TRUM: I’ve been everywhere man
ESPN – Mar 26, 2008
Manny: I enjoy the podcasts really. With that said it’s easier (and I generally prefer) to read your insights. As time-consuming as it is to do the podcast couldn’t you go back to writing more? I really miss the TRUM and while I read and understood your explanation why it couldn’t continue as it was you seriously need to write more. I can’t listen to the podcast at work can’t take it to the bathroom (heh) etc. Repeating myself for the last time … you are a writer first… Manny: I enjoy the podcasts really.

Scientific American – Mar 26, 2008
Turns out cheese from yaks may be heart healthy. Researchers writing in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry report that the shaggy beasts from Tibet and Nepal produce cheese that is high in polyunsaturated fat. It also has four times more conjugated linoleic acid than dairy cattle cheese. Linoleic acid may help ward off… Everest—but you can find it some gourmet food stores in the US. It may be a while before these beasts from the roof of Asia populate places like America’s Dairyland but the idea could have farmers yakking. —Steve Mirsky with reporting from Harvey Black60-Second Science is a daily podcast.

Logitech Squeezebox Duet review
Pocket-lint.co.uk – Mar 26, 2008
<br><br>You can create playlists on the fly and add selected links or tunes to a "favourites" collection for quick access later. <br><br>There are a range of extras here such as an alarm clock full search features and customisable screensavers and wallpaper. You can also fine-tune things through the account setup pages of the SqueezeCenter software adding podcast feeds configuring the wide range of plug-ins and specifying exactly how your audio collection is viewed and indexed. <br><br>It\’s impressive that Logitech offers such a wide range of content here but access to these sorts of services is nothing particularly new. <br><br>Where the Duet stands out is in the effective design of the stylish remote an excellent degree of usability and consistent performance. <br><br>Both streaming quality and pure audio quality are exceptional and with a decent home cinema setup behind it you\’ll certainly get the most from both your home collection and the range of content available online. ‘ } {button:false embeds: true}).
