Ok, Who wants to talk to a TOTAL beginner?
I'm interested in learning about archery as a hobby. I used to target shoot with pistols, but it lost it's appeal. I am interested in the physical aspects of archery- breathing, concetration, etc. I think it's almost meditative.
I've got one gun left- a nice old Mossberg 500 that I'm seriously considering trading in at the local pawn shop for one of the bows I saw there. BUT, they only have compound bows.
If I tried to start with that, would I hate life?
What do beginnners typically start with?
What are the merits of Recurve vs other types?
What kind of things should I look for in buying a bow?
I'm 6'4", have long reach and pretty strong. What's a good weight to work with? What about strings & arrows? Cost, durability, etc.
There's an archery range that I'm probably going to go check out on Saturday and ask questions, but I want to get as many sources of info as possible.
I'm open to any advice.
Bilbo, you should check out http://www.huntersfriend.com/bowselection.htm
to tell you all you need to know about bows. I'm open to all your questions. Just PM me and I'll see if I can help. As for your bow weight question, I would look for an archery shop in your area to test out bows before you decide on one.
help a beginner
my advice would be to go to a pro shop that has a various amount of recurves to choose from. if recurves are what you want? ask the shop to let you shoot as many as you can. dont let a sales staff sell you on a particular bow cause of brand name or its price. after you shoot a few. you will be able to feel out the one you like the best. then see if you can afford it. its better to save money for a bow you like. if funds arent there. than buy a bow you dont like cause its in your price range. just some info. for ya!!!
GOOD LUCK!!!!!I would like to thank all my sponsers:Alpine Archery Pro Staff, Tru-Ball Releases Staff , Hydronics Archery Pro Staff,Victory Arrows Staff, Bohning Archery , Vibra-Check , TP Scope Lenses Pro Staff, Mossy Oak Pro Staff....

hey Bilbo
Welcome to the sport.I have recently gotten into archery and have gone through what you are about to go through.Good advise above,hunters friend is one of the best information resources.I started out with recurve but soon realized compound was for me.My first compound was an inexpensive Browning which I became quite good with but you now how it is,after a year I wanted something better.This is were things start getting expensive,but by the time I was ready to move up I had a lot more knowlege and archery friends to help with choses.Anyways 2500.00 later I am all set(better shooting through aggresive spending) My best advise is to not sweat about the best strings,arrow rests etc.untill later and to hook-up with a good local pro shop.Oh and also tell us what bow the pawn shop is selling.It might be a dog or a good one but I'd be real careful buying a compound bow any where but a pro shop.
regards heavy dart.

Hey Bilbo,
There are alot of us that can probalby be considered biginners here, and good for us, there are alot of people here that are more than willing to give us great information. I've been shooting a compound bow for a couple of years now, and just recently bought my own bow this year. (was using a friends that had the same draw length I have) Cost is the biggest part, but you can get started without breaking the bank. I agree with everyone when they say find a good pro shop, they are really helpful, and can answer any questions you may have. I got started with around $500.00 fully set up, arrows and all, it was actually less, but i went back and got a better stabalizer, and a quiver. There is an endless array of equiptment out there. Get the set up your most comfortable with, and get out on the range! Practice makes perfect! Good shooting!

Find a good pro shop, this is the best advice given bar none.
I just purchased my first bow today. I found what appears to be a great pro shop, and the staff was awesome. I ended up buying a used custom compound bow for $250.00 and ended up spending just over $500.00 for accessories, and arrows.
Joel (the local pro) showed me a good variety of bows, and let me fire four before I chose my bow, and as soon as the bow is tuned up, and accessorised, he will teach me aiming, and proper care of my new bow.

During muster, all troops in a company were called together for inspection and roll call. At each muster, officers created a muster card for every soldier, listing his status at the time -- present, absent, hospitalized, on medical furlough, or missing or killed in action. Soldiers were periodically paid at muster, which also was noted on the card.
In the Confederate army, each soldier's muster card was placed in an envelope with all his muster documents. The envelope was labeled with the muster roll number, and the soldier's rank at enlistment and at the end of his service. Any medical cards or personal papers inside were noted, as well.

After you put it on a wall chop it up with an exacto knive so that when someone goes to peal it off they can only pull off a little piece at a time.

but you could try spraying some clearcoat over top
who the fuck has time to do all this stuf? wheat paste over sticker? cut them up? put a clear coat over?
for fucks sake its a sticker who gives a shit
^thats what i was thinking, its only a sticker.
hey jacktard if you make a nice sticker and want it to stay taking 5 seconds to spray over with clearcoat isnt that unheard of. way to think it through though

