We�ve kicked off 2007 in true Fair Trade form... with an unforgettable visit to our dynamo producer partners CAC Pangoa in Peru, the addition of a new trading partner and their coffee to our Fair Trade family, and a line-up of events over the next few months that is sure to keep us movin' and groovin'. In this issue, we're delighted to introduce you to our newest trading partners, the Federation of Exporting Coffee Producers (FECAFEB) of the Caranavi region in Bolivia along with their sweet, bright, smooth-bodied premium coffee. FYI... this month�s Fair Grounds special? You guessed it... our new Bolivia Dark Roast. Also this month, you'll find a Community Caravan update and a Valentine's Day coffee recipe. So, sit back, bundle up, pour yourself a hot cup-o-Caf� Campesino java, and read on about the great things that are happening at Caf� Campesino and the world of Fair Trade!
(Back to Headlines)
Roaster Lee has opted to roast this new addition to our lineup to the darker side of dark. So for all of our customers who have been asking for another dark roast option, here you go. Purchase our new Bolivia Dark Roast in our 1, 2, and/or 5 lb bag and get 10% off of the posted retail price. To take advantage of this newsletter discount, please enter promotional code bolivia2007 when prompted upon checkout (if ordering online) or be sure to provide the promotional code if ordering by telephone.

The Federation of Exporting Coffee Producers (FECAFEB) was founded in 1991 as a national organization to defend the rights and needs of small-scale coffee farmers. FECAFEB has taken huge steps forward and seems to be right in stride with the new Bolivian political reality in support of Indigenous voice and rights. FECAFEB is currently comprised of 30 coffee producer organizations, representing some 8,700 families. FECAFEB and its member coops have developed in important ways, including: the consolidation of its now 30 cooperative members; a widespread training program for administrative, leadership and quality control improvements offered to 470 cooperative leaders old and new; creating a political space for the voice of small-scale coffee producers to be heard and amplified; and in the sale of 120 containers of coffee primarily into the Fair Trade, Organic and other specialty markets.
CAC Pangoa Visit � Tripp returned from Peru a few days ago while Bill traveled on from there to visit our Fair Trade friends at Fondo Paez in Colombia. Once Bill is back and both he and Tripp have had a chance to reflect on what they agree was a truly special experience with our friends at CAC Pangoa, they�ll put together an in-depth trip report along with plenty of photos to share in next month�s edition of Fair Grounds. Between now and then though, everyone should know that the people of CAC Pangoa are the genuine article, a living, breathing example of what Fair Trade can accomplish when driven by dynamic, cooperative relationships and guided by the core principles of Fair Trade. The photo (left) features Tripp, Bill and CAC Pangoa general manager and Fair Trade dynamo Esperanza Dionisio Castillo with our gracious hosts and CAC Pangoa members Adolfo �aco and Teofilo Mahuanca of the native community of Mazaronquiari in Rio Blanco/Parua. Intrigued? Stay tuned for more in the March edition of Fair Grounds.
Sustainable Business Day: January 25, 2007 � Last Thursday, Tripp and our friend Sheila Crowley served up Caf� Campesino and talked Fair Trade once again at the annual Sustainable Business Day event held in the Georgia State Capitol Building. Caf� Campesino and dozens of other �green� Georgia businesses showcased an impressive range of products and services to the state�s legislators and the plethora of staff, lobbyists, and constituents who filled the halls of the Capitol building. Georgia Representative Pat Gardner, member of the Committee on Natural Resources and Environment, and Senator Jeff Mullis, Chair of the Senate Economic Development Committee, introduced resolutions supporting the position that innovative businesses can help conserve resources that are crucial for the future of Georgia�s economy. After the legislators had introduced their resolutions, Caf� Campesino friend, neighbor, and Representative Mike Cheokas took the floor and, after distributing Caf� Campesino brochures to all 180 members of the legislature, introduced Caf� Campesino to the members, acknowledging Caf� Campesino for its work as Georgia�s Fair Trade, organic coffee roaster. Thank you Representative Cheokas for your support! We�d also like to thank Sen. Hooks for once again meeting with us at the Capitol and for his longstanding support of Caf� Campesino. Who knows�maybe Caf� Campesino will some day be the coffee of choice in our fine state�s Capitol rotunda! To learn more about the visionary group that made Georgia Sustainable Business Day happen, visit: http://inspiringfutures.org/balle.
On Saturday, February 24th, Caf� Campesino will be hosting our friends Michael Sheridan, CRS� Fair Trade Program officer, and Dorothy Grillo, Director of CRS� Southeast Regional office, along with approximately 20 other folks from the region for a one-day training program entitled Train the Trainer. This one day workshop is designed to help attendees, including most, if not all of the Caf� Campesino staff, to build their skills and become more effective advocates for Fair Trade. Given CRS� leadership in the Fair Trade movement and their support of 100% Fair Traders like Caf� Campesino, we�re certain that this event is just the first of many to come! To learn more about the CRS Fair Trade Program, visit: http://www.crsfairtrade.org/.
Spring is just around the corner, so heads up. In March, Caf� Campesino will be participating in Georgia Organics Annual Conference, ramping up for our annual coffee service at BRAG�s Spring Tune Up, and gearing up for a summer of activities that spread the good word of Fair Trade via a tasty cup of Caf� Campesino coffee.

