Why Marry in the Catholic Church?
If you're thinking about getting married, you're probably also thinking about where to have the ceremony. John Bosio, author of three books on marriage, explains why marrying in the Catholic Church can have a positive impact on the rest of your married life.
The Fruit Is Ripening
Teaching children to behave at Mass is just the start, writes Stacey. The new challenge, she says, is "focusing in on what is being read and spoken and making some connections with it."
Married Saint of the Month: St. Gianna Molla
Our Married Saint of the Month series continues with a 20th century model of holiness. St. Gianna Molla, a doctor and mother of four, made a parent's ultimate sacrifice: giving up her life for the life of her child.
Married Saint of the Month: Blessed Peter To Rot
This month our series on married saints features Blessed Peter To Rot, a lay catechist who ministered during the Japanese invasion of Papua New Guinea.
Raising Gus in the Faith
Sara and Justin are experiencing a common dilemma of parents with small children: How to get something out of Mass while tending to a fussy baby. On Ash Wednesday, Sara realizes why it's important to take Gus to Mass.
Observing Lent? Try a Team Approach
Lent has begun! This year, consider approaching this holy season as a "marriage team." You and your spouse don't have to give up–or do–the same things, but you can actively support each other. Here are some ideas.
"Love and Life" Retreat Day Six: Marriage is a Journey of Human and Spiritual Growth
Breaking Open the Theme Each stage of marriage has its own joys and sorrows, opportunities and challenges. When understood in the light of Christ's own journey, they can contribute to human growth and spiritual maturity. That is, a couple grows in holiness by journeying with Christ through the mystery of His life, death and Resurrection. […]
"Love and Life" Retreat Day Three: Marriage is a Communion of Love and Life
Breaking Open the Theme In creating man and woman for each other, God made marriage to be love-giving and life-giving. We call these two purposes or "ends" of marriage the unitive and the procreative. They are inseparably connected and are ordered to each other. The two purposes cannot be separated "without altering the couple's spiritual […]
"Love and Life" Retreat Day Two: Marriage is the Unique Union of a Man and a Woman
Breaking Open the Theme In the beginning, says Sacred Scripture, God created man and woman in his image, "male and female He created them" (Gn 1:27). In His wisdom, God planned that man and woman would be made "for each other": "they are equal as persons…and complementary as masculine and feminine" (Catechism of the Catholic […]
"Love and Life" Retreat Day Seven: Marriage is a School of Love and Gratitude
Breaking Open the Theme As Adam recognized Eve as God's gift to him, likewise spouses should recognize each other as God's gift in their lives. Through life's journey, sometime a husband or wife may need to reflect on the gift of the other, especially when misunderstandings or difficulties arise. To remember how this person came […]
"Love and Life" Retreat Day One: Marriage is a Blessing and a Gift
Breaking Open the Theme "Among the many blessings that God has showered upon us in Christ is the blessing of marriage, a gift bestowed by the Creator from the creation of the human race" (USCCB, Marriage: Love and Life in the Divine Plan, p. 1). The vocation to marriage is inscribed in the very nature […]
"Love and Life" Retreat Day Four: Marriage is a Sacrament of Christ's Love
Breaking Open the Theme Jesus heals marriage and restores it to its original purity of permanent self-giving in one flesh. But the Lord does not stop there. Christ generously invites husband and wife to participate in His spousal love for his Church. Christian spouses are invited to model their love on God's inner life and […]
"Love and Life" Retreat Day Five: Marriage is the Foundation of the Family and Society
Breaking Open the Theme The early Church understood the Christian family as an ecclesia domestica, or domestic Church. This idea recognizes that the smallest expression of the Church is not the parish, but the Christian family. The family, our first community, is the basic way God gathers us and forms us. Christian families not only […]
Married Saint of the Month: Blessed Giuseppe Tovini
Not every saint exudes great charisma or accomplishes heroic works. Blessed Giuseppe Tovini achieved sanctity by fulfilling the ordinary duties of husband, father and citizen.
Why Doesn't Everyone View Adoption as a Pro-Life Option?
"One of the greatest challenges before us is to change women's perception of adoption as being a bad choice," Cardinal Sean O'Malley of Boston said recently in a homily during the National Prayer Vigil for Life.
What Unites and Divides America's Parents
A three-year study of families conducted by the University of Virginia's Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture reveals some of the similarities and differences among America's parents today.
Married Saint of the Month: Elizabeth Ann Seton
This year, as part of Catholic 101, we begin a new series called "Married Saint of the Month." We'll feature a man or woman who responded to God's call to holiness through the vocation of marriage. Our series begins with Elizabeth Ann Seton, the first American-born canonized saint.
The New Year
Fr. Rice writes: "It seems odd that we haven't had better success with a Christian celebration for the New Year. It's a time that is ripe for introspection and personal renewal, out with the old year, and in with the new."
Peacemakers, Born and Raised in Families
The family has a vital role in fostering peace according to Pope Benedict XVI in his message for the Jan. 1, 2013, World Day of Peace.
Celebrating Christmas in Cyberspace, But at Home Too
In this Christmas season, many people may give or receive smartphones or other technology that can access the new social media. Social networking can be a wonderful way means of keeping in touch and reaching out to others, but it has a shadow side. How can we remain present to those who are part of our daily life?
For Synod, Families Are Evangelization's Natural Home
In its concluding "Message to the People of God," the October world Synod of Bishops underscored the role of the church's married couples and families in the new evangelization. The Synod's message also addressed the role of grandparents in the family and the pastoral needs of divorced and remarried Catholics.
Do Wedding Rings Have Any Real Meaning?
In popular culture, a wedding ring's significance would probably be that it conveys that a person already is married. Do wedding rings have more meaning for Catholics?
Discerning the Will of God: An Ignatian Guide to Christian Decision Making
Here's a book for anyone who faces important decisions, whether related to marriage and family or not. The author explains how to discern God's will when we are faced with two good possibilities.
Bishops See Families as Agents of Evangelization
As the Synod of Bishops continues in Rome, many emphasized the role of married couples and families in the new evangelization. They are not just the recipients but the agents of evangelization.
What is a Synod?
This month representatives of the world's Catholic bishops are meeting in Rome to discuss the New Evangelization. The meeting is called a synod, and it's an important event in the life of the Church.

