Grateful Dead 2 are DEAD......Furthur announced they are calling it quits this year.

Phil and Friends will go on at his club Terripan Station and maybe Bob will with Rat Dog at his club too....

While I still predict a 50th annoversario tour or shows of The Other Ones with the drummers in 2015, it does look like its winding down finally...

Quess I should try to make the show on Weds next week in Eugene.....

Grisly death at my regular bird watching park.
A guy flying a remote control model helicopter got the top of his head taken off by the rotor blades. I see these guys every week, and make a point of checking the field before they get there and scare off the birds (though I have seen falcons hunting in the same airspace with the helicopters.) And of course the NY Post can’t resist turning a tragedy into a joke; looks like they thought better of it online, but the print edition used the headline “Little Chopper Horror.”

Mycelial information networks:

When some plants are attacked by sap-sucking aphids, they emit volatile compounds into the air. These volatiles serve as a defense mechanism, and in more ways than one. First, they serve to repel the aphids attacking the plant. Second, they attract the aphids natural enemies, wasps. But there’s more to that: a team from the University of Aberdeen and the James Hutton Institute show that some plants use fungi to communicate the presence of aphids, allowing those plants to emit wasp-attracting and and aphid-repelling  volatiles even before they have been physically attacked.
