This is important, since to the active Counter-Strike community the professional scene embodies the competitive aspect of the game in a way the monetary interests of developers and the easily-appeased masses can't. While the developers and player base can change or play the game without a competitive dimension in mind, the possibility of professional players fixing matches indicated the intrusion of frivolous aspects into the complex mechanics that made CS:GO an interesting eSport in the first place. There is a "competitive spirit" that eSports shares with sports. The comparison can be justifiably made, since CS:GO itself has the same depth and complexity as any sport. At the top level of play it requires the same conceptual tools and time dedication to improve, as well as an extremely high skill ceiling.A very small percentage of players ever get lucky enough to earn back their investment.

And the nature of game development, as Gaslamp Games' programmer Nicholas Vining pointed out, is "as soon as you get a game running at 60 FPS, your designers and artists will immediately knock it back down to 30 FPS."Valve is known for taking its time on projects. The "Steam Machine" was announced a couple of years ago as a joint hardware-software PC solution for living room set-top gaming with, perhaps more interestingly, promised inclusion of a haptic-enabled Steam controller.

Hi there! My name is Michael, located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago.
A little about me:
I grew up in Bloomingdale, graduated from Lake Park High School in Roselle, and returned to Itasca in 2001 to be closer to family. I married my high school sweetheart about 18 years ago and now have two daughters (7th grade and 4th grade) and our two-year-old Golden Retriever puppy, Peaches.
A little about my experience:
Learning is truly my passion. I tutored advanced math through college, went on to graduate school to learn more about how people learn, and have been in the education and training field for over 15 years. I joined WyzAnt about two years ago, and in that time, I've had the good fortune of working with dozens of students, becoming one of the most active tutors around Chicago. I've tutored everything from pre-algebra through second-semester calculus, from the ACT to the SAT, and from 7th-graders to adults...with positive feedback so far!
A little about my approach:
For me, it's all about helping students figure out whatever is challenging them, and seeing their joy and confidence grow as concepts start to click. As a tutor, my job is to create an opportunity for students to learn...to guide them. I can't learn it for them, but I can ask the right questions, pick the right examples, and offer the right hints to help them unlock their potential. Learning is personal, so my goal is to connect with each and every student in whatever way is most helpful to them.
I look forward to working with you and your children! Hi there! My name is Michael, located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago.

