Pop Rocks Milk Chocolate Bar
Last year I tried the Limited Edition Chocolate Covered Pop Rocks. They were interesting, not really anything to bring me back to eating Pop Rocks on a regular basis.
But this year Pop Rocks had something completely new and not packaged in a flat envelope. This is the new Milk Chocolate Pop Rocks Bar. The gentleman at their booth at All Candy Expo was careful to tell me that they used premium chocolate for this bar. (I'm not sure I'd call it premium, it does have PGPR in it.)
The bar is petite at only 1.16 ounces and three chunky segments.
The chocolate is soft and rather creamy but sweet. It melts quickly to reveal the chunks of Pop Rocks that, well, pop. It's like a proactive Nestle's Crunch Bar (with better chocolate).
The chocolate is light and lacking in the darker chocolate flavors, I got an overwhelming taste of raisins, but I don't know if that had something to do with some actual flavor to the Pop Rocks.
The bar can be eaten two ways, as far as I'm concerned. The first is to simply let it melt and allow the Pop Rocks to pop. This creates a mild and interesting effect, but not terribly different. The second is to chew up much of the bar and then let it melt, giving it another chew or two as it dissolves completely. This is extremely noisy (at least inside my own head) and by far the most fun.
Popping candy chocolate bars have been around for a few years, most notably a brief appearance in the United States by the Wonka Xploder bar, which I never got to try.
I expect them to be found in the same places I see Pop Rocks (7-11, Target and candy shops), no word on the retail price. This bar was made in Spain.

Pop Rocks and Shoogy Boom
While at the All Candy Expo over the summer, there was some excitement over the new chocolate Pop Rocks to come out later in the year. I got a sample of them there, in a little cup, not a packet with the final design. In fact, when I saw the packet at the 7-11 last night, I didn't even recognize it. The colors on the package look more orange than chocolatey brown (and I was actually interested in orange pop rocks).
The Pop Rocks Bubble Gum was a bit of a disappointment. I was expecting it to be like the bubble gum cotton candy I had earlier this year. Instead it was a little bits of white bubble gum mixed with even smaller bits of rather unflavored Pop Rocks in light orange and pink. The fun is gone in a matter of seconds. Either you chew up the gum part and all the pop rocks go off at once or you leave it in your mouth and have the gummy unreactive lumps at the end.
The gum itself is nice, soft but it takes about half the packet to create enough gum to make a bubble.
The Chocolate Pop Rocks are very light in color and look kind of like little crisped rice, but about the size of sesame seeds. In fact they remind me of Cocoa Krispies. The popping is light and refreshing, but not as pronounced as the Green Apple I've had recently.
But Pop Rocks are not the only game any longer. There is a Turkish company called HLeks that's making carbonated candy as well under the name Shoogy Boom. They have a nice range of flavors, including lemon and cola. I picked up the comparable flavors: Chocolate Covered and Bubble Gum. They also have a freaky chinless clown as a mascot. Seriously, this cannot be endearing to children.
Shoogy Boom is a slightly smaller serving, at only 7 grams per packet instead of the 9.5-10.5 grams you get with Pop Rocks.
The Shoogy Boom Popping Bubble Gum had a similar format to the Pop Rocks, just a mess of little gum bits and some light orange popping candy pieces mixed in. I have to give it to Shoogy Boom, they deserve their boom name, the popping is definitely active, more than the Pop Rocks. However, the gum absolutely sucks. It was like when you decide to eat a piece of paper and eventually get that stiff unchewable piece of fiber. Only this had a light bubble gum flavor.
The Chocolate Shoogy Boom were darker than the Pop Rocks and a bit rounder. The chocolate tasted much more like chocolate instead of cocoa. The popping though was far and away better than the Pop Rocks. A slight tartness to the candy inside but overall a good noisy affair. They're both a tasty and interesting change from the original.
I think what's best about them is that they don't have the same tendency to lose their pop over time because of humidity that the regular popping candies can.
An internet search revealed nothing about any retailers in the US carrying Shoogy Boom, so please leave a note here if you've seen them sold anywhere.

Pop Rocks Cherry Cola
If I'd planned it a little more, this week could have been Cola Flavor Theme Week. But here I am again with another cola flavored candy.
I got these cute little packets of Cherry Cola flavored Pop Rocks at the All Candy Expo. They come in a wee little lunchbox looking tin. The packets are a little larger than a packet of sugar or about a third of the size or a regular Pop Rocks package. I'm actually okay with a small packet, as Pop Rocks tend to get all sticky when exposed to humidity and I like to eat my Pop Rocks slowly.
The little grains are different colors, some pale yellow and some pink, I was guessing they were just a mix of rock flavors. They were very fizzy and popped really well, must better than my experience with the Sal y Limon ones. The cherry flavor was soft with only a slight tangy tone to it, but I completely missed the cola notes. Every once in a while there was a burst of caramelized sugar flavor, which was really nice, but didn't ring as a cola flavor. Granted, I've never had Cherry Cola, but I'm guessing it tastes like cola in some way or another.
If you're looking for stocking stuffers or party favors or a theme gift, these are an excellent choice. The packages are decorated in the style or a 50s diner or soda counter with bright red and black accents. The tins are limited edition, so they may come out with different varieties. This one was Series 1, Edition 2. (You can buy them online here at CandyFavorites and I think I've seen this or something similar at Cost Plus World Market.)
I wonder if they'll ever make Root Beer Pop Rocks?

