I'm using OpenDNS for about half a year now.
At the beginning OpenDNS really pushed my internet experience. Since 4-6 weeks I have very bad respond times of the DNS service so that loading of many websites is very slow at the beginning (even if it's a big site like Germany's most popular IT news page www.heise.de). My connection is a VDSL line from T-Com (50 MBit/s down, 10 MBit/s up), which belongs to Deutsche Telekom AG (AS3320).
I know it may be the fault of my providers peering with London at first but I also think the current european location for OpenDNS is not ideal for Europe as a whole.
London is one of the gates when it comes to outer european internet traffic so the connection e.g. to the US is very good from London. But the inner european internet traffic is more concentrated at peering points like DE-CIX in Frankfurt/Germany, AMS-IX in Amsterdam/Netherlands or INXS in Munich/Germany. In fact Frankfurt and Amsterdam have very good connections to the US, too.
I don't really know about the respond time from the eastern european countries but I suppose their respond might be even more worse than mine. Especially countries which are new to the european union concentrate to improove their internet connectivity with connections to Frankfurt and Amsterdam.
I have the suggestion for you OpenDNS guys to focus on new locations on the european continent, preferably in Frankfurt or Amsterdam. For transitional it might be okay to improove the logical peerings from your location in London to important european ISPs.
I am very disappointed you are working hard on your systems performance within the US but have only one location for whole Europe which in addition has no ideal placing.
I think I'm going to switch back all my networks (business, home, family and friends) to my ISPs DNS servers as OpenDNS has become really unuseful for now.
Best regards from Munich
PS: Just recodnized that OpenDNS user statistic is in nose dive since Nov 6th - over 3 billion requests less which is over 30 percent!Thankful People: fastoffice -
I am located in Germany too, with ISP DTAG, ADSL 16000, but could not face the problems you are observing. To get a full picture of your DNS problem, you may follow the hints given in this contribution:
http://forums.opendns.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=2418#Item_4 -
Well, i am also a user of Deutsche Telekom and using OpenDNS slows down name resolution for me too, after entering a domain in Firefox there is 2 seconds delay, before loading starts.
Klaus -
To measure this objectively check the hints here: http://forums.opendns.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=2418
Still not having problems with OpenDNS (London server), using ADSL 16000 from Deutsche Telekom.
You will indeed see results like 15ms for DTAG DNS and 35ms for OpenDNS, but this is nothing which would slow down your surfing experience. If DNS query times would be signficantly more than 100ms, then you may become aware of it. -
I checked responce times with dig before posting, responce time is around 35 seconds for DT-DNS and OpenDNS, but in Firefox there is a 2 second delay when using OpenDNS. No idea where that comes from ...
Klaus -
Try also another browser to see if there's the same problem. However, the issue is most likely related to FF behavior or configuration.
Also, I'm using FF 184.108.40.206 without problems. -

- CommentTimeNov 22nd 2008
just to make it clear: i was using OpenDNS from several locations all over germany with different providers and faced into similar problems for all locations. and no, i'm not to stupid - i AM a proferssional. -
Gugge ma da! En Experde! Dann nutz es hald net!
Edit: So what are your DNS lookup/query times to OpenDNS and to DTAG? -
The slow DNS queries really annoyed me, so i started to google and http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=firefox+slow+dns brought back a lot of results. After reading, i did the following:
1. Type about:config in the address bar.
2. Type IPv6 in the filter box.
3. Double click network.dns.disableIPv6 to set the value to true.
Easy, but that did it for me, DNS lookups are much faster now.
KlausThankful People: fastoffice, rotblitz -
That's basically right, but would not be a good idea for me, as I am already pretty active in the IPv6 internet. Whatever, I do not have these problems, because I have real IPv6 connectivity, so DNS lookups do not time out.
You may consider to also set up real IPv6 connectivity, and your problems will go away, AND you opened the IPv6 internet for you. -
Well, i had running IPv6 for month (with http://www.sixxs.net/ as broker), but didn't see any advantages, so i stopped again.
Well, if you are interested in newsgroups, you can get them for FREE over IPv6:
e.g. news.ipv6.eweka.nl and newszilla6.xs4all.nl
Just one of the many advantages...
You need an IPv6 capable newsreader, of course, or 6tunnel to make IPv4 newsreaders work.
Also, you may try www.tunnelbroker.net as broker.Thankful People: nielsiejjj92

