This was one of Itachi Uchiha's crows that had Shisui Uchiha's left eye implanted into it. It was later stored inside Naruto Uzumaki.
Before his death, Shisui entrusted his remaining eye to Itachi to protect Konohagakure.[1] Itachi would later implant the Sharingan into this crow.
The crow looked no different from a normal crow, except for the fact that its left eye bears Shisui's Sharingan.
Part II
Itachi Pursuit Arc
During an encounter with Naruto, Itachi asked Naruto what he would do if Sasuke ever attacked the village. Seemingly satisfied with Naruto's answer that he would stop Sasuke and save the village, Itachi stated that he would give Naruto some of his power but hoped that he would never have to use it. Using a genjutsu as a distraction he sent one of his crows inside of Naruto.[2]
Shinobi World War Arc
When Itachi was reincarnated during the Fourth Shinobi World War, the crow emerged from Naruto's mouth during his and Killer B's fight with Itachi and an also reincarnated Nagato and overwrote Kabuto Yakushi's control over Itachi. Itachi later explained that he had set up the crow it so that it would show itself in response to Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan. Itachi made it so that the genjutsu would give the order "protect Konoha" to whomever was affected by it. Itachi intended this to be used on Sasuke Uchiha, as he anticipated that Sasuke would transplant Itachi's eyes into his own and also feared that he might one day turn on the village. Seemingly not wanting Shisui's eye to fall into the wrong hands, Itachi incinerates the crow, stating that Shisui's eye would be of no use to them now because it would take another ten years to regenerate its Mangekyō Sharingan form.[3]

OHV consultations go nowhere; appeals to be forwarded
Joshua SeboldPlumas County Supervisor Lori Simpson and Public Works Director Robert Perreault represented the county at a consultation meeting Friday, Jan. 5, with Plumas National Forest (PNF) Supervisor Alice Carlton.
PNF Appeals and Litigation Coordinator Jane Beaulieu began the meeting by explaining the purpose: to see if any of the issues in the county's appeal of the PNF's new Travel Management Rule could be resolved before going to formal review by the regional office.
Forest Service staff said after this meeting the appeals would be forwarded to the regional office, along with the written record from the public process and a document by the PNF referencing sections of the record that related to each appeal.
Beaulieu said that document would also be forwarded to each appellant.
Perreault explained the county's main issue was a failure on the part of PNF staff to coordinate with the county.
He said the county didn't get a good understanding of where the process was going until it neared completion and would have made more comments if it had a better understanding earlier.
Perreault said in his department placing trails on a map would have been done inclusively, meaning each route would be on the map by default and justification would have to be found to take a trail out of the system.
He contended the forest took an exclusive approach, where trails were off the map and had to be argued into the system individually.
"That approach is not traditionally the way the county does planning, the way California does planning, and we felt there wasn't a compelling reason to do it for this project," he concluded.
Carlton countered that the forest had to pick priorities in terms of trails to consider for inclusion because it didn't "have the resources to do intensive surveys on all of them."
She said the forest determined those priorities by designating trails that PNF staff used for work and those they knew were used by the public, along with requesting input directly from the public.
The forest supervisor indicated her employees then began a screening process that routed out trails for reasons like resource damage, relative length of trails (eliminating "spurs") and routes that would "draw people into private lands."
PNF Interdisciplinary Team Leader Pete Hochrein said "a lot" of the routes that weren't included had questions about private property.
"Without an easement we felt we didn't want to encourage people to trespass."
He also reported some trails weren't included because they were "paralleling existing routes and were redundant."
Hochrein told the county representatives most situations came down to balancing the benefit of the route and its resource impact.
In terms of the limiting factor of the workload and funding involved, he remarked, "We surveyed 410 miles, which required four different specialists to actually walk each trail and document the impacts."
Carlton added that, in terms of coordination, "I would never hold up what we've done through this process as being some really great product."
Despite this, she contended that the forest did try to keep the public and local governments interested by meeting with county staff and holding townhall meetings.
Perreault retorted that the townhall meetings often didn't allow for real discussion, as a consultant steered the conversation along from one topic to another.
