So I guess my real question is Why use functions when you can use use macros?
Does that help answer your question?
typedef struct { int field;} int_struct;typedef struct { char* field;} pointer_struct;#define PRINT_STRUCT(s) printf("%s\n", s.field);void print_struct(pointer_struct s){ printf("%s\n", s.field);}int main(void){ int_struct foo; foo.field = 3; PRINT_STRUCT(foo); //This will crash during execution //print_struct(foo); //This would not compile}
- code size: macro are expanded at compile time, i.e. the macro is replace by it's value when you compile the file. So for one macro used 1000 times, you will have 1000 semi-identical code fragment in you object file. For a (not inlined) function, you will have just 1 piece of code for the function and 1000 function calls.

Read up on crunch, the wordlist generator included with Backtrack 5.
Let's consider this scenario.
I go into a company to pentest their network, inc wireless.
Through passive monitoring I find out the company name or internal domain name, and maybe even a few usernames.
Is there a way I can generate a custom targeted wordlist to incorportate the infomation I know about?
I.E Company name is company
So the wordlist will automatically include passwords like:
As well as the usual bunch of most common passwords?
Read up on crunch, the wordlist generator included with Backtrack 5.
At one point there was a OffSec script for this. I did a really quick search but couldn't find it. It was in one of the annoncement forums over the past number of years. I tried it at one point and it was fairly functional, though I do believe I reported a crash issue with it that never got a reply (IIRC).
You might want to checkout: CeWL http://www.digininja.org/projects/cewl.php
There are any number of tools that can perform the manipulations you're talking about if you have the base wordlist.
Crunch, hashcat maskprocessor, WLM etc.
Tape has lots of good blogs about wordlist prep and manipulation:

User:Michiexile/MATH198/Lecture 1
From HaskellWiki
1 Welcome, administrativia
2 Introduction
Why this course? What will we cover? What do we require?
3 Category
A graph is a collection G0 of vertices and a collection G1 of arrows. The structure of the graph is captured in the existence of two functions, that we shall call source and target, both going from G1 to G1. In other words, each arrow has a source and a target.
We denote by [v,w] the collection of arrows with source v and target w.
A category is a graph with some special structure:
- Each [v,w] is a set and equipped with a composition operation . In other words, any two arrows, such that the target of one is the source of the other, can be composed to give a new arrow with target and source from the ones left out.
We write if .
- The composition of arrows is associative.
- Each vertex v has a dedicated arrow 1v with source and target v, called the identity arrow.
- Each identity arrow is a left- and right-identity for the composition operation.
The composition of with is denoted by . A mnemonic here is that you write things so associativity looks right. Hence, (gf)(x) = g(f(x)). This will make more sense once we get around to generalized elements later on.
3.1 Examples
- The empty category with no vertices and no arrows.
- The category 1 with a single vertex and only its identity arrow.
- The category 2 with two objects, their identity arrows and the arrow .
- For vertices take vector spaces. For arrows, take linear maps. This is a category, the identity arrow is just the identity map f(x) = x and composition is just function composition.
- For vertices take finite sets. For arrows, take functions.
- For vertices take logical propositions. For arrows take proofs in propositional logic. The identity arrow is the empty proof: P proves P without an actual proof. And if you can prove P using Q and then R using P, then this composes to a proof of R using Q.
- For vertices, take data types. For arrows take (computable) functions. This forms a category, in which we can discuss an abstraction that mirrors most of Haskell. There are issues making Haskell not quite a category on its own, but we get close enough to draw helpful conclusions and analogies.
- Suppose P is a set equipped with a partial ordering relation <. Then we can form a category out of this set with elements for vertices and with a single element in [v,w] if and only if v<w. Then the transitivity and reflexivity of partial orderings show that this forms a category.
Some language we want settled:
A category is concrete if it is like the vector spaces and the sets among the examples - the collection of all sets-with-specific-additional-structure equipped with all functions-respecting-that-structure. We require already that [v,w] is always a set.
A category is small if the collection of all vertices, too, is a set.
4 Morphisms
The arrows of a category are called morphisms. This is derived from homomorphisms.
Some arrows have special properties that make them extra helpful; and we'll name them:
- Endomorphism
- A morphism with the same object as source and target.
- Monomorphism
- A morphism that is left-cancellable. Corresponds to injective functions. We say that f is a monomorphism if for any g1,g2, the equation fg1 = fg2 implies g1 = g2. In other words, with a concrete perspective, f doesn't introduce additional relations when applied.
- Epimorphism
- A morphism that is right-cancellable. Corresponds to surjective functions. We say that f is an epimorphism if for any g1,g2, the equation g1f = g2f implies g1 = g2.
Note, by the way, that cancellability does not imply the existence of an inverse. Epi's and mono's that have inverses realizing their cancellability are called split.
- Isomorphism
- A morphism is an isomorphism if it has an inverse. Split epi and split mono imply isomorphism.
- Automorphism
- An automorphism is an endomorphism that is an isomorphism.
5 Objects
In a category, we use a different name for the vertices: objects. This comes from the roots in describing concrete categories - thus while objects may be actual mathematical objects, but they may just as well be completely different.
Some objects, if they exist, give us strong

The department of music is proud to present Bassoonist John Miller as part of their master class series. John Miller Jr., was appointed principal bassoon of the Minnesota Orchestra in 1971, the year he also joined the music faculty of the University of Minnesota. Since then he has continued his solo career, performing numerous times with the Minnesota Orchestra, most recently playing Mozart's "Bassoon Concerto" in May 2009, as well as with many other orchestras.
Miller received his early musical training at the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore and the New England Conservatory in Boston. He earned a bachelor's of science degree in humanities and engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was awarded a Fulbright grant for music study in Amsterdam. While in Boston, he founded the Bubonic Bassoon Quartet and made the premiere recording of the "Hummel Bassoon Concerto," released along with the "Weber Concerto" on Cambridge Records.
For more than 20 years, Miller was a member of the American Reed Trio. Among his solo recordings are four concertos by Vivaldi and the Mozart and Vanhal Bassoon Concertos, all conducted by Sir Neville Marriner, on two Pro Arte discs. His teachers have included Louis Skinner, Arthur Weisberg, Stanley Petrulis, Sherman Walt, Stephen Maxym and Thom de Klerk. Among Miller's educational activities is the Nordic Bassoon Symposium, an outgrowth of the John Miller Bassoon Symposium, which began in 1984; it has attracted an international mix of hundreds of professional, student and amateur bassoonists. Miller has also presented master classes and recitals at major conservatories and music schools on five continents.