Ward backs Mooney to find the net
Colchester boss John Ward believes Carling Cup hero David Mooney will score goals for his side this season.The 21-year-old loan signing from Reading hit a quickfire brace to set up a 3-0 win at Hereford before picking up an ankle injury.Ward said: "I was sitting in the dugout saying to the lads on the bench we want to score the perfect goal and suddenly we practically did with the touch of Mooney."David is a strong finisher and I was told that he would get goals for us if we play him right and you can see why."David enjoyed his game but it's a pity he's got an ankle injury and could be doubtful for Saturday."But if we can get him back into this team there will be goals in him."

Angel Stadium of Anaheim, Anaheim, California
Eric Hosmer collects season-high 4 hits in Royals' win over Angels
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Danny Valencia was not about to let a sore left hand keep him from finishing his at-bat in the 13th inning. He gutted it out and came up with a key hit to help the Kansas City Royals outlast the Los Angeles Angels.
Valencia ignited a three-run rally with a leadoff double, before Jarrod Dyson replaced him on the bases and scored the go-ahead run on a throwing error by rookie reliever Mike Morin. The Royals went on to beat the Angels 7-4 Saturday night.
"We're trying to win games and lay it all out there. Anybody else would have done the same thing," Valencia said. "Fortunately, I got a hit there, because it would have looked even worse if I didn't."
Valencia felt discomfort on two earlier swings and was checked out by manager Ned Yost and a trainer. After convincing them he was all right, he lined Morin's 3-2 pitch off the fence in left-center and slid head first into second.
"There was a 3-1 pitch I fouled off and my hand slipped off the bat a little weird," Valencia said. "I told Ned, 'There's no way I'm coming out right now.' He said, `This is a big at-bat,' and I said, 'I know it's a big at-bat, but I've got this.' The first thought on my mind was not making someone come off the bench with a 3-2 count after sitting on the bench for four hours."
Dyson scored when Morin (0-1) fielded Alcides Escobar's sacrifice bunt and threw the ball past first base as second baseman Howie Kendrick ran over to take the throw.
"I got to it quick and Howie was still getting to first base," Morin said. "I had more time than I thought I did, and I was trying to guide the ball to meet him at the bag, but it sailed on me."
Norichika Aoki then hit an RBI single, and Billy Butler capped the scoring with his second sacrifice fly.
Aaron Crow (2-1) pitched two innings for the victory and Greg Holland got three outs for the save, ending the 4-hour, 53-minute marathon. Eric Hosmer tied a season high with four hits.
The Royals tied it in the seventh when Hosmer scored on a double-play grounder by Salvador Perez with the bases loaded. The run was charged to Sean Burnett, who faced only one batter and gave up Hosmer's leadoff single through the box. It was Burnett's second appearance since his comeback from elbow surgery last August.
Royals right-hander James Shields pitched six innings, giving up four runs and nine hits, including solo homers by Mike Trout and Erick Aybar.
"That's a good hitting team over there. They grind out at-bats, and they worked up my pitch count quite a bit today," Shields said. "But our bullpen did a phenomenal job. It's been good all season long, and today they showed why they're as good as they are."
Angels rookie Matt Shoemaker was charged with three runs -- two earned -- and eight hits in five innings while striking out six. The right-hander was making his third start since he was inserted into the rotation on May 13.
The Angels were trailing 3-0 when Aybar got them on the board in the fourth inning with his third homer of the season, a line drive that just made it into the first row of seats in the right-field corner after a leadoff double by Raul Ibanez.
Los Angeles pulled ahead 4-3 with two runs in the fifth. Trout led off with a towering drive into the rock pile beyond the fence in center, and Albert Pujols followed with another deep fly ball that looked like it was going out as well.
Left fielder Alex Gordon leaped above the bullpen fence and got his glove on it before it bounced off his cap, shoulder, chin and arm -- then landed in his glove while he was on the seat of his pants. Third-base umpire Andy Fletcher ruled it a catch, but manager Mike Scioscia challenged the call and Pujols ended up with a double after a video review.
"Somebody must have seen something on one of the angles," Yost said. "But on the replays we saw on the big screen, I sure couldn't tell if it hit the fence or not."
It was the 2,400th career hit for Pujols, who took third on a groundout and scored the go-ahead run on Shields' wild pitch to Aybar.
A two-out error by Trout in center field led to an unearned run during Kansas City's two-run third. Aoki and Hosmer opened the inning with singles, and Aoki scored on Butler's first sacrifice fly. One out later, Perez hit a sinking liner that broke off Trout's glove as he charged the ball on the dead run, and Lorenzo Cain hit an RBI single.
Game notes
Trout's error was his second this season, matching his total in 148 games in the outfield last year. ... Escobar has been successful on 43 of his past 44 stolen base attempts, including all 22 last season. ... For the second straight year, Trout's 10th homer of the season came against the Royals in his 47th game. ... Neither starting pitcher had a 1-2-3 inning.

