The Caliphate has been declared! Rejoice amongst yourselves! Celebrate with champagne sparkling water, women loads of other blokes, and a great deal of glee confusion. Come on! It's time to go! Hey guys, the Caliphate has been declared! You've been banging on about this moment for ages now. Book your flights! You can now all finally live in the splendour squalor which you have long-imagined and campaigned for! ISIS, those brave warriors for freedom, have said that the 'Islamic State' is now in full force. Don't you understand? Wait... what do you mean you don't want to go? Come on Anjem, come on Hamza, come on Jamal ...Jordan!? It is time to live under the Shariah! I'll even book your flights for you! No? You don't want to go to an extremely dangerous region, you say? Oh you want to remain in the comfort of the West, suckling at the teet of the taxpayer while holding marches in favour of the caliphate on our streets? Hmmm. What do you mean it might get "hairy" over there? Don't be silly. Islamists wouldn't hurt one of their own, would they? Oh, I see what you mean. They did kill that guy who was friendly with a Hamas leader. But that's in Gaza right? They're all nuts there! What? They crucified fellow jihadis for not being extreme enough? Hmm, well... I'm sure you can all work on your extremism on the plane, no? We'll make sure the airline has a wide variety of 'On Demand Anwar al Awlaki' videos for you. Oh COME ON guys. Don't let us all down now. You've been flying the bloody flag for this thing for so long now, and once you finally get it, you don't want it?! Bloody ingrates. Those ISIS guys have been doing all your dirty work and this is how you thank them! Well fine, stay here then. But let me tell you something. I don't want to hear a peep out of you about this bloody 'caliphate' rubbish anymore. Find a new drum to bang! Like climate change. Or the Bedroom Tax. At least those guys are totally not hypocrites, right? Er... right? (h/t Ghaffar Husain for the idea for this piece)

It seems to me you could do this without setting up a dns server. Just
tcpdump the traffic or sniff or snoop the traffic. It you set it up with a
snaplength of 1500 you'll get enough of the packet to see exactly what dns
query is being asked...something like
tcpdump -n -s 1500 udp and port 53 and host 126.96.36.199
then you'll be able to tell if the queries are all for one specific domain
(meaning something has that IP registered as an authoritative server for
that domain) or are the queries for many different domains meaning people
think you have a dns server they can use as a resolver.
We have seen the second case happen before, but generally it has been easy
to fix. For instance, if our domain was 192.168.13.0, we'll notice that the
source addresses of ALL the queries will come from something like
188.8.131.52 and obviously they have accidentally typo'd something in their
dhcp server. Then we use ARIN or some other website to figure out a POC for
that network, call them and they fix the typo.
Same with issue number one, once you know the domain they are querying, you
can find the POC of that domain and get them to fix the problem. Hopefully,
it is one of these two issues. Good luck!
Paul Schmehl <pauls () utdallas edu> writes:
What I want to know is *why* do these "foreign" hosts think an IP on
my network is serving DNS when there's not even a host at that address.
I can think of two possibilities:
1) At some time in the past, a host *was* serving DNS at that address
and some "foreign" hosts have cached the address.
2) Someone somewhere has registered a domain and used our IP address
for one of their "nameservers" in the registration.
(If anyone can think of other explanations, please let me know.)
Some bogus resolver, or forwarder, setup.
Now how is a reverse lookup going to help you with that?
It won't.
The best suggestion yet has been to set up a name server at that
address with verbose logging. That's probably what I will do next
Yes, just put no zone at all and log queries. After a while, you should be
able to figure out "why" you receive these queries.

Learn how 'free' calcium works in our body
The mystery behind free-flowing calcium in our body and its role has been unlocked for the first time.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins have figured out a key step in how 'free' calcium - the kind not contained in bones - is managed in the body.
The finding could aid in the development of new treatments for a variety of neurological disorders that include Parkinson's disease, says the study published in the journal Nature Chemical Biology.
"Electrical signals carried by free-floating calcium ions are wildly important to keep the second-by-second functions of the body going," said David Yue, professor of biomedical engineering and neuroscience at The Johns Hopkins University.
According to Yue and his team, large proteins called calcium channels are the gatekeepers that determine when calcium enters cells.
Embedded in cell membranes, these channels open and shut to regulate calcium flow into the cell.
"When calcium goes into cells, it sets off a cascade of vital activity, but just the right amount of calcium must enter - otherwise, problems arise," Yue added.
To achieve this balance, two chemical regulators bind to calcium channels as a brake and accelerator for calcium entry.
Calmodulin, one type of calcium channel-binding protein, stops calcium from flowing through, while other proteins, known as calcium-binding proteins, accelerate calcium entry, the study said.
"Our experiments established that calmodulin and calcium-binding proteins work by binding to distinct parts of the calcium channel," explained Yue.
The researchers have been able to investigate how large molecules such as these function in living cells, the study said.

The movie, which Sight & Sound magazine named the fifth best film of 2012, tells of a mousy British foley artist (sound effects specialist) played by Toby Jones who is summoned to Italy to work on a giallo (erotic horror) film that evokes the work of Dario Argento (Suspiria).

