S.F. Vegan Drinks is back on Thursday! New venue, new drinks! »
C'mon, I know you missed all the awkward mingling and the chance to catch of glimpse of the hot ladies of VegNews and Vegansaurus! So hot. I'm stoked it's in a new venue this time around (though I do love Martuni's, change is good!) and the cocktail special will be vegan white Russians! I'm so there.
When: Thursday, Jan. 26, 6 to 8 p.m.
Where: Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, 2323 Mission St. at 19th
Drinks: $3 bottled beer, $4 well drinks, and $5 vegan white Russians!
Food: Sweet potato tater tots, beer-battered onion rings, veggie burgers, and vegan sliders!
I just read on Yelp that they have tater tots cooked in truffle oil! For real?! Five baskets, please! It's cool, I'll share — that way I can talk your ear off about my upcoming trip to Chicago!*
*Hear that, Chicago vegans? I'll be in your neck of the woods on Sunday, hopping all over Wicker Park (for the Handlebar and Sultan's Market, obvi!) What
an exhausting a fun week this is going to be!

El Nuevo Mexicano has vegan food! Chicago, I'm coming back! »
Not to live, just a visit. I simply refuse to attempt to survive another winter in the Midwest. I don't care how delicious the vegan food is, I cannot take it!
On a side note, Virgin America has just announced flights to Chicago! I can fly on the cheap and cush to go visit my old stomping grounds! On my most recent trip outta town, I discovered Plant Cafe at Virgin America's new Terminal 2 at SFO. Vegan cupcakes at an airport? Who says airports are no fun?
There are so many reasons to visit Chitown—Old Style, friends, amazing falafel sandwiches, and now, El Nuevo Mexicano in Lakeview has announced new vegan options! I'll take a pitcher of margaritas and the entire vegan menu, thanks!
Feast your eyes on a few of the selections, then buy your plane ticket. September is a really
tolerable beautiful month for Chicago.
The peeps at El Nuevo Mexicano credit Mercy for Animals as the inspiration behind their new vegan options! Mad props, MFA!
El Nuevo Mexicano is located at 2914 N. Clark St. in Lakeview, Chicago.

Patxi's Chicago Pizza is opening in the Inner Sunset! »
So many incredible and amazing things come out of Chicago. Top 5: The Handlebar, Sultan's Market, Mercy for Animals, me (I'm actually from the Bay Area, but I lived there for three years) and CHICAGO-STYLE PIZZA! I had it a few times before I went vegan, and man, is it decadent (by which I mean super, amazingly delicious)! Now that I live in San Francisco, I no longer have to go without, because everything is veganized here!
Although I haven't eaten at Patxi's Chicago Pizza yet, that my friends, is about to change. They are opening up a new location in the Inner Sunset! That's almost right by my apartment! I can get some exercise walking over there before I gorge on a 5,000-calorie pizza (junk food is junk food—actually I'm TOTALLY in denial about that. The onion rings I just devoured were HELLA HEALTHY. My body is a temple and it is just thriving!).
Patxi's is opening its fourth location late this summer/possibly fall, at Ninth Avenue and Irving Street. My apartment JUST SO happens to be conveniently located between Escape From New York and the future Patxi's. I can get my daily serving of fruits and vegetables from pizza alone, can't I? Yes? Goodbye outside world, I'm only leaving the house to eat pizza. Or pay the delivery guy. Or go to work to pay for said pizza. Actually, this is beginning to sound like the life I currently lead.
While trying to find vegan Chicago-style pizza IN Chicago, I stumbled upon this recipe from Quarrygirl. FUCK YES.
Patxi's will be located at 822 Irving St. and its first East Bay location will open June 15 in Lafayette, at 3577 Mt. Diablo Blvd.! Lafayette?
OMG, how could I forget about OLD STYLE??? I wonder if Patxi's can get a hold of this delicious beverage for the complete Chicago experience?

DUI Collision on Miller Pike in Marion County
Date of News Release: 11/12/2010
(Marion County, Ky.) -- Trooper Chris Saunders is working a collision that occurred at 1805 hours, 1 mile West of Lebanon on Miller Pike. The collision occurred when a 2000 Toyota, operated by Nicholas Blandford, age 53, of Lebanon, was traveling Eastbound on Miller Pike. Blandford observed a vehicle backing into his path on Miller Pike and in an attempt to avoid colliding with the vehicle, applied his brakes and swerved. This caused the Blandford vehicle to leave the roadway and overturn several times before coming to final rest against a tree. Blandford was belted at the time of the collision and was transported by Marion County EMS to Spring View Hospital due to his injuries. Alcohol is believed to be a factor in the collision and Blandford was cited to court for DUI (Aggravating Circumstances) 1st Offense. Trooper Saunders was assisted at the scene by Trooper John Adams, Marion County EMS and the Marion County Fire Department.

Gamecast: April 9th, 2010 - Cubs at Reds
Carlos Silva (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Homer Bailey (0-0, 0.00 ERA)
The Cubs finally got the monkey off their back, but they didn't really actually break the slump at the plate. Granted, the season is still very young, but watching in person the last three games gave me a little glimpse into the season.
- Derrek Lee's bat looks slow. I know he's a slow starter, but he didn't look good once at the plate. Everything he hit was to right and only warning track power. He's 34 and this could get ugly.
- Ryan Theriot needs a hit. He really didn't do much in the series with the glove or bat. His SF was was barely a SF only because Nate McClouth can't throw.
- John Grabow....eh...its been covered already.
The Cubs traveled north last night and will play three with the Reds before heading home for the opener on Monday. The Cubs really could use a couple days in the Great American Home Run Park. It could do the offense good.
On the mound, the Cubs will send Carlos Silva, which is most likely an audition for the No. 5 starter role for when Ted Lilly returns. We will see if the "The Hut" can make us forget Milton Bradley.
Who's Hot
Cubs Starters - Ryan Dempster and Randy Wells threw really well the last two nights and saved the bullpen a little after the Monday opener.
Sean Marshall - He's looked great, but lets hope Lou doesn't run him out there too much that it leads to an injury.
Who's Not
Soto, Lee, Theriot, Soriano, Hill, Baker......I could keep going, but you get the picture.
The Cubs should win this series, but it starts with game one. Hopefully, the bats wake up and the pitching keeps it going, well everybody except John Grabow.