Tornados Storm Back To Beat Tusculum 3-2; Win Earns BC a Spot in SAC TournamentNovember 5, 2008
Brevard, N.C. – The Brevard College Tornados made history on Wednesday night in dramatic fashion as Coach Skeffington's squad stormed back from a 2-0 deficit to defeat the Lady Pioneers of Tusculum 3-2 and give the Tornados their first ever South Atlantic Conference Championship Tournament berth.
The Tornados dropped the first two sets, but bounced back to take sets three, four and five to score the 3-2 win (24-26, 18-25, 25-15, 25-21 and 15-13). The win moves BC to 12-16 overall and 3-13 in the conference, while Tusculum falls to 20-9 overall and 8-6 in the SAC with the loss.
In the opening set, the Tornados stayed close with the Lady Pioneers as they never trailed by more than four points throughout the set. With the score tied up at 18-18, a kill by Tusculum's Carly Swisher gave the Lady Pioneers the lead for good, as Tusculum traded points back and forth with the Tornados before winning the match 26-24 on a service ace by Heather MacArthur.
The Tornados took their first lead at 9-8 in the second set on an attack error by Tusculum. Senior setter Jami Perry pushed BC's lead to two points at 10-8 on a kill of her own, forcing Tusculum to call a timeout.
Out of the timeout, Tusculum scored back-to-back points to knot the score back up at 10-10. Neither team would pull away as they traded points back-and-forth until a service ace by Tusculum's Erika Garcia gave the Lady Pioneers the advantage at 17-15. Tusculum refused to give up the lead, outscoring BC 8-3 down the stretch to pick up the 25-18 set win and take a 2-0 advantage in the match.
With their backs against the walls the Tornados showed their toughness in the final three sets to storm back for the win.
In the third set, BC took an early 4-3 lead on a service ace by junior Cori Emory and a kill by junior middle hitter Brooke Seaman only to have Tusculum battle back to tie the score up at 11-11 on a BC attack error.
However, BC refused to roll over and instead responded with a 4-0 run to pull ahead of the Lady Pioneers 15-11. The Tornados would hold off Tusculum over the next few points and pushed their lead to as high as five points at 19-14 on a Perry service to force Tusculum to call a timeout.
BC finished off the Lady Pioneers down the stretch scoring the last six points of the set to pull away with the 25-15 win and force a fourth set.
Riding a momentum wave from the conclusion of the third set, BC jumped out to an 11-6 lead on a kill by junior outside hitter Megan Street. Tusculum answered the early offensive surge of the Tornados with a 9-6 run to pull within two points of the home team at 17-15. Yet that is as close as the Lady Pioneers would get, as BC continued to make big plays down the stretch to push their lead out to five at 24-19 with set point looming.
Tusculum did not give in, scoring the next two points to add pressure to the Tornados making the score 24-21. However, junior Chelsey Trojan put the set away with a kill on the next point to give BC the 25-21 win and knot the score up at 2-2 heading into the fifth and final set.
Tusculum showed why the have won 20 matches thus far in 2008 in the final set, as the Lady Pioneers jumped out to an early 3-0 lead on BC. However, the resilient Tornado squad would not give up and battled back to take a 7-5 lead on a Tusculum attack error and a Seaman kill, forcing Tusculum to call a timeout.
Out of the timeout, Brevard traded points with Tusculum holding on to a 10-9 lead when Coach Skeffington called a timeout.
BC responded with a kill by Trojan to go up 11-9, which started a trend in which the two teams traded points back-and-forth until a kill by Tusculum's Swisher cut the Tornados lead to one at 14-13. On the very next point, the Tornados made history as freshman Chelsea Larsen pounded the ball from the left side of the net into the middle of the court on Tusculum's side to give BC the 3-2 win, earning them a spot in their first ever SAC Championship Tournament.
Leading the way for Brevard was Seaman with a match-high 18 kills and Trojan with 11 of her own. Perry dished had six kills to go along with her 38 set assists, while libero Rebecca Schoonover had a match high 14 digs.
For Tusculum, Katie Luebke had a team-high 13 kills, while Swisher added 12 kills. MacArthur had 10 kills to go along with 10 digs, while libero Erika Garcia had a team-high 13 digs. Setter Peyton Colclough had a match-high 43 set assists.
The Tornados will play two more matches before the South Atlantic Conference tournament starts on November 13. First off BC will have a non-conference match at Columbia College on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. and then play in their home finale on Tuesday night, November 11, versus the Lady Crusaders of North Greenville at 7 p.m. The Lady Pioneers will next play Catawba at home on Friday night at 7 p.m.

Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Combining the different aspects of combat (striking grappling etc)is nothing new, here is a brief history of MMA and its antecedents:
Pre Olympic world, combat arts are fragmented into armed and unarmed combat, with armed combat being far more refined and important.
early Olympic time period (still B.C.) unarmed combats sports such as wrestling, and an early form of boxing are highlighted and respected, and then with the inclusion of Pankration ( a mixture of the two) in the 3rd Olympic games the first Mixed martial art is born.
in the 1800's after much time of segregation, and refinement behind closed doors of arts that place focus on developing skills in a specific skill set, the arts finally start to mingle together again significantly, perhaps because the skill sets such as they are are competing for the same audiences as they are being introduced to new countries, largely by Asian coaches travelling and teaching across Europe, to the UK or to Australia and America.
In the late 1800's much spectator interest is placed in NHB and mixed styles or mixed rules contests and at the very end of the century (1899) Bartitsu is founded.
In the early 1900's Merikan contests were becoming popular in the pacific rim, Asian slang for "American fighting" Merikan contests pitted a boxer against a Jiu Jitsu exponent. meanwhile in south America after the spread of Kosen Judo had become popular and the gracies had put a greater emphasis on the ground game, Vale Tudo matches and the gracie challenge were becoming regular staples of Brazilian Culture.
the 1960's was dominated by Bruce Lee, who was himself an avid cross training martial artist, which left an undeniable impact on the martial arts scene.
1963 Gene LeBell Vs Milo Savage: famous Judoka and wrestler Gene LeBell proves the value of grappling by choking out Boxer Milo Savage in their mixed rules match.
1976 Muhammad Ali vs Antonio Inoki: another famous mixed styles bout which ended in a drawn out stale mate as neither fighter chose to engage his opponent in his area of expertise.
1989 First professional Shooto Event.
1993 Pancrase and the UFC form.
2000 Unified rules are Developed
2001 Zuffa purchases UFC
2005 T.V. reality show "the ultimate fighter" debuts
2011 WEC merges with UFC and Zuffa purchases strikeforce, solidifying the UFC's dominance on the MMA landscape.
This is of course a very sparse history of MMA but is certainly enough to get you started in your wish to "edukate" yourself, as you look into each of these i am quite sure that they will lead you to pages on the internet detailing much of the stuff i have left out.
Blackdog..tell me a story, I miss your stories, go on, belated christmas present for the forum or something!!!

