Palestinian Arrested for Alleged Collaboration with Israel
Palestinian police arrested a Palestinian man Monday for suspected collaboration with Israel after he opened fire toward the Jewish West Bank settlement of Gilo, provoking an Israeli response, a security source said.
"The suspect opened fire while the Israeli central regional commander-in-chief General Yitzhak Eitan was in the settlement with an Israeli television crew," the Palestinian security source told AFP.
"Palestinian police immediately arrested the suspect, who was found in the village of Beit Jala, near Bethlehem. Questioning revealed that he was collaborating with the Israeli occupying forces," he added.
"He admitted that the incident was provoked in cahoots with the Israelis so that they could respond with retaliatory fire on Beit Jala", the source said.
The provocative firing had brought "an immediate response from the Israeli army which opened fire with shells on Beit Jala."
Witnesses said that Israeli tanks and helicopter gunships fired rockets and shells on Beit Jala in response to Palestinian fire on Gilo.
Israeli military spokesman Yarden Vatikai strongly denied the use of helicopters and rocket fire on Beit Jala.
"This information is false, there was no use of helicopters nor rockets, just one or two shells," the spokesman told AFP.
At least two people were injured and several buildings damaged by Israeli missiles, according to witnesses and hospital sources.
The army announced Monday that it was encircling Beit Jala following the overnight shooting on Gilo and set up roadblocks to prevent "armed elements" entering the area.
"We have the green light to react with all the means at our disposal to these attacks against Gilo," the commander of Israeli forces in the sector, General Marcel Aviv, told army radio – GAZA CITY (AFP)

Someone is going to be livid. Battleforge, EA's card-trading, deck-based online RTS – which was a full-price game a couple of months ago – is now free to play. (The server is taking a pounding at the moment, and it's achingly slow.) Anyway you can now get the full game, with two full decks, and full access to all content since release, for nothing. You have to level up in both PvE and PvP before you can enter full trading stakes, but that's a whole lot of game for free. As an RTS Battleforge is slightly cumbersome, especially in PvE, but I can't fault the balance or possibilities for deck-construction. Being able to build an army with the cards you've meticulously scraped together is surprisingly rewarding. It's a genuinely interesting experiment, and I hope the move to a free-to-play model brings in a few more people who might get a kick out of that sort of thing.

In a letter to the director of the St. Petersburg International Film Festival that has since been publicly posted on GLAAD's website, Prison Break star Wentworth Miller came out of the closet and declined to attend due to Russia's now notorious anti-gay laws.
"Thank you for your kind invitation," Miller wrote. "As someone who has enjoyed visiting Russia in the past and can also claim a degree of Russian ancestry, it would make me happy to say yes...However, as a gay man, I must decline."
Miller, who also wrote the screenplay for Stoker, released earlier this year, then added, "I am deeply troubled by the current attitude toward the treatment of gay men and women in the Russian government. The situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly."

Oncodesign is teaming up with Banook Central Imaging, which specializes in the centralized reading of medical images, with the goal of expanding the use of new approaches in pharmacoimaging. The partnership will aim to provide clinical researchers with new biomarkers and validated image analysis protocols, and the partners say they expect to share expertise, co-promote joint activities, and jointly engage in scientific collaboration to standardize image acquisition and analysis protocols in early clinical phases.
The partnership between Oncodesign and Banook Central Imaging, the firms say, will help to guide a compound from research laboratory to patient through the pursuit of greater consistency in the imaging protocols used during the development cycle. The first phase of this partnership will last three years. First results are expected by early 2014.
"As well as conducting preclinical proofs of concept, we have a long tradition of striving to provide our clients with tools for improving the characterization of their molecule's therapeutic potential, to expedite clinical trials in humans," said Philippe Genne, Ph.D., CEO and founder of Oncodesign, in a statement. "In the coming weeks, our partnership with Banook Central Imaging will help us to provide our clients with practical solutions, ensuring that the measure of efficacy of anticancer therapies is attainable from one phase of development to the next."

