Early 20th Century Genealogy
Abrams Collection Genealogy Highlights
Summer 2004
Volume 6, Number 3
New millenniums tend to worry people. Yet the truth be told, no one year can be that radically different than the year before. So what was so special about the dawn of the 20th century? Not that much, except perhaps the mindset of the people who experienced it. Civil War veterans were aging, many passing away, but plenty lived to experience the first decades of the 20th century. Technology was advancing, like it had since man first used tools; steam engines had been used in the United States since 1804. Day-by-day changes were gradual, but the public's ability to witness them increased.
Fast and safe transportation allowed people to travel longer distances more often, allowing people to see the advancements in technology. More people could travel to the Pan-American Exposition in 1901, the Palace of Machinery and Electricity at the World's Fair in 1904 and The Century of Progress exhibit in 1933-1934. These expositions were "Progress Made Visible" prior to television, and the American population could take them in through travel or popular weekly journals.
Americans themselves changed as well over the decades. While the rate of immigration remained fairly constant, the makeup of the immigrants changed. In 1890, 1,871,509 immigrants identified themselves as Irish. By 1930, this number had dropped to 744,810. German immigrants numbered 2,784,894 in 1890 and only 1,608,814 in 1930. The larger groups, which resettled in the United States in the early 20th century, hailed in a good part from Eastern and Southern Europe. 6,185 Spanish immigrants arrived in 1890, while 59,362 came to stay in 1930. In 1890, 182,644 folks traveled from Russia; in 1930 that number had increased to 1,153,628. Other significant increases came from Italy, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Africa and Mexico.
Where Americans lived also changed. In the first two centuries of the American experience, families could simply move west to acquire more land for less money. By the turn of the 20th century, most of that inexpensive land had been taken up with a few exceptions. While the immigration rate stayed steady, the population did not, nor did the economic base of the country. In 1890, well after the launch of the Industrial Revolution, 64 percent of Americans lived in rural areas. By 1930 only 43.8 percent lived in the countryside. The majority of Americans now lived in cities and no longer farmed. This new face of America resulted in political, social, religious and labor changes, which poses some challenges for genealogical researchers as well as some new resources yet to be fully utilized.

In today's economy, producers are adopting plans that focus on achieving full plant utilization with minimal staff. In many plants, these operating constraints place incredible demands on the maintenance crews.
Trimmed to the bone, just performing the needed scheduled maintenance can tax these employees. It's no wonder that many employees value their long holiday weekends and extended holiday shutdowns as a respite and a chance to reconnect with their families.
Yet as producers search for ways to yield greater efficiencies or to expand capacities, managers are discovering that the need for improvement never takes a holiday. That's why some are redefining how they view their downtime periods.
For example, production employees at several Coreslab Structures plants have returned from their time off to new and/or upgraded facilities. Coreslab Structures, a prestress and precast producer based in Dundas, Ontario, has partnered with a third party design/erect contractor to retrofit plants during planned shutdowns. While perhaps unique to the concrete production industry, weekend retrofits are common in other industries with high volume and tight production schedules.
For the past few years, Coreslab managers have entrusted Plant Architects and Plant Outfitters with several of these holiday makeovers. In fact, many have occurred in some of Coreslab's 19 plants across the U.S. and Canada.
Coreslab managers have used these traditional idle periods to conduct a wide range of needed repairs and upgrades. Crews from the design-erect contractor have upgraded and exchanged mixers, replaced bins, and even added whole production lines during major holiday shutdowns. "Our crews have become accustomed to taking time off during the week, as we have worked over several Memorial and Labor Day weekends, the Fourth of July, Easter week, Thanksgiving, and even Christmas," says Robert Ober, CEO of Plant Architects and Plant Outfitters.
Reducing lost time
Bringing in a team of plant repair professionals to conduct a holiday make-over has many benefits. Obviously, lost production time is curtailed. Plant employees can focus on what they do best—keeping their operations running safely at full capacity.
Since most holiday makeovers involve onsite pre-erection fabrication, plant engineers and key maintenance supervisors can closely coordinate and monitor the contractors' preliminary work. The communication ensures an efficient start-up on the first day back. During start-up, the contractor's crew can provide a needed hand for any unforeseen adjustments. And when the plant is back to full capacity, the erection crews help the plant's crew focus on their normal tasks by removing any unused items.
Along with avoiding plant overtime and additional staffing, there's also the potential cost savings in delivery freight and unnecessary purchasing costs. Ober's group agrees to supply the material needed for the tasks, including all of the supplies used during installation: nuts and bolts, slings, and any structural steel. "Since this is our only job, we are geared up to be ready for almost all challenges," says Ober.
"Many producers don't know there are companies that specialize in weekend and holiday business for our industry," says Ober. He describes his group as a "one-stop specialty contractor," offering total onsite fabrication of new concrete plants, major retrofitting, and quick turnarounds. His services include design and process engineering, project planning, and construction management and services, including specialized ironworker crews for demolition, installation, millwright, and electrical crews.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by maxdallasfan, Oct 12, 2012.
Cowboys fans outside of Texas > Cowboys fans in Texas.
Help me with the sig pic.
Is he dressed like a her, .. or does she look like a he?
Yea, SEC games are real tame :laugh2:
Well, I couldn't disagree more. We can argue all day whether it should or should not have an impact on the players, but athletes DEFINITELY feed off the energy in the crowd. I mean, Dallas comes out flat at home every week, it shouldn't be a major surprise that they have some of the flattest fans in the country.
I'm from New York tbh. My family is from Dallas. Don't get me wrong, the DFW area overall is great. Looking to move out there eventually. That being said it seems the people out there are fair weather fans when it comes to their teams.
DFW blows chunks, looking to get out of here eventually, it's stale.
Is anyone going to respond to the fact that the patriots have one of the flattest crowds in football and won 3 superbowls?
Troy and Jason are correct. DFW sports fans are some of the most wishy washy in the nation when it comes to EVERY sport. The only true fanatics are soccer fans from every other country on earth except here. Also known as 'Hooligans'. They have DIED for their teams and have killed players for blowing big games. I went a big rivalry soccer game in south America and the fans from each team were being funneled to the stadium by different routes to avoid brawls and had to go in diefferent entrances. Same after the game. Police in riot gear lined the streets.I was wearing one of the teams' jerseys and the person I was with told me to cover it up until we got inside. They make Philly fans look tame by comparison.
Soccer is stupid.
Most popular spectator sport in the world, though.
Jealous much? Sucks always being the little brother don't it? :laugh2: The only thing good that came from Oklahoma was my mom, Aikman, and I guess that lame musical "Oklahoma".
I live here and this is 110% accurate. The fans here are the biggest fair weather fans anywhere. It's hard to find people around you that are true die hard Cowboys fans.
Also the Cowboys fans in other states.. especially California are a lot more passionate and yell and scream a lot more for the Cowboys than the fans here.
People are silly.. when was he ever blaming the fans for the teams' success or lack thereof?
Never.. he was simply responding to a statement about the home field advantage question. Didn't say its their fault Dallas doesn't win more, just spoke honestly about the environment there.
Some of you need to get a grip..
Who cares? Are you saying fans should not be more passionate and try to be the 12th man? Seattle has a huge home field advantage with their crowd. They happen to suck on the road though.
Baltimore is another team that has an awesome home crowd. I have been to many of their games and they are a blast.
Ditto that. And the Hooliganism isn't what sports is about, it is completely stupid and I don't understand what would possess people to be a part of that.
It's weird reading all this. I'm in Toronto and we're notorious for having quiet boring fans.
Sounds like I wouldn't miss a beat if I went to a Cowboys home game. It'd feel like I'd never left TO.
Ah well, loud crowds haven't done a whole lot of good for Seattle or KC lately so, as in all things....
I'm saying the idiots claiming that we're not doing as well as we could be because we don't have raucous fans are full of it. We didn't need fans to win 3 superbowls. the pats didn't need fans to win 3 superbowls.
we're only complaining because the product on the field isn't up to expectation.
I'd be glad if we had a killer crowd, but people who are pissed about it seem to be connecting it to the W/L which just isn't true.
How do local, Texas, fans of high school and college compare to DFW pro fans?
Go Pistol Hill
I'm a diehard from Dallas... Would never want to go to a Cowboys game.
1) I prefer watching it on HD on my TV at home. I hate having people around me talk like they know anything about the Cowboys. "Romo sucks, blah, blah.."
2) b/c it's too damn expensive
I wouldn't connect it at all to our teams woes right now but it can have an effect on the outcome of a game that is decided by inches.
Our crowd and most local fans suck in a major way and it really pains me to say that.
We as 'fans', can't understand what being a true 'fanatic' is all about IMO. I am however, a Die-hard Dallas sports fan. From Moody Madness to Arlington stadium to Stanley Cup playoff games at Reunion Arena or a Cowboy game at the Cotton Bowl, I've been there. And will continue to be until I die.

