  1. 95% chance on NYT. And unless I did the math wrong, Clinton can't win anymore. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  2. Nope. it's ISIS. Yet another page reporting the same: http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2016/06/isis-announced-florida-attack-three-days-ago/ "UPDATE: Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL) said the killer has links to ISIS." You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  3. I've used Curv Z sunglasses for a long time now. $20-25, some have foam padding which helps with wind (used for motorcycles) and you can put an adjustable cord on them as well to keep them on your head better if you want. I generally don't wear them with my full face, but I do with my open. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  4. I didn't do a tandem because I knew I'd want to keep doing it and figured I should just jump in all the way and do everything. A tandem is still a skydive, just with a buddy. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  5. What really helped me was jumping as many coach jumps as I could and pounding out the tunnel. Once spin stops and roll overs are down, general belly flying in the tunnel is a huge help. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  6. In your head, yes, that's where the debate is. That's where "whatsupwSiththat.com" wants you to think that's where the debate is. But you know that's not really where the debate is. Source, please. I'm sure he's in reference to things like this: http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/study-climate-change-will-caus/25310658 "The study, published in the "Journal of Environmental Economics and Management," showed that climate change will cause an additional 22,000 murders, 180,000 cases of rape, 1.2 million aggravated assaults, 2.3 million simple assaults, 260,000 robberies, 1.3 million burglaries, 2.2 million cases of larceny and 580,000 cases of vehicle theft in the United States between 2010 and 2099."

  7. You should go read O'reilly's talking points for today. He puts out hard evidence from CBS no less that basically blows this smear job out of the water. MJ is crap, and anyone that takes them seriously needs to do a little self-examination IMHO. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  8. For the sake of the hypothetical set up, if confronted with an omnipotent being that literally created everything we know, sees all of the past and the future, etc. I'll put my money on Byrne not being nearly as brave and flippant as he'd like to pretend he'd be--especially if God is as wrathful as he likes to assert he is. He'd probably cower in a puddle of pee. In fact, if God does exist, the idea that He's not tormenting Byrne already in total agony really defeats Byrne's own supposition that God is some sort of total monster (if exists) since said, crazy, stupid, angry, vengeful god would be tearing into Byrne for such remarks (ala the old Greek and Roman gods who did so all the time).

  9. Oh, this is a praise thread. Silly me thinking otherwise. Okay, I wanna play :) Highest National Debt ever - Praise him! Obamacare more expensive and confusing than ever - Praise him! First US sovereign debt downgrade - Praise him! Actual people in the work force lowest in decades - Praise him! Long term unemployment highest since the 30s - Praise him! Homeownership lowest in 50 years - Praise him! Civvies killed by drones, highest ever - Praise him! Gitmo open, torture still the SOP - Praise him! More people dependent on the govt than ever - Praise him! You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  10. I have a tony suit with megabooties. Those suckers will never slip off and the power behind them is fantastic. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  11. http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/forensic-expertagrees-city-autopsy-eric-garner-article-1.1946458 "After reviewing case files, photographs and X-rays, Baden said he agreed with the ruling that the 43-year-old Staten Island man died from compression of the neck. ... A famed forensics expert hired by the family of police chokehold victim Eric Garner said Friday the city medical examiner’s autopsy was spot on. Dr. Michael Baden — after reviewing case files, photographs and X-rays — said he agreed with the ruling that the 43-year-old Staten Island man died from compression of the neck. The medical examiner “did an excellent autopsy,” Baden said outside the ME’s office on First Ave. at E. 30th St." You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  12. I have a GSW, left ankle, all three bones fractured. By some miracle it was a clean break (nothing shifted) and the surgeon who looked at it for eval said I should by a lottery ticket. That being said, it was a couple of months before I was putting any pressure on it (crutches prior) with a walker cast. I can't imagine jumping on it only 4 months later. It gave me problems for about a year with any amount of high impact, and still flares up this day from time to time. Take it easy would be my advice (as others have said) and let it heal, especially if you are just barely walking as of now. You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.
  13. 1,500 is really low for not having a canopy you know you can land. Was that the first time you looked at your alti during all of this? Do you know when you came out of the line twists? You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.

  15. Ah, the magical climatology scientist. A wonderful creature, far elevated and evolved from the realm of man, that is completely immune to politics, funding, pride, group-think, peer pressure, and basic psychology that's ruled all other men since the dawn of time. With a wave of its hand, it can show that constant failures in predictions throughout decades as actual successes. It can survive blows to dogma that would have proven mortal any other discipline long ago! Hail to you, climatology scientist! Truly, you are a sight to behold and worthy of all praise.