Confirmed: Google's Expandable Knowledge Graph Test
Alex Chitu reports Google is testing a new feature for the Google Knowledge Graph. The new feature is a way to show an expanded version of the knowledge graph in the top of the search results.
Currently, when you search in Google and the knowledge graph comes up, it shows you up to five related people, books, albums, movies and so on. If you want more, you are out of luck. But with this test, Google is adding an "explore more" more link that gives you a lot more related topics to scroll through right at the top of the page.
Here is a picture:
As you can see, you can use the arrows on each side to scroll through more related people or topics.
I personally do not see this feature being tested and I've asked Google for a comment on this test.
Postscript: A Google spokesperson confirmed this as a test telling us "Google is always experimenting with new features to improve the search experience."

To be eligible for our Services, you must be at least 18 years old. You further represent and warrant to us that if you are an individual and you open an Account with us that you are not acting on behalf of an undisclosed principal or a third party beneficiary.
Before being able to use the Service we have to perform mandatory customer verification. For that we may ask for photographic evidence of your identity such as a copy of your passport. It is possible to provide this evidence through a number of methods including fax and email.

TransferWise reserves the right to refuse to accept any new user or any transaction at its discretion.
TransferWise makes reasonable endeavors to match transactions at exchange rates aligned to the mid-market rate at the global currency markets. TransferWise is relying on aggregated third party information sources and we do not guarantee that the rates match any particular benchmark source at any given time. TransferWise is not liable in any way if the target currency after the exchange is less than anticipated as a result of changes in the global currency markets.
TransferWise does not take any margin or spread on the exchange rate, hence there are no buy and sell rates. The rate that you get is exactly the same rate as your counterparty.
You have the ability to protect yourself from market volatility by setting the Limit Rate, the lowest exchange rate at which your currency will be converted.

Transfer the full invoiced amount in source currency on the TransferWise clearing bank account by bank transfer (see "Bank Transfers" section). If it is aFixed Target payment order, then the invoiced value equals the required source currency if exchanged at your specified Limit Rate. The excess deposit, which is the difference between the invoiced value (your paid deposit) and the effective source currency requirement, is refunded to your specified source currency account after your order is matched.
If for any reason your payment is cancelled or refused, then your deposit will be returned to your bank account.
The upper transaction limit for payments is 1 000 000 GBP or equivalent. The maximum amount of currency accepted for exchange varies dynamically based on market conditions. There is no lower limit.
All EUR payments to TransferWise have to be made as Single European Payment Area (SEPA) payments with the "shared" fees option. TransferWise makes all outgoing EUR payments through SEPA with the "shared" option. Your specified recipient account must support receiving SEPA payments.
All GBP payments must originate from a UK bank or building society. TransferWise makes GBP payments through the "UK Faster Payments" scheme where possible or alternatively through BACS.
You may be liable for an additional administration charge if the account numbers or the recipient name you have provided are incorrect.
In case your bank charges you for receiving of payments you shall be liable for paying these.
TransferWise may refuse the payment order, if we cannot match the user's name and address as provided to TransferWise to your bank account or credit card details. In this case you may be liable for an administration charge, which will be deducted from your deposit.
You are responsible for ensuring the payment details you provide are accurate. Once payment instructions have been executed by TransferWise, transactions cannot be reversed and TransferWise will not be liable in any way for any loss you suffer as a result of a transaction being carried out in accordance with your instructions.
In the unlikely event that you notice an error in either the payment sent or received as a result of using the Services, then you should immediately notify us at firstname.lastname@example.com. If you become aware that you have received a payment over and above what you were expecting, you must immediately notify us of this so that arrangements can be made for you to immediately return any overpayment.

Any administrative charges from the settlement banks or the receiving banks will be deducted from your payment amount. In addition, TransferWise admin charges may specifically apply in the following scenarios:
from EUR | from GBP | |