Do you think horses should be slaughtered in the United States?
(WHAS11) - Horsemen who are applauding the return of horse slaughterhouses in the United States have gained an unlikely ally, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
Saying the ban ultimately caused more suffering to horses, the animal rights organization has taken the unusual step to endorse the move.
"There simply aren't enough resources for the kind people and sanctuaries who are willing to take in unwanted horses," said Ashley Byrne, PETA's manager of campaigns.
Nearly five years after the U.S. government effectively banned the slaughterhouses, an Agriculture Appropriations Bill signed into law by President Obama in November restores funding to USDA horse meat inspections.
It's a matter of too many horses and not enough people to take care of them. Horses are expensive to keep and horse neglect cases have risen in recent years.
"We still have people calling our offices this week, saying 'I love my horses. My husband lost his job or I lost my job. I cannot afford to keep them. I haven't been able to sell them,'" said Ginny Grulke, Executive Director of the
Kentucky Horse Council, "'What do I do with them? I cannot afford to feed them.'"
Some horses end up at one of Kentucky's 14 non-profit rescue operations, but those sanctuaries can only do so much.
"All of the rescues registered in the United States can only hold 15,000 horses," explained Dave Duquette, President of United Horsemen, a group leading the slaughterhouse effort, "When you're talking about 9 million horses in the United States, 15,000 horses isn't even a drop in the bucket."
Duquette estimates that three-quarters of the horse industry supports horse slaughterhouses. He says investors are lining up to resume slaughterhouse operations, as much to end horse suffering as to make a profit.
"They are in it for the welfare of horses and the horse industry," Duquette said in a phone interview from his quarter horse business in Oregon.
Duquette says the horsemen warned of dire consequences when the federal government put slaughterhouses out of business five years ago.
"Up until this year, (slaughterhouse opponents) were still living on the thought of, 'well there are no unwanted horses, there's no unwanted horses, where are they?'" Duquette said, "Well, they were being turned loose all over the country and thousands and thousands of horses have starved to death and died."
Duquette said the de facto ban has also "decimated" the horse industry.
Byrne said the ban did not end the slaughter of U.S. horses; it simply prolonged the animals' agony because doomed horses were shipped to Mexico and Canada.
"They are enduring a long miserable journey in the process," Byrne said, "Very often they are shipped in containers where they can't even raise their heads up all the way. They are with unfamiliar horses who bite and kick them. They are standing in their own waste. So, the horses were still going to slaughter, they simply were having to endure a miserable journey first."
Last year alone, 138,000 U.S. horses were exported to foreign slaughterhouses, according to a General Accounting Office (GAO) study. Those facilities exercise different animal euthanasia standards than in the U.S..
"Of course the best option would be to ban slaughter in the U.S. and to ban the export of live horses so that no one is slaughtering America's horses," Byrne said.
Short of that, PETA's next step is to discourage horse overpopulation by discouraging horse breeding.
"As long as industries like the horse racing industry and rodeo industry are breeding horses and simply discarding them when they are no longer considered of use, as long as horses are looked at as commodities by the industries, horse slaughter will exist either here or overseas," Byrne explained.
Michael Blowen, the owner of Old Friends Thoroughbred Retirement Center in Georgetown, Kentucky, agrees.
"You can't advertise these horses as great athletes and have people come out to Keeneland, come out to Churchill Downs on Derby Day, come spend all this money at the racetrack, then turn around and throw them out like they were garbage," Blowen said.
"We have to raise more money. We have to find more facilities. We have to be able to do a much better job of providing a retirement for these horses because that's our jobs," Blowen continued.

Poor shooting overall and some serious ball control issues against Milwaukee last Friday notwithstanding, Roy Hibbert is having a fine season. Josh McRoberts, aside from a tough game during a blowout win against Philly, has also played well in somewhat limited minutes. Even Tyler Hansbrough, who is still a rookie experience-wise, has been a decent spark-plug off the bench in the moments when he isn't getting lost on defense.
Other than that, the Pacers have some serious big man issues.
We all knew James Posey would see some time at the four. So far, he has given the team nothing in terms of actual production. Danny Granger will likely see some more time at PF as well. We knew this would happen after Troy Murphy was traded away and no outside replacement was brought in, but I think we also know that even Jim O'Brien doesn't think this is a viable long-term solution.
Then there is Solomon Jones. Who has been a disaster.
In 58 minutes so far this season, he has 3 rebounds, 10 points, 0 blocked shots and 14 personal fouls. Not only is that not helping the team win, it is directly increasing the chances that the Pacers will lose. The guy has been a pretty good shot-blocker the past two seasons, so expect his blocks-per-minute totals to revert back to the mean before much longer. But the rest of the stuff is likely going to stay ugly. He has never shown any ability to rebound or put points on the board when given minutes since he entered the NBA in 2006.
And thus we delve into one of the key storylines of the early season: the Pacers simply have a lot of trouble competing when Roy Hibbert is not on the floor.
Overall, Indiana has outscored its opponent by 32 points when Hibbert is in the game. When he sits? The team has been outscored by 59. If Roy had played exactly 50% of the minutes possible, that +32/-59 disparity would be bad enough. But the big fella, free from the minute-restriction shackles that his conditioning and foul-prone ways have imposed in the past (not to mention O'Brien at times), has played 166 of the total 240 minutes of the Pacers seasons thus far — meaning he has been playing for nearly 70% of all game action.
What are the Pacers to do presuming Jeff Foster is not going to be ready to fill in any time real soon and Solomon Jones isn't going to turn into Connie Hawkins even sooner?
Given the fact that they have a 15-man roster, it would seem as though making a move for the now-available (and former Pacers first-round draft pick) Erick Dampier might not be possible. Considering he reportedly might want to head to Toronto, it might be even less possible.
Still, the three-man rotation of Hibbert, McRoberts and Hansbrough doesn't seem like nearly enough. So whether or not Dampier himself is a actually viable option to scoop off the free agent pile, it seems clear that Indiana needs someone like Dampier to mop up the minutes that Roy is off the court with unspectacular, but serviceable play.
Dampier would immediately be the most imposing defender the Pacers could put in the paint. He would also be their best rebounder. Of all NBA centers last year, Dampier ranked 22nd in overall rebounding percentage (the percentage of available rebounds a player grabbed while he was on the floor). Such a ranking — nor his actual percentage of 17.9% — is not going to blow anyone away. But compared to Roy Hibbert's woeful 12.4% — good for 74th last year … among centers — that part of the game would likely improve when Dampier was spelling Roy.
Again, I don't think the Pacers have a legitimate chance to sign Dampier.
But it is increasingly starting to seem like the team may have to use one of its expiring contracts to acquire a back-up center if they actually do want to make a serious run at the playoffs this year. That may not be the best course of action, but it's hard to see the Pacers scaring any other team with a big man rotation consisting solely of Roy, two inexperienced PFs, Solomon Jones, perhaps a refurbished Jeff Foster and a couple of SFs playing out of position (Danny and Posey).
And, yes, I know they have only played five games.
But barring a major evolution by both Josh and Tyler really soon, do you see anything changing in the near future?

Archbishop Dolan on 60 Minutes
Morley Safer's simply awful interview of the good Archbishop which aired on CBS Sunday night. Lowlights include a strange obsession with Archbishop Dolan's weight, the obligatory interview of some hack from the National Catholic Reporter and the Jewish journalist's arrogant assertion that he knows what's best for the Church. (Spoiler alert: the sexual abuse crisis is mentioned!)
At best, one can simply delight in the charity and patience Archbishop Dolan displays throughout the interview. He truly rises above the occasion!

If we can't plead stupidity, what else is there? How do we live with ourselves? Is it all the stuff we buy that manages to numb our brains and consciences?
When I see a headline like this one at Bloomberg today, World Needs Record Saudi Oil Supply as OPEC Convenes, there's just one thought that pops into my head: what the world needs is for us to stop doing this thing we're doing. Even apart from peak oil concerns, it's obvious we're going to run out at some point or another, and it doesn't matter whether that's tomorrow or at some other point in the future, though we do know it's not going to take another 100 years, or even 50.
And nothing will ever take the place of oil; once those unique carbons are gone, that's it, we'll have to find a completely different way of running our societies, and if we're not smart enough to prepare for that beforehand, we'll be cats fighting in a sack and use the last scraps to kill off each other. And our legacy won't be the Greek thinkers and Picasso and Dostoyevsky and Walt Whitman and Maria Callas, since there won't be the means for our children anymore to share what makes man great between them. Our main legacy will instead be bloodshed, we will have gone the exact same path that any non-thinking or even primitive organism would have taken, who don't have opera or philosophy or poetry to their name.

Good for the gander? As Alaska warms, a goose forgoes a 3,300-mile migration — Environmental Health News
The vast marshes on the southwestern tip of the Alaskan peninsula must look like a buffet to a seagrass-loving goose like the Pacific black brant.
Right now virtually the entire population – about 160,000 birds – is gathered in the sheltered and remote wetlands within the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge, feasting on the most extensive beds of eelgrass on Earth.
In the past, the Izembek was just a stopover in the brant's autumn journey down North America's western coastline. After a short stay to fatten up, the sated sea geese would lift off together and head south on a 3,300-mile, nonstop migration to Mexico's Baja California.

The count of Wildcats in the NFL from the 2013 class is now 5 with the addition of Tevin Hood. The 5-11 314lb nose tackle got invited to join the New England Patriots minicamp this summer.
Tevin Hood has been invited to New England Patriots' mini camp. 5 Cats from '13 class now making their way to the NFL. #HardEdge #BearDown
— Arizona Football (@ArizonaFBall) May 12, 2014
Hood had quite a journey before he ended up back in his home state of Arizona. Hailing from football powerhouse Hamilton High School (Chandler, Arizona), Hood held a 4.52 GPA and had offers from prestigious academic schools such as Yale, Columbia and Princetown. Duke had never offered Hood a scholarship, but he committed anyways, hoping to earn a scholarship after his first semester. Displeased with the coaching staff, Hood decided to transfer to San Diego State University for his sophomore year. Once again, Hood wasn't satisfied and ultimately decided that transferring to Arizona as a walk-on seemed like the best option for him.
Hood was never a player to rack up an insane amount of tackles, but with his massive size he helped clog the trenches and stop the run. A 3-3-5 scheme allowed him to be focal point of the defensive line and flourish, where Hood recorded 39 tackles and one sack in 11 games this past year.
We wish him nothing but the best and hope the Patriots see Tevin Hood as a young Vince Wilfork, keeping him on the 53-man roster.

