In an attempt to continue trouble shooting these errors, I took the text
from one and converted it from hex to ascii.  Here is the original error:
Required field 'timestamp' was not found in serialized data! Struct:
Column(name:61 75 74 68 6F 72 5F 69 63 6F 6E, value:68 74 74 70 3A 2F 2F 61
31 2E 74 77 69 6D 67 2E 63 6F 6D 2F 70 72 6F 66 69 6C 65 5F 69 6D 61 67 65
73 2F 37 37 35 35 30 33 34 32 2F 61 6E 64 72 65 77 5F 72 6F 6E 64 65 80 01
00 01 00 00 00 0C 62 61 74 63 68, timestamp:0)

Here is the converted information from the "value" of the column:

This looks like two batch mutate commands are somehow overlapping each
other.  I can't see how this could happen in my code.  Again, I am using the
PHP Thrift library.  Can anyone help me identify the problem?