NRA Scrubs Nugent Video
Blog ››› ››› OLIVER WILLIS
The National Rifle Association has pulled the video of Ted Nugent's incendiary comments from the organization's official YouTube account and from the NRANews.com website.
In recent days Nugent, an NRA board member, has come under intense criticism for comments at this year's NRA convention.
Nugent described the Obama administration as a "vile, evil America-hating administration" that is "wiping its ass with the Constitution" while telling the crowd that "[w]e need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November." Nugent also claimed that "If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year."
The Secret Service reportedly has a meeting planned with Nugent to discuss his comments.
In a radio interview Nugent said that he would stand by his comments.
But the NRA is currently dealing with problems of its own:
There are signs, though, that the NRA is growing out of touch with modern Americans and even with its own members--who, according to surveys, now tend to support restrictions such as mandatory background checks on buyers of weapons at gun shows. The future does not look bright, either. Despite attempts to attract women, most convention-goers in St Louis were white men over the age of 40--a segment of the population on the decline. The classified sections in NRA magazines such as American Rifleman feature, besides all the weaponry, advertisements for gardening equipment and Viagra.
This may not be the best time to stand behind Nugent.

Suns' Marisnick has 'grand' ole time
Marlins' No. 2 prospect smacks two slams, plates nine runs
By Robert Emrich / Special to MLB.com | May 30, 2013 9:23 PM ET
Jake Marisnick had a career night after the seventh inning of the Suns game Thursday. Then he made it a record-setting evening an inning later.
The Marlins' No. 2 prospect hit the first two grand slams of his career and tied a Southern League record with nine RBIs as Double-A Jacksonville routed Pensacola, 11-2.
It looked as though Marisnick's run-scoring double in the first inning might be the game's only run as the Suns opened their half of the seventh. Jacksonville loaded the bases with one out for Marisnick, who launched a home run off Josh Ravin to extend the club's lead to 6-0.
"I got a good pitch to hit. He left a curveball up and I put a good swing on it," Marisnick said. "I hit it pretty good, but the way the ball had been flying, the wind was blowing across and some guys had hit balls out there that just died. I thought I got it pretty good and I guess it got out by enough."
The 22-year-old outfielder found himself in an identical situation one inning later and did not disappoint, becoming the first player on the circuit to drive in nine runs since Butch Garcia managed the feat for Charlotte on Aug. 4, 1989.
"It was awesome," said Marisnick, who had never before driven in more than four runs. "All the guys were pretty fired up for me. They did a great job tonight, getting on, taking walks and laying off good pitches. We haven't been swinging the bats really well so for us to put up a big number like that, it was a lot of fun."
No player in the Southern League has collected two grand slams in the same game since MiLB.com came into existence in 2005.
Marisnick entered the game in a 2-for-26 slump. While he didn't do anything differently Thursday night, it was more returning to normal for the Florida native.
"Just little things I've been working on with Kevin Randel, the hitting coach," he said. "Just kind of got up there and let it happen. Sometimes I've been overswinging and that gets me into a bad situation."
He also received some help for Logan Morrison, who is rehabbing down in Jacksonville following knee surgery in September. Morrison walked as a pinch-hitter in the seventh, scoring on Marisnick's first grand slam.
"It was awesome," Marisnick said. "He kind of had a lot to say to me. He watched some of my at-bats and he told me, 'Hey you need to relax, you're pressing a little bit.'"
In the end, Marisnick seemed a little awestruck at the record-setting night he had.
"I dont really have words for it, I'm still kind of letting it sink in," he said. "It's a special night and I'm enjoying it."
Christian Yelich, the Marlins' top prospect, was 2-for-4 with a triple and an RBI while Mark Canha added three hits and scored twice for the Suns.
Robert Morey gave up six hits and struck out four over six scoreless innings to earn his second win for Jacksonville.

An old joke went that only two people in history understood Hegel, and even they misunderstood him.
It used to be that when intellectuals heard the word "derivative," they thought about what Marx took from Hegel.
Hegel's blasphemy may, then, be answered as follows: God is the infinite and absolute spiritual Person.
Even Hegel, the philosopher, evinced marked interest in him.
Hegel himself grew more and more into a belief in his own doctrine as the one truth for the world.
So far we may accept Hegel's interpretation of the Zend doctrine.
If that is unfair to Hegel, it is a fair revelation of the mind of James.
According to Hegel the dialectic is the self-development of the Idea.
Hegel's own saying about his lectures is well known: "One only of my pupils understood me, and he misunderstood me."
Not that I profess to know anything either about Hegel or Schopenhauer.

Make something like this with "Ken", and send it to his lawyer.
Lol hahaha this made me laugh, thank you
It's not impossible that it's genuine. A film-maker wanting to protect his reputation googles his name and finds that a $40 template is crawling slowly up the rankings. That's the price of fame…. If it weren't for the Ken Burns effect, I guess many people might not have heard of Ken Burns at all.
It could also be freelance lawyers, scouting for a bit of work. Working on behalf of NY city laws and not on behalf of client, Ken Burns??? Maybe you just have to settle with them for a bit of money and they'll drop the case….i.e. SCAM… or at least dodgy legal practice. Who knows?
I'd ask them to demonstrate their association with the real Ken Burns, or find out on whose behalf they're acting. If it's off their own bat, they're chancers. If it's not film-maker Ken Burns, then I don't see why you can't continue to use the name. If you're not in the States, it's going to be quite a tough call for any lawyer to get you extradited to answer some wobbly case based on a local state law. Quite apart from the dubious Ken Burns association, the non-compliance with NY State law is not exactly in the spirit of the world wide web.
But anyway, that's all conjecture… I'm no lawyer. I'd try and find out more and then speak to the Envato legal guys about it, if I were you.
Looking forward to hearing the outcome of this.