Welcome to our new home
As you can see, we've now launched version 3 of the We Got a Pulse! website. It's a significant change on the last one, which was ever-so moody but sleek. We've gone a bit brighter now, to reflect how friendly we really are and have opted to use a blog engine so that we can frequently and easily make updates to the site to let you know what's going on at our HQ.
We've also got some new digs in central town near Brighton station at Floor 6, 3 Alexandra Villas, Brighton, BN1 3RE. Hand-in-hand with that is our new freephone number, so you can chat to us any time on 0800 6125 711.
Our logo has also had a little update, which is a bit more self-contained now and should be a little more convenient in various contexts. We've also changed our slogan to 'Demand. Nothing. Less.' It's pretty self-explanatory. We strive for nothing less than perfection. Most of the time, that's on our own terms! Even when the client is happy, we still ensure that projects live up to our own personal standards, we're just picky like that!
We hope you enjoy the new site and have fun browsing through our projects. Feel free to give us feedback via the contact page.
Why not take a look at our lifecycle up to this version:
Version 1

Project Profile: So Hairdressing Promo Movie
We love a little trip up to Maidstone, so we were delighted when trendy salon So Hairdressing asked us to come up and film a promotional movie for the new website we were building. They wanted something a bit stylish, fast-paced and immersive to capture the vibe in the salon. Here's what we came up with:

Project Profile: Godfrey Branding
Godfrey Investments wanted a logo which accentuated the 'O', representing their 360 degree service brand. The 360 degree symbolises their involvement in the complete life cycle of one of their properties. From finding the land, designing the property, building it, selling/renting it and maintaining it. Godfrey produce high-end properties at affordable prices, and wanted the type to be solid and robust, whilst seeming trendy and stylish at the same time. Here are some concept ideas that we came up with:
Upon delivery of the logo to Godfrey, the logo has been seen on:
- Football ground sponsor boards
- Hoardings
- Letterheads
- Business Cards
- Flyers
- Editorials
- Scaffolding canvases

Project Profile: Elysium III
We don't often listen to classical music in the office, but once Bright Artist Management got in contact with us, we were all pleasing our ears with the sounds of Elysium III. A female trio of classical singers, who were spotted at the Classical Brits last year, are sure to make the big time with the release of their debut album 'La Bella Sinfonia' (that's 'Beloved Symphony' for the few of you who don't speak Italian). To mark the launch of the album, we were approached to produce the official Elysium III website, complete with photo galleries, music samples from the new album, biographies, Twitter feeds and the rest of it.
Thankfully, some assets of the girls looking lovely, allowed us to produce a very elegant design which the client was very happy with. Be sure to check them out as well as the site!
Project Profile: ETS Partnership
This was a competitive project to obtain, but we were confident in our pitch that we'd win the work. ETS Partnership were after a redesign after they'd grown out of their previous site. They wanted to jazz things up a bit with a movie on the homepage, as well as slideshows throughout the site. They asked for a breakdown of all the sectors they cover and wanted to make sure they start interacting with existing and potential clients through social networking.
Sure enough, they got everything they asked for, including a handy Twitter feed and Facebook page.
Project Profile: Sorcery Intro Movie
The family over at BrightAI approached us with a nice little project for their client Steve Jackson, co-author of the popular Fighting Fantasy Sorcery book series. They'd been approached to produce an iPhone version of the book and decided to outsource the intro movie of the application to us. We happily obliged, as we are partial to a bit of video editing and design. The brief was for it to run in a similar vein to the Marvel Comics movie intro you see before feature films. Yet using artwork from the books to convey a darker, more medieval feel to it. We feel that we achieved this, and BAI, as well as Steve Jackson were delighted with the end product.
You can download the app from here and check out the movie in all it's glory on your iPhone. If you dont have an iPhone (get one), otherwise just watch the movie below.

Project Profile: Higar Engineering
The 'fellas over at Higar were ready to leave our first design behind, which had served them a good 4 years, and go for something a bit more cutting edge. The site was to become a lot more refined and clear in terms of page titles for the user. They wanted a new colour scheme as well, introducing a touch of green to bounce off the metallic look on the site. A lovely slideshow to welcome the user was implemented, and with the site requiring minimal updates, a CMS was scrapped in further of scheduled maintenance updates from ourselves. Go and check out the site.
Project Profile: Dave Hicks Pro Fit Tool
Dave Hicks Golf are one of our longest running clients. So when they asked to produce a microsite for one of their state-of-the-art fitting tools, we said: "No problem!". This was to give customers a better insight to DHG's flagship product: The DH Pro Fit Tool. They wanted something quite clean with a few simple pages that they would get updated as and when without a CMS. Some key features they wanted were testimonials and a run-down of all the packages that they offer. It's a pretty impressive piece of kit and we believe the website reflects this.
Project Profile: Troggs Flash Viral Website
PPR Publicity and Universal Music contacted us to create a website for the iconic 60′s band The Troggs. With their upcoming release of their Greatest Hits album, they wanted to create a viral site that would get people talking and in-turn, buying the album. Having unearthed a legendary recording studio tape, which involves the band cursing each other every name under the sun, the client thought it would be great to create a soundboard, in which the user could click various lines from the tape and listen to the samples. At the same time, you'd have all the Troggs mugs on show with their mouths chattering away in a South Park-type style.
As you can imagine, we had loads of fun making this site, and the assets never stopped being funny. Be sure to have a go yourself (it's hilarious) whilst listening to some of the Troggs classics like 'Wild Thing', 'Love is All Around' and 'A Girl Like You'.