Excelent facilities, particularly the gym. Good restaurant as well. Very helpful staff. Great city centre location The outside looks little sad, but once inside is fine
Rooms were clean and neat Was told that there was a airport shuttle....not Check in was @ late! Got into room @ 5. Had to put luggage into closet by front desk while we walked around downtown, waiting for a phone call from them stating that our room was ready. We were not the only ones either. Was told that our stay included the breakfast, found out after we had already had eaten....
So close to the Salt Palace convention center. Beds were comfortable. Rooms were smaller than expected, with no microwave.
Accommodations were comfortable, inviting, and very convenient to Salt Palace convention center. Staff was wonderful. Service at restaurant was slow and sometimes absent. Disappointing, because the food was excellent.
Very good central location, the motorized bed system to get a better confort was astonishing.
Clean place with friendly staff. They even threw in a free breakfast with our stay. It was also an easy walk to the mall. The room had cool art but, the heater was very loud. Something wrong with the fan. Also no bathroom fan oddly enough.
The hotel met my needs and the location was perfect. The hotel staff was great and the parking was excellent. I would expect the Radisson to be a very nice hotel. The SLC Radisson was not a very nice hotel. The room was just an average room with sub standard furniture requiring replacement. I had a better room at a two star hotel. I don't think the hotel should have charged to park at the hotel ($24.00 for two days was excessive).
Clean but with a definite 'run down' feeling, operated on a shoe string and it shows..convenient to convention center if there is no other choice.Personel is friendly and helpful, doing the best they can .. Noisy air conditioning and fan blowing in your face at the desk...sleep number bed a disappointment..TV set far from its prime...dinner quality worth forgetting at best..
great downtown location, close to it all would have liked a fridge in the room, other then that wonderful
Love the location, very close to Salt Palace. The pool area was also nice. Not worth the price for anything other than location. Bathroom was pretty dirty, the room was nothing special. Our mini fridge was leaking when we checked in and the floor was wet. They sent a new one right up which was great. I wish the floor elevators went straight to the parking garage. It was mediocre for my expectation of a 4 star hotel.
Breakfast buffet was quick and very good for this kind of meal. Waitperson was very polite and helpful. Clerks at reception desk also were great.
Clean, great location You are required to pay a $15 parking fee per day to use the only parking structure available on the premises.
Bed was awful. Lobby was stark and uninviting.
this is one of the best hotels in SLC, the location, amenities and friendliness of staff is outstanding
Bed was very comfy and big for me, my wife and out 7 month old little boy. Staff was nice and helpful. Had a great view from the 9th floor. Location was awesome. For a last minute trip, this place a gold to stay at. The bathroom was small, I have stayed at cheaper places with bigger bathrooms. Breakfast was over priced. It was cheaper for my family to go else where for food.
Bed was comfy...perfect for two. City view at night was amazing. Originally paid for the high rise but they tried to put me on the third floor. Desk worker Sage was very kind and helpful in getting us into a more appropriate room on the 14th floor. Small bathroom....small bathtub. Very few options for "gift store." 7 dollars for a bowl of cereal!!
The location was great. $15.00 for parking and no free wifi.

I feel we should all have a huge meeting and burn a couple boards as a sacrifice to the wave gods. Whoes in? Then mabye we can get something good late August!
how about we just get like 12 people and all move to california and split a ****ty appartment for the rest of our lives... shouldnt be that much money every month. then we can leave our suicidal thoughts in jersey alongside with this miserable flatspell....
P.S. I started this as a joke but as i kept typing I realized what an awesome idea it is. any takerss??
There used to be ski sacrifices in VT for big snow seasons until the tree huggers got all environmental about it....I'd hope that any boards sacrificed weren't restorable...then it would be MURDER
On a second note.....idsmashh....I'm at that point in my life where I'm tired of wasting days (Mid-Life???)....I think its a great idea to go...I think I'd even consider HI..
It's good luck to eat the minnows that jump up on your board, it keeps the sharks away, and brings waves.
but seriously...who gets suicidal over flat spells, esp. in the middle of summer? it's to be expected. waves at this time of year are a pleasant surprise! do i get bummed out? yea, of course. that's why i'm usually in a foreign country at this time of year. funds didn't happen this year for that (other priorities this year), so i'm stuck here. but i've got other things & interests to keep my mind off it. in fact, i just got home from a day off wheeling in my jeep at wharton state forest. tons o' fun!
point being: surf when there's waves, do other stuff when there isn't.
i don't even know how to surf anymore
i guess were gonna start talking about jacked cars now lol. well my passion now besides surfing is working on restoring my 68 mustang. It can do wheelies just like your jeep njsurfer42 hahaha
Posiden is angry with us. Sacrifice Snookie

Did Chris Brown get violent in rehab?
Listen to Chris Brown on iHeartRadio
(TMZ) - Chris Brown went into a VIOLENT RAGE while in rehab earlier this month for his anger issues ... throwing objects and breaking them, reports TMZ.
TMZ reports the D.A. will use this and other incidents later today in court to make the case that he belongs in jail ... NOW.
TMZ is told the rehab facility wanted him OUT after the incident ... and that's why he bailed after only 2 weeks.
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... the L.A. County Probation Dept. is submitting information to the judge today about the incident, along with the criminal assault charge in Washington, D.C. TMZ reports the Probation Dept will ask the judge to order Chris into a live-in anger management program for a period of months.
Sources tell TMZ the D.A. isn't as forgiving and will ask the judge during today's progress hearing in the Rihanna beating case to revoke his probation and send him to jail - as early as today.

