The Bishop Broncos beat the Rosamond Roadrunners by a score of 3-1 Friday.
No, it wasnŌĆÖt a soccer game, it was baseball in what amounted to a defensive battle. Broncos Doug Watterson and Tanner Kruse won that battle by a margin not reflected in the score, combining for 15 strikeouts against RosamondŌĆÖs Matt FrancoŌĆÖs three.
The win catapults Bishop ahead of Rosamond for the top High Desert League spot with a 3-0 record in league, 11-2 overall.
The Big Pine Lady Warriors softball team dropped the first game against the Trona Tornados 8-14 Friday, then came back to avenge the loss with a 26-7 rout.
ŌĆ£We should have won both games,ŌĆØ said coach Bob Church. ŌĆ£We gave up too many bases on balls combined with defensive errors.ŌĆØ
Big Pine came back in the second game with a scoring drive in the bottom of the second inning to secure the second-game win.
Game 1
Trisha Fortney pitched 3-2/3 innings
Anna Miller pitched the final 1-1/3 innings
Rachel Gibbons: 3 for 3, 2 RBI
Alicia Peterson: 2 for 3, 2 RBI
Track is a sport of personal bests and incremental improvement, with success measured in fractions of a second.
Despite BishopŌĆÖs loss to Rosamond, April 1, both the boys and girls teams have shown that incremental improvement in the three weeks since the season opener at California City.
The Broncos boys team had their share of event winners.
Tim McMullen took first in hurdles in 18.48 seconds. The team of McMullen, Ryan Davis, Trevor Beck and Tim Pejsa won the 4x100 relay.
Eastern Sierra Sliders Host Reining Clinic
Sandy Day will be conducting reining clinics at the Indian Creek Ranch, April 9-10.
Day has raised, trained and taken horses to the finals in major NRCHA and NRHA events and will share her knowledge with locals. Morning and afternoon sessions will be limited to five riders each for a total of 20 slots over the two days. Riders fee is $60 per session; auditors $20 a day.
For more information and sign-ups, call Happy Nelson (760) 872-2034 or Cory Buffington (760) 937-1781.
City of Bishop
Adult Basketball
Final Standings
In an effort to get as many games under the Lady BroncosŌĆÖ belts before the High Desert League softball matches start April 5, Broncos coach Stacy Van Nest contacted Burroughs to set up a game for last Friday.
The outcome was valuable experience but a 3-11 loss to the tough Ridgecrest team.
ŌĆ£We put the ball in play,ŌĆØ said Van Nest, ŌĆ£but just needed to string more hits together and be more solid on defense.ŌĆØ
The game went a full seven innings. Burroughs held Bishop to one run through five innings.
MurphyŌĆÖs Law could be applied to the Bishop BroncosŌĆÖ match-up with the Burroughs Burros Saturday. With the exception of a few moments of great Broncos baseball, everything that could go wrong ŌĆ" you know the rest.
Too many Broncos stranded on base, too many errors, too many walks, but coach Tim Reid found the silver lining in the 8-5 loss. ŌĆ£I was proud of the way the team battled,ŌĆØ said Reid. ŌĆ£We shouldnŌĆÖt have even been in the game,ŌĆØ he said in reference to the tough Burros, a team that had leveled Rosamond 20-4 in a pre-league game March 22.
After a 25-year absence, the Return of a Classic Event will make its debut in California City with the running of the California City Gran Prix, April 15-17.
This event was once a major attraction in the deserts of Southern California, but then it went away. The then promoter decided to retire and requirements surrounding the desert became even more difficult to meet.
in CIF All-Star Game
Christian Hernandez, representing the Bishop soccer team in the All-Star CIF senior game, scored the only goal for the Div. 6/7 squad as they took on the Div. 5 All Stars.
HernandezŌĆÖs finish was a beautifully placed header from the penalty spot over the keeper late in the first half. The Div. 5 team ended up winning 3-1 but Hernandez played well in his last game as a high school student.
Lemus, Tweedy
Named All-CIF
Big Pine Warrior Marissa Lemus and Lone Pine Golden Eagle Nicole Tweedy were named All-CIF in girls basketball in their respective divisions.
The Bishop High track teams got a split decision at their first dual meet at California City, March 10. The girls pulled off a decisive 61-33 win over 10 events. The Cal City RavensŌĆÖ boys team snuck past the Broncos, winning the meet 68-59.
The Lady Broncos recorded a win in each of their events.
The Broncos took firsts in the 400-meter, 300-meter and 100-meter hurdles, long jump and shot put.
4x100 Relay
1st: Michelle Case, Natalia Gonzalez, Katie Shipkey, Mandy Fuller, 56.12
4x400 Relay
1st: Dana Grevenkamp, Mandy Fuller, Katie Shipkey, Shelby Dolim, 4:56.0
1,600 Meters
BishopŌĆÖs snow sport teams came back from the state finals at Northstar with South Division II championship banners.
The California Nevada Interscholastic Ski and Snowboard Federation brought together 32 teams to the Lake Tahoe ski area, March 7-11.
Bishop was on top of league standings at the end of the four-meet season at Mammoth Mountain; the Division II championships were the icing on that cake.
Four Broncos snowboarders competed in the menŌĆÖs championship slalom and giant slalom races.

