Today's News: Our Take - Report: Lance Armstrong Considers Doping Admission
Months after being stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and receiving a lifetime ban from athletic competition, Lance Armstrong is reportedly considering admitting to using illegal performance-enhancing drugs and blood transfusions throughout his cycling career. The New York Times reports that Armstrong has told associates and anti-doping officials his plan in hopes of eventually getting his eligibility restored for triathlons.
Winter TV Preview: Must-see new shows
Armstrong's lawyer, Tim Herman, denied that the cyclist had reached out to U.S. Anti-Doping Agency chief executive Travis Tygart and David Howman, director general of the World Anti-Doping Agency. When asked about the possibility of his client confessing, Herman told the Times, "Lance has to speak for himself on that."
Armstrong had fought against doping accusations for more than a decade, but in August, the celebrated cyclist gave up his fight against the USADA, stating that he was "finished with this nonsense." Two months later, the USADA released its extensive report against Armstrong, which included detailed eyewitness testimony from teammates, email correspondence, financial records and laboratory analyses. After the report's release, Armstrong was stripped of his Tour titles, received a lifetime ban from all Olympic sports, resigned from his Livestrong charity and lost all his sponsors.
Returning Winter Shows: Where we left off
According to the Times, contributors to Livestrong have been pressuring the cyclist to come forward to help save the non-profit, but there are other legal issues complicating Amrstrong's possible admission. If Armstrong did dope, it would confirm that he is guilty of defrauding the government by violating his contract with the United States Postal Service cycling team, which outlines that doping would result in a breach of their agreement. In addition to the federal whistle-blower suit, Armstrong also currently faces two other civil lawsuits, as well as any possible perjury charges he might face if he confesses.
If Armstrong does admit to doping, it's possible that he will be eligible for a reduction on his lifetime ban, but it's unlikely it'd go lower than eight years, maybe four if he's lucky.

Here is a look at ETFs that currently offer attractive short selling opportunities. The ETFs included in this list are rated as sell candidates for two reasons. First, each of these funds is deemed to be in a downtrend based on the fact that it is trading below its 200-day and 50-day moving averages, which are popular indicators for gauging long-term and medium-term trends, respectively.
Second, each of these ETFs is also trading above its five-day moving average, thereby offering a near-term "sell on the pop" opportunity given the longer-term downtrend at hand. Note that this prospects list also features a liquidity screen by excluding ETFs with average trading volumes below the 100,000 shares mark. As always, investors of all experience levels are advised to use stop-loss orders and practice disciplined profit-taking techniques.

With George, Tom, and Abe having each won one of the first three presidents races at Nationals Park, and the snakebitten Washington Nationals coming into the evening on a 6-game skid, the question on the mind of Nats fans was whether they would see the end of somebody's losing streak tonight against the Florida Marlins.
Unfortunately, the luck of neither Teddy nor the team changed tonight, as Thomas Jefferson took the 4th inning contest to take the season lead, and our Nats suffered their fourth heartbreaking one-run loss just ten games into the season. After consecutive sweeps by the Cardinals and Marlins, the Nationals 3-game winning streak to start the season is a distance memory.
Friday night the Atlanta Braves come to Nationals Park for the final series of this homestand. Let's hope for a big turnout and an end to some losing streaks this weekend!

Megaupload's US attorney, Ira Rothken, has a succinct description of the US government case against his client: "wrong on the facts and wrong on the law."
The week has been a busy one for Rothken, a San Francisco Internet law attorney who has previously represented sites like isoHunt and video game studios like Pandemic. When I call, he's eating crab cakes and waiting for yet another meeting to start, but he has plenty of time to attack the government's handling of the Megaupload case.
In Rothken's words, the government is acting like a "copyright extremist" by taking down one of the world's largest cloud storage services "without any notice or chance for Megaupload to be heard in a court of law." The result is both "offensive to the rights of Megaupload but also to the rights of millions of consumers worldwide" who stored personal data with the service.
The best way to look at Megaupload, he says, is through the lens of Viacom's $1 billion lawsuit against YouTube—an ongoing civil case which Viacom lost at trial. (It is being appealed.)
For instance, Viacom dug up an early e-mail from a YouTube co-founder to another co-founder saying: "Please stop putting stolen videos on the site. We're going to have a tough time defending the fact that we're not liable for the copyrighted material on the site because we didn't put it up when one of the co-founders is blatantly stealing content from other sites and trying to get everyone to see it."
"Whatever allegations that they can make against Megaupload they could have made against YouTube," he says of the government. "And YouTube prevailed!" (Rothken made a similar case when he represented search engine isoHunt in 2010, saying it was just like Google.)
Under this view, Megaupload should have been served with DMCA takedown notices (the site did have a registered DMCA agent, as required by law, though not until 2009). If rightsholders believed that was insufficient, they should have conferred with Megaupload's US counsel (the company has retained US attorneys for some time before the current action). And if that wasn't satisfactory, a civil copyright infringement lawsuit should have been filed, one that would not have taken the site down first and asked questions later.
