One of the reasons I look forward to the holiday season is that it provides the opportunity to get reacquainted with the inner workings of my FreeBSD system. During the rush of the rest of the year it seems that everything I learn is on a need-to-know basis. So with the excitement of a four year old on Christmas Eve, I break open the eggnog, pump up the volume on the PC speakers, and start reading through the notes I've made to myself over the past year.
It always reminds me of how I felt after my first successful FreeBSD install. After the initial "omg, I just installed Unix!", I sorta sat there in a stunned daze and wondered "now what?" There was just so much to learn, so many man pages to read, so many commands to try out. Not to mention the fact that I kept getting lost and couldn't remember where I was and where I had saved things.
It was then that I acquired two habits which helped me scale the initial learning curve. The first was to subscribe to the freebsd questions mailing list. This is a fairly high volume list, but the information that can be learned from it is invaluable. In the beginning I'd set aside an hour a day to read through the responses. If something sounded interesting, I would try it out on my own system. If I couldn't get it to work, I appended that particular post to an ever-growing file of things to try again at a later date.

The Unix CD Bookshelf
At first that file seemed huge; everything I read sounded interesting, and I wasn't very good yet at getting things to work. But after a few months of persistence, I noticed that I was making progress. It was like getting used to a new language. As I'd read through that file, the information in it seemed less strange and started to make more sense. Pieces were starting to fit together. One day as I was reading through the mailing list, someone asked a question and I actually knew the answer. That was a very good feeling.
The second habit I acquired was taking the time to document everything. I bought two notebooks. The first I labeled "stuff I tried"; the second I labeled "stuff that works". Since I have a knack for discovering all of the wrong ways to do something before I stumble upon a way that works, my first notebook filled up very quickly. I was, however, left with a record of all possible error messages and how I managed to get past them to a working solution. This became an invaluable troubleshooting tool. Knowing how to reproduce an error is as important as knowing how to accomplish something without errors.
The second notebook eventually turned into my little black book of accomplishments. Once I figured out how to do something, I didn't have to reinvent the wheel when I needed to do it again six months later. I could simply look it up and follow my own step-by-step instructions. It was also an excellent way to chart my progress as those empty pages slowly transformed into the stuff I knew how to do on a Unix system.
At some point, I retired those notebooks and started to maintain notes
in my home directory. There are several ways to keep track of your own
experimentations. The first is to record your input and resulting output
using the
script command. For example, I can keep track of
the date I did some experiments with
$ script snort.dec.28.2002
This command tells the
script utility to copy all input
and output to a file called
snort.dec.28.2002. When you use
script command, you'll receive a message stating the
script has started and the name of the output file you specified. You will
also be presented with a fortune, if you normally receive a fortune when
you login. At this point, you can carry on as usual. Once you've finished
recording what you set out to do, end the script by pressing
Ctrl-d. You'll see a message like this:
Script done, output file is snort.dec.28.2002
script utility is an excellent way to record how you
accomplished something; it also creates a file that is handy to send to
someone else so they can see what errors you are running across. It has
its limitations, though, since it records everything, including escape
characters. For example, here is the first line from one of my script
←[1mdlavigne6@~←[m: cd /s•←[K/ysr/•←[K•←[K•←[K•←[K•←
It's a bit hard to tell, but this is what
script was
$ cd /usr/ports/security/snort
The resulting output is unreadable for several reasons. One, I use a
customized prompt which contains control characters. Second, I had
problems typing that day. Instead of
/usr, I typed
/s and had to backspace a character; than I typed
/ysr and had to backspace three characters. Finally, I use
tab completion; you can see that I tried to tab at
sn but
received a beep; I then tried to tab at
sno and had my input
completed to
file utility does warn that this happens:
$ file snort.dec.28.2002
snort.dec.28.2002: ASCII English text, with CRLF, CR, LF line terminators,
with escape sequences
All is not lost, though. This command will get rid of most of the garbage characters:
$ more snort.dec.28.2002 | col -b > snort.dec.28.2002.clean
The result is much more readable:
1mdlavigne6@~m: cd /usr/ports/security/snort
file snort.dec.28.2002.clean
snort.dec.28.2002.clean: ASCII English text
You'll find that if you use an editor during a script session, the
results from the edit will be a bit messy when you re-read your script
file. For this reason, I tend to use the
echo command to send
little comments to myself:
$ echo #once you open up /etc/rc.conf
echo #change this line: linux_enable="NO"
echo # to this: linux_enable="YES"
echo # and add this line: sshd_enable="YES"
These comments help me to remember why I opened certain files and what I did when I was in there.
Another way of recording a session is to open an interactive shell:
$ csh -i | & tee acid.dec.29.2002
Again, you'll receive a fortune and everything you type will be
recorded to the file name specified after the word
tee. When
you are finished, either press
Ctrl-c or
or type the word
exit. I find that this method produces less
garbage then
script so I don't need to clean up the file
using the
col -b command. However, if I try to use
vi from an interactive shell, I'll receive this message:
ex/vi: Vi's standard input and output must be a terminal.
pico editor will work, but the results will still be
very messy when I read the resulting session file.
One of the cool things about recording to a file with either
script or
csh -i is that the results can be
watched "live" from another terminal. For example, another user on the
system can use the
tail command to watch the file as it is
$ tail -f acid.dec.29.2002
This can be very handy if you are troubleshooting a problem and need another user's input on the error messages you are receiving.
So where do you go about finding all the commands on your FreeBSD
system so you have something to try out? At least once a year I like to
play with the
apropos command to see which commands are on
the FreeBSD system. For example, to see all of the built-in general
commands, try:
$ apropos '(1)'
If you happen to be half as curious as I am, give yourself a chunk of
time before you try that command. If one of the descriptions piques your
interest, read the associated man page. No matter how little or how much
experience you have in Unix, you will always find commands you either
haven't heard of or would like to learn more about. For example, this
year I came across
systat, one of those commands I can't
believe I've lived without.
If you just type
systat at a prompt, you probably won't be
impressed. The full power of this command comes from having the man page
open in one terminal and
systat running from another. Any man
page that includes a
pigs switch has to be worth checking
out. Since
pigs is the default, type
:icmp once
you've started
systat, then try a
ping from
another terminal. Once you've ended your
ping, try
:ip or
:tcp or
:swap or
:mbufs. I'll leave it to you to try your own experiments so
you can discover which switches are the most useful for your own needs.
I also remember to take the time to see which games come with the system:
$ apropos '(6)'
I discovered
grdc just in time for my New Year's
resolution of remembering to step away from the computer at least once a
day in order to do some aerobic activity. The display is large enough for
me to see what time it is from across the room, despite my myopia.
I also rediscovered
quiz, a game I had forgotten about in
the last few years. To see what quizzes are available, simply type
quiz for a list. Each quiz type is on a line of its own and
consists of at least two words. For example, if I type:
$ quiz male female
I'll be given a male term and should type in the female equivalent. If
I'm correct, I get a "Right!" and the next term. If I'm incorrect, I get a
"What?" and another chance. If I give up and want to know the answer, I
simply press enter. Pressing
Ctrl-c ends the game. The game
can also be played the other way around by typing this instead:
$ quiz female male
This utility includes quizzes for Latin, Greek, arithmetic, capitals, poetry, number sequences, and even Middle-Earth and Star Trek trivia.
Also in FreeBSD Basics:
Some of the games on your system supplement the man page with
additional documentation. This is a good time to mention that the
documentation that comes in the
/usr/share/doc directory is
truly awesome when you are ready to delve deeper into the inner mysteries
of Unix. You can also read and see the general layout of this
The documentation contains a who's who of Unix and many of the classic, "everybody should have a chance to read at least once" documents. It really is something to be able to read documentation from the very people who created Unix, the C programming language, the Fast File System, Sendmail, the Bourne shell, the C shell, vi, and so on. It's a good way to find out how things came to be and why they are the way they are. One of the many things I'm looking forward to in FreeBSD Release 5.0 is that some of the formerly encumbered documents will become available in the documentation. A list of those upcoming documents can be found in the CURRENT release notes.
Let's take a look at the contents of the documents directory:
$ ls -F /usr/share/doc
IPv6/ bind/ ncurses/ ntp/ papers/ psd/ smm/ usd/
You'll note that it is composed of several subdirectories. The
psd is the Programmer's Supplementary Documents, the
smm is the System Manager's Manual, and the
is the User's Supplementary Documents. Those three subdirectories and the
papers subdirectory each contain a file called
contents.ascii.gz which gives a description of the
documentation found in the associated subdirectory.
You may remember that a
gz extension indicates a zipped
file. You don't have to unzip a file in order to read it. For example, to
see the contents of the psd, simply use the
zmore utility
instead of
$ zmore /usr/share/doc/psd/contents.ascii.gz
And if one of the documents looks interesting:
$ zmore /usr/share/doc/psd/12.make/paper.ascii.gz
Over the holidays, I always find time to reread portions of the documentation. I also go through my extensive bookmark collection and revisit the homepages of some of the authors of that documentation. If you're unfamiliar with some of the who's who, you may enjoy these links:
Between those URLs and the documentation, you should have plenty of quality reading to keep you busy and learning about your FreeBSD system for quite a while.
If you happen to be in the Ottawa area on January 25 and 26, check out the Open Source Weekend. Dan Langille and I will be manning the FreeBSD booth on Saturday, so drop by to say "hi" and show your support for FreeBSD. See you there.