Title | Personal epistemologies, work and learning |
Author | Billett, Stephen Richard |
Journal Name | Educational Research Review |
Editor | Philipp Dorchy |
Year Published | 2009 |
Place of publication | Netherlands |
Publisher | Elsevier BV |
Abstract | This paper elaborates the concept of personal epistemologies in learning through and for work. It does this by drawing on explanatory propositions from psychology, sociology and philosophy to advance an account of these epistemologies. The aim here is to go beyond conceptions of epistemological beliefs and to position personal epistemologies as being active, intentional, derived in personally-particular ways through socially-derived experiences that comprise individuals' life histories or ontogenies. In this way, they are held to be more encompassing as a conception and are constructed through social experiences, albeit in person-specific ways. Given their active and constructive character, these epistemologies are placed centre stage in the dual processes of learning and remaking culturally-derived practices, such as with paid work. These propositions are discussed and elaborated through a consideration of engagement and learning in forms of work that provide, respectively, relatively weak and rich forms of direct social support, and which require the enactment in different ways of individuals' personal epistemologies in the conduct of and learning through paid work. |

My prayers are with his family. May God comfort Foley's soul in eternity.
Foley was one of our sons, brothers and friends. He was an American. I don't see how we can sleep in this country until we destroy ISIS.
ISIS, is a world cancer and must be eliminated. I realize they are a long way from America, but cancer spreads fast.
Cancer is never welcome in any part of the human body. Cancer grows and kills. It has to be totally removed.
ISIS is the worst malignancy that has occurred on our planet since the Nazis.
I am opposed to putting American soldiers back on the ground in Iraq. However, we have drones, missiles and jets. We must unleash these at full throttle on ISIS. We must also provide the Iraqi people strategic military leadership and help neighboring countries defeat ISIS.
I have never been for America going to Iraq or any other Middle East country. I detest war. With ISIS we cannot sit idly by.
We are not on a separate planet removed too far for ISIS to bother us. They have their sights on America. Their goal is to strike fear and terror into all the Middle East and America.
ISIS must be eliminated.Glenn Mollette is an American columnist and author.

Juniperus phoenicea L. |
Juniperus phoenicea, the Phoenicean Juniper or Arâr,[1] is a juniper found throughout the Mediterranean region, from Morocco and Portugal east to Italy, Turkey and Egypt, south on the mountains of Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, and in western Saudi Arabia near the Red Sea, and also on Madeira and the Canary Islands. It mostly grows at low altitudes close to the coast, but reaches 2,400 metres (7,900 ft) altitude in the south of its range in the Atlas Mountains.
Juniperus phoenicea is a large shrub or small tree reaching 2–12 metres (6.6–39.4 ft) tall, with a trunk up to 1 metre (3.3 ft) diameter and a rounded or irregular crown. The leaves are of two forms, juvenile needle-like leaves 8–10 mm long on seedlings, and adult scale-leaves 0.5–2 mm long on older plants; they are arranged in opposite decussate pairs or whorls of three. It is largely monoecious, but some individual plants are dioecious. The cones are berry-like, 6–14 mm in diameter, orange-brown, occasionally with a pinkish waxy bloom, and contain 3-8 seeds; they are mature in about 18 months. The male cones are 2–4 mm long, and shed their pollen in early spring.
There are two varieties, treated as subspecies by some authors:
- Juniperus phoenicea var. phoenicea. Throughout the range of the species. Cones globose, about as wide as long.
- Juniperus phoenicea var. turbinata (syn. J. turbinata). Confined to coastal sand dune habitats. Cones oval, narrower than long.
The tree's essential oil is especially rich in the tricyclic sesquiterpene thujopsene; the heartwood contains an estimated 2.2% of this hydrocarbon. The biochemist Jarl Runeburg noted in 1960 that "Juniperus phoenicea appears to be the most convenient source of thujopsene so far encountered."[2]