Instead, the government's willingness to pursue the case as an international racketeering charge meant "essentially only sticking up for one side of the copyright vs. technology debate." The result, Rothken says, is "terrible chilling effect it's having on Internet innovators" who feature cloud storage components to their business.
The US Department of Justice released a lengthy statement to the press detailing the charges against Megaupload, while New Zealand police publicly offered crazy details of their bid to arrest Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom (born Kim Schmitz). "Police arrived in two marked Police helicopters," said New Zealand Detective Inspector Grant Wormald at a press conference. "Despite our staff clearly identifying themselves, Mr. Dotcom retreated into the house and activated a number of electronic locking mechanisms. While Police neutralised these locks he then further barricaded himself into a safe room within the house which officers had to cut their way into. Once they gained entry into this room they found Mr Dotcom near a firearm which had the appearance of a shortened shotgun. It was definitely not as simple as knocking at the front door."
"James Bond tactics with helicopters and weaponry have a detrimental effect on society as a whole."
This sort of thing makes Rothken furious. Using "James Bond tactics with helicopters and weaponry, and breaking into homes over what is apparently a philosophical debate over the balance between copyright protection and the freedom to innovate, are heavy-handed tactics, are over-aggressive, and have a detrimental effect on society as a whole," he said. In addition, the raid was a reminder that bills like the Stop Online Piracy Act "ought not to ever be passed, because these tactics [the helicopters, etc.] are so offensive that if you take the shackles off of government, it may lead to more abuse, more aggression."
Rothken also suggested that the timing of the raid was suspicious; "over a two-year period, they happened to pick the one week where SOPA started going south."
I asked about specific allegations in the indictment, including the government's quotation of internal e-mails showing employees asking for and uploading copyrighted material. Rothken wouldn't address any specifics, but he did claim the government had engaged in some highly selective editing, choosing a few "bad communications" out of terabytes of seized data. It's as if one were to "judge the character of a person by the three worst things they ever did as a college student and ignored all the things they did as an adult."
For now, the case remains in New Zealand, where questions of bail and then extradition are being handled by local courts. Though the entire case could take a long while to wind its way to completion, Rothken concludes, "Megaupload believes strongly it's going to prevail."
Spin room
This is not a view that convinces either the US government or major copyright holders. Michael Fricklas, general counsel of Viacom and the man overseeing the company's litigation against YouTube, finds the Megaupload/YouTube comparison to be "quite a spin."
"Kim Dotcom paid uploaders who were also in it for the money, and knew about lots of specific infringement."
"The indictment shows that Kim Dotcom was deeply involved in every aspect of the site, designed the site to encourage infringement, helped specific users find pirated content and improve the piracy experience, paid uploaders who were also in it for money, and knew about lots of very specific infringement," he told me this afternoon. "Thus, even under YouTube's extreme view of the DMCA protections, the DMCA would provide no defense. Criminal and civil proceedings each have a different set of processes and outcomes, and are certainly not mutually exclusive. There are many times—such as in the case of Megaupload—where it is entirely appropriate for both types of action to take place."
A Department of Justice spokesperson told me that the government only goes after groups that show enough evidence of "willful" criminal conduct to take them beyond the realm of merely civil litigation, and that Megaupload certainly qualifies thanks to the same factors mentioned by Fricklas.
As for the timing of the arrests, the DOJ says it had nothing to do with the SOPA debate. After nearly two years of investigation involving many different countries, the indictment against Megaupload was returned by the grand jury investigating the group on January 5 of this year—almost two weeks before the big anti-SOPA protests captured the Web's attention. The arrests themselves—complete with their police helicopters and safe room in-breaking—took place shortly after New Zealand police obtained arrest warrants.
What the case may show more than anything else is the sheer disparity between the dueling worldviews involved. Was the Megaupload takedown an offensive assault on innovators who may have, on a few occasions, done something a tiny bit naughty—or was it a massive Mega-conspiracy worthy of an international police takedown?

It has been the oddest week. Monday started out playing musical cars with my daughter as we had used mine all weekend. She was on her way to work at 6:30 a.m. I pulled out and waited for her to pull out next, then I would back into the driveway as she went off to drive to the MAX for the rest of her trip into downtown.
I looked back and her headlights started flashing. Rolling down my window and backing up a bit, she got out of her car to tell me her battery was dead and her car wouldn't start. The mechanic where she'd recently had work done on the car mentioned that it was weak and suggested replacing it. There would be no more procrastinating. She ended up taking my car to the MAX and picking up a battery on her way home.
I must say, I was impressed with her tenacity to struggle with the bolts that held the battery in place; hunting for the tools she needed in the dark and cold to get the job done.
The next morning, I was cautious as she started her car after I pulled out to let her head to the MAX but off she went. I put mine back in the driveway. We are not allowed to park in the street which makes sense to me because they are narrow and emergency vehicles need easy access. Ten minutes later, my daughter was back in the driveway. What was wrong now? She got out of the car and came inside but she wasn't alone.