This album was very uninspiring and really awful, and this is coming from a fan. I felt like this album was rushed out of production to get it out so people would not lose faith in their music. Well I think that has already happened throughout the years with all the drama. I do hope the next release is a huge improvement.
Written by Dead Eternity on 02.10.2012 at 19:32
Not the greatest comeback, but there are some great songs like Deep Unknown and Falling Star. My brother thinks this new Stratovarius is a lot better than the one with Tolkki, and he is a longtime fan just like me...

If any one can help, I am almost exclusively pumping for my almost four month old daughter. She was nursing one time during the night up until a few days ago. I am worried that because she is no longer doing this my body will not know how much milk to make as she develops. Right now I am pumping 5-6 times per day and making enough milk for all her feedings. My question is will my body adapt as time goes on or will I need to increase pumpings as she gets older?
Also, when exclusively pumping does this offer any sort of "birth control" as exclusively breastfeeding is reported to do?
I appreciate any and all help that comes my way!
Thank you!
Carmen's mommy!

How To Report A Problem Post
Problems with inappropriate content should be reported via the "Report Post" feature. Just click the
image in the problematic post and fill out the form.
Ideally the complaint should cite the specific rule than has been transgressed. For reference, forum rules are posted
There is no need to submit the same report twice or to join with others to express outrage over an offensive post. One report is sufficient. Multiple reports on the same offense only add to moderator work loads.

