How to Make Friendship Floss Water Bottle Bracelets
By: Heidi Borchers
Plastic bottle crafts are a fun way to recycle! Learn how to make Friendship Floss Water Bottle Bracelets from Heidi Borchers using embroidery floss. Choose a flat plastic bottle and cut out a bangle - it's so easy to get started. This craft is perfect for beginners!
Wrap Aleene's Fabric Fusion tape around a water bottle and cut around the adhesive. Pull the adhesive off slowly and begin wrapping the ebroidery floss along the sticky plastic surface. You can choose a variety of floss colors to create a pattern or make one solid bracelet. Cut off the extras once your bracelet is covered. Add a dab of Aleene's Tacky Glue to ends of the floss so no pieces poke out. Feel free to use buttons and other embellishments to make your bracelet stand out.

DETROIT (AP) — A man rounding up his dogs late at night testified Wednesday that he warned Detroit police that children were inside a home moments before an officer burst through the door and fatally shot a 7-year-old girl.
Mark Robinson said a stun grenade thrown through a window to confuse people inside sounded like a "bomb going off." He said he next heard a gunshot and a woman screaming, "Y'all killed my baby."
"One cop ran out with Aiyana in his arms," Robinson told jurors, referring to Aiyana Stanley-Jones.
Officer Joseph Weekley is on trial for involuntary manslaughter, accused of negligence in failing to control his submachine gun as he entered the home in search of a murder suspect in May 2010. Aiyana was shot in the head while sleeping on a couch near the front door.
Weekley contends that he accidentally fired the gun when Aiyana's grandmother, also on the couch, reached for it. Prosecutors, however, said there was no struggle.
The third day of trial revealed tensions between police and prosecutors handling the case. While being questioned by the defense, Sgt. Anthony Potts described Weekley as a "damn good" officer and the department's elite Special Response Team as "family."
Moments later, assistant prosecutor Rob Moran's voice rose as he challenged Potts: "Is that how you consider the defendant, like family? So you're testifying against family?"
Earlier in his testimony, Potts hesitated when asked about training and how officers should handle a submachine gun. Moran wondered if Potts' loyalty for Weekley was a factor.
"You had a hard time expressing what you wanted," Potts replied, referring to the prosecutor's questions.
Robinson lived in the two-story duplex where Aiyana was killed. He said he was still awake after midnight because his pit bull puppies had escaped under a fence. He said police forced him to the ground just as the raid was about to start.
"I'm yelling to them, 'There's kids in the house,'" Robinson testified. "They ignored me. They continued to bum-rush the house. That's when the flash-bang was (thrown) and the shot went off."
He said Aiyana was carried out "like a rag." Potts said she was rushed to a hospital in less than eight minutes but didn't survive.
The raid was recorded by a crew from the police reality show, "The First 48." The jury saw short bits of video Tuesday.

Yields: 1 dozen
Oven Temp: 225
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 1 teaspoon(s) white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- 6 large egg whites, room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
- 2 cup(s) sugar
- 2 cup(s) crème fraîche
- 1 container(s) (6-ounce) raspberries, halved if large
- Vegetable oil cooking spray, for baking cups
- Gel-paste food coloring in Tulip Red sugarcraft.com
- Raspberry Curd
- Preheat oven to 225 degrees F. Line every other cup of 2 nonstick 12-cup muffin tins with baking cups; coat with cooking spray. Whisk egg whites, vinegar, vanilla, and salt with a mixer on medium-high speed until frothy. Add 1 3/4 cups sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating for 1 minute after each addition, making sure the sugar dissolves. Beat until stiff, glossy peaks form. Mix in 6 drops food coloring.
- Transfer mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a plain coupler (no tip), and pipe into prepared baking cups, about 2 inches above rims, finishing with a peak in the centers. Bake, rotating halfway through, 3 to 3 hours and 20 minutes. (Cupcakes should be completely dry on the outside but still soft in the middle. A toothpick inserted horizontally at base of top should have moist but cooked crumbs attached.) Transfer cupcakes in baking cups to wire racks; let cool completely.
- Beat crème fraîche and remaining cup sugar in a clean mixer bowl on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Carefully slice off tops of cupcakes using a serrated knife. (Run the knife just above the liner and slowly work your way to the center.) Top each cupcake with 2 tablespoons raspberry curd, a few raspberries, and 2 tablespoons crème fraîche mixture. Replace tops, and serve immediately.