Dear Friend,
I hope the summer months are finding you well as the rainy days of spring have nicely transitioned to warmer and clearer forecasts.One of the many things we all have to deal with in the changing of the seasons is the shift in our wardrobes.We must put away our winter jackets and bring out our flips flops to adapt with the changing climate.This letter is being written in order to discuss a certain article of clothing that has become questionable by many of your peers.An intervention if you will, the topic being your continual use of black wife beaters.
We all understand that the recent arrival of summer as well as the ever-looming threat of global warming means making changes in our daily routine in order to keep cool.This sometimes means wearing articles of clothing that have less fabric such as shorts and even in some cases a sleeveless t-shirt.But you my friend, with your use of black wife beaters have taken this shedding of fabric to a new, seemingly unpractical and unappealing level.
You can ask almost any college-aged man that one of the best tactics in fighting a war against embarrassing underarm wetness is a thin unnoticeable undershirt.The shirt does not overheat its user and soaks up any sweaty residue that your deodorant may let pass through your pores.And there you are with your wildly striped Abercrombie button down with only the bottom half's buttons done up, exposing your black wife beater underneath and the stubble from a recent chest shave.Though one may believe this to be very sexually appealing, your shirt soon becomes drenched with sweat and smell leaving members of the opposite sex turned off.Your undershirt of choice has proven to be very unpractical.
For those of you who decide to venture outside into the sun's cosmic rays wearing only your favorite Jack Daniels logo black wife beater, there are also a few arguments against your shirt of choice.
The first applies to all wife beaters in general.Some may argue that a wife beater provides a better tan than a regular t-shirt as it coves less of the arm.But much like a short sleeve dress shirt which says "I want to seem dressed up, but just not have any sleeve beyond my lower elbow" a wife beater and its impending tan line say " I want to have my chiseled triceps golden bronze, but have my portly torso and rather untidy happy trail be an eggshell white"Its just a question of commitment.Maybe you should do some abs at the end of your next pump session and join the rest of the world with your shirt off at the beach.
The next argument is in regards to the color of said wife beater.Every six grade student who has had a unit on the earths weather systems knows that the color black attracts the sun causing the object, such as a car to become hotter than other objects of lighter colors.Ifyou have to wear a wife beater, why not the white alternative which would provide less harmful UV rays.But you, a mogul of fashion, insist on its black counterpoint which strikes fear into all who tread the boardwalk, daring them to cross paths with your floral pattern board shorts and Teva strap in sandals.It just doesn't seem practical is all we're trying to say.
I hope this letter has brought some thoughts to your mind on the topic of your black wife beaters.It is very understandable that if one "got's it" that he should "flaunt it" but your choice of undershirt and sometimes only shirt is becoming a drawback not only to your own health, but to the overall feelings of those around you.I hope in the future you choose an alternative when it comes to summer apparel.

19 today big man! Massive CrucialBMX HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. To celebrate, here is a photograph of him getting those hands off on our trip to 4Down last year. This was used for an advert.
Last month, good friend of mine Tom Skuse wanted a fresh setup for the summer months. We hooked him up with a Proper Trawlerman Frame and whole load of other sick goodies. How dope does this look!
Don't forget that we support and sponsor Bristol BMX Club's race meetings! They have a local race meet every Wednesday at Patchway Race Track. Unfortunately the weather isn't great for it tonight but its definitely something you should try to get along too. All ages on any type of BMX bike can race, all you need is to have a full-face helmet/Long sleeve Top and Bottoms/Rear Brake.
They are a great bunch of people and extremely welcoming.
We always have a shop stall so if there is anything specific you would like us to take along then please don't hesitate to give us a call.
Here is Alfie Lovell, one of our CrucialBMX Race Team riders, blast around in the wet:
I am so bad with names, like honestly you would never believe how bad. I could be introduced to someone, know their name and then within a couple of seconds its gone. As if someone just deleted it from my conscious mind...
Which leads me on to how bad i feel when i meet people again or need to remember someones names for something important, you know...like an incredible custom bike we built...
Anyway, enough about me and the people i forget, what about the bike! This sure turns heads at the skatepark. You definitely need to like purple, we think it's absolutely amazing. The white stickers really pop against the translucent purple.
Towards the end of May we had a customer in that wanted a full Failure build. We set him up with the Harry Main signature frame, Spar Forks, Maniac Bar and just about everything else they manufacture. Fly cranks, G-Sport Hubs and Rim's, Fit Tyres, 34R Brake setup and a BSD seat-post finish the package off just right.
Let us know what you think by tagging #CrucialGang on the social media sites!

The latest The Albion BMX Magazine came in earlier this week! You know the drill, pick one up free of charge in the store or click here to pick one up online (They ship will all orders)
This issue is full of really great editorial, here is what you can expect:
Editorial: This Too Will Pass

I'm guessing that majority of you that are reading this have probably never read or heard of BikeBiz and definitely didn't see Aprils issue of the magazine.
BikeBiz is a magazine that is given to all companies/people that are involved in the cyclin industry, we get a copy each month through our door free of charge. Normally i skim over it picking out the good bits, its mostly Mountain/Road Bike based and of little interest to us normally.
However, Aprils edition dropped onto my desk last month and boy was i shocked at what i found inside. BikeBiz had published an article where they take their readers stories/comment/votes and come up with the TOP 20 INDEPENDENT BICYCLE DEALERS in the UK.
WE CAME 11TH! Which is well, amazing....Below is pictures of the article, and also a summery of the reason why we were chosen. I had NO idea this was going on, we didn't contribute at all nor did we promote it/ask people to vote for us...
Might i add that we are the ONLY BMX SHOP on the list, all the other entries are large corporate billions of pounds worth of exclusive high-end bicycle shops where top-notch customer service is expected.
It was a real honour to see this.
Thanks BikeBiz for the article, glad someone out there is watch and listening, thank you to anyone that voted/commented or put forward a good story about us.
Another CrucialBMX packed Ride BMX Magazine...Are we the only people still advertising? ha. We got Max Wood busting out a sick article with good friend of the shop Mike Miller. Trails boy Adam Dear is testing the WeThePeople Envy 2013 and Emerson Morgan featured on our Crucial Advert (which is awesome, as you'd expect!).
"Issue 176 is here! In fact this maybe in your mitts right now, if not it won't be long until it is. Here's what's inside…It's this time of year that the road trips really start to get going. The weather kicks in and before you know it you're in a transit van watching your friend construct a makeshift lavatory from a Pringles tube and an empty tin of lager. We've got Walter Pieringer on location in Bogota, Columbia. Proper say Bon Voyage to the UK and nip over the channel with Mike Miller and Max Wood. Jason Phelan and his crew really get into the thick of things in "A Trip Like No Other" to South East Asia. Finally we're dodging raindrops in Toulouse with Marie Jade and Alex Valentino.
Premiums big footed hero Jordan Waters gives us a Bunch of Fives.
Pipe is on hand to give us his very eclectic Loves AND Hates.
WeThePeople's Envy complete bike is taken for a test drive in Tested.
Fancy the VIP treatment at NASS this year? For The Win. Could take care of that this issue..
Mike Miller's journey through France and how he clinched the front page is up in Cover Story.
We take an Insight with Mat Burton and his never ending construction job.
Two Danny's up in First Look. Messrs Crossley and Stanzl at your service.
Robbie Morales allowed us unlimited access to Cult, in this months Industry.
Sean Burns is the man of the hour in Say What. No more 45-16.
Greame Hardie updates us on life, BMX and everything in between in Where Are They Now.