I never thought it was bad, I did like a lot of the newer features to Maps... but still, at 3am it took me on an off road adventure on a dark mountain road in Virginia... Thanks Maps for the wrong directions.. that was one FUN detour down that windy dirt road to what I though was heading to my hotel. My 4 Runner & I would like to thank Apple for that AWESOME wrong turn... and the 5min drive back... THE BEST 10 minutes ever waisted!!!
this is good. fire the people that are stalling IOS innovations.
I love Maps. I haven't had any problem or have I ever got lost. It always took me to the correct location.
It's great that there are some people who like Apple Maps. I believe they work in some parts of the USA.
But hows your StreetView?
For most people outside of the USA they are awful as maps, add the fact that satellite view is very poor and StreetView non existent means that lots of people, myself included, are not going to upgrade (I have upgraded my phone but not my iPad so I have used both) due solely to the appalling Maps.
Only mistake this guy made was purchasing data from tom tom. I'm sure cook shot him down when he asked if he could work out a deal with google for their data...
Also, if people are so pissed by map inaccuracies - REPORT THEM! I've had no problem with the app so far, but if I did, I'd report it using the nifty little built in 'i' button that lets you report mistakes. Seems like Williams knew there would be problems with tom tom data - but then, tom tom has always had crappy data.
If this was beta I would be complaining that it is still alpha. It certainly isn't something that should be released to the public.
TomToms data is far, far superior to this piece of ****.
Apart from the fact that the maps don't work their great. They need another data provider and then the maps will work flawlessly imo.
Satellite view needs to be sorted out also more shops and local businesses. One thing that should be easy but isn't though, locating football stadiums. For example maps refuses to acknowledge "Old Trafford" but works if you search "Old Trafford Manchester".
Go through the whole of the premiership (english premier league) and try and find every clubs ground. I guarantee you'll have trouble locating some of the smaller clubs.
Would it be too much to ask for more 3D locations either?
Here is the funny thing i have navigon for usa and canada and apple maps on iphone 5. I have personally checked that if i put in the address of my workplace in navigon it shows the wrong location 3 of my family members got lost coming to my job but apple maps always gets it right for me here in GA

Out on the street, Chance is hit by the limousine of an influential businessman's wife, who takes him home as a guest. When Chance's references from television and to his garden are taken as metaphors, he is assumed to be a great thinker and becomes a Washington insider.

The Ultimate Train Knitter on the NYC Subway
I didn't take this photo. I have no idea who did. I followed an attribution trail back to In-Public.com, but can't find it there so it may be that the original post, and thus the copyright holder, is lost in the abyss. So sad, because the photographer deserves a trophy. Check this dude out!
Is he not the most fabulous train knitter you've ever seen? That is some serious head-to-toe action right there! The only plausible explanation is that he's a superhero named Colby Jack, and this is his superhero costume.
I wonder what he's making. It looks rather tame compared to the fantastic marbled yellow.

