    The paper provides some almost sure limit results for appropriately normed sums of independent random variables \(S_{n_k}\), where the summands of \(S\) are in the domain of attraction of an asymmetric stable law with exponent \(\alpha \not= 1\), and the subsequence \(n_k\) increases geometrically fast. The proof uses the Borel-Cantelli lemma and special bounds or expansions for the tails of \(S_{n_k}\), respectively.