A few at the top of the economic ladder came to North America just as their poorer countrymen did, but most immigrants left Scotland for economic reasons. A few left for religious reasons, such as Scottish Quakers who left in the 1680s to avoid persecution. These Quakers came to east New Jersey and the Delaware Valley. At the same time, a group of Scottish Presbyterians tried to establish a Presbyterian colony in South Carolina. Sometimes there were both religious and economic motives. Furthermore, some of your immigrant ancestors did not come by choice: Many Scots came as prisoners under Oliver Cromwell, or as a result of the Jacobite rebellions of 1715 and 1745. Sometimes Scottish prisons were cleared and convicts shipped to the American colonies. Occasionally women and children were even kidnapped to serve as colonial laborers.
Some Scots in the British Army chose to stay in the Mohawk Valley area as landowners rather than return to Scotland following the French and Indian War. They later brought their families from Scotland. Whatever the reason for leaving Scotland, all immigrants left the only lives they had known and came to their new countries with hope for a brighter future.

Allingham joins BC Baseball Staff as Assistant CoachJune 17, 2010
Walsh and Williams will help with the BC program
Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College Athletic Department and Head Baseball Coach Matthew McCay is pleased to announce the hiring of Kevin Allingham to fill the vacant position of Assistant Coach of the Brevard College Baseball program and welcomes the addition of Sean Walsh and Seth Williams as the duo will volunteer to help with the program.
Coach Allingham will help out the Brevard College baseball program and Coach McCay by serving as the recruiting coordinator, pitching coach, scheduling director and will assist in summer placement and grounds management. Coach Allingham will also serve as the Tornados Head JV Baseball Coach.
"Coach Allingham comes to our program with a passion and leadership that is unmatched. He will be instrumental in building our pitching staff and our recruiting base to the standards of a top-notch baseball program," commented Coach McCay.
Coach Allingham comes to the Tornados, having served as an assistant baseball coach at Methodist University in Fayetteville, N.C. since 2002, where he was the Head JV Coach, while also serving as the pitching coach and coordinating recruiting efforts for the Monarchs. He also assisted the head coach with administrative duties, travel, all phases of camps.
Prior to Methodist, Coach Allingham served as the baseball administrative assistant from 2001-2002 at Virginia Commonwealth University where he organized and promoted camps, assisted with travel coordination, organized scouting and game charts and completed NCAA compliance paperwork.
Coach Allingham also spent four years at Catawba College as a baseball undergraduate assistant coach from 1997-2001 where he coached first base, helped design and run practice and worked with the outfielders. Allingham also helped the Indians by soliciting meal and game sponsors, scheduling games, recruiting, organizing scouting charts and designing and administering strength and conditioning programs.
"I am just ecstatic to announce Coach Allingham's hiring," said Coach McCay. "His knowledge and personality will have a huge impact on our baseball program, Brevard College and the Brevard community."
Coach Walsh will help out the Brevard College baseball program and Coach McCay by primarily serving as the hitting coach in helping to direct the team offense. Coach Walsh will also be in charge of the infield defense, while managing team defensive positioning.
"Coach Walsh comes to Brevard after an outstanding collegiate and professional career," commented Coach McCay. "He brings a very in-depth knowledge of the game as he has been very successful at every level of baseball."
Prior to coming to Brevard, Coach Walsh served as the Head Baseball Coach of the Carolina Naturals based in Durham, N.C. where he coached high school players aspiring to play college baseball with a focus on skill development.
Walsh worked from 2007-2008 with M.V.P. Baseball in Raleigh, N.C., serving as Assistant Baseball Coach where he coached the Showcase team, working primarily with players on hitting and fielding.
Before his coaching career, Walsh was drafted in the 47th round of the 2001 Major League Baseball draft by the Philadelphia Phillies and spent four years in the Phillies program playing in the minor leagues from levels of Low-A to Double A, where he spent time on the field as an infielder, outfielder and catcher. Walsh was also named the Organizational Player of the Month for June of 2003.
"Coach Walsh's addition to the staff is imperative to us being a good defensive and offensive team in the future," said Coach McCay. "I am very excited to see he things that our players will learn from him and see their improvements due to his efforts."
Coach Williams will help out the Brevard College baseball program and Coach McCay by serving as the Director of Strength and Conditioning for the program. He will also be in charge of outfield play and positioning, offensive instruction, base-running and summer placement.
"Coach Williams will bring a level of professionalism to our program that will be a huge asset," commented Coach McCay. "He knows the area so well since his stellar high school career at North Henderson and understands the things to teach our players to help each guy take that next step in his career."
Coach Williams spent the past three years playing in the New York Mets organization, having been drafted by the Mets in June of 2008. Williams played for the Kingsport Mets Rookie League and Brooklyn Cyclones Class A teams in 2008 and played for the St. Lucie Mets in the Florida State League Advanced A League in 2009 and the Spring of 2010, before being called up to play for the Binghamton Mets AA team in 2010.
Prior to his professional baseball career, Coach Williams was a four-year letter winner at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, being named a Freshman All-American, while setting the new freshman home run record with 13 home runs. Coach Williams was also a member of the UNC Regional and Super Regional Champions in 2006, 2007 and 2008 and was a college World Series Finalist in 2006 and 2007. He also received a number of honors based on his statistics throughout his storied collegiate career, as well as summer baseball league play.
"I have known Coach Williams for several years since he was at North Carolina," said Coach McCay. "I am very happy to have him joining the staff. He will help make our program better immediately."
The 2010 Brevard College baseball team went 9-35 in their second season as full members of the NCAA Division II and the South Atlantic Conference.