She witnessed a medium sized dog running around the streets of our neighborhood dragging its leash behind. What could have happened to its person? So, she pulled her car in ahead of the dog and called it to her. This sweet thing came willingly and once she had it in the car, she brought it home for me to figure out the next step as she hurried to catch the light rail.
I did what any dog mom would do, I fed her and spoke soft sweet words to her. She was curious about everything including the chunk of ham from which I had just cut a piece. She was tall enough to reach to top of the kitchen counter to retrieve it herself so I quickly put it back in the fridge and sat to post an ad in our neighborhood site with a fuzzy photo and my phone number.
She had no tags nor name attached and was not going to settle down so I quickly dressed and put her leash back on. After giving her a few moments to wander my tiny backyard, we hopped into my car and I began the search for someone searching.
It didn't take long after a couple of stops to ask a neighbor or two if they were missing a dog or knew of one, to find a car slowly driving up and down roads randomly. I flashed my headlights at the car and it stopped. A young man (by my standards) got out and came to my window on the passenger side. Dog was in the back seat. I asked if he was looking for a dog. He was. It was his parents' dog and her name was Goose! She jumped into the front seat as soon as she saw him and responded to her name. Goose was quite strong and I could see her easily pulling someone over in her playful puppiness. She had apparently seen something that made her run after it and off went the chase. Goose was finally back where she belonged and my daughter was relieved no humans were left lying in the street injured somewhere. Another rescue with successful results.
Is your week going according to plan or have you also had things pop up unexpectedly?
From my heart to yours,

Please. Do not fear the blocking. You will see and feel the difference, trust me. Do it for all lace crochet, do it for all wearables regardless of what fiber is in the yarn. I totally recommend wet blocking, but first you must be sure that the yarn is safely water washable. Check the yarn ball band/label/tag for washing care. If you don't grok those little hieroglyphics (fabric care symbols) you sometimes find in laceweight print at the bottom of a label, see here. When I first searched for and found this explanation, it musta been what it was like when archeologists found the Rosetta Stone. 🙂
(In all my years playing with yarn I have only met two that could not be water washed. One was a silk ribbon, which I lightly steamed. The other was linen paper yarn, which continues to languish in the stash. Don't ask what I was thinking when I took that one home!)
If it raises your comfort level to think of blocking as simply "hand wash, lay flat to dry", then that should be your mantra. Unless the pattern instructions tell you to leave any tails for whatever reason, weave in all the loose ends before blocking, so that the ends have the greatest opportunity to get locked into the fabric.
1) Dunk the project in a sink filled with cool water. You can add a drop of fragrant liquid wool wash or shampoo to the water first if you like, no rinsing needed. Get the piece totally wet. Avoid excessive wringing or twisting.
2) Drain the sink, press gently to remove as much water as you can. Either throw the piece in a washing machine and run a spin-only cycle, or roll the piece in towels to soak up as much moisture as possible. Sham Wow towels work great for this task, BTW.
3) Lay the damp piece on a roomy, flat, moisture tolerant surface, like a not-wood table or spare bed or clean floor covered with towels. If you have kids and/or pets I don't have to warn you that it should be someplace where it can stay for a while and not be disturbed, trampled, soiled or otherwise bothered.
By all means use your special blocking screens or mats that allow air to ciruculate all around, but can fugeddabout the blocking pins, clips, rods and wires, unless you really enjoy the process. Honestly, I believe these instruments of torture were designed by knitters for knitting. The basic knitting stitch, stockinette, has a marked tendency to curl. Perhaps blocking hardware is totally critical for fixing that, but in my experience such tools are never necessary for crochet.
4) Gently but judiciously push, pull, straighten, smooth and fuss with the fabric until the piece has the finished dimensions you want. This is where you help the fabric, the shape and fit of the garment be all it can be. Make it more you-shaped. Help the points become pointy, the curves to curve nicely. Do not overly stretch. Some yarns stretch alarmingly when wet, but will pull back when dry, so if your piece is majorly stretched out of shape, don't panic. Pat it back to the dimensions it should be. Some yarns actually seize and get tighter when wet, but will relax as they dry. Only experience will tell you what to expect.
4) Allow to dry completely. This might take a couple of hours for a lightweight wool garment. Or a couple of days for heavy cotton in a humid climate.
If this level of immersion is not practical, you can do damp blocking if you like. First spread out your project on a layer of towels atop a water-resistant surface. Using a sprayer or mister or laundry sprinkler, spritz all over with water until dampened. Ease to measurements and allow to dry completely.
As hinted at earlier, you may lightly steam most yarns, but please be careful. DO NOT PRESS or touch your steaming equipment or steam iron to the surface of your crochet. DO NOT PRESS ribbing in general. DO NOT use high heat anywhere near acrylic. You could melt it or kill it.
