Recommended Restaurants by Groupon Customers
Recognized as one of Milwaukee's best Mexican eateries by WISN's A-List, The Azteca Restaurant upholds its title by simmering meats and seafood in homemade chili sauces and blanketing tender tortillas in melted cheese. Most of the menu's bean- and rice-heaped platters come with sides of from-scratch guacamole, which chefs perk up with tomatoes, cilantro, and a single cactus tear. Within the restaurant's vibrant adobe-colored exterior, desert murals span the walls and stimulate diners' thirsts, which can be quenched by seven flavors of fruity margaritas, Mexican beers, and creamy homemade horchata.
Named after the early-morning first shift for crew aboard seafaring vessels, First Watch ensures chefs arrive at work with the rising sun, chopping fresh produce, baking muffins, and mixing french toast batter each day. As guests arrive, perky servers greet them with an entire pot of Sunrise Select coffee, as well as the morning paper and free WiFi. Since 1983, First Watch's carpe-diem philosophy has spread to more than 100 locations across 13 states, pleasing crowds with thin, sweet crepes and fluffy whipped eggs, hash brown skillets, and enormous multigrain pancakes. Recently placed at the top of a Consumer Reports list of best family restaurants, First Watch takes the customer experience seriously. Chefs focus entirely on crafting nourishing sunrise feasts and midday meals, shunning afterthoughts of steaks and burgers for edible masterpieces of omelets, belgian waffles, homemade biscuits, and wholesome lunch salads and sandwiches.
Casa Di Giorgio's elegant dining halls have more than enough space to accommodate the abundance of diners seeking the kitchen's renowned gnocchi and pasta dishes. Glimmering chandeliers shower visitors in soft light, and vibrant Italian oil paintings hang on walls that are red and ornate, like the Arizona Cardinals' antique-furniture room. In the kitchen, chefs labor over veal, steak, and seafood, whipping up authentic northern and southern Italian dishes that have been lauded by reporters from Express Milwaukee. Servers deliver plates to the dining room along with bottles of fine wines, which they expertly coax open by whistling a few bars of Italian opera.
Kiku Japanese Cuisine nabbed numerous accolades in Express Milkwaukee 's Best of Milwaukee 2010 for lavishing guests with both a friendly staff that jots orders until 3 a.m. on weekends, and a vast menu of seafood-centric cuisine. Sushi chefs roll up more than 40 fillings into artfully plated sushi rolls, crowning their creations with creative flourishes such as fresh mango. Fish and vegetables can also transform from raw to sizzling with a dunk into tempura batter, which imparts a crispy golden sheen and keeps chopsticks too busy to assist with walrus impersonations.
Each night at Tokyo Sushi & Grill Japanese Steakhouse, chefs fire up six hibachi grills and flip shrimp, scallops, and swordfish atop the sizzling iron griddles and directly in front of guests. In addition to the hibachi chefs' flashy knife work, the casual eatery showcases more subtle Japanese culinary traditions. At the sushi bar, experts gingerly roll up fresh seafood, and in the kitchen, chefs swathe shrimp in crispy tempura batter with the same level of care a NASA scientist takes when coating the Space Shuttle's flameproof resin on the base of his cigar.
Since 1981, the ovens of Michaelangelo's Pizza have produced piping-hot pizzas piled with a variety of toppings. Sausage, pepperoni, olives, and pineapple arrive on delectable thin crusts. Meanwhile, pasta sauces coat lasagna, spaghetti, and ravioli. Steak sandwiches, hamburgers, and meatball sandwiches pair well with beers such as Peroni, Heineken, and Miller.

Contemporary / Modern Mini Pendant from the Classico Collection
Amazing Company
I ordered 3 of these as pendant lights for my new kitchen, they are beautiful. One of them fell and shattered during installation. I called to order another and they asked what happened, they new it wasnt their fault but they replaced it free of charge and even shipped it for free. This company is top quality and stands behind their products and goes the extra step to ensure their clients are happy.
I highly recommend Lighting Direct and will definitely purchase fromt hem again.

We were looking for simple yet beautiful pendant lighting for our new kitchen. These lights are so pretty and exceeded my expectations. They look lovely in the room.

Elegant, Stylish
We bought 3 "Espresso" mini-pendants for over a granite breakfast bar in our kitchen. The cabinetry is a deep cherry/mahogany finish with twisted rope trim/moulding....formal and elegant-looking. We searched for pendants that weren't too "busy" (didn't want to detract from the granite, etc) but not too plain, either. Wanted something that would add to the total look, compliment the deep wood tones and provide good light for reading the morning paper. BINGO! Got all of this and more with these lights! Sturdy, thick glass. Stylish, classy look. Provides great lighting (ours are on dimmers, so we also use them frequently for low "mood" lighting). Easy installation. Great price! You will be well pleased with this purchase.

Just downright beautiful!!
These pendants are better than anticipated. Beautiful unique designs on each piece. They look GREAT!!

Would You Use a "Flat Iron" That Supposedly Conditions Your Hair?
There's no doubt that my constantly styled mane is thirsty, and with summer practically at our doorstep (Oh, hello there, summer!) I've been a bit stressed that my hair will get seriously dehydrated. While serums and deep conditioners prove effective during the winter months, in the summer, we need something more to pull off that sleek, sexy, shampoo-commercial look, right?

