The Garden Skink, Lampropholis guichenoti, is dark grey, with a darker stripe commencing in front of the nostril, continuing through the eye and above the ear onto the tail. A broad dark vertebral stripe commences about the level of the forelimbs and continues onto the tail. It has a snout vent length of up to 40 mm.
Garden SkinkPhotographer: Peter Robertson / Source: Wildlife Profiles Pty. Ltd.
The Garden Skink is the most common skink found in suburban gardens around Melbourne. It is found over most areas of the state except the semi arid northern and western regions. It lives in a variety of treed habitats.
Active by day, this is a sun loving species which feeds on small invertebrates. Females lay from 2-6 eggs in a communal nest which can contain up to 250 eggs. Females often produce more than one clutch per season.

Hi Wendy, have a look at the link below, this group should be able to assist you with NZ fauna.
Many lizards can go through winter without being cooled down, but if you want a more natural cycle or want the lizard to breed, you'll need to stop feeding it now, and after a week or so start cooling it down, without heat or lights. Once they enter brumation (hibernation), any food left in the stomach may become rancid and cause serious health problems, which is why you need to stop feeding well before cooling down.
In any case, our Live Exhibits team advise that two days without food is not a big deal for a skink, particularly at this time of year when the weather is cooling off and the skink would be reducing its food intake in preparation for brumation (hibernation). The skink should be fine as long as all other environmental conditions are suitable for that species, and if food is available it will feed when it feels the need.
Hi Joy,
Unfortunately, the Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) states that it is not permissible to take wildlife from the wild, or keep a wild-caught specimen as a pet without the correct licence. Ideally, you should release the lizard where you found it, as translocation of individual animals can disrupt local gene pools, and contribute to the spread of disease.
Hi Bron, we checked this with our Live Exhibits team, who have responded as follows:
If it's a common species, it's more likely to be a Garden Skink Lampropholis guichenoti. They will also have young this time of year, and are the most common skink around Melbourne.
If the skinks are out in the garden, then they most probably just dispersed; if they were eaten then they could have been eaten by anything. In contrast, if they were together in an enclosure then she may have eaten them herself. If she doesn't have enough to eat, and with the young having nowhere to disperse to, it's entirely possible.
Hi Lara,
The Garden Skink lives in a range of habitats, including suburban gardens, and feeds on small invertebrates such as flies, ants, moths and worms - you'll find more info here in the Museum Victoria field guide.
Hi Liz
Our Live Exhibits team have responded with the following:
The most likely reason your lizard not feeding at the moment is the cooler temperatures. Reptiles tend to hibernate (brumate) in southern Australia at this time of year, or at least reduce their activities and therefore their need for food. If it's a small species of skink, it won't consume vast quantities of food even when hungry, and even less at this time of year. But if you're concerned about the lizard's health, you should take it to a veterinarian specialising in reptiles.
Hi Izzy,
Unfortunately for your purposes it's not legal to capture native reptiles, including the Common Garden Skink (Lampropholis guichenoti), and including those in your own garden. The best option is to sit quietly in the garden on a warm day and observe them in situ.
Hi Aden,
The best answer we can give is the one we gave to Georgie on 18 January 2012. As we said then, it's very hard to tell males from females.
Hi Brinana,
In the comments above you will find lots of helpful advice on how to best provide a habitat for skinks, both in your garden and in tanks. As for the tail dropping, it is unlikely that a skink will drop its tail without being threatened as the process does cause some issues for the skink. It can affect its sense of balance, reduces its fat stores and even affects its growth and reproductive processes. Healing and regrowing the tail also takes a significant amount of energy and makes skinks more susceptible to predators as they no longer have a defence mechanism.
There are plenty of sites and discussion threads on the internet detailing the best way to keep skinks. Artificial light using a lamp designed for reptiles is better than just natural light, as you can ensure the skinks have the right amount of UV and you can control the temperature more accurately. Leaving the skinks near a window can mean they get too hot or too cold, depending on outside conditions. If kept too cold they are unlikely to be taking food at this time of year.
Hi Caitlin,
It's unlikely that the eggs would require their mother's attention, so the best option is to put them back in the ground. If you can find a piece of ground most similar to area of capeweed, and as close as possible, you can rebury them at about the same depth.
If you have a Common Garden Skink (Lampropholis guichenoti) it will be an egg-bearer, unlike many other skink species that are live-bearers. Female Garden Skinks generally produce about six eggs at a time, so if pregnant your skink will have a noticeably large belly. Other than this, there is no guaranteed way to determine if a skink is pregnant.
If the skink is in a bad state, the best option is to take it to a vet. There are quite a few wildlife vets in the UK, including a number that specialise in reptiles. Live insects are the best source of protein for captive skinks but you can also feed canned dog food, or dry dog food soaked in water. Skinks also need vegetable matter in the form of fresh fruits and vegetables. Protein should make up just more than half their dietary intake.
Hi Brian,
Skinks of all kinds do hibernate during winter in southern Australia. In the reptile world, the word 'brumation' is often used to describe this process, as some biologists assert the way ectothermic animals such as reptiles hibernate is different to that of mammals.
Hi Brodi, read through some of the response above in regards to sexing your skink. Check out the response form the Discovery Centre on January 18th 2012, or March 23rd 2012 or June 5th 2012!
Hello Rachel - we checked this with our Live Exhibits team, and they've responded as follows:
The best way to stimulate the appetite of the skinks is to offer them live prey. You can either catch some yourself, and this is a good time of year to do it, or you can buy small crickets from most pet shops. You don't mention the species of skink you have, but small individuals don't need a lot of food to sustain themselves.
Once a skink becomes adult, particularly small species, it is difficult to determine their age. Particularly because their size is due more to the amount of food they consume than how long they have been alive.
Hi Tahlia,
The answer partly depends on what type of skinks you have. Most of the smaller skinks appear quite happy living in the same enclosure, but other usually larger species will fight if males are left together. And as a general rule skinks will not be able to climb out of their enclosure, although some species can climb up the corners of glass tanks if the circumstances are right. So unless enclosure furnishings are close to the top or there is some other means of assistance, the lizards should be fairly safe without a lid.
