Rubbermaid® 48Qt Victory Cooler w/$10 Rebate for $10
*Item number 19 on rebate form
Free Ship to Store
9 Comments add a comment
That's a great deal!
Great deal....buy an extra for the guy who always sits on your cooler.
was gonna jump on 1 or 2 of these, but the closest Ace that accepts site-to-store shipping is way too far to drive. And the shipping was almost $20. Bummer. Great post though!
@uberchurl: I hate that guy almost as much as I hate "Guy who keeps forgetting where he left his beer so he just gets another one". "GWKFWHLHBSOHGAO", results in your finding 3-4 full warms beers in random areas of your home during clean up the next day.
You don't just treat beer like that man, they never got the chance to be turned into pee (wipes away tear)
I think it may be expired.. the link returns an empty search and doing another search, the 48qt is no longer listed.
Take note that this deal is only available through July 4th.
@scottagnew101: You pay $20 in store, and then the rebate is $10. I just picked one up on my lunch hour.
eta: Also, the checkout person gave me the rebate form. Not sure if all stores do that, or if you should expect to have to print one out from the Ace website.
@druke: Yeah, I think it was mis-priced.
@druke: It is available again!!! Great Deal!

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - A criminal charge has been dismissed against a West Virginia student who refused a teacher's order to remove a National Rifle Association T-shirt he wore to school.
Logan County Circuit Judge Eric O'Briant signed an order dismissing an obstruction charge Thursday against 14-year-old Jared Marcum stemming from an April 18 incident at Logan Middle School.
Marcum's attorney, Ben White, said after a review of statements from a police officer and the school's principal during a preliminary hearing, he and a prosecutor agreed that creating a criminal record for Marcum wasn't a good idea. White said Marcum would eventually like to enlist in the military.
"I think the right outcome was achieved," White said Friday.
Prosecutor John Bennett didn't immediately return a phone message.
Marcum's stepfather, Allen Larieris, has said the eighth-grader was waiting in line in the school cafeteria when a teacher ordered him to remove the T-shirt or turn it inside out. Marcum refused and was taken under physical restraint to the school office, where an officer told him to "sit down and shut up," according to White.
Marcum was charged because "he sat down ... but kept trying to tell his side of the story," White said. "Jared didn't understand he was (eventually) going to be given an opportunity to give his side of the story."
White said school officials told him Marcum's one-day suspension was appropriate because he was being disruptive. White disputed that suggestion, saying Marcum was exercising his free speech rights and his support for the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms. White also said the T-shirt did not violate the school's dress code.
White said he still plans to file a lawsuit on Marcum's behalf against the school district.
The Associated Press typically does not identify juveniles who face criminal charges, but Marcum and his family wanted his name and case known.

I changed my "Default Account" in Mail Preferences:
And this changes my default "from" address when I send an email from (say) the Twitter app
But when I use the Mail app to send an email, it uses my old "from" address by default.
If you are creating a new message, then the "default" account will be used. If you are replying to a message in another account, that account will be used as the "from:" address.
It sounds to me like you want to reply to a message received on (say) Hotmail and have the message come "from" a new GMail address. This is not possible to do by default; you will need to change the "from" address manually.
It seems to be related to the order that the email accounts were created into iOS. If you look at the order of the Accounts in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars you will see what I mean.
I don't know of any way to reorder these, except by deleting them and adding them back in the order you want.
I'm using iOS 5.0.1 and I'm not seeing your issue at all (iPhone 4 - UK - O2)
If I set the default to account A new mail inside does default to using the email address on A. if I change it to account B, newly composed emails goes from the email on account B.
replies to emails defaults to the email address on the account the email was received in. If account A is the default, and an email is received in account B, the from address will default to account B unless you change it whilst composing the reply.
For me, this happened because of faulty settings in the outgoing server panel applicable to the particular account. Failing the desired server, mail went to another server, with that server's email sending address. Resolved by deleting all the Mail accounts on the device, then transferring Mail account info from my computer back to the device via iTunes connection (see Info panel on iTunes).
This appears to be a "feature" in IOS7. It's been called Smart Mail Account Selection by this author: http://www.infoworld.com/d/mobile-technology/7-hidden-gems-in-ios-7-226957?page=0,0
Apparently Apple feels it knows better than you what email address you want to appear. I have not been able to get this to change no matter what order the accounts have been added. There doesn't seem to be a way to change the setting either. My son has 2 email addresses. He once sent me an email from one of them to an email address I rarely use. Now, every time I try to send an email to him at that email address, the Mail app changes my From address to that rarely used one. I'm hoping that if I manually change it enough it will "learn" that I prefer the other one, because I seem to have no other control over this. I have spent hours scouring the web for a way to modify this behavior, but have found nothing.
The auto switching of the default account to the non-default account was happening to me and it was frustrating.
I think I may have figured out the problem: Google Sync. A day after I turned off my Google Sync setting (I think it said it may take 24 hours to update), the auto-switching sender problem was solved for me.
instead of going into All Inboxes; go into the Exchange or yahoo email box for example; the from: will be the one you want when you create new emails.

Over the vast years of collecting bricks of various sizes and sets, I find that during my free builds I run low on a specific type. How can I go about identifying what the brick is named and what resources are available for this identification process>
The problem here is that fans started to name parts way before LEGO started to make its internal part names a bit more public. As such, there are various naming conventions around, including:
If you know which set your part comes from, the easiest way is to look at the inventory of that set on Peeron or BrickLink (depending on which name you're after — for building or illustrating, use peeron; for buying or selling, use BrickLink).
If you don't know... just take a pic of it and ask here, we'll find it :-)
Almost all parts have their part number embossed on them which can be used on these services to search for part, however it's often quite small and hard to read ;)

