President Obama announced to the world Sunday, May 1st, 2011 that the mastermind behind the terrorist attacks of September 11th, the London transit bombings, the USS Cole bombings of 2000, and leader of al-Qaeda is dead.
After a 40-minute firefight in Abbottabad, Pakistan, according to the New York Times, Osama bin Laden was killed and recovered by U.S. Forces. On Monday May 2, the body was disposed of in the Arabic Ocean and given a proper Arabic burial.
Facts about Osama bin Laden:
- Born to a wealthy family, bin Laden's father owned a successful construction company and was granted a large inheritance after his fathers death.
- One of 50 children
- Founded al-Qaeda in 1988 and has been linked to dozens of terrorist attacks across the globe
- Placed on America's Most Wanted at #1 with a $25 million bounty placed on his head — dead or alive; that was later raised to $50 million
- Has been the primary target of U.S. military forces spanning three U.S. presidencies
Over the past two decades, bin Laden and his followers have been responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent lives and plots to undermine US and allied forces in stopping terror; here are some events we found significant:

• alienate •
Pronunciation: ay-li-ê-nayt • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Verb, transitive
Meaning: 1. To cause to become indifferent, unfriendly, to disaffect, to make someone not want to associate with you. 2. To turn away, to divert, to make someone feel as if they don't belong. 3. (Law) To transfer ownership.
Notes: Alienate should mean "to make someone an alien". It doesn't mean exactly that, but it almost does: it means to make someone feel as though they were an alien. The abstract noun for this verb is alienation and the personal noun, alienator. The adjective most often used is the participle, alienating, though alienative is still around (if not in my spellchecker.)
In Play: The first sense of today's Good Word is simply "to cause disaffection": "You don't think reducing the lunch break to 15 minutes will alienate our workers?" The next sense of this word is "to turn away", as to turn away voters in an election: "His support of the toxic waste plant alienated many of the voters in Jerry Mander's district."
Word History: Today's Good Word is taken from Latin alienatus, the past participle of alienare "to make another's, estrange" from alienus "of another, not one's own" from alius "other". The feminine accusative plural of this word is alias "otherwise, at another time". It was used as an adverb in Latin, but came to English as a noun. That is it we see in alarm, from Italian allarme, originally All'arme! "To arms!" The all(a) is a reduction of ad "to" + illa "that". Alligator, too, comes from this same root. It was borrowed from Spanish el lagarto "the lizard". The Spanish word for "the" was derived from the Latin word for "that", ille, just as English the comes from that. (Lest we alienate the affections of Fay Poole, who suggested today's Good Word, let's thank her now for her service.)

Why Does Adrian Grenier Need His Own iPad App?
Adrian Grenier is launching an iPad app called Reckless Adrian Grenier. But is it really necessary?
-Lucia Peters
It's true: Entourage star Adrian Grenier is launching his own iPad app. It's called Reckless Adrian Grenier, and it is, according the Hollywood Reporter, "personality-centric" (whatever that means).
I realize that being a celebrity is all about branding yourself, but is this really necessary?
The Hollywood Reporter goes on to note that this is the first time a celebrity has gone independent with their own branded content app. Adrian, who is the president of the independent production company Reckless Productions (hence the app's name), is planning on using Reckless Adrian Grenier to keep his fans informed about his work and his company, as well as to engage socially with them. In a statement, the actor/producer said, "By engaging with fans directly, producers can be truly independent in their film-making, including financial autonomy and, moreover, create the type of movie experience that fans really want." This, of course, is assuming that fans know enough about filmmaking to do so.
Read Look, Everyone! Ellen Was On 'The Bachelor: The Women Tell All!'
I guess what I'm having trouble figuring out is how (if at all) this app does anything more than what Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, and all the rest of the social media platforms out there already do. Apparently Reckless Adrian Grenier will make it easy to access all of Adrian's accounts on these platforms; but what else is there? Plans for the app include launching trailers, behind-the-scenes footage, and some wacky-sounding feature called "Theatre of Your Life" ("you are the star and your Facebook friends are your audience!"). Behind-the-scenes footage sounds fun… but again: Why exactly does this need to be an app? Aren't there already ways to share all of these things?
The basic app is free; naturally, though, there are as-yet-unspecified additional bits and pieces users can pay for (there's no such thing as a free lunch. Or app. Or whatever). At least all proceeds from the app's sales go to the SHFT Initiative, a charity founded by Adrian geared towards promoting and raising awareness about sustainability issues.
Tell us: Neat idea? Or totally unnecessary idea? Would you use Reckless Adrian Grenier?

Skis with metal edges skis tend to be shorter and more rugged, while edge-less skis are longer, lighter, and work well on trails and groomed tracks, too.
Camber describes how the ski is shaped or bends up and away from the snow from tip to tail. Most Nordic touring skis have a traditional camber that flattens when it's weighted and bows up when it's unweighted; it's therefore important to choose a ski appropriate to your height, weight, and ability. Skis designed for deep snow may have a rockered tip.
Wider skis offer stability and float in deep snow, while a narrower ski will offer less resistance as you're breaking trail through the woods. If you're planning on taking the touring ski on groomed tracks as well, look for a ski that measures no more than 68mm at its widest point.
Like all cross-country skis, the bases of Nordic touring skis are either no-wax or waxable. Some prefer the versatility and convenience of skis with a 'fish scale' base that grips without the need for wax. Others prefer the speed and performance of waxable skis; however, they do require that you choose a wax that precisely matches snow conditions and temperatures.

BLUEBIRDS winger Joe McClennan was frustrated to see his side fail to get their just rewards from Monday night's trip to St Albans City.
Chippenham Town slipped to a narrow defeat as a first half strike from prolific Saints striker John Frendo saw off the challenge of Mark Collier's men at Clarence Park.
McClennan recognised the positives from a spirited Bluebirds performance but would happily swap points on the board for positive displays.
"I think we were unlucky not to get a point. In the first half we were a bit open but in the second half, we got to grips with the system we were playing," he said.
"We had chances at the end that were crucial but I suppose when you're at the bottom, that's the kind of luck you have – when you're at the top, chances go in.
"We always seem to do well against the better sides – I don't know why that is – and we always seem to cause them problems. But when we play the lower teams, we always seem to struggle and I don't know if it's a mental thing.
"Even when we played them (St Albans) at home, they were lucky to draw with us, but you can't play well and not get the points. You'd rather play badly and win.
"I'm happy with the way we've played but it's annoying because we've gone home with no points."
McClennan is also hoping the Chippenham squad can finally begin to settle down after a season of almost constant upheaval so far.
The Bluebirds man added: "We've had a lot of managers this year and a lot of players coming in and out, so we haven't had a settled side. But we've got a good group now and this will probably by the squad until the end of the season, so hopefully we can gel and move on.
"At the minute, it's tough because we're struggling to pick up points. Hopefully we can get a run together because it's all a confidence thing."
The hosts started brightly, with Chris Henry just failing to get the final touch on Howard Hall's low cross before Frendo struck the base of the post with a free-kick.
With 20 minutes on the clock, St Albans did make the breakthrough as Henry's whipped cross looped over the head of Frendo but the striker superbly volleyed home with his outstretched left foot.
Ben John charged down Mark Nwokeji to prevent the Saints man making it 2-0 moments later before the Bluebirds keeper had to dive down to prevent a wicked deflection finding its way into the net following a corner kick.
Another fine piece of goalkeeping saw the Bluebirds keeper come out on top in a one-on-one battle with Frendo midway through the half, with John reaching high to gather the ball after the home striker attempted an audacious chip.
At the other end, Lee Phillips flashed an effort across the face of goal and midway through the second period, a glorious chance to equalise went begging for the Bluebirds.
McClennan sent Rob Dean racing into the box and the midfielder's strike was sublimely tipped onto the crossbar by veteran keeper Paul Bastock.
The alert McClennan then hooked the rebound back into the danger area but the off-balance Phillips was unable to knock his effort into the unguarded net.
Chippenham continued to exert pressure on their promotion-chasing hosts but the Saints held firm to take all three points.

WEBSTER, Texas - Employees at a convenience store are worried after two break-ins in 10 days.
Webster police said thieves targeted the Sunny's store in the 17600 block of El Camino Real Boulevard.
Surveillance cameras caught images of the thieves in action.
The first burglary happened about 2:50 a.m. on May 26.
Video showed a group of men use slabs of concrete, which police suspect were stolen from a construction site across the street, to bus through the front door of the store.
Two men stormed into the store with garbage bags in hand while the other two served as lookouts.
"They had masks and gloves," manager Asifali Momin said. "They were full-covered."
The men were in the store for about 45 seconds. In that time, they stole cash, cigarettes and snacks, police said.
Detectives said the burglars came back about 1:45 a.m. on June 5. Investigators said the thieves smashed through a side window to get into the store.
The men took more cash and a bunch of lottery tickets, police said.
Momin, who has worked at the store since it opened in 1998, said he is worried about his safety.
"This is quite a good neighborhood," he said. "Things like that don't happen. It makes me angry because these things shouldn't happen to anybody."
Anyone with information about the break-ins is asked to call Webster police at 281-332-2426.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/5/2013 (1568 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Last month, a reader requested a recipe for thin, crispy buttermilk pancakes. This week we have a recipe from Diane Fraser of Brandon for cooks who prefer the light, fluffy kind. These pancakes get extra airiness from beaten egg whites and, for convenience, can be frozen in individual portions and reheated on the morning you need them.
Rose Beaulieu wrote in requesting a reliable recipe for flour tortillas -- she has had trouble with the dough shrinking. Rachel Unger offers a recipe she's tried from Manitoba's own Mennonite Girls Can Cook, a group of women who blog on food and hospitality at mennonitegirlscancook.ca and who have recently published a cookbook.
This week, Shirley Friesen is hoping someone knows how to make "Kickin' shrimp" like the Tony Roma's appetizer, and Dayna Steinfeld, a Winnipegger now living in Ottawa, is looking for a seven-grain salad recipe similar to the version sold at Costco. If you can help with a recipe request, have your own request, or a favourite recipe you'd like to share, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com, fax it to 697-7412, or write to Recipe Swap, c/o Alison Gillmor, Winnipeg Free Press, 1355 Mountain Ave. Winnipeg, MB, R2X 3B6. Please include your first and last name, address and telephone number.
Homemade Flour Tortillas
(adapted from mennonitegirlscancook.ca)
500 ml (2 cups) all-purpose flour
2 ml (1/2 tsp) baking powder
3 ml (3/4 tsp) salt
60 ml (1/4 cup) vegetable shortening
150 ml (2/3 cup) hot water
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Pour in hot water, a little at a time, mixing with a fork until dough comes together. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and knead a few minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest 45 minutes. Divide dough into 8 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Cover balls with plastic wrap. With a rolling pin, roll one ball into a 15-18 cm (6-7 inches) circle. (Don't worry if they're not perfect circles.) Preheat your pan on medium heat. Do not add oil. Place tortilla in hot pan and cook until bubbles appear before flipping to the other side. Cook approximately one minute on each side. Cook one tortilla while you roll out the next one. Stack cooked tortillas and cover with a tea towel until all are cooked. Now they are ready for your favourite recipe. Tortillas can be frozen for future use.
Tester's notes: These are much fresher than supermarket versions and easier than I thought (though I'm glad the recipe is reassuring about imperfect circles -- mine weren't even close to circular). In terms of the shrinking dough issue, resting the dough definitely helps to reduce that problem. I also rolled the dough out on a flourless board, which seemed to help hold the round in place so that it didn't shrink back. Coming out of the pan, my tortillas felt a bit stiff, but they softened up when stacked under a clean tea towel.
Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes
750 ml (3 cups) all-purpose flour
30 ml (2 tbsp) sugar
10 ml (2 tsp) baking soda
10 ml (2 tsp) baking powder
5 ml (1 tsp) salt
6 egg whites
6 egg yolks
775 ml (3 1/3 cups) buttermilk
90 ml (6 tbsp) melted butter or melted hard margarine
Sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt into large bowl. Make a well in the centre. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Using same beaters, in a medium bowl, beat egg yolks, buttermilk and melted butter until well combined. Pour the egg-buttermilk-butter mixture into the dry ingredients, and using same beaters, beat until combined. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
Heat greased frying pan or griddle on medium-high. For each 10 cm (4 in) pancake, spoon 60 ml (1/4 cup) batter into frying pan. Cook until bubbles appear on surface and edges are lightly browned. Flip over and cook until lightly browned. Serve at once, or cool on racks for freezing.
Makes about 40 pancakes.
Tester's notes: Diane Fraser has cooked for 60 years and has never had much use for pancakes. But 10 years ago she found this recipe, which she says puts all other pancakes to shame. I'm converted, too. These are the fluffiest pancakes I have ever made, thanks to the egg whites. (Be sure to beat the egg whites before the yolks, rather than the other way around, since any yolk in the whites will keep them from whipping up properly.)
The other thing that Diane likes about this recipe is that you can freeze them "and they taste as they were just made." Diane cools the pancakes on racks, makes up serving portions in press-and-seal packages and then puts them in a large freezer bag to freeze for up to three months. She takes out a portion the night before it's needed, defrosts on the counter, and then microwaves the next day for about one minute at 80 per cent power. Handy!

John and Marsey Jancic's '70 Road Runner stepped up to Hemi power as a school project
When people decide to build tribute cars, they often set out to find a nice pedestrian body style and convert it up to performance level trim. An upgrade is what happened with this particular Road Runner, though perhaps not in the way that you might think. John and Marsey Jancic had actually spent time looking for a nice 1970 version of the legendary Plymouth, and settled on one that had already 'been done' out of Texas.
"We found the car on eBay, and bought two round-trip plane tickets to Dallas, Texas, to go look at it," recalls John now. "There was about a two-hour drive out to where the car was at. It looked and felt right, so we agreed on a fair price, and had it transported back to our home in North Carolina."
John's company, Mid State Metals of the Carolinas LLC, is in the heart of NASCAR country, and several of his display buildings host his collection of both vintage and modern iron, mainly Chryslers. The car he and Marsey bought was a Hemi Orange, non-numbers-matching 440-Six Barrel Air Grabber car, with a 727 and an 83⁄4 Sure Grip differential. It assuaged the desire for a 1970 model due to its B-Body styling and options, and fit the bill until they took it and another car, a '69 383 Road Runner convertible, out for a weekend drive. Marsey was in the '70.
It's 472 inches of stock-looking Hemi fury. Good thing the transmission and rear end were upgraded.
"We were on a Cruising for Christ club tour, and during the run home, a fuel line split and sprayed gasoline all over the passenger side of the engine bay," says John. "I had not known it until then, but the bay had been painted with spray can paint, and it made a huge mess; the gas stripped the paint right off. I was just thanking the Good Lord there had not been a fire, because Marsey was driving, and we did not know there was even a problem until we got home."
John admits for about five months, he would open the hood, get disgusted, and have to walk away from the carnage. He finally decided the only fix was to pull the engine and transmission and do it right, and his sons John Jr. and Tim were all in to help out. However, even more issues became visible once the driveline was out, and John decided to take the full plunge, and put the car on a rotisserie. He and the boys also decided it was time to make it into a dream car.
After all, as part of their high school graduation requirements, they needed a senior project, and restifying this Road Runner was a perfect one. The 440 would not be going back in; instead, John went to Empire Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep in Wilkesboro, and bought a 472-inch Mopar Performance crate Hemi. The idea would be to make it look stock, and the only visible change is a set of tti headers. The rest of the driveline was also upgraded; Skip's Auto reworked a 727 for the increased power, and John opted for a date-correct Sure Grip-equipped Dana 60. However, all that would be a little down the road, as other issues came up.
The '70 had been completely disassembled; even the dash came apart, and every problem was addressed, including weak metal in several places. New steel from AMD allowed them to replace the floor pans, trunk floor, and lower quarters–and get rid of the previous bodywork–and everything remaining was carefully massaged. Final prep was done by the boys and friend Shane Binkley, taking weeks to do the block sanding. The finished shell was then shot right at the Jancic's shop by Binkley, who used a Valspar Z-Base Hemi Orange blended with just a touch of extra red for the final base/clear package. Indeed, Binkley is the one John selected to drive the car when we took our photos. A month later, this car won Best of Show at the Piedmont Mopars club show at Farmington, North Carolina.
This was the first car the family had ever tackled from the ground up. Working in John's well-equipped shop, the boys were doing most of the work themselves in the evenings after school and work responsibilities were done, keeping their teachers abreast of the level of effort going into the project. Having started during Thanksgiving break of 2009, the final screws and bright work were added in early June 2010, with John Jr. and Tim succeeding in completing it for their high school requirements, which all agreed was the 'coolest' in recent memory.
Finding a real 1970 Hemi Road Runner is not impossible (total '70 Road Runner production = 75 hardtops, 74 coupes, three convertibles and 135 Superbirds –Ed.), and John's business has been successful enough that he could likely afford one. What the Jancic family acquired instead was a batch of treasured memories and a finished car they know is done right.
"The Road Runner gave the boys a chance to appreciate all kinds of cars and see what goes into a proper restoration, plus it allowed them to get their graduation stuff done," says John in conclusion. "Of all the '68-'74 muscle cars we have, this will be the last one we ever sell or pass down to somebody else; it's that special."
Fast Facts
'70 Plymouth Road Runner (Hemi tribute)
Car Owners: John and Marsey Jancic
Cleveland, North Carolina
|Mopar Power
|Engine: While the 440 Six Barrel was strong, the Jancics did not have a Hemi musclecar in their collection, and this was a perfect solution. John opted for a ready-to-go package, and talked with Tim Harrold at Wilkesboro's Empire Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep, who ordered him a 500-hp 472-inch crate Hemi right from Mopar Performance. To this was added the right details for a stock 1970 426 Hemi from Mancini Racing, with the only serious change from stock being a set of tti headers.
|Transmission: This car was a factory TorqueFlite machine, and John left the automatic in place, having Skip Martin of Skip's Transmission rework the 727's internals for the big-inch environment and add a 2,800 stall converter.
|Differential: The factory 83⁄4 with Sure-Grip was plenty strong, but the car now hosts a 1970-era Dana 60 with a 4.10 gear.
|Horsepower and Performance: No track time on this one, but we imagine you'd run out of racetrack before you'd run out of motor.
|Sure Grip
|Suspension: Rebuilt to stock specs.
|Brakes: Power front disc, rear drum layout.
|Wheels: Again, in keeping with the Hemi heritage, 15-inch Rallye wheels were put on all four corners, with resto rubber.
|High Impact
|Body: It looked nice, but proved to be only skin deep, so fresh AMD pieces were added by John Jr. and Tim to replace weak metal, and Shane Binkley took 15 days to prep the body for paint. All the cool Road Runner stuff was already on there; John just had to find that rear-facing Hemi hood blister badge.
|Paint: Valspar Z-Base came from Trucolors, a custom blend of Hemi Orange with a little red added for flair; Binkley laid the pigment down in a homemade paint booth.
|Interior: Factory replacement skins by Legendary, with everything inside detailed and rebuilt bolt-by-bolt.
|Special Thanks: John Jr, Tim, and Shane

SC did some thighs a while back with a mustard based marinade and it reminded me of this chicken dealio I put together. I test a lot of recipe in the oven in winter and this one was due to go to the grill.
Here is what you will need...
skin-on bone-in yard bird pieces, I like breasts
2/3 stick salted butter, or more depending on the size of your breasts
a big squirt of Dijon mustard, like 1/4 C or more, I prefer Grey Poupon for this purpose
1 T Stevia in the Raw, no more under any circumstance
2 t curry powder or more to taste
kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
**I think a few dashes of cayenne made this better, but She Who Must Be Obeyed did not share my opinion!
Cleaned and dried breast... dried is very important for crispy skin. I put them on the rack you see and set them back in the fridge for 4 to 6 hours.
The butter is melted and everything but the chicken is mixed in. Then I paint the mixture on the yard bird. The melted butter sort of sets up on the cold chicken. This allows me to get a couple of "coats" on the breasts. So don't feel like you got to get it all on the first time. Go thin and let it cool and then build it up with another pass-- these have about 3 or 4 coats. You can try tossing it, but I didn't find that to be successful. The first cold piece got the most and the rest got less and less. I liked the "brush it on" method for even distribution.
I prepare an indirect 350 degree cooker with a little cherry wood in this case and cook for about 60 to 90 minutes. Until the skin is crispy and the meat is cooked through.
I think deviled eggs are mandatory on Sunday too...
There aren't any photos past here as I was way too busy eating. The skin is supernaturally crisp, the meat tender and juicy, and the curry/mustard flavor is a delectable combination, yet mild enough to be enjoyed by many. This is finger lickin' good!
Thanks for looking and I hope you give it a try.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 6/12/2012 (1720 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A Winnipeg man has admitted fault in a deadly boating accident on the Assiniboine River near The Forks.
Johnny Roy Petriew, 36, pleaded guilty Thursday to dangerous driving under the Criminal Code. He will be sentenced early next year, upon completion of a substance-abuse program he is currently taking at the Behavioural Health Foundation, court was told.
Petriew was originally charged with impaired operation of a vessel and failure to provide breath samples. The Crown has agreed to drop those offences in exchange for his guilty plea. No further details or facts of the plea bargain were provided in court.
Petriew was rescued from the swollen, fast-moving waters of the Assiniboine in May 2011, but his 37-year-old friend did not resurface near the Promenade Bridge. Police say their investigation showed the two men were operating a four-metre aluminium fishing boat with a small-horsepower tiller motor. As the boat approached The Forks Market area the boat capsized and both men, who were not wearing lifejackets, fell into the Assiniboine.
One of the men climbed onto a pile of driftwood, where he was rescued by fire department rescue crews. Witnesses said the second man was swept down the Assiniboine River into the Red River. Police said currents and excessive amounts of flood water flowing on the Assiniboine prevented further police attempts to search for the second man. Boating on Winnipeg rivers was declared illegal at the time due to the dangerous flood waters.
Petriew is no stranger to police, with six previous impaired driving related charges on his record. He was sentenced to 10 months in jail in March 2010 after pleading guilty to drunk driving, driving while disqualified and breaching conditions of his bail by consuming alcohol. The father of two told Provincial Court Judge Linda Giesbrecht at the time was ready to start a new chapter in his life after five previous convictions dating back to 1994, resulting in three stints behind bars.