I, a millennial, am not leaving the church. Recently there has been a small flashflood of articles unearthing possible reasons and remedies for the ongoing exodus of millennials from the Christian church. I read them as a stranger to the departing crowd.
Rachel Held Evans suggested toning down the trendiness and giving a listening ear to the thoughts and passions of a millennial near you. We are actually thinking about the creeds, science and faith, sexuality, and holiness, but we wonder over them in questions, not "predetermined answers." Her last word is to "encourage church leaders eager to win millennials back to sit down and really talk with them about what they're looking for and what they would like to contribute to a faith community."
Brett McCracken rebutted, asking millennials to give a listening ear to age and wisdom. Millennials are highly sensitive to nearby flaky self-images and the nearest one is our own. 'Tis our season to scrabble through liminal self-perceptions toward a strongly rooted identity. So, the church should take a cue from the millennial and become as sensitive to their potential fakeness as they are to hers. McCracken thinks "that the answer is decidedly not to sit the Millennial down and have him or her dictate exactly what they think the church should be. But this is what Evans suggests."
Not quite. Evans got timid with her final plea and left it vague. McCracken is being unfair, inserting this scenario when nothing in Evans' statement gestures to it. Picture this specimen Millennial in a coffee shop with this specimen church-goer/deacon/die-hard. Never mind who asked whom.
There should be mutual listening. If either person actually thought they were coming to give a monologue, they could have found a pulpit or a stage. This is a conversation. Each speaker shuts up every few sentences. Granted, when people are ignored outright, intervention is advisable. But opening the dialogue by staking out one party's right to be heard over another doesn't allow for much traction down the road. If we all concede that good listening is lacking but key and then promise to stop tuning out our counselors' or therapists' practical tips to improve active listening, real conversations are just around the corner.
Where Evans and McCracken solidly agree, I ask for a significant nuance. In McCracken's words, "Christianity has become too obsessed with how it is perceived." I could easily interpret that two different ways: either he means 'obsessed with first impressions' or 'obsessed with the self-image.' If the latter, then of course we are obsessed with how we are perceived. Christianity nurtures concern for self-image. What begins as a shallow itch for approval is just the shadow of our deep human longing to be seen. We are created: we are created beautiful as well as functional: we are art. As art invites an audience, so we long to be displayed to each other. For Christ to completely restore us to what makes us truly human, we may only expect Him to increase our hunger for more and more attention.
But if in fact we are obsessed with making first impressions, no wonder we are frustrated. First impressions are one or a series of quick insights about a person based on visual (or other sensory) impressions. I don't say judgments because the word connotes a distasteful opinion that we'll probably end up dismissing as incorrect. Perceptions could be entirely correct. They just aren't going to be deep. What we need in addition to first impressions is a certain space to be seen, where those impressions will purposefully become contemplation.
There's no way to be a functioning human for long in a gallery space. We're best displayed elsewhere in the space of shared experiences, alongside creations like ourselves. There, seeing and being seen are real possibilities.
Maybe we look to family, friends and professional circles or artistic communities for shared experiences. Yet, in proportion to human history, these are young, recent communities. Additionally, they may be more transient than permanent. They are less-than-guaranteed spaces for shared experience. The church is human history's longest living community. It offers an extensive architecture of shared experiences (cf. its calendar, reformations and revivals, plus contributions to art). It is a certain space to be seen.
And so I remain a millennial church-goer. While my voice matters, I don't stay on the condition that I am heard. Although my elders' wisdom is a far better gift, I'll persist to give as well as receive. Many, many concerns prick me every time I go to worship—I notice her lack of good discourse on human sexuality, feel her tight rein on artistic honesty, and wonder when her missionaries will feel called to America. These concerns are powerful enough to activate me toward change and confrontation within the church, but will never rise to become conditions for remaining in the church. I pray to love the church as I hope to be loved: unconditionally. And similarly, I affirm that both the church and millennials have responsibility toward each other—to heed or challenge concerns, not as terms and conditions, but as doorways to unconditional love.

Post subject: The Rulebook
When posting on the forums please take the following into consideration.
1. Check for duplicates. Try to add your comments to an existing topic if possible. While everyone here is interested in the draft and free agency, we have already had many discussions on who to cut, who we should resign, and who we should draft. While we all like to try and comment on as many subjects as possible, it can get boring to keep replying to the same topics. Furthermore, it makes it very difficult when the same subject (for example, Culpepper), comes up in 12 different threads. So please look on the first page to see if we already have a topic similar to the one you wanted to start, and add your ideas/comments to that. Also, if someone posts a link to an existing thread about the same topic, please post your comments in that thread.
2. Please keep the posts on topic. This is the Miami Dolphins forum. Unless your posts are related to the Dolphins in some way, please don't post it in here. The best example of this is Free Agency. For instance, say you want to know how we would feel about trading for Kellen Winslow II. Instead of just making a topic asking "Do you like him?", try to make it involved with the Dolphins, perhaps by asking "We know Miami needs a legitimate TE. Do you think Winslow would be a good fit for us? He seems to have worn out his welcome a bit and I think we could offer CLE a player and a draft pick for him. What do you guys think?" See the difference there. One is ambigous and hard to really discuss. The other is clear to understand, original, and sparks good discussion. The latter is what members are interested in discussing and help make Football's Future the best draft site around.
3. Strive for quality. Avoid starting a topic just to ask a question or something that can be looked up on Google or Yahoo or Wikipedia in 30 seconds. This is an important one if we want this site to be the best on the web. No one here knows everything so don't feel embarassed about that. But rather than asking questions like "Who did Miami pick in the 2003 draft?" or "How old is Ricky Williams?", take some time to research it on the web and find your answer. Then, your post will be more insightful rather than asking questions which could be answered yourself.
4. Proof read your post. Everyone makes typos and misspell words. But take a minute to proof read and make sure your post makes sense. One of the most annoying things is reading a topic with grammar such as "yo i heer dat we gonna cut zack tomas wut up wit dat" The more effort you put in your posts, the more effort others will take to reply and the more they will respect you. It's hard to make a valid point when we can't understand what you write, so please do your best to have correct spelling and grammar.
Also, if you're a lousy speller, here's a helpful hint: download and use the FireFox 2.0 browser. It has a built in spell checker and will really help you cut down on the misspellings. (Although, you're still on your own for grammar.)
5. Give your topic a descriptive subject which lets members know what they can expect in the post. Most people only read and post on topics that interest them. If you post a topic that says "What should we do?" or "OLBs", it's very vague and will not likely capture any attention. This is the case especially to non-Dolphins fans who start a topic in here. A topic that just says "Dante" will get less looks and responses than one that says "Are the Dolphins going to cut Culpepper?" Be specific with what you are asking or discussing, it also helps to rid of duplicate threads as well.
Finally, a few extra pieces of advice:
Arrow We're all here to have fun and talk Miami Dolphins football. The Dolphins forum has been here longer than you have and its primary goal is a place where people can exchange news and thoughts about the Dolphins in a friendly environment. Also understand that this forum has developed its own protocol and etiquette in regards to how posts are made here. You are welcome to disagree with other posters' views -- everyone is allowed their opinion -- but be respectful of your fellow posters and the community that's been developed here. Do not take disagreements to a personal level.
Arrow Don't be defensive If you receive negative feedback on your idea, your posting style, or if someone just plain disagrees with you in general, don't get defensive. Take it as the person is trying to offer you some constructive criticism designed to help you better understand football, the Dolphins, this forum, or a combination of the three.
Arrow Never hesitate to talk to a moderator or an MVP if you have questions. All of the moderators on the site have a responsibility to keep the forum clean of problems. While they aren't obligated, the MVPs are very interested in having the site's content kept at a high level. If you have a problem, question, or issue with ANYTHING going on here, please PM one of them (and the Dolphins forum has a lot) and we will help you. We all want everyone to enjoy themselves here, and will do our best to ensure that your experience here is a happy one.
If you don't yet have PM priviligaes and have an issue, don't worry about it. These forums are read very frequently and someone will see any issues if things start to get out of hand.
Arrow Realize that the "dirty work" needs to get done. Duplicate threads will be locked. So will threads which break the rules. Inappropriate threads and posts will be deleted. Posters who break the rules will get warnings. Posters who break the rules repeatedly will be banned. Those are the rules. If you don't like the rules, then don't post here. There are hundreds of other football related message boards out there. But know that those of us who've been posting here for a while actually happen to like the rules because we think that they make this site the best sports-related discussion site on the internet.
Arrow Please read and understand the rules

