  1. That pretty much sums it up. My goals are to be able to save some clips on my computer (to send to friends/family) and once in a while make a DVD showing the highlights of some of the footage I have collected. I don't have the money to spend on Adobe Premier so I was thinking of picking up a program like Power Director (http://www.cyberlink.com/multi/products/main_4_ENU.html) to do the job. Is that a good/bad decision? _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  2. I have taken video off this camera before without this problem (using windows movie maker). I am going to try to use a different quality setting when I capture it again (I used the "Send back to the mini DV tape" option, next time I will try the best play back on computer opinion to see how it works. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  3. 0:19:1 First jump with a camera on my head. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  4. Yup that's it! Picture 1. It doesn't seem to be as bad as that but that is what I am getting. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  5. Firewire. I am going to go hook it up to my TV to see if I am getting it before I capture it. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  6. I just started flying with my PC109 (with a liquid 5 lens and a UV filter). When I got home today I captured a clip with windows movie maker. After saving it I went to view it and I am not really sure how to explain it but nothing looks very smooth. Everything looks like is has jagged edges. Did I set something up wrong? _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  7. Why They Teach Math in School (Written By A Very Wise Man) I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in front of a pickup truck. The guy had to drive on to the shoulder to avoid hitting the woman. This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out his window and "flipped" the woman off. "Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in traffic, and here's why: I drive 48 miles each way every day to work. That's 96 miles each day. Of these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway. There are 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be 982 cars every mile, or 31,424 cars. Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper-to-bumper, I figure I pass at least another 4000 cars. That brings the number to something like ! 36,000 cars that I pass every day. Statistically, females drive half of these. That's 18,000 women drivers! In any given group of females, 1 in 28 has PMS. That's 642. According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as dissatisfying or unrewarding. That's 449. According to the National Institute of Health, 22% of all females have seriously considered suicide or homicide. That's 98. And 34% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 33. According to the National Rifle Association, 5% of all females carry weapons, and this number is increasing. That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female that has a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed. Flip one off? ... I think not! _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity

  9. An AFF student broke his femur on Sunday at SDLI when he didn't flare on his landing. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  10. No idea if this has been posted before: http://www.controlledmedia.com/pages/mammoplasty.htm 87% There is no nudity but it might not be safe for work. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  11. Driving in a car alone with Larry will completely wipe out your thrill levels long before you get to SDLI. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity

  13. They make goggles that fit over your classes. I did that for about 90 jumps. I didn't like how the goggles were squishing my glasses against my faced so I went and got contacts (best idea). With contacts you have any choice you want with regards to styles of goggles. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  14. I use google. Type definition: *whateverwordyouwanttolookup*, if you spell it wrong it will attempt to correct it for you and then give you the definition, killing two birds with one stone. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  15. If you get yours in 6 weeks then I would really like to know why they take so long on orders to the US. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  16. 600 feet isn't bad as long as you know the general direction of where your main has gone. Here at SDLI we have a good patch of dense trees that normally catch the main/free bag. Often there are numerous eye witnesses of the general direction of where the main has landed in the trees but because of the dense trees it often takes a while to find. A device like this would make it easier to find since all you would have to do is to walk in the general direction of your main and wait for it to show up on the gizmo. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity

  18. The wind sucks so much! I wanted to jump all weekend at SDLI but didn't even bother to come out because it was gusting so much. The weekend is looking good so far. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
  19. If you look at this guys other post in the incidents section it would seem like he knows a thing or two about tandem hardnesses. I would think that he would know what is going on in that picture and whether or not it is a safe thing to do. _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity

  23. I am about to purchase a Cookie Composites Liquid lens for my PC-109. I saw that you can add a UV filter for a certain price ($44 I believe). Is it worth the money to get it? _________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity
