Makkah - Kota Paling Selamat Di Dunia

BAGI orang-yang memahami hukum fizik dan banyak mengkaji tentang kehebatan Mekah akan menemu­kan sesuatu yang baru. Penemuan itu menguatkan lagi keyakinan,Islam agama yang datang dari tuhan yang Maha Esa. Sekali gus, menjadikan diri semakin dekat kepada pencipta dan terasa kerdilnya diri di sisi tuhan.


Prof. Norhisham Wahab, Pengasas Color Vaibration Therapy yang banyak mengkaji tentang kaitan amalan haji dengan sains menjelaskan, Mekah ada­lah kawasan yang mempunyai graviti paling stabil. Boleh dikatakan ia kawasan paling selamat di dunia. Tidak keterlaluan kalau dikatakan, jika suatu hari nanti bumi mengalami kekacauan dan malapetaka, Mekah adalah bumi yang paling selamat untuk didiami.

“Itulah kawasan yang dicari-cari selama ini, di mana manusia boleh tinggal dengan selamat dan aman se­hingga berlakunya kiamat. Sebagai pusat bumi memang banyak keistime­waannya. Tekanan gravitinya tinggi, dan di situlah berpusatnya bunyi-bu­nyian yang membina yang tidak boleh didengar oleh telinga.

“Suatu masa dulu kiblat kita adalah masjid al-Aqsa dan di situlah pusat bumi ketika itu. Kemudian Allah pe­rintahkan Nabi untuk berpaling ke arah Kaabah sebagai kiblat. Dari apa yang saya pernah kaji, berlaku gempa bumi dan pergerakan lempeng bumi di tanah Arab clan menyebabkan pusat bumi berubah ke Mekah,” katanya.

Prof. Nohisham juga menjelaskan tekanan graviti yang tinggi memberi kesan langsung kepada sistem imun badan untuk bertindak sebagai pertah­anan daripada segala serangan penya­kit. Sebenarnya ketika berada di sana, sistem imun akan menjadi lebih kuat secara semula jadi tanpa bantuan vak­sin.

Pengaruh graviti banyak memainkan peranan untuk merangsang kelenjar pineal yang terletak di otak tengah un­tuk mengawal kekuatan sistem imun. Memang sudah dibuktikan apabila berada di Mekah yang sakit akan jadi sihat clan yang lemah akan bertenaga. Apabila graviti tinggi maka banyak elektron ion negatif yang berkumpul di situ. Sebab itulah doa akan termakbul kerana di situ adalah tempat gema atau ruang dan masa serentak. Apa yang diniatkan di hati adalah gema yang tidak boleh didengar tetapi boleh dikesan frekuensinya. Pengaruh elektron menyebabkan kekuatan dalaman kem­bali tinggi, penuh bersemangat untuk melakukan ibadat, tidak ada sifat putus asa, mahu terus hidup, penyerahan diri sepenuhnya kepada Allah.

Ketika berada di sisi Kaabah perasa­an akan segera berubah menjadi he­ning, tenang, sayu, rendah diri, kerdil pada kebesaran tuhan. Semua itu ada­lah pengaruh dari tekanan graviti yang tinggi. Meskipun ada niat jahat Yahudi atau Kristian untuk menghancurkan Mekah, cubaan itu tidak akan berjaya. Setinggi mana teknologi ketenteraan negara-negara maju tetapi tidak dapat menembusi Mekah. Andai kata ada peluru berpandu yang dihalakan ke Mekah untuk menghancurkannya, itu pun tidak akan berjaya. Gelombang radio tidak boleh mengesan kedudukan Kaabah. Begitulah hebatnya tempat yang Allah pilih sebagai kiblat bagi umat Islam. Sudah pastinya manusia biasa tidak mampu mencipta sesuatu sehebat itu. Malah teknologi satelit pun tidak boleh merieropong apa yang ada di dalam Kaabah. Frekuensi radio tidak mungkin dapat membaca apa-apa yang ada di dalam Kaabah kerana tekanan graviti yang tinggi.

“Tempat yang paling tinggi teka­nan gravitinya, mempunyai kandu­ngan garam dan aliran anak sungai di bawah tanah yang banyak. Sebab itu­lah jika bersembahyang di Masjidilha­ram walaupun di tempat yang terbuka tanpa bumbung masih terasa sejuk. Sujud, dahi mencecah lantar masih terasa dingin mamar yang dipanah matahari kerana tekanan graviti tinggi itu,” terangnya.

Selama ini kita hanya diajar tentang melakukan ibadat haji, rukunnya, seja­rahnya, perkara yang dilarang semasa ihram clan penjagaan kesihatan ketika di Mekah. Mengapa tidak pernah ada ulama atau tokoh agama yang mem­beritahu apa rahsia di sebalik rukun haji itu. Hikmah-hikmah yang selalu di­laung-laungkan tentang haji sudah terlalu biasa sangat. Haji dilihat sebagai satu pengorbanan, memerlukan kesabaran yang tinggi, persaudaraan, mengabdikan diri, melawan nafsu, dugaan, persamaan, perpaduan, kesu­dan rohani, menghambakan diri dan satu cita-cita. Semua yang dijelaskan terlalu subjektif.

Justeru, Al Islam mengambil kesem­patan ini untuk merungkaikan nikmat di sebalik tuntutan rukun haji dan larangan di dalam ihram berdasarkan hubungannya di dalam sains. Ia sudah pasti dimulakan dengan niat. Nampak mudah tetapi besar impaknya pada keseluruhan ibadat. Niat di sini bukan saja niat ihram tetapi juga niat kali pertama yang ter­lintas di hati untuk menunaikan haji. Menurut Prof Norhisham, apabila niat untuk mengerjakan haji sudah terlintas di hati, ia sebenarnya sudah sampai ke Kaabah. Untuk mendapatkan haji yang mabrur bermula dari niat semasa di tanah air. Akuinya, memang ramai yang mampu untuk mengerjakan haji namun untuk mendapatkan yang mabrur cukup sukar. Budaya masyarakat Melayu sebenarnya banyak menghalang tujuan mendapat­kan haji yang mabrur.

Katanya ramai yang tidak faham ten­tang ibadat tersebut. Ibadat haji mempu­nyai hubungan yang sangat rapat antara manusia dengan tuhan. Justeru tidak boleh ada rasa riak dan bangga diri. Jika membuat kenduri pun tidaklah sampai menjemput satu kampung.

‘Niat ke sana untuk apa? Belum pun habis kita menyusun niat sebenamya Kaabah sudah boleh mengesan apa yang di dalam hati kita. Niat itu ibarat bar kod yang akan diimbas semasa di sana nanti.

“Kita pergi ke sana untuk penye­rahan diri pada tuhan, rasa kerdil pada kebesaran Nya. Secara automatik akan menyebabkan kta lupa pada urusan dunia dan kesusahan yang ditempuhi. Pemusatan fikiran hanya kepada Allah tuhan yang satu, ia akan datang dengan sendirinya apabila berada di Mekah kerana semua itu ada kaitan dengan kekuatan Kaabah sebagai pusat bumi,” ujarnya.

Tambahnya lagi, Kaabah bukan se­kadar bangunan hitam empat persegi tetapi satu tempat yang ajaib kerana di situ pemusatan tenaga, graviti, zon magnetisme sifar dan tempat yang pa­ling dirahmati. Mengapa bermalam di Muzdalifah dan Mina menjadi satu perkara yang wajib sebelum melontar ketiga-tiga jamrah. Di sebalik semua itu ada tujuan apabila Allah menurunkan perintah­nya. Menurut Prof Norhisham, wajib haji itu bertujuan mendapatkan cukup rehat bagi memulihkan tenaga sebe­lum kembali semula ke Masjidilharam menunaikan tawaf dan sai.