The Lakers and the Buss family released a statement shooting down a published report suggesting they might sell the franchise to an outside group.
"We unanimously agree that we have no intention of ever selling the Lakers, and intend to keep ownership of the team in our family for generations to come," the statement read.
Jerry Buss, 78, has owned the Lakers since 1979, when he purchased the team along with the Forum, the NHL's Kings and a 13,000-acre ranch in Kern County for $67million from Jack Kent Cooke. Since then, the Lakers have become one of the sport's top franchises, winning 10 of their 16 NBA championships under Buss' watch.
In recent years, Buss has experienced declining health and has gradually ceded more control of the Lakers.
Buss' daughter, Jeanie, is the team's executive vice president of business operations, while Buss' son, Jim, is the team's executive vice president of player personnel. The Lakers were recently listed by Forbes Magazine as the second-most-valuable NBA team at $1billion, trailing the New York Knicks.
Not lacking effort
With the Lakers showing little sign they'll climb out of the Western Conference cellar, coach Mike D'Antoni conceded what many fans have thought about him in recent weeks.
"We're not where we need to be," D'Antoni said. "I'm the coach. I'm not doing what I need to do. But it's not a lack of effort from anybody. We're trying. We're trying to solve it."
Don't expect the Lakers to fire D'Antoni, however. When the Lakers fired Mike Brown following a 1-4 start, he had $10million left on his contract through the 2013-14 season. D'Antoni signed with the Lakers on a $12million deal that lasts through the 2014-15 season, with a team option the following year. Meanwhile, the Lakers already have a $100million payroll and an additional $30million in luxury taxes.
It sounds ridiculous to ask, considering the Lakers boast four future Hall of Famers in Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash, Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol, but does D'Antoni believe he has the pieces needed to turn things around?
"Yeah, I do," he said. "That's the sad part. I think we do have enough."
D'Antoni conceded he hasn't convinced everyone to embrace their roles.
"It's a challenge," D'Antoni said. "There's no doubt about it, trying to get everybody on the same page."

VANTAGE — Blistering hot in midsummer and bitterly cold in the dead of winter, Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park is best visited in the spring or fall.
Westsiders blast past it on their way to concerts at the Gorge Amphitheatre. Central Washington residents often overlook it on their way to Spokane or other points east.
And that's too bad, because this 7,470-acre park state park contains the aftermath of two cataclysmic geologic events: massive lava flows and flooding on an unimaginable scale.
Some 15 million years ago, this now-stark landscape was a forest of oak, maple and ginkgo. But when the earth opened in the area of what is now Idaho, vast flows of lava rolled westward, burying animals and entire trees.
Mud and water protected some of the trees as they were entombed under the hardening lava.
Over time, water carried minerals that replaced the vegetation while retaining its shape and characteristics, such as bark and tree rings.
Today, the remains of these trees can be viewed from a series of trails leaving from the state park visitors center off the Old Vantage Highway.
Another set of rocks scattered through the area tell of an entirely different event, the Ice Age Floods, which took place 12,000 to 18,000 years ago. Huge walls of water repeatedly washed across Central Washington when giant ice dams gave way, releasing a lake of water that covered a good portion of modern-day Montana.
Embedded in huge chunks of ice that were carried along by the floods were rocks, called erratics. Erratics can be found scattered across the park. The rocks, while covered with lichen, come from Montana and are different from the basalt that otherwise found in the region.
The Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park is open during the summer from 6:30 a.m. to dusk. Winter months, defined as Nov. 1 through March 1, the park is open from 8 a.m. to dusk on weekends and holidays only.

Hello all and welcome to Team Carbonair's new site on the Hub. Since this is our first year using the Hub, things will progress slowly as we transfer everything over from our previous website over to this one.
The year has begun and so has the progress on the vehicles. A quick update on what has gone on so far this year:
1) The team has been registered for two competitions: the SAE Supermileage Competition and the Shell EcoMarathon.
2) The steering system has been improved to reduce the amount of play in the steering system.
3) The electrical team created a proposal that was presented to Dr. Panhans (ME Dept. Chairperson) and members of the Electrical Engineering Department to discuss the possibility of constructing an electric car.
4) The body team has received the wooden molds used to lay up the carbon fiber body from MCT, one of our many sponsors, and has begun the process of making the body.
5) The engine team has been working on redesigning our fuel delivery systems in order to simplify them and reduce weight. They have also designing a new intake for the engine and researching the new engine that SAE International will be requiring for the SAE Competitions in upcoming years.
If you have any suggestions on how we can improve this site, please let us know in the comments below!


text: I haven't heard anything about Arkin in this offseason but we have kept him around for some reason. He hasn't played at all. Could he be like Austin who seemed to come out of nowhere to contribute, or will he be cut prior to the start of the season like I expect him to be? If they don't expect him to be a major contributor this year why keep him on the roster?