Day 3 (Friday)
"Spend the afternoon, you can't take it with you."
—Anne Dillard
I woke up to the chill of dawn, but soaked in sweat, with beads still forming in my forehead, my hands clutching my chest for breaths. What I had last night didn't feel like sleep at all.
It was still dim, so I went back to sleep. In the room, the heat stood like invisible walls closing in on me, but then turned into icicles at dawn. I was freezing and sweating. The remnants of the nightmare still stuck in my head like grains in the corners of the teeth the tongue can't reach.
After I finished my coffee, I went to the port, my favorite place here. It was a ten-minute walk from the house. Looking at the sky, no wonder it was cold. The sun was still nowhere to be found. From the way it rained last night, I thought that it might rain too this morning. The sea breeze lulled me into sleepwalking. When I got near the end, the changes started to register: The trees looked either dead or dying. The remaining leaves were under the mercy of the gray sky. Last year, their bushes were a thick green, and when you come close, you can even hear little birds singing inside.
I saw one that looked like it was inches away from being ripped off. All the trees were standing as if off-balanced, their almost empty branches struggling to grow back what was lost. I thought again about how much damage that bitch Yolanda had done. The ground seemed to have lost its lively color, as if grieving for the trees. The lampposts were destroyed too, most had missing light bulbs. All of them nothing but dead pieces of metal. Even the stone benches which were seriously heavy to lift were thrown during the typhoon.
On my way back to the house, it was only then that I noticed how much trees were destroyed after the typhoon. The thick foliage were now gone. The island life I used to experience had changed. I wasn't even able to eat a lot of fruit and fish throughout my stay, as the whole island was still recovering from the ravage of Yolanda. From what I've heard, only one died, an old lady who wasn't able to run away in time from a falling tree. But still, the damage to the trees and properties were large splinters to the heart. Bit by bit, one by one, time will pluck them out.
That afternoon, the weather got better, so I borrowed a bike from my relatives. Last year, I biked around the island, passing around 12 or 13 barangays, from Lower Poblacion to Cawit and back, which, in total, was approximately 24 kilometers. And that was done from 9 am to around 3 pm under the scorching summer sky. Had I known the symptoms of a heatstroke, I can say I almost had one. I was just using an old bike, even minus the brakes, on typical island rough roads, which gets rougher the deeper I enter the heart of the island. It would still be tomorrow when I'd do it again, so I spent the afternoon getting ready for the next day. Along the way, I was starting to feel my skin burning from the inside; my skin became so sensitive that it even stings when I sweat. I thought I got it from Danao Port where I was in a long line waiting for the gate to open for the pump boat, with the sun above and a few minutes away from its zenith.
Along the way, I found out that the school was in ruins, including the rooms that were newly constructed. Quite ironic because the new rooms were completely destroyed, whereas the decades-old ones seemed to look almost untouched at first glance. The rusty roofs and the creaking floors and windows, all of them were almost intact. Talking about wear and tear. When I went near the white rooms, I was doubtless it was due to the substandard materials used. The dangers of it. It was painful to look at.
Afternoon was about ripe into a cool, refreshing dusk, so to welcome it and to end the really sad day, I ran back to the house and grabbed some beer, then reloaded my pack of cigarettes, but almost forgetting the essentials: the guitar, pen, journal, and book, as I was too excited get drunk there, write a poem of hope and recovery, read passages from Hemingway, play the guitar and sing my heart out to the grieving sea. But once I got there, an assault of wild sensations rushed into me and filled my guts. Then I noticed that my breathing had changed, like I was suddenly freed from something I could not name.
The afternoon brought the wounded dock back to life. Illuminated its lost blood. Colors I had not seen that morning caressed my eyes. They appeared as fresh as daylight. I was awed, stunned by unexpected feelings. I then ran to the building, the salty wind against my whole body, feeling the spirit of a child, an inexhaustible glow of a smile, and was once again freed from the learned loneliness and sterility of city life.
I went down around thirty minutes later, as the wind had gotten too cold and strong. I was having chills despite the beer. I was sitting now in the stone staircase which led down to the seawater. The sea was just a step away. The salty breeze cleared my lungs, leaving an aftertaste in each breath. The beer was not enough to warm me anymore, so I decided to finally lit a smoke for good measure and put it in my mouth. I lost my lighter the night before. Luckily, when I turned around, I saw a middle-aged passerby, with a cigarette hanging in his mouth. I looked at him as he passed by, and seeing the unlit stick in my mouth, he went to me and handed me his half-smoked stick. I offered him beer, to which he refused. He was an Iglesia. They don't drink beer, he said. But they were allowed to smoke. He was a carpenter from Bukidnon and was assigned here by their group to repair the roofs of their church. He then talked about how religion changed him. How God changed him. Then he told me he should be going,. We shook hands and said good-bye. The sun was falling down; the sky was getting shades darker; the temperature dropped gradually. Evening was approaching. I finished my cigarette and beer, then walked home. It was great afternoon.