Looking Good, Ke$ha: Rockin' a Mini Dress at the Billboard Music Awards
If there was an award for legs we most want to steal last night at the Billboard Music Awards, Ke$ha would have easy snagged the trophy. The pop singer, who is touring across the country this summer, showed off her hard-earned bod on the carpet last night in a slit-up-to-there LBD from Givenchy. (Sidenote: Doesn't she kinda look like Gwyneth?) Needless to say, we had to get the scoop from her trainer Kit Rich to see if we could at least get her toned legs for ourselves.

Watch Fame High Star Grace Song Chat With Our Editor-in-Chief!
Grace Song, ballet dancer and star of Fame High, a documentary following the lives of students at the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts (LACHSA), stopped by the SELF offices just a few weeks ago. Song opened up about her experience both on and off the big screen and gave us some keen insight on the reality of balancing both her professional and personal life. The movie, which just premiered Friday, provides an honest look at the struggles and triumphs a select group of LACHSA artists go through as they pursue their creative passions. Grace shared her personal story with me; including details on her parents accepting her dream of becoming a dancer, her dating life and the passion that keeps her busy while her pointe shoes are taking some must-needed time off.

Freekeh Burger with Chipotle Mustard
Bored with your typical, bland veggie burger? This Meatless Monday, spice things up a bit with these freekeh burgers with chipotle mustard. Freekeh is a roasted green wheat with a smoky, nutty flavor. It has fewer calories and THREE times as much fiber as rice, plus protein and antioxidants. If you can do a dish with quinoa or rice, you can use freekeh. But what really rules? Freekeh also has the perfect texture for "beefing" up a veggie burger. Topped with the chipotle mustard, this burger is anything but bland, more like freakin' good.

5 Antioxidant Serums To Boost Your SPF
Guys, we've told you before and we'll tell you again: Sunscreen alone is not enough to keep sun damage away. (Cue minor freakout for moi, as I am currently in Mexico.) What helps? Bolstering that awesome new SPF with a combination of antioxidants -- specifically, a serum infused with them that you apply prior to your sunscreen. (You can -- and should -- also eat foods rich in antioxidants like vitamins A, C and E and lycopene since they reduce photo-aging effects of the sun.) According to Dr. Neil Sadick, who we talked to in our June issue, "studies have found that antioxidants reduce the likelihood of skin cancer and also neutralize free radicals to slow aging." So basically, I need to pop some blueberries and sip green tea while I slather on one of these indulgent facial serums? Done.

Way back in what I now like to call the "stone age," 1975, I was a freshman in the fourth class of women to enroll at the University of Notre Dame. My rector was Sally Duffy, a tall graduate student who was also the coach of the women's basketball team.
Sally was a great rector, always available to talk things through and give you guidance. But it was clear her true passion was women's basketball. Sally put in many hours laying the ground work for a team that would come to represent the very best of the Fighting Irish.
Women's basketball was just a club sport back then. Becoming a varsity sport was a long-shot dream. The very presence of women at Notre Dame was controversial and the idea of women's varsity sports was even more so. The issue was always framed in terms of what the men would lose if women had varsity teams. Talking about what women would gain was always a secondary issue, if considered at all.
Tennis legend Billie Jean King has been a tireless advocate for Title IX both before and since its passage. She reflects on her career and the landmark legislation.
I remember interviewing Father Ned Joyce, who oversaw Notre Dame's athletics, about concerns that men's programs would suffer because of Title IX. I can't remember what he said, but I do remember walking away from the conversation thinking this would not be an easy transition.
In urban areas, girls face obstacles 40 years after Title IX
In 1977, women's basketball was made a varsity sport at Notre Dame, joining tennis and fencing. These teams were symbols to the university community and the world that women had arrived at Notre Dame and that we belonged.
I am notoriously unathletic. Warrior three in yoga class is an eternal challenge. But I truly believe that leveling the playing field in the athletic department helped us do the same in the classroom. It gave us a place and a stake in the storied tradition of Notre Dame sports as we made a mark elsewhere on campus.
Today, women are a proud part of Notre Dame. The university has 12 women's varsity sports teams.
The women's soccer, fencing and basketball teams have all won national championships. For the last two years, the women's basketball team has played in the national championship game. Friends don't dare call me when the women's team is on TV any more than they would call me when the Irish are playing football on Saturdays in autumn. They are all holy days of obligation in my book.
I am very proud to say that today at Notre Dame her loyal sons and daughters march on to victory. Thank you Title IX.

Orto de'Medici is a very agreeable hotel. The hotel staff is attentive and friendly. Friends from the US, Australia and Europe joined me in staying at this hotel. They all were very pleased with the location and accommodations. I was happy that it turned out well for everyone as I chose the hotel from Venere's web site. I will stay here whenever I am in Florence.