Was easy to make and ingredients are all to hand but it wasnt all that great. The base was strange for a pizza, far too brittle and as someone else said - more like a quiche! Would not make again as there are so many other better recipes on this site with not much more effort required. (We did eat it all though so not a complete disaster!)
My 15 yr old daughter and her friend just made themselves this for dinner - easy easy easy!!
I made the tom-base-sauce for them and they did the rest, it did need a llittle more water/oil than stated but the end result was delicious-so they told me as there wasn't any left for me to try!!!
I'm going to make this again for me and my little ones - no teens alowed!
This recipe was delicious and filling, we shared it between two of us and although it left us full we felt it probably would have struggled to serve four people (we might just be greedy though). We struggled a little with the base and found it required more water/oil but that may have just been our inexperience at cooking. Overall a really nice meal that leaves a comfortable and satisfied stomach.
Noted the previous comments so I made the dough with less flour than the recipe asked for, a little more oil and a little more water and was still able to roll out the dough quite thinly. It just might be my kitchen equipment, but I needed slightly longer cooking times for both the dough and the roast vegetables.
Also used a mixture of 50g gruyere and 50g cheddar cheese because we love cheese but I guess you lose the "low fat " aspect of the original recipe!
Pizza came out perfectly,none left on my family's plates, but was just enough for 3 people. Will definitely make again-a great base recipe which lends itself to individual tweaking.
I tried this last night and the result was delicious however, I did find that I couldn't get the dough base to work and as I'd never made dough before (I'm a novice cook) it required rescuing by my partner who added a few tbsp more of oil and water to make it work.
I expect an experienced cook would make the base from their head rather than following the recipe to the letter but I'd recommend adding more than the recipe states.
Can I just say that surely if you didn't make this recipe, you can't give it one stars just because it 'doesn't look nice so the kids won't eat it?' I don't have any objections to leaving a comment like that, just don't rate the recipe at the same time!
Personally, I found it extremly delicious, although vegetables like the ones shown are my favourite pizza topping anyway.

Just say no to Crack
Staking out the high moral ground, a bill would punish those wearing low-riding jeans. It seems that Representative Derrick D. T. Shepherd of Louisiana, a Democrat no less, wants to outlaw low slung pants. Plumbers beware, and stock up on Butt-Crack Caulk! Really, don't they have anything better to legislate besides fashion or holidays?
The Agenda Laid Bare
Culture War a-brewin'...git yer ammo here. As territory is staked out in this nascent national struggle, the Independent Gay Forum has a number of articles that provide a more-than-cursory glimpse of the manner in which one side hopes to frame the debate, and a likely response to the frames already in place. Especially notable is John Corvin's Homosexuality and Morality. It appears as if the newest round of the culture wars may be unique in that two sides will be fighting them.
Sex Crimes!
Perversion for Profit linking pornography to the Communism Citizens for Decent Literature: Sex Bad, violence Good! I just thought this would be cool to revisit in light of the Mel Gibson, Orson Scott Card Debates. Intersting what They shppw as to show you what YOU should not be looking at. Maybe (NSFW, maybe just NSF-Sanity)
Examining Bush's stem cell policy, two years later.
Examining Bush's stem cell policy, two years later. Kinsley: Put it all together, and the stem cells that can squeeze through Bush's loopholes are far less promising than they seemed two years ago, while the general promise of embryonic stem cells burns brighter than ever. If you claim to have made an anguished moral decision, and the factual basis for that decision turns out to be faulty, you ought to reconsider or your claim to moral anguish looks phony. But Bush's moral anguish was suspect from the beginning, because the policy it produced makes no sense.
When the marines fail, send in the grouch...
American values brought to you by the letters... In the Islamic world the USA doesn't appear to be making too many friends recently. But is it all a big misunderstanding? Perhaps the middle east simply need to learn more about American values. Who can teach them about American culture, morality, and cookies? You'd be surprised...
SCOTUS goes gay
Supreme Court wisely rules that you can't legislate morality and that privacy between consenting adults is a-ok as the Texas sodomy law (that applies to homosexuals only) is struck down. Ruling invalidates other remaining sodomy laws on the books. Dancing in the streets ensues. And as usual, Scalia gets to add his wisecracks in the dissent. [via SCOTUSblog]
christian terrorist
is eric rudolph a christian terrorist? via atrios and who are these christian identity people?: "We declare and will wage total war on the ungodly communist regime in New York and your legaslative bureaucratic lackey's in Washington. It is you who are responsible and preside over the murder of children and issue the policy of ungodly preversion thats destroying our people," - sound familiar?
... but don't
Bill Bennett apparently has plenty of extra time (and cash) on hand in light of his success preaching morality and virtue. "I've gambled all my life and it's never been a moral issue with me. I liked church bingo when I was growing up ..."
Man on Dog Action
I am happy to see that the GOP is expanding their reach to the more eclectic fringes of society. Although it may freak some other people out.
room 101
A crackdown in Texas. America - land of the free. And to guarantee that freedom, everyone has to be constantly watchful. Like the photo store clerk from Eckerd who dutifully reported a Peruvian-born couple's lewd shots of their infants to the Richardson (Dallas/Texas suburbs) police. The photos showed the parents' two infants bathing naked, lying together in bed with their mother (again naked) and the 1-year-old Rodrigo suckling his mother's (naked) breast. So the couple was arrested -- the maximum prison sentence for the crime in question being 20 years -- and the children taken away. (verbatim k5)
Emotions and ethics
"The study of feelings, once the province of psychology, is now spreading to history, literature, and other fields." Scholarship on the emotions is a rich field for historians and philosophers. Martha Nussbaum (previously discussed here) has written on historical views of the relationship between morality and emotion, and delves more deeply into it in her recent book, Upheavals of Thought: The Intelligence of Emotions. Of particular relevance these days may be M.F. Burnyeat's new book, Restraining Rage: The Ideology of Anger Control in Classical Antiquity, which focuses on Classical views of anger and its proper place in human action. Many today could learn from Marcus Aurelius: "as grief is a mark of weakness, so is anger, for both have been wounded and have surrendered to the wound." [First link via Ye Olde Phart.]
Working against evolution?
In an article called "The Sociobiological Conceit", Gene Callahan says darwinism is logically flawed and inherently self-contradictory: "if moral ideas are simply an 'illusion' fostered on us by our genes then so are all of our other ideas – including the ideas of sociobiology!". Callahan, fyi, belongs to the ultra-libertarian circles of the Mises Institute and LewRockwell. Would any of the evolutionists among us care to politely refute him?

When religious institutions fail to provide moral leadership, when governmental institutions become dangerous to the nation they are tasked to serve, when politicians do not work for the people, or when they tremble at the possibility that standing alone in righteousness might cost them votes, when journalism becomes one long commercial, when votes are brokered against the party affiliation of a majority of powerful judges, it becomes necessary for the singular multitude that is the American people to stand and be counted.

