MANITOWOC, WI (WSAU-Wheeler News) -- Heroin is already a bad drug, but authorities are warning that a batch circulating in Manitowoc could be fatal.
Police say the warning comes after two drug users nearly overdosed within a 12-hour period. A spokesperson for Manitowoc Police says if it wasn't for the quick response of emergency personnel, they would have died.
Authorities are quick to note that heroin is illegal and does not condone the use of illegal drugs, but they have an obligation to warn citizens.

The worst part about being robbed
Keep the list anywhere but your wallet -- stored on your phone or laptop, e-mailed to yourself, with a friend or relative.
The weeding out is as important as the list making. There's no reason for me to have carried that department-store card, since I use it once a year, tops. My wallet also held a gift card to a Seattle restaurant, which obviously couldn't have been used in Chicago.
"Carry only what you need," Kelly says.
Two weeks after the fact, I'm remembering other wallet plumpers, such as my library card, punch cards for a bakery outlet store and my favorite teriyaki place, a Miraculous Medal given to me by an old friend, a picture drawn by my great-nephew and my membership card from American Mensa. That last one was feeling less appropriate by the minute anyway.
Careful what you carry
What shouldn't ever be in your wallet? Anything with sensitive information, such as a birth certificate or Social Security card -- it's manna from heaven for an identity thief. Both of these things were in Florida resident Kelly D.'s purse when she set it down at a favorite tavern and turned to chat with a friend.
"Which in hindsight, I guess, is pretty stupid," says Kelly, who asked that her full name not be used.
She'd put the two items in her bag for safekeeping during a recent move and then forgot to take them out. Kelly lost cash and credit cards, too -- and to add insult to injury, the crook used her smartphone to post profane messages to her Facebook page.
"There's a whole lot of jerks out there," says Kelly, whose new phone is password-protected.
Senior citizens are vulnerable because Social Security numbers are incorporated into Medicare ID numbers. Here's one way around that: Photocopy the card and cover the last four digits with a black marker. Carry this with you day to day, taking your real card only when you have a doctor's appointment.
A regular health insurance card leaves you vulnerable, too. It's really just "a credit card with a million-dollar credit line," according to Rebecca Busch, the author of "Healthcare Fraud: Auditing and Detection Guide."
Medical identity theft has serious implications. If the thief's health records get mixed up with yours, you might find it harder to get health or life insurance. For example, "your" medical records might show you as being HIV-positive.
Busch's favorite cautionary tale is of a woman whose insurance card was stolen by a pregnant addict. The state tried to take custody of the woman's children because they thought she'd just given birth while addicted to methamphetamine. Worse, the woman needed surgery the next month and was nearly transfused with the addict's blood type rather than her own.
The author suggests asking insurance providers for a new ID number (which may not be possible) and scrutinizing every explanation of benefits statement that comes your way, to be sure no one is having dental work done on your dime.
Financial decoys
A couple of hours after the mugging, I was on a plane to Chicago. I got through airport security with a second form of picture ID: my passport. I've carried it on travels for years, in case I lost my wallet.
It is possible to get on a plane without a picture ID, according to the Transportation Safety Administration's website. But this generally requires "additional screening," so I'm glad I didn't have to go that route. I've had the special pat-down, and it's pretty startling.
Two other things that made travel possible: the cash and credit cards stored elsewhere on my person. I keep most of my money and credit cards in coat or jeans pockets and in a small fanny pack under a sweater. My theory: Thieves are in a hurry, so finding some money and at least one card in the wallet might be enough.
Security specialist John Rendeiro also uses financial decoys. On a recent trip to Spain he put some money and one card in a pocket wallet but kept his ID and the bulk of his cash and cards in a waistband wallet under his shirt.
And back home? Rendeiro recommends carrying just one credit card and "minimal" cash, even if you're only heading out to lunch.
"You just want to minimize the (potential) damage," says Rendeiro, who's with the medical and security firm International SOS.
In store checkout lines I've glimpsed wallets that look like museums of credit: six or seven cards, each displayed in a little plastic sleeve. That's not a good idea, says Richard Barrington of MoneyRates.com.
"Every one of those things is like a window. If (theft) happens, those windows become places where the criminal can come into your house," Barrington says.
Close the windows, already. Choose one or two cards and lock up the rest.
Reasonable precautions
Pickpockets and thieves have been with us since cities were invented. If you've never been robbed, you're either very lucky, very vigilant or very unapproachable. Or maybe you live in North Dakota.
We can't be guaranteed safe passage through life. What we can do is take reasonable precautions. Someone once laughed at me for carrying a passport when flying to my home state of New Jersey, which is technically not a different country.
Now I'm glad I did. It's awkward enough to take off your shoes and belt at airport security. The last thing I needed was a special pat-down while suffering from the shock and adrenaline hangover of having been robbed an hour earlier.
I hope that thieves never find you. But if they do, I hope you get the kind of belly laugh I got later. The bank customer-service rep told me one of those three knuckleheads wrote a check on my business account and deposited it in his bank account. Honest.
He made it out for $8,000 and wrote "for serivces (sic) rendered" in the memo line. How on earth did he come up with that amount? Because $7,000 seemed penny-ante but $9,000 might have looked suspicious?
The banker couldn't say whether the guy would be prosecuted, although I expect the police might want a look at him in connection with similar robberies. Myself, I'd be tempted to visit him in jail and offer to teach him how to spell.
Donna Freedman is a freelance writer in Seattle. You can find more of her writing on MSN Money's Frugal Cool blog and at Surviving and Thriving (motto: "Life is short. But it's also wide.").
@ flare, i can relate, i worked in customer service in the past and it has happened to me too, not almost having to involve the police, but people throwing a fit about having their I.D. verified. i just don't understand that, i don't even signaturize the back of my cards in hopes of my I.D. getting checked, and in some cases I grab both my debit/credit card along with my license, waiting for them to ask for it. some people just strive for unnecessary confrontation, i guess.
I live in TX so yes, it is easier for me. Traveling does present a problem. I agree that other devises should be used when a gun can't be. We've have those as well.
However, so people don't think I'm some gun totting redneck, which I'm not, I think the best defense is to know your surroundings and avoid bad places. I'm amazed when I see a young woman walking alone anywere Downtown Dallas for example.
Great article, as usual. I'm so sorry for what happened to you. It is, by far, one of my biggest fears. In college back in the 80's, I lost my wallet and it took nearly an act of Congress to get everything straightened out. My biggest regret, however, was that the wallet itself was a beautiful gift from a dear friend. I decided at that time to be more vigilant in keeping the contents of my purse safe. You've given me food for thought as far as to what I should take out even though I've scaled back a lot over the years. I'd be so mad if I lost the cards for the seven or eight free subs I've earned from my favorite sub shop.
Take care and thanks for the great advice.
Rik Reed....
I totally agree....I carry a concealed weapon as well but not all states allow for it and some people just don't like guns. If I had to guess you probably live in one of the southern states like me that allows for more lenient hand-gun laws. If you live in a May-Issue or No-Issue state it's fairly difficult to carry a hand-gun legally. In any case there are other alternatives to protecting yourself beside a hand-gun i.e. tazers, pepper spray. etc. You also have to take into consideration that pulling a gun means you're ready to kill someone or be killed and not a lot of people want to get into that kind of situation...sometimes losing 50-100 bucks in cash and a few credit cards etc...is worth avoiding death or knowing you had to kill someone.
Imagine how they'd scream and holler if their cards were taken and used without their permission -- you're not liable for it but you have to fill out paperwork and/or close and reopen the account. It all takes time and aggravation. And if the credit card companies are defrauded, you know who's going to end up paying. (Hint: Probably not the crooks.)
Thanks for reading, and for leaving a comment.
USAA, in order to allow me phone access to talk to a CSA made me verify something that they drew from "public records" - well, the questions they asked me went back 25 years! Yes, I could remember that I lived on Harvard Ave. East 25+ years ago, but did I remember the exact street address? No. I made a guess, and luckily guessed right.
Lesson here - don't count on being able to just call up the CSA line and get what you want - there is added security there too that may be beyond your ability to access away from home. So, carry what you need, but no more. Be prepared to be inconvenienced if what you need got left at home.
along with the precautions outlined in the article, Rik's excellent advice below is worth serious consideration
even a little old granny can put up a fight if she has a gun in her purse and knows how and is willing to use it
with the right kind of weapon; i.e., a revolver with a concealed hammer - you can even shoot through your clothing or a purse without even having to draw the gun, before the mugger even realizes you are armed
A Ruger LCR loaded with 135 grain Speer Gold dots is not a bad choice for a beginner...
Best defense against this is to get a license to carry a gun. Learn how to use it. Become an expert. Take self-defense/self awareness classes so you have eyes in the back of your head at all times, especially in public places.
Take no chances. If a thug threatens you in any way, blow a hole in his chest. Both me and my wife are protected. I've always been unapproachable. It's nice being 6'5" and fit. Criminals and thugs are cowards so they pick easy targets. But now that we are in our 50's, I don't feel so invincible. A thug even looks like he's going to attack me, my wife or my family... he's dead. End of story. No apologies. No feel bad. He started it. I ended it.