Sunderland Force Their IRA Player To Delete His Twitter Account!
We've voiced our opinions on the Wearside "Poppy Boy" on NU-Mad. Now Sunderland have have had enough trying to defend him!
The Wearside club have reportedly forced winger James McClean to delete his Twitter account due to a controversial tweet involving the IRA.
The 23-year-old wrote on the social network site that his favourite song was 'The Broad Black Brimmer', which is a well-known IRA theme.
The message sparked DUP MP Gregory Campbell to accuse the Irishman of making 'contentious' comments due to the song's content.
The controversy is believed to have prompted Sunderland into telling McClean to close down his Twitter account, according to the Irish Independent.
McClean was recently at the centre of criticism when he refused to wear a poppy on his Sunderland shirt to mark Remembrance Day last year.
When he received death threats he contacted Northumberland police - which is an interesting action considering his anti-English beliefs.
When asked about his 'dislike' of poppies he replied: "I won't wear one on my shirt next year, either. I'm not cared what people say."

In reporting for The Christian Science Monitor's "brain gain" project, I met a cluster of young and bright reverse migrants here in a translucent glass-and-steel tech-park. Recent-hires at the British firm Element14, an online interface provider for electronic parts sales, they are part of the vanguard of Poland's brain gain. Their profiles tell as much about this city's bright future as the vibrant draw it is at the moment.
Jaroslaw Grabon, a software engineer, was born in Poland, but his family moved to Germany. Now, in an admittedly "wrenching" decision, he's come back to Krakow, leaving a flat and friends in Munich. He says he got a call from a Krakow headhunter for Shell, and decided, out of curiosity and interest in the country, to move back.
"I felt better in Poland than Germany in ways I can't easily explain, but it was a big decision. I left the whole family. I sent out 120 CVs and got 80 positive replies. Gdansk was a possibility but I decided on Shell. Then moved here [to Element14]."
Alessandro Lombardi couldn't get work in his native Italy – but, here, he's wired-in.
Tomasz Wasilewski worked in Warsaw for a Silicon Valley firm that employed many people like him, offspring of émigré Poles who went abroad earlier. But he was sold on Krakow and moved here, partly because of the Krakow buzz and partly for the experience.
A young Finnish woman, Marianne Kuukkanen, arrived this year and says that the city's multicultural environment requires looking "more closely at oneself, and I think this has made me more efficient and aware at my job and with others."

Pre-Overlord Chapter 3Chapter 3: Rude AwakeningHe woke up to the cage being banged, startled, he flew to the back of the wall. His eyes darted from side to side. Where was he? This place, it smelled so revolting! Ew! Smelly bad place! Smelly bad place! He held his nose trying to block out the smell."Look! The little red-thing is finally awake," a voice said, as the cage was banged around again.He cringed, pressing his body flat against the wall, his glowing chest panting hard.

