  1. Here is the pic that was in the paper... more will be on my site in a day or two... J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  2. struggling to leave that alone... All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  3. After a night of heavy drinking at a boggie, Chili Party at Archway I think, on the first load of the following morning someone was felling a little quezy... then puked in their helmet... not wanting it to stik up the whole plane the helmet was passed to the guy sitting by the door, who then opened the door and tried to empty the helmet into the wind... you can guess what happend... it all blew right back in the door and covered the guy... a few more people almost lost it when that happend... Most of the students around here tend to wait 'til they are on the ground... may be because we tell them that their instructor is a sympathy puker...

  4. What are the doing on their bellies!? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  5. You can get a CD/DVD printer for under $100... the media is slightly more expensive, but you run less of a chance of having your disk not work. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  6. Is the problem before or after the demark? If its their lines that are the problem, yes they should pro-rate... if the problem is in your household lines, and you don't have "in-line wire service" or something that makes them responsible for the line inside you home, then they have no reason to pro-rate it.

    Thanks! I have not received mine yet...Which picture was it? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  10. In the results from the Freestyle Open, it is listed as a V2X... From pictures it appears that Clint (5th) was the only one flying one. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  11. It was in Sports Illustrated... not Activities Illustrated. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  12. What kind of wing loadings are we looking at? Are you including "tapered" designs in the square or elliptical category? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  13. The hood is not removable... there is some vignetting with the barrel, but if your subject is less than a full frame, it is not much of an issue... I have not jumped with barrel, but it fits on fairly snug, so it should be doable... The hood itself does not cause any problems, or noticeable drag.

  14. Would you agree to something like this for run of the mill student type work? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  15. They would OWN them, or have rights to use them, meaning you have no rights to use them for any purpose yourself? As for the portion of the sales money, what type of %, more or less than half? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  16. I have heard of this situation going on in places (don't know specifically where), and actually seen it at one event... Would you sign an employment contract (or event waiver) where the DZO or event organizer were to own ALL rights to any video or stills you shot on a work jump? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  17. Extreme light will damage cameras... I burned out a TRV900 while tracking a plane with a 2x lens on and tracked right into the sun... As for welding, not sure... Don't do it with a 2x lens on though. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  18. Housing prices will not come down until interest rates start to go up... at best they will level off... many financial planners will tell you to buy what you can now (with relatively cheap money), with cheap money... and stop paying someone else's mortgage. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  19. I haven't weighed my current setup, but my last one was between 7 and 10 lbs, depending on which combinations of cameras... The 10 pounder was a FTP w/TRV20 (in a Dbox), Canon D60 (20mm Canon Lens), and Olympus E20. Both stills on Stroboframes J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  20. First, The US position in South Korea is not about South Korea at all... it is about keeping a buffer between North Korea and Janpan. Second, Iraq is not about 9/11, never has been and never will be. It is about removing a destabilzing force in the region that is of economic importance to us... Did Saddam support OBL, probably not, did he support terrorists, absolutely. Just about every nutbag wannabe suicide bomber in Gaza or the WB knew Saddam's name, and about the money he offered for attacks on Israel. Third, the US may, at times, mis-judge countries in Asia, but I do recall a fairly significant mis-judgment made by Japan in 1941. Fourth, you stated that you have been living in Korea for some time, yet your profile says Gremany... which is it? Oh, as I look at the clock, I see troll feeding time is over... .
  21. Fair, maybe... legal mabe not... it may get you out of damages, because of good faith... but they will still make you stop distribution. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  22. Every canopy I have owned... the smallest being a Velocity 96 at 2.5:1... not sure how many times I've done it on any particular canopy, but it is part of my regular procedure with a new one, or a demo.

    Fish

    A lot of pet stores will take the fish, and put them in a quarenteen tank, to prevent diseases from infecting other fish... beter to take them to a fish shop, than a petsmart... they will be better equiped to take good care of them.

    Fish

    Which one do you like better? Which one can you get more money for? Can you start a second tank, or get a tank divider? J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
  25. FTP... You can spend the extra coin on better cameras or lenses... you could always compromise... get a FTP, with a custom top plate from Wes. J All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke
