed both hands on there to support my weight without falling off. Its quite possible that I confused the position I was exiting in. The position I was having problems with is with 3 people outside and I am closest to the wing...ie the front of the door...when I did (what I was described as base) was on the opposite side closest to the tail and I had no problems with that exit. It was when I was closest to the front of the door and getting blasted by the prop blast into my rig and kept two hands on the rail and kept looking down to see the count to my right.

Sweet...thanks for the replies...and by the way when I left on Saturday the ladies had completed a 39-way and broke the record. I am sure since the weather was so nice both days that shattered that.

5:0 5 jumps on a beautiful day on saturday. I didn't jump on sunday because I don't have a money tree in my backyard.

Seriously shah... you would probably get further if you didn't refer to the IT guys as dorks. ----------------------------------------------------- and if I were you IT Admin...you wouldnt get any data recovered when you broke your computer on a constant basis. Aww...now you can't get your porn back

One of the things that I noticed was that I had both hands on the bar above the door. Should I have had my left hand free to get into the relative wind quicker? or is it ok to leave both hands on the rail?

I have been trying different 4-way exits most recently at my home dz. Let me first say that ...wow. I know RW looks easy when you watch Airspeed and the Golden Knights. But that shit's alot harder than it looks! Ok so I've been trying various exits while working on 4-way this past saturday. I found that for my body frame and size I can exit base and maintain stability just fine, but when I 'attempt' front floater I find the propwash blasting the side of my rig and my 5'11 155 lbs ass gets blown around quite a bit and both times I tried front floater I funnelled the exit. What tips can you give me for a skinny bastage like myself to get into the propwash quickly and become stable so I don't funnel the exit. I know I'm still way green when it comes to this but I don't like sucking ass! I want to get better. Any help is appreciated.
