UltraDNS Outage “Multiple Site Down”

This morning, our Dynect Platform monitoring system noticed a problem, a big one. From our global perspective, it appears that many online services, including amazon.com (the store, AWS, and S3), salesforce.com, advertisting.com, and petco.com, had some serious DNS troubles. As many of our readers know, DNS is the glue that binds domain names, like dynect.com to their respective server’s IP addresses (204.13.248.122). Without DNS, nothing works; no web, e-mail, voip, IM, file sharing, etc. The Dynect Team quickly began to analyze the situation by checking the resolution chains for these popular web sites.

Arnold Stang, actor known for nerdy roles, dies

Arnold Stang, an actor who appeared alongside Milton Berle and Frank Sinatra and was known for his nerdy looks and distinctive nasal voice, has died. He was 91. Stang died Sunday of pneumonia at Newton-Wellesley Hospital in Massachusetts, said JoAnne Stang, his wife of 60 years. She attributed her husband's career longevity to his willingness to tackle any professional challenge. "He was really unique, because he could perform in any role, comedy or drama, he just loved it all," she said Tuesday. "He always thought of himself just as an actor, not any particular kind of actor, but just an actor who would play whatever he was asked to play." Despite...

One more time...Stocks higher...Nerdy actor dies

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Democrats need to put together 60 votes one more time for health care reform. The vote to shut off debate is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon -- marking the start of a 30-hour countdown to a Christmas Eve vote on the bill itself. By then, it'll just need a simple majority to pass. The measure cleared its second 60-vote test this morning. NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks are up following the start of trading as investors shake off a report showing third-quarter economic growth was not as strong as previously forecast. The Commerce Department's new reading on gross domestic product showed a growth rate of 2.2 percent, smaller than...

Carrie Underwood Shows Off Engagement Ring

In case there were doubts about Mike Fisher and Carrie Underwood getting engaged, this photo taken at last night's NHL game in Ottawa should clear 'em up. While the Senators forward tangled with the Boston Bruins on the ice, the country star showed off her ice in the stands... and it appears Mike did a heck of a job. That thing is practically the size of a hockey puck! Well, not really, but what we're trying to say is that it's big. And we can't think up many good hockey puns. Asked about the engagement again last night, Fisher wouldn't give away any details, saying only that it's true, and that "we're both excited and very happy." The Sens...

SNL Brittany Murphy Spoof Scrubbed From Web, After Death

After Brittany Murphy’s death on Sunday, a Saturday Night Live parody portraying the Clueless actress, as well clueless, has disappeared from the Internet. The “Weekend Update” skit aired on Dec. 5, 2009 and it has been quietly removed from sites, like Hulu.com and YouTube, since the 32-year-old actress was pronounced dead of cardiac arrest at a Los Angeles hospital.

MTV 'Jersey Shore': Snooki punched by Queens teacher, reports say Video

Snooki, Snooki. MTV's "Jersey Shore" castmate transformed from sloppy, slutty drunk to acrobatic party girl to tragic figure in the course of one episode. MTV indeed faded to black just before Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi took a fist to the face from a drunken Benny, and it was no laughing matter. We wish MTV hadn't promoted the clip in the first place, turning the punch into national punchline. MTV saved the punch for the last couple of minutes; we'll presumably see the fallout next week. When we last saw lovebirds Sammi Giancola and Ronnie, their epic romance was in the crapper because Sammi gave her number to a guy friend after she saw Ronnie dancing with another girl. Ronnie stormed off, followed by Jenni "JWoww" Farley, and when Sammi heard about that, she followed them home. She finds Ronnie...

After an argument over a drink, Snookie is punched in the face by a man at a local club. The man, a school teacher from New York, was later arrested. The incident occurs :18 into this preview clip for next week's episode....

'American Idol:' Adam Lambert will be fine on 'So You Think You Can Dance

Adam Lambert shouldn't have any problem giving a performance on "So You Think You Can Dance," at least if we're to believe the words of head judge / executive producer Nigel Lythgoe. In a discussion with The Press Association, Lythgoe (who is also an executive producer on "American Idol") believes that Adam's "SYTYCD" performance will go off as rehearsed without a hitch. The only reason so much drama surrounds Adam at this point is because of some recent controversy surrounding an unrehearsed, same-sex kiss at the American Music Awards. ABC has since canceled many appearances by the singer on their network, while other stations have shown a willingness to continue bringing the singer on board. After lighting up "SYTYCD," Adam will be heading to "The Jay Leno Show" next week. Check back soon,...