Seat TimeWritten by on September 17, 2012 S/S-Inspired Butt Buckets For Street or Strip
We've heard it was Ed Pink who said, "If you throw a part in the air and it comes down, it's too heavy." We're having a lot of fun making a lightweight out of our '57 Chevrolet 150 Handyman wagon. Besides ditching the front bumper and inner fenders, we've lightened our load with fiberglass fenders, hood, doors, and rear bumper. We also have original radio-, heater-, and clock-delete plates instead of those respectively heavy Chevy accessories. The next item on our weight-reduction plan was the original bench seat. We knew it had to go, so we started shopping for used alternatives to a generic set of new, high-back plastic buckets.
What we've always considered the ideal nostalgia-race-car seats are those bolted into '60s Mopar Max Wedge and Hemi Super Stockers. In our humble opinion, these awesome cars were the "take-no-prisoners" champs among factory hot rods. While competitive brands also produced special "lightweights" with aluminum front ends (or Swiss-cheesed frames, in the case of Pontiac's Catalina), they were still too heavy to compete against Chrysler's unibodies, though we'll give a tip of the hat to Ford's Thunderbolt. The Mopars took things a few steps further, using aluminum doors with a length of the seatbelt for the window-lift mechanism and a set of small bucket seats from Dodge's A-100 van mounted on fabricated aluminum risers. For good measure, a hole saw was taken to the risers (which apparently came back down when Chrysler engineers threw an undrilled model up in the air).
Because the S/S seat combo has always tripped our trigger, it seemed like a natural for the dieting Widow Wagon. Still found in junkyards, A-100 buckets are readily available if you keep an eye out, either crawling the yards yourself or checking Craigslist and eBay. Moreover, because they're somewhat popular with Mopar restorers, reproduction seat covers can also be had. We bartered with a friend for a pair of worn A-100 units and got started on their restoration—or so we thought. Obviously, 45-year-old seats would need new foam and skins. We started hunting repro seat buns and found that they aren't offered anywhere. The only option is creating new buns out of dense jute, which isn't exactly cheap and doesn't fit as well as real seat foam. But we were not discouraged—that is until we priced the repro covers: $325 a pair, plus hog rings. Closing in on $500, this wasn't going as we'd hoped.
As it turned out, a friend had already solved our problem: In the '53 Studebaker he built for the 2004 La Carrera Pan Americana road race (running in the Original Pan Am class), he'd installed what he described as "a couple of seats from Summit that were less than $150 apiece," adding that he'd put more than 2,000 miles on them in a brutal week of racing on roads that are anything but civilized yet had nothing but praise for these aftermarket items. Since then, the same set was transplanted into a Shelby GT350 clone to run the Targa Newfoundland race, another tortuous, weeklong event over roads that make America's disintegrating infrastructure seem like virgin asphalt.
Summit's solutions are black, low-back buckets that are either vinyl- or fabric-covered, with a simple, decidedly vintage look to them—exactly what we wanted for the Widow Wagon. At just $140 each (PN BST-39429-01), they're less costly than a reproduction A-100 seat cover alone! We also ordered a compatible, five-point RCI racing harness. Summit Racing (SummitRacing.com) offers several styles, but we prefer a design that bolts to the floor at all points (rather than wrapping shoulder belts around the crossbar of a rollcage). This model also includes the big latch with leather backing that delivers a relatively vintage look while meeting modern safety requirements.
That left us with building some aluminum risers. We learned that Chrysler used two different styles under A-100 seats: a three-hole design for early-'60s, fullsize Super Stockers, and a four-holer for the '68 Hemi Barracuda and Dart. We found a guy with an early Hemi car who gave us rough dimensions for the three-hole risers, then came across one of the most original '68 S/S Barracudas in the country. Better yet, its owner has collected everything he could for these cars, including factory engineering drawings for the later, four-hole seat risers. The floor pan in our '57 Chevy isn't anything like those in Mopars, so we used the Barracuda for references on the overall length, angles, hole sizes and distances, and material thickness, fine-tuning everything to fit the wagon.
At some point, we admit to wondering, Why all the extra trouble? After all, we don't plan to competitively race the '57. Even if we did, there's no serious, heads-up vintage racing for gassers; it's all bracket racing and handicaps, so weight doesn't really matter. But hot rods are supposed to be fast, and race cars are supposed to be light, even if a drastic diet isn't necessary and/or doesn't justify the hassle and expense. Furthermore, they say that every 100 pounds is worth a tenth, and saying it runs low 12s sounds a whole lot better than saying it runs high 14s. Last but not least, we're suckers for sexy lightening holes.

Dodge's A-100 van seat (left) was our original choice—until we discovered that Summit's Jeep-replacement model (right), complete with fresh springs and foam, costs less than a reproduction seat cover. This was a no-brainer for budget racers like us.Our inspiration: the factory seats and risers in Hemi Super Stock '68 Barracudas and Darts. These buckets are all business, with cool lightening holes to drive the point home.If you find an early Dodge A-100 in the boneyard, the adjuster tracks are worth grabbing. They're fairly lightweight, low-profile, and simple. With a little modification, they could easily work with our fabricated risers.Here's a Chrysler engineering diagram of the '68 Hemi Dart and Barracuda seat riser. Riser material is spec'd at .100-inch.The '65-and-earlier Mopar Super Stockers used a different design for the riser but the same A-100 van seats. This is a partially spec'd diagram we made from dimensions that the owner of a '65 Race Hemi read to us over the phone. He said material thickness was 1⁄8-inch, or .125-inch.We start most of our fab projects with a detailed diagram on graph paper. Based on the '68 S/S design, we built the risers out of .090-inch aluminum. It was thinner than the factory piece, but it was what we had on hand. Note that the mounting flanges are included in the piece.We began by mocking up the seat in the car and test-fitting it for height. Chrysler's specs put us too close to the roof, so we knocked them down a bit for head clearance.With our diagram finished, we transferred the pattern to aluminum. The sheet is coated with a protective plastic film on one side—work on that side. Sometimes the plastic is colored. Ours is clear.
Once the blank was cut, we moved it to the table and trimmed it out with the jigsaw. Two tips here: Clamp it to the table at points you won't see when the piece is finished so you don't mar it and always clearly mark your waste before cutting.Because of the '57 Chevy's floor contours, the inboard bracket requires a different shape than the outboard mount. (Because of this, the lower flange couldn't be bent on a metal brakes). We made a paper template for the inboard bracket to test the fit.We clamped the blank to a sacrificial piece of plywood to cut the holes. Hole saws are great for wood but can't make a clean or even precision hole in sheetmetal. Knock-out punches or "slug busters" would have been much better, but we don't have a set, and they weren't in the budget.Hole saws always leave a ragged edge and sometimes a big burr around the perimeter. We spent a good bit of time cleaning them up with files, sandpaper, and deburring tools.Stiffening ribs connecting the 90-degree flanges gives the bracket its strength. Note the cut corners. The insides of the bends aren't square; they have a slight radius to them. So, cut corners allow the ribs to fit tight to the three surfaces: upright and flanges.There are two stiffening ribs per bracket, fitted and welded to both flanges and the upright. We don't have a TIG welder, so they're just fitted in until we make a run to a shop to get them welded.After the riser is bent on the brake and the holes are drilled, we used a Scotchbrite pad and WD40 to give the aluminum a dull-gray, brushed appearance rather than the metal's shiny finish.Here's the difference between inboard and outboard brackets and the brushed versus unbrushed uprights. Note the marks on the unbrushed bracket from cleaning up and deburring the holes. Even if the holes were cleanly punched, the unbrushed aluminum will show every mark and blemish in the future, while the brushed finish hides them.
The rear of the seat has three mounting holes, while the front has two. Pick whichever you want, and put the corresponding holes in the brackets. Summit's seats come with mounting bolts.Our brackets and seats achieve the right look for any '60s-style build, whether street or competition. They've near ringers for the lightweight models seen in Hemi Mopars and Ford Thunderbolts (as well as VWs and MGs). At SummitRacing.com, we found the seats and a 5-point RCI harness (right)—whose black webbing, big latch, and leather flap look vintage enough for a nostalgia gasser. To contain the occasional highway passenger, we've retained the previous Deist 4-point belts, which—though more than 20 years old—still have solid webbing, are visually unchanged since the '60s, and won't have to pass tech. ★

The weight given to standardized admissions exams varies from program to program, and discipline to discipline. While it is just one of the variables in the application process, in some fields such as law and medicine, the LSAT and MCAT have an enormous effect on acceptance. The MCAT, LSAT, GMAT, and LAST are required examinations for the fields of medicine, law, business, and education, respectively.
Graduate Record Exam (GRE)
The GRE is required by most graduate school programs. (The GRE is usually not required for graduate programs in education and social work, particularly in the New York City area. Check with the programs to which you are applying.) You may be required to take the General Test, and/or the Subject Test. The scores are used as one indicator for success in graduate school. The General Test measures verbal, quantitative, and analytical writing skills. The analytical writing section focuses on your critical thinking and analytical writing skills. The score range is from 200-800 for the verbal and quantitative of segments; the analytical writing range is 0-6. These separate scores allow graduate programs to look at your ability in specific areas.
The analytical writing assessment section focuses on your ability to articulate complex ideas clearly and effectively and support ideas with relevant reasons and examples. The score range is from 0 to 6 in increments of 0.5.
The verbal reasoning section measures complex reasoning skills including your ability to analyze and draw conclusions from discourse, reason from incomplete data, identify author's assumptions, and understand multiple levels of meaning.
The quantitative reasoning section measures your ability to interpret and analyze quantitative information, apply basic mathematical skills and elementary mathematical concepts of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, probability and statistics and to interpret data and apply to real-life scenarios.
The scoring for verbal and quantitative reasoning is measured on a 130-170 score scale with one point increments.
Improving Your Knowledge & Skills
There are courses you can take at Hunter that may prove helpful in improving your knowledge and skills in taking the General GRE:
- Classics 110 for the Verbal Reasoning
- Math 125 for the Quantitative Reasoning
- Philosophy 103 for the Analytical Writing