I guess it would be safer and much simple for you to remove the item since you've said that you already planned to do that.
Hope John Doe doesn't get the same idea as Ken did.
So…it means I have to move out too the "...google maps…" from my item's name…just to be careful? OMG – people nowadays went crazy about licensees & trademarks and so on…I really have the feeling we are all in the middle ages when everyone protects its own territory….
Just verify with tess http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=tess&state=4002:ol5ixd.1.1 I do not think ken burns is a registered trademark

Post subject: Updated Three Rivers Park District Policy (1/24/2006)
The MnGCA Board is proud to announce that the Three Rivers Park District has updated their geocaching policy and posted it to their website here:
The MnGCA Board had several goals going into the November meeting (see here:
for more information about the November meeting):
Increase the distance from trail requirement from 25 feet to something a bit more cache friendly.
Increase the number of caches per park from their original limit of 3 to an amount limited only by the Groundspeak default distance requirement of a .10 radius.
Eliminate the yearly re-registration process to help streamline Three Rivers paperwork and to lessen the burden on Minnesota Geocachers.
The outcome of our proposed policy was put up for vote on Three Rivers January 19th, 2006 Board meeting. The original text follows:
Meeting Date: 01/19/06 Business Item: New Item Number: 5B
Department: Program and Facility Services Originating Source: Tom McDowell, Director
Agenda Item: Revision to the Geocaching Guidelines in Three Rivers Park District
Recommended Action:
At the November 21, 2002 Board meeting, a Geocache policy was adopted (Reference 5B-1). Geocaching is a recreational pursuit that brings technology and nature together. Geocaching participants use Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment to find caches that are hidden throughout the world. Individuals place caches, post the coordinates and other information on the Internet for other people to use to locate the hidden treasures.
The popularity of geocaching has grown significantly in the past few years although it still generates a very small portion of park attendance. The geocache registrations within the Park District have increased from 15 registrations in 2004, to 20 registrations in 2005. Most caches consist of small cans, Tupperware containers or plastic bags hidden in hollow trees or logs.
Representative from the Minnesota Geocache Association recently met with staff to review the Park Districts existing guidelines. Staff has reviewed their request and is recommending two modifications (in bold) to the guidelines:
Geocaching is allowed in Regional Parks and Park Reserves.
Individuals wishing to register a cache in our Parks will be required to register on a one-time basis. In the past they were required to re-register on April 1 of each year or archive their cache.
The number of caches allowed in any park is not to exceed 20. Each cache must be at least one-tenth of a mile from another cache.
All caches must be located within 25 feet from center of a maintained trail. Locating caches along trails ensures that they are not placed in ecologically sensitive areas, nor in general active use areas such as picnic areas, campgrounds, beaches, golf courses, etc.
Caches are to be placed in a manner that minimizes the chance of being found by people not seeking them.
Access to caches will be subject to the Park District ordinance including, but not limited to: parking fees, hours of operation, designated trail uses, maintenance standards, and natural resources management activities. Caches are to be accessed or placed only from trails and must not require disturbance of the park environment. Caches are not to be buried.
Individuals placing caches are responsible for monitoring and maintaining them to ensure they remain intact, safe, and contain appropriate material.
Caches found in non-authorized areas will be removed by staff, or by contacting the originator of the cache, if possible, to relocate the cache in an authorized area.
If these guidelines are acceptable to Program and Policy Committee members they will be posted on the Park District WebPages
with a link to
and vice versa. Park District program staff may also explore the program potential that this activity holds including geocaching treasure hunts, promotional caches, and virtual caches. Future changes to this activity will be presented to the Program and Policy Committee for consideration.
While we only achieved two of our original goals, the increase in permitted caches is a great success for Minnesota cachers!
We would like to note that even though Three Rivers did not accept our request to increase the distance from trail requirement, they did mention that it is
very important
that geocachers adhere to the requirement that geocaches not be placed more than 25 feet from existing trails.
If you have any questions or comments please post them below.
Happy cachin,
Silent Bob
MnGCA President
edit on 4/10/06 to remove "Announcement"

something just occurred to me in regard to this policy.
the former restriction on caches in the parks was "one cache per person / three caches maximum per park".
we proposed to eliminate the one cache per person restriction as well and I don't see any reference to that limit still being in place. can we assume that indeed a single person may place several caches in the same park? My reading of their published policy is Yes to that question.

The updated three rivers registration form does state 1 cache per person per park. I called Marlene and asked about the difference between the policy statement and the registration form and she was happy to be made aware of that disconnect (they missed it in the editing). She agreed that it would seem the "1 cache per person per park" provision should not be on the registration form since it is no longer written into the policy. She needed to verify this with her manager and expected that they'd be making the change to the form to bring it in line with the policy as stated.

Please be aware that the finalized text has little to do with what the MnGCA Board discussed with the Three Rivers Park District staff outside of the major points.
Their word choice on line items such as cache containers were their own.

Quick note:
I made a follow-up phone call to Marlene at Three Rivers today (regarding the registration form). She wasn't there, so I talked with her boss, Tom.
He said that they WILL be editing the registration form to remove references to "one cache allowed per person" and "caches must be removed after one year". I also asked him about the caches that are already in place, and he said that if they are in the book (there are only 20 of them in there for 2005) then they're good to go. I don't know if the any older ones that might have had registrations lapse in the past and then were adopted are officially in the book. Whoever is the adopter should probably call Marlene and just ask if their cache is all legal and such. If not, I guess a form submission would be in order to bring it up to date.
So the registration form, though it is currently inaccurate, will be changed when their webmaster gets around to it.