J.K. Galbraith shocked at scale of corporate failures.
J.K. Galbraith shocked at scale of corporate failures. "I can only say I hadn't expected to see this problem on anything like the magnitude of the last few months – the separation of ownership from management, the monopolisation of control by irresponsible personal money-makers." Myself and chrispy came to the same conclusion on the drive home from the resolutely un- (rather than anti-) corporate Glastonbury Festival today. Profit is valued and rewarded by the vast majority of corporations above all else. As a consquence, people with the same values dominate executive positions, to the exclusion of those with more 'humanitarian' or longer-term outlooks. Where is the balance? Should we make hippie non-exec directors compulsory? Or should I just go back to bed and let the drugs wear off???
Even if it works, using the detah penalty as deterrent is morally flawed
Even if it works, using the detah penalty as deterrent is morally flawed The mere fact that an orthodontist in Cleveland feels more anxious about crime shouldn't make the state more "right" to take a life. And, if you are in favor of the death penalty, the mere fact that the same orthodontist feels comfortable leaving his door unlocked shouldn't mean that a murderer should pay less of a price for killing a child.
Merchants of Morality
Merchants of Morality Which global injustices gain your sympathy, attention, and money? Rarely the most deserving. For every Tibetan monk or Central American indigenous activist you see on the evening news, countless other worthy causes languish in obscurity. The groups that reach the global limelight often do so at dear cost—by distorting their principles and alienating their constituencies for the sake of appealing to self-interested donors in rich nations.
Harmful to Minors
Harmful to Minors In the introduction to her book she writes that " 'Harmful to Minors' launches from two negatives: Sex is not ipso facto harmful to minors; and America's drive to protect kids from sex is protecting them from nothing. Instead, often it is harming them." Is she right, some think she is just evil.
Convict Heart Transplant
Convict Heart Transplant A 31 year old 2 time felon just got a heart transplant, costing tax payers close to $1 million dollars. With an annual additional cost of $15,000. Right? Wrong? I'm not so sure.
On Americans and their Morals.
On Americans and their Morals. A look at the demise of morality in America and our history as a country and a culture to always complain that our moral fabric is worse than it really is.
The Morality Police.
The Morality Police. "Our hysterical attempts to shield kids from images of sex and violence are stunting young lives -- and trapping us all in a Big Lie." A well-argued piece, more of an op-ed than a straight-up book review. As a scientist I only quibble with the author's musing that "if there really were a cause-and-effect link between real violence and media violence, then it would have been proven by now."
Damn Supreme Court. Just when you thought this was a free country, now they're telling strippers to keep their G-strings on.
Jon Carroll has a few ideas on the Culture War in this SFGate article from June. He's right, of course.

Performance Plus Platinum Vacuum with QuickDraw On-Board Tools
Details http://shop.panasonic.com/support-only/MC-V5261.html
Features Performance Plus Platinum Upright Vacuum with TriForce 8482; System, Motor Protection System, QuickDraw On-Board Tools and HEPA Filter
| Powerful TriForce 174; Motor Makes Cleaning a Breeze
Panasonic's Performance Plus Platinum line of vacuums feature the advanced TriForce 174; system, which combines a three-stage, 12-amp motor with a twin-fan system and a triple-brush agitator. This sophisticated system also uses the specifically designed Air Maxx Infuser and a sound suppression system, resulting in remarkably high airflow and sealed suction, quiet operation, and superb cleaning power.

The entire Performance Plus Platinum line is equipped with the HEPA Media Filtration System, an invaluable feature for those who suffer from allergies or asthma.
More Features for More Cleaning Power
With Auto Carpet Height Adjustment, the vacuum automatically adjusts to the proper setting for just about any carpet height. All that dust and dirt hiding in dark corners doesn't stand a chance with the vacuum's bright headlight. The Performance Indicator, conveniently located on the body of the vacuum, lets you know when to change the bag for efficient cleaning performance. And on-board QuickDraw tools like a 12 189;-foot extension wand make those hard-to-reach spots easier to clean.

2 turns for a 9+.. judges missed.. just when you thought they were getting it together
In the third frame it looks like Kai Otton might have dropped in on someone. This is an illusion. Actually the guy on the right is Dayne Reynolds having just launched a quadruple switchfoot alley oop at Rincoln. He launched a little too far- an embarrassing mistake… and landed co-incidentally on this right at Bells.
Did i mention that he grazed his head on the sun, hence the minor bald patch that doesn't normally exist? The wax on his board melted, but he still landed it.


text: I would really appreciate any advice the moms on this board can give me. My first child is due on Feb. 17th and I have to take my state's bar exam on Feb. 27th & 28th (2 weeks later)! The exams will last all day for two days. I would really like to breastfeed, but I am worried about leaving a hungry, screaming baby with a caregiver during the exam. Just the thought of leaving a famished and hysterical baby for 8 hours makes me cringe! Is there a way to keep my baby fed and happy, while I take the exam?