$6.95 shipping.
the tie is fab-u-lous lol. it's the opposite of a "Regis"
No comment on this deal, But Costco has been having Tommy Bahama Dress shirts- Beautiful dress shirts with collar stays even. $25, 6 colors if memory serves
No colors?
I have a few of these shirts. Good luck ironing them. They're great the first time you wear them. After that they look like you've slept in them.
For those of you who don't know how to iron a shirt properly, here's some help.
The reason they dont iron well is that they are made out of cheap material and not sewn properly. A good dress shirt is easy to iron and if pulled from the drier at the right time will have few wrinkles, bad ones will look like they were slept in when you take them from the drier. These are not going to be easy to iron because they are cheap, but when you add in shipping they really stop being cheap but they still won't iron well.
I'm confused. $26.90 for a white dress shirt that people are commenting sucks? And 70+ people have upvoted this deal?
What am I missing?
They're up voting the price and customization, but they have not received the shirt yet. These are terrible shirts, like stated before, they will always be wrinkly. Quit staring at the cool customization, STAY AWAY!
Same deal they always have but still pretty nice shirts. I always take mine to the dry cleaner and they look fine and well pressed.
I want that tie.
It's a shame, I need a 20/36 and they have it, but with all the negative comments, I will stay away. Thank you to those that posted those comments.
@jcbesaw: Me too
These are great shirts with amazing material. They are made to take to the dry cleaners and come out very nice. These are $60-$80 shirts and the reason they only sell white is that these are loss-leaders. They hope you will come to their site and buy more ... which I have. These are an incredible deal, I highly recommend them (if you dry clean them) - they will last a long time!
@jay3120: Couldn't disagree more - if you dry clean them, they come out looking great - not a wrinkle. They are 'fine' quality shirts, with a very high thread count, thus the need to dry clean. They wear and feel amazing, I have been a customer OF THIS DEAL for 3-4 years and all the shirts look great. Btw - the embroidery on the cuffs becomes affordable and looks very classy, an upgrade I would normally not pay for.
@ronstell: well if they have been running this "special introductory price" for 3-4yrs then I guess there is no reason to buy one of these now.
Also, if you have to bring this shirt to the dry cleaners every time, stop wasting your money and just go get a dress shirt somewhere else that costs $50-70, but wont cost $8 everytime you want to wash it.
@racingfreak92: Where are you spending $8 to dry clean a shirt? I've rarely seen good dry cleaners charge more than $2 to clean and press a dress shirt. For those of us who work in offices with a business dress code, a good dry cleaner is essential.
I've bought these before. They are nice shirts. I send all my dress shirts to the laundry, who has time to iron? The monogram is free and I can get these in a 20-35 which is a hard size to find otherwise.

Leveling smithing to 100 seems like a difficult task. Is it more effective to craft cheap things such as iron daggers, or to craft expensive items such as Elven weapons?
Value Matters now. It used to take about 400 iron daggers to level up to 100. Now it takes about 2400 iron daggers.
From UESP: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Leveling
So, making more expensive things and adding more value is a good thing. But making something twice as expensive does not give you twice as much experience.
Early Stage
First, try to stack as many XP boosts as possible. Make sure you activate the Warrior's Stone for a 20% XP boost, and get a good night's sleep for a 5% - 15% XP boost. If you're further along in the game, completing a certain quest will add another 15% bonus to your Smithing XP gain.
Making iron daggers and leather bracers is still good way of leveling up in early stages. It's quite useful when your level is low.
Jewelry is another good way to level up in early stages. You can obtain large amounts of gold and silver ingots by buying or mining iron ores, which are cheap and plentiful, and turn them into silver and gold ores with the Transmute Mineral Ore spell. Don't sell the gemstones you get from mining and adventuring; use them to craft even more valuable jewelry.
Training is very inexpensive under Level 50, especially if you sell off all that jewelry you're crafting.
Mid Level
Dwarven Smithing (Level 30): Useful if you're going up the right side of the tree. Dwarven ingots are plentiful in this game. You can get scrap metals from Dwemer ruins and turn them into dwarven ingots. If you have Dwarven perk on the right side of the Smithing tree, you can take advantage of this. Once you reach Level 30 in Smithing, you can start making Dwarven Bows (2 dwarven ingots + 1 iron ingot) and upgrade (1 dwarven ingot).
Advanced Armors (Level 50): Useful if you are going up the left side of the tree. With this perk, you can start making Steel Plate Armor. It has the highest value added ratio, so very likely you will make profit even if you buy Steel and Corundum ingots, make Steel Plate Armor, upgrade it, and sell it back to the blacksmith. Speech skill and being able to get good deals is somewhat important for this strategy.
High Level
Upgrading an expensive armor adds a lot of value as your level gets high in smithing. You increase the value by 50% for upgrading to Exquisite (Level 40 with perk). You double the value if you upgrade the armor to legendary. This effect is amplified if you use Fortify Smithing enchanted gear and have Fortify Smithing potions.
One way you can take advantage of your high smithing level is to buy expensive armors and weapons at the blacksmith, upgrading them, and selling them back. If you have items that enhance prices (Volsung, Masque of Clavicus, Necklace of Haggling, Potion of Fortify Barter), you can make profit doing this.
To quickly level smithing, you should primarily focus on leather bracers and iron daggers, due to the fact these are two of the cheapest items to smith, and can be sold to cover any expenses.
The materials required, iron and leather, are fairly cheap and are easy to find. If you have a nice lump of cash, it is more effective to use this method and ignore making armor for your level. The reason for this is that you will be quickly leveling, allowing for constant improvement, as well as an increase in the effectiveness in upgrades (ranging from Fine to Legendary).
In the recent patches of Skyrim, it is more efficient to focus on more expensive equipment to level smithing. While it may not cheap, crafting higher level equipment is definitely more cost efficient. While I'm unsure of the exact values, try finding a balance between mining trips and buying ores in order to keep up with smithing production.
I'm currently level 100 smithing, I found that doing steel daggers, iron daggers, and leather bracers the most effective way. Also, buy and smith in whiterun, fast travel to riverwood then buy and smith there, then go back to whiterun, wait ~48 hours, rinse and repeat.
There is a Dwarven Storehouse in Eastern Skyrim. Go there, along with it's nearby major quest dungeon, and note that there is about 2000lbs of dwemer 'stuff' between them. A lot of it is behind Expert locked doors, but also a ton in side areas around boss fights. Pick up everything excepting the Bowls, which apparently Dwarves had a major thing for... Even if you just do the storehouse it's enough for you and follower full upgraded dwarven set.
-- sploit -- Your mule, er... follower... can hold an unlimited quantity of loot if you drop it on the ground when you become encumbered and use the manual commands to have him/her pick things up. Pick it up yourself, then find an empty big area with a clean floor to drop things in, as it's around a 10ft circle of loot in all directions. NOTE: most items don't stack: but ingots and some other items do. This means if you drop 20 ingots from your personal inventory on to the ground, then have your follower pick it up, they only get ONE. Drop each one using single quantity to workaround, or just keep ingots and drop all the other stuff.
Smelted, it totaled 360 ingots for me. Made Dwarven Bows (only need 1 iron ingot in addition), improved to Epic, and then enchanted with Common/Petty Paralysis. Get near 500 gold each with crap 30 speech skill, and have so many in house chest I could spend rest of game selling the vendors out of cash. If you aren't high enough from iron daggers to make the bows, just sell ingots to pay for iron/leather until you can.
As of the newest patch, Smithing skill gains are now linked to the value of the item crafted. This means Leather Bracers and Iron Daggers are no longer the order of the day as soon as you can make something better.
Iron daggers and leather bracers are probably the best things to craft (I tried upgrading a lot of forsworn armor, but you don't seem to get as good of gains from upgrading as you do crafting new items), but a couple of other things will help you as well.
Use the warrior stone SW of Riverwood to get the extra 20% gains to combat skills (smithing counts as a combat skill) and try to smith while well rested for additional gains. You can't get the well rested bonus if you have lycanthropy, but the combat stone helps a ton.
Buy the materials to craft Steel Chests and the Plate Chest when you unlock them, then refine them with bought Condorium and sell back to a vender. Wait a couple days or change smithing spots, and you will have a unending supply of money and smith materials.
Here is some scientifically gathered data about the cumulative number of craftings required to attain a given skill level. (p) indicates that a number was projected/calculated, and not actually measured.
It takes fewer craftings to reach the cap for value-able items. That was the goal of the change, so well done Bethesda. If you are limited by time at the forge, make the most expensive thing you can.
Here are the cumulative number of iron bars used. As you can see, Iron Armor leveling requires approximately twice the Iron Bars compared to Iron Dagger leveling
If you are limited by access to materials, stick to making cheap items.
I attempted to verify leveling via upgrades, but the UI is unfavorable toward performing hundreds of upgrades. However I don't think the UESP formula is correct - previous research (384 xp = iron dagger x10, 171 xp = upgrade x10 @ skill 84). The formula predicts that I should get more than 25 xp, but I got 17.1 xp.
Ebony dagger takes 1 bar for 290 value.
Ebony bow takes 3 bars for 1440 value.
Ebony armor takes 5 bars for 1500 value, inferior to Ebony Bow.
You can craft 6 daggers or 2 bows.
(290^0.65)*3 + 25 = 144. 144*6 = 864 <-- daggers win. (1440^0.65)*3 + 25 = 363. 363*2 = 726
I've heard that Iron Daggers are the best way to level smithing.
Go to Whiterun, buy your iron ingots and leather/leather strips, wait 24/48 hours (I think it's 24), then buy more and repeat if you have the cash and build up a stock to save you having to return to the shop as often. Then, sell all of your iron daggers and repeat.
I'm guessing you want the Dragon Armour. I'm after the same thing, so good luck. :)
You need to make a lot of iron daggers then enchant them. Then you can also make money, and increase your Enchantment skill.
Fast travel around to all of the blacksmiths and buy all of the iron ore, iron ingots and leather strips you can. Go back to Whiterun to make them and sell them. Why Whiterun, because Whiterun has everything you need, even a smelter and there are five people who will buy iron daggers with one open at night not counting your spouse if you have one. Wash, Rinse, Repeat.
When I played Skyrim, the way I used was just buying a ton of leather and iron from the blacksmith place in Whiterun and make a lot of Iron Daggers, it worked pretty well until your level gets about 40ish. Then the leveling started to get pretty slow so it's better if you save up a lot of money beforehand for buying the supplies. It takes longer than you think... Plus the stocks of iron and leather go up again every 24 hours or so. You're probably leveling for the dragon or daedric armor, good luck with that, hope you succeed! :)
Iron armor and leather helmets are actually the most cost effective investments at low level. A ratio of around 2,5 gold/gold spent.
That means if you have enough fortify barter (blackguard hood+amulet of zenithar.) You will be able to endlessly craft without losing any gold. Traveling from one town to the next.
And if you are a vampire you can even wear Volsung with the blackguard hood.
Use smithing gauntlets. Smithing potion. Skyforge. Leather braces.