The real draft is less than a week away, so let's get moving on our mock. Jerry Jones and the Cowboys are on the clock now, followed by the Redskins and Texans.
#9 – Dallas – Prince Amukamara (CB, Nebraska)
The Cowboys need some major help in the secondary, and they get a good one here. Patrick Peterson has taken some of the spotlight away from Amukamara, but The Prince is certainly no slouch. He fills a need, and his skill-set is worthy of being drafted this high.
#10 – Washington – Aldon Smith (DE, Mizzou)
The Skins could go many different ways with this pick, because the have a ton of holes that need to be filled. Julio Jones is an option, and they could also look at the quarterback position. If they aren't in love with any of the other quarterbacks, I think they go after a pass-rusher here. Smith has the ability to develop into an elite sack machine, and he and Brian Orakpo could be a nasty duo for several years.
#11 – Houston – J.J. Watt (DE, Wisconsin)
This might be a little high for Watt, but I think the Texans are intent on using this draft to help out their defense, as well they should. They are probably hoping Smith or Quinn are there when they pick, but since they are both gone already, they go with Watt. He is a hard-nosed guy who will workhis tail

The dice (shown above) are implemented as a Silverlight user control. You can include this in your own project by adding a reference to the DLL (see downloads below) and modifying the XAML to include the namespace, like this:
Then when you add the control in the body of the XAML, select the number of dice and dice colours, the container material, the width and height of the control, and other settings:
<dice:DiceControl Name="diceControl" Background="Transparent" Width="700" Height="320" Margin="20" NumDice="8" MaxDice="8" ContainerType="Large" DrawContainer="True" ContainerMaterial="Baize" DiceColor="Red" SpotColor="White" SpotSize="Medium" SoundOn="True" Click="diceControl_Click" DiceRollComplete="diceControl_DiceRollComplete" />
(It is now also possible to specify any RGB colour for the dice, as well as different colours for different dice. It is even possible to use your own images. All this is configured in the XAML - see the example project for more information.)
Then in the code for the page, call the dice control's Roll() method to roll the dice:
and also handle the DiceRollComplete event:
private void OnDiceRolled(object sender, DiceRollCompleteEventArgs e) { // e.RolledTotal contains the total score rolled // e.RolledValues is an array containing the scores rolled on the individual dice }
The user control works in Silverlight 4 and above. It uses my own home-made 3D library since there's no built-in support for 3D in Silverlight 4.
This example project is a basic skeleton project that includes the dice:
Silverlight 3D Dice Game Template Project
This example project shows the use of mouse events, e.g. clicking on dice:

Hi Edward,
First of all, Congratulations for a brilliant piece of work.
In fact i am trying to use your template in a game I am putting together.
I am quite new to all this, however with my limited knowledge I got quite far.
My first question (one of two at this time) is one that concerns your code only.
Whilst running it over and over your code works perfectly when I am running it in the browser (Chrome and Explorer) from this page.
When I am running it in Debug mode in Visual web Developer 2010 Express (on it's own - not related to my game) With 4 dice and over on occasion (but often enough) the Text Box output varies from the Dice face Values - usually 1 Die has different values. I have downloaded various copies and each time the same happens.
note : With 4 Dice - not very frequent - 5 Dice - frequent 1 Die - not frequent 2 dice - 6 Dice - 1 or 2 Dice frequently
Also, it happens frequently that 1 Die doesn't end on Z position 0 (not flat on the surface in layman's terms.), it also happens often that one Die ends outside the view field of the projector, on the right.
This is with unaltered Code.
My second question will show you my limited knowledge :)
In order to transfer the values from an array (code below) into separate variables (to make the bridge between your code and my code I have done the following :
Note : I have added 5 Text Boxes to be able to follow
Thanks for the comment Marc! Your first point is simply that I had updated the demo on this page, without updating the source code ZIP. Tut. I've now updated the source code so that it matches the demo (and gives the correct values for the dice once they have finished rolling). I've emailed you with some more info on that and your other question.
Thank you very much for your code. It's great and the new version is very nice.
I wrote a sic bo win phone app (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWdGKlq4cf0) and want to integrate with your simulator. Any suggestion can you give me to modify the simulator like the following pic.:-
Thanks again for your great work!
thanks a lot!
Hi wp7ericmswong - I've made some changes to the source code that move the 'container' specification (currently a box, but in your case more like a dome) into a separate class, and similarly the way the dice are initialised when they are 'rolled' (in your case they move upwards when rolled).
This source code is set up to (hopefully) be along the lines of your screenshot and YouTube video. There's a fair bit left to do, but the structure is hopefully now amenable to more alterations. The dice should remain within a dome shape, but the dome isn't actually rendered, so you'll have to superimpose a suitable dome image.
I'll try and post the updated 'red dice' code (corresponding to the demo above) with the new structure soon. It should be easier to integrate, as the dice stuff is in a separate project from the UI, so things don't get mixed up together in MainPage.xaml.cs.
Hi Ed, I have a really simple question. I have spent some time now trying to use your Silverlight3D library but with no luck :( What I really want is to draw a (one) cube on a empty canvas and to add a basic moving (or drag and drop) functionality. Is there a way of you having a small tutorial or example on how to do that? Thnx in advance and greetings!
Hi Zlatko, sorry for the slow reply. I will try and do some kind of tutorial to draw a cube and move/rotate it. Watch this space!
Thank you very much. I will definitely wait for the tutorial. And please, do not give your self lots of job. Keep it simple and clear ;)
Hi Zlatko, finally I have put together a quick tutorial. I tried to keep it nice and simple, but still covering all the important bits. The next tutorial will be looking at how to interact with a 3D object with the mouse. Then I will do one about putting images on the faces of the cube. Hope this helps! (Btw I have had to temporarily disable comments on my site, due to the massive amount of spam I was getting. I need to find a spam-proof comment form and stick it on here!) Check it out: Silverlight 3D Rotating Cube Tutorial
You are genius! I will try to modify the code and integrate to my program. Thank you very much for your code.
Hi, Thanks for the code it's really great. But there's a problem for me; I am working on a game on C# WinForms and I am not familiar with WPF and SilverLight. So, is there a way to integrate this code to my Forms?
@AMiNE - I just had a quick Google and found this: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/WPF_UserControls.aspx.
I haven't tried it, but it might work...
@Ed Smale: thanks for the answer but -> Page Not Found
Damn, sorry about that, missed out a double-quote in the HTML tag :( let me try again: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/WPF_UserControls.aspx
thanks :)
Loving your "dice" library. What's the chance of a C#/WPF version of this? (I know Silverlight is, in theory, based upon WPF but I understand there are also fundamental differences?)
Me again Ed! (Don't worry about fast replies btw, I'm not in any desperate rush and notice you sometimes take a while to respond to others questions). In the last few days I thought I'd have a look at 3D WPF to see if it was possible to do 3D Drawing etc (I'm new to WPF) I'm very relieved to see it is! (found this blog entry http://stuff.seans.com/2008/08/13/drawing-a-cube-in-wpf/ which was quite good). Still, there is a huge gulf between that simple tutorial and a library as comprehensive as yours (IE the physics etc). So, I'm hoping you'll seriously consider a port to WPF! (and if/when you do please bear in mind the ability to use any Die type EG D10, D20 etc. I've got the vertex point data for a D10 as I have in mind something that will use it... subject to you porting you library!)
Hi Jim,
Thanks for your comments!
There would be a bit of work moving the dice over to WPF, but hopefully not too much. There are some changes to namespaces and things that I would need to do throughout the code. None of these are that bad (I think), but I'll have to do it in such a way that I can maintain both the Silverlight and WPF versions of the project in parallel, so that changes to one are propagated to the other. Otherwise I will have to duplicate any changes manually between the versions, which would be a bit of a pain.
It's doable though, and t would be worth doing, because I guess a lot of games will be in WPF rather than Silverlight. I think what I would do is have two separate Dice solutions, one for each, then write a separate program that copies any changes in one to the other.
Another thing is that WPF has built-in 3D elements which it ought to use rather than my homebrewed 'Silverlight 3D' library, and there would be a large number of changes to switch the dice over to use them. I could probably do that some other time though.
Silverlight 5 is also on the way, and has some 3D support, so I might be able to use that instead of my 3D library. It will perform better as it is based on the XNA library. Hopefully, Silverlight 5's 3D support has a lot in common with WPF's.