tnx, with the 3.01 driver the spoonwep2 AND airoscript finaly working with my edimax and dlink rt73 devices.
got backtrack 3final.
Tested on hardware Linksys WUSB54GC rt73 chipset based.
there is new update for rt73 chipset based cards.first download the latest modules.
working with wpa_supplicant.
you need to patch wpa_supplicant
use the next generation rt2x00 driver which is compatible with wpa_supplicant
latest modules of rt73 have in-built private ioctls to support wpa_supplicant like config.
Ok we begin
extract archive
ifconfig rausb0 down
modprobe -r rt73
cd rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.1/module
make && make install
modprobe rt73 ifname=rausb0 or wlan0
(here you can choose the appropriate name according to your choice like wlan0 or rausb0 or eth1 whatever)
now use the iwpriv command to avaliable private ioctls
iwpriv wlan0
bt ~ # iwpriv wlan0
wlan0 Available private ioctls :
set (8BE2) : set 1024 char & get 0
txpower (8BF3) : set 1024 char & get 1024 char
adhocOfdm (8BE6) : set 1 int & get 0
stat (8BE9) : set 1024 char & get 1024 char
get_site_survey (8BEF) : set 1024 char & get 1024 char
get_RaAP_Cfg (8BF1) : set 1024 char & get 0
forceprism (8BF2) : set 1024 char & get 0
rfmontx (8BEC) : set 1024 char & get 0
get_rfmontx (8BED) : set 0 & get 1 int
auth (8BE7) : set 1 int & get 0
enc (8BE8) : set 1 int & get 0
wpapsk (8BEA) : set 64 char & get 0
psm (8BEB) : set 1 int & get 0
you are able to see that we got options like txpower and wpapsk,auth,enc etc to modify the settings.
if you want to set the txpower output.use
ifconfig wlan0 down
modprobe -r rt73
modprobe rt73 txPowerTuning=36 ifname=wlan0
Remember: This value will be ADDED to the default Power stored in the card's EEPROM!
Valid Values for Transmit Power: -6 to 36 (0xFA to 0x24).
I set it on my Linksys WUSB54GC as 36 without problem.
now you can use
it will show the USB NIC interface as newly created wlan0
use airodump-ng wlan0
you will get pwr much more then before.I got amazingly 90 to 110.
now you have options to use and work with WPA/WPA2 networks.
first option as already told use latest rt2x00 drivers from serialmonkey or configure the wlan0 USB NIC as following
b) WPA (802.11g)
wpa_passphrase <essid> <passphrase>
copy the psk hash(uncommented one)
iwconfig wlan0 mode managed
iwpriv wlan0 set AuthMode=WPAPSK
iwpriv wlan0 set WPAPSK=<key> #replace key with your psk-hash
iwpriv wlan0 set EncrypType=TKIP
c) WPA2 (802.11i)
wpa_passphrase <essid> <passphrase>
copy the psk hash(uncommented one)
iwpriv wlan0 set AuthMode=WPA2PSK
iwpriv wlan0 set WPAPSK=<KEY> #replace key with your psk-hash
iwpriv wlan0 set EncrypType=AES
Check that you're associated with an AP
iwconfig wlan0
if you want to patch wpa_supplicant for rt73 chipset you need to patch
the wpa_supplicant file to work with rt73 based chipset
download wpa_Supplicant & patch files here.
tar xzf wpa_supplicant-0.5.7.tar.gz
cd wpa_supplicant-0.5.7
patch -p1 < wpa_supplicant-ralink_rt73.patch
patch -p1 < wpa_supplicant-ralink_rt73-fix.patch
# install as usual, e.g.
cp wpa_cli wpa_supplicant /usr/local/bin
configure using wpa_supplicant(other users who looking for wpa_supplicant config. can try this)
use these commands
wpa_passphrase <essid> <passphrase>
bt ~ # wpa_passphrase thunderbolt backtrack3
psk=7b8e62496b86b7eba28199fd9af1f560a8503b7ede9149 bd2f42e42e631bedb0
copy the psk-hash
for configuring wpa_supplicant
nano /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
edit it

tnx, with the 3.01 driver the spoonwep2 AND airoscript finaly working with my edimax and dlink rt73 devices.
got backtrack 3final.
i have following problems:
1. i'm a linux noob (ok, time will solve the problem ;-) )
2. i'm on a virtual machine running bt3final. i downloaded the package to root folder, extracted with arc, then in konsole i go to #module and type "make". following error apears:
bt Module # make
make: *** /lib/modules/18.104.22.168/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
rt73.ko failed to build!
make: *** [module] Error 1
when i'm on bt3final_usb.iso in this virtual machine everything works fine for me with this install procedure.
tell me: what is the NOOB doin' wrong? ;-)
On the live CD version of BT3 the kernel headers, which is what you need here, are stripped out for BT3 to fit onto a single CD. You can however download them at the following location:
After downloading use the following command:
lzm2dir kernel.lzm /
This should sort out the problems you are having.
-Monkeys are like nature's humans.
quick and short:
ok, now it works under the bt3final.iso with the kernel headers.
thanks a lot, i'll keep on learning ;-)
Hi this is my first post, i have searched around for an answer to this but have had no luck.
ive followed the guide above and updated the rt73 drivers and set txpower to 36. with no problems
im trying to connect to my WPA-PSK network but not having any success.
iwconfig rausb0 mode managed
iwpriv rausb0 set AuthMode=WPAPSK
iwpriv rausb0 set WPAPSK=...pasted from wpa_passphrase..
iwpriv rausb0 set EncrypType=TKIP
iwconfig rausb0 then shows the essid but the encryption key there is either none or a completely different hash! so i obviously cant get an ip with dhcpcd
Can someone give me a little help out with this please im lost as to why the keys showing as different?
i havnt tried patching wpa_supplicant as mentioned in the guide as i obviously have no internet connection with backtrack. well unless i switch the router to WEP which i dont really want.
Great tutorial, thanks.
Did you try loading kwlan then
Also, not sure if it helps but did you try the key in "" marks?Code:wpa_supplicant -i rausb0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf - d rt73 -w
Great tutorial secure_it thanks!
I'm trying to install the new driver as per the tutorial (BT3F installed to hdd) and keep running up against the following issue. I have extracted the driver to /tmp. Every time I try to run "cd /rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.1/module I get "No such file or directory".
I'm assuming that its a permissions thing but I can't work out what I need to change and how!
you are logged in as root, I doupt it could be a permissions issue. Try /tmp/rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.1/ since you say you extracted it to the /tmp folder.