Nope your spot on. Was doing well then Fmfan's save got corrupted.
Well I'm all for it, thought it was a shame the save was corrupted
Yeah it was. Going to post the challenge tonight.
The US Election Sign-Up: Race for the Whitehouse
The era of club sign-ups is over. The era for story-based sign-ups has just begun.
No longer are people creating sign-ups where the forumers watch how their player does at a club, Apps, Goals, MOMs. Now, the sign-ups are based on television shows: the forumites in the sign-ups are representing other things, be it Apprentice candidates, X Factor hopefuls or Eurovision acts. So now's the perfect time to get my US Election sign-up rolling.
The MLS is split into two divisions: East and West. The US Political system has two main parties: Democrats and Republicans. In a similar style to the Apprentice Sign-up, tasks are set which are the equivalent of primaries. By the end, we are left with two presidential candidates: Democrat and Republican, East and West. Then, the election happens. Everyone can vote, and at the end of it, we have our president.
Now I don't know enough about US Politics at the moment, so I'm hoping someone can help me with that. I do know that up until the appointment of Rudy Guiliani, NYC was a Democrat stronghold (I've read his book ). But I want to know other strongholds and such to add to the real-life side of the sign-up. The idea for voting was that everyone registers to vote. They're then split up into states. Voting begins and stops when every state has a deciding vote. Thoughts?
looks very unique and interesting canvey!!
I'm not big with US Politics so wouldn't really know much that would be of help to you though
sounds great. Rancer might be the best one to askthink about us politics as he's american i think
Rancer890 is Canadian and is big on the MLS so he might be able to help you, he's the only North American I know off the top of my head although I know there is alot.
spartans5 is another one from this forum, and Metheisman is involved in kipfish's thread. Amaroq is another one, from FMS.
It seems a promising idea but how does FM relate to this? You manage/choose a side to win the East/West Divisions and the winners are voted up as the absolute winner?
See the Apprentice Sign-up (which I'm still waiting for a vote from JoseRR in order to continue with), each forumer has a team in the MLS and tasks are set, e.g. score most away goals, win most games, etc. from which the forumites get points. Unlike TA, the forumers don't get voted off and instead there is a running table of how well the candidates are doing. There comes a point (probably the end of the season) where the Democrats and the Republicans choose their nominees, and then anyone who wants to can vote for who they want to be president.
Considering starting a new sign-up atm. Yes, I will continue with it for more than 2 weeks. Considering making it the same as Ridleys "it could be you... who's crap" sign-up. Obviously I will need his permission. But if I do get his permission then I will make it.
couldn't you do something more, original?
Being original is hard, PH. It will either be amazingly successful, or fail spectacularly. And in the first place thinking of an Idea and carrying it out is very difficult. Trust me, I've tried
I can't think of anything.
Do it do it do it do it.
you arent just gonna not do it again though
I'm going to continue it this time. Trust me.
and the time before that..
And the time before that, before that?
Too far.
How did you post that? it's only 7/8 digits. And it wasn't too far I was counting through the ones he'd stopped doing
In between the words Too and Far, he would have had adequate spaces to make up the numbers
Nah I went on reply and checked :confused:
Ah right
The thread is started. Get signing up.
Yes boss
I'm in 2017 and I'm challenging myself to make my affiliate club, Alaves, as successful as possible by loaning out my youth talent as well as some backup players. Alaves just got promotion back into the top flight of the Spanish league and they currently have six of my players playing regular first team football.
I don't really know how to make this into a challenge that everyone could take part in, I only started to do this myself since my Spurs team are winning everything and I thought it would be a bit of fun.
Any ideas are welcome.
I have been thinking about doing an experiment but I am unsure whether its been done before or not.
I want to see which part of the pitch is the strongest one. I would either create players or move high-profile players to teams in the BSS/BSN. Then make perhaps 3 teams:
Defensive: Which should consist of the strongest defensive side and perhaps goalie while the rest should stay as normal.
Midfield:Which should consist of the strongest midfield while the rest should stay as normal.
Attack: Which should consist of the most lethal attackers while the rest should stay as normal.
It is much like Adam C's 'Experiment - Superstars in the BSN/BSS: who carries a team hardest?' but are not 1 player for each team but a whole line in the team.
Would it be worth the hazzle?
I'm currently holidaying through 1 year of a game where I loaded every European top division in the game (plus all divisions in England, Germany and France). I've edited all top division league reps to 20, descending down by 1 for each division, and domestic cups are worth 20 as well. I'm not to sure of whether I should make a thread for this experiment or not.
What are you trying to find out?
I guess I'm looking at what would happen to European competitions, quality of regens in lower quality leagues, the types of players willing to sign for smaller league champions after a year. Basically just a whole bunch of stuff.
The things you've listed there are a good starting point. I can see Champions League and UEFA cup ties getting a lot closer for the early rounds if all the teams are able to attract players of similar quality.
As for the quality of the regens, that will be linked to the quality of the facilities at each team.
Just went into this thread and saw my name
If you decide to start that thread canvey!!! don't be afraid to ask
And don't compare me to an American please, we're different people.
My friends at school already think I'm sounding a bit British lately
I'm also thinking of doing a challenge now that roberto is taking over FM08 A New World thread. Not sure what kind of challenge though...
I have a challenge in the pipeline, but it involves moving clubs every season. What do people think about how the transistion should be made. I don't want people going to intermediary clubs, but should they spend some time unemployed if neccessary, or stay at one until they can make the next?
I may have to call you on that American politics advice, rancer.
pl -aries
1. a person who tries to bring about agreement between others
2. a messenger
1. acting as an intermediary
2. intermediate
You got a definition wrong I only went on the net to check what it meant because I didn't understand it
In the context I meant that I didn't want those taking part to stop at another club in between the two clubs: the clubs must be managed in sequence. The original question still stands.
Yada yada The easiest solution would be for them to just retire after each management job and pass onto the next.
I never touched a dictionary when I was 15. I always hated them.
I'm low on ideas. Every good idea has been taken (I wanted to do a Canadian signup but that delusional LeafFan took that idea lol)
And I just had an idea. Since there's a small club to big club from a big European country and a small club to big club from a small European country, how about going a bit east. Well, maybe the Far East
rancer890's Far East small club to big club adventure challenge
It just popped into my head. Any comments about this? I'll think about the specifics...
Go for it, if theres interest it'll be good, if there isn't it doesn't really matter.
And do Asian teams actually have their own Champions League?
EDIT: They do have one...the winner gets 600k and the finalist 400k. Not sure about the other ones though. And according to wiki, the Champion might get 5 MILLION!!! Maybe this challenge would be more tempting in FM09
Last edited by rancer890; 08-09-2008 at 22:03. Reason: to answer my own question
Yes they do
Well the only playable leagues for this challenge would be: A-League, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea.
Should people be barred from trying this challenge with the A-League, considering the fact that it might be too easy...
Not IMO
Just some questions I need to ask...
Do Singapore and South Korea have relegation?
How does the Indonesian Premier League and First Division work?
I have the framework of my challenge (not much different than Dafuge's or Gundo's Challenge really, but I will add a twist, since there are so few Asian leagues playable.) but I just a bit more knowledge about the Asian Leagues
This can help in the structure.
Does anybody fancy joining me in a challenge managing Northern Ireland ?
I havnt came up with a points scoring system , rules or deadlines , as I was hoping some one would help.
Help will be appreciated.
Singapore doesn't as that's where I was gonna run my sign up until I hit a few problems.
rancer - I can't believe that you're going to start an small club to big club Asia challenge. I had planned to do one when 09 came out, guess you've beaten us all to it now.
Time to start looking for somewhere else to do the challenge I suppose.
And I'm debating that there should be a Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4 of this Challenge wherever you start.
Part 1 - Win the League
Part 2 - Win the AFC
Part 3 - Win the Club World Championship
Part 4 - Take over the national team in your loaded and win the Regional Tournament and win the World Cup
Would this be too hard?
And should Australia be considered part of this challenge? They are technically in Oceania
Is Gundos challenge too hard? Yes. Does it matter? no!
I wouldn't say that it was too hard, structure to a challenge is always a good thing.
I like the fact that there's also an internationl part to the challenge, I do like to try to build a nation up too. Shame that we can't do it in Gundo's challenge until you've completed it!
I remember Gundo starting a new challenge where you had to try and get the national job to go along with the club job, can't remember it exactly though. Will have to have a search.
And also start thinking about a new challenge that I can start.
Ok, roberto and Razer. I'm starting to write up this challenge
Oh, and if Dafuge/Gundo don't mind, I'll need to copy some rules into my challenge.
And does anyone know about the league reset dates for every Asian country playable in FM?
I might try this challenge
Ok, it's up now.
Just need to know the league reset dates.
Don't think that it will take long for those reset dates to be found out.
In fact, I might be able to help with Hong Kong - I'll come back to you in a couple of minutes.
A new idea popped into my head
Since my FM08 A New World is dying off because it seriously took a lot of work, and I don't have any time. I wouldn't mind trying an FM09 A New World though, with the following twists:
- a lot less signup spots than the 53 in the FM08 one (maybe 11 or 22 spots)
- it will be from a blank database (like the FM08 one)
- they will all be assigned to a country outside the top 100 in the rankings (if there 11 spots, they will all be assigned to 1 team, if 22, it will be 2 national teams)
- each player must have European 2nd nationalities to avoid the messup in the FM08 one, where players from countries like Sri Lanka and Singapore couldn't find a club for months
- leagues loaded tbd (but I will not load the MLS, and any other league that has the season end in December), but will be affected by the 2nd nationalities of the players. All top leagues loaded in the game will have their league reputation set to 20, 2nd division 19, and etc.
- In regards to 2nd nationality: please, can you not ALL choose English as your European 2nd nationality
What I am trying to find, and why this will be a signup/challenge/experiment
- you can signup for it
- when and how good the national team(s) will be (an experiment)
- which league will rule European football, and which teams (experiment)
- there will be a simplified point system (challenge)
Other info:
- the format in FM09 will be similar to the FM08 one
- I will not manage a team. I will holiday month by month
- which also means it will be monthly updates
- I might also give individual player reports month by month (this will depend on the amount of free time I have)
That's all I have for now
i will be making a new challenge soon but have not typed up yet etc.
Post it in here before you post a new thread
Are there going to be any new challenges set/created anytime soon ?
Thanks for the reply, are there any challenges (for FM08) that you recomend , that are not listed on these forums ?
Seeing as there's been a bit of talk about small club to big club challenges and with the start of rancer's Asian challenge, I thought that I'd let you all know that I plan on starting a South American version once FM09 hits the streets.
I know there's been a previous version and that's why I'm not starting one now, there'll be a fresh challenge thread around release day.
Look forward to lots of you giving it a try.
I've had a bit of a crack in Brazil in the past and it's rather complicated. I'll try and get some details together for each country to give everyone an overview to how each league works.
My FM09 workload and the CSEs I'm participating:
- FM09 A New World CSE
- rancer890's FM09 small club to big club Asian adventure challenge
- Razer82's FM09 small club to big club South American adventure challenge
- Dafuge's FM09 small club to big club challenge (not doing Gundo's or Jose's, sorry )
- roberto's ??? challenge
- Random signups
So, many things to distract me from schoolwork
Alright....With still a couple of months till 09, we need a new challenge because some challenges such as the small club to a big club are slightly too long, especially with the 09 demo, around the corner. So, who would be interested in a new challenge. It could either be a:
Youth one - something about developing youth and screenshots, whos player does best etc. OR
One player - Make a player have the most sucessful career possible or something along those lines.
OR we could do a sign up or somebody else could suggest a challenge and I don't mind seeting it up or running a sign up.
So what do you think? Which is your favourite idea or give us any suggestions for a sign up or challenge etc.
Well I may have mentioned it before but I have a challenge idea that isn't mine.
On another FM forum back in the day before I joined this one I found a challenge for FM 05
The basics were that you needed to be Brazil and once they'd qualified for the WC try and do as well as you could with uncapped players for the Finals.
There was a points system but despite some searching I can't find the challenge
How about a sign up where all the players play for the same team?
For example a team from the bss/bsn has been promoted to the Premiership and have 16 16 year old -10 PA players and a healthy bank balance with a medium reputaton and good youth/ training facilities. Aim would be to see who would do well and if the team from the bss/n would do well.
I've got a potentially huge AI experiment building in my head.
It's basically " Which Attribute is the most important"
I'd create 36 teams ( one for each attribute)
Each player on the team ( apart from the keepers who would all be the same) would have all their attributes set to 1, except their team's attribute, be it longshots, or jumping or whatever, which would be set at 20. It would then be a battle to see which attribute is the best.
All teams would have no transfer, or wage budgets and so would not be able to bring anyone in.
Players would be tied to their club by future transfers
All Staff would be the same
Problems and possible solutions
There are 36 attributes( 14 tech, 14 ment, 8 phys), and there are no 36 club divisions ( to my knowledge)
My solution would be to do it in 22 club leagues ( i think there are these) and do it twice tech + phys and then ment + phys.
How long to do it for?
Depending on things like promotion, it might only be for a season, or it might be 20.
So what do you think?
What about colonal masters taking over in the league?
IT would be fun to see...
Ok I have an idea for an experiment I guess, but I do not have the time to run it currently, I may set it up come FM09 and have it run in the background while I playwith FML. But here goes.
Kind of based on the Super League type idea, but I was thinking of it going a lot more in depth, So I believe in Italy there are 18 teams in each league all the playable ones anyway.
So I would pick 9 of the top nations football league wise in the world. Thinking: England, Italy, Spain, Holland, Portugal, Germany, France (and I need two others) and taking two teams from each countries top league, they would go in the newly formed Serie A, then take two teams from each nations second tier and put them in the Serie B. Then for Serie C1/A & Serie C1/B it would be 4 teams from each nations 3rd division (2 into each league), and finally the Serie C2 would have 6 teams from each nation spread evenly between all the leagues. I was thinking i could continue it with Serie D as well so that the promoted teams also fit into this layout. My idea behind the experiment would be to discover what Countries leagues teams are competitive if they all had the same League rep as they would end up having in this situation. Anyone think this would be a good experiment? as for my Birds Flocking together Experiement it is still being worked on and will continue to be played in FM 08, just not updating right now
How about this challenge?
Would it be bad of me if I set this up for FM09 without consulting him? I would of course give credit to him
I have an idea for a challenge in Fm09 (I know its early but what the hell). It would basically involve "becoming a legend" in MLS (by winning titles etc.) before moving to Europe to see if you can compete in the big leagues. Let me know what you think but this is a general idea at the moment and will be refined if I do it.
Ive had an idea foe an AI experiment i will run it on 2008 and if it goes well and there is interest i will re run it on 09. Basically beacuse english football has a lot of money right now and is doing great compared to the rest of europe i want to see what it would be like if there was no money in english football. I would take all the money away from all the english clubs in the top two leagues and run it to see what happens to english football wether they continue domnating europe or they gradually drop off. Also i would see what affect this has on the national team. leagues run would be top two from all major eurpean nation

