The Bulls have included Francois Hougaard and Johann Sadie in their line-up for Saturday's clash with the Reds.
Hougaard missed the third round defeat to the Blues due to suspension but he returns to replace the benched Jano Vermaak.
Sadie, who was absent from the previous two matches after suffering from a shoulder injury, replaces Francois Venter at outside centre.
Coach Frans Ludeke has admitted the Reds will be the biggest challenge his side has faced so far this season.
"They are the champions and that will be how high the bar will be set. We will have to deliver a championship performance if we want to beat them," he said.
"The effort against the Blues was below par and we know that. We worked hard to be accurate on the weekend and to create and convert chances."
The Reds have made several changes ahead of Saturday's clash, with a first start for fly-half Dallan Murphy.
The 23-year-old will earn his second Super Rugby cap, making his debut in 2011 against the Chiefs, after successful campaigns as captain of Brothers and various Queensland A squads.
Coach Ewan McKenzie said: "Dallan has been in our system for a long time and we have every confidence in his ability to get the job done. We've played around with our options at fly-half this year but Dallan is a natural number 10 so I'm looking forward to seeing what he can offer."
The 2011 Super Rugby champions have made seven changes following their 22-27 loss to the Sharks last weekend, bringing a revamped side to Pretoria.
McKenzie has transformed the Reds' front-row with Hooker Saia Faingaa making his first start of the year, moving Greg Holmes to tight-head and Ben Daley promoted from the bench to loose-head.
Luke Morahan steps in for suspended winger Digby Loane, while forwards Rob Simmons and Jake Schatz regain their spots at lock and number eight respectively.
Ben Tapuai moves to inside centre, with Jono Lance at outside centre, and outside back Nathan Eyres-Brown could earn his Super Rugby debut after being put on the bench.
Bulls: 15 Zane Kirchner, 14 Akona Ndungane, 13 Johann Sadie, 12 Wynand Olivier, 11 Bjorn Basson, 10 Morné Steyn, 9 Francois Hougaard, 8 Pierre Spies (c), 7 Jacques Potgieter, 6 CJ Stander, 5 Juandré Kruger, 4 Flip van der Merwe, 3 Werner Kruger, 2 Chiliboy Ralepelle, 1 Dean Greyling.
Replacements: 16 Willie Wepener, 17 Frik Kirsten, 18 Wilhelm Steenkamp, 19 Arno Botha, 20 Jano Vermaak, 21 Louis Fouché, 22 JJ Engelbrecht.

U2 frontman Bono 'loves Machu Picchu'
U2 frontman Bono has confessed his love for one of Peru's most famous landmarks - Machu Picchu.
The Irish rockstar visited the Inca citadel over the weekend (February 25th) as part of his ongoing Peru holiday.
He told the Andina news agency: "I love Machu Picchu," before he embarked on an extensive tour of the magical site.
Bono is one of many people who have been mesmerised by the ancient region in Cusco, which celebrated the 100th anniversary of its rediscovery in mid-2011.
The singer - whose band have had a string of number one hits all around the world - was cheered as he strolled around Machu Picchu with his family and he told the Peruvian news provider that he was very excited to be in the South American country.
"Gracias, muchas gracias amigos (Thank you very much friends). I am here with my "familia" (family) to discover this beautiful country for the first time," he was quoted as saying.

Bad Sister
Description: A naive, wealthy small-town girl, bored with her routine life, falls for a dashing con artist who has come looking for fresh marks to swindle.

They willingly give him all sorts of goodies and he prepares his escape, but not before conning the girl into becoming his wife. After their wedding night in a sleazy hotel, he abandons her. Fortunately, by the story's end, she is able to reassemble her shattered life and find happiness.~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Hey Guys!
So, tomorrow morning, I shall be going on holiday to Canada! I wanted to make a blog post before I left, so I thought I'd do a "what to take in your hand-luggage" post, because it fits. Also, I know that holiday season is almost over, but hey, some of us go late!
So yeah, here's what I'm putting in my hand luggage!

Stop if you've heard this one before: The Canyon girls basketball team is No. 1 in the state again.
That's a position the Lady Eagles have gotten used to under veteran coach Joe Lombard, and where they also spent a good chunk of last season. After beating Pflugerville and North Crowley, a pair of top 10 5A teams, to win the Mansfield Rotary Invitational, it seemed only natural to assume the Lady Eagles would soar back to the top of the Texas High School Basketball Coaches Association poll.

It has just occurred to me that I have written my final words regarding the 2010 high school football season. I wrote my final piece of copy this afternoon which will run this weekend when the Globe-News Super Team is unveiled.
So ends another football season, which always seems to come and go before you know it. And since it seems as if we haven't gotten that deeply into the meaningful part of basketball season yet, the last week of the year seems like it's a lull in terms of seasonal transition.

There are 88 keys on a piano, but that's not why that number is a topic of conversation this week. Women's college basketball is enjoying a rare moment in the national sporting spotlight as the University of Connecticut has won 88 straight games, equaling the number of the UCLA men's dynasty led by John Wooden and featuring Bill Walton and Jamaal (formerly Keith) Wilkes.

Saturday night marks the official end of college football's regular season when New York's Downtown Athletic Club awards the Heisman Trophy to "The outstanding college football player in America", or something along those lines.
Four candidates have been invited to the ceremony, and all carry obvious strengths and liabilities. The frontrunner is Auburn's Cam Newton, who's had an awesome season statistically. But there's that little matter of the NCAA, cash and Newton's father which hangs over his candidacy like a feedyard aroma.

Hope you Rangers fans enjoyed Cliff Lee while you had him.
Cynical? No, just being realistic. The New York Yankees have reportedly upped the ante to sign Lee, the ace left-hander who is probably the missing piece in the Yankees rotation. Forget what could happen to the Rangers, the Yankees are going to do their damndest to keep up with their division foils the Boston Red Sox.

Hard to believe that we're down to the final two weeks of the high school football season and that only one Panhandle team, Canadian, still remains. But whether or not you're a supporter of the 13-0 Wildcats, who are playing in the Class 1A Division I state semifinal game against Mart in Abilene this Saturday, there are plenty of games across the state to pique the interest of hardcore prep fans.

