Linux Software RAID On Trial

Here at work, the time is fast coming where I will be required to put live, the server I've been working on for the past year.
And we all know that when the rubber meets the road, things get a little bit more serious.

Voicemail From Luci
PoeticIntensity
I was sifting through some old voicemails today, when I found this treasure. I almost deleted it when it was originally left, but I'm glad I didn't.
This will be fun to show Luci when she's older.

Jacob : 4
PoeticIntensity
This chapter is full of doctrinal nuggets.
Some things I noticed this time around which I haven't noticed before are the following:
Verses 6-8 are primarily about the importance of revelation. We are told this importance is denounced by our time's people in 2nd Nephi 28:5-6. I had never made that connection before.

Jacob 3
PoeticIntensity
I've often wondered why this chapter isn't included in chapter 2. They both seem to go on about the evils of Jacob's audience. This chapter even goes further to say that the Lamanites at this time were more righteous than the Nephites because they have only one wife, and the husbands love their wives and children. They also are wi...

Jacob 2
PoeticIntensity
I honestly hope I'm never in the position to deliver a speech as the one Jacob records in this chapter. Holy moly.
He condemns pride, people seeking after riches, and chastity breakers to a degree not many other speeches can.
I wonder if the words he wrote were the same words he used in the speech, because a lot of the metaphors he uses a...

Moment of Truth??
PoeticIntensity
Last night, I watched a recording of American Idol, and since I have the myth system set to record 10 minutes previous to the beginning of the show, I had recorded the last 10 minutes of a show called "Moment Of Truth".

As many of you know, I recently upgraded the exhaust on my 2007 Mustang GT.
Well... Tonight, I had to take it out to see what I could do. So, I went the usual route and didn't find much more than a crappy 90's Eclipse that wanted to play. After almost an hour of dragging back and forth, lady luck just didn't have it in for me tonight...

Nothing really jumped out and grabbed me for this chapter.

2nd Nephi : 33
PoeticIntensity
Verse which popped out at me this time around was verse 1.
This is probably the best illustration in all of scripture of how the Spirit works among people.
When someone speaks according to the Spirit of God, the Spirit breaks all barriers of communication and carries the message through a language agnostic medium which all hearts understand.

Jacob : 7 - Sherem

I believe that Sherem is the first "villain" of the Book of Mormon after Laman and Lemuel, who could be considered an "anti-christ". Not 100% sure, but I don't remember anything standing out in 1st or 2nd Nephi. This guy reminds me of Nehor, Korihor, and Amalickiah.
Some points of interest this time around are:

All I've gotta say is - don't get on the wrong side of God. The wrath of God shown in chapter 9 really is quite astounding.