Rise of a Darth
Jaden Korr, a dark-brown skinned, male Iridonian looked at his one time friend, Rosh Penin in barely concealed anger. His blue-bladed lightsaber was inactive in his left hand for the moment.
Hello Rosh. Jaden growled out walking towards the Jedi that had turned to the dark side on one of the missions.
Jaden. Rosh said relieved at seeing his friend. A smile of relief was on his face as Jaden looked around the room.
Where is Tavion? Jaden questioned reaching out with the force to check for any signs of a trap. His brown eyes darted to the right and to the red skinned Twilek, that was standing on a platform, a smirk forming onto his face. I could use her to find her Tavion after I am finished with this fool. He thought darkly itching to activate his lightsaber and run it through the human.
Jaden stopped walking when he was a few feet away from Rosh. Rosh began speaking about her wear she was, "Korriban. She plans on using the Scepter to bring back his spirit." Jaden activated his lightsaber when he was finished and held it close to Rosh's throat his eyes becoming a red-rimmed yellow. Rosh backed away from Jaden in fear as he saw his eyes and fell over the side of the platform they were standing on and onto the floor. Jaden gazed at Rosh with his burning eyes before jumping down to Rosh. The Iridonian felt disgust at the young man's actions as he turned into the sniviling coward he always was when ever he couldn't save himself.
"Get up fool." Jaden snarled as he looked down at the terrified boy. When he didn't move Jaden reached down and grabbed him around the neck and lifted him up, slamming him into the container behind him. "Give me a good reason, why I should shove this lightsaber into your gut right now." Jaden muttered dangerously, holding the blue bladed weapon close to Rosh's neck. The young man swallowed but couldn't come up with an answer. Jaden snarled and threw him to the side, eyes flashing.
"Finish him, Jedi!" Alora exclaimed feeling the dark side raidating in Jaden. She licked her lips as she felt it gain power inside the male Iridonian.
"Wait!" Rosh pleaded, holding a hand in front of him as he moved away from Jaden from his position on the ground. "Listen to what your saying! Y-your angry... don't give into it! Tha leads to the dark side, right?"
Jaden swung his lightsaber and watched as part of Rosh's arm fall a few feat away. "Don't you dare tell me not to get angry!" Jaden thundered as Rosh clutched his missing arm in his hand. "You have no right to say if I get angry or not!" he gripped Rosh with the force and lifted him into the air as Kyle's voice echoed in his mind. Jaden was too angry to notice it and continued speaking, "Your the one who fell to the dark side in the first place! I didn't! I have been dealing with every mission I went on for the Jedi! And now I can finally let it out on the fool who caused it." Jaden threw Rosh to the ground and lifted him back up into the air. He waved his arm and Rosh flew into one of the containers and knocked it over. Jaden let im go as he flew into the container and walked towards him, lightning pooling at his fingers.
Jaden raised his hand and watched as lightning raised out of his arm and hit Rosh. The young man screamed in pain as the purple-blue lightning washed over him, burning him. Jaden laughed darkly as the smell of burned flesh and ozone fillied his nostrils. He increased the power of his lightning and watched as Rosh thrashed around in pain. Jaden closed his hand and watched as Rosh laid on the ground twitching in pain. Jaden turned as he felt Kyle even closer than he was last time and smiled his dark brown eyes turning red-rimmed again. Jaden looked back at Rosh's motionless body and flicked his hands towards the containers around him. The containers floated up before falling onto Rosh, hiding him from view but not killing him. Jaden turned towards Alora and launched himself into the air and to the platform she was on.
"Now Alora," Jaden said as he landed in front of her making her back up slightly. "You have a choice. You can stay here and destroy my master. Or you can come with me and help me join your master by resurrecting the great Sith Lord, Marka Ragnos." Jaden looked into her green eyes waiting for her answer. She nodded at him before she turned towards the Imperial shuttle. "Come Jedi. We have to hurry. If we are going to make it in time." That was her mistake. Jaden brought the butt of his lightsaber up and hit it against the back of her head, making her go limp. Before she could hit th ground Jaden caught her in his strong arms and lifted her up. He jumped over the railing and on the ramp of the shuttle before he walked up, turning his head slightly as his old master, Kyle Katarnn, walked into the room. The Master and Apprentice locked eyes before the ramp closed.
Kyle immediately went over to where he felt Rosh was as the shuttle began to take off and leave out of the hanger. Kyle reached into his pocket and threw a small disk at the back of the shuttle, hitting it. Kyle nodded and used the force to push the containers off of the young man. He winced as he saw what Jaden and the containers did to him. He was surprised that he was alive. Kyle reached into his pocket and pulled out a homing beacon. He had installed a homing signal for the Raven's Claw so if he couldn't reach it due to injuries or if he was rescuing someone and they couldn't move due to injuries. His eyes traveled over the large gash by Rosh's head and he winced. Hold on Rosh. He thought. Just wait until the Raven's Claw gets here and you will be fine. But until then. Kyle place his hands on the boys chest after straightening the his broken arm and leg before using the force to heal the wounds that would guarantee his survival.
A few hours later on Korriban.
Jaden made his way slowly up the steps to Marka Ragnos' tomb. Around him the sounds of lightsabers hitting lightsabers could be heard as the Jedi and Reborn fought each other. Jaden smirked as he felt more Jedi fall instead of the Reborn and was surprised. Tavion certainly has trained them well. He commented as he reached the top. Jaden used the force to call the lightsaber into his left hand and activated the blue blade as he felt the presence of Tavion's Reborn. Jaden cautiously made his way down the steps of the tomb and down the large walk way and stopped as he spotted two Reborn. Jaden lunged at one of them and cut him down with a quick overhead strike and kicked the other away from him. He listen to the weak Reborn's screams as he fell into the lava before it was quieted a few moments later as Jaden landed. He looked over and saw a small burning torso before he opened the doors.
Inside Tavion was holding up the Specter in front of the Marka Ragnos. It had a red beam of light coming out of it as it drained the dark side residue in it and gave it to the dead Sith Lord. Jaden had the element of surprise on his hand so he pulled the Sceptor of Ragnos out of her hands and he smiled as it landed in his, breaking Tavion's concentration. "You should learn to hold onto things better Tavion. Things just start to slip from your hands when you don't hold onto them." Jaden said mockingly a smile on his tattooed face.
Tavion glared at him and tried a calling the Scepter back into her hands. Jaden raised an hairless eyebrow at her before he blasted her with its energies. Tavion flew back and hit the stairs behind her and let out a pain filled gasp. Jaden chuckled and looked at the Scepter with a smile. Let's see what else you can do? He thought. Another burst of dark power came out of the scepter and hit Tavion deeper into the stone stairs. Jaden began walking down the steps and towards Tavion's limp body, the scepter glowing at the top of it.
"Now Tavion. I am in dire need of soldiers and Dark Jedi. So you see I already have Alora with me. And now I just need you. Now you can come now and I can train you so you can have your revenge against, Katarn." Jaden said.
"And if I don't?" Tavion said weakly from her position on the ground.
"Well... you don't have a choice exactly." Jaden said blasting her again, sending the Dathomir Witch into unconsciousness. "Now, my sweet. I am going to have to make this look believable." Jaden began blacking parts of the area while shocking areas with lightning to make it look like a battle actually happened. Once finished Jaden smiled to himself and jumped on top of Marka Ragnos' head and waited for Kyle to come while Tavion's unconscious body was unconscious by the stairs.
Kyle Katarn flew a ship he had stole straight at Marka Ragnos' tomb. As he went he saw and felt Reborn and Jedi alike fall and become one with the force. He shook his head in sadness and put it on full throttle and flew even faster. He saw the tomb entrance approaching quickly while passing a lone shuttle before the shuttle he was in crashed through the entrance with a loud boom! Kyle braced himself for the first crash and continued operating the ship and burst through the large closed doors. Rock and debris flew every where, hitting the walls and floor, but the unconscious Tavion was left unscathed.
Kyle slowly crawled out of the shuttle and landed on the ground in a crumbled heap. From his position on the top of the statue, Jaden stood up and jumped down and in front of Kyle, his blue lightsaber activating and the Scepter over by Tavion's body.
"Hello master." Jaden said grabbing the Jedi Master around his throat and lifting him into the air. Jaden squeezed his throat and got a reaction out of him. Kyle wrapped his fingers around Jaden's hand and tried pulling it off of him. Jaden smiled darkly as he clenched his hand tighter making Kyle gag and choke. "Come on, Kyle? Is this the best you have? Maybe, Jan would put up more of a fight then you." Jaden said.
"Don't you touch her!" Kyle snarled angrily.
Jaden laughed at Kyle's reaction. "Touched a nerve did I? Well let's see if you can back those words up. But first..." Jaden swung his lightsaber and watched as Kyle's arm fell off and to the ground as the Jedi Master let out a bellow of pain. Jaden pushed him back and into the shuttle and watched Kyle get back up slowly lightsaber in his left hand. Jaden knew that his old master was at a disadvantage. He only practiced with his right hand (which was currently laying on the floor) and never his left, unlike Jaden who was left-handed himself. I won't even need my lightsaber for this. Jaden deactivated his weapon and did a come-and-get-it motion at Kyle.
Kyle also knew he couldn't win this fight. His right hand was gone and he never practiced with his right. So how was he going to win this? Kyle looked around him and spotted the pillars in the area. Maybe I can use those. Kyle deactivated his weapon also and placed it on his belt and gather the force into his left hand.
So a force only duel, Katarn? Jaden narrowed his eyes and also readied himself. "Let's go Kyle. It is time for you to meet your death."
Kyle scoffed. "Don't be so sure of yourself, Jaden. I may be old, but I ain't that old." Kyle levitated the pillar next to Jaden as other objects in the room began to circle the dark Jedi.
Jaden looked around himself and smiled. "But have you forgotten, Kyle? I'm younger and have both of my hands. So let's see how old you are." Lightning leapt from Jaden's fingers and at Kyle.
Kyle moved the pillars in front of him and watched as it exploded, sending shards of rock and dust clouds everywhere. Kyle coughed as some of the dust got into his mouth and pushed it away from him with the force. Jaden looked at the floating rocks around him and pushed the force out wards from him. The debris around him scattered into smaller pieces and hit the walls. Jaden reached out with the force and grabbed the shuttle behind Kyle and lifted it into the air. The shuttle let out a large groaning sound as it was pulled into the air and hovered above Kyle. Sweat formed on Jaden's face as he held it before he dropped it.
Kyle had been blasted back by the wave of Jaden's shockwave and felt the shuttle lift into the air and immediately moved out of the way as it came crashing down. It spread more debris and Kyle her it crush into more pieces by Jaden's will.
Purple-blue lightning came at Kyle as Jaden let the dark power flow through him in the form of lightning at Kyle. Kyle held up his hand and a ball of lightning formed in his hand as he absorbed Jaden's lightning. Jaden looked at the ball and stopped in surprise. He didn't know the force lightning could be deflected or be held in someone's hand. Jaden grew worried for a moment, but that moment was all Kyle needed. Kyle sent the ball back at Jaden and it flew faster than the eye could follow and hit Jaden in the chest sending him back an into the wall with crushing force.
Jaden screamed as the lightning circled around him and snarled in anger. Jaden fell to the ground the lightning circling him and breathed heavily as it stopped. Residue lightning flickered over Jaden making him twitch.
"Damn..." Jaden muttered as he slowly got back up. "Kyle. Where the hell are you, you bastard!" Jaden yelled anger covering his features. In his anger Jaden called the Scepter and watched into float into his hands. "Where are you, you ****ing piece of ****!"
"Behind you." Kyle's voice said. Jaden turned and saw only the wall. Jaden raised an eyebrow before a warning in the force made him look up. The shuttle was there when Jaden looked up and he immediately held the Scepter up and blasted a hole into the battle torn shuttle. Jaden realized his mistake a second later. The shuttle exploded and sent Jaden to the other side of the room and he hit the opposite wall a grunt of pain forming on his lips. Jaden looked at his arm as he felt something warm there and saw a small fire there. He ripped off his shirt quickly, revealing his well muscled chest with bruises and bumps forming on it aloong with small cuts.
Damn. He thought holding the septer in front of the destroyed wall in front of him. I never knew Kyle was this strong in the force. I have to end this quickly. His eyes flicked towards Tavion. Not a scratch on her. Jaden thought as he only noticed dust particles on her.
He felt Kyle's weak force presence and used the force to pull Tavion over to him. He caught her and placed her over his shoulder before shooting a hole into the wall and jumping out of it. I will kill you later on master. You are lucky for now.
Luke Skywalker walked into the room and his eyes widened as he saw how much destruction it had taken. Pieces of the ceiling were falling out of place and the ancloves were ruined. On his right there was a small man made hole but on the other was a large one that looked like a bomb went off inside the whole place. Luke felt a presence on the side with the explosion and immediatelt went over to it. When he got there he saw Kyle Katarn wounded severely. From what he could tell from looking at him. Luke saw that he had lost his arm, had burns over his chest, and cuts everywhere.
What happened here? He thought using the force to heal Kyle. Kyle sucked in a deep breath and started coughing before he spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn... come on Kyle let's get out of here. I will ask you questions later." Luke helped Kyle up and grabbed his belt and placed his shoulder around his neck before walking out of the ruined chambers.