It looks as if Springlake-Earth is going to avenge its lone loss of the season to Farwell, as the Wolverines led 28-0 at the end of the third quarter in a Class 1A DIvision II state quarterfinal game at Lubbock's Lowrey Field.
The only question which appears relevant for the Steers in the final quarter is whether they can avoid a shutout in what has otherwise been a stellar season.
By: Lee Passmore on December 3, 2010 - 7:32pm - Add new comment
Farwell lost a fumble on its first possession, which led to a Springlake-Earth touchdown as the Steers trailed 7-0 at the end of the first quarter of a Class 1A Division II state quarterfinal game at Lubbock's Lowrey Field.
Despite moving the ball fairly well, Farwell couldn't manage any points in the opening quarter. But there are still three quarters left to play.

Web hosting can look really difficult matter when first learning about it. Nevertheless, when supplied with the correct advice, the tough tips becomes better to process. This composition can assist you substantially helpful suggestions for comprehension web hosting.
Examine the hosting website to learn what sort of websites they are able to offer. Some free websites do not let you to really add your own special language scripts. In the event you cannot get the form of dynamic scripts you intend to use, you might need to pick a compensated host as an alternative.
The kind and variety of characteristics offered can vary greatly between hosts, that might differ considerably from one server to another. When evaluating web hosts, make certain that what individuals are providing matches what-you're searching for.
Select monthly payments as opposed to subscribing to get an internet host. You do not understand the length of time the web hosting company (or even your wants are going to be a year from now. When the host fall, your company grows past them or your account gets closed, unless the host determines otherwise.
You may optimize the choices available to you personally make off your web site with an efficient hosting company. You could be requested to cover as very little as $1 each month to hundreds or thousands to your own dedicated server, as well as in plenty of situations the most high-priced rates usually do not correspond to the greatest bundles. While a higher priced hosting company might supply you extra band width, you might not find yourself with any less down-time having the most high-priced host.
Take care when considering web hosting bundles claiming infinite services. For instance, in the event that you are offered unlimited disc space, the caveat could be that maybe not all file kinds are contained.
Seek out client reviews from independent website rather than an affiliate of the host is. These critiques gives you understand a much better notion of the way the supplier really performs.
Do Not join an internet hosting service simply simply because they are free. These hosts usually need you post ad on your website. In addition, you lack control on the adverts will soon be shown.
If you do not understand much about internet servers, search for hosting suppliers with superior customer care. As your expertise develops, you will wind up asking plenty of questions how specific characteristics can be utilized as it pertains to your own bundle. You'll have more from their tech support versus the consumer care help than more elaborate characteristics that lots of hosts offer.
Endeavor To convey with current clients of the host to determine the things they think on discussion groups. These discourses will allow you to feel more assured that you will be selecting the most appropriate firm. Current clients might be excellent sources of a host's solutions.
This technique is perfect that you judge a host's assistance and service. Although junk such as this can surely be falsified, honours are an excellent indication your webhost is valued. Hosts having quite a few these fan-voted awards voted for by clients are ones you must go with.
Having an optimistic standing is extremely precious to any web hosting company. Corporations that do not supply great service must be readily found out.
If it's very important to your website to get several e-mails, see what format your domain host offers. You're going to need one which does use POP 3.
A quick and reliable connection is essential to ensure a website online or over-to date.
Be sure you do not get required by frauds or miscellaneous fees. Many serves often advertise their costs without mentioning the additional fees up front. Find out just what a bundle contains and just how much you really get your first statement.
With fortune, the previous paragraphs have widened the horizons of your hosting knowledge in methods will allow you to choose the best option for your web site. Follow these suggestions through the entire procedure for uploading your website online.

Maybe Bill Murray Should Just Host 'The Late Show' Now
Although we understand that 'The Late Show' will be getting a bit of a makeover when long-time host David Letterman exits later this year, and while we're extremely excited that Stephen Colbert is taking over the post, we still have a teensy idea: maybe Bill Murray could host it? Or just appear on every single episode? Does Colbert need a sidekick? He has to, right?
You'll Never Guess Who Is Andy Samberg's Only Facebook Friend
If you're going to have only one Facebook friend, it might as well be Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg. While it's unclear how many stars have Facebook profiles lovingly crafted by the Zuck himself, Andy Samberg has one, and he shared the story of its creation on last night's 'The Tonight Show' with a gobsmacked Jimmy Fallon. We're jealous.

Jimmy Fallon's Tear-Soaked Robin Williams Tribute Will Make You Cry

Watch Conan O'Brien's Touching Live Tribute to Robin Williams

Instead of ignoring the news or saving it for tomorrow or not acknowledging it, host Conan O'Brien took it upon himself to share it with a shocked studio audience, sidekick Andy Richter, and guest Will Arnett. Still stunned and reeling from the news, the trio -- all of whom had worked with Williams in the past -- shared their thoughts on the actor and comedian.

Celebrate St David's Day in Cardiff
Date Posted: 06/02/14
Where better to celebrate the Welsh national day of St David than in the capital of Wales itself - Cardiff?
On March 1st, Cardiff will come alive with a whole host of Welsh-themed entertainment, including the National St David's Day Parade. The parade is an opportunity for people to enjoy a creative and imaginative celebration of Welsh heritage and culture.
This year the Parade will start outside Cardiff City Hall and at 12.30pm will travel down Kingsway to St John Street, into Working Street, down The Hayes to Mill Lane, then along St Mary Street and High Street, through the gate of Cardiff Castle and into the castle grounds.
Revellers will be treated to live music from traditional Welsh bands in the grounds of Cardiff Castle until 4pm. In the evening visitors will be encouraged to retreat to the local bars and taverns around the city, where more musical entertainment and Welsh dancing will take place.
If you want to make a short break of it and explore more of what Cardiff has to offer, such as visiting Cardiff Bay and shopping in the atmospheric Edwardian and Victorian arcades, then there's a great choice of Cardiff hotels to choose from.

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal laptop in every dimension
OK, it took me months of searching for a notebook. I started looking for a notebook around August and there were a couple of them that piqued my interest. That list included the Asus G74, Alienware M17x, HP Envy 17, and the Dell XPS 17. I wanted a gaming notebook, but more then that - I wanted a notebook that would be future proof for a couple of years well as my Gateway...

