WRONG. These people were NOT engaging in constitutionally protected speech. They were inciting violence against gays. Period. Their speech presents a unambiguous, clear and present danger to the intended target. This is much worse than yelling fire in a crowded theatre and such. There is a direct line between the speech of the Phelps cult and such events as the murder of Matthew Sheppard and others. To even further aggravate the crime is that their speech also presents a clear and present danger to themselves. If this was not true, they would not be able to support themselves by filing civl lawsuits against those who assault them, as they surely will in this case. No these people are not exercising the first amendment, they are perpetrating a crime. A crime with a specific target and a specific goal. If this was anything else, say targeting jews or Muslims, it would be labeled terrorism and the full weight of the feds would be falling on the heads of these social degenerates. They deserve no protection. None. They deserve to be rotting in cell, forgotten and never to be be heard from again. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

So, whatever happened to the flamingo as the de-facto mascot of skydiving? Also, is the turbo mingo still vertical? Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

OK, I'll check. NN wiorks in Aperture? The reason I asked that was it seems others shooting the T1I don't have a noise issue. Yep. Was thinking of going to JPEG to see if there was any difference.

For some reason, I seem to be unable to get rid of sensor noise in post. I shoot low ISO (100-400 and rarely go higher), but I seem to get an excessive amount of noise no matter what. I'm shooting a Canon T1I and using Aperture for post. Questions are: 1. Does any one know of a plug in that is better at getting rid of noise than the one in Aperture? 2. Is the sensor in a T1I inherently noisy or do I have a bad one? 3. Is there a Canon setting that reduces noise in the menu somewhere that I'm missing? I have the "long exposure noise reduction" turned on, but it seems to do nothing. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

You can thank the current SCOTUS for this shit. They ruled that you can only own something as long as it's convenient for the state to allow you to own it. Eminent domain trumps all unless or until the constitution is amended. Not even the condemnation of one of the justices own houses was enough to demonstrate that they went too far.

I used to see this sort of thing on a regular basis whe I was in the Fire Dpet. My personal "best" was 910 lb man who we had to take out the living room wall of his row house in order to evacuate him to the hospital. He died of pnumonia two days later. His family siad he hadn't been out of the house in 20 years. We run into this sport of thing at least three to five times a year. Typically they're on the third floor of a garden apartment though.

Jobs I've gotten from corner bums: 0 Jobs I've gotten from rich people: 0 Jobs I've gotten from the Fire Dept: 1 Jobs I've gotten from me: (so far) 2 You mean like the fake panics over oil prices? Or the decision of a CEO that he wants a bigger boat? Or any of the other totally arbirary reasons inflation happens? PRINCETON, NJ -- Thus far in 2009, 40% of Americans interviewed in national Gallup Poll surveys describe their political views as conservative, 35% as moderate, and 21% as liberal. http://www.gallup.com/poll/120857/conservatives-single-largest-ideological-group.aspx FNC's Total Day average of 820,000 viewers made up 54% of the cable news pie, nearly doubling CNN's 31% (468,000 viewers) and more than tripling MSNBC's 15% share (226,000 viewers). http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0EIN/is_2004_June_29/ai_n6087812/ So, 21% is a majority? Faux Noise is losing the ratings and rich people give me jobs. Yeah right. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.

Unfortunately, it won't work here. We've got an enitre population drunk on the trickle down kool aid and they've got the majority on their side, plus they've got an enitre media network constantly spewing supportive propaganda. The only way it will change when the enitre system collapes. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.

Which is a bigger threat: Muslim extremists or the KKK?

It would really depend on which one got nukes first. Both are stupid enough to use them. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink. (I never heard of you either!!) AA #2069 ASA#33 POPS#8808 Swooo 1717 -

Wrong. I despise Obama. I am down on the dems and the rightards, tea baggers and all other parties. It's just that when it comes to the current occupant of the WH, I just see more whining than I've ever seen. You guys didn't even whine this much when bubba was in office. Why don't you guys just come clean and say why you hate him so much? I mean, I hate him because he has yet to keep a promise, never fails to cave in and thinks it's OK to continue the war crimes (among other things) from the last admin. And that's just to start. As for Al Gore, isn't he running a TV channel now and making life for the rest of the BOD at Apple a living hell? Even so, if it was his face, considering how much fat he slathered on lately, it'd be funny. Not relevant but funny. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway...

Getting married was the single biggest mistake of my life. Three years into it and everytime I talk to my wife I come away feeling like I've been had. We have utterly noting in common anymore. She is completely indifferent to anything I am interested in, shows active disdain for things we used to have in common and the activities associated with those interests, has no interest in my life or feelings on anything and grows more distant and indifferent by the day. Somehow, this is my fault (or so all the women I talk to about this say),but I just don't see it. The only reason I'm not seeking divorce is that I can't afford to lose my house and pension. Epic Fail doesn't even come close to how bad this is. Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.

Jumper in question was a local at my home DZ. He didn't listen when they told him repeatedly to get out of where he was. Totally his fault, but FAA and ins bastards didn't see it that way.
