Setting Up and Managing Messaging Server Security
This information provides an overview about security for the Messaging Server product. It also provides links to security topics that provide more in-depth information for configuring and administering Messaging securely.
Overview of Messaging Server
For an overview of the product, see Introduction to Messaging Server Software. For information on general security principles, such as security methods, common security threats, and analyzing your security needs, see Designing for Security. For an overview of operating system security, see Oracle Solaris Security for System Administrators.
To see Messaging Server's high-level architecture, see Developing a Messaging Server Architecture. In addition, the following illustration describes the architecture of the Message Transfer Agent (MTA), Messaging Server's message router: MTA Architecture.
Secure Installation and Configuration
This section describes the installation considerations and recommendations for securing your Messaging Server deployment:
- Installation Overview
- Installing Infrastructure Components
- Installing Messaging Server Components
- Post Installation Configuration
Installation Overview
Understanding Your Environment
To better understand your security needs, ask yourself the following questions:
- Which resources am I protecting?
In a Messaging Server production environment, consider which of the following resources you want to protect and what level of security you must provide:
- Messaging Server front end servers
- Messaging Server back end servers
- Dependent resources
- From whom am I protecting the resources?
In general, resources must be protected from everyone on the Internet. But should the Messaging Server deployment be protected from employees on the intranet in your enterprise? Should your employees have access to all resources within the environment? Should the system administrators have access to all resources? Should the system administrators be able to access all data? You might consider giving access to highly confidential data or strategic resources to only a few well trusted system administrators. On the other hand, perhaps it would be best to allow no system administrators access to the data or resources.
- What will happen if the protections on strategic resources fail?
In some cases, a fault in your security scheme is easily detected and considered nothing more than an inconvenience. In other cases, a fault might cause great damage to companies or individual clients that use Messaging Server. Understanding the security ramifications of each resource help you protect it properly.
Deployment Topologies
You can deploy Messaging Server on a single host or on multiple hosts, splitting up the components into multiple front-end Messaging Server hosts and multiple back-end hosts.
The general architectural recommendation is to use the well-known and generally accepted Internet-Firewall-DMZ-Firewall-Intranet architecture. For more information on addressing network infrastructure concerns, see Determining Your Communications Suite Network Infrastructure Needs.
The following guidelines provide specific recommendations for Messaging Server:
Securing Your Firewall/DMZ architecture
Secure your Messaging Server infrastructure by determining your firewall/DMZ architecture. The following topics cover securing your Messaging Server infrastructure:
- Planning Your Network Infrastructure Layout
- Benefits of a Two-tiered Architecture
- Using MTAs to Protect Your Messaging System
- Network Security
- Two-tiered Architecture
Your firewall/DMZ architecture solution might depend on your anti-spam solution and client capabilities. How you handle firewall and DMZ architecture depends on requirements for a geographically dispersed deployment and whether your deployment is targeted at individual end users or enterprises.
Using a Firewall to Allow Connections
Because the Webmail server (mshttpd) supports both unencrypted and encrypted (SSL) communication with mail clients, you might use a firewall between your Messaging Store and your mail clients for added security.
Some guidelines to consider when using a firewall:
- If using firewall only allow Convergence server to connect to mshttpd (8990, 8991).
- If using firewall (preferably whitelist-based for Messaging Servers), verify internal service protocols are blocked (watcher 49994, job_controller 27442, ENS 7997, third-party authentication server, msadmind 7633, LMTP, Metermaid, and JMS).
Planning Secure High Availability and Load Balancing for your Deployment
The following topics describe how to set up a secure high availability and load balancing Messaging Server deployment:
- Designing for Service Availability
- Deploying Messaging Server 7.0 on Oracle Solaris Cluster 3.2 with ZFS
- Configuring Messaging Server for High Availability
Minimizing Operating System Security Risks
See: Operating System Security
In particular, pay attention to:
- OS hardening, turning off unused OS services (especially in Linux)
- OS minimization, using minimal OS packages
Installing Infrastructure Components
The following infrastructure components should be installed and secured prior to secure Messaging Server installation. You need to understand how all components in the infrastructure interconnect so that you can apply appropriate security measures to every interconnect.
