  1. eh, you never know... ya might live till you're 100 and get cancer at 101 and get to post about it on the forums :)
  2. I think you don't need a water resistant camera, just a water-resistant case... see if there are any available for your current camera. I think a lot of them have it nowadays. for instance, here's the first thing that google gave me: http://www.waterproofcases.net/waterproof-camera-cases.html
  3. ouch, that really looks like it hurts. I feel your pain right now... careful with this, dude, if you keep it up like that your skin is going to want some cancer...
  4. screw tombstones, me wants ash dive
  5. looking forward to Saturday! geesh I can't believe nobody else has replied to this thread yet...
  6. yeah, bgill asked about this when iGoogle first started and I said I'd eventually go do that and I still haven't found the time.... maybe this summer, after I'm done with classes...
  7. you might wanna try before buying. I once borrowed a friend's fullface and tried it with my glasses and somehow due to the shape and size it made my glasses fog up a lot (not the visor, just the glasses), whereas my Z1 has never done that to me. I've only had a few jumps with the glasses though, I try to wear contacts most of the time... so maybe it was my fault somehow.
  8. awesome, thanks, I'll give it a try it doesn't need to accept pdf, that was just the easy way to post multiple images here without attaching single frames, I have separate png's (could easily convert to whatever)
  9. yes... but is there an easy way to automate things? or would I have to manually insert each slide?
  10. I have a series of images that show the gradual change in color to the nodes of a graph (see attached pdf if you scroll down fast you get the idea) I have the separate files saved independently, named incrementally, whatever (I have code to generate them so it's all pretty flexible) What I need is a quick'n'dirty way to automatically generate a little movie or some flash animation or whatever to loop through the images in a presentation. Any easy way to do that? First thing I found online was telling me to use Adobe Premiere, I'm looking for something that doesn't have me pay for software. edited to clarify: I'm looking for an automated process since I'll probably have hundreds of files so I don't want to insert each one by hand
  11. also, another thing to do: - pick some events ahead of time when you want to do something fun just for yourself (like a boogie or going to see some show or even sleeping session, whatever you feel you need the most) - mark those on your calendar. - when asked to do something else that coincides, think about it just as any other scheduling conflict. if your 2 jobs asked you to do something at the same time, you would have to tell one that you can't because of the other and work around it somehow. Imagine the stuff for yourself counts as yet another job and you just can't put it off.
  12. hang in there... I know how you feel. one thing you can do for now is delegate responsibility. if the dz really needs a packer, see if you can ask one of your friends to pack tandems for, say, 2 hrs, another one to pack for another 2, and so on... of course, those who are qualified to do that... same with the work - see if you can take a day off sometime and just have a friend sub for you I don't know the details so it might not work the way I'm suggesting it. Try to ask yourself how much longer do you really need to overwork yourself like this. Are the current jobs helping you move towards a better situation where you will have more time for yourself, or could it potentially go on like this for a long time? If it's only something really temporary, like maybe a few months max, then it may be okay, but make sure you set that deadline and when it comes, if things haven't changed, try to look for a change (even if it's really hard) If it looks like this could go on for a very long time, you need to do something asap! Sooner or later you won't have enough energy to go on like this. You would also run the risk of getting overstressed and developing depression and then you won't even be able to do the work you're doing now... You need to take care of yourself and ensure that your huge amount of work won't affect your health.
  13. awesome info! you're my new hero :) I'll see you at Orange sometime...
  14. I've had great experience with their customer service. I've been meaning to post about it for a while but forgot... I bought this used Quasar II and it had a very minor defect... sent it to them, they serviced it in one day and sent it back, the next day the package was already at my door, together with the reserve repacked for free. I was very pleased with the service.
  15. it's in Lebanon, Maine It just happens to be close to Boston so they have some people coming from there, but it's in Maine for sure. http://skydivenewengland.com/jDirections.html

  20. energy drinks are no good. they give you a great kick but then they also make you tired after about an hour. best is to try not to drink coffee regularly, or anything with too much caffeine... so then when you really need the all nighter, a little bottle of coke will work like a charm and keep you up all night.
  21. derek this is not the speaker's corner!
