Whilst children are out hunting Easter eggs, six Super Rugby teams will be on the hunt of a different kind on Saturday as the Round Seven action continues.
First up, the Highlanders host the Stormers in a top-of-the-table clash in Dunedin where the visitors will be out to continue their unbeaten run with an opening win on the road.
The injury-plagued Lions then tackle the in-form Cheetahs, with John Mitchell's pride out to end a four-game losing streak in the competition. The match in Welkom will be intriguing, considering that the Lions took the honours in the derby clash in week one.
And to end off Round Seven proceedings, two superpowers responsible for no less than ten combined titles go head to head at Loftus Versfeld.
Highlanders v Stormers
Forsyth Barr Stadium, Dunedin
The Stormers face their toughest test yet when they clash with their nearest rivals, the Highlanders, in what could be the most exciting match of the round.
That the Highlanders are amongst the leading team in the standings is somewhat of a miracle as their squad has been decimated by injuries.
At the momment coach Jamie Joseph is without the services of Colin Slade (ankle), Lima Sopoaga (shoulder), Siale Piutau (ankle), Kendrick Lynn (neck), John Hardie (toe) and Nick Crosswell (knee).
They will look to their captain Jamie Mackintosh and All Blacks flanker Adam Thomson to lead the charge up front while speedster Hosea Gear and experienced midfielder Tamati Ellison will be at the forefront of the effort amongst the backs.
Thomson is on a high after scoring a hat-trick of tries in the win over the Rebels last week and the Stormers is sure to keep a close eye on him.
With first-choice fly-half Slade and his back-up Sopoagqa out, the southerners have sent an SOS to Mike Delaney but the former Chiefs pivot will play no part in this match.
The hosts must still fancy their chances of handing the Stormers their first defeat of the competition, however, as the visitors will be feeling the effects of their strenuous journey from Cape Town.
Despite having one of the best defensive records in the competition, the Stormers' inability to score tries must be a concern for their supporters and are the only team in the competition who are yet to register a bonus point this season.
Coach Allister Coetzee is under no illusions about the magnitude of the task that awaits his team on their tour to Australia and New Zealand but is confident his charges will do well.
"It is a hell of a tough tour but we are looking forward to the challenge," he said.
Dunedin's inclement weather has been the undoing of several of the Highlanders' opponents over the years but it will not be a factor in this match as the stadium is enclosed, which means that conditions should be ideal for a free-flowing game.
It will be interesting to see how the Stormers' young brigade of lock Eben Etzebeth, flank Siya Kolisi and props Steven Kitshoff and Frans Malherbe fare in their first encounter outside of South Africa.
The quartet have exceeded all expectations with some fine performances in front of their fanatical home fans at Newlands in Cape Town and will be keen to show that they are capable of giving similar showings in unfamiliar territory.
Prediction: The Highlanders have proven to be a formidable on their home turf and must fancy their chances against the travel-weary Stormers. That and the after effects of their bruising encounter against the Bulls could be the visitors' undoing. Highlanders by five points!
The teams:
Highlanders: 15 Ben Smith, 14 Kade Poki, 13 Tamati Ellison, 12 Shaun Treeby, 11 Hosea Gear, 10 Chris Noakes, 9 Aaron Smith, 8 Nasi Manu, 7 Adam Thomson, 6 James Haskell, 5 Jarrad Hoeata, 4 Josh Bekhuis, 3 Chris King, 2 Andrew Hore, 1 Jamie Mackintosh (c).

