Get Slack
Slackware is the most venerable of Linux distributions, loved and trusted by hordes of users, sysadmins and programmers around the world for its solidity and closeness to the ground. Slackware comes from an earlier time when Linux users were almost exclusively hackers who walked the command line without fear or prejudice, scorned the world of point and click, and never went out overdressed.
Not that Slack is behind the times - a Slack user can sit behind the same GUI as any SUSE, Ubuntu or Fedora user. Just that Slack comes from a different tradition where the virtues are simplicity, straightforwardness, and lack of bloat. The asset most valued by the Slack user, and most often claimed for Slackware Linux, is system stability.
Slackware is often perceived to be behind the times, because it doesn't necessarily come with the latest and greatest version of every piece of software, which is a deliberate policy of Patrick Volkerding, the one and only maintainer of Slackware Linux, who prefers to include only software that is proven to be mature and stable.
In contrast, most other distributions adhere to the release early, release often, 'bleeding edge' philosophy that has been a feature of many GNU/Linux and other free software projects since the earliest days.
The stripped-down cleanliness of Slackware Linux may explain why there is still a vast user base of loyal and trusting Slack users, despite its lack of apparent commercial appeal. Other distributions may come with a greater range of options - three different database servers, four different music players, five different browsers - but Slackware Linux comes with all the tools that are essential to run a clean system in a production environment, as a server or as a development platform. You don't need the latest and greatest music software to run Apache or Samba. In the world of Slackware less is often more.
A corollary of the perception that Slackware is behind the times, is the much travelled legend that Slackware is hard to use, and not to be touched by first time users. True, Slackware doesn't have a picturesque, simple-choice, resource-hogging GUI installer, but many people would argue that, for all that, Slackware is just as easy to install, that the installer has more clarity than most, is more flexible, and that it is easier to customise a Slackware installation for the precise requirements of more advanced users and system administrators.
The Slackware user would claim that other distributions will install superfluous packages and tools that have to be removed after the installation is complete. What is more, Slackware, more than most other Linux distributions, has a feel that is similar to a commercial Unix, and feels like home to the experienced Unix user, in installation and in practice.
Slackware was the first of the Linux distributions to be employed on a regular basis as an illicit backroom server, as Linux often was, sneaked into the server space under the noses of the management. From this perspective it is possible to claim that Slackware was the first commercial Linux, and for some years, was by far the most popular.
The Master of Slack
So why is Slackware called Slackware? Slackware, after all, is not the most obvious moniker to take Linux into the business world, (and who cared about that then?), however fetching it might have sounded to the odd mix of rebellious youth, technofreaks, and frustrated hackers who, as legend has it, contrived to bring Linux into the world.
At the time that Slackware first emerged as the logical replacement for the Software Landing Systems (SLS) Linux distribution, the satirical Church of the Subgenius, with its slogan "get slack", was still a popular source of humour on the college campuses of the US. Slackware can be taken as a a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Church of the Subgenius, and its charismatic leader, JR 'Bob' Dobbs, 'The Master of Slack', and as an assertion that Slackware was part of the zeitgeist of the youth of America. On the other hand, Volkerding, the true master of Slack, may just have liked the sound and feel of his unlikely choice of name, which is as good a reason as any for choosing a name that both catches the eye and is not easily forgotten.
But there is another story from way back there near the beginning of time, or more precisely, during the first days of January 1994, when Slackware was still in its infancy and GNU/Linux was very young, and Usenet was more or less respectable, a worried user named Garry nervously posted to comp.os.linux.misc that he had "just heard from a friend of mine that has just read a bunch of messages claiming that Slackware 1.1.1 was put together by 'Wiccas' (Satanists)."
"It doesn't help," he wrote, "that by default the three sample users created by the install program just happened to be named 'Satan, Gonzo, Snake-Pit.'"
Apple and Eve
In these days when Usenet is too often a home from home for kerb crawlers and spam traders, it is hard to remember that Usenet used to be fun. Garry's post sparked a classic Usenet debate - on RFC 666 compliance, sourcery and sorcery, the subliminal messages emitted by vi, of Kerberos and the hounds of hell, and of speculation that Pat Volkerding was L Ron Hubbard in disguise...
There were angry Wiccans and earnest, or not so earnest, searches for Satan in the source, and declarations of defiance from the friends of Patrick Volkerding: "I've met the maker of Slackware," one wrote, "and he wasn't wearing pentagrams or drinking blood. There are some hidden things in Slackware but they have nothing to do with Satanism..."
Another told the story of how Satan once tempted Eve with an Apple, and another declared that "the SunOS Pascal compiler came up with 'atan.S' once and the word 'sin' many times. This, for me, is conclusive proof that Sun Microsystems is a company founded on the unholy triptych of devil worship, virgin sacrifice, and proprietary operating systems."
At this time, of course, Slackware Linux was the ultimate in "cool", and in some circles this is still true. Prior to Slackware's emergence in 1993, SLS (Software Landing Systems) was the most established of Linux distributions. SLS had its critics. Ian Murdock, the founder of the Debian project told Linux Journal in 1994 that SLS was "possibly the most bug-ridden and badly maintained Linux distribution available; unfortunately, it is also quite possibly the most popular."
A similar dissatisfaction with SLS was the spur for Volkerding to begin his distribution, which was very different in character to Debian, with its thousands of contributors, who worked on a cooperative development model. Slackware, in contrast, was and is maintained by the efforts of one singular individual, Volkerding himself and, like FreeBSD, was sold on CD by Walnut Creek, and mirrored on FTP sites around the globe.
In an interview in the June 1994 issue of Linux Journal, Volkerding said: "It would be nice to make money from [Slackware], but not from selling the actual package", which can be taken as a declaration that Slackware was seen as a community project, rather than as a commercial enterprise.
As late as 1996, the majority of Linux servers were running Slackware, and it wasn't for another three or four years that Slackware's profile as the best known and most popular of Linux distributions was eclipsed by the success of Red Hat, Mandrake (later Mandriva), SuSE and other commercial distributions, some of which, notably Red Hat and SUSE, had originally evolved from Slackware distributions.
Without the commercial sponsorship and marketing hype available to its rivals, or the community involvement of Debian or Ubuntu, Slackware has disappeared off the radar of many Linux users, but the distribution is still alive and vibrant and, the afficianados will tell you, is the most stable and dependable of Linux distributions for low level server applications, with an enviable reputation for being secure and reliable, easier to configure on older and smaller computers, and with an independence and character all of its own, and all you have to do is get slack...