The LaGrange Grangers, in fact, have won them all.
Through eight games, the Grangers (8-0) have yet to meet their match, and they'll try to keep their perfect season going when they begin play in the LaGrange Toyota Basketball Classic today.
The Grangers open their tournament stay against Valley (5-8) at 7:30 p.m. today in the fourth and final game of the day.
The tournament continues Friday and wraps up Saturday.
There will be four games each day, leading up to the championship game on Saturday at 7:30 p.m.
LaGrange is one of eight teams that will be vying for the tournament championship.
The Grangers appear to have a great chance to win the tournament for the second straight season.
They're a veteran team, with 10 seniors leading the way, and there's plenty of talent to go along with that experience.
The Grangers have the perimeter game with guys like Justyn Olson and Rudra Kissun, and they're strong inside as well with 6-foot-6 Joe Sanders leading the way.
The Grangers have a guy who doesn't mind doing the dirty work in Drew Moody, and they have an explosive player in Kwame Brown who can throw down a dunk on the fast break or step back and pop a 3-pointer.
Most importantly, according to head coach Mike Pauley, this is a group of players who like each other and feed off of each other's success and play well together.
"We're not talented enough just to kill people. We have people who can play, but our physical presence is not that much better than anyone else's," Pauley said. "But we have kids who are skilled. We have kids who understand the game, who are seniors. We have those kinds of things going for us. So it's not shocking to me (that we're 8-0)."
This team, much like the 2009-2010 team that went 31-1 and played for a state championship, has shown a knack for winning close games.
Half of the Grangers' eight wins have been decided by eight or fewer points.
"A few years ago, when we had that 31-1 team, those guys won a bunch of close games. They had a bunch of really tight games," Pauley said. "There were times during the season when we almost got beat."
As for this team, Pauley said. "this group of kids can play. You get guys like that, you can do something."
LaGrange appears to have the upper hand in today's game.
Valley has struggled a bit and brings a 5-8 record into the tournament.
The Rams have lost a bunch of close games, though, and Pauley said no one is looking beyond today's game, although he and assistant coach Mark Veal will scout the game between Russell County and W.D. Mohammed.
If LaGrange wins today, it would play the winner of the Russell County and W.D. Mohammed game.
"I know this is a coach's cliché, but Mark and I have not even talked about (Friday's game)," Pauley said. "We've only talked about Valley. We'll play Valley, and we'll scout that game (today) before we play, and hopefully get a sense of who we might play."
Chances are, if LaGrange wins, it would end up playing W.D. Mohammed, which is 10-0 and has outscored its opponents by an average of 18 points per game.
"We know they're really good," Pauley said.
The action gets under way at 3 p.m. today with Opelika and Rockdale County playing.
Northgate and Hillgrove play at 4:30 p.m., Russell County and W.D. Mohammed meet at 6 p.m., and LaGrange and Valley square off at 7:30 p.m. in the nightcap.
The game times will be the same on Friday and Saturday.
3 p.m. - Opelika vs. Rockdale County
4:30 p.m. - Northgate vs. Hillgrove
6 p.m. - Russell County vs. W.D. Mohammed
7:30 p.m. - LaGrange vs. Callaway
3 p.m. - Opelika/Rockdale loser vs. Northgate/Hillgrove loser
4:30 p.m. - Russell County/W.D. Mohammed loser vs. LaGrange/Valley loser
6 p.m. - Opelika/Rockdale winner vs. Northgate/Hillgrove winner
7:30 p.m. - Russell County/W.D. Mohammed winner vs. LaGrange/Valley winner
3 p.m. - seventh-place game
4:30 p.m. - fifth-place game
6 p.m. - third-place game
7:30 p.m. - championship game

Music heals. I've been through a lot in my life, and worked through pain that can go alongside difficulty. And I think that's a part of life: we're all going to experience pain and loss to one degree or another in our lives. What makes us who we are is how we work through the pain the best way we know how. If we're lucky we become stronger because of it. Bob Marley wasn't lying when he said "the one thing about music, is when it hits you, you feel no pain."
This post is about artists who have spoken for friends or family, or have written a song directly related to their own grief, pain or anger.
A stunning song about a friend of his who miscarried her baby after four months. Ed turned a heartwrenching tragedy into something beautiful.
The ultimate when it comes to an artist trying to make sense of their own pain. Eric Clapton wrote this song to work through the pain of loosing his child; his son Conor fell from the 53rd floor of the apartment of his mother's friend. He arrived very soon after it happened and was obviously experiencing levels of anguish some of us may or may not have experience - or have yet to experience - in our lives.
This song is completely righteous, loud, and angry. The kind of pain the Dixie Chicks are working through is anger; these ladies said while on stage that they didn't support the war, and the president for sending troops off to what they believed to be a senseless war. (This IN NO WAY) was disrespecting the troops; they simply used their concert to express their opinions on politics and their president. People told them to shut up, that they should keep their opinions to themselves, told their children to hate these ladies, threatened their lives. All of this, for using their voice. In fact, they were told specifically to "shut up and sing,"so in true Dixie Chick form, they did.
This song -written by Mariah Carey, Boyz II Men, Walter Afanasieff (record producer, Singer/Songwriter) - is about losing a loved one and meeting them once again in heaven. Specifically, Mariah and the guys in the band Boys Boyz II Men wrote it about people who they had lost in their lives, and also to people who were struggling with AIDS, and those who had succumbed to the virus. It's such a a stunning song, and it can mean anything you want.
Zevron was in a compelling and painful position: he knew he was dying. This song served as his goodbye to his loved ones, and to the world. This song was released on his final album called The Wind (2003). It showed that he was ready to go, and he said everything he wanted to say. Kind of makes me choked up thinking about it. None of us knows when we're going to go, I'd like to think that when It's my time to go I said everything I wanted to say to everyone, did everything I felt needed to be done. I challenge you to not feel a knot in your throat over for this one…
I couldn't make a post like this without including The Beatles. This song is about love and loss, and the emotional, mental, and inner change and turmoil you go through. It's so beautiful and heartbreaking when you listen to it, I just don't have much to say that would do it justice. So just listen.
To me, Tupac was a King. He was one of those rappers who measured every word and made sure they had purpose. He was extremely intelligent, well spoken, and knew how the opportunities he had in his life had an effect on who he came to be. Tupac kind of saw himself as prophetic; he believed his own death was coming (and sadly he was right). And I see this song as him kind of taking control of what he knew was coming, and taking away the power from who would be the one to kill him. Working through the fear, the paranoia, what he's seen in his life, and making peace with what was to come. I don't think there will ever be any other rapper who is anything like him.