Cheetahs v Lions
Free State Stadium, Bloemfontein
A resurgent Cheetahs team will be keen to build on their recent good form when they host the Lions in this South African derby.
The boys from Bloemfontein are brimming with confidence after some impressive performances on their tour recent to Australia and New Zealand.
They won their clashes with the Rebels and Hurricanes and secured bonus points for losing by seven points or less in their losses to the Brumbies and Crusaders.
Their 47-38 victory over the Hurricanes last weekend was a momentous occasion as it was the first time ever that they have won a match in New Zealand.
Young fly-half Johan Goosen has been one of the stars competition so far this season and is currently the tournament's leading points scorer. After six rounds of action, Goosen has 98 points and he is should become the first player to notch 100 points for the season in this match.
Despite their successful overseas tour, Cheetahs coach Naka Drotsk� believes his side can still improve.
"Our season has been up and down and we have mixed feelings about the results," he revealed.
"But it was a tough start - we've played five out of our first six games away from home.
"I do feel, however, that we should've won our games against the Lions and the Brumbies - we lost both of them through late penalty goals.
"Now we have 10 games in South Africa and seven in Bloemfontein to look forward to. We are improving each week and know we need to win our home games," added Drotsk�.
The Lions are a shade of the side that won last year's Currie Cup and have it all to do against a Cheetahs team that have been the surprise packages in the competion this year.
Although injuries have played it's part in the Johannesburg-based side's poor start to the campaign, the 2011 Currie Cup champions have struggled to adapt to the rigours of Super Rugby.
They have showed a steady decline after beating the Cheetahs 27-25 in their season opener at the Coca-Cola Park in Johannesburg. After that triumph, they suffered consecutive defeats to the Hurricanes, Sharks and Stormers although they were competitive in all of those matches.
They will depend largely on the kciking boot of fly-half Elton Jantjies whose duel with Goosen could determine the outcome of the match.
Coach John Mitchell knows a tough ask awaits his charges this weekend."We're prepared as well as we can for this game and we have a specific way in which we want to play," he said.
"The Cheetahs would've returned from their tour with a lot of confidence and are playing well and we fully respect them for that."
Prediction: Even though the Lions won the corresponding fixture earlier in the season, home goround advantage and current form will swing things in the Cheetahs' favour.Cheetahs by six!
The teams:
Cheetahs: 15 Hennie Daniller, 14 Ryno Benjamin, 13 Robert Ebersohn, 12 Andries Strauss, 11 Willie le Roux, 10 Johan Goosen, 9 Piet van Zyl, 8 Philip van der Walt, 7 Ashley Johnson, 6 Heinrich Br�ssow, 5 Izak van der Westhuizen, 4 George Earle, 3 WP Nel, 2 Adriaan Strauss (c), 1 Coenie Oosthuizen.
Replacements: 16 Hercu Liebenberg, 17 Trevor Nyakane, 18 Andries Ferreira, 19 Justin Downey, 20 Tewis de Bruyn, 21 Sias Ebersohn, 22 Philip Snyman.
Lions: 15 Jaco Taute, 14 Deon van Rensburg, 13 Alwyn Hollenbach, 12 Butch James, 11 Andries Coetzee, 10 Elton Jantjies, 9 Tian Meyer, 8 Josh Strauss (c), 7 Derick Minnie, 6 Cobus Grobbelaar, 5 Franco van der Merwe, 4 Paul Willemse, 3 Patric Cilliers, 2 Martin Bezuidenhout, 1 Caylib Oosthuizen.
Replacements: 16 Callie Visagie, 17 Ruan Dreyer, 18 Marius Coetzer, 19 Etienne Oosthuizen, 20 Michael Bondesio, 21 Lionel Mapoe, 22 James Kamana.
Referee: Mark Lawrence (South Africa)
Bulls v Crusaders
Victory will be non-negotiable for the Bulls as the men from Pretoria look to avoid back-to-back losses when they host the Crusaders in arguably the clash of the weekend.
After last weekend's defeat in Cape Town, the three-time Super Rugby champions know they need a positive result against the seven-time champs to avoid falling out of the top six on the overall log.
The Bulls' never-say-die attitude was patent at Newlands last week after going down 20-17. They won the second half 17-6, and while they will take heart from that rearguard performance, they will know that consistency will be king against a Crusaders side that is as dangerous up front as they are out wide.
Though if the home side give away too many kickable penalties like they did against the Stormers again this week, the Crusaders will also take advantage. The visitors will also have to be on their best behaviour because the Bulls have Morne Steyn's reliable radar to count on.
Last year the Bulls didn't even bother the scorers against the Crusaders when they lost 27-0 in Timaru, but the Kiwi outfit haven't beaten their South African counterparts in the Republic since 2008.
In fact, the Bulls have the second best home record out of any South African franchise against the Crusaders, having won six from 10 of these games (the Cheetahs have only played the Crusaders three times in Bloemfontein since the Cats split before the 2006-season, and won twice).
The Crusaders haven't been setting the tournament alight so far either. Last week the 2011 finalists did just enough to beat the Lions in Johannesburg and they were sloppy against the Cheetahs the previous week. A big improvement is needed this week if they wish to climb further up the Super Rugby ladder.
The Bulls though have no obvious weaknesses, boasting the best defensive ledger early in the competition while scoring tries is no problem, with their 19 registered second overall. But one wonders if their depth will be tested as the season progresses considering they still haven't appeared to have suffered with the departure of nearly 700 Super Rugby caps last season.
A titanic duel awaits!
Prediction: By far the toughest Round Seven match to call. History favours the Bulls at home, but write the Crusaders off at your peril! We're thinking a draw, but if we have to pick a winner... Bulls by six!
The teams:
Bulls: 15 Zane Kirchner, 14 Akona Ndungane, 13 Johann Sadie, 12 Wynand Olivier, 11 Bjorn Basson, 10 Morn� Steyn, 9 Francois Hougaard, 8 Pierre Spies (c), 7 Jacques Potgieter, 6 CJ Stander, 5 Juandr� Kruger, 4 Flip van der Merwe, 3 Werner Kruger, 2 Chiliboy Ralepelle, 1 Dean Greyling.
Replacements: 16 Bongi Mbonambi, 17 Frik Kirsten, 18 Wilhelm Steenkamp, 19 Arno Botha, 20 Jano Vermaak, 21 Louis Fouch�, 22 JJ Engelbrecht.
Crusaders: 15 Israel Dagg, 14 Sean Maitland, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Ryan Crotty, 11 Zac Guildford, 10 Dan Carter, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Sam Whitelock, 4 Luke Romano, 3 Owen Franks, 2 Corey Flynn, 1 Wyatt Crockett.
Replacements: 16 Quentin MacDonald, 17 Ben Franks, 18 Tom Donnelly, 19 Luke Whitelock, 20 Willi Heinz, 21 Tom Taylor, 22 Tom Marshall.
Referee: Jaco Peyper (South Africa)