This ring is total class mixed with a modern design. If you have looked at the picture and can't decide if the ring is dark like the photo, just know that it isn't as dark as it looks. It is a perfect balance of color. If you are looking for a ring that isn't bright silver, then this color is for you. The outer edges of the ring are pretty much true to color in the photo. The center band of the ring is is one to two shades darker with a brushed finish. When you wear this ring and the light catches it, you get a slight flash from the light bouncing off the outer edge. It is truly an attention grabber. This ring is solid. Sizing: If the top of your fingers are thinner than your knuckle then get 1 size smaller (i was a 9 and an 8 fits perfectly). If the top part of your finger is around the same diameter as your knuckle then a half size smaller is the way to go. I have had this ring for a week now and I have received numerous comments on it when people notice it. For the price, I went ahead and bought 2 sizes so as I grow old and my finger grows I will be able to switch to the larger size. This ring is timeless.
I found this ring in a jewelry store that was priced right at $150.00 more than Overstocks price. I decided to order the ring after reading all the reviews in a half size smaller than the ring size. Needless to say I had to return the ring for half size larger than I ordered. In my opinion the ring is true to the actual ring finger size.
The size was perfect, and it actually looks better in person. Looks much more expensive than it really is! Definitely recommend this item!
I purchased this ring for a wedding band for my fiance who works as a Physical Therapist. We were worried about having something that would not scratch patients, but would also stand up to frequent physical abuse and multiple hand washings every day. This ring has been the perfect solution to our concerns. No scratches after a few months of use and if it gets misplaced at work it will only be bucks to replace.
This ring looking on-line was perfect. I had my husband go to a jewelry store and try on a tungsten size 9 1/2 and it fit him perfectly. Once we received the ring, he put it on and shook his hand and it flew off. Be sure to go a 1/2 size smaller than what you are. Also, be sure to watch the THICKNESS of the ring...........also the width, but the THICKNESS of this ring was too much. He felt like he was wearing a washer bolt. If you notice, SOME of the rings will list how thick they are and some do not. This is very important for comfort. This is our opinion. Good luck.
Bought this for my man.. he loves it. Perfectly shiny!! He's a man with man's hands so I was worried that this ring wouldn't hold up. It's the perfect size and mm.
sturdy no scratching and still shines after wearing it everyday
He loves his ring...I had it engraved on the inside of the ring. It was perfect for the engraving and for how he works.
It works. After a while, I did notice scratches on the ring but that's probably because my husband has a rough hands-on job.
Bought this ring a year ago for my now husband. He wanted a wedding ring that would look nice and be durable. This ring is just that! It's got a nice weight that isn't too heavy or too light. The color in the picture is a bit lighter than what you get. The color is more like a gun metal grey. The inside of the ring is nicely polished without any roughness to irritate. Great ring for a great price and it STILL looks as good as the day I put it on his finger!

Cultural Policy
Australia's domestic production of goods and services is valued at some $20 billion annually. It is similar in size to the home building industry. Just over 250,000 Australians are employed in the cultural sector, which represents 3.3% of the total Australian workforce. Altogether, 157,000 people work in a cultural occupation as their main job and a further 98,000 work in cultural industries in a non-cultural occupation. The funding that the Government provides the arts is not a handout but an investment in an industry like any other. [1]
The importance of a strong cultural identity is not just important for Australia's citizens. It is also important to business, tourism and trade as it contributes to our international reputation as sophisticated, vibrant and progressive. Australia presents opportunity for migrants and it is even more important that our stories are told to ensure that society maintains our values and cohesions. We are an open and tolerant society. That does not mean we do not stand for something. We need an interesting and well-developed culture to be considered a world-class nation to which people wish to visit and invest, which further generates wealth.
AUSBUY believes the Government needs to put more support into the cultural funding bodies, at both State and Federal level. We also need to develop the philanthropic movement as another source of funding.
Our Government sees the huge importance sport plays to our nation's identity, and AUSBUY agrees sport is fundamentally important to our image and lifestyle. However, sport receives many millions more in government funding that the arts. There have certainly not been as many, if any, government reviews into sport funding as there have been into the arts in recent years.
AUSBUY believes we need to extend the tax incentives for private donations to the arts.
The Australia Council should be able to develop policy and make funding decisions without having to follow government guidelines or election promises. Galleries and museums should elect their own boards and committees. Politicians should leave artistic decisions to artists and arts-workers.
As well as training and supporting our artists in their art-making, AUSBUY believes it would also be beneficial to train these artists in market development, self promotion and publicity in order to empower themselves to secure funding, patronage and commercial interest.
Government should stipulate to developers that all new developments must expend a percentage of their budget on public artworks within the development, whether they be outdoor sculptures, mosaics or paintings in the lobby. This will build opportunities for local Australian artists.
Whilst developing new means of expression, it is also vitally important we preserve our cultural heritage, indigenous culture and traditions as well as our architectural heritage, archives and historical objects.
Our government must see the arts as a valuable part of our economy which brings funds into our country whilst enlivening our community. Think of the Renaissance when Europe was thriving economically at the same time as it was artistically.
Addendum 2009
Reviews by the Australian Productivity Commission in 2009 were based on what price alone by removing the rights of Australian writers to their right to earn income and copyright. This was done under the guide that we can buy cheaper books. If we do not nurture our writers, who will tell our stories? When decisions are made short term based on the bottom line, there is something fundamentally wrong with the decision.
We Need to be Able to Tell Our Own Stories
Discussions about removing copyright benefits to our Australian authors have the money men thinking about cheaper prices here. This devalues the essence of our intellectual property and creativity and opportunity for our best minds to earn money through telling our stories rather than borrowing other cultures. The UK and USA reserve the right to protect their intellectual property so why is the Productivity Commission so obsessed with removing our authors' rights and income.
AUSBUY believes the issue is beyond economics. It is also about tapping into our stories as told by Australians. During a recent meeting with the education department I was surprised to hear that there is little education material available which tells the Australian story. One of AUSBUY's members, Aussie School Books writes around 20 books a year for our school children because the author saw a need to tell our stories in our words, and relies on enlightened teachers and librarians to access these stories.
AUSBUY believes that as a nation we have always been productive, clever and innovative. We are in the top five countries to win Noble Prizes - our first in 1915 and nearly all in Science and Medicine, our sports people and artists are extolled for their excellence, yet we allow the essence of our culture to be eroded by "productivity commissions" who measure their productivity by the bottom line. Who measure their own productivity?
Excellence comes from vision and passion and hard work - Australian excellence is based on the four pillars of the ANZACs - courage, endurance, sacrifice and mateship. When will we start to nurture and acknowledge those who tell our stories?
AUSBUY represents only Australian Owned companies and all these have their foundation in someone having an idea and realising their dream through ingenuity and hard work - yet they are diminished in our "global drive". In the current climate we say if the decisions are not made here, the profits do not stay and then the jobs are at risk. The same applies to our writers. We have forgotten about our own village, and in these hard times it is a good time to really appreciate what we have as a nation - we are very special - ask every migrant who has come here in the last 200 years and every indigenous Australian.

a few waves from fridays epic swell in south jersey
Nice edit dude! those waves were peeling
I love that break , such a fun wave. I didn't get to make to that end with the blvd flooding a bit . Glad to see you guys scored down there . Looked a little smaller then HC .
I'm not crying, just clarifying and filling in the important details. John doesn't seem mind having you guys think it was comparable to a flawless reef pass in Indo.
Beautiful photography as a floridiain, I especially enjoyed seeing the icicles hanging off the sign, and the wind drifting the snow against the pole .You northern guys are either very tough or insane.

