The final game of the regular season was meaningless, and the Miami Heat played like it. Without their Big Three, the Heat suffered their worst defeat of 2011-2012 with a 104-70 loss to the Washington Wizards on Thursday night. With their first playoff game just two days away, Miami coach Erik Spoelstra rested the boldface names and started Shane Battier, Udonis Haslem, Eddy Curry, Mike Miller and Mario Chalmers. Only Chalmers usually starts, and Curry started for the first time in more than four years. Washington led by 25 at halftime and by as many as 38, sending the Heat to their biggest loss since Jan. LeBron James, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh watched and didn't seem to care. "If we land safely and the plane touches down in Miami, it's a victory," Battier said. The Heat are locked into the Eastern Conference's second playoff spot and open the postseason Saturday against the New York Knicks. Read more

Why I backed Pebble at Kickstarter, along with 30,000+ others
I saw someone post about the Pebble Kickstarter project (I can’t remember if I saw it on Twitter or Google+) and without even watching the promo video, I immediately backed the project, my first Kickstarter pledge. Only a few days later, at the time of this writing, there are 31,516 backers (there were only 31,497 when I started writing the sentences above, that’s how quickly people are jumping on this. When Kickstarter processed my payment, the funding round had 37 days to go and they had already hit $108,000 of their $100,000 goal. 5M in pledged funding, an average of $144 per pledge. It was interesting to read last night how Eric and his team went through the Y Combinator program to get started, but then fell flat on funding because none of the VC’s wanted to back a hardware project. Were those on the VC panel out of touch, or do they see something that 31,000 other people haven’t seen yet regarding the success. I got about the 60th Hacker Special and the rest of the 100 they......

Quirky Inns and Karaoke
A carpet, matching one that once adorned the floors of our own living room when pattern was the choice of the day, still graces the floor. When we had that carpet, in the early nineties, it was christened “the carpet you can lose a sausage on” by a friend when I was describing how hard it was to see if the children had dropped food or toys on it. I had chosen it because it reminded... This pub, run by a garrulous gay couple with theatrical leanings, is a veritable feast for the eyes, a chocolate box of taste, bearing testimony to every knickknack and piece of memorabilia ever created. We have a couple of particularly quirky pubs near us. One has to be visited at Christmas time, without fail. (That is the impression it creates as one walks in through the door). My eldest daughter has held her birthday dinner there for the past few years, ever since the day we turned up for a quiet evening drink and were struck by the curious eccentricities of the place....

LA's Jewelry Business Makes for 24-Karat Kin

They giggled as she deflates a young couple looking for an engagement ring: "Look at you guys, making your decisions together, how sweet. "No," he winces, "that's two years—four years, tops. "They are here to buy an anniversary or birthday present or an engagement ring, so most people are in a pretty good mood. " The insider's joke is the dreamy "love-is-eternal" face is mandatory in some chain stores, a staff-training cliché for tough times. "The great thing about our business is that most people are buying for a happy occasion," says Erik Halfacre, prodigy of Newport Beach's Traditional Jewelers. Let me tell you a secret: Though they may not admit it, jewelers loved last year's raucous comedy Bridesmaids , even as it mocked their profession. " Her boss urges her to put on her "love-is-eternal" face, reminding her they are selling lifelong happiness. Read more

It's an ordinary thing made extraordinary, and it's not just the characters who want it – we all do. Witness the stacks of plastic Harry Potter wands in toyshops. It's a useful device for creating drama, because everyone wants it and not everyone can have it. But a great magical object is more than that. Or the millions of replica One Rings sold after the Lord of the Rings films. And who can say they've watched Star Wars and come away without a secret (or not so secret) desire to own a lightsaber. If someone could just gather them all together, pop them in the Luggage and send them over, I'd be most grateful. That some villains are after, and our hero has to stop them getting it. Hollywood scriptwriters call this desirable object the MacGuffin (don't ask me why). The Luggage ( Discworld by Terry Pratchett ) A treasure chest crafted from magical sapient pearwood , capable of sprouting hundreds of tiny legs. The Luggage follows its owner around like a dangerous pet, cheerfully eating people when required. Read more

The Hunger Games - Part 1

DR PETER CARBERRY, CSIRO: In the next 40 years we have to produce as much food as the world has produced in the last 500 years. PIP COURTNEY, PRESENTER: Many of us probably hadn't given a great deal of thought to food security until food riots swept some of the poorest parts of the world five years ago. OF SYDNEY: You can work out on the back of an envelope that we're not gonna have enough food in 20 years time by far. It's estimated world food production will need to double by 2050. That of course has massive implications for land and water use, as well as the role of chemicals, fertilisers and new technologies such as GM foods. Those dramatic images underscored not just the need to develop sustainable strategies to feed a hungry world, but the social and political instability that may result if we do not. Read more

Sony SmartWatch hands-on
Sony also sells a metal watch adapter for attaching the gadget to standard bands from other watches. Even so, colors on the watch's screen are vibrant and the clock's digital digits glow in an attractive white hue. While the SmartWatch comes with a conservative black band, you can buy The tiny SmartWatch also sports handsome style accents such as silver metallic edges that are smoothly rounded. That's the opposite experience I had with the Motorola Motoactive which automatically flips its display to black and white for better visibility outside. 3-inch OLED screen takes up the entire front face and displays data in a low 128-by-128-pixel resolution.