Amazing Product
By Stormy's Grandma
from Brick, NJ
I was unable to sleep through the night for the past 2 years (after undergoing major surgery, then spending 2 weeks at a sub-acute rehabilitation center where they would wake me up for their procedures in the early am hours). Most nights I tossed and turned for hours, maybe getting 3 to 4 hours of sleep, before having to get up and leave to go my office. I received delivery of this unit on July 8, 2013 and plugged-in this device that same night. This Sound Generator helped me immediately and I cannot believe how much better I am sleeping now. Not only am I getting 6 hours of sleep before I wake up to go to the bathroom, I can fall back to sleep immediately for another 1-1/2 to 2 more hours. I now wake up and start each day feeling fully rested not groggy.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have bought this product many times.
By Lady E
from Staten island NY
I have bought at least 10 sleep sound machines for family and friends who have trouble sleeping. They rave about it and have never felt so well rested. I take every opportunity to inform anyone who can't sleep to purchase this machine.

I have one in each bedroom.
By Sharon
from Clovis, New Mexico
We have used these for years. First use was in 1988 when my husband had a stroke and had to rest during the day. Neighbors dogs kept him from resting well and we ordered one of the sleep machines to mask the outside sounds. It worked and we have used them ever since.
Perfect match for children's room
By Heather
from Charleston, SC
I bought two for each of my children's room...they are great and very easy to move and/or travel...some could say they could be louder but for its purposes they work just fine.

amazing!...everything I wanted it to be!
By nova resident
from McLean, VA
I first saw this device in a doctor's office where it was placed in a waiting room to block out conversations between the doctor and patients from the waiting room. Excellent idea! It worked. After many sleepless nights from my wife's cat's interminable meowing at all hours, I remembered this device and thought I'd give it a try for myself. BEST DECISION I'VE EVER MADE!!! It blocks out the cat completely and even other noises like birds chirping outside--perfect for anyone who's a light sleeper. Other people posting who've complained it's too loud need just move it a little further away, no big deal. I was so tired of ear plugs. My quality of life has increased dramatically from this device. Thank you a million times over!!!!!
The best sound machine!!
By Ping
from South Bend, Indiana
I love this little machine, and I've had one for over 30 years. (Regrettably the last one got left in a hotel in Panama!) Highly effective, and I like that it just does what it does simply and well. No ocean or bird songs or croaking frogs, no computer generated sounds which invariably have a pattern that I tend to focus on.
This is the second one I've bought
By Rich the Beast
from Urbandale Iowa
I use it when I sleep. It drowns out noises that would keep me awake. It makes the same sound as a box fan.This is my second machine. I still use the 1st one but it's about 25 years old and I want to have a replacement for it.
Love our Sleep Sound Generator!
By Sandy
from Duck, NC
The constant sound from our sleep sound generator helps ward off tv or other noises from other rooms. We have bought them for our children and grandchildren and always make it available for our guests. Everyone who uses it loves it! Easy to travel with.
Great purchase
By Lola
from Kenai, AK
This little gadget is one of the best purchases we've made in a long time. Finally kicked the fan out of the bedroom and replaced it with this sleep sound "generator"......so no more cool air blowing around the room at night and waking up with a stuffy nose.The lower level of sound is sufficient to drown out my snoring husband.Love the small size so we can take it for hotel room stays when traveling.Haven't had it long enough yet to see how durable it is with everyday use, but so far it's a real keeper!
This was the sixth I've purchased.
By Susan
from Aurora, OH
I purchased the first sound generator more than a decade ago for my daughter who was working nights, had to sleep during the day, and she lived near an airport! It's still running strong. I gave one as a baby gift to my niece. They love it! My dog sleeps with one over his crate to help drown out thunderstorms. Generally, I don't take the time to write reviews, but this is a product I wholeheartedly endorse!!!