Apple has released iOS 6.1 for its iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and Apple TV users. (Apple / January 28, 2013) |
Apple is updating iOS 6 for the iPhone, the iPad and the iPod Touch with a handful of useful features including allowing high-speed LTE connectivity with more carriers.
The Cupertino, Calif., company released the iOS 6.1 update Monday morning. Users can access the update on their devices by going to the Settings app, tapping General and selecting Software Update.
The software update is particularly useful for owners of devices that don't have 4G LTE connectivity.
It'll allow the iPhone 5, the third and fourth-generation iPad and the iPad mini to have the high-speed data connection with more carriers. It is currently only available with AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and several smaller carriers. The connectivity will be expanded to 36 more carriers for the iPhone 5 and 23 more carriers for the LTE-enabled iPad devices.
QUIZ: Test your Apple knowledge
Besides LTE, the iOS 6.1 update gives U.S. owners of Siri-enabled devices the ability to purchase movie tickets from Fandango using the voice assistant.
Also, users who subscribe to Apple's iTunes Match service can now download individual songs from iCloud, a feature that Apple had removed on the prior iOS update.
Separately, Apple released an update for its Apple TV that'll allow its second- and third-generation devices to connect to Bluetooth keyboards, giving users an easier way to search for TV programs.

A Survey of Clergy and Their Views on Origins
What do today's pastors think about science? What views do they hold on creation and evolution and how strongly do they hold them? How do origins issues impact their ministries? These were just a few of the questions that motivated us at BioLogos to commission a survey of pastors on origins
Hydrology of the Bow River
There's a word beneath the water, and the Bow River belongs to God. Have you been listening?
A Scientific Commentary on Genesis 7:11
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
Dissonance and Harmony
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
Science and the Bible: Assessing the Evangelical Encounter with Evolution
Having now completed our study of the five main views about "Science and the Bible" held by conservative Protestants, I conclude with a final column, assessing the whole situation as I see it today.
Series: The Church Fathers and Two Books Theology
In this series, Mark Mann explores what many of the great Christian theologians and saints of the Church have said about how God speaks in and through God's other great book: Nature, or Creation. Listening to figures from the the 2nd to the 18th centuries,Mann proposes three main points:
Christians should think of Scripture and Creation as two "books" that should be read together for understanding the fullness of God's self-revelation;
Science is a God-given tool for discerning the handiwork of God in Creation, and is fully compatible with God's Word revealed in Scripture, and therefore,
Christians have nothing to fear from science.
Series: Science and the Bible: Intelligent Design
In this series, Ted Davis identifies the history, core tenets and assumptions about the Intelligent Design view.
Medieval Christianity and the Rise of Modern Science, Part 1
There has been no great conflict between science and religion: on the contrary, Christianity was an essential factor in the rise of modern science.
Science and the Bible: Theistic Evolution, Part 2
Everyone reading this column originated in the union of two cells, one from each parent. Everyone reading this is also created in the image of God. Each of these two sentences is true, but the truths they proclaim are of a different order. The first neither implies nor negates the second.
Christianity and the History of Science (Infographic)
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about the relationship of Christianity with science throughout history. It debunks the myth that they have always been in conflict, and it reveals numerous examples of Christians playing a leading role in the development of natural science.
The Questions Update: How have Christians responded to Darwin's "Origin of Species"?
History reveals that one of the earliest supporters of evolutionary theory in the American scientific community was a devout Christian botanist named Asa Gray. And among theologians, BB Warfield believed that certain forms of evolution were also compatible with a high view of Scripture.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
David Lack and Darwin's Finches
Considering the immense popularity of "Darwin's finches", it is quite surprising to learn that Charles Darwin himself had very little to say about them. In fact, it was actually David Lack, one century later, who conducted the critical research that immortalized the finches in biology textbooks and popular lore.
Fine-tuning and the "Fruitful Universe"
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
Saturday Sermon: Over and Above Naturalism, Part 2
Barkley suggests that material creation is not the end of our understanding (as Naturalists think), but a beginning that unveils the majestic and power of a Creator who loves us.
Saturday Sermon: Over and Above Naturalism
Pastor Joseph Barkley of Ecclesia Church extols the greatness of the God who has brought forth incredible works and engaged humankind in relationship. In the first part of the sermon "Over and Above Naturalism," Barkley admires the factual knowledge unlocked by science, and yet reminds the Church that those material descriptions fail to answer the question of ultimate significance.
Caution! Design Arguments Ahead
Design arguments have been around forever and expressed in various ways. Most of them fall into what we call natural theology, which is the process of inferring something about the existence and nature of God by the inspection of nature.
Understanding Evolution: The Evolutionary Origins of Irreducible Complexity, Part 1
I will take some time to clarify exactly how Michael Behe, the biochemist and Intelligent Design (ID) proponent who has most extensively developed the "irreducible complexity" argument, uses the term.
Science and the Bible: Five Attitudes & Approaches
If you're reading this, then you already have an interest in how science relates to the Bible. Judging from the very large number of books, magazine articles, blog entries, and sermons devoted to that topic in any given year, you aren't alone.
Saturday Sermon: Gloriously Functional
Is Genesis 1 describing material creation or functional creation? Pastor Richard Dahlstrom of Bethany Community Church beautifully articulates the insights he has received through John Walton's book The Lost World of Genesis One and probes deep into the Biblical text with us.

