Excitement grows daily as the 2013 National Heirloom Exposition draws closer to reality. A full year of planning to improve upon the immense success of the 2nd annual Expo in 2012 has resulted in the gathering of an even larger crowd of pure food enthusiasts, sustainable living proponents, anti-GMO activists, heritage animal lovers, environmentalists, organic farmers, and many more like-minded individuals and groups.
The 2013 National Heirloom Exposition is the event to attend on September 10, 11, and 12. Taking place at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa, California, hours are from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. all three days. Adult admission is only $10 per day or $25 for all 3 days. Kids 17 and under are free.
Renowned speakers from all around the country and the world will present on a wide variety of topics ranging from food and health issues to seed saving to protecting our future. Dr. Vandana Shiva of India spoke to a full house at the first National Exposition in 2011 and is returning this year to enlighten her listeners on the the importance of heirloom seeds and the dangers of seed patents. Patrick Holden of the United Kingdom is Chief Executive of the Sustainable Food Trust and aims to inspire global communities with sustainable ideas. Andrew Kimbrell is executive director of the Center for Food Safety and one of the country's leading environmental attorneys. Ronnie Cummins is Director of Organic Consumer Alliance. Jeffrey Smith is founder of the Institute for Responsible Technology. These presenters will join more than 100 other speakers bringing messages of environmental responsibility and sustainability.
The impressive exhibits alone are enough to warrant attendance. School groups, gardening groups, fruit growers, large farmers, small gardeners, and specialized growers will be creating displays of produce, flowers, gardening projects, and much more. Demeter's Biodynamic Garden and Lounge exhibit featuring an insectary-enhanced garden, an edible landscape garden, and an integrated livestock display will give visitors the opportunity to experience and learn about Biodynamic farming and gardening through their classes and panel discussions. Mac Condill of the Great Pumpkin Patch will again erect his magnificent squash tower that has been an awesome sight at the previous expos. These are just two of the extraordinary exhibits that leave visitors feeling inspired and energized. We encourage all gardeners to bring items to add to the giant heirloom produce exhibit.
The National Heirloom Exposition will offer entertainment, as well as inspiration. Music lovers will not want to miss the Musical Extravaganza that will feature Sourdough Slim, Fly by Night, Poor Old Shine, Petaluma Pete, and many others. Individual performers and groups will provide bluegrass, western, traditional swing, instrumentals, and much more.
Pure and healthy food will have a prominent place at the Expo. Many distinguished chefs from across the country will host food demonstrations and tastings, as well as remarkable food carvings and enthralling lectures on food. More than 30 food vendors will provide a memorable culinary experience as they offer a variety of meals and snacks that include whole grain, organic, local, fair trade, high-quality, gluten free, and nutritious food that is authentic to certain cultures.
Heritage animal fans and supporters will want to take in the livestock show conducted by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, American Poultry Association, and other heritage animal organizations. Children and adults may enter to win prizes. The outdoors Farmers Market will offer some of the finest and freshest in produce and plants.
While our halls are filling up with confirmed exhibitors and vendors, we can still make room for a few more if you contact us immediately. If you want to join us, please call Paul Wallace at 707-773-1336 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. For general information about the Expo, please visit http://www.theheirloomexpo.com/.

There are two typical situations: when someone asks for a permission or for a obligation. I am totally confused, because there seems to be two ways to ask and to reply, and I don't know which one is right.
Q1. Can I go play?
Q2. May I go play?
N1. No, you must not.
N2. No, you may not.
P1. Yes you can.
P2. Yes you may.
Q1. Do I have to go to school?
Q2. Must I go to school?
N1. No, you don't have to.
N2. (I guess there is no second possibility)
P1. Yes you have to.
P2. Yes you must.
Which one of the two forms is correct?

Quick Navigation:
RejuveneX® Factor Firming Serum is the latest update of the original RejuveneX® Factor formulation by Professor Carmen Fusco that launched the science-based skincare revolution in 1983. This formulation provides 10 new compounds (a total of 28 clinically validated active ingredients) in a nutrient-dense, deep-penetrating serum to promote the appearance of more youthful, firmer, healthier, and more vibrant skin. These 10 compounds include:
This serum is a more advanced, concentrated format … thinner than a cream to ensure superior, more direct absorption of these skin-enhancing compounds.
To get these 28 synergistic bioactives anywhere else, you'd need to layer on a dozen skin creams — each providing only 2 or 3 of these active ingredients — with some creams costing as much as $600! For a fraction of the cost, RejuveneX® Factor Firming Serum delivers optimal dosages of the full range of these clinically validated technologies.
RejuveneX® Factor Firming Serum comes in an airless pump to protect the integrity of the bioactives … and utilizes QuSome™, the patented deep-layer cellular delivery system that provides sustained release for 6 to 8 hours! This formulation is uniquely free of paraben, irritants, estrogenic chemicals, antioxidant-inhibitors, mineral oil, and synthetic fragrances.

To the Catholic Church in Ireland Elvis Presley once represented more than blue suede shoes. Could he, they wondered, be a front man for Satan?
One of the King's most famous hits was Devil In Disguise after all. And at one time there were many Catholic church leaders in Ireland who took him at his word, according to a new book.
The new biography, Elvis and Ireland, tells the story of the late American singer's rise from an impoverished rural background to international stardom — but this time from an Irish standpoint.
According to The Star, author Ivor Casey, 29, recalls how the one of a kind singer electrified the youth of Ireland after he burst on the scene in the mid-1950s. In fact his influence, along with later acts like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, was instrumental in turning Ireland into a more secular society, Casey contends.
But those Satanic swinging hips set off alarm bells among the Catholic Church's hierarchy, who feared they would lead men and women to ruin. One archbishop actually set up a secret committee of busybodies and snoops to spy on teenagers who dared to listen to rock 'n' roll music, Casey told the Star.
'Many priests howled their condemnations from the pulpit and criticized, in ferocious anger, their disgust with rock 'n' roll music,' Casey added.
'They roared that Elvis was slouched at the left hand of Satan with a distinctive plan for the corruption of the young people of Ireland.'
Elvis and Ireland, which Casey has published himself, is available on Amazon.com.

A San Francisco institution, Java Beach Café has been serving homemade & locally sourced eats for decades. All of our coffee is freshly roasted by our team in the San Francisco Bay Area & brought right to our cafés so that we can serve you the perfect cup every single morning.
We are located in the Outer Sunset, right across the Great Highway from Ocean Beach. We are easily accessible by car, public transit, or surfboard.