Great write up
Nice to see a well thought out write up of Slackware that doesn't focus on package management or what version of xorg is shipped. As a long time Slacker, I really enjoyed reading your piece.
Nice article
I really liked your article, maybe beacuse I have been a long and faihful slacker my self. But cudos again on the text. Have a good one!
A very nice intro to why slack is so great. I've always wanted to get a slack system going and this really motivates me.
Comrade Ringo Kamens
All too true
I originally learned to use Linux on Slackware because a friend of mine gave me the CD and didn't tell me there were any other "distributions". While it had a very steep learning curve for a begining user, i'm greatfull of all the knowledge I gained by having to actually *read* and *learn* about how to properly (and somewhat manually) configure the system to my specific needs, rather than having an installer just default everything for me.
It still is, and will always be my favorite distro. Their slogan should be "Get smart: get slack!"
"Vast User Base"
I like how every flavor of Linux claims this "vast user base" that is loyal and unswerving in its devotion. It makes me wonder about the definition of "vast."
I saw recently where Fedora--my personal flavor of choice--has only about 6% of Linux userdom. Six percent.
I'd hardly call that "vast," but then you consider that in real terms that's six percent of a small number to begin with.
I can only imagine how "vast" Slackware's user base must be.
No criticism intended, BTW. Just commenting on the use of language.
Re: "Vast user base"
OK you win. I don't know how that phrase crept in :)
But there was a time when if you met three other Linux users that seemed like a vast user base....
Richard Hillesley
Most excellent
Very nice article, great subject and well written. Could be that for the last 30 minutes or so I've been surfing digg and wading through the crap that somehow made it to the top, but I think its more that you write very well, did a good bit of research and used it appropriately. Even provided references! Good thing there isn't more articles like this, I might get spoiled and have to nuke from orbit the rest of the interwebs.
Thanks for the article, bookmarked your site because of it (in my geeky ways that is one of my largest signs of approval and appreciation).
Worked right out of the box, er, the book
Richard Hillesley's article covers Slackware nicely.
Slackware worked miraculously for me through the Slackware CD version included in Naba Barkakati's Linux Secrets, 1996 --- over ten years ago now! Book described at http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/121 and was out a couple of years after SLS turned into the Walnut Creek Software.
I used SLS and it did suck.
I used SLS and it did suck. I almost surely used one of the first slack distros and never really looked back. I ran redhat a long time (work) but it was always slack for me, and my OLD slack server was the one that was always there to run the show when the redhat machines were choking on dependencies or some other nonsense.
Back in the old days, some guy in the #linux channel had "NCSA Mosaic is GOD" as his /quit message. I say "Slack + screen" is God, screw X!
Thanks for the history. It
Thanks for the history. It gives me some dates for my past. I tried sls and it was impossible to get running. Then slackware came along. That was the first useful linux distribution I used. Then redhat for a while. It's been debian for a long time now though with its derivative Ubuntu creeping in. I also didn't realize Debian was that old.
Thanks for the history, it was an interesting read, and I learned a couple of things that I did not know.
I have been using Slackware, and I liked it some, it was nice. It is the Linux distribution I have used the most, I haven't used others so much.
The thing I don't like about Slackware is that it includes proprietary software. I am not sure it does this anymore, but atleast it did last time I tried it, which was a couple of years ago. Then it included freeware tools like "xv". :(
I also don't like that it have old software, because I want a modern operating system with fresh software.
'Mature and Stable'
A phrase used by another distrobution...Debian. What is seen in the eyes of Slack and Debian as 'Mature and Stable' is seen as 'out-of-date' and 'are the developers of this dead?'......not bashing the distro (well I am on Debian...haven't used slack enough to say for sure) but package management is what makes a distribution, in my opinion. Still a nice read! Anything to get he linux word out is a-okay in my book.
package management is the distro?
OK, maybe. You have to agree that Slackware is really unique then.
Now seriusly, in Slackware it is package *selection* that makes the distribution.
Slackware and Free-as-in-speech software
Yes, Slackware still comes with xv, Java(*), official trademarked Firefox binaries(**), an mp3 coder/encoder(***), and probably some other gratis-but-not-Free software. That doesn't mean you have to use them. All of the non-Free components are entirely optional and it's perfectly possible to have a 100% functional Free-as-in-speech Slackware system.
(*)Yes, Sun is going to open-source Java but I don't think they have, yet, and in any case, Slackware ships with a proprietary, closed-source version.
(**)At least Debian says these trademark restrictions make Firefox non-Free and they have renamed their custom-compiled Firefox to Iceweasel in their distro and derivatives, such as Knoppix.
(***)The mp3 format is patent-encumbered, so purely Free-as-in-speech distros cannot play mp3 files.
- Martijn Dekker, Groningen, Netherlands
Alternative reason for the name Slack