Can someone explain in short what "recursive DNS query" means and how it can be considered bad?
closed as off topic by Michael Mrozek♦ Nov 11 '11 at 14:54
Questions on Unix & Linux Stack Exchange are expected to relate to Unix or Linux within the scope defined in the FAQ. Consider editing the question or leaving comments for improvement if you believe the question can be reworded to fit within the scope. Read more about closed questions here.
A recursive DNS query happens when the DNS server you asked for the address of, say, unix.stackexchange.com doesn't know the answer itself, so it has to check with another server. Normally this is actually how DNS works -- the DNS server of your ISP does not have the entire internet's domain records permanently memorized for obvious reasons, so the following exchange happens under the hood: You: Hey, browser, show me Browser: Sure thing! ... Hm. I don't actually know what IP address that is. Hey, OS, can you tell me where to find OS: Sure thing... Hmm. It's not in my own ISP's DNS server: Sure thing! ... Hmmm. That one isn't in my list of authoritative domains, and right now I don't have that answer cached. Hey, internet root servers, can you tell me who is authoritative for Internet Root Servers: Sure thing! According to our records, you want ISP's DNS server: Thanks, Internet Root Servers! Hi there,
ISP's DNS server: Great, thanks! OS, the number you're looking for is OS: Great, thanks! Browser, you need address Browser: Great, thanks! Okay, calling up the page now. You: Yay, thanks Browser! Now bear in mind that there are actually two types of name servers queried here -- authoritative DNS servers (the so called "root" servers that told your ISP's DNS server where to find SE.com's DNS server, and SE.com's authoritative DNS server) and recursing or forwarding DNS servers (your ISP's DNS server). Normally, the former type is not supposed to respond to recursive queries, especially not from outside their own domain. Smaller ISPs sometimes save on costs by having their primary authoritative name server be the same server as their primary forwarding nameserver, but that's somewhat unsafe policy - especially if you don't configure your server to refuse recursive queries from outside your own IP range. TL;DR: Recursive queries are part of the way the internet and DNS work, but not all DNS servers should be receiving recursive queries, and when the ones that shouldn't respond do respond you can get problems. EDIT Further reading here. |
If there are 2 DNS servers, DNS-A is the authority for domain-a, and DNS-B is the authority for domain-b, and someone sends a DNS query to DNS-A for a lookup of domain-b. DNS-A would then be recursing by sending a request to DNS-B in order to lookup domain-b. Essentially, a recursive query is when a DNS server, on behalf of the client that sent the query, chase the trail of DNS in order to fulfill the request. This is fine if you are hosting a DNS server for a network, like an office and all the machines in that office will use the DNS server to do all lookups. This is bad if you are allowing anyone to do DNS recursive queries. This is also bad if you are hosting a DNS server that is only supposed to fulfill requests for a certain domain. If someone requests a lookup for another domain, the DNS server should return an error instead of doing recursion. |

Last season I had a huge problem with crabgrass in and around my display yard. What is the best preventative, rate and time of application? I am reading about a new OHP product Marengo, with some interest.
That looks to be a great choice. I know Surflan is another popular choice but the orange residue might be unattractive.
Holy Cow, I looked into the price of Marengo, and it's over $1000 for a half gallon. Needless to say, we won't be using that!!
Kathleen, For $1,000 you could buy a pretty decent flame thrower! :)
You can try corn gluten. It comes as a granule that you spread around. It inhibits root growth of the crabgrass seedlings so the timing of the application is important. It has about a 4 week control time. We sell it in our garden center for homeowners who wish to have an organic control of crabgrass in their lawn.