Accused murderer Robert Xie was motivated by sex, money and "loss of face" when he crept into his brother-in-law's Sydney home and killed five members of the Lin family, the crown says.
But his defence has questioned the "three-pronged motive", telling the jury that it might show the "difficulty in finding a motive to kill five people".
In the year before Xie is alleged to have carried out the 2009 killings at North Epping, crown prosecutor Mark Tedeschi QC told his Supreme Court trial on Wednesday that the 50-year-old had been engaged in "inappropriate sexual behaviour" toward a young female relative.
"The sexual conduct included rubbing up and down the sides of her body for more than 30 seconds whilst he was breathing deeply," Mr Tedeschi said.
This sexual desire for the relative, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was one of three motivations that the crown alleges drove Xie to go to his brother-in-law's home in the early hours of July 18, 2009.
Using a `hammer-like weapon', Xie is accused of killing Min Lin, 45, his wife Lily Lin, 44, their sons Henry, 12, and Terry, 9, and Mrs Lin's sister, Irene Lin, 39.
He has pleaded not guilty.
After the murders, Mr Tedeschi said that Xie's behaviour towards the young female escalated.
He allegedly began sexually abusing her regularly, including instances of digital penetration.
Xie's "desire" was "so great" that he continued to assault her despite the risk of detection, he said.
Mr Tedeschi alleged that Xie was also driven by a "loss of face" to carry out the crime.
He said Xie had complained about how his wife Kathy's parents compared him unfavourably with his brother-in-law Min, whom they considered hard working and a good investor.
After the murders, Mr Tedeschi alleged Xie had gone to "great lengths" to gain control of Min's assets, which included the newsagency, their North Epping home and a commercial unit.
But Xie's barrister Graham Turnbull SC told the jury that the "three-pronged motive" put forward by the crown "might indicate the difficulty in finding a motive to kill five people".
He questioned the reliability of the sexual assault claims and said it was up to the jury to decide whether such an alleged motive could underpin the murder of five people.
"This is not a trial about any sexual offending, it is a trial about murder," Mr Turnbull said.
Xie, he added was also financially secure, having built substantial savings from his investments and the sale of his restaurant business in Melbourne in 2005.
"At the end of the day the accused can't fear the evidence if it is looked at in its totality," Mr Turnbull said.
The trial continues.

Five Things To Look For In The Coming Year In Healthcare/Life Sciences
Mohr Davidow's Sue Siegel shares promising areas for healthcare and life sciences investments in in 2011 in this contributed article for Xconomy.
Data‐Driven Healthcare.
In 2011 and into this next decade, the rate of data generation from biological measurement will continue to accelerate. Making sense of this deluge of data from sources as disparate as electronic medical records, biometric sensors, population statistics, environmental factors, and genomics will be the interesting part! Nimble start‐ups that can aggregate and analyze these data will create tremendous value and advances in human health without the capital intensity of traditional healthcare companies.

Blast from the Past: The Spice Girls Are Back for the Olympics
The Olympics have reunited the nineties girl group we're still obsessing over.
-Diana Denza
Pull out your old stash of Spice Girls memorabilia, ladies, because the gals are back! Proving that a good marketing ploy friendship never ends, the girl power group of the nineties is slated to perform at the Olympic Closing Ceremony in August. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that they're in it for the long haul, but we're still keeping our fingers crossed.
According to the Telegraph, Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice), Emma Bunton (Baby Spice), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty Spice), Melanie Brown (Scary Spice), and Victoria Beckham (Posh Spice) will take the stage after the games conclude on August 12, 2012. Along with George Michael, The Who, Take That, and Jessie J, they'll serenade the crowd with two of their biggest hits.
Hint: The UK news outlet mentioned that it might just be "Wannabe." We don't know about you, but the mere possibility has us reminiscing about days gone by spent dressing up as Baby Spice and belting out tunes into a homemade cardboard microphone.
Read 9 Reasons We Love Birthday Girl Helen Mirren
Didn't think it could get any better? It does (really!). Apparently, certain sources have told reporters that Halliwell will strut around stage in the Union Jack dress she donned at the 1997 Brit Awards. The barely-there mini dress has been a fan favorite ever since – just ask Google.
This is one reunion we'd slip on our platform boots for. Now who wants to fund our trip to London?

Kris Jenner Is A Sh-tty Mom: Exhibit 2,476
Here's 16-year-old Kendall Jenner posing for bikini photos/continuing her immediate path to the dark side as Kris Jenner has foreseen. For it was Kris who allowed the Alliance to know the location of the shield generator. It was Kris who said, "Oh, I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive – which is why you have to make a sex tape on your 18th birthday, young lady." All has transpired according to her design except, in her defense, those movies where she fights Yoda and basically molests Hayden Christensen even though you don't see it. The subtext is there.

