And to think, they were bigger supporters of him than moderate Republicans. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Thank goodness he has only been virtually deleted. If he were actually deleted we would have a scandal on our hands. It was more of an Alt-F4, not a Cntl/Alt/Del kind of deletion. We can restart the program again once there's a President who knows there's more use for technology than insulting people. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

TBH, I think this is a good thing. She and her husband will be better voices than Bannon and Miller. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

How do you determine your exit separation between FF and Belly? If you wouldn't mind, be specific with an example using ground speed and winds aloft. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher -

Sorry man, but your statements don't reflect the consensus of industry knowledge. I don't even know where to start but there are plenty of threads on this website that go into this issue in immense detail. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher -

You're about a decade late on this being a settled issue. Vertical separation is of zero consideration because you cannot guarantee everyone's opening altitude. The separation and exit order between belly and freefly has more to do with freefall drift. At risk of this thread drifting it's better to search other threads on this forum that have explained this to death.

It's no secret that Foundations with their fundraising and handshaking get rolled into political capital. Since the Clintons are less politically relevant they'll probably see fewer donations but it's a very successful group with a very high rating doing a substantial amount of work with two very forceful figureheads. It wouldn't just go away or get shut down. The same can't be said for the Trump Foundation which very obviously only existed to serve Donald's image.

Don't bother. You almost have to explain that the Easter Bunny doesn't exist to even start the explanation. If you need to get there with someone who can understand it here's a link to the audited financial reports of the Clinton Foundation: https://www.clintonfoundation.org/about/annual-financial-reports Another link with a more general explanation of what the Foundation is: http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2016/sep/01/hilary-rosen/democrat-pundit-clintons-get-no-personal-benefit-f/ To Summarize it, no member of the Clinton family draws an income from the foundation. In the meantime Trump used his now-defunct(?) foundation to purchase items for himself and make claims that he's personally contributing to other causes. In one case, he accepted $150k from the Charles Evans Foundation telling them he was raising money for the Palm Beach Police Foundation, donated it, and then in the course of accepting the Palm Tree Award from that foundation in an even held at Mar-a-lago he charged them over $240k for renting the space used to honor himself. For those of you not so savy with math that's a $90k loss he imposed upon the recipient of his "donation" to receive a reward for money that someone else provided.

Exactly, there's no such thing as buying your sins away. Charitable actions don't mean he can continue to do wrongs year after year, there's also no "end justifying the means" with him. His means is telling people that giving money to him means they go heaven, get their sins absolved and their illnesses get cured even though he has no more authority over the afterlife than I do. He's a con artist and bilks people so he can live a life of luxury. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Ah yes, he just missed it: "The Duke of Cambridge regularly pilots the helicopter, codenamed Anglia Two, but it was only by fluke that he was not on board at the time. He was at the controls of the aircraft just days later." ...by a couple of days. In other news the Duke was almost killed by a lory which rear ended another vehicle killing it's occupants just a week after Prince William had crossed the intersection. Fortunately he escaped unscathed. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Good God, quit bringing that ridiculous website over here, it's the biggest pile of rubbish. Every time you do you get debunked. It's the same garbage every time, there's some scientist listed and if you look up the scientist you'll find he's a staunch global warming skeptic, then there are some findings that differ somehow with the extended science community, then there are graphs from random places that barely have anything to do with the material at hand but seem technical or at least confusing enough to fool people like you. Find another source. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

I'm pretty sure the rapture concept was made to scare people into thinking they could be subject to judgement at any moment. Why be a believer when could just wait until you're old and then repent? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Bill you should have taken a few more gen ed courses in college. We did not evolve from monkeys. http://www.sci-news.com/othersciences/anthropology/science-homo-pan-last-common-ancestor-03220.html LOL, Bill just got schooled in science from brenthutch. {Stirs pot, leaves.} "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

The plants are sucking it up before it even reaches the sea. That is why deserts are retreating and Key West is still with us. So in effect the Greening effect caused by an excess of CO2 in the air causes more plants to grow and stops oceans from rising. Cheers. We got this all settled.