On the county's perception that the forest didn't coordinate well enough with local government, Simpson commented, "I'm going to be frank with you, all the counties feel the same way."
Perreault referenced the county's adoption of "coordinated agency status" in 2008 and asked the forest supervisor what that action did to alter this process.
Carlton said that was a way for the county to signal it wanted to work closely with the PNF on this type of issue.
Perreault contended the legal definition of coordination between governments meant "you really have to be part of the decision-making process."
He clarified that the county didn't expect veto power over Forest Service decisions but wanted to be kept in the loop about changes as they were made so that it could give input during the process, not after.
Carlton told him she didn't understand in the past how involved the county wanted to be in this type of process but would be aware of it in the future.
She asked the public works director if her comprehension of this problem and pledge to work on it in the future was an adequate remedy to the part of the appeal that addressed a lack of coordination.
Back and forth
Following are a series of quotes meant to capture the flow of conversation between Perreault and Carlton, which occurred at this point of the meeting.
This is not an exact word-for-word re-creation, but does give an accurate representation of the discussion.
Perreault: "In order to consider that request, is there any way to get all of the roads onto the vehicle user map?"
Carlton: "You mean all 1,170 miles open to the public?"
Perreault: "Everything that's out there."
Carlton: "No, not based on this decision. That would take a reanalysis.
"At this point it would take withdrawing the decision and reanalyzing the whole last six years' worth of work, that's what you'd be asking me to do."
Perreault: "Not to be facetious, but what's wrong with that?"
Carlton: "I don't have the time or resources to do that."
Perreault: "You didn't have the state money to do a lot of the work that went into this study?"
Carlton: "We got the state money to do the inventory. We didn't get the state money to do the analysis.
"We get very little recreation money, even less soil and water money, and the majority of our money is fuels treatment and vegetation management money.
"We get some monitoring money and we have some other things but it's been kind of like drawing from all of those pockets. There's been no extra money to do this."
…and back again
Perreault said his perception was that the majority of trails that weren't surveyed were free of resource concerns.
Carlton said, of those surveyed, two-thirds were spurs, had resource issues or led onto private lands.
Perreault indicated he didn't agree with the idea of automatically removing trails that lead onto private lands.
"If there's a roadway or pathway that's been open, and notorious use of that pathway, the fact that it's private land means that you hold a prescriptive easement on that land."
Carlton argued it meant a case could be made for a prescriptive easement, but there wasn't one automatically.
She said the forest could work with the county on getting approval for roads that cross private lands, where the owner hasn't taken a stance either way, on a case-by-case basis.
With no significant resolution reached at the end of the meeting, the appeal will be forwarded to the regional office for approval or denial.
Carlton mentioned that none of the appeals were significantly altered in the meetings that day and all would be moving on to the next step.

At the same time, a growing number of soccer hooligans, aged 15 to 25, appear to have mixed with the Skinheads and to have been influenced by neo-Nazi Skinhead themes. They are known as "casuals," and may include some Skinheads who have shed tradtional Skinhead dress and hairstyle. Skinheads have attacked North African Frenchmen, desecrated Jewish cemetaries, and assaulted hournalists covering a right-wing festival. They have joined with non-Skinhead soccer hooligans to assault fans of North African descent at matches, provoked violent clashes with the police, and scuffled with other far-right groups at demonstratons. Some adult extremists on the right have attempted to recruit Skinheads, meeting with short-lived success. Major population centers - the Paris region, Lyons, Lille-Arras, Marseilles - have the largest concentration of Skinheads, who collect in bands of 30 to 40. There have been smaller groups in Le Havre, Angers, Toulouse, Perpignan and Brest. The ideological themes of French Skinheads inlcude glorification of the white race and hatred for Jews, Arabs, North Africans, Freemasons, capitalism and communism. White Rebel _Le Rebelle Blanc_ (The White Rebel) appears to be the organ of the Jeunesses nationalistes revolutionnaires (JNR, Nationalist Revolutionary Youth), founded by one "Batskin" (true name: Serge Ayoub), after he broke with the far-right Troisieme Voie (Third Way), led by Jean-Gilles Malliarakis. According to knowledgeable observers, the JNR numbers some 10 members, and the publication is not so much the work of Skinheads as a JNR attempt to influence and recruit Skinheads. (Another publication, _Skin Europa_, attributes to Batskin's circle the following self-portrait: "Drunk, yes. Alcoholic, no.") _Le Rebelle Blanc_ contains neo-Nazi and Skinhead symbols. One issue carried references to "the struggle against the cosmopolitans," a codeword for Jews, and a cartoon showing figures of Hitler's henchmen gazaing horrorstruck at a caricature of a black. A photo of Skins in front of the JNR flag is captioned, "Skinheads: the nightmare of the zulus." The zine also carries advertisements for the German neo-nazi group, the Free German Workers Party (FAP) in Muenster and the German Skinhead band Werwolf. Dark Side Skinzines and Skinhead paraphernalia have been sold at two shops in Paris: Dark Side (the name is in English), in the 14th arrondissement, and London Styl in the 18th. Dark Side is said to be the creation of the JNR's Batskin. The shop was bombed in late 1993 and subsequently reopened in the 15th arrondissement under the name Dark Lord. A U.S.-based skinzine describes a compact disc sold through Dark Lord as a "must have": in addition to music by French Skinhead bands, the recording has a spoken introduction by Leon Degrelle, the Belgian Waffen SS general who died in Spain March 13, 1994. A French zine called _Le Cote Obscur_ (The Dark Side) appeals to Skinheads, casuals and other soccer hooligans. One issue contains a full-page ad for Batskin's Dark Side shop, and, given the name, is probably linked to him. Each page is bordered by a sort of Greek key design made of swastikas. Cartoons feature riot police fleeing before a hail of bottles, and Skinheads and hooligans beating people with baseball bats. One page features a score system awarding points for running down Arabs: two points for hitting a single Arab, six for a couple, three for a pregnant Arab, four for a woman with a stroller, and a medal for driving into a mosque during prayers. There are also references to the "Jadaized media" ("media enjivees"). Organization Skinheads appeared in France around 1980. By 1984, they had split into two groups: neo-Nazis, and non-politicals, who were chiefly interested in the music. The latter, who included some black Skinheads, eventually drifted back into society. Neo-Nazi Skinheads became targets for beatings by suburban black gangs (the Skins' dress and hairstyle having made it easy to identify them). this may have contributed to the precipitous decline in the Skinheads' numbers, and the rise of their successors, the casuals, whose numbers roughly equal the Skinheads. There appears to be some overlap between the Skinheads and the casuals. The casuals use rabid support for their soccer teams as an excuse for violence and extreme nationalism, sometimes verring into neo-Nazism. Observers describe them as "little whites," who are outnumbered by African or Arab immigrants in their housing projects, mainly located in the suburbs rather than within the limits of large cities. They vent their resentments by giving Nazi salutes and chanting "Sieg Heil!" at soccer matches, where they deface the stands with swastikas and anti-immigrant graffiti and assault the police and other spectators. Some of the individuals in the stands frequented by Skinheads, casuals, and "hools" (hooligans) identify themselves as members of Jean-Marie Le Pen's Front National; others distribute fliers from the white supremacist Parti Nationaliste Francais et Europeen (PNFE); still others say they come to soak up the atmosphere and revel in the camaraderie. Crimes In September 1993, Skinheads in Paris doused with gasoline and set fire to two young Frenchmen of North African descent, at who they yelled racist insults. The victims, who suffered burns mostly on their faces and hands, were expected to recover. In January 1993, two Skinheads who had desecrated a Jewish cemetery in Lyons four months earlier were sentenced to eight months in prison. The pair had been drinking heavily after watching a soccer match. They later broke gravestones in the city's Jewish cemetery and daubed them with slogans such as "Adolf Hitler is our father" and "Death to the Jews." In the fall of 1993, there were serious incidents at the Paris soccer stadium, the Parc des Princes, during a game between Paris-St. Germain (PSG) and a visiting team. Riot police were driven