Pop Rocks Limon
Pop Rocks are a Spanish product, so it's only natural they would angle some of their product towards the large Hispanic market in North America. I this at the Walgreen's in Echo Park, which is (or was) a rather traditional Hispanic neighborhood in LA. Half of the package is in Spanish, just as half the packaging in Canada is in French.
The top half tells us that it's Salt and Lemon Pop Rocks ... Popping Candy. The bottom half says Sal y Limon ... Dulce con Chasquido.
I didn't know what the word chasquido meant (though by context it means popping) so I looked it up on babelfish. No luck there ... so I googled the word and found a page in Spanish that had a definition, which I then ran though the translator. So, the bad internet translator says:
But you want to know about this strange savory, sweet and tangy version of Pop Rocks, right?
First, you have to shake it well because the salt and rocks tend to separate. Then I poured it on my tongue and I admit it was a riot of tastes - they're all there. The salt is, well, intensely salty. It's the first ingredient on the list, so there's a lot of it in there. Next, it was bitter, like some sort of mineral taste. Then the rocks started popping and releasing a bit sugar and there were other little snaps of sour released as well.
It was hard to keep it in my mouth. It's really salty. I'm used to salt as a condiment, not as the main dish. There are 984
milligrams of salt in this little package - that's about 50% of your daily allowance or about as much as you'd find in a serving of canned soup. Of course the recommended "portion" for these Pop Rocks Limon is 1/8 of the package.
I had one mouthful of the stuff and then tried dumping some out on a piece of paper and just eating the rocks but it's just too salty for me. I'd also like it to taste more like lemon. How hard would it be to put a little zesty lemon flavor in there too? I'm thinking someone might be able to come up with something interesting to do with this savory version of Pop Rocks. Maybe use it as the final garnish for a salad or something. Could be the next trend in haute cuisine.
The one thing that I did really like about this version of Pop Rocks is the packaging. The long, narrow tube is much easier to handle than the flat packs that Pop Rocks usually come in. It's easy to fold over and reseal and easy to dispense onto the tongue.

Pop Rocks Dips
Name: Pop Rocks Dips
I'm old enough to remember Pop Rocks when they were first introduced (then made by General Foods which later dropped them). And I liked them then. I also liked to experiment with them. You know, what happens if you put them in soda? In milk? Will the dog eat them? What if you dry your tongue out by holding it in front of a fan for twenty minutes and then put the pop rocks on it? The variety as a child was endless. (I guess my mother never stressed that whole, "don't play with your food thing.")
This new iteration of Pop Rocks solves one of the issues of dispensing Pop Rocks for consumption. Before you'd either have to pour it into your mouth or out onto you hand and it'd invariably get sticky there. This packet of Pop Rocks includes a little rocket shaped lollipop (of the same flavor) for wetting in your mouth and dipping into the foil pack. The lolly itself is pretty good, not terribly sour or flavorful, but a good delivery device.
Pop Rocks themselves are interesting, probably a candy to be enjoyed in a group. Tart and crunchy with a good fizz. When I was a kid, I think the only flavors they came in were orange and grape. I liked the orange best. The rocks themselves are more like flakes (I'm not sure, but I thought they looked like little crisped rice kernels when I was a kid, but who knows).
If I have one tip for the packaging is to put the lolly in a separate package and make the Pop Rocks envelope a little smaller. It's damn hard to get the little lolly into that big bag where the Pop Rocks only cover the bottom of it. Also, it's been damn humid here lately, so if you open the package and don't eat it right away, be sure to close it tightly, mine ended up being one big pop rock.
Good fun. Additional Info - How Do Pop Rocks Work?, Mikey from the Life Cereal Commercials and Pop Rocks, Super 70s Website and the unofficial Pop Rocks website.
Rating - 6 out of 10 (I might buy it again if they made orange)