Walker, Beavan in consideration to start Tuesday at Texas - April 11, 2014

SAFECO FIELD - The Seattle Mariners still have not made a decision as to who will start Tuesday against the Texas Rangers, but the likely candidates are either Taijuan Walker or Blake Beavan.
Walker is still working back from a right shoulder impingement suffered in spring training while Beavan has started the season at Triple-A Tacoma.
Walker has a brighter future and is expected to be a focal point of the Mariners' rotation for a long time, but McClendon won't rush him back into the lineup.
"We want to be cautious with Taijuan," McClendon said. "We have to makes sure he's ready to compete at this level. The game is a little bit more stressful at this level than it is the minor league level. The number of pitches that you throw. The outs that you get are going to be harder. You have to take all of that into account when we decide if we are going to bring him or somebody else."
Ultimately, McClendon wants Walker to be 100 percent and ready to go without limitation when he's added back to the roster.
"We have to make sure that if he's the guy we are going to bring, he's gotta be ready to compete at this level and there are no bars or limitations," McClendon said.
McClendon said the decision will likely be made within the next 24 hours.
Meanwhile, Hisashi Iwakuma is expected to throw a 50-pitch bullpen session on Saturday. McClendon said Iwakuma is still a couple bullpen sessions away from being able to face live hitters. That step would happen prior to Iwakuma being sent for a rehab assignment.
James Paxton received a shot to help aid healing of his strained lat muscle. McClendon said he would receive treatment and be re-evaluated in 7-8 days. A rehab plan would then be implemented at that point.

How to Steal Bob Dylan's Style, Right Now
He's handsome enough to wear anything and always looks appropriate — especially in head-to-toe, peak-lapel-topped Zegna. But would it kill him to have a bit more fun at Cannes? Isn't that kind of the point?
That's more like it. A colorful suit should be embraced, especially on the beach and especially during the daytime. The perfect way to pull of this look, though? Add a punch of color with your shirt as well. Those Giorgio Armani 836S shades do help, though — a lot.

A BLAZE which killed a frail 80-year-old Christ-church woman was probably caused by an electrical fault, an inquest heard.
Marie-Noelle Holliday suffered 30 per cent burns and died of shock following the tragedy at her home in Avon Buildings, off Bargates, in August last year, District Coroner Sheriff Payne was told.
The Bournemouth inquest heard Mrs Holliday's next door neighbour, Jeanne Cummins, had visited her just an hour before the fire was discovered at 8pm.
Mrs Cummins said her neighbour, known as Mimi, told her she was going to have a meal and that nothing was out of the ordinary in her house.
Fire investigator David Myers, a Dorset Fire and Rescue District Commander, told the coroner he believes one of a number of electrical appliances in the kitchen was the cause of the blaze.
He said it was possible that Mrs Holliday became aware of the fire while she was in the lounge and was overcome by smoke or flames when she went to investigate.
Mrs Holliday had lived in the two-storey terraced property since the 1970s and was supported by friends and neighbours, the inquest was told.
Her son Jean-Michel works as a school teacher in Shropshire but lived with his mother during school holidays.
After the inquest he told the Daily Echo his mother moved to London from France to study English as a young woman and decided to stay in England.
He said: "She was a wonderful mother who I will miss very much. I was working and coming and going a lot – there is no way you can expect something like that to happen."
He added: "I would also like to thank neighbours who were a great help to her – Avon Buildings is a real community."
Mr Payne recorded a verdict of accidental death.

SCOTTSDALE, AZ -- A new partnership will bundle Spindle Inc.'s mobile commerce platform with point-of-sale solutions distributed by Integrated Payments, enabling merchants to accept mobile payments at their locations.
Integrated Payments, based in Austin, TX, distributes POS technology to a network of independent sales organizations and resellers. As part of the new relationship, Spindle has become a preferred provider of mobile commerce technologies to Integrated Payments.
ZingCheckout Inc., also based in Austin, will be the first Integrated Payments partner to accept Spindle-enabled mobile payment transactions at the point of sale.
ZingCheckout provides Web-based (SaaS) retail software. Its POS technology can be used on all major Microsoft Windows or Apple OS X platforms, delivering to merchants a scalable, mobile POS solution, including full support for Apple's iPad.
Through its partnership with Spindle, ZingCheckout will be able to incorporate mobile POS services into its product portfolio so merchants can accept transactions on mobile tablets and smartphones.
Spindle president Bill Clark said that while many point-of-sale providers have mobile wallet technologies in use, very few have an application that works directly within their existing POS infrastructure. Spindle's partnership with Integrated Payments and ZingCheckout allows just that.
"We're impressed with the functionality that Spindle's solution delivers, which is paving the way for consumers to use their mobile phones as an electronic wallet by creating the platform for frictionless payment acceptance," said Keri Golden, president of Integrated Payments.

Brevard, N.C. - The Tornados recognized their five seniors after the game against Columbia (S.C.) College, but first had to play the Fighting Koalas on the court in Boshamer Gymnasium on Saturday afternoon. Fittingly, senior outside hitter Megan Street recorded the game-winning kill in the four-set victory, 23-25, 29-27, 25-21, 25-18.
Sophomore Chelsea Larsen led the Tornados with 13 kills in the match, hitting 16.7 percent to go with 11 digs and two blocks. Brooke Seaman and Ashlie Morrison each had nine kills in the game and Seaman, the Tornados all-time leader in blocks with 520 in her four-year career, added seven to her total in the match.
Bethany Stevenson set up the attack with 40 set assists in the match and Rebecca Schoonover, Chelsey Trojan and Stevenson also joined Larsen with double-digit dig efforts with Schoonover leading the way with a match-high 16.
Columbia was led by Nikki Golston who recorded a game-high 19 kills, hitting 45.5 percent on the afternoon. Tara Prater had 12 kills and Aarika Munro-Steingraeber added 10 to the Fighting Koalas attack, while defensively Columbia was led by Erica Allman's 15 digs.
After the game, Brevard recognized the contributions of Cori Emory, Megan Street, Brooke Seaman, Christin Johnston and Chelsey Trojan to the program throughout their time at Brevard, including leading the team to their second straight Food Lion South Atlantic Conference tournament.
The Tornados continue their season on Friday, November 13th, as Brevard will take on #1 seed Wingate in Greeneville, Tenn. in the first round of the 2009 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Tournament. This will be the second time the teams have met in the tournament, with the Tornados falling in four games to the top-seeded Bulldogs in 2008. First serve between the teams will be announced later this week.