Statement of Purpose
This forum used to be titled Eastern Christianity. It allowed for discussions on the various issues between the Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodoxy, hopefully in the cause of ecumenism. Unfortunately, forum discussions often deteriorated into fights resulting in a large increase in management time (which we could ill afford).
This forum is now titled
Eastern Catholicism
. The focus of this forum is to provide a community for Eastern Catholics and to help Latin Catholics better appreciate the Church's Eastern heritage. Non-Catholics are welcome to participate in compliance with the stated purpose of the forum.
We understand that there is a wide diversity of expression of theology, spirituality, and discipline between and within the Eastern, Oriental, and Western rites and churches. While these topics may legitimately be discussed in charity, calling into question the catholicity, orthodoxy, or personal faith of another is outside the purpose of this forum and will not be tolerated. Please review our forum guidelines on
before posting.
Thank you for your participation in this forum and we hope that the changes we have made will contribute to this forums success.

On the use of the words uniate, schismatic, and heretic
Historically, the term Uniate was employed relatively freely by the Catholic Churches, including those of the East and Orient, as well as by the Orthodox Churches.
During a period in the 20th century, it took on a pejorative nature when it was perceived as being used sneeringly by some Orthodox (principally those of the Eastern, rather than the Oriental, Churches). As a result, the Eastern and Oriental Catholics ceased using the term in reference to themselves, particularly in America, where the majority of CAF's posters reside.
In recent history, there has been some increase in the use of the term by Rome itself and by some Eastern and Oriental Catholics. The subject has been much discussed here in the past, expressing that a large segment of CAF's Eastern and Oriental Catholics continue to view the term to be an offensive pejorative. As such, the abiding guideline was a ban of the term uniate, along with heretic and schismatic (and their derivative forms), when they are used in a manner that smacks of them being confrontational, contemptuous, disparaging, inciteful, insulting, taunting, or worse.
Knowing the offense taken by many of the Eastern and Oriental Catholics who post here, and knowing the historical context for their concern,
using the term uniate as a generic descriptor for Catholics of the Eastern and Oriental Churches who are in union with Rome is by nature confrontational and uncharitable and as such is not allowed.
Likewise, the use of the terms schismatic or heretic may not be used as generic descriptors for any of the Eastern or Oriental Churches, whether Catholic or Orthodox.
An example of acceptable usage of the terms is a direct quote of a third-party document which is otherwise pertinent to an ongoing discussion. Care should be taken by all posters that their choice of words foster an environment in which it is possible to discuss, dialogue, dissent, and even debate without causing offense or acrimony between posters.
Note that ascribing these terms to the faithful or to individual members of any of the Apostolic Churches is absolutely unacceptable and will not be tolerated.
Please review our
Charity guidelines
first, and if you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact a forum moderator.

Guidelines for posting in Religious Discussions and Debates
Debate Guidelines for Eastern Catholicism
These guidelines are the same as CAF's long-standing religious discussion guidelines and charity guidelines, but they re-state the general guidelines taking into account the specific nature of debates and the style of posters frequently seen in the Eastern Catholicism forum. All debates in the Eastern Catholicism forum are held to these guidelines, which were
developed from trial and error
by Eastern Catholicism posters from diverse backgrounds.
No direct or implied
statements unless it is genuine praise.
You said...
You need to...
You don't get it.
Why don't you...
If only you...
It is you who...
You are wrong.
You misunderstood.
I'm not the one who...
Some people here...
No indication of what the other needs to do unless it is genuine praise.
You need to...
Why don't you...
If you'd only...
Those of us who have...
Use non-controversial words which have meanings everyone can agree on whenever possible.
Spend your time discussing the substance of the topic and not arguing tangents on words that instigate or inflame the other side.
Use bolds, underlines, font size increases, or other emphases very sparingly.
No hyperbole and no sarcasm in a debate.
This conversation
Every single time
this comes up...
Aren't you a saint?
Remember: your goal in a debate on the Eastern Catholicism forum is to sound like an encyclopedia robot. If you think you sound like a robot, that means you're probably discussing the topic and not each other.
Please remember that there are many people lurking who are judging your position and all those who are in your communion by your behavior alone. It does not matter what anyone else says; you should be a model of charitable dialogue. If someone else is not, please do not respond in kind. Let the moderator know and it will be handled as necessary.
CAF's General Guidelines for Posting in a Religious Discussion
Always abide by the
forum rules
Civility and a respect for each other should be foremost.
Posters are expected to treat each other as equals with equal expectations of each other in terms of research, logic, challenges, and portrayal of Catholic teaching.
Questions are a better approach than assertions, unless the latter are framed in a non-confrontational and non-accusatory manner.
Don't answer a question with a question. If you don't know the answer, say so.
Rhetorical questions may be used to introduce a new aspect of inquiry but not to evade challenges or to call into question the intelligence, education, or any other personal qualities of another poster.
It is acceptable to question policies and practices.
It is never acceptable to question the sincerity of an individual's beliefs.
It is never acceptable to assume or say you know what another person thinks or needs.
If you aren't going to go into the discussion with the resolution that you could just possibly have your view broadened, you may as well not go into it.
Terms of derision, derogatory remarks, baiting, and inflammatory statements are prohibited.
Avoid categorizing people by a term which could be considered derogatory (e.g., Nazi or neocon) unless they have embraced that title. In which case, you may qualify them with the term as long as you preface it with the word "avowed." Posters are asked to use their best judgement when posting articles using such terms. Do not abbreviate terms.
Sarcasm, Making Corrections and Jumping Threads
On the use of sarcasm: Use emoticons when possible to convey your intent. A smiley-face or a wink can demonstrate that you are not intending malice. End the post on a positive note, devoid of sarcasm. A pleasant ending can act like sugar helping the medicine go down. Think of sarcasm like salt. Just as you wouldn't dump a shakerful on your food, don't dump a load of sarcasm into a post. Use it sparingly.
Don't jump threads. If you get involved in an argument in one thread, it's considered poor manners to restart the previous argument in the middle of an unrelated thread. Also, if the moderator closes a thread, consider the subject closed and do not begin it anew in another thread.
It is easy to stray from the rules in the heat of battle. Try to make corrections gently, with the assumption that no offense was meant. It usually is not. Also, keep in mind that some people are thick-skinned. What seems a vicious attack to you may seem a light-hearted spar to them.
When you agree with a part of what someone said, tell them. It doesn't hurt your position to agree with some part of an opposing argument. In fact, it lets others know that you are listening.
What to look for in your post before you press submit:
Is the post civil and charitable?
Does the post challenge those to whom it is directed or does it bash them?
And remember: always, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Guidelines for posting in religious discussions on Eastern Catholicism
Members are not allowed to be disrespectful of anyone's faith or religion, whether it is Catholicism or not
. If a member is disrespectful, he will generally be counseled first and suspended if he persists in disrespectful postings.
If the nature of an initial posting is blatantly disrespectful to any religion (e.g., "the pope is the anti-Christ" or "
is the Whore of Babylon" or "Muslims are terrorists"), suspension may be immediate and without prior counseling.
Members are free to discuss, dialogue, question, disagree with, and debate
the liturgy, theology, spirituality, discipline, culture, and history of Eastern, Oriental, and Western Catholicism.
However, all discourse must be civil and charitable.
For both Catholic and non-Catholic posters:
It is never acceptable to question the sincerity of an individual's beliefs
Bringing up historical controversies peculiar to a particular Church should be done cautiously*
It is acceptable to discuss the effect the incident had on current policy or practice.
It is acceptable to seek the truth vs. commonly-held beliefs or conventional wisdom about actual events.
It is fallacious reasoning to use embarrassing incidents to claim that they "prove" a particular Church is or was in error.
Expecting members of any Church to defend or answer for the excesses or extremism of bodies that have broken with it is a technique that has no merit and can't be defended.
*It is our observation that discussion of such past events rarely serves a useful purpose and inevitably opens a thread to posts that violate forum rules and/or the bounds of civil discourse. So, while such threads may be useful, they raise a red flag for the Moderation staff.