Note: The University has recently announced it will be phasing out the graduate computer science/software engineering (CSSE) master's and master's plus programs and will be working to assist its currently enrolled CSSE students to complete their programs within the next three academic years.
The M.S. Program in Computer Science prepares you for a career in software development, web development, networking, and related technologies, with high advancement potential. Courses concentrate on practical, applied computing, built on a strong theoretical foundation.
The Master's degree is awarded upon completion of ten 700-level courses. (Independent study or a thesis option may be substituted for one to two courses.) The sequence includes six required courses and four electives. If you desire, three of the electives may be grouped into a specific concentration (also referred to as a track) which appears on your diploma. Concentrations include web development, networking, and software engineering.
If you have an existing bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, you can complete the program over two years, with your course sequence looking something like this:
You may gain admission to the graduate program if you hold a bachelor's degree in any field. You may be required to take up to three 600-level preparatory courses, and it may be suggested that you also take CS 700 to strengthen your skills in programming and analysis. (CS 700 counts as one of the ten courses for the degree.) If you take all such courses, your first year might look like this, with your second and third years as above:
After the preparatory sequence, you are prepared to complete a sequence of remaining 700-level courses.
The MSCS program is tailored toward students working in industry full time. It is common for students to take one or two courses in any given semester. Some students take three courses - recommended if your workplace accommodates it or if you intend to enroll full time.

