ST. JOHNSBURY A Vermont man is facing marijuana charges after his father turned him in to police, saying his son was growing it in some bedroom closets.
Twenty-year-old Nicholas Hough of St. Johnsbury pleaded not guilty to a felony charge of marijuana cultivation and a misdemeanor charge of marijuana possession Monday.
Police said Houghs father, Clifton Hough, went to the state police in February and said he suspected his son had set up marijuana growing operations in both of his bedroom closets at their home.
The 51-year-old Hough told police he wanted to put a scare into his son and no longer wanted illegal activity in his home.
Police executed a search warrant several days later and found four suspected marijuana plants and drug paraphernalia.MORE IN This Just InMaybe talking about life insurance isnt as bad as a root canal or as hard as talking with your...

For most people they just rest in the ear. For me it barely feels like they are there but the sound is incredible.

They look like they are very uncomfortable, but let me tell you...they are some of the most comfortable earbuds I've used. They don't need a cushion. Apple really did an amazing job with these.

From what I've heard (I read the online reviews), they are pretty comfortable. They play audio nicely, stay in your ear well, your ears aren't going to be sore after extended listening periods, and you can even sleep with them in and not have any problems. Hope this helps!

I usually can't use in-ear headphones because they are uncomfortable at best, painful at worst. I wore these pretty much for an entire 6 hour flight with no discomfort at all.

There's no cushion but they are just as comfortable as any other ear phone if not better

The Earpods do not hurt at all. No cushions. And are very comfortable. I fell asleep waring my Earpods watching a movie on my iPod Touch 4G. My nap lasted about 2 hours. Woke up with the Earpods in my ears. No discomfort at all. I was laying on my side I might add. So the perssure of a pillow against my ear with the Earpod in it did not hurt afterwards.

They aren't uncomfortable, but with any head movement, they fall out. Even just looking left and right they fall out. I'd use them if there were foam or gel cushions that made them fit securely. The foam cushions for the old earbuds don't fit them well. Tore trying to get them on.