1.0 out of 5 stars MSI Customer Service is atrocious
This is more of a review concerning MSIs business practices rather then on the PC itself. Laptop was received quickly from Beach Audio. I went to install SWTOR and it failed on the first DVD. 5 minutes later I had a Blue Screen crash. The laptop has since crashed so many times I lost count. I emailed MSI and left numerous voice-mails and finally received a reply...

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal laptop in every dimension,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
OK, it took me months of searching for a notebook. I started looking for a notebook around August and there were a couple of them that piqued my interest. That list included the Asus G74, Alienware M17x, HP Envy 17, and the Dell XPS 17. I wanted a gaming notebook, but more then that - I wanted a notebook that would be future proof for a couple of years well as my Gateway FX was when I bought it. Knowing this, I know for sure that I made the right choice. I started looking at the MSI GT780DX after I heard these newer core i7 processors were coming out, I decided right away that the 2670QM was right for me. At that time when I purchased this notebook all of the above listed notebooks, except the Alienware had these newer processors. So why did I choose this notebook? GTX 570M at a price that no one else can beat. At the time of this writing, there is no other brand that even offers the GTX 570M as an option. Its 15% faster then the GTX 560M and not much slower then the GTX 580M, and with the overclock option on this MSI, it's not that hard to reach this 580M stock speeds.
So when it was finally time to choose I bought this over the G74SX, those were my two final choices and the MSI was more appealing to me. Better audio system, 5 USB vs 4 USB, Matte display vs glossy display, an unbelievable multicolored changing keyboard vs a regular white keyboard, and in my opinion better styling (debatable of course). Not to mention this MSI was only $50 more and what you get in content was worth a lot more then $50, I would argue the multicolored back-lit keyboard alone is worth that price. Also, this comes with a DIRT 3 voucher where you get the game for free. You just scan the code or take a picture of the voucher, and attach it to the online form, and a couple of days later AMD emails you the game key and you download the game (Have not received mine yet).
So OK, on to the notebook lets start with the speakers. The speakers truly are phenomenal, I have known about Dynaudio for quite some time, a lot of Volkswagen cars use this audio system and the speakers are very solid, just like they are in the cars. I listen to all types of music from classic, all the way to Rap/RNB/Country/Rock and have never felt disappointed with the audio, great job here. The keyboard is wonderful, I love the spacing of the keys, it took me only one day to be able to use this keyboard perfectly fine. It really feels like you are typing on a desktop keyboard, anyone should catch on quick. The back-lit keyboard is truly amazing, you can use many different color combinations, and have different types of settings on the back-light. You can have the keyboard breath, wave, dual color mode (the keyboard changes between two different colors), and gaming mode. Gaming mode is intelligent, it only lights the left hand side of the keyboard so the other keys don't get in your way especially when gaming at night. Another nice thing about the keyboard is they put the windows key on the right side, so you won't hit it while gaming!
I have run some benchmarks already, 3DMark06 and Crystal Disk Mark. Both have blown me away, I am getting a score of 17500 in 3DMark06 and for Crystal Disk Mark I am getting read and write times at 125! That is very fast for a normal mechanical HDD, I was expecting about 100 read and write but 125 was very unexpected. This notebook comes with a Western Digital Scorpio Black drive which is known to have great performance. I have not run any other benchmarks yet, and have not overclocked the notebook using turbo mode to run benchmarks, I will update the review and add this in. Before I go, I have to add one thing, this notebook like any other notebook on the planet is not perfect. There are two gripes that I have, the first thing I don't like is the touch button you have to press on top of the keyboard to open the DVD drive, it is not intuitive. I tried to open my DVD drive while I was restarting my computer, and had to wait until windows booted up all the way to open up the disk drive, very annoying. If there was a physical button, it would have been able to open right away. The second problem I have, is those touch buttons in general. Maybe its just me, but it doesn't seem responsive, you have to hit it exactly in the middle for it to work, and it's hard because these button are not lit period! So you have to actually look very closely to even see especially at night time. That's something I hope MSI considers on the next revision of this notebook, give those buttons back lighting so you can actually see them without having to put your head against the screen at night. It lights up when that key/feature is activated, but still that is not enough, make it another color when it's off so people can still know its disabled.
So overall, I have to give it 5 stars. The value, GPU, build quality, keyboard and the speakers are all truly phenomenal for any notebook under 2 grand. My gripes are minor and something I can live with, for every one thing I hate, there are 5 things I like, this is how a notebook should be made, great job MSI!

4.0 out of 5 stars Just Beautiful,
GWT (Down South) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
I previously owned a MSI GT735 laptop and was very satisfied with its quality and performance. However, it was aging and I'm one who tends to like the latest technology. After searching new models and reading reviews, I decided to by another MSI, the GT780DX. I did not order mine from Amazon but from an online retailer of gaming laptops. All, I can say is this laptop is just beautiful. It is built tough, uniquely designed, and performs better than my expectations.
Screen +
Coming from a glare type screen, the matte was a concern before ordering this laptop. I'm very pleased with the matte screen and really like it more than my glare type. The screen on the GT780 is much brighter than on my old GT735 so that makes a difference as well. If matte is a concern, don't fret because it is probably better than what you have.
Keyboard -
The keyboard is the only issue I have with this laptop. I had read reviews of keyboard problems with the GT780 series, but I was hoping MSI and Steelecase had worked out those bugs before I purchased. I had an issue with the spacebar not working when the bottom left/right were pressed. I fixed this by gently lifting up on the spacebar which seems to have reseated the key. Also, the down arrow key won't register if the bottom edge is not hard pressed. I've used many laptops and I've never seen a keyboard which required the key to be pressed dead-center. A couple of other keys also won't register if they are pressed on the left edge. I have an open RMA with MSI to fix/replace the keyboard. Not wanting to be without the laptop for up to two weeks, I'm waiting on a convenient time before sending it for repair. Too bad they won't send me the keyboard and I'll replace it myself :). Other than that, I've had no other issues with my keyboard. It has no flex and keys are easy to press with minimal pressure (except noted). The lighting, as you know, is an added benefit and is evenly lit across the board. The lighting is not a bothersome feature. In fact, I forget it's even there.
Touchpad +
No issues and it works very well but I have seen better. Pleased with its performance and I am very picky about touchpads. I've worked on family laptops which had touchpads that were horrible to use. The touchpad buttons are easy to press and they do make a click sound...they are not silent. The pad is hard plastic and not the rubbery, softer pad.
Build +
Very well built machine all around. Feels very solid. Screen hinges have just the right amount of tension. The power brick is huge. I thought my old brick was big, but this one is about an inch wider and longer. I don't have a ruler nearby but estimated it to be 3"x6.5"x1.25". One of the features I like about MSI gaming laptops is the rear power connector. This allows me to site anywhere without a power cord stretched across my lap. My old laptop's power adapter had a right angle, where this one is straight. I prefer the angled adapter because it places less tension on the cable. The DVD drive has no eject button. You have to press a button on the S-bar to eject. This is my first machine without a button but so far it has not been an issue for me. I sorta like the s-Bar eject feature over searching for an eject button on the drive.
Sound +
Couldn't believe my ears. There is a demo which comes with this laptop called Stone Giant. Run it to hear the full effects of this laptop's sound quality. The program is difficult to exit however, so I had to watch the entire show. Run it full resolution. Don't expect booming base because the laptops just don't have the speakers capable of such but the clarity is astounding.
Very pleased with this laptop thus far.
Games played with no issues on max settings, (WOW, Ultra settings, obtain 60fps in SW), (Crysis 2, max Settings), (Battlefield 3, max settings). Laptop fans will kick in (they are quiet) and blow some warmer air when playing these games on max settings. The laptop has a touch button to increase fan speed to assist removing the hot air (noticeable noise of course).
Installed a Samsung 830 series,128GB SSD, . Now getting bootup to Windows login in about 12-15 seconds. Windows login to desktop is about a second.