Data Standards Endorsement of the Child Support and Court/Judicial Message Exchange Data Model
DATE: October 23, 2008
RE: Data Standards Endorsement of the Child Support and Court/Judicial Message Exchange Data Model
Dear Colleague:
The Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) is pleased to announce the endorsement of the Child Support and Court/Judicial Message Exchange Data Model by the Data Standards Oversight Board (DSOB) on September 25, 2008. This endorsement provides data standards for the Child Support community to facilitate an automated data exchange with the courts/judiciary. Automating the data exchange will result in consistent data which will speed up the execution of child support orders allowing more time to increase the services to families. While this exchange is not mandated, we highly recommend this since it meets the business needs to provide a common structure for automated exchange of information and documents between participating child support enforcement (CSE) agencies and courts. The endorsement of this model by the Conference of Chief Justices within the National Center for State Courts will be final on October 31, 2008.
The electronic exchange of data between the courts and CSE agencies can improve child support collections and services for children and families. The advantages of automation include:
- Increased Collections – Quicker delivery of child support orders as well as quicker child support order establishments and enforcement actions lead to timelier initiation of collections.
- Improved Access to Current Case Information – Alleviates the need for staff (caseworkers, court staff, process servers, attorneys, etc.) to call, fax, or email requests for current case information.
- Faster Case Intake/Potential for Automated Case Initiation – Reduces data entry time per case and staff time dedicated to data entry.
- Paper Reduction – Achieves dollar savings in paper, postage, storage, courier, etc. as well as minimizes the staff burden of archiving records and destroying archived records according to State regulations for both child support and judicial entities.
- Error Reduction – Single entry for electronic exchange reduces the opportunity for keystroke error and thus decreases the time spent by child support and judicial/legal agency staff correcting data entry errors.
This journey started on August 9, 2001 with OCSE sponsoring the National Judicial-Child Support Task Force as part of our continued focus on child support/judicial collaboration. One initiative of the Task Force was to improve electronic data exchange between State CSE agencies and courts. DCL-08-01 provides business case templates to support the States and courts in their electronic exchange of information.
At the same time, OCSE in collaboration with the National Center for State Courts worked to develop uniform electronic data exchange standards for use between State CSE agencies and courts. The original XML Specifications were published on February 22, 2002 and the project reflects the continued focus of OCSE on using technologies to improve child support collections for children. This project is in-line with Strategy 6 in the OCSE FY2005-2009 Strategic Plan to "Use specific collaboration protocols with other agencies that serve our clients, emphasizing timely, accurate data exchange." OCSE's strategy for achieving this included standardization, increased support for data sharing across jurisdictions and developing an effective communication model between CSE agencies and courts. This approach was supported by the courts through the passing of a resolution by the Conference of Chief Justices stating that standards should be used nationally unless there is a compelling reason not to do so.
The new data standards were developed through integration of the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) and CSE standards. NIEM is a culmination of the Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM) and Legal XML, which were pioneer efforts at an exchange model. It is also a continuation of the work started in 2003 to automate the exchange of court data. Georgia, New York and California have adopted these earlier efforts with cutting edge initiatives mostly on the e-filing side for petitions. The good news is that NIEM is consistent with these earlier standards. As States start to think about moving beyond the filing aspect, we recommend using this exchange model for future data exchanges, such as responses from the courts. A proof of concept using these standards is under development by Colorado, which will provide the courts and CSE communities with valuable insight to the implementation of the data exchanges.

Chapter 11: Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly
Who'd have thought there was an entire dungeon's worth of passages inside this whale's giant belly? Better start looking for that Princess…
- Track down Princess Ruto.
- Recover the Boomerang.
- Clear the intestinal tract of Parasitic Tentacles.
- Defeat the Big Octo.
- Eliminate Barinade to put an end to the disease plaguing Jabu-Jabu.
Important Obtainables:
New Enemies:
1 - Track down Princess Ruto.
You'll begin inside Jabu-Jabu's mouth. Octoroks will hop out of the water directly in front of you, and the weird hurt bubbles known as Shabom bounce aimlessly about the room. The "door" to the next "room" is blocked by some organic matter, but if you look on the ceiling you'll see a small yellow "switch" that you can shoot with your Slingshot to unseal the door.
In the next room, you'll walk along the edge of a deep pit. You can get back up if you fall down, but you should probably avoid having to do so. Electrified jellyfish known as Biri float around here. You can beat them in a number of ways, but you don't have to, so just press on for now.
Through the next door you'll run into Princess Ruto in a room full of strange holes. She'll get huffy when you say you're there to rescue her and turn right around into one of the pits. Follow her down and keep talking to her and eventually you'll convince her to come with you, but there's a catch - you have to carry her around.
2 - Recover the Boomerang.
Pick Ruto up and carry her through the nearby door into the next room. Here you'll find a deep gap separating you from the passage on the other side of the chamber. Drop down into the gap and toss Ruto onto the opposite side. Stingers will rise up from the water and attack you, so defeat or avoid them and then step on the yellow floor switch to raise the water level so you can swim over to her. (You can also pick up Skulltula Token 31 while you're here.)
Once you've reunited with Ruto, hit the ceiling switch either with your Slingshot or by tossing Ruto into it in order to open the next door and proceed. You'll emerge in a water-filled room - an Octorok will hop out to shoot at you, so either avoid its rocks or repel them. There's a passage you can dive into down below (don't try to take Ruto with you, though) that leads to naught but a Business Scrub who will sell you something inconsequential for an absurdly high price (as usual!).
Wait awhile back at the entrance to the room and an elevator of sorts will come down to meet you. Hop on with Ruto in tow and ride it back up to the top floor. Proceed back through the north door again, this time crossing the hole-filled room and entering the door on the other side. Look out for the giant Bari that falls from the ceiling as you pass! Also make note of the pulsing green tentacle blocking one of the holes here.
This passage leads to Jabu-Jabu's intestinal tract. Most of the passages are blocked by more of those strange tentacles and guarded by Tailpasaran, but there's one to the far east that's clear. Unfortunately, the door's been sealed shut, but if you step on the nearby switch it'll open right up. You can't hold down the switch with your weight alone, so make sure you're carrying Ruto when you hop onto it.
In this next room, defeat the various enemies - Stingers and Shaboms - and a chest will materialize containing the Boomerang!
3 - Clear the intestinal tract of Parasitic Tentacles.
Return to the intestinal tract and make a beeline over to the far west passage. There's a blue switch here - what do you suppose that means? It's one of those pressure-sensitive ones that needs to be held down constantly. You'll have to use Ruto to weigh it down. She won't like getting left behind but sometimes you have to do what is necessary and grin and bear the consequences.
Here you'll run into a Parasitic Tentacle, the long end of one of those weird appendages you saw earlier blocking certain parts of the intestines. You need to use the Boomerang to defeat it - target it to zero in on its weaker midsection and let fly. In order to get in a good hit you have to be close enough to the tentacle that it dangles low to the ground. Beware its attacks - they can pack quite a wallop and send you flying across the room if you're not careful. Once it's defeated it'll leave behind a chest containing the Dungeon Map.
It'll also clear one of the previously-blocked passages, so return to the intestinal tract and pick up Ruto to bring her down the newly-cleared routes. The first passage on your left leads to a room where you have to fight your way past some enemies within a certain time limit to earn the Compass. The middle passage is still sealed for now, but the door down the hallway immediately to the east of it leads to another Parasitic Tentacle that when defeated will clear the way for you. Head down that hall to face the final tentacle, which will remove the blockage back in the hole-filled room.
4 Defeat the Big Octo.
Now that all the tentacles have been dealt with, return to the hole-filled room and fall down the hole that was previously blocked off. It's the northmost hole, the second one on your right if you enter from the intestinal tract. You'll land on top of a ledge with access to a west passage. From here you can also use your Boomerang to nab Skulltula Tokens 32 & 33.
Inside the west passage, you'll find…the Zora's Sapphire? Turns out Ruto lost it once when she was visiting Jabu-Jabu's Belly and came looking for it only to find that Jabu-Jabu was sick. Toss her onto the platform so she can get it back - maybe she'll let you borrow it for awhile?
Turns out the discovery is about to get cut short - the platform will rise up to the upper floor, and Ruto will apparently be subdued by some giant monster. It's the Big Octo, and it will drop back down to your floor and attack you. It's a relatively long battle - your first real mini-boss encounter - but if you keep on your toes you should survive.
5 - Eliminate Barinade to put an end to the disease plaguing Jabu-Jabu.
Step on the large platform and it will rise up to the higher level. From there, enter the door to reach a room with some weird jelly-like appendages that wiggle around when you get close. You can stun them with the Boomerang to turn them into makeshift platforms so that you can jump over to the next room. It requires careful coordination and timing to make sure you stun them all at once, so try to hit one right after the other to give yourself a solid window during which to leap across the chamber.
You'll emerge at the top of the tall shaft in the entryway to the dungeon. Leap across to the ledge on the opposite side of the room and it will slide down and settle into place, creating a way to the door at the south side of the room. There's a blue switch here that you need to hold down to enter, and without Ruto at your side you'll need something else. Fortunately, Jabu-Jabu seems to have swallowed some crates that you can make good use of.
In the next room, defeat or avoid the enemies and climb the "vines" up to the top of the ledge (grab Skulltula Token 34 from the far side while you're at it). There's a ceiling switch nestled on the other side of a web-like barrier. It'll be tricky to hit, but if you L-target it and stand at a good distance from the barrier you can toss the Boomerang and it'll travel in an arc and hit the switch. This opens a door leading to the boss's chamber.
At first, Barinade is linked to the chamber's ceiling via a set of parasitic tentacles, rather like the ones y you faced earlier. L-target them and take them out with your Boomerang to detach it from the ceiling. If you take too long, it'll shoot lightning your way, but if you keep moving you'll dodge its attacks pretty easily.
Once you've severed the tentacles, it'll send out a swarm of five Bari which spin in a circle around it. They're connected to the main body via electric currents, so you can't get too close - use your Boomerang to defeat the Bari one at a time. After you defeat these first five Bari, Barinade will start moving around the room, guarded by another set of five Bari. It will start shooting lightning at you more aggressively now and you need to keep on your toes to avoid getting shocked.
Take out these five Bari and the creature's central core will be exposed. Chase it around the room and try to hit its body with your Boomerang to stun it, then close in and strike it repeatedly with your sword. After a couple rounds Barinade will burst and Jabu-Jabu's curse will be lifted. Princess Ruto will appear and the two of you can warp out of the dungeon together. She'll give you the prize - Zora's Sapphire - as thanks for rescuing her.

