Actually, some popular slogans are crocks of shit. For the most part, that's one of them. .................................................................... Okay, I will step up to that challenge. I hold two Exeminer ratings: Rigger and Tandem Instructor. Over the past year I have packed more than 200 reserves and done more than two hundred jumps with tandem students. I also trained three new riggers and a couple of new tandem instructors. Skydiving isn't one of those applications, and if you read the post in context, I've suggested quite the opposite. In skydiving, you *have* to demonstrate that you possess the skills in order to be able to teach them to others. I haven't disputed that at all. My point is a very simple one. IF the consensus is that teaching skills are important enough that they comprise a required part of the syllabus for someone seeking an instructional rating, THEN the person teaching those pedagogical skills should be qualified to do so with some objective proof (an earned credential of some sort) of that qualification. If it's not important enough for the qualification of the course director in this area of the syllabus to matter, then maybe pedagogy shouldn't be part of the instructional rating requirements at all and the candidates could save some time and money. _____________________________________________ What is your " earned credential" suggestion.

I don't think you're going to find a lot of disagreement. Unfortunately, the system is what it is and until there is a major revision, nothing will change in the slightest, but there would be a HUGE resistance to changing it at all. I personally think professional juries would be the way to go, but I'm fairly certain that would never fly. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> And make them union professional juries too.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Cartoon idea still is not full proof. The bad guys will just stick a quarter pound of c-4 or whatever up their rectum. They tried to take out a Saudi prince or official this way a couple months ago. Failed, but he was close. So expect to bend over also.

The rear guy looks like a local. It appears he has no leg straps and just a strap around his butt. During the approach to the ground he almost looks upside down and using the lines to help steer the canopy somewhat.

OK. I take a shot of scotch in a glass with no water(ice). A good drink. Now I start to add water and ice, more and more, and before long my drink tastes like day old piss. (just a presumption) That is what is happening to our gene pool with more and more people. I knew this guy was off the first time I saw him doing and interview.

I presume the reserve toggles were still stowed when you landed.

Another movie that reflects the showmanship and puppeteering of politics is the movie "Face In The Crowd" wih Andy Griffin. Bill Cliton always reminded me of Lonesome Larry.

I would have no speed limit on the road and let people dash across the hazardous area. What about the boulders that did not make it down over the road and into the ford? Pilot to his wife in the morning. "Well honey, I got to go bust my balls now"

Even the worst state DMV in the US would not be that bad. How do the Brits put up with it? Congratulations!

Police shoot a man amed with a Mac10 in times Square.
wayneflorida replied to SuperKat's topic in Speakers Corner
The sergeant confronted the men on Broadway, south of 45th Street. One of the men ran north, then west on 45th Street and into the driveway of the Marriott, toward the parking garage. As the sergeant gave chase, the man turned and opened fire, shattering two glass windows of the hotel. The sergeant returned fire, mortally wounding the man. >>>>>>>>GOOD -
You owe lots of beer.

In most states, the tax is already there, regardless of the manner by which the transaction is financed. Generally, state real estate transfer tax needs to be paid in order to record the deed (because until the new deed is recorded, the state may not legally recognize the transfer, resulting in a "clouded title"), so it's usually paid at the closing table. For a technically-taxable sales transaction for an asset for which there is no need to formally transfer and record ownership title, yes, tax laws can sometimes be unlawfully evaded, if one is so inclined, by paying cash. But where title ownership must be formally transfered and recorded, for example with real estate or vehicles, it really doesn't matter; the tax must be paid when the title-of-record is transferred, regardless of how the purchase may have been paid for. --------------------------------------------------------- I was off topic. Thinking more of business in cash and that cash can go right into pocket that is labeled fuck the IRS. Also my cash transaction tax would for using cash to purchase items that one could use a credit card or check for. This would keep the cash out of that certain pocket because there is a paper trail.

The government hates cash. Hard to tax. I the future they will probably pass a tax on cash transactions.