“Tidur dengan posisi menghadap Kaabah secara automatik otak tengah akan terangsang sangat aktif hingga tulang belakang. Pengaruh graviti itu penting untuk menentukan kedudukan kan tulang belakang bagi menghasilkan sel darah. Ini adalah sebagai langkah persediaan untuk melakukan rukun haji yang berikutnya sebab itulah diwajibkan bermalam.

“Semasa tawaf nanti memerlukan tenaga yang banyak untuk mengelilingi Kaabah sebanyak tujuh kali. Bila ber­malam di Mina seolah-olah kita sudah dapat bateri baru untuk melakukan rukun yang lebih mencabar lagi,” jelasnya. Manakala mengenai tawaf pula memang banyak keistimewaannya. Pergerakan mengelilingi Kaabah arah lawan jam memberikan tenaga hayat secara semula jadi daripada alam semesta. Sebenarnya pusat bumi itu bukan sekadar untuk bumi saja tetapi ia seakan satu ruang atau suis yang mengawal seluruh cakerawala, bintang, matahari, planet dan ruang angkasa. Bermakna pusat bumi itu ada tenaga yang cukup kuat yang tidak boleh dili­hat, dengar, rasa tetapi boleh dikesan frekuensinya. Prof Norhisham turut menjelaskan pergerakan lawan jam di dalam jum­lah tujuh pusingan. Katanya, semua yang ada di alam ini bergerak mengi­kut lawan jam, Allah telah tentukan hukumnya begitu. Elektron mengelili­ngi nukles, molekul protein terben­tuk dari kiri ke kanan, darah beredar juga dari arah yang sama di dalam badan, sperma juga beredar mengikut lawan jam, matahari, bulan dan planet semuanya berputar mengikut hukum yang sama.

Peredaran darah atau apa saja di dalam tubuh manusia mengikut lawan jam. Justeru dengan mengelilingi Ka­abah mengikut awan jam, bermak­na peredaran darah di dalam badan meningkat dan sudah tentunya akan menambahkan tenaga. Sebab itulah orang yang berada di Mekah sentiasa bertenaga, sihat dan panjang umur.

“Manakala bilangan tujuh itu ada­lah simbolik kepada tidak terhingga banyaknya. Angka tujuh itu membawa maksud tidak terhad atau terlalu ba­nyak. Dengan melakukan tujuh kali pusingan sebenarnya kita mendapat ibadat yang tidak terhad jumlahnya,” terang Prof Norhisham. Manakala di dalam menunaikan rukun haji, ada perkara yang dilarang semasa berihram seperti tidak boleh tutup kepala, muka dan tapak tangan. Rambut, janggut tidak boleh disapu minyak, tidak boleh menanggalkan bulu dan rambut, memotong kuku dan memakai pakaian bersarung yang ber­jahit- khususnya bagi lelaki.

Semua larangan itu ada penerangan-nya. Larangan memakai topi, songkok atau menutup kepala kerana rambut clan bulu roma adalah ibarat antena untuk menerima gelombang yang balk yang dipancarkan terus dari Kaabah. Begitu juga, muka clan tangan mem­punyai fungsi yang sama. Sebab itu­lah selepas melakukan haji kita seperti dilahirkan semula sebagai manusia baru kerana segala yang buruk telah ditarik keluar clan digantikan dengan nur atau cahaya yang baru.

Selepas selesai semua itu baru­lah bercukur atau tahalul. Tujuannya untuk melepaskan diri daripada pan­tang larang dalam ihram. Namun rahsia di sebaliknya adalah untuk member­sihkan antena atau reseptor kita dari segala kekotoran supaya hanya gelom­bang yang baik saja akan diterima oleh tubuh.

Sambungnya lagi, penggunaan kain kapas sebagai kain ihram selain untuk menonjolkan persamaan di sisi tuhan, wujud rahsia yang lebih mendalam. Kain kapas menurut Prof Norhisham adalah simbolik tanah hitam yang berunsur karbon. Kapas adalah unsur yang paling bersih. Sudah dikaji, kain kapas boleh membiaskan atau meman­tulkan semula radiasi gelombang jarak jauh atau gelombang infra merah. Gelombang ini memang sudah dikenal pasti mempunyai kesan yang tidak baik kepada badan,” jelas.

Rahsia Air

Firman Allah S.W.T : “Dan KAMI jadikan daripada air, segala sesuatu yang hidup”

(Surah Al-Anbia, ayat 30 )


Maha Suci Allah yang telah mencipta mahkluk yang bernama air ini! Sesungguhnya ia adalah makhluk yang paling setia dan amat sekali peka dan menjalankan perintah Tuhannya!

Di dalam Al-Quran ada menyatakan peratusan Hydrogen (air) ini adalah 72% dan bakinya tanah adalah hanya 28% sahaja. Tubuh badan manusia adalah kunci kepada rahsia air ini. Rahsia manusia ada jaluran elektrik yang dinamakan AURA adalah kerana rahsia air ini juga! Lupakah kita sewaktu dalam kandungan perut ibu di dalam kandungan air semata-mata?

Air diperakui oleh saintis sedunia sebagai alat perakam terbaik sekali kerana ketepatannya apabila disukat pada dasarnya. Air sebenarnya boleh merakam setiap gema getaran yang dihadirkan baik dari bunyi termasuk dengan kata-kata dan juga dari hanya niat kita (tanpa kata-kata). Itulah keistimewaan air yang kita sangka hanya untuk pembersihan semata-mata. Islam mendidik kita mengambil wuduk dengan air dengan niat, begitu juga dengan mandian dari hadas kecil ataupun besar yang harus di letakkan dengan niat. Tidakkah kita pernah terfikir air itu sedang merakam niat kita?

Molekul air mempunyai struktur yang mudah. Namun begitu, struktur ini dapat menghasilkan tindak balas yang kompleks. Air terdiri daripada satu atom oksigen dan dua atom hidrogen.


Setiap atom hidrogen mempunyai satu proton di dalam nukleus dan satu elektron mengorbit nukleus. Nukleus atom oksigen pula terdiri daripada lapan proton. Mengorbit nukleus atom oksigen ialah lapan elektron yang bercas negatif. Dua elektron mengorbit petala yang berhampiran dengan nukleus, manakala enam elektron lagi di petala luar. Petala luar ini masih tidak lengkap dan memerlukan dua elektron lagi untuk menstabilkan aras tenaga. Elektron-elektron tambahan ini disumbangkan oleh hidrogen memandangkan atom hidrogen mempunyai ruang untuk satu lagi elektron.

Disebabkan ini, dua atom hidrogen dan satu atom oksigen boleh bergabung dan membentuk H2O, formula kimia yang kita semua kenali. Disebabkan daya penolakan dua atom hidrogen antara satu dengan lain, maka kedua-dua atom hidrogen terpisah pada sudut 105. Konfigurasi ini menghasilkan molekul air yang asimetri.

Ikatan atom yang membentuk molekul air merupakan ikatan kovalen yang berasaskan perkongsian elektron. Walau bagaimanapun, disebabkan bilangan proton di dalam atom oksigen lebih besar daripada atom hidrogen, pasangan elektron yang dikongsi lebih hampir dengan atom oksigen. Ini bermakna perkongsian elektron adalah tidak sama.

Atom oksigen mempunyai tarikan yang lebih terhadap elektron yang dikongsi. Oleh itu, oksigen lebih elektronegatif kerana seolah-olah mempunyai sedikit cas negatif. Disebabkan oleh kehilangan sebahagian daripada komplemennya, atom hidrogen pula bertindak seolah- olah membawa sedikit cas positif. Disebabkan taburan cas yang tidak sama, molekul air dikenali sebagai molekul dwikutub. Molekul air bertindak sama seperti magnet, satu hujungnya bercas positif dan satu hujung lagi pula bercas negatif.