No bar open
Front desk location signage was difficult to find. It made the customer frustrated if not familiar with the area and setting with other businesses.
We loved its proximity to the beach and restaurants and appreciated that we could store our luggage while we were at the beach after check-out. The high-floor king sea view room was large and I think all sea view rooms must have an amazing view. The bathroom and products were also nice.
It was a little pricey already excluding breakfast, and the price for breakfast high. Our room was a "smoking" room that fortunately didn't smell of smoke - I was told they were all smoking, but the floors said "no smoking" so not sure. There was an ashtray in the room. When I told the staff I'm allergic to smoke after accidentally booking a "smoking" room, I was told they had noted it - so perhaps they took care.
Good location and friendly staff. Parking is free for guests.
I was disappointed and disgusted to see stains of discharges on the toilet bowl from the previous guests. I cleaned them up myself. Obviously, cleaning wasn't done thoroughly.
Location, Minimal, Simple
No bar/room service nor any mentions regarding its absence
Everything you could ask for from a 5-star hotel! The start and finish to their service was amazing! Would love to come back!
The hotel staff were poor in English. There was one night a certain VIP was holding a birthday party in the hotel room, bunch of people outside, girls screaming until 11 p.m. and the hotel told me they could not do anything to stop them!
The room was very nice, especially the living room/kitchen area
The bed was very hard and the shower leaked
The location was close to the beach and close to cheap eats.
This is not a four star hotel. I felt like a bait and switch situation. It is a two and half star extended stay condo. The beds are extra firm-felt like I was sleeping on box springs. The facility charges you for extra towels. The staff is very well rehearsed at saying no. Worst hotel of our trip. We had a red ring of mildew in our toilet. Elevators took too long in the morning.
I liked the view from my room. The setting of the hotel is amazing.
It would be nice to have hot water and cups for coffee in your room. It would also be nice if they serve something else than whiskey by the bottle and really expensive beer in the sky lounge.
the great and beautiful beach closed to the hotel!
one lift was out of order...
close to markets ..... and restaurants
It's in a good location but a bit minimalist. The staff did try to accommodate us a bit when we complained the rooms smelled of smoke.
Would have been comfortable if the non-smoking room didn't smell. We asked to change rooms and the second one was better, but not oder free.
The rooms were very spacious and clean.
The location is too far from town.
The hotel staff are friendly. The room is well-decorated with brand new LCD TV and comfortable bathroom. The hotel faces directly the sea, although the location is not the best in Busan.
The staff have limited English ability, which is not convenient.
Location is perfect (right by Gwangan beach) with it being near the beach, restaurants, cafes and shops.
The carpet seemed worn and dirty. The room looked like it was never updated since the '80s
The location is very good and just walking few minutes arrive the wonderful beach anytime. And there have shopping mall in the building, very convenient.
Value for money
Here's why:
We're not the seller.
At KAYAK we don't set the prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We compile tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we can't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find, on occasion, that certain prices are no longer available.
If you have more questions or if you have a bad price to report to us,
please send us an

