Our feeders have remained popular with three finch species: American goldfinch, red crossbill, and pine siskin. The other day when I got home I parked up above where you can overlook our houseboat. The finches were out in full force and it was fun to watch them going to and from our feeders to the trees that were right at eye level. Red crossbills and American goldfinches at the feeders In total there were about thirty pine siskins, twenty crossbills, and between five and ten goldfinches. Female red crossbill on top of a madrone tree American goldfinch in the madrone tree While watching all the finches, a male rufous hummingbird came by and started feeding at the orange honeysuckle vines on the hillside: The madrones have been in peak bloom over the last week - noticeable both by their smell and the tiny snow-like blossoms falling to the ground. Here's what the trees have looked like: If you're not familiar with the Pacific madrone ( Arbutus menziesii ), it's a native west coast tree related to manzanita and rhododendron. It has leaves, not pine needles, but is an evergreen, and is notorious for the red, paper-like bark that peels off to reveal green wood underneath. My co-worker Dave brought a couple of the tiny white flowers into work last week and we looked at them under one of our microscopes. The tiny structures inside are amazing! Check it out: I can only guess what I'm seeing, but it looks like maybe tiny seeds with roots starting to emerge, and sticky hairs with balls of nectar on them? Next up, get ready for some crazy cuteness....

mask.of.sanity writes "Lights, sounds and magnetic fields can be used to activate malware on phones, new research has found. The lab-style attacks defined in a paper (PDF) used pre-defined signals hidden in songs and TV programmes as a trigger to activate embedded malware.

Even more obvious is the need for electrical wiring in couches and coffee tables. I realize that there are safety (fire) concerns but as it stands most families that I know already have power cords for laptops, tables and phones draped over, under and through their couches at any given point. If someone wanted to wire their furniture with AC or some type of standardized LV DC system, what are some dangers to watch for and what, if any, specialized hardware exists for the purpose?"

[The unnamed company alleges] the agency violated the Fourth Amendment in 2011, when agents executed a search warrant for financial data on one employee – and that led to the seizure of information on 10 million, including state judges. The search warrant did not specify that the IRS could take medical information, UPI said. And information technology officials warned the IRS about the potential to violate medical privacy laws before agents executed the warrant, the complaint said." Also at Nextgov.com.