Sifat dwikutub ini penting kerana membenarkan molekul air membentuk ikatan dengan molekul air yang berdekatan. Ikatan ini dikenali sebagai ikatan hidrogen. Atom hidrogen yang mempunyai cas positif yang sedikit boleh ditarik secara lemah oleh satu lagi atom oksigen daripada molekul air lain yang mungkin wujud berdekatan memandangkan oksigen ini bercas sedikit negatif. Dengan kata lain, hujung positif (hidrogen) satu molekul air akan tertarik kepada hujung negatif (oksigen) molekul air yang lain.

Kajian saintifik di Jepun : Dr. Masaru Emoto dari Universiti Yokohama dengan tekun melakukan penyelidikan tentang perubahan molekul air. Air murni dari mata air di Pulau Honshu didoakan secara agama Shinto, lalu didinginkan sehingga -5 °C di makmal, kemudian diambil gambar dengan mikroskop elektron dengan kamera halaju tinggi. Ternyata molekul air tersebut membentuk kristal segi enam yang indah.


Percubaan diulang dengan membacakan kata, “Arigato (terima kasih dalam bahasa Jepun)” di depan botol air tadi. Kristal yang terbentuk sangat indah. Lalu dicuba dengan menghadapkan tulisan huruf Jepun, “Arigato”. Kristal membentuk dengan keindahan yang sama. Selanjutnya ditunjukkan kata “setan”, kristal berbentuk buruk. Diputarkan muzik Symphony Mozart, kristal muncul berbentuk bunga. Ketika musik heavy metal diperdengarkan, kristal hancur. Ketika 500 orang berkonsentrasi memusatkan pesanan “peace” di depan sebotol air, kristal air tadi mengembang bercabang-cabang dengan indahnya. Dan ketika dicuba dibacakan doa Islam, kristal bersegi enam dengan lima cabang daun muncul berkilauan. Subhanallah!

Semasa di suatu seminar yang rata–ratanya dihadiri oleh bukan Islam, Prof. Masaru Emoto menunjukkan beberapa molekul air yang buruk rupanya. Kemudian yang terakhir beliau menunjukkan molekul-molekul air yang begitu indah, berbentuk kristal yang bercabang-cabang dan berkilauan. Beliau kemudiannya bertanya kepada hadirin tentang molekul air tersebut. Hadirin senyap. Dengan yakinnya seorang peserta seminar dari Malaysia bangun dan berkata “Itu molekul air zam-zam, air yang paling mulia”. Prof. Emoto menggangguk “Saya tidak pasti sama ada itu adalah air yang paling mulia atau tidak tetapi memang benar itu adalah molekul air zam-zam”. Dr. Emoto akhirnya mengelilingi dunia melakukan percubaan dengan air di Swiss, Berlin, Perancis, Palestin, dan ia kemudian diundang ke Markas Besar PBB di New York untuk membentangkan hasil penemuannya pada bulan Mac 2005 lalu. Ternyata air boleh ”mendengar” kata-kata, “membaca” tulisan, dan boleh “mengerti” pesanan.


Persidangan Air Sedunia baru-baru ini di salah sebuah Universiti di Malaysia membuktikan segala fakta tentang air. Sewaktu persidangan itu, air dari merata dunia diambil dan diperiksa akan “kehebatannya“. Kamera berfrekuensi tinggi berjarak jauh digunakan untuk melihat akan gambaran yang terjadi kepada air yang sedang di uji itu. Maka air dari Sungai Ganges dan juga termasuk Air Zam-Zam diuji dan dikenal pasti. Sesuatu yang nyata adalah Air Zam-Zam sahajalah air yang begitu kukuh dalam merakam segala perubahan pada kadar gelombang alam semesta ini dan strukturnya begitu kukuh (segi tiga). Keunikan Air Zam-Zam ini juga adalah strukturnya tidak berubah, ia tidak akan terjejas di dalam apa sekali pun tekanan yang sedang diberikan padanya. Ia tetap utuh sehinggakan seorang Professor dari Jepun memeluk agama Islam kerana keunikan Air Zam-Zam yang beliau ketahui hanya ada di Kaabah. Lagi satu kehebatan air Zam-Zam ini adalah ia sahaja didapati boleh merakam dengan tepat gelombang warna alam yang sering bertukar pada waktu-waktu yang tertentu.

Rahsia kehebatan air begitu terserlah apabila rahsia di Kaabah disingkap. Di bawah 4 penjuru (4 segi) bentuk Kaabah ada terkandung rahsia air yang bersifat Alkali. Itulah dia Air Zam-Zam, air yang merakam segala niat jemaah-jemaah yang datang secara gema gelombang, penyerahan yang harus di tekad niatkan dan sebaliknya bukan niat yang negatif umpama menunjuk-nunjuk, angkuh-sombong, riak-takbur dan sebagainya. Betapa ramai yang telah kita dengar akan jemaah yang tersesat dari dapat keluar dari pintu Masjidil Haram, juga yang tersesat balik ke Hotel, juga hilang entah ke mana, hanya menyimpan niat yang negatif, maka terakamlah segala niat kita maka dimakbulkan akan permintaan tadi sebagai suatu ujian getir dan diterbalikkan segala niat kita agar menjadi suatu peringatan supaya insaf dan sedar!

Hanya mereka yang benar-benar ingin mengambil tahu akan rahsia kehebatan air ini yang akan mendapat ganjaran kehebatan dan keunikan air ini. Di Kaabah, apabila niat kita benar-benar ikhlas, memohonkan ampun dan taubat, maka dengan sendirinya, kekuatan air iaitu Air Zam-Zam merakam niat jemaah tadi. Setelah ia melakukan tawaf 7 kali pusingan ke kanan, maka di situlah berlaku resonan (pusingan dengan geseran sesama manusia) maka penyerapan dosa-dosa itu terjadi, Insyaallah iaitu rahsia Kaabah yang memegang rahsia hitam serta Hajar Aswad yang juga hitam. Jemaah itu akan terasa begitu hening, tenang serta lapang jesteru akan terasa sebak lalu menangis teresak-esak kerana dapat merasakan kebesaran Allah SWT semata-mata.




Sebenarnya rahsia Kaabah dan Hajar Aswad ini adalah rahsia pada kejadian manusia di dalam perut. Majalah Medical Journal keluaran tahun 2000 ada menyatakan bahawa saintis mendapati apabila air mani dari lelaki memasuki ruang rahim wanita, berjuta-juta sperma berenang arah kanan ke kiri sebanyak 7 kali pusingan sebelum hanya satu sperma yang berjaya bercantum dengan telur maka persenyawaan pun terjadi maka samalah dengan rahsia pusingan jemaah di Kaabah iaitu apabila penyerahan adalah bersungguh-sungguh, penyerapan dosa akan terjadi, ciuman Hajar Aswad seakan-akan kita baru sahaja dijadikan iaitu bersih dari segala dosa! Maha Suci Allah yang Maha Pencipta, Maha Pengasih, Maha Penyayang pada hamba-hambanya. Apa yang disangkakan alam yang besar di dunia ini rupa-rupanya hanyalah kecil sahaja kerana “alam pada diri manusia” itu jauh lebih besar dan memegang segala rahsia luaran dan dalaman.

Maka benarlah kata-kata Rasullullah SAW marhumnya : “Kenalilah diri kamu rata-rata, barulah kamu kenal Tuhan yang nyata“.

Air adalah sumber penyucian. Ia berupaya merakam gema serta niat, umpama kita mengambil wuduk membaca niat, mandi wajib berniat dan sebagainya. Setiap tempat yang sudah pun Bertekanan Rendah, akan berlaku pelbagai istilah “musibah” yang “berbunyi” umpama taufan, ombak, gempa bumi dan pelbagai lagi untuk menyerap/seimbangkan semula gema/getaran kepada tahap tenaga asal tempat-tempat itu. Tidak lain tidak bukan Allah Maha Pengasih Maha Penyayang menghantar suatu “Isyarat” agar jangan kita “terbuai dan terhanyut jauh” oleh nafsu nafsi dan kembali ke pangkal jalanNya!