Autonomic neuropathy is a nerve disorder that affects involuntary body functions such as digestion, perspiration, blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature, and changes in the way your eyes adjust to light.
Symptoms include:
As you can see from the above list, autonomic neuropathy involves multiple systems in your body's functions, from the top of your head to the tip of your toes. Multiple treatments are generally required.
Make sure you have a good yearly physical exam for your diabetes and that your health care provider assesses you for neuropathies.
What are some of your experiences with autonomic neuropathy?
Regards and have a great week.

I am not diabetic but have been diagnosed with Neuropathy. It started in my feet within weeks after shoulder surgery. It has progressively gotten worse as well as high bp and eyesight. At first I thought it was from being immobile but didn't clear up as I started moving again.
I believe it is from chemicals used during surgery or the meds right after it. Now have problems with my wrist as well and that is how I was diagnosed. Could it be from something used during the surgery?
I am not diabetic but I have burning from my head to my rest does anyone else have this was wonder what it is
I have been diabetic over half of my life. In this time I have had 11 PRP surgeries in one eye, 13 in the other eye and 2 vitrectomies in each eye followed by the removal of the right eye and insertion of a glass eye. I also suffer from autonomic neuropathy. My remaining eye does not adjust to light from dark. I wear polarized sunglasses or would be blinded by the white light. I also have gastroparesis(slow emptying of the stomach). This has resulted in issues with insulin reactions. I find it works better to take insulin after eating than before eating. I have no feeling from the knees down in both legs. I originally did have the electrical shock sensations in the shins but this went away. Wearing ompression hose did help with the discomfort. I also have proximal diabetic neuropathy in the right buttock and thigh( a weakening and shrinking of the muscle tissue) and am now being diagnosed with Charcot joint in the right ankle. I am female in my mid forties and am compliant with medications, diet and exercise.
My mother is 89 yr old and recently diagnosed with neuropathy. Evidently she has had this for some time for now she is unable to walk and cannot feel her feet and legs. She is on a dose of 1000 mg solumedral each week but doesn't seem to have much impact. She has always been active and it is taking its toll. She is diabetic but has always had it under control. The solumedral is making blood sugar go crazy and her coumadin levels too. Any suggestions?
I am 53, and until 5 months ago, seemed to be in decent health. I am 16 pounds overweight, and could exercise more, but have a decent and well rounded diet. I started to have neuropathy symptoms 4 months ago like intense burning on the bottoms of my feet, numbness in various parts of my face and hands and occasional sharp pains in finger tips. I constantly think about what shoes and socks I'm wearing and miss out on a lot of activities with my family due to foot pain. I was missdiagnosed with broken bones (not) was almost on the table for spinal surgery (not the problem) and all of my blood work (full panel, fasting glucose, 24 hour urine) were normal. I found the A1c test on this site, and asked my promary doc to do the test. the results were 5.9, prediabetes. I have discovered in my research about the Diabetes Prevention Program developed my the cdc/nih and piloted in, I believe 2002, at various YMCA's with great results. I live in the Washington DC area, and no one (hospitals, YMCA, etc) offers this class. I know that with a lifestye change, that I can possibly make a big difference in my situation. Why is there limited support, but lots of classes are available once you have the disease? Our heath care system at its worse. Also, Do you have any other resource suggestions? My neurologist isn't convinced that prediabetes is causing my symptoms. I am on the waiting list to come to the Mayo Clinic
My husband has nuropathy but not diabetes. He is in misery with burning over his entire body also heavy feeling in his feet.
dr has tried nuroton and didnt give any relief. Now is on Lyrica and getting no relief. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated
Your podiatrist can prescribe Dr. Comfort shoes which are designed for diabetic feet. If not Dr. Comfort, there are other brands also. We have the Dr. Comfort in our area. Medicare covers payment of the shoes if prescribed by a podiatrist.
For help check your local hospital for groups to go to. Many of them post their times and meeting places there.
As far as the sweating I have the same thing and have found that Degree works well on it and there is shirts that are moisture wisking that work really well. This is on way for me though to know when my sugar is falling below 60 so I don't want to stop all of that. Is there any shoes that will help with someone that has had a very bad ulcer on the ball of the foot. Have tried all including men's 4E with 2 pads and 2 ball pads along with socks and still get bruising if on feet more than 3 hours at a time.
i do not have the risk factors for autonomic neuropathy. i do have the symptoms. after hospitalization, i was diagnosed by process of elimination. is there a support group or website that i can join? i have the sweating, blood pressure vertigo, quick elimation after eating, (35 min.), yellow diahrrea, problems with sight at night and rapid heartbeats. does anyone else have this problem?
I am 21 and a "new" diabetic. I landed myself in the hospital for a week last year on a potassium and insulin drip, given daily blood thinner injection, and oral potassium. I hurt everywhere, I was weak, stiff, patches of skin where numb and my vision changed. I was the youngest one on my floor.
Please dont do what I did. I have learned how to manage pretty well now and just happy to be alive. I pushed it too far and i dont want to again.
Diabetes causes dry skin, which causes itching. Use a washing liquid like Aveeno Skin Relief body wash. If heat is causing the itching, I have found witch hazel to be an instant cure. Re-apply as necessary. If she isn't getting dirty, don't bathe her daily - it, too, dries out the skin & hair. Older people aren't as moisturized.
Another thing: Heat, skin folds & diabetes often cause a yeast infection on the surface of the skin (under breasts, crotch, etc.). I use a clear spray for athletes foot as a deodorant to prevent it, and monostat-type cream to treat any that slips by me. I don't want that awful fat-old-person smell that's caused by fungal infections.
Is intense itching a symptom of diabetes? My 95-year-old mother is in agony. No doctors have been able to help her but a dermatologist said since she is diabetic, it is her diabetes. No meds have helped her. She is desperate and unable to stop the itching. Any suggestions besides
Zhao- Sorry. We wish that there was a cure for diabetes. At this time, diabetes is controlled through lifestyle changes and medication or insulin.
Shelley-Check with your local diabetes clinic for available diabetes support groups in your area. You might also check with your local public health nurse for any information about support groups.
I want to know the instant way of curing diabetes. My father suffered from this disease because of excessive driking and smoking. He is very suffering now and has to take medicine every day. I saw the website online and I want to seek solutions to cure him and make him happy. Hope you can give me a reply.
This is the first summer that I've had problems tolerating any kind of heat and/or humidity. My body responds with a full on flush and soaking sweat. I've been trying to figure out if it's from the medications I've been taking but maybe it's from the diabetes.
My husband is not a diabetic. He has had chemo and is experiencing lots of these problems as well and numbness in the feet and hands. Is there anything that can help these conditions.
Just sending out a yell for help...I don't have diabetes but my husband of 28 years does (type 1 for 53 years). I find his illness to be one that affects the whole family and am becoming overwhelmed as he is now facing a kidney transplant as well. IS THERE A SUPPORT GROUP OF ANY KIND available to family? I try very hard to not be the "police" but also want to do what is best for him in the midst of his depression and anger. I would be so appreciative of any help....thank you.