The recent news that the estimated cost of an ongoing Boston-area subway-line extension has risen from $1.4 billion to nearly $2 billion surprised exactly no one. The more-than-two-decade history leading up to this most recent cost overrun contains a lifetime's worth of cautionary tales for state and local governments.
Almost everyone reading this should have some familiarity with Boston's "Big Dig." After all, you probably helped pay for it. The project included taking down an unsightly elevated roadway and running it underground, extending the Massachusetts Turnpike to Boston's Logan Airport and constructing a bridge over the Charles River. When it was finally completed in 2007 (nine years late), the original $2.8 billion price tag had swollen to $14.6 billion, more than a quarter of it covered by federal taxpayers.
By 2050, more than 75 percent of the world's population will live in urban areas. But without substantive changes in governance, city halls will be unable to meet the needs of this growing population.
Infusing government operations with the latest technological advances is no panacea, but it suggests the most promising way out of business-as-usual governance. The data-driven revolution cannot come soon enough. Too many local governments are mired in century-old, rule-bound structures that stifle collaboration and problem solving. And citizens, whose trust in government is at an all-time low, have little sense that they can play a role in the social fabric of their cities.
Inspired by successful efforts in Brazil and other countries, several American communities have undertaken pilot efforts to allow citizens to directly decide how public funds are spent in their neighborhoods. However, one of the biggest concerns raised by critics of this approach is that not enough citizens actually participate to make the efforts meaningful and legitimate.
How to address this concern? Expanding the use of social media in the participatory budgeting process holds promise, according to a new report for the IBM Center for the Business of Government.
Government owns 10 to 30 percent of the footprint of most cities, and the public sector is the nation's largest property owner. But property management is hardly a core function of government, so it's not surprising that many jurisdictions don't even have an accurate inventory of their own property. The data is often scattered across the various agencies in charge of different parcels.
Much public land is underutilized and expensive for taxpayers. The Office of Management and Budget estimates, for example, that it costs about $1.7 billion per year to maintain and secure underutilized federal properties. For municipal governments, there's also foregone property tax revenue and wasted opportunities to use the land to support local economic development.
The story has played out repeatedly in recent years. As unfunded pension liabilities rise, financially stressed local governments seek to move employees toward 401(k)-type retirement systems to get out from under crippling long-term commitments, but public employee unions fight to maintain their defined-benefit plans.
As the municipal landscape becomes more fiscally precarious, public employees might want to rethink the traditional strategy.

WALTHAM, Mass., July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Millennium Research Group (MRG), the global authority on medical technology market intelligence, over 30,000 hip arthroscopy procedures were performed in 2008 -- a number set to grow at an average annual growth rate of over 15% over the next five years. This will catapult procedure volumes to more than 70,000 annually by 2013, according to MRG's new US Markets for Arthroscopy Devices 2009 report.
This notable growth will result from the increasing number of physicians being trained to perform hip arthroscopy, which is used for indications ranging from the diagnosis and treatment of hip pain to the removal of loose bodies in the hip joint. The expanding number of trained surgeons performing hip arthroscopy is driven in part by the establishment of more sports medicine fellowship programs. Performing hip arthroscopy is also very lucrative for surgeons due to favorable reimbursement rates for hip procedures.
"As a result of several factors, more surgeons will be trained to offer hip arthroscopy, increasing patient accessibility to procedures," says Lexie Code, Manager of MRG's Endoscopy division. "Companies such as ArthroCare, CONMED Linvatec, Smith & Nephew, and Stryker have also been developing specialized devices for hip arthroscopy, including extended-length arthroscopes, radiofrequency probes, and power shaver blades. Increased use of these higher-priced specialty devices will have a positive effect on market value over the next five years."
MRG's US Markets for Arthroscopy Devices 2009 report covers the markets for shoulder suture anchors, knee ligament reconstruction, powered shaver disposables, radiofrequency (RF) probes, fluid management disposables, meniscus repair devices, arthroscopes, rotator cuff reinforcement (RCR) grafts, knee cartilage repair, hand instruments, and reprocessed arthroscopic devices.

Cochise TrailIn addition to granite boulders, mesic vegetation and all-around scenic beauty, this trail offers hikers a chance to walk in the footsteps of the great Apache warrior for whom it's named.
By Robert Stieve
Cochise is buried in the Dragoon Mountains. That's the conventional wisdom, but no one knows for sure where he was laid to rest. He was interred secretly by his followers, and only one white man, Thomas J. Jeffords, knew the exact location. Knowing or not knowing the whereabouts of the chief's remains won't affect your ability to enjoy this hike, but the mystery does add intrigue to an already-alluring place that served as a refuge for the Apache warrior during his 12-year battle with the United States Army.