Apabila kita renungkan berpuluh-puluh ayat Al-Quran tentang air, kita akan tersentak bahawa Allah rupanya selalu menarik perhatian kita kepada air. Bahawa air tidak sekadar benda mati. Air menyimpan kekuatan, daya ingatan, daya penyembuh, dan sifat-sifat aneh lagi yang menunggu disingkap manusia. Islam adalah agama yang paling melekat dengan air. Solat fardhu wajib air wuduk 5 kali sehari, ketika solat sunat, malah untuk memegang Al-Quran. Persetubuhan, suami isteri wajib mandi wajib. Wanita yang datang haid selepas itu pun wajib mandi. Setelah matipun jenazah wajib dimandikan. Oleh itu kita mestilah menghormati air. Jaga kebersihan dan jaga adab–adab serta jangan membazir. Seorang ilmuwan Jepun telah merintis. Ilmuwan muslim harus melanjutkan kajian kehidupan ini berdasarkan Al-Quran dan hadis. Wallahua’lam.

Rahsia Ais

Zat di dalam ais tidak akan mampu dihasilkan oleh mana-mana saintis mahupun manusia"


Air sejuk yang hening dapat menolong pesakit insomnia yang sukar tidur agar dapat kembali tidur seperti biasa. Orang yang tidur dalam udara yang sejuk dan berselimut untuk memanaskan tubuhnya adalah kombinasi yang baik untuk menjaga kesihatan secara menyeluruh dalam jangka masa pendek apatah lagi jangka panjang.

Udara panas lebih memudahkan penyebaran penyakit berjangkit kerana bacteria lebih agresif dan cepat membiak dalam cuaca begini.Liputan ais di Antartika (daerah Kutub Selatan) dan Artik (daerah Kutub Utara) adalah pengimbang dasar bumi yang amat panas. Kombinasi dalam bumi yang panas dan luaran bumi yang sejuk adalah rahsia keseimbangan tekanan semulajadi alam yang mengawal graviti dan pergerakan bumi pada paksinya.

Ais atau air sejuk dapat mengembalikan memori atau sifat pelupa yang keterlaluan. Benarkan anak anda mengunyah ais kerana ini akan menguatkan giginya dan benarkan anak anda memakan ais krim secara perlahan-lahan dan berterusan sehingga batuknya hilang dalam masa beberapa jam kerana mengambil ubat batuk biasanya akan mengambil masa satu minggu untuk melegakan batuk secara total.Membiasakan diri mengunyah ais akan meningkatkan kecerdasan fikiran dan kepantasan pergerakan.

Ais amat diperlukan oleh mana-mana atlit sukan dalam kecederaan yang tidak disangka-sangkakan. Air sejuk atau ais kini dijadikan bahan perencat kepada kecederaan yang akut seperti demam panas yang biasanya dihidapi oleh bayi yang mempunyai potensi menghidapi penyakit sawan. Air sejuk adalah terapi yang amat popular sebagai penguat tulang yang telah patah dengan syarat ia dibalut dengan kain hitam. Air sejuk dalam rahsia cuka adalah sangat baik untuk menguatkan tulang yang patah kerana ia dapat menyembuhkan tulang dengan lebih cepat. Air suam dengan rahsia cuka yang diminum akan melemahkan dan mengecutkan sistem aliran darah yang menjadi penyebab utama terjadinya lumpuh.

Adalah makruh mengambil air sembahyang (wuduk) pada suhu yang tinggi atau yang telah terkena panas cahaya matahari yang pastinya akan mengganggu sistem deria pada kulit. Air sejuk secara psikologinya amat ditakuti oleh pesakit yang mengalami gangguan jin atau dikuasai oleh unsur-unsur spiritual yang jahat.Air sejuk mempunyai nada bunyi dalam tekanan rendah yang amat lembut lagi mengharmonikan.

Air sejuk akan menguatkan tulang bayi.Air sejuk akan meningkatkan sistem imun yang luar biasa sebagai tenaga pencegahan berbagai penyakit alahan dan jangkitan.Air sejuk dalam rahsia ais memegang rahsia kepadatan molekul kristal yang paling keras iaitu Intan.Air sejuk adalah kuasa penyerap yang amat sesuai dijadikan system penghantaran tenaga yang paling cekap sehingga ke dasar sel yang jauh dan menyeluruh.

Air sejuk mempunyai daya rangsangan yang boleh mengembalikan semangat orang yang telah hilang seperti pengsan, gila dan koma kembali sedar.Mandi air sejuk akan menguatkan tulang. Tulang yang berlebihan dengan urik asid akan meningkatkan suhu tulang dan melemahkan struktur tulang.Air sejuk lebih stabil molekul atomnya.

Air sejuk lebih peka kepada gelombang frekuensi rendah yang dirakamkan melalui niat dalam amalan berwuduk.Air sejuk dapat merakamkan gelombang frekuensi rendah lebih stabil.Air sejuk sesuai dijadikan air penawar kepada orang yang ingin merakamkan bunyi dalaman yang disertai dengan rasa kasih sayang dan keikhlasan.

Air kelapa muda bersifat sejuk dan amat baik untuk kesihatan kerana ia amat berkesan meneutralkan kesan keracunan dan keasidan yang berlebihan di dalam aliran darah. Tubuh secara semulajadi bersifat panas dan ia memerlukan pasangan yang bersifat sejuk.

Oksigen dan hidrogen bersifat panas dan ia menguasai bahagian perut. Adalah menjadi suatu kesalahan memulakan amalan pemakanan di waktu pagi dengan unsur-unsur yang panas. Minumlah seteguk air sejuk di awal pagi kerana ia akan menguatkan perut.

Motivation this week

"Tiada manusia yang berjaya dalam semua yang dilakukannya dan kewujudan kita ini sebenarnya mesti menempuh kegagalan. Yang penting ialah kita tidak menjadi lemah semasa kegagalan itu terjadi dan kekalkan usaha hingga ke akhir hayat."

"Kekuatan sebenarnya terletak pada HATI"

7 CARA EFEKTIF MERANCANG

Untuk berjaya, perlu merancang dengan efektif.  Tips perkongsian ini adalah apa yang saya praktikkan dari dahulu lagi dan ia berkesan untuk sesiapa sahaja yang cenderung untuk mengubah hidup.

Ada 7 cara untuk merancang:

1# Jangan Bergantung pada orang lain
Anda tidak perlukan kebenaran orang lain bagi mencapai impian. Percaya pada diri sendiri dan beri peluang kepada diri anda untuk berjaya. Dapatkan sokongan daripada orang yang rapat dengan anda. Orang itu mestilah positif.
Mereka akan menjadi pendorong anda untuk bergerak. Jika anda ada idea, kehendak dan kemahuan, anda tidak perlukan persetujuan orang lain. Jangan tunggu kerana ini membuang masa anda.

2# Jangan tunggu sampai sempurna
Menunggu sehingga segala-galanya sempurna akan membuatkan anda hilang semangat, perhatian dan minat untuk menunaikan impian. Anda tak mungkin ada segala-galanya macam wang, masa dan pengetahuan untuk capai impian.
Ambik risiko, belajar dan tingkatkan diri secara bertahap. Kalau nak tunggu sampai sempurna maksudnya bila dah banyak duit, bila dah tahu semua maksudnya anda memang nak buang masa.

3# Ciptakan Masa
Ramai orang ada impian, sasaran dan kehendak. Tapi sasaran tak dapat disempurnakan. Mungkin kerana kesibukan rutin hingga tidak ada masa untuk sempurnakan impian. Masa dan tenaga perlu diperuntukkan untuk capai impian.