The problem with steam blocking is that it has to be done bit by bit, area by area, whereas wet or damp blocking allows you to work on the entire garment. Hey, everything is connected. Better to see the whole picture. I have occasionally used steam to touch up trims and remove the "fold line" from previously blocked garments, in the same way I might iron a permanent press shirt that's a little banged up. It's great for that purpose.

birthday number 41
I never took the forty paper stars down from last year, you know. just couldn't ever bring myself to do it. so look what I found hanging from the ceiling sunday morning. a sweet little addition, compliments of the husband.
and look what I found on my desk. a mess of fresh cut paper snowflakes, compliments of ezra.
you know what else? we went rollerskating.
and consumed the following: onion rings, cherry slushees, cotton candy. in that order.
then, downtown-- to cargo, to cargo.
cargo, where I filled my basket with metallic paper party hats and neon balloon horns and mustache straws. well, and then I put it all back, since we are saving our pennies and all. though not before I tried out a few of those balloon horns AND LET ME TELL YOU THOSE THINGS WERE LOUD. I did not know they would be so loud. this made ava laugh. and pretend not to know me.
after cargo and just before dinner, the photobooth! naturally.
money well spent, kids. money well spent.
alas, my birthday restaurant of choice was closed so we opted for takeout. boo, birthday restaurant of choice. boo.
BUT. a chinese takeout floor picnic? next to a crackly fire in the fireplace? with fizzy raspberry lemonades and paper straws? better than any dinner in any restaurant, any day or night of the week. sorry, birthday restaurant of choice. it's true. I still love you, but it's true.
and then, a question. do I like being 41? yes, I think maybe I do. for the most part. but not more than your fancy loopy letter Ys and your gold paper snowflakes, ezra. I'd take those over 41 anyday.
hey, how about the cake. the red velvet cake, which I sort of botched this year. something went wrong with the frosting, I don't know. and then all those candles nearly melted the cake, nearly reduced it to a pile of goo. but whatever. I earned those candles, every last one of them. I refuse to skimp on candles. you shouldn't either.
after cake came presents-- the vintage kind, the handmade kind. win win. win win win all over the place.
finally, the aftermath. red velvet birthday cake for breakfast monday morning. double triple quadruple win. and birthday number 41=properly celebrated.
I really needed a day like this, friends. I cannot tell you how much I needed a day like this.

Audio of dispatch call describes Paris Jackson's injuries
LOS ANGELES – Paramedics were dispatched to Paris Jackson's home on a report that the 15-year-old had taken 20 Motrin pills and cut herself with a kitchen knife, audio of an emergency dispatch released Tuesday shows.
The Los Angeles County Fire Department released audio of a call describing the need for paramedics between one of its dispatchers and a sheriff's department dispatcher who was relaying information from the home.
Paris is the only daughter of pop superstar Michael Jackson and was hospitalized after the June 5 incident.
The teen was described as conscious and breathing during the call, but no other details about her condition or what led to the injuries were given on the call, which lasted approximately a minute.
Perry Sanders Jr., a lawyer for her grandmother and guardian, has said Paris is physically fine and receiving appropriate medical treatment. He did not return a phone message seeking comment Tuesday.
Paris and her brothers, Prince and Blanket, are plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed by their grandmother against concert giant AEG Live LLC. The negligent hiring suit alleges AEG and its top executives failed to properly investigate the doctor convicted of administering a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol to Michael Jackson in 2009, and that AEG Live missed warning signs about the entertainer's failing health.
The trial is in its seventh week, with AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips on the witness stand.
Prince and Paris are listed as potential witnesses, although Sanders said last week there was no indication that stress from the trial had led to the teenager's hospitalization.
Michael Jackson's mother, Katherine Jackson, returned to court Tuesday, her first day back since her granddaughter's medical emergency. She attended only the morning session and was not present for afternoon testimony, which occurred after the dispatch call's release.

Things to look for in 2014 at the movies
NEW YORK — Hollywood may be hoping for a little less drama in 2014.
2013 was a tale of two cinemas. Blockbusters like "The Lone Ranger" and "After Earth" flopped spectacularly while many in the industry (including Steven Spielberg) bemoaned the increasingly commercial trajectory of the studios. And yet by the end of the year, Hollywood had set a record with nearly $11 billion in revenue, while critics hailed the year's crop — from "Gravity" to "12 Years a Slave" to "Inside Llewyn Davis" — as one of the best in years.
The movie business remains, as ever, an incomprehensible Jekyll and Hyde act of up and down, hit and bomb.
How will 2014 unfold? The plot, at least, will be unchanged. However much some would like to see a new rhythm to Hollywood's seasonal cycle, the year will move to the familiar pattern of sketchy spring releases, summer superhero blockbusters and fall awards-contenders.