- Directory Server: Messaging Server connects to the Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition, an LDAP-based directory server for user and group information and for provisioning. See Installation Scenario - Directory Server and Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition Enhanced Security.
- Communications Suite Directory Server Setup Script: the comm_dssetup.pl script to prepare the Directory Server for Communications Suite installation.
- GlassFish Message Queue: is automatically installed with the other shared components. For the list of shared components that can be installed by the Communications Suite installer, run the commpkg info --listPackages command. See commpkg info Usage for additional information. To see the output for each supported operating system for more information, see Shared Components. Additionally, see: Configuring and Managing Message Queue Security Services.
- Messaging Server Sun Cluster HA Agent 7.0: High Availability can be optionally installed.
- DNS Server: You must ensure that Domain Name System (DNS) is running and configured properly. For details, see DNS configuration.
- File System: Recommended file systems for the message store are listed in Message Store File Systems.
In addition to dependent products, it is equally important to secure the other components within Unified Communications Suite for secure Messaging Server deployment.
Review the following guidelines for components within the Unified Communications Suite that impact Messaging Server security:
- Convergence: Setting Up and Managing Convergence Security and Can Convergence Perform HTML Filtering?
- Connector for Microsoft Outlook: Setting Up and Managing Connector for Microsoft Outlook Security
- Index and Search Service: Setting Up and Managing Indexing and Search Service Security
- Personal Address Book: Whitelisting Based on User's Address Book
Performing a Messaging Server Initial Configuration
See Messaging Server 188.8.131.52.0 Initial Configuration.
When you perform a Messaging Server initial configuration by running the configure command, you are prompted for authentication credentials for the following:
- User Name and Group Name for Server Processes
- Directory Server manager (bind DN and password)
- Password for server administration
Post Installation Configuration
The high-level post-installation steps to configuring Messaging Server for a secure deployment include:
- Installing Messaging Server Provisioning Tools
- Enabling SMTP Relay Blocking
- Enabling Startup After a Reboot
- Configuring JMQ Notification
- Configuring Certificate Based Authentication
For instructions, see [ Messaging Server 188.8.131.52.0 Initial Configuration].
Once installation is complete, Oracle recommends encrypting and moving the initial state files and configure.ldif file, if generated.
Security Features
Messaging Server supports security features that enable you to keep messages from being intercepted, prevent intruders from impersonating your users or administrators, and permit only specific people access to specific parts of your messaging system. The Messaging Server security architecture is part of the security architecture of Oracle servers as a whole. It is built on industry standards and public protocols for maximum interoperability and consistency. For a general overview of Messaging Server security strategies, see: Planning Messaging Server Security.
This section describes additional features, considerations, and recommendations for securing your Messaging Server deployment:
Messaging Server Security Strategy for your Deployment
Creating a security strategy is one of the most important steps in planning your deployment. Your strategy should meet your organization's security needs and provide a secure messaging environment without being overbearing to your users. For more information, see Creating a Security Strategy.
How you set up the following topics impacts your security strategy guidelines:
- Identifying Password Policy Requirements
- Verifying File Ownership for Configuration Files
- Securely Monitoring and Auditing Your Messaging Server Deployment
- Tracking Security Patches
- Identifying Legal-intercept Requirements
- Securing Your Archiving Needs
- Disabling Users in Response to Abuse/Appeal Process
- Utilizing a Disk Consumption Growth Plan
- Preventing Unrelated Usage of Messaging Server Hosts and Virtual Machines
- Determining Security Capabilities of Your Supported Mail Clients
Identifying Password Policy Requirements
The user password login process is described in User Password Login for Messaging Server.
Review the following additional password policy recommendations:
- Select a password policy system that meets your requirements and any additional requirements you might add at a later time.