LoginCritic Reviews for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
All Critics (206) | Top Critics (42) | Fresh (171) | Rotten (35) | DVD (3)
Even an ensemble cast of a very high pedigree can't overcome a plot that's been compacted into near-incomprehensibility.
"Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy," with its meticulous Cold War details and labyrinthine plot, is like a smoky 25-year-old single malt scotch whiskey. It hits you hard, but goes down smooth.
The movie is riveting in the exact sense of the word: We feel nailed to the screen in the impossible task of working out what is going on-let alone why it matters.
A masterful adaptation of John Le Carre's 1970s spy thriller about the secret British hunt for a high-ranking KGB mole.
For all those that look at the films of the golden age and chide that "they don't make them that way anymore", here's a fine example that a film can be fresh, intelligent, drawing from the past while carving out its own unique and very contemporary vision
Majestically directed, masterfully acted and brilliantly written, it's not just the best British film of the year but the best film of the year - full stop.
It's of massive benefit ... to have many of the best British actors carrying this dense, convoluted plot through its many twists and knots.
From watching the film, it ends up feeling like maybe reading the book should be a prerequisite, or perhaps viewing the five-hour miniseries would be a good idea.
A very gripping, brilliantly directed character driven genre film, with top class performances from a flawless ensemble cast headed by a perfect performance from Gary Oldman.
Alfredson's marvelous precision in showing how an agent might do difficult espionage work is as thrilling as any overblown James Bond setpiece.
an ultra-realistic view of the spy game
With its hushed and methodical approach - similar to that of Smiley himself - the movie rolls on toward its big reveal with workmanlike exactitude.
The film has intrigues, shootings, infidelities and clues -- lots of clues -- which we ponder, along with the poker-faced Smiley, played with Oscar-nominated perfection by Gary Oldman.
unfolds with maximum perplexity, ensuring that we will never, despite being able to grasp the stakes and gravity of individual scenes, be sure exactly what is going on.
Outstanding performances and fascinating visual design are somewhat marred by a slow pace and a dry narrative.
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy can assert a serious claim to be the best espionage film ever made.
like watching a large candle burn down to nothing and then wondering why there weren't any fireworks. Maybe I was expecting too much? Considering the cast and the subject matter it may be a case of too much of a good thing
No es una pel�cula "agradable" ni "entretenida"; es una pel�cula inc�moda y cerebral apenas perturbada por peque�as alteraciones en sus personajes. Como las de George Smiley, en la brillante composici�n de Gary Oldman.
full review at Movies for the Masses
There has always been this ultra-cool tendency in British spy movies, but I don't ever remember seeing one this emotionless. There probably have been some, but few have combined emotional detachment with such technical mastery of filmmaking techniques.
Audience Reviews for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
It's slow, complex, stimulating and uncompromising; basically an average movie-goer's nightmare. I love that.
MoreSuper Reviewer