"Neighborhood people serving the community since 1993"
Java Beach started with one simple question: Why should neighbors have to take a road trip out of the neighborhood for a decent cup of coffee? The foundation of Java Beach has always been a commitment to serving superb coffee. All our coffee is locally roasted and it is all organic, sustainable and fair trade. We look forward to drinking our coffee everyday ourselves!
Forever a work in progress, Java Beach is the love and life work of Patrick and Buffy Maguire. Java Beach is more than a coffee shop; it is a second home to many and a friend's living room to others. Many relationships and marriages began at Java Beach and now the second generation of Java Beach customers are tall enough to order their own drinks and, sometimes, old enough to pay for them!
Java Beach has evolved over the years, but the spirit of hope and possibility that manifested itself on that fateful day in October remains with us and is part of the magic down here at the edge of the world where we perch on the Pacific Ocean.
In short, Java Beach was started with a briefcase of nothing but chutzpah and 22 years later it has become the embodiment of "be bold and great forces will come to your aid."
Live your dreams.

I am trying to talk myself into a used Leaf my local Nissan dealer brought in in northern NB. The nearest authorised dealer is 120km away in a different city but these guys say they wanted to try one out to see if there was interest. Despite the complete lack of any chargers around this city, I am interested, and I showed the car off to no less than a dozen interested people in the two days I had it.
The vehicle is a 2015 SV that came out of Quebec. My dealer, who does not sell Leafs (Leaves? ), has been incorrect about a number of things already (range is NOT 300Km...nor 200Km!) told me it was a demo from Ontario. The nav system shows it was driven by at least three people (all iphones) sharing one home address in the Montreal suburbs. Note to others: clear your nav system before selling...
At a little over 30k Kms I'm wondering about battery life. There were no bars missing when I had it out on test drive. It would trickle charge to 95%/154km range overnight. That 150km range translated to about 90km of mixed 50/50 90k/h highway, 50-60k/h city with 20-30km remaining on the GoM. I did not have a working LeafSpy OBD dongle to see actual SoC nor time to try hitting turtle mode.
That 90km with a big buffer is almost perfect for my trips to town from my rural home (30km to town limits...I've had a few hairy low fuel situations on that road in my ICE car). My concern is winter driving with heat, and/or the overall battery degradation as the miles go on. I'd hate to drop 25k on a car that can only be used during the summer. If, in 4 or 5 years, I could drop in a new 30kwh (or better) for 5-7k, I would do it, if the car was still in good shape. But not too soon.
I'm wondering about others' experiences with the Leaf and the inevitable battery degradation - but here in he Great White North. And I'm sorry, but you tropical lifers in BC needn't bother replying! I looking for opinions from the folks in the snowy east - as in east of the Rockies.
Does the cooler climate help us out versus the southerners (even the lizard batteries will suffer from heat, just not like the old days)? Do the cold winter trips really trim that much off the range, or is it manageable by being slightly MORE light footed? Do the cold winters help us fare better?

Public Enemy
- Chuck D
- Flavor Flav
- Professor Griff
- Terminator X
Music with a message.
Whether we're talking hip hop or politics, Public Enemy was revolutionary. Their blend of politics, philosophy and rap changed the game for the better.
"No one has been able to approach the political power that Public Enemy brought to hip-hop," Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys told Rolling Stone in 2004.
"I put them on a level with Bob Marley and a handful of other artists—the rare artist who can make great music and also deliver a message." Public Enemy brought an explosion of sonic invention, rhyming virtuosity and social awareness to hip-hop in the 1980s and 1990s. The group's high points—1988's It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back and 1990's Fear of a Black Planet, stand among the greatest politically charged albums of all time.
Public Enemy—Chuck D. (Carlton Ridenhour), Flavor Flav (William Drayton), Terminator X (Norman Lee Rogers) and Professor Griff (Richard Griffin)—came together in 1986 at Adelphi University on Long Island. Ridenhour was studying graphic design and working at the college's radio station, WBAU. He became friends with Hank Shocklee and Bill Stephney, and they would stay up late into the night, discussing politics, philosophy and hip-hop. Ridenhour rapped over a track that Shocklee created called "Public Enemy No.1." He then began appearing regularly on Stephney's radio show, calling himself Chuckie D.
Rick Rubin, of Def Jam Records, heard "Public Enemy No. 1" and contacted Ridenhour. Soon, the pair hatched an idea that involved Shocklee as producer, Stephney as a marketer and DJ Norman Rogers on turntables. They then added Richard Griffin to work with the backup dancers who were called the Security of the First World (S1W) and William Drayton to rap along with Ridenhour.
Calling themselves Public Enemy, the group released its first album, Yo! Bum Rush the Show, in 1987. The album garnered some positive reviews, but it was their second album, 1988's It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, that made Public Enemy a household name. The album reached Number Forty-Two on the pop chart and Number One on the R&B chart. The album, which included the singles "Don't Believe the Hype" and "Bring the Noise," was hailed as a hip-hop masterpiece and went on to sell more than a million copies. The Village Voice voted It Takes a Nation of Millions the best album of the year in the paper's Pazz and Jop Poll.
In 1989 the group recorded "Fight the Power," which was the theme song for Spike Lee's film Do the Right Thing (1989). The following year, Public Enemy returned with Fear of a Black Planet. The album became the group's first to reach the Top 10. Songs such as "Burn Hollywood Burn" and "911 Is a Joke" examined white racism, while "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" urged African-Americans to unite.
Chuck D—routinely rated as one of the greatest rappers of all time—pushed the art of the MC forward with his inimitable, rapid-fire baritone, as he connected the culture of hip-hop with Black Nationalism and the ideas of Malcolm X. His counterpart, Flavor Flav, brought humor (in the case of "911 Is a Joke," pointed humor) and a madcap energy to the songs. Along the way, they brought a new level of conceptual sophistication to the hip-hop album and a new level of intensity and power to live hip-hop, inspiring fans from Jay-Z to Rage Against the Machine.
Public Enemy's next album, 1991's Apocalypse 91…The Enemy Strikes Black, reached Number Four on the charts and included the hits "Can't Truss It" and "Shut Em Down." Another track, "I Don't Wanna be Called Yo Nigga," is about how the urban culture uses the n-word outside of its usual derogatory context. The album also included the song "By the Time I Get to Arizona." That song and its accompanying video dealt with the fact that some states did not recognize Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday as a national holiday. But perhaps most noteworthy is the fact that the album included a new version of "Bring the Noise," recorded with the thrash metal band Anthrax. Chuck D. said that upon the initial request of Anthrax, he "didn't take them wholehearted seriously," but after the collaboration was done, "it made too much sense." The collaboration between the two bands bridged the gap between heavy metal and hip-hop, and brought hip-hop to a much wider audience. The song, which also appeared on the Anthrax album Attack of the Killer B's (1991), was ranked Number Twelve on VH-1's 2006 list of the 40 Greatest Metal Songs.
In 1992 Public Enemy and Anthrax hit the road for a joint tour, closing each show with a joint performance of "Bring the Noise." Public Enemy also opened for U2's Zoo TV tour. Then in 1994 a motorcycle accident shattered Terminator X's left leg, and in 1998 he decided to retire from the group. Eventually, Public Enemy added DJ Lord as their full-time DJ.
Public Enemy has continued to record and tour up to the present. In 2005 the band released New World Order, and in 2007 the group issued How You Sell Soul to a Soulless People Who Sold Their Soul? That album included the single "Harder Than You Think." In 2009 Public Enemy's song "Fight the Power" was ranked Number One on VH-1's The 100 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs. The group returned with the album Beats and Places in 2011, while in 2012 Public Enemy issued two albums, Most of My Heroes Still Don't Appear on No Stamp and The Evil Empire of Everything.
The group has also been a major influence on artists and bands in almost all genres of rock and roll, from Nirvana's Kurt Cobain to Björk, from Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails to Ben Harper and on and on.