Cham called out as he ignited the gunpowder trail as everyone cleared way out of the cellars and hid among the counters in the kitchen. There was a loud boom as the ground rattled and vibrated, making the pots and pans shake in place. Rollick looked over as smoke bellowed out from below. He coughed slightly as he waved the air to help clear it away."Did it work?""Let go see!" Cham said eagerly as he hurried down as the others soon caught up to the minion. They found Cham staring at the wall. They had managed to blow away most of the debris but the path was still blocked.Demeter walked up and growled, "Damnit!" he snarled.Qeb was beside himself. Grimm had to smack the minion upside the head to calm him down but he too, began to feel the fear for the Master rise up in his throat.

The minions around him were dying off faster than he realized. Even Gnarl himself was struggling. Malkor leaned his head back. He had shed down to his tunic and pants to help reduce sweating. The minions had been gone for at least a day, if his calculations were correct.It was only a matter of time before he completely lost it due to hallucinations. Minion blood was something he was not going to resort to. He'd rather die by dehydration than drink their blood, even if they sacrificed it for him. They'd have to force feed him.Gnarl walked up. "Sire?"Malkor slowly opened his blood-shot eyes. The normal red glow had dimmed down to a mere flicker, and the minion could see they were truly red, in a very bad way. "Sire, please!

5 Warbandbarnabumbleb | 02/04/2010 | See all barnabumbleb's reviews (5)In a brief overview;More or less an expansion to the previous game, using an improved game engine, a larger map and generally better everything else... really quite a good game though, the free trial is downloadable from taleworlds.comthe game is the only game which can be considered as a simulator of medieval combat with a totally orignal real time combat system that is skill based. it also accuratly protrays the different cultures, economy, social dynamics and politics within a feudal system.based in fictional land of Calradia where different kingdoms colide, this is a totally unprecedented free roaming with no forced storyline, you construct your own character and choose your own path through the world to success or failure.Warband includes a new multiplayer aspect to the series whereby you take part in larger battles that work in a similar way to C&C Renegade (if you know that one).To be quite frank everyone ive ever known to play this game series has fallen hoplessly in love with it, i urge you to download the trial version.... do it!
5 A very good gameJerryBowman | 02/05/2010 | See all JerryBowman's reviews (4)I brought this off taleworlds site but thats beside the point.This game a sequal to Mount&Blade(M&B) is a very good improvement this time a little bit more RPG'ing like trying to win the heart of a lady start your own faction this time instead of being a rebel better graphics but still not too much so you have to have a good computer so its PC Friendly :) Also whilst I dont play multiplayer it has a mulitplayer feature which I played in the beta and it was good fun so this game if you have played M&B its a must get, besides just think of the mods for this game.
5 Small but Mighty...R3YNOLDS | 10/04/2010 | See all R3YNOLDS's reviews (1)Skill based gameplay in a medievil setting that is very addictive! With more content on the horizon, this small games developer is going to do very well for itself. Considering the solid graphics, gameplay and overall design it is more than worth the price tag! Do look into this one, you'll be glad you did...
1 Mount and Blade Warbandcasperuk1980 | 12/04/2010 | See all casperuk1980's reviews (3)What a load of rubbish!! This game is identical to the first game, with slightly improved graphics. Absolutely nothing new besides the multi player, and is a disgrace that the producers of this game are selling it as a brand new game when it is the same game just slightly more polished. Disappointing really cos the first game was fun and I was hoping for more. :-(
5 Warband... and you'll live like a medieval mercenary.WingedCat | 13/09/2011 | See all WingedCat's reviews (1)Mount & Blade: Warband, don't have great differences from the prequel but is a game on it's own, something like a redifined version. Is not a game focused on graphic, that seem simple but also very nice, it's a game focused on a great gameplay, a mix between RPG and Tactical. The setting is not too much Fantasy, is more like Medieval but with Fantasy Factions based on historical cultures.A great Game!!!! ...Must have.

