SeaTimes infection?

A spooky note on the front page of the Seattle Times site today:

"You may have heard reports about viruses on seattletimes.com news stories. To the best of our knowledge, these kinds of attacks have never occurred by clicking on news articles. In general, malware attacks come from unscrupulous advertisers who target news and information sites across the country through a complex web of ad networks. If you experience anything suspicious on our site, do not click on it, shut down your machine, and then contact our Webmaster with as many details as possible."

One hopes they will follow up and tell us more . . .

Tis the season

You can tell it's the season in the Willamette Valley when . . . the helicopters swoop in to pick up Christmas trees from the tree farms.

Grow a lot of them around here. More than anywhere else in the country.