Teavana Is A Specialty Retailer Offering More Than 100 Varieties Of Premium Loose-leaf Teas, Authentic Artisanal Teawares And Other Tea-related Merchandise. (Photo: Business Wire)
Just as Starbucks pioneered a new retail experience for coffee and espresso, the company's acquisition of Teavana provides the opportunity to do the same within the rapidly growing $40 billion global tea category. In calendar 2013, Starbucks will integrate its unique assets – including its leading position in social and digital media, its ten million member global loyalty program, card and mobile payment platforms – with the Teavana customer experience to expand Teavana's current mall-based store footprint with a comprehensive design strategy that will include new Teavana neighborhood locations in markets across North America and around the world. Teavana recently opened its first store in the Middle East in partnership with Starbucks existing joint venture partner Alshaya, and has plans to enter new, high-consumption tea markets around the world in the years ahead.
Starbucks investment in Teavana is matched by its commitment to continue to grow the Tazo business – giving Starbucks a two-tiered market position for tea. Starbucks plan is to define a new elevated platform of tea experience and education, and for both the Teavana and Tazo brands to grow and complement one another while at the same time elevating the entire category through a combination of expertise and assets.
"The acquisition of Teavana supports our growth strategy to innovate with new products, enter new categories, and expand into new channels of distribution," said Jeff Hansberry, president, Channel Development and Emerging Brands for Starbucks, who will assume leadership of the new subsidiary. "Evolution Fresh, La Boulange and now Teavana demonstrate how Starbucks will add brands that strengthen our core offering and create a rich ecosystem of experiences with shared values, mutual efficiencies and complementary characteristics, thus forming tangible examples of the success of the Starbucks Blueprint for Growth and a differentiated health and wellness offering in the marketplace."
Starbucks has entered into a merger agreement with Teavana to acquire Teavana for an aggregate acquisition price of approximately $620 million in cash and expects the acquisition to be accretive to earnings by approximately $0.01 per share in fiscal year 2013, based off of the previously announced earnings targets. Teavana stockholders of record will receive $15.50 per share in cash in the merger which will result in Teavana becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Starbucks. Stockholders of Teavana holding approximately 70% of the outstanding shares of common stock have approved the merger agreement by written consent, and the closing is expected to occur by year end, following receipt of regulatory clearances.

ESPN 300 DE Jason Hatcher makes call
By Dave Hooker
After weeks of speculation involving USC, Louisville and Kentucky, ESPN 300 defensive end
Jason Hatcher
has made up his mind heading into signing day.
The former USC commit will sign with Kentucky, Hatcher's mom, Donna, confirmed to ESPN RecruitingNation.
"He really liked the coaches," said Donna Hatcher. "They're really passionate to turn things around at that program."
Hatcher is the sixth prospect to decommit from the Trojans, joining
Eddie Vanderdoes
Kylie Fitts
Sebastian LaRue
Max Redfield
Eldridge Massington
Rated the nation's No. 14 defensive end and No. 182 prospect in the ESPN 300, the 6-foot-2, 240-pounder will sign with the Wildcats at 3 p.m. ET tomorrow during a ceremony at Trinity High School in Louisville, Ky.
Donna Hatcher said her son liked the Kentucky's defensive plan and the fact that it's close to home.
Despite committing to USC earlier, the family determined that travel was a negative aspect of his commitment.