For other types of die, I know this would be pretty tricky. The physics code in the Dice project is highly dependent on the dice having 6 sides. The way it makes the dice stay cube-shaped as they bounce around is by adjusting the velocities of the vertices many times each frame, so that edges, diagonals and inner diagonals remain more-or-less the same length at all times. I spent a very long time perfecting these, mainly through trial and error. For dice of a different shape, different rules would be required to make the shape remain the same. I'm sure it would be possible, but would need a lot of experimentation for each die shape to get it right.
I think porting it over to WPF would be a good thing to do anyway, so I'll try that first.
Hi Ed, it's really good job, nice library. small question. is it possible to first set dice value and then roll it? I'm making server client game, random generation happend at server side and your dice roll I need for visualisation.
Thanks David. This is a very good question. At the moment, the app doesn't know what the outcome of the roll will be, as it depends on how the dice collide as they roll. Perhaps the way to do this would be to have a library of pre-calculated rolls that the app selects from randomly - there would hvae to be enough so that you don't often see the same roll twice, and of course with more 7's rolled than 2's and 12's. I'll see what I can do.
Ed, thank you for reply.
Hi David - I've hit a bit of a brick wall with pre-specifying the outcome of the roll. My plan was to seed the random number generator to do this, by creating a lookup table mapping different random seeds to different outcomes. I got the program to choose a seed from the lookup table based on the preselected values, and this was working well in the debugger. But as soon as I put it up on a web page, I started getting outcomes that were different from my selected values. After a lot of experimentation, I found that in Visual Studio I got different results when I had the debugger attached (F5) than when I didn't (Ctrl+F5). I did some research, and read that floating point calculations can give different results on different processors (see this StackOverflow post). I assume that the F5 / Ctrl+F5 effect is along these lines as well. This all means that the seed lookup approach won't work, because it will give different results depending on the user's processor. Back to the drawing board :(
Hi Ed Thank you for the great library. I'm busy creating an XNA game in XNA and was looking for a reusable component, would it be possible to use this in XNA? I'm new to XNA, game design and silver light and would like to reuse your dice component. Thanks in advance.
Hi Michael,
Glad you like the library! In answer to your question: I am working towards a reusable dice component library. What I hope to achieve is a control/component that can be dropped into a Silverlight, WPF or XNA game, which will roll the dice on demand, and once they have finished rolling tell the application hosting the component which numbers were rolled. I'm making good progress, but there's a lot to do still before I can release it. I'll keep you updated on progress.
Hi. I just tried you 3d dice and runs really slow on wp7. So it seems like it is just for the browser. Is it just for the web browsers or why is it so slow on wp7 device.(I use samsung omnia 7)
Hi Roman, the WP7 app works fine on my device (HTC Mozart) - haven't been able to test other devices though... although are you talking about the WP7 app from the Marketplace, or just browsing the Silverlight version on this web page? The version on this page will be really slow compared to the WP7 app. The app is written in XNA and is much faster. Thanks
Hi! I must say I like your work very much! There's a lot to be learned from your Sliverlight3D project, but I'm working on a project that uses a 3D model made in Blender, so I'll surely study that when I have more time. Due to said lack of time, though, I'm glad that I can study how you implemented the physics of the dice! Thanks to you, I might just as well have time to breathe before my deadline (student project, non-commercial). So, thanks!
Thanks! Glad you like it and are finding it useful :)
Hi Ed Smale, Wonderful work on the Dice simulation. I downloaded WP7 app and is really cool. I am developing a game for WP7 using Silverlight and not XNA. I downloaded your code for Silverlight and tried to use it for WP7 app but was not able to run it because your dlls were built using Silverlight for Windows and not for WP7. Do you have WP7 Silverlight library that I can use in my game application? Thanks
Hi Renish, thanks for your comment, and sorry I haven't replied sooner - I hadn't realised that my comment form had stopped working :( For what it's worth after all this time, I did try recompiling the dice library for Silverlight on WP7, and it was incredibly slow. Only a handful of frames per second.
I tried quite a few performance tweaks to get the frame rate up, but it was still unacceptable. The WP7 app I published uses XNA on the phone rather than Silverlight, which gives much better performance. I'll be releasing source code for a demo using the WP7 XNA library soon.
If WP8 has some of Silverlight 5's 3D support, I might try updating it to use that, as hopefully its performance will be much better.
Hi ed,
i really like your dicegame and i plan to use it in my next project. i want to make a windows 8 store app for pc. Is it possible to click on a dice and replace all the dices with the same value?
Cool! What do you mean exactly? If you roll say four different numbers, one of which is a 6, then you click on the 6, and the other dice all change to 6? Why do you want to do that?
No, that is not what i mean. I am creating a game and every player starts with 8 dices. Example: the player rolls 6,6,6,5,4,2,2,1. If you click on any dice with a 6, the three dices with a 6 will be removed from the container and they will be shown on an other control. Then the player can rethrow with the remaining five dices and select an other number then the previous one and so on untill he stops his turn. ( i know how to change the number of dices).
if this is to hard, can i disable the rethrow function when you click on the container?
if i delete the follwing code, it stills rethrow the dices:
private void diceControl_MouseLeftButtonUp(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
btw. this is for a students project
Hi Maarten,
It should be possible to change the code so that the dice can be clicked, and removed from the control. I'll see what I can do.
In the meantime, I've updated the Silverlight dice control in the 'game template' download so that the dice aren't rolled automatically when the control is clicked. So removing that bit of code you mentioned will now prevent the dice rolling on click.
Here's the download link again to save you scrolling back up the page:
Silverlight 3D Dice Game Template Project
By the way, does the Silverlight dice control work in Windows 8? I haven't downloaded the preview yet so I haven't tried it. I'd be interested to know if it does.
Hi Maarten,
I've added a DieMouseClick event to the Silverlight version of the library, and knocked up a demo that removes dice in the way you described. Here's the updated demo:
Clickable 3D Dice in Silverlight
Hope this helps!
i m new to this field but wanted to do something in my life.I truly appreciate your work and use your code for my current project.
Thanks a lot