Humility In The Light Of Creator (plus bonus track)
CD (Item 84405) Delmark, 1969 — Condition: New Copy
One of the most spiritual albums to come from the young AACM movement in Chicago – a session that's somewhat equal in expression to some of the best post-Coltrane work on Impulse Records! Maurice McIntyre plays here with a sound that's already fully formed – an approach to the tenor that's as searingly human as that of Pharoah Sanders or Albert Ayler – but which is also played with a sharpness at times that recalls a young Marion Brown. The rest of the group is equally well-matched – a tremendous array of talent from the Chicago scene, with Malachi Favors on bass, Thurman Barker and Ajaramu on drums, Leo Smith on trumpet and flugelhorn, John Stubblefield on soprano sax, and Amina Claudine Myers on piano. George Hines vocalizes a bit on a few tracks – singing in a spiritual tone that's somewhat like Leon Thomas, but much freer and more abstract – and the album beautifully balances shorter musical statements with a fuller suite on side two – showing the deeper, more ambitious expressions that were starting to well up in the AACM. Titles include the tremendous "Humility In The Light Of Creator", plus "Hexagon", "Kcab Emoh", "Pluto Calling", "Life Force", and "Suite – Ensemble Fate". CD also features a bonus version of the title track! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

High school swimming notes: Perry Invitational on tap Saturday
A fixture on the News-Herald area calendar is once again right around the corner.
The Perry Invitational will be held Saturday, with a field that includes N-H area squads Andrews Osborne, Chardon, Harvey, Kirtland, Lake Catholic, Madison, North, Notre Dame-Cathedral Latin, Riverside, South, Villa Angela-St. Joseph and West Geauga.
Of the 55 returning N-H state qualifiers from last winter in individual events or relays, five are from schools represented at this meet. So considering the bulk of those state qualifiers tend to come from the western portion of the N-H area from year to year, it provides schools an opportunity to test themselves against one another with the hopes of joining that caravan to Canton.
"We really enjoy having it," first-year Pirates coach Trisha Dodd said. "It's a chance for our kids to shine against some of the bigger schools."
Returning N-H area individual champions from a year ago at the meet are West Geauga's Gabe Nock (100- and 200-yard freestyle) and Josh Egan 500 free), North's Jared Stergar (200 IM), Harvey's Jeremy Preston (100 butterfly) and Kirtland's Ben Kehres (100 backstroke).
The Wolverines boys will be aiming for their fourth straight team championship, while the Pirates' girls will look to defend their team title from a year ago.
"It's going to be exciting," Dodd said. "To represent well on our home turf in a meet with a lot of local teams would be exciting."
Tops in Ohio
Several N-H area swimmers have the best times in Ohio in their respective events according to performances compiled by swimmeet.com.
Chagrin Falls' Austin Quinn's 50.06 in the 100 fly and 49.77 in the 100 back that won the Viking Invitational are first. Hawken's Micah Simpson has the top time in the 200 free with a 1:40.20. Continued...
Hawken senior and Vanderbilt recruit Carrie Bencic tops the 200 free (1:50.06) and 500 free (4:51.25), and teammate and North Carolina recruit Sarah Koucheki is first in the 200 IM (2:04.37) and 100 free (51.04). The Hawks' 200 free relay leads with their 1:36.27 from Viking.
Honor roll
A look at a few of the top performances by area swimmers from meets held amid a light week prior to the holiday break:
-- Chagrin Falls' Jason Quinn was first in the 200 free and 500 free and swam legs on the winning 200 medley and 200 free relays as the Tigers defeated nonconference foe Gilmour, 106-63.
-- Andrea Bartel won the 200 IM and 100 breaststroke and was on the first-place 200 medley and 200 free relays in Euclid's 93-72 Lake Erie League dual win over Warren Harding.
-- Chardon's Emily St. Jean took the 200 and 500 free and was on the winning 400 free relay in the Hilltoppers' tri-meet with Lakeside and Jefferson.
Area leader updates
Area coaches are asked to submit updates for N-H weekly leaders should they have qualifying performances that do not appear on the list. Most times are compiled from the Northeast District leaders on swimmeet.com, but this does not account for every time that would qualify for N-H leaders. Coaches received an email Saturday with the current list requesting additions.

Internet telephony with Linphone
When you want to call your friends in distant countries, don't pick up the phone; just put on your headset and fire up Linphone.
One of the most popular methods for accessing Voice over IP technology is through a so-called softphone. A softphone is simply a computer program running on your desktop that handles call establishment and communication. Linphone [1] is one of the most popular softphone applications for Linux. Linphone is optimized for the Gnome desktop, although that doesn't mean you can't run it on KDE. This articles describes how to install, configure, and troubleshoot Linphone. Of course, even though Linphone is a software tool, in order to use it, you'll need some basic hardware, such as a headset and a microphone. And if you want to use Linphone as a complete phone system you'll need an account with a VoIP provider. For the examples in this article, I will refer to two fictitious VoIP accounts with two providers: Sipsnip and Purtel. Our fictitious user places calls via the Sipsnip account but wants to take incoming calls via Purtel. The procedures are similar for other providers.

Two stars. One dress. Lots of pearl clutching.
This weekend, a "fashion disaster" was declared after Britney Spears and Kim Kardashian made the catastrophic mistake of styling the same Herve Leger bandage dress at different events.
Brit sheathed her gym-toned frame in the geometrically printed jacquard minidress (retail price: $1,450) to help guest-host the annual Wango Tango music festival on Saturday in Los Angeles. The popster paired it with black YSL boots and a surprisingly shiny and tangle-free coif.
Kim, meanwhile, showcased her covetable curves in the strapless, hermetically sealed frock while making the scene in Miami with basketball boyfriend Kris Humphries on Friday. She opted to highlight her gams in Fendi slingbacks.
Both ladies finished their ensembles with nude-hued lipstick.
Before the Red Cross mobilizes for this tabloid-declared dress disaster, we put it to you: Who pulled off this bandage look best? Channel your inner fashion critic and tell us in the comments below.