- Require your users to create high quality passwords on your site identity system's password change web page. Do not require your users to change passwords too frequently as it cause users to write their passwords on paper.
- Directory Server has password policy capabilities, but if you enable password expiration, be sure the administrator and service accounts used by Messaging Server are exempt from expiration.
- Keep a strong administration password.
- Maintain administrative access policies for Messaging Server hosts.
- Create Delegated Administrator access policies for domains.
- If needed by Oracle Support, plan how to gather configuration files, excluding passwords.
If, starting with Messaging Server 7 Update 5, you use Unified Configuration, this task is made much easier.
Verifying File Ownership for Configuration Files
Related topics include:
Securely Monitoring and Auditing Your Messaging Server Deployment
Monitoring your server is an important part of your security strategy. To identify attacks on your system, monitor message queue size, CPU utilization, disk availability, and network utilization. Unusual growth in the message queue size or reduced server response time may identify some of these attacks on MTA relays. Also, investigate unusual system load patterns and unusual connections. Review logs on a daily basis for any unusual activity.
Refer to Monitoring Messaging Server, which includes topics on:
- Automatic Monitoring and Restart
- Daily Monitoring Tasks
- Utilities and Tools for Monitoring
- Monitoring User Access to the Message Store
- Monitoring System Performance
- Monitoring Disk Space
- Monitoring the MTA
- Monitoring LDAP Directory Server
- Monitoring the Message Store
- Messaging Server Monitoring Framework Support
- SNMP Support
- How to Monitor MeterMaid
Additional guidelines for secure monitoring:
- Ensure you have the right monitoring and auditing tools for your specific deployment and that you have contingency plans in place.
- Enable MTA logging.
Tracking Security Patches
Be sure to install the most recent operating environment security patches and set up procedures to update the patches once every few months and in response to security alerts from the vendor. Be sure to pay close attention to NSS patches.
Identifying Legal-intercept Requirements
The following topics provide an overview for message archiving for legal and compliance purposes:
- Compliance Messaging Archiving
- imarchive with the AXS-One Archiving System
- Message Archiving Using the Sun Compliance and Content Management Solution (for legacy systems only)
Determine which Messaging Server capture mechanism is best to meet those requirements in your jurisdiction prior to responding to a compliance request.
Securing Your Archiving Needs
Once you have satisfied legal requirements, use your third-party archiving system in your jurisdiction so that it can be configured to delete messages from the archive (or make them unreadable by discarding encryption keys). Refer to Identifying Legal-intercept Requirements for message archiving options.
Disabling Users in Response to Abuse/Appeal Process
The following topics describe how to disable accounts, block mail to an account, and enable and disable services at different levels:
- How Do I Temporarily Disable Mail Accounts?
- Can I Block Email to a Specific Account?
- Enabling and Disabling Services
Utilizing a Disk Consumption Growth Plan
Unusual disk consumption may identify some attacks on MTA relays.
See the following topics:
- Monitoring Disk Space
- Managing Message Store Partitions and Adding Storage
- Performance Tuning Considerations for a Messaging Server Architecture
Preventing Unrelated Usage of Messaging Server Hosts and Virtual Machines
Oracle recommends that you do not use Messaging Server hosts or virtual machines for unrelated tasks. Single purpose hosts and virtual machines are better for securing your deployment. Be sure to turn off any unused Messaging Server services.
Determining Security Capabilities of Your Supported Mail Clients
For information on security and access control for mail clients and mail client infrastructure, refer to Security and Access Control where the following topics are covered:
- Authentication Mechanisms
- User Password Login
- Encryption and Certificate-based Authentication
- Mail Filtering and Access Control
- Client Access to POP, IMAP, and HTTP Services
Consider these questions when designing your Messaging Server security strategy:
- Do your mail clients support SMTP Authentication?
- Do your mail clients support standard SSL (STARTTLS on port 143 for IMAP, STLS on port 110 for POP, STARTTLS on port 587 for SMTP Submission)?
- If not, do they support legacy non-standard SSL (IMAPS on port 993, POPS on port 995, SSL SMTP Submission on non-standard port 465)?