Two Strikes For the I-root
Here we go again. In March we wrote a blog entitled Accidentally Importing Censorship which described how incorrect DNS answers were returned in response to certain queries to the I-root. The problem was tracked down to a single instance of the I-root located in China. Queries to this server for domains blocked in China, such as Facebook, would return seemingly arbitrary answers. As we noted, countries, and even companies, can impose their own standards on the Internet and block anything they want. This story was only noteworthy because those blocks (via bad DNS answers) became visible outside of China. Well, guess what? We are once again seeing the Beijing I-root from outside of China.
Let's start with a few disclaimers and some background. First and foremost, the sky is not falling. Getting the wrong DNS answer, even when querying the Chinese I-root instance is an extremely rare event. Go back and read our earlier blog to see the exact alignment of the stars that would be necessary. The fact that it is so rare is what kept the problem from being detected for weeks. However, as we noted in that earlier blog, given the broad swath of the Internet potentially querying the Chinese I-root instance, someone was bound to stumble on a bad DNS answer and, as a result, not be able to friend their pals. This is exactly what happened and is what brought the problem to light.
Second, the fine folks at Netnod, who provide the exceptional and free I-root service, vigorously defended their services in China, asserting they provide the same DNS answers regardless of location. We have no reason to think otherwise.
Third, it's quite easy to see incorrect answers from DNS servers in China yourself, whether or not you happen to live there. This has nothing to do with any of the root name servers. Just pick your favorite DNS server based in China and ask it about Facebook. Here is an example of repeated queries from the Linux command line from a US-based machine to a China Telecom DNS server.
dig @dns1.chinatelecom.com.cn. www.facebook.com. ... www.facebook.com. 11556 IN A 220.127.116.11 www.facebook.com. 24055 IN A 126.96.36.199 www.facebook.com. 38730 IN A 188.8.131.52
None of these IP addresses has anything to do with Facebook. In fact, addresses starting with 37 haven't even been allocated by IANA as of this writing.
Of course, if you don't live in China, you probably don't use a Chinese DNS server directly. The problem is that we all use the root name servers and they are spread throughout the world. Thanks to the vagaries of Internet routing, you may end up querying any of them, regardless of where you live and where they are hosted. Thus, if you live outside of China and just happen to query a root name server hosted in China, your queries will pass through what is known as the The Great Firewall, and hence will be subject to any restrictions it imposes.
Details, Details
While doing some research for next week's NANOG meeting in San Francisco, we revisited the time line for the March I-root announcements from China and couldn't help but notice the problem resurfacing on June 3rd. The I-root resolves to 126.96.36.199, which is announced by AS 29216 (which is dedicated to the I-root) as both 188.8.131.52/23 and 220.127.116.11/24. From there, these prefixes travel via Netnod's AS 8674 and then onto the general Internet. Since Netnod anycasts these prefixes from dozens of locations around the world, we expect to see them via any number of BGP adjacencies to AS 8674 and, in fact, we do. Around 80 different ASes adjacent to Netnod's AS 8674 see the two I-root prefixes and, in turn, propagate them onward.
What we do not expect to see are mainland Chinese ASes adjacent to AS 8674 propagating these prefixes outside of China. This is what we did see in March 2010 and it implies Internet users outside of China could be directed to the I-root instance inside of China. Unfortunately, this problem has returned. We see AS 8674 passing just 188.8.131.52/24 off to AS 24151 and then AS 7497, both of which are associated with the China Internet Network Information Center. From there, the prefix travels via Pacnet (AS 10026), formerly Asia Netcom, and PCCW (AS 3491) out to the general Internet. This started just before 10:20 UTC on June 3rd and is still ongoing as of the date of this blog.
As we noted last time, to get a bogus DNS response outside of China, you not only have to query the I-root, you have to query the Chinese instance of it. To measure potential impact, we looked at the originating country of all prefixes downstream of any provider selecting the Chinese I-root. We then computed the percentage of these relative to the total number of prefixes in the country. A graph of the top dozen from the March incident is shown below, followed by those from this current (and ongoing) incident.
Not surprisingly, most of the affected countries are in Asia, as before, but there are important differences from the last event. Russia, India and Taiwan all entered the top twelve, while Pakistan, New Zealand and Bangladesh have dropped out. The impact on the countries in both lists is roughly similar, except that US impact went up by a factor of 10. Potentially impacted US states include Florida and California, making up approximately half of the US total. In addition, Singapore increased from 73% to 96%.
Censorship is a fact of life on the Internet today. But unfortunately, given the open, trust-based nature of the network, such censorship can easily spread beyond its intended boundaries. While individuals can do little to avoid such issues, there are actions network and system administrators can take. Filtering root name server announcements with Chinese ASes on the path is one approach. Never querying the I-root is another. Such actions would guard against this particular problem, but probably not the next one — whatever it might be. Ultimately, we are all in this together. We depend on each country or organization not to inadvertently or intentionally interfere with any other. All other paths lead down a very slippery slope.
That one sees the China node from I-root outside china shouldn't be a suprise to anyone. Things like that happen old the time. For quite a while I used to see the J-node from Korea instead of the much closer one from Frankfurt or here in NL. I fully agree that DNSSEC is the proper way to find out that there has been tampered with DNS reponses.
To answer my question: There is no evidence that responses from I-root in Beijing are tampered. Editor's note: Here is one from the day after our blog posting, where www.facebook.com returns an invalid IP address from Korea Telecom. We will be presenting our complete results at NANOG49 in San Francisco. See you there! # dig @i.root-servers.net. www.facebook.com. A ; >> DiG X.X.X >> @i.root-servers.net. www.facebook.com. A ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER
Does the F-root and J-root have the same issues? If not, how do they avoid it? Editor's note: Great question. According to http://root-servers.org/, instances of the F, I and J root servers are hosted in China. However, for F and J, we see no evidence of their routing announcements leaving China. For the I-root, such announcements are leaving China.
So, I tend to believe Kurt statement that they run validated data. So, the great firewall of china likes to molest DNS queries. This is clearly an issue --- and the i-root should be moved or turned off if that is occuring. The really, really, really, concerning part is: > None of these IP addresses has anything to do with Facebook. In fact, addresses starting with 37 haven't even been allocated by IANA as of this writing. Is the great firewall of china then using unallocated space? What does 18.104.22.168 route to in China? That's way more interesting a question.
To address some of the statements and comments above. To the best of my knowledge the i.root-servers.net instance in Beijing has always been reachable outside China. All packets that traverse the Internet are vulnerable to spoofing, modification or blockage by any intermediate party anywhere along the path. For DNS the solution to this problem is DNSSEC, and has nothing to do with any routing paths you see. Instead we should all make sure we enable DNSSEC validation. As more parts of the DNS hierarchy get's signed, the more protection we will have. This will give you the chance to notice all attempts to spoof DNS replies anywhere from a signed zone. Any form of RPKI will not protect against incorrect DNS data, only DNSSEC will. I would also like to publicly deny the claim that we have been paid or asked to modify DNS zone data by China or anyone else. Nor have we ever served any other root zone data than as we have received it from IANA. Kurt Erik Lindqvist CEO Netnod
@Gen - I've known Kurtis a long time, and I know for a fact that he would never participate in any kind of censorship-related activities. I think it's a reasonable inference that there are most probably middleboxes within the Chinese networks which are intercepting the DNS queries in question and are giving out bogus answers for purposes of censorship and/or surveillance. But the one thing I know *for a fact* is that Kurtis is not the type of person to participate in nor countenance such shenanigans within his span of control.
The lesson is: use DNSSEC. DNSSEC prevents tampering with DNS responses, even by the great firewall. ICANN will finally make a DNSSEC signed root zone available shortly and all root name servers will immediately publish it. Make use of that feature!
This is an important post that highlights both the censorship that is ongoing in China as well as the Swedish company that is being paid by the Chinese government to implement this censorship. However, the post is pretty difficult to understand for anyone who is not in the DNS world. If you can, in the future, append a summary in plain English at the beginning of these posts, they would have a great reach and impact.
Actually, you can send DNS requests to IP's in China (it doesn't matter if there's even a DNS server on the host) and get back spoofed DNS responses. Actually, you can even set the TTL so that the packet won't even reach the destination (simply enter China's IP space) and it will send back spoofed DNS responses. This post is a bit old, but still valid last time I checked a few weeks ago. http://www.nartv.org/2008/09/03/dns-and-the-gfw/
California being potentially impacted makes sense, but Florida seems odd. Shouldn't Florida be topologically far enough from China to not hit the Chinese I-root instance? Editor's Note: The cyber world doesn't map very well to the physical one. Who sees this depends more on the peers of China Telecom, the dominate in-country provider.
I think it is important to note that seeing the route of the I-root server in China reappearing in BGP does _NOT_ tell if the responses from there are being tampered with. It is perfectly plausible that Netnod operates the I-root server from out of Beijing on a global scale and not just locally. Did you see any tampered responses from that instance in Beijing? Editor's Note: See response to last comment.
I would first like to note that none from Renesys has made contact with us or tried to work with us on analyzing what Renesys claims to observe. Netnod has since some days activated the global node in Beijing again, in line with what we have communicated as our goals in the past. The node is a global node so our prefixes will propagate as far as our peers advertise them. This is true for all global anycast nodes. All our instances (including Beijing) serve exactly the root zone data, as we receive it from the IANA through the agreed distribution channels at Verisign, and in no case do we make distinctions between clients - neither based on network topology, nor on source address. We have not observed, nor received any reports on, incorrect DNS replies from any of our anycast nodes since re-enabling the site in Beijing. The report above does not seem to claim this either, nor does it provide any such data. Given the lack of such data we do not see any issue with us re-enabling the Beijing node, but we would appreciate direct reports to firstname.lastname@example.com if such are indeed seen. Kurt Erik Lindqvist CEO Netnod firstname.lastname@example.com Editor's Note: The blog states that the Beijing I-root instance is clearly reachable from outside of China and hence, queries to it from outside the country cannot be considered reliable since they pass through the Great Firewall. The same applies to any DNS server located in China as the Facebook example shows. As noted, this is not a Netnod issue, nor are there any significant routing differences between the two I-root incidents. If there are routes, you can get there. The lesson is to not query DNS servers operating across an infrastructure has been shown to give unreliable results.