According to the campground's website, they can accommodate trailers and 5th wheels up to 40'. This is simply not true! The road that runs through the campground is steep, winding, and over hung by hundreds of low branches. In retrospect, we should have left as soon as we arrived. The park is old, run down, and covered in red ants and thorns. The fellow campers were noisy and inconsiderate with no supervision from staff. The pool was old and dirty. Several other fellow RV campers we spoke to agreed. The sites are incredibly narrow, close together, not level, and overhung by very low branches. Although we are very experienced in maneuvering our 36' 5th wheel, we struggled to navigate the road through the park and then to get into our narrow site. After positioning our trailer on every leveling block we own, it still was not level because the site was so far sloped. When it was finally time to check out after two nights of very little sleep due to noisy campers that partied until 3 in the morning, we were finally told that the dump station that is listed on their website was not operational. The final straw came when trying to pull out of our pull-through site. Branches and sharp corners blocked by boulders made it almost impossible to navigate our trailer out. After over an hour of trying to maneuver between boulders and branches, our trailer was completely wedged between. We had to call for help and be towed out. Any type of RV, especially one of any length, should never attempt to camp at this campground. Only people in tents, who wish to party all night instead of sleep, should reserve a site at this campground. We will never return! We camped at Oak Knoll Campground in a Fifth Wheel.
Date of Stay: September, 2007 - $30.00
Nice place in the wilderness, lots of shade and trees. No hookups but nice big spaces with picnic tables, great for ourdoor people who don't mind dry camping. There is water in the park and a spigot to fill your RV by the showers. Not much to do but enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery and the sunsets. Dogs loved it. We will be back. We camped at Oak Knoll Campground in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: November, 2006 - $35.00
We enjoyed our stay, although there wasn't much to do for the kids. Sites are pretty rustic, packed dirt with rock walls between. There are lots of trees, so be careful driving in and out. Pool was closed for winter. Nice little store with pool table, library, and juke box. Campground is on a steep hillside, so be prepared to walk up/down hill. Playground was pretty run down and horseshoe pit was not maintained. Sunset views were fantastic. Great location for visiting Palomar Observatory. Be careful driving in/out because we watched a trailer trying for an hour to get unstuck. Camp owners were very helpful in trying to get camper unstuck. We camped at Oak Knoll Campground in a Motorhome.

We subject a falling cloud of cold cesium atoms to periodic kicks from a sinusoidal potential created by a vertical standing wave of laser light. By controllably accelerating the potential, we show quantum accelerator mode dynamics to be highly sensitive to the effective gravitational acceleration when close to specific, resonant values. This quantum sensitivity to a control parameter is reminiscent of that associated with classical chaos and promises techniques for precision measurement.

BABASSU OIL Babassu oil is extracted from the nuts of the wild babassu palm tree, found on the fringes of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. Our supplier, The Cooperative of Agricultural Producers of Lago de Junco (COPPALJ) is based in the north-eastern state of Maranhão in Brazil. It comprises over 150 members from 12 communities. The babassu tree has become an important subsistence resource in Maranhão, where over 300,000 families harvest babassu and are often dependent upon this activity for their economic survival. COPPALJ provides a fair wage, and also helps to lobby on behalf of babassu-harvesting communities to help them protect the forest and their livelihood.To find out more, visit our Community Fair Trade section.
BEESWAX Our Community Fair Trade beeswax is sourced from Guide D'Espoir in Cameroon. We work with Guide D'Espoir (meaning "Guiding Hope) because they produce some of the highest quality beeswax in Cameroon, have a strong commitment to ethical and fair trade principles and are also investing in the development of the beekeepers and their associated communities. Our trade helps provide regular employment and fair wages to approximately 1,000 beekeepers, and so benefits their household members and dependents too: about 10,000 people in total! To find out more, visit our Community Fair Trade section.
COCOA BUTTER/BEANS We source our Community Fair Trade cocoa beans from the Kuapa Kokoo Farmer's Union in Ghana. Now the largest Fair Trade co-operative in the world, Kuapa Kokoo has been trading with The Body Shop since its formative years, growing from a few hundred members to representing 78,000 smallholder cocoa farmers! We receive high quality cocoa from the Farmer's Union which helps us make luxurious cocoa butter for our products; in return, our trade helps provide a steady, fair wage for the members of Kuapa Kokoo, so that they can improve their living standards and invest for the future.
SHEA BUTTER Our Community Fair Trade shea butter is sourced from northern Ghana, where it has been used for centuries to protect skin from harsh Saharan winds. We work with The Tungteiya Women's Shea Butter Association to produce the rich shea butter we use in our products. The Body Shop provides the 528 women of the Association with a fair wage, and also pays a premium for the women to invest in community projects. Anita Roddick placed our first order in 1994 after an earlier visit to Ghana where she discovered the natural moisturising properties of shea butter and the amazing women who produced it.

IS ACUPUNCTURE PAINFUL? Acupuncture does not hurt like a hypodermic needle. Hypodermic needls are thick and in comparison to thin fine hair-like acupuncture needles. When acupuncture needles are inserted and manipulated, to some there is a sensation, often a very mild electrical or tingling feeling, but usually not pain, to others it could be totally unnoticeable.
HOW SAFE IS ACUPUNCTURE? Acupuncture is extremely safe. It is a "drug free" therapy, yeilding no side effects, except feelings of relaxation and being grounded. There is no danger of infection from acupuncture needles because they are sterile, used once, and disposed of after each use.
HOW SHOULD I PREPARE FOR TREATMENT? Before receiving acupuncture, you should eat a snack or light meal, wear loose, comfortable clothing, and do not arrive rushed for treatment.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE? A treatment takes about 30 minutes to 1 (one) hour.
HOW WILL I FEEL AFTER TREATMENT? Patients may feel sleepy or tired, even a temporary worsening of symptoms or pain. These symptoms and occurances are nothing to worry about since they are generally indications that your body is trying to achieve a proper balance.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL IT TAKE BEFORE I SEE AN IMPROVEMENT IN MY CONDITION? This is a difficult question to answer because it varies from person to person. some peple will be able to see an improvement right away. With others, however, it takes as many as ten treatments before they notice a difference. Every person reacts differently. It also depends on how long the problem has existed and how severe it is.

