Sorry everyone…I had to take the syndicated news block off the site for a while. It feels like they are using a blocking request to get news: if the other site is hanging…our site will hang right around with it until it gets an error or the news feed. As you guessed it…it was hanging. If I fix it, I’ll send the patch over to the maintainer, but for now…you can see the affiliate news by clicking the headlines link on the menu.