WASHINGTON - His name is Pumpkin, but staffers at Prince George's Animal Management Facility are calling him a hero.
Retired firefighter Lt. Billy Mills was running errands when he spotted smoke. He headed towards the fire, and when he got there, a black lab mix raced up to him.
The barking dog led Mills straight to a sliding glass door where he saw a disabled woman trapped inside the burning home.
While crews worked to bring the fire under control, Mills pulled the woman to safety.
The woman is currently recovering from burns and smoke inhalation, and Pumpkin is being housed at Prince George's County Animal Management Facility.
Rodney Taylor, chief of Prince George's County Animal Management Facility, describes Pumpkin as an awesome dog.
"Pumpkin has the whole staff excited about what he's done," says Taylor. "The staff is just loving on Pumpkin today."

The Strategy for Winning a Democratic (Progressive) Election
The last part of the Barack Obama advertising campaign in which had the ability to allow it to be extremely powerful had been the actual mobilization while using youngsters' election. For many years, governmental professionals as well as strategists experienced reported the evident apathy related to adolescent voters. Their particular point was that any politician that can utilize in which voting possible would likely in the end triumph.
However, the same analysts in addition to strategists published the main cause away as improbable; talking about the inability of several previous competitors who acquired attempted to do this. The actual Obama campaign method changed each of the. Although the president's method would not disregard the football mothers, Dale Earnhardt dads, and also senior voters of the nation, they spent a lot of his / her period campaigning university aged voters. His give attention to wish attracted the actual idealistic technology, and in addition they appeared in groups upon political election morning. In with the youth political election, the Barack Obama marketing strategy created essential surf, and hang up an illustration regarding people in politics in the future.
As Examiner reported Nov. 6 from a unique interview, Ipsos pollster Julia Clark discussed how Obama's declining approval numbers might affect his power to work with Congress and just how his denial of ever saying Americans can keep their health-care plans might impact Democratic incumbents within the November 2014 midterm elections.
How many Votes Does the Union Have to Get to Win the Election? In order to win the election, the union must have the votes of the simple majority in the eligible voters who cast ballots. Either the union or employer can exercise the right to object to the final results of the election on the understanding that it was not conducted fairly or that unlawful activity by the victor occurred before or through the election.
There are also democratic (progressive) campaign elections around the world:
Shri L K Advani is now the Leader in the Opposition inside the Lok Sabha, along with the Prime Ministerial Candidate from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) to the 2009 General Elections.
As you can see, it's not so easy to win democratic elections worldwide. It takes hard work and resilience.

The sense of going on a journey with a brilliant and entertaining companion, of feeling like you are never sure why the conversation is veering in this new direction, yet being confident that there is a good reason for it, is the strongest sense which I got from this lovely new book by Marcus du Sautoy.
Maths for mums and dads by Rob Eastaway and Mike Askew. This book is an absolute triumph. Given the authors' reputations, I would expect nothing less, so it is something of a relief to be able to write that first sentence.
Sustainable energy - without the hot air by David MacKay A lot is written about energy efficiency and renewable energy, but do the sums add up?
I am the first person to admit I don't have an artistic bone in my body. In fact I find it difficult to think visually at all, let alone imagining shapes and structures in three dimensions.
In these days of debates on climate change we're often reminded of that other great clash between science and authority, the staunch refusal by the Catholic church to accept that the Earth moves around the Sun.
There has been a recent spate of books in honour of Martin Gardner, who has spent over half of his 95 years entertaining us with his recreational mathematics.

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff

She's going to be dead in 3-5 chapters
The Juubi gets revived and you're waiting for an explanation of what happened to Tsunade? Who cares lol
I really doubt there is a slug sage mode honestly it hasn't even been hinted at...