Here are 10 things to look for at the movies in 2014:
Anticipation runs especially high for "Interstellar" (Nov. 7), Christopher Nolan's deep space travel adventure starring Matthew McConaughey. Nolan, the director of "Inception" and "The Dark Knight," is one of few directors whose name alone makes fanboys salivate. His imprimatur promises a cinematic experience (he likes to shoot with IMAX cameras) that few today can match. Nolan's name also looms large in "Transcendence" (April 18), which he produced. The artificial intelligence tale, starring Johnny Depp and Rebecca Hall, is the directorial debut of Nolan's longtime cinematographer Wally Pfister. Other science-fiction entries in 2014 include a reboot of "Robocop" (Feb. 12), a futuristic, time-traveling war film with Tom Cruise; "The Edge of Tomorrow" (June 8), the Wachowskis' latest fantasy oddity, "Jupiter Ascending" (July 18); and Ryan Gosling's directorial debut "How to Catch a Monster" (no date yet), a less effect-heavy domestic drama that tunnels into an underwater realm.
This year will benefit from last year's unusually good leftovers. George Clooney's World War II art rescue tale "The Monuments Men" will open Feb. 7 after being delayed from December. James Grey's Ellis Island drama "The Immigrant" (undated), starring Joaquin Phoenix and Marion Cottilard, could emerge as an Oscar dark horse after earning acclaim on the festival circuit. Bennett Miller's "Foxcatcher," featuring a dark turn from Steve Carell, will bow sometime in 2014. "Grace of Monaco," with Nicole Kidman as Grace Kelly, opens March 14. The schedule for 2014 will doubtless contain its own shifts, too. The seventh "Fast & Furious" film, planned for July, was moved to 2015 following the death of star Paul Walker in November.
MARVEL's EXPANDING UNIVERSE
Marvel's world domination continues with "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" (April 4), "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" (May 2), "X-Men: Days of Future Past" (May 23) and "Guardians of the Galaxy" (Aug. 1). The last, the lone non-sequel, represents Marvel's reach for another ensemble team-up film, and, with a cast including Chris Pratt and Bradley Cooper, perhaps something a little different than its usual output.
Though 2013 contained no major live-action musical, several are coming this year. Clint Eastwood, of all people, directs the screen adaptation of the hit production about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons in "Jersey Boys" (June 20). "Annie" (Dec. 19), produced by Will Smith and Jay Z, will get a contemporary update with "Beasts of the Southern Wild" star Quvenzhane Wallis as the titular orphan. Rob Marshall ("Chicago") will transfer James Lapine and Steven Sondheim's Grimm fable "Into the Woods" to the big screen (Dec. 25), with Meryl Streep as the Witch and Depp as the Big Bad Wolf. The Muppets, too, will be back in "Muppets Most Wanted" (March 21), a caper where Jim Henson's furry troupe travels to Europe. And not yet dated is John Carney's "Once" follow-up, "Can a Song Save Your Life?" a similarly naturalistic musical starring Keira Knightley as an aspiring singer and Mark Ruffalo as a record producer.
Paul Thomas Anderson ("There Will Be Blood," "The Master") releases have become the highlight of many a movie buff's year. His "Inherent Vice" (not yet dated), adapted from Thomas Pynchon's novel and starring Phoenix, continues the director's series of California-set films. Also hotly anticipated is David Fincher's version of Gillian Flynn's best-selling thriller, "Gone Girl" (Oct. 3), starring Ben Affleck. Other directors to watch in 2014 include Wes Anderson ("The Grand Budapest Hotel," March 7), Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu ("Birdman," undated), Woody Allen ("Magic in the Moonlight," undated) and Tim Burton ("Big Eyes," undated). Terrence Malick's latest is also expected this year, though little is ever certain with "The Tree of Life" director.
This year will boast not just a Noah, but also a Moses. First will come Darren Aronofsky's "Noah" (March 8), starring Russell Crowe and a very big boat. Ridley Scott will follow on Dec. 12 with "Exodus," starring Christian Bale as Moses. Greek mythology will also double up in 2014 with two Hercules movies. The demigod will be played by Dwayne Johnson in Brett Ratner's "Hercules" (July 25) and by Kellan Lutz in "The Legend of Hercules" (out Friday). More Greek warfare comes with the sequel "300: Rise of an Empire" (March 7).
Naturally, 2014 boasts a boatload of sequels and remakes including "Godzilla" (May 16), "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1" (Nov. 21), "Transformers: Age of Extinction" (June 27), "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" (July 11), "22 Jump Street" (June 13), "The Expendables 3" (Aug. 15) and "How to Train Your Dragon 2" (June 13). Peter Jackson will finally close out his lifetime with J.R.R. Tolkien with his final "Hobbit" installment: "The Hobbit: There and Back Again" (Dec. 17). Other franchise expansions include "The Lego Movie" (Feb. 7), "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (Aug. 8) and "Veronica Mars" (March 14), the cult TV show propelled to the big screen by a crowd-funding campaign on Kickstarter.
