From a Humboldt County Sheriff's Office press release:
Today, at approximately 12:30 a.m. a Humboldt County Sheriff's office Deputy on patrol in McKinleyville stopped a black 1996 Honda sedan for a traffic violation on Edeline Avenue, McKinleyville. After the Honda stopped the deputy saw a male crouched in the back seat, attempting to conceal himself from the deputy's view. The deputy spoke with the driver of the vehicle who was identified as Sharon Patrice Ericson, 44, from McKinleyville. A records check revealed Ericson was driving with a suspended driver's license. Ericson was arrested by the deputy for driving on a suspended license. The deputy contacted the male in the back seat of the Honda and asked him if he had any identification. The man told the deputy he did not have any identification, despite holding a wallet in his hand.
The deputy searched the Honda and located approximately two grams of suspected methamphetamine in between the front seats, several syringes and pipes used to smoke methamphetamine.
After transporting Ericson and Slade to the Humboldt County Correctional Facility, the deputy and a Correctional Officer searched Ericson's purse that she had been carrying. Inside her purse, they located approximately 26 grams of heroin and a small digital scale. Erickson was booked for transportation and possession for sale of a controlled substance and driving on a suspended license. Her bail was set at $50,000.00.
Slade was booked on the outstanding arrest warrants, and also for the previous cases involving violating a court order, assault with a deadly weapon, felony vandalism, domestic violence and kidnapping. His total bail was set at $200,000.
Anyone with information for the Sheriff's Office regarding this case or related criminal activity is encouraged to call the Sheriff's Office at 707-445-7251 or the Sheriff's Office Crime Tip line at 707-268-2539.

The censer or incense burner in neo-pagan witchcraft is used for burning incense, herbs, wood and other substances, to cleanse and purify the air before rituals. Censing, which represents the element of air, exorcises and keeps unwanted energies away from the magic site; offers sweet air to the God and Goddess; raises vibrational rates and summons energies; relaxes the senses; and contains and concentrates power. The act of burning incense or other substances is also known as carrying our wishes up to the God and Goddess.

November 27, 2014
TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW-TV) -- Topeka emergency officials saved the day for two wheelchair-bound residents caught in a house fire Friday morning.
The Topeka Police Department was first on the scene at 1:15 a.m., helping the wheelchair-bound residents of the home get out safely. Fire crews then arrived to the home at 2041 SE California Ave.
When they arrived, fire officials saw heavy smoke and fire coming from the home. A Topeka Fire Department Investigations Unit determined the fire started within the centrally located northern bathroom, and extended into the attic. The cause is undetermined, but officials say more than likely accidental. No foul play is suggested.
Captain Dan Macke said the cold weather was another challenge crews had to overcome because water would freeze on the ground and make conditions slippery for firefighters.
The fire did an estimated $52,000 damage: $35,000 to the home and $17,000 in content damage/loss.
The Topeka Police Department, American Medical Response, Capitol Area Chapter of the American Red Cross, and the Salvation Army assisted with the fire and helping the residents.

TEAMS: Notre Dame Fighting Irish
The Sun published one of Notre Dame's Irish Guard Members going commando, and it wasn't pretty. It was a pretty bad time for a gust of wind though. I guess this makes Kate Upton's tweet even funnier trashing Notre Dame, because in my opinion Mark Sanchez wears a skirt every week out on the football field.

1. I had students start their drawing with the top edge of the roof, and then the curvy "drippy" edge below. The sides of the the house were added, and then the bottom. Rounded windows and doors were recommended for that old fashioned look. Gumdrops, candy canes and lollipops could be added.
2. The pencil drawing was traced with a black marker and filled in with lots of color. I found that Sharpie markers work best for details, and chisel tip Mr. Sketch markers are great for the background.