Apply degreaser liberally along the length of the chain as you turn the crank backward. Use an old toothbrush or non-metal brush to scrub away the loosened grime, being sure to give the cassette and chainrings a thorough going-over as well. If you're out of degreaser—or never owned any—at least wipe the chain with a rag.
First, give the chain a few seconds to air off. (For a long love session, you'd let the chain air-dry for 5 minutes in the sun.) Then use your oil of choice to lightly coat every link and sideplate of the chain. Spin the cranks backward to ensure complete penetration of the oil into the chain links. Make sure the cassette cogs receive a light coat as well.
Backpedal the drivetrain again, using a rag to wipe lube from the chain and cassette. Why are you wiping off lube you just put on? You want every moving part to be covered by a film of oil that sticks, not a river of oil that runs off.
Shift into the largest cog in the rear, then upshift back into high gear without turning the cranks. This puts enough slack in the cable to allow you to remove the first piece of housing (which goes into the derailleur) from its cable guide. You need split cable stops to do this. If you don't have 'em, forget it.
Wipe the exposed cable to remove old lubricant and debris. Using a blob of grease on your fingers, smear a light coat along the length of the cable. Work the grease back and forth over the cable, ensuring full lube penetration. When finished, wipe off the excess. As before, you just want to leave a thin light coat. Replace the housing.
Start from the rear derailleur and lube each section of cable/housing all the way up to the shifter. Repeat for the front derailleur cable and housing, shifting the derailleur to the large chainring, then going for the small ring without pedaling to create cable slack.