4# Tetapkan hati
Setiap usaha yang dilakukan dengan hati yang ikhlas pasti membuahkan hasil. Kalau buat dalam keadaan hati yang berat, lama kelamaan boleh jadi pekerjaan itu sekerat jalan atau tidak berhasil langsung. Buat ikut minat sahaja, tak minat cari benda lain.

5# Ambil Inisiatif
Berusaha dan bertindak secara proaktif dan bersistem. Kalau anda kongsi idea dengan orang lain dan tunggu orang lain bertindak untuk pihak anda. Ibarat anda nak makan minta orang lain suapkan. Senang cerita, tidak ada sesiapapun yang akan ambik berat pada impian anda kecuali diri anda sendiri.

6# Keluarkan belanja
Bagi mencapai impian, anda sendiri yang keluarkan belanja. Bukan orang lain. Jika idea anda itu bijak, jangan fikir ia akan dibayar oleh orang lain. Contohnya anda mempunyai idea bisnes yang hebat. Anda perlu keluarkan belanja untuk menjadikan produk itu reality.

7# Lakukan satu perkara terlebih dahulu
Buat semua perkara dengan satu komitmen. Lakukan pada satu projek dahulu. Tak kira kalau anda gagal ataupun berjaya, lakukan satu perkara terlebih dahulu.
Jika anda lakukan banyak perkara, anda memerlukan tenaga yang lebih bagi merealisasikan impian anda. Cari keutamaan dahulu. Rancang kerja dan kerjakan rancangan anda.

Insya Allah, anda boleh berjaya dan menjadi seorang yang sukses!

Exchange Server 2007 Transport: 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system resources - Turn Off

In reference to previous post titled "Exchange Server 2007 Transport: 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system resources", the Back Pressure feature, that detects resource pressure on Exchange Server 2007 transport servers and stops accepting new message submission if low on resources, can be turned off.



Here's how to do it:

1. Open the EdgeTransport.exe.config file from \Exchange Server\bin directory using notepad

2. Add the following key+value pair:

add key="EnableResourceMonitoring" value="false"

3. Save file

4. Restart Microsoft Exchange Transport Service (MSExchangeTransport)

Exchange Server 2007 Transport: 452 4.3.1 Insufficient system resources

The Application Event Log has Event ID 15002 from MSExchangeTransport saying "The resource pressure is constant at High. Statistics... ". The event goes on to tell you that inbound mail submission has stopped, and it's due to disk space being low on the volume where the queue database is located.

Figure 1: Event ID 15002 logged by MSExchangeTransport

Exchange Server 2007 transport queues are not the familiar .eml files you see in Exchange Server 2003/2000, which reside in the \mailroot\vsi <1>\queue folder (<1> is the instance number of the SMTP virtual server) on the file system. Queues have been moved to a JET database.

What's Back Pressure?
In Exchange Server 2007, the Transport service monitors system resources such as disk space and memory on Transport servers (the Hub Transport and the Edge Transport servers), and stops message submission if it is running low on these resources. It continues to deliver existing messages in the queue. When resource utilization returns to normal, it resumes message submission. The feature is called Back Pressure.

In this case, Exchange required 4 Gigs of free disk space on the volume where the Queue database was located - I had about 3.95 Gigs. :)


Changes to Back Pressure settings in Exchange Server 2007 SP1

The Back Pressure settings in Exchange Server 2007 RTM stop inbound mailflow if free disk space is below 4 Gigs. This static threshold has been lowered in SP1 to a more realistic 500 Mb.


The Resolution
Many configuration options for transport servers are saved in an XML file named EdgeTransport.exe.config (same file name on both Edge and Hub Transport servers) located in \Exchange Server\Bin\. You can edit the file to disable Back Pressure, or modify the parameters to more accurately define what's high utilization for your deployment or server configurations, as explained in the above docs.

Another resolution, and the one I used in this case, was to move the Queue database to another volume with ample of free space, using the following procedure:

1. Add the following key in the section in EdgeTransport.exe.config:
   This is documented in "How to Change the Location of the Queue Database"
2. Restart the MSExchangeTransport service, and message submission resumes.

Top iPhone Apps must installed.

Non jailbreak apps:

Wifi, Files lite or Air sharing:  These apps allows you to share your iphone like a usb drive via wifi. So load up some of your key docs and keep them on hand ready to share at any time.  Looking for work? Put your CV on there.  The user simply types in a URL on their web browser and downloads the file. I like Wifi most because it allows the visitor to download images from my device as well. Now what will happen when more then 1 person has this running at the same time? I’m going to guess the port numbers will change. This will be interesting.

Handshake, SnapDat, beamME: One of the most annoying things about the iphone is the inability to easily exchange contact info. I loved how on the palm/treo you simply press and hold the address button and your contact  is beamed across. Perfect!   I’ve used SnapDat and beamME and its kludgy, it works, but kludgy. So, load all 3, you never know who has what. You can dump them later.

Fring: This is a great app.  If you need to watch your minutes, fring is a great VoIP. Something to keep on hand.

Doodles: This may surprise a few people, but you never know when you want to sketch up a diagram really quick. You can save your sketch as a picture, and then share that sketch Wifi.

Urbanspoon, Yelp:  Not from around these parts?  Needs a place to get your grub on? Either of these apps will help you find something to fill your grill.

Stitcher radio: Since you will be in various meetings, you may not have the time to read the various blogs you would normally check out throughout the day. Stitcher has many blogs, like slashdot and techcrunch as well as podcasts like digital planet and cybershake.

iEasyCamera:  I’ve been to enough shows to see people struggle trying to take a pic with the iPhone at an odd angle, typically of themselves with friends. With this app, you can press anywhere on the screen to take your shot.

vlingo: I like this better then google’s voice search. Since you can select map vs. web vs. address book, I found that my results are much better.

Now lets look at jailbroken apps:

SBSetting: This is my MUST have jailbreak app. Esp. given the likely dodgy nature of wifi and 3G that always seem to occur at these events, the ability to turn wifi, 3g on and off quickly is a must. 

Cycoder, Qik: Sure the iphone camera is not that great, and as such the videos are not that great, but they are good enough to capture the moment. With Qik, you can do a live broadcast. 

PdaNet: So the wifi at that cafe is not working eh?  and you already set up and bought your coffee? Never fear, you have PdaNet.  Tether your laptop to your iphone.  

So this is my list.  Have other apps that your think are a MacWorld must have?  Let me know and I’ll add it to the list.

Is it u?

 Dreamy Idealist (DI)

Dreamy Idealists are very cautious and therefore often appear shy and reserved to others. They share their rich emotional life and their passionate convictions with very few people. But one would be very much mistaken to judge them to be cool and reserved. They have a pronounced inner system of values and clear, honourable principles for which they are willing to sacrifice a great deal. Joan of Arc or Sir Galahad would have been good examples of this personality type. Dreamy Idealists are always at great pains to improve the world. They can be very considerate towards others and do a lot to support them and stand up for them. They are interested in their fellow beings, attentive and generous towards them. Once their enthusiasm for an issue or person is aroused, they can become tireless fighters.

For Dreamy Idealists, practical things are not really so important. They only busy themselves with mundane everyday demands when absolutely necessary. They tend to live according to the motto “the genius controls the chaos” - which is normally the case so that they often have a very successful academic career. They are less interested in details; they prefer to look at something as a whole. This means that they still have a good overview even when things start to become hectic. However, as a result, it can occasionally happen that Dreamy Idealists overlook something important. As they are very peace-loving, they tend not to openly show their dissatisfaction or annoyance but to bottle it up. Assertiveness is not one of their strong points; they hate conflicts and competition. Dreamy Idealists prefer to motivate others with their amicable and enthusiastic nature. Whoever has them as superior will never have to complain about not being given enough praise.