A decade ago and as best selling book the purpose driven life.
He wrote god has a plan for us this holiday season as the nation tries to cope with the tragedy at sandy hook elementary.
His perspective takes on a special meeting.
Earlier I spoke with the evangelical minister -- -- -- welcome to FOX News Sunday thank you thank you Chris good to be -- you.
Nine days later we are still mourning the victims of the shooting in Newtown Connecticut what are your thoughts about this tragedy.
You know time magazine's calling it the massacre of innocence that actually there's a phrase from the first Christmas where -- Killed.
Baby boys -- -- -- at Christmas time and then it's very tragic that this is happening at christmastime.
I I think we have.
The -- sandy sandy hook and -- sandy hurricane.
We really need the Christmas spirit right now.
The -- the pain the deeper the grief if you were the words there there -- some long -- things we need to deal with.
Is to prevent this from happening again but right now we need to console those who are grieving.
As a Pastor -- he would grief every day of my life.
And I discovered the grief is actually a good thing it's the way we make transitions and the losses of life.
Jesus said blessed are those who mourn they should be comforted if we stuff our grief what I've figured out is that it comes out sideways.
Later on in some strange ways and so part of the -- healing process is actually dealing with the grief fend.
And the way we help people in grief is just deal with them.
-- you don't have to say anything you don't you don't need anything profound you don't need to be.
Why is you just need to sit with people -- love them during their grief.
You know -- we.
We talk if you say long term solutions and obviously some of them which were talking to the politicians about gun control and that Iraq has the mental Hal son.
You know trying to deal -- these violent games in the culture of violence in Hollywood yes but but it -- it hit him.
Deeper more spiritual sense what's the problem and what's the solution.
Well I think the spiritual sense is that the root of it.
If any time you have.
Major crisis -- tragedy like this that their -- multiple angles you know we've had seven major shootings.
Since April in America.
And there's always there's a mental health angle.
That you have to deal with -- I don't think we're taking care of those who are struggling mental illness like we need to -- America.
There is the -- the civil safety issue which is gun control and and these assault weapons and a -- assault weapons for nothing.
There is the and the social issues you mentioned win the students served.
By the time they're eighteen they may be -- killed 101020000.
People on video games without any.
You know remorse for it it creates a culture of violence.
But at the deepest level it is the spiritual issue which is the -- penis inside if people.
That causes people to to be -- -- like this.
When we when we don't have peace in our hearts -- not gonna have peace with each other that's -- Jesus the prince of peace came -- Christmas.
So it starts -- in the heart.
Ten years ago.
When your book the purpose driven life came out you I think it's sort of say became the face.
Of the evangelical movement your I think you'd agree that your public profile has not been as high.
In the last few years which are just about to begin a new campaign what is your goal sir.
Well first I intentionally.
Was absent from the scene for the last ten years I've had been in a lot of small villages around the world Africa in places like that that the most people never heard we started.
Would vote the proceeds of the book.
We took that and put it into a thing called the peace plan PE -- CE stands for promote reconciliation.
He -- leaders ethical leaders the system for care for the sick and educate the next generation.
And in the last ten years I've been overseas most of that time I had -- over 161000.
Of my members.
Doing humanitarian work in a 196.
Countries so.
I I can do is really not around a whole lot but except when I was here to church.
The new campaign is like I realize that.
What I wrote the book but what -- -- -- -- here for the purpose driven life.
A girl who was twelve years old when that book came out -- now up 22.
And if she needs to know the purpose of life and what I've discovered is -- a lot of people who are younger day in their twenties who worked pretty disillusioned with.
The American dream that I I hear this all time people say you know Rick -- I did before years of college and I've been out now and I've been one to three years without a job and had to move back and when my parents and a lot of people in their twenties early thirties feel like their life is on hold.
And they're kind of in limbo and so I thought I need to revised update from the book.
-- write a new six week spiritual journey called -- on at the right here for and and go after new generation to help them find some some meaning and purpose -- while we're waiting on the economy to turn around.
YouTube talked about a nation in decline and you talk about ending has -- -- as it's ever been since the civil war and you talk about a need for us virtual.
What what does that mean.
There are a lot of things we're never gonna agree on.
There are some things we'd all agree on when when you get down to the basics of it people want the same thing.
They want safety for their family they want -- security they want a good job they want to prosper they want our nation to be safe they want to be in good health.
What people disagree on -- how to get there.
And and so the answer to our unity I believe is not going to be in politics.
Because we're gonna have different degrees of it all over the spectrum on that.
But when we come together on the things are really mattered most in their three fundamental questions.
The question of significance and that is does my life matter.
The question of intention.
-- what is my purpose on the question of existence why am I here.
But these -- spiritual issues are not political issues and they can provide a rallying cry.
A purpose.
That could help -- unified we're not ever gonna agree on on policies but we can't agree on on direction.
You you talk about not agreeing on politics for years ago.
You deliver the invocation at president Obama's first inauguration.
-- question.
-- do you think he's done as president.
Well you know what.
I would say like every president there are things I agree that.
I think he did a pretty good job on I think there's some things that I totally disagree with the -- on.
I made that known to him.
You know four years earlier I did the opening prayer for the inauguration week for President Bush also.
And the -- agreed with some of the things he did and disagreed with some of them every every.
President is bound to be set up for failure because the moment he's elected half the people don't like him.
I -- -- stuff so he's gonna have but he's a human being is gonna make mistakes.
That bill that I I'm I'm praying for our president because I believe that the Bible tells us to do so what do what do you think isn't that isn't.
Biggest accomplishment and what are you what are you most disappointed about over these last four years.
I don't know what the biggest accomplishment would be -- really don't know that I might this biggest disappointment is.
That this unity.
Obama ran.
-- saying I'm gonna be a unifier and our nation is more divided than ever before.
I think it's more divided than that any time since the civil war that's disheartening to me.
Well you know he would society.
I've tried and you know you had Mitch McConnell say had been in 2010.
Are number one objective is to make them -- one term president.
How much is he responsible for about how much is it.
Everybody else in Washington.
Yeah I know I don't I don't blame simply the president I think there's plenty of blame to go around but I would say this we need to stop blaming.
You can't fix the problem while you're fixing the blame.
I've trained leaders literally all around the world.
For the last thirty years and one of the things they teach leadership is that.
Accept the responsibility.
And and are accept the blame and and they give away the credit.
And I I see a lot of politicians do in exact opposite today you spell blame be blame.
-- -- every time you blame your being white so I wish that both sides would stop blaming.
And start fixing the problem.
-- -- -- Even in a bleak season like this year and obviously.
New town is gonna color everything about the rest of the season.
We still look forward to Christmas do you have a message.
For all of loss.
-- -- also all of our viewers this year's -- out.
You know Chris the purpose of Christmas is actually found in the in the three statements that the angels made at the very first Christmas.
It that it Christmas is for celebration.
It is for salvation and it's for reconciliation.
That's the one we want to thank you so much for talking with us that we that we need to -- celebration right now things you and Merry Christmas.
Very Christmas.