If you do place a lid on the enclosure, you'll need to allow for UV light to enter, as all lizards require this light to remain healthy. UV light is blocked by a range of materials, including glass, so a mesh lid is preferable.
Remember too that in Victoria you must have a licence for skinks (depending on the species) and have bought them from a pet shop, otherwise it is illegal to keep them.
Hi Joseph, most fish in fish ponds tend to be live bearers and so the lizards won't be eating eggs. There aren't really any types of skinks in your area that would pose a threat to pond fish of any age. The Eastern Water Skink has a semi-aquatic lifestyle but they tend not to feed in the water, and Eastern Water Dragons might but they are distinctively different to skinks and not easily confused with them.
Hi Chloe, the fact the eggs have been laid in the enclosure suggests the adults consider the habitat you've provided to be suitable for incubation. So the best option is to leave them where they are, whilst keeping them warm and moist. Alternatively, you can remove them and place them in an incubation medium (such as vermiculite) in a shallow container, leaving about one third of the egg surfaces exposed. The container should have a lid with small holes punctured in it, the humidity should be kept high by spraying every day, and the temperature should be kept around 25 degrees celsius. The eggs will begin to shrivel if they become to dry (and also if they die). If you need more information, there are plenty of reptile discussion forums on the internet.
If the eggs hatch, you should remove the young skinks and keep them separately. They will feed on a similar diet to the adults, just much smaller quantities.
Hi Lone - in most cases a permit is required to keep native animals depending on the species, and in all cases the animals kept in captivity should come from captive stock such as from keepers or pet suppliers rather than capturing the animal yourself.
You shouldn't capture a wild native animal and keep it as a pet for a number of reasons, so we strongly reccommend you let the skink go in the same location you found it for its best chance at survival. You can read more about wildlife permits, animal welfare considerations and regulations at the DSE website here.
Hope this helps
Hi Katie, at this time of year, skinks do not need much food and will easily cope for a week whilst you're away. If you are heating the enclosure, it might help to turn the heating off so the skink becomes less active (they do that during winter anyway). Make sure you don't feed the skink for a week beforehand if you turn off the heat – this will give the skink sufficient time to digest whatever food it has in its stomach before becoming inactive.
Male Common Garden Skinks do not have a yellow belly – it could be a Three-Toed Skink or McCoy's Skink.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Hi Katie, in the wild, garden skinks would generally feed every day and can be fed daily in captivity, but will also be fine if fed every second day. You're feeding it an excellent range of food, and any one of those components can be included on any particularly day (the skink doesn't need fruit and eggs and vegetables and live prey every day). It sounds like it's being well looked after.
If you're worried about the skink's health at any time, you should take it along to the vet. There are vets that specialise in reptiles and these are listed on the internet but you can also be referred to one from your local vet.
Hi Katie,
Generally a yellow belly signifies a male, although in some species the belly of both male and female can be yellow. It depends which species you have. There are more than 40 skink species in New Zealand, so it is difficult for us to pin down the right one. The adult body length of the skink will also be determined by which species it is.
Skinks will eat small snails and finely diced vegetables as well as lettuce and banana. They also eat crickets and cockroaches and prefer to chase these around the enclosure.
Hi Pearl, many skinks have yellow bellies for at least some part of their lives, so it depends which species of skink you're referring to. For example, both sexes of the Water Skink (Eulamprus tympanum) have yellow bellies, but in other species only the male has a yellow belly and only in the breeding season. The colouring may be a warning to other males or to make them more attractive to females. If this doesn't satisfy your curiosity, send in a photo and we'll try to tell you which species you have.
Hi Holly!Yes, a female skink does need a male skink to reproduce. Depending on what species you have, it will usually lay eggs. Some species, however, do not lay eggs and give birth to young skinks.
Skinks generally require a specialised incubator and quite specific conditions for them to survive. Your set-up is reasonably good, but may not be exactly what they need. The best thing is to let them go in the garden as soon as they hatch.
A substrate of sand or cocopeat or a mixture of the two should be at least 5cm deep with leaf litter at one end that will encourage them to lay eggs. Most southern Australian species need a period of cool temperatures without a basking light and without feeding for them to hibernate if they are to breed. We don't know any other method to encourage breeding without a hibernation period.
Hi Jane, on the one hand, garden skinks definitely feed on earthworms and that's probably the reason the skink is living there - an almost limitless supply of food. Not to mention all the other small invertebrates that inhabit worm farms and would make equally good food. On the other hand, there's only so many earthworms a single skink of that size would be able to consume, so it may not have much impact on the overall worm numbers.
Hi Georgie, Garden skinks are very hard to tell male or female and so photos that guide you are not available. Some experienced owners suggest the following: if the base of the skink enclosure is a smooth dark coloured mat you may find clear waxy bits on it during spring. This depends on your skink being an adult and the presence of these waxy bits would mean it was a male.
Hi Evan, providing good habitat for your skinks is the best way to encourage them into your backyard. Giving them shelter to retreat to (such as rocks to hide under / between) and places to bask in the sun close to these retreats is ideal. They feed on invertebrates from around the garden so ensuring you don't spray too many pesticides around the garden is also important. Another factor that may help encourage skinks into your garden is to consider if there are any pets such as cats and dogs who quite enjoy chasing skinks. Keeping these animals away from the habitat you create will be important to help the skinks establish into your garden.
All the best with making a comfortable home for the local residents.
Hi Sylvia,
The rule of thumb with skinks seems to be: the bigger they are, the longer they live. Garden skinks have a short life span of only a few years, whereas somewhat larger varieties live six to 10 years, and the largest skinks can live 20 years or longer. The colder climate does slow their growth rate and results in a slightly longer life span.

