Scuba Lore

Archive for November, 2009

It would be cool to try out the rangers but there with the army. After boot camp I want to try both parachuting and scuba diving. Theres recon but I think you have to have time in infantry to try out for that. What could I do?

to get jump status the you will have to go to airborne school in georgia (i,ve seen it done )and then scuba diving then you might have to go to the navy diving school.and then a couple of years of infantry the you can try out for force recon .

I ADORE the ocean. I love animals (especially whales) and would love to work or study them. I love diving too. I also love to write. What kind of career would be good for me?

Subic Bay
Anilao
Napti Island
Palawan

Want to leave your money to a goat, wear certain underwear, want people to wear scuba diving gear?

I want to donate my body to a bad medical school, where the students have no idea what they’re doing.

I have been diving at the Old Club Reef in Mesaieed for quite sometime now, and i have heard there are a couple of other dive sites to be found in Qatar. If you know of any could you help me know where they are so I can enjoy diving there? Thanks! A google map pointing the way would be great, or coordinates, or directions to go there would be reaaaally helpful. Thanks so much guys!

I’m taking a trip to Real Del Mar this weekend and want to go diving for a day. Note: I’m certified. Also I would rather like to find a place that will rent everything including snorkle, mask, etc. because I don’t want to bring any gear. Also please tell me the website of the place.

1. Your stranded in the ocean and your ship doesnt notice you fell overboard. it sails away and you see a giant shark coming at you.

2. Your in the plains of africa and a hungry Lion sees you.

3. Your in the nile and a giant crocodile is bashing your ship hungry for anyone.

4. Your diving undersea and a blue whale is swimming right at you.

5. your dog was infected with something has rabies and is going crazy like cujo.

6. A man outside is calling you and he has a chainsaw and a hockey mask on.

7. you accidently stumbled into a nest of 20 angry rattlesnakes.

8. You accidenlty step into a nest of spiders.

9. trapped in a dark cave with a flashlight only and your trapped on a rock in the middle of a lake and you can see just under the water what you think is a giant sea serpant that moves very very quickly

10. your in the woods all alone and a mysterious dark figure in the fog is at the top of a hill with a weapon of some sort.

1,6 & holy crap 9!!!

I want to go snorkeling as well as Scuba Diveing in Aruba.What is a outstanding location , or what beach area on the island of Aruba is Best .Id like to be close, to the water , find lots of fish , clear water , coral heads and interesting things too see.Im not afriad to walk across the street if the Helle price is lower ,,,, Any thoughts out there ???
the word near the end that makes no sence !!!! its supposed to be Hotel ,not hette HOTEL :-},,, sorry

FOR THE BEST SNORKELING:

Delphi Sports on Palm Beach in front of where the Hyatt is, near the Westin, is wonderful!! It’s where the High-Rise hotels are. Prices are great, and you get a free I <3 Aruba T-shirt at the end! Oh, and Ronald, Hugo, John, and Olga are so nice! Ronald is the captain of the Dolphin (Delphi’s snorkle ship) and Hugo is his first mate. My mom’s good friends with them. John and Olga are very, very nice, and can help you if you have any questions on what to do (they have many different water activites).

They take you to two different sites,
*The Antillia wreck, which is Aruba’s biggest wreck., and one of the biggest in the Carribean. Ronald tells you a story about how it crashed, in the second world… Well, he tells it better. The water’s clear, but the current is swifter than the second location, though still manageable. The fish and coral there are gorgeous.
*There are two second sites, and you will go to one of them. They each have crystal clear water and beautiful fish and coral. The water’s colder here, but the current is almost non-existent, much less swift than the first site. Personally, I perfer the second location, near the lighthouse, to end the trip on a good note.

They offer you free drinks and snacks, and you can get a piece of bread to feed the fish, who will eat it out of your hand. My family goes a few times each trip, because the fish are never the same; it’s a new experience each time. The coral’s lovely, and pelicans perch on the bow of the shipwreck, which is a few feet above the water, depending on the tide, whereas the rest of the boat is submerged.

The difference between the blood lactate concentration of whales before and after diving was found to be ’significant (p < 0.05)’. Briefly explain what the word ’significant’ means in this context.

If I had to give an answer I would say something about how, as a result, an oxygen deficit has built up, but I really dont know if thats even in the right area of thought!!

Cheers in advance

It means that the value is large enough to say that change in lactate concentration was caused by something other than random chance.