Lifestyle changes can be helpful in a variety of important ways:
- Strengthening your body so that you can withstand some of the rigors of treatment.
- Optimizing the function of your immune system to aid in the fight against cancer.
- Improving your emotional outlook, so you can enjoy life to the fullest, even during treatment for pancreatic cancer.
- Making healthy choices that will help you avoid other medical problems that could complicate your health.
Quit Smoking
Smoking is a known risk factor for many cancers. Although you may have already been diagnosed with cancer, it's not too late to stop smoking. When you quit smoking, you reduce your risk of its many associated medical complications, which should improve your chances of withstanding the physical stresses of cancer and treatment. Also, since the immune system of smokers is generally less effective than nonsmokers, by quitting you may be adding to your immune system's ability to join in the battle against cancer.
Ask your doctor about programs to help you stop smoking, such as group support, hypnosis, and nicotine replacement drugs.
Quit Drinking Alcohol
Alcohol use disorder is associated with pancreatitis. Chronic pancreatitis is a known risk for pancreatic cancer. If you have difficulty or cannot stop drinking, talk to your doctor. Several treatment methods are available to help you stop drinking.
Prevent Diabetes
Diabetes is a known risk factor for pancreatic cancer. You can help prevent diabetes with regular blood sugar testing by your doctor, especially if you have a strong family history for this condition. If you are diagnosed with prediabetes, follow a strict diet and exercise program to prevent it from progressing to diabetes.
Follow a Nutritious Diet
Eating a healthful diet may help you avoid other medical conditions linked to poor nutrition. Because cancer itself and some cancer treatments may have a dulling effect on your appetite, it's important that you make the most of the calories you do take in. A registered dietitian can help you learn more about the best kinds of foods for you to eat and how to eat other, less healthy foods in moderation. Avoid making drastic changes in your diet based on the latest fad.
Increase Activity
If you have not been exercising regularly, check with your doctor to determine a safe exercise program under your current circumstances.
Exercise has many benefits that may help you withstand the physical and emotional stresses of cancer and cancer treatment, including:
- Promoting overall fitness
- Boosting your energy level
- Improving your immune system functioning
- Bolstering your spirits and improving your emotional outlook
You may consider consulting a personal trainer to help you set exercise goals and to safely follow through on initiating an exercise program. While incorporating exercise, be sure to balance rest and activities to prevent your becoming too tired.
Rest When Tired
The treatments for cancer can add to the fatigue you already feel from fighting cancer. In fact, fatigue is the most frequently experienced symptom of cancer and cancer treatments. The fatigue you feel can range from "just feeling tired" to complete and utter exhaustion. Wherever in this range you fall, you may find your fatigue quite distressing and affecting your quality of life.
It is important to allow your body time to rest. This will help your body have the strength to heal itself. Studies have shown a relationship between fatigue and an increased morbidity of cancer and cancer treatments as a result of fatigue's adverse effect on appetite, diminished quality of life, and loss of hope.
To help you avoid getting overtired, try not to do too much. Prioritize the things you need to do, and focus on the most important ones. Also, allow others to help you with daily chores, shopping, and preparing meals. Plan times throughout the day when you can rest.
Reduce Your Risk of Infection
To decrease your risk of infection, avoid exposure to bacteria and viruses:
- Try to avoid crowds, especially during cold and flu season.
- Ask your doctor about immunization against the flu and pneumonia.
- Wash your hands thoroughly and often. Hand washing is the most effective method of decreasing the chance of catching colds and flu. You may wish to carry hand sanitizer with you for occasions when washing is not convenient.
Seek Support
The diagnosis of cancer is a life-defining event that is difficult to handle for anyone. It's common to feel anxious about the impact of your diagnosis and treatment options. You do not have to face cancer alone. Get help from your family, friends, and your community, such as:
- Religious community
- Support groups for people with your type of cancer
- Professional support from social workers, psychologists, and/or psychiatrists who are trained to help support cancer patients and their families
People who allow themselves to seek help while they are recovering from cancer often maintain better emotional control. This can help with facing the challenges of cancer and its treatment. Family and caregivers may also need support. Encourage them to seek support groups or counseling geared toward them.

Grad student to study Brooklyn treasures
by Peggy Binette, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-5400
A University of South Carolina graduate student will spend a week studying one of America's most endangered landmarks.
Konni Shier will study Brooklyn's industrial waterfront and the Brooklyn Bridge in late June as part of a National Endowment for the Humanities program to enhance the teaching of history, literature and other subjects in the liberal arts.
Each year the NEH selects 300 faculty members to attend one of six Landmarks of American History and Culture Workshops. Shier, an adjunct English instructor at Midlands Technical College, is working on her school media and library certificate at USC.
"I chose the Brooklyn workshop because it seemed so edgy and innovative," Shier said. "Urban studies is an exciting field that encompasses many academic disciplines."
Shier will be among 50 teachers who will study the Brooklyn Bridge as well as Brooklyn's naval shipyard, industrial waterfront and Coney Island. The workshop will be directed by New York City College of Technology.
"I'm very excited about studying the Brooklyn Bridge. It was a great source of inspiration to Walt Whitman, and I teach Whitman's poetry in some of my courses," Shier said. "I also love the idea of studying the Coney Island Resort, which naturally made me think of the old Ocean Drive Pavilion in North Myrtle Beach."
The workshop's focus on digital storytelling and mapping dovetails with Shier's research and teaching. In 2011 she won the Two Year College English Association's Nell Ann Pickett Award for her use of Google Earth in the study of how environmental attitudes have evolved in American literature.
"When I looked at an image of a Brooklyn sugar refinery, I thought instantly of the Adluh Flour mill. When looking at historic Brooklyn sites, I hope to get some hands-on experience and ideas," Shier said. "I'd like to design some composition and literature assignments about historic Columbia buildings and neighborhoods, or other historic SC communities and neighborhoods."
NEH summer scholars receive a $1,200 stipend and choose from six workshops. This year's workshops will include an intensive study of African-American history and culture in Georgia; transcendental and reform movements in Concord, Mass.; Georgia O'Keeffe; Brooklyn's industrial waterfront; the War of 1812 in the Great Lakes and western territories; and the Plains Native Americans.
Shier completed her master's in library science from USC in 2011. She earned a bachelor's degree in Italian from Florida State University and master's degrees in English and education from The Citadel. This year she was awarded the Nancy Jane Day Scholarship from the S.C. Association of School Librarians and inducted in Beta Phi Mu.
She is part-time librarian at Columbia College and has a forthcoming article in "Library Media Connection."