I do.
She is probably thinking: Wtf? How did we end up lying on the ground. xD

nope, go read the manga again, dead people don't talk, you know
No, finally that fodder is going to die.
The manga is gonna be disawesomized if she is gone so Tsunade you gotta hang in there:scorps:

I personally love Tsunade and she is really has to live but Kishi wont let he live. She'll die soon after she heals the kages. Maybe because she'll use some kinjutsu or from over exhaustment. It will be really nice if she lives

You created a thread, everyone can post if you like it or not. Next time you may think about it if opinions hurt so much for you?
Learn what opinion is please, and also what a troll is when you have started.
And by the way slug princess, there is no slug mode. She showed us Byakugō which was the last power-up for her.
What makes you think she doesn't have it??? She could be just keeping it because it wouldn't have helped in the battle with Madara. She never has said that she can or cant do the Slug Sage !!! We can only wait for Kishi's words.
wait for the manga ... last tym she seen is her body cut into half...
As much as it's most likely true that she will die healing the other kage, it's kind of sad when there is no real chapter about it.
I mentioned it before, it's tiring how every other character became unimportant, even people who were always very important like the kages.
If they die or if only one of them dies, it needs some boss chapter. Seriously, they deserve it but the way things look like at the moment, we will see alot of juubi and Naruto and Madara episodes.
I feel sorry for all the fans of other characters. I can understand how that is driving you nuts, Slug Princess, and I hope you will get answers soon. At least our Tsunade deserves a boss ending and not some lame one phrase explanation from Madara and story over.
It's also a bit unrealistic to show someone (main character) dying, then not talk about it anymore for a full year of chapters.

In the late 1980s, the City of Texas City realized the necessity to diversify and stimulate its economy and began to aggressively develop an economic development strategy. The strategy contemplated having a versatile inventory of integrated economic development vehicles available to exploit the City's numerous assets and accommodate any economic development project requirement. Accordingly, several local government corporations, that have specific economic development missions and resources, have been created to interact, share resources and collectively pursue economic development projects. Other vehicles have also been implemented to provide a holistic approach to economic development within the City. The strategy is working and the City is proactively achieving its goals.
Texas City is fortunate to have a diversified economy. Heavy industry is the largest and was, since the 1900's, the City's only economic engine until the City's economic development strategists realized the City's vulnerability and began diversifying the economy. Now, the City's economy is driven by several industries including residential, commercial, retail, marine, entertainment and environmental developments, higher education, tourism, health care, sports, transportation, birding, fishing, boating and restaurants. This diversification evolved from the City's economic development strategists who created the numerous economic development vehicles that are available to accommodate the requirements of economic development projects.

Ashley and Dustin are an attractive and sweet couple that I feel fortunate to have gotten to work with. One thing I really admired about the two of them was how calm and cool they were all day. Rain or shine, they were gonna have a good time and enjoy the moment. Take a look at their short film below to see just a few of the best moments.
Here are some images from the day. These aren't real stills, they're just screen grabs from the video. If you want to see some really amazing still photography, check out Mike Reed Photo.

Changed the video settings now all I have is a black screen

Post subject: Changed the video settings now all I have is a black screen
Hello Everybody
I have successfully installed BLAG10K on my Home computer, but only using 800x600 screen resolution I tried changing it to 1024x768 through the screen resolution program when I rebooted all I get is a Black screen. How do I access my config file again? I tried booting knoppix but it seems to have no permission to change the Xconfig (I can't remember the exact name of the config file, I'm at work at the moment and I don't have Net access when at home)
All help I appreciated

To set up the display, run:
(note in 20k this is system-config-display).
The configuration files are in /etc/X11. The main one in blag10k is XF86Config (it's xorg.conf in 20k).
To get a console, you can hold down: ctl-alt-f1 (or f2, f3, etc).

Ok I did what you told me. Now I can change the resolution in the display settings, but when I use the ScreenResolutionPreferences all it gives me is 640x480 resolution and no other choice. I can't even get back to 800x600
I'm using an Intel 845 video card and IBM 6331 E54 monitor. (autodetected)

Post subject:
OK. So when you run `redhat-config-xfree86` while running Xwindows (in the GUI) there is a "Hardware" tab. Select that. Then you can pick your exact video card and exact monitor then you should have more resolution choices. You /may/ have to tell it how much video ram you have as well.