|22nd September 2014
About meI was born in Athens. Originally, I trained to be a ballet dancer but injury intervened. I studied psychology, specialising in counselling. After some years working as a psychologist, I moved to London and did an MA in Dance Movement Therapy at Goldsmiths College, University of London.
My experience includes work in the NHS (Maudsley Hospital), private therapy centres, care homes, children's centres, as well as film and acting schools. As a practitioner who is extremely interested in cultural diversity in modern societies, I have been leading workshops for colleagues on how therapists can work with clients from minority backgrounds, whether ethnic, sexual or physical. I have co-founded Open Wings, a community interest company for the promotion of arts therapies in deprived communities and with ethnic minority groups.
I also work as a clinical researcher based in London with the Psychology Department of the University of Heidelberg in Germany. We are looking at body memory and how this affects communication and emotion. In addition, I conduct numerous workshops, trainings and seminars for organisations in the field.
I am not theoretically rigid and deliberately use a range of models, including the person-centred and psychodynamic approaches. I believe that there is a special kind of 'equality' in the therapy relationship so I am not authoritarian or dogmatic. My focus is on helping clients to develop their interpersonal skills, sense of inner balance, and positive self-image.
Above all, I trust that the human imagination can contribute to working things out when all seems lost. In an era of financial stringency, I believe there is a power in the imagination that can contribute to the management of economic, social and practical problems.