Sounds interesting. I honestly have no clue how it will respond to switching with virtual terminals, but unless there's more that we haven't learned yet, it sounds like the libraries being switched are all X-related. Maybe the virtual terminal always runs off the integrated chip or something? I guess there could be something in place in the kernel drivers to handle multiplexing/demuxing the console stuff.
It'd be interesting to hear some more about how this works, but first we need to track down someone with a system that does this. Would one of the new Macbooks be an appropriate test bed for this software? I only ask because my wife may pick one of these up later this spring/summer.

About John Bunzow
Portland, Oregon native John Bunzow has been called one of the finest writers and roots-musicians on the current music scene. Producer Pete Anderson (Dwight Yoakam, Meat Puppets, Steve Forbert) said he is "... without doubt the best artist I've heard in recent times." Chicago Tribune columnist Jack Hurst cites Bunzow with mixing "the rootsy with the revolutionary."
Bunzow's new CD, Darkness and Light, on Sideburn Records, was recorded live in a friend's basement studio. "I was itching to get back to my roots music," Bunzow says, "That's the vibe I wanted - all one-take vocal and guitar parts - just as they came down live. Just like we do out in the clubs."
John started playing professionally while attending the University of Oregon at Eugene, and following college; he spent 15 years playing clubs throughout the northwest United States. In the process, his fusion of roots rock and blues garnered an extensive fan following.The end result is that Bunzow's eclectic music is a melting pot of influences ranging from Dylan to Elvis Costello to Merle Haggard and Tom Waits.

UPDATE AT 4:00 P.M. — Stephen Strasburg has been named National League Player of the Week. For these purposes, MLB starts the week on Monday, so both of Strasburg's starts were taken into consideration. He beat out, among others, teammate Adam Dunn (who only hit .455 with four homers over the same span).
DETROIT — I really don't know why this is causing so much confusion, but my email inbox and Twitter account have been flooded all day with people wanting to know when Stephen Strasburg makes his next start.
So, one last time: He starts Friday night against the White Sox. It doesn't matter that Fox picked up Saturday's game and moved it to a 4:10 p.m. start. Jim Riggleman has said Strasburg will pitch every five DAYS, not every five games until the All-Star break.
As always, this is subject to change based on weather and other factors that can disrupt a team's rotation. But barring anything like that, Strasburg will start Friday night.
Are we clear?