Post subject:
Yes I understand, I put Autodetected in my comment bescause Blag already detected my correct hardware, and it already shows me the complete resolutions in the SystemSettings->Display dialog box, but when I go to Preferences->ScreenResolution the only entry for the Resolution dropbox is 640x480. I deleted my XF86Config file for it to autogenerate but the problem persist.
Note: when I go to the console and press alt+F8 all I get is a black screen, when I press alt+F7 I return to the GUI is there something wrong?

Why not just select a generic monitor at 800X600. This is what I had to do. Also you could try the same thing for the 1024x768 resolution

That is normal behaviour. There's nothing on alt-F8 by default, F7 is Xwindows and the first 6 are consoles.

Still no luck, I wonder what is the problem. I successfully Installed on a Laptop (IBM E600 - with a sound problem that I have yet to consult here) and a PIII desktop with no problems.
What really bothers me is that at the Display Settings dialog box I can choose the resolution I want, yet when I go the the ResolutionPreference (I setting that get used I think) dialog box it won't show the other resolutions just the 640x800.
I even tried using a VESA driver but still no luck.
Maybe I'll try swapping monitors...

did you try chris' suggestion of "generic monitor 1024x768" or "generic monitor 800x600" or whatever rez you want?

Yes I did that but no luck :( . Swapping monitors don't help either. Maybe its the video card. I tried VESA driver but it won't display just black screen (back to square one). I wonder if there are compatible drivers for my card. XF86Config files says
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Intel 845"
Many thanks

Hmm, that video card should be working fine, especially in VESA mode since everything can do that. EVERYTHING is vesa compatible, at least in peecee land. Soooo, sounds a bit like a dodgy video card. Hmmm.

Very doggy yes... but its working fine in WinXP (I dual boot)..... Maybe I'll have to reinstall (a very windowsworldprocess - you know if you can't fix it reinstall it :wink: )
Posted: Mon Sep 06, 2004 1:17 pm
Post subject:
You have:
Driver "i810"
Have you changed this to:
Driver "vesa"
and then go into the monitors section and choose "800x600"?
You should not have to re-install. I don't think this will help. If your card is working under the dual-boot, its probably not the card itself. But /everything/ should be able to do vesa mode...

I tried it, but still black screen. I'm really getting irritated with this. it is so annoying surfing the web in 640x480. and sometimes i can't see the ok button of dialog boxes that @Q#$@%!#$%#!%.
Anyway i gues this is just one of those times where in you just can't do noth'n else but give up.
Ok so this computer will be dedicated to XP. toooooo bad.
Thanks anyways

You've caught me up as a bit of a poseur. I've read that statement more than ten times and I still can't "wrap my head around it".
I've never met nor even read Quine, though I've heard of him. I got the thing about self referencing sentences from a popular philosophical work by a logician whose name I can't remember and my library is in such a mess that I'm not even going try to find it. The example he used was quite a bit easier than Quine's:
"This statement is false"
Is that statement true or false?

I don't see that whole matter as inconsistence, but as lack of explanation. And it is important for the FSF to clarify its move as a bunch of human beings are closely following their acts & guidelines.
When I first heard about rms, I was impressed with him and wrote him an email. The first part of the email was:
ewl to rms wrote:
I have great respect for your stance on free software and personally I
try to comply with it. I have been a user of GNU/linux for about two
years now. My favorite distribution is slackware, which I know you
list as containing unfree components. Instead of switching to ututo,
which is totally free, is it possible to just uninstall the unfree
components from slackware in order to remain 'free software
to which he replied:
rms wrote:
Yes it is. If it is just a matter of avoiding non-free software
yourself, that will do the job.
The second part of the email:
ewl to rms wrote:
As a matter of fact, why couldn't somebody go through all the major
distributions and create free distributions of them, distributing them
as "free Debian" or "free slackware" ?
to which he responded:
rms wrote:
It would be a lot of work, and it would not really do the job very
well. If you suggest people use "free slackware", most of them will
forget the "free" part and go use slackware, and many of them might
use the non-free programs.
So one needs to make a different name, as well as changes.
This is more or less what we are already doing--but there is no need
to do it for *every* distro.
That really clarified, for me, what their position was. If I were motivated to go through my distro, investigate the licenses of all the packages and uninstall the non-free ones, then that would be consistent with the fsf effort to avoid the use of non-free software. But it's a hell of a lot easier for me to use Blag or gNewSense where the developers do all the work for me.

At the end of the day, I'll listen to the FSF, whether or not I like it, because it is the voice that speak against the propaganda form the mutinationals...