Collaboration With Xamarin and Service2Media to Enable Millions of Mobile App Developers Worldwide to Create Rich Mobile Applications With SAP® Mobile Platform
Bolstering its commitment to an open partner and developer ecosystem, SAP America, Inc., a subsidiary of SAP AG (NYSE: SAP), today announced it is collaborating with Xamarin and Service2Media to provide developers with mobile app development frameworks that can efficiently and cost-effectively enable development on the company's market-leading* SAP® Mobile Platform. These mobile development environments are intended to allow enterprises to rapidly build rich and personalized mobile apps for iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices from a single code-base. With built-in support for SAP Mobile Platform, businesses will gain easy, more secure access to on-premise and cloud-based data and processes from Xamarin and Service2Media's leading mobile development frameworks. The announcement was made at Mobile World Congress 2014, being held February 24-27 in Barcelona, Spain.
It is estimated that there are more than 1.2 billion people accessing the Web from their mobile devices and 80 percent of mobile time is spent inside mobile apps.** This dramatic shift in mobile usage behavior is driving a massive increase in mobile workers that require widespread development of rich, easy-to-use mobile apps that are capable of accessing relevant information and enterprise processes via mobile devices.
Xamarin Extends SAP Mobile Platform and Applications to Vast Developer Community
With an extensive developer community representing more than 500,000 developers in 111 countries and a network of more than 150 consulting partners globally, Xamarin provides enterprises with the ability to rapidly build rich native mobile apps for iOS, Android and Windows 8 entirely from Microsoft's Visual Studio environment. This powerful, unique approach to mobile app development will now be extended by this new relationship with an enterprise-grade software developers kit (SDK) that will allow direct access to the on-premise and cloud versions of SAP Mobile Platform.
"Xamarin is the development platform of choice for mobile developers who create high-performance enterprise mobile applications," said Nat Friedman, CEO and co-founder, Xamarin. "We anticipate that our collaboration with SAP will make it significantly easier for developers to create rich compelling mobile applications that can leverage enterprise data and processes made available by SAP Mobile Platform."
"Microsoft has been working closely with both SAP and Xamarin, and we see this support for SAP Mobile Platform APIs as a benefit for the Microsoft developer community," said S.Somasegar, corporate vice president, Developer Division, Microsoft Corporation. "The ability to build enterprise-class applications across all major device platforms from within Visual Studio will help reduce the time and cost of mobile app development for developers working in a heterogeneous environment."
Initially, Xamarin and SAP will focus on the following initiatives:

Either ubuntu or debian would be ok to use.
loading all the tools from bt to another distro would really not be worth your time, nor would it be that easy to do. It may even be impossible.?
As for learning it looks like you are one the right track.
Some pointers to help keep you moving would be to get more comfortable with the command line, making, renaming, copying, and deleting files etc.
Also start looking at the logs and what the info in them contain and mean.
generally @ /var/logs/ or so.
Vi is a good editor, little steeper maybe on the learning curve than say nano but its pretty universal.
Hope that helps out a bit, good luck

@archangel: I actually started with emacs, then moved to pico --> nano over the years. I can use vi, I just can't stand the UI on it. I only use it when on a *nix distro that has nothing else. Maybe my bias from originally using DOS editor for so many years? our of all my *nix associates, they are surprised that I am the only one that does not use vi. And yes, I agree, it is a Chevy vs Ford debate.
As you first become familiar with Linux, I suggest (as others have noted) that you learn a single distro - Ubuntu is great for this - and stick with a single editor. Go with vi if you want the best long term results. (I personally *DETEST* vi, but I can use it when forced to, and this is what most Linux users use.) One of the things that you will want to master early is the bash shell. You want to become proficient on the command line as this is where *nix is really powerful.
Once you have the basics fully nailed down, you will find that you can start branching out to almost any other version of Linux, and as you have Mac OS, you can also get some good experience with BSD Unix as well! The Mac OS X bash shell is a great environment, (I am typing this on an iMac). If you learn BSD Unix, and System V Unix, you will be able to master every form of Unix out there with ease.
So, you have a long journey ahead of you, but you are doing the right things, and I applaud you for that. I only wish more new posters were of the same mind as yourself.
I personally use vim for everything but like archangel.amael said its like chevy vs. ford so who cares. I do however firmly belive that being proficiant in a vi editor is mandatory and almost a small rite of passage for Linux users. Years ago I only used nano before I discovered how powerful vim was untill one day I found my self in a situation where I was "Cracking the Perimeter" and my only access was a openwrt wireless router with only one editor. yep you guessed it VI. Ever since that day I made it a mission to learn vi and ever since then I've been using vim (vi improved) for any one who doesn't know. Just my two cents.
Not that I'm any good with Linux yet, but I started with nano much like pureh@te. After taking a few Linux classes for my BS degree, however, I started using vi editor. I'll have to give vim a shot - thanks for the info!
Thanks for the encouragement guys, I really really appreciate it!
I'll keep on learning Linux and vi. I think it will do me good to repeat at least some of the sections of the VTC Linux Courses to really cement everything I've learned. I'm also reading up and going through a video course on networks in general and how the internet works.
So far, however, I've installed Debian 5.0 and managed to update the kernel to 2.6.29! Most of the stuff seems to be working now, so I can rest in peace and explore Linux as much as I want.
If I have any more difficulties I'll make a new post, because this one is going a bit off topic, but thanks a lot for all your help It is very much appreciated!