HVAC Dampers
Installing HVAC Dampers in a ventilation system gives you more control over the air flow and its amount passing through the duck work. That way a certain flow level can be set to make sure the system works properly and each element receives the amount of air it needs. Westside Wholesale offers wide selection of HVAC Dampers that will become a perfect match for any residential and commercial system.
Items for sale include standard backdraft, manual iris, spring loaded and vertical discharge double-leaf dampers of the following diameters: 4", 6", 7", 8" and 10". Such diverse collection of dampers is offered to help every customer find the option he needs.
HVAC Dampers are irreplaceable when a constant temperature control of ductwork systems is required. Installing such devices in your ventilation or other types of systems provides full control over the ducting elements. Each model offered by Westside Wholesale is easy to calibrate and setup, and has a design that simplifies its mounting.
You can set a dumper based on your needs allowing air to flow according to the regulated level. This feature becomes really important when mixed air flows into multiple areas of the system. Since some of the rooms and applications may require the air of a certain temperature and others may not need that air at all, HVAC Dampers become a useful tool that helps properly control the air flow and create comfortable environment in every area of the house. This, along with easy installation and compatibility with standard rigid or flexible ducting, makes HVAC Dampers a must have in any ventilation system. Each damper presented at Westside Wholesale is made from galvanized steel while collars are manufactured from lightweight aluminum, making them compatible for low pressure duct work.
The process of selecting HVAC Dampers from Westside Wholesale requires minimum effort and time. Since you don't need to leave your house to purchase the items you need, the time and money you save can be spent on your family.

How to Select
How to select HVAC Dampers
A HVAC Damper is a valve that regulates [and oftentimes] stops the air flow in a ventilation system. Such fittings are installed to cut down the unnecessary applications or rooms that aren't occupied from the actual flow of air. This provides homeowners with the opportunity to save some money.
To select the perfect HVAC damper for your particular system you need to specify where it will be installed. Such accessory is oftentimes installed inside a chimney, air handler or duct. If you need to cut an unused room of the house from the central air-conditioning, you should select the type of damper that can be manually controlled. Backdraft dampers are perfect to regulate the air temperature and flow for room-by-room connections.
Size and design are the next factors to consider. Selecting the damper that will fit your ventilation applications is crucially important for the correct operation of the entire system. Carefully measure the diameters of all applications and then select the damper with the exact same measurements.
Another important factor to consider is the control option of your future HVAC damper. The only types that exist today are automatic and manual. A dumper with manual operation is turned by a handle that is installed outside of duct. Such types require your direct attention. Automatic HVAC dampers feature more convenient controls. They are usually equipped with a pneumatic or electric motor. In addition to that, you can connect them to a thermostat or an automatic system that regulates all of the devices in the building. While manual damper has lower price and suits all new and old ventilation systems, automatic dampers increase the convenience but also the amount of money you will need to spend on their installation.
The material from which the HVAC dampers are made of should be resistant to a constantly changing environment. What it means is that a damper should offer the same high level of operation in wet, warm and cold conditions. Galvanized steel is the best material to fit such requirements.
When you have found the best option to suit your system, spend a couple of more minutes to analyze its price. What you need to know is that the most expensive HVAC dumpers are oftentimes not the best options and vice versa. All of the top brands that manufacture HVAC equipment offer various options for all price categories. Look for a damper that has affordable price but comes from a well-known brand, because top companies offer warranty for every item they produce.

Make Way for Ducklings event coming March 24
Monday, March 11, 2013
YORK, Maine — Spring and summer mark the busiest seasons for Center for Wildlife — a nonprofit organization that each year medically treats over 1,600 patients, fields over 12,000 phone calls from the community on our Wildlife Assistance Hotline, and provides environmental education programs to over 7,500 participants from the community.
This event is the 5th annual "Make Way for Ducklings" which will be held on Sunday, March 24, from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. at the American Legion Post 56 in York Maine. Last year more than 100 participants from the community attended. The goals of this popular event are to share Center for Wildlife's work with the community, actions that people can take to protect wildlife during this season, and to raise funds to support the busy season. Center for Wildlife staff, volunteers, and wild animal ambassadors have lots of great fun planned, including an activity where kids can sport wings and "become a raptor!" Light refreshments, raffles (including a chance to release a group of ducklings this spring), an adoption and sponsorship table, touch table for kids, and an owl pellet activity will also be happening as we celebrate spring. Live animal ambassador demonstrations will take place at 11:30 and 12:15 p.m. No registration is required, $5 suggested donation for adults, and kids are free.
Quick tips on keeping wildlife safe this season:
■ Fledgling birds cannot fly when they first leave the nest. Look for parents coming down to feed, keep kids and pets clear, or call our Wildlife Assistance Hotline before taking a baby bird from it's habitat.
■ Keep domestic cats indoors. This keeps wildlife and cats safe, and a recent study found that domestic cats can kill billions of birds and small mammals each year!
■ If you find a nest of baby mammals on the ground, give space and watch for mom to return. If nests become disturbed or blown down, mothers will rebuild nests and relocate their babies within hours.
■ If you find any wild animal suspected to be injured or orphaned, call our Wildlife Assistance Hotline at 207-361-1400 and our Wildlife Specialists will be happy to give professional advice.

The Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht have released figures which was the Hollywood actor spent $20,158 (€15,845) on hotels, flights and chauffeurs during his tenure as Ireland's cultural ambassador.
Last week Byrne called the Gathering a "scam" aimed at gullible Americans. He told "The Last Word" on TodayFM that Americans were not receptive to being "shaken down" for money.
He said the Irish "don't give a s**t about the Diaspora except to shake them down for a few quid."
Byrne acted as a cultural ambassador to promote development of Irish arts and culture, particularly in the United States. During his role in 2010 he received no salary but his expenses were paid.