Platinum Genotype Tsp DNA Polymerase
Invitrogen™ Platinum™ GenotypeTsp DNA Polymerase is a unique genetically engineered thermostable polymerase (Tsp) which is precomplexed with anti-Tsp antibodies for use in Hot Start PCR. It is designed specifically and functionally tested for amplification of dinucleotide repeat loci in genotyping reactions. It is genetically engineered such that:
- It does not have any 3′ exonuclease activity.
- It lacks 5′ exonuclease activity.
It's extendase activity (tendency to tail DNA with "nontemplate additions") is significantly diminished. Platinum Genotype Tsp DNA polymerase is engineered so that it can be readily substituted into standard PCR conditions that were designed for Taq DNA polymerase. PCR reactions employing Platinum Tsp can be set up at room temperature.
Properties of Tsp Polymerase vs. Taq DNA Polymerase
Researchers performing dinucleotide genotyping using Taq DNA polymerase often have difficulty determining the correct size of the alleles they are amplifying. This is due to the tendency of Taq to add non template nucleotides to PCR products. The PCR product fraction containing an extra nucleotide varies widely between primer sets and in any given reaction, the percentage of product containing an extra nucleotide may range from 0-100%. Platinum GenotypeTsp DNA polymerase addresses this problem because of its greatly reduced propensity for adding an extra nucleotide! In greater than 90% of the primer sets examined, PCR products exhibited no extra nucleotide addition, and where nontemplate nucleotide addition is detected, less than 10% of the PCR product actually contained the extra nucleotide.
|Tsp DNA Polymerase
|Taq DNA Polymerase
|3′ Exonuclease

Limitations of Tsp
Tsp is NOT suitable for amplifying PCR fragments larger than 500 bp. (The same modifications which eliminated the 5′ exonuclease and changed the polymerase to decrease the extendase activity; decreases its ability to amplify large fragments).
Antibody properties
Like Platinum Taq DNA Polymerase, Platinum Tsp DNA polymerase in precomplexed with antibodies. The antibodies, however, are different than those used with Platinum Taq. They denature at ~72°C, and are very effective for automatic Hot Start PCR.

Today sees the release of the new Google Nexus 4 smartphone and the Nexus 10 tablet, both announced at the end of October to considerable excitement, primarily over their competitive pricing and their unusual, in the U.S. at least, method of sale.
Eager buyers in Australia, the UK, Spain, France and Germany should all have access to the Google Play store by now, where they'll find the new phone and tablet all ready and waiting. At least, that's the theory, except not everyone is finding Nexus Day a very pleasant experience.
Australia was the first to go live, and according to buyers trying to order from the site, the Nexus 4 had sold out in 20 minutes, and the Nexus 10 soon after. AndroidAustralia.com confirmed with Google that the Nexus 4 was indeed sold out, and was told simply to "stay tuned for updates about availability.
It's a similar story in the UK too, with the Nexus 4 altering from "Buy Now" to either "Notify Me," or simply "Coming Soon" after half-an-hour. The rush to order one of Google's new toys was so great, many found they couldn't access the site, then even if they did get in, adding a device to the shopping basket was impossible.
Reports from Spain and France say the same thing: No stock and terrible trouble accessing the store. A Twitter search reveals plenty of annoyed prospective buyers, with one tweet from the UK perfectly summing up the situation: "Received email to say Nexus 4 is now available. Clicked on it. Sold out."
Google hasn't made many friends so far today, so it'll be interesting to see how it does closer to home. Google isn't telling anyone when it's going to open the doors in the U.S., however around 9am PST is now rumored after the initial 12.00am PST target was missed.
It's safe to say that if you want to be among the first to get a Nexus 4 or Nexus 10, you'll need to stay close to your computer, as it could all be over very quickly.
In the meantime check out our reviews of the Google Nexus 10 tablet and the Google Nexus 4 smart phone.

President Schwarzenegger???
This got me wondering and I did a little looking to find there is a movement starting to change this requirement in the constitution. There is a CNN article from 2004 that quotes Schwarzenegger saying it should be changed (he said that anyone who had been a citizen for over 20 years (as he has) should be able to run) and About.com brings up some interesting questions on this issue:
So, Schwarzenegger, a state governor married into a leading political family, can't run for President because he was born an Austrian citizen, in Austria. But an American baby born to US citizen parents abroad, even to, say, a US president, and then raised in the US for life, can never run for president either.
A Swahili baby, born to non-citizen parents vacationing on US soil, and then taken back to Swahili and raised there, can become President though. The child of illegal border crossers from Central or South America, who crossed the border simply to birth a child in the States, can run for president. See where this argument is going?
Democrats may not like the idea of Schwarzenegger for president. They may be right that he is less than an ideal candidate, but not because he was born abroad. (His alleged idealization of Hitler and sexual harassments are a different subject altogether).
In an age when a woman nine-months pregnant can get to the opposite side of the globe in 24 hours or less, and back again, the born-on-American-soil clause may indeed be outdated.
While I was looking, I even found a petition online to let Schwarzenegger run. Now whether or not you thinking Schwarzenegger should be President, do you think this requirement should be changed? Is it outdated as About.com argues? Or is it a tradition we should keep? Is it important that our President be born on US soil?