The Road to Mordor: Will the instance finder take off? {Massively}
Apr 2nd 2012 6:47AM @MMOaddict
Having used WoW's Dungeon Finder for some time, the cross realm population results in almost instant dungeons for Tank and Healer and 5 to 15 min on average for DPS. The dungeons drop gear and give valor points which can be accumulated for more gear and they of course suffer from the usual symptoms of pugs - sometimes its bad and sometimes it's good. But even with the amount of heroics available in WoW it still gets old after a time and the gear is only ment to prepare you for rading. Unfortunately 10 and 25 person raiding usually requires a guild and planning so most players were stuck with heroics and an occasional raid pug when the raids got nerfed enough.
However, Blizzard then added Random Raid Finder which allows people with a base level of gear to participate in the raid content with a group of 25. Yes, it's detuned from the normal and heroic modes, so people without a voice server from disparate realms might have a chance at succeeding and the gear drops of the 8 bosses were better than heroics. It also functions as a substitute for heroics as it also awards valor points. More importantly it's allowed a huge segment of the player base to enjoy the final raid - something they never had before. Of course, some nights it's more like finding out how many ways idiots can use to wipe, but for the most part it;s fun and when you are familiar with it, you can actually relax a bit and enjoy the scenery. It does get a little boring runnning it twice a week (more than that and you only get money rather than drops or valor) but since Mists will bring another 3 Raid Finder raids as well as scenarios and challenge dungeons, it's a promise of good things to come.
Given my experience I'd have to say cross server dungeons, raids and scenarios are a great idea.
The Dragon Soul -- a post-mortem {WoW}
Apr 2nd 2012 1:15AM As an old English teacher and a voice-over artist, I must admit I wince everytime Deathwing says "I have been busy in my absence". It should be DURING my absence ;-) IN my absence is used to describe things that happened while you were absent.
Not that I'm nitpicking ;-)