Figures released this week show that Byrne racked up a bill for $2,518 (€1,980) at Dublin's historic Shelbourne Hotel and a bill for $2,379 (€1,870) at the Westbury Hotel, off Grafton Street, the Irish Independent reports. His other expenses including first class tickets, VIP and Club Travel and chauffeur services.
Following Byrne's comments last week Jim Mily, the Gathering's project director, this was "just one man's opinion".
He said "The Diaspora and The Gathering are bigger than any one man, be it Gabriel Byrne or otherwise."

Chilling tale of alleged child abuse in Dover: Mother claims girl was once fed only one meal every other day
Saturday, December 22, 2012
DOVER — After allegedly admitting to abusing a 27-month-old girl, the husband of the child's mother was arraigned Friday morning where his personal recognizance bail was changed to $10,000 cash bail.
Police say the second video, titled "Tantrum," showed the girl repeatedly banging her head into the wall while Smith could be heard off screen saying, "Come on," and Morgan could be heard saying "Is she still doing that?" and "Honey, you are only hurting yourself right now."
Asked why she did not intervene when her husband was recording the child in the "Tantrum" video, Morgan reportedly told police she didn't because it was "going to cause more issues."
At the end of the video, police reported Morgan and Smith could be heard "casually" talking about the cell phone's capabilities before Smith yelled at the child, "Don't even look at Mama!" Smith allegedly told authorities after showing them the videos, he recorded them "in case something like this happened."
At a Dec. 14 hearing in Dover Circuit Court, Morgan, also known as "Cheryl Smith," was released on $10,000 personal recognizance bail. At his hearing on Friday, Smith had his personal recognizance bail converted to cash, pending approval from the Strafford County Community Corrections program. A transport order to Strafford County House of Corrections was included in his court files later that afternoon.
The Dover Police Department originally pursued an investigation of the alleged child abuse when officers responded to the couple's apartment for reports of a domestic disturbance on Nov. 26. Morgan and Smith reportedly turned themselves in after warrants were issued for their arrests.
According to court documents, in a later interview, Morgan told police she had engaged in some of the same disciplinary tactics as her husband in the past, including forcing the child to stand in a time-out corner.
Smith reportedly explained to police he "keep(s) things bottled up" and would "lose control sometimes" while disciplining the toddler, but would sometimes stop to calm down. Morgan allegedly acknowledged in interviews with police her daughter was not safe with her or Smith and they were using excessive force.

Battle Dawn
Battle Dawn Overview
Battle Dawn is a strategy game that plays differently than most browser games of the same genre. With a large map of either Earth, Mars, or a fantasy realm serving as the backdrop, players create colonies, set up outposts and vie for control of ancient relics. Alliances must be formed and resources extracted to muster enough troops to capture all 10 relics and declaring victory, causing a new round to begin. There are four key resources in each of the three settings and the map's geographically is generally limited to an aesthetic role; players receive no penalties for placing their colony in Antarctica nor any benefits for choosing a more fertile land.

James Marsden Gossip
James Marsden gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
James Marsden rides the D Train
Wenn, Alberto E. Rodriguez/ Tommaso Boddi/ Getty Images
I know there are a few of you out there who are into James Marsden, but he doesn't leave a lot of openings, as it were. So enjoy him, looking super hot in a douchebaggy way, in the new trailer for The D Train, a comedy with Jack Black that premiered earlier this year at Sundance. I prefer Black in uptight weirdo mode (see also: Bernie), and I'm also into the presence of Kathryn Hahn and Enlightened's Mike White. Full Story
The new Keanu Reeves
There's another Nicholas Sparks movie coming out in November. It's called The Best Of Me. The trailer was released a couple of days ago. Predictably they used that John Legend wedding song that keeps repeating on the radio. So you'll recognise the signature Sparks story. Much like The Notebook, there's a before and after. Full Story
Career Prospectus: James Marsden
Ivan Nikolov /WENN
(Click here for previous installments of the Career Prospectus series.) I jokingly proposed doing a prospectus on James Marsden a few weeks ago, but then thought, No but seriously—what happened to James Marsden? So I'm answering my own question with this prospectus, because Marsden is a guy—talented, likeable, good-looking—who ought to have a stand-out career, but he's been spinning his wheels for over a decade as a workaday actor. Full Story
Straw Dogs trailer
Alexander Skarsgard is expected in Cannes for Lars von Trier's latest Melancholia with Kirsten Dunst. His girlfriend Kate Bosworth's name has appeared on virtually every tip-sheet for every party here so far. A tip-sheet is a list of celebrities that publicists send out in advance of an event to let you know who's attending. Full Story
Cam & James Marsden
Good on James Marsden. Finally. Because he's almost always the other guy. Except with Katherine Heigl. He was the guy for her in 27 Dresses. Which is almost worse than being the other guy. In The Box however James is Cameron's guy. It's a thriller about a box and a million dollars and a button that kills someone… and what do you do? Trailer is below and the film opens on Friday. Full Story
Degrassi Star Comes Out
Tonight, in an eTalk exclusive, Degrassi star Adamo Ruggiero talks publicly for the first time about coming out of the closet, coming to terms with his sexuality, and telling his parents. "I didn't plan it that way… maybe it's life imitating art… Degrassi let me do something real and I kindof feel like I'm living proof of what the show was working to accomplish. Full Story
Carb Face, Abbie & Ava
Well well… Two very interesting sets of photos taken by Flynet... First – Abbie Cornish who reportedly slept with Reese Witherspoon's husband when he was still her husband shopping the other day with none other than Ava Phillippe. Full Story

Penang Curry Mee
Recently, I have been craving for Penang hawker food (street food). I haven't been home to Penang for well over eight months so it's hard not to miss all the great foods of my hometown.
Curry Mee—otherwise known as curry laksa, or laksa—is a noodle dish with a coconut milk curry gravy. (This is not to be confused with Penang laksa or Assam Laksa, which is rice noodles with spicy and sour fish broth.) There are many variations in Malaysia, but Penang curry mee is what tickles my taste bud, with toppings many would consider bizarre: pig's blood cubes (they taste like tofu except that they are maroon in color), bloody cockles, soaked cuttlefish slices, shrimp, and tofu puffs. Although many people shun away from pig's blood cubes and cockles in their curry mee these days, I am a firm believer that these two key ingredients are the souls of Penang curry mee, without them, it's not quite the same. I always ask for extra blood cubes and cockles whenever I eat curry mee in Penang. I can't help it, I love these two "bloody" ingredients.
This Penang curry mee recipe is adapted from my favorite Penang cookbook: Famous Street Food of Penang (A Guide and Cook Book). Unlike the rich and creamy curry noodles found elsewhere in Malaysia, Penang curry has a much lighter and less milky broth, which in my opinion, makes it a lot more appetizing as I tend to get tired (jelak) of the creamy and rich versions very fast.
Like most Penang street food, the preparation takes hours, but nothing beats a bowl of pipping hot and extremely delightful curry mee that closely mimics the taste of my favorite curry mee stall in Penang, which is Lorong Seratus Tahun Curry Mee. Being 10,000 miles away from home, my Penang curry mee is really as good as it gets. Click here and here for pictures of Penang curry mee sold at famous hawker stalls in Penang, and mine doesn't look too pale compared to them. :)