Some say that President Arthur was born in Canada and should never have been president. He turned out OK.
I have no problem with changing the Constitution to allow the Terminator to run. (Or Jenny Granholm who is the Canadian born Governor of Michigan.)
- Jennie W said...
There is also a theory that Andrew Jackson was actually born at sea BEFORE his mother made it to the US.
- The Tour Marm said...
In my opinion, the US President/Vice President should be either born of American parents (native born or naturalized) in the US or on a US base/hospital. And a residency requirement of 8/10 of one's life should have been spent in the US.
Children born in the US of illegal aliens or foreign nationals should be excluded.
- NoZe said...
Ultimately, I trust the wisdom of the voters. Let naturalized citizens run for president...if they don't have a sufficient stake in this country, they won't go very far in the electoral process. I trust the voters to distinguish between a Schwarzenegger who, despite the fact that he's naturalized, has clearly lived most of his adult life in the U.S. and has devoted himself to this country, and the hypothetical Somalian who, while a natural born citizen, really has no ties to this country.

Ball Camel Toe. An unfortunate situation that afflicts all males at least once in their life. This is what happens when the pants (or shorts) have ridden too high and the ball bag becomes unnaturally divided. One nut dives for the left leg and one dives for the right. Unpleasent to have and unplesant to view, but pretty funny to discuss. Common at gyms, senior centers, the Tour de France, and anywhere you find cowboys. See also Moose Knuckle

Marcus Antonius and Cleopatra VII are considered by many to be one of history's most fascinating couples. The pair certainly resonated with William Shakespeare, who made them the subject of one his greatest tragedies.
Their love affair, their war together, their defeat and, finally, their suicides have been told and retold for centuries. Now it's Hofstra's turn to tell the tale, as the featured production of this year's Shakespeare Festival, which runs March 14-24.
The festival enters its 64th season, with an ambitious staging of the Bard's captivating masterpiece, directed by Dr. James J. Kolb, a longtime faculty member in the Department of Drama and Dance. It features a cast of 23 Hofstra students, who have enthusiastically taken on the task of mastering the demands of this play.
"It's a tricky piece," said Dr. Kolb, "because it takes place over 10 years and there are 42 scenes in 10 different places. It has to be approached cinematically and can be considered a challenge for undergraduate students to perform. But part of our goal is to stretch them, and that is what we have done over our 64 years."
Antony and Cleopatras is one of Shakespeare's plays that seems to fall out favor periodically and then is 'reborn', according to Dr. Kolb. It is now being 'rediscovered' once again.
"The play seems to be on its way back again," he said. "Shakespeare is reinvented for every age and we are seeing that with Antony and Cleopatra now. Especially in this period of East/West tensions, it seems to fit our age."
Love and war shape the course of history in this passionate tale that crosses cultural boundaries. Love versus civic responsibility creates a dilemma for Antony that neither he nor Cleopatra can resolve or survive. One of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies is grounded in the historical facts of one of history's most famous romantic couples.

31243, Hymns, Father, Thy Children to Thee Now Raise, no. 91
1. Father, thy children to thee now raise
Glad, grateful songs for thy love and grace,
For thy protecting and watchful care
Over thy Saints dwelling far and near;
Grateful to thee for the gospel light,
Which with its truth fills us with delight,
Glad that we've chosen the better part.
Songs of delight fill each grateful heart.
2. Oh, may our songs to thy courts ascend;
Pleasing to thee may our voices blend.
Lead us as thou hast the faithful led;
Feed us with knowledge and daily bread.
Let us not stray from the paths of truth;
Forgive the folly and faults of youth.
Father, accept thou the songs of praise
Which from our hearts unto thee we raise.

