fixed time manually;
sudo ntpdate time.nist.gov

Seems ntpd was not running;
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ntpd status
ntpd dead but pid file exists
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ntpd start
Starting ntpd:                                             [  OK  ]
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ntpd status
ntpd (pid  61265) is running...

$ dig @localhost google.com +short
now resolves.

Perhaps a check for ntpd should be made ... but in terms of this issue, this is fixed.

yeah, I started ntpd many times but it kept on crashing.