The Duke strikes
// April 11th, 2010 // Comments Off on The Duke strikes // Uncategorized
Occasionally from time to time, I don't have any good material to offer to the table! However, there are many great individuals around me capturing the moment so that those who are not here to breathe, immerse, and live the lifestyle that we live on a daily basis can see a glimmer into our snowglobe (or surf-globe)!
Bryan Elkus, an excellent photographer and a proud friend of mine captured this weekends chaos! No wind, but that didn't stop the Real team from pushing the stoke meter up a notch!
Brian "BCS" Smith went yard today, pulling out all the stops and going huge on "The Duke" today! So big, he nearly injured himself to pieces. Luckily, in the long run, BCS has been deemed good and will potentially be sore the next few days.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
This hotel was wonderful. The staff were lovely. The actual place spotless. new and beautiful. For the first time ever, I could sleep properly without all the usual "hotel noises" in the morning! Thanks It's location. Although the beach is very near, the actual place is quite "asleep" this time of year.
central to where i needed to be, decor through out the hotel is one of the best i have stayed in.
Situation was excellent. Hotel new and clean. We hd to change rooms twice - Faulty air conditioning in first room and inoperable safe in second room - no maintenance people available to sort either problem. Third room was OK!
Fantastic double bed. Lovely bathroom Lack of tea/coffee making facilities
Lovely large room and bathroom with good colour scheme, comfortable beds and centrally located - ideal for a short winter break at a very good price. For a large hotel, certainly one of the best hotels we have stayed in. Also has free secure parking underground. Nothing - but our guess is the location might be noisy at night, being above bars and overlooking a plaza, in the busy summer months. But we stayed in November so it was very quiet.
Very friendly staff, beautiful spacious rooms, very nice breakfast. No complaints. No complaints.
Modern decor and excellent location
convenient location noise from the sqaure outside our room as there was no air conditioning, the room was very hot and stuffy with the windows shut and very nosiy with them open. No chairs for the balcony, no mirrors in the bedroom, only the bathroom, the hotel did not provide a box of tissues for the room
Customer service and design
We liked the tranquility, very relaxing, excellent service.
location pool very cold
Location beside sea Children being allowed to play at all times of night especially around poolside area. During the day they dive bombed all areas of pool including jacuzzi and were not prohibited from doing so, therefore other adults were unable to use.. I felt that this was a danger to the children.Our bedroom overlooked pool and we could not sleep until it was quieter around 12.00. Did not realise it was such a family oriented hotel with lots of children.
The Hotel was very clean and the guest bedrooms were well appointed, spaceous and modern.
Excellent size room
Location and price. Excellent value. We were give a 2 bedroom apartment, but the kitchen had no equipment except for a fridge and microwave. Murcia Tourist Regulations don't allow kitchens in this complex.
the choice of food available at breakfast and dinner - prices of drinks were very reasonable
The location of the hotel is very near to San Xavier airport which can be viewed as good or bad. It is easy to get too and is very close to the beach. The hotel as only recently opened so the amenities are new and modern. The break fast was a bit of a free for all and the waiting time at reception can be anything upto 20 minutes if there are guesta checking in. There is no concierge to refer to for local information.
Proximity to bars, shops and restaurants Drawers and wardrobe very poor
Being so near the beach
Thalasso centre was free to use as guests of the hotel. The staff very helpful and food was great. I felt relaxed. Good experiance we will stay again. The fact that I could not make a hot drink during the night which I do every night.
The food, both restaurant and breakfast, was absolutely superb! Lovely view from the room/balcony, and excellent facilities available at the spa etc, although I never had the time to sample them unfortunately. Very nice to have free car parking attached to the hotel,and direct access from there to you room via a lift. Great location too. Only wish I could have stayed longer.
This is a relatively new hotel and it is designed really well. There are plenty of roomy areas in teh reception/bar areas. There were quite a few people staying using the spa and they walked through the reception in their robes to get to the life which was not really ideal.
I liked the staff who without exception were so helpful and cheerful! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The restaurant provided first class food. The only slight criticism was that the coffee at breakfast came out of a machine. It would have been better if fresh coffee could have been provided as after all its the coffee that Spain is famous for!
the spa was superb, friendly staff ensured the experience was fulfilled. the staff were happy with my guide book spanish!
Fitness and health centre It was a large corporate hotel not a place to go for two weeks, no entertainment although there was a piano there. Opposite a sewerage plant and a busy main road, smell wasnt good on occasions. Swimming pool outside was in shade so cold and traffic noise not acceptable. Most of the staff did not speak English apart from reception.No trips or tours could be organised.No English newspapers available.
Location and newness of facilities Yes - They did not have air conidtioning on during the night and even in January it was hot and stuffy at night and difficult to sleep. Door to balcony could not be left open because it was very noisy, either from other guests or the road at the front of the hotel
swimming pool Food in the restuarant was not particularly good.
The rooms were spacious and very clean. The bathrooms were great with plenty of towels and toiletries, the shower was very good. The Room Service food was terrible.
The hotel was very clean and staff were very helpful it was very convenient for where we wanted to be
Rooms of apartment were sparsely decorated. They could have benefitted from more pictures and some ornaments. As a result, apartment had a very 'cold' feel, although physically warm from the central heating.
The friendliness of the staff / the food at the club house / the golf coarse is excellent.
Location and food in clubhouse both excellent,
Good location, comfortable, all mod cons, nice pool and gardens, easy reach of shops. Nada.
We didn's have any hot water
it was really good,and value for money. Apartment very nice.
The apartment was very nice In a remote location with nothing nearby, and not all the facilities mentioned were available
It's location to the airport and speed of check in service
Club house, playground for kids and the security Would be nice to have DVD player in the room for kids to watch DVD's.
Ours was a two bed Appartment. It was ideally located, clean, warm and very comfortable. Beatrice in reception was excellent and a great help. Flowerbeds bordering the car parking spaces ---not good planning --- inclined to become muddy and cause problems.