If you know of any issues that customers might encounter during the transition to IPv6, please add a subheading to this page and explain both the problem and how to address it.
«Broken» users unable to access dual-stacked content
A small number of users have some kind of misconfiguration or bug in their internet connection that makes them unable to properly access dual-stacked web sites. More often than not, these users have no problems accessing IPv4-only sites, which causes them to perceive the dual-stacked site as the one having problems. A web site operator can detect these users using JavaScript and potentially warn them about the problem, see Warning broken users with JavaScript.
The existence of these users is unfortunately causing content providers to put off enabling IPv6. For more information, see these presentations by Yahoo (https://sites.google.com/site/ipv6implementors/2010/agenda/07 Fesler Y\!atGIPv6ImpConf.pdf?attredirects=0), Google, and Redpill Linpro.
This section attempts to document the most common causes as to why this happens, and how end users can solve it. It is based on real operational experience from running dual-stacked web sites.
Use of transitional IPv6 connectivity
Transitional IPv6 connectivity (6to4 or Teredo), is usually less reliable than IPv4. For this reason, the end user's web browser should prefer to use IPv4 when attempting to access dual-stacked site. This is well documented in I-D.vandevelde-v6ops-harmful-tunnels.
6to4 router functionality is implemented and often enabled by default in a large number of home gateway products made by several different vendors. This is unfortunately in accordance with Microsoft's requirements for Windows-compatible home routers. It is recommended to disable 6to4 functionality whenever possible.
Microsoft Windows
MS Windows automatically enables Teredo and 6to4 whenever possible. The system resolver library will de-prioritize their use, but not all applications use the system resolver library and will therefore end up preferring the less reliable transitional IPv6 connectivity.
Solution: Disable 6to4 and Teredo, by entering the following commands in an Administrator shell:
Internet Connection Sharing
If Internet Connection Sharing is enabled on any interface (it doesn't even have to be connected), the Windows hosts will announce itself as an IPv6 router to the local network. This will in turn cause problems for other operating systems that doesn't de-prioritize transitional IPv6 connectivity, notably Mac OS X (see below).
Solution: Disable Internet Connection Sharing whenever unused, and disable 6to4 and Teredo as described above.
Opera web browser
The Opera web browser uses its own resolver library, and would in versions earlier than 10.50 (on Microsoft Windows) and 10.63 (on Mac OS X and Linux) prefer transitional IPv6 connectivity above IPv4.
Solution: Upgrade Opera to the latest available version.
Apple Mac OS X
Mac OS X, in versions earlier than 10.6.5, do not de-prioritize 6to4.
Solution: Upgrade Mac OS X to the latest available version.
Versions predating 10.6.x «Snow Leopard»
At the time of writing, the patch that de-prioritizes 6to4 is only available for the «Snow Leopard» series (10.6.x). Avoiding 6to4 entirely is the best solution, but might not always be possible or feasible when another device in the network is announcing itself as a 6to4 router.
Work-around: Disable IPv6 completely in the operating system: System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> TCP/IP -> Configure IPv6 -> Off.
The GNU C Library will de-prefer transitional IPv6 connectivity if the local IPv4 address is not a private one (RFC 1918), due to a strict interpretation of RFC 3484 (see SW#11438).
Solution: Upgrade the Linux distribution to Debian Squeeze, Fedora 13 Goddard, Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, Mandriva 2010.1 Spring, openSUSE 11.3, Gentoo 2010-04-25, or any later versions.
Alternative solution: Add the following lines to the file /etc/gai.conf (create it if it doesn't exist):
Earlier versions of Android preferred transitional IPv6 connectivity above IPv4.
Solution: Upgrade Android to version 2.2 Froyo or later
Home gateways and broadband routers
Several D-Link models from the DIR and DSL series (at least DSL-584T, DSL-G624T, DSL-G664T, DSL-G684T), do not correctly forward DNS responses for hostnames with both A and AAAA records published. What it does is to stuff the first 32 bits of the AAAA record into the A record that's being returned to the end user's computer. In other words, getipv6.info will incorrectly resolve to 188.8.131.52 (the 2001:0500: part of the IPv6 address). If the operating system or web browser prefers to use IPv4, it will be unable to connect to the destination.
Italian ISP Wind/Infostrada is reported to have distributed the DSL-G624T to its customer base over a period of several years.
It doesn't happen all the time - it appears to be timing-dependent. Mozilla Firefox browsers are hit particularly bad, due to the fact that it will request AAAA lookups even if the local host does not have an IPv6 address.
Solution: Attempt to upgrade the firmware of the router to the latest version. If that doesn't help, replace the router.
Alternative work-around 1: If the user is using Mozilla Firefox, disable AAAA lookups by setting the value network.dns.disableIPv6 to true in the about:config advanced settings editor.
Alternative work-around 2: Disable IPv6 in the operating system, which will in most cases suppress AAAA lookups.
Cisco Linksys
The Cisco Linksys E3000 is known to number LAN hosts from the documentation prefix 2001:db8::/32 using DHCPv6, while the WRVS4400N is pre-configured with 2005:123:456:789::/64 for its default DHCPv6 range. Other models that share the same software code might of course also have the same problem. These addresses are bogons and cannot be successfully used for any communication on the IPv6 internet.
Solution: Ensure the routers are operating in IPv4-only mode. On the WRVS4400N, this setting is found under Setup -> IP Versions.
Certain models of the AVM Fritzbox is known to have ULA (RFC 4193) functionality based on recommendations from I-D.ietf-v6ops-ipv6-cpe-router revision 07 or earlier. When enabled, this leads to dual-stack problems for all hosts behind the router due to the fact that ULA addresses isn't special-cased by any modern operating system.