This is probably in the category of "Yup, that's the way it is, deal with it", but, just in case anyone has any ideas, I'm throwing it out there. In the course of testing the gigabit connection in a new server, I noticed that overloaded dual AMD systems take a big hit in network bandwidth. I'm testing with ttcp, and all connections were made over the same switch (HP Procurve 2324). As an example, the results for a Tiger MPX (S2466) based node with dual 1900+s and using the integrated 3Com are: unloaded: 11486.6 KB/real sec 2 matlab simulations: 10637.8 KB/real sec 2 matlab simulations and 2 SETI at homes (nice -19): 6645.4 KB/real sec Ouch. This is on RedHat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.9-31. I eliminated every variable I could think of -- I tried this on an S2462 (Thunder MP) based system, I used a PCI Intel eepro100 card rather than the built-in 3Com, I upgraded to an almost vanilla (French Vanilla?) 2.4.18 kernel (the one from SGI's 1.1 XFS release). All showed the same results (well, 2.4.18 didn't show much of a drop with just the two matlabs, but still crashed with matlab+SETI). The one Intel system I tested (dual PIII 933 on an i860) showed very little bandwidth drop with load, and no extra drop for an overload. Any ideas? Is there any way to fix this? Or is the answer just to not run background nice jobs on cluster nodes? Thanks. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University

Crazed Spaniards reveal 450hp, V8-powered IFR GT-21 Invictus - successor to the equally bonkers Aspid
Dressed up like Robocops Caterham, the Aspid was a weird-looking thing, the superficial resemblance to the Seven is perhaps the biggest red herring in the whole package, given the technology underpinning it. Based around a 55kg aluminium spaceframe with bonded-in honeycomb crash protection and running a supercharged Honda S2000 engine with around 400hp, there was nothing primitive in the engineering, IFRs neat touchscreen interface a shop window for the firms core ambition of working as an industry consultancy. And it drove as distinctively as it looked: soft, rally-bred suspension with fantastic damping and lots of travel based around a seemingly square wheelbase meant frankly violent direction changes along IFRs local roads, home also to the Rally Catalunya.
That was then and this is now, and the Aspids successor is no less extreme in looks or performance but offering just a tad more space and mainstream appeal. Relatively.
Dont let the shades of Plymouth Prowler put you off either this is no boulevard cruiser, but the next step in IFRs distinctively single-minded approach to cutting-edge supercars. Four cylinders have become eight, and the screaming Honda VTEC has been replaced with a 450hp, 4.4-litre BMW V8 that apparently incorporates a new generation of sports car hybridisation, which increases the dynamic performance of the vehicle while being respectful of the environment. No trees were harmed in the building of this supercar, or something like that.
Like the Aspid, the Invictus will hit 62mph in less than three seconds and is projected to top 187mph. Itll weigh just 990kg (dry) is, at 4,447mm in length and 1,883mm in width, a smidge smaller in footprint than a McLaren MP4-12C and, like the Aspid, puts the emphasis on handling rather than vmax bragging rights.
Distinctive features from the Aspid, including the extruded aero section aluminium suspension arms and incredibly delicate-looking but hugely powerful twin front discs (lighter and more powerful than conventional ceramics and quicker to warm up, says IFR) will be carried over but the new car gets a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and much more besides. Displays integrated into the wheel and touchscreen interaction reduce interior clutter and build on earlier systems developed for the Aspid too, IFR saying it will build up to 250 GT-21s a year with each customised to individual spec from a range of over 100 options.
IFR isnt talking pricing yet, but given the Aspid was nudging six figures already dont expect it to be any kind of bargain.