The Light and How to Swing It: 4 Dragon Soul tips to make your DPSers love you {WoW}
Mar 25th 2012 7:09PM How about DPS making healers love them?
Use some damage mitigating cooldowns at the appropriate time, rather than relying on healers to save you - they might need their mana later. I heal as druid, disc, holy and pally, so when I play my DPS toons, I make sure I use available damage mitigation cooldowns when appropriate.
If there's a stomp, an elementium bolt or any damage you can see coming, try and reduce it. For a mage, a mana shield and a mage ward will reduce your damage, barkskin on the druid, various on the pally and so it goes. When you see ice raining from the sky, I know it's not fire, but don't stand in it anyway.
Oh and that lightwell isn't just there for decoration.
Yes it's going to decrease your DPS fractionally if you try and look after yourself a little more, but a dead DPS or a wiped raid will decrease it even more.
Blue Posts: New WoW comic strip, I remember when, "DK" {WoW}
Mar 20th 2012 11:06PM I remember when boomkins dropped a few DOTS, a Starfall and a Hurricane, threw Barkskin on and everything died while we chuckled maniacly. Now all I have is some magic mushrooms, a Starfall which is more like throwing rice, a Hurricane that uses nearly all my mana and a slow ping pong game called Eclipse.
We were gods once, now we just look silly. (or maybe we always have ;-) ) Never mind, it lead me to healing ;-)
Mists of Pandaria tries to breathe new life into an old World of Warcraft {Joystiq}
Mar 19th 2012 10:36AM Take all the potshots you want, because WoW is a moving target.
I've played since classic where the only game was questing, some dungeons and a raid and all I saw was the questing as the end game was only the province of the very few. After 7 years I now have a game that offers me multiple ways to enjoy myself and keeps constatntly improving. Dungeon Finder gave everyone a chance to participate in 5 person dungeons and Raid Finder let the majority experience 25 person raiding and see Deathwifn destroyed/ PvP offers world, arena or battlegrounds and the rated versions suit the more hardcore.
Yes it gets boring before the next xpac and Raid Finder definitely has its highs and lows, but all I've seen is improvement. Yes, I've tried other MMOs that used other lore and mechanics,, but for the most part they're strangely empty or highly instanced or their end game is non existent. Some even like the upcomimg GW2 lack a role I like to play - healer. They essentially lack depth and that's what WoW has, simply from being around for that long and having a dedicated team of artists, designers and programmers interested in improving the game experience. Let's also acknowledge the good idea of using lua for the UI, which has generated so many good user developed mods that lead to improvements in the core game UI.
Yes Blizzard makes mistakes and hindsight is the only perfect science, but they seem to learn from them and MoP reflects that.
So now I get a new continent, 7 new zones with great looking art, better questing, new class, new races, new NPCs, new talent system, new batttlegrounds, scenarios I can do with 2 friends or with 24 of my guild, new heroic dungeons, new raids (3 new Dungeon Fiinders) and challenge mode dungeons with levelled gearing. Also for those inclined, we have Pokemon and Farmville, new achievements, new pets, new mounts etc. What's not to like? ;-)
I like WoW and am looking forward to MoP. You can vote me down now ;;-)
Breakfast Topic: Are sexy transmog sets OK in your raid group? {WoW}
Mar 17th 2012 8:03PM The limits of my worrying about fashion is to occasionally buy a shirt to match my gear or not display a helmet. I only notice it on the character screen, as my camera is too far out in actual fights to distinguish detailed outfits. I've never transmogged and I identify too much with my toons to have a female, but I realise I may be in a minority. As for objecting to clothing, considering some of the looks of my undead, troll and orc guildies, skimpy clothing isn't really going to make a difference ;-)
However, yesterday when I stumbled upon guildies playing dressups with their female toons to get a "sexy" raid together (started by one of our female members), saying that heroics and DF were too boring, I began to pray MoP comes soon ;-)
Spiritual Guidance: Prayer of Healing and secondary stats for Mists of Pandaria healers {WoW}
Mar 12th 2012 8:35PM I have four healers (pally, druid, disc, holy) and I find the differences fun. I must admit I already use Holy Nova as a subsitute for Circle of Healing when I'm on my Disc. It does less heals, shorter range, not really a smart heal, but it does proc Divine Aegis, costs less mana and generates no threat. I'd be happy with it being upgraded slightly to be on a par with Circle, but I am glad Prayer of Healing is sticking around, as I always fall back to it when a few raid members need heals and it also procs Divine Aegis from memory.
In fact, I find the two priests and the druid to be very similar, enough so I can map similar spells to the same Ctrl/Alt/Shift mouse clicks (I use Clique and raid frames), but the pally is very different with directional healing and the Holy Power mechanic and lack of HOTs. Do we need more separation between the priests? I'm not really sure as currently my playstyle with disc and holy is different with disc concentrating more on the tank and holy on the raid. Although both can perform either function, I still prefer disc when I am responsible for tanks and holy for raid.
Anyway glad to know POH will be left alone ;-)
Is PvP gear good enough for heroics? {WoW}
Mar 5th 2012 7:03PM This isn't rocket science. PvP gear at the same level as PvE lacks a secondary stat. but it has all the primary stats. I may notice my lack of hit or crit or haste as a DPS, but I'm happy to use PvP gear as a healer because Int and Spirit are my main concerns. It's also not about equal iLevels. If I only have a 359 epic for a slot, I'm definitely going to replace it with 390 PvP gear (or higher with conquest points) to max my primary stats and I'll relace it with 397 PvE gear when it drops or I can afford it.
The other thing is availability. I was stuck with only a blue helm on a healer for some time, but it only took around 3-4 hours to get the honor necessary to purchase a 390 helm. Back last patch I tested a full 371 PvP set against my best 359 and some 378 gear set. With PvP I had more heals at a slightly slower rate and with PvE I had less heals with more haste - not enough to make any dofference.
Finally it's about access. If some PvP gear gets me into an heroic or LFR then it gives me an opportunity to upgrade that gear. People seem to think that a PvP choice has something to do with skill - it doesn't. There are plenty of players in LFR and heroics decked out in high level PvE gear who don't or can't play well and I'll always prefer a skilled player whether they are in PvE gear or not.
How to heal in Battlegrounds {WoW}
Feb 23rd 2012 10:18PM Learn to heal in battlegrounds. There's no better place to get comfortable with your spells and your UI. Better yet, people are usually too busy to worry about or notice your mistakes and you don't have to worry about getting kicked because some tank wearing tissue paper armor thinks you can't heal.
Most dungeons and certainly RF are a breeze to heal after coping with the chaos of battlegrounds. So if you do want to try healing, head for the bgs first ;-)