Post subject: 25 foot rule
It's a shame this rule didn't get changed. It's far too easy for muggles to see you at a cache site when you're only 25' off a walking trail.

This is a silly article
This article is silly. Coming from a source other than the computer games, trading card game, novels, RPG, or manga, its content is not part of official Warcraft lore, but nevertheless has become part of the culture belonging to the World of Warcraft community.
Morons are a mystery. You will encounter many types of moron; from the harmless class n00b to the grossly incompetent player. So here is an easy guide to how they have been classified:
The duelist Edit
As long as there have been World of Warcraft players, there have been players that constantly want to duel anything that moves. They would duel plants if the plants didn't wisely reject their duel requests. The worst of this sort are the ones who lurk by the entrance to a major city trying to duel anyone who dares enter or leave. Let us also not forget the max-level characters who constantly request to duel characters well below their level.
N00b Edit
N00bs have a small idea about the importance of right-click; usually they try to help out the Grossly incompetent n00b in some way as best they can. They will probably need some time figuring out which NPC's give the quests and training, which brings you to:
Grossly incompetent n00b Edit
You must have either seen or been one of these people at some point in your life. They are the people who never figured out that you have to right click everything, and that your gear at the start is not what you will be wearing for the whole game. They will use their one attack to get to a modest level and then make their way to a capital city, still at level 1. We are not sure how they are able to do this, but they do it. Warning: on role playing servers, people never go beyond level 1, relying on alts for cash and materials. If it is a role-playing server, than you will have to keep your mouth shut.
Class incompetent Edit
Very rare, but everyone has been one of these. Essentially, you are actually terrible at your class. Not guildie or Pug insult- you are lame at your class. Options are to either master the class you have chosen with online strategy guides or just to make your character anew.
Alt-a-holic Edit
Many people are alt-a-holics. You just have to try out Blacksmithing... oh, and Hunters look like fun... and I wanna play through the Goblin starter zone... so much to do... so little time. (And so little choice between hairstyles without going to the barber. I wanna Gnome affro!)
The person who keeps getting stuck in things Edit
You have, at some point, gotten stuck in between two annoyingly placed pieces of the environment. And thus you engage in all sorts of scenarios (jumping, walking, getting on/off your mount) and eventually you either get free or do a Hearth escape.
The young pupil Edit
In real life, these people would probably say something like 'please, teach me how to be good,' but on WoW, it's more like 'omfg, how can I do that?' Usually, in WoW the matter is resolved with these words: Learn 2 Play.
The heirloom wearer Edit
Would not at first seem to be a moron, but when you consider that they've given an alt f***ing HEIRLOOM gear, their idiocy shines through like a beacon. Do they actually think its gonna help them? No, it just makes them look like jerks in front of all of us who do freakin' QUESTS for our gear.
Goldshire Residents Edit
One does not simply walk into Goldshire willingly, and even less to the Lion's Pride Inn, these two locations should be avoided at all costs unless you want to be scarred for life.
That concludes the moron article. Edit it if you see anyone who is an idiot but I have not classified.

Roksanda Fall 2014
Roksanda Ilincic had a great show. She may have felt this by the flock of reporters who literally swarmed her within seconds of her bow, but her audience sensed it a few minutes earlier while watching her industrial, colorful, architectural designs hit the runway.
She started off softly. The first looks were subdued, almost monastic-felt dresses that mixed giant panels of navy, bordeaux, sand, and cornflower blue. They were cinched with large metal belts that added an urban and modern sensibility. Then hemlines and waistlines started getting chopped up into exaggerated, asymmetrical silhouettes—a theme among London designers these last few days.
The same goes for embellishment. Artfully, graphically arranged beads are the new print, and Ilincic's creations were inspired by the work of American artists Jessica Stockholder and Mel Bochner (known, respectively, for her bright, playful sculptures made of simple cutout shapes, and his blocky and busy word paintings), as well as the jagged landscape and clever use-what-you-can-find construction of Rio de Janeiro's shantytowns. All this motivated Ilincic to rework her own rubber and plastic scraps from past collections, cut them into a million different small shapes, and then attach every last one to the front of a cool, long, sleeveless dress, a T-shirt, and a strapless dress that would make an excellent choice for evening.
That all this energy was grounded by Nicholas Kirkwood's pointed-toe tassel loafers and a supersimple pulled-back hairstyle made this collection all the more accessible for real women. Ilincic proved that herself as, before facing said swarm of reporters after the show, she swiped a colorblocked fur coat off the rack and threw it on over her black turtleneck, ready for anything.

El Take It Easy stood out for having ties to Mexico's food community.
It wasn't afraid to serve border-food like tostilocos to North Park hipsters, along with rabbit tacos and spicy Micheladas.
It wasn't ashamed of sporting a name that sounded like a spring-break disco either.
I broke the sad news on Twitter today that El Take It Easy is closing April 22.
It's been almost three years since owner Jay Porter, chef Max Bonacci and jack-of-all-trades Michael McGuan set up this gastro-cantina in a stream of tater-tot taverns, not far from Porter's sister project on 30th Street, The Linkery.
El Take It Easy had a cross-border mission that was never cheesy…to get San Diegans to appreciate Baja California's bright spectrum of culinary talent.
Porter liked to call his El Take "Baja's northernmost restaurant." He hosted pop-up dinners with Tijuana's one-man savior-chef Javier Plascencia, and other classy chefs like Utilisima TV stars Benito Molina and Solange Muris from Ensenada. The best wines from Valle de Guadalupe were on the shelves, too. But we'll soon say 'bye to all that.
Porter, who recently moved to San Francisco, will pull the plug on this concept, and start fresh with McGuan in the lead.
Of all the restaurants I visit regularly, El Take got me in often for its Mexican chef cameos. Read a recap of the Plascencia dinner there.
So I wanted to give it this early epilogue and note of thanks. The outspoken Porter offered this concluding speech for the end of El Take It Easy, too. Excerpts are below:
"I can't say that El Take It Easy was a financially successful project, but it was sure a fun one. In that way, I suppose it has served as an appropriate tribute to our inspirations, the 'new Baja' restaurants we love in Tijuana, Ensenada and the Valle de Guadalupe.
"Somewhere along the way, thanks largely to major national and local media coverage of Javier Plascencia, Jair Téllez, Diego Hernandez, Benito Molina, Drew Deckman and other great Baja chefs, it's no secret anymore about what's going on across the border. And it's thrilling to me that all these fantastic chefs came to our little bar and cooked with us in our pop up series -- I think in a few years, it will be one of those things that will be hard to believe actually happened, like Sha Na Na playing at Woodstock.
"And, happily, for lovers of the new Baja culinary movement, El Take It Easy isn't really needed as an advocate. There are at least a couple San Diego chefs -- and I'm sure there will soon be more -- exploring new Baja cuisine, and Baja chefs are appearing in San Diego more and more. And, of course, crossing the border is still an option.
"Thanks to everyone who made this a joyous and memorable chapter of our lives, and, if you'd like to say a proper goodbye to El Take It Easy, come visit us between now and April 22nd. We have a lot to celebrate." -- Jay Porter.
There will be a $25, three-course dinner series there for a while, called "Get Out If You Can" (English translation for "Salsipuedes,"). The menu, inspired by the best of Ensenada-Valle de Guadalupe cuisine, is "the restaurant we would operate if money and the market weren't a concern," Porter emailed earlier this month.