Michael was able to teach me algebra like I have never been taught before. I've struggled with math for a very long time and put off tutoring as long as possible. Michael is extremely patient and very outgoing. My only regret is that I didn't go to Michael for help at the beginning of the semester. Because of the tutoring I was able to pass my final exam and get a grade that I never imagined possible in the course. I recommend anybody who is struggling with math to get help from Michael!
He was very accommodating and knowledgable about the information. He explained things very well and was a fun tutor to have!! Highly recommend him to any math student!
Michael is always looking out in the best interest of the student.
He is very thorough and communicates well.
My daughter wanted help raising her ACT score. After a couple of sessions, Michael was able to figure out how she learned and processed information and gave her the strategy for approaching each section. My daughter does not like taking tests, but Michael is very perceptive and patient. He equipped my daughter with a toolbox, providing her with an arsenal of tools so that she would feel more comfortable and confident taking the test. We highly recommend him as a tutor!
My daughter needed help to prepare for her high school Geometry final. She is confident that she would have received a C if she didn't get the help she needed from Michael. She received an A! I highly recommend him!
Michael worked with my daughter to make up pre-Calc work and prepare for several exams. He was flexible with scheduling and was patient on the harder topics to be covered. She received all "A"'on her exams! Great tutor!
We reviewed statistical concepts of Correlational coefficients, r, r2, least squares regression and residuals. In one hour we moved right along. Professional and direct.
My daughter is 16 and has asked to come back to Michael 3 times already. She was struggling a bit with her test taking and he has definitely helped strengthen her abilities and provided a better understanding of the material she is currently learning. Would highly recommend!
I have smart-kid syndrome. And if you're on this site, you probably do, as well, or your child does.
I'm used to just getting a subject without too much studying. It has just always been that way for me. So when I couldn't understand Calculus on an AP level, I ignored it until I had left than four weeks left until the AP exam with less than half the knowledge I should have had at that point.
I went to Michael because I needed help. But what I didn't know was that he would also give me a reality-check that, yes, I had been ignoring the elephant in the room and refusing to acknowledge the fact that I did not understand the material and was rusty on my pre-calculus materials, which were essential to understanding calculus.
I had given up on myself; I had been resigned to just getting a 2 on the AP and calling it a day - but Michael was not.
He pulled me back to my feet and forced me to not give up on myself. I am not being melodramatic nor am I giving false advertisement.
Michael made me acknowledge that, yes, I sucked (my words) at math, especially calculus (again, my words), but I could dig myself out of the hole I had made a trench of.
He didn't give up on me. So I refused to give up on myself.
If you're like me, a desperate student who never had to study before to understand a subject, and you're resigned to a low grade, then talk to Michael. Have a lesson with him.
In two hours, he pushed me back to my feet.
If you need help - and someone who is willing to put in the time and effort to aid you - then just set up a lesson with Michael. I swear to God that you won't regret it.
Helped my son regain his confidence in the subject matter. Firm, definitive evaluation of my sons current standing and a solid plan to bring him up to speed. Very kid friendly and not intimidating for my son. Awesome experience
He has helped me in my Calculus 2 class and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a math tutor.
Michael helped my daughter regain her confidence in Pre Calc when reviewing for a test. He was accommodating with short notice to fit her into his schedule. We will be contacting Michael for future needs as necessary.
Very knowledgeable with laid back attitude and upbeat personality. Michael helped my daughter catch up on weeks of math in a night!
Michael W. has helped me understand AP Calculus so much more. He explains everything in detail and makes everything seem so logical and simple. Highly recommend!
Micheal has been student's primary math teacher for the last few months. Easy and enjoyable to work with, and very flexible.
In a time crunch to find a Calculus tutor, Michael quickly responded to my request. We set up a Skype session that worked wonderfully, so distance was a non issue. No drive time..Nice. My daughter felt much more confident going into her exam. Michael was a great communicator setting up the session, during, and checking up with us afterwards. We look forward to using him again and a better calculus grade.
Michael is an excellent math tutor. He is knowledgeable and will keep working on the material until the student completely understand it.
Michael helped me see that Calculus is not that hard. There is a process to follow to determine which formula to use. I could always do the math portion, I just had a hard time setting up the problem.
Michael is very knowledgeable and patient. The only reason I gave four stars instead of five was because we were having connectivity issues detracted from the overall experience. Michael was kind enough to credit me 15 min because of these issues so all in all, a great first experience.
Michael was great! If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. He broke the concepts down very well for me and was very kind and understanding. Anyone having trouble with math please check him out!!!!
We just had our first ACT tutoring session with Michael. He took the time to understand which area my daughter really struggles and laid out a plan to help her achieve her goal. His assessment and feedback are spot on. My daughter is impressed and looks forward to working with Michael.
I am a college student enrolled in a Calculus II class and I was struggling. I was falling further and further behind in class until I scheduled sessions with Michael. He walked me through the basic concepts of Calculus that I have forgotten about and helped 'strengthen' my core understanding. Now I feel more confident when taking quizzes and tests. It's good to know that if I feel lost in Calc., Michael is there to help me find my way. Worth the price.
Michael had been a life saver for my son. He knows how to meet the student where they are and teach them the concept they are struggling with. We will be working with Micheal on a regular basis in order to help our son, to not only, pass his class but hopefully with a decent grade. If anyone can make that happen it will be Micheal.
Thanks for looking over my homework and discovering the gaps in my understanding - I can't tell you what I don't know but you can see it. Our cooperative effort helps me articulate what I need, and helps you prepare a lesson which makes efficient use of our time. You allowed me to pause a moment and restate in my own words what I understood. Then, you either validated or refined it which drove the point home. That was helpful too!
I bravely took a 5 week undergrad online statistics course. I was in way over my head by week 3. I heard about WyzAnt from a friend and selected Michael as my tutor based on his credentials and mannerisms. I was skeptical because we were meeting online and unsure of how effective not meeting in person would be. Michael taught me my entire statistics book in 2 weeks, 16 committed hours, I went from failing to comprehension, got an A in the class and a 99.38 % on my comprehensive final exam. This tutor adapts to your learning style, has a flexible and late night schedule, and is brilliant. I would highly recommend this tutor to anyone taking statistics.
Perfect fit for my daughter's need. Very patient, organize, clear in explanation of the subject. He knows what to teach and how to teach.
Michael was patient and could explain things in a way that is understandable. I have dyslexia and the teacher was incredibly hard to understand. Michael made it easy.
We worked through some high-level probability topics. He was able to quickly understand where the teacher was headed and give me the background needed to feel comfortable with the approach. I am grateful he is there!