As at work, Dreamy Idealists are helpful and loyal friends and partners, persons of integrity. Obligations are absolutely sacred to them. The feelings of others are important to them and they love making other people happy. They are satisfied with just a small circle of friends; their need for social contact is not very marked as they also need a lot of time to themselves. Superfluous small talk is not their thing. If one wishes to be friends with them or have a relationship with them, one would have to share their world of thought and be willing to participate in profound discussions. If you manage that you will be rewarded with an exceptionally intensive, rich partnership. Due to their high demands on themselves and others, this personality type tends however to sometimes overload the relationship with romantic and idealistic ideas to such an extent that the partner feels overtaxed or inferior. Dreamy Idealists do not fall in love head over heels but when they do fall in love they want this to be a great, eternal love.

Adjectives which describe your type

introverted, theoretical, emotional, spontaneous, idealistic, dreamy, effusive, pleasant, reserved, friendly, passionate, loyal, perfectionist, helpful, creative, composed, curious, obstinate, with integrity, willing to make sacrifices, romantic, cautious, shy, peace-loving, vulnerable, sensitive, communicative, imaginative

Career Guide

ABOUT YOU

You are a steady, dependable and amiable individual who likes to be challenged by interesting projects. Results are important to you and in general you will apply yourself in order to achieve your objectives and reach your goals. Being a hard working, no-nonsense person you will try to tackle most jobs and work persistently in order to see them through to a conclusion.

You are usually kind, accommodating and will readily accept and try to help those around you. Because of this, people are likely to warm to your sincerity and come to put their trust in you. Although you can be assertive and will stand up for yourself, you probably try as far as possible to avoid arguments or disputes.

Being well organised and clear thinking you can collect facts and information in order to solve a problem and as you are a good verbal communicator you can use this in order to influence others and gain their commitment.

You can be quite firm and will on occasions take up a stubbornly independent stance, especially if you feel very strongly about something.

YOU IN THE WORKPLACE

As your career develops and you gain experience in the workplace colleagues will realise that once you take on a project you can be relied upon to work persistently until the job is complete. As you progress in the job your natural inquisitiveness will allow you to explore situations and carefully assess specialist information.

Ultimately, as you gain experience and knowledge in your specific area of expertise your confidence is likely to grow and you will approach both people and projects in a positive and confident manner. Being people-orientated you will want to work as part of a team and enjoy interacting with them. You are a good verbal communicator but equally you will want to listen to what your colleagues have to say. By doing this you will be in a position to assess the opinions of others and consider what they have to say before moving forward. This can have a steadying effect on colleagues who may want to move too quickly.

Your responses suggest that before starting a project you will probably need to be given time to prepare yourself and get things organised in your own mind. Once you have accomplished this you are likely to apply both patience and tenacity to the task at hand. Equally, before you make decisions you will want to check out all the available information and feel confident that the route you are going is the right one. Achieving your goals and the challenge of completing a task or solving a problem thoroughly are important to you.

Given all these factors, the ideal working environment for you to consider would be one where the job has a certain amount of routine but also keeps you challenged. You should be allowed to work to predetermined and agreed timescales and the parameters of the job should be clearly defined and of a structured nature. The ideal career for you to pursue would be one where you can work as part of a specialist or administrative team and interact with people on a regular basis. Security in the job is likely to be very important to you.

KEY CAREER CRITERIA

When identifying your future career you should consider and utilise your particular skills. Thus key factors to consider are areas where you can organise and lead people to complete tasks of a specialist or administrative nature.

The following tasks and responsibilities are likely to be appropriate to your behavioural characteristics.

• Working persistently to achieve a result.
• Leading and motivating people in a specialist area of competence and expertise.
• Communicating verbally, building relationships and gaining the commitment of others.
• Being part of a team and working in a structured environment.

Ideally the job should not require you to make impulsive decisions or involve you in confrontational issues.

YOUR WORK STRENGTHS

Once you have decided upon your career path and any matching educational opportunities, you can move towards realising your full potential and test and develop your work strengths.

The contribution you are likely to bring to an organisation will be your drive to take on a task and see it through to conclusion. Being amiable and communicative you can work alongside others and will quickly establish their trust. You can persuade people to your point of view using facts and information and by example of hard work.

You will enthusiastically tackle projects and focus yourself in order to achieve your goals and objectives. Although fairly assertive you will try to keep the environment non-antagonistic and endeavour to stabilise conflict situations.

Example of a Personal Leadership SWOT

Strengths

• Compulsive
• Strong follow-through
• Articulate
• Writes well
• Balanced work-life perspective
• Multi-interested (e.g., work, recreational activities [e.g., curling, golf, etc.])
• Ambitious

Weaknesses

• Strong need to “get things done and off my list” with consequence of getting it done right away, thereby undermining the benefits of more careful deliberation over time
• Compulsiveness sometimes causes me to begrudge being given tasks, i.e., stress of many tasks and need to do each carefully can lead me to think unkindly about the people and/or circumstance creating the task
• Can be impatient, i.e., not tolerate those who do not understand (“suffer fools poorly”)
• Time pressure causes stress and can lead to emotional “hijacking”
• Do not handle multiple immediately competing demands well

Opportunities

• To engage others in providing feedback about their experience of me
• To receive coaching in service of improving my leadership skills
• To learn from others in similar roles to mine
• To enhance my ability to manage the need to complete task quickly in order to be able to deliberate more carefully
• To enhance my equanimity about work-related tasks

Threats

• Time pressure, which can derail my plan for self-improvement because it catapults me back to my “usual” habits
• The multitude of everyday demands, which conspires against self-reflection
• Etc.

Personal SWOT

Do some homework before you appear for the interview:

• Have participatory sessions with your friends to know more of your strengths and weaknesses.
• List down all your strengths and weaknesses.
• Explore the prospective job/employer/company to identify opportunities.
• Gain more knowledge about the industry to detect threats.

Handling SWOT at interviews

Before the interview, ensure your resume maps to what you might talk about. It should also highlight your strengths. 

1. Strengths: Positives you can capitalise on, these should be your ‘key selling points.’

Think of what makes you special. What influences and motivates you? What are your attributes for success? What key traits do you have? You can talk about your personal characteristics here like: Good analytical skills, determination, persistence, etc.

Examples of strengths:a. Very confident and assertive.b. Good communication skills.

What the interviewer ‘buys’ is ‘how are these strengths helping in the job he has to offer’ and ‘what is the value they add to the job’. For example, while appearing for a sales job interview, the following strengths can be highlighted:

1. I am very confident and assertive in whatever I do. I have been able to leverage customer service by converting unhappy customers to loyal customers by understanding their problems, educating them, giving them confidence and being able to solve their problems.
2. I have been involved in company presentations and workshops, and have been imparting training. My communication skills help me stand up and put forward my views in front of a group of people.
3. Having worked in customer service for two years, I have good customer service skills and customer relations.

2. Weaknesses: Negative areas you need to improve on.

This is the toughest aspect to think of and share with your future/potential company. Also, this is one area where your answers need to be more diplomatic. Avoid hinting at something that may impact the job execution in your potential company. 

We all know and admit that no one is perfect. Do not say ‘I don’t have any weakness’. Be realistic and show that you realize and are well aware of your weaknesses. Give confidence to your prospective employer that your weaknesses are not going to hamper your job.

Examples of weaknesses:

1. I sometimes tend to get into too many details that delay execution.
2. I can’t say ‘No’ if someone asks me for help with some work.

Never highlight personal weaknesses like ‘being emotional’, ‘short tempered’ etc.

3. Opportunities: Positive external conditions you can take advantage of.

Talk about various opportunities you foresee in that prospective job. This will show your interest and reflect a positive attitude.

Examples of opportunities:

1. While working with international customers, I may have the opportunity to learn new cultures; newer ways of working that will further help me to provide customised and better services to my customers.
2. By imparting training, I will be able to improve my confidence level and presentation skills.

