Pass or fail: A new test for password legitimacy

Description: While other programs check for bad passwords after the fact, it in important to have good passwords at all times, not just after the latest Crack run. To this end we have modified Larry Wall's Perl password program and added, among other features, the ability to check a sorted list of all the bad passwords'' that Crack will generate, given all the dictionaries that we could get our hands on (107 MB of unique words, so far). The combination of improvements has turned publicly available code into… more

Ash cloud aviation advisories

Description: During the recent (12--22 June 1991) Mount Pinatubo volcano eruptions, the US Air Force Global Weather Central (AFGWC) requested assistance of the US Department of Energy`s Atmospheric Release Advisory Capability (ARAC) in creating volcanic ash cloud aviation advisories for the region of the Philippine Islands. Through application of its three-dimensional material transport and diffusion models using AFGWC meteorological analysis and forecast wind fields ARAC developed extensive analysis and 12… more

Near earth object fuels (neo-fuels): Discovery, prospecting and use

Description: The 1992 discovery of a water-ice, near-Earth object (NEO) in the space near Earth is evaluated as a source of rocket fuel and life support materials for Earth orbit use. Nuclear thermal rockets using steam propellant are evaluated and suggested. The space geological formation containing such water-rich NEO`s is described. An architecture couples near-Earth object fuels (neo-fuel) extraction with use in Earth orbits. Preliminary mass payback analyses show that space tanker systems fueled from s… more

To this end we have modified Larry Wall`s Perl password program and added, among other features, the ability to check a sorted list of all the ``bad passwords`` that Crack will generate, given all the dictionaries that we could get our hands on (107 MB of unique words, so far).