Swimming pool was lovely and big. Plenty of space in the hotel versus number of rooms so don't feel crowded. Rooms were well decorated to a high standard. Concierge very attentive on arrival. Lovely terraces and viewing points around the hotel. Breakfast very good. Main restaurants closed on Sunday evening
Total relaxation with an amazing spa
There was no children! It was nice and quiet. we came for a break away from our own mini terrorists and that's exactly what we got. Luuurvely.
Comfort of the rooms. Breakfast. Wifi is not free
Was a very good hotel,service was great the location is the best on the area luxury all around, great experience thanks. only the internet conection but they tould me that the server was down, and no american tv channels but is only minimun other then that was very good..
The spa and the golf course.
A very comfortable room and excellent breakfast. Strange reception, rather dont sit down for the check in.
The big difference in a hotel is made by the staff....and this staff is wonderful !!! No other comments are needed......The room has everything you need, especially the best beds in the world. The music in the hallway is welcome and soothing. The breakfast and dinner in the restaurant are great. Everybody is making an effort to give you a good time and the marketing department is checking the service and your comments on that! What a wonderful experience....... It might be a bit out of the way, however, if you are looking for rest, the pool, the spa and golf, this is a great place to be. Also a very nice golf-bar: good atmosphere.
The room was excellent. The majority of staff seemed inexperienced / unprofessional, with the exception of reception staff who were definitely a cut above the rest.
Had a weekend at the Mar Menor Hotel and have to say it was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The food was Excellent, Service second to none and atmosphere just perfect. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.
Family run hotel, everyone was friendly and helpful despite language difficulties, would stay there again. Food wasnt that special but plenty of it, wasnt as hot as could have been
It was near to all amenities and the beach
The helpfulness of the staff and the availability of airport shuttle. Nothing
the overall impression is of a well run,clean hotel.the meals and service were very good.I will not hesitate to rebook the hotel when I return to Los Alcazares next year. nothing
The family atmosphere and excellent location All good
Cost of food and drink also staff No
Even though the staff did not speak much English, they did everything they could to make our stay pleasant and comfotable. the ornage juice int he morning was fresh and quite delicious.
good value very spanish friendly staff
staff helpful room cleaned daily location no
The staff were extremely helpful. The beds were very comfortable the room we stayed in was of a better standard than I would have expected from a 2 star hotel and the standard of cleanliness throughout the hotel could not be faulted. I have already told people at work how good it was and I will certainly be going back
very good value for the money swimming pool closed
Been in this hotel several times before. Friendly staff, good breakfast, nice rooms. No complaints.
bar men friendly and courteous cleaning ladies top marks reception staff very helpful definately go back again most importantly great value for money the weather
Experience staff that had a good understanding of the customers requirements and excellent english speaking skills
Relaxed efficeient staff Breakfasts Why serve poor hot food. It is not traditional and made not want to try the Michelin mentioned resturant.
We had a fantastic view and a massive balcony. One of the reception staff was very sullen and did not give a very good first impression of the hotel when we registered.
had a pool and snack bar by pool area this was very nice . the bar on roof top was open for only 2 evenings only during our stay. be better during summer to be open all time .it was central rooms were good but maybe not 4 star 3 would be more like. a couple we meet paid less than us and they had a suite! so there were bigger rooms would have been nice to have one. making more value for money. tea and coffee facilities in room would have been good
Nice clean and comfrtable hotel No
Staff willingness to help
Free Wifi in rooms shower attachment broken
The breakfast The appartment we had was very basic without any insulation. The sound from other apptms could be heard easily.
Availability of snacks,location of room,good choice of food, no smoking throughout hotel, cleanliness, helpful staff, quietness. Swimming pools could have been cleaner. Refrigerator only worked for 3 days out of 14.
friendly clean good facilities
Comfort & views over salt flats. A bit of a treck to the beach area in the heat
We enjoyed the outdoor pool which had sun loungers around it and a lovely ice cream booth/bar where you could get a nice cold beer for 1 euro! All the staff were really proffessional and we liked how the surrounding area was full of friendly locals!
More a 3 star, not a 4 star hotel. Buffet breakfast exellent for the price.
Near to the beach and bars. The room had air-con but the hot was switched off, we asked them if they could put it on as it was chilly in the room first and last thing , they said it would come on at 22.00hrs, but Spain being Spain it never did,This was false economy for them as we filled the bath and had a full hot bath to warm us up twice a day.
the entertainment for the children was excellent
close to everything we required for our stay it needs more english t v chanels
Friendly staff with some spoken English. Hotel is favoured by Spanish visitors. Comfortable stay near to Murcia airport.
Easy to locate but not very close to facilities for late supper etc if arriving late and restaurant is closed. N/A
Not a great deal, nothing near the hotel and no english channels on the satellite television! Location, location, location! Unless you have a vehicle this hotel is completely un-practical!
Interior design, space
Very good service - much appreciated being given dinner with a smile and warm welcome by the waiter on arrival even though it was nearly midnight
Friendly staff and a excellent restaurant
It was absolutely fine. Lovely situation, and the food was good.
staff were helpful and freindly,allthough renovation was taking place it caused us no inconvience there was no tea/coffee making facilitys in room but was allways allways available from bar
The hotel is nice and well-situated. Anyway, for that price is perfect choice. Unfortunately, the room was poorly sound-proofed.
Price and location
fantastic views from front of hotel and staff friendly and helpful rooms very basic and noisy neighbours
The staff were very helpful and friendly
Small but beautiful. Directly waterfront in great little village easy access to great food and drinks. A great value for waterfront with very good staff Kinda hard to find roads are not well marked but this isnt hotels fault
The price of the room for an excellant seaview No ramp to wheel luggage up to reception. I had to carry it up a flight of steps outside the hotel.
Excellent position across the road from the beach, very friendly and helpful staff, super room with beach view and balcony, very good value for money Minor problems - shower window didnt prevent water spashing over the bathroom floor, restaurant wasnt open (this was November though and end of season?)
Quiet, we were not disturbed. The weather and the view. Air conditioning if/when needed. I would have loved coffee making facilities in the room.
Superb location, excellent staff and easy to acces from Murcia airport Nothing