Re: Important Forum Information
Please keep each thread on-topic.
When you have a new topic to discuss, please look for existing threads on the same topic and post to them.
If there is not an existing thread on the topic, please start a new one in the appropriate forum instead of inserting an off-topic post into another thread. You may post a link to the new discussion in the original thread.
Please make descriptive thread titles so that all know what will be discussed inside the thread.
Thank you for your assistance!

It is becoming a problem for me when people post comments in a thread where the readers can't do anything about it, but don't write me when I can.
If a thread might belong somewhere else, people comment in the thread, and I'm not told, the thread doesn't get moved. If I then see that it needs to be moved, it looks funny to read the thread in Apologetics asking throughout if it should belong elsewhere when the elsewhere is really where it is. It can be very confusing.
The best policy is to respond to the topic of the thread if you want to, and to write me a private note explaining why you think that topic belongs on another board.
You can reach me through a PM or by clicking the red triangle in the upper right of a post.
Likewise, if you believe someone is being rude, quoting and responding to it several times before deciding to ask me to step in makes my work more difficult because I have to remove the bits and pieces of the conversation that were offensive from the rest of the thread. An increasing hostility which you've tried to address fraternally can certainly be brought to my attention.
Once the rules are clearly violated, please refrain from responding and instead bring it to my attention.
I expect charity from all posters, give all posters the benefit of the doubt that they desire to post charitably, and want to work with each person to make his or her posting time here pleasant and profitable for all. I'm not looking to pull out the wet noodles for lashings. I do not want to censure people's differences in theology, understanding of history or other points of dialogue. I want to work with you to make this a community for Eastern Catholics.
If a thread might go elsewhere, tell me! If someone is disrupting a thread and violating the rules, tell me!
I can isolate the problem, often with a simple exchange of PMs, and allow the threads to charitably continue in their proper locations.
I'm writing to a number of people about the issue, so if you receive one of these PMs in the coming days, please accept the fraternal correction gracefully. This isn't a problem with one or two people, but a norm that has become prevalent on the board. I want to remind individuals as it happens of the desired and more advantageous procedure so we we can work together from the same page. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to contact me directly. I appreciate your help!
May God Bless You Abundantly,

(i.e., not "proselytizing") theology -- East. Cath. or Non. Cath.? (or apologetics, even?)