FAIRFIELD, Ohio (AP) -- Police think they know who fatally stabbed a 15-year-old girl two years ago in southwest Ohio, though no one has been charged in her death.
Fairfield Officer Doug Day told reporters Wednesday that police are confident they know who killed Chelsea Johnson. The Fairfield girl went missing in April 2012. Her body was later found near a creek.
Police did not say why the person they suspect in the killing has not been charged.
Media outlets report that a 24-year-old man was convicted of offering Johnson drugs in exchange for sex near the time of her death, but he was not charged in the slaying.
A vigil was held at Johnson's gravesite over the weekend.
Fairfield is about 20 miles north of Cincinnati.

Custom Made Theatre Presents the Bay Area Premiere of Christopher DurangÂ's WHY TORTURE IS WRONG, AND THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE THEM 1/11-2/10
Custom Made Theatre presents the Bay Area premiere of Christopher Durang's Why Torture is Wrong, and the People who Love Them. This highly original black comedy centers around a young woman who suspects that her new husband -- whom she married while drunk -- may be a terrorist. Durang, the crown prince of American absurdists, spins a mirthful, politically infused tale full of outrageous characters. Directed by Claire Rice at Gough Street Playhouse, 1622 Gough Street, San Francisco, January 11 – February 10, 2013.
Why Torture is Wrong…is a hilarious, absurdist offering from the author of Beyond Therapy and Sister Mary Ignatius Explains it All For You.
Directed by Claire Rice
Featuring Jeannie Brick, Christopher P. Kelly, Sal Mattos, Eden Neuendorf, Paul Stout, and Teri Whipple.
Scenic Design by Joshua Saulpaw
Costumes by Amanda Lee Angott
Lighting by Maxx Kurzunski
In Torture… , Durang tells the story of a young woman in crisis: Is her new husband, whom she married when drunk, a terrorist? Or just crazy? Or both? Is her father's hobby of butterfly collecting really a cover for his involvement in a shadow government? Does her mother go to the theater frequently to seek mental escape, or is she just insane? Add in a minister who directs porno and a ladylike operative whose underwear just won't stay up, and this black comedy will make you laugh all the way to the waterboarding room.
Although the play carries the aura of revelations of U. S. Government-sanctioned torture during the height of the "War on Terror," Durang denies that he has created any parallels to historical figures. In an interview with the New York Times, "Durang railed against Mr. Bush, Mr. Cheney, Mr. Yoo and others at great length, though none of his characters were based on them."
"'Once I came upon the shadow government idea for the play, I really did think of Cheney, because he was fairly secretive,' Mr. Durang said. 'But I also was choosing not to base the people on Bush and Cheney, because I thought that would tie me down too much.'"

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 12/11/2012 (1743 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
WINNIPEG — Winnipeg Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec won't be returning to the Czech League when play resumes this week.
The website iSport.cz has reported that Pavelec's contract with the Liberec Tigers has expired and wasn't going to be renewed after the current international hockey break in Europe.
The goalie was quoted as saying, "I had a contract to Nov. 4, and now that I saw that the NHL season could be saved, I think I'll probably go back to Canada," in a translation.
But if the NHL season turns out to be toast, he wasn't ruling out a return to Europe, making it sound like there are irons in the fire with Spartak.
In Liberec, Pavelec was not much better than terrible, with a 4-10 record, an .896 save percentage and a 3.50 goals against average.
He played much better in the Karjala Cup in Finland last week, with a GAA of 0.50 as Czech Republic won all three of its games.
If Pavelec is headed to Canada, it may afford him the opportunity for the face-to-face meeting he promised to have with Jets GM Kevein Cheveldayoff.
The Jets, you'll recall, signed Pavelec to a new five-year contract in late June, before it was revealed that he had been convicted in his home country of drinking and driving in May.
When those details became public, he apologized to fans in a statement and said he would clear the air with team management "soon."
Jets captain Andrew Ladd said this morning he had not yet heard if Pavelec was returning to Winnipeg.
While unsure about the Jets goalie, Ladd was a little more hopeful he'd be seeing Jets defenceman Toby Enstrom by week's end. Enstrom is believed to have left his Austrian team in Salzberg.

Where's the Gold? IIMystery teasers are little stories where you need to figure out what happened based on the given clues.
Bob Sr. the alchemist had recently died. He invented only one magic potion, the Cingumbulating Stone 2001. It had the power to make any metal into gold (just like the Philosopher's Stone). It was nowhere to be seen. However, he seemed to have left instructions on how to make it:
Take 12 toenails,
Add 5 nincompoops,
Mix that with 14 salads.
Next add 9 icicles,
2 dead frogs,
And 6 wet rocks.
Finally, put 14 cats in,
Along with 12 ace of spades,
7 diamond bracelets,
And 9 monkeys' paws.
His son, Bob Jr., will not receive the inheritance of the ultimate stone if he cannot figure out this puzzle. Can you help him?
HintSimilar to my first "Where's the Gold?" teaser. Are they really instructions?
The numbers in each line are VERY important.
AnswerThe stone was inside Bob's cane.
The number (n) in each line represent the nth character to take. For example, the "12" in the first line means you must take the 12th character in the line. Commas count as characters. Taking the corresponding character from each line leaves us with "insidecane". Put a space in to get "inside cane."

Who wants to be my friend? Anyone?
Fine! Then you're not got getting a friendship bracelet from me. I'm sorry but that's the new rule around here. LOL.
OK…that's really not the rule, but you should grab one for you and your BFF. I bought this Lauinger bracelet from Aldo yesterday. I kind of feel like I'm 12 again.
I only plan on wearing them with a casual outfit. Wait…did I just by myself my own friendship bracelet? Well, I am my own best friend.
If you don't want a style like this one, take a peek below. The Juicy Couture bracelet is pretty cute.
You can even dress them up! Look at this great DIY my friend Kelsi from Dedicated Follower of Fashion created.
What do you think?
Are friendship bracelets for you?

The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale or (PANSS) is a standard rating scale used for measuring symptom reduction of schizophrenia patients.
The scale has 30 items, each assessed on a seven-point scale from absent to extreme. It is divided into sub-scales covering both positive PANSS-P and negative symptoms PANSS-N.
It is widely used in the study of psychosis.
The name refers to the syndrome of positive symptoms, meaning those symptoms of disease that manifest as the presence of traits, and the syndrome of negative symptoms, meaning those symptoms that manifest as the absence of traits.