Yummmmmmm… makes me hungry. I bought the book a while back. The two ladies on the front page is from Air Itam, Penang.. I recently took photo of the two a few years ago. http://madamkwong.com/?p=311
Such an authentic version of Penang curry mee. I love the extra mile you took to source for all the ingredients. Beautiful presentation as always!
OMG!!!! look so yummmm!!! must taste good too. do u mind to tell me where did u buy the bowl…. ? thank you
Looks so delicious – I haven't had this since I was in Southeast Asia! Yum!
Oh man, you are killing me with this Penang Curry Mee, looks so yummylicious. I am not from Penang but I also prefer Penang-style curry mee, which is less creamy and jelak as you said. In KL, the curry laksa is too much coconut milk and sometimes I feel like eating chicken curry with noodles inside.
I love pig's blood cubes too! They used to have it as an (chosen) ingredient in the bowl of Yong Tau Foo, but now I can hardly see those "bloody" cubes. People are getting very conscious. I also remember that bowl of viet noodles (Bun Bo Hue) in LA which has blood cubes…"bloody" goody!
You made me craving now…. got to get a bowl of it afterwards… I mean from hawker stall nearby, as I can't cook as good as you :p
I love these flavors!
I haven't had Penang Curry Mee, but it sure looks delicious. Can you source fresh blood cockles in the US? The frozen ones don't have the same sweetness. It's like freshly steamed "live" crab versus the "re-steamed" crab.
Penang curry mee is the best. I love it with pigs blood cubes and cockles too, and lots of mint and long beans. And of course the chilli that goes with it must be fragrant too. I have lived in KL for 20 years and still can't form a liking for their version of rich, lemak laksa.
Wow this is such a beautiful bowl of curry — when I saw the pigs blood i honestly had to do a double take i said to myself "NO WAY, SOMEONE WAS GUTSY ENOUGH TO POST PIGS BLOOD?? and not only that she made it look absolutely DELICIOUS?" I love pigs blood but anytime I bring up the topic or suggestion to order it at a restaurant my friends instantly scrunch up their faces and some even gag just to be extra mean (all in good fun of course). Maybe I will just have to prepare this curry at home and enjoy all its glory by myself :) How interesting, I love it!
Beautiful blog you have here btw :) very very nice!
that's a very hearty bowl of noodles!
you can actually get pig's blood over there?
Thanks Bee for your delicious post- I use to live right on Lorong Selamat! The epicenter of Penang culinary and hawker delights! Do you know where can I get blood cake here in US? It is rather difficult to find a good Malaysian restaurants in New York which able to duplicate the taste of home, specially the distinctive taste of pipping hot curry broth simmered slowly with charcoal stove!
i love pig blood cubes too! always ask for extra, hehe..also penang curry mee is arguably in my top 3 fav hawker food in penang!
You had me at pig's blood. Do they sell them like that in CA? That bowl of curry mee is so…nostalgic-looking, Bee. You know, there is a curry mee stall in a kopitiam just 150meters away from my grandmother's house on Perak Road (now torn down and new apartments stand where it once was), that serves a really good bowl of curry mee. I don't know if they are still there but personally, their bowl of curry mee was better than the one on Lorong Seratus Tahun. And the price..omg, small for RM2.30, big for RM2.70 and extra topping for RM0.50 more!
I think it looks delicious! My tummy is rumbling! We use blood in our cusine too, a most misunderstood ingredient!
When I first saw your picture I thought you had chocolate cubes on top of your noodles. "Chocolate and curry noodles? Hmm, that's new," I thought! :-)
I wish for a bowl of Penang curry mee now too!
The pictures looks so good. If I can eat them, I would!! LOL! I miss the penang style curry me. I have bought those packet stuff (Delimas) curry mee paste, but it's not the penang style. I think I can taste the Jelutong market curry mee in my mind now…
Dear Yee Sin,
I noticed that you had purchased Delimas product. Do you know where I can buy them? The online store that used to sell them (masfoodonline.com) has discontinued service. I am unable to find any in Atlanta, GA.
I have been looking for them for a year now. Eager to get some curry paste. For me, it taste better than Chan Hong and Tean's.
I'm craving for curry mee now! Looks amazing!
Oh yum this looks so delicious. I've never had this Penang curry dish but I've heard so much about it. x
Do you know where I can buy a good Malaysian shrimp paste here in CA, US? Those in Asian grocery market normally are too spicy or grow mold really quick after opening the jar, though I put them in the fridge.
definitely a very authentic looking bowl of penang curry mee you've got there!! ~salute~
i like mine with extra tofu puffs to soak up all the soup! hehe
Ahhh, nice Penang Curry Mee Recipe. Missed eating it this CNY trip….., maybe go down to Lorong Seratus Tahun outlet in SS2 PJ tomorrow!
this looks fabulous, this will definitely in my recipe box
Great yummy pictures as always. I think I should merge Japanese curry mee with the Penang style curry mee with the recipe and see what is happening. Thanks
Wow, lots of effort but I'm positive so worth it!
Hi Bee…we ate curry mee once in Penang this trip home but it wasn't the very best. Most of the stalls were still closed so we made do lah! I hate to say this, but I'm no longer a fan of pig's blood. Maybe I just can't get over the idea that it's blood. I used to have no problems when I was younger but somehow I just can't do it now. And I've never liked cockles. Oh well…maybe I need to try eating them again and I'll develop a liking for them…I seem to be prescribing that to others so maybe I need to practice that myself.
As for Lorong Seratus Tahun, they have a stall in KL too and it's very good–like the Penang version but much, much more expensive! My Penang cousin eats there when she needs her curry mee fix. I can't wait to go to Penang again when it's not CNY so I can really eat at all the yummy hawker stalls. Hopefully, you'll be back next time!
I thought it was chocolate too! Are those the blood cubes??
Yes, they are the blood cubes. ;)
Last year I went to Penang, I regret I never try the local food there especially this Penang Curry Mee … look extremely delicious.
This one I will try to prepare at home. Thanks
Hi, your curry mee looks simply YUMMILICIOUS!! I'm from Penang but having since moved to KL, finding a good bowl of curry mee with pig's blood can be extremely difficult! Yes I always get scrunched faces whenever I ask whether they serve it with pig's blood :P
Intend to try out your recipe soon :) But don't know where I can buy pig's blood in KL. Anyone can help me out?
Thank you so much for sharing your delicious recipe!
Hi Bee,
May I know can I substitute rock sugar with normal sugar? Why is rock sugar used in the recipe? Thanks a million!
hi,may i ask q,what is dried shrimp?tq
I wanna make this but just wondering dried chilis or fresh red chiilies need to be used in making the soup-base?
Because in the spice paste ( is written as dried chilies) and in the method of preparation ( use fresh red chilies)..
Please advise.
Hi Bee,
I tried this recipe, :) but the curry stock was sweet..is penang curry supposed to be sweet?
How does one cook pig's blood and shape them into cubes?