Michael does a great job of asking questions to challenge the student, so that they can think through a problem to find the right answer.
Questions on mathxl i was able to complete with a b in both i felt confident after our session and would have him help me again
Michael is a very gifted, intuitive, and adaptable teacher. My daughter has some health and attention issues and test anxiety. He really got to know her and how she thinks and then identified her stumbling blocks. He used humor and pragmatism to get her engaged. This guy understands teenagers! Her sample test scores jumped more than 10 points! Waiting for actual test results but her confidence is sky high!
Michael has taught my daughter ways to be more effective on the test. instead of working faster he wants her to work smarter taking her time on certain passages and get her point, which will help her increase her ACT score. His suggestions make sense and we haven't heard these from other tutors, so we are excited to see the results from her test coming up this Saturday.
I enjoy spending time with him on the Math and Science sections of the ACT. Not only does he provide helpful tips and brief lessons here and there, but also he is patient whenever I stop and think about a solution to a problem. I believe that he is the kind of tutor that could truly prepare a student for the ACT.
Michael has worked well with my son. Punctual, professional and knowledgeable. He tries very hard to be accommodating even with a full schedule. Appreciate all his help with our son.
My daughter Katherine thought Michael was excellent!! He was patient and understanding of where she needed work and areas she was fine. Michael also took the time to let me know (her father), that Katherine actually knows most of the subject, it is mainly a confidence issue with Katherine just having to believe that what she knows is correct. As a father I truly appreciated Michael's insight in regards to what my daughter needs and the help he will assist her with to get her there. Thank you.
Michael was a great tutor. He was reliable and committed to the task. He was good at identifying my son's problems with taking the ACT and gave him some great test taking strategies. I asked Michael to focus on my son's worst subject area, math, and his score improved by 8 points. His overall score went up 4 points. I highly recommend Michael for ACT tutoring.
My son needed to prepare for the ACT compass test in math. He had a lot of catching up with a limited amount of time! Michael was very patient and worked with Nicolas in a way he would understand the material. Test day came and the results were amazing! Highly recommend Michael's tutoring services!
Michael met with my son almost immediately, addressing the urgency concerns.
My son was very pleased with his first session, and feels very confident that with more help, he will be able to not only pass his course, but be able to get a decent grade!
Michael was very easy to reach, and corresponded both by phone and email very quickly.
I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Michael is a great tutor. He knows how to approach the areas you are looking to improve. He had given good tips. My daughter was going over her ACT test booklet and she would look at the questions and miss things that would be helpful. Michael was great at pointing out things for her to look at to make it easier and would
make it faster. He gave time for my daughter to answer, but would ask questions to have her mind work in the right direction for her to be able to work out the problem. The first lesson went great and the plan for the future lessons I believe will help my daughter improve on her ACT score, but also school in general.
In all honesty Michael should teach HS teachers how to interact with students. Now he is most likely wonderful with all students, but when we contacted him we had a stubborn teen (most can be) who was sure she didn't need help. Her grades indicated differently. She has gone from reluctantly working with him to looking forward to his sessions. In addition she has taught her friends a few things Michael has shown her- and viola they "get it". She has gone from I hate geometry to I still hate geometry but I understand it now. As parents her grade is reflecting that statement so we are pleased.
Many many people can tutor, but it takes a unique individual who can actually teach. To do that you have to know what your students strengths and weaknesses are. Build up the weakness and remind of the strength. Then challenge them to rectify that weakness until it is close to a strength - that is Michael's gift. Couldn't ask for more 5 plus star instructor.
Thanks Michael, as always very thorough and patient with my daughter. She has made incredible progress. He keeps her focused and on task, which is not an easy task at times.
Michael just tutored my son this past week. My son wanted to quit his honors class before the meeting, but now he has more confidence and feels he can continue in his honors class. Thank you Michael!
Michael is a tremendous help with my son's Pre-Calculus class in High School. Michael quickly determines deficiencies the student has and efficiently fills in the gaps. Michael has great rapport with my son. He is generous with his time and knowledge.
Michael exhibits great patience when waiting for a response to a question. He gives clues but does not give answers and I like that very much. Thank you so much - she is doing better with her geometry.
Michael is fantastic. My freshman daughter had been reduced to tears more than once by her honors geometry assignments, but Michael showed her better ways of thinking that have helped her dramatically within the first week!
Michael was an excellent tutor. He went over all the concepts thoroughly and in depth. We added extra sessions than originally planned just to make sure I was well prepared to CLEP out of college math. I would definitely recommend this very knowledgeable tutor!
I was taking a calculus one class at Harper this summer. I was barely passing and had very little understanding in calculus. Michael, with 2 weeks before the class ended, guided me in layman's terms to understand the concepts thoroughly. If I had started tutoring earlier I am confident my grade would have been higher. What he did in essence was teach me an entire class in a few tutoring sessions without overwhelming me. He saved me from another semester of calculus at my university and more importantly, time and money. I highly recommend Michael for anyone who struggles with math. Michael, thank you again!
I had Michael W. as a tutor to help me with a 500-level statistics class for graduate school. He is a fantastic tutor and was extremely helpful. He always showed up exactly on time for scheduled visits. He is very enthusiastic and motivated to help the student work through the arithmetic problem, step by step and even double-checks his own solutions, before having the student work on it. For anyone in Itasca, Wood Dale, Bensenville, Addison, Roselle, Bloomingdale, or any other towns nearby - I highly recommend Michael as a tutor. You will not be disappointed.
My daughter had taken an online college algebra class over this summer. She struggled from the beginning but kept on trying till she realized she was not going to pass that class. I searched on WyzAnt and was contacted by Michael almost immediately. And in a very short time, Michael helped my daughter pass that math class! Just after the first lesson she commented that Michael is a great teacher! He teaches very well. I would highly recommend Michael to any one struggling with algebra!! Thank you.
Michael tutored me through algebra, geometry, statistics, and probability as I was preparing to retake the math portion of the Test of Academic Proficiency (TAP). I found Michael to be an enthusiastic and knowledgeable tutor. He was very patient in his explanation of complicated procedures; he walked me through how to do each kind of problem and covered each detail in great aspects. Under Michael's teaching, I passed the TAP math exam. Most importantly, he gave me confidence in my own abilities. I highly recommend Michael to everyone who struggles to pass the math exam and wishes to improve their math skills