IT'S not often this season that Swindon Town have played badly at home.
This weekend was perhaps the Robins' poorest effort at the County Ground In 2013/14. Somehow, they still won.
Two late goals – from Nile Ranger and new signing Michael Smith – put a very superficial gloss on a performance that matched the weather in SN1, at times drab, on occasion downright miserable.
Shrewsbury Town, well drilled given their awful recent form and the fact they lost their manager Graham Turner in the days leading up to the game, will feel rightly aggrieved not to have returned to Shropshire without at least a point. They probably deserved all three.
But if Swindon are to make the League One play-offs, and this victory left them five points off the top six, Lady Luck is going to have to treat them favourably. Good fortune certainly helped the home side, with Asa Hall hitting the crossbar with a free header six yards out, while Town goalkeeper Wes Foderingham produced a heroic display of shot-stopping to keep his team level after Paul Parry's thunderbolt free-kick had cancelled out Smith's 30th-minute opener.
The Shrews battled hard but Swindon still prevailed in heavy rain and high winds that had the Arkell's Stand roof bouncing up and down like a panlid concealing a boiling broth.
Town fans' tempers certainly simmered and many vented their frustrations at a midfield that lost their way in difficult conditions and a central defensive pairing that dillied and dallied recklessly in their own final third.
Nevertheless, three points was still the outcome. Somehow. A minor miracle, perhaps, but one gleefully received.
Swindon manager Mark Cooper made two changes to his starting line-up handing Smith a full debut in place of Ranger, who had been struggling during the week with illness. Ranger dropped to the bench, where he was joined by latest signing Jamie Reckord. Nathan Byrne replaced the injured Grant Hall and joined Smith and Alex Pritchard in a front three.
Smith looked a handful during the opening exchanges and he created the game's first sight of goal for himself in the eighth minute, barging his way to the near post to head Pritchard's corner over the Shrewsbury crossbar.
Within two minutes the visitors had tested Foderingham for the first time. Darren Ward's slapdash pass led to a Shrews corner, from which Parry found Joe Jacobson and the left-back's looping header was easily saved by Foderingham.
The game was leaping and bounding from end to end in the first quarter of an hour. In the 12th minute, Swindon were presented with a terrific opportunity to nudge in front when Ryan Mason was tripped on the edge of the Shrewsbury area but Pritchard could only send the resulting free-kick into the Town End.
Despite having lost their manager Turner during the week, Shrewsbury were well organised and Swindon, much to the home crowd's discontent, struggled to break them down in midfield.
With the ball bouncing between the halfway line and the edge of their own D, Town looked a little bereft of ideas and, though they had control of possession, territorially they were making little progress.
Shrewsbury may have only got hold of the ball for short spells but during those isolated periods they looked dangerous. Jon Taylor forced Foderingham into a good save at his near post in the 23rd minute and, 60 seconds later, Smith hacked Tom Eaves's flicked header off the line as Town hang on to parity.
It took Town 28 minutes to muster their first effort on target, Byrne cutting in from the right to fire at Weale, but two minutes later they found a way in front.
Yaser Kasim and Pritchard worked a short corner on the right and when Kasim eventually got the ball across goal Smith was there to pounce on a bouncing ball and hook it past Weale. It was a poacher's finish from Smith, who had looked lively throughout the first half.
Eaves resorted to the spectacular in an attempt to bring the Shrews back into the game within a minute of the restart and Foderingham was rooted to the spot as he watched the striker's volleyed snapshot fizz inches over his crossbar.
Although they had barely had a ration of the possession, Shrewsbury's performance was such that they fully deserved to be on level terms at the break and they clawed their way back into the contest with a minute of the opening period remaining.
Town were livid that Raphael Branco was penalised for an alleged foul on Taylor on the edge of the box but Parry didn't care about the home side's qualms and he crashed a fierce drive past Foderingham to equalise for the Shrews.
With the rain lashing down and high winds threatening to lift the top of the Arkell's Stand and the Town End, Swindon almost hit straight back, only for Weale to paw the ball away from the feet of the onrushing Smith after he spilled Pritchard's initial shot.
Neither side could get into a rhythm after the break and it took 17 minutes for the game to rediscover any of its entertainment value.
Town were the beneficiaries of a massive let-off just after the hour mark, when Hall somehow contrived to nod a free header onto the crossbar from six yards out, and then had Foderingham to thank five minutes later as the home keeper leapt to his right to push Parry's ferocious drive against a post.
Swindon were struggling to find any sort of fluency and, with their own fans starting to get on their backs, Ranger was introduced by Cooper as he tried to inspire his team.
Luongo flashed an effort past Weale's right-hand post in the 71st minute as the Robins pushed hard for a second and sent an almost identical attempt wide again moments later, but while Swindon were having to resort to speculative shots at goal, Shrewsbury were carving out real opportunities.
When Ward dallied on the ball inside his own box, Eaves robbed him of the ball and only an excellent save by Foderingham, one on one with the Shrews striker, kept Town on level terms.
At the other end Pritchard curled at Weale as the home fans started to settle for a point. Thankfully, Ranger didn't.
In the 89th minute Weale failed to get a full connection to his punch from a Pritchard corner, the ball shot high into the air inside the Shrews' box and Ranger jumped highest to nod home.
With Shrewsbury's resolve flattened, Town rubbed salt into their guests' wounds with another goal in stoppage time. Ranger turned creator, selflessly playing in Smith to slide the ball underneath Weale.
It was flattery of the highest order and didn't the home crowd enjoy it.
Cooper said after the game: "I'm pleased to get three points. It was an atrocious day for football, especially with the way we try to play. The most frustrating part for me was letting them score a goal just before half-time, when they hadn't really threatened.
"That made the game more difficult than it should have been. In the second half we had to change it. We changed the shape, put the strikers on and went to a diamond to try to win the game. We weren't pretty today but we got it done. I know the fans got frustrated but sometimes, when you win nearly every week at home, it's going to be difficult to do that, but we got it done.
"I thought at times we played some decent stuff, as did Shrewsbury, but there were too many silly mistakes, too many wrong decisions but it was three points. On days like this you've just got to get three points.
"I told everybody what Michael was about. He's honest, he works his socks off and he can score a goal. He's done that this season already and he's got two today. I'm pleased he's got off the mark so quickly and hopefully he'll go from strength to strength."