Choosing Your Forum Wisely
We understand that there is a wide diversity of expression of theology, spirituality, and discipline between and within the Eastern, Oriental, and Western rites and churches.
Members are free to discuss, dialogue, question, disagree with, and debate the liturgy, theology, spirituality, discipline, culture, and history of Eastern, Oriental, and Western Catholicism on this forum.
However, all discourse must be civil and charitable.
Since many threads can fit under a variety of forums (e.g., a thread about priests could legitimately be placed in Church News, Moral Theology, Apologetics, Non-Catholic Religions, Eastern Catholicism, Spirituality, or Liturgy & Sacraments, depending on the context), if a thread could legitimately be placed within a particular forum, it will remain in its original forum. If it obviously belongs somewhere else (e.g., a priest thread is specifically about a current news issue), then it may be moved to a more appropriate forum.
Here are some relevant examples:
What do the Orthodox say about Fatima?
Proper Location:
Non-Catholic Religions
The topic is directed to non-Catholics and is specifically about their views
How the conversation is likely to develop based on forum location:
The Orthodox, Eastern Catholic, and Roman Catholic posters will charitably explain and defend their positions. Posters of other religions might ask questions to clarify positions which the Orthodox and Catholics might agree or disagree on. If sufficiently off-topic, new threads will be started to address side issues in the Apologetics, Spirituality, Eastern Catholicism, or Non-Catholic Religions forums.
What do the Catholic and Orthodox Churches disagree on?
Proper Location:
Apologetics, Non-Catholic Religions, or Eastern Catholicism
It is relevant to each of those forums and the placement would determine the poster's intended general audience.
How the conversation is likely to develop based on forum location:
In Apologetics, a Roman Catholic defense of the faith with apologetic material about the differences.
In Non-Catholic Religions, a discussion or debate between Orthodox and Catholic participants on historical issues.
In Eastern Catholicism, a discussion or debate between eastern and western participants on theological issues and how those affect the Catholic and Orthodox Churches.
How is the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom different from the Roman Catholic Mass?
Proper Location:
Liturgy & Sacraments, Traditional Catholicism, Eastern Catholicism, or Non-Catholic Religions
It is relevant to each of those forums and the placement would determine the poster's intended general audience.
How the conversation is likely to develop based on forum location:
In L&S, a line by line comparison of the rubrics directed mainly focusing on the Mass with tangents into theological reasons for particular rubrics.
In Traditional Catholicism, a discussion on how the extraordinary and the ordinary forms of the Mass compare and contrast with the Divine Liturgy, mainly focusing on greater symbolism in the older Mass ritual.
In Eastern Catholicism, a theological and historical explanation of how they developed and how and why they are the way they are, focused on the topic of the liturgies and not on participation or exclusion of a particular group.
In Non-Catholic Religions, a theological and historical explanation of how they developed and how and why they are the way they are, focused on finding points of commonality or debating theological differences as evidenced through the liturgies of the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches.
Pope Benedict signs historic union with Pope Shenouda
Proper Location:
Eastern Catholicism, Catholic News, Non-Catholic Religions, or Apologetics
It is relevant to each of those forums and the placement would determine the poster's intended general audience.
How the conversation is likely to develop based on forum location:
In Eastern Catholicism, discussion of the union and the implications of it from the perspective primarily of Eastern Catholics.
In Catholic News, discussion of the union and the implications of it primarily for the Roman Catholic Church.
Non-Catholic Religions, discussion of the union and the implications of it and of the history of the Coptic Church.
In Apologetics, specific apologetic questions about how the union will affect Roman Catholic theological teachings.

WARNING! Do not post to spam threads
We very much appreciate that members are reporting spam to the mod/admin staff. We depend on such reports to keep the spam situation under control. But we have also
asked members
not to post to spam threads
both here in Staff Chat and in private messages. This is because such posts, however well-intentioned, add to the mod/admin staff's burden in cleaning up the spam.
Such warnings have been ignored, and so we now must issue infractions to members who post to spam threads. We regret the necessity and wish that alternative means of getting the message across had proved successful, but this is necessary to keep the spam under control because when members post to spam threads it makes those threads more difficult to deal with. If members contribute to the spam problem, even after repeated warnings to stop, then we must move to the next step.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. God bless.

Moderation of threads in which a Catholic is doubting the faith or considering leaving the Church
Catholic Answers Forums exist for Catholics to dialogue with one another and become more knowledgeable in their faith. The Eastern Catholicism forum exists to provide a community for Eastern Catholics and to help Latin Catholics better appreciate the Church's Eastern heritage.
After much thought, the moderation and administrative staff have decided on an Eastern Catholicism forum policy not to allow discussions aimed at a particular individual who is weighing conversion because this is not an appropriate venue for resolving such problems.
While well-intentioned, any advice could, potentially, be dangerous.
There is a clear-cut risk involved in accepting, relying, or acting on the expressed opinions of those who either lack relevant professional qualifications and credentials, or whose claims to such cannot be validated. The experience or response of others in what appears to be a similar or identical set of circumstances is not an accurate measure of its applicability to someone else's situation.
People experiencing theological or spiritual problems that are affecting the well-being of their physical, mental, emotional or spiritual health should seek the counsel of their priests, confessors and/or spiritual directors who are known to them and have been entrusted with the care of their souls.
Also, CAF simply does not have sufficient moderation and administrative resources at this time to closely monitor all such threads. Catholic Answers does provide an avenue for pastoral support, Catholic answers to moral questions, and the prayers of our staff. We are open Monday thru Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM Pacific Time. The phone number is 619-387-7200.