As someone who was using Linux when Slackware appeared on the scene, I recall reading that one of the reasons for choosing the name Slackware was that it was designed to pick the the slack left when the SLS methodology faltered. People were unhappy with SLS and it's slow response to community suggestions to make it better and Slackware appeared, compatible with SLS in many ways and picked up the slack. There may have been other reasons for picking the name such as you suggested, but I don't think they were the only ones.
As for the article, while I was once a Slack user, they lost me a long time ago. One of my major complaints was that for a while, there were major problems with quality control. Some things were just broken for multiple releases and while the tgz package format allowed for great flexibility, the lack of a good package management system with dependency tracking made it more difficult to maintain than other distributions.
Slackware has undoubtably improved since the last time I used it seriously. I'm sure that the good things that people say about it are true, but after struggling with trying to get it to work well in a production environment (over 200 servers running Dejanews), it left a bad taste in my mouth. In a small environment, Slackware is fine, but I couldn't even conceive of running it in a large environment like I work in now (over 8000 Linux servers just in the data center I work in). It would simply consume too much SA time wrangling with the "flexibility" that is the trademark of Slackware.
... small environment only ?
I run Slackware in a small environment (less than 20 computers in a SOHO), but even I know that setting up and running Slackware is almost a no-brainer.
For large environments (like your data center) as well as small environments (like mine), you set up a testbed machine to check upgrades. Once you get the testbed running like it should, it's a trivial matter to setup a tagfile on a central repository that defines what packages to upgrade via ftp/nfs with the automated scripting available in Slackware using a cron job.
Since I have a server running a pretty much stock Slackware v8.0 (only difference is a recompiled kernel to utilize the dual-cpu system) serving an environment that has Slackware v8.0 to latest (11.0) release (along with the boss's Apple Mac Mini), I can vouch for the stability of Slackware - right along with the differences between the different systems only needing minimal SA time. And, btw, I'm the only SA this business has (a brick and mortar retail store), so my time spent doing administration must be split between system time and customer service time - guess how much SA time I spend.
If you think only of the alternatives (like Red Hat Enterprise), then working with Slackware may seem to be harder to manage large enterprises - but that's because of the difference between how Slackware works and how Red Hat works - not in the difference in "flexibility" of Slackware vs. ease-of-use for (insert your setup distribution here).
Slackware tools
Nice article on Slackware! Have been a using Slackware since 1994. I have drifted to other distros briefly but always came back to Slackware. Most of my production data I will leave it on the Slackware system since I know I can rely on the distribution.
The only reason I drift to other distributions like Fedora, Gentoo (yuck) and Debian is for the SELinux support. I wish that Patrick and his angels will consider better SELinux support. There are some security purists like us for whom SELinux/RSBAC and similar types are important. Please don't ignore the users/admins in this security segment.
Viva Slackware!
Why the name slackware, why indeed!
He does his best to not do anything. Slack being the are not doing anything. As much as is possible he uses unmodified sources from the upstream. He dropped Gnome, because it required too much configuration. The absence of some new packages has to do with the fact that old ones work fine and the new ones need tweaked. Now before anyone thinks I am bashing Patrick, Slackware is always compared with RedHat, Debian and other "Major" distributions, these projects are invariably the results of thousands upon thousands of manhours of labor for their maintainers per year, but Patrick continues to maintain his project alone, and is counted among the big boys of Linux distributions. Further you'll see him singled out as the only distro maintainer that doesn't create support issues for upstream package maintainers by messing with their code and introducing bugs.
An Accurate Description of Slackware
I think this article and the comments that followed paint an accurate description of Slackware.
Although more of my computers run Debian these days for various good reasons, the workstation I use the most still runs Slackware. I am often amazed when it takes me less time to get a new application running on Slackware than it does with other distributions where I have to fight wars with their package and configuration managers to coax them into installing and configuring software properly.
Patrick makes good judgement calls on the list of software he thinks he can include in Slackware to provide a reliable OS. Unfortunately this list seems to be shrinking with time. Maybe I'm just getting too used to the 20,000+ software packages available in Debian.
PS: Slackware is a good distro for people who (like myself) choose to drive automobiles with manual transmissions. Most of the reasons are the same.
Great Story, I am along time
Great Story, I am along time slackware user/admin and I would love to see it more in Businesses. I would also like to see more people to try it and discover it's greatness. I don't know what else to say. I just love it and it will never disappear on my side.
get slack and keep slacking
Great Article
Refreshing to finally read a pice as others have said that does not deal with Slackware VS X_Distro.