out of the Kop de Boulogne enclosed stands where Skinheads, casuals and PSG hooligans congregate. A dozen police officers and a police commissioner were injured. The perpetrators appeared to be the Skinheads' putative successors, the casuals. During the Front National's 1995 St. Joan of Arc's Day parade, held in Paris on May 1, a 29-year-old Moraccan immigrant was murdered by drowning. Witnesses told police that three Skinheads broke away from the parage and hurled insults at Brahim Bouarram before one of the Skins threw him in the Seine. The Front National denied any link to the killing. A Skinhead, Mickael Freminet, 19, reportedly has confessed to pushing Bouarram, but said he did not intend to kill him. Foreign Links There are reports of links between French and Belgian Skinheads. French Skinheads have been interviewed by British skinzines. Some French skinzines carry advertisements for German and American Skinhead bands. Still, French Skinheads tend to be ultra-nationalist, and are less eager than their foreign counterparts to forge close ties with Skins in other lands. Music The French Skinhead music scene is limited because bands are unable to rent space on account of their record of violence. _Skinheads Pour Eternite_ (S.P.E.) was a skinzine in Gentily which folded in late 1991, after five years of publication. However, it has continued distributing records, tapes and magazines and has started releasing records on its own label. French Skinhead bands have included Force de Frappe (a name taken from the term for the French nuclear force), Kontingent 88, Legion 88 (88 stands for "Heil Hitler," H being the eighth letter of the alphabet), Brutal Combat, Plastic Gangsters, Evil Skins, Guitar Gangster and Urban Gones (both from Lyons), and Viking (from Le Havre). The ideology of some of these bands is unclear' not all are necessarily neo-Nazi. Record labels include S.P.E., Lion Records, Bird Records, Rebelles Europeens, and Bulldog Service. Rebelles Europeens, of Brest, has been headed by Gael Bodilis and Brigitte Maljak, who was a law student in the early 1990's. Both were active in the Front National Jeunesse (the youth wing of Le Pen's movement), and Bodilis in the Troisieme Voie as well. Among the label's offerings are titles by the English Skinhead band No Remorse, with record jackets emblazoned with swastikas and portraits of Adolf Hitler. According to the Paris newspaper _Le Monde_, Rebelles Europeens was dissolved at the end of 1988, but quietly revived itself in July 1991 with Maljak as president and Bodilis as treasurer. After resuming operations, the firm was very active in producing openly neo-Nazi recordings. During 1995, however, it has shown no signs of functioning. The French police have actively monitored and countered the Skinheads with arrests, prosecution, and exposure. The Renseignements Generaux (police intelligence division) has applied a strategy of exposure in which information is shared with journalists. Some observers believe timely and effective law enforcement has successfully contained the French Skinhead movement. (Anti-Defamation League, 30-33) Work Cited Anti-Defamation League.

Trainer Cesar Paublini with his client Melky Cabrera in May 2012, less than three months before Cabrera was suspended for a positive testosterone test. / Photo via facebook
Nelson Cruz, the Texas Rangers' All-Star outfielder, has not tested positive for a banned substance under Major League Baseball's drug-testing policy.
Tuesday, however, a Miami New Times story alleged that Cruz received performance-enhancing drugs from a Miami clinic along with several confirmed dopers, including outfielder Melky Cabrera, who was suspended 50 games for a positive testosterone test in August 2012.
Cruz and Cabrera have a common connection to training in South Florida, and it's one Cruz tried to distance himself from last year.
In September 2012, USA TODAY Sports asked Cruz about his involvement with Miami-based trainer Cesar Paublini, who was lauded by Cabrera for his work in training him. Cabrera, who worked out under Paublini's supervision in the offseason, was leading the National League in batting and coming off an MVP performance in the All-Star Game when he was suspended 50 games.
Cruz initially denied training or knowing Paublini when first approached by a reporter. Approached again the next day, Cruz kept looking at his cell phone instead of the reporter and said, "What's his name?''
Cesar Paublini, he was told.
"Cesar Paublini?''
Told Paublini has a photo of him on his Facebook page, Cruz became a bit more forthcoming, explaining that the gym where he was regularly working out in Miami â?? Bommarito Performance Systems â?? only trained pro athletes from Monday through Friday.