Aerodynamics seems to be shaping most cars these days. And for sedans and coupes, that means a sharply raked rear window, which, in turn, translates to a relatively small trunk opening, making it hard to insert and remove large objects. An easy solution to this problem is the hatchback. Long popular in Europe, this extremely functional body style is under-appreciated here in the U.S.
Ironically, one of my favorite hatchbacks started the European car craze as a rear-engined coupe. When the Beetle was resurrected by VW in the late '90s, however, it appeared as a front-engined, front-wheel-drive hatchback. To their credit, VW designers did a great job of updating the look of the New Beetle. Now after almost 15 years of the New Beetle, we have the new New Beetle, which is wider, longer, and with a flat roof and Porsche-esque tail lights. The Porsche nuances make sense since the first Porsches evolved from the old Beetle. The roofline actually reminds me of the roofline of the old Beetle convertible.
The biggest benefit of the exterior changes, particularly the flattening of the roofline, is the increased head room for back-seat passengers. Adults can now sit in the back seat without having to bow their heads. There's even a decent amount of leg room, as well, if the front seat passengers scoot up a bit. Heated front seats are firm and moderately bolstered, with plenty of room in all directions. The manual tilt/telescoping flat-bottomed steering wheel adds a sporty flair, as do the three dash-top gauges that display oil temp, turbo boost and a stopwatch. Rear cargo room is quite generous for such a small car, and becomes really large with the rear seats folded. The aforementioned hatchback opening makes loading and unloading even bulky objects a breeze. Ventilation controls are three rotary-knob-simple, though the controls and console felt a bit flimsy. The screen for audio controls is touch screen, which makes it easy to use, and a variety of optional sound systems can provide some serious tunes. The optional electric sunroof contributes to driving fun.
The base Beetle has a 2.5-liter, 5-cylinder, 170-horsepower engine mated to a 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. The 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder pumps out 200 horsepower through either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed DSG automatic with paddle shifters. A-2.0 liter diesel also is available. With the turbo, gas mileage is 22 city, 30 highway. All cars have stability control, ABS and anti-slip regulation. Acceleration with the turbo is brisk, especially in sport mode, with just a hint of turbo lag. Quite a change from the old Beetle, where zero to 60 times were measured on a calendar. Combined with good brakes and a tight, sporty suspension with responsive steering, the turbo Beetle truly is a fun car to drive.
Brad Gilbert, sales manager at Bommarito Volkswagen in Hazelwood says, "The new Beetle is designed to appeal to a broader range of buyers. It's lower, wider and longer—appealing more to men with its more aggressive, tighter and sportier suspension."
The base new Beetle starts at approximately $20,000; $24,000 for the turbo.
Another sporty hatchback is the Mini Sport Coupe. A two-seater, the interior is cozy, but there's a good amount of cargo area, which is easily accessed by the rear hatch. The most remarkable feature of the sport coupe is its funny roof, which looks like a rearward facing baseball cap.
Once you get past the boy racer looks, though, the interior of the Mini is like a cockpit for serious drivers. With only two seats, and a pass-through to the rear cargo area, no interior room is wasted, but there's plenty of room for two and the open cargo area prevents claustrophobia. In typical Mini fashion, a huge speedometer dominates the dash, with a tachometer strapped on top the steering column. The heated seats are well-bolstered to hold you in place during spirited driving. Window controls are on the center console instead of the doors, which takes some adjustment. Ventilation is controlled by two dials and a rotary knob, which are fairly easy to use, but the dials were sometimes a bit tricky to adjust precisely while driving. Radio controls also are easy to use. There is a little space behind the seats in front of the cargo area for a briefcase or purse so long as they're not too wide.
The Mini Cooper S Coupe is powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, which churns out 181 horsepower to the front wheels via a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic. With the turbo engine, zero to 60 times are less than seven seconds; and gas mileage is 26 city, 35 highway. The sleek roof, which is lower than the standard roof, lowers the center of gravity, which makes an already great-handling vehicle even better. The best feature of the Mini Coupe is its steering, which is nice and tight, allowing for great road feel—which, combined with good brakes and an excellent tight suspension, makes the driving experience extremely sporty and fun. A rear spoiler pops up at about 50 mph, which is sporty and helps handling, but also blocks rearward vision. The automatic transmission has a manual shifting mode with steering wheel mounted paddle shifters, but the true manual would be the optimal transmission to maximize the Mini Coupe's sporting nature.
Salesman Mark Eversgerd of Mini of St. Louis says the Mini coupe is a great deal. "You can have a ton of fun and still get 32 mpg. For about $32,000 fully loaded (base $26,000), you get the handling and performance of cars costing $50,000-plus."
So if you're looking for a fun-to-drive car with the practicality and utility of an easy-to-load, functional cargo area, the Beetle and Mini—both updates of '60s icons—are hard to beat.

If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram then you've probably noticed that I've done a bit of traveling over the past few weeks. And all I can think about is what I could use to make my trips a little bit easier and a lot more comfortable! That's why I've compiled a little travel (kind of luxury) wish list…
Tumi Tegra-Lite™ – International Carry-On: The carry-on luggage I currently own is at least 15 years-old. Yeah…I think it's time for a new one. This one is durable, lightweight, and it has a TSA-integrated locking system that allows only TSA agents to access your bag during inspection.
Nordstrom Cashmere Blend Eyelash Wrap: I always take a pashmina wrap with me on a flight. It just makes sense, especially when a lot of flights no longer offer blankets or normally run out. And you can't go wrong with cashmere-light and warm.
Beats by Dr. Dre 'Solo®' High Definition On-Ear Headphones: Sometimes those little earbuds don't cut out a lot of the sound on flights. If you're trying to watch a movie or listen to music, that screaming baby is only a seat away. I'd need these to make it all go away.
Ellen Tracy Travel Trench Coat: I've always wanted a lightweight trench coat that's easy to pack. This one is that and it's chic! I love the olive color too, it makes it really versatile.
Tiffany & Co. Passport Cover: Tiffany…need I say more? OK…this is a total splurge, but if I'm going to travel the world I might as well present and protect my passport in style.
REI Cushioned Eye Mask and Earplugs Set: Yes, I want to be one of those passengers on the plane. Eye mask on…earplugs in.
UGG Lattice Cardy Boots: When I travel in chillier temps, I make sure to wear my UGGS. They're easy to slip on and off when I go through security, they're comfy, and they keep my toes warm. I chose this style because they're cute.

In the previous part, I explained the value of keeping record of all parameters in your ceramic work. The example given of a firing diagram is particularly valuable to master your kiln, especially if, like me, you use a simple, manually controlled gas kiln. Combustion kilns can be very 'moody' and therefore these recordings help you to get acquainted with your kiln.
This time, I will briefly discuss and show one aspect of the glaze chemistry.
Michael Baily's very interesting book "Glazes Cone 6" ( A&C Black -London / University of Pennsylvania Press) inspired me to adopt his viewpoints to predict the appearance of a glaze.
From the unity formula, the (molar-) quantities of different ingredients expressed as oxides can tell you a lot.
However, to make life easier, it is often sufficient to plot the Si/Al values in a graph and from where the plotted points appear, to obtain a good idea how your glaze may look.
I am a chemist, but you don't need deep chemistry knowledge to make the graphs and to interpret them. The only thing you need is the Unity Formula or only the Alumina and Silica molar parts.
In the example given here, one will discover that glaze B 123 is definitely an Alumina matt. Glazes B 210 and B 186a will be Alkaline Earth matts or, especially B 186a a satin - High Alkaline Earth matt. In turn, glaze B 215 will probably be a glossy gaze - on the edge of being satin.
One has to be aware that those readings are approximations, as a lot will depend on how they are fired. Long or short holding periods, steep or flat heating curves, accidental reduction and many others may alter the results.
Keeping this information for each ceramic piece you make will help you to refine your work.
I recommend to go to my website and push the button 'Chemistry Ceramics'. It is a good introduction to ceramics and about its chemistry.
(It is a quite big PowerPoint presentation)
In Part III, I will briefly discuss Ternary graphs of Fluxes, Amphoteric and Glass formers.