Careers rarely develop the way we plan them. Our career path often takes many twists and turns, with particular events, choices and people influencing our direction.
We asked Anna Holohan from Irish Tax Institute to give some advice for people considering this job:
I would advise any college student considering a career in tax to undertake a summer internship or placement in a firm offering tax services. I found this an excellent way to understand what a job in tax would actually involve. Researching careers in tax online also shows the endless and exciting opportunities that a tax qualification can offer. I have found the more I have learned about tax, the more I understand how varied roles in tax can be.
Not surprisingly, some aspect of the natural sciences will run through the Naturalist's interests - from ecological awareness to nutrition and health. People with an interest in horticulture, land usage and farming (including fish) are Naturalists. Some Naturalists focus on animals rather than plants, and may enjoy working with, training, caring for, or simply herding them. Other Naturalists will prefer working with the end result of nature's produce - the food produced from plants and animals. Naturalists like solving problems with solutions that show some sensitivity to the environmental impact of what they do. They like to see practical results and prefer action to talking and discussing.

Petteri necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 2073 diseños de 351 diseñadores freelance.
Wired-mag meets Martha Stewart in a logo.
We are a consultancy that helps companies transform their business into the digital era.
Basically, this is what we do: First we ensure that our customers have a clear-cut vision of the future of digital work. Then we help them choose the best technology platforms, products and service providers. Then we supervise the needed ict-projects so that everything goes smoothly. Lastly we take care that the whole organization buys in the change.
So we do no coding or sell no products. We serve as a independent layer above both the big ict-service providers like SAP, IBM and smaller product companies like Dropbox, Evernote and help our customers build a truly effective work environment that increases motivation and productivity.
This quote sums up pretty well the problem that our customers are facing:
"When a 12-year-old can gather information faster, process it more efficiently, reference more diverse professionals, and get volunteer guidance from better sources than you can at work, how can you pretend to be competitive? Hack work, and embrace the others in your midst who care enough to do so."
- Thomas Friedman, The DIY Economy, New York Times, December 2009
Tag words for this project:
hacking work, agile development, cloud computing, future office, social technology, smart systems, seamless services, crowdsourcing, productivity
We target Fortune 500 companies and typically deal with their Chief Executive Officer, Chief Information Officer, Human Resources Manager or Communications Manager. So the focus is not on only the "techies" in the companies but on a more general, maybe humane level.
Our name "Sulava" is a finnish word and it translates to graceful or fluent. So the main challenge here is to find a way of combining the ideas of "gracefulness" and "technology" in one design.
From a style perspective, we're looking for our logo to be simple and clean. The feel should be reliable and friendly (but not cutesy or playful). We are open to different colours, lower/uppercase, serif or sans.
- The ideal logo is typeface only, no icons. Find a simple, classic, elegant way to express our core idea. So no icon is required. We suggest you first work on the font and if you get a 3-5 star rating for your work only after then think if an icon would make your design even better.
- Don't add any taglines, trademark signs etc. to your design. Just the work Sulava.
- Don't use any 3D-effects, shadows or the like in your initial design. You can experiment with those later if we like your basic idea.
- The design should work well in only black&white.
- Take a look at a few logos of companies that work partly in the same field as we do (file attached). Designwise we are looking for something that is as simple but has a bit differentiating feel to it.
The logo should be flexible enough to be used for dark or white backgrounds, reversed-out.
The files we will require are:
- Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
- Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)

Choice doesn't always mean well-being for everyone
American culture venerates choice, but choice may not be the key to happiness and health, according to a new study in the Journal of Consumer Research.
"Americans live in a political, social, and historical context that advances personal freedom, choice, and self-determination above all else," write authors Hazel Rose Markus (Stanford University) and Barry Schwartz (Swarthmore College). "Contemporary psychology has proliferated this emphasis on choice and self-determination as the key to healthy psychological functioning."
The authors point out that this emphasis on choice and freedom is not universal. "The picture presented by a half-century of research may present an accurate picture of the psychological importance of choice, freedom, and autonomy among middle-class, college-educated Americans, but this is a picture that leaves about 95 percent of the world's population outside its frame," the authors write.
The authors reviewed a body of research surrounding the cultural ideas surrounding choice. They found that among non-Western cultures and among working-class Westerners, freedom and choice are less important or mean something different than they do for the university-educated people who have participated in psychological research on choice.
"And even what counts as a 'choice' may be different for non-Westerners than it is for Westerners," the authors write. "Moreover, the enormous opportunity for growth and self-advancement that flows from unlimited freedom of choice may diminish rather than enhance subjective well-being."
People can become paralyzed by unlimited choice, and find less satisfaction with their decisions. Choice can also foster a lack of empathy, the authors found, because it can focus people on their own preferences and on themselves at the expense of the preferences of others and of society as a whole.
"We cannot assume that choice, as understood by educated, affluent Westerners, is a universal aspiration, and that the provision of choice will necessarily foster freedom and well-being," the authors write. "Even in contexts where choice can foster freedom, empowerment, and independence, it is not an unalloyed good. Choice can also produce a numbing uncertainty, depression, and selfishness."