Apple Pulls Secret App in Brazil After Judge's Request
Legally, any apps sold through a country-specific App Store are under the jurisdiction of that country's government.
Legally, any apps sold through a country-specific App Store are under the jurisdiction of that country's government.
A Brazilian judge wants to ban Secret from Apple's App Store and Google Play, arguing it violates the constitution and promotes anonymous bullying.
At the end of a long Saturday night out, the only things you really want are a slice of pizza and and someone to drive you home.
A new iOS app called Awkward brings the world of app-based secrets and confessions into the realm of video.
Australians love their wine but they have a few dirty little secrets to share.
Now you can see what your Facebook friends are hiding.
As the old rhyme goes, "Secrets, secrets are no fun, unless you share with everyone." Check out 20 interesting secrets from anonymous posting app Secret.
Anonymous social media app Secret has announced a new feature to encourage your coworkers to spill their guts.
Secret, the app for anonymously sharing secrets, launched its long-awaited Android app and rolled out new features to both iOS and Android users.
There will always be a few secrets that you just can't tell mom.
We've been trolled! Rumors that Apple is preparing to release biometric EarPod sensors were just a hoax.
According to a post on the app Secret, the next Apple EarPods will measure heart rate and talk to the mythical iWatch.
Secret, the anonymous secret-sharing app, will soon be expanding to the UK, Ireland, New Zealand and Australia. The company is also planning an Android app.
On anonymous social media app Secret, you can be anyone you want -- even yourself. My new acquaintance, whom we'll call Steve, has just organized one of the first Secret IRL meetups, which began with this simple Secret: "Starting yet another expensive, consumption habit: artisanal whiskey. San Francisco, you can keep your $4 toast." The Secret appeared in my feed because Steve is a "friend of friend," meaning a contact saved in my phone book is also saved in his.
The impulse to share secrets with strangers predates smartphones. We've been scrawling our hidden hearts onto bathroom walls for so long there's even a fancy word for it: latrinalia. Today's public secret-telling takes place on social networks instead of bathroom stalls, but it's essentially the same content: a mix of earnest soul-sharing, quips, disses, and lies. Apps like Whisper and Secret have exploded in popularity in recent months.
If you build it, brands will come -- for better or worse. The latest example of that is Secret, a new app for anonymous sharing, similar to Whisper. Over the weekend, someone shared a post on the service, which claimed to be the first from a Fortune 500 company. See also: Anonymous Blogging App Secret Produces Its First Viral Hoax We've since confirmed that the post comes from Gap, which has previously been among the first to advertise on other social networks like Instagram and Vine.
Information not meant for public consumption is powerful, which is why the English language evolved a word for such content: secret. The app of the same name -- Secret -- put that on display earlier on Thursday after a post to the anonymous social network asserted that popular note-taking application Evernote was about to be acquired.
Political journalists find refuge in a Phish listserv appropriately dubbed "Journophish."
A student at Oxford University has developed a method to "secretly encrypt" messages through Facebook photos.
Apparently, advertising professionals have longed for a safe space where they can anonymously air their grievances. And now there is one. Browse through The Creative Confessional, and it will make sense why the average creative feels comfortable in this online confession booth, as it helps them blow off steam from the day-to-day struggles and common client gripes in the industry. Some admissions are more frank and sordid than others, while some are filled with disdain for the ad world.
You might have heard Google is in the process of changing the design of its controversial black Google Bar across the top of most of its products. The company announced in a blog post on Wednesday that its infamous Bar would be replaced with a pop-up that appears when you move your cursor over the Google logo.

Quick menu review for a dinner TOMORROW. Needs to impress with what I have.
- cayjohan Sep 9, 2013 06:41 PM
I've not usually been in need of menu advice, but I have a last minute business dinner tomorrow that needs to go well. I've on-the-fly come up with what I could, and might need to have some opinions on what I'm missing-not-thinking-of-being-obtuse about. All allergies and food-averseness has been addressed, so we're okay on that. My husband will be arriving from work with the two guests. I need to be as ready as I am able to be to start serving.
Here's the menu as it stands:
Apps: olives, hard salami, and glasses of the gazpacho we've got in the refrigerator.
Main, served family-style (I am told this is a casual group, so I'm running with it.):
14/16-ish oz. NY strips on the grill (I love that my neighborhood butcher counter will cut thick steaks for me if I ask at the last minute; both guests are steak-centric, so this helps)
Patatas bravas, or in that realm - I've got a ton of new potatoes, a lot of garlic and my sweetheart-forevermore: pimentón. Something crispy sounds good.
Some sort of chopped salad that uses up the pile of zucchini, tomatoes, onions and herbs that the garden is belching forth. I'm thinking on a bed of spinach, with the aforementioned diced and dressed. I always go for a vinaigrette, but can entertain the notion of other mayonnaise-type dressings
Dessert: A cheese plate with local apples and local honey. The cheeses in house right now are a 3-year Gouda, chèvre, and a two year Tillamook white cheddar.
So: what am I missing here? What missteps might I be making that I am not seeing? Any add-on that is readily gotten with zero-ish time? These are garden writers, and my cooking/prep time is going to be truncated with my yard-readying time for a dinner outside in the garden. Baking is not on the table for dessert, as I am still relearning baking due to gluten-free issues.
Any tweaks you CH folks can give me to make this work on the fly? I usually have much more time to come up with biz dinners, and I'm feeling a little blindsided by this one. Any suggestions welcome, as this is one I don't want to shrug off.
Thanks all,
re: Violatp
re: cayjohan
I made this white peach sangria recently and it was lovely, taste wise and eyeball-wise :)
re: c oliver
Sounds so refreshing for what we need...thank you for the inspiring link!
re: c oliver
Yep. BIG meat eaters at the table tomorrow. Hub wanted porterhouse, but I prefer serving boneless steaks. Well, to strangers with whom I have not gnawed bones With F&F who want to gnaw, I'm okay. Both guests have housekeeping suites and can take leftovers back with them, but I don't think that would be a problem with one, from what I hear. Btw, the strips are amazing looking. Please dawgs, I do them justice!
re: cayjohan
re: c oliver
We've already got the beautiful strips (our butcher does a wonderful job with them, so we roll with it). But oh, c oliver, how we love our butcher's boneless ribeyes. I'm still struggling with the serving, and I may lose this battle: my hub knows the guests' preferences and I do not as much. Sliced sounds good for me, and how I like to serve strip, but whole seems like what I will have to serve. But...a whole strip would not be bad, right?
A cheese plate is not a dessert that appeals to a majority of Americans. I would add some of the cheese to the appetizer plate (and crackers or nuts if you have them) and rethink dessert. I suggest baked apples or using the apples along with honey, dried fruit, and wine to make a compote. The compote works just as well in the microwave as the oven.
If you make baked apples, you can dress them up a bit by making a caramel sauce to drizzle over, or melt vanilla ice cream as an instant creme anglaise.