SoundCloud Support (Finally)
As SoundCloud recently hit 5 million users, blogger's pleas for us to support the service grew too strong to ignore and we've added support for detecting embeds.
The info will show up as a track under the post in the same way as a music file.
There is a caveat: SoundCloud still doesn't support artist meta info. What does this mean to you? If the SoundCloud account doesn't belong to the artists, themselves, the "title" of the track should be Artist Name – Track Title. One space is required on either side of the dash. This is mainly for labels who upload many tracks by many different artists.
There still may be issues. Guessing the artist and title is a shitty way to do it, but that's what SoundCloud gives us. I'm hoping they add an artist meta to the api at some point, but who knows.
(Hat tip to Hyperbolium for the conversation that lead to this)

JoeKing wrote:The "tuneability" advantage of c/f was never exploited, it was scapegoated by the pudits as the "obvious" reason; logical fallacy: alien material = poor results...correlation = causation. As this ongoing trainwreck continues, whatever their unresolved undelying issue(s) may be, perhaps the ONLY thing Ducati has definitively proven is.... their problem is/was not frame material(s).
Mea culpa, I did not express myself thoroughly. I'm not pointing at the c/f frame as the culprit. What I was trying to say was - and in agreement with your point that the tuneability of the c/f frame appears to never have been properly exploited - Preziosi implied that by using that tuneability they could produce bikes with greatly varying characteristics.
The fact that the 'great leap forward' in '10 was from Stoner changing the forks for more flexible ones points to the bike as a whole being an aggregation of parts that did not work well together - forks, frame and swing-arm. The 'bend like a tree' philosophy sees the entire mechanism operating in harmony from one contact patch through to the other, with the influences of all of the elements that contribute to the reaction of the mechanism taken into account. Yamaha are the masters of that; Ducati seem to be at the other end of the spectrum - parts of the mechanism (mostly)work very well part of the time but the incredible number of crashes for Ducs overall in 2010 says that for some of the time they did not work at all well - they would combine to produce a bike that was highly unpredictable ('exactly wrong'...)
As to the comment that the '12 bike was 'cobbled together': (from the Manzania article quoted above)

10 Retro Hairstyles That Are Hot Right Now
The Marilyn Monroe pin curls and Brigitte Bardot blowout are back. See how to give a chic update to these retro hairstyles now
Rolled-back updo
This retro updo is gorgeous with girly clothes like lace dresses, silk blouses, and full skirts, says Philip B. "It has a European look that's a little '40s Hollywood, too. And it's a nice variation on an updo."Keep it modern: "Keep the part a little haphazard and not so precise," says Philip B. "The highlights here are really bright, which is what keeps the style modern. And the rolls are pinned in place but not in a severe way, so the texture looks touchable and sexy -- a departure from the '40s look."
How to: Lightly spritz on a texturizing spray to give your hair lift and grip. Blow it dry for volume and part your hair in the middle. Twist one side back and pin it in place at the nape of your neck; repeat on the opposite side. Then connect the ends and twist them up in the back into a soft bun. Finish with a light spray of touchable hairspray.

Did you know?
EPA's Renovation, Repair, Painting (RRP) Rule pertains to any painted surface of a home built prior to 1978 where 20ft2 of exterior painted surfaces or 6ft2 of interior painted surfaces is disturbed (removed, replaced, painted, etc). Is a possible lead hazard being unknowingly created in the preparation of a sale of a pre-1978 house? Are the proper steps being taken to protect you, your client and/or future owner?
- The EPA RRP Rule is to be followed by contractors working in homes built prior to 1978 where 6ft2 of interior painted surfaces are being disturbed and 20ft2 of exterior painted surfaces are being disturbed. In a case of an emergency renovations, the repair can take place however the clean-up and verification process of the EPA RRP rule must be followed. The EPA requires contractors to be Firm Certified, as well have a minimum of One (1) Certified Renovator on staff and present during certain phases of work listed by EPA RRP on houses built prior to 1978.
- One packet of artificial sweetener represents approximately the amount of lead needed to poison 5,000 children or 66 adults.
- Children and Pregnant women have a 50% absorption rate to the lead they are exposed to; non-pregnant adults have a 10-15% absorption rate.
Harrell Remodeling adheres to lead safe practices:
On Friday, February 3rd, 2012, twenty plus employee owners of Harrell Remodeling attended an informational and hands on training session for the EPA RRP (Renovation, Repair, Painting) Lead Safe Work practices conducted by employee owner and Certified EPA Renovator, Kristen Kleiboer. Using a PowerPoint presentation with slides used from the EPA's website, actual photos of some of our employee owners using lead safe practices on various jobsites and a hands on demonstration of proper containment and cleaning practices. Each went away with an understanding of how a small amount of lead dust can poison others as well as the fact that the dust can go anywhere.
This point was demonstrated in our demonstration of cleaning up the dust & debris from the cardboard model of a house. The dust and debris was a mixture of paper scraps, 1 packet of artificial sweetener (which represents the approximate amount of lead needed to poison 5000 children or 66 adults) and ultraviolet powder. After clean up occurred while using an ultraviolet flashlight it was demonstrated that the "lead" powder (ultraviolet powder- which glows under the ultraviolet light) can still present on the body, hands, clothing, floor, etc. even after hand washing! This signified the care needed of following the EPA RRP rules closely not only to protect our clients and their families but also our fellow employee owners and their families.