My daughter struggled in her math class most of the school year, but with Michael's help she was able to raise her grade in the class by one letter grade with only a few sessions. In my daughter's words "Michael was such a huge help. Not only is he very intelligent, but he is a phenomenal teacher. He was very patient and let me make my own mistakes before pointing them out, so that I could see what I was doing wrong and how I should have gone about solving the problem. He was very good at getting to the root of the mistakes I was making in order to help me fix them. Along with very helpful math advice, he gave me personal advice to help improve my scores like waking up earlier or focusing on one thing at a time to avoid mistakes. Overall, he was very helpful in aiding me in understanding the material and he went above and beyond to help me learn."
Michael is an outstanding tutor. After struggling with geometry for most of sophomore year, my daughter received her first A on a geometry quiz after only one session with Michael! He is able to explain things in a way that she could easily understand and grasp. More importantly, Michael was able to help her gain her confidence back. I am extremely happy with the progress my daughter is making in geometry with Michael's help.
The complete package. Michael represents a light at the end of the tunnel for our son who has struggled with mathematics his entire life. After meeting with Michael, our son felt optimistic about his prospects in Algebra/Trig for the first time ever. While he has worked with other tutors before, he didn't feel confident enough to let them know that he remained largely clueless, and he feared appearing "dumb" in front of the them. After meeting with Michael for the first time, he smiled and told us that he was grateful and optimistic about his chances in math in the future. He felt that Michael was very disarming and patient, two qualities that he both wants and needs in a tutor. We are thankful that Michael responded to our search for a tutor and look forward to a positive outcome.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I have recently worked with a dozen ACT English students, from students in the teens wanting to get a score in the 20's, up to students who are already in the high 20's looking for even more. Using the strategies we discuss and with consistent practice, I've had students approach ACT English with new ways of thinking, and positive results to show for it.
Over the past two years alone, I have worked with dozens of ACT Math students with a wide range of goals, both one-on-one and in classroom settings. With targeted and consistent effort, I've had students approach ACT Math with greater confidence and ability, with significant score improvements to match.
I have worked with a dozen ACT Reading students, from students with a 19 look for a 23, up to students in the high 20's looking for more. With the variety of students I have helped and with my background in learning theory, I am able to bring personalized and unique strategies to every situation.
In the last two years, I have worked with dozens of ACT Science students, in classrooms and in one-on-one sessions. (I even make sure to take their practice tests along the way, practicing what I preach and making sure that I'm staying sharp!) Because ACT Science is more about analysis than the underlying science principles, my focus is on the format of the test and the particular approaches that work best for each individual student...with positive results and feedback so far!
In the past few years alone, I've worked with over a dozen students taking Algebra 1, including high school and college-level courses. More often, though, I'm reviewing the foundations of Algebra with my ACT and SAT students, so I leverage that perspective to help my younger students build specifically for what they'll need down the road.
Over the past two years, I have spent over 300 hours tutoring students in Algebra 2; there's no problem that I either haven't seen or can't work with your student to figure out! Beyond the pure math, Algebra 2 is featured on the ACT and SAT, where I've worked with dozens more students specifically in test prep.
In the last two years alone, I've worked with dozens of calculus students, from AP Calc AB to college-level business calculus, from students looking for a 5 on the Calc BC test to college students at risk of failing. (And yes, I did get a 5 on the BC test and then took multiple years of college-level math as an engineering major.) The results and feedback have been positive so far!
I was a student of standardized tests, achieving the highest possible score on the math section of the ACT and SAT, as well as high scores on the equivalent sections of the GRE (for graduate school acceptance). As an undergraduate engineering student, I continued to apply advanced math and logic concepts, and am an avid puzzle-solver to this day. Finally, I have passed the WyzAnt tests for all of the math topics that are included on the math section of the GED, so there is no question that I won't at least be able to try to answer! :)
For many of my young teens battling geometry, an hour a week of tutoring is a break from the insanity, an opportunity to get a fresh perspective on whatever problems are challenging them...and heck, even a chance to laugh along the way as we improve their skills or their grade. Having helped dozens of students in geometry over hundreds of hours, I'll bring unique experience and perspective to any problem your student is facing.
My GRE expertise is specifically on the Quantitative side. I tutor all of the separate math subjects that are covered, and as a 99th percentile scorer on the GRE, ACT, and SAT, I have the problem-solving experience to help you come up with efficient and effective ways of approaching any question that they can throw at you.
I was an advanced math student, completing the equivalent of pre-algebra in 6th grade. I continued applying algebraic skills in high school, where I was a straight A student and completed Calculus as a junior. I tutored math through college to stay fresh. Finally, I have been using algebra ever since, from teaching college-level physics concepts to building courses for professional auditors.
I've recently worked with a few dozen precalculus students, from the basics in high school to the advanced materials sometimes covered in college. The more advanced the math gets, the less real it can seem...so my goal with precalc is to keep it as real as possible and be honest about what will be useful to them and what won't. With an advanced math background and undergraduate degrees in engineering, I have the perspective to help my calculus-bound students build the right foundation...and the sense of humor to keep it fun along the way.
I was an advanced math student, completing probability as part of my high school curriculum and then taking advanced statistics in college. As a tutor, I have helped numerous students with concepts related to probability, as part of advanced algebra courses and in preparation for taking the math portion of the ACT.
I have worked with a handful of SAT Math students (including work on the Math subject test), and I've had students approach SAT Math with greater confidence and ability. I am a student of standardized tests, with an 800 on the math section of the old SAT.
Over the past few years, I have worked with a wide range of statistics students...from high-schoolers in AP stats to college students filling a math requirement, from local to online. My statistics experience comes from my graduate work, which required that I learn how to communicate and interpret statistics to support my own research results! Statistics has real-world applicability that many of my students can relate to, so my goal is connect my students' intuitions about statistics with the formal math that they need to succeed in their courses.
As a math tutor, I am qualified in ACT Math, SAT Math, and all of the relevant subjects covered by those two tests (from pre-algebra through trigonometry). My math skills come from my background in engineering, which took me through advanced courses in college, where I tutored calculus. Going even further back, I was a student of standardized tests, where I achieved high scores on both the ACT Math and SAT Math tests (and then on the GRE when I went on to grad school).
In the last two years, I've worked with students from algebra 2 to calculus, covering trigonometry along the way. Plus, I have helped dozens of students prepare for the ACT and SAT, which both include trigonometry. I can help students sort through what they need and when they'll need it, keeping it practical...and even a little fun.

