To add new additional information to the previous article about the Ubuntu CE (the unofficial Christian Edition of Ubuntu). That article can be found here.

There are a few free resources that are highly suggested to help one learn this operating system: the Ubuntu Training wiki's pdfs, the Ubuntu Pocket Guide and Reference is free as a pdf, and Ubuntu Apps is free as a pdf. Aslo Canonical has come out with a site and service called Ubuntu One. Ubuntu One gives Ubuntu distros 2gb of free online file storage which has syncing and sharing capabilities. The 2gb can be increased through an optional, and paid, subscription service.

So it's been floating around for a short period of time that Peter Furler is stepping down as the lead vocalist of Newsboys and is to be superseded by Michael Tait of dcTalk.


This has come about as Peter Furler with all of the work that is done with the band and he has done for so many years was fearing a burnout. The end result is that he will still be involved in the songwriting and production of the Newsboys music, but he will no longer front the band.

Michael Tait of dcTalk is to be the replacement. At the time this came about he was working on his first pop album and got a phone call from them. He felt that this was a great fit and decided to delve right into it with the Newsboys.

Since the claimed transition Peter has joined with them on select dates on tour. Perhaps he may continue to do this and periodically guest appearances may be an option and is being done throughout the transition.

The Newsboys have a new album out May 5, 2009. It is obvious their first single "In the Hands of God is performed by Peter on vocals. What is to become of the rest of the album will be interesting to see.

If you would like to buy the single "In the Hands of God" you can pick it up from Amazon MP3 here.

The Newsboys Official homepage is found here.

There are two videos linked below that are very informative about the situation if you wish to hear more:
