He resurrected, counts as alive. Or at least undead.

Maybe not the latest ones, but Django, Inglorious Basterds, American History X.

Ah, I see, right.
Anyway, forgot to add earlier I shot recurve, kind of changes everything I guess.

The principle stays. I'm using finger tab, you just gently let slide the bowstring until it cannot be stopped and arrow is released.

Nah, it's for all archery, you don't need release mechanism. What might surprise you here, it's basically the same rule as with shooting a gun. You don't pull the trigger, you jest press it gently until the shot surprises you.
99% of rules apply for both archery and gun shooting, like relaxed stance and muscles, focus on aiming sights, properly training muscle memory etc.

Reply to comment by Endoman13 in What is the actual mechanism by which the body generates a fever? by Pheophyting
It's a specific situation, where our warship required electrical supervision and there was noone who could replace me anyway.
I took leave of my duties quite early (around 6 PM, where I should be on legs until 10PM), took the med, sweated my butt and woke up 4:30AM in rather good shape and finished supervision. I'm already home, military is specific place where you sometimes grit your teeth to avoid massive inconvenience for a lot of people.

Yesterday I had such a fever (unfortunately there wasn't any thermometer to measure it), that I had terrible shivers, first time so strong that all my muscles literally ached after 15 minutes. And my lips became purple, and fingertips. First time I've seen something like that.
I took paracetamol to fight it and went to bed early, slept under the blanket in uniform (soldier here) and was rather cold anyway until med kicked in and I've almost drowned in my own sweat.

At one day deforstation of Amazon will fall to 0%, because there will be nothing else to save.
Percentage statistic isn't really saying anything here.
