  1. Yes I have and it doesn't seem to matter. It flickers until the screen is black at low exposures or washed out at high exposures.
  2. My PC109 flickers dim to bright constantly in both record and playback. Here's an example video, it gets bad after 15 seconds: http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=3868863 I'm guessing the aperture isn't controlling the exposure properly. Is there anyway to correct this other than costly camera company repairs? Any help is appreciated!
  3. Whenever you're in Little Rock, skydivers are always welcome. it would probably be wise for you to not have such a broad statement. I spent 20+ years in central arkanas, many MANY nights in LR, and damn if i didnt need a place to crash once in a while! Im assuming the school you speak of is UAMS? Glad youre happy, but DAYUM it would take a substantial amount of $$ to get me to move back there! Yep, it's in Hillcrest near UAMS and I am getting a substantial amount of money to move here.

  5. Not until after I take out the leopard print wallpaper! Eventually she'll come back here, at least that's the plan. Everything but her rig has been here in Little Rock since we moved here.
  6. Next Tuesday I close on my first house. It was built sometime between 1880-1906, depending on which papers you look at. It's in great shape and I'll be moving in a few weeks. It's in a nice old subdivision in Little Rock, AR near a medical school and some parks. My crappy college student furniture is going to look bad in a house like this. The pictures don't even do it justice...
  7. Let's see what you can do with dreadlocks! Here's me and my girlfriend, use which ever pictures work better for you.
  8. My tops: 1. PBF 2. Wigu 3. Bunny (http://www.frozenreality.co.uk/comic/bunny/)
  9. Beer advocate has released a top 100 beers list: http://beeradvocate.com/top_beers.php and here are the beers we drink: http://beeradvocate.com/top_beers.php?id=worst I can't believe Natty light is considered better than Coors light! And why isn't PBR on the worst list!?
  10. I go to UT and I can tell you that neither UF or UT are premier programs, at least not this year! Maybe if we had a quarterback that could do something other than handoffs...
  11. I'm graduating this December and have signed up for interviews with almost every company that hires engineers. Since then I've realized that I don't want to work in most of the locations and don't want to work in most of the positions I'm interviewing for. Now that I have a job offer that I do like I've come up with a few ways of having fun during the interviews, which I haven't done yet (I know, I'm a chicken). DRESS Black suit, black tie, black sunglasses. COLOGNE/PERFUME Liberally apply Jack Daniels to your neck and chest. For optimal effect gargle and swallow 1-14 shots. ANSWERING QUESTIONS We all get tired of behavior based questions like, "Give an example of how you recently used your leadership skills to stop an evil dictator from world domination." So all you need to do is come up with a few questions you think they will ask like "Tell me about yourself" and preplan at LEAST a 20 minute response. After question two you're sure not to get the job. ASKING QUESTIONS When the tables are turned and you are expected to ask the representative questions about their organization, give them a taste of their own medicine. Ask each of your questions in the form of behavioral questions. As in, "Tell me about a time when your company's training program helped a hew hire complete their goals." And watch them squirm. Now you are prepared for interviewing failure, go out and have fun.
  12. Ms. Jean at Gold Coast Skydivers! Best french toast in the world!