Thanks for posting the chart. I recommend Michael Bailey's ^6 Glaze book too. The concept of how Alumina /silica ratio influences the surface texture is a basic in understanding glazes.

TOMBALL, Texas - The Gutierrez family from Tomball was supposed to leave on Thursday for an overnight stay in New Braunfels and a trip to the Schlitterbahn water park, but some bogus tickets on Craigslist forced them to cancel their vacation.
"The kids were pretty disappointed but what can you do?" said Carl Gutierrez.
He and his wife have five kids and were looking to save money on tickets so they turned to Craigslist. They found a man selling seven for $175, seven regular priced day tickets typically run about $320.
"He assured her that they were legitimate he even sent a receipt from Schlitterbahn," Gutierrez said. "Everything looked like it was on the up and up."
Until Carl's wife called the water park to confirm the tickets, she said workers informed her they had already been used.
It appears the Craigslist seller made multiple copies of a real ticket that he bought online. There's a bar code at the bottom that is only good for one use and, according to Gutierrez, these tickets had already been scanned.
"They told her the tickets had already been used, they were no longer valid," Gutierrez said. "I thought I was somewhat savvy when it comes to this kind of stuff. I'm familiar with the internet and Craigslist and all the bad stuff that goes on."
Schlitterbahn has a warning on their website telling customers that tickets purchased through a third party are not authorized. A spokesperson told KPRC Local 2 the best way to find deals is to call the water park directly or purchase tickets through HEB or Kroger grocery stores. Buying tickets online, from someone you don't know, is never a good idea.
"I figured I would be able to avoid something like this," said Gutierrez. "But anybody can fall victim. The scam artists are getting better and better."

Hyperosmolar nonketotic coma occurs in people with diabetes. It is a life-threatening event. Seek medical attention right away if you think you have any symptoms of an impending hyperosmolar nonketotic coma.
Hyperosmolar nonketotic coma is a complication of very high blood glucose levels. Blood glucose often rises to these levels because of an illness or infection.
The body will try to get rid of the extra blood glucose through the urine. The frequency and volume of urination will increase. Unfortunately, this process also washes out other substances in your blood. Some of these substances are important to your brain. Low levels of these substances can lead to seizures, coma, and eventually death.
The chance of hyperosmolar nonketotic coma is higher in older adults.
Other factors that may increase your chance of hyperosmolar nonketotic coma include having diabetes and:
Symptoms that may occur before the hyperosmolar nonketotic coma may include:
If you arrive at the hospital in a hyperosmolar nonketotic coma, your vital signs will be monitored. The levels of glucose and other substances in your blood will be tested with:
An electrocardiogram (EKG) may also be done to check your heart's electrical activity.

You will likely need treatment in the emergency room and/or the intensive care unit at the hospital. Treatment will focus on restoring the correct balance of substances in your blood, including glucose. Treatment may include:
You may need additional treatment, such as antibiotics, if an infection led to the coma.

Looking for something new to put on the grill this weekend, I happen along on the Maple Smoked Turkey breast from BBQ USA.
Steven's recipe called for a 4-5 lbs bone in breast, but all the store had was a 7.5 lbs, okay that just means a second meal during the week.
Rubbed the breast the night before (turkey breast that is ) got the egg set up for indirect, kept the one side of the grate open so I can feed wood chunks:
After the first basting, maple syrup and melted butter.... about 45 minutes in:
Done and sampled!!! I couldn't believe the color and the juicy-ness this was one fine turkey breast.
Hand plenty left over, which we will used for some awesome Turkey Club sandwiches later on in the week. Sliced it as think as I could"
Great recipe, I will use something like this for Thanksgiving, the turkey was a big hit at the dinner table.

Sun poison
ok...my friend is lying down right now(very weak like) and we think she may have sun-poisoning but we aren`t too sure! Her face is all red because we went to Geauga Lake yesterday...but now she has like, white blisters on her face. we gave her benydril(s/p)but it doesnt seem to really help!and we put triple antibyotic cream on her face. im not sure if it has worked yet b/c we JUST put it on her! you`re website seems to be the place where i can understand the most and you can really help. so can you help us know if it is sun-poison.
It's hard to tell without seeing your friend but it sounds like she has a severe sunburn not sun poisoning.
There are two reactions that commonly are referred to as "sun poisoning".
The first is called Polymorphous Light Eruption and looks like a skin rash. Women are more likely to get this than men. It occurs in susceptible individuals when they are exposed to sunlight that is more intense than usual, for example as in the first time you go out in the sun during the summer or when you expose a body part to sunlight that has no prior sunlight exposure. It may also occur if you travel to a higher latitude or lower latitude such as to a country closer to the equator where the sunlight has more strength. Normally the resulting skin-rash reaction heals within 7-10 days with no treatment as long as additional sun exposure is avoided. In the future using sunscreen that protects against UVA and UVB rays is mandatory. (Sunlight is made up of UVA and UVB rays). Make sure the sunscreen protects against both UVB and UVA since these protective agents are more effective in preventing these breakouts.
The second is called Solar Urticaria. It is a rare reaction to sun exposure. This is a true sun allergy. It develops rapidly--moments after exposure, the skin begins to itch, and then becomes red. Wheals or vesicles appear (red patches and blisters). The actual mechanism that causes this reaction is unknown, however, antihistamines are effective in treating the reactions of some patients.
The blisters you are seeing is a response to too much sun. They should go down in about 48-72 hours. As long as she doesn't have any health issues, taking ibuprofen will help with the discomfort. Try not to pop the blisters because that could predispose her to infection. If the blisters do not go down, get worse or appear infected (don't have a clear fluid in them) have her visit her physician. In the future, sunscreen, protective clothing and staying out of direct sunlight between 10-3 will prevent this from happening again.

Ex-fans line up to dump Hernandez jerseys
Published: Saturday, July 6, 2013 at 4:57 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 6, 2013 at 4:57 p.m.
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Hundreds of one-time fans are trading in their Aaron Hernandez jerseys.
The New England Patriots are letting fans trade in their No. 81 jerseys for a different one on Saturday and Sunday.
The ex-Patriots tight end has been charged with the murder in the death of 27-year-old semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. He has pleaded not guilty.
The Patriots released Hernandez shortly after he was arrested on June 26.
Team spokesman Stacey James says children love wearing Patriots gear but may not understand why their parents don't want them wearing Hernandez's jersey.
The jerseys must have been purchased at the team shop at Gillette Stadium or its online store.
The official Twitter handle of the team, @Patriots, tweeted on Saturday: "As of 5 pm, @PatriotsProShop has received nearly 1,200 Hernandez jersey exchanges. Most popular replacements: Wilfork, Brady, Jones & Ridley."