How can I build a credit history in the UK?
Dear James,
I hold an American passport but I am a resident of the UK. Please could you tell me how to improve my credit rating with Experian as I am not on the electoral roll? Many thanks
Tamara, Letchworth
Dear Tamara,
Because you're not eligible to vote in UK and EU elections, you can't register on the electoral roll here. This is a problem because in the UK credit reference agencies like Experian include electoral roll information on credit reports to help banks and lenders check your name and address when you apply for credit. As a result, if you're not registered your credit rating may suffer and any credit applications you make may be delayed while the lenders confirm your details some other way. What you can do to help is to add a short note to your credit report explaining why you're not registered to vote here. You could also offer other proof of name and address. The presence of a note will force any credit application you make to be referred out of the lender's credit scoring system. Instead, an underwriter will assess your application, reading your note in the process. It will certainly help if you also have some credit history information on your credit report. Unfortunately, credit reports can't be imported into the UK from the US, so any credit history you built up in the States won't be visible to lenders here. This means that when you move here you essentially start with a blank slate, although you can of course bring a copy of your previous credit report with you and then offer a copy to prospective lenders. You may have some credit history built up in the UK already – a copy of your credit report will reveal this. Banks now register current account overdraft facilities on credit reports so this can be a very helpful stepping stone. A low-value credit product such as a store card might be relatively easy to secure and can also help you build up some positive credit history. You can use the Experian Credit Score to see how you're doing, as this is a guide to how most lenders will rate your Experian credit history. (October 2012)

The first question:
Osho,You talked yesterday of children asserting their egos and rebelling against their parents, of being able to say no. And thus creating a spine, an individuality, a freedom. Osho, do we now come to you and say yes. so that we can drop that ego? By doing so, what will happen to our individuality, freedom and spine?
Nitin, The ego is like a ladder: you have to use it but you cannot build your house on it. Or, the ego is like a boat: you can use it to go to the other shore but then you need not carry it on your head for your whole life. It has something essential to do, but it should not become a burden forever; when its purpose is fulfilled it has to be dropped.
Just as a child needs to say no, the mature person one day needs to say yes. If the child cannot say no to the parents, to the authorities, to the teachers, if the child is unable to disobey, he will not attain to any individuality; he will not have any form, shape. He will be just part of the mob mind, the crowd. He will be impotent, he will not be able to stand on his own. He will not have any self-respect. He will remain hotchpotch, an ugly mess. He will not really be born; he will remain in a psychological womb his whole life, ungrown up. He has to learn how to disobey. And the wise parents will help him to disobey in such a way that disobeying does not distort him. They will give him opportunities to disobey, they will give him opportunities to say no.
That's exactly the meaning of the biblical parable. God said to Adam, "Don't eat the fruit of this tree, the Tree of Knowledge. If you eat the fruit of this tree you will be expelled from paradise." It is a great temptation. It is giving Adam an opportunity to disobey.
And God also said to Adam, "If you eat the fruit of this tree you will become a mortal; right now you are immortal. Secondly, if you eat the fruit of this tree you will become like gods, all-knowing." You see the temptation, the multi-dimensional temptation? First: "You will be able to become like gods, all-knowing." Who would not like to become like gods, all-knowing? And the second, the danger, the risk: "If you eat from this tree you will become mortal; death will start happening to you." Now it is a challenge. Danger always attracts, and death is the greatest danger.

by Liz Szabo, USA TODAY
That lunatic smile.
The eyes that look "at you and through you at the same time."
The rage.
When Darlene Bobich first saw the now-infamous mug shot of Jared Loughner, she immediately recognized his expression. Although Bobich has never met Loughner, the man accused of shooting Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and 18 others, she has seen his wild-eyed look countless times — in the face of her own son.
"I know that smile," says Bobich, whose 23-year-old son, Peter, has been hospitalized seven times in five years for paranoid schizophrenia. "The dilated pupils — I call them shark eyes."
Like other parents of mentally ill children, Bobich loves her son and wants desperately to help him. But she also lives with the fear that she will one day get a call from the police, telling her about something terrible he has done.
The first time Bobich took her son to the emergency room, at age 18, he told her that he had been forced to snap his beloved dog's neck (he hadn't) and was desperately trying to wipe imaginary blood off his clothes. He was poking at the air, explaining that "if he didn't push the buttons, we would all die."
Bobich, 46, a single mother, spent the next five years fighting: to get her son an accurate diagnosis and adequate care; to pay for his treatment and medications; to keep him out of prison; to keep her job and her own sanity.
"It was really isolating and overwhelming, knowing that every day you have to go home to that by yourself," she says.
Bobich eventually became so afraid for her safety that she moved to another state, leaving her native New England for Tennessee.
Experts say getting help for an adult child can be much harder than caring for a youngster, who can be seen by a pediatrician. Bobich's son, for example, won't allow his doctors to share any of his medical information with her, which makes it harder for his mother to help or intervene on his behalf.
In some ways, young adults are especially vulnerable to mental health crises, says Paul Ragan, associate professor of psychiatry at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville. Although people in their early 20s are in the prime of their physical health, they're also going through huge changes — such as graduating from college, moving away, starting a new job — that can leave them without crucial support.
Ragan notes that according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the three leading causes of death for ages 15 to 24 all involve some kind of violence or trauma: unintentional injury, homicide and suicide.
Young adulthood — the late teens and early 20s — is also a time when many mentally ill people experience their first psychotic break, Ragan says.
For a loving parent, the experience is as bewildering as it is terrifying.
With a heart attack or broken arm, "everyone knows where to get services," says Michael Fitzpatrick of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). For bipolar disorder or psychosis, "it's less clear where to get care."
Some families first look for help through the alliance's toll-free hotline, 800-950-NAMI, which fields 6,000 calls a month.
Bobich first heard about NAMI about 18 months into her son's illness. When she finally called, she says, the man who answered said: "First, take a deep breath. I know why you're calling."
Bobich says she burst into tears.
In many cases, the best source of help is a family doctor, particularly one who knows the patient well, says David Pickar, an adjunct professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore. Young adults often can be included on their parents' health plan, Fitzgerald says.
In some ways, things are getting better for people dealing with mental illness, he says. Federal law now requires that health insurance plans — many of which once provided little mental health coverage — make no distinction between medical/surgical care and mental health care, Fitzgerald says. He says he hopes that will encourage more psychiatrists, many of whom have worked on a cash-only basis, to resume taking health insurance.
But many families still struggle to get care. Across the USA, budget cuts have forced hospitals to close 4,000 inpatient psychiatric beds since 2009 — leaving them less able to take in the mentally ill. Arizona has eliminated hundreds of positions for mental health caseworkers, who help coordinate patients' care, Fitzpatrick said.
The uninsured — including Bobich's son — face additional obstacles. Bobich, an administrative assistant, says it took her two years to pay the $1,500 cost of one month's medication for her son. Eventually he qualified for disability payments, which provide him with slightly more than $600 a month. Sometimes, he steals to make ends meet. He has been arrested four times.
Like many with mental illness, he doesn't always take his medication, she says.
Bobich copes by "taking it day by day, hour by hour." And having compassion for everyone touched by the Arizona shooting. "If you pray," she says, "pray for his family, for him — and the families of those he has hurt."