Oracle® Database System Administration Guide
10g Release 1 (10.1) for IBM z/OS (OS/390)
Part No. B13526-01
This chapter introduces the Oracle Enterprise Manager Management Agent, and provides configuration information.
The following topics are included:
The Oracle Management Agent runs jobs and events sent by the Oracle Enterprise Manager and can start up and shut down a database. It can function regardless of the status of the network connection, and it can run even if the database is down. It enables the database abministrator to monitor and control a database from a central location on the network.
The Management Agent is controlled using a command in the z/OS UNIX System Services shell environment. Currently, it is the only component of Oracle Enterprise Manager that is implemented for Oracle Database for z/OS. For more information on the Management Agent, refer to the Oracle Enterprise Manager Book Set.
The Management Agent is installed with Oracle Database for z/OS. The Installer also configures most of the required parameters.
For the Management Agent to work correctly on z/OS, the following changes must be made to the system:
The Mangement Agent is a multi-threaded application which starts and stops numerous threads during its operation. The BPX parameter file needs to be altered and activated on your system, as follows:
BPX parameters are set in the SYS1.PARMLIB(BPX
The nmo executable needs to have its extended attributes set as follows:
extattr +p nmo)
This is because the executable uses the c function
__passwd to verify a user and password before attempting to execute a command on behalf of a user (for example, database shutdown and startup).
The ownership of the
em* executables in the
ORACLE_HOME/bin directory must be set to that of the user who will run the Management Agent.
To complete the configuration, the following three files need additional customization:
emd.properties file in the
sysman/ directory
This file contains the global variables for the Management Agent. For most installations, the following two parameters need to be modified:
This is the location of the Oracle Management Service where you want the Management Agent to register.
This is the location and port where you want the Management Agent to listen for communications from clients.
targets.xml file in the
This file contains the information about the local system and its database instances. It is in XML format and needs to be customized. Although the Management Agent attempts to configure this file, z/OS differences may not permit it to do so.
The following is a sample
targets.xml file:
<Targets AGENT_SEED="153361320"> <Target TYPE="oracle_emd" NAME="local_host:port" VERSION="1.0" <Target TYPE="host" NAME="local_host" VERSION="1.0"/> <Target TYPE="oracle_database" NAME="DB_sid" VERSION="1.0"> <Property NAME="MachineName" VALUE="local_host"/> <Property NAME="Port" VALUE="DB_port"/> <Property NAME="SID" VALUE="DB_sid"/> <Property NAME="ConnectDescriptor" VALUE="(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(local_host)(PORT=DB_port)))(CONNECT_DA TA=(SID=DB_sid)))"/> <Property NAME="OracleHome" VALUE="oracle_home"/> <Property NAME="UserName" VALUE="DBSNMP"/> <Property NAME="password" VALUE="password" ENCRYPTED="FALSE"/> <Property NAME="Role" VALUE="NORMAL"/> </Target> </Targets>
Variables for the previous example are defined as follows:
Table 13-1 Variable Descriptions for Code Example
|The value of this parameter should be the same as that of the
agentseed parameter in the
emd.properties file
|Host of the EMD_URL
|Port number of the EMD_URL
|Oracle instance on the local system or a remote system
The following variables for the previous example can be obtained from the
tnsnames.ora file for the instance being monitored. They are defined as follows:
Table 13-2 Variable Descriptions for Code Example
|Local host name of the system (for example, mvs05.us.oracle.com)
|Port on which the instance is listening
|Instance ID of the Oracle instance. Corresponds to the
dbname parameter in the
init.ora file
|Location of the Oracle database software
|DBSNMP database user account
|DBSNMP database user account password
Once the Management Agent starts up, it alters the
/var/opt/oratab file
This file should contain one line for every database instance being configured, as in the following example:
In the previous example,
instance_name is the name of the database instance, and
ORACLE_HOME is the Oracle home where the Oracle database software is located.
You use the
emctl command to control the Management Agent. For a description of this and other Management Agent commands, refer to the Oracle Enterprise Manager Advanced Configuration manual.
To issue this command, first log in to the z/OS UNIX System Services environment as the user who owns the Management Agent code. This user also needs DBA privileges.
Set up environment variables in the ENV file located in the Oracle home directory.
To start the Management Agent, use the following command:
$ emctl start agent
To upload the Management Agent's information to the Management Service, use the following command:
$ emctl upload
The host information appears at the Management Service location.
To stop the Management Agent, use the following command:
$ emctl stop agent
The log files and tracing information will be written to the
ORACLE_HOME/sysman/log file.