Co-directors Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will quickly follow up their 2013 hit "This Is the End" with "The Interview" (Oct. 10), a comedy starring James Franco as a talk-show host caught up in an assassination plot. Rogen also stars with Zac Efron in "Neighbors," by "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" director Nicholas Stoller, about a young family living next to a frat house. The 2014 comedy lineup also includes "Dumb and Dumber To" (Nov. 14), with Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels; the one-night-stand comedy "Walk of Shame" (March 14) with Elizabeth Banks; "Sex Tape" (July 25) with Cameron Diaz; the spelling bee farce "Bad Words" (March 14), directed by and starring Jason Bateman; Seth MacFarlane's comic Western "A Million Ways to Die in the West" (May 30); and the road trip comedy "Tammy" (July 4) with Melissa McCarthy, directed by her husband, Ben Falcone.
Angelina Jolie hasn't starred in a live-action film since 2010's forgettable "The Tourist," but she'll be a large presence in 2014. She stars as the title villain in "Maleficent" (May 30), the twisted "Sleeping Beauty" tale. She also directs her second feature in "Unbroken" (Dec. 25), a World War II prisoner-of-war drama co-scripted by Joel and Ethan Coen. Jolie's famous companion, Brad Pitt, stars in a WWII story of his own, "Fury" (Nov. 14), about an American tank crew in Nazi Germany.
The competition is thick for the next hit young-adult franchise. Among the films looking to draw teenage audiences with stories from popular young-adult novels are: the post-apocalyptic "Divergent" (March 21); the Shailene Woodley-starring romance "The Fault in Our Stars" (June 6); the high-school vampire fantasy "Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters" (Feb. 14); and the sci-fi dystopia "The Maze Runner" (Sept. 19). May the odds be ever in your favor.

JERUSALEM — The U.S. on Sunday announced the resumption of Israeli-Palestinian talks following years of stalemate, after Israel"s Cabinet agreed to release 104 Palestinian prisoners convicted of deadly attacks.
The return to direct contacts between the sides gave U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry his first concrete achievement after months of shuttle diplomacy.
The U.S. said preliminary talks would begin Monday, but it remains unclear whether they will lead to a formal resumption of peace talks that broke down in 2008.
Despite a return to the table, neither side appeared upbeat. Each has blamed the other for the lack of success in 20 years of negotiations interrupted by bouts of violence.
Earlier Sunday, the Israeli Cabinet voted 13-7, with two abstentions, to approve in principle the release of 104 Palestinian prisoners. The release is a key part of the Kerry-brokered deal to restart peace talks.
The State Department said Kerry called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas after the Cabinet vote and invited them to send teams to Washington.
State Department spokeswoman Jan Psaki said the teams would meet Monday and Tuesday to "develop a procedural plan for how the parties can proceed with the negotiations in the coming months."
Talks on a final peace deal are to last six to nine months.
Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat and Abbas aide Mohammed Shtayyeh will represent the Palestinians, and Justice Minister Tzipi Livni and adviser Yitzhak Molcho will attend for Israel.
Netanyahu, seeking to overcome stiff opposition from ultra-nationalists, told his Cabinet that "resuming the political process at this time is important for Israel," noting that any deal would be submitted to a national referendum.
Erekat welcomed the vote on the prisoners as a "step toward peace," one he said is long overdue.
Negotiators made progress in previous rounds, and the outlines of a deal have emerged — a Palestinian state in most of the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, lands captured by Israel in 1967, with border adjustments to enable Israel to annex land with a majority of nearly 600,000 settlers.
Those negotiations broke down before the sides could tackle the most explosive issues, a partition of Jerusalem and the fate of Palestinian refugees and their descendants, now several million people.
Abbas remains leery of negotiating with Netanyahu, fearing any offer made by the hard-liner would fall far short of Palestinian demands, so he has insisted on a clear framework for negotiations.
Abbas said over the weekend that Kerry assured him the invitation to the negotiators will say border talks are based on the 1967 line — though Netanyahu has not said whether he has dropped his long-standing opposition to that demand.
The preliminary talks in Washington are supposed to close the remaining gaps on the framework for talks, and they could well falter at that early point.
Israel"s release of veteran prisoners could help Abbas persuade a skeptical Palestinian public that it"s worthwhile returning to negotiations.
Netanyahu has repeatedly called for a resumption of negotiations that broke down in 2008, but he has not sketched the outlines of a deal he would be willing to strike, except to say he opposes a partition of Jerusalem.
In Sunday"s Cabinet meeting, he pushed through the prisoner release despite opposition by two ministers in his Likud Party and by those from a main coalition partner, the pro-settler Jewish Home Party.
Outside the government complex, hundreds protested against a release. Among them were families of Israelis killed in attacks by Palestinian militants. Some held up pictures of their loved ones.
Naftali Bennett, the head of Jewish Home, briefly joined the protesters before attending the Cabinet meeting. "It"s a hard day, the decision was made and I hope we won"t pay a horrible price for this in the future," he said after the vote.
In the West Bank and Gaza, some relatives of prisoners anxiously awaited word. "Now there is a big relief," said Walid Abu Muhsen, 45, whose brother Jamal has been in prison for the past 22 years for killing an Israeli farmer.