What unexpected turn of events did Watson note in his first report?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Watson heads off to see what he kind find out about the Hound of the Baskervilles, while Holmes supposedly remains behind in London on an important case. In Watson's letter in chapter 8, there is a reference to the escaped convict and the local naturalist Stapleton. However, the surprising event centers around the servant Barrymore.
Watson wakes in the night to find Barrymore, one of the few servants in the house, wandering around with a candle. This makes Watson suspicious.
Barrymore was crouching at the window with the candle held against the glass. His profile was half turned towards me, and his face seemed to be rigid with expectation as he stared out into the blackness of the moor. For some minutes he stood watching intently. (enotes pdf p. 15)
Watson wants to know why Barrymore stood at the window with a candle, and who he was watching for. It is clearly some kind of signal, and very suspicious behavior in light of recent events. This is the first real surprise and unexpected turn of events.

Watched "Shame" over the weekend, my first time seeing it since in the theater in 2011. It's as a good as a I remembered, but I'd forgotten how equally good the soundtrack is. With Blondie, Tom Tom Club and Chic, it's pretty much like hanging out at my house, minus a clingy. maybe-incestuous sister crashing on the couch.

When looking for Sapsali dog puppies for sale, you may find this breed referred to as the Sapsal Gae or the Sapsaree. This breed is popular as a companion dog in their native land of Korea, but is rather rare in other parts of the world.The Sapsali breed originated in Korea and for the purpose of a companion dog and a spiritual healer said to be able to dispel ghosts and evil spirits and still used for these purposes in Korea today. This history of this breed has not been well documented but it is believed this breed can be traced back to the 15th century. Many also debate the ancestry of this breed especially following World War II since some believe today's modern Sapsaree is not the same breed that was historically present in Korea before World War II. The Sapsaree was designated a national treasure by the Korean Government in 1992 and recognize by both leading Korean dog societies (the Korean Canine Club and the Korean Kennel Club).

2005 Nissan PathfinderVisitor, Rochester, NH, February 11, 2013 19:55Cheesy latch on storage compartment near shifter broke. Brakes had caliper hang up and damage rotor resulting in need to replace them. Drivers side rear window does not go up/down with driver front button. Exhaust system seems to rust pretty heavily but has not been replaced yet. Water lines for rear heater are leaking costs $500 to replace with a kit. 1200 for all new lines. Other than the unnecessarily expensive cost of parts, it's been a good vehicle. Maybe not for the price though.Flag ThisLike0

2005 Nissan PathfinderVisitor, Osseo, MN, February 17, 2011 13:05Overall good. Issues I've had: 1) Bad fuel-level sensor means Check Engine Soon light is always on, and I have no idea how much gas is in the car. 500-800 to fix. 2) The climate control system is terrible. You have no way to control the temperature of the breeze coming out of the vents. If you set it at 65 degrees, it could pour out hellish heat, or it could pour out cold air based entirely on what its not-so-brilliant computer thinks it should do. They need to simplify. Let the driver determine how hot/cold they want the air to be. Other than those 2 things, its been good. 112,000 miles (though I've had to replace the serpentine belt twice).Flag ThisLike0

Nora, Tapp Named Preseason All-Big Ten
Aug. 14, 2014 Senior Adrianna Nora (Stillwater, Minn.) and sophomore Hannah Tapp (Stewartville, Minn.) have been named to the Preseason All-Big Ten Team, announced today by the conference office. This is the first preseason laurels for both individuals. Nora, a 6-foot, 3-inch right side hitter, completed an outstanding junior season with the Gophers in 2013. Transferring to the University of Minnesota from Baylor last year, Nora made the most of her opportunity. Playing in 93 sets and 31 matches, Nora became an All-America honorable mention and an All North Region selection. She ranked fourth on the team in kills (218), kills per set (2.34) and hit .303 as a junior. She established 254.5 points last year, including 2.76 points per set, while also holding 0.73 blocks per set. Tapp, a 6-foot, 2-inch middle blocker, added a stellar rookie season last year for the Gophers. As a freshman, Tapp was a 35-match starter, produced 122 kills and hit .404 en route to Freshman All-Big Ten honors. Her blocking abilities helped Minnesota become the second-best blocking team in the Big Ten as she individually ranked fifth in the league with 1.29 blocks per set. She capped off her rookie season hitting .750 against Radford in the NCAA First Round, .450 against Colorado in the Second Round and .429 against Stanford in the Sweet 16. Along with the duo being named Preseason All-Big Ten, the University of Minnesota will enter the season ranked 12th, announced by the American Volleyball Coaches Association. The Big Ten Conference had a strong showing in the national polls with six of the top 12 slots going to league teams. The Big Ten Conference also released its Preseason Coaches Poll, with the Gophers ranked seventh.
Minnesota starts the season on Aug. 29 when it hosts Louisville, Notre Dame and Wisconsin for the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. Wisconsin and Louisville will begin the tournament at 4:30 p.m., followed by the Minnesota/Notre Dame match up at 7 p.m. On Aug. 30. Wisconsin and Notre Dame will compete at 4 p.m., followed by a 7 p.m. Gopher/Louisville match. |