/usr/bin/pulseaudio use this.
Then logout and startx again. It will be working.
I recently upgraded my distro, installed amarok and gxine to watch videos on my BT 5R. For some reason, the videos play but there's no sound and I cant lip read for my life. I tried other formats such as mp3 as well - no dice. After doing some research online I changed the start up application (sound manager) from "/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1" to "start-pulseaudio-x11.," It didnt work! Every time I click on preferences a msgbox appears - "waiting for sound system to respond"image1.jpeg. I tried wireless logitech headphones and speakers but still hear deadair! I think it might be a codec or configuration issue. any ideas?
/usr/bin/pulseaudio use this.
Then logout and startx again. It will be working.
well, my advice is that first, before doing things taken from here and there that might get you confused, you try to see what is going on:
What type of sound card do you have?
What driver is kernel using?
Is the card supported by driver?
Is there a driver from vendor in case the open driver is not working correctly?
And then you start to work around that info..Don't just go doing things that will not help...
Try that and see what is going on..
cat /proc/asound/cards
--- no soundcards ---
03:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23887/8 PCIe Broadcast Audio and Video Decoder with 3D Comb (rev 0f)
how can I check the driver the kernel's using?
lspci | grep -i sound
didn't return any results.
on the other hand...

so it looks like its cx23885...
Ok..let's see, I've been reading about that driver and it seems to have problems with kernels <3.5...So from here, we can do 2 things:
1. Look for the /run folder, back it up, then erase it and reboot...If something goes wrong, we can fix it renaming the backup as "run"...
2. Used pulseaudio as stated by Flost. I do not know if it will work..
Try it and see...If I were you, I would go with the option 1 and then try the 2..But you have 2 options.
I have the same problem...everything is working fine in backtrack 5 R3 except the sound driver. I have installed jockey to auto find the hardware but still it is not giving me the sound driver. when i type the command "lshw" it is showing me Hudson Azalia Controller sound driver. I am not able to listen the video lectures. Please help me. thank you..
Ok. I searched my entire HD for a run folder. It doesn't exist. How can I install and switch to "pulseaudio" instead of the default installation?
the only run folder on my system is int the var directory. I cannot erase it using nautilus as apps in the directory are currently running. I can switch back the cmdline forcefully kill the processes/apps in memory and the erase it. But I don't see how that will fix my audio issue? It seems like this can be fixed with either an upgrade or a config tweak...any other suggestions? I can I switch to regular pulse audio?

In some cases, a person can be in a particular career and feel unsatisfied, or as if their potential is not being used to the full extent. It is possible that, with some focus on this issue, one can develop new career goals and feel more hopeful about their future, in terms of employment and career advancement. And, there are times that a person is having an underlying emotional issue, and that is affecting their career success; counseling and/or an evaluation can help to identify the issues.