TD-Complete Submission
What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.15 / 5.00 4,328 ViewsThe premier episode of Peter Godly.
Peter teaches David an important lesson about Exodus 35:2 - With a .45 automatic.
2nd Episode available at http://www.newgrounds.co
Don't make me smite you!
So funny! Jesus christ thats good! It's now number 2 in my favorites jolly good show.
It's funny....I guess. I realize that some people find humor at the expense of religous fanatics funny, but at the same time, it's not so. The only part I thought was worth mentioning was the "Don't make me smite you." part. That was mad funny. Other than that, don't you think that someone who was that reverent to God would be against...ya know...slaughtering his fellow man? I realize its a satire, but you could have picked something a little more funny.
Anyways. The REAL reason I wrote this review (I usually reserve reviews for submissions worth my time) is the kid before me. Sunday IS the seventh day of the week (at least for most christian groups [Saturday is the 7th for Seventh Day Adventists]). The reason YOU'RE confused is because the calendar has Sunday first on the list. As far as what day is officially the last day of the week, no one can really say with authority. What if I believed that Wednesday was the seventh day? You couldn't PROVE me wrong, it's never been officially declared.
P.S. I'm not christian, so don't accuse me of being a bible thumper. I don't even believe in God per se. I'm Augnostic ^ ^
El problemo?
Sunday = 1st day of the week
Saturday = 7th
you said the 7th day when they were talking about sunday, i know it feels like the last day and monday feels like the first butcha got that wrong! kinda annoyed me
funny flash though, 5/5
Well, I'd to agree the boar would have been considered an unholy animal.
Nice joke in the flash animation though. It's actually sad that some people do take the bible that literally.
Works of fiction. . . that were political constructs within a social context.

Video Lesson Recaps are available for purchase in the webstore for a nominal fee.
$10 for Juniors, $20 for Adults.
SwingPlane was started out of a philosophy of "Seeing is Believing". So many golfers struggle with getting better because they don't know what is causing their swing fault. By using high-speed cameras and Swing Analysis software, the Golfer can now "See" what they are actually doing. From here, they can begin to correct themselves and start shooting lower scores.
Jason Blonder - PGA Class A Professional
Jason Blonder Bio
Jason Blonder is a PGA Class A Golf Professional that works out of Ashbrook Golf Course, and The Learning Center at Galloping Hill in Union County, NJ. Jason has been a Golf Instructor at Private Clubs in Miami, New York, and California. Most recently Jason was a Golf Instructor at Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA. He has had the privilege to receive tutelage from Top 100 PGA Instructors such as David Leadbetter, Michael Hebron, David Pelz, Annika Sorenstam, Bob Rotella, and Michael Jacobs.
Jason's philosophy on the full swing entitles working first and foremost on solid fundamentals (Grip, Posture / Head Movement, Arm Position, Aim / Alignment, and Impact). From their it is player dependent based on what we see in your swing that can become more effective. The short game philosophy that I teach mainly revolves around David Pelz, and Bob Rotella. The technique is most similar to Phil Mickelson's approach. Short game, especially putting is where you will always find how to consistently shoot in the 70's.
Consistency in the full swing first starts with solid fundamentals. The 2nd part of my philosophy stems from an impact centric ideology. I don't believe in making major swing changes other then helping the student to understand the nature of striking, and how direction is controlled. All lessons are instructed on Green Grass weather permitting.

The easyJet Philosophy "You Screwed Up, You Trusted Us"
I posted recently on a really spectacularly bad customer service experience I had at the hands of easyJet. It's just two posts down if you want some detail, but essentially I paid for priority boarding and didn't get it. I complained and asked for a refund. I finally heard back from them with regard to my complaint. Their answer: No. My interpretation/summary "You Screwed Up, You Trusted Us." I find the letter (see below) almost comical, and will post it here for your comments. Am I crazy or what? Are they really saying they are not able to guarantee a service that I PAID FOR? I understand taking a risk in Vegas…I don't quite get it here. I'll take a
