what is from with this picture?

I just did a check for thought.org and even it doesn't exist.

Is your DNS host down? Did your domain expire? (Just checked the WHOIS and no, it's up through 2015)

This may or may not be anything but neither your primary nor secondary Name Servers respond to pings:
> Ryan-Colemans-MacBook-Pro:~ ryanjcole$ ping ns1.silvertree.org
> PING ns1.silvertree.org (173.11.101.153): 56 data bytes
> Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
> Request timeout for icmp_seq 1

You can't have a sending domain as thought.org if the @ record for thought.org doesn't exist, IIRC.

Look to your DNS for the solution, IMNSHO.