Solution: Ensure the ULA functionality is disabled.
Bugs in operating system TCP/IP stacks
Apple Mac OS X
Use of IPv6 with only link-local addresses
When attempting to connect to an IPv6 address when the system has only link-local IPv6 addresses (but at the same time a default IPv6 route), a 75 second timeout is incurred instead of an internal beyond scope of source address error being instantly generated. A system will be vulnerable to this bug if it has received an ICMPv6 Router Advertisement message that does not contain any Prefix Information Options, for example.
This will especially affect users of Mozilla Firefox, as it requests AAAA records even though the system does not have any global IPv6 addresses (see bug #614526), and will attempt to connect to the IPv6 addresses in preference to falling back to IPv4. Safari also suffered from this problem up until Mac OS X 10.6.4.
Solution: Identify and disable the source of the ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets.
Work-around 1: If the user is using Mozilla Firefox, disable AAAA lookups by setting the value network.dns.disableIPv6 to true in the about:config advanced settings editor.
Work-around 2: Disable IPv6 completely in the operating system: System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> TCP/IP -> Configure IPv6 -> Off.
Handling of Router Advertisements with a lifetime of 0
When receiving an Router Advertisement packet with a lifetime of 0, Mac OS X-based hosts will incorrectly install a default route. If the RA in question does not contain any Prefix Information Option, this bug will trigger the Use of IPv6 with only link-local addresses bug described above. Portugese ISP SAPO is known to distribute a CPE to its customers (Pirelli A1000G) that emits such RAs by default.
The technique of using a lifetime of 0 to announce an IPv6 router without global connectivity is also used by devices conforming to I-D.ietf-v6ops-ipv6-cpe-router in the case where ULA addressing are used within the residental site. In this situation the Mac OS X host will attempt to use ULA IPv6 addresses for global connectivity, leading to timeouts towards dual-stacked content.
Apple bug ID: 8705091.
Work-around: Identify and disable the source of the ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets.
Work-around: Disable IPv6 completely in the operating system: System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> TCP/IP -> Configure IPv6 -> Off.
Handling of ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable
When a router in the network responds to a TCP SYN packet with an ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable, Mac OS X will re-transmit the TCP SYN packet five times with intervals of one second before giving up, even though the ICMPv6 code indicates that the situation is permanent and further attempts are pointless (e.g. Code 2 - Beyond scope of source address). In other words, an avoidable four-second timeout is incurred for every outgoing TCP connection.
Microsoft Windows
Handling of ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable
Microsoft Windows appears to ignore received ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable completely, instead falling back on the overall connection timeout mechanism. This causes a completely avoidable 21 second long timeout to occur for every outbound TCP connection.
Apple iOS
No fallback from IPv6 to IPv4
Apple iOS 4.2 is reported to not be able to fall back from IPv6 to IPv4, if the initial IPv6 connection attempt fails.
Short of ensuring that any IPv6 connectivity present work perfectly, there is no known workaround. This reported to Apple in bug #8702877.
Firewall Config Issue
Especially if you have users on Vista.
It does this IPv6 tunnelling thing that on the surface
appears really cool. When you try and talk IPv6 to
something other than link-local: (in order)
- If you have a non-RFC1918 (ie. 'public') address, it fires up 6to4.
- If you have an RFC1918 address, it fires up Teredo.
Seems cool in theory, and you'd think that it would really help global IPv6 deployment - I'm sure that's how it was intended, and I applaud MS for taking a first step. But in practice, however, this has essentially halted any IPv6 /content/ deployment that people want to do, as user experience is destroyed.
You can help, though - here's the problem:
6to4 uses protocol 41 over IP. This doesn't go through NAT, or stateful firewalls (generally). Much like GRE.
Because of this, if you're a enterprise-esque network operator who runs
non-RFC1918 addresses internally and do NAT, or you do stateful firewalling, PLEASE, run a 6to4 relay on 220.127.116.11 internally, but return
ICMPv6 unreachable/admin denied/whatever to anything that tries to send data out through it. Better yet, tell your firewall vendor to allow you to inspect the contents of 6to4 packets, and optionally run your own 6to4 relay, so outgoing traffic is fast.
Even if you don't want to deploy IPv6 for some time, do this at the very least RIGHT NOW, or you're preventing those of us who want to deploy AAAA records alongside our A records from doing so. If you need configs for <vendor/OS B/C/J/L>, post a message to the NANOG list and I'll write some templates.
I see this sort of IPv4 network quite commonly at universities, where students take their personal laptops and throw them on the campus 802.11 network. While disabling the various IPv6 things in Vista at an enterprise policy level might work for some networks, it doesn't for for a university with many external machines visiting. So, if you're a university with a network like this (ie. most universities here in NZ, for example), please spend a day or two to fix this problem in your network - or better yet, do a full IPv6 deployment.
--Nathan Ward
Increased Latency to your IPv6 Content
If you do deploy an IPv6 network for your content, set up a Teredo relay, and point 2001::/32 at it. Your viewers/users will automatically use this relay when accessing your content, and their traffic to you will be over IPv4, all they way from their PC to your network - so, equivalent performance as IPv4. Note that I say relay here, not server.
Mozilla.org are doing this for example. Cue Matthew Zeier.