and their motions may be used to explain the properties of solids, liquids, and gases or the evaporation and condensation of water.
As students develop their understanding of the relationships between structure and function, they should begin to apply this knowledge when investigating phenomena that are unfamiliar to them. They recognize that often the first step in deciphering how a system works is to examine in detail what it is made of and the shapes of its parts. In building something—say, a mechanical system—they likewise apply relationships of structure and function as critical elements of successful designs.
Stability and Change
"Much of science and mathematics has to do with understanding how change occurs in nature and in social and technological systems, and much of technology has to do with creating and controlling change," according to the American Association for the Advancement of Science. "Constancy, often in the midst of change, is also the subject of intense study in science" [4].
Stability denotes a condition in which some aspects of a system are unchanging, at least at the scale of observation. Stability means that a small disturbance will fade away—that is, the system will stay in, or return to, the stable condition. Such stability can take different forms, with the simplest being a static equilibrium, such as a ladder leaning on a wall. By contrast, a system with steady inflows and outflows (i.e., constant conditions) is said to be in dynamic equilibrium. For example, a dam may be at a constant level with steady quantities of water coming in and out. Increase the inflow, and a new equilibrium level will eventually be reached if the outflow increases as well. At extreme flows, other factors may cause disequilibrium; for example, at a low-enough inflow, evaporation may cause the level of the water to continually drop. Likewise, a fluid at a constant temperature can be in a steady state with constant chemical composition even though chemical reactions that change the composition in two opposite directions are occurring within it; change the temperature and it will reach a new steady state with a different composition.
A repeating pattern of cyclic change—such as the moon orbiting Earth—can also be seen as a stable situation, even though it is clearly not static. Such a system has constant aspects, however, such as the distance from Earth to the moon, the period of its orbit, and the pattern of phases seen over time.
In designing systems for stable operation, the mechanisms of external controls and internal "feedback" loops are important design elements; feedback is

Australia is the land of the fair go: Swan
PUBLISHED: 15 May 2012 11:27:58 | UPDATED: 16 May 2012 11:35:54PRINT EDITION: 15 May 2012
As the three-day Australian Council of Trade Unions congress kicks off in Sydney, the treasurer Wayne Swan has told reporters the union movement plays a crucial role in creating the "fair go".
Asked whether he support ACTU calls for fewer casual and temporary jobs he said a fair system of industrial relations was crucial to developing Australia's economy.
"I respect the role that the union movement plays in our economy and in our society," he told reporters at a factory in Smithfield, western Sydney.
"Workers that are happy and satisfied in their job, businesses which are growing and producing more employment - that's what Australia is all about for me.
"And that's why I regard Australia as the land of the fair go."
He said he did not yet have a position on the 'millionaires' tax' the ACTU has demanded for Australia's top earners.
"I evaluate that when I see it," he said.

