I'm currently deployed, and on HAZ DUTY orders for airborne, as well as getting BAS. I took what I've made thus far this year (according to this months LES) and roughly doubled it (keep in mind, I'm a single E-5 that lives in the barracks with absolutely no revolving debt). My background and clearance should be a good foot in the door. This company seems very interested in hiring me, pending the contract. Thanks for the other info though.

Electronics gadgets have a 50% revival success rate if the battery was dead or removed quickly, and you dry them out first before trying to test them out (turning them on). The bag-of-rice drying trick is a popular one. (leave waterlogged gadget in a bag of rice for 3 days, or alternatively leave on the top of a radiator or other warm spot for 3 days). Yes, such techniques also saved an iPod touch that went through laundry -- I saw a photograph. Some dried water spots behind the screen, but that's it. They have nonremovable batteries, so those are harder to save, but still possible, especially if battery was almost dead. Though, the dryer trip in addition, probably was a bit too much... Water exposure is mostly harmless compared to water+electricity (zap) which is the kicker, so battery removal is important. Google "saving a wet phone" -- success rates are impressive if you follow instructions right. (I personally have good experience myself, too.) The ipod still worked fine, after it dried out. No taking the battery out of those things (easily) Just some spots behind the screen and the internal speaker sounded like crap.

I don't generally cruise in the right lane, I found cops get ya more often there. I just move over to pass then move back. Ya assumed that I just pussyfoot in the left lane, and you're wrong.

According to the AFN commercials, the air force has just as large of a space program as NASA... maybe you could get a foot in the door there? Ofcourse, you would have to leave Spaceland.

Well, UPT does list it on their order sheet as being "SKYHOOK RSL"... Seeing as they invented the skyhook, I'll take their word on it. \ tried to find the opotion for both.....care to point out where it is? It has a collins lanyard that releases the non RSL side and pulls the reserve pin. Then it is attached via the SKYHOOK to the reserve bridle. So a SKYHOOK equipped rig needs to have an RSL, otherwise the SKYHOOK won't actually be doing anything.

As many of you know (or do now) I am looking for post-army employment. I've got one good one (not the dream job, but it'll be alright as I can do it too). They're waiting to see if they win the bid for the contract before they give me a solid offer, but I have a contingency offer on the table now. How the hell do you negotiate for pay? I mean... why can't they just fucking say "We will give you 70k for your starting pay" they have to bring up what I am currently getting paid, and how much my 'lowest acceptable pay' is? I realize the company is just trying to save some cash and all, but I don't know how much cash they're saving on me.

Over the ground, no. In relation to the plane you just jumped out of, yes, the throw will be the same. Isn't ground seperation the overall goal?

My Optima even on the lowest setting is painfully loud. Each time you got ringing in your hear, you have sustained PERMANENT hearing damages. They are simply not noticeable at first. but the effects are cumulative over time and when you notice the problem, it is already to late.... Even if you turn it around so the speaker is facing outwards?

Yep, but throw not affected by any wind, it's only matter of airspeed and specific of your body and the way as you present it to the relative air flow)) So, if you were to exit an aircraft with a 90kt airspeed and 0kt windspeed, you would be 'thrown' as much as if you exited with a 90kt airspeed and a 50kt windspeed?

I'll admit, I read the thread title wrong and thought it said 'Ozzy new to skydiving' I was going to say that motherfucker has been higher than any plane will take you!

If I am in the left lane and passing at a decent speed (say 5-10 over) and someone comes up on my ass, I'll still be passing the guy on the right, it just takes longer.

I will tell anyone this: I drive a pickup truck... if you're so close that I can no longer see your headlights in my rear-view, I will slow down to maybe right at the speed limit. I could just slam on my breaks, say I was avoiding a deer and you buy me a new truck, so which would you rather?

Oh please, can't you just see that creates a cycle of never ending upgrades? First you get bigger bumpers so you can "nudge" people forward, then you have to get a bullet proof windshield. Because they didn't shoot straight they messed up your paint job, so now you need a flamethrower to get back at them. On and on. Dude, these are spartan times. I can't afford all that shit. If you do a TVI correctly, you shoudn't have any paint transfer much less dents or scratches.

And you have updated your drivers recently...correct? Could be drivers, video card/ram or the wiring. I would probably go with drivers first (free and easy to fix) folowed by video card/ram.