Adam Lambert on So You Think You Can Dance – Video

Adam Lambert sings “Whataya Want From Me” on the So You Think You Can Dance finale. OK, what is that on his shoulder? I preferred the spikes from the AMAs — this looks like dried tar or something. (”I think I’m going to be edgy — let’s but this black thing on my right shoulder.”) The good news is that Adam’s third week sales have stabilized! “For Your Entertainment” sold 46,000 copies, just down 9% from the previous week. If the numbers don’t drop significantly next week, then I think Adam’s career is not in trouble after all — 40,000+ every week is not bad! Keep our fingers crossed! Watch the video here: ...

So You Think You Can Dance Finale: Injuries, Adam Lambert & a New Winner!

The most painful part of tonight's So You Think You Can Dance finale was not watching Adam Lambert turn in a creatively neutered performance of "Whattya Want From Me." No, it was seeing krumper Russell Ferguson limp onto the stage for the first cut of the night with help from fellow top-sixer Ryan Di Lillo. "I messed my leg up," Russell told a startled Cat Deeley, who needed the immediate delivery of a new microphone after the sound had pooped out moments before. The fan fave was unable to dance any further after perhaps busting his knee during the hip-hop number he stomped out with Legacy Perez and Kevin Hunte. So the audience had to make...

"Jersey Shore" Punch Clip Pulled by MTV

A "Jersey Shore" knockout scene in which one could see Snooki(e) punched in the face has been dropped. The Snooki punch video would have been part of an upcoming episode, but due to its disturbing nature, MTV has decided it would best be left out of the show.

BCS bowl schedule 2010 set after bowls selection

 The 2010 BCS selection show finalized the 2010 BCS bowl schedule. This particular BCS bowl schedule isn't as impressive as it could have been, because again the BCS was afraid to pit Boise State or TCU up against any of the other top schools. Instead fans are left with a Boise State vs. TCU game which is good on paper, but just becomes another slap in the face to conferences that aren't part of the BCS automatic qualifier process. It also gives the bigger schools yet another excuse not to play them, because they didn't have a hand in BCS selection Sunday. The BCS National Championship Game will have Texas vs. Alabama, and will take place...

Sons of Anarchy Season 2 Episode 9

 All fingers point to Luann’s rival producer in the porn production business. Which would mean that Jax has added to his father-in-law’s blood toll count on “innocent” women killed both indirectly and directly by SAMCRO. But could the killer have been Ethan Zobelle? I find it hard to believe that this secondary player has made such a bold move against SAMCRO alone. However, this would be the epitome of “the father’s sins passing onto the son.” On the business side, this presses SAMCRO up against the wall when it comes to income. After the gun business fell apart, Jax thought that he could realize his birth father’s dream of legit money...

Music Goes to the Movies

 Any star is an unknowable quantity, one from whom we expect distance but crave intimacy -- it’s the paradox that drives the star-making industry. With our pop stars, we literally can’t get enough: we flock to flawed films, hungry for a glimpse of the “true” person behind the persona. We’ve watched Bette Midler channel Janis Joplin (sort of) in “The Rose,” Elvis remain himself even when he should be acting (just about any film), U2’s self-aggrandizing at the dawn of its career in “Rattle and Hum,” Madonna playing herself in both fiction (“Desperately Seeking Susan”) and documentary (“Truth or Dare”).

Jay Bias Death

Jay Bias Death, In a way, these 30 “by 30″ movies are almost idiot-proof. The stories that have been elected so far has been so intrinsically interesting that almost no matter how filmmakers have chosen to tell. I love Mike Tollin assume the USFL, but then many of you said you were just happy to see all that footage. Kirk Fraser “without prejudice” feels like another example of that phenomenon. Fraser comes to things at least two hours of film into a bag of 50 minutes, the end result is a film that jumps between the sub too many stories, and that has to be guided by talking heads too … … And yet, I care, because it is obvious how much Fraser,...