Can someone explain to me in what consists the Four-way Handshake in WPA-Personal (WPA with Pre-Shared Key), which informations are being sent between AP and client, how is it possible to find the AP Pre-Shared Key from these informations after we capture the Four-way Handshake.
This book is a very good resource on wireless security. This section explains the details of the four-way handshake, but you really need to read the whole chapter to understand it.
Both WPA2-PSK and WPA2-EAP result in a Pairwise Master Key (PMK) known to both the supplicant (client) and the authenticator (AP). (In PSK the PMK is derived directly from the password, whereas in EAP it is a result of the authentication process.) The four-way WPA2 handshake essentially makes the supplicant and authenticator prove to each other that they both know the PMK, and creates the temporal keys used to actually secure network data.
Capturing the four-way handshake will not divulge the PMK or PSK (since capturing the handshake is trivial over wireless this would be a major vulnerability). The PMK isn't even sent during the handshake, instead it is used to calculate a Message Integrity Check (MIC). You basically need to perform a dictionary or bruteforce attack on the handshake until you find a password which results in the same MIC as in the packets.
The four way handshake is actually very simple, but clever:
It is actually really hard to crack the key using this method, it would take roughly 4 million years to break the key using brute force. If you still want to try I have attached a guide linking directly to the crack page, this guide also details how to find the handshake packets.
what you normally configure on the UI is called a passphrase. The 256 bit Master key (PMK) is generated using a combination of passphrase and the SSID (the network name that u connect to). However this PMK is not exchanged during the handshake (well, both parties have that already). What is exchanged are a couple of Nonce values (random numbers). AP sends A-Nonce in message1. Station sends S-Nonce in message 2.
The session key is generated using a combination of things: The 2 Nonces + PMK + and Mac address.
From sniffer traces u can gather Macs, the SSID and the Nonces but not the PMK.
If you want to break that u ll need to break the encryption cipher that is used underneath (AES/RC4).
Good luck with that! and let me know if you manage it.
However if you already have the passphrase then there are tools that can give you the decrypted version of the packet capture. Wireshark or Omnipeek already have the provision for this (newer versions, just update).