Crystal, Col. Jessup…Now, do you know how this will affect the Fox game if Fox choses not to broadcast the Saturday Strass-less game?Fox has exclusive broadcasting rights between 4PM and 7 PM (meaning no other network can broadcast at that time). If they choose not to broadcast the game and the Nats do not change the time of the game, we get hosed.

Why do people think Fox doesn't want to broadcast Saturday's game because Strasburg isn't pitching? I know they're not as much of a draw as SS, but JD Martin vs. Gavin Floyd is a marquee matchup! It should be a ratings bonanza to showcase these 2 teams with that talent on the mound!At least it's Zimmerman bobblehead day, that's enough to get me there.

- Mark Zuckerman - Jun 14, 2010 at 7:11 PM
If Fox keeps the game, it's on their network at 4 p.m. If they drop the game, it could not be televised by anyone else because they have exclusive rights in the 4-7 p.m. window.But it's highly unlikely they'll drop the game at this late stage. It'll be one of three games on Fox (along with Dodgers-Red Sox and Twins-Phillies) and so will probably only be shown in a small percentage of the country (including D.C.).
- logan - Jun 14, 2010 at 7:16 PM
I'll tell you why – because yesterday, both ESPN and CBSSports.com said he was starting Saturday. I am a witness.I am not surprised that ESPN would get it wrong, since they only cover the Yanks and the Sawx.

logan, they probably just counted games from Sunday. National news sources are virtually worthless when it comes to stuff like this- that's why we all come here and some of us pay Mark for the privilege. Always, always, always trust the beat writers above national reporters.Gonna be quite an evening on Friday. It's not a debut, but if anything the hype has gotten even more casual fans interested in Strasburg. And Buehrle is certainly a higher profile opponent than Strasburg's previous two counterparts, as is his team, even though they're struggling at the moment.

Speaking of schedules, Next Wednesday's game is a 4:35 scheduled start. If Stras is pitching every 5th day, it lines up for Wednesday. Both KC and DC have off days on Thursday, and niether team is traveling far (STL and BAL). I wonder if they would move the start time until 7, or if it'll still be a sellout.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_for_Me - Jun 14, 2010 at 7:36 PM
@Anonymous: No way the Nats will change starting time from that 4:35 start against KC next Wednesday. Why? Jesus, virtually unhittable at any time, will be blinding in the late-afternoon twilight. I am predicting two hits, maximum, for the Royals against Jesus.As for the Friday-Saturday confusion, seems the average Washington sports fan has trouble counting from one to five.

On that KC game on the 23rd: Does anyone know why it is scheduled for 4:30, given the fact that neither team is playing the next day and that its in the middle of interleague play, so presumably wouldn't be used to make up rainouts or anything? I'm sure the Nats will appreciate getting 48 hours between the end of a D.C. game and the start of a Baltimore game next week But it seems really weird. The Royals are just on their way home after that, so it's not a huge travel burden for them either.

So I go to the Nats' website and go to tickets and request handicapped access…says to fill out form and someone will call. Did this twice…no call. Phoned the consumer line got a nice young lady (she sounded young) and she said there were available seats in all sections. She said there would be service charge of three bucks per ticket and an additional charge up to $8.50 per ticket. Wait a minute, up to $11.50 per ticket and then the seat price? Hell with it.
- Anonymous - Jun 14, 2010 at 7:58 PM
Potentially the best part of the June 23rd game is the possibility that it ends up being Greinke vs. Strasburg. It looks like KC has been pitching Greinke every five days as well, and by my count that would lead to the match up of the two studs. Is it absurd to think this is in the realm of possibility?
- Doc - Jun 14, 2010 at 8:00 PM

Mark I was wondering if you might perhaps do a bit more coverage concerning the issues with the mound during Strasburg's start on Sunday and how it might have effected his performance.

Comments like Anon 4:21 are the reason that anonymous commenting is silly. You're gonna contradict the beat reporter/manager of this blog and everyone else here without putting any sort of name on your post? Really classy.Would it change your opinion to know that if he starts Friday, his next start is a home game that would otherwise draw maybe 15,000? Whereas if he starts Saturday his next start is on the road for the direct benefit of a man who worked for decades to keep baseball out of D.C.? Still think they'll make him wait until Saturday to go?