TNO Advances Virtual Material Design in 3D Printing
Aditi Karandikar | December 23, 2015
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, has been a popular topic of discussion on the COMSOL Blog and throughout the scientific community. New initiatives have furthered the capabilities of this technology, while extending its reach in various fields of research, manufacturing, and design. With the help of COMSOL Multiphysics, researchers at the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) are investigating the promise of 3D printing in the realm of material design.Read More
Bridget Cunningham | October 13, 2014
Over the years, the size and cost of 3D printers have decreased, offering new uses for this growing technology. In response to this development, more and more teachers have begun to utilize these devices within their classrooms, helping students learn in a hands-on way.Read More
Bridget Cunningham | August 22, 2014
In a recent blog post, we discussed the growth in 3D metal printing and its impact on manufacturing. Today, we shift our focus from the industry as a whole to a particular technique that has been instrumental in the production of metal prototypes, as well as plastic, ceramic, and glass materials — even coffee. Selective laser sintering has taken the world of 3D printing by storm.Read More
Bridget Cunningham | August 7, 2014
In the past, we have discussed the importance of material selection in 3D printing and how it can affect the integrity of the final product. With advancements in technology, the industry has evolved from the production of more simple materials, like plastics, to those of greater difficulty, such as metals. Here, we take a more in-depth look at 3D metal printing and its potential to revolutionize the manufacturing process.Read More
Alexandra Foley | December 4, 2013
In the past, we've discussed a few of the extraordinary uses of 3D printing (or additive manufacturing) technology by some innovative engineers, and even printed a few of our COMSOL models. In one of our previous posts on 3D printing, we discussed some of the limitations that this technique poses from both a consumer and manufacturing stand-point — you can only print one material at a time. Now however, as was mentioned in an article in Desktop Engineering, not only […]Read More
Fanny Littmarck | July 25, 2013
From supporting research to creating custom prosthesis, what doesn't 3D printing seem to promise these days? We all know 3D printing has arrived, and the technology is already being put into practice by companies and tech-savvy consumers everywhere. It seems there's a new 3D printing success story published every day, and no matter how fascinating, it makes you wonder about the wider repercussions and limitations of 3D printing.Read More
Daniel Smith | July 11, 2013
There are many necessary steps required in order to create a superior product. Based on some initial (or existing) design, you first need to evaluate the physical characteristics of the system. Once some level of understanding of the system has been obtained, it should then be possible to refine and optimize the design based on some reasonable choice of a figure of merit for a good design. The final stage is to prototype the design, which is where 3D printing […]Read More
Daniel Smith | June 25, 2013
Quite often we get asked the question "can I 3D print my COMSOL model?" Well, as of version 4.3b, the answer is "yes!" This is because it is now possible to export geometries and meshes as STL files, which is one of the standard file formats for 3D printing. This allows for rapid prototyping of designs; there is no need to outsource parts to machine shops. It is quite remarkable that you could conceive, simulate, optimize, and prototype a design […]Read More
Fanny Littmarck | May 31, 2013
It's been almost a year since we declared 3D printing the hottest topic in manufacturing, and it hasn't cooled off yet. If anything, 3D printing has seen a recent surge in popularity. By now you've heard a lot about the technology and what you can print with it, but did you know you could print invisibility cloaks this way, too?Read More
Phil Kinnane | August 8, 2012
I have previously blogged about 3D printing and how it would be great if you could go from model to product in one step. Now it seems as though the Stereolithography (STL) file format is reaching its limits for being useful as a standard for this type of application. The printers themselves, and what they are capable of, are outstripping the abilities of the file formats to support their new capabilities. Moves are being made to develop a better file […]Read More
Fanny Littmarck | July 27, 2012
Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing as it is more widely known as, is on everybody's mind right now. Manufacturing folks, engineers, and even the general public have taken an interest in 3D printing. In other words, this is not just a fascinating phenomenon to those in the industry — additive manufacturing has been generally accepted as the next "cool" thing in manufacturing.Read More

He's right, cheating does pay and enforcement is broken.
However, he conveniently left out the fact that he, along with many of the other conference leaders, are just as much to blame for the sad state of college athletics.
Cheating pays because men like Bob Bowlsby look the other way when one of their teams breaks the rules.
Enforcement is broken because men like Bowlsby actively fight the NCAA's Infractions Committee any time it tries to govern college athletics.
The NCAA model is broken, there's no questioning that.
But it's broken because the conferences have too much power.
Bowlsby can stand on his soapbox and preach as much as he wants, but you can't ask the NCAA to police college athletics while simultaneously stripping it of its power to do so.
As much as you would like to, you can't have it both ways, Mr. Bowlsby.
As great as football is, it is solely responsible for the slow and agonizing death of the NCAA.
NCAA football has become bigger than college athletics themselves.
It's a multibillion dollar business built on the backs of student-athletes who Bowlsby routinely uses as a steppingstone to a bigger office and more exorbitant salary.
Fixing college athletics isn't something that will happen overnight. It's going to take years, maybe decades.
But it starts with the major football conferences and teams separating into their own organization.
Let's call it the NFL Development League, since that's essentially all it is anyway.
Let those conferences hash out the details of what athletes can and can't do. Let them elect a commissioner and board of directors who will police the organization.
Once football is out of the way, it becomes much easier to police college athletics.
The NCAA can survive. It can thrive in fact.
But football, like a grown child, needs to move out on its own and find its own place to live.
Once football is finally out of the house, the forgotten children – track and field, swimming, golf, wrestling, etc. – can finally grow and prosper.
The NCAA in its current form is capable of handling the task of policing those sports.
Men's basketball will have to follow football out the door, though.
But let's focus on getting football's bags packed for now.
It's had plenty of time to raid the cupboards and bleed the NCAA dry; it doesn't need any more.