President Barack Obama met with NYU Chemist Nadrian Seeman and other winners of the 2010 Kavli Prize, which is given every two years for outstanding research and seminal advances in astrophysics, nanoscience, and neuroscience, on June 6 in the Oval Office.
Seeman (in striped shirt, sixth from the right) received the Kavli Prize in Nanoscience for his creation of robotic devices that have the potential to create new materials a billionth of a meter in size. Seeman shared the prize with Donald Eigler of IBM's Almaden Research Center.
Seeman, the Margaret and Herman Sokol Professor of Chemistry at NYU, founded and developed the field of DNA nanotechnology—which is now pursued by laboratories across the globe—more than a quarter century ago. His creations allow him to arrange pieces and form specific molecules with some precision – similar to the way a robotic automobile factory can be told what kind of car to make. Seeman's work led the Christian Science Monitor to conclude that "nanotechnology may have found its Henry Ford."
The Kavli Prize is a partnership of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, the Kavli Foundation, and the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research. The laureates received a scroll, a gold medal, and share of the $1,000,000 prize for each of the three fields. They were honored at the Kavli Prize Award Ceremony last fall at Oslo Concert Hall.

Home late. Vegan Mom had a 6:00 meeting. Kids running around yelling. Tired. I went to the pantry and picked out some tomato soup and baked beans, and then made these sandwiches from The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook with some home made whole wheat bread. I added some frozen mixed veggies and dinner was ready in 20 mins. It was fast, nutritious, and the kids ate it. Mission accomplished.

I don't know where I've been but I just discovered your blog and have to say I love it! I've got two fairly picky kids and you've given me some great ideas for pleasing them while still enjoying the food myself. Thanks for the inspiration.

- Anke said...
I don't have kids but I know these nights when you come home and you are all worn out and cranky and the worst is that you have to make the dinner before you can eat it. you did a great job making dinner in 20 minutes and including beans, whole grains and veggies. wow.

Mmmmm those sandwiches look so good, what specific recipe from the Uncheese Cookbook did you use?

Ever since I saw this post I've been fixated on grilled cheese sandwiches. This weekend I'm going to get out my Uncheese Cookbook and make some. I want them on a day when I don't have to go to work - they'll feel more like a treat. In the summer I like to make these with slices of fresh tomato inside.
Just recently discovered your blog and have sent a link to my son, who has just become a vegan dad! (the dad part is new) The recipes look great.

Tell me more about that whole wheat bread. Please?
- June 12, 2008 at 11:55 AM

I will post the recipe soon for the bread. Stay tuned!