David H. Clayson (Omaha, NE United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
This is more of a review concerning MSIs business practices rather then on the PC itself. Laptop was received quickly from Beach Audio. I went to install SWTOR and it failed on the first DVD. 5 minutes later I had a Blue Screen crash. The laptop has since crashed so many times I lost count. I emailed MSI and left numerous voice-mails and finally received a reply. Seems this laptop has a bad MB and get this! MSI wants me to pay to ship it to them to fix their defective laptop! If I return it to the Amazon etailor the only way they will pay for shipping is if I order another laptop and charge my credit card again and wait 2 weeks for a credit back to the card, but if I just want to return it I have to pay shipping!!! I really wanted to love this laptop it has many nice features, but unfortunately it has given me nothing but problems. I tried many different OSs, HDs and memory configurations, but to no avail. What a waste of my time! MSI needs to learn how to service customers immediately and with proper procedures.
attached are some other comments about MSI...
MSI support is terrible...I got a MSI GT780r after 2 weeks got an RMA# send it back, the laptop arrived yesterday at MSI headquarters... I am on hold right now waiting for over 30 minutes and I have to keep pressing star on the phone, if I do not the phone call is terminated, when I got a hold of someone is a voice mail. I find the phone choices on the menu very misleading also. I hope they fix the laptop really good it cost me with insurance to send it back, $42.00.