"I didn't want to take two days off, so one Saturday we went out and ran up a mountain and then went to a gym,'' Cruz said. "That's the only time I recall. I didn't know he was Melky's trainer.
"We went out and ran and they were working out there too.''
"I can't remember,'' Cruz said. "There was a pitcher for Atlanta and two Mets guys.''
Shown the photo where he appears with Cabrera, Paublini and another person wearing a New York Mets shirt, Cruz said, "Yeah, it was that day,'' and identified the fourth person as Mets minor-leaguer Cesar Puello.
Finally, Cruz said of Paublini, "I just met him that day. That was the only day I trained with him. I was working out with Bommarito.''
Paublini did not return several phone messages from USA TODAY Sports, which tracked him down in a gym where he trains clients in southwest Miami.
He steadfastly declined interview requests but did say Cruz is not a client. Paublini was not mentioned in the New Times story and has not been linked to the Biogenesis clinic now under scrutiny.
Cruz was not available for comment Tuesday. The Texas Rangers released a statement saying that they "were contacted late last week by Miami New Times regarding the story posted this morning. At that time, the Rangers contacted Major League Baseball on that inquiry. The team has no further comment."

Very disappointed First of all, this was purchased for my son's friend for a birthday and the purchase was time sensitive. Aside from the shipment being lost and having to have Overstock.com reorder it, when it finally arrived two weeks late, the first thing he sees is the word, "CHINA" stamped on the inside of the ring. Really?? Does anyone want to have this on the inside of a ring especially if they are giving it to someone as a gift? Not happy at all. DO NOT BUY THIS RING.

Save your money Don't waste you money if you want a ring that will last more than a few months. Mine didn't make it more than that... and it lost one of the stones and looked pretty bad (kinda like bubble gum machine jewelry looks) I wanted something low profile to wear instead of my wedding ring so I wouldn't scratch my newborn. Now I wish I had spent a little more and got something nicer.

Jewelry Care Guide
Dazzling diamond necklaces, shiny gold rings and luminous pearl brooches are often sentimental and always valuable. Rare gemstones and metals have enchanted mankind, and womankind, for millennia. Jewelry symbolizes love and commitment, and fashion jewelry diversifies your collection of accessories. Owning jewelry requires an emotional and monetary investment, whether you choose fashion jewelry or fine jewelry.

This jewelry care guide outlines the basics of cleaning and storing these treasures.
USA State Gemstones Fact Sheet
Several states have designated official gemstones, giving jewelry lovers the opportunity to personalize their selections. Natural gemstones are also a state's treasure, as residents are proud of their local geology. Meaningful gemstone jewelry is fun to give as gifts, and state gemstone selections can be gifted like birthstones and anniversary gems. If your wife is Utah-born, for example, give her a topaz ring to celebrate her heritage. If your husband is a native New Yorker, use a set of garnet cuff-links to remind him of home. Gemstone jewelry is also a fun way to remember a special vacation spot or simply add a distinct gemstone quality to an outfit. If you visit Arizona or New Mexico, for example, consider bringing home some spectacular turquoise earrings. Use our list of state gems to choose jewelry that will suit you or someone you love.
Tips on Wearing Cubic Zirconia Rings
If you're looking for sparkle on a budget, consider cubic zirconia rings. Cubic zirconias are beautiful gemstones that show well in all types of jewelry. Sometimes abbreviated as CZ, a cubic zirconia is a synthetic diamond gemstone. Cubic zirconia jewelry is popular for its affordability, flawless appearance and versatility. These rings are lovely and stunning and come in many varieties, including stackable rings, cocktail rings, engagement rings, promise rings and big, beautiful solitaires.

Massive Drop in Market Share Prompts Apple to Launch Smaller, Cheaper iPad
Wed, Oct 03, 2012 - 10:00 PMThe late Steve Jobs was dead against releasing a smaller, cheaper iPad back in 2011, but now that he's gone, Apple are doing it anyway according to the many rumours and leaks currently flying around the internet. So, why is that? Market share. While sales of the latest Retina iPad have increased, Apple's market share has actually dropped massively since 2011, as the graphic below from market research firm Pew shows.