First Alert Motion Sensors
The Westside Wholesale always offers the products of the highest quality for home and commercial use, including the goods, designed and produced by the First Alert. This American brand is well-known worldwide, for the products of the best prices, bringing the comfort and reducing the costs of energy. Based in Aurora, Illinois, this company is manufacturing motion sensors, smoke and fire alerts, and some other fire safety products, like escape ladders, fire extinguishers, and the flashlights.

For example, here some of the motion sensors by the First Alert are available on sale.
Why Motion Detectors? Motion sensors (detectors) are designed and manufactured for security purposes. Houses and offices of the present time must be provided not only with fire and smoke security, but also be protected from the burglars or those who are willing to invade a building intentionally. Motion sensors can detect the moving objects within the big radiuses, so they are very useful for all the types of buildings, either small or big. This kind of electrical equipment is a very good choice not only for homes, but also for big museums, archives, libraries, art galleries, exhibition halls, where security issues are of the greatest value. Furthermore, motion detectors will be very good for business security issues, even for the largest offices. This equipment will help the security guards to control the situation in business buildings and the territory around.

How to Select
How to shop for motion sensor light switch?
A motion sensor light switch is a device that detects motion in a house or office, turns on lights automatically and turns them off after a predetermined period of time when no motion is detected. The switches of this kind are great energy saving devices that help reducing the amount of electricity that is wasted in the premises, provide extra security and safety in the house and ensure perfect convenience for the residents. The switches have become essential elements of any commercial construction for more than twenty years and now they are popular devices for home applications.
There are a variety of motion detector lights available on the market today. They differ by mounting, type, style, job usage, wattage, voltage and technology applied. Before selecting and purchasing the proper light switch device that is suited for certain home conditions it is important to pay attention to type of tubes they will elaborate. Most of the switches are designed to work at standard light bulbs, but there are devices used only for light-emitting diode tubes or incandescent lamps.
In addition, it is necessary to check the wattage that the switch will need to control by adding up the wattage of all light bulbs and appliances. According to occupancy there are single-pole and three-way switches. Single-pole switch is designed to work at only one outlet or device. Three-way switches are used to illuminate several places such as opposite ends of a hallway simultaneously. It is also important to check voltage of the switch that should be compatible with the available line voltage and voltage of the devices to control.
Most of the motion sensor switches are either wall or ceiling-mounted. Wall-mounted switches are very popular as they are usually installed in place of a light switch. The mounting of this kind allows detection of moving in long distance and makes this device suited for corridors, bathrooms, basements, garages, storages and other places. Ceiling-mounted devices are designed for wide coverage area and require no calibration or adjustment. There are surface mounted and screw-in switches that are uncommon and are indispensable for special applications.
According to the technology applied, there are infrared and ultrasonic motion sensor light switches.
Infrared or passive infrared (PIR) sensors are designed to detect motion or of person or an animal during daylight or dark time and turn on the light automatically. Ultrasonic switches use ultrasonic waves to detect motion and are the best solution for the indoor applications.
Motion sensor light switches should be turned on automatically or manually while switches of all kinds turn off completely automatically. Anyway, regardless of the type, any motion detecting switch allows significant energy saving and optimum mode of operation of household appliances.

In 2000, FedEx Express and Environmental Defense began a collaboration to develop a source of new-generation delivery trucks with dramatically improved fuel efficiency and environmental impact. By 2005, prototypes had been developed by Eaton Corp., which supplied hybrid diesel-electric transmissions, and Freightliner, which integrated the transmissions into the delivery truck chassis. FedEx tested the prototypes and announced that it intended to buy 75 of the new hybrid trucks. Describes the process by which the new trucks were specified and developed and the roles of each of the organizations involved.
learning objective:
To discuss: the obstacles in bringing a hybrid truck to market (as compared, for instance, to the situation for a hybrid passenger car); the motivations of the end user, the suppliers, and Environmental Defense; the role of government in encouraging development of cleaner vehicles; contracting; the ideal number of suppliers and the impact of new suppliers on the parties involved; and the role of Environmental Defense as a facilitator.