Consumer Reviews of DUCANE heat pumps
It's free, fast and safe
Read more about DUCANE heat pumps
Read reviews of other Heat Pump brands
Location: Pennsylvania
Satisfaction Rating:
I have been installing Ducane as well as all other brands for fifteen years. You get what you pay for. This applies to the installer as well. If the installation and sizing of the system is done correctly the unit will last for years to come. If you need to call a contractor several times a year you may want to get a second opinion.

I've owned my ducane heat pump for 3 yrs also have ducane furnace had installed same time. I've been pretty happy with them so far. I didn't realize the problems so many are having til I read these complaints. I guess the reason I went to this site was because of the very loud noise I get when the heat pump kicks on. I wasn't sure if this is a problem or not then I read that someone else has same problem. I guess if that's my only problem then I'm luckier than most on this site. I hope that mine last long I'd hate to replace it. I did have a good instaler do the work. He said he has installed hundreds of units different brands and that this is the least brand he has trouble and service calls with. I went with his opinion since he does know. I guess like the one person said anything man made can break so it's like anything, you get good and you get bad ones.

"Working well so far..."
After reading so many negative reviews I'm thinking we were fortunate. We have had a two-ton Ducane heat pump in service since 2002 and it's still plugging along with no repair issues. This house was built in '62 and had never had forced-air heating or cooling before. The contractor had the heat pump installed by a reputable tech. However, as we later learned, a jackleg subcontractor was hired to install the ductwork. The system wasn't right from Day One. It ran constantly. It couldn't keep up in summer and delivered cold air in winter when the outside temp was below freezing. We had a local HVAC contractor out to look it over and offer suggestions. He wasn't all that thrilled with the Ducane brand but told us as long as it functioned, the half-assed ductwork should be replaced. That's now done. It's been working much better and the electric bills are lower. The heat pump was installed together as a matched set. Going on 8 years now, the unit is still functioning. And it's been working through some very cold and icy winters.

I am in construction management. I design, estimate and help people buy the products for their homes at the best Quality for the price. (Only 35 years experience)I have a Ducane Unit. I have had it repaired 4 times in 4 years almost a year apart. But I am going to say this. It does not matter what you buy any more. Just watch the show "how it is made" that's right ; no human hands all by machines, so what do you all expect. They are all made the same. You might get a good one or a bad one. This is how it is. My best advice is to buy one that the manufacturer or distributor is local so you can actually go to them if you need to. They don't want to see you! Trust me! Andy

"Aux. heat"
Heatpump works great in A/C mode and ok in heat, but have to replace aux. heat strip relays every fall. There relay coils are 24vdc for some reason, and they burn out each year.

The University System of Georgia issued invitations in the name of Chancellor Hank Huckaby to draw hundreds of legislators, business executives and college presidents to hear how some companies did it and kick around ideas on how others could, too.
Huckaby told them that economic development is one of his top priorities for the state's 35 public colleges and universities. He wants each to do a better job of tapping into their faculty's many innovations.
"From the smallest to the largest schools, from the schools with the simplest mission to the ones with the toughest mission, we are really doing great things in the University System of Georgia. The thing we weren't doing was telling our story very well," he said, "certainly not telling it in different venues and different ways."
He announced that the system is working with members of the private sector to draft a communication plan to be kicked off next year.
Georgia Economic Development Commissioner Chris Cummiskey said the state suffers when trying to interest outside companies because of its image like Silicon Valley or Research Triangle.
"We don't have a great brand," he said. "We don't."
Georgia has a lower cost of living and cost of doing business than other states with a reputation as hubs for invention, and it has academics who are just as innovative as those other states, he said.
The companies on display included Camellix LLC that sells chewing gum and lozenges to prevent dry mouth that were developed by Dr. Stephen Hsu, a professor at Georgia Health Sciences University. Another was IS3D, an Athens company that sells interactive science textbooks based on research at the University of Georgia. A 86-year-old Newnan company that makes parts for industrial freezers that were refined with technology produced at Georgia Tech.
Huckaby acknowledged that part of the challenge is convincing university professors to recognize the commercial potential of their research and to try to exploit it. He also advocated teaching entrepreneurial skills in undergraduate classes.
"We're under no illusions that this will be easy," he said. "Higher education does not have a reputation of changing very quickly."
Guests attending the Chancellor's Economic Development Forum: A Celebration of Research and Innovation by the University System of Georgia in Atlanta Dec. 3, 2012, pick up chewing gum samples while they learn about products made from green tea to prevent dry mouth, dandruff and pain made by Camellix LLC, an Augusta company using the research of Dr. Stephen Hsu, a professor at Georgia Health Sciences University.