All you need to know to spike the Stras-starts-Saturday theories is that Fox picked up that game–and the Nats moved to the earlier start time–BEFORE Stras was called up. At least a couple weeks before. So Fox probably wasn't anticipating Strasmas III; it just wanted to show a Nats-Sox game (probably because of the likelihood that Obama shows up). Me, I've got tickets for both Friday and Saturday. But we'll be seeing Strasburg on Friday.

Hope you enjoy your time in Detroit Mark. Comerica isn't Tiger stadium but it's nice, and the people/fans nicer. Make sure and pass along how much the Nats enjoy having Pudge around.

Mark,It also just doesn't make any sense to skip a pitcher's turn in the rotation to keep Strasburg on every fifth day instead of every fifth game. What's the point of that if you're trying to save his innings? Maybe I'm missing something?
- Anonymous - Jun 15, 2010 at 12:59 AM
Jon, you're missing the fact that they don't have to skip anyone else's turn in the rotation in order to pitch Strasburg every fifth day. The other guys just get an extra day of rest is all. And an extra day of rest won't hurt any of them one bit.
- Mark Zuckerman - Jun 15, 2010 at 1:02 AM
Jon: Anonymous beat me to the punch, but he/she is right. One reason for this is to give guys like Livo, Lannan and Atilano some extra rest and keep them fresh for the second half of the season.Also, Strasburg has been on a pretty strict, five-day rotation since March (aside from an extra day here and there). The club doesn't want to mess around with that now, especially since this is the first time he's pitched every five days in his life.Finally, and this shouldn't be ignored: By starting every five days, Strasburg will make five of his first seven starts at home. That may not be the driving force behind this, but it's a nice bonus for the Nats.
- Sec$39.99 - Jun 15, 2010 at 1:17 AM
So Strasburg will practically pay for himself before the year is out. Which is exactly what Scott Boras was saying for months. And don't think he won't remind them in the Harper negotiations.

Twins tab Correia as they celebrate home opener
A's call on Kazmir, who had a 1.45 ERA in five '13 starts vs. Minnesota
After a six-game, seven-day road trip through Chicago and Cleveland to open the season, the Twins will finally be heading to Minneapolis to host their home opener at Target Field against the A's on Monday.
Right-hander Kevin Correia gets the nod for the Twins in the first game of the year at Target Field, while left-hander Scott Kazmir will take the mound for the A's.
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said his club is excited to get back and play in front of the home crowd for the first time this season.
"It will be refreshing to get home and play in front of our fans at our ballpark," Gardenhire said. "So it'll be cool."
Correia gets the start as a reward for being the club's most consistent starter in 2013, as he posted a 4.18 ERA in a team-high 31 starts. He also registered a quality start in his first outing of the year on Wednesday against the White Sox, giving up two earned runs over six innings, but was saddled with a no-decision.
"When we were lining it up in Spring Training, we thought he could handle that," Gardenhire said about Correia starting the home opener. "He's going to do his thing. He's not going to try to do too much or overthrow it. He just does this thing. He handled it pretty good last year and gave us opportunities. So we thought this was a good thing. We thought he'd be able to handle it as well as anybody."
Both the Twins and A's will also be wearing Stand Up To Cancer patches in the game as a show of support for general manager Terry Ryan and all those impacted by cancer. In addition, both teams will sport special SU2C caps during batting practice
Ryan, 60, was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in early February, and he had surgery to remove a cancerous mass from his neck on Feb. 11. He's currently undergoing radiation treatment until late April.
Before the game, Twins legends will also be on hand at their respective gates, with Bert Blyleven representing fellow Hall of Famer Harmon Killebrew at Gate 3, Tony Oliva at Gate 6, Kent Hrbek at Gate 15, Tom Kelly representing Rod Carew at Gate 29 and a Twins official representing Kirby Puckett at Gate 34.
There will also be several on-field performances, as Home Free, a local A cappella group that won Season 4 of NBC's "The Sing-Off" is scheduled to perform at 2:30 p.m. CT, and the national anthem will be performed by local singer Thomasina Petrus. The ceremonial first pitch will be thrown out by Minneapolis-based actor Barkhad Abdi, who was nominated for an Oscar for his role in the film "Captain Phillips."
A's: Kazmir dominant against Twins in '13
Left-hander Scott Kazmir was lights-out against the Twins while pitching for the Indians last year, as he went 3-0 with a 1.45 ERA in five starts. He also had an impressive first start with the A's, scattering just three hits over 7 1/3 scoreless innings against the Indians on Wednesday.
"Very pleased with how everything turned out for the first start," Kazmir said. "Something you can build on, something you can have that foundation to progress and carry on the rest of the year."
Twins: Arcia likely out on Monday
Outfielder Oswaldo Arcia is expected to have his right wrist examined by team doctors once the Twins return to Target Field on Monday, and could be placed on the disabled list if he's not ready to play by Wednesday.
"It's just day to day," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "He's taken his medicine. So we'll give him a couple days of rest, and he'll get checked out by our doctors at home. We have a day off Tuesday, and he probably won't play Monday. So we'll see how we go with this. So by Wednesday, we have to make a decision here. We can't play short. We're just not going to do that this year."
Worth noting
• Twins left fielder Josh Willingham was diagnosed with a bruised left wrist after being hit by a pitch from Justin Masterson in the first inning of Sunday's game against the Indians. He's day to day.
• Chris Colabello had four RBIs for the Twins on Sunday, and leads the American League with 11 on the season.
• Monday's game will mark the fifth year at Target Field, as the park first opened in 2010. The Twins went 32-49 at home last year.
• Fans who attend games at Target Field this season will see that trees have returned to center field, but not in the batter's eye, which caused issues during its inaugural season in 2010. This year, the Twins added Spartan Junipers higher up in center field, just below the Minnie and Paul sign.
• The A's went 6-1 against the Twins in 2013, including 2-1 at Target Field.