Tablet sales have been steadily increasing, but those sales have most definitely not all gone to Apple. Nowhere near it in fact, as it looks like people just don't want to pay Apple's premium pricing and not everyone wants an Apple-made tablet. In 2011, Apple's iPad had a massive 81% market share, with Android at 15% and others at 4%. However, merely a year later, Apple's market share has had a massive drop to just 52%, with Android now taking up a very significant 48%. Interestingly, it looks like Amazon's new Kindle Fire has shot up to 21% market share, so the competitive threats are clear to see, hence Apple's strategic move to make a cheaper iPad makes perfect sense. If Apple don't do something quickly, then it's quite likely that the iPad's market share could easily drop to well below 50%, which would make Apple terribly unhappy.
We believe that Steve Jobs would have also changed his mind with figures like these, but unfortunately we'll never be able to ask him. There's a lot more detail about this at the link below.
While many believe that tablets are becoming substitutes for desktops and laptops (in addition to replacing print), the Pew research reveals that in fact, tablets are encouraging a new type of user, the multi-platform consumer.

Nashua woman acts as link for Watertown residents
Watertown was the focal point in the search for the two suspected bombers who apparently sought refuge in the town, which borders both Boston and Cambridge.
The town has a large population of Armenian immigrants.
Sorya Taylor of Nashua, herself an Armenian immigrant, hosts a weekly luncheon for Armenian seniors in Watertown each week.
"Everybody is stuck in their houses and if they had a doctor to visit or hospital to go to, they couldn't go because of what they said that everyone has to stay in until they finish the job," Taylor said Friday.
Taylor spent much of the day responding to inquiries in her role as an English-speaking link to the world.
"These are lot of elderly citizens, retired people, so they don't have much," Taylor said. "Unfortunately they don't know anything, whatever you hear on the news, that's it."
A friend said Taylor spent much of Friday taking calls from people, some seeking information, while others, knowing of Taylor's frequent visits to Watertown, called to make sure that she was alright, and not caught up in the gunfire and police searches.
While concerned about how the Watertown seniors she works with were faring, Taylor said the victims of the bombing have not been far from her mind.
"I feel really, really sad and hurt and think of their mothers and the way they feel," she said. "I cannot imagine, really, why they have to hurt innocent people."

The Network interface is a "higher-level" interface to networking facilities, and it is recommended unless you need the lower-level interface in Network.Socket.
- data Socket
- data PortID
- type HostName = String
- data PortNumber
- withSocketsDo :: IO a -> IO a
- listenOn :: PortID -> IO Socket
- accept :: Socket -> IO (Handle, HostName, PortNumber)
- sClose :: Socket -> IO ()
- connectTo :: HostName -> PortID -> IO Handle
- sendTo :: HostName -> PortID -> String -> IO ()
- recvFrom :: HostName -> PortID -> IO String
- socketPort :: Socket -> IO PortID
Basic data types
Either a host name e.g., "haskell.org"
or a numeric host
address string consisting of a dotted decimal IPv4 address or an
IPv6 address e.g., "192.168.0.1"
data PortNumber Source
withSocketsDo :: IO a -> IO aSource
On Windows operating systems, the networking subsystem has to be
initialised using withSocketsDo
before any networking operations can
be used. eg.
main = withSocketsDo $ do {...}
Although this is only strictly necessary on Windows platforms, it is harmless on other platforms, so for portability it is good practice to use it all the time.
Server-side connections
Creates the server side socket which has been bound to the specified port.
NOTE: To avoid the "Address already in use"
problems popped up several times on the GHC-Users mailing list we
set the ReuseAddr
socket option on the listening socket. If you
don't want this behaviour, please use the lower level
If available, the IPv6Only
socket option is set to 0
so that both IPv4 and IPv6 can be accepted with this socket.
:: Socket | Listening Socket |
-> IO (Handle, HostName, PortNumber) | Triple of: read/write |
Accept a connection on a socket created by listenOn
. Normal
I/O operations (see System.IO) can be used on the Handle
returned to communicate with the client.