The Linux Socket Filter: Sniffing Bytes over the Network
Sniffing packets over your LAN is an invaluable tool for debugging network problems or collecting measurements. Sometimes the commonly available tools, such as tcpdump or ethereal, will not exactly fit your needs and writing your own sniffer can be of great help. Thanks to the LPF, you can do this in a simple and efficient way.

only sniff or discard too
nice article. i like the simplicity of it. However, I am wondering whether this technique can be used to create firewalls ? can i discard packets based on the criteria that I choose. Libpcap won't help because it creates a copy of the packet so the packet does reach where it is intended.
In both listing1 and
In both listing1 and listing2 when i run them i only see "reply" packets, the "request" packets are ignored..
for example:
i run in a console:
zxc@zxc-l:~$ ping -c1 192.168.1.1
while in another was running:
zxc@zxc-l:~$ sudo ./listing2 (or listing1 it's the same output)
98 bytes read
Source MAC address: 00:af:bc:xx:xx:xx
Destination MAC address: 00:1a:2b:xx:xx:xx
Source host 192.168.1.1
Dest host 192.168.1.213
Source,Dest ports 0,10327
Layer-4 protocol 1
However if i do the same with tcpdump, i get this:
zxc@zxc-l:~$ sudo tcpdump -i eth1 -ntUl
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth1, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes
IP 192.168.1.213 > 192.168.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 44322, seq 1, length 64
IP 192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.213: ICMP echo reply, id 44322, seq 1, length 64
In one word, with your examples i can only see reply packets, in fact always my output is:
Dest host 192.168.1.213 (my computers ip).
So my question is, if there is a way to "sniff" both reply packets and also request packets over the network...
Hoping to receive answer...
Thank you very much....
Hi Gianluca
Excelent article!. I'm writting from Venezuela, and I wanted to know how do I sniff packets without using the PF_PACKET family. I ask you this because I need to do that without root permissions. Thanks
Great work !
Really great tutorial !
I also found video tutorials on sniffing at www.security-freak.net . started by a Vivek Ramachandran, they are quite elaborate in coverage and literally spoon feed topics like sniffing, packet injection etc.
Might help ...take a look !
Some changed in list of include files
Without changes for last C programm compillator gives
warning: implicit declaration of function 'htons'
If this code changed for C++ programm
(replace exit(X) on return X ) the compiller giver error:
'htons' was not declared in this scope
So to improve code include files list might be as follow:
// add this header
// changed #include on
some problem with formating
#include < stdio.h >
#include < string.h >
#include < errno.h >
#include < unistd.h >
// add this header
#include < asm/types.h >
#include < sys/socket.h >
#include < sys/types.h >
#include < netinet/in.h >
// changed #include < linux/in.h > on
#include < netinet/in.h >
#include < linux/if_ether.h >
#include < net/if.h >
#include < linux/filter.h >
#include < sys/ioctl.h >
Setting promiscuous mode
Great article!
I'd just like to point out that you should not use ioctl() for setting the promiscuous mode. If you do, you're responsible for disabling the promiscuous mode after you're done. Unfortunately, you have no way of knowing if another socket also requested the promiscuous mode while your code was running. Thus, resetting the Ethernet flags to the original value could mess things up.
Instead, you should use setsockopt() with SOL_PACKET, PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and have PACKET_MR_PROMISC as the argument. This way the kernel will track the promiscuous mode usage and turn it off automatically.
Thanks for the simple way of explanation
Your article made concept so simple. Thanks
your document "sniffing bytes over network" is very nice, you have written very clearly so, that we can uderstand. i am a student of master in networking, doing project on filters.
thanking you for your good, nice,and easy to understand document