Angels look to right ship against red-hot A's
Three consecutive series losses is not exactly the way the revamped Angels had hoped to start their 2013 season -- a year after a well-documented poor start put the club behind the eight ball.
But that's exactly what the Halos will stare down on Wednesday when they face the red-hot A's in the second game of a three-game set at Angel Stadium.
The A's rallied against the Angels bullpen Tuesday night in a 9-5 victory and can claim a series win and Oakland's seventh straight victory when lefty Tommy Milone takes the hill.
Another streak will be on the line Wednesday night as well with A's center fielder Coco Crisp looking to extend his career-best home run streak to five games. Crisp, who hit just 11 long balls all of last season, homered Tuesday night for the fourth time in as many games.
"I don't expect him to lead the league in home runs, but he's got some power and sometimes when you get off to a good start, it could be one of those years where some things fall into place," manager Bob Melvin said. "That's not typically what we see him do, but he's seeing the ball well, elevating some balls. If you make a bad pitch to him, he's all over it."
Angels right-hander Joe Blanton will be tabbed with slowing Crisp and his former team, though he places no added importance on Wednesday's contest. He casually referred to it as "another game," but he pitched for Oakland from 2004-08 and this will be the first time facing the club.
Blanton lost to the Reds in his season debut last week, surrendering four earned runs in five frames. His role would seem to take on added importance now, in the wake of Jered Weaver heading to the disabled list for at least a month with a broken left elbow, but Blanton isn't looking at it that way.
"If my best is what it was before, it is going to be my best now," Blanton said. "I can't do better than my best, and that's what I always give."
Milone, meanwhile, allowed two homers in the first inning of his debut, but he gave up just two other hits in seven solid innings against Seattle. He'll be throwing on six days' rest.
He also may catch a break, as A's killer Erick Aybar is listed as day to day with a left-heel contusion and will likely sit. The Angels shortstop, who sustained the injury legging out an infield hit on Tuesday, is batting .321 this season and is riding an 11-game hitting streak against the A's.
Angels: Staff looks to regroup from Weaver news
Halos manager Mike Scioscia wants to make sure his starters don't press following the news that Weaver is on the shelf.
"You always put more importance on [your start] when there's a force missing," Scioscia said. "But I think the more important thing for each pitcher is to just get into their game and methodically go out there and give us a chance to win."
Righty Garrett Richards will take Weaver's rotation spot after a very impressive Spring Training that earned the 24-year-old a role in the 'pen. He has allowed one run and three hits in 4 1/3 innings this season.
A's: Reddick likely out for series
Although Josh Reddick's sprained right wrist is improving, it's likely he won't play at all in Anaheim this week.
Reddick has yet to attempt to swing, so Chris Young should handle right field duties for at least another day.
"He's pretty quick to recover," Melvin said of Reddick. "We're literally day to day. Whether it's a couple days, whether it's this series, whether he's all right tomorrow, I really don't know yet."
Worth noting
• Angels right fielder Josh Hamilton is 4-for-9 in his career against Milone with a homer and three RBIs.
• The A's are 4-0 on the road to start the season for the first time since 2008, when they won their first five games away from home.
• The Angels are the only club in baseball to play their first three series in 2013 against playoff teams from '12.

