it's a little silly and condescending of you to think that you are in a position to say who is and isn't "welcome". your vitriol is enough to have a fellow atheist turn to religion! -
from some of the self-avowed "atheists" here I would expect nothing less than a public protest. So get out there and let the american public know that you will not stand for the co-option of what was once a pagan holiday by these scheming awful Christian Consumerists! link

The separation abates more and more. Pretty cool. link

no, i don't think it does (although i cannot imagine what a "single reality" might be).

"And if I know what is happening to me in the here and now, I don't need to ask the question, "What will happen to me after this body disintegrates?" There is no "before" and "after", just as there is no birth and death. We can be free of these notions in this very moment, filled with the great joyful silence of all that is."

Nietzsche was a monster. -
Hood had huge inherent drama cuz the peeps were confirmed to be alive. Contact was established, then dropped, so everyone knew someone was alive, so it became a race against time. Perfect headline grabber. And the drama continued for over a week, with horrendous weather conditions etc. Epic movie material.

Finally something we can both agree on!!!! yes but one of us can do it in a coherent sentence. there's some lists that you shouldn't want to be on, let alone be #1. have a nice day aah yes, another self-proclaimed paragon of grammatical virtue. "Let ye who hath not sinned, cast the first stone."

thanks for teaching a man to fish, bitches. PWN (verb) 1. An act of dominating an opponent. 2. Great, ingenious; applied to methods and objects. Originally dates back to the days of WarCraft, when a map designer mispelled "Own" as "Pwn". What was originally supose to be "player has been owned." was "player has been pwned". Pwn eventually grew from there and is now used throughout the online world, especially in online games. 1. "I pwn these guys on battlenet" 2. "This strategy pwns!" or "This game pwn." by Tactical Ghost Aug 31, 2003 email it

That's right, it's that time of the year for countdowns. My favorite is the top 100 classic rock songs countdown, as if the classic rock songs change each year. yeah but maybe rock you like a hurricane will move up to #47. did you ever think of that?
-
PWN'd!!!! yeah babyyyyyyyy!!!! (now can somebody tell me what the hell pwn means?)

Seattle SuperBlazers. Hmmmmmmm....

but my bigger point is that everyone will see "the facts" differently, and respond differently, based on their own predilections, and you can't give the benefit of the doubt to people such as the ones in this administration (with the idea that they have some insights that justify their approach; we already KNOW what they are about).

a world view based on domination and resource control through any violent means necessary will have everyone sliding down the razor.

he has definitively taken and solidified sport climbing at a new level. i think that adam ondra kid might be next.
-
the guy's climbed everything. Realization, La Rambla extension, what 25 5.14 onsights, and other "strong" climbers had tried it. It wouldn't surprise me if the grade (european) sticks. He needs to come to america... yeah yeah yeah fanboy and all that

If you had four months to travel and climb...

mebbe australia for bouldering and ropes. i've been thinking of sailing to hawaii this spring, but i might change plans for climbing destination instead. -
mmmmm, and my penis is brown.

oh and this just in: maximum strength improves endurance! if it only takes you 50% of your strength to do something that takes someone else 75%, you'll probably be able to continue doing those moves for longer.
-
yes lots of both of those. i'd warm up pretty well, stretch etc, then do 8 reps 50% of max, 6 reps 60%, 5 reps at 70% 3 sets, 3 reps at 80% or 90% 2 sets, then back down the percentages at the same rep and set counts. as you can see, you end up doing lots of reps, but with low rep counts. got the idea from the russian powerlifters who try to maximize power but not size (they also ruled the world in comps). obviously you need to increase weight as you get stronger, which happens pretty fast (a few weeks). and the exercises i did: one arm lat pulls, one arm triceps extensions, bent dumb bell raises, two arm lat pulls (i always did one arms first to maximize one arm power). another i'd do is stand at the lat pull machine and with straight arms, push down the bar while standing behind the seat with one leg forward for balance. i thought this was great for core strength, and it certainly seemed to help. another was to stand sideways to the lat machine and push the bar down with one arm to the side. good for iron cross lock down power. lots of weighted pull-ups and wide grip typewriters. again same reps and sets as above, but with weights to create the right reps at the right percentage of max (be careful of shoulders with these; if you get weird pain, please stop!). it took a couple of weeks to really get into the swing of it with max's and rep counts and all that, but after that the improvements came pretty quick. oh another awesome workout: figure out your maximum pull-up rep, and take 75% of it. mine was about 22 when i started, so i took 16. you do the 75% rep count, rest 2 minutes, do it again, rest 2 minutes, do it again, for a total of 5 sets. it kicks your ass! doubtful you'll get more than 3 complete sets, but get as many as you can. twice a week, and it took me 3 weeks to get all 5. then you increase your numbers. i think my rep max went from around 22 to over 30 in a month. do them in control, not swinging and piking. ah good times. fun way to spend finger injury recovery time!

nice on the improvement, that's cool. I wonder though if setting up something in your house to hook your tools onto and then hanging on them might not be a heck of a lot better training for actually hanging on to them when out climbing? i can imagine various workouts where you'd maybe do timed hangs with both hands on tools, timed hangs with weights, one arm hangs, etc etc and various set counts etc where the training would be much more specific than using a gripper. i'd throw in locks too, where you pull up with both tools and let go with the other, and then see if you can hold the one arm lock. al sorts of fun!