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

As always the service and food was outstanding. Jaques took care of us and is as mug of a gentleman as any human I have met. Everything from A to Z was flawless including a birthday card from the staff and decorations on the table for my fathers birthday. This restaurant is the top notch as far as dining and only gets better. Thanks much!!!!!

The plates were WAAAAAYYYYYY over priced for the value that they delivered. The food wasn't bad, but not stellar. There are much better steak houses in the Boston area. The only way I'll ever go back to Capital Grille is if it's paid for by someone else.

We love dining at capital grill, regardless of location. Aside from the great food, service is always impeccable. Need to mention out server Bao--- we've had him at two different occasions and both times he has been friendly, fun and always on point. We will be back to the Chesnut Hill location and WILL request to be seated at Bao's table.

We were celebrating the one year anniversary of a new employee and he thoroughly enjoyed his evening from having gold "celebration" decals spread across the table to a DELICIOUS meal and the ending couldn't be better with the dessert sampler with the word "celebration" written out in chocolate! With a night like this he'll never want to leave us!

Filet, asparagus, calamari, brussel sprouts and potatoes were top notch as always.
I do not recommend the tuna tartar with avocado appetizer . Very veiny and freshness was questionable, the tuna tartar at Abe and Louie's is much better.

The Chestnut Hill Capital Grille is our choice for special occasions. This time we celebrated Father's Day there. Although there was some confusion about whether we could be seated when we arrived, and another, more well known customer, was hastily seated first, we happily solved the situation by having a drink at the bar. Bartender was very friendly and very good! Steaks were perfectly cooked as usual (Filet Mignon and Porterhouse among our choices). Sides were delicious, although we would love it if they added broccoli. Excellent wine list and dessert menu (berries for our daughter, dense chocolate dessert for our son).

Sadly feel the place is overrated and overpriced. Food quality was average only 1 steak out of 3 was good. The truffle fries were frozen fries, mediocre Caesar salad, nice tomato avocado salad, breads were good but old tasting scalloped potatoes. What saved the night was our lovely waitress Judy and her attentive and personable service.

Only one out of the four steak dishes was what it should be. The tuna and halibut were tasteless and dry I would even say awful. I have been here before but will not return. Very disappointing. There are many better places to go. Our server was good and the celebration acknowledgement very nice but did not make up for food quality.
Quality special occasion top notch
Thankfully I mentioned that we were here for our wedding anniversary. Every single staff member who came to our table said something to us . Made the occasion even more special. The food of course was exceptional - and the gift dessert was an even more special touch, but the thing we'll remember most was the service from the time we arrived to the time we walked out the door. Top class all the way. It's the reason people should get out to a restaurant. Yeah, we paid for it via the prices, but we won't remember the bill....

Our meals were delicious, and the service was impeccable. Our server, Jill Cohen was absolutely terrific. She was attentive and seemed to anticipate all of our needs. She made a great experience even more special. Unfortunately, our experience with the hostesses was not positive at all as they were preoccupied and even rude. However, Jill and the delicious food saved the day!

After being seated , we waited for a longer than reasonable time to be recognized by a waiter.
Salads were excellent . Main course not so great. Chicken was dry and tasteless and the stake was somewhat dry and over cooked.
For the cost , service and meal , I would go back to the Wildwood Steak House in Marlboro. They have you beat in all the above categories.

No matter what you're looking for; a relaxing hill-top stay, a peaceful yoga retreat, or simply a break from "downtown" Montezuma, this is your place. Staying here felt like a dream. The owners and staff should pride themselves on maintaining an oasis of tranquility - yet it didn't feel too quiet or impersonal. It was easy to get to know other guests because the very tastefully decorated common areas lent themselves to great conversation and pool-side chatting, if that's what you're interested in. Otherwise, you can lounge on your beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean, swing in your hammock and read. I will definitely go back to Anamaya, hopefully for a much longer stay. I am a world-traveller in her 30s and have seen many a beautiful resort, this is definitely in the top 3.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Anamaya is a luxury boutique hotel and yoga retreat center in the beautiful beach town of Montezuma, Costa Rica. We have the best view of any hotel in the area, and are right next door to famous Montezuma Falls, which is a 5 minute walk from our property.

I have a 1992 Volvo station wagon and the problem is that the 3rd gear always is engaged.
There's a button on the gearshift that when pushed disengages 3rd gear and goes into 4th. But the problem is even when I push the button in stays in 3rd gear. What is the problem?