The following short article is written to provide general advice about online education and degrees, not just information specific to WGU. If you have specific questions about WGU, feel free to inquire online or speak with an enrollment counselor (1-866-225-5948).
Do you like working with numbers? Are you looking for job security in a field that gives you the freedom to find a job anywhere in the US? Do you already work as a bookkeeper or accountant and want to move forward in your career path? Many online business schools offer accounting degrees.
A BS in Accounting will help you find a job as a:
Earning your accounting degree through an online business school permits a lot of flexibility. Typical students should expect to spend at least 20 hours a week studying, taking tests, and completing course materials.
Some online business schools permit you to transfer credits from conventional universities or to earn credit for work experience. For instance, Western Governors University (WGU) uses a competency-based approach, which means knowledge and skills you've already developed will expedite your degree program.
Additionally, if you have an associate's degree (A.A. or A.S. in Business), that may clear your liberal arts and lower-level business assessment requirements.
Before signing up with an online business school, find out if you can accelerate your degree with previous experience.

Rage syndrome is a rare problem that occurs in some dogs. The dog behaves normally most of the time, and then one day, without warning the dog may go crazy, and attack whomever is nearest. As unpredicted as it started, the rage will suddenly end and the dog will return to "normal".
Rage syndrome is a form of epilepsy in dogs. While it can occur in any breed it is more common in some such as Chow Chows, English Bull Terriers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Golden Retrievers, Papillons, and Springer Spaniels, in fact in Springer Spaniels the condition is so common that it is often referred to as "Springer Rage".
What occurs is that dog dog suffers a seizure to the emotional lobe of its brain, causing even the best natured dog to act with total aggression even in a nonthreatening environment. The dogs eyes may appear to "glaze over" just prior to the attack.
Some dogs are bad tempered, the result of poor socialization, poor training, poor genetics, or hormones. This is not the case in Rage Syndrome, where the dogs could be very well mannered, calm, and obedient, until the seizure hits. As such, a dog who is constantly challenging its owner probably does not have rage syndrome, but rather is a dog who simply has not been trained correctly, or who has been allowed to challenge the owners dominance.
To diagnose Rage Syndrome correctly a veterinarian, dog behaviorist, or neurologist, should be consulted. Two opinions may be even better than one. Rage syndrome can be controlled somewhat with medication for epilepsy, but due to the unpredictable nature of this occurrence, and the risk factor, euthanasia is often an option.
Owners of dogs with rage syndrome should be cautioned strongly against abandoning the dog, selling it, or surrendering to an animal shelter, without notifying them of the dogs condition. Doing so may even be considered criminal in some cases (failure to inform that the dog has a history of aggression).

I believe the same syndrome affects humans too, especially men and that is why owners of men with the Rage syndrome could use your advice. Did I say I like this? Of course I do.

it is not really an easy task owning a pet, especially dogs. some owners are not literate on things such as this.

No deal yet with Cubs for Theo Epstein
Posted by Peter Abraham, Globe Staff December 8, 2011 04:47 PM
DALLAS Theo Epstein left the Red Sox for the Cubs on Oct. 22. Seven weeks later the sides have not agreed on compensation and seem disinterested in settling the issue.
We'll resolve it at some point, Ben Cherington said, joking that there was a loose plan to talk again at some point.
Epstein, who is splitting time between Boston and Chicago, said he has used the offices at Fenway Park to conduct business while hes in town. It was either that or Panera Bread.
Meanwhile, Theo made news in Chicago when he picked up a house near Wrigley Field.

Found in West Seattle: Bottle, with message. Yours?November 14, 2013 at 7:00 pm | In Seen at sea, West Seattle news | 16 Comments
After two days of items falling out of the skies, tonight, something that washed up. Brenda found the wine bottle shown below – message inside, Beringer label outside – on a West Seattle beach, and hopes to find out who cast it out to sea and where/when:
I was out with some dogs on a private beach area near the Fauntleroy Ferry Dock in West Seattle when one of the dogs went out to the tide line and showed me a bottle floating in the water. I picked the bottle up and saw it had a note in it. The note got a bit wet and dried it out so could get out of the bottle. Unfortunately, it is really hard to read the note but can make out some of it along with a small surprise within the bottle. I would like to tell whomever where their bottle ended up. If anyone recognizes their treasure, please respond. I can read enough of the note to know if it is you or not. This was an exciting find and will look forward to letting the person know. I do know it is from the US & within the last year from what is on and in the bottle. If this is someone from West Seattle, this will work…..otherwise, it will remain a mystery. Thanks.
Yours? Or someone you know? Brenda will be checking the comments.