Ya know, I've kinda surprised myself a couple of times by how well a cheese dessert as gone over with folks I might not have thought would love it. Is that a confusing sentence?!?
re: c oliver
I love cheese for dessert because I'm not a big fan of sweets particularly with some sliced meats if you need something for variety although I have noticed some don't really associated savory with post-dinner eats.
re: fldhkybnva
re: c oliver
Maybe a walnut or an almond...
I remember way back when, the first time I ate, all at once, Gouda, dried apricot, and walnut.
It was a revelation!
re: Violatp
Or a walnut or an almond. Maybe especially a Marcona almond! I never knew you could eat honeycomb til I was presented with it.
re: fldhkybnva
I never knew I loved a cheese and fruit plate until I had one. I think it's a great idea!
re: greygarious
re: Violatp
Ah, yes, that presentation for the steak totally works.
re: greygarious
Good idea on the compote! I'm heating up the kitchen anyway, and the warm apples/cold apples/cheese would be very nice. Thank you for jogging my thinking! Our guests are cheese lovers by all account, and I am hoping our mix will be good, but I LOVE the melted ice cream idea for the compote. Easily accomplished during timeline; thank you!
Thank you all so much for the input!
re: greygarious
re: greygarious
This sounds like a fairly sophisticated group that would enjoy the cheese plate. In my opinion baked apples are a very autumnal dessert It depends where you are, here it was 98 degrees today, its still summer everywhere no matter what the temperature.
re: greygarious
i dislike serving or eating cheese as a starter -- it dulls the palate and is very easy for people to overeat, leaving less room for the main event.
while sliced steak looks nicer, it makes the meat cool off far too quickly and i don't like that. a compound butter with garden thyme would be nice over top though.
baked apples or any kind of compote seem terribly autumnal to me. don't know where the op resides, but it's over 90 degrees in my hood today. it does sound like the op has stonefruits (at least pluots) available, so i'd offer those sliced with some cream to those who want sweets and still do a cheese platter for those who don't. (like me.)
re: hotoynoodle
Agree re the cheese. You're the one who pointed this out to me a while back and I've been pleased with that. I now do a little tapenade, maybe some nuts, etc. Just enough to tide people over while having a cocktail and finishing up prep for dinner.
re: greygarious
I've been amazed with how well cheese plates have gone over as dessert when I've served them. Even with my more "I must not eat any differently than I was raised" friends.
"Any add-on that is readily gotten with zero-ish time?" Especially since these are garden writers...
Do you have fresh mint leaves? I bet you do. They make a cheese plate look so pretty. And especially if you're drizzling with honey, the leaves are very handy for mopping and enjoying. :) I went and picked extra mint one night just for this purpose and we kept adding honey to the cheese board. It was great! I like dried apricots as dippers, too, but that's just me. Have fun!
re: kattyeyes
kattyeyes, you make me think, um, fresh thyme, maybe. I, in a fit of madness over mint-overlords, unearthed the 20 feet of mint I had ten plus years ago since...it was Just Too Much. Poor me. <grin> But I've got thyme aplenty, and that sounds spot-on with honey (buckwheat).
re: cayjohan
I'm much more the thyme, tarragon, etc. than mint. Got all the mint out of the 30'+ planter but will never get it out of the grass so just mow it down. Use it occasionally in a G&T. Not much else.
Here's an idea for the salad... http://www.recipething.com/recipes/sh.... I think I would skip the cheese and add onions and an herb that compliments the steak and potatoes. I love zucchini done this way!
re: firecooked
I think I am indeed going to go for the ribbons, is for no other reason than the aesthetic. I tend as a matter of course for a standard chopped salad for expediency, but I think this is a good idea. Helps me with prep tomorrow. Xxxooo for that thought.
for dessert, when we were kids and fruit was in season, my mom would serve us chilled stone fruit, sliced up and with some fresh heavy cream poured over the top. it looks really pretty if you serve it in glass goblets/bowls, and ducks the gluten issue. my favorite was peaches or nectarines, but i guess it would work well with berries, plums, pluots, etc as well (or any combination!)
another fun one is frosted grapes. take fresh grapes, rinse them, divide into serving-sized bunches, making sure they are still a bit wet. sprinkle with confectioner's sugar; freeze em. sprinkle with a bit more sugar right before serving. it's effortless, refreshing, and looks mighty fancy!
Okay, here goes with the follow-up:
I'll first say that we haven't had rain in a month. Yesterday? When I was organizing a garden dinner on the fly? And doing my best to set an enchantingly beautiful table? Yep. Rain. Thankfully (for my immediate purposes only; I'm pretty sick of drought) the rain lasted only long enough to frazzle my easily-frazzled self and Plan B of indoor dining did not have to be deployed. Plan A had some hitches, but went forward.
Apps went great while hub fired up the grill. The olives were just olives; nothing special. The salami was delicious, especially since I had the presence of mind to let it come up to temp ahead of time. I'm not a big issuer-of-plugs for product as a rule, but this was the Salamini from Northern Waters Smokehaus in Duluth, Minnesota. It is just plain excellent and I stock up every time I go near. They ship; here's a link: http://www.northernwaterssmokehaus.co... . With the gazpacho, it was a nice set of flavors. The sangria didn't quite go as envisioned, as the hub had taken all the pluots I thought I had for work snacks. So we had a cobbled-together sangria-ish beverage of dry Riesling, apples and some cava. Very well received.
The universe was kind to me in the form of a neighbor who dropped some fresh corn on my doorstep, so the salad became corn+orange bell pepper+red onion+cubed zukes. Dressed in a thyme vinaigrette. I couldn't bring myself to dice the gorgeous tomatoes (Green Zebras and "Aunt Ruby" along with some reds) we have right now, so they were sliced alongside. All over a bed of spinach on a big platter.
Potatoes? So much variation in size, so I didn't want to risk roasting and getting some shriveled littles, so I slow-poached the whole lot in olive oil with a copious amount of garlic, then finished in the oven until crisp, dusted with pimentón and s&p, and boom: they were great. (If I were made of money, I think I might just slow-poach every freaking thing in olive oil, really) The infused garlic flavor really worked.
While rummaging around in the refrigerator, I found some cucumbers. Why not make a tzatziki? I did, and with the potatoes it really worked. One guest practically drooled over that sauce. It was a good call.