Skip to comments.Lieberman: "Put the brakes" on new nuke plants
Posted on 03/13/2011 11:04:38 AM PDT by Nachum
In the aftermath of Japan's devastation, Conn. Sen. says it's time for temporary moratorium on building new nuclear plants
(CBS News)
Independent Sen. Joe Lieberman on Sunday called for a temporary moratorium on the construction of nuclear power plants in the U.S. in the aftermath of Japan's devastating earthquake and tsunami, which damaged two reactors at a nuclear facility in the country's northeast.
"The reality is that we're watching something unfold," he said in an interview for CBS' "Face the Nation." "We don't know where it's going with regard to the nuclear power plants in Japan right now. I think it calls on us here in the U.S. - naturally not to stop building nuclear power plants, but to put the brakes on right now until we understand the ramifications of what's happened in Japan."
Japan, which was ravaged by an 8.9 magnitude earthquake and subsequent tsunami last week, is now struggling with a growing nuclear crisis as a partial meltdown is already likely under way at one nuclear reactor, and operators are frantically trying to prevent the disaster from growing worse.
(Excerpt) Read more at cbsnews.com ...
None dare call it treason
Chicken Little Ping.
Oh, shut up you old ignoramus
Knee Jerk!
Maybe to Kalifornia (but they have windmills, Ha ha) I don't expect major quakes in the rest of the lower 48 states.
Show us your degree in nuclear physics, Mr. Lieberman, or your Navy nuc certification. Or shut the hell up.
That was predictable, sadly
Ya know.....if the pols could relate how IRAN could DESTROY parts or all of America with NUKEs....maybe, just maybe, I'd have some respect.....The Japan problem is near NOTHING...considering what they've been through....but, I'm more worried about rogue nations and THEIR NUKES....not power plants attacking us.
Americans are going to have to learn how to "man up" again and find the courage to say NO to its public servants.
Stuff it John.
Coal plants are already being shut down and new ones aren't being built to replace them (with a few exceptions).
We can't just wait while our generating capacity is dwindling. Windmills and solar panels are not going to be able to make up the difference anytime soon.
Should we just sit around in the dark in our inoperable electric cars you "Washington twits" want us to drive?
Here's a clue, Joe:
A 9.0 earthquake followed by a 30 foot wall of water.
Thousands killed by collapsing structures, fire and flood, yet none as a result of a nuclear disaster.
Let's put the brakes on earthquakes and tsunami.
Natural gas...(pending)
Does he have any idea what a 9.0 earthquake feels like. The entire town is washed away with only the nuke plant remaining standing.
These plants were built for 8.5, people are scared of nukes due to horror films.
But you get 10k people die from a tsunami they won't stop building their houses right in a tsunami zone.
There you go!! I'll be happy to see him leave the senate next year . Especially after his leading DADT repeal. Good riddance loserman.
Up oil, gas and coal mining....And I have no problems doing away with nuclear.
Predictable. Are we drilling again in the Gulf yet?
It never takes liberals very long to turn to rule by fiat, does it.
That's what we get when we sanction politics as a life time career.
Next up a moratorium on all construction in earthquake zones, and near water.
NO, they already checked off Hydro-Power.
The Xlinton Administration greenies started a program of dismantling dams for the sake of the environment.
The days of the new big dam projects are over. The days of the existing dams are numbered although I can't see them dismantling the very biggest ones simply because they are so big.
No reports of Japanese zombies yet.
Amazing McLame's buddy Joey is fear mongering.
If it were't for the building standards in Japan, this story would be apocolyptic in nature.
Yeah Joe a 9.1 earthquake is going to cause damage.
You need to be praising the Japanese Engineers that are at the site fighting to stop a catastrophy. (bigger)
Since no new nuclear power plants have come online in the US since 1996, I'd say the brakes are already on.
Crazy, isn't it?
Next thing we will see is people will forget and start moving back into the New Orleans flood plain again and then beg for assistance when they get flooded out by another hurricane.
Just give them enough time and they will forget.
Was it the worst? I hadn't known that, thanks!!
Well we haven't built any new plants for least 30 years so I guess it isn't going to be a big deal.
The "brakes" on nuclear power plants have been on since the 1970's. According to ten seconds of googling, the last new nuke plant went online in 1996. How much slower does the senator want us to go?
That took longer than I thought!
Coal fired power plants are the worst polluters. Multiply the waste of one coal plant X the thousands now operating. Not to mention the coal slag piles.
"In fact, the fly ash emitted by a power planta by-product from burning coal for electricitycarries into the surrounding environment 100 times more radiation than a nuclear power plant producing the same amount of energy." Our source for this statistic is Dana Christensen, an associate lab director for energy and engineering at Oak Ridge National Laboratory as well as 1978 paper in Science authored by J.P. McBride and colleagues, also of ORNL.-from Scientific American Dec 13, 2007
Loserman keeps proving that he is an idiot and a card carrying Chicken Little member
I agree with Joe. Let's not build any new American nuclear plants in Japan. These stinking liberal jackasses won't be happy until we're all cooking rats over wood fires for food. We should cut off electricity and water to anyone that votes Democrat so they can experience the future they want for all of us.
Don't buy into the Green Energy is Our Future scam. The goal of the Leftists is to cripple our economy by reducing our consumption of energy in order to make way for their vision of a Socialist America. They are not interested in windmills and solar panels - they just want to eradicate Capitalism and the inherent freedom that it carries with it.
This was the goal of the Soviet Union. The Soviet union is gone but the Anti-Capitalist movement lives on in the hands of the Watermelon Greenies.

Dufus need to go!
There has, but that is a perfect example.
Under the "Something Bad Might Happen" Doctrine, we must depopulate the Ring of Fire and all coastal areas, including politicians' beach houses. We must create a world free of risk and potential danger immediately. Our comfort is at stake.
I knew this would come....Just like the explosion in the Gulf means we ought to live in Tee-Pees and not progress with evil oil!
Yes it was. It could be the end of nuclear power in America. Let's hope not, but you know how these scum bag liberals are.
the irony is that in Ct, is one of the largest nuclear sub bases in the world; in addition, Millstone I and II operate nearby, successfully.