Although wine-growing in Oregon stretches from the California border to Washington, for most wine lovers Oregon means the Willamette Valley, a temperate, ocean-influenced growing area extending from Portland south to Eugene, or roughly a hundred miles. The majority of the state's best producers are grouped around the towns of McMinnville, Carlton, Dundee, and Newberg, as well as near the state capital, Salem.
Oregon's past and future reputation as a world-class growing region rests squarely on Pinot Noir. Hyped in the early 1980s as the New World's answer to red Burgundy, Oregon Pinot Noir has steadily improved since then as local growers have discovered the best sites and done a better job matching clones to microclimates.
Oregon's Pinots typically feature exuberant cherry-berry aromas and flavors; varying degrees of spicy oak; medium body; and reasonable tannin levels. They generally carry moderate alcohol in the 12.5% to 14% range, lower than those of today's typical Pinots from California, although very warm years can bring wines with higher alcohol and more roasted flavors. Rarely austere or tough on release, the best Oregon Pinots gain in complexity with three to five years of bottle aging, and top wines from the most successful vintages can improve in bottle for a decade or more. ""Tender"" might be an apt description of the best Oregon Pinot Noirs.
Oregon Pinot Gris is usually fermented to complete dryness, and few examples see much oak. The top producers make brisk, highly aromatic, light- to medium-bodied wines that emphasize orchard fruits, often with citrus elements as well. These wines are excellent choices with a range of warm-weather fare and go especially well with light, fresh seafood preparations.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 2, 2013) - NOVAGOLD RESOURCES INC. (NG.TO)(NYSE MKT:NG) today purchased $72,821,000 of the principal amount of its $95,000,000 outstanding 5.5% Convertible Notes due May 1, 2015 (the "Notes"), pursuant to the terms and indenture governing the Notes which provided Holders the opportunity to require NOVAGOLD to purchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes on May 1, 2013 (the "Put Option").
Following NOVAGOLD's purchase of the Notes pursuant to the Put Option, $22,179,000 of the principal amount of the Notes remain outstanding and due on May 1, 2015. The terms and other provisions of the indenture governing the Notes remain unchanged. As such, interest in the amount of $2,612,500 was paid on May 1, 2013 to Holders of record on April 15, 2013 and interest on the remaining Notes will amount to $1,219,845 per year for the next two years.
With nearly $220 million in cash and cash equivalents at May 2, 2013, NOVAGOLD maintains a strong balance sheet and believes it has more than sufficient cash resources to fund the advancement of its flagship Donlin Gold project in Alaska through the permitting process and support ongoing activities at its Galore Creek project in British Columbia.
About NOVAGOLD
NOVAGOLD is a well-financed precious metals company engaged in the exploration and development of mineral properties in North America. Its flagship asset is the 50%-owned Donlin Gold project in Alaska, one of the safest jurisdictions in the world. With a total of approximately 34 million ounces(1) of gold in the Proven and Probable reserve categories (505 million tonnes at an average grade of approximately 2.1 grams per tonne), Donlin Gold is regarded to be one of the largest, and most prospective known gold deposits in the world. According to the updated feasibility study (as defined below), once in production, Donlin Gold should average approximately 1.5 million ounces of gold per year for the first five years, followed by decades of more than one million ounces of gold per year on a 100% basis. The potential for adding to reserves at Donlin Gold is considered excellent, both within the proposed mine area, along strike and at depth, and throughout the property. The current reserves and resources occupy only three kilometers of a mineralized belt that is eight kilometers long. Permitting is underway for the Donlin Gold project, a clearly defined process expected to take approximately 3 years. NOVAGOLD also owns 50% of the Galore Creek copper-gold-silver project located in northern British Columbia. According to the 2011 pre-feasibility study, Galore Creek is expected to be the largest copper mine in Canada, a tier-one jurisdiction, when it is put into production. NOVAGOLD is currently evaluating opportunities to sell all or a portion of its interest in Galore Creek and would apply the proceeds toward the development of Donlin Gold. NOVAGOLD has a strong track record of forging collaborative partnerships, both with local communities and with major mining companies.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors
This press release has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all resource and reserve estimates included in this press release have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and resource and reserve information contained herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term "resource" does not equate to the term "reserves". Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The SEC's disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" or "inferred mineral resources" or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute "reserves" by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. U.S. investors should also understand that "inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an "inferred mineral resource" will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated "inferred mineral resources" may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an "inferred mineral resource" exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of "reserves" are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported by NOVAGOLD in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as "reserves" under SEC standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards.