I was just reading this :
written by Linus, and I must admit that the guy makes sense !
Was the point to alienate people by showing how we're less about the
technology than about licenses?
The silly thing is, the people who tend to push most for this are the
exact SAME people who say that the RIAA etc should not be able to tell
people what to do with the music copyrights that they own, and that the
DMCA is bad because it puts technical limits over the rights expressly
granted by copyright law.
Doesn't anybody else see that as being hypocritical?
So it's ok when we do it, but bad when other people do it?

I totally agree with him, and he does have a right to be upset
they are using his brainchild as a weapon of conform. The point of GNU/Linux was freedom, not another set of rules and regulations.
tl;dr version:
Don't treat the GPL like Born-Again Baptists treat the Bible.

I agree and disagree with you. I'm not a purist, or I'm not a very good purist. But if it weren't for Richard Stallman's push for free software we'd all be using proprietary systems, like Windows or MacOS. If it weren't for the GPL Linux, if it ever got started, and I doubt Linus would have bothered writing a kernel if all the other tools for making a system weren't already there, it would probably have ended up being part of some proprietary project like solaris or sco unix . If gnu/linux starts relying on proprietary components then it's future will be decided by those components and not by the desires of the users and developers. RMS is a hardass about licenses, but I think that's a good thing. It allows the rest of us to slide a little if we want too. ;)

Maybe you can help shed some light on this. Without crushing blows any more, how is that affecting the usefulness of block rating?
It's always kind of bothered me when people talk about their avoidance and lump block rating in, though I assume this all started because of crushing blows.
So now we have miss+parry+dodge, which diminish on their own, and block which seems to diminish based on how hard the boss hits, such that it feels like block rating is more an OT stat and maybe a MT should push more towards stam or real avoidance. I just have a hard time placing its usefulness, especially since it scales largely based on how hard the boss is hitting you.
Any insight would be helpful!

Soundbar technology just keeps getting better. Harman Kardon is hoping to further the category a little more with new digital sound processing technology and its upcoming SB 30 soundbar package.
Besides what the unit is packing on the inside, the SB 30 comes with a slick soundbar and a wireless subwoofer. Designed for use with movies, sports or video games, this sound system can supposedly be optimized for room size and listener location.
The customization comes from the SB 30's two listening modes; one is Virtual and the other is Wave. Both promise different surround-sound effects out of this compact package. For example, Virtual can give a nice boost to traditional two-channel stereo sources, while Wave pumps up left and right surround fields for larger rooms—or content.
Of course, a soundbar can't reproduce the same sound as a 5.1 system. However, HK delivers a great virtual effort, via a triple-core digital signal processing (DSP) array, which features 13 transducers, six 2-inch woofers, seven 1-inch tweeters and 11 amplifier channels.
Adding to the experience is the compact subwoofer, which can be placed easily, thanks to wireless technology and a down-firing bass reflex design. Other features include Dolby Volume to maintain sound levels and a dual-position EQ switch.
"With revolutionary digital sound processing capabilities, the Harman Kardon SB 30 soundbar will overwhelm the competition and redefine how surround sound is experienced at home," said Sachin Lawande, who holds the company's title of executive VP, chief technology officer and co-president of Lifestyle and Infotainment. "The soundbar is perfect for the modern home, where so much of our entertainment content comes from an HDTV, and there is strong consumer desire to optimize sound for movies and video games. The design of the SB 30 features the understated elegance Harman Kardon is known for and, combined with new DSP technologies and a wireless subwoofer, provides a vibrant sound system that is as unobtrusive as it is clean."
There's no word on when Harman Kardon will start selling the SB 30. When it launches, look for an MSRP of $799.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Durey: Songs