Ellet will attempt to win its third consecutive City Series championship in 2014 after putting together back-to-back 6-0 league records. The Orangemen advanced to the Division II playoffs each season, finishing 10-1 overall in 2013 and 8-3 in 2012.
The Orangemen must reload with several seniors from last season gone due to graduation. Matt Geer, Hussain Hamdan and Jacob Isenhart are gone after earning four varsity letters. Auston Fink, Jake Fisher, Dakota King, Andrew Neal and Jake Williams have also moved on with three varsity letters.
"It is hard to tell how are team looks because we have a lot of question marks [following the graduation of a lot of seniors]," said Ellet coach Joe Yost, who is in his 36th season and is 211-144-2. "We have good kids to fill in, but we also have some spots where we are searching.
"I am excited about our guys because they have grown up as young kids around successful kids. They have a great work ethic and they plan on winning."To read more or comment...

Several talented players from area schools have graced the cover of the Akron Beacon Journal High School Football Preview over the years.
There have been football players from Archbishop Hoban, Buchtel, Canton McKinley, Garfield, Hudson, Kent Roosevelt, Massillon, St. Vincent-St. Mary, Wadsworth and a host of other schools recently on the front cover of the section.
The 2014 version will have Nordonia football players on the front cover, and be available to the public in the traditional newspaper form on Friday and online at ohio.com.
Nordonia hopes to improve upon 8-3, 5-2 with Division I college recruits Denzel Ward (Ohio State), Justice Alexander (Michigan State) and Cameron Bell (Toledo) playing key roles.To read more or comment...
Wadsworth, 9-2, 6-1 a year ago, will open the season without coach Greg Dennison, who is recovering from a surgery that removed a cancerous kidney. He is hoping to return Week 2 or 3, but until he returns defensive coordinator Robb Karovic is in charge.
"Our strength is the program," Karovic said. "We have program kids. We are consistent in that we run the same system from the seventh grade up on offense and defense. A weakness would be our inexperience on the varsity level. We are replacing 10 starters on defense and eight starters on offense."
Wadsworth gradated 25 seniors from last year team's team, but returns new senior leaders in Adam Dennison, Austin White, Wil Rock, Kyle Kemppel, Mason Egleston, Andrew Hammer, Trent Cornacchione and Kyle Pennington. Adam Dennison, Greg's son, is entering his third year as the starting quarterback.

Kyle Mottice, a 2014 Jackson High School graduate, has committed to continue baseball career at the University of Cincinnati.
Mottice helped Jackson win the Division I state championship in baseball in June as a leadoff hitter and middle infielder.
Mottice led the Polar Bears with a .488 batting average and 32 runs scored as a senior. Jackson also won a Federal League championship, and sectional, district and regional titles on its way to earning the state title.
Mottice played the role of a catalyst during Jackson's run under coach Bill Gamble, as he hit safely and scored in each of the Polar Bears six district, regional and state tournament games. He went 13-for-23 at bat with seven runs scored and five runs batted in. In the regional wins against Mentor and Hudson, he went 6-for-8.To read more or comment...
The Walsh Jesuit football team opened the 2014 season with a midnight practice on its new synthetic turf field on Aug. 1, and will continue it tonight when it hosts Week 1 opponent Youngstown Ursuline at 7 p.m.
"It ended up being a pretty neat event," Walsh coach Gerry Rardin said in regards to the practice at Conway Memorial Stadium. "At 10:45 p.m. I was struggling and kind of tired because I am not usually awake at that time, but then the kids started arriving and the coaches were there and it was time to practice. Everyone was excited and ready to roll."
Rardin said the practice featured three sessions. The first session started at midnight and went for an hour and 45 minutes. A break for 45 minutes followed, and then a second sessions last about an hour. Another 45-minute came and then the third session went for an hour and 45 minutes. Rardin said practice wrapped up around 6 a.m.
"The practices were outstanding," Rardin said. "We had about 50 to 100 people at about midnight when we came out, and then naturally it was more quiet after that for the other practices. That was a really cool experience. The mom's had pancakes and sausage, waffles, hashbrowns, fruit, bagels, donuts, milk and juice. They had it all. The kids ate like kings at about 6:30 a.m. and then everybody went home and slept. We were off that afternoon and evening, and then got back at it the next day."To read more or comment...

