Physics Journals Online. Many of these may only be
accessible from a UBC computer as they are restricted to institutions
who already purchase institutional copies of the paper journal.
Scholar's Protal Access via UBC Library to journals
of Academic Press, Elsevier Science,
Kluwer Publishers, Springer-Verlag, and Wiley Publishing
Elsevier (can see lists
of all of their journals,
which for a price
can be obtained in an
electronic version, though
most are not on the
WorldWideWeb)
Springer-Verlag (many journals, including the

wgen source and binary A
cryptographic password generator for Linux-- generates "passwords" together
with an entropy estimate using /usr/share/dict/words ( or your choice -f)
from the quatrogram (four letter combinations) of the words in the
dictionary. The passwords are like, but usually not, english words ( or
whatever dictionary you use). To compile wgen, use -lm for the math
library.
Useage: wgen [-l #] [-n #] [-f {dictionary| - Email and Phone Directories