And the steak? My Hub is mostly-hit-sometimes-miss with grilling, but he knocked these out of the park. If everything else on the table had been a miserable fail, the steaks would have carried the day. I sent my butcher a nice note this morning to thank him (have I mentioned how much I love my butcher counter?). You'd have thought we invented meat, by the reaction. Perfect crust, perfect medium-rare. High-five to my Hub. The gentleman guest polished off the pound of strip, and quite excitedly accepted my offer of the half-plus that I could not finish as a take-away.
Dessert was a cheese plate along with dishes of apple compote. I scrapped the honey drizzling, as after a pretty bug-free summer, the gnats were out in force, and, well, you do what you can. So: the Tillamook and the TJ's 1000 Day Gouda it was. I never made it to get ice cream, so I whisked some sugar and vanilla into some Greek yogurt to top the compote. That simple sauce was another surprise hit of the evening. I was just a little embarrassed to say what it was, because of the simplicity.
Both guests were enthusiastic about having a door-prize of leftovers to take along.
The best in all of this? I often host strangers-to-me (I jokingly call my heavy-hosting duties Corporate Wife Syndrome in *mostly* good humor), and you never know what you're going to get. These were two of the Best Guests Ever. Truly gracious and convivial. Around midnight ("school night," after all), the Hub drove them back to their hotel. Everyone had a great time, including yours truly, who can get a little pissy about these things at times. May you all have the surprise of wonderful strangers which whom you like to linger on a Tuesday night.
I earned major "points" on this one! And since I have no knowledge of what keyboard strokes delineate such a thing, you helpful folks will just have to imagine <<Cay strewing those points out to you-all>>. I sometimes crash ideating menus, and your help was greatly appreciated. I learned during the course of the evening that one of our tablemates had spent many years in the restaurant biz. So glad I didn't know that going in, frazzled-self n'all. The enthusiastic response to the meal was then doubly appreciated (I try to tamp down my ego, but we all know how that goes), and I'd be remiss if I didn't share that appreciation with you who helped me sort it all out.
re: cayjohan
hooray for you!
re: cayjohan
Fantastic! Congrats to you!
re: cayjohan
I've not oil poached potatoes - how does that all work?
We pulled a bunch of fingerlings from our garden this year and I can never figure out the correct technique for getting them roasted crispy. I have a bunch that are slightly larger than pea sized that I think would be fun to get crispy but can never make it work!
re: Sushiqueen36
The batch of potatoes I had ranged in size from about a nickel's diameter to golf ball-ish or slightly larger. I cut them; the little ones in half, the larger ones into roughly even chunks. They went into a pan with smashed garlic cloves and olive oil to cover. I start these from cold and slowly bring to a simmer. Once tender, drain on paper. Spread out evenly on a baking sheet and pop them into the oven - I went for about 400 degrees - and bake until crisped up. I tossed them with pimentón and salt and pepper. That's it - dead easy. I, too, always had trouble straight roasting the little spuds, especially with different sizes - I always ended up with too many leathery ones by the time the others had cooked through, and they never got crispy. I had really good results with the poach-then-bake, as they're not really in the oven long enough to dry out. The garlic flavor is a nice bonus. The only drawback is the quantity of oil, which can seem a little profligate!
re: cayjohan
So I wonder if I could poach in the morning and then let set until dinner... trying tonight. Thanks!
re: Sushiqueen36
I poach them in salted water until tender, drain and smash them. When cool I douse them with olive oil and roast at 425 for 40 minutes. It is a fine cooking recipe, roasted smashed potatoes. Perfect every time!
re: cayjohan
You write beautifully!
re: cayjohan
It all sounds absolutely delicious. Congrats!
I, too, would like to know specifics of oil-poaching the spuds.
re: cayjohan
Loved reading about your wonderful evening, thanks for the report! Isn't it great when these social obligations turn out to be really enjoyable.
re: cayjohan
I love the report! And it sounds like a fantastic dinner. Please put me on the next invite list.
I love poaching in olive oil. Just love it. I, too, wish I had enough $$$ to do it with many many many more dishes.
re: debbiel
debbiel, have you tried poaching shrimp in olive oil? It's become our favorite method. Never rubbery, and the infused oil (with shrimp I also throw in some hot peppers, like serranos) flavors the shrimp wonderfully. I start with heating the oil and adding the garlic and peppers, then letting it sit awhile to infuse. Then, a slow poach with the shrimp just until they pink-up. The oil is great for mopping up with one's preferred mopping food.
re: cayjohan
I'm curious about this technique. When I cook shrimp in water, I bring to a boil, add the shrimp, cover, remove from heat and let sit about four minutes. To me, anything else is over cooked. I'd think the 'poaching' would be almost immediate. No?
re: c oliver
Generally when making shrimp in this fashion, I toss the crushed garlic and peppers into the cold oil and bring it up to a very gentle *almost* simmer, then shut the heat down and let it rest. Sometimes for a shorter time, sometimes for longer...the flavors infuse nicely on the longer end. With shrimp, I generally toss them in the infused oil when the oil it just sort of warmish. Then I just bring it up very slowly again and watch for the change to pink, at which point I pull the shrimp.
re: cayjohan
I would absolutely try that if I ate shrimp. Just can't find it in my to like any fish or seafood. But you poach on with your shrimp!
re: debbiel
similarly, i butter-poach shrimp all the time now. vary the seasonings and herbs in regards to different menus, but very delicious and way less spendy than olive-oil poaching.
bring butter up to low heat/melt. add ginger/garlic/chilis/thyme, etc. add shrimp. cook slowly til pink. fool-proof and is instant sauce for rice, pasta, bread or wilted greens.
re: hotoynoodle
I might have to reassess my cost with olive oil versus butter poaching. We so rarely use butter outside of holiday baking season, that I don't think of using it in its absence. The butter I use is not that different in cost versus the olive oil I use for shrimp; on my list to try- thank you!
re: cayjohan
re: hotoynoodle
How does this work? I thought you need food to be completely submerged to poach. Wrong?
re: hotoynoodle
I need to try it - so 1/2 cup butter will cover a pound of shrimp? Do you infuse flavours before putting shrimp in?