- Do you have a plan in place to handle accidental/inappropriate blacklisting of your site by reputation services?
MTA Security Guidelines
Following secure guidelines protect your MTAs from unauthorized users, large quantities of spam, reduced response time, and used up disk space and resources. Protecting MTAs outlines general guidelines to protect your MTAs. This section provides additional details in the following topics:
- Securing Internal MTA Information
- Identifying, Integrating, and Configuring Anti-spam and Anti-virus Solutions with Messaging Server
- Securing ENS Server (7997) with Firewall and/or TCP Access Control Filters
- Creating a Narrow Scope of MTA Relay Blocking in INTERNAL_IP Mapping Table
- Using LMTP to Connect to Inbound MTAs and in Multi-tier Deployments
- Greylisting
- Forbidding Emailing Executable Code
- Throttling Incoming MTA Connections with MeterMaid
- Setting MTA Recipient Limits?
- Using Sieve Securely
- Using the MTA to Fix Messages from Bad Clients
- Configuring Secure ETRN Command Support
Securing Internal MTA Information
By default, Messaging Server enables four private commands called XADR, which returns information about how an address is routed internally by the MTA as well as general channel information, XCIR, which returns MTA circuit check information, XGEN, which returns status information about whether a compiled configuration and compiled character set are in use, and XSTA, which returns status information about the number of messages processed and currently in the MTA channel queues. Releasing such information may constitute a breach of security for some sites.
Sites might want to disable these commands for the tcp_local channel. For example, the commands to do so for Unified Configuration are as follows:
Options in the .options scope under channel are free form. As such, they are neither type-checked nor validated.
Identifying, Integrating, and Configuring Anti-spam and Anti-virus Solutions with Messaging Server
Refer to the following topics on anti-spam and anti-virus solutions:
- Planning a Messaging Server Anti-Spam and Anti-Virus Strategy
- Integrating Spam and Virus Filtering Programs Into Messaging Server
- About the Milter Plugin
- Handling Forged Email by Using the Sender Policy Framework
- Protecting Against Spammers who Compromise Messaging Server User Accounts
- Blocking Email Messages with Executable File Attachments
- Messaging Server Best Practices for Fighting Email Spam
- Performance Tuning DNS Realtime BlockLists (RBL) Lookups
In addition, consider these guidelines:
- Make sure your domain's MX records point directly to Messaging Server's MTA and have the Messaging Server call out to anti-spam/anti-virus systems preferably through the spam plug-in or Milter mechanism.
- Filter both inbound and outbound mail.
- Consider restricting outbound port 25 to outbound MTAs only.
Creating a Narrow Scope of MTA Relay Blocking in INTERNAL_IP Mapping Table
To use the INTERNAL_IP mapping table for MTA Relay Blocking, refer to the following topics:
- Preventing Mail Relay
- How Can I Block Spam Messages With a From Address With No Domain?
- Configuring SMTP Relay Blocking
Starting with Messaging Server 7 Update 5, you can accomplish STMP relay blocking during initial configuration. The configure command prompts for a list of IP addresses of internal systems that are allowed to relay. If the list of such systems is empty, then the default settings from the configure command are used.
Using LMTP to Connect to Inbound MTAs and in Multi-tier Deployments
LMTP can provide an extra layer of security between the relays and the back end message stores. See the following topics:
- Using LMTP to Connect to Inbound MTAs
- Using NFS-based File Systems for Defragmentation and Vacation Caching
- Messaging Server NFS Guidelines and Requirements
- Implementing Local Message Transfer Protocol (LMTP) for Messaging Server
See: Protecting Against Spammers who Compromise Messaging Server User Accounts
Forbidding Emailing Executable Code
See: How Can I Remove Image or Executable Files From Email?
Throttling Incoming MTA Connections with MeterMaid
MeterMaid is a server that can provide centralized metering and management of connections and transactions, including through monitoring IP addresses SMTP envelope addresses. Functionally, MeterMaid can be used to limit how often a particular IP address can connect to the MTA. Limiting connections by particular IP addresses is useful for preventing excessive connections used in denial-of-service attacks.