Surprisingly effective!
By Linda
from Cape Cod, MA
I have this unit placed in my living room which is an open area that reaches from front of my condo to the rear which happens to be my kitchen. I suffer from COPD and asthma and noticed a huge difference in how "light" the air felt when I woke up the next morning and left the bedroom and made the turn to make my AM coffee. It rids the area of all odor including cigarette smoke.The manual tells you to decide exactly where you want to place this and never move it around as it will release all the toxins it has collected.I am waiting on the white VOC unit that I ordered at the same time, but am very tempted to purchase another for the bedroom. I highly recommend this unit, and will update this review if I encounter any problem, and will compare it to the VOC unit that is due to arrive May 7, 2013.

Slept like a baby!
By AB
from Onalaska, WI
We had an air filter before that no longer worked, needed to keep ahead of the pet dander and dust due to allergies. This air purifier made a world of difference the first night. Have one in the bedroom and living area - breathing easier. I like that the LED light can be dimmed -- was a bit bright for a bedroom, now just a little light to see by, if needed.

We have a room that always smells moldy. We are planning on ripping the wall in question out when we begin a remodel, but that may be a while. Luckily this product was available. The room now smells great! No hint of mold so we feel safer about being in it.

shining light
By grandma
from Iowa
I did not keep this long enough to know whether it cleaned the air, because I wanted it for my bedroom. The light bothered me because I am hyper-sensitive. Really, if I were not sensitive, I wouldn't need the machine, so I think it must be possible to make such a machine with a light that turns off. Also, I don't like that it isn't supposed to be moved from room to room. It gets hot to the touch.
Pleased overall
By Thomarann
from Alberta, Canada
Cleans up a basement home theatre but is quiet so not distracting like a fan-based filter would be. For those who complain it smells for hours, it says in the instructions it will release an odour for a whole (out-gassing chemicals from the plastics) but I just ran it in my garage until that settled and it was fine. Read the instructions!

I'm getting another one for my office.
By DLJ
from Dayton OH
There was a moldy smell in my bedroom that I couldn't track down. I would wake every morning with a runny nose, congestion. After installing this: no more mold smell, no runny nose. I'm getting another one for my home office. I really like that you don't need to empty it or replace filters. I also like the blue light very much. Wish it had a longer cord.
Very Effective
By zookeeper68
from Lexington, KY
Within 2 days, we noticed a big difference in the quality of sleep we were getting. My husband who has allergies and asthma did not have the congestion that he used to get in the mornings. Great product.
By Gigi
from Sacto. CA
We sleep much better now. I feel better knowing that there are no harmful microorganisms in the house since we have two cats. I have no way of knowing if the machine is working to it's full capacity or not (nothing to check). Although I know that the air is cleaner, I wish that lingering cat odors were eliminated. It takes two weeks according to the directions to kill germs so it can't be moved from room to room.

Your "Ads by Google" are displaying text links. Just thought I'd point that out :) Hey John, absolutely love your site. I wish I had time to check more often than I do, and wish I was as prolific as you are! Could create an entire blog just telling people to check out what you're showcasing on a daily basis. Always fun to visit, for me and my kids. Keep up the good work! Adam
ReplyDeleteI've been following your blog for 2 years now. I was hoping there would be a little more about you in your bio. What city are you based out of? Is there a base or theme you have for postings? When I explain your site I just say it's a site I found where the guys seems to really enjoy the same things I do!
ReplyDeleteI love your site! There are always so many interesting pictures to look at. You must spend ages gathering stuff.
I wonder if you recognise the artist from this scan? It's from a magazine picture I've had on the wall for ages and it looks like the sort of thing you do.
http://pics.livejournal.com/grapefruitzzz/pic/002hzb78I've been following your blog for several weeks now and want to tell you how much I enjoy it. You post stuff that I never see anywhere else and it's always exciting. Having started my own blog just a couple months ago, I have a lot more respect for ones that are easy to read and well laid out. Just this morning I discovered that you've been doing double duty for me cause I would get a lot of inspiration from Toycutter when I was doing regular customs.
Best wishes - keep it up!

Craig: re: mushroom pizzas - I don't know what it is. I know you don't precook yours, you slice really thin, and you're cooking a little faster than I usually do, I think. Yet yours look cooked and mine are just limp and sweaty and boring. Blah. Just something I want to pick off and leave. I've had mushroom pizza at one local NY style place here where they slice paper thin but put a ton on, and they cook and taste good, but they're also cooking at probably 650-700 for 8-10 or more. I'm slicing mine thin but not paper thin, I guess I need to try that...? I'm using crimini. Do you toss yours in olive oil first, or salt them, or anything?
robynB, the mushroom look appealing on your pizza but a two minute bake might not cook them thru. a lot of wood pizzerias bake the mushrooms in a little oil,fresh thyme and garlic.this gives them a head start with such a short cook time.