During the landing approach, the flight instructor and pilot undergoing instruction were unable to fully extend or retract the left main landing gear and, after multiple unsuccessful troubleshooting attempts, performed a gear-up landing. Postaccident examination revealed that the pivot assembly for the left main landing gear actuator had fractured and had separation features consistent with torsional fatigue. The Federal Aviation Administration previously issued an airworthiness directive (AD), which included an inspection of pivot assemblies for cracks, in accordance with a manufacturer's service bulletin (SB). The AD called for repetitive inspections of the pivot assembly if the airplane experienced a hard landing, and the SB recommended, in small print, full recompliance after a hard landing. The SB was complied with 12 years and 2,730 flight hours before the accident. The airplane was subsequently involved in a hard landing, and a reinspection was conducted; however, recompliance with the entire SB was not achieved as recommended in the SB, and the pivot failed 894 flight hours after the hard landing.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Examining 'pellets' can tell you what a bird has been eating
Here at the farm for the past several winters, we have had what we refer to as a "year-round resident red-tailed hawk." We haven't seen it as often this winter as in previous years, but it usually has appeared once a week. This bird also has a favorite white pine tree fairly near the outlet of our now "abandoned" beaver pond. Beneath that tree we have frequently collected "pellets" and have examined them to see what "Brother" red-tail has been eating.
Chris Martin of NH Audubon has reported that New Hampshire's portion of the 2014 National Mid-winter Bald Eagle Survey Day has again set a new state record high for the number of bald eagles seen. Faced with freezing rain and glare-iced roads over most of the state on the observation date Jan. 11, 2014 many dedicated observers rescheduled their "Survey Day" to Jan. 12, 2014 which found 76 volunteers who located 67 individual eagles, eclipsing the previous high of 61 birds, roughly a 10 percent increase. The Lakes Region observers tallied 20 eagles; the Connecticut River region found 19 eagles, and the Merrimack region was third, with 14 individuals. Martin reported this was the 34th consecutive year that NH Audubon has coordinated New Hampshire's part of the National Mid-winter Bald Eagle Survey. (Starting with the winter of 1980-81.) This year on "Survey Day," the observers found 41 adult bald eagles and 26 immatures exceeding previous records of 61 in 2009, 2010, and 2013.
Reference made in last week's column to crabapple seedling prices was unfortunately outdated. Also, three species of shrub favored by wild turkeys in winter are unavailable for sale or importation into New Hampshire. The barberry, multiflora rose, and bittersweet are considered invasive species. Phone numbers were included for several large nurseries; and information may also be obtained from the NH Forest Nursery, Boscawen.

