SCREEN(1) SCREEN(1)
NAME
screen - screen manager with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation
SYNOPSIS
screen [ -options ] [ cmd [ args ] ]
screen -r [[pid.]tty[.host]]
screen -r sessionowner/[[pid.]tty[.host]]
And, examples I found at a GUN/Linux CS server howto.
-d -m Start screen in "detached" mode. This creates a new session but
doesn't attach to it. This is useful for system startup
scripts.
-S sessionname
When creating a new session, this option can be used to specify a
meaningful name for the session. This name identifies the session
for "screen -list" and "screen -r" actions. It substitutes the
default [tty.host] suffix.
Then, I thought of a mind mapping software called Freemind on my Acer Note Book. Yes, it must be helpful with finding the answer!
I remembered of the bad route table after start my Ubuntu, so I run the command 'ip link set eth0 down' to mend it and 'ip r' to make sure that it worked.
yang@acer:~$ freemind
okay, it started. But I can't inert a second node after the first one 'What shall I do?'
It took me about 10 minutes to find out the reason: the Java program just stopped responding to my keyboard.
^C, freemind
Restart the program to try my luck, yet failed again.
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
update the packages on my system to see if there is a solution. none.
search on the Internet for an alternate, failed.
Decided to write a blog to record the bad experience, and thought of the blog posting client. Tried all 3 installed on my system, and count the start time to choose the quickest, of which I can't find the name.
7:10, 1 hour had past. Quit a long time, huh? Not really, compared with the routine time I spend on PC and Internet, this time is short enough for I didn't go on searching about how to write a freemind-like software.
At last, there is still the question: WHAT SHALL I DO?
How to Get Involved in Research
It's up to you to seek out opportunities to get involved in research. How? First, excel in your courses and take time to get to know faculty (e.g., stop by their office hours to ask intelligent questions, show them interesting articles or cartoons that relate to course content).
Faculty look for students who are motivated, bright, and personable. Do well in class and be generally pleasant, and they might approach you to ask if you're interested in helping out with some research.
But don't wait to be asked to get involved in research, take the initiative. Talk with faculty and let them know that you're interested in obtaining research experience. Ask if they need any help with projects or know someone who is looking for a volunteer to assist with research. Think back to classes that you've taken. Do any professors stand out? Did any talk about the research that they conduct? Perhaps a professor in your department has published an interesting article. Remember, that although having taken a class with the professor may help to break the ice, you should also approach professors whose work interests you, regardless of whether you've taken their classes.
If you find a professor who you'd like to work with, read a couple of his or her articles. This preliminary background reading will show the professor that you're serious, interested in assisting him or her, and motivated. Send the professor your resume and a cover letter mentioning the articles you've read and why their work interests you. Express your interest in assisting them with their work and include information such as your grade point average and the courses that you've taken. Ask to set up an appointment. When you meet with the professor, express your interest, and ask whether you may assist him or her. Most professors are glad to have an extra pair of hands to work on their research projects, but sometimes professors are overwhelmed with students who wish to assist them. If the professor doesn't need additional assistance, ask if he or she knows whether other professors are looking for research assistants.
While conducting research with faculty as an undergradute is useful in enhancing your graduate school application, recognize that in most cases your work will be unpaid. What do you get in return? Experience. You'll get to see what research is all about and get a taste as to whether it's for you. Sometimes students initially have luke-warm interests in research - they get involved because it will look good on their application to graduate school, but once they see what it's like to make new discoveries, they become enthralled with the process and realize that research is fascinating.
In addition to broadening your perspective on research, you might be able to get academic credit for your work as a research assistant. If you're heavily involved in the project and it's successful, you may receive an acknowledgment in a journal article, a presentation at a professional conference, or perhaps even coauthorship on a journal article.
An added benefit of working closely with a faculty member on his or her research is that the faculty member will get to know you well and can write a letter of recommendation that describes your potential for succeeding in graduate school. By working with you over time, he or she will be able to describe your skills and strengths in a much more detailed way than if you were simply a student in class.
What If Professors Aren't Doing Interesting Research?
Remember that your research experience doesn't have to be in your area of interest. Any research experience will help. Besides, sometimes it's good to get involved in different areas of research because you may discover new interests. As an undergraduate, a variety of broad experiences that provide you with a taste of several research areas is better than conducting research only in your area of interest. Of course, if you're completely disinterested in the research topic it might be difficult to remain motivated and do a good job. Understand your interest level and limits when deciding whether to assist a faculty member with his or her research because poor or inconsistent work will not be helpful and can hurt your chances for a persuasive letter of recommendation that benefits your application to graduate school. Regardless of the research topic, many of the tasks that research assistants complete can be tedious: copying, sharpening pencils, administering surveys, entering data into SPSS, and so on. Sure, some of these tasks are boring, but they're necessary for completing the research project.
Be a Responsible Research Assistant
If you get involved in research remember that the faculty member is depending on you. He or she can't afford to have assistants who are unreliable or careless. Agreeing to assist a faculty member with his or her research is a big commitment that you shouldn't take lightly. Your research tasks should come first - treat the research project as a class and be diligent. There's nothing worse than a student who is enthusiastic at first but disappears or performs inconsistent and careless work. The research project gets disrupted, tasks often must be completed again, and the faculty member loses faith in the student. If you find yourself in such a situation, you won't be able to ask the faculty member for a letter of recommendation. Also understand that faculty talk - other professors may learn about the quality of your work which can influence your interactions with them as well. In other words, if you're going to assist a professor with his or her research, be responsible or you may not like the consequences.

The saved sessions are (by default) in "/var/tmp/vi.recover".
If you don't need to recover the sessions, clean the directory out.

This patch attempts to address this weakness by inserting an informational header to messages sent from PHP via the mail() function. The header identifies both the script and the apparent IP address that called it.
The header added has the form:
X-PHP-Script:for