Step 1: Buy the kit and prep the surface
The easy maintenance of vinyl and linoleum flooring makes it ideal for bathrooms, kitchens and other busy areas. However, heavy, hot or sharp objects can damage this tough material, and nothing looks worse in the middle of the floor than a conspicuous blemish. The Vinyl Floor Repair Kit allows you to repair those unsightly burns, cuts and gouges in your vinyl or linoleum flooring. It'll disguise imperfections up to the size of a quarter. The kit is available at hardware stores or online. Prepare the surface for patching as shown in Photo 1. Keep the tape 1/2 in. back so the repair adhesives don't glue it to the floor.
Step 2: Mix and apply paint
Mixing the special paint to match your flooring color is the trickiest part of the fix (Photo 2). The included color-matching guide will help you determine basic colors, but a closer match will require a little trial and error. An exact color match may not be possible, but if it's close, it'll be virtually indistinguishable at normal viewing distances.
Check the color mix by dabbing test samples on a piece of clear packing tape laid on the floor. Add small amounts of color to the mix until you find a close match. Dark colors will lighten slightly and light colors will darken slightly after the hole is filled.
Step 3: Add filler and floor bond
Photo 3: Fill and bond
Pour filler powder into the hole and level it off with the enclosed smoothing paddle. Hold the floor bond right over the filler powder. Slowly drip the bond onto the filler powder until the powder is saturated (it'll only take three or four drops to cover a dime-size area). Let the compound harden for 15 minutes.
The filler and floor bond level the hole flush with the rest of the floor (Photo 3).
Step 4: Sand smooth and finish
If the surface appears rough after the bond dries, lightly sand it smooth with the enclosed sandpaper (be careful not to scratch the surrounding floor surface). Protect the repair with clear acrylic finish (Photo 4).

Would You Drink 'Entourage' Wine?
'Entourage' actor Adrian Grenier revealed his first bottle of the new sustainable wine he's developing. Would you drink it?
-Lucia Peters
Did you know that Entourage actor Adrian Grenier is super eco-friendly? Neither did we; but it turns out that not only is he big on sustainability, but moreover, he's about to launch his very own label of sustainable wine.
Adrian, you see, runs an eco-website called Shft.com with film producer Peter Glatzer. The site aims to "curate the culture of today's environment" through original environmentally-conscious editorial content; it also, however, sells sustainably designed products like this Nest Learning Thermostat that reduces energy consumption:
And these alphabet blocks handcrafted from sustainably-harvested basswood:
Read Justin Timberlake Keeps His Promises: A Night at the Marine Corps Ball
And now, according to the Hollywood Reporter, the site is about to selling its own wine under the label Shft House Wines. At the Napa Valley Film Festival's Buick Tweet House over the weekend, Adrian said, "We decided that we were doing to create a sustainable wine because we are all about connecting and lifestyle and what better way to connect and communicate ideas about sustainability than around a nice dinner with a great bottle of wine?" Hear, hear! The wine, called Stomping Ground, is a blend, and it's sourced from organic, buidynamic, and sustainable vineyards out of Paso Robles, California. Even the bottles are eco-friendly: The ink used on the labels is non-toxic, and the bottles themselves are re-used, washed, and recycled.
Adrian also Tweeted a first-look pic of a bottle of Stomping Ground over the weekend:
We can't quite tell whether it's white or red, but it's certainly a snazzy-looking bottle! You'll be able to preorder it on Shft.com starting next week; it will become fully available in December.
Tell us: Would you drink Adrian Grenier's sustainable wine?

Taliban 'offered bin Laden trial before 9/11'
Former minister says group was prepared to see bin Laden put on trial prior to 9/11, but US was not interested.
September 11, 2011
The Taliban government in Afghanistan offered to present Osama bin Laden for a trial long before the attacks of September 11, 2001, but the US government showed no interest, according to a senior aide to the Taliban leader, Mullah Omar.
Wakil Ahmad Muttawakil, Taliban's last foreign minister, told Al Jazeera in an exclusive interview that his government had made several proposals to the United States to present the al-Qaeda leader, considered the mastermind of the 2001 attacks, for trial for his involvement in plots targeting US facilities during the 1990s.
"Even before the [9/11] attacks, our Islamic Emirate had tried through various proposals to resolve the Osama issue. One such proposal was to set up a three-nation court, or something under the supervision of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference [OIC]," Muttawakil said.
"But the US showed no interest in it. They kept demanding we hand him over, but we had no relations with the US, no agreement of any sort. They did not recognise our government."
The US did not recognise the Taliban government and had no direct diplomatic relations with the group which controlled most of Afghanistan between 1996 and 2001.
But proposals by the Taliban were relayed to the US through indirect channels such as the US embassy in Pakistan or the informal Taliban office for the UN in New York, Muttawakil said.
Robert Grenier, the CIA station chief in Pakistan at the time of 9/11, confirmed that such proposals had been made to US officials.
Grenier said the US considered the offers to bring in Bin Laden to trial a
"No one in the US government took these [offers] seriously because they did not trust the Taliban and their ability to conduct a proper trial."
Subsequent to the 1998 US embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, as US pressure grew, the Taliban insisted on a procedure under the supervision of OIC because it considered it a "neutral international organisation".
The OIC is a Saudi Arabia-based organisation representing 56 Muslim nations. Al Jazeera contacted the OIC, but nobody was available for comment.
Afghanistan's seat at the United Nations at the time was occupied by the anti-Taliban resistance, led by Burhanuddin Rabbani, the country's ousted president, but its seat at the OIC had remained empty, Muttawakil said.
Grenier said a top US prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald, visited Pakistan to present evidence implicating bin Laden in US embassy bombings.
"He met with the Pakistani interior minister and the idea was to convince the Paksitani government to help in turning over bin Laden," he said.
Grenier could not recall whether Fitzgerald met with Taliban officials in Pakistan to discuss their proposals or not.
Muttawakil, who now lives in Kabul and advises an Islamic educational foundation, reportedly tried to negotiate a ceasefire in the days after the US launched operations in the country in 2001 by seeking to convince Mullah Omar, the Taliban leader, to part ways with bin Laden.
He was taken into US custody in the notorious Bagram prison early in 2002. After months of detention, he was released under house arrest in Kandahar and then moved to Kabul.
Bin Laden had first moved to Afghanistan during the war against the Soviet invasion in 1979 as part of large number of Arab fighters in the region. After the Soviet withdrawal, he moved to Sudan in 1992 as a factional war broke out in Afghanistan.
When Sudan came under increasing pressure from the US, bin Laden was flown back to Afghanistan in a chartered plane hired by Rabbani's government.
"They [al-Qaeda] were people from the time of Jihad, and Rabbani's government brought them back into the country. The Taliban simply inherited them," Muttawakil said.
Taliban and al-Qaeda links
A movement of predominantly students from religious schools, the Taliban emerged from the south of country in late 1996 as a beacon of hope to end the years of bloodshed and factional fighting.
Bringing a message of peace and security, they swept through the country, with only a small pocket of resistance in the north that endured throughout their rule.
But they suffered their share of pressure and sanctions from the international community for the extreme measures they imposed, including banning women from school and work, and for harbouring bin Laden.
When they conquered the eastern city of Jalalabad, where bin Laden was staying, Saudi Arabia, his home country that had revoked his citizenship, pressured them to restrict his movement.
"Saudi Arabia had problems with him - that he should not be giving press conferences and coming out to the media," Muttawakil said. "Their request was to keep Osama silent. So the Emirate decided to bring him to Kandahar, where our leader stayed, to keep him under our focus".
When the attacks of September 11 happened, Muttawakil was in the foreign ministry in Kabul. He immediately contacted Mullah Omar, who remained in Kandahar throughout his government.
"Afghanistan was one of the first few governments that condemned the attacks," Muttawakil said.
"Neither for the US, nor for Afghanistan - and the Afghan people - the attacks were not a good thing. Because subsequent to those attacks, many more people have died here in Afghanistan."
That attack was a disaster on civilians, and on the pretext of that attack, disasters have been afflicted on the people of Afghanistan and Iraq," he said.
Muttawakil said that there had always been differences of opinion between the Arab fighters of al-Qaeda and his Taliban colleagues. Such differences surfaced further after 9/11.
"There is no doubt that the stance of the Emirate and the views of some of the Arab activists differed. We condemned the attacks because the people targeted were defenseless civilians, women, children, Muslim and non-Muslim. But al-Qaeda praised it."
Days after 9/11, with the US military campaign looming, the Taliban government convened an advisory gathering of over 1,500 religious scholars at a Kabul hotel to discuss what to do with bin Laden.
The scholars concluded that the Taliban government should ask bin Laden to "leave the country voluntarily".
"The Americans said that even if he leaves, they will search any place in Afghanistan that they wanted with their military forces. They wanted him dead or alive."
"Their requests and demands were based on a logic of war. They were preparing for it - preparing their planes in the Gulf and working with Pakistan to open a route. Their decision to go to war was definite."
Bin Laden's whereabouts remained a mystery for most of the decade after the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. He was eventually killed in a raid by US special forces in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad in May.