A Roll of the Dice
It really was a roll of the dice–a gamble–when the Red Sox sent Dice-K out to the mound for the first time in three months. When someone rolls the dice, there are many possible outcomes, and it is almost impossible to guess which one they are going to end up with. But sometimes, when the game is on the line, you just have to take a chance and hope for the best.
10 Comments
Some teams do get sleepy at the end of Sept., but many will still fight for hone field advantage or positioning. Your Sox will have an interesting last few weeks though for sure. Hope Dice-K does well for you!
Dice-K has some comparisons to Lidge, except its still very scary when Lidge goes out on the mound, sounds like Dice-K's is over his flunks…
Outside the Phillies Looking In
I am pleased with the changes that Dice-K made when he was sent down in June. But I'm going to withhold judgment until I see him return next season – and if he shows up in shape and ready to play.
Clever title Elizabeth!
I am glad that Dice-K is doing better. BTW, is Saito-san still with the Red Sox. I have not heard anything about him.
The Redsox going into the season was thought to have good depth in pitching. But smoltz, penny and then Dice all had their troubles which took a toll on the pitching. There still good though! They are tough.. http://clevelandbaseball.mlblogs.com/
Elizabeth, awesome entry as usual :] I know Dice-K doesn't interview much on TV but I read my Japanese sports news daily and it always sounds like he's trying really hard to help out the team. In his interviews and post-game interviews, he's always concerned about his teammates and fans before ever praising himself and I really think he'll do great next season too :] xoxo http://diamondgirl55.mlblogs.com
As usual, fantastic post!
I like Dice-K. Looks like he made great changes that will make him into a different baseball player from before. Good luck to him and your Red Sox!http://hyunyoung.mlblogs.com
That is the one thing that is so wild about Dice-K.
Usually when a pitcher has been with a team for a few seasons you see a pattern in him that you can start to predict a few things.
But with him, the pattern is really sporadic at best. Apart from the injury, this season has been more of a rebuilding mode for him in confidence and his release point.
But the best thing is that he regained his stuff at this point in the season, and with some great wins down the stretch people will forget the past months and love him for his clutch performances late in the season.
Great post, you are definitely forming a nice, correlated writing style, and it works great in this format.
Keep it up, you need to replace that toad Selena Roberts @ Sports Illustrated!
Rays Renegade
I'm not so sure that the Red Sox "sacrificed" Dice-K's contract just yet. When they deal him to another franchise, then the term sacrifice may be in order. Certainly no question that Dice-K has had a rough year, but the Bosox have nurtured their investment every step of the way, sending Dice down to the minors to rehab. Dice K still has the stuff that demanded the Sox's initial monetary interests, and I agree wholeheartedly that the WBC only drained him further. I'm actually much more concerned with the drubbings that the Yankees have been dealing the Red Sox lately. We had their number at the season's outset, but they have done nothing but dominate the Sox the last couple of months. If the ALCS is Sox-Yankees, then the Sox need to make definitive adjustments to be more competitive. Great blog as always, Elizabeth. You're an excellent and insightful writer.
Three cheers for the commenter above, Elizabeth's Dad! Just wanted to stop by and say how touched I was by his comment on my blog, Elizabeth. I meant what I wrote there: you are a wonderful writer and your communications skills get better and better each time I visit. I know your goal is to be a sportswriter or broadcaster someday, and I have no doubt that you'll achieve it.

July 26, 2012 —
Wednesday evening, July 18, I played the part of a fishing buddy for young Arnon Goldberg. Arnon is trying to master the mysteries of fly fishing while attending the Trout Unlimited "Fish Camp." As is the case with all beginners, it will take a while. Arnon seems to have the proper degree of determination and inquisitiveness.
Unfortunately, the deck tonight was stacked against him before he made his first cast. Firstly. his casting was deplorable. Secondly, the leader he was using was very poorly designed. Even on those rare times when he made a half-way decent cast, his leader simply collapsed in a heap barely past the tip of his fly line. There were two trout, which for a good part of the evening rose right in front of us. However, if an angler cannot put the fly where a feeding trout can see it, no trout will be hooked. Arnon will remember for a long time the frustration he suffered that night.
The next day, both Kurt Nelson and I worked with Arnon trying to improve his casting technique. I also changed the leader on his fly line to a design that has worked well for me. Once this change was made, Arnon no longer had a problem with his leader collapsing into a heap. Arnon's chances of hooking a trout are improving.
When it became time to leave the stream, I very slowly waded back towards the bank. I had just reached ankle-deep water, when another angler came wading downstream. We exchanged a few pleasantries while I sought a place on the bank where my bum knee would allow me to crawl out of the stream. As I struggled to regain my met, the other angler said he wanted to show me a picture. He took out his digital camera and let me view a large trout lying next to his fly rod. I complimented him on the size of the fish and introduced myself to him. With a twinkle in his eye, he told me he knew who I was. Tom Brown had told him he would find me downstream. I would be the fellow wearing the cowboy hat. He then said, "I'm Bob Moase." He could have knocked me flat with a hackle feather. This was the gentleman who had won two flies from me by answering the "Clem's Quiz Questions" that had appeared in an April column. We have been pen pals ever since. Mr. Moase had learned I would be on the river tonight mentoring one of the youngsters. He decided it was time we met. What a wonderful, unexpected surprise.
That night, on the drive home, Tom mentioned he had met a very interesting fellow who was fishing a Leonard bamboo fly rod. He had been kind enough to allow me to cast it a time or two. Tom said he was staying in a small camper up on the road. The following day, on the way home from Balls Eddy, after working with Arnon, I stopped and knocked on the camper. Out popped Mr. Blair Williams. When I mentioned we both favored bamboo fly rods, a lengthy conversation ensued. Mr. Williams has a large collection of old bamboo fly rods. He does not keep them under glass. He fishes them. In no time, I had that old Leonard in my hand. This was followed by several other rods and reels, all older than I was. Now, that is quite a feat. It took only a few minutes for me to realize that I was in over my waders when discussing bamboo fly rods with Mr. Williams. He is a treasure trove of knowledge. I intend to come knocking on that trailer door again.