See the following topics:
Setting MTA Recipient Limits?
See: Limiting Message Recipients
Using Sieve Securely
Review your MAX_* options settings relevant to Sieve filter limits, especially MAX_NOTIFYS.
Notify, Forward, and Redirect can potentially increase the load of generating new messages. You need to consider if abusers could exploit such features by generating message loops or exponential growth of messages.
For Sieve external lists, enable setup carefully only allowing specific criteria. Some Sieve filter user education/Sieve filter creation interface guidelines to consider:
- Discourage users from attempting to personally block spam by using Sieve.
- Check that the interface generates efficient Sieves (for example: lists, wildcard matches, and so on)
Using the MTA to Fix Messages from Bad Clients
If users use email clients that especially vulnerable to buffer overruns, malicious embedding in malformed header lines, and so on, consider configuring the MTA with maximal MTA MIME processing and fixing up messages passing through the MTA with the inner MTA channel option.
Configuring Secure ETRN Command Support
Consider explicitly configuring the ETRN commands that the MTA honors. See the ETRN_ACCESS mapping table, the *etrn channel options, and the ALLOW_ETRNS_PER_SESSION TCP/IP channel option.
Review to the following topics:
ENS Security Guidelines
Securing ENS Server (7997) with Firewall and/or TCP Access Control Filters
To deploy the Event Notification Service (ENS) with Messaging Server, see: Communications Suite Event Notification Service Guide.
The current implementation of ENS does not provide security on events that can be subscribed to. Thus, a user could register for all events, and portions of all other users' mail. Because of this it is strongly recommended that the ENS subscriber be on the "safe" side of the firewall at the very least.
A firewall system generally controls what TCP/IP communications are allowed between internal networks and the external world. Firewalls prevent packets considered to be unsafe from passing through.
Message Store Security Guidelines
The most important data in the Messaging Server is the data in the message store. Physical access and root access to the message store must be protected. Protecting Your Message Store outlines general guidelines to protect your message store. In addition, you should review Message Store Management. This section provides additional details in the following topics:
- Securing Your Backup System
- Using configutil Parameters for Securing Messaging Server
- Being Aware of IMAP ACLs
- Disabling IMAP Shared Folders if Not Needed
Securing Your Backup System
The process for backing up the Messaging Server is described in Message Store Backup and Restore.
Some security guidelines to consider for message store backup:
- Be sure that such a system does not leave unneeded data.
- Backup systems that encrypt data improve your security if you manage the encryption keys properly.
Using configutil Parameters for Securing Messaging Server
The service.feedback.notspam, service.feedback.spam, and service.http.ipsecurity configutil parameters are used to secure Messaging Server. See:
Being Aware of IMAP ACLs
See the following topics: Message Store readership command-line utility and Managing Shared Folders.
Disabling IMAP Shared Folders if Not Needed
Disable shared folders if not in use. See: Disabling IMAP Shared Folders
MMP Security Guidelines
The MMP serves as a proxy for the message store, therefore, it needs to protect access to end user data and guard against unauthorized access. Protecting MMPs outlines general guidelines.
You can use the server machine on which the multiplexor is installed as a firewall machine. By routing all client connections through this machine, you can restrict access to the internal message store machines by outside computers. The multiplexors support both unencrypted and encrypted communications with clients.
For information on MMP badguy throttling and MMP connection limits, see: MMP Reference
User Authentication Guidelines
User authentication allows end users to securely log in through their mail clients to retrieve their mail messages. Planning Messaging User Authentication outlines general guidelines. This section adds the following topics:
- Acquiring SSL Server Certificates for the Server Domains
- Requiring SMTP Authentication for Mail Submission
Acquiring SSL Server Certificates for the Server Domains
Refer to Certificate Based Authentication for Messaging Server on certificate based authentication.