4. Threats: Negative external conditions you can’t control but can minimize.

There are threats we all face at our workplaces, but we need to know how to survive with them. While talking about ‘threats’, try to foresee the ones you may face at your prospective job.

Examples of threats:

1. Competition for the job I want.
2. Overworking myself by taking on so many responsibilities.
3. Changing job requirements of the field.

Also suggest certain ways you may minimise these threats. For example:

1. Getting trained on certain skills to survive competition for the job.
2. Trying time management to avoid getting overworked.
3. Upgrading my technical skills and proficiencies and keeping abreast of industry changes to cope up with job requirements. 

 

Take away points

• Map your STRENGTHS to your prospective job.
• Avoid hinting at WEAKNESSES that may have a negative impact on your prospective job. Also try to present an improvement plan that you have to overcome these weaknesses.
• Identify OPPORTUNITIES in the prospective job and mention how these can be advantageous to you and help in performing the job better.
• Detect THREATS and present ways to minimize them.

Open Port Check Tool

The open port checker is a tool you can use to check your external IP address and detect open ports on your connection. This tool is useful for finding out if your port forwarding is setup correctly or if your server applications are being blocked by a firewall. This tool may also be used as a port scanner to scan your network for ports that are commonly forwarded. It is important to note that some ports, such as port 25, are often blocked at the ISP level in an attempt to prevent malicious activity.

Troubleshooting MYSQL : Could not connect: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

1. maybe lost mysql.sock file

You need to give the mysql group ownership of the /var/lib/mysql directory.

#> chown -R mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql

If you lost your mysql.sock file just make a symlink to the file:

# ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock

ref: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080704165734AAG757T


2. When connecting to a MySQL server located on the local system, the mysql client connects thorugh a local file called a socket instead of connecting to the localhost loopback address 127.0.0.1. For the mysql client, the default location of this socket file is /tmp/mysql.sock. However, for a variety of reasons, many MySQL installations place this socket file somewhere else like /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.

While it is possible to make this work by specifying the socket file directly in the mysql client command

mysql --socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock ...

it is painful to type this in every time. If you must do so this way (because you don’t have permissions to the file in the solution below), you could create an alias in your shell to make this work (like alias mysql=”mysql –socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock” depending on your shell).

To make your life easier, you can make a simple change to the MySQL configuration file /etc/my.cnf that will permanently set the socket file used by the mysql client. After making a backup copy of /etc/my.cnf, open it in your favorite editor. The file is divided into sections such as
[mysqld]
datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/usr/local/mysql

If there is not currently a section called [client], add one at the bottom of the file and copy the socket= line under the [mysqld] section such as:

[client]
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

If there is already a [client] section in the my.cnf file, add or edit the socket line as appropriate. You won’t need to restart your server or any other processes. Subsequent uses of the mysql client will use the proper socket file.

ref: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/762/solve-cant-connect-to-local-mysql-server-through-socket-tmpmysqlsock/


3. Okay, so let's answer to this question, once for all.

First of all, you DO NOT WANT to recreate mysql.sock,
that logically makes NO sense at all.

What you REALLY want to do is restart the mysql daemon (mysqld),
which when it is up and running will create a socket for you,
so you can communicate with it.

- Creating a file by hand won't help
- Creating a socket by hand won't help
- None of these "can talk" to the server which is "not running".

The reason why you "lost mysql.sock" is that:
- the mysqld daemon stop or crashed
- a fatal error occurred
- your configuration is wrong /etc/my.cnf
- your permissions are wrong /var/lib/mysql and /var/lib/mysql/mysql ...
=> make sure the owner is mysql:mysql and 775 or similar.
- your mysql data is corrupted: myisamcheck or mysql_install_db

Now, you may say, hey but I tried:
- /etc/init.d/mysqld restart
- /etc/init.d/mysqld start
- mysqld_safe --user=mysql &

and none of those worked...

That's sort of normal, if the server crashed in the first place.

So, what you REALLY need to do is look at the file located in:
/var/log/mysqld.log

like this:
tail -f /var/log/mysqld.log
or
cat /var/log/mysqld.log

figure out the error message, solve that error message
or try to find a work-around for that error on google.

Once that error message is "solved", then you can safely restart mysqld
[no need to reboot], and once the daemon is up and running,
your magical "mysql.sock" file will appear as it did before. =)

The big problem with this is that the "mysql.sock" error message
is not helping at all, and you must "know" that the real error message
is in the mysql log file that's all.

Hope this help.

ref: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/servers/1451-what-mysql-sock-file-2.html

4. Only delete de log files ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1 and ibdata1 in the /var/lib/mysql directory and then type:

"mysqld_safe --user=mysql &"

and automatically the mysql.sock file will be create and the news logs files.

Wow!!! Do not this if you are using InnoDB as db. Then you'll loose a lot of information. Deleting those files that is.

ref : http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/servers/1451-what-mysql-sock-file.html

5. For self-installed MySQL

If you have downloaded and installed MySQL yourself but are using the pre-installed version of PHP, note that your custom version of MySQL might be configured to use the old MySQL socket location, /tmp/mysql.sock. The version of PHP in this software update uses the newer location /var/mysql/mysql.sock by default.

Therefore, if your PHP scripts are failing to connect to your custom installation of MySQL, this is a likely cause. To correct this, you can modify the PHP configuration file to use the old MySQL socket location:

1. Create /etc/php.ini if it is not present. (You can do so by copying /etc/php.ini.default to /etc/php.ini).
2. Edit the /etc/phi.ini config file, find the [MySQL] section, and change this line:

mysql.default_socket = /var/mysql/mysql.sock

To:

mysql.default_socket = /tmp/mysql.sock

3. Restart the web server to pick up the new PHP settings. It should not be necessary to restart MySQL.

If you subsequently decide to use the version of MySQL that is pre-installed with Mac OS X Server, which uses /var/mysql/mysql.sock, you'll want to either remove that line from /etc/php.ini, or change it back.

ref: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3077?viewlocale=en_US


6. Since its a prod DB, I need to do this sometime tonight. I will try >su
> cd /etc/init.d
>./mysql stop
>./mysql start

Apart from:
chmod 755

Have you checked that the files are owned by mysql?

Otherwise you should run:
chown -R mysql /your/mysql/datadir

MySQL - Import/Export Large MYSQL Databases

When working with MYSQL I often use phpMyAdmin, which is a nice GUI way to manipulate my database. But some operations won't work in phpMyAdmin when the database is too large. In particular, you can't import or export really large databases using phpMyAdmin. So sometimes you need to do things on the command line.

So I thought I'd document some of the command line snippets we use frequently.
In the following, replace
[USERNAME] with your mysql username,
[DBNAME] with your database name,
[/path_to_file/DBNAME] with the path and name of the file used for the database dump, and
[/path_to_mysql/] with the path to mysql bin (like /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/).


Copy/Export a Large Database
 
MYSQL has no 'Copy' function. You create a copy by dumping the database with mysqldump. To dump the database and gzip it at the same time, use the following. This will prompt you for your password.

 

mysqldump -u [USERNAME] -p [DBNAME] | gzip > [/path_to_file/DBNAME].sql.gz

Import a Large Database

  

If you want to replace the database with a fresh dump created by the above process, do the following.
First, unzip the file.

 

gzip -d [/path_to_file/DBNAME].sql.gz

Get to a mysql prompt (you will be asked for your password.)