Amplitude Compression in Hearing Aids
Amplitude compression is used in hearing aids (HAs) for protection and dynamic range reduction. While small distortion of strong signals should be secured, deformations of the output voltage may be observed. Intelligibility tests were preformed with commercially available HAs with amplitude compression (HACs) with various values of time constants of compression, harmonic distortion, and distortion during overshoots. Ten normal hearing listeners were presented with speech of Modified Rhyme Test (MRT) with signal to noise ratio (s/n) of -2 dB and +2 dB. For the first condition the shorter were the time constants of compression the better was the result. For the second condition the importance of time constants decreased and distortion during overshoots or harmonic distortion gained weight. The larger the distortion the smaller the score.

The outgoing ER-6f was already a very popular bike and thankfully Kawasaki haven't felt the need to radically alter it, rather improve its slight failings and make a good bike even better. The new chassis and looks are improved and the fairing adds an element of practicality that its naked brother, the ER-6n, is lacking. The seat height is low, ...
636cc, 135bhp, 186mph, Insurance group 15
Kawasaki has obviously tried to make the new ZX-6R more usable for the environment in which it'll be most used – the road. And in many ways they've succeeded. The new 636cc motor boasts a more usable spread of power and torque, both on the road and track, it's less manic, and easier to get the most out of for ...

