Canonical tags and internal Google search
Of note, you can also customize your built-in internal Google site search: http://www.google.com/sitesearch/ "Customize search box and results using XML"

301 redirect
I need to 301-redirect about 25 product pages because I'm having a content management system installed in part of the site. What's the definitive answer on this -- is some link authority lost along a 301 link? These page rank superbly & are high-traffic, so I can't afford to take unnecessary risks.

Website Structure - What works best for passing the Link Juice?
I'd check out Bill Slawski's SEO By The Sea generally, and this post in particular: http://www.seobythesea.com/?p=5168 I wouldn't get "too manipulative" with CSS. I know this advice is going to sound generic, but I'd think about what links are most likely to get clicked by your visitors. Those are the ones that Google wants to give more credit.

Google indexing page with description
You pages are setting 'nosnippet' in the META robots tag, meaning the search engines are instructed to not display a description for the page and to suppress the cache link. Remove that setting and you should see a difference after Google updates your page in the index. Remember that Google will crawl and index your site based on its own schedule so you will have to be a little patient.

Is z-indexing a black-hat trick?
You're good then. It's the negative z index implementations that have issues.

Getting rid of duplicate content with rel=canonical
Thank you both, much appreciated. Their rankings have suffered in the last two weeks and this coincides with their developers creating all this duplicate content - let's see if this fixes that issue! Thanks again.

4xx Client Error
Is your site verified in Google? Try logging into Google Webmaster Tools and looking at the 404 report there. It often will list the incoming link for a 404 error.