Arcadia Awakens was released in the UK on March 1st and features a pretty cool cover. Here's a summary from Amazon to tell you more about the book, published by Templar:
When troubled teenager Rosa escapes her life in New York to stay with family in Sicily, she stumbles into a sinister Mafia underworld of murder, corruption and bitter, generations-old rivalries. How is handsome, mysterious stranger Alessandro involved? And why is Rosa so powerfully drawn to him, even though she knows he spells danger for her and her family? Simmering at the heart of the conflict is an ancient myth surrounding the vanished empire of Arcadia and its people, who - in the tales of legend - could shapeshift into animal form. Can Rosa unravel the dark secrets of the past before untamed savagery is unleashed on the present?
Here's a guest post from Kai to celebrate the publication!
There are three important Mafia organisations in Italy: the Cosa Nostra in Sicily, the Camorra around Naples and the `Ndrangheta in Calabria. For the background of ARCADIA AWAKENS I choose Sicily and the Cosa Nostra for several reasons. One was the ability to use a lot of very different landscapes and cities – there is everything there, from desolate hillsides with deserted villages to urban sprawls like Palermo and Catania. But the main reason was the island´s historical connection to Ancient Greece. A few thousand years ago Sicily was the biggest Greek colony in the Mediterranean region, there are hundreds of ancient ruins between Trapani in the west and Catania in the east. And because I wanted my clans of shapeshifters, the Arcadian Dynasties, to be of Greek heritage, it became quite obvious that Sicily was the ideal setting for the three ARCADIA novels.
I went over there for a week and drove all over the island. What impressed me most – apart from the great food, probably the best in all of Italy – was the geographical diversity. There are huge mountain ranges, large woods, but also those yellow-brownish hills where nobody had lived for many years.
As a foreigner you think you are discovering mafia business all the time, but of course that´s nonsense. Obviously not every Italian in a dark suit is a mafioso and there are no bodies disposed of under every unfinished concrete structure! But I had read so many books during my research about the Cosa Nostra, that I became very sensible to the smallest hint of mafia activity. And, true or not, it made research on location quite exciting.

Left-handed Writers and Fountain Pens
While there is a common perception that fountain pens are problematic for left-handers, the truth is that lefties love fountain pens. In fact, left-handers tend to own fountain pens at a higher rate than their percentage of the population might otherwise indicate.
The perception that fountain pens are problematic for left-handers probably dates from the era when many fountain pens were equipped with flexible or semi-flexible nibs, which can pose challenges for some (but not all) lefties. Most modern fountain pens, however, ship with rigid nibs that are both smoother-writing on the page and also easier for writers of all kinds, including lefties, to use.
That said, there is one significant issue facing left-handed fountain pen users - in any language such as English that is written from left to right, writers have to develop a strategy to avoid dragging the pen hand through the drying ink. Most writers do this so easily and instinctively that they don't even think about it - the photos below on this page illustrate the various writing styles utilized by left-handers.
Knowing what kind of left-handed writer you are helps John when he tunes a pen for your individual writing preferences and characteristics - with a few seemingly simple adjustments, most any pen and nib combinations can be made to work. Please consult the photos below - and if the method you use is not shown here, let us know that as well.
Michael McCarthy is an underwriter. His
writing line slopes downward at about 20 degrees. He is holding his pen at a right
angle to the writing line.He writes neutrally, neither pushing or pulling the pen.
Propas is an overwriter, sometimes called a 'hooker'. His line
rises at about 15 degrees.
He writes neutrally, neither pushing or pulling the pen.
Yu is an overwriter, holding the point of his pen toward himself and the writing
line rising at about 40 degrees. He writes neutrally, neither pushing or pulling the pen.
Avanzino is an overwriter. She writes vertically, away from herself at about 90
degrees. She pushes the nib across the page.
Pat Ackor is an underwriter. Her writing line slopes downward
at about 45 degrees. She writes neutrally, neither pushing or pulling the pen.
Jose Suro is a side-writer keeping his paper vertically in front of him. He pushes the nib almost directly across the page.
Barnett gives a slightly different twist to his side-writer style. You can see that he rotates his pen so that the imprint of the nib
is facing the top right corner of the page. He pushes the nib across the page.
Emily Eldredge is a side-writer. She is a pusher with her line
falling at about 25 degrees. She pushes the nib across the page.
Left-handed Calligraphy
By Vance Studley
Left-handers are just as likely as right-handers to practice the art of calligraphy, but virtually all calligraphy books are written literally from the right-handers' point of view. This book, by noted calligrapher and educator Vance Studley, presents an introduction to calligraphic scripts including Italic and Cursive with an emphasis on positioning and layouts that will make sense for southpaws.
References to the history of calligraphic script and the usual writing techniques of left-handers make this a fascinating book even for those not practicing calligraphy themselves. And for those lefties who are getting their first oblique or cursive italic customization made by John, this book will be invaluable. Our price $5.95*
Click here to read the review written on this book by our own, Jonella. * This book does not meet our $25.00 minimum order. Please consider another book,
other products or services in order to meet our minimum. If you want only this
book, you will be charged the $25 minimum.
Kiwaguro ink is fast drying and is good for lefties.
Sailor Kiwa-Guro Black Pigment ink and the Sei-Boku Blue/Black Pigment ink (also known as Nano inks) are now available both in cartridge and bottled ink. This is a pigment ink which has excellent water resistant qualities, quick drying, and color-fast properties. The perfect products for all official documents. $24.00 for the bottle and the cartridges are $10.00 for a pack of twelve.
An article was written for the PENnant about left-handed writers. 'Notes from
the Nib Works'
revised 6/8/04
While just over ten percent of Americans are left handed, they represent a disproportionate
number of fountain pen users (at least from the perspective of The Nib Works.)
This may at first glance seem strange, given the difficulty that they have using
fountain pens. But, on further thought, this may not be so strange. Faced with
a difficult situation, left-handers seem to push ahead and embrace the challenges
that are thrown their way... Click here to read more.

The Chemistry Program at SMC provides instruction in three areas. General Chemistry introduces principles of chemical structure and reactivity that are the foundation for all other fields of chemistry. Organic Chemistry is the study of substances that contain molecules with a carbon backbone. These are vitally important molecules as they comprise all living things. Biochemistry applies the concepts of organic chemistry to molecules and reactions that occur within living organisms. It represents the intersection of the fields of chemistry and biology.

Throwable Bricks – What is it?
This mod is self explanatory, the mod makes normal bricks throwable! We've all had this thought before, the bricks are all for blocks that are hardly used, you might have some left overs, but you have no idea what to do with them. Well now that you have this mod, you can go on a nice walk, and throw bricks at some of your friends! The bricks do quite a bit of damage, making quite lethal for the amount of bricks you could have in your inventory. It's a simple mod, but it's very fun to have. Lets move on to the features of this mod.
Brick Chunks
Brick chunks are created when you throw a brick at a certain distance. The further you throw, the higher the chance is that the brick will shatter and drop a brick chunk. A brick chunk can be recrafted into another brick and is able to be thrown again.
Windows and Glass Panes
In reality, a brick or a rock would shatter anything out of glass. Like this mod, if you throw a brick at glass, the brick will fly right through the glass and destroy it completely.
The damage dealt to mobs by throwing the bricks is 2 and a half heart, although, attacking a skeleton with a brick, the skeleton will die much quicker to make it look a bit more realistic since a skeleton is all bones, no muscle. The same goes for smaller mobs. (Chickens, baby slimes, spider, etc.)
When a brick is thrown at TNT, they have a slight chance of sparking the TNT and activating it.
Land and Plants
Due to a brick being heavy and dense, if thrown at: Tall grass, vines, dead shrubs, redstone, redstone torches, sugar canes, and crops. Another part of this feature is that if it is thrown and lands on top of tilled farmland, it till become normal dirt again.