To set up a writing station, hang these decorative medallions above the table to help it stand out. Then have guests write notes on the loose paper. Once a sheet's been filled, they can simply slide it into the plastic sleeves of an album. Voila! An instant scrapbook-cum-guestbook that later can be filled with other wedding ephemera.
What you'll need: Four sheets of paper, each cut corner-to-corner into four triangles (16 triangles total); tacky glue; 1/16-inch hole punch; needle; thread; 1-inch starburst punch. With long edge of triangle facing up, twist the right point to the left once to create a cone. Add a line of glue to left side, and press shut.
After glue dries completely, punch a hole on each side about 1/2-inch down. If using lightweight paper, reinforce the area you are going to punch with a piece of clear tape inside cone.
Thread needle, and sew through point of each cone; pull thread together. Loosely pull center; tie off. Sew through punched holes at top. Use a punch to cut starburst shape and glue to center.
Simple streamers may have looked delightful at your prom, but for your wedding, you'll want to upgrade to these buoyant, intricately designed versions. Hang them en masse, and you've got a chic way to decorate a champagne bar -- or any focal point that needs more oomph.
These number cards are a cinch to make -- and they'll add whimsy and style to your tables. Slice paper into thirds to create three 4-by-12-inch strips. Score strips across the middle with a bone folder. Then, using an oversized number stamp and gold ink, stamp the number. Centering the number may be a tricky task; our online project guide has a stamping frame to help you out.

We repeated until we had our desired length and then taped all the squares together.
Learn How to Make the Flowers advertisement
What you'll need: Cutting mat, craft knife, clear ruler, scissors, glue gun, and covered floral stem wire cut 7 inches in length. With craft knife, cut paper into 1 1/2-inch wide strips. Then, cut each strip into four 2-inch pieces and one 4-inch piece.
Round top and bottom corners of the 4-inch piece on one side. With the curved side down, roll left side to center once to form a cone shape. Glue stem to bottom of cone. Form petals by rounding opposite corners of the 2-inch pieces. Stagger and glue petals around stem.
Use multiple flowers for a bouquet or add a single stem to a place setting for a colorful touch.

I wasn't expecting this. Great news!
Phoronix: Power Management Patches For Nouveau, Finally
While the Nouveau kernel mode-setting / DRM driver has been living in the mainline Linux kernel for nearly one year and the open-source developers working on this reverse-engineered NVIDIA driver have a working Gallium3D driver (we have updated Nouveau Gallium3D benchmarks coming out during Oktoberfest), their support for NVIDIA power management has always been a struggle. The Nouveau power management situation though just received a big boost, that will hopefully lead to finally allowing your NVIDIA GPU with this open-source driver to run cooler and pull less power...
I wasn't expecting this. Great news!
Great news You can merge it without fan control at first. My laptop has no dedicated fan for the IGP alone, so it will be usable anyways.
Excellent. I've been debating over whether or not to install the blob on my laptop, but managed to hold off and stick with nouveau despite it leading to a battery life of under 45 minutes.
This is definitely the news I've been looking for.
As for the memory re-clocking... I think that only applies to discrete cards since IGP's use system memory.... so lacking memory clock control and fan control have no relevance to me since neither are applicable to my system.
The good news is, of course, that my chip is an NV40, which means that its supported, if only by the skin on its teeth (its got crooked pointy yellow teeth and bites hard).
Some IGPs anyway have some memory ... like side port on AMD/ATI GPUs which allow powersavings by not acessing system memory.
Awesome. I need the blob on my main machine for development purposes (I can't rely on Nouveau's experimental 3D just yet), but this will do fine for my other machines. Still, AMD is the future.
I really, sincerely hope that Nibitor author can help Nouveau project get much needed NVIDIA BIOS knowledge, he is good at it!
While Nouveau developers are doing very good work, I still hope that Nvidia at-least provide them with proper hardware documentation so that they (Nouveau developers) don't waste their precious time reverse engineering the official driver. I don't want/need a blazing fast driver, just fast enough for daily mainstream tasks with a bit of compositing (while I can have my games on my aging xp with scorching nvidia hardware+driver).
Can we try with an open letter to Nvidia (anyone with good writing skills) and let people sign it? May be they'll ignore it, but we should still try. Has such effort already done?

Trip-protection insurance is popular with airline passengers who worry that a change in plans could mean forfeiture of airfare, prepaid accommodations and other upfront travel costs. Many air charter customers could benefit even more from such coverage, due to the amount of money at stake. Charter operators typically assess cancellation penalties that escalate as departure times approach.