5.0 out of 5 stars MSi: Great laptop, great price.,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
I bought this laptop not knowing what to expect as i had originally intended to purchase a machine from alienware. After searching for cheaper alternatives I came across the MSi GT780DX. Not only was it cheaper than its dell made equivalent (by over $200), but it's specifications were far better. 12 GB or ram compared to 4 GB!!!! NO contest.... (and that's not the only specification that is better). I've had no troubles with the laptop after almost 2 months and am very satisfied with my purchase. I've thrown at least 20 graphically demanding games at this machine and it has yet to slow down. Well done MSi.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keep Cool Under Load 40c,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
The GT780DX stays very Cool under Load, consistently pushing the graphics the GPU temperature never rises beyond 40c. A welcomed changed from previous gaming PC configurations I have owned. You will be able to tell the difference after the first 45 minutes of game play. No noise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bang for your buck.,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
Review title says it all.
This computer is one of the best I've found on the internet for the price it's listed at.
Only thing I suggest is -
VIEW ALL NEW (MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch) LAPTOPS TO FIND A SELLER FOR < $1500 SO YOU CAN GET A CHEAPER 3 YEAR WARRANTY.
You'll spend a couple dollars extra for shipping but since it's listed as a $1200 - $1500 computer you save alot more on a cheaper warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars so far sssooOOOO GOOOOD!!,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
I got this laptop on Fri Jan 6 and am happy with it so far. I don't like to leave reviews too quickly, so I will just say that there have been only minor problems thus far. I will update this review after I've really put the machine through it's paces, so be sure and come back in a week or two.
I just want to say, that if you are looking for a gaming laptop, this one has not disappointed so far.
1/8/2013 STILL LOVING THIS LAPTOP!! it has not missed a beat and I game on it daily. I run many other programs while gaming and it never lets me down. it doesn't get hot at all!! it's been worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing laptop,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
This laptop will play anything you can throw at it skyrim, swtor, ect. 1080p Rez is very clear and the matte Finnish on the screen is also awesome. I never drop down below 30 fps in any game on ultra setting. This is the best laptop for the price. Believe that because I've been looking for a long time and this by far beats out the compitition by far.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty darn good, but needs some polishing.,
Whitestar73 (Collingswood, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
I've had this laptop since early December 2011.
Some clarification:
(Other laptops I own for comparison: Dell Vostro 1500, Sony VAIO, ACER Aspire One)
(I went with a custom build company, so a couple things are different from the stock model you see here)
* The sturdiness is average. They use a decent plastic for frame construction, but I can get "flex" when pressing on some areas, and especially the screen casing (the Vostro was rock solid like a tank). Yes this laptop is heavy enough already... so why not make the case like an armor shell.
* The locations of the data ports on this case is a serious plus. Compared with most other gaming laptops, MSI had the sense to place power, video out, LAN, esata in the REAR of the laptop. This is VERY nice. Anyone who's ever had to deal with their ethernet, video, power cables coming out of the SIDE of their laptops knows what I mean.
* I -thought- the case had twin exhausts out the rear, but I was mistaken. There is only 1 exhaust located on the left side, and it is a side-firing exhaust port... If anything, it should be a rear-firing to help get fan noise and heat away.
* The chipset is REALTECH..... YUCK!!!! MSI should contract with Creative Labs and get a REAL onboard sound card.
* They got the help from Creative labs to "enhance" the crappy realtech chipset, so does it work? Yes, but not without issues. You see, Creative is using software and merely messing with the amplitude of what's already there from realtech. It works, but don't expect anything super, and if you try to use a media player with its own graphic EQ on top of that, then expect to hear distortion and crackling. I even got distortion while playing StarTrek Online.
* The Dynaudio speakers sound ok for laptop speakers. We're not talking about 10" woofers here people. There's apparently a small "subwoofer" underneath... SUBWOOFER? HAHA Let's not call it that ok. But realistically, you wouldn't want a subwoofer in the laptop case, you'd shake all kinds of things loose, and I can't imagine that being any good for the hard drive heads either.
* For best results in hearing the audio enhancements, use a good pair of headphones that have at least a 40mm driver coil for good bass response. And it'll help block out the fan noise too.
* 64 bit QUAD Hyperthread core...It's deep-fried gass-guzzlin badassery on a stick. You'll hear your 9 cell battery scream to death HAHA!
* Nominal 2.2ghz running speed, and auto clocks-up to 3.1ghz max speed.
* Virtualization is supported for those who wish to use it for development and testing.
It comes loaded with 12 gigs right off which is nice, but either downgrade to 8 gigs or upgrade to 16 if you wish to fully benefit from DUAL CHANNEL mode. With 3 ram chips in there, you don't be running at full dual channel. Don't take my word for it, read up on the issues with using 3 ram chips in a dual channel setup and you'll understand.
7200rpm SATA2 is meant for performance, and it does perform well... as well as drain the battery more, so be aware of that.
A Geforce 570M with 1.5 gigs dedicated video ram... what's not to love =)
I do not have the default MATTE screen., so I cannot comment on it. I upgraded to a glossy 90% NTSC color gamut screen, and I will say... it's pretty nice.
* No indicator lights for CAPS/NUM/SCROLL lock... REALLY?!!! MSI has released a "software" app to help with this, but it's important in gaming to know when those keys are active and not, especially when you have a full numeric keypad. MSI needs to get those indicators back, and maybe have an option for those who want to turn them off, but I'd like to see mine.
* Multi zone, multi color backlighting.... this is more deep-fried badassery! I love being able to change not only the color, but the intensity as well. You get 3 zones - left, right, center. You also have the option to turn it on/off via the touchboard.
* The keyboard layout is a bit tight, and given that there is a full keypad on the right, they need to spread this out a little. The ENTER key is right in the middle of a sea of keys. There is enough case width to spare to widen the keys out a bit, so they should do it.
* The responsiveness of the keyboard is average. Some people have claimed it's non-responsive, but I would describe the keys as "stiff". I can only imagine it was designed this way due to the backlighting being a bit sensitive, and also an apparent tendency for some gamers to hammer the keyboard. Personally, I think they do need to lighten up the touch. It really is a bit too stiff.
At the base of the screen is a touch control bar. Instead of using manual switches for things, you have a touch-sensitive bar. Neat little invention. Hope it doesn't break @_@
NO DEFAULT BLUERAY DRIVE: For as much money as you're spending, you'd think you could at least get a blueray reader by default, but no. I did an upgrade here and got the blueray drive. The drive door does not have a manual eject button. Now I can understand the reason that you may wish to avoid the casual bump, but how often does that happen? The actual location for the eject is on the touchboard. At least there's the emergency eject port.
FAN: One cardinal sin any laptop manufacturer can make is fan noise.
* This fan is LOUD. No two ways about it, but what really irritates me the most is the behavior.
* The fan's throttle behavior is almost chaotic. In a quiet room, you'll hear the fan go near full throttle, then back off slightly, then turn off, 30 seconds to a minute or so later, and same thing again (you won't notice it as much in a room with a lot of background noise, but in a quiet room, that will drive you crazy!). The only time the fan behavior will become more consistent is when the CPU is placed under load from something like a game. The fan behavior is not something I can say is due to MSI directly since the behavior is IDENTICAL to my Acer, so whatever fan controller they're using needs to be replaced with something better. My Dell has a very smooth and quiet fan, and under load will get noticeable, but the best part is the behavior is smooth and consistent. MSI needs to improve the fan both in the design for a lower decibel level and more importantly, the behavior of the fan.
* The touchboard has an override to put the fan at TOP speed. I wouldn't do this unless you REALLY had to...
You get a 9 cell battery, and that's as big as they come. Doing web browsing and light work, you can expect somewhere around 2-3 hours at best. Don't game on the go unless you bring a portable fusion reactor.
Great performance and options, but with some annoyances that hopefully can be fixed. For the price, I was expecting better - even at $1500 for the base model, that's pushing it. Would I buy another one? Fix the fan issues first, then yes... and by then, the 3rd gen lower power i7's will be out =)
I think this is the best of the 3 "alternative gaming systems" to Alienware. Alienware is overpriced and underspec'd. Between ASUS, MSI, and CLEVO, MSI has the best configuration that gamers crave with style and options that will impress.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Performance & Gaming Laptop for Best Price. A True Desktop Replacement!,
This review is from: MSI G Series GT780DX-406US 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
I use this for graphics work and also for recreational gaming.
It is very sleek and although it is a beast of a laptop and thicker than most laptops, the fact remains that it is still actually portable and not particularly heavy.
On the other hand, if you're looking for a basic laptop that is lightweight, this might not be for you.
This laptop has as much power as an Alienware laptop but is thinner, lighter, much more aesthetically appealing, and a fraction of the price.
It comes with an NVIDIA GT570M graphics card, which if you are not familiar is one of the best graphics cards on the market. Just recently the released the 6-series of graphics cards, but there is no need to get one, because the truth is that the 6-series are the SAME graphics cards, just overclocked. See the chart below:
670M = 570M Overclocked
675M = 580M Overclocked
680M = The only new graphics chip. But to get one you'll have to buy a $3,000+ laptop.
To overclock a 570M to have the same performance as a 670M, all you have to do is download the free application from MSI called "MSI Afterburner" and change the settings.
See the settings below:
Core Clock (MHz)
Shader Clock (MHz)
Memory Clock (MHz)
In other words, all you have to do in the MSI afterburner to have the exact same performance of the 670M, is to move the CORE CLOCK slider from 575 to 598. This is 100% safe! The program lets you overclock up to 750, but really you don't need it to be that fast and it has only been officially tested up to 598 (hence the existence of the "670M").
At a maximum of 3.1 GHz, this processor is fast enough to do whatever you want. I am an extreme multitasker and never once have I gotten that "white screen" that Windows does when it's working and won't let you do anything for a few seconds.
The keyboard can be quirky. I noticed that sometimes it misses keys (I type extremely fast). However, it is rare and other than that it is a really nice backlit keyboard that also has the option to change it multiple colors. It also has a "gaming mode" where you can choose to only have it light up the left side, but I never use that mode. I just like the whole keyboard lit up all the time.
Very crisp audio, with true surround sound and even a subwoofer underneath. Best sound I have ever had n a laptop.
Cooler Boost Technology:
There is a touch-button at the top of the keyboard that allows you to turn the fan on full-speed. This is great if you are in a warm location f want to get just a little more "oomph" performance out of your laptop during extreme intensity work or gaming.
Plays all games on Ultra mode, with maximum settings. This includes Skyrim, and with zero lag. It is very smooth, the best of any laptop I have owned.
The screen is the best I have ever had in a laptop. It is a 1080p Full HD anti-glare LED screen, that is super-crisp.
The biggest and really only issue about this laptop is the touchpad. It is very quirky. There are no official drivers for the touchpad. Use an external mouse. They should have used a Synaptics touchpad. However, I guess most people with this desktop replacement laptop would be using an external mouse anyway. Personally I use a Kensington Trackball.
Bluetooth: has the latest bluetooth and works perfect.
WIFI: fast wifi.
Gigabit ethernet