One of the world's richest women will not serve any jail time for an accident authorities say resulted in the death of an 86-year-old woman.
Jacqueline Mars, a co-owner of the privately held candy company Mars Inc., entered the courtroom Thursday using a walker and pleaded guilty to reckless driving. The judge could have sentenced Mars to a year in jail for the misdemeanor charge, but three family members of victim Irene Ellisor read statements in court, forgiving Mars for the October accident and asking that she not be jailed.
The judge followed their request but ordered Mars to pay a $2,500 fine and suspended her license for six months.
"...[I]t's important for this court and the families to know that I will always live with the grief and the loss caused by this tragedy," Mars said in court Thursday.
Ellisor's family embraced Mars -- whose father invented M&M's and the Mars bar -- in a private room after the judge followed their recommendation, reported News4's Northern Virginia Bureau Chief Julie Carey.
Court papers state that Mars told a witness she fell asleep at the wheel just before the crash in Aldie, Va. The sheriff's office says Mars' Porsche SUV crossed the center line and hit a minivan carrying six people, including Ellisor, of Huntsville, Texas. She died at the scene.
Driver Ashley Blakeslee, who was eight months pregnant at the time, was critically injured and lost her baby. The other four passengers in the minivan, along with Mars, were also hospitalized.
Doctors told Blakeslee that her unborn son, whom the family named Charlie, protected her from the brunt of the impact, saving her life.
The Blakeslees call Charlie their hero.
The family had been in Virginia from Texas for Ashley Blakeslee's brother's wedding, Ellisor's family told News4.
Fewer than 600 feet from the scene, Ashley Blakeslee's husband, Travis; father, Arnold Acker; and other family members heard the crash from outside an inn where the wedding rehearsal was scheduled to begin. They ran to the scene and witnessed the emergency response.
Mars, 74, traveled to Texas Monday for a visit with the family the following day.
"I have been down to see Ashley Blakeslee and her husband and tried to begin to express my sorrow and my regret and my empathy with them,"she said.
Mars has provided financial assistance for the families that were affected, according to Mars family spokesperson Kent Jarrell.
Forbes Magazine ranks Mars as the world's seventh-richest woman. She tied for 15th place in the magazine's 2013 ranking of richest people in America with a net worth of $20.5 billion.
That was up five spots from her 2011 ranking, when her net worth was listed at $13.8 billion and she was believed to be the richest person living in the greater D.C. area.

Coity Castle (Welsh: Castell Coety) in Glamorgan, Wales is a Norman castle built by Sir Payn "the Demon" de Turberville ( fl. 1126), one of the legendary Twelve Knights of Glamorgan.
Crickhowell Castle in Crickhowell, Wales (now in ruins) was initially a motte and bailey castle built from around 1121, probably by Robert Turberville, a tenant of the Marcher lord Bernard de Neufmarché.
An important branch of the family was found at Anstey in Wiltshire in early times. "Here was a commandery of the Knights Hospitallers, founded by Walter de Tuberville in the reign of John." [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Lewis, Samuel, A Topographical Dictionary of England. Institute of Historical Research, 1848, Print.
Later, Sir Henry de Turberville, Trubbeville, Trubleville (died 1239) was a noted English soldier and seneschal of Gascony from 1226 to 1231. A Devon man, he was reappointed seneschal of Gascony on 23 May 1234 and held the position until November 1238. He was known as strong fighter for the cause. [2]CITATION[CLOSE]

According to legend, a ghostly coach crosses the bridge by Woolbridge Manor near Wool, Dorset at night, but only those with Turberville blood can see it. One version claims the coach contains the ghosts of John Turberville of Woolbridge and Anne, the daughter of Thomas Howard, 1st Viscount Howard of Bindon on their elopement.
The d'Urberville family in Thomas Hardy's novel Tess of the d'Urbervilles, was based on the mediaeval Turberville family of Bere Regis, Dorset.