Note the following recommendations:
- Acquire SSL server certificates for server domains to which your users will connect from a third-party CA. If you also wish to secure inter-deployment connections (recommended for a geographically distributed deployment as well as helpful to meet legal requirements in some jurisdictions), also get certificates for your Directory Servers and back-end IMAP/POP storage servers.
- Purchasing Certificate Authority (CA) service or software for your enterprise may be cost effective if you have many hosts in your deployment. Be sure to use at least 2048-bit RSA with SHA 256 signatures per current guidelines unless your jurisdiction does not permit that or some of your mail clients do not support that.
- The certutil provided with Solaris and Communications Suite Installer too can be used with the -g 2048 and -Z sha256 switches). Once enabled, you can configure SSL.
See: Configuring Messaging Server and UltraSPARC T1 and T2 Hardware SSL Acceleration.
Some guidelines for SSL include:
- Having a plan for SSL certificate or CA expiration.
- Turning on SSL where required (external services, possible internal services)
- Requiring SSL where possible (RestrictPlainPasswords, plaintextmincipher)
Requiring SMTP Authentication for Mail Submission
SMTP Authentication, or SMTP Auth (RFC 2554) is the preferred method of providing SMTP relay server security. SMTP Auth allows only authenticated users to send mail through the MTA.
- Using Authenticated Addresses from SMTP AUTH in Header
- How to Configure Messaging Server to Authenticate on Outbound SMTP Connections
- SMTP Password Login
- authrewrite channel option
Message Encryption Guidelines
Planning Message Encryption Strategies covers S/MIME and Encryption with SSL for encryption and privacy solutions. Review the following guidelines and recommendations:
Determining SSL Cipher Suites
See: Configuring Encryption and Certificate-Based Authentication
Review your SSL Cipher framework to determine the following:
- Do your mail clients work if the mail server only supports modern AES cipher suites, modern AES and slow-but-secure 3DES? Or, are legacy RC4 cipher suites required?
- Is SSL3 required, or can you restrict to TLS?
Using Solaris Crypto Framework in Place of NSS Default Software Token
If you use SSL for encryption, you can improve server performance by installing a hardware encryption accelerator.
See: Configuring Messaging Server and UltraSPARC T1 and T2 Hardware SSL Acceleration
Security Considerations for Developers
For secure programming best practices, refer to the MTA Developer's Reference.

Part of this ongoing debate about whether or not to raise the minimum wage is the point that, well, we'd like to raise the incomes of the poor. Some argue we should do that simply through pure free market measures, others through rigging the markets by, say, raising the minimum wage. However, there's an important point that we can make by looking at matters international. Which is that other places haven't in fact raised the incomes of the poor through raising the minimum wage. That's just not been the effective policy.
Lane Kenworthy is no free market extremist like myself, most certainly not, but rather a socially democratic leaning (we might call this "liberal" in the context of the American political debate) economist and an economist who actually looks at the evidence of what has been working:
Reihan Salam: Much of your work is based on the notion that the United States can learn from the efforts of other affluent market democracies to better the lives of the poor. Across these countries, have rising wages been the chief vehicle for raising incomes at the bottom or has it been rising transfers?
Lane Kenworthy: Since the late 1970s, it has been mainly rising transfers. In most of the rich countries for which there are comparable data, the earnings of low-end households increased little, if at all, during this period. (Ireland and the Netherlands are exceptions.) When incomes rose, it was because of increases in net government transfers — transfers received minus taxes paid.
This owes partly to the characteristics of individuals and households at the low end. Some people have psychological, cognitive, or physical conditions that limit their earnings capability. Some are elderly. Many of these households have just one adult, and family circumstances can impose a significant constraint.
It's also a function of the economy, which is less conducive to wage increases for low-end workers than it was during the 1950s and 1960s. It's more difficult to increase productivity in low-end service positions than in manufacturing. Firms now face more intense competition from more sources (foreign and domestic). Companies have more options for replacing workers, whether with machines or with low-cost laborers abroad.