12th Annual WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon Raises More Than $3.3 Million In 36-Hour Broadcast
The Boston Red Sox, WEEI Sports Radio 93.7 FM, NESN (New England Sports Network) and the Jimmy Fund are proud to announce that the 12th annual WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon raised more than $3.3 million for adult and pediatric cancer care and research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The event has raised more than $34 million since its inception in 2002.
Broadcasting live from Fenway Park on Tuesday, Aug. 27 and Wednesday, Aug. 28, from 6 a.m. to midnight, this year's WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon featured moving, emotional interviews with Dana-Farber patients about their experience with cancer, and insight from the doctors and nurses who have treated them. The event also included commentary from several Red Sox players, including David Ortiz, Dustin Pedroia, Daniel Nava, and 2013 Jimmy Fund co-captains Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Will Middlebrooks. Red Sox President and CEO Larry Lucchino, who is a former Dana-Farber patient, spoke about his treatment and the important relationship between the Red Sox and Jimmy Fund, which is celebrating its historic 60 year partnership - one of the most remarkable partnerships between a team and a charity in the history of professional sports.
Throughout the event, celebrities, including actor and Massachusetts native Michael Chiklis, clothing designer Joseph Abboud, Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig, former Red Sox Manager Terry Francona, former Red Sox pitcher Pedro Martinez, Boston Bruins Owner Jeremy Jacobs and Bruins players Shawn Thornton and Tuukka Rask phoned in or appeared to lend their support on air.
"The outstanding generosity of our listeners across New England year after year not only supports a great cause but betters the lives of those who need it most," said Jeff Brown, VP/Market Manager at Entercom Boston. "These past two days have been the most emotionally rewarding for the entire WEEI and Entercom Boston family this year. We remain both humbled and thrilled to have played a role in helping the selfless team at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in their fight against cancer."

In the week leading up to Valentine's Day, Jana ran a survey of consumers in nine markets to learn more about their feelings on online dating. To ascertain which services and platforms are most popular, we provided respondents in each market with several options according to availability. For example, respondents in India were given 13 global and local platforms from which to choose (as well as 'none of the above' and 'other: please specify' options).
Key insights:
- Facebook is the main way that our respondents chose to seek out a romantic partner.
- Twitter and even MySpace are popular choices for online dating.
- Specialized online dating services are not widely popular among respondents, and are perceived as untrustworthy.
Our results offered some really surprising insight into how emerging market consumers are using social media – especially Facebook. Take a look at our infographic below, and let us now your thoughts on Twitter: @Jana

The trial of four men charged in connection with Kenya's Westgate Mall massacre, an attack claimed by Somalia's al-Qaeda-linked Shebab group, has started.
Adan Mohamed Abidkadir Adan, Mohamed Ahmed Abdi, Liban Abdullah Omar and Hussein Hassan Mustafah all pleaded not guilty to charges of "supporting a terrorist group" on Wednesday.
The men have been accused of supporting the gunmen who carried out the September attack that killed at least 67 people.
In court, witness Stephen Juma described how he had been directing traffic outside the mall when a car pulled up to the building and three men leapt out.
"I began to hear gunshots, I made a radio call for help while running to the main entrance," Juma said. "I took shelter in a residential compound until when I saw policemen come," adding that he had not seen the faces of the three men.
A warning to Kenya
Security forces initially reported that a dozen gunmen carried out the attack, but now it is thought that there were only four gunmen.
Two of the shooters are named in court documents as Mohammed Abdinur Said and Hassan Abdi Dhuhulow, a 23-year-old Somali who spent time in Norway.
It is believed that all attackers were killed in the siege. Interpol and the FBI have assisted Kenya in trying to identify four bodies believed to be those of the attackers. But a New York police report said a lack of evidence could mean the attackers escaped.
Al-Shebab said the gunmen came from a special suicide commando brigade and that the attack was a warning to Kenya to pull its troops out of southern Somalia, where they are fighting the group as part of an African Union force.
Western officials have said that as many as 94 people could have died in total in the mall attack, as bodies were buried under tonnes of rubble after part of the mall's roof collapsed at the end of the raid following an intense fire that burned for weeks.

