DNS-OARC Spring Workshop May 10-11, 2014 in Warsaw
The 2014 Spring Workshop of the DNS Operations Analysis and Research Center (DNS-OARC) will take place May 10-11, 2014, in Warsaw, Poland, on the weekend right before RIPE68 in Warsaw.
The DNS-OARC events are great workshops that bring together many of the leading people within the DNS / DNSSEC community. For some background you can see the agenda and contributions from the Fall 2013 workshop in Phoenix, as well as the videos of the sessions.
The Call For Presentations for the 2014 Spring Workshop is now out with a submission deadline of March 1, 2014. If you are going to be going to RIPE68, why not go the weekend earlier and participate in the DNS-OARC Spring Workshop?

Great Keene Sentinel Article About Bringing Curling To The Region
Many thanks to the Keene Sentinel for their great article on the front page of the Sports section in today’s Sunday paper. It nicely promotes the open house happening today down at Petersham Curling Club and also mentions the work we are looking to do to bring a dedicated curling facility to Keene and the Monadnock region. The online article strangely didn’t include any photos, but the print version has a few great photos.
If you are visiting this site from the Keene Sentinel’s site or because of the article, THANK YOU! If you would like to see curling happen in the Keene region, there are three things you can do to help:
1. Visit the Petersham CC Open Houses – The closest place to curl right now is the Petersham Curling Club and to make curling a reality in Keene we need to build a group of people who know how to curl and want to make it happen here. So please do check out the PCC open houses today from 12-5 and on this Thursday, Feb 20 from 6-9. If you’d like to do more, please join the PCC and also check out their upcoming “Learn to Curl” sessions.
2. Fill out our interest form – Even if you’ve never tried it and just think it looks interesting, we need to get a sense of how many people are interested in the sport of curling. We’re also definitely looking for people who would be interested in helping us build the organization in many different ways.
3. Spread the word! – Please help us spread the word that there are people who want to bring the sport of curling to Keene and the greater Monadnock region. Tell people about the website… follow us on social media (and share/retweet our info)… invite us to come talk to your group (we can explain curling! 
)… just let people know we’re here!
Thank you for visiting – and let’s bring curling to the region!

Reminder – Curling Open House TODAY at Petersham Curling Club
Want to try out curling TODAY? As we mentioned earlier, the Petersham Curling Club is having an Open House free to anyone TODAY, Sunday, February 16, from 12-5pm.
The Petersham Curling Club (PCC) is about 45 minutes south of Keene. Just head south on Route 32 (going down past the Keene airport) and stay on Route 32 all the way down through Richmond, NH, Royalston, MA, Athol and on into Petersham. The club is located right off of Route 32. More information can be found on the PCC directions page. In good weather it takes about 45 minutes to get from Keene down to the Petersham club.
At today’s Open House, you’ll learn how to deliver a stone, the role of sweeping and more. This will be a great opportunity to get on the ice and experience the sport yourself. All you need to bring is a pair of clean, rubber-soled shoes and your enthusiasm!
The Petersham Curling Club is a great place to curl and is where several of us involved with starting up the Monadnock Curling Club all curl. We strongly encourage you to head down to Petersham, MA, and check out the Open Houses. And if the curling bug bites you as it has us, please do join the PCC and start playing the awesome sport of curling!
This is where you can get started today and enjoy curling!
And then… please let us know you are interested in seeing curling come to Keene!