An ex spy for MI6 is called out of retirement to uncover a Russian double agent in the top echelons of their organisation. The one thing that can be said in favour of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is that it reeks of quality. The exceptional ensemble cast present what can only be described as an acting master class and the direction, photography and production design are all top notch. The problem with the film lies with its script, but that's not to say that it's badly written; quite the contrary in fact. The dialogue is smart, the themes sophisticated and characters well drawn. The trouble lies with the fact that this Cold War world of secrecy, back stabbing and betrayal seems so alien in the internet age that it's quite difficult to involve yourself in the dense, convoluted story. I couldn't connect emotionally with any of these cold-hearted and detached individuals and the fact of the matter was that I didn't really care who the mole was. Technically marvellous but those looking for a cinematic quick fix will find Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy too much like hard work.
MoreSuper Reviewer
If for one second you think that this adaptation of John LeCarre's seminal novel taking place during the 60's cold war is not relevant today, then you need to re-examine your thinking. The Spy business is alive and well, and good information is just as all important now as it was then (though the villain, for the time being may have changed).
That being said, this is a very dense, expertly filmed (every frame has context and meaning), vision that somehow is just too British Buttoned Down for it's own good. Director Tomas Alfredson moves the film along at a slow but steady pace - giving you time to contemplate all the clues and red herrings, just as the main character George Smiley (in a magnificently controlled performance by Gary Oldman), tries to work it all out.
The film starts out with a bang - a BSS agent enters the flat of BSS head man "Control" (the always wonderful John Hurt). Hurt tells the agent that he is going "off the books" to "bring over" a Hungarian Colonel who is dangling the ultimate carrot: the identity of a mole within the BSS. Of course, since there is a high level mole in place according to this source, Control cannot let anyone else within the agency know of this agent's mission.
The agent arrives in Budapest and makes contact with a man acting as a front for the Hungarian Colonel. Alfredson does a wonderful job of allowing the camera to follow the agents' gaze: taking in all the people hanging out in and around the outdoor caf� where the meet was scheduled. This paranoid viewpoint, where anyone and everyone could be a plant or enemy agent is wonderfully filmed and just one example of how every frame of the film is planned, staged and with meaning.
Later, Control steps down (in somewhat of a disgrace) and mentions to the "inner circle" that ageing agent Smiley is retiring as well. Now that Smiley is "outside" the circle, he is now free to investigate said circle and try to ferret out the mole.
So what comes next is a byzantine and complex puzzle with Smiley taking it all in and processing what it all means. There is no James Bond action here, just a very smart, minimalistic man pursuing the threads of a conspiracy. He looks at several of the inner circle, peopled by such European stalwarts as Colin Firth and Cairan Hinds. Firth in particular is a joy to watch as he seemingly floats above the actions around him with his winning smile.
In my mind what prevents this film from becoming the standard for all spy films is that somehow the sense of urgency is lacking. It is as if there is no life or death consequence and while it would be nice if the mole is discovered, one gets the sense that it isn't a deal breaker (which is absurd, for it indeed is - as one spy tells the other "everything we think is gold is shit"). Perhaps it is just this - the action is all words and wordplay - nothing wrong with that (as I'd wish most Hollywood films used a bit more discretion in the shoot em up dept.) - but the tension level never seems to heat up to the boiling point. Regardless, this is a very intelligent film that's beautifully crafted. It assumes that you have a degree of brain power, so it doesn't spoon feed you the clues on a platter... which is so reminiscent of Brit spy films of the 60's and 70's like The Ipcress File and The Spy Who Came In From The Cold.