Thanks Arti, glad you like it - good luck with your project! :)
hi Ed,
really fantastic job u have done, i like it thanks a lot, i have doubt, i have used gif image for dice rolling and i could animated those images when run my app in windows phone now i was stuck on changing next gif image that mean only once playing perfectly after when i click the button then next gif image will not be playing on the animater viewer, i have installed image tools for playing gif image, pls tell me how to solve this problem
Ed, I have tried and there is just no practical way to make your Silverlight3D work in Windows 8. There are too many things not supported.
Sorry. But its GREAT on windows phone.

Hello, I found your dice roller while looking for one to incorporate into a game I am developing. What you have is almost perfect, except for the fact that I am needing 1 20 sided dice to be rolled and after it rolls, pauses and then fades out. Perhaps you can point me to how this can be done, or if you want to discuss this, please contact me at email@example.com (Hotmail). Thanks.
If anyone is willing to modify this to do 1x20 sided dice please contact me @ firstname.lastname@example.com (Hotmail). Thanks.
This is an XNA game component for 3D dice animation, featuring smooth animation and sound effects.
To create a game based on this dice component, first, declare an instance of DiceComponent in your game class:
private DiceComponent diceComponent;
Then instantiate and configure the game component like this:
this.diceComponent = new DiceComponent(this, 4) .SetNumDice(4) .SetDiceColors(Color.Red, Color.Blue) .SetSpotColors(Color.White) .SetSpotSize(DiceSpotSizeEnum.Large) .SetContainerMaterial(ContainerMaterialEnum.Wood) .SetContainerType(ContainerTypeEnum.Large) .SetCameraPosition(CameraPositionEnum.Side) .SetMakeSounds(true) .SetCameraFollow(true) .SetDrawContainer(true) .SetLeft(0) .SetTop(20) .SetWidth(1200) .SetHeight(600) .SetDiceRollComplete(this.OnDiceRollComplete);
All of the above .SetXXX() calls are optional - if a parameter is not configured, a default value will be used.
It is also possible to specify any RGB colour for the dice, as well as different colours for different dice. It is even possible to use your own images. This is configured via the SetDieFaceTextures() method - see the example project for more information.
Register the component in the game's Initialize() method:
protected override void Initialize() { this.Components.Add(this.diceComponent); base.Initialize(); }
Add the event handler OnDiceRollComplete (specified in the SetDiceRollComplete() method call above):
public void OnDiceRollComplete(object sender, DiceRollCompleteEventArgs e) { // e.RolledTotal contains the total score rolled // e.RolledValues is an array containing the scores rolled on the individual dice }
Then to roll the dice, call the dice component's Roll() method:

And one more:
With Troll Lord Games doing dual-stat stuff for Lejendary Adventure and d20, any chance we'll see more companies that you write for doing that in the future?

Mr Gygax
When You compare Dangerous Journeys, Lejendary Adventures and D&D/D20 what are the strength and weaknesses from every setting?
Which non english RPGs do you know and how did you value them and why?

If you could have Greyhawk back under your control and therefore could, and did, publish a decisive GH book, what would you change to bring it back to your "vision"?

I would sooo love to see Gary answer this one diplomatically. What you ask is tantamount to "Would you please stop selling your system in the products you write?"Originally posted by JoeGKushner
Can we see a cease and desist of Lejendary Journeys material in the D20 books?
BTW, it's Lejendary Adventures.

Short-term Missions: Who Decides What the Needs Are?
- Tuesday, May 09, 2006
Is it wrong to build buildings when we go? Some think so, but I don't. I think there's a place for it, but we must temper such projects with our understanding about the true needs and what we truly have to offer. We do have something to offer, but let's discover what that is through dialogue with the majority world church. A group from my church just returned from a couple weeks in Rwanda. Within their first hour in Rwanda, the local team said, "Ninety percent of your job is done. You're here. Your presence speaks volumes." One of the team members told me she thought, "Well, I don't think so. That's gracious of you, but we're here to work hard." The longer she was there, however, the more she began to see that the tasks they came to do were not what was needed most. The presence and chance for relationship together seemed to be the most pressing need for the Rwandan church beyond any menial tasks that were planned. Do the menial tasks; they teach us about serving, and we get to serve alongside our brothers and sisters. Be sure to remember, however, that painting a room for our brothers and sisters or putting in windows isn't really what it's about. It's about meeting a deeper need that's in us and in them.

A little about me...
I spent many years as a professional actor. No, you won't see me in the movies, unless you look real quick! But I enjoyed the work, and I have my memories. I mainly acted in the theatre, but also directed occasionally, taught acting, and did lots of commercial work. I lived in Atlanta, Tampa, Nashville, south Florida, and New York. As the years passed I needed something to be sure to keep the wolves away, so I trained for accounting. Now I'm home to stay and happy to have a stable life. I'm a caring, patient, and kindly individual with a sense of purpose and passion about life. I am athletic and love the outdoors. I'm honest, fair, trustworthy, and a man of my word. At this stage of the game, I believe I have gained some self-knowledge, intelligence, and wisdom. I believe in live and let live, and making our time on this earth as happy as possible.
About the one I'm looking for...
I'm interested in finding a reasonably fit woman who is level-headed and kind. Intelligent, inquisitive, and expressive, but not necessarily outgoing, or vivacious. Steady and calm are good. And a sense of humor always helps. One who is accepting and not critical or judgmental. Energetic and active. Kids around are fine, and I get along well with all of them. The same with pets. I'm always ready to learn and enjoy new things, so your interests will be my interests.
I'd just like to add...
I am young. I like sports cars, skiing, mountains, and the beach. I like to take lots of day trips and joyride the back roads in my little Miata. I like many kinds of music, but especially jazz or jazzy. I don't drink, but I don't mind at all if you do moderately. I can dress for any occasion including Halloween...and usually do. I enjoy sports but don't spend a lot of time watching them. I have bicycles, like to ride a horse, have a kayak, swim, play tennis occasionally, work out and jog regularly. I ski every week that I can in the winter. I like to stay reasonably fit. Lastly, I think it is important to stay active, but I don't do all these active things all the time, and I relish quiet relaxation and peacefulness.
