    There is actually a few women out there that think cars like the one in the picture are cool.



    Yes, and they probably look like Jabba the Hut B|



    You would actually be surprised.

    I was referring to the car one in the original post.

    dammmn dude, can you tell me what kind of work out you do? i'll be at a 1.0 when i start jumping a 170 (probably the next trip if winds are right) and am 6'1", my % is probably around 20! Blah... PS, really like the embroidery on your cutaway... I was thinking this the last two times I jumped and had line twists (fortunately able to kick out)



    I am a software programmer. The cutaway handle has been reffered to as the "Oh Shit" handle so......


  10. I am stuffing a Sabre 2 190, Silver with black ribs(internal only)...on order. I will wait until I am ready to jump to put a reserve and AAD in that thing.

    The wingloading will be between 1.05(present weight based) and 1.10(usual weight based). I plan to drop a few pounds(12% fat is a bit much for me) as well. Hopefully I can drop enough to keep it below or close to 1.0.

    Ooooooh...pretty!!:)...but I get to jump it in 2 weeks...2 more weeks...2 more weeks...::moan:: two more weeks...[:/]



    Congratulations on your G3!! I won't be able to jump for the next few months and even then I won't be current so I will start back on the 230 and downsize to the 190 (that is what this one holds).

    so MOAN:::::::GROAN :(

    Hmmm, Did'nt I see that video before?

    Stevie was kind enough to show me that video(on his camera) it looked very cool but I did'nt know I was looking at a World Record!!!. :$

    Very Cool!!!!!!!!!


  16. I made one jump on Oct 5(AFF1 my first jump), twisted ankle. Did'nt make a jump until Nov 1st. Made 22 jumps in Nov before breaking my ankle on the 28th.

    I plan to spend some tunnel time before getting back to jumping again. I should be ready for the tunnel mid Feb and be able to jump in March.

    I just received my Mirage G4 today :)


  17. As I was walking into the lobby of my apartment complex, it hit me, 5 weeks ago I had ordered my Mirage G4!! Has it arrived?

    I was'nt expecting it to be there, and since I am injured was not really bothered about it being hypothetically :D late. I asked the security guy at the reception. "If it is there it is a big package" I said.

    Sure enough, there it was!!! 5 weeks to the day with Christmas and the New Year holidays, I was expecting a delay.

    It's Gorgeous!!! Will post pics later.

    Thanks JP!! :)

    90m/h = Vav = change in distance / change in time... but we have no time or distance to work with here so i'm not sure how to work this problem.

    Ok, he finished half of the race at 90mph. So, to average 180mph it would *seem* he'd have to drive 270mph for the remainder of the race... But, this still seems unworkable because it doesn't say how long it took him to complete half of the race. We could make some assumptions and work the problem, but then it wouldn't be an accurate answer.

    I don't get it.

    The reason 270 mph came up is because of a common misconception. If you travelled for the same amount of time and two different speeds, the average speed is the sum of the speeds divided by 2. But this is just a special case and not always true.

    If you travelled between points A and B(distance d miles) and travelled one direction at 90 mph and the other direction at 270 mph the average speed is not 180 mph.

    It is 2d divided by d/90 + d/270 i.e 135 mph.

    Average velocity = Total distance / total time

    The problem is an example to illustrate what many posters(kallend first) have said;

    If you have covered an nth part of a fixed distance d at an average speed of w, you cannot in the remaining distance travel fast enough(lets say v) to make the total average speed n times w.

    Equation 1 :(d/n)*w + (n-1)*d /n*v = d/n*w

    this indicates that v is infinity.

    The equation above is the time for travelling the first nth part of the distance or the distance d divided by n at an average speed of w. (d/n)*w

    The remaining part or ( n-1/n ) * d at v for a time of d * (n-1)/(n*v). for the average speed to be n*w Equation 1 must be true.

    which says

    (n-1)*d /n*v = 0 or that v is Infinity.

    since Michael Schumacher does'nt use an Infinity :P he cannot do it.

    okie...

    think I've made some rig decisions.

    Container: Javelin J4, DOM 1997
    Main: Silhouette 190, DOM 1997
    Reserve: PD 190, DOM 1997
    Cypres: just got its 8 year checkup.

    Gear has about 800 jumps on it. 2 reserve rides.



    Congrats!!

    This was cool. The Colorado Springs Gazette came out and did this story on me and Moms.

    Thanks Quade for chopping this up and condensing it to a viewable article!!!



    Congratulations Jeremy.

    You have the coolest Mom!!

    THANKS :)
    So am I right.... this thing is going KaPut??



    Funny noise could be the hard drive getting ready to die also. Backing up your data would be wise.

    You do not need a router if you just want to use the laptop now to connect to the net via your existing DSL.

    You can get a Network card for your laptop at BB or CC. The DSL service provider might give you a free Laptop network card and set it up. Talk to them.

    As far as backing up data, you might have to use the method Dave suggested, an external Hard drive is the best solution, only problem is I don't know if your PC has a USB or FireWire port.

    I know this is completely off topic, but how is skydiving in Israel anyway? I've been kicking the idea of going back around a bit, would love to jump while there if I do.



    I heard from an Israeli AFP student at our DZ that was talking about going there sometime that they charge an arm and a leg for gear rentals, she said it would workout cheaper if she owned altimeter(certain about this), don't know about jumpsuit, helmet etc though.