U.S.'s 99-year struggle to eradicate terrorism's scourge
On Independence Day 1914, New York experienced a powerful dynamite explosion that killed four people and injured dozens.
As police investigated the scene -- a tenement house on Lexington Avenue in East Harlem -- they discovered the bodies of three notorious anarchists. Further searches unearthed bomb fragments, radical literature and evidence of a plot to assassinate John D. Rockefeller. The device had detonated prematurely, instantly killing its creators.
This month, the United States was horrified and captivated by another terrorist attack. A longer perspective on terrorism and counterterrorism in U.S. history reveals clear patterns that -- especially at times, like these, of high emotion -- are worth recalling.
Violence against civilians (or assassination attempts on leading figures) has inevitably led to increased repression, security and surveillance. The reaction is understandable, but the laws and institutions that arose from previous episodes were far more effective at stifling free speech, chilling dissent and breeding distrust than they were at preventing future attacks. No regulation has consistently stopped determined terrorists.
The first age of terror lasted from about 1886 to 1920 and was defined by a campaign against radical anarchists who believed that violent means could bring about an economic and social revolution. Today's "If You See Something, Say Something" society has its origins in this largely forgotten past.
The initial wave of terrorism was largely carried out by European immigrants: Italians, Germans and Russians. In 1886, an unknown anarchist killed seven policemen with a homemade grenade in Chicago's Haymarket Square. In the ensuing hysteria, four radicals were hanged (a fifth committed suicide in prison), despite a lack of evidence connecting them directly to the crime. Yet the reprisals did nothing to slow the campaign of violence.
In subsequent years, a series of attacks, near-attacks and threatened conspiracies justified an unprecedented set of governmental security measures, as fear of anarchists often blurred with prejudice against immigrants and black Americans.
The very aspects of U.S. society that made it a beacon to the peoples of the world came to be seen as grave disadvantages. When an Italian immigrant living in New Jersey traveled home to assassinate the Italian king, U.S. law-enforcement officers bemoaned the lack of a centralized national police force, similar to the Italian Carabinieri, the French Surete or Scotland Yard's Special Branch. It's worth noting that terrorist violence remained endemic in Europe despite the labyrinthine spy networks.
Fears about domestic terrorism reached new heights in 1901 when President William McKinley was assassinated by an anarchist in Buffalo, New York. In response, Congress enacted a sweeping immigration law known as the Anarchist Exclusion Act of 1903. The legislation was the first to cite ideological justifications as a valid reason to bar foreigners from entering the U.S. It was largely ineffectual because most anarchists in the U.S. hadn't arrived as radicals, but had become politicized by conditions in American factories.
Less than one month after the July 4, 1914, explosion on Lexington Avenue, the New York Police Department announced the creation of a new secret service, the Anarchist and Bomb Squad, its first permanent counterterrorism task force. The unit's officers employed the most modern techniques, as well as elaborate disguises and subterfuges. Even so, the most devastating bombing campaign in the city's history occurred in the squad's first years. Explosives detonated in city churches and courthouses across the boroughs. No one was ever arrested for those attacks.
When the U.S. entered World War I, in April 1917, counterterrorism and antiradicalism efforts spread far beyond New York. The Military Intelligence Division, the Secret Service, the Justice Department's Bureau of Investigation (later to become the FBI), and vigilante volunteers harassed anarchists, socialists, Germans or anyone else who failed to support the war effort.
These steps impinged on free speech, devastated labor unions and destroyed the Socialist Party, but they didn't curb terrorism. The most brazen campaign of bombings occurred in 1919 and 1920. Mail bombs sent to dozens of prominent politicians and capitalists were intercepted by alert postal workers. But in June 1919, powerful bombs detonated in seven cities, including Washington, where the home of U.S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer was damaged.
In response, hundreds of the most notorious anarchists and communists were deported to the newly founded Soviet Union. In late 1919 and early 1920, the attorney general and his young protege, J. Edgar Hoover, authorized a series of mass arrests -- known as the Palmer Raids -- which stand as one of the most repressive government actions in U.S. history.
It was also ineffective. On Sept. 16, 1920, dynamite detonated near the Wall Street headquarters of J.P. Morgan. It was lunch hour and the street was packed. Almost 40 people were killed and 400 were injured.
It was the deadliest terrorist strike attack on U.S. soil until the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Despite a huge manhunt, the identities of the perpetrators were never discovered.
In the years after World War I, there was a growing acknowledgement that the government had gone too far. Organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union were founded to curb infringements on free speech and the right to dissent. Their work created a new understanding of the importance of constitutional rights and the idea that more freedom, not less, is the best guarantee of security.

STERLING — In many ways, it was the kind of game that you expect when you first come back from break. There were some unlucky breaks, some controversial calls and some sloppy passes. Despite all that, the Northeastern Junior College Plainsmen played it tight with the North Platte (Neb.) Knights. But in the end, the Plainsmen couldn't close the gap, falling 62-56.
The Plainsmen only held the lead briefly, for the first minute and a half of the contest when they were 2-0, and then Kameron Pearce made it a 4-2 lead before the Knights tied and then took the lead on a three-point shot from Ben Wilson.
The Plainsmen never fell behind by more than nine points throughout the contest and came as close as four points in the game.
With around four minutes left, Bobby Lebsock scored his final two points of the night on free throws that were immediately followed up by a pair from Alexander Slattley to make it a four-point game. The Knights lurched back ahead on free throws before Jeremy McDonald hit two to make it a four-point game again. Sattley drew another foul on a defensive rebound and got a chance at the line, hitting one of his two shots.
NJC made the intentional foul to stop the clock and dropped to five behind.
They took a time out and then missed the 3-point shot; the ball was stolen away on the rebound. They fouled one more time and a final free throw from the Knights' Damon Brown sealed a six-point victory.
The Plainsmen were lead in scoring by Kameron Pearce, who scored 13 points and added on four rebounds and an assist.
McDonald came on strong with 12 points as well. Jamel Crocker also scored 12 and led the team with eight rebounds on the night.
Bronson Moton had five rebounds and eight points. Moton and Odessa Lear also had two steals each.
The 3-point game proved the downfall of the Plainsmen. The Knights hit six of their 20 shots for 18 net points. The Plainsmen hit only three of their 22 attempts. The Plainsmen also had nine fewer chances at the free throw line and hit seven fewer shots.
The Plainsmen were not without their bright points however. They out rebounded the Knights by seven, 35-22, and that led to six more second chance points than the Knights.
The Plainsmen are now 3-11 overall and 0-3 in Region IX South play.
They are on the road at Lamar this Saturday and then return home on Wednesday, Jan. 16, against Laramie County Community College from Wyoming.

Disney moves filming of 'Millionaire' to Stamford
NBC's "The Jerry Springer Show" is no longer the only seasoned television program in Stamford. ABC's quiz show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" is filming its 13th season at the Connecticut Film Center in Stamford, bringing 150 new jobs into the state.
The show, a production of Disney-ABC Domestic Television, began shooting the 2014-15 season last week with its new host Terry Crews, former NFL player and star of the television series "Brooklyn Nine-Nine."
It's good news for the city's burgeoning production industry, which in the past few years has welcomed companies that include ESPN, NBC Sports and the YES network, as well as shows like "Springer" and "The People's Court" to Stamford. It also highlights the emphasis the state is putting on television, rather than film production, making use of the preserved tax credits for television and digital media.
"Thanks to the momentum of our successful tax credit program, the critical mass of companies involved in television and digital media in Stamford continues to grow," said George Norfleet, director of the state's Office of Film, Television and Digital Media. "The more we attract productions, the more jobs are created, obviously, and the more the economy will be affected positively."
In bringing "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" from New York to Connecticut, Disney's Valleycrest Productions, the production entity for the show, can collect up to a 30 percent tax credit for production expenses through a program sponsored by the Department of Economic and Community Development.
"This relocation -- and the 150 jobs that come with it -- is just the latest example of how our efforts to build Connecticut's television and digital media industry have paid off tremendously over the last three years," Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said in a statement. "With successful economic development tools like our motion picture tax credit program, we will continue to attract the kinds of productions and digital media that not only bring new investments to our state, but also good-paying jobs with good benefits for our residents."
The effect of 150 new jobs being pumped into the area will be seen across Stamford's business community, said Robin Stein, interim director of the city's Department of Economic Development.
"People need to eat, they need to get around," Stein said. "It obviously has a spillover effect on other businesses in the city."
The existing labor force could benefit from the relocation as well. The process of producing many of the shows now based in Stamford, and the labor skills needed to staff them, is very similar, Norfleet said, making it relatively easy for people with these skills to transition between shows.
He added that the state hopes to see "Millionaire" achieve the kind of success and staying power that would induce Disney-ABC to relocate more shows to the state.
"We're counting on that happening," Norfleet said.