Dell XPS 10 review
Because Windows 8 is a combination of tablet-style touchscreen interface and a traditional Windows desktop, it makes sense for Windows 8 portables to follow the furrow ploughed by Asus with its Transformer tablets. The XPS 10 does just that, thanks to a detachable keyboard and trackpad that turns it from a tablet into a laptop.
Desktop and touchscreen
The XPS 10 is available in pure tablet form but you'll want the detachable keyboard once you flip to the desktop side of the OS. In this case that OS is Windows 8 RT, which means that even though there's a desktop interface beneath the "Metro" touchscreen front-end, only Microsoft-certified apps can be installed on it. Currently that amounts to the Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, Powerpoint and OneNote) and the Explorer browser, all of which are pre-installed on the XPS 10.
Working on the desktop feels fast enough but the teeny weeny fonts and icons are a bit fiddly to operate. Compared to an Android-based Asus Transformer series running Polaris Office, the XPS 10 running MS Office is vastly superior. The software is much more advanced and the familiar file management of Windows RT is a big plus. The inability to install third-party desktop apps makes the XPS 10 less prone to being invaded by viruses and spyware, so you shouldn't need to worry about an army of security apps clogging up the system and slowing things down.
Working on the desktop
Aside from installing apps, the RT desktop works as you'd expect a Windows machine to. For example, you can download a file via a browser, copy it to a folder and then open it with either a desktop app or, in the case of a music file for example, an app running on the Metro interface.
The screen flaps around a bit when the keyboard and tablet are connected but it's perfectly usable on your lap, unlike the Microsoft Surface, which needs a tabletop to be firm enough for QWERTY typing. The styling and build is businesslike rather than stylish, with a rubbery feel to the rear panels, faux chrome detailing and a hinge mechanism that's reasonably sturdy.
Screen resolution
In this age of invisible pixel edges and Retina displays, the XPS 10's 1366x768 lacks the pin-sharp clarity of the iPad and Chromebook Pixel but it's certainly not ugly. The RT Metro interface itself throws plenty of colour around, and video plays back with accurate colours. There's enough power for the XPS 10 to tackle even 1080p/50fps video files – the onboard video app will drop frames with demanding files such as these, but it does a much better job of keeping pace with higher-spec video content than other mid-range rivals, and gets on with 720p content just fine.
Touchscreen performance
On the Metro side of Windows 8 RT, things runs smoothly here but as we've found with other Windows 8 devices, there are numerous little delays and blank screens to be endured, with poor signposting around the OS. Still, those are generally teething problems that fade away once you get used to it, and when you're in a Metro app, performance is rarely a problem.
Windows 8 app store
At the moment the Windows 8 app store is mostly populated with smaller apps rather than rivals to big productivity or creative apps, but it's still feasible to use the XPS 10 for basic image editing, for example.
As a mobile blogger's tool the XPS 10 is a much more flexible solution than a Chromebook, thanks to its ability to work perfectly well online or offline, and within that tablet/laptop middle ground it also beats Android hybrids for more serious, everyday jobs.

Welcome to the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. We are an academic medical institution dedicated to providing superior education and training in order to produce highly qualified, caring physicians to serve the people of Kentucky and the nation.
One of six colleges comprising the UK Medical Center (Dentistry, Health Sciences, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Public Health), the College of Medicine is located on UK's main campus in scenic Lexington, Ky. Take a virtual tour of our Medical Campus.
Academic Mission
UK's Kentucky Medical Curriculum, a national model, relates scientific principles and concepts to the prevention of disease and to the delivery of modern, compassionate medical care. Because students with diverse backgrounds and interests pursue a variety of medical careers, the curriculum provides the knowledge and skills essential for further professional development. The Kentucky Medical Curriculum emphasizes early longitudinal clinical experiences, integration of the basic and clinical sciences, teaching in ambulatory clinic settings and primary care. UK's curriculum uses many learning methods, including standardized patients, clinical training models, computer-assisted instruction, human-patient simulators, problem-based learning, small-group tutorials, interactive lectures and laboratory exercises.
Setting its sights even higher, UK is currently embarking upon an endeavor to further enhance its medical curriculum. Realizing that medical students rotate in and out of clinical experiences, UK recognizes that students often see glimpses or"snapshots" of chronic illness and do not witness how it affects the patient and his or her family. UK groups rotations to provide the opportunity for students to follow a patient's care over a 16-week period.
We take great pride in having more than 800 full-time basic science and clinical faculty members who are accessible to students for questions and consultations.
Student Enrollment Profile
As of August 2011, the total enrollment in the College of Medicine is 465 students. About 80 percent of the medical students enrolled each year are Kentucky residents. Highly qualified non-residents may be accepted into each entering class. UK recruits high-caliber students from across the Commonwealth, nation and world.

try new MDK3 v4 with MAC Filtering Bruteforce mode
MDK3 and Airpwn arn't playing well with this chip, which is odd considering it worked fine in the BT3 Beta...MDK3 will not inject on this chip, and Airpwn won't hear any packets...I know airpwn is touchy, but I wish MDK3 would work...
Is this a common problem? Is there a known solution?
try new MDK3 v4 with MAC Filtering Bruteforce mode
According to kismet running on the other interface, it won't inject packets...I only tested this with a AP Beacon flood, but even so, I would think that MDK3 would use the same method to inject for all attack methods...I tried only hooking the USB Interface in after boot, but that still wont work. My first thought was that a botched driver update screwed the chipset, but if I'm the only one having issues, maybe it was a bad dl? It matched the MD5 sum, though. I'll try the new version of MDK3, and see if that helps..