Did you break the bottle? (Wine not? I would ask, but I am a pun addict).
Comment by JayDee — 7:32 pm November 14, 2013 #
That's a cool idea! Maybe I will have to try it sometime… I'd be worried that people would think I was just littering though (which I guess technically I would be!).
Comment by Shannon — 9:21 pm November 14, 2013 #
This is definitely NOT a cool idea….we absolutely do not need more littering of our already polluted waters. Please drink your wine and throw the bottle in the recycle bin–no one really cares what you have to say unless your stuffing dollar bills in that bottle!
Comment by Ollie — 9:35 pm November 14, 2013 #
Chill out! Are you truly suggesting greed over romance? Sad. Sad day for you.
Comment by WTF — 10:07 pm November 14, 2013 #
Say what???? There is no romance in throwing wine bottles in the Sound. My point was simply that if you do choose to litter at least throw some dollars in the bottle to help pay for the clean up. I live on the beach and see all the crap that people discard come in with the tides on a daily basis. If you want romance, try Match.com!
Comment by Ollie — 11:12 pm November 14, 2013 #
As a diver, I'd have to agree with Ollie on the no bottles – there are far two many along with other junk at the bottom of the Sound.
Comment by James — 11:25 pm November 14, 2013 #
Whoa, seriously? Is this an episode of Portlandia?
Comment by Melissa — 12:14 am November 15, 2013 #
The history of notes in bottles is quite interesting. Thought would look at Wikipedia and on line. In 2012 a note in a bottle was found dating back to ancient Greece. Wikipedia really is quite interesting on how these bottles have been used in history. From what I read, scientists today use them to check currents. These are usually set up to stay at the top of the water and not go to the bottom. I think the bottles seen on the bottom of the Sound are empty bottles that people do recklessly discard. I think whomever did this did it in innocent fun or perhaps a science experiment. Let's not be so hard on those that do this.
Comment by Bee — 7:35 am November 15, 2013 #
Sand becomes glass, and glass becomes sand. This looks like real glass and real cork. True: don't dump plastic waste on the beach or into the waters, but the glass and cork are not a real issue in the long term. I am not saying everyone should dump their bottles in the Sound, and we should all recycle, but the occasional romantic or research gesture is not what is killing our waters. Give it a rest. Can't wait to see the outcome.
Comment by Kris — 9:38 am November 15, 2013 #
It's mine if it contains any cash
Comment by M — 11:34 am November 15, 2013 #
Mystery solved! Thank you to Brenda for posting her discovery. Indeed this was the innocent work of an 8 year old boy and his friends who were seeking light-hearted adventure mixed with a bit of science and discovery. The bottle set sail the weekend of November 2 from Fauntleroy Cove. No harm to the fragile ecosystem was intended. He was thrilled to see his bottle made "famous" on the WS blog and the fact that it ended up in the hands of someone who was willing to take the adventure one step further.
Comment by Gemma — 12:09 pm November 15, 2013 #
Thanks, Gemma! If we don't get a comment from Brenda shortly, I'll ping her by e-mail to make sure she sees this.
This was a wonderful adventure and am happy to hear from Gemma about the history of the bottle. This was a special find to me in various ways. I was thrilled to find it and especially excited to find out about the background of it. Thank you so much Gemma and let the 8 year old know this was a treasure to me as it really did have special meaning to me which I will not go into here.

Kidney donor Mike Ringer poses with recipient Jennifer Huffine at Ringer's Grant Street home. The kidney transplant was done on March 14. Bill Sinden/The Marion Star
- Filed Under
Jennifer Huffine was not expecting the gift she got from her friend Mike Wicker.
The two only have known each other a few years - they go to church together at Genesis. And when Wicker said he would donate a kidney to her, she didn't believe him at first.
"People offered, but no one really followed through," she said. "And Mike offered, just out of nowhere." ...

Sept. 23, 2008
PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - Ever since the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Head Men's Basketball Coach Frankie Allen took the helm of the struggling program, he has been making changes. Retaining the services of just one of last years assistant coaches, Shawn "Redd" Smith, Allen hired three fresh faces to the staff. Joining the Fighting Hawks for the 2008-09 season as assistants coaches are G. Jamal Brown and Mike Blaine with Nicholas Robinson coming on board as the graduate assistant.
"Jamal is an excellent assistant coach," said Allen. "He has outstanding people skills, which I think are first and foremost, but he is also a very knowledgeable basketball coach."
With 10 years experience coaching at the Division I level, Brown brings a wealth of knowledge to the program. His coaching career began at his alma mater South Carolina State University where he was a standout player before becoming assistant coach and the recruiting coordinator from 1997-2003. Brown was responsible for recruiting four South Carolina State Players of the Year. He then moved on to become the assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for Tennessee State University for two seasons starting in 2003-04 where he worked closely with the team's Academic Advisor in ensuring 80 percent of the team had a GPA of 2.5 or higher. Brown then returned to S.C. State to fill the head coaching roll for the 2006-07 season before joining the UMES team this year.
He has a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration, Marketing and is pursuing his Master's in Sports Administration in 1997.
Blaine was a standout athlete at Johns Hopkins University having been nationally ranked in field goal percentage defense for three straight years. As a competitive player with a team whose four year record was 67-34, he was a part of the monumental win over Navy, the first time in school history.
"Mike is a very detailed person," said Allen. "He's solid in all the basic areas so he can work with both guards and post players."
Upon graduating from Hopkins, Blaine continued his involvement with basketball by accepting positions as the director of men's basketball operations with James Madison University and then the United States Military Academy. He jumped into coaching by taking on assistant coach responsibilities at Radford University and Hampden-Sydney College before signing on with UMES.
Robinson comes to UMES after having served as the head coach of Team Final, a 14 and under team based out of Philadelphia, Pa. After graduating from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, Magna cum Laude, as a double major, he served as the Director of Operations for Five-Star Basketball where he oversaw camp staffing and coordinated the verification of McDonald's All-American Candidates.
"Nick was someone that was well recommended by the people who run the prestigious five star basketball camp," said Allen. "He has a strong work ethic and attention to detail."
As an assistant coach for Concordia College (Bronxville, N.Y.), Robinson evaluated and recruited potential players and implemented new offensive plays before moving on to an assistant coaching position with American Christian Academy and Prep School (Aston, Pa.) where he amassed a 29-7 record.
This marks Shawn Smith's second year with the Fighting Hawks. A Philadelphia native, he played at Simon Gratz High School, winning a National Championship in both 1991 and 1993 teaming with NBA star Rasheed Wallace.
In college, Smith played at LaSalle University where he averaged 10 points and six assists per game while tallying almost two steals per contest.
"I've never in the past kept someone when I took over a program," said Allen speaking of Smith's return. "He interacts well with the players. And in terms of working with our point guards, I don't think I could have found a better coach if I had searched far and wide."
Allen and his new staff will show off their new team when the Hawks host "Hawk Hysteria" a kick-off to the upcoming season on October 17, 2008.