I am sure that many here and elsewhere are overjoyed with the popularity surge that Anabaptism is receiving of late, especially those that stem from Mennonite origins, since it has given them a means to experience more of the glare of publicity.
Some most likely think that this is a good thing, after all others are becoming familiar with that legendary group. Yet I feel that people need to be concerned, particularly when individuals are using Anabaptism for a denominational agenda?
In a blog-post entitled An Anabaptist Infatuation Amongst Some Southern Baptists by Joshua Breland he writes:
There has been an increase of blogging recently regarding how great and wonderful the Anabaptists were/are and how much we modern day Southern Baptists owe to the so called "radical reformers." Often the Anabaptist "hoorahs" are joined with condemnatory remarks about the evil and oppressive magisterial Calvinist reformers.
The author adds in his opinion, "The narrative seems to be, "anyone but the Calvinist magisterial reformers."
As of late the Southern Baptist Convention is in a state of fragmentation with the influx of Reformed theology specifically Calvinism or the self-styled "Doctrines of Grace". It is apparent that the SBC is seeking some sort of Arminian Reformation era link in the same fashion that the Reformed churches call back to John Calvin as their theological forebear.
I just wonder if once all the contention between the Calvinists and Arminians over in the SBC has concluded will the Anabaptists be as popular and will their reputation remain intact. I am going to look into this matter a little more and make a follow up post later.
If you found this post interesting, you might like to read these posts as well:
Your concern is based on a false premise, namely, that Southern Baptists will ever stop fighting over Calvinism and Arminianism! In the meantime, I suppose it doesn't hurt if a little light is shone on Anabaptism. As Paul wrote to the Philippians: "It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, . . . But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice."
Oh so it is okay for the world to view Christians/Jesus and Anabaptism as bickering indecisive cliques. Well I guess any publicity is good publicity to some. I wonder what the original Anabaptists would think?
The Southern Baptist Convention has never been "Anabaptist," but there have always been folks within it who think true Baptist "roots" are in the Anabaptist tradition (as opposed to the Puritan tradition). (Of course, the right answer to that is "both/and"–Baptists descend from both Anabaptists and Puritans and that accounts for many of the tensions among Baptists.) I have never been a Southern Baptist (SBC), but I applaud those Southern Baptists who are discovering and valuing the Anabaptist heritage. May their tribe increase.
I trust it's clear that I was being facetious. That said, I think anyone who pays any attention to the matter would be able to tell the difference between Paige Patterson and, say, John Howard Yoder! Keep us updated on what you discover.
As a former Southern Baptist and watcher of some 50+ SBC blogs. The term Anabaptism is growing in popularity among Southern Baptists. The author is correct to note that it is a reaction to percevived growth of Calvinist influence in the denomination. The popularity of Anabaptism exists largely at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (Paige Patterson) which is setting itself up as a bastion of anti-Calvinism prepared to fight off Southern Baptist Theological Seminary's (Albert Mohler) growing influence.
It's important to note that what they are advertising as Anabaptism is nothing close to what any self proclaimed Anabaptist or Mennonite (or Anabaptist related tradition) would recognize as Anabaptist. They admire Balthasar Hubmaier almost exclusively. They certainly have no interest or ambitions towards pacifism, nonviolence or nonresistence (after all there is a culture war to fight). There was a conference at SWBTS in February 2012 on Anabaptism that included a who's who of SBC personalities including Paige Patterson, Rick Warren, Malcolm Yarnell and Emir Caner. Some Mennonite professors from the Goshen-Elkhart area attended. I heard John Roth give an opinion on it that wasn't overly positive. I don't think he would disagree with anything I've stated here.
I attended a conference on "Baptists and War" at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in September 2011. The conference was mostly to examine Baptist interactions with war and primarily the Civil War. The opening plenary by English Baptist historian Anthony Cross was the token presentation on Baptists and peace/pacifism. The only other radical opinions (challenging just war presumptions) were voiced by Robert Linder of Kansas State on a presentation about Australian Baptists and World War 2. I got a brief chance to talk to some of the SBTS students at the conference about the issue of Baptists and war. One of them mentioned they had read several works by Yoder, but when I pressed them on their reactions they acted uninterested and dismissive.
My mistake, yeah I will be posting something a little later.
@Roger Olson
Yes it is good that individuals within the SBC is looking at Anabaptism but to claim to be Anabaptist for an agenda is wrong on so many levels. I am not saying that there are none that is genuine in their claim or at least interest but if that was the case then they would not employ the name for a lack of a better means of putting it….politics.

The Impact of Globalization on Women: Testing Vandana Shiva's Critique of Development
AbstractVandana Shiva argues that through the masculinization of agriculture globalization has turned nature and women into passive fields for sowing. Shiva's critique that international trade, and globalization more generally, has undermined the social and economic position of women in less developed countries provides a wealth of testable hypotheses. For example, Shiva's argument implies that gender earnings inequality is higher in countries that are more integrated into the world economy, ceteris paribus. After summarizing her argument, we test this hypothesis through cross-sectional regression analysis.

Participation in Higher Education: Equity and Access: Are Equity-based Scholarships an Answer?
AbstractWe re-analyse data used by Le and Miller (2005), where it is found that students from low socio-economic status (SES) backgrounds have lower university participation rates than those from higher SES backgrounds. We utilise the concept of eligibility to attend university - here defined by both possession of a valid ENTER score and the value of that score. We find participation among those with similar eligibility to attend university does not vary by SES. Conditional on their ENTER scores, students from poor family backgrounds are as likely to attend university as those from better- resourced families. Hence, we see little scope for equity based tuition scholarships to rectify differences in participation between these groups. Instead, we find that possession and the quality of ENTER scores (eligibility) does rise with SES. Further analysis and policy targeting of the linkage between SES and ENTER scores is more likely to produce superior equity and access outcomes in higher education.