With the 2012 Duke KTM have made a bike that can give an experienced rider the thrill they are looking for whilst being a more usable package with a broader appeal to a wider spectrum of riders than the previous version. The Duke is spot on for commuting and hammering down twisty country roads, where bigger, more powerful bikes would ...

The KTM 690 Duke's new LC4 single cylinder engine is the most impressive part of the new Duke. It's hard to believe it's a single, so much better than the lumpy single cylinder engines of old. The styling is very aggressive, it's laden in quality parts like WP suspension and Brembo brakes, and on the right road, hairpin after hairpin ...

659cc, 50bhp, 103mph, Insurance group 9
The MZ Mastiff is solidly-built and with looks that could launch nuclear missiles, "aggressive" just about sums up the Mastiff. However, it's a great road bike, easy and huge fun to ride. Perfect pulling power for townies or twisties and tough enough to withstand abuse and the elements. Pleasantly unusual, too. It's a goodie.
599cc, 100bhp, 145mph, Insurance group 14
If you're after a versatile sports-touring motorcycle, with a reliable engine, decent suspension and braking, plus the ability to carry two people plus kit for a two week holiday, the Yamaha YZF600R Thundercat is damn-near perfect. The Thundercat makes a real alternative to the VFR750/800 series and is very underrated.
599cc, 101bhp, 158mph, Insurance group 14
What a makeover! And just in time… As other sports 600s were creeping ahead, Suzuki looked as if it would be left for dead. And then they came up with this Suzuki GSX-R600. Slimmed down, firmed up and with power and torque figures to raise front wheels as well as eyebrows, the "new" Suzuki GSX-R600 was an absolute storm.

The MZ Baghira is a great bike for taking you to work or throwing you around mountainsides at weekends, the Baghira's a torquey little beast with brilliant, light handling. Cornering's hilarious. In town, that towering seat comes in handy. Quirky looks and a good price should make it real competition against its rivals

As a fun, realistic alternative to a licence-bashing sports middleweight, the Suzuki DL650 V-Strom's on to a winner. That engine is sublime, with mountains of really useable power where you want it.

Come for the snow, stay for the sun. As many locals will agree, summers in Tahoe are just as beautiful and full of adventure as the winters inspiring many a seasonal resort worker to stay long after last chair. Just two hours east of Sacramento on Interstate 80, Tahoe's sunny days on the beach, adrenaline pumping bike rides and wild night life of the South Shore are just a few reasons why a trip to the lake should be on your vacation agenda this summer.
It's summertime. In other words, you need a vacation. Everyone else might be heading to the coast this weekend, but not you. You're going to Vermont. The antithesis to the frenetic Jersey Shore, Stowe, Vermont, is the perfect place to spend a long weekend. Here's how.

Tax Help Expert Brian Compton Weighs in on Celebrity Tax Woes and What Taxpayers Can Learn
Is any publicity really good publicity?
This year alone, celebrity tax woes has caught taxpayers' eyes from coast to coast and even abroad. Earlier this month, our team's national tax expert Brian Compton was quoted in HowStuffWorks on how celebrities get in IRS trouble and why average taxpayers need to beware.
According to the HowStuffWorks article, celebrities meet their tax problems in various ways: "the oblivious (Nic Cage: I'm just an entertainer!), the nefarious (Heidi Fleiss: What extra income?) and the couldn't-prove-anything-else (Al Capone: Really? Tax evasion?)."
There's no mystery to how celebrities get hunted by Uncle Sam–they get in trouble just the same as you and I do–be it failing to file a tax return or having unpaid back taxes. The important lesson to take away from this is that it is a huge mistake to think that the IRS only goes after the celebrity cases. Uncle Sam likes to make examples out of these "big celebrity tax woes" to teach regular taxpayers a lesson.
So your best bet is to heed them. Don't think that just because you don't have a six-figure income and a jet that you won't be on the IRS radar. They have one of the biggest federal budgets in these recent years–just so that they can come after more taxpayers who owe them money.
Don't let IRS problems weigh you down. Educate yourself on what you need to do in order to prevent the headache of dealing with one of the most aggressive collections agencies in the world.