It is a big bowl designed for lovers, who can eat ice cream together and therefore provided with a big spoon. cOne of the first results of the F.F.F. (Family Follows Fiction) metaproject, an operation in the early 1990s that aimed to explore the affective structure of shapes and objects, starting from the idea of reproducing the object creation process followed by children and primitive cultures. The result is a family of playful objects reminiscent of fairytale characters: they offer attractive answers to everyday uses, they suggest mediation through playing, and they're a bridge to the world of the imagination.

Foundation of Anthropology Collections
On this page...
Museums are dedicated to collecting, caring, studying and exhibiting the objects of lasting value and interest. Collections are the museum's essence. The Australian Museum was established in 1827 but the beginning of its collections cannot be precisely dated. Probably the Museum already had some collections when William Holmes was appointed Museum Keeper in 1829. Three years later some collections were accessible for public viewing, when Dr George Bennett visited the 'Sydney Museum' [Australian Museum] in 1832. In his opinion the best in 'presentation and numbers' was the collection of birds, followed by mammals and reptiles. Bennett recommended extending the collections by the addition of 'native weapons, utensils and other specimens of the arts as existing among Aborigines' (Wanderings in New South Wales … London 1834, p. 67-9). In 1835 Bennett himself became Secretary and Curator of the Museum, a role similar to a director. He set out to 'extend the collections' and presided over the acquisitions of the first 'native weapons'.
In 1835 Thomas Livingstone Mitchell, Surveyor General presented to the Museum 23 Aboriginal artefacts (and 64 birds) gathered on his expedition to western New South Wales. In 1836, retired captain, Philip Parker King and Commander Morgan Lewis donated about 50 artefacts collected during their rescue expedition to Torres Strait.
King was a member of the first Museum Board of Trustees (the Committee of Superintendence of the Australian Museum and Royal Botanic Gardens) and made his donation to the institution he was appointed to foster. Mitchells' artefacts were probably the first anthropology collections ever acquired by the Australian Museum.

The United Nations ended two days of talks Wednesday on creating a new arms inspection agency for Iraq, despite little indication that Baghdad will accept new weapons searches any time soon, the Associated Press (AP) reported.
Much speculation has focused on the staffing of the UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission since its predecessor, the UN Special Commission, was tarnished by allegations its inspectors spied on behalf of the United States, the agency added.
Chief UN weapons inspector Hans Blix has made clear he doesn't want his new agency to be so politicized, but appointments to key posts have nevertheless boiled down to representing the five permanent members of the Security Council or their allies, AP said.
Blix on Wednesday briefed his advisory board on staffing choices for the new agency - known as UNMOVIC - and also presented his first progress report on its work.
Diplomats were quoted as saying Wednesday that the United States has been offered a senior position in the new agency that would oversee technical support and training.
Russia is to handle external relations, Britain is to be in charge of the information division, China is expected to be offered chief of evaluation while France is believed to be handed the task of overseeing intelligence, AP added.
Weapons inspectors left Iraq in December 1998 ahead of US and British air strikes, launched to punish Iraq for failing to cooperate with arms searches. The Security Council created UNMOVIC last December to replace the UN Special Commission.
But Iraq has said inspectors may not return and has rejected the resolution creating UNMOVIC as recently as Tuesday – Albawaba.com

Saturday, 17 January 2009
Living in Denmark has not proven to be easy for a vegetarian. There is meat in most of the main courses here. (SR's mom has been nice enough to cook fish for me when she cooks). To make up for all of the missed main courses, I started eating more chocolate. This was probably not the best choice in retrospect. Although, if one is going to gain weight, chocolate (specifically Anthon Berg Royal Danish chocolate) is probably a good way to do it.
When we moved into our apartment nearly 4 weeks ago, I weighed 50.1 kg. This morning, I weighed 51.7. Yes, I weighed myself at the same time of day and with the same clothes on. A 3 lb weight gain may not sound like much, but I can see where I'm headed: Last year: real baby. This year: chocolate baby.
The reasons for my weight gain are multifactorial:
-giving up gum for my New Year's resolution
- tapering for the marathon and not being able to run much afterwards due to a strange foot cramp resulting from a heal blister
-lack of sleep (my coughing and The Lorax waking up about 15 times a night)
-stress about trying to get my medical degree approved in Denmark
-stress about money. SR recently informed me that we are responsible for paying his ex-wife's $20,000 in student debt, which she apparently accumulated taking Danish courses (I could launch into a tyrade about the absurdity of this, but that would just be a waste of your and my time)
The plan:
Well, first of all, the stress is less now. My medical degree was approved yesterday, so I can start working whenever I want. And I've made the executive decision that one cannot worry about money. Life is too short and there are too many other important things to worry about and to enjoy. (as we all know, the more stress hormone (ie. cortisol) circulting in your body, the easier it is to gain weight)
Second, the only reliable way I know to lose weight is to eat less and less, until I realize I'm eating little enough to lose weight each day and then continue eating that exact thing until I'm at my goal weight. And increasing my exercise will, of course, help me achieve this.
To reach a diet where I lose weight every day, I may need to start chewing gum again. And I may need to consider eating less chocolate.
How long do you think it will take me to get back to 50.1? (You will find a poll in the right-hand column)

Well, the good news is you know the culprit. So, in knowing that, you know the answer. Like you said... perhaps a bit less chocolate. But, that said, do you really think three pounds on your frame is bad? Is it going to slow you down or perhaps add some extra energy? You obviously did terrific in the marathon so I'm thinking 51 kilos isn't all that bad. How tall are you?

- Danni said...
Maybe my math is off but am I understanding you correctly that you are up to 114 from 111? My opinion is that it might serve you well to focus on nutrition and fueling your workouts. It would probably make you faster and if you gained any weight it would likely be muscle since you run so much. Since you strive to be as skinny as Paul Radcliffe, maybe you should see if there's any info on what an elite athlete's diet looks like and try to emulate that as well???

You have enough "on your plate" stress-wise as it is. Stop obsessing about a kilo! When I got injured and stopped running, I gained 6 kilos in less than a month. Now that I'm getting back to running, I've lost 5 in three weeks. I'm not sweating that last kilo.
And Danish chocolate... SO good (I won't tempt you with my favorite brand).

