Hello,

We haven't had any lightning talks in a while.  Please consider
volunteering for one for Monday's class.  Here are a few suggested
topics:

- present how a DNS poisoning attack works
- present how a DNS amplification DDoS attack works
- present how Turkey might have gone about blocking Twitter (as of this
  afternoon)
- present details you find about how Syria dropped off the internet
  for almost 7 hours today
- a demonstration of sniffing the contents of somebody else's connection
  using tcpdump
- an explanation of ICMP Path MTU Discovery
- a description of how rsync works internally (ie, how does it figure
  out what files to copy)

...

I'd like to have one or two volunteers on Monday as well as in future
classes.  Consider this part of class participation.

Thanks in advance!
-Jan
