It sounds like they ran out of money for a while and stopped the grant: http://www.economist.com.na/general-news/699-big-resources-d...

They then got some additional funds and started it up again: http://allafrica.com/stories/201407170971.html

This looks like a cool service, is there pricing information somewhere? I couldn't find any on the website.

Google silently correcting search terms. Anyone else having this problem?

from the self-post dept.

I've noticed recently that it's become hard to do google searches that aren't "mainstream". For example, if I search for "riak configure listen interface", "riak" is automatically corrected to "risk" without showing the usual "showing results for..." text.Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/tuNhF.pngAnyone have a good way around this that doesn't involve adding a + to every search term?