"I stay busy, I don't wait in line to live," raps Atmosphere's Slug on this brand-new collaboration with Brother Ali, Carnage the Executioner and Haphduzn. Produced by Anthony Davis, the smooth-flowing track may not be the prettiest state of mind, but it's a seductive way to kick off the Rhymesayers upcoming "Welcome to Minnesota" tour.
There was a blissful peace in the late morning air as the Midwest's most devout hip-hop heads trickled into the Bagnell Dam Bait Shop and Campground in Lake Ozark, Mo.
I don't make it to many hip hop shows but after last nights performance by a Rhymesayer heavy line-up at the Pageant that is certain to change.

Rabbi Mendel Epstein, seen in the documentary 'Women Unchained,' is one of 10 men accused of plotting to kidnap and torture Orthodox Jewish husbands to force them to grant religious divorces. He lives in Brooklyn and has a house in Lakewood.

Two brothers from Brooklyn admitted in federal court this week they crossed state lines to violently coerce an Orthodox Jewish husband to grant his wife a religious divorce, in a case that has Lakewood connections.
Avrohom Goldstein, 34, pleaded guilty Tuesday, and Moshe Goldstein, 31, pleaded guilty Monday, both to an information charging them with traveling in interstate commerce to commit extortion.
The brothers entered their guilty pleas before U.S. District Judge Freda L. Wolfson in Trenton federal court, who last week accepted the identical guilty plea of David Hellman, 31, also ...

it's an awesome idea to add to your kit , make something like that with some nice text like "wow / you're 20 now / blahblah / porn / blahblah"
Get a box of condoms in the smallest size possible, and put a rubber band in it for him with a note saying "just in case".
Yes, it's mean. But he's 20.
He's 20...
Well, Why in the smallest size then?
he'll be ready for life.
It's an insult... to his masculinity... y'know.