A superior and utterly absorbing edge of your seat thriller that will knock you out of your seat. A masterpiece plain and simple. An instant classic of the spy genre. It`s The Godfather of spy films. A sharply stylish and sophisticated film that is just brilliant with its characters, story and film-making. It`s truly the thriller of the year. A wickedly entertaining and exhilarating movie that just shines with greatness. This is certainly the best picture of 2011. An explosive and mind-blowing movie that grabs you and dose not let go until the last shot. It`s unbelievably smart and lightning-paced. A intelligent, tension-packed, suspense-filled and pulse-pounding thrill-ride. An unforgettable and powerful film. The all-star cast is pitch perfect with amazing performances. Gary Oldman is superb, he gives a tour de force performance that truly deserves awards attention. Tom Hardy is terrific. Mark Strong is excellent. Toby Jones is electric. And that's just a few of the brilliant performances featured in this film with a dazzling dream cast. Director, Tomas Alfredson crafts his masterwork. A true must-see that will be talked about for years. An extraordinary and dark piece of work that will have you spellbound and compelled. You will leave your seat just as pleased with this film as you would with any shoot-em up action flick.

Imagination And TSMC Strengthen Technology Collaboration
KINGS LANGLEY, England and HSINCHU, Taiwan, March 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TSMC (TWSE:2330) (NYSE:TSM) and Imagination Technologies (LSE:IMG), a leading multimedia, processor, communications and cloud technologies company, today announced the next phase of their technology collaboration.
As part of this new phase of their relationship, Imagination will work closely with TSMC to develop highly optimised reference design flows and silicon implementations using Imagination's industry-leading PowerVR Series6 GPUs combined with TSMC's advanced process technologies, including 16-nanometer (nm) FinFET process technology.
Imagination and TSMC R&D teams will also work together to create fully characterised reference system designs, utilizing high bandwidth memory standards and TSMC's 3D IC technology capability to demonstrate new levels of system performance and capabilities while retaining all the essential characteristics of power, silicon area and small package footprint demanded by high volume mobile SoCs.
As GPUs increasingly dominate the area, power and performance of next generation SoCs and the options available to designers using advanced silicon processes become more complex, design flows and libraries need to be optimally tuned to enable design teams to achieve the best possible performance, power consumption and silicon area in ever more demanding timescales. To address these challenges, Imagination and TSMC are investigating how the characteristics of the latest processes, such as 16FinFET, influence the design of high performance IP-based SoCs. Says Hossein Yassaie, CEO of Imagination: "Many of our licensees rely on TSMC to provide them with leading edge low power, high performance silicon foundry capabilities. Through advanced projects initiated under this partnership, Imagination and TSMC are working together to showcase how SoCs will transform the future of mobile and embedded products. We are delighted to announce our strengthening relationship with TSMC, and look forward to seeing the fruits of these projects benefiting our many mutual customers."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Formula One world champion Sebastian Vettel will take to the streets of Berlin this weekend, as he celebrates his title success in front of his home fans. Vettel is expected to drive a Red Bull down the citys famous Fan Mile in front of the iconic Brandenburg Gate on Saturday, before journeying to Dusseldorf for this weekends Race of Champions.
I've always wanted to race through the streets of Berlin and on Saturday Ill actually get to do it! Vettel told his official website. We'll turn the area between the Brandenburg Gate and Yitzhak Rabin Street into a pit and put the pedal to the metal! This is just my way of saying thanks to all my German fans for their support and their dedication throughout the whole season.
Not everyone is able to see a Formula One racing car in action, so I think this is a great opportunity for everyone who wants to experience it. Besides the show run there will also be a drivers' parade, a stunt ride and the Red Bull Tourbus, so there should be something for everyone. I hope we'll have a great day and a spectacular weekend at the Race of Champions.
Since his championship win in Abu Dhabi earlier this month, Vettel has visited Red Bulls Austrian base in Salzburg and the teams UK factory in Milton Keynes to celebrate his success. Last Sunday the young German also found time to visit his home town of Heppenheim to meet and greet thousands of fans.

In common inbred mouse strains, hearing loss is a highly prevalent quantitative trait, which is mainly controlled by the Cdh23(753A) variant and alleles at numerous other strain-specific loci. Here, we investigated the genetic basis of hearing loss in non-inbred strains. Mice of Swiss Webster, CF-1, NIH Swiss, ICR, and Black Swiss strains exhibited hearing profiles characteristic of progressive, sensorineural hearing impairment. In particular, CF-1, Black Swiss, and NIH Swiss mice showed early-onset hearing impairment, ICR and Swiss Webster mice expressed a delayed-onset hearing loss, and NMRI mice had normal hearing. By quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, two significant QTLs were identified underlying hearing loss in Black Swiss mice: one QTL mapped to chromosome (chr) 10 (named ahl5, LOD 8.9, peak association 35-42 cM) and a second QTL localized to chr 18 (ahl6, LOD 3.8, 38-44 cM). Ahl5 and ahl6 account for 61% and 32% of the variation in the backcross, respectively. Cadherin 23 (Cdh23) and protocadherin 15 (Pcdh15), mapping within the 95% confidence interval of ahl5, bear nucleotide polymorphisms in coding exons, but these appear to be unrelated to the hearing phenotype. Haplotype analyses across the Cdh23 locus demonstrated the phylogenetic relationship between Black Swiss and common inbred strains.