The "Dark Knight" fighting "Bane" in 2012? NICE TRY HIDING YOUR OBAMA ROMNEY POLITICAL MESSAGE FROM ME CHRIS NOLAN!
— Travon Free (@Travon) July 12, 2012

Is Dick Cheney the Lex Luthor?
A little while ago, we linked to a story in which conservative pundit Glenn Beck attempted to justify the egregious atrocities inflicted on the Constitution by George W. Bush by way of comparing his actions to those of a comic book character in the wildly popular and awesomely awesome movie The Dark Knight. (And, no, not The Joker.)
Well, Vermont Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy — who happens to be a huge Batman fan and actually has a bit role in The Dark Knight as a guy who supposedly looks like The Joker's father — has responded to Glenn Beck's very-well-thought-out argument…
Sorry Glenn but that's not just a stretch, it's a hoot. But I do grant the parallels between Superman's nemesis Lex Luthor and the Vice President.
Hear that? It's a "hoot." Vermont representatives don't get much more scathing than that.
I'm not sure about that Lex Luthor comparison, though. I think I would'a gone with Darkseid.
And, for Bush, I've have gone with Gleek.

Is George W. Bush the Batman?
If you saw The Dark Knight (and, if you haven't, why not?!) and noticed some similarities between the film's titular character — a psychotic outlaw who dresses in a costume and uses his vast wealth to exact his own form of justice — and President George W. Bush, then you're not alone.
Lots of right wing pundits feel the exact same way. In fact, here's radio host Glenn Beck on CNN…
But Batman goes into another country and with a C-130 snatches a guy out, and then throws him back here into Gotham. So there's rendition. At one point the Morgan Freeman character says to Batman, wait a minute, hang on, you're eavesdropping on everyone in Gotham? And Batman says, yes, to stop this terrorist.
Morgan Freeman says, I can't be a part of it. And yet Morgan Freeman does become a part of it, and they find the Joker. One of the ways they find the Joker is through eavesdropping. I mean the parallels here of what's going on is to me stunning…
Beck also said that Bush's willingness to "die as the worst president ever because of the war on terror" is "exactly the message that Batman carries."
Well, at least he got the "worst president ever" part right.
Anyway. So, what? Now we're drawing our collective morality from blockbuster movies with fictional characters about completely made-up events instead of from best-selling Bibles with fictional characters about completely made-up events? I suppose it's a fair trade off.
But you know what? I think the conservatives are choosing the wrong movie at which to look for guidance. I think we should be looking for the deep meanings and lessons of Step Brothers.
Yes, what I'm saying is that George Bush should go over to Iran and rub his sweaty balls all over Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's drum kit.

Survey: UK biz is using more encryption
Despite a run of high-profile security breaches, almost half of UK corporate laptops remain unprotected against theft and data loss, according to a survey of British businesses published on Thursday. Only 52 per cent of 320 UK public and private sector IT managers polled in the survey use data encryption on their corporate …
No standards
The problem with encrypted removable media is that there is no standard whatsoever... So you end up with a small unencrypted partition containing a binary windows program that users are expected to execute in order to gain access to the data.
Not only is this completely unusable for Linux/Mac users, but in many environments you would not be able to install the software anyway. Plus it adds yet another piece of software which almost certainly won't be centrally updated and will sooner or later end up full of security holes.
USB sticks are typically only used when you want to transport data to a system which is outside of the corporate network anyway, since it would be pointless to use a usb stick when its much easier to copy data over the network... USB sticks are used when users have to take data off site, or give data to third party contractors...
Also every vendor of such devices seems to implement their own software, and i doubt much of it has been thoroughly audited, and there have been several cases in the past where such software has had serious flaws in the encryption it uses.
What's needed is a standard for encryption of removable media, so that an encrypted device can be connected to any computer and without the need to install software can be mounted upon entering of the correct key.
Educate me....
In a MS small business server 2003 environment what are my options to enforce encryption?
What can I use to ENCOURAGE encryption?
(Most likely the first step I will take)
Can I build it into a corporate stick so that it it transparent (ish) to the user?
I know google probably has the answer but real world experiences would be gratefully received.
I wonder how Nokia Lumia's fit into this with no on-device encryption?
OK, is there a market for a small latex protector for a USB device?
Because we seem to have created one.

This week, the Pew Research Center released a study that focused on mobile phone users who donated to Haiti Relief in the days and weeks following the devastating earthquake there in 2010. Not surprisingly, the survey found that 73% of donors contributed via text message within 24 hours of hearing about the option to do so. The report is very in depth and highlights what tech the mobile users own, what charitable organizations they give to and how they perceive mobile giving overall.
Interesting to note:
The first in-depth survey of mobile donors, focusing on individuals who sent a contribution to the Haiti earthquake relief effort using the text messaging, finds that a sizeable majority of donors acted in response to images they saw on television, and involved minimal background research. The vast majority of these donors (89%) heard about the Text to Haiti effort on television, and half (50%) made their contribution immediately upon learning about the campaign.