There's three points we can and should make about this. One is one that Kenworthy himself has made over the years. Which is that the US already does more than most other countries to reduce inequality through the taxation system. Yes, I know, that's not what we normally hear but it is still true. The US tax system is, at least at the Federal level, more progressive than the taxation systems of most other countries. This is because, largely so at least, there is no VAT. So the revenue that the Feds collect is largely from income taxes and those are progressive. There's none of that (potentially) regressive collection of money from peoples' consumption. This in itself has two effects. One is that government transfers are smaller in the US as there's just less of the economy washing through government (all levels take perhaps 30 to 35% of US GDP, as opposed to perhaps 45-50% for most European countries). The second is that a greater portion of that smaller amount of GDP raised in taxation is raised by those income taxes, those taxes which are progressive.
The end result of this is that the US does reduce inequality through the tax system more than most other countries do. Those other countries reducing inequality more through the benefits system than the US does. Raising money from all and then spending it on the poor more than the US does.
The second point is one of my perennial bugbears which is that given that it is benefits that reduce poverty then we've really got to make sure that we measure the impact of those benefits properly. And in the US we don't: we don't when measuring inequality or the poverty level, include most of the things done to reduce inequality and or poverty. SNAP, the EITC, Medicaid, Section 8 vouchers: they're just not included in the standard measures of US inequality or poverty (no, really, even the Census estimation of the gini, the inequality level, doesn't include the effects of these things we do to reduce inequality) while their equivalents are included in the measures every other country uses.
Thus, given that it is actually the benefits that reduce these two supposed evils we'd really better start measuring the effects of them properly.
The final point, the third, is that I see a moral dimension to this (one that I think Kenworthy would be most hesitant, to put it politely, to endorse). If it is we, as the collective citizenry, who insist that the poor should have more money (a noble goal, one I share) then it's up to us, that citizenry, to put our hands in our pockets and pay for it. The incidence of a rise in the minimum wage is upon those who cannot get a job at that new higher minimum, on the profits of the employers of minimum wage labour and upon the customers of firms that employ minimum wage labour. The incidence of taxation to pay benefits is upon all of us who pay taxes. Since we're doing the demanding it seems moral to me that we should be doing the paying: rather than fobbing off that cost onto those who are affected by the minimum wage.
But the really important point we should take away from Kenworthy here is that sure, it's true, other countries have less inequality than the US does. But they've not done it by fiddling with minimum wages. They've done it by increasing redistribution. Thus, those who would reduce US inequality would be well advised to follow that successful path and argue for increased redistribution, not a fiddle with the rate of the minimum wage.
Of course, it's always possible that the citizenry, when faced with having to pay for their expressed desires, refuse to countenance the tax bill necessary to satisfy their expressed desires. But that's democracy for you, isn't it?

Couldn't even get through 5, hate to see that before a brutal west coast trip
That was a painful outing today. Hopefully Simon gives them some innings, with the west coast coming up.

SEC Brawlers

Most of you have probably seen the below minor league basebrawl from yesterday. What you may not realize is that it all started when former Ole Miss All American SS Zach Cozart was beaned in the head. Here's a professional video of it. More significant then Cozart being beaned is the asshat pitcher who tries to throw a ball at someone in the opposing dugout and misses. He hit a fan instead who was taken to the hospital.
If you haven't seen the below raw footage of the fight yet, be warned there's some NSFW language.

Overcoming Barrenness
I Samuel 1:10-11 says,
And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the LORD and wept in anguish. Then she made a vow and said, "O LORD of hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head."
These words are written about Hannah, who was barren. But God answered her prayer by giving her a son, and he became one of the most prominent figures in Biblical history—Samuel.
Perhaps there is a "barrenness" in some area of your life, and like Hannah, who was tormented by her adversary—so it is with you. Prayer can change things. It did in Hannah's life, and it can in yours. But there are several things about Hannah's prayer that we need to consider:
1. Hannah's prayer was not casual. It was heartfelt and deep. Too much of our praying is "skin deep." Only prayers that originate from deep within us get God's attention. James 5:16 declares that the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
2. Hannah's prayer was specific. She asked for a male child. Too much of our praying is too general. Don't be afraid to be specific in your requests.