That sucks you haven't been able to run as much, I certainly feel your pain. I seem to be suffering from an excruciating bout of ITBS. Any suggestions re: stretches/recovery? I was going to do my first half-marathon (actually 14.2 miles) next weekend but am considering scaling back to the 7 mile race as even though I know I could finish the 14 miles, I probably would be pretty slow what with having to shuffle my feet to avoid bending my right knee for the better part of the race.

I guess I don't understand the rationale between cutting your cals so dramatically just to lose 3 pounds. But I'm sure you know by now that I'm not a fan of dieting. I like Danni's advice. You'll likely lose strength if you are cutting back too much.
- 17 January 2009 at 23:31
Your ideal weight is best determined by you. I say if you feel better at 111 lbs (sorry, I can't think in kilos), so be it. Too bad you have to cut back on the chocolate, though! As far as others' concerned comments - wanting to be thin is not the same as being anorexic. If I gained 3 pounds in week, I'd be dieting too.
You are 5'5" - I am also, and considered 111 to be my ideal weight until I was 42, when I experienced some slowing of metabolism. Now that I'm 5 months pregnant (and yes, still running), all that has changed, of course!

Who exactly mentioned anorexia Enthused? I'm pretty sure it's just you???

You guys bring up an interesting point. How did I figure out my ideal weight? Part science, part "gut feeling."
The science in it is, around 111-112 lbs is the weight I can run my fastest 5k. Under that, I start feeling week, over that, I slow down. Of course, I might be able to be faster at a lower weight if I had an ideal diet, but I have not experienced times at a lower weight (and I believe Paula Radcliffe does have a lower BMI than I do).
The non-scientific part is that I feel better at 111-112 lbs. (Enthused, it sounds like you know what I'm saying and I am 5'5" and 1/2)
As for a weight update: I'm down to 51.3 kg this morning from 51.7kg!
- 18 January 2009 at 08:35
Danni, I'm referring to previous comments made about Sea Legs - not something I came up with, but something others have said.
- 18 January 2009 at 15:11
- Abbie said...
I can totally understand the "feeling" part that you explain. I too feel better when I'm around a certain weight. I guess I would say, try not to obsess about the .1/.2 of the kilo. That's like 1/3 of a pound and I would think at that point, it all becomes a mental thing. I liked the comment that said you should look at what some elite runners eat. I definitely would avoid cutting calories too quickly.
And Enthused mentioned you gained 3 pounds in a week. From my reading, it was 3 pounds in four weeks... quite a difference.
- 18 January 2009 at 22:03
You're right, Abbie - I realized that I had made an error (three weeks versus one week) after I posted, but couldn't figure out how to edit the post.
- 19 January 2009 at 16:04
- Dieselmota said...
I took your poll, but my guess was not an option. I think you could lose 3 pounds in 7-10 days. No pressure, though! Take care.

I vote for sticking an electrode in the anterior limb of the internal capsule of your brain to relieve you of your OCD. And then giving you a hug :) Congrats on becoming a real Danish Doc!

I get what you are saying over 3 lbs.....3 can turn into 5 and so on.....Just ensure you are getting good nutrition.
$20k? All I can say is....$20k???????? This must be leftover shared debt from during their marriage. That is the classic 50/50 split of assets. Just buckle down and pay it a little each month. No use getting upset over something you cannot control.
Perhaps she would agree to a payment plan.

|Head Coach
|(916) 278-7053
|Previous College:
|Nevada, '84
Marshall Sperbeck recently completed his seventh year as the Sacramento State head coach. Sperbeck was hired to lead the Hornets on Jan. 13, 2007 and became the ninth head coach in school history.
Sperbeck ranks second in school history in total victories and winning percentage through his first seven season, trailing only legendary head coach Ray Clemons.
In 2013, Sperbeck saw wide receiver DeAndre Carter, offensive guard Tyler Worthley and linebacker Todd Davis each earn first team all-Big Sky Conference honors. The trio were part of 10 Hornets who were named all-league. Quarterback Garrett Safron was a second team selection and set school records for single-game completion, yards and touchdowns, single-season completions, attempts, yards and touchdowns and career touchdowns.
Sperbek led the Hornets to a 6-5 record in 2012 which included wins at Colorado and at home against then No. 11-Cal Poly. The Hornets had 11 players earn all-conference honors following the season and averaged over 400 yards of total offense per game.
In 2010, Sacramento State enjoyed one of its finest seasons since moving to Div. I. The Hornets had 13 players earn all-Big Sky honors, including defensive end Zack Nash who was a second team All-American. The Sacramento State offense, which is under Sperbeck's direction, thrived over the last seven weeks of the year, averaging 36.6 points per game and scoring at least 40 points three times.
The offensive boom was even more impressive when you consider the Hornets played nearly the entire season without their projected starters at quarterback and two receiver spots.
The team carried that momentum into 2011 where Sacramento State gained national attention with a 29-28 overtime victory over Oregon State. The win marked the first against a Pac-12 opponent and made the Hornets one of just six FCS teams to defeat an FBS opponent during the year. Following the season, Nash was named a first team All-American by both the Associated Press and the American Football Coaches Association.
Sperbeck's transformation of the program began to show in 2008 when the team posted the second most victories in the school's Div. I-AA/FCS era. Sacramento State also set team records on both sides of the ball and had three players named first team all-Big Sky.
The Hornet offense was sparked by wide receiver Tony Washington who set a school record with 83 receptions and was named third team All-America. In all, 12 Sacramento State players earned all-conference accolades.
Despite having to start three different quarterbacks during the season due to injury, the Hornets ended the year ranked in the top half of several Big Sky offensive categories. On the defensive side of the ball, the team was 14th nationally against the run and set the school record by allowing just 97.25 yards per game.
In 2009, Sperbeck had 10 members of his team earn all-Big Sky honors. Among those honored were defensive tackle Christian Clark who was named second team All-America by The Sports Network. Safety Zach Schrader was also picked as the Big Sky Newcomer of the Year, becoming the first Hornet to earn the award.
Off the field, Sacramento State has also had great success. In the 2009-10 school year, the football program posted its highest team grade point average in school history and last year, the team was recognized for having the highest Academic Progress Rate (APR) score in the Big Sky. Sperbeck has also seen numerous players earn their bachelor's degree in his tenure. That graduation rate has been key to seeing the team continually raise its annual APR score.
Prior to coming to Sacramento State, Sperbeck was the head football coach at Foothill College in Los Altos, Calif., for 15 years. During that time, he produced a 109-53 overall record and led the Owls to 11 bowl games.
In his final season, Foothill was 10-1 overall and tied for the Northern California Football Association title. The team played in the Silicon Valley Bowl and downed Sierra JC, 24-0.
In 2006, Foothill was one of the top offensive teams in the state with Sperbeck calling the plays. The Owls led all California Junior Colleges with 478.8 yards per game. Foothill also ranked at the top of the list with 590.2 all-purpose yards per game, 7.2 yards per play and 9.6 yards per pass attempt. The Owls were also second in the state with 58 touchdowns and 42.8 points per game.
The respect for Sperbeck by his assistant coaches was evidenced when three of his assistants from Foothill came to Sacramento State as members of the coaching staff, including two who worked side-by-side with Sperbeck coaching the offense.
Overall, his team had winning seasons in his final 13 years and went on to win the last eight bowl games which they appeared.
Sperbeck's players also left Foothill ready to continue their collegiate careers regardless of their football ability as 86 percent of the sophomore football players transferred to four-year institutions. That said, Foothill also produced numerous players that earned football scholarships, averaging 11 per year since 1998.
A native of Sacramento, Sperbeck graduated from Valley High School. He later played at the University of Nevada from 1981-82 and led the team to a pair of winning seasons while throwing for 3,425 yards.
Following college, he had two stints in NFL training camps before joining the Foothill JC staff as an assistant coach in 1985. He coached the quarterbacks and receivers and was later elevated to offensive coordinator before becoming head coach in 1992.
Sperbeck earned a bachelor's of science degree in physical education from Nevada in 1984 and later added a master's of education from United States International in 1989.
Marshall and his wife, Kelle, have three children: Brooke (20), Thomas (18), and Ally (16). Brooke currently attends Cal Poly while Thomas is a freshman on the football team at Boise State.