"Ordered this for my daughter's 8th birthday, an animal themed party for an animal-crazy kid. Quality is excellent! Nice thick paper, vibrant colors, crisp printing. Even cuter in person than online. Love that I could add a photo on the back with a little caption. To top it all off, it arrived in my mailbox 2 days BEFORE the expected delivery date. Very pleased with my purchase and service received."
"The watercolor texture & weight of the paper, coupled with the classic design and card shape was a perfect fit for the nostalgic look for which I was searching. My daughter loved it as well."
"I wanted a card for my 8 yr old's farm birthday that wasn't too juvenile looking. Stumbled upon tiny prints and found the PERFECT invite! I love how they have recommended fonts as the default or you can play with it to create your own unique look. It was so easy to just fill in the party info and have a customized invite in minutes! The invites came in the mail so quick and they are great quality. I have gotten so many compliments from the people we invited. I will definitely use this site again and highly recommend to anyone in need of the products offered!"
"I'm so happy with these invitations. The animals on it are so cute. The paper is really thick. The quality is just great. The delivery was also very quick. I liked how I could write a little note on the back of the card."
"I came across this product while I was googling farm-themed invitations for my daughter's second birthday party. I instantly fell in love and knew I had to place an order. My order arrived so quickly and, I have to say, the invitations are so precious. I've received nothing but compliments, which is nice, but I'm most excited to have such a sweet and beautiful keepsake for my child's baby book. In this time of print-it-yourself, digital this, and electronic that, it is really nice to have a professionally created, tangible memory that will last for years."

How to use connect_max_errors to improve my cache service?
I used six membase servers to setup a cache cluster. Then I run a standalone moxi in another server to give cache proxy service. But I found when any of membase server down, my php may get empty value from the cache proxy. After 30 ~ 60 sec ( I set autofailover with 30 sec ) my php (with memcache protocal) can get correct value again. But 30 ~ 60 seconds seems too long for my services, it means my database will be directly read by client for a long time. Database may dead in the 30 seconds. But I found the following tips in wiki.
In the server-side moxi processes spawned by membase, the connect_max_errors is configured to be 5 and the connect_retry_interval is 30000 (that is, 30 seconds).
I know there is a moxi process running on membase server.
Well, my question is:
in the 30 ~ 60 seconds, my php get empty value , inside of the membase, are there any error raised, or anything seem perfect?

From Laughing Squid:
The recently discovered sauropod dinosaur Dreadnoughtus schrani is one of the most complete skeletons ever found of such a large animal. As more research is being done its true scale is coming into focus. A diagram by BBC News shows how the Dreadnoughtus compares in size and weight to other dinosaurs, animals, and even a Boeing 737-900 airplane.
Embarrassed education officials have been forced to recall thousands of textbooks after a 'teacher' appearing on the front was identified as a pr0n star.
The 'Basic Mathematics' books were being sent out to 10 universities in Thailand, and the mistake was only spotted after more than 3,000 had been distributed, according to RocketNews24.
In attempting to track down a suitable stock image, publishers MuangThaiBook accepted they had made an error by using a screenshot from a XXX movie starring adult entertainer Mana Aoki.

Employees at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport heard a bag ticking after it was dropped off at an airline kiosk.
ATLANTA — The tick-tick-ticking sound of a bag alarmed employees at the world's busiest airport, but it has turned out to be nothing more than a passenger's toothbrush.
The battery-powered toothbrush was responsible for the sound that gave rise to fears of a bomb at Atlanta's airport Friday morning. It led police to cordon off a section of the north terminal while a bomb squad responded.
Airport spokeswoman Myrna White says AirTran employees heard the ticking sound after the bag was dropped off shortly before 7:30 a.m. at the airline's kiosk, near the curbs where cars and buses pull up to the north terminal. White said some travelers were diverted to the south terminal and normal operations in the area resumed by 8:10 a.m.

Blogging Metropolitan Home: April 2007
Bathing Beauties. The cover of the April issue of Metropolitan Home features the always-popular High/Low feature — this time focusing on a bathroom — a great resource for Bathroom Month! The entire issue has a kitchen and bath theme while covering a broad range of homes...
• We noticed a lot of the LOW furnishings came from Brocade Home and CB2.
• We have always been fans of framing pattered textiles and wallpaper. (Just last weekend we framed a piece of wrapping paper!)
• Shawn Henderson's Manhattan 1 Bedroom (Shawn is eBay's Design Director for Home & Garden). A wonderful (small) apartment that ATers will appreciate. We love the casement windows.
• Almost half of the Market Report section has been covered previously on AT.
• Met Home of the Month: A Manhattan apartment designed by Maya Lin. $$$. Some interesting storage solutions with built-ins.
• Modern in (Ann Arbor) Michigan. Designed by Pentagram's James Biber. Crazy for MCM. Great roof!
• David Oldroyd renovates a Palo Alto Tract House. Great mix of furniture.

i always find, from my newsstand scans, that met home is a bit flat and i never buy an issue. even the high/low feature seems old hat. rather than choose an entire room of high or low a mix seems more current.
i keep getting my dwell and met home in the mail on the same day...and it's such a treat! of course, i find myself not so wowed anymore...but it's still so much fun to peek inside.
i ran across "new york home" magazine the other day (i had never seen it before!) and i'm thinking maybe it's a superduper cross between dwell and met home...and i should just subscribe to that one instead hehe
Note the shell! It's not a conch, but it's there.
canadian House & Home is focusing on bathrooms this month as well, what's up? It's pretty convenient for those renovating, but for those who have no plans to change the bathroom, it's a bit of a bummer.
Oh and from this point forward I will be known as angieinmontreal, since I've noticed there is another angie.
I think they now do the LOW and then build the HIGH off that instead of vice versa. I read it and thought it should be retitled "How To Get the Brocade Home Look For More"
I've thought the same thing Julianna!

