it is all clear now, job well done.

are you feeling ok you forgot to make this a poll?

and he wasn't accused of belong to a radical church with his pastor Rev Wright during his election campaign. I can't believe the sheep from the right, first they bash him for being the wrong kind of christian and now they (20%) believe he is a muslim.

However, he is a raghead. What else can you expect. I must be really bored. I'd better go outside for awhile. Another fine example of why the rest of the world think americans are arseholes, however, as a foreigner living in the USA I can attest that most American are not like this.

He must have been visiting SC, to quote... "I am concerned that if the direction of the news is all blogosphere, all opinions, with no serious fact-checking, no serious attempts to put stories in context, that what you will end up getting is people shouting at each other across the void but not a lot of mutual understanding," he said. He has captured the majority of threads here to a T.

My my you are a good republican, the GOP is proud of you. I have two personal invitations for Bill Clinton's inaugrual ball (no kidding). Does that make me a good little democrat?

A year ago you would have called OBL an idiotic maniac with nothing important or valid to say, now you post his quotes and worship/idolize him. Time does change everything. Talk about flip-flopping. I maintain that OBL is an idiotic maniac with nothing valid to say; I did then and I do now. Yes, very sad that his politics are such that he uses the words of a terrorist who has killed 1000s of fellow citizens as an anti-Obama message. What is the next low will the right wingers will sink to?

Both the House and Senate health care bills as they are now drafted would make illegal aliens ineligible for federally funded health care. And that IS that. I need the rolling eyes to reply to you but, since there is not one here I will laugh What part of section 246 don't you get, it appears very obvious that illegal aliens wont get coverage the way the bills are worded?

Y'all are funny. Do you really believe that any politician has been 100% truthful all his/her life? ANY one of them lies on a daily basis. Time to take off your rose colored GOP hating glasses and join reality. You can't see that it is where and how he said it that outrageous. He totally disrespected the office of the President and the houses of congress.

Not if it's a digital 24hr one .... just agruing for the sake of it Yeah my digital clock broke down and displayed 88:88:88, wrong all the time just like a politician.

Does this mean that UK justice should apply every time a Brit is murdered in the USA? Is bad behavior by one nation an excuse for bad behavior by another? Unles you live in Chicago and are an Obama friend/supporter, if you muder in the 1st degree, you go to prison for life minimum. If you hadn't heard you actually agree with Obama with regard to this release, (take a deep breath while that sinks in) are you feeling OK? Personally I think he should have stayed in jail and eventually moved to a secure hospital to die in custody, he only served 8 years of a life sentence. Compassion would be allowing his relatives to have extra visitation while he was dying.

I have only seen approx. ten different talk shows, and all of them were exactly like this. Can't understand why the people ever watch this crap. A lot of people do it seems or else they wouldn't show it. I guess the sheep like to be driven into a frenzy with this stuff. Fox is probably the worst channel which is why I can't stand it. Larry King is polite if you wanted to see something without the anger. So typical, no facts or proof....just alienate and make fun. Is this all you are capable of doing. Typical of what? you judge me from a handful of posts, that is the only typical thing here. I need to prove that I don't like fox? that is a dumb request. I made my decision a long time ago not to watch Hannity. I don't like the way he presents his information and the way he treats his guests. Why are you so upset over me not liking Hannity? I did look at the information myself and I'm Ok with Obama's "radical" relationships. I think that you and others read way too much into them because you have been fed biased information day in day out by people like Hannity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tCbMFp7eUo is an example of a democrat sheep, I'll leave it up to your imagination who the dog is. And these are republican sheep http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYJaMGcrtWE think of Hannity as one of the dogs.