Ghosts Ahoy

|Quest series
|Official difficulty

Details Edit
|Start point
|Talk to Velorina in Port Phasmatys.
|Official difficulty
|East of Canifis is a ghost port. Not meaning that it's deserted. It's full of ghosts! For some reason, they're stuck in RuneScape, but some aren't happy with that. Can you help?
|Items required
|Enemies to defeat
|Giant lobster (level 32)
Walkthrough Edit
Beginning the Quest Edit
Items required: Ghostspeak amulet, 7 bones, 7 empty buckets, and 7 empty pots.
- Equip your Amulet of Ghostspeak, and take 7 bones, 7 buckets, and 7 pots to the Ectofunctus, and worship it in order to get 35 ectotokens. To get pots of ground bones, simply walk upstairs from the altar, and use the bone grinder. Note that you only need to "use" the first set of bones with the loader: the game will then automatically (and slowly) do all 7 pots of bones for you. Ectoplasm can be found by entering the trap door and using your buckets with the pool of slime at the bottom level. After worshipping the Ectofunctus seven times, simply talk to a Ghost disciple to get your tokens.
- Once you have them, pay 2 tokens to the guards for them to let you through, and go talk to Velorina, who is found in the northernmost house, to begin the quest. She is in the house just east of the gates. When you talk to her, she will tell you that she is unhappy being kept where she is and not being allowed to pass on. She'll tell you to talk to Necrovarus.
Note: Port Phasmatys has a bank on its coast to the south-east, which can be accessed even without your Amulet of Ghostspeak. Make certain you hold onto your Ectotokens.
- Talk to Necrovarus back at the Ectofunctus. Unfortunately, he'll be less than cooperative and even gets rather irate over your involvement. Since this obviously isn't going anywhere, go back and talk to Velorina again. She'll have another idea to try.
The Old Crone and Nettle Tea Edit
Items required: A tinderbox, logs, gloves, a bowl of water, a bucket of milk, and nettles.
- After retrieving the necessary items from the Port Phasmatys bank, travel back towards the direction of Canifis.
- Pick some of the nettles (while wearing gloves - Graceful gloves, Mystic gloves, and Lunar gloves do not work. If you need to, you can buy gloves in Canifis or use the bank there) east of Mazchna (a Slayer Master), and head north-west of Mazchna, out to the east side of the Slayer Tower, where there's a small house. It is a good idea to pick multiple nettles and bring multiple bowls of water in case your water boils over in the next part. This is the woman you're looking for.
- Talk to the old woman, and she'll tell you about how she wants some nettle tea to refresh her aged memory.
- Put the nettles in the bowl of water, light a fire, and boil the water. Make sure to right-click on the bowl so as not to accidentally drink it. You can also boil the water on a range or fire. It is possible for nettle water to boil over, so picking a few nettles and bringing more than one bowl of water may be a good idea.
- Return to the woman's house, but she still won't be satisfied. It has to be in her own special cup. Again, right-click on the bowl, and put the nettle tea you have into the cup, and give it to her. Now, she will complain it has no milk. Use the bucket of milk on the tea.
- With a bit of tea warming her, the old woman will tell you a way you can beat Necrovarus by enchanting your Amulet of Ghostspeak to temporarily control ghosts in addition to talking to them, though it will only have one charge. To do this, she needs three items: The Book of Haricanto, the robes of Necrovaus, and a translation manual.
- Make sure you talk to the old woman again and ask if there's anything you can do for her since she's been so helpful to you. She'll tell you about her long lost son and give you a model ship.
Enchanting the Amulet Edit
Items required: Model ship, Amulet of Ghostspeak, silk, a needle, thread, a knife, 3 unspecified dyes, a spade, an oak longbow, 200 coins, Ecto-tokens, and Combat gear.
The Book of Haricanto Edit
- You can bank in Canifis if needed. Make sure to still have your Amulet of Ghostspeak on hand.
- Use the silk, needle, thread and knife to repair the model ship by right clicking on it.
- Head to the broken down ship just north of the farm near the Ectofuntus. Walk onto it, and climb up a ladder. Then, climb another ladder to get to the top floor. Wait for the wind to die down a bit, and search the mast to find out what colours both flag parts and the skull are. Now, mix what dyes you need, and use them on the model ship to dye it the appropriate colours.
- Head down a level, and talk to the old man. Ask him if it's his ship, and he'll recognise it. You've found the long lost son! For giving him the ship back, he'll give you a key.
- Use the key on the chest inside the captain's quarters to receive a piece of a map.
- Proceed to the north-west side of the ship where there is a plank you can walk out onto and get to some rocks. Jump along the path of rocks. Each jump costs 5% of your run energy, so keep it on walk so you don't run out. It is possible to fail the jumps. If it says "That's too far to jump!", simply right click, and select "Walk Here" to the edge of the rock prior to jumping. When you get to the end, there will be another chest with another map piece. Take it, and go back to the ship.
- Climb down to the lowest level of the ship and get ready to fight. Search all the chests, and a giant lobster will attack you. Kill it, and take the last piece of the map from the chest - if you do not kill it fast enough, it will disappear and you will have to search the chest again and it will be at full health. Now, fit them all together.
- Talk to the ghost captain of a small rowing boat to go to Dragontooth Island. Once there, use the map to find the treasure. If you want to walk it out, go to the left arm of the statue you see nearby upon landing on the island. From there, walk 6 steps south, 8 steps east, 2 steps north, 4 steps east, and 22 steps south. Dig there with your spade, and you should find the book you're looking for. (Note: You need to have the map in your inventory to find the book.)
The Manual Edit
- Head back to the port and bank. From the bank, take about 400 coins and the oak longbow.
- Talk to Ak Haranu, a human wandering around the docks east of the inn. He'll tell you he has the manual, but in trade for it, he wants Robin's signature on an oak longbow.
- Walk to the inn and talk to Robin. He'll challenge you to a game of Runedraw. Beat him at it a few times until he owes you 100 coins (the objective of the game is to get as many points as possible, awarded when you draw a rune, before drawing a death rune, which results in an automatic loss; if Robin draws a death rune before you, you win). He will give you his signature to repay the debt. Take it back to the trader, and he'll give you the manual you need.
The Robes Edit
- Go to the innkeeper and ask him if he has any jobs for you, and he will give you a bedsheet that he wants you to take to Robin. Rather than doing that, just take it with you.
- For this part, you may save some time by trading one of the trader crewmembers on the east docks and buying a bucket of slime to dip the bedsheet in. The more time consuming way is to go to the Ectofunctus, and walk down to the slime pool you fill your buckets with, and dip the sheet into it. Now, when you go back to town, talk to Gravingas, the ghost activist protesting just inside the town's gate. Talk to him, and he'll give you a petition to collect signatures for. Put your sheet on because the ghosts are rather distrustful of humans and gather 10 signatures from them. As long as you don't talk to the same person twice in a row, you can ask the same two or three ghosts for all 10 signatures. Don't worry if they ask for ecto-tokens. Just ask someone else if you don't want to pay.
- With all 10 signatures, talk to Gravingas, who will ask you to go back to Necrovarus and show him the petition. He'll get so angry over the dissension that he'll drop a key. Swipe it, and head upstairs, and use the key on the locked door to get into his room. Open and search the coffin to find his robes.
Using the Spell Edit
Items required: Mystical robes, Book of Haricanto, translation manual, and an Amulet of Ghostspeak.
- Return to the old crone with the robes, book, manual, and Amulet of Ghostspeak in your possession. Give all this to her, and she'll cast the spell on your amulet.
- Walk back to the Ectofunctus, and make sure you're not being attacked by a vampire or anything, as this will interrupt your conversation.
- Talk to Necrovarus, and command him to release all the ghosts he's holding. Feel free to have him tell you the joke first or do the chicken impersonation; it won't deplete the ghost amulet's charge. Just keep going through the rest of the conversation until the very end.
- Enter Port Phasmatys one last time (this time, and forever after, you don't have to pay), and talk to Velorina to tell her the good news. Congratulations! Quest completed!
Rewards Edit
- 2 Quest Points
- 2,400 Prayer experience
- Free passage to Port Phasmatys
- The Ectophial, which allows direct teleport to the Ectofunctus. Just use it on the Ectofunctus to refill it.
Notes Edit
- Your character will refill the ectophial automatically upon teleporting, but if you click away before it is refilled, it will not be refilled, and you will have to do it manually.
- The Ectofunctus is one of the nearest teleports to the Fairy ring network by running west through Mort Myre Swamp.