In September, the world's largest, most expensive and most heavily fortified embassy will open. It is ours and it is in Baghdad.
The embassy compound occupies 104 acres of primo real estate along the Tigris River in downtown Baghdad. If the embassy were in Washington, it would take up most of the National Mall.
For security reasons, the embassy will be out of sight and off-limits to most Iraqis, just as Baghdad outside the blast walls is out of sight and off-limits to the people at the embassy.
Instead, they will live in their own self-contained world with its own power, water and wastewater-treatment plants, amenities we have so far been unable to operate elsewhere in Baghdad on any regular basis.
The embassy will cost $592 million, although Congress is mulling a $50 million request for additional housing. The compound will contain 21 buildings, in addition to the embassy itself, residences for the ambassador and deputy, housing for 380 families, a PX, commissary, theater, schools, restaurants and a firehouse.
The Associated Press notes: "The embassy is one of the few major projects the administration has undertaken in Iraq that is on schedule and within budget." Apparently the concept of modesty and restraint never entered into it's planning, and if the war continues in its current direction, it will stand as a monument to American hubris and overreaching under the Bush administration.
2 Responses to "A monument to failure"
This is what we really went into Iraq for, to control it from our giant, fortified bunker palace in the desert.
All thru history tyrants erected monuments to themselves in the Middle East, although Bush is probably the first westerner to do so.
It will end up buried in sand like the others too. I wouldn't be surprised if the lines "Gaze upon my works, ye mighty, and despair" were carved over the entrance.
Yes Colonel Smedley was absolutely correct when the retired Marine Corps Colonel said that, war was a racket for business interests in the early 1900's.
This phony embassy proves it. Also, take note of the great deception of 911, which allowed all the military bases in Afghanistan to be placed so conveniently near the "pipe linesâ€. Yes, these two wars were preplanned.
It is a real travesty of justice that the oil people in the current administration never bothered to tell us the truth about these two preplanned wars. Both wars were planned before 911. They were in fact, an attempt to capture the Worlds oil supply.

Shami stars as Cook's struggles continue
India's Mohammed Shami (L) and India's Bhuvneshwar Kumar celebrate after scoring a half century (50 runs) at Trent Bridge in Nottingham, central England on July 10, 2014 - by Andrew Yates
India piled up 457 on Thursday's second day following a record last-wicket stand against England of 111 between Bhuvneshwar Kumar (58) and last man Shami (51 not out), that highlighted the slow pace of the pitch.
Both batsmen scored maiden fifties at this level as they far exceeded their previous Test-best innings of 39 (Kumar) and 11 (Shami) respectively.
Shami then made it 25 innings for Cook since the last of his England record 25 Test hundreds when he bowled him round his legs for five after the ball deflected off the left-handed opener's thigh pad.
"When you are in a bit of a rut, you've not scored runs for a while, things go against you," England paceman Stuart Broad said of Cook's dismissal.
"But it will turn. It only takes a cover-drive or dropped catch to change your momentum."
Sam Robson (20 not out) and Gary Ballance (15 not out) saw England to 43 for one at stumps.
"It was a good day because it's not a good wicket for bowling so we needed at least 450 runs," Kumar told reporters.
"Now it's time to bowl really well, "We are confident we can get them (England) out. The pitch might help the spinners later on."
Kumar, reflecting on his partnership with Shami, added: "I tried to play most of the over when Shami came in but later he was playing his shots."
England had looked like dismissing India for under 400 when the tourists slumped to 346 for nine after several self-inflicted wounds.
But for the second time in as many Tests at Trent Bridge, England found themselves on the receiving end of a huge last-wicket stand after Australia's Phil Hughes and Ashton Agar put on a world record 163 last year, in a match Cook's side won nonetheless.
England might have been expecting some runs from Kumar, who has a first-class hundred behind him.
But the batting of Shami, who prior to this match had a Test average of 3.33, was something else.
Their stand comfortably surpassed India's previous highest tenth-wicket partnership against England of 73 shared by Anil Kumble and Shanthakumaran Sreesanth at The Oval in 2007.
- Miserly Broad -
In the circumstances, Broad's economical return of two for 53 in 33 overs on his Nottinghamshire home ground was especially creditable.
"It was frustrating but we tried pretty much everything with the ball," said Broad.
New-ball partner James Anderson extended his own record for most Test wickets at Trent Bridge to 52 with three for 123 in 38 overs.
But England's lack of a specialist spinner, and the workload problems this could lead to in a five-match series crammed into six weeks, was emphasised by part-time off-break bowler Moeen Ali's expensive return of one for 97 in 18 overs.
India resumed Thursday on 259 for four with opener Murali Vijay 122 not out and captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who won the toss, unbeaten on 50.
Given the conditions on another sunny day, England could ill-afford to spurn chances.
But when Dhoni, still on his overnight score, edged a full-length Broad delivery, wicketkeeper Matt Prior, diving to his right, dropped the one-handed catch.
Vijay's near eight-hour innings eventually ended when he was lbw to Anderson, having faced 361 balls, including 25 fours and a six.
India were well-placed at 342 for five at lunch.
But shortly afterwards they lost four wickets for two runs thanks to a mixture of poor shots allied to Dhoni's needless run out for 82.
Kumar eventually completed a 133-ball fifty with a single off Anderson.
And the very next ball saw Shami reach the landmark in style with a straight six off the England spearhead, having faced just 73 balls including six fours.
Shami eventually chipped Ali to mid-on but the damage had long since been done.