With holiday lights shining on the grounds of Glenhyrst offering a feeling of joy and peace, inside the gallery is a reminder of how important those feelings are, says Norm Moore, project co-ordinator of the Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant.
The gallery's latest exhibit, War and Peace, offers more than 50 pieces of art that reflect on the relationship and conflict between war and peace.
Inspired by the bicentennial of the War of 1812, the exhibit examines issues of war in conflicts ranging from the War of 1812 to the modern day, as well as discord within our own boarders, mirrored by images of peace found within and between and the wars.
"Seeing the lights is a joyous time of peace and goodwill," Moore said. "Enjoy the lights, come in for some hot chocolate and learn about how important that feeling of joy and peace is."
The exhibit runs until Jan. 3 and is open during the current Joysey light show running on the gallery grounds, offering a some culture amidst the holiday sparkle.
War and Peace is Glenhyrst's biennial juried exhibition, which invites artists to submit their interpretation of the year's theme. Jurors included Six Nations artist Naomi Johnson, County of Brant artist Fleur-Ange Lamothe and Brant Museum and Archives curator Chelsea Carss.
The pieces come in a variety of mediums, including painting, photography, mixed media, woodcarvings, sculptures, scratchboard, stone carving and fabric art.
Among the pieces are images of poppies in an empty field, a blood smudged dress, a peace sign made of keys, photographs of Toronto's G20 summit and a child playing with a toy gun at peacetime.
"(War and peace) is what we do, it's what we are," Moore said.
Taking first prize was Julia Vandepolder's The Green Room, made from charcoal, graphite, oil and chalk pastels on wood panel. The drawing depicts books strewn across a ransacked room.
In second place is Toward the River, an ink on washi piece by E.M. Carr. Tied for third are Alejandro Arauz's If We Were to Cross woodcut and J.P. Gural's print Stung Meanchy Dump, Phnom Penh.
"Throughout the 20th century, Canada has contributed to the contemporary artistic discourse dealing with war and peace," said Glenhyrst curator Marcia Lea. "Now, in the 21st century, Canadian art is continuing this exploration and we are proud to present this exhibition."

Title Contenders?
Angikaar C | 4:15pm gmt 13 Feb 2011
A lot of people have penciled India in as their favorites to win the greatest prize in world ODI cricket, the World Cup. Not surprising, as India is looking like the team to beat, with an inspirational leader and a top class batting lineup. But it would be better to exercise caution, as the scars of 2007 are still visible to one and all.
Here's a quick-look, player-by-player breakdown of the warriors who will seek to bring the Cup back to India after 28 years.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Captain and Wicket-Keeper)
Inspirational, considered one of the best captains in cricket today and among the best in history. Will look to replicate the same success which brought him the 2007 T20 crowd. His customary calmness should bring stability in an Indian team full of stars. His batting, though a step downwards from the flamboyancy of old, still packs a mean punch. One of the best finishers of the game. Under his captaincy, probably this is India's best chance after 1983 to win the World Cup.
Virender Sehwag (vice captain)
Probably the most destructive batsman of his age. Is enjoying a rich vein of form, and despite not being part of the ODI squad against South Africa owing to injury, he is still feared as a priceless wicket. Sehwag can change any game on its head, and if he gets going, India wins 90 percent of the time. His handy off-spin, which at times has proved more effective than Harbhajhan, should also be useful in the subcontinental wickets.
Ravichandran Ashwin
A deceptively under-rated offspinner, Ashwin has proven to be extremely useful. Along with Piyush Chawla, he will provide the back-up spinning option to Harbajhan Singh. Whether he or Piyush Chawla will be preferred remains to be seen, but he is a personal favourite of MS Dhoni. An extremely effective bowler in the IPL for the Chennai Super Kings, his real test will come at the World Cup.
Piyush Chawla
Along with Ashwin, Piyush Chawla provides a leg-spinning option for India. He might be the one picked ahead of Ashwin, if Dhoni decides to go for more variety in his attack. If selected, he is a handy batsman down the order.
Gautam Gambhir
A promising young player in 2007, Gambhir is today acknowledged as one of the seniormost members of the Indian team. After making public his disappointment at not being picked in 2007, Gambhir will look to continue his extremely fruitful partnership with Sehwag at the top of the order. Whether he opens or comes in at No 3, he is one of the top cogs in the batting order, for his iron will and determination to excel.
Harbhajan Singh
The lynchpin of the Indian bowling attack, along with Zaheer Khan. Will have to step up and provide the wickets in the slow and low pitches of the subcontinent. The Indian bowling department is being looked upon as a weak link as compared to the batting; it is up to the ?Turbanator? to remove such doubts. Has recently shown fine form with the bat as well.
Zaheer Khan
Carries the burden of the entire Indian pace attack and carries it well. One of the best bowlers in world cricket today, both with the new and old ball. Also has to act as a mentor for the other pace bowlers in the team and ensure they perform well in tandem. However, has to guard against injuries as India will not want their ace fast bowler out for any part of the tournament.
Virat Kohli
Has unleashed onto the international scene with a vengeance and gatecrashed into the India WC squad. A product of the brash new India, Virat Kohli is a complete cricketer who has both the shots and the talent at his disposal. However, questions have been raised about his temperament. Has the ability to play both the big shots and also knuckle down pressure.
Ashish Nehra
Ashish Nehra will not mind meeting England one bit when the two teams do battle on February 27th. Last time he played against England in the WC, he took 6 wickets for 23 runs in a scorching spell in Durban where he clocked 93 miles per hour. India will be hoping he replicates that performance. He has the ability to swing the ball both ways and should be underestimated at the opponent?s own peril. Again, injury-prone.
Munaf Patel
A canny customer, Munaf Patel might have lost his pace of old but he has the ability to bowl line and length, consistently and stifle the batsman. His fielding skills are poor, so he will be try to make up it for by supporting Zaheer,Nehra or Sreesanth if he plays along them. Dhoni will look to use him to lull opposing batsmen into a false sense of security.
Yusuf Pathan
Yusuf Pathan has, in a very short span of time, become India?s most destructive weapon at the WC. He annihilates bowling attacks when he gets going. As he himself admits, he knows the shots he can play and is willing to bide his time till he gets deliveries in his zone. Then he goes berserk. A Yusuf Pathan and Sehwag, both in full flow at the crease would be the worst nightmare of every opposing captain. Bowls canny off spin and has the lack of breaking partnerships. Comes into the WC with huge expectations riding on him after his heroics in South Africa.
Suresh Raina
Along with Gautam Gambir and Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina is the third southpaw in the Indian cricket team. Stylish, elegant and very destructive, Raina can build an innings and yet, score very quickly when he is needed. Not in the best form of late, but if he can come good, would supremely complement a Sehwag or Pathan.
S Sreesanth
Sreesanth was not part of the original squad but was picked after Praveen Kumar was ruled out of injury. When he gets going, he makes the ball talk, at the peak of his prowess; he is among the finest bowlers of word cricket. Ferocious, snarling and forever sniping at the batsman, he gets on the nerves of the opposing team and tries to channel his energy into his bowling. However when things go wrong for him, he is apt to get frustrated and spray it around a bit, something he must guard against.
Sachin Tendulkar
At 38, Sachin Tendulkar has nothing else left to achieve but this: a World Cup victory. He came close in 2003 but he will want to make amends now. This will probably be his last WC and going by his form these days, might be his best till date, overshadowing 2003. Will want to make amends for 2007. Expect him to put in his all to achieve ?The Final Frontier?.
Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj Singh, despite his poor form, is still next to Sachin Tendulkar, if it comes to match-winning ability. He tends to come good in pressure situations, so there is every probability he will want to remind the world about his talents in these WC. Explosive, aggressive, and like a lot of batsmen in this Indian squad, has the ability to hit sixes at will (remember the 6 sixes against England in the 2007 T20?). His left-arm spin has also come in handy against batsmen nowadays.

