Despite the fact that this film looks awful I decided to see it only to find it is playing in one theater fifty miles away. The next closest theater 759 miles away. The next closest 1,400 miles away. I guess this isn't a wide release.

Here is some more info. Turks and Caicos Net News Online: Bringing the Turks and Caicos Islands to the World Osprey hotel has minimal damage

Does anyone have news on how the Turks and Caicos did during Hurricane Ike? I am especially concerned about Grand Turk. Most of the population is on the side that got hit by the hurricane and most of the houses can’t be more then 10’ above sea level. I fear they must have been...

I own three Pelican 1650s. They weight 29 pounds each. Not 20 as some posts have said. With new domestic flight weight limits of 50 pounds this leaves 20 pound of usable weight. This isn’t working for me. Nor do I really need the overkill strength of the Pelican. I’m looking for rolling...

I'm into any kind of diving. I'm working in New Orleans and I'll have a couple of weekends off. I'm just looking for a day trip. If I don't dive on this trip I'll be OK. Just didn't want to miss something monumental.

I'll be working in New Orleans for a month and was wondering what the diving conditions are like around there this time of year. Any must do dives?

Jon is completely right. Your movie light is probably daylight balanced. That means it is the same color as daylight. At or near the surface your light will work well and pretty much match the natural light filtering through the water. As you go deeper the water can shift the day light to...

If you are into submerged cities, diving, and horror you might enjoy the book “Beneath Still Waters” by Matthew J. Costello. It’s pretty scary in a Stephen King sort of way. A reporter diver shooting a photo essay of a submerged town discovers it is haunted. The book was made...

If divers want to explore areas of a wreck that are designated as dangerous and out of bounds they do so at their own risk. Because of the nature of a wreck or a ski run it is impossible to prevent this behavior. I think it is the responsibility of the people who sink the wreck or manage it to...

So when I look at my PADI Dive planner it says the no deco limit for 110’ is 16 minutes of BT. So does that mean if I start my stop watch when I start my dive to 110’ and when I hit 16mins at 110’ I start up my bottom time is 16 minutes? Therefore the dive is within nodeco limits and I only...

Let’s say I take 10 minutes to get to 110 feet. Then I spend 12 minutes at 110 and I take 10 minutes to get back to the surface. What is my bottom time?

I have a job coming up requiring some dive work at 350’. This is way deeper then my experience level would permit. How much bottom time is realistic for the dive team? How long would the Deco be? What support would be needed on the surface ship? How much surface interval between dives?

Sorry about the strange formatting but the board doesn’t do an outline very well. Man was this a tough one. He is my take on it. Take three groups of four: A, B, and C. Weigh group A against group B 1. If group A = group B the counterfeit is in group C. Take 3xC and weigh it...

The Conterfeit Coin WEIGHING ONE Weigh three coins against three coins with six standing by not being weighed. If the weighing produces uneven results you know that the six coins not weighed are non counterfeit. WEIGHING TWO You then take the three coins that weighed heavy and weigh...

This stuff is way cool!

I see alot of you video shooters are pretty serious. What kinds of projects are you shooting?

I saw Jacque Cousteau’s “Silent World” and that combined with “Sea Hunt” and “Thunderball” 1965 had me hooked.

Christmas is a great time because you can get the classes at a good discount. Then you will be ready for summer.

I usually prefer to dive steel tanks.

Ouch. I guess I am the only one that likes the show. I think the leads are believable and the monsters intriguing. It’s fun to have a show with some, albeit not enough, diving in it. It has the feel of some of those scifi shows from the 60’s. Particularly “20 Million Miles...