How do I capture keyboard presses in C/C++?
Like to exit the program when ctrl-c is pressed.
How do I capture keyboard presses in C/C++?
Like to exit the program when ctrl-c is pressed.
the best things in life are simple.
What OS is this? If it is *NIX, the OS kills your app when you hit ^C.
Basically, with the call to signal(2) we are replacing the original signal handler for an Interrupt(CTRL+C) with out own, you can't CTRL+C out of the program now..Code:#include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> void catch_ctrlC(int c) { puts("no exit for you !"); sleep(5); } int main() { signal(SIGINT,catch_ctrlC); while(1) puts("hehe"); }
I think he is asking how to exit the program when ^C is pressed instead of NOT exit.
I can't tell what the orginal poster had in mind when asking about signals, but since ^C's default behavior is to exit, It's probably safe to assume that the poster wanted to do something in particular before and in additon to exiting.
While mray's example will work (and I use the word "work" loosely here and with no disrespect to mray), there are a couple of issues that should be understood when dealing with signals. Since it's obvious the original poster doesn't have any experience with signals, let's get started on the right foot. These examples are for UNIX, but should give you enough information to find what you'll need for Windows as well.
The signal() function should be avoided for several reasons, but mainly because it's completely unreliable. It can't determine the current disposition of a signal without actually changing the disposition of the signal. Absolutely worthless!Originally posted by mray
Code:#include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> void catch_ctrlC(int c) { puts("no exit for you !"); sleep(5); } int main() { signal(SIGINT,catch_ctrlC); while(1) puts("hehe"); }
If that's not enough to convince you, then consider that signal() is a one-hit wonder when it comes to trapping a signal. When a signal occurs, it's delivered and then reset to the default action for that signal! The programmer is generally forced to give another signal() call as the first line in the handler thereby perpetually resetting the action for that signal! Are you dizzy yet? But wait, there's more!
Give some though to the fact that this perpetual resetting of the signals can cause signals to disappear *Poof* or worse! The "or worse" comes in when the signal is a showstopper like SIGINT or SIGQUIT. These problems are a reality because there is a very tiny window of time in between the reset and the handler's call of the signal() function where the signal could occur again and here's the core of the problem: In that tiny window, your program is handling the signal in the default fashion and will not be handled by your handler and that's a Bad Thing.
Well, so now we know why sigaction() should be avoided when at all possible. What do we do now? Say 'ello to my liddle frien'... sigaction()!
The sigaction() call is only slighly more complex and takes care of the issues I've described above. I'm going to leave it up to you to do a little reading on your own to completely figure this out, but here's a quick example to get you started on handling a SIGINT (Control+C).
Recommended reading: Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment by Rich Stevens. ISBN 0-201-56317-7
There is generally no return statement in a signal handler. You'll either be returning to a reentrant function (make sure you understand what a NON-reentrant function is) or you'll be using siglongjmp() to return control to a safe area of your code. These are very important issues to understand.Code:#include <stdio.h> #include <signal.h> /* signals goodies */ void catch_sigint(int signum); int main(void) { /* these structures hold the masking and handling info */ struct sigaction sa_new, sa_old; /* this sets the function to be called when the signal is caught */ sa_new.sa_handler = catch_sigint; /* this blocks all signals while inside your handler so your * handler isn't interrupted while it's handling the signal * you've set it to handle with sigaction(). */ sigfillset(&sa_new); /* read about this, but know you'll probably always set to zero */ sa_new.sa_flags = 0; /* this replaces the signal call. It says when you encounter a * SIGINT, call the handler I've described in sa_new and save * the old information in sa_old. */ sigaction(SIGINT, &sa_new, &sa_old); printf("Now my program catches SIGINT!\n"); sleep(30); return 0; } void catch_sigint(int signum) { printf("\nI received SIGINT!\n"); }
Do yourself a big favor and read a chapter on signals in a good book (I mentioned the best already). You'll save yourself a lot of trouble and I truly mean it when I say it's not that hard. You can learn the majority of what you need to know in one chapter and an afternoon.
Good luck!

Please read my entire biography to help you navigate through my site and enjoy all there is to experience. Having had the chance to grow up in the Rockie Mountains of western Wyoming and having spent my life here, I enjoy the opportunities in which it brings for the interest I have in photography. This allows me the opportunity to get out in an evening or rise early in the morning and see what others only dream about in nature. I have the chance to view nature up close as well as off in a landscape. My goal is to, over the years, be able to bring some of these scenes, moments and dreams to life in my photographs and make them available for others to enjoy as well. I am not a professional photographer or man of great wisdom, but...
