Solving Einstein's Equations in Three Dimensions
http://www.theory.caltech.edu/people/patricia/test/Einstein3.html#Einstein31

Inertia Manipulation Through Metric Patching
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0106003
E-print which presents the exact solution for the stress-energy tensor of a spherical matter shell of finite thickness that will patch together different metrics at the boundaries of the shell. By David Waite.
Gravitomagnetic Effects
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0407116
Introductory article by Gerhard Schfer (Jena University) about the ways that rotating bodies affect spacetime (and hence the propagation of light and particles in free fall) in their vicinity.
Are There Pictorial Examples of Covariant and Contravariant Vectors?