The first disagreements emerged just hours after the Cabinet vote, reflecting the hostility and deep mistrust between the two sides.
Under the deal brokered by Kerry, Israel is supposed to free 104 prisoners who carried out attacks before the first interim peace agreements of the early 1990s.
Palestinian negotiators handed Kerry a list of 104 prisoners, arrested between 1983 and 1994. They said Kerry assured them Israel would release the prisoners in four stages over several months, with each release linked to progress in negotiations.
Among the 104 prisoners on the Palestinian list are two dozen who either have Israeli citizenship or come from Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem. In the past, Israeli media have said Israel would not free them.
On Sunday evening, an official in Netanyahu"s office said that no Israeli Arabs are among the 104 whose release was authorized by the Cabinet. Asked to explain the discrepancy, he said Israel holds more than 104 "pre-Oslo" prisoners, suggesting the two sides apply different definitions.
Issa Qarakeh, the Palestinian minister of prisoner affairs, responded angrily.
"The agreement with Kerry was that all the pre-Oslo prisoners, including Israeli Arabs and east Jerusalem residents, will be released," he said. "If they (Israelis) exclude any of them, there will be a problem that might hinder the talks."
Israeli analyst Yossi Alpher said that a prisoner release in stages gives Netanyahu additional leverage during negotiations.
"Netanyahu has given himself a carrot that he can hold out to the Palestinians," he said. "Netanyahu can refuse to release the later batches if there"s no progress."
Associated Press writers Matthew Lee in Washington, Diaa Hadid and Max J. Rosenthal in Jerusalem and Mohammed Daraghmeh in Ramallah, West Bank contributed reporting.

Are you looking for What Is Jasper Ai Urdu?
In this post, we breakdown the essential differences between a copywriter vs content writer. What role does each play in constructing a successful brand? How To Write A Tweet.
Storytelling is key
Nowadays, the most successful brands are storytellers. They appeal to the human measurement of marketing through storytelling and compassion. They get our gain trust, inspire action and get us to believe in their mission. Storytelling is part of a continuous relationship with consumers– and it's a two-way street. Prior to you in fact start selling anything, you'll need to establish trust. Clients require to understand that your number one concern isn't to sell them, however rather to help them. It's a balancing act; one in which copywriters and content writers play various roles. They both, however, are essential in developing meaningful connections with customers. Whether you're developing your group in-house or dealing with an agency, it's excellent to understand the differences between a copywriter vs content copywriter vs content writer. Doing so will help you work with the right person to inform your brand name's story. How To Write A Tweet.
The key distinctions, according to the experts
A copywriter offers, while a content author notifies
A copywriter offers your target audience to your brand. On the other hand, a material author notifies, informs, entertains, or advises readers. Sonia Simone, establishing partner of Copy blogger Media even more discusses the difference. "Copy, traditionally, is what we utilize to make the sale. "Content does everything else. It brings in an audience, engages their continual attention, demonstrates your ability to fix their problems, and paves the way for an ultimate purchase," she says.
Copywriters create a sense of urgency and motivate emotional actions
Copywriters wish to individuals to take immediate action. For example, they'll want readers to download something, signup for a newsletter, or buy a product. "To win the click or the sale, you must not only address the reader's concern of 'why this?', however also 'why this now?'" explains Nick Wolny, Director of Content at Super Connector Media. "Copywriters thread seriousness and shortage into a headline to elicit quick action," he states. Alternatively, content writers want to build an engaged audience. As we pointed out above, they wish to establish trust and position the brand name as a reliable source of info.
Content writers prepared for future sales
Even though they're not trying to offer a service or product directly, content writers are still interested in selling. Sales are an indirect outcome of producing valuable material. Uncertain if a blog can have a measurable ROI? Alex Turnbull, CEO and Founder of Groove shows otherwise. "Trust is a substantial chauffeur of purchasing choices in any market.Blogging, for Groove, was a really efficient method to construct that trust prior to we had much of anything else to show," says Turnbull. "Our existence online has actually been massively affected by the success of the blog site, and it has driven referrals and signups from clients who otherwise might have never ever heard of Groove," he says.
Content authors are usually more focused on SEO – How To Write A Tweet.
Material writers are typically worked with to drive inbound traffic. So, outstanding content writers are great at SEO. They'll help you pick topics based on search terms that line up with your service goals. When you're employing a content author, it can be difficult to inform simply how much they know about SEO. Victor Ijidola of Premium Content Shop shares a handy idea for screening and hiring the very best SEO material authors; look for focus keywords in their composing samples. A focus keyword is the main search term a page is enhanced for. This keyword must be included in the page title, the first header (H1) and throughout the body copy It needs to also be distributed throughout subheadings. "Look through their samples; see if they have actually enhanced any content piece for a specific keyword in the past so you can understand if they'll have the ability to do the exact same for your material," advises Ijidola.