Go Daddy.com easily has the best customer service I've ever worked with. I'm an advocate for this company.
great GUI on the web page as well.
I have 3 domains hosted at GoDaddy. They do have excellent customer service but frankly they need it. I have never been able to purchase and set up a site or blog without their help and superuser priveleges. The help people agree with me when I point out the dead ends one gets into following their on-screen directions. Other than that they are great and the interface is getting better.

A typical TCP client and server application issues a sequence of TCP system
calls to attain certain functions. Some of these system calls include socket ()
bind ()
, listen ()
, accept ()
, send ()
, and receive()
. This article explains what
happens in the lower levels when an application issues the TCP system calls, as shown
in Figure 1 below.
Figure 1. Normal sequence of calls made by the TCP application
Figure 2 below shows the different layers through which the TCP system call propagates before being sent out on the physical link.
Figure 2. Layers of the TCP system call
Any TCP system call that is made is received by the socket layer. The socket layer validates the correctness of the parameters passed by the TCP application. This is a protocol-independent layer because the protocol is not yet hooked onto the call.
Below the socket layer is the protocol layer, which contains the actual implementation of the protocol (in this case, TCP). When the socket layer makes calls into the protocol layer, it ensures that it has exclusive access for the data structures that are shared between the two layers. This is done to avoid any data structure corruption.
The various network device drivers run at the interface layer, which receives and transmits data from and to the physical link.
Each socket has a socket queue, and each interface has an interface queue used for data communication. However, there is only one protocol queue, which is called the IP input queue, for the entire protocol layer. The interface layer inputs data to the protocol layer through this IP input queue. The protocol layer outputs data to the interface using the respective interface queues.
In this article, learn about the following system calls:
socket (struct proc *p, struct socket_args *uap, int retval) struct sock_args { int domain, int type, int protocol; };
In the socket
system call:
is a pointer to the proc structure of the process that makes thesocket
is a pointer to thesocket_args
structure that contains the arguments passed to the process in thesocket
system call.retval
is the return value of the system call.
The socket
system call creates a new socket by assigning a new descriptor. The
new descriptor is returned to the calling process. Any subsequent system calls are
identified with the created socket. The socket
system call also assigns the
protocol to the created socket descriptor.
The domain
, type
, and
argument values specify the family, type, and
protocol to assign to the created socket. Figure 3 shows the call sequence.
Figure 3. Call sequence for socket system call
Once the arguments are retrieved from the process, the socket
function calls the
function. The socreate
function finds the pointer to the protocol switch protsw
structure, depending on the arguments specified by the process. The
function then allocates a new socket
structure. A protocol-specific call, pr_usrreq
, is then
made, which switches to the corresponding protocol-specific request associated
with the socket descriptor. The prototype of the
function is:
int pr_usrreq(struct socket *so , int req, struct mbuf *m0 , *m1 , *m2);
In the pr_usrreq
is a pointer to the socket structure.req
is what identifies the request. In this case, it's PRU_ATTACH.m0, m1, and m2
are pointers to thembuf
structure. The values vary depending on the request.
There are about 16 requests that are serviced by the
The tcp_usrreq()
function calls
tcp_attach( )
, which processes the PRU_ATTACH request.
To allocate an Internet protocol control block,
is called. Within
, the kernel's memory allocator function is
called, which allocates memory to the Internet control block. All the
necessary initializing of the Internet control block structure pointer is done and the
control returns to tcp_attach()
A new TCP control block is allocated and initialized in
. It also initializes all the TCP timer
variables, and control returns to tcp_attach()
. The
socket state is now initialized to CLOSED. On returning to the
function, the socket descriptor is made to
point to the socket's TCP control block.
The Internet control block is a doubly linked circular linked list with a pointer
pointing to the socket structure, and the so_pcb
of the socket structure points to the Internet control block structure. The
Internet control block also has a
pointer pointing to the TCP control block. For more detailed information
on Internet control block and TCP control block structures, see the Resources section.
bind (struct proc *p, struct bind_args *uap, int *retval) struct bind_args { int s; caddr_t name; int namelen; };
In the bind
system call function:
is the socket descriptor.name
is the pointer to the buffer that contains the network transport address.namelen
is the size of the buffer.
The bind
system call associates a local network transport address with a socket.
For a client process, it is not mandatory to issue a bind
call. The kernel takes
care of doing an implicit binding when the client process issues the
connect system call. It is often necessary for a server
process to issue an explicit bind request before it can accept connections or
start communication with clients.
The bind
call copies the local address specified by the process into an mbuf
calls sobind
, which in turn calls
with PRU_BIND as the request. The switch
case in tcp_usrreq()
, which binds the local address and the
port number to the socket. The in_pcbbind
first performs some sanity checking to ensure that a socket is not bound twice,
and that at least one interface has an IP address assigned.
takes care of both implicit and explicit
If the second argument in the call to in_pcbbind()
(which is a pointer to
the sockaddr_in
structure) is non-null, then explicit binding happens. Else implicit binding happens. In the case
of explicit binding, checks are performed on the IP address being bound, and the
socket options are set accordingly.
Figure 4. Call sequence for bind system call
If the local port specified is a non-zero value, a check is made for the super
user privilege if the binding is on a reserved port (for example, port number
< 1024, per Berkley convention). in_pcblookup()
is then called to lookup for a control block with the mentioned local IP address and local
port number. in_pcblookup()
verifies if the local
address and port pair is not already in use. If the second argument in