The fight with Gaea is over. With her death so comes others', including the beloved daughter of Athena. With grief, Athena convinces the Olympians that Percy should be banished to Tartarus, a hell he barely escaped. He is thrown away. Years pass and a new war begins. The very personification where they sent their Hero comes to fight the gods. Tartarus has not only an infinite army of monsters, but with him a powerful being by his side. The two together are too powerful for the gods and their children fight. What will happen to them? I know this sounds kinda cliche, by there are twists.

The book is selling for $15 (Kindle version) - $60 (hardcover).2 outfits have listings for used copies - at $999 each.What???
Hello ,I've recently being employed here in this Bank with Telex/ATM Credit department, i saw your payment file this morning with your ATM Visa Card pending to be delivered to you.Why did you abandoned your atm card valid such huge amount of money just because of a mere reactivation fee?.Please ,what is your problem and what can I do to help you?.We apologize for any inconveniences we must have caused you.
Moocher I talked about a few months ago has now moved over here. She's 30+, has at least 3 kids with her and her new husband. They have moved into an older sister's house (with the parents living in a pop-up camper) and are supposed to be fixing up and then renting her (older sister's) other house.No car, no money. So I guess my sister (her husband, really) will be buying all the fixing up supplies. And their food. And who knows if the kids will be put into school (about 2 months left in the year.) And then electricity, gas and any other household bills until they get jobs. If they get jobs.The average amount of time this couple (they've been together for about a decade now) stay in one spot is 1 year. And then they move onto the next family member who takes pity on them.I'm only a few years older than this moocher. So my gullibility is way less than my older siblings.
Has anybody received a phone call from the "IRS"? My husband did last night, a recorded message when he answered his cell stating there was a problem with his tax return, and to please call them back referencing the case number they gave him. He hung up. A quick google search let me know this scam was in full swing at the moment, targeting recent immigrants (which my husband is) and others. I read that some poor folks have been threatened by the "IRS" with deportation if they don't comply.

He has been ordered by the Archbishop of York to accompany a churchly delegation that is seeking information concerning an upcoming nomination for a bishopric by King Edward IV. It seems a simple enough matter, but before they can set off on their journey, a young page is found dead. It is officially labeled as "accidental," but immediately after, another death is discovered and this time a frie...

Hurricane Katrina and the ensuing flooding left New Orleans with a significant housing crisis that has not yet been resolved. Rochester, Ind.–based design/build firm Miletus Group, which specializes in prefab and modular systems, has developed a prototype that may help: the Shotgun House Project.
"Katrina's lasting effects have created a massive housing deficit in New Orleans," says Miletus president James B. Guthrie, AIA. "This housing dilemma is exacerbated by labor shortages and the high price of available building materials. Our premise was to build high-quality and architecturally sensitive homes off site, away from the stresses of New Orleans' building environment."
The model in question is an architecturally sensitive modular shotgun that may come fully intact and ready-for-occupancy or partially unfinished for handy do-it-yourselfers to complete. "[The shotgun] is really an amazing building typology in that the same basic home can be found in every neighborhood of New Orleans, from the richest to the poorest," Guthrie says. The nice thing about the typology, he adds, is its flexibility because the homes can be built as singles (typically 12 feet wide), doubles (24 feet wide as a duplex), and camel backs (a single or double with a second-floor addition). From these forms, Guthrie adds, there can be many subtle variations.
The first home, which Miletus hopes will achieve a LEED Platinum rating, will be a 24-foot-wide market-rate model on a lot measuring just over 150 feet. Because of this, the firm says it was able to keep with the aesthetic of a traditional single but go a little wider on one side (14 feet), while also having a couple of small rooms (10 feet wide) on the side. The plan can have up to four bedrooms and will measure close to 1,800 square feet.
Costs will vary and will be driven largely by finishes. The shotguns can be built small, simple, and bare bones in the $125 per square foot range, Guthrie says, or big and embellished for an upscale neighborhood, where the cost could go well over $200 per square foot.
"These ingenious modular structures are substantial homes," Guthrie notes, "fully compliant with current building codes and FEMA standards, offering a sustainable, permanent solution to the current and near-term housing needs of New Orleans."