Copywriters write short-form copy, while material writers compose long-form copy
Copywriters compose copy for: Ads, online and off Mottos and taglines Websites content Email campaigns Television or radio commercial promotional and marketing scripts Video scripts Brochures Billboards Postcards Sales letters Direct-mail advertising letters Jingle lyrics Social media Material writers compose longer-form content like: Articles Blog posts Newspaper pieces Magazine functions Press Releases White documents Email newsletters E-books Books Print magazines Podcasts Tv Film A few of these areas overlap, however you get the idea.
What Is Jasper Ai Urdu
You'll have the ability to tell pretty quickly if a copywriter composes an amazing advertisement. Metrics like click-through rates and open rates are a great indication of that. Content isn't constantly simple to measure in the short-term. Excellent content methods (like white hat SEO methods) require time to pay-off. "An SEO you must trust is the one that tells you that this stuff requires time," states Jon-Mikel Bailey, CDMO at Wellspring Digital. "Due to the fact that it does. If you look back over all of the algorithm updates from Google in 2013, there is one constant … a better user experience" If that hard truth tests your persistence, consider that the worth got material from blogs and short articles has a longer shelf life. Unlike an ad or e-mail, blogs and posts have remaining power that continues to settle with time.
Material authors drive natural traffic; copywriters turn that traffic into leads.
This last point summarizes the distinctions in between a copywriter vs content writer. Copywriters drive organic traffic, while copywriters convert traffic into sales or leads. Jessica Foster, founder of Keys & Copy explains that there can be an overlap, but it's hardly ever, if ever, 100%. "While SEO experts and entrepreneur would like to get the best of both worlds– material that's made to attract organic traffic and get a high conversion rate– the reality is that SEO content is best at driving traffic and sales copy is best at selling," says Foster. What Is Jasper Ai Urdu.
Copywriter vs content author: covering it up
There comes a time to persuade, persuade, and convert individuals. It's certainly not all the time. Allocate time to delivering value with no strings connected. How To Write A Tweet.

NOTES from the UNDERGROUND No.148 | September 5, 2008
Hi Norb —
I've decided that I want people to refer to me as a maverick. As an opinion leader in the writing / publishing world, I'm hoping that you'll take a leadership role in my image remake. Despite the fact that I'm living a traditional boring 8-to-5 life, I want to add zest to my reputation. I also like that being called a maverick can explain away any faults, errors in judgment and screw-ups. If there is the opportunity to talk about me to anyone — say for example the clerk where you pick up your dry cleaning, you might say: "Did I ever tell you about this guy I know, Jeff Winke? (soft chuckle) Well, he's such a maverick!" You have to include the soft chuckle because that really seals the deal. It has to be the right kind of soft chuckle though. It has to be more of a boys-will-be-boys type of chuckle — not a sneering chuckle or a lecherous chuckle or a what-an-idiot chuckle.
Do you think you can do that for me? I appreciate your help.

Streep, Bullock, Tomlin, Diaz celebrate Jane Fonda
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The American Film Institute's celebration of Jane Fonda was like a who's who of Hollywood women.
Meryl Streep, Sally Field, Sandra Bullock, Lily Tomlin and Cameron Diaz were among the actresses saluting the 76-year-old Oscar winner, who accepted AFI's 42nd Life Achievement Award Thursday in Hollywood.
Jeff Daniels sang a song with the refrain "abs, butt and thighs," and Wanda Sykes, in a "Barbarella" costume, was carried on stage by a man dressed as a winged angel.
The private ceremony at the Dolby Theatre will air as a special on TNT June 14.
Michael Douglas, Eva Longoria and Peter Fonda also spoke at the ceremony, where his sister and honoree urged guests to remain curious, saying, "It's much more important to be interested than interesting."

Considering we do not eat meat during the Nine Day (which started last evening and runs through the 20th, the day of Tisha B'Av – 9th of Av, when the Romans burned down the Second Temple.

Review: 1921 Añejo Tequila
Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 22, 2011
1921 Tequila is made from 100% Agave cultivated in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. The distinction between tequila made from highland agave versus tequila made from lowland agave is important because agave grown in the highlands tends to carry a different flavour profile into the final tequila than lowland tequila. Highland tequila tends to have more sweet fruity citrus flavours and perhaps a touch more hot pepper in the finish.
The website for 1921 Tequila states that their Añejo Tequila has spent a year in white oak. The tequila is described on the website as:
"…It is definitely a Tequila made to be tasted calmly and enjoyed slowly in a cognac wine glass, allowing the description of the authentic taste of the white oak barrel aged for 12 months, where the wood has blended its most sophisticated characteristics with the agave from Jalisco´s soil…"
I decided to follow the advise of the website and began my tasting session with a cognac glass and the 1921 Añejo Tequila served neat without ice. Here is an excerpt from my review:
"…As I brought the brandy glass up to my nose, the fruity agave began to assert itself into the air around the glass. Nice soft pepper and ginger notes come forward out of the glass as well, followed by lime citrus and soft butterscotch. A hint of vanilla wafts into the air with some scattered tea leaves. The aroma is very nice…"