By Nov. 11, McDaniel's coaches and players are also hoping to see something else new - a winning record.
Once a perennial powerhouse and NCAA Division III playoff qualifier in the Centennial Conference , the Green Terror have not had a record better than 5-5 since 2004.
The task of erasing that trend belongs to Mike Hoyt, hired as the 24th head coach in school history and to replace Tim Keating, who resigned after a 110-83-2 record, tops in wins in school history.
Keating's gone, but Hoyt, who arrived at the Westminster, Md., college in March, said the players left behind have a winning attitude.
"We've got a group of guys that really want to be good," Hoyt said at the recent Centennial Conference football media day. "I noticed that right off the bat when I went through the interview process. "
In fact, Hoyt has plenty of pieces to the Green Terror puzzle because eight starters return on both sides of the football, but the coach said starting jobs are not assured.
"Just because you're a starter the year before doesn't mean you're going to be a starter the following year," he said. "Competition is what brings out the best in people."
In truth, though, Hoyt has found some sure things in preseason camp, principally sophomore quarterback Nick Valori and junior running back Joe Rollins.
Valori ranks second among returning Centennial quarterbacks in passing yardage from 2011 with 1,638 yards as a freshman. Rollins is a returning All-Centennial selection who rushed for 1,401 yards last fall.
"When you have a great player like that," Hoyt said about Rollins, "you've got to get the ball in his hands as much as you can."
In addition, wide receiver Nick O'Melia leads all returning Centennial receivers with 19.4 yards per catch, perhaps perfect for Hoyt's spread attack.
"Part of the transition was simple because I've always been a 4-3-type guy (on defense) and, offensively, my philosophy has been similar to what's been done in the past with a spread system," Hoyt said.
On defense, Hoyt's plans will revolve around returning All-Centennial second-team linebacker Mike Cousar, a junior who posted nine tackles for losses among his 70 stops in 2011, and Tim McLister, who paces all returning Centennial defensive backs with 71 tackles last fall.
However, despite those numbers, McDaniel struggled in the fourth periods of games last year. The Green Terror suffered six losses by eight or fewer points, a sore subject among those players who interviewed Hoyt.
"That showed me something about them, whether it's frustration or a hunger and desire, that it was this close, and we want to do whatever it takes to make that outcome different next year," Hoyt said.
Hoyt's answer to those players was apparently what they wanted to hear.
"It was a multi-faceted answer," Hoyt said. "Character and leadership is number one. When you have outstanding character and leadership, you can win close games.
"Number two is our strength and conditioning program. It shows me, if you're going to be there in the fourth quarter, you're going to play 60 minutes."

We're asking you to change how you log in to LOVEFiLM. First of all, please don't panic, it's a quick update: switching from your existing LOVEFiLM details to using Amazon account details instead.
Switching is easy, there are just a few simple steps to follow – switch here
Why do you need to do this?
LOVEFiLM is now an Amazon company, so we're streamlining our systems. You'll need to switch details to continue using LOVEFiLM. It means you'll have one less password to remember, of course, and one less set of account details to manage.
At the point of switching, you'll enter both your Amazon details and your LOVEFiLM credentials.
Some customers may need to re-enter credit/debit card details.
Don't worry…
Your personal data is completely safe, as switching occurs on a secure website server. LOVEFiLM will still appear on your credit card/bank statements. Your Rental list, Watchlist and viewing history will still be available after you've switched your account, just as before. All your settings will be transferred and any LOVEFiLM bookmarks will also continue to work.
After switching, use your Amazon details whenever you log in.
Xbox, PS3 and Wii users will need to switch using the LOVEFiLM website, but those consoles will then automatically recognise your Amazon account details and continue to function seamlessly. If you need to sign in again after switching (if you get a new device, for example), please do so with your Amazon details.
What if you don't have an Amazon account?
You can easily create one as part of the switching process – your existing LOVEFiLM delivery address and billing details will be automatically and securely added to the new Amazon account you create.
For further information, please take a look at our FAQS, or feel free to contact Customer Services…

The Hungarian parliament's Economic Committee Monday nominated two new members, Janos Cinkotai and Gyorgy Kocziszky, to the central bank's rate-setting Monetary Policy Council. Monday's parliamentary appointment of the new rate setters may make it possible for the governing Fidesz party to take control of monetary policy to loosen it.
The government and the central bank have been at loggerheads about economic policy ever since the Fidesz party's landslide election victory last year. The government wants to boost growth while the central bank wants to lower inflation. Those two goals are set to put the central bank and Fidesz on a collision course as they, most of the time, are not compatible.
"We think markets will give them the benefit of doubt and wait to see actions and minutes of rate meetings before making judgment so the [market] reaction should be benign," said Nomura economist Peter Attard Montalto.
"That said it would be somewhat of an exaggeration to say these appointments ease investor fears as some others have done. We retain our view that these members have been put in place to engineer a rate cut later in year—even if individual members are independent of the government," Mr. Montalto added.