Artest and Odom becoming liabilities
Two pivotal players for the Lakers are costing their team crucial victories
BOSTON -- Two years ago, Ron Artest walked into the locker room at TD Garden and promised things would be different if he were on the Lakers. He told Lamar Odom in the hallway, Brian Shaw in the training room and, most memorably, Kobe Bryant in the shower.
He told them all he wanted to join the Lakers to help them win a championship and beat the Celtics.
As Artest sat in the same locker room Sunday, one of the first players dressed after the Celtics beat the Lakers 92-86 to take a 3-2 series lead in the NBA Finals, he thought he had partially fulfilled his promise.
"I thought we played pretty well," said Artest, who had seven points on 2-of-9 shooting and two rebounds. "The games that we lost here, they were close. It wasn't like a couple years ago where the game was a blowout. We played good. We played tough on the road. We played some competitive games."
Artest is known to be a little out there, but if he thought the Lakers played well Sunday and actually took solace in playing "competitive" games in Boston rather than getting a win in Game 5, he has gone completely off the deep end.
While reporters surrounded his locker, Artest sat in silence and perused the postgame stat sheet. He dragged his finger across Bryant's 38-point line and looked at the other numbers on the page before putting it down and looking up.
"No matter what it says on this stat sheet, we did it together," Artest said. "We did all this together."
That's true, but unfortunately for the Lakers, Artest and his frontcourt teammates didn't add much to the collective total, and their absence is a big reason the Lakers are now one loss from losing to the Celtics in the Finals again.
Beside Artest's seven points, Odom came off the bench and added eight points, while Pau Gasol had 12 points on 5-of-12 shooting (one of his worst games as a Laker).
It was understandable that Andrew Bynum (who continues to play through a torn meniscus in his right knee) struggled, adding only six points and one rebound to the mix, but the Lakers needed to get much more from Artest, Odom and Gasol to have any chance of defeating the Celtics in Game 5.
Despite shooting 39.7 percent from the field and having only a single player on the roster score in double digits until late in the fourth quarter, the Lakers still had a chance to cut the Celtics' lead to three points and make it a one-possession game with 43 seconds left when Artest was fouled on a breakaway layup by Paul Pierce. Artest, however, proceeded to miss both free throws, and Pierce's pass to Rajon Rondo for a layup on the other end of the court moments later sealed the game.
For more about the Lakers, plus coverage of the complete Los Angeles sports scene, visit ESPNLosAngeles.com. »
"We could have won tonight before I missed those two free throws and didn't give a chance to let Kobe do what he do," said Artest, who hit only one of four free throw attempts in the fourth quarter. "That was a backbreaker."
On a night when Bryant took the team on his back, scoring 23 straight points during a stretch from the first half to the second half, he didn't ask his teammates to do much. Apparently making a free throw here or there, or getting a defensive stop now and then was too much to ask.
"When Kobe gets hot like that, then he's hot like that," said Odom, who was invisible through three quarters before scoring six points and adding five rebounds in the fourth quarter. "You can't deny it. We just needed to get stops as a team and we weren't able to do that."
Odom's inconsistency and apathetic demeanor are often focal points when the Lakers lose, because he is a bellwether. When the Lakers look like a well-oiled machine, Odom's stat line shows it. When the Lakers look broken down and out of sync, as they did at crucial times Sunday, Odom's stat line reflects that as well. Odom realizes this but disagrees with anyone who wants to say he doesn't care enough to give it his all every night.
"When we lose a game in November, I'm pissed off," he said. "If we played checkers and I lose, I'm pissed off. If we played a game on PlayStation or Xbox and I lose, I want to play you again. I'm always upset when we lose, but I can't hold on to it that long because we have a game we have to win on Tuesday. I have to put things behind me. Win or lose in the playoffs, I have to move on."
ESPNLosAngeles.com chronicled the Lakers during the NBA playoffs with photos and game coverage. The gallery »
When Odom was asked how a team as experienced and playoff-savvy as Los Angeles could have as many mental lapses as it did Sunday, repeatedly allowing the Celtics easy layups and open looks, the New York Yankees fan and Boston agitator in him came out.
"It happens," he said. "This is sports. Ask [Bill] Buckner."
Maybe, but Buckner probably isn't the best sports figure to be aligning yourself with heading into a crucial Game 6.
"It's not over," Odom said as he left the locker room. "It's their third win, so it's not like the trophy is theirs. They have to take it on our home court. We're ready to go home and do what we have to do on our home court."
No, it's not over. But to keep the series alive, what Odom, Artest and Gasol "have to do" is a whole lot more than what they did in Boston on Sunday.

RE: Propriety of circuit court judges, who preside at drug court, to attend a conference for drug court and other types of remedial courts, where the conference will be paid for by drug court fees.
A county solicitor has requested or suggested that the local circuit court judges who preside in drug court attend a national training conference for drug court and other types of remedial courts. The attendance fees for the judges' attendance at the conference would come from the county's drug court fees, not the solicitor's operating budget. A circuit court judge inquires into the propriety of attending a conference under these circumstances.
A circuit court judge may attend a national training conference for drug court where the attendance fees are paid for by the drug court.
A judge must uphold the integrity and independence of the judiciary. Canon 1, SCACR (Supp. 1998). Canon 2 further states that a judge must avoid all impropriety and appearance of impropriety. However, However, Canon 4D allows a judge to engage in extra-judicial activities concerning the law, the legal system, and the administration of justice.
Here, the national training conference on drug courts and other -- courts is clearly an activity concerning the law, the legal system, and the administration of justice. The fees for the judges' attendance will be paid for by the drug court itself, and not from an individual, agency, or entity that might appear before the judge thereby, causing a conflict of interest. Thus, unlike previous opinions addressing related inquiries,[1] there is no conflict of interest or appearance of impropriety. Therefore, the judges may attend the conference as long as their attendance fees are paid for by the drug court.
