SelfImmolation

Cranked out a restless 20 min sit, had to count my breathing to keep focused. Hope you all are having some good sits. Tell us about them :)

Did about 30 minutes today and experimented with different sitting positions other than the usual straight back chair - such as cross legged against a wall (for back support).

Hope all your medi is going well, fill us in on the details

Although he said a lot of things I do not agree with, here is one quote from him that I admire:

THE MAN IN THE ARENA

Excerpt from the speech "Citizenship In A Republic", delivered at the Sorbonne, in Paris, France on 23 April, 1910

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer

of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face

is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again,

because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who

knows great enthusia

But I want to buy him a book to maybe get him back into it. He is in his late 20s and has never really enjoyed reading. What is a book that I could buy him that most men at that age would like?

Thanks, r/books!

Update: Thanks so much for all the responses, I am overwhelmed with all the responses! I have a lot to work worth, cheers!

Hey all,

I have been working through Stronglift 5x5, and I am enjoying the full range of the workouts offered (especially squats). But one aspect is bothering me. I feel that there is not a lot of focus on the arms (I could be mistaken here).

Don't get me wrong, I want a balanced physique, but I would like to tone my arms and maybe put on slightly more muscle in them...

Edit: Forgot to add that I have searched subreddit, and I have also checked the FAQs, but nothing really fit the question I was asking.

What would be some exercises at home and at the gym that I could do?

Hey all,

I am running (or trying to...) run 10.10 (64 bit) on my Dell XPS M1330. I am having problems with my Wireless connection I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 on an HP laptop, and everything went fine, including finding the wireless network connection (i.e. I can see the wireless router I want to connect too). Now, doing the same on my laptop, I cannot find the wireless connection (I can see other connections of the neighbors...). I have reinstalled twice, and rebooted both computer and wireless router. I have even tried setting up the connection manually, but to no avail.

Help, if any, will be much appreciated!

Thanks for all the help thu

Hey all,

just got a message that my HDD is about to fail. I have read that I should run fsck without flags?

I am lost reddit! Need help please!

EDIT Well, thanks everyone for the advice, I am currently backing up all the data and hoping my HDD will last another 2 hours to do so.

Once again, I appreciate all the prompt informative help on this subreddit :D Running 10.10, on a Dell XPS 1330M

I am running 10.10, and VLC initially started doing this when I went to say: Place > Documents. It would start VLC player instead of the usual file management program. I then uninstalled VLC and Rhythm Box has started...

Please some one help me !