1:00 amTenors: Lead with Your Heart, The The Tenors, a group formed in Canada, have traveled the world since 2008. From Johannesburg to Shanghai, London to Los Angeles, they have inspired millions of music lovers with their rich harmonies, addictive charm and powerful songs. Now they're back with a dazzling concert which takes place in the breathtaking 2050 seat Reynolds Hall at The Smith Center. They perform all new music from their second album, Lead With Your Heart.
Each act stretches the boundaries of classical crossover by combining classic songs, modern tunes and Spanish and French world music. From cover features of Bob Dylan's "Forever Young" to the inspirational anthem "Amazing Grace", and one of the most recognizable and heroic Tenor arias, "Nessun Dorma," the diverse performance features an eclectic mix of pop favorites and classical staples along with new compositions written and co-written by The Tenors.

2:30 amGreat Performances [#3804(] The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour Released in 1967, "Magical Mystery Tour" was arguably ahead of its time, with its mostly improvised and loosely plotted script providing a charming comic showcase for The Fab Four and their idiosyncratic sense of humor. The film recounts a series of episodic misadventures of John, Paul, George and Ringo on a bus tour with a cast of eccentric characters including Auntie Jessie, tour director Jolly Jimmy Johnson, tour hostess Miss Wendy Winters and conductor Buster Bloodvessel. Newly restored, the often antic production numbers feature such now Beatles standards as "Magical Mystery Tour," "The Fool on the Hill," "I Am the Walrus" and "Hello, Goodbye." duration 1:29:25 SRND51 TVPG

Big Bird and Snuffy realize the letter must have two straight lines. The next guest is wax, so Big Bird and Snuffy think the letter must be "W", but that letter has four straight lines.

After he says the words out loud, Snuffy realizes that all of the letters end with the same sound. They figure out that these words don't start with the same letter, but end with the same letter-"X"! Leela helps them cross the two straight lines of the broken letter together and they form the letter "X"!

Office supplies are not glamourous or fun, but they are essential to everyday business life and, sadly, add up on the bottom line - whether you're a small, medium or even large enterprise. Staff losing pens, leaving notepads at meetings and printing unnecessarily can, over the course of a few years, really burn a hole in your pocket. Yet it's one of the biggest categories for voucher codes and deals and it's efficient, as you rarely get incorrect or damaged supplies delivered to your office.

By J. DeVoy
The maxim of "if I can't have [something], then no one will" is childish, but very effective in estate planning disputes. To demonstrate this point, we'll use a hypothetical where you're a child of parent with inheritable assets, and have an all-around inferior sibling – albeit one whom your parents insist they love equally – who is also in line for those assets. For various reasons, your parents insist on at least an equal division of assets, but also threaten to write you out of the will and leave you nothing because of your antipathy for lesser family members.
Do you just lie there, take it, and watch five to six, even seven, figures of future value evaporate because of their mercurial whims? No! You litigate!
Hiring a lawyer to vigorously defend your entitlement to an inheritance – morally, if for no other basis – can be an incredible financial boon. Merely the knowledge that you've lawyered up can lead the future decedents to change their plans, especially upon seeing how much it can cost to repel even a steady stream of letters – depleting the pool of assets they intended to leave behind in the first place. Once they realize the financial toll of such an engagement, the future decedents may back off their plans to posthumously screw you. Even if such soft-touch prompts to reconsider fail, a lawyer can evaluate ways to attack the sufficiency of the decedents' will or wills, and fight to ensure you receive a fair share if the decedents die without a will.
The not-yet-dead can try to get around this by pouring assets into a trust, but that will leave them with fewer assets available to withstand a legal action (formal or not) against them. Generally speaking, you cannot eat a trust res (and the trustee would likely be in breach of fiduciary duty for allowing anyone to do so), making a policy of being cash-poor untenable. Thus, trying to hide assets beyond your reach in a trust may have the ultimate effect of significantly weakening the party or parties trying to protect their assets. Even after the trust is created, it may be altered or terminated to reflect the subsequent good sense of asset-holders who were too clever by half.