 

[/path_to_mysql/]mysql -u [USERNAME] -p

Then do the following to wipe out the old database and replace it with the new dump:

 

SHOW DATABASES;
DROP DATABASE [DBNAME];
CREATE DATABASE [DBNAME];
USE [DBNAME];
SOURCE [/path_to_file/DBNAME].sql;

Conditional Dumps

 

Sometimes the search index is huge and you want to omit it from the dump. Do so with:

 

mysqldump -u [USERNAME] -p [DBNAME] --ignore-table=[DBNAME].search_index | gzip > [/path_to_file/DBNAME].sql.gz

There are actually a number of tables you could exclude, like the sessions table, the watchdog table and all the cache* tables.

But if you use the above technique to destroy and recreate the database after doing this, you will be missing all those excluded tables. So you will want to do a two step process instead:

First, create a backup with ONLY the table information, no data.

mysqldump -u [USERNAME] -p [DBNAME] --no-data | gzip > [/path_to_file/DBNAME].info.sql.gz

Then create a backup, including only data from the tables you need.

 

[path_to_mysql/]mysqldump -u [USERNAME] -p [DBNAME]  --no-create-info --ignore-table=[DBNAME].search_index --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_block --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_content --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_filter --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_form --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_menu --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_mollom --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_page --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_pathdst --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_pathsrc --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache_views | gzip > [/path_to_file/DBNAME].data.sql.gz;

Well that's a lot of typing. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a wildcard we could use instead of typing out all those cache_ tables? Well there is!! You can do:

 

[path_to_mysql/]mysqldump -u [USERNAME] -p [DBNAME]  --no-create-info --ignore-table=[DBNAME].search_index --ignore-table=[DBNAME].cache% | gzip > [/path_to_file/DBNAME].data.sql.gz;

After doing this, just import the two files as above, first the one with only the table info, and then the data. Result, a (relatively) small database with all the optional tables emptied out.

Note that the wildcard trick above is not documented anywhere that I can see, so you'll want to test that it works in your setup.

Server - BgInfo v4.16

Introduction

How many times have you walked up to a system in your office and needed to click through several diagnostic windows to remind yourself of important aspects of its configuration, such as its name, IP address, or operating system version If you manage multiple computers you probably need BGInfo. It automatically displays relevant information about a Windows computer on the desktop's background, such as the computer name, IP address, service pack version, and more. You can edit any field as well as the font and background colors, and can place it in your startup folder so that it runs every boot, or even configure it to display as the background for the logon screen.
Because BGInfo simply writes a new desktop bitmap and exits you don't have to worry about it consuming system resources or interfering with other applications.

Sysinternals BgInfo

Installation and Use

See Mark's Windows IT Pro MagazinePower Tools article for a primer on using BgInfo. If you have questions or problems, please visit the Sysinternals BgInfo Forum.

By placing BGInfo in your Startup folder, you can ensure that the system information being displayed is up to date each time you boot. Once you've settled on the information to be displayed, use the command-line option /timer:0 to update the display without showing the dialog box.

You can also use the Windows Scheduler to run BGInfo on a regular basis to ensure long-running systems are kept up to date.

If you create a BGInfo configuration file (using the File|Save Settings menu item) you can automatically import and use those settings on other systems by adding the /I or /iq command line option.

Using BgInfo

When you run BGInfo it shows you the appearance and content of its default desktop background. If left untouched it will automatically apply these settings and exit after its 10 second count-down timer expires.
Selecting any button or menu item will disable the timer, allowing you to customize the layout and content of the background information.

If you want BGInfo to edit or use a configuration stored in a file (instead of the default configuration which is stored in the registry) specify the name of the file on the command line:

BGInfo MyConfig.bgi

Appearance Buttons

Fields: Selects what information appears on the desktop, and the order in which it is displayed. For networking fields (NIC, IP, MAC, etc.) a separate entry is created for each network card on the system. Use the Custom button to add special information you define yourself.

Background: Selects the color and/or wallpaper to use for the background. If you select the Copy existing settings option then BGInfo will use whatever information is currently selected by the logged on user. This option allows end users to personalize their desktop while still displaying the BGInfo information.

Position: Selects the location on the screen at which to place the text. If some items are very long (for example some network card names) you can use the Limit Lines to item to wrap them. The Compensate for Taskbar position checkbox adjusts the position of the text to ensure that it is not covered by the Taskbar. The Multiple Monitor Configuration button allows you to specify how multiple monitors attached to a single console should be handled.

Desktops: Selects which desktops are updated when the configuration is applied. By default only the User Desktop wallpaper is changed. Enabling the Logon Desktop for Console users option specifies that the wallpaper should be displayed on the logon desktop that is presented before anyone has logged onto the system. On Windows 95/98/ME systems the same desktop is used for users and the login screen, so this option has no effect. Enabling the Logon Desktop for Terminal Services users option specifies that the wallpaper should be displayed on the Terminal Services login screen. This option is useful only on servers running Terminal Services.

Preview: Displays the background as it will appear when applied to your system.

Configuration Menu Items

These are options that control how the bitmap is produced, where it is located and how to import/export settings.
File | Open: Opens a BGInfo configuration file.

File | Save As: Saves a copy of the current BGInfo configuration to a new file. Once created, you can have BGInfo use the file later by simply specifying it on the command line, or by using File|Open menu option.

File|Reset Default Settings: Removes all configuration information and resets BGInfo to its default (install-time) state. Use this if you can't determine how to undo a change, or if BGInfo becomes confused about the current state of the bitmap.

File|Database: Specifies a .XLS, .MDB or .TXT file or a connection string to an SQL database that BGInfo should use to store the information it generates. Use this to collect a history of one or more systems on your network. You must ensure that all systems that access the file have the same version of MDAC and JET database support installed. It is recommended you use at least MDAC 2.5 and JET 4.0. If specifying an XLS file the file must already exist.

If you prefer to have BGInfo update the database without modifying the user's wallpaper you can unselect all desktops in the Desktops dialog; BGInfo will still update the database.

Bitmap|256 Colors: Limits the bitmap to 256 colors. This option produces a smaller bitmap.

Bitmap|High Color/True Color: Creates a 16-bit or 24-bit color bitmap.

Bitmap|Match Display: Creates a bitmap with color depth matching that of the display. Because the bitmap generated by BGInfo is not updated when a user changes the display's color depth you may see unexpected results (especially dithering of the text and background) with some combinations of bitmap and display depth.

Bitmap|Location: Specifies the location to place the output bitmap file. On Terminal Services servers the bitmap should be placed in a location that is unique to each user.

Edit|Insert Image: Allows you to insert a bitmap image into the output. Because BGInfo's configuration information is stored in the registry and Windows limits the size of registry values you may encounter errors when inserting larger images. On Windows 9x/Me systems the limit is 16K, while on NT/2000/XP systems the limit is 64K.

Command Line Options

	Specifies the name of a configuration file to use for the current session. Changes to the configuration are automatically saved back to the file when OK or Apply is pressed. If this parameter is not present BGInfo uses the default configuration information which is stored in the registry under the current user ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Winternals\BGInfo").
/timer	Specifies the timeout value for the countdown timer, in seconds. Specifying zero will update the display without displaying the configuration dialog. Specifying 300 seconds or longer disables the timer altogether.
/popup	Causes BGInfo to create a popup window containing the configured information without updating the desktop. The information is formatted exactly as it would if displayed on the desktop, but resides in a fitted window instead. When using this option the history database is not updated.
/silent	Suppresses error messages.
/taskbar	Causes BGInfo to place an icon in the taskbar's status area without updating the desktop. Clicking the icon causes the configured information to appear in a popup window. When using this option the history database is not updated.
/all	Specifies that BGInfo should change the wallpaper for any and all users currently logged in to the system. This option is useful within a Terminal Services environment, or when BGInfo is scheduled to run periodically on a system used by more than one person (see Using a Schedule below).
/log	Causes BGInfo to write errors to the specified log file instead of generating a warning dialog box. This is useful for tracking down errors that occur when BGInfo is run under the scheduler.
/rtf	Causes BGInfo to write its output text to an RTF file. All formatting information and colors are included.