Yahoo! Tries to Make Good on Fantasy Flub
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - After receiving intense criticism for its fantasy football flub on Sunday, Yahoo!(YHOO) sent another apology letter Wednesday to try to mend the fences with irate users.
Here is the letter in its entirety from Ken Fuchs, Head of Yahoo! Sports:
Dear Yahoo! Fantasy Users,
As I mentioned in my earlier email, Yahoo! works hard to provide great experiences for our users every day. For you, we understand that Fantasy is a core part of your daily routine during this time of year. On Sunday we experienced technical issues which caused the Fantasy experience to be inaccessible. We're sorry. Our entire team worked tirelessly to re-establish the service - however, we had a significant outage. We know this created inconvenience and frustration for millions of our fans, and we feel we owe you an explanation.
So what happened? At Yahoo!, we have giant machines called "filers" that process a lot of the real-time data and stats for us and for you. We do millions of calculations every hour for our games, and normally our machines can handle this with no problem. Recently, we discovered a hardware issue in one of the filers that caused the other one to overload. We replaced some hardware, re-configured the setup, and did some testing. However this Sunday - at approximately 12:15 p.m. Eastern - the new configuration failed. This created an overload on storage capacity and took the Fantasy part of our site down.
We had dozens of engineers from various teams working together to try to determine the cause and fix it. One option was to fall back on another data center, but that would have meant shutting the game down and losing scoring data. We wanted to avoid that at all costs. Ultimately, we were able to move our mobile apps to a back-up data center, free up storage to get the PC version of the game working, and get the mobile apps up in a "read-only" state - meaning you could see scores and data, but you still couldn't set lineups and interact.
We spent Sunday night and most of Monday looking at dozens of potential causes. Monday afternoon, we stress-tested our system. Everything seemed to be in working order, so we turned on all our mobile app functions in time for Monday Night Football. Everything performed as expected and continues to do so. We'll have all hands on deck this coming Sunday to closely monitor performance and ensure we can respond quickly in case of any abnormal activity.
We know many of you have questions about your leagues and games, so we've also set up a FAQ here that will explain how we are going to handle various scenarios.
Finally, we know we failed you this weekend, and there's no way to fix that. As a token of our appreciation for your patience and continued support, we wanted to give something back. First, we're offering a complimentary football weekly Scouting Report for the remainder of the year. Hopefully this will help you down the stretch. The report includes weekly expert analysis, rankings and news to help you make smart decisions. Second, we are offering all our users a 20% discount for the rest the year at the Yahoo! Sports Store .

Counting Down to Christmas, Michigan Style
Christmas is a time for giving. And that's why I want to thank Jane Heller over at Confessions of a She-Fan for giving me one of the greatest gifts ever. It doesn't seem like much, just a little article from the NY Times but it provided the one thing we can't live without: Hope. Now, I still don't think that Mr. Trammell is going to make it into the Hall but if the Times says he belongs there, who am I to argue? I mean, I can't think of a single thing they've been wrong about. Well, maybe just one thing but really, it's so minor as to be insignificant.
But, maybe if Jane and the Times can give me hope here, someone can come forward and give me hope in a couple other places. For instance, since we all know that the night is darkest right before the dawn, does that mean that the Lions are about to turn the corner? At the very least, Millen is finally gone. And is it possible that the Tigers will be competitive in the AL Central this year despite their complete failure to make any significant moves so far this offseason? At least Farnsworth is gone.
I don't know, though. It's hard to base your hopes for the future on subtraction instead of addition. But as a native Michigander, I can only go with what I know. I mean, this is a state that has single-handedly destroyed its signature industry (granted, with a lot of help from the industry itself) and now sports an impressively gaudy 9.6% unemployment rate. The Lions, industrial contraction and negative job creation? Well, at least we still have the Red Wings.

Allen – close your eyes, click your heels twice and say "there's no place like home." There will always be next season for the Lions (Did like the article on Yahoo Sports today about Detroit – http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=AsCWCiFYHE_lPODqIK6iJvVDubYF?slug=dw-embarrassingdetroit122108&prov=yhoo&type=lgns)
and maybe the New York Times will get something right!
Go Red Wings!
At least the Detroit octopus trade industry is thriving! All while most Canadians that don't care about any other sport weep. Except people in Windsor, if you can even call them Canadian.
Do they even play hockey in Canada anymore? I mean, they have teams in San Jose, CA and Columbus, OH for pete's sake.
My tears of joy are blurring my vision as I write this, Allen. The very notion that I've given you an "It's a wonderful life" moment is something I'll treasure forever. Somewhere Celine Dion is singing about us.
The Times can be insparational, and so can janes blog. That seemed intense.

touche. Hockey would do far better in places like my hometown Hamilton, Ontario than in Miami or Nashville. It is a big debate up here, people think Gary Bettman has a grudge against Canada. The owner of RIM (blackberry phones) is loaded, and he has been wanting to buy a team for years, to put it in Canada. For some reason he always catches a snag. At least the World Juniors is coming up, hope someone knows what I'm talking about.

Yes America, the White Sox are Alive and Well
It's been a terrific month for White Sox Nation. Just a couple of weeks after President Obama showed his Sox Pride by wearing his favorite team's jacket in full view of the world at the All-Star Game in St. Louis, Mark Buehrle forced the national sports media to recognize the Pale Hose once again with his perfect game this afternoon.

That would have been great to be at the game wouldn't it? What an amazing game it was to watch. Mark was amazing. Let's go White Sox! Tied for 1st in the AL Central going into Detroit! This is a big series. Let's keep the momentum going.

In large part due to its warm, sunny climate and relatively low cost of living, Arizona has been a retirement mecca for generations. In fact, the very first age-restricted community--Sun City--was built here in the 1960s. That concept has most fully flowered on the other side of the country, in Florida; yet Arizona can lay first claim to the concept, and many people still prefer the dry climate of the desert state.
There are three major population centers in Arizona: Tucson in the south; the gigantic Phoenix metropolitan area in the south-central region; and Flagstaff in the north-central region. Arizona's far northern region is vast and largely empty, consisting of widely-separated small settlements and large tracts of national parks, monuments, and recreation areas. It is also home to some of the largest Indian reservations in the country.

Expert Q & A Answers About gonorrhea of the throat
Could my vaginal discharge have caused my partner's throat infection after he gave me oral sex?
Since as long as I can remember, I've always had some light, vaginal discharge. A few weeks ago, my boyfriend performed oral sex on me for the first time. A week later, he had a high fever and his doctor diagnosed him with a "throat infection" (not strep). Did my discharge cause this infection and is it an STD?