|Chad Bettis only got three innings of work for the Rockies.
Wins and losses don't mean much on September 8th, when the playoffs are well out of reach. However, the games and the way the team plays must remain important, especially for a Colorado Rockies team that has talent, but has holes that are gaping that need to be addressed in the offseason.
The holes are so large that it makes sense for the Rockies to do everything that they can do in order to evaluate their talent down the stretch. Getting some of the questionable pieces game-action before the offseason begins is a huge opportunity that cannot be wasted.
With that in mind, the way the Rockies are going about it isn't making this team better for the future.
On Sunday, with Chad Bettis making his 8th career start, the Rockies decided to go with a game plan that involved using recently-activated Roy Oswalt in relief of Bettis after three innings. It didn't matter if Bettis was dealing, or getting rocked, the plan would be put into action.
After three scoreless innings, with just two hits, four strikeouts and no walks, Bettis left the game for a pinch hitter in the top of the 4th inning. The youngster who didn't throw a pitch at the Triple-A level was on his way to his first career victory. Instead, Oswalt came in to get his work in and try to show the Rockies or another team that he still has something left in the tank for another year.
Oswalt was fine until the 7th inning, where he allowed the Padres to load the bases without getting an out. After an out and a conversation with manager Walt Weiss, Oswalt stayed in the game, trying to induce an inning-ending double play. Instead, the veteran walked Jesus Guzman on four pitches, pushing the tying run across the plate.
At that point, Weiss made his way tot he mound and pointed for the right-hander Wilton Lopez. It was no surprise when Lopez immediately gave up a bases-clearing double, giving the Padres the lead and essentially the ballgame.
In a game that has very little patience, the Rockies show more than anyone could ever expect. After a season in which Lopez has pitched so poorly, so much worse than at any other point in his career, he continues to get the call in close games. It may be a situation where the Rockies want him to be impactful in 2014, but at some point, reality has to set it. Lopez has been awful.
What Sunday represented was the Rockies using a real live game to see what type of pitchers they have for 2014. The only problem with the way they carried it out is that they did it with the wrong pitchers. The pitcher who should be getting evaluation is the guy who started the game on the mound. The Rockies should already know what they have in Oswalt and Lopez. They don't need to see anymore of that. In fact, it is probably fair enough to suggest that Oswalt isn't good enough to be a part of a Rockies rotation that could use all the help they can get on the back end.
The Rockies have just three more chances to see what they have in Bettis. They have a chance to see if he is ready for the big league rotation in 2014 or if they need to address their need for a 5th starter via free agency. Bettis has talent, but has only shown flashes of an ability to get it done.
Sunday looked like Bettis was taking the next step. He was throwing his curveball for strikes, he was throwing his fastball for strikes, and appeared to have a confidence that he hasn't shown in his previous seven starts at the Major League level.
The Rockies are clearly in evaluation mode for 2014, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, they are going about it the wrong way. They continue to be intrigued by what Oswalt can bring to the team when he should be the last thing they are worried about.
This team continues to put faith in Lopez, when all he has done since Opening Day is proven to be a terrible addition to a team that desperately needed him to be at least decent.
The Rockies do need to evaluate their young players, but on Sunday, they showed Bettis that it was more important to use guys who have no future with the team and try desperately to make those moves look good.
It simply isn't helping the team be better for 2014.

Phoronix: Gentoo Linux 2008.0
In recent times the Gentoo Linux and its foundation has been plagued with a multitude of problems and times have certainly been challenging for this once popular distribution. It's already July and we are now finally seeing Gentoo's first official release of the year. In this article we are taking a brief look at Gentoo Linux 2008.0 and its changes.
Looks very nice
Whatever made you think we weren't? Hope you haven't been getting that viewpoint from tabloids like DistroWatch.
Also, correction to the article, which states:
This is incorrect; this has been the case for several releases now. All binary packages you install are pulled from stuff already on the CD.The Gentoo Linux installer now supports network-less installations using the packages and ebuild tree on the LiveCD.
In days past, you used to be able to use the graphical installer to perform a networked install, but in order to reduce the chance of user error, the installer has been changed to only use the packages on the CD. Sometimes users would select bad combinations of networked/networkless options despite repeated warning messages in the installer not to, and resulted in a broken system or incomplete installation. Hence why the installer was changed to operate only in networkless mode.
Anyway, yes, the release is out. Right now we offer LiveCD media, since there were weird issues cropping up with the generation of LiveDVDs, but once we get some out the door we'll announce them, too.
Also, the LiveCDs contain Xfce, which is total win for everyone.
w00T they shipped it? cool.
i'll have top upgrade my profile soon ...
yer agree with nightmorph, views on this report are not neutral.
Look at the Gentoo installCD as a liveCD in its own rights - since you can install Gentoo from an Ubuntu installCD if you wanted
and from that P.O.V. the hardware support and all that jazz is good from the LiveCD P.O.V. (with only SystemRescueCD being my fav... oh gentoo based as well and only because sysrescue comes with loads of useful tools)
man, I'm glad I'm not the only one upset by the wording in this article. Nothing to be excited about? If you know what you're doing (or are patient and can read), Gentoo itself is exciting. It takes the core idea of FOSS (choice!) and takes it to the extreme. Don't want a piece of software? Then it's not installed. Don't need functionality Y in software Z? It's not only disabled, but it's simply not there. Wonderful!
"Releases" of metadistributions like Gentoo aren't as earth-shaking as other distros (the ones that release with regularity, read: Fedora, Mandriva, Ubuntu), but that's because things are ALWAYS happening. It's just a snapshot of what's stable at the moment.
I can't wait until Debian Lenny goes stable. I bet Phoronix will have some choice words in that article.
release engineering team to avoiding the 2008.0 release any further.
Avoid delaying, you meant, I think.
And yeah, oh my, the LiveCD didn't get updated for a while. Oh teh noes. Good thing my actual install is perpetually up-to-date.
I love seeing things on Phoronix and promptly going to portage and installing them. I get Nvidia driver updates usually same day or next day, same for vanilla kernel updates and ati drivers. Everything else is up to date all the time. I never have to wait for current+1 or switch to a beta version to get a particular update.
WTF else do you need?
My only Gentoo wishes revolve around the portage wrapper scripts for installing some of the retail games. They aren't as complete as I'd like, and/or are slightly outdated. I just install using the vanilla installers and it's ok, like I assume most folks do, but it would be nice to have portage track/apply updates for me.
Currently the Gentoo ati-drivers installer yells about pci_find_slot being missing and fails, but that was fixed last ati-driver and I haven't gotten a bug filed, so meh.
Instead of saying 'OMFG NOES, what is wrong with Gentoo', why not ask yourself what is right, cause it's a longer list.
Gentoo is 'released' trough 'emerge world' on a daily basis, which fortunately isn't very exiting (if I want exciting I try ~x86). Saying that release 2008 isn't very exiting is entirely missing the point of a meta-distribution like Gentoo.Originally Posted by phoronix
if we were to mention all changes since 2007.0 - openrc and baselayout2 (new initsystem) would be one huge change.
still it should be STRONGLY mentioned that changes affect only the installer and install media.
people using gentoo on their pcs are always running up-to date distro of they update their system at least once per month. it's a rolling-release distro, not like ubuntu where you have to skip to the next release to get e.g. new gnome version.
i actually never understood the purpose of gentoo install cd, since i always installed by gentoo from knoppix dvd or archlinux ftp install cd ;-) gentoo can be installed from under arbitrary distro, it if runs the right kernel (currently it's 2.6.* i guess, because of the way glibc is built in the stage).
phoronix went really downhill on this one. posting some screenshots won't describe gentoo.
it should be a more technical article instead of hastily written copy-paste from original announcement with some random screenshots.