Drawing on the expertise of our reporters in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Russia and Turkey, the site provides an inside track on economics, politics and business in this emerging part of the European continent.

If not a do-over, the Royal High boys basketball team at least earned a feel-better with its performance Wednesday night.
"We definitely wanted to come out tonight and run and put up some points," said Royal senior point guard Max McCoy. "We've been working on our offense a lot in practice this week, and it showed tonight.
"We played well against the zone, and were able to build a lead. It feels good just to keep playing. We've all been playing together a long time, and we weren't ready to have it end."
Posting a victory that was both redeeming and historic, Royal rode 17 points from Weston Park, 15 points from Scott Woods and 13 points and seven assists from McCoy to a 71-61 victory over Sun Valley-Poly in the opening round of the CIF State Division III Southern California Regionals at Royal High.
The triumph marked a first to celebrate.
Royal made its first appearance in the state playoffs a year ago and lost in the first round of the Division II regionals. Now it has the first state playoff victory in program history.
"It means a lot," said McCoy, whose team improved to 24-8. "We've been able to put up a lot of accomplishments in the last two seasons. It's great to have that first state playoff win."
The redemption was obvious, too.
Royal was back in action for the first time since losing a 49-32 verdict to Tustin last Thursday in the CIF-Southern Section Division 3AAA championship game at the Anaheim Convention Center. The Highlanders scored just two points in the first period and six points in the first half.
Against Poly, Royal scored point No. 7 on McCoy's 3-pointer with 5:07 remaining in the first period. By halftime, the lead was 35-24.
"We know we're better than we showed against Tustin," said Park, a senior guard. "We moved the ball around well tonight, and hit our shots. It's a good feeling to play well and have the chance to keep playing."
Added McCoy: "I am still not over the Tustin game. I'm still not over the loss to Inglewood in last year's (CIF) finals. But we're still playing, and we want to enjoy this as long as we can."
Royal, seeded No. 6, moves into the regional quarterfinals on Saturday night with a road game at Bakersfield-Independence. The No. 2 seed held off Compton, 60-58, on a final-second 3-pointer.
Royal earned the victory despite a 32-point outburst from Poly's Cesar Reyes. The Poly guard scored 17 points in the final period.
Royal coach Craig Griffin said team defense becomes the key in the next round.
(View the Basketball: Royal win slide show.)
"We don't give up 61 points very often," he said. "That's not like us at all. We just didn't do a very good job in stopping (Reyes)."
Leading 40-31 in the third period, Royal all but cinched the victory with a 14-6 run to close out the period. Chris Terry, a JV call-up for postseason, ended the surge with a 3-pointer.
Try as he might, Reyes couldn't bring back Poly in the fourth. Back-to-back baskets by Woods, including a 3-pointer, upped the advantage to 61-44 midway through the period.

David Pache
I'm starting a new section in my blog where I'm going to present and recommend talent of many areas, but all related to web development. I believe it is very important this connection with what is being created around the web and us (developers), because besides being good to inspire ourselves, it help us to became more competitive and to ensure we are in a continuous learning, always focusing in our self improvement.
I'm going to present a designer, called David Pache, who brings a minimalist style that in my point of view is something the so called web 2.0 is all about: simplicity. The designer bests creations are his logos. You can see all the process of creating a logo, as well color studies in his "dacheboard" which is kind like a blog, where he wrotes about he develop his works.
Make sure to visit his portfolio. Bellow is just a sample of David's work.

Bucks hold off the 76ers - 0 Comments
MILWAUKEE — He's a new man.
Ersan Ilyasova, suddenly brimming with confidence, is sinking shots, tipping balls and grabbing rebounds again.
And it's hardly a coincidence the Milwaukee Bucks also are singing a new tune.
The Bucks won their third straight game Tuesday night as they held off the Philadelphia 76ers, 110-102, at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
Ilyasova finished with 27 points and a season-high 16 rebounds, following up his 27-point, 14-rebound performance in a Bucks victory at Portland on Saturday.