Orpheus poem 1: Orphée Admirez le pouvoir insigne
Orpheus poem 2: Orphée Regardez cette troupe infecte
Orpheus poem 3: Orphée Que ton cur soit lappât et le ciel, la piscine!
Orpheus poem 4: Orphée La femelle de lalcyon
The collection of quatrains making up Apollinaire's 'Bestiaire', illustrated by Dufy's woodcuts, had scarcely been published. Without consulting each other at all, ignorant of our respective projects, Francis Poulenc and I took hold of these texts and set them to music, mine begun a little bit earlier and finishing later, framing those of my friend. But whereas Francis set only 12 of the pieces (of which he retained only 6), I devoted my energy to the whole of these 26 little poems.
It was not as easy as it looked at first glance, because, though some of them called irresistibly for music, others, on the contrary, proved more daunting for me: I managed to get through these (La Chenille, Le Poulpe, Le Paon, La Colombe) helped by the strictest simplicity.
I think La Chèvre du Thibet and La Carpe can be paralleled with the same settings of Francis. I particularly like Le Chat for its intimate tenderness, Le Lièvre and Le Lapin, La Souris, La Sauterelle. I also believe that, in La Tortue, Le Cheval, Ibis, La Méduse, Les Sirènes, I have enlarged the frontiers of the poems and opened the imagination to more distant and immense horizons.
(Louis Durey, from his Catalogue Commenté, translation by Isabelle Battioni)
This version of Le Bestiaire is full of unusual and ingenious pianistic touches. The composer has a way of capturing the behaviour or movement of an animal with deft conjuring tricks between the accompanist's hands. One thinks of the strut of Le Cheval, the slither of Le Serpent, the grace of Le Chat and the lolloping gait of Le Lapin where right-hand quavers seem to spring from the spread left-hand chords. There is an immensity about L'Éléphant; one can almost hear the earth thundering under his feet. La Mouche is worthy of Bartók's Diary of a fly, and La Puce not only jumps, it bites. The friendly grace of the dolphin is perhaps better caught than in Poulenc's jollier setting of Le Dauphin, and Le Poulpe throws its ink into the water with the simplest of pianistic means. A personal favourite is the way the accompaniment of La Colombe captures the repetitive coo of the dove. There is a similar felicity about the way the mournful call of the owl is evoked in the grave phrasing of the piano writing in Le Hibou.
There is also a version of this work (Op 17b, as late as 1958) for voice and twelve instruments (two flutes, oboe, clarinet, horn, bassoon, string quintet and piano or celesta).

An interview with key executives of Duke-American Transmission Co.: Phillip Grigsby, president, and Randy Satterfield, executive vice president. Both also sit on DATC's Board of Managers.
Grid Futures
Evolutionary directions for electric system architecture.
the electric grid in the 20th century as a public good and symbol of societal connectedness would fade into history like public telephones or canal barges, perhaps giving way to new, as yet unimagined infrastructures.
Scenario Signposts
What can we learn from this exercise? In general terms, the scenario analysis provides a framework for observations about current trends, as well as for discussions of relative merit, preferences, and policy implications. First of all, which scenario do we appear to be in, today? It might be possible to identify signposts that indicate which scenario is presently unfolding, or about to unfold, potentially preventing some surprise down the road. Second, does any one scenario appear most or least desirable? For professionals in the field of electric power transmission, it might be tempting to jump to the conclusion that the "T-Rex" scenario of Quadrant IV represents a tragic loss. Nevertheless, it isn't obvious prima facie which scenario might offer the greatest social benefit, or benefit-cost ratio. An important continuation of the exercise would be to ask what each scenario might imply for society, and under what assumptions and conditions. Other questions would involve what planning or investment strategies might be most advantageous to implement in any given scenario, and by whom, along with what technologies and policies would be most desirable.
This exercise has also provided the opportunity to make more specific observations related to the different scenarios. One observation is that while the extent to which power systems will rely on transmission capacity is uncertain, distribution plays a major role in each scenario. Furthermore, technological innovation in distribution systems might proceed somewhat independently of innovation in transmission. Investment in distribution technologies and systems should therefore be a no-regrets strategy, as returns on such investment might be largely independent of which scenario becomes reality.
Perhaps the most striking observation is that the "beefy" scenario of Quadrant I is the one that in effect imposes the most definite limit on the amount of central station generation that can be utilized. This is due to the intrinsic stability limitations of synchronous AC systems, which would be overcome by solid-state switching technology in Quadrants II and III and by substitution of other energy carriers in Quadrant IV. Therefore, one take-away lesson is that "building ourselves out of" the constraints that presently appear to limit the growth of central-station generation, by simply adding more conventional transmission capacity, might not ultimately be the way to accommodate the most of such resources.
Yet there appears to be a focus in the industry today on overcoming the considerable hurdles to getting transmission projects built, and a national Interstate-highway type of grid (establishing rights of way by eminent domain) is under discussion in policy circles. These efforts can be seen as signposts that our industry currently finds itself in Quadrant I, pushing in the upward direction toward building out the capacity (rather than to the right, toward substituting technology). The scenario analysis exercise suggests it may behoove the industry to focus more attention and efforts on technological innovation, especially given the likely limitations