is NULL or the local port is zero, then
control falls through where it checks to find an ephemeral port (for example, port numbers
> 1024 and < 5000, per Berkley convention).
is then called to verify if the found
port is unused or not.
listen (struct proc *p, struct listen_args *uap, int *retval) struct listen_args { int s; int backlog; };
In the listen
system call:
is the socket descriptor.backlog
is the queue limit for the number of connections on a socket.
The listen
call indicates to the protocol that the server process is ready to
accept any new incoming connections on the socket. There is a limit on the number
of connections that can be queued up, after which any further connection requests
are ignored.
The listen
system call calls solisten
with the socket
descriptor and backlog values specified in the listen
simply calls the
function with PRU_LISTEN as the request.
Within the switch statement of the tcp_usrreq()
function, the case for PRU_LISTEN checks if the socket is bound to the port. If
the port is zero, then in_pcbbind()
is called to bind the
socket to a port (as described in the Bind section).
If there's already a listening socket on a port, then the state of the socket is
changed to LISTEN. Normally, all the server processes listen on a well-known port
number. It's very rare that in_pcbbind
gets called to
perform an implicit bind for a server process. Figure 5 shows the call sequence
for listen.
Figure 5. Call sequence for listen system call
accept(struct proc *p, struct accept_args *uap, int *retval); struct accept_args { int s; caddr_t name; int *anamelen; };
In the accept
system call:
is the socket descriptor.name
is a buffer (an OUT parameter), which contains the network transport address of the foreign host.anamelen
is the size of thename
The accept
system call is a blocking call that waits for incoming connections.
Once a connection request is processed, a new socket descriptor is returned by
. This new socket is connected to the client and the other socket
remains in LISTEN state to accept further
Figure 6. Call sequence for the accept system call
The accept
call first validates the arguments and waits for a connection request
to arrive. Until then, the function blocks in a while loop. Once a new connection
arrives, the protocol layer wakes up the server process. Accept
then checks for
any socket errors that might have occurred when it was blocking. If there were any
socket errors, the function
returns, and it proceeds further by picking up
the new connection from the queue and calls soaccept
The tcp_usrreq
function is called in
, with the request as PRU_ACCEPT. The switch
in the tcp_usrreq
function calls
, which copies the foreign IP address
and foreign port number from the protocol control block and returns these to the
server process.
connect (struct proc *p, struct connect_args *uap, int *retval); struct connect_args { int s; caddr_t name; int namelen; };
In the connect
system call:
is the socket descriptor.name
is the pointer to the buffer that has the foreign IP/port address pair.namelen
is the length of the buffer.
The connect
system call is normally called by the client process to connect to
the server process. If the client process has not explicitly issued a bind
system call before
initiating the connection, implicit binding on the local socket is taken care of by the
The connect
system call copies the foreign address (the address to which the
connection request needs to be sent) from the process to the kernel and calls
. Upon returning from
, the connect()
function issues a sleep until the protocol layer wakes it up, indicating that the
connection is ESTABLISHED or there has been some error on the socket. The
function checks for the valid state of the
socket and calls pr_usrreq()
with PRU_CONNECT as the
The switch case in the tcp_usrreq()
function checks
for the binding of a local port with the socket. If the socket is not already
bound, in_pcbbind()
is called, which performs an
implicit binding. in_pcbconnect()
is then called, which
gets the route to the destination, finds the interface on which the packet has to
be output, and verifies that the foreign socket pair (IP address and port number)
specified by the connect()
is unique or not. Then, it
updates its Internet control block with the foreign IP address and port number
and returns to the PRU_CONNECT case statement.
tcp_usrreq ()
now calls
soisconnecting ()
, which sets the state of the socket
on the client host as SYN_SENT. The function tcp_output
is called, which outputs the SYN packet onto the network. The control now returns
to the connect()
function, which sleeps until the
protocol layer wakes up—indicating that the connection is now ESTABLISHED or
that there has been an error on the socket.
Figure 7. Call sequence for connect system call
The 3-way TCP handshake
Figure 8, Figure 9, and
Figure 10 show the call sequence when the client issues
, and the server issues
to initiate and establish a TCP connection.
Figure 8. Flow sequence for a SYN packet
When the client issues connect
, the
function is called at the protocol layer,
which outputs the SYN packet onto the interface. As shown in
Figure 9 below, the soconnect
now returns
to the connect()
function and sleeps. The socket state
on the client side now is SYN_SENT. The interface layer calls
(actually the interface-specific output
function), which sends the packet onto the n/w.
The interface on the destination (the server) receives the incoming SYN packet,
places it on the ipintrq queue, and raises a software interrupt. The packet is
then picked up by the ipintr()
, which calls the
executes at the s/w interrupt, and picks up
the SYN packet from ipintrq, processes it, and places the partially completed
socket connection in an incomplete socket queue. The socket state on the server
side now is SYN_RCVD. After each processing, the
routine calls
if a response packet needs to be sent to
the other end.
Figure 9. Flow sequence for a SYN, ACK Packet
The server, after processing the SYN, sends a SYN ACK packet using the
tcp_output ()
, ip_output ()
and if_output ()
sequence. The n/w interface on the
client receives this packet, places it on the ipintrq, and raises the s/w
interrupt. Likewise, ipintr ()
picks up the packet from
the ipintrq, and passes it to the tcp_input ()
on the client side TCP stack. The packet is now processed and
soisconnected ()
is called, which wakes up the connect
call. The socket state on the client side now is established.
Figure 10. Flow sequence for ACK packet
The tcp_input ()
routine on the client side
processes the SYN ACK packet, and calls tcp_output ()
send an ACK packet back to the server. The tcp_input ()
on the server side processes this ACK packet and calls
soisconnected ()
. This function removes the socket from