As Nutcracker rehearsals ramp up, your muscles might be feeling all new types of soreness in all new kinds of places. One strategy to help ease the pain? Watermelon juice. Researchers recently found that people who drank watermelon juice before exercising felt less sore the next day than those who had a placebo. The reason is L-citrulline, a fairly uncommon amino acid that watermelon is loaded with. It has antioxidant properties that speed up the removal of lactic acid from your muscles, helping you recover more quickly. Some scientists even suspect that it may enhance athletic performance. The only catch is that it's most effective when consumed in unpasteurized watermelon juice—not by itself in a supplement. That sounds tasty enough to us! Take advantage now before watermelon season ends next month.

Scented Spa Day Pins
By: Heather Valentine
Take your favorite scent with you and create your own Scented Spa Day Pins from Heather Valentine. Easy sewing crafts have never looked (or smelled) this good. Use scraps from an old sweater and save yourself a trip to the craft or fabric store.
- Scraps of sweater or material
- Embroidery thread
- Lavender
- Pin
- Button/trims
Cut out 2 pieces of your basic shape. I used a heart and rectangle.
With straight stitch, machine stitch all around leaving a 1 1/2″ opening to fill. *Note: I used contrast thread here for fun.
Fill shape with lavender or other scented product. Stitch area closed.
With needle and embroidery thread, I added a simple running stitch all around the outside edge. Then I added a few fun trims.
Attach your pin to the back and you are all set.
For a comprehensive video tutorial of this project, check out How to Sew a Lavender Sachet.

(Otto Greule Jr/Getty Images)Mariners starter Taijuan Walker, the sixth-ranked prospect in baseball by MLB.com, won't throw the next week after tests showed inflammation in the bursa in his right shoulder, according to Mariners.com reporter Greg Johns.The 21-year-old went 1-0 with a 3.60 ERA in three starts last year as a late-season call up. The Shreveport, La., native also had a 2.93 ERA in 25 starts between Double-A Jackson and Triple-A Tacoma.He is expected to challenge for a spot in the Mariners' rotation this season.SI WIRE: Zack Greinke leaves spring debut in first inning"It's a little bit of a setback, yeah," said manager Lloyd McClendon, who added that he isn't sure if Walker will be ready for the start of the season. "But it is what it is and we just have to continue to move forward. The MRIs were clean and good. There's no structural damage. Everything is fine from that standpoint."Walker has been held back since the start of spring camp after arriving with soreness in his shoulder, according to Johns.The 6-foot-4, 210-pounder was the 43rd pick in the 2010 MLB draft."This guy, we're not just talking about 2014," McClendon said. "Hopefully we're talking about the next 15 years. We have to be cautious and we have to be smart. It's frustrating for him, but I think it's the best avenue to take. Err on the side of being cautious and continue to move forward with it."SI WIRE: David Wright says 90 wins 'good starting point' for Mets#Mariners top prospect Taijuan Walker shut down for 7 days with sore shoulder.

10th Session on March 15th, 18:30 CET. JOIN THIS CHAT BEFORE GAME!
Using EU III: Divine Wind. Patch: 5.1 Check sum: BJLT
This is the continuation of Vacca Foeda II. For those who wish to participate and enjoy the game's relaxed atmosphere, our only request is that upon signing your name for the game you are willing to commit to the vast majority of sessions, and accept that prior warning must be given if you know you are going to miss one. To join the game, simply post below with a selection of your five most preferable countries in order of preference. I will decide which countries need players the most. (Players known to be reliable will receive preferential treatment.)
This campaign's concept can be described as "friendly" and "semi-competitive". Essentially this means to me that the game is supposed to be fun most of the time for almost everybody. It is the difference between defeating your opponents and crushing them and between fair and crippling demands. Strive to dominate the game but do not smother it and give newbies and weaker nations a chance. Try to engineer the fall of the strongest players instead of kicking the ones that are already down. This may at times be a difficult balance to maintain but I find it well worth the effort. If this is not for you then you should maybe join one of the more ruthless campaigns out there.
On Thursdays, 18:30-22:30 CET

