Default Alarm clock

I'm new to iPhone development, and I've been trying to figure out how to create an alarm-clock type alert without having the actual application up and running. Can anyone point me to a class that would allow a thread to be running in the background keeping track of the current time and seeing if any alerts/alarms need to be displayed at a given time?

Thanks!

BrianSlick has a spectacular aura about

I don't think this can be done. The closest you will get is probably local notifications.
