- Also worth a pointer is an Orlowski piece that rounds up privacy concerns about Google's upcoming email service. A year ago people wouldn't have been so outspoken with their concerns about Google (many had them, but only expressed them privately). The honeymoon for Google is ending. A reporter told me about their top PR person a few days ago, saying he's the smartest one in the business. I had never heard of him. |

- MADRID, Spain - At least three suspects in the Madrid railway bombings blew themselves up Saturday after police surrounded their building and prepared to storm it, the interior minister said. One special forces agent was killed in the explosion and 11 police officers were wounded. Another bomb was found half-buried beneath a French railroad track on March 24 about 100 miles southeast of Paris, triggering a massive inspection of France's rail network. |

- Barron's writes about IBM's plan to try and ensure the survival of its Power microprocessors: At a New York City presentation on Wednesday, IBM announced it would allow anyone to freely download a bit of the once-proprietary specs for its Power microprocessors. Big Blue hopes that a Linux-like community of outsiders will design computing products around the Power chip -- products IBM hasn't thought of. For 40 years, the chip industry has been able to speed up computing by shrinking transistors, said IBM chip developer Bernie Meyerson. But you can't make things smaller forever. |

- Wine aficionados will be able to sample their favourite tipples at vineyards on Easter Sunday but anyone wanting to buy liquor elsewhere is still out of luck following the passing of the Sale of Liquor Amendment Bill (No 2).

- Burgundy wine prices jumped by an amazing 25% at the latest Hospices de Nuits auction. The sale, although for charity, is a distinct pointer as to the trend to be set by producers throughout the Cote d'Or for the 2003 vintage. Whilst the sale each November at the Hospices de Beaune is better publicised, buyers frequently find it difficult to assess such immature wines which are presented within weeks of the grapes being harvested. |

- With the recent advent of Oak Knoll as the Napa Valley's 14th sub-appellation, the question arises, what do appellations and the perceived characteristics of their terroir really mean? Does gout de terroir (taste of the region), as the French put it, really exist? Is it physically discernible, particularly here in the Napa Valley where the idea of an American Viticultural Area is taking on ever more significance? |

- Fetzer president Paul Dolan, after nearly three decades at the Mendocino winery, is leaving to pursue other interests -- the latest in a series of management shake-ups at the wine division of Kentucky-based Brown-Forman Corp. Dolan, who announced his departure to the winery staff in Hopland this afternoon, will end his tenure on April 30. "There are just certain times in your life that you recognize that it's time to do something different," he said. "I just have a really strong entrepreneurial urge right now." |

- IntroductionCrime PaysImagine the adrenaline of bolting out of the bank, a gun in one hand and a bag of cash in the other only to find the police are pulling up just then. Overhead you hear a helicopter and look up to see one from the local news watching you intently, and then you are thankful you're still wearing your mask. Well, you resolve, now you've really got to get away. As one of the officers steps out of the cruiser you open up on him. In a hail of gunfire you run. |