3. Hannah wanted the answer to her prayer to glorify God. Her boy would be dedicated to God's service. When our prayers take on the purpose of glorifying God, we have moved into a higher realm.
If you are experiencing a barrenness in any arena of life, pray. And let your prayers be heartfelt, specific, and for the glory of God.

Takeout-Style Sesame Noodles
Tony Cenicola/The New York Times
- 1 pound Chinese egg noodles (1/8,-inch-thick), frozen or (preferably) fresh, available in Asian markets
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil, plus a splash
- 3 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Chinese rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Chinese sesame paste
- 1 tablespoon smooth peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons chili-garlic paste, or to taste
- Half a cucumber, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/8,-by- 1/8,-by-2-inch sticks
- ¼ cup chopped roasted peanuts
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add noodles and cook until barely tender, about 5 minutes; they should retain a hint of chewiness. Drain, rinse with cold water, drain again and toss with a splash of sesame oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame oil, the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame paste, peanut butter, sugar, ginger, garlic and chili-garlic paste.
- Pour the sauce over the noodles and toss. Transfer to a serving bowl, and garnish with cucumber and peanuts.
- The ''Chinese sesame paste,'' above, is made of toasted sesame seeds; it is not the same as tahini, the Middle Eastern paste made of plain, untoasted sesame. But you could use tahini in a pinch. You need only add a little toasted sesame oil to compensate for flavor, and perhaps some peanut butter to keep the sauce emulsified.
- On which subject, the whole point of cold sesame noodles is what's called in the food trade its ''mouth feel,'' the velvety smooth feeling of perfectly combined ingredients. That's why you find so much peanut butter in preparations of cold sesame noodles. Peanut butter emulsifies better than sesame paste.
- Hey, where are the Sichuan peppercorns? Sichuan food depends on their tingly numbing power! Perhaps, but the little fruits were banned from the United States from 1968 until 2005 by the Food and Drug Administration because they were feared to carry citrus canker, a bacterial disease. And while you could always find them in Chinatowns somewhere (sitting, dry and baleful, in a pile), there are few in the true cult of sesame noodles who use them in their recipes. By all means, add some if you like: toast a tablespoon's worth in a dry pan, crush lightly and whisk the resulting mess into your sauce.

There are three main problems with the moon landing hoax theory, in order as follows:
- It's bollocks.
- Its main advocates know this.
- They additionally think you're stupid enough to believe any old anti-establishment crap they can squeeze out of their lying faceholes, and get a massive ego boost out of proving how much cleverer they are than you by manipulating your gullibility into making you believe that you are the smartest person in the history of ever.

About the ManufacturerPacific Play Tents is a privately owned company dedicated to providing children with creative, high quality, and imaginative products for indoor and outdoor use. As parents of small children, Pacific Play Tents has tried to design products that stimulate their children's imagination and teach them how to interact with each other. Unlike video or computer games, playing "tent" allows children to use their imagination and be anything they want - anywhere they want. They design each tent, tunnel, and play house to be large enough for more than one child to play in, so children learn how to interact with each other, in person, as opposed to some computer screen. Pacific Play Tents has designed all of their tents and tunnels to be interchangeable; buy two or three different tents and connect them together through a maze of tunnels. You can create your very own city of tents and secret hiding places, winding through your very own space.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
Well the story was okay. Pretty dry to be honest. The one major problem was how hard it was to play. There was no stickiness to the aimer making it ridiculous to hit targets at a distance. Also playing first person makes it hard to see all the dinos

Well, I think I found my answer over at ThumperTalk:
"There is no nation wide spark arrestor requirements for US Forest Service land."
So I guess each unit can issue their own orders, requiring either a spark arrestor OR a USFS approved (stamped) spark arrestor...