Notice that although you can pass any Socket to Network.accept,
only sockets of either AF_UNIX, AF_INET, or AF_INET6 will work
(this shouldn't be a problem, though). When using AF_UNIX, HostName
will be set to the path of the socket and PortNumber to -1.
sClose :: Socket -> IO ()Source
Close the socket. All future operations on the socket object will fail. The remote end will receive no more data (after queued data is flushed).
Client-side connections
Simple sending and receiving
Send and receive data from/to the given host and port number. These
should normally only be used where the socket will not be required for
further calls. Also, note that due to the use of hGetContents
in recvFrom
the socket will remain open (i.e. not available) even if the function already
returned. Their use is strongly discouraged except for small test-applications
or invocations from the command line.
Networking Issues
The Handle
returned by connectTo
and accept
is block-buffered by
default. For an interactive application you may want to set the
buffering mode on the Handle
or NoBuffering
, like so:
h <- connectTo host port hSetBuffering h LineBuffering
Improving I/O Performance over sockets
For really fast I/O, it might be worth looking at the hGetBuf
family of functions in System.IO.
On Unix, when writing to a socket and the reading end is
closed by the remote client, the program is normally sent a
signal by the operating system. The
default behaviour when a SIGPIPE
is received is
to terminate the program silently, which can be somewhat confusing
if you haven't encountered this before. The solution is to
specify that SIGPIPE
is to be ignored, using
the POSIX library:
import Posix main = do installHandler sigPIPE Ignore Nothing; ...

Hobbled Yanks try to go to bat for Kuroda
Night after losing Cano and Nunez, New York seeks series victory
The Yankees might play Wednesday's game without Robinson Cano, but his status could have been far worse.
The All-Star second baseman took a pitch off his left hand in the first inning of Tuesday's 7-1 Yankees win over the Blue Jays, ultimately exiting to be taken for further examination at a local hospital, where New York learned his X-rays were negative.
With a mere hand bruise, Cano is day to day, but the Yankees may also be without Eduardo Nunez on Wednesday, as the infielder left Tuesday's game in the ninth inning with a right knee injury after replacing Cano at second base.
If both Cano and Nunez are unable to play on Wednesday, manager Joe Girardi could be forced to get creative.
"I don't know what we have tomorrow," Girardi said after Tuesday's win, "but the fact that there is no break [in Cano's hand] is a good sign."
The potential absence of Cano, however brief, could be a blow for an offense that clicked on all cylinders on Tuesday. New York clubbed four home runs against the Blue Jays, scoring seven runs in a lopsided win and remaining 4 1/2 games back of the final American League Wild Card spot.
The Blue Jays fizzled offensively on Tuesday, recording 10 hits but scoring just one run. Seven of the hits were singles, and Toronto left five runners on base.
The Blue Jays could have trouble breaking out on Wednesday night against Yankees starter Hiroki Kuroda. The veteran right-hander has limited Toronto to just four runs on 11 hits over three starts against them this season, going 2-0 with a 1.69 ERA.
"He's very good -- he's definitely one of the better ones in the league, and he's had our number," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said after Kuroda threw eight scoreless innings against his team on May 17. "We haven't been able to do anything with him."
Yankees: Kuroda looks to bounce back
• Entering Friday's game against the Rays, Kuroda hadn't given up a home run in 56 innings. After six innings at Tropicana Field, the righty had served up four.
The Rays tagged Kuroda for a season-high seven runs that night, ending his streak of 15 straight starts of allowing four earned runs or fewer. The right-hander's ERA increased from 2.41 to 2.71 with the outing.
Blue Jays: Redmond eager to get back on track
• Todd Redmond hasn't given the Blue Jays much length over his eight starts with them this year, but he usually keeps Toronto in the game.
Though he averages fewer than five innings per start, Redmond gave up three runs or fewer in each of his first seven outings. The right-hander unraveled on Friday, though, allowing seven runs in 3 1/3 innings against the Astros.
Redmond will look to rebound from his rough outing against a Yankees team he has never faced.
Worth noting
• Yankees outfielder Alfonso Soriano hit career home runs Nos. 399 and 400 on Tuesday, and third baseman Alex Rodriguez hit No. 651.