GM: Kommando23
Co-GM: Sorgenkind

Downloads Die, Apple Lives, Music Industry Suffers
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- At Billboard, Glenn Peoples makes a reasonable argument that digital music sales (downloads) are not dying by drawing a worthy distinction between album and individual track sales.
At the outset of his article, Peoples says The data should create the narrative, not the other way around. I argue he's doing exactly what he accuses other journalists of doing, but just to make his favored point. I'm one of the guys who, according to Peoples, misinterpreted what's happening with music consumption. I recently wrote an article citing a Rolling Stone blurb that didn't contain the context Peoples was looking for.
Fair enough. We could argue over what happened in the past and what's happening in the present all day and go absolutely nowhere. That's the unfortunate by-product of a multi-faceted argument dominated by a bunch of people with special interests or an insatiable desire to prove they're right.
Even if digital sales are doing well in the face of streaming's continued growth, the music industry should act like they're not. Haven't label executives and others who make up the music industrial complex studied their own history? Haven't they come to the realization that how things were last week, are today or will be five days from now means very little? It's the long-term that matters. You know, the Amazon.com (AMZN - Get Report) approach that works so well even if a stubborn core of bitter holdouts refuse to endorse it.
Consider my favorite Jeff Bezos quote that comes after a reporter's question:Q: Do you have a goal for when you can throttle back on expenses and become profitable?
Our strategy is very, very clear: We're focused on long-term returns for investors. And to throttle back on investment now would be shortsighted. When we have less opportunity, that will probably happen. But as long as we have lots of opportunity, we're going to continue to invest commensurate with that opportunity in a very disciplined and methodical way, but in a long-term context. To do anything else, we believe, is irrational.That exchange, by the way, took place in freaking 1999. About 427% ago. For the record, AMZN stock is up 427.3% since June 1, 1999 and a whopping 20,061% since going public. Crappy strategy, I know. Anyhow, as Bezos indicated more than 14 years ago, the Amazon strategy cannot work nor is it appropriate for every company. It works for Amazon because Bezos isn't fooling himself, his co-workers, his investors or the general public when he speaks of the long-term opportunity Amazon has. Contrast this to Reed Hastings who takes a similar perpetual startup approach at Netflix (NFLX - Get Report). Hastings makes a risky, unsubstantiated bet on Netflix's long-term potential; Bezos absolutely does not. I'm comfortable using the last 14 years as evidence to support my contention. That said, the music industry -- thanks in large part to Internet radio -- has massive long-term growth and diversification prospects. They're real. They're spectacular. And they're on par with Amazon's. So why waste your time clinging to the way things are today?

Lord of the Flies @ Theatre Institute at Sage, 2/7/13
By Michael Eck TROY – Piggy wants a meeting. Ralph wants to lie on the beach. And Jack wants to taste blood. When William Golding wrote "Lord of the Flies" in 1952, the world was a savage place. The concept of a group of stranded post-apocalyptic boys gone rogue on a remote island didn't seem […]

Green Day's American Idiot @ Proctors, 2/5/13
By Michael Eck SCHENECTADY – "Green Day's American Idiot" tells its story in a fractured way, with many shards being revealed at once.

Joe Lovano "Us Five" @ The Egg, 1/20/13
By Michael Eck ALBANY – Saxophonist Joe Lovano has a kinetic, aggressive sound, particularly on tenor.

But Coltrane, even at his angriest, […]

Event DetailsFor the Y, providing "every opportunity to reach farther" is a very real promise we make to this community. It means that your YMCA—an organization with the capacity and will to inspire positive and lasting social change—is pursuing a mission to do just that. So what does that mean for you?
It means reaching farther to help children and teens reach their full potential through value–based programs, including child care and educational programs, sports and activities, summer day camps, overnight camps, swim programs, teen leadership programs, events,
and clubs. Each opportunity builds skills, self-confidence, positive peer relationships—and unimagined successes.
It means providing every opportunity to help our members achieve their goals for peak health and well-being by offering unparalleled support, guidance, resources, and facilities. We know that our considerable expertise will lead hundreds to achieve their wellness goals and get on a path to a healthier life.
It means creating a community that reaches out to give back—helping our most vulnerable and deserving neighbors achieve their dreams for better lives. The YMCA's social service programs—including initiatives in education, health, character-building, cultural understanding, leadership, vocational training, the arts and more—inspire hope, create new opportunities for success and meaningfully change futures.