How to Install this Mod
- Introduction
- The Steps (1.6 and up)
- The Steps (Windows)(Old-Fashioned Way)
- The Steps (Mac)(Old-Fashioned Way)
- The Steps for Forge and Modloader Mods (Old)
- Be sure to get WinRAR or 7-zip. It's a necessity for installing mods.
- Be sure to backup your "minecraft.jar" before doing anything! We don't want you to have to force update now, do we?
- Be sure to delete META-INF inside "minecraft.jar".
- Be sure to install the mods listed in the yellow box below first. They are usually mods required for the mod you want to install to work.
- The Forge and Modloader installation instructions only apply if the yellow box below states that the mod requires either Modloader of Forge. If the yellow box does not, use the "Old-Fashioned" instructions.
- The Forge and Modloader instructions only apply to the mod itself. Any mod in the yellow box below must be installed using the "old-fashioned" instructions.
In the case that you need more help, post a comment below. We will be glad to help you out!
If you need any additional support, just comment below, or on the post mentioned above! We will be glad to help out!
- Close Minecraft. This is to ensure that the files will overwrite properly.
- Open up Windows Explorer.
- In the navigation bar, type "%AppData%".
- Navigate to "Roaming". (Skip this step if you can't see a roaming folder.)
- Open up a folder called ".minecraft".
- Open up a folder called "bin".
- Right click the file called "minecraft" or "minecraft.jar".
- Select open with.
- Open with WinRAR.
- Open up the mod. (be sure to extract the mod first.)
- If there are no specific instructions included with the mod, it is safe to assume that you drag all the files in.
- Be sure to delete META-INF. I can't stress this enough.
That's it! Have fun!
Hopefully that helped you out! If not, you could post it in the comments, and we will help you!
- Install Minecraft Forge, Modloader, or any mod dependency listed in the yellow box below using the "Old-Fashioned" installation instructions to the left.
- Start Minecraft up. Close Minecraft afterwards.
- Navigate to the ".minecraft" folder. Once you open it, you will notice that there is a "mods" folder. If there isn't a mods folder to be seen, create one.
- Place the mod inside the "mods" folder.
- Open Minecraft up and have fun!
For the most part, that's it when it comes to Modloader and Forge mods. Also, please note that you no longer have to do steps 1 and 2 once you already installed it the first time (you may need to reinstall them however, if you updated your client). Also, just a heads up, if you don't see the mod loaded into the game, you might have to extract the mod into a folder. Most mods work in their zipped form, but some require you to extract them first. Have fun!

Research Overview:
We have shown that filaggrin polymorphisms in patients with eczema and also non eczema patients correlate with functional defects in the skin barrier. Atopic eczema and filaggrin independently and additively lead to these effects. Independently of the presence of eczema, filaggrin mutations lead to maturation of the antigen presenting cells of the skin. We are examining what factors in skin barrier defect lead to this activation of these sentinels of the immune system.

I love any restaurant that parades food in front of me such as dim sum, buffets and sushi trains. Jaws has the best sushi train around with a big selection of hot items, sushi and other unique dishes.
Jaws is in the Entertainment Book 2010/2011 and I saved $15 off my bill… that's at least three plates for free! mmm….
Chicken Udon $6.50
The cheapest, best value for money udon around. My boyfriend's mum use to come here just for the udon (which was only $5 back then).
The noodles are always slurping good, with some pieces of crab stick, chicken, and my favourite deep fried tempura bits which soak up the soup. Definitely my favourite item on the menu.
Vege Tempura Nigiri $3.70
The tempura vege includes carrot, potato and onions and it tasted really nice with the sushi rice.
Nigiri refers to sushi where there is an oval clump of rice down the bottom and miscellaneous ingredients on top. Cooked or uncooked.
Unagi (BBQ Eel) Nigiri $4.20
Those of you who have never tried eel, it tastes like a cross between fish and chicken. It was delicious as usual and I love that dark BBQ sauce it comes with.
Salmon Nigiri $4.20
My boyfriend's favourite dish.
Maguro (Tuna) Nigiri $4.20
What a lovely colour.
Aburi Salmon (Lightly Seared Salmon) Nigiri $4.20
My boyfriend's new favourite dish. This is the first time I've tried this and I love the burnt, charred flavour.
Salmon and Cheese Maki $4.90
You will be surprised at how well cheese goes with sushi.
Maki means roll.
Tasmania Maki $4.20
Fresh salmon with avocado toped with chilli mayonnaise.
Prawn Tempura Maki $4.20
Amazing with the japanese mayonnaise on top and the crunchy tail bit at the end is so crispy.
Terriyaki Chicken $4.20
The skin was crisp yet saucy at the same time.
Crab Balls $5.50
My second favourite item on the menu, the first being the Udon. This deep fried crab ball is made up of stringy crab stick bits and is served with chilli mayonnaise. Why must I love all deep fried items so much?
Fried Japanese Oysters $5.50
Enough said.
Calamari Rings $4.20
Golden and hot. Always a winner.
Chilli Mayonnaise $0.60
A mixture of chilli sauce and japanese mayonnaise.
Creme Brulee $4.20
Extremely smooth and delicious creme brulee! Not overly sweet with a cracking sugar layer. I almost went for another serve.
The Jaw's in East Perth in the Mint building is quite small so if you have a group of 6 or more be sure to come early to be able to sit together. They also do great takeaway packs and sashimi.

text: With the age and mileage of the car you need to look at the grounds on the frame and bell housing and in the wiring harness. Remember the codes only tell you something is not right in the signal from a circuit. That means if a wire is broken or a bad ground is there the ecm gets a false reading. Next different sensors come into play if the car is up to temp and in open or closed loop. So if the problem starts when the operating temp get to the point were it goes from open to closed loop then you need to look at the sensors that are involved at that time. The wires used for the sensors are very small and brittle and easily broken with handling. Again bad signals to the ecm and it will try to compensate to keep the engine running. As for the grounds in the wiring harness the grounds from the TPS, Water TEmp Sensor, MAF, IAC and probable a couple others come together in a common ground bundle in the wiring harness.

