Thank you very, very, much, Ausjulius.
Guys, any idea of how to translate it?
I tried copying each column of the PDF text and pasting it in a free on-line translating service (it doesn’t accept more than 150 words at the time).
It works surprisingly well. Not like a human translation… anyway it’s better than nothing.
BUT it’s a slow process.
Huh, the title is ‘Weapons of the people of the Caucasus”. ;)
Regards,
Phil

I guess you guys must be getting something from this link . :confused:
All I'm getting are pictures of hot girls in my area that want to meet me and links to sex sites.
When I try to download the file I get 'Page cannot be displayed' wottthehell? :confused:

Phil 1st September 2006 02:43 PM

Hi Rick,

Using Firefox with the Adblock extension I didnt’s see the girls…
I can see them now, using IE. :p
Well…
Just ignore them ;) and click on
“DOWNLOAD
COPY OF______________.PDF
FROM OUR DEDICATED SERVER”
And wait for a while until a dialog box will pop up asking if you want to open or SAVE the file.


If anybody needs the automatic- translated index of the book, here it is
(I had to adjust the page numbers because there is a discrepancy between the book and the PDF file):

indeed, nude girls,,,,,,, did you get the book ok?
if not i can upload it to another site??


about translating it i can do this no my computer,, i will make it into english shortly,,

Phil 5th September 2006 01:17 PM

Thank you again, Ausjulius:I stopped my efforts to translate it at page #7!

Are you planning to translate it as a separate text or inside the PDF?

The site I was using could be useful for you too:
http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr

Remember, Babel Fish translates text up to about 150 words at a time, but it can speed up your work.
Regards,
Phil

Rather 5th September 2006 01:18 PM

Girls, Girls, Girls.... as the Group Sailor chanted in 1975 :D ...but regrettably no access to the file :confused:
Nevertheless, thank you for your efforts, ausjulius!

wolviex 5th September 2006 02:08 PM

Dear Norbert!
If you have problem downloading this file from filehost here is second link on rapidshare:
here

CHOOSE 'FREE' and on new page one of the servers.

Book seems to be great! Thank you once again Julius! I'm just translating this on Polish with Russian-Polish translator and thanks to many similarities in semantics of both languages it's quite clear for me :D. Thought translating this on English could be pain :eek:

Regards!

PS. Julius, I hope you received email from me. I attached many pictures inside so if you have any problem just let me know :)

wolviex 5th September 2006 04:11 PM

BTW, what are the other books on Caucasian arms? Can anyone provide any titles of books or catalogues one should read? There seems to be so little printed on this matter.
Thanks

Tim Simmons 5th September 2006 08:10 PM

I got the book okay, three in a bed is a bit more of a pipe dream. watch out your wife might catch you.

Rather 5th September 2006 10:19 PM

Thank you, Michal!
The link worked well and I got the file within a few minutes. Great hint! :)

Sorry Tim, I hit the wrong button; edit instead of quote.

Here's what I intended to respond with :

Haha Tim , here in the States we call it male Fantasy # 2,345,602 :D

A. G. Maisey 6th September 2006 12:58 AM

Might be a fantasy, but I know a gentleman in Australia who married two sisters, and they all shared the same bed.

I know a woman in Jawa who was the second wife and was chosen by the first wife for the sole purpose of providing her husband with children, as the first wife was barren.They all slept in one bed too.

I take my hat off to both these gentlemen.

One wife at a time is all I could ever handle, even in my wildest fantasies.

Rather 6th September 2006 07:17 AM

Moreover, one would have to get along with two mothers in law.... ;)

Ann Feuerbach 8th September 2006 01:37 PM

Thanks loads for the link to the book. Must brush up on (or re-learn) Russian. Also, thanks for the translation link. Hard to get books on the Caucusus (even when in the Caucusus!).
Ann :)

Rivkin 8th September 2006 07:18 PM

Thank you very much, got my copy (did not have any internet for a while). Astvatzaturjan, 1st edition.