How would I tell the difference between a new moratorium on building nuclear plants and what has been the status quo in this country for the past 30 years?
POS Lieberman. Liar, hypocrite, and traitor to his own heritage.
This man deserves nothing less than the business side of a working mans boot.
Three Mile Island happened two weeks after "The China Syndrome" was released. It's the entire reason that event was so blown out of proportion.
I'm so tired of the idiot masses and spineless, reactionary politicians acting like providing energy for billions of people must be without risk. We should be thanking the people who take those risks from the bottom of our hearts and congratulating them on a job well done. Damn ingrates.
never let a crisis go to waste
Ya know, man....I mean, this is like the dawn of the age of Aquarius, seriously, dude....I mean seriously.....

- "Applying a Social Media Rule to Innovation"
- Author: Jeffrey Phillips
- Date: June 24, 2010
- Source: Blogging Innovation
- URL: http://www.business-strategy-innovation.com/wordpress/2010/06/applying-a...
- Social Media & Innovation: Jeffrey Phillips identifies two types of communities in the world of social media – "broad and topical", like Twitter, and "deep and narrow," like forums. In the sites focused on topical interaction, thousands of participants exchange information that is neither very informative nor very deep, whereas smaller groups of people in a more narrowly-focused discussion generally provide very deep or information-rich resources. This polarization in social media, according to Phillips, aligns very well with all aspects of innovation, but with idea generation in particular. A small, diverse team of several people who are all well-prepared will produce the most radical innovation. As more participants are added, the ideas generated become more incremental rather than disruptive.
- "Microsoft and the Innovators Paradox"
- Author: Scott Anthony
- Date: June 24, 2010
- Source: Harvard Business Review (blog)
- URL: http://blogs.hbr.org/anthony/2010/06/microsoft_and_the_innovators_p.html
- Innovation: Microsoft's core business continues to grow, but the PC's dominance is being eroded by tablets and mobile devices, and Windows and Office are under threat from Google. Five, ten years ago, when these technologies were in their infancies, Microsoft was in an excellent position to invest. So why didn't it? The answer, according to Scott Anthony is what he calls the "Innovator's Paradox." In a nutshell, the period during which companies don't need to invest growth is the precise period during which they should invest in growth. To break the Innovator's Paradox, companies must do two things: 1) recognize the limitations of their core business; 2) consistently allocate resources to new growth efforts while avoiding excessive resource allocation.

- Leadership & Diversity: Rosetta Thurman points to the continued importance placed on diversity and inclusion in the for-profit sector and the seeming decline of leadership development programs for professionals of color in the nonprofit sector. As examples of this potential sector-wide trend, she names the Associated Grant Makers Diversity Fellowship, which AGM will be discontinuing after the current class of Fellows completes their term, and the Connecting Leaders Fellowship Program, for which the Association of Black Foundation Executives will not be conducting a class this year.

- Gender Equality: Michael Seltzer cites theWomen Deliver gathering in Washington, D.C., a three-day event on women's health, which featured over 800 presentations and speeches and had delegates from over 146 countries, as a signal that "the global women's health movement has arrived." As Seltzer points out, the disproportionate health risks faced by women, with pregnancy-related complications causing the death of a woman on the planet every minute of every day, must be addressed, as they are key to the health and prosperity of every nation.

LOS ANGELES—Palisades Mexico Partners has launched the Palisades Private Capital Fund I targeting foreign investors from Latin American countries. The fund in currently raising $50 million and plans to raise $100 million in commitments this year. The company is a joint venture between Palisades Capital Realty Advisors and Sergio Arguelles, president and CEO of the Mexican-based firm FINSA.
According to Joaquin de Monet, the founder and managing principal of Palisades Capital Realty Advisors, the fund aims to capitalize on the recent increase in liquidity in Mexico due to the formation of Mexican REIT FIBRA. "FIBRA has increased competition and compressed yields to a level that improves the attractiveness of US investments," de Monet tells GlobeSt.com. The ongoing conversation about foreign investors is usually focused on Asian investors, and European investors, to a lesser extent. However, Latin American investors are also seeking US real estate opportunities for "growth prospects in a developed economy, safety and a hedge against local currency."
The fund will target class-A and class-B office properties in emerging West Coast markets. "Where we see pricing inefficiencies and attractive yields we acquire class-A assets; otherwise we see a better value in class-B assets, especially suburban markets," de Monet explains, adding that their goal is to create a pool of quality assets in the $12 million to $21 million range with an age of six to 30 years and 75% occupancy. The fund has already targeted three institutional-quality assets in Texas, Arizona and Southern California. They plan to purchase these assets in the next month through the fund.
De Monet and Arguelles met in 1997 after de Monet led a $450 million acquisition of FINSA's portfolio. He retained Arguelles in the partnership. "He is a respected leader in Mexico and is solely focused on Industrial product, so US office did not create any conflicts to his investors and business in Mexico," says de Monet.
While focused on launching the fund, de Monet's Palisades Capital Realty Advisors is still busy growing its portfolio. The firm recently purchased two office properties in Portland, OR, totaling 127,000 square feet. The properties were purchased in partnership with two Silicon Valley investors.