Once again, it is up to Johan Santana to pick up the pieces following another Mets' loss. This one a crushing defeat when the bullpen and offense conspired to take a win away from Jonathan Niese.
With a little run support, Santana could have 13, 14 wins by now, but the Mets simply don't score for him. They don't score for anybody these days. Maybe this afternoon against Colorado it will be different, but there were no such signs coming out of last night's loss which featured seven straight Mets striking out.
David Wright is in the midst of a 2-for-33 slide and the strikeouts are mounting again. He could get the afternoon off. Jerry Manuel also hinted at giving Jose Reyes a day off, too. Reyes recently admitted his concentration wanders at time and he loses focus.
Reyes' game, especially defensively, has been spotty lately.
NOTE: I have another work assignment today and won't be in the chat room until later in the game.

Feds say couple stole $2.5 million from casino nightclubs
The controller and chief financial officer for an entertainment group that owns and operates restaurants and nightclubs at Foxwoods Resort Casino has been charged, along with her husband, with embezzling more than $2.5 million from the company.
The government alleges that Lynn A. Scheufler, 34, and Craig L. Galligan, 40, used $1.4 million in embezzled funds to gamble at Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun. They were arrested Wednesday at their Woodstock home, according to U.S. Attorney David B. Fein. They later were presented in federal court in Hartford and released on bond.
Scheufler was the controller and CFO of Big Night Entertainment Group of Boston, which operates three venues at Foxwoods: Shrine Asian Kitchen Lounge and Nightclub, Scorpion Bar, and High Rollers Luxury Lanes and Lounge.
She is charged with wire fraud and illegally structuring financial transactions. As CFO, she was responsible for all aspects of the company's finances, including using cash proceeds from the business that had been placed into nightly deposit bags to fill ATM machines in the company's venues.
She is accused of taking cash out of the deposit bags and making unauthorized withdrawals using the company's ATM cards. She concealed the thefts by misstating or altering the company's books and records, according to the government.
Galligan, who worked as a financial analyst for another company, is charged with illegally structuring financial transactions. According to the government, the couple deposited more than $700,000 in cash into their personal bank accounts. They made the deposits in increments smaller than $10,000 so as to avoid triggering bank reporting requirements.
The Big Night Entertainment Group issued the following written statement through its public relations firm:
"We are deeply disappointed by this incident, and are working hand in hand with both the Internal Revenue Service and United States Attorney's Office as they uncover all the facts surrounding this elaborate scheme. Due to the ongoing nature of the investigation we are unable to provide further comment at this time."
According to court documents, the company retained an independent forensic accountant after the thefts were discovered to help reconstruct the company's books and records for the relevant time period. They also hired a new chief financial officer from outside the company.
Scheufler and Galligan are entitled to have the charges presented to a grand jury. If indicted, they also are entitled to a jury trial. Wire fraud carries a maximum prison sentence of 20 years. Structuring financial transactions carries a maximum prison term of five years.

The history of Chaumet has been entwined with the History of France ever since its founding in 1780, in Paris. Indeed, the Maisonvery quickly became the official jewellerto Empress Josephine. The High Jewellerysavoir-faire of the Maisonhas been passed down through generations of jewellersfor 235 years. Crafted at the very heart of the place Vendôme, the jewelleryand watchmaking creations reflect these exceptional skills and pay tribute to the Parisian style.
A visual journey through the universe of Chaumet's collections, the Gaités Parisiennes film tells the story of the Parisian Maison. A dreamlike introduction in the steps of Empress Josephine at the Malmaison leads to the lighthearted promenade of a young couple through Paris, between past and present, nature and culture.

Enrique Cruz is a famed director of black and latino (blatino) gay pornographic films based in New York City. His production company is called Lamancha Videos. In the mid to late 1990s, Cruz's films helped to usher in a new era for black gay pornography. His films were innovative in that hip-hop culture influenced the behavior of the models/actors filmed on screen. He also used hip-hop music as the score to his films rather than elevator music, house, or techno which had been the norm in black gay films before Cruz came on the scene. Cruz's actors/models tend to be young, urban, masculine, homothugs, regardless of their sexual role. His films also portray down low culture. Some of his best works include "Tiger's Brooklyn Tales", "Off The Hook", "Off The Hook Pt. 2", "Urban Hard Drive", "Aprende" and "Hard Core". Most consider "Off The Hook" to be his artistic peak.
Enrique Cruz's films are so hot, I love watching young thugs suck, and fuck each other in the ass.

Rickie Fowler plans to match $100K donation by Colonial fans to Oklahoma tornado relief
FORT WORTH, Texas – Rickie Fowler is encouraging fans attending the Colonial to contribute to relief efforts after the deadly tornado this week in Oklahoma.
And Fowler is going to do his part for the state where he spent two years playing college golf at Oklahoma State.
Fowler said Wednesday he will match the first $100,000 given by Colonial fans with a donation of his own.
While he doesn't know anybody personally in Moore, Okla., Fowler says he has friends who know people around there, and that it was hard to watch and "pretty tragic to see."
The California-born Fowler says Oklahoma is a great part of the country and is always going to be part of who he is.