Crazy (2000 II)
Description: Following her documentary on Dutch war memory, 2 Minuten Stilte A.U.B (1999), noted filmmaker Heddy Honigmann directs this look at Dutch U.N. peace troops. The filmmaker interviews a variety of veterans from the Korean War to NATO's air campaign over Kosovo. As they each recount the horrors and terrible responsibilities they endured, they also remember a specific song that somehow kept them sane, from Puccini's Nessun Dorma to Guns N' Roses version of Knockin' on Heaven's Door. This film was screened at the 2000 Rotterdam Film Festival.~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide

Agreement a "critical step forward" toward Nanocenter on SUNYIT campus
By By
- State and college officials said a new project development agreement will pave the way for a Nanocenter on the SUNYIT campus.
The new agreement is being dubbed as a "critical step forward" in bringing a Nano Technology Center and hundreds of high-paying jobs to the Mohawk Valley.
The agreement signed Thursday is between SUNYIT and the University of Albany. The agreement means a nanotech center for research will go on the University of Albany campus with a new center for research also going on the SUNYIT campus.
Officials responsible for the agreement said the deal lays the ground work for a new Nanocenter facility, with high paying jobs, and the training necessary to fill those jobs.
"Today we stand here, ready to put the finishing touches on this site for it's future use as one of the major employers in Upstate New York," said Assemblywoman RoAnn Destito, (D) 116th district.
The agreement means $225 million will be spent between the two campuses - money that comes from not only the State of New York, but IBM and Intel, as well.
The new research center for students, will be added on the SUNYIT campus. Work on infrastructure improvements to the Edic Road property is expected to start in the coming months - land that has always been the target for a Nanocenter, and the jobs that would come along with the industry.
However, officials said two things held up a previous tenant - the land wasn't shovel ready, and SUNYIT did not have a high-level of Nanotech research.
"I can promise you, the arrival of nanotech jobs, companies and investment to the Utica-Rome area is not a question of if, but when and a very soon when," said Dr. Alain Kaloyeros, Senior Vice President & CEO of the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering at the University of Albany.

Central Europe sees new security threat
28 Apr 2014 Michaela Terenzani - Stanková Politics & Society
NATO and its member states, including Slovakia, need to change their strategic thinking and military planning in the wake of the Ukraine crisis, says analyst Róbert Ondrejcsák, director of the non-governmental think tank Centre for European and North Atlantic Affairs (CENAA), who served as state secretary of the Defence Ministry during the Iveta Radičová government (2010-12).
TSS: What are the possible scenarios for further development in Ukraine? Is it likely that some regions will break away from Ukraine as Crimea did and that the tension will move further west, closer to Slovakia's border?
TSS: Is there a real threat that Russia would attempt to exercise its interests in the Baltic states in the way that it did in Ukraine? How should the EU and Slovakia react if that were to happen?
On the part of the EU and mainly NATO, it is now key to take concrete steps to demonstrate they are ready to protect their interests, including a more robust dissemination of military infrastructure on the territory of the central-European member states and the Baltic area.
TSS: Edward Lucas from The Economist wrote about how this conflict could grow into a third world war. Do you believe this conflict has the potential to gain global dimensions?
TSS: What does the escalation of the conflict currently mean for Slovakia in terms of energy security?
TSS: What other potential security risks does Slovakia face today in relation to the conflict in Ukraine?
TSS: Based on the agreement on the immediate strengthening of technical and personnel presence in eastern Europe, is it possible that the presence of NATO armed forces in Slovakia will be increased? What will that mean for Slovakia?

If you haven't heard the story about Catherine the Great, then clearly you never passed notes in history class. The rumor is that the lusty czarina was crushed to death while trying to make love to a stallion. Of course, it's completely false: Catherine died from a stroke in her bed at the age of 67. The fact that the horse legend has survived for over 200 years is testament to the wily persistence of rumor.
During her lifetime, Catherine made many enemies throughout Europe. After her death, the horse myth probably emerged from the French upper class as a way to mar her legend. "She was a woman in power with a promiscuous sex life," says Michael Farquhar, author of A Treasury of Royal Scandals. "Her contemporaries were never comfortable with that."
From France, the myth may have traveled into the American press, which was famous for printing scandals at the time. "The press of our Founding Fathers makes the National Enquirer look tame," says Farquhar.

SURVEY: How eco-friendly is your family?
Find a Conversation
SURVEY: How eco-friendly is your family?
|Wed, 03-28-2012 - 11:06am
We want to know how busy moms find time to be environmentally friendly. What bad habit would you love to change? Are your kids better environmentalists than you? Take our survey to tell us how eco-friendly your family is!
|Sun, 04-01-2012 - 7:04am
Me too. A lot of the questions were not worded well. It made me seem not as eco friendly. However we recycle and use cloth diapers, plus use energy smart bulbs and other things. Plus I only have one child who is not even 4 months old. How do I teach her about being eco friendly now?
|Thu, 03-29-2012 - 11:51am
I agree. I didn't like how some of the answer options were worded either. I'll be sure to pass this on.
|Thu, 03-29-2012 - 11:41am
I'm kind of perturbed at the wording and narrowmindedness of the survey. This is one of those survey's that's clearly designed to elicite a specific statistic. In this case it's either that older generations don't care about the earth as much as younger generations, or that being eco-friendly is costly and time consuming.