the incomplete socket queue and puts it into the completed socket queue.
Wakeup ()
is then called to wake up the accept call.
The socket on the server side now is established.
shutdown (struct proc *p, struct shutdown_args *uap, int *retval); Struct shutdown_args { int s; int how; }
In the shutdown
system call:
is the socket descriptor.how
specifies which half of the connection is to be closed. A value of zero, one, and two forhow
specifies to close the read half, write half, and both halves of the connection, respectively.
The shutdown
system call closes either one or both ends of the connection. If it
is the read half that needs to be closed, then any data existing in the receive
buffer is discarded and that end of the connection is closed. For the write half,
TCP sends any leftover data and then terminates the write end of the connection.
Figure 11. Call sequence for shutdown system call
If the read half of the connection needs to
be shutdown, the soshutdown()
function calls
. sorflush()
marks the socket to reject any
incoming packets and any system resources held are released.
If the write half of the connection needs to be closed, then
is called with PRU_SHUTDOWN as the
request. The switch case for PRU_SHUTDOWN calls the
function, which updates the state of
the socket, depending on the current state. The TCP/IP state diagram is helpful in
understanding the different states a socket can exist in at any given time. If a
FIN needs to be sent upon returning from
, then
is called, which sends it on to the
soo_close(struct file *fp , struct proc *p);
In the close
system call:
is the pointer to the file structure.p
is the pointer to the proc structure of the calling process.
The close
system call closes or aborts any pending connections on the socket.
The soo_close()
simply calls the
function, which first checks if the socket
to be closed is a listening socket (socket that's accepting incoming connections).
If it is, then the two socket queues are traversed to check for any pending
connections. For each pending connection, soabort()
called, which issues tcp_usrreq()
with PRU_ABORT as the
request. This switch case calls tcp_drop()
, which
checks the state of the socket.
If the state is SYN_RCVD, then a RST segment is sent by setting the state to
CLOSED and calling tcp_output()
. The socket is then
closed by the tcp_close()
function. The
function updates three variables of the
routing metrics structure, and then releases the resources held by the socket.
If the socket is not a listening socket, then control falls to
to check if there is already a control block attached
to the socket. If not, the socket is freed by sofree()
If yes, tcp_usrreq()
with PRU_DETACH is called to
detach the protocol from the socket. The switch case for PRU_DETACH calls
to check if a connection state is
ESTABLISHED. If not, tcp_disconnect()
, which releases the Internet and control
otherwise checks for the linger time and
linger socket option. It calls tcp_drop()
if the option
is set and the linger time is zero. If not, tcp_usrclosed()
is called, which sets the state of the socket and calls
if a FIN segment needs to be sent.
Figure 12 shows the important calls that occur when the close system call is issued by a TCP application.
Figure 12. Call sequence for close system call
sendmsg ( struct proc*p, struct sendmsg_args *uap, int retval); struct sendmsg_args { int s; caddr_t msg; int flags; };
In the send
system call:
is the socket descriptor.msg
is a pointer to themsghdr
is the control information.
There are four system calls to send data on the n/w interface: write
, writev
, and sendmsg
. This article discusses only the
system call. All four send calls eventually
call sosend()
. While send
(a library function called by
the process), sendto
, and sendmsg
system calls can operate only on the socket
descriptor, the write
and writev
system calls can operate on any kind of
Figure 13. Call Sequence for sendmsg
The sendmsg
system call copies the message to be sent from the process to the
kernel space and calls sendit()
. In
, a structure is initialized to collect the
output from the process into memory buffers in the kernel. The address and control
information are also copied from the process to the kernel.
is then called, which performs four tasks:
- Initializes various parameters based on the values passed by the
function. - Validates the conditions of the socket and the state of the connection, and determines the space needed to pass on the message and report errors.
- Allocates memory and copies the data from the process.
- Makes the protocol specific call to send the data on to the network.
The tcp_usrreq()
is then called and, depending on the
flags specified by the process, the control switches to PRU_SEND or PRU_SENDOOB
(to send out of band data). In the case of PRU_SENDOOB, the send buffer size can
exceed up to 512 bytes more in which any allocated memory is freed and
control breaks. Otherwise the sbappend()
functions are called by both PRU_SEND and
PRU_SENDOOB cases. sbappend()
adds the data at the end
of send buffer and tcp_output()
sends the segment onto
the interface.
recvmsg(struct proc *p, struct recvmsg_args *uap , int *retval); struct recvmsg_args { int s, struct msghdr *msg, int flags, };
In the receive
system call:
is the socket descriptor.msg
is a pointer to themsghdr
specify the control information.
There are four system calls that can be used to receive data from a connection:
, readv
, recvfrom
, and recvmsg
. While recv
(a library function used by the
process), recvfrom
, and recvmsg
operate only on socket descriptor, read
and readv
can operate on any kind of descriptor. All the read
system calls eventually call
Figure 14 shows the sequence of calls for the recvmsg
call. The recvmsg()
functions initialize various arrays and
structures to send the received data to the process from the kernel.
calls soreceive()
which transfers received data from socket buffers to the receive buffers process.
The soreceive()
function performs various checks, such
- Whether the MSG_OOB flag is set.
- If the process is attempting to receive data.
- Should it block until enough data has arrived.
- Transfer the read data to the process.
- Check if the data is out of band data or regular, and handle accordingly.
- Notify the protocol when the data reception is complete.
Figure 14. Call sequence for recvmsg
The soreceive()
function makes the protocol-dependant
requests when either the MSG_OOB flag is set or when the data reception is
complete. In the case of receiving out-of-band data, the protocol layer checks for
different conditions to validate that the received data is OOB, and then returns it to
the socket layer. In the latter case, the protocol layer calls
, which sends a window update segment on to
the network. This notifies the other end about any space that is available to
receive data.