They were an important part of the Honolulu police department, back when female police officers were not allowed.
"It's a unique group of people and I'm honored to be permitted to be a part of it," said Sylvia Dawson, the last of the matrons who retired last month.
Dawson was in her 20's when she was hired to be a matron with the HPD.
Beginning in 1910, the role of the female police officer in Hawaii was as a matron. They were in charge of the cell block, feeding prisoners and handling arrested females and juveniles. Matrons were sworn personnel and would wear a badge, but did not carry a gun.
She was the first to put the breathalyzer to use at HPD, becoming the coordinator for the breath analysis program. By choice, Dawson spent most of her 30 years working the midnight watch. Why? Because it was the busiest.
"Basically we came up with the fact that we're adrenaline addicts," said Dawson.
But it was addicts of another kind that Dawson said she watched grow in the community. When she started, very few women were being arrested. But things changed quickly.
"This is when the beginning of when crystal meth hit the island and it was a rapid decline," said Dawson. Being a woman in a "mans world" wasn't always easy, but she has no regrets.
"When the children of the people I came in with started coming through the door in uniform, I said, 'Ok, it's time,'" said Dawson.
Today, her uniform is now a part of HPD's museum.
"Yes, I am a part of the past history of the department and I'm very proud of it," said Dawson.
In retirement, Dawson said she plans to travel, spend time with family and learn to sleep at night.
Currently, there are 220 female police officers on HPD's force.

Great sauce for technique but it was a little bland, tasted like stock and flour. I didn't have tomato paste so I added some red wine and rosemary for the last 15 mins of simmering. Added great flavor and body.
great dish
I have made MANY beef tenderloin recipes and this one is fabulous. There is only a little (1/4 cup) tomato puree in the sauce so not much tomato flavor. Perhaps the people who didn't like it used tomato paste? The sauce is just a rich brown sauce and the mushrooms were delicious. Will definitely make again.
I, too, was underwhelmed by the Espagnole sauce. It might be perfect for something else, but I feel the tomato puree in this recipe took the sauce down from a fine-dining level.
A great, simple dish to prepare for an otherwise busy day in the kitchen. Followed roasting/sitting times to a T and the meat was perfect. The sauce came out a bit on the thick side, and i used demi-glace. Would make again with a 1/2 demiglace, 1/2 stock combo and watch the flour.
I had this over at my MIL's house for Christmas Eve dinner. She told me it was very simple to make, as all she really needed to do was make the sauce the day before. That day was merely roasting, making the pan sauce, and assembly- a breeze. The sauce perfectly complemeneted the tenderloin, which was cooked to absolute, rare perfection. I enjoyed it so much that I'll be making it for my own folks, this weekend when they over to do a late holiday celebration.
This dish is great for Christmas dinner. Fast and easy to make. Although, as with most roaasted meat recipes from Gourmet, I increased the cooking time to 40 minutes, and reduced the sitting time to 10-15 minutes. The meat was still medium rare and tender. The gravy is different and a good complement.
You can't go wrong with this beef tenderloin and everyone seems to love it.
I made the beef tenderloin, potatoes and creamed spinach for dinner last night and everything was delicious. I used organic beef stock rather than homemade. It made it simpler and quicker.

PARIS (AP) — France is boosting security at Jewish and other religious sites after blanks were fired at a synagogue and police accused a suspected cell of radical Islamists of ties to a grenade attack on a kosher grocery.
President Francois Hollande sought to allay tensions between Jews and Muslims following a series of violent incidents in the country.
Hollande singled out hateful extremists for criticism and urged respect for all religions in a country that is officially secular, but which has Western Europe's largest Jewish and Muslim communities.
Hollande said authorities should show "intransigence" toward racism and anti-Semitism, warning that "Any act, any remark will be prosecuted with the greatest firmness."

LDAP client issue on SolarisWed, 07/13/2011 - 12:06 — dcwaterm.ncsu.edu
Started a workaround section today on the xteams website. First workaround added for LDAP client issues on Unix. This might help anyone after hours and oncall for Unix servers experiencing an LDAP connection problem. The issue has been observed several times on older Solaris 10 update 2. Never is it a good time for this bug (especially like recent event at 2 AM last Sunday morning). At any rate, try this workaround if warranted. Might save some of us a lot of time and avoid a full reboot. The LDAP client workaround has saved us on three occasions ov
SunOracle ILOM to ALOMTue, 06/07/2011 - 13:01 — dcwaterm.ncsu.edu
Current T3 systems use ILOM 3.0 or higher. Which no longer supports the legacy ALOM commands. That's a change some of us will have to get use to as the command syntax is very different. I found a table comparing the old and new commands that might prove helpful.

Memory shortages - or is it?Tue, 11/02/2010 - 13:06 — dcwaterm.ncsu.edu
Occasionally we receive a report of a Solaris server with a swap space shortage. Much of the time there is no problem. We get enough of these reports that I've set up a technical doc Solaris Memory Management (going beyond swap -s) on this wildly misunderstood subject of memory management and swap disk space. It's a good start on the Solaris VM subsystem. I expect this doc to be updated and broadened in time.
Migrating non-Global Solaris ZonesTue, 09/14/2010 - 19:44 — dcwaterm.ncsu.edu
If using server virtualization such as in this case of Solaris containers and zones, we find advantages provided in the tooling for migrating virtualized servers from one host to another. Traditionally, before we ever had server virtualization, the moving of servers to new or different hardware often required a lot of time and effort. However with Solaris 10 and the zone migration features, we were recently delighted in finding the move of virtualized container zones much faster and easier than expected. As long as the source and target host servers are of equal spec
Solaris Zones - Solving shared network issueTue, 04/13/2010 - 20:40 — dcwaterm.ncsu.edu
One issue with sharing NICs when more than one VLAN is defined on a Solaris host with non-global zones is routing between non-global zones for the same physical host. By default routing is direct, not across the wire, regardless if the other non-global zones are in different VLANs. Such is usually deemed a compromise, espeically when there is an intended hardware Firewall for security residing between two wired VLANS (as in our case). read more updated information
Sun E25k - Hot swapping system boards - part IIThu, 04/01/2010 - 17:03 — dcwaterm.ncsu.edu
After a domain crash on the E25k, normally the domain will restart. Such as the case earlier this week with the oradev1 domain on the DC1 E25k. Problem determination uncovered one CPU experienced a corrupted ecache location which when detected immediately causes a system panic crash. Diagnostics for root cause normally are performed in the hours well past the system recovers. In this case the system had been restarted and running 24 hours by the time of pinpointing root cause. Protocol is to replace such failing components rather than risk a recurrence.