Why? Because he does research and presents his findings????? Widen your view, dude. I have listened to him on occasion and find him distasteful. He is very disrespectful/rude to guests that don't agree with his point of view. I don't get much out of watching 2 or 3 people all talking loudly over each other to make their point. If you can't tell he has an agenda and that he fits his "findings" to match that then you need to open your eyes, dude. I completely agree with the first part of your reply. Hannity is an absolute jerk. And of course he tries to exploit things that back up his views. Who in his business doesn't? However, if you can't see Obama's real agenda through his cool, calm nature, YOU need open YOUR eyes. Look at the people he has spent years running with. Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, Tony Rezko, etc. And how about the people he has placed in his administration as Czars (which don't require the scrutiny of Congressional confirmation and can't be subpoenaed) like Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel (on record advocating medical prioritization by age and "value to society"), Van Jones (admitted communist radical), John Holdren (who advocated forced abortions, mass sterilization, and a "Planetary Regime"). The list is MUCH longer than that, but you get the idea. Say what you want about right wing commentators, but facts are facts. If you look at what Obama has said and done, who he as chosen to associate with for much of his adult life, and the views of those he has working for him, it's pretty tough to see him as he tries to present himself to the American people. My opinions of the President don't come from the right or left. I'm just callin' 'em as I see 'em. Obama is trying to take the country as far left as he can as fast as he can, and that's a fact. Oh yeah, he bows to Arab royalty too. Thanks B.O. - f*ckin' weasel. I don't think it was a bow, but that is hardly important it is what you think that is important, you've already decided and condemned him. I don't think that his "left wing associations" are a problem. He met some of them while teaching, an occupational hazard that he would have no control over. I alsi have seen nothing to suggest that he took part in activities that these so called left wing radicals are supposed to have committed. Being in the same room or on the same committee as someone does not mean he liked or supported them. Even listening to them does not mean that, you listen to Hannity even though you think he is rude to those who disagree with him, but that does not mean you are like him.

I see, the right wing are getting the word out to all their sheep. Anyone who believes what hannity says needs their head examined.

So you have to stoop to using the words of Bin Laden to attack the president of your own country. Your hatred knows no bounds. It is pitiful.

You've obviously done some quick research. Care to show it to us? I think he's referring to this quote she made in a speech at a University:"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.” I don't think so, he is probably referring to what he heard lush rimjob say, apparently he called her a racist and if he said it it must be true.

Maybe not explicitly, but he may as well have. The OP was pulling higher but his buddy was planning to pull at around the same altitude as the freeflyers. Aside from that, contrary to the post I was responding to, it is very possible for a belly flyer group that follows a freeflyer group to catch up to them around deployment altitude. In the 10-15 seconds between deployments, the freeflyers will descend perhaps 300 feet at canopy descent rates. Given variations in reaction time, instrument precision, canopy opening distance and human error, 300 feet is far too small a buffer to expect there to be no chance of them being close vertically on opening. I wasn't implying that you can rely on vertical separation for anything. from the original post, the freeflyer stated he saw the other two Just as he was opening, at this point I don't think the belly group would have caught up, as they would have been 10-15 seconds behind him. I was using the vertical separation to discount the idea that it could have been them that passed the freefly during deployment. 10-15 seconds is 2000-3000 feet in freefall, there is no way he would mistake this for 45 feet if he had seen them.

Exit order is wrong if there are uppers and the plane was flying into the wind, the reduction in separation that happened here is what results from the wrong exit order like this. but I find it unlikely that both your protracks and altimeters were off by 1000 ft, and even more unlikely that you managed to catch a freecly group when you were flying on your belly. typical belly speed is 120mph, freefly is 150, a freefly group would reach pull altitude about 5-10 seconds faster than a belly group, increasing the vertical separation not reducing it. You should track @ 90 degrees to the jump run on a 2-way not just 180 from each other, otherwise you run the risk of tracking into the next group.

Looks like things are starting to improve. Unemployment rate down in 21 stateshttp://money.cnn.com/2009/05/22/news/economy/State_unemployment/index.htm?postversion=2009052212

I was actually thinking the same thing, along with "and if this was about Clinton's sexual relations we'd have exactly opposite answers from 80% of the posters." This is obviously a topic where people have different answers, and equally, one where most people aren't going to be convinced of the opposite side You mean Republicans like John McCain, the latest Republican presidential nominee? It's silly to try to tar a whole group with that claim, especially when their most recently selected national leader was one of the most vocal opponents of the practice, and especially, especially when it's clear that leaders of the other party (like Nancy Pelosi) knew, and said nothing, while John McCain was vocal in his public opposition. True, I was being unfair to republicans to tar them as a whole, the whole party is not behind this, its just some of the neo-cons loyal to the previous administration and some of their supporters (some on this website).

You sound just like Clinton except he was referring to not have "sexual relations" with his intern. Clinton was full of shit when he said this and was trying to weasel out of admitting he was doing wrong by arguing the meaning of sex. Bush/Chaney/republicans are doing exactly the same thing with regards to waterboarding and like a good republican follower you believe it and defend them to the same degree that devout democrats defend Clinton. Your party must be proud of you.