ENERGY STAR has established energy consumption benchmarks specifically for Waste Water Treatment Plants. Energy Basics will assist you in performing an ENERGY STAR Benchmarking Audit for your facility at no charge, simply contact us to schedule it.
A free ENERGY STAR Benchmarking Audit is the first step in determining if your facility will benefit from Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs). Energy Basics provides a range of ECMs through add-on energy savings devices, existing hardware upgrades, policy and procedure recommendations, and ongoing Measurement and Verification (M&V) through the monitoring of energy consumption points via our Web Portal. Our program is focused on ECMs with very short Investment Recovery Periods to return the energy savings back to your bottom line as quickly as possible. Below is a listing of the types of waste water facilities that qualify for the free benchmark audit along with a summary of some of the data that will be collected.
A wastewater treatment plant is a facility that is designed to treat municipal wastewater. The level of treatment at a plant will vary based on the BOD limits and the specific processes involved. This space type in Portfolio Manager is appropriate for primary, secondary, and advanced treatment facilities with or without nutrient removal. Treatment processes may include biological, chemical, and physical treatment. This space type is best applied to wastewater treatment facilities of 150 MGD or smaller. This space type does not apply to water treatment and distribution facilities.
Once your data has been entered you will be able to review and update your data on an ongoing basis at any time through the ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager accessible from the Energy Basics web site. There is no charge for this access. If you chose to engage Energy Basics in a customized Energy Management Program, we will maintain that data for you and provide regular reporting to you about your energy savings and progress of your ECMs.
Contact Energy Basics today for your free ENERGY STAR Benchmark Audit!

Looks nice, man. Might try that reddish color behind the mouse. Could give the logo a little more dynamics.
