PROPAGANDA is a large collection of GNU General Public License GPL licensed ref http olympus.het.brown.edu cgi bin dwww?type file&location usr share doc propaganda debian copyright PROPAGANDA license file from its Debian package retrieved 2007 12 30 ref seamless Desktop environment desktop backgrounds included in various Linux distribution s, and available via free download over the web. While no longer being produced or even officially hosted online, the collection consisted of approximately 15 volumes of largely abstract and surreal art, numbering over 1,000 images in total. Created in GIMP by Bowie J. Poag, the images were meant to attract users to the platform by virtue of the art having been 100 Linux generated. The style of the images produced by Poag were unusual in terms of their geometric qualities. Appearing to repeat seamlessly along all four edges, PROPAGANDA images became attractive for use in 3D modeling , and particularly for use as desktop wallpaper , in that limitations in graphics hardware at the time often prevented users from using full screen 24 bit images. Using smaller, tileable images for desktop backgrounds helped keep memory utilization to a minimum, while still allowing early Linux desktops to be visually appealing. After ten months, Poag turned control of the project over to Naru Sundar who was then a student at the California Institute of Technology . Although Sundar would subsequently release two additional volumes, Poag terminated the project in April 2000 citing a lack of activity by Sundar, and a falling out with Chris DiBona, a manager of community projects at VA Linux Systems , who provided hosting space for his project. As a side source of amusement, PROPAGANDA s website featured a satirical storyline that John F. Kennedy had faked his own assassination in 1963, and had placed himself into cryogenic suspension until the time was right to lead the charge against Microsoft, and help the Linux movement gain footing.

Refimprove date December 2006 Expand list date February 2011 This is a listing of Australian Football League players with international and multicultural backgrounds. As the families of all non indigenous Australians are originally from elsewhere, this list goes back a maximum of one generation. Countries are listed in alphabetical order. The following criteria are used for this list player must have played at least one senior match player must have been born in a country outside Australia OR have at least one of their parents born outside Australia. Similar criteria were used for the inaugural Multicultural Cup which was held by Aussie Rules International , a competition in which players who had a parent or grandparent born overseas were allowed to play for that country. This is similar to the eligibility rules of many Australian Football International Cup World Cup tournaments. Additionally, the Australian Football International Cup has more strict criteria, according to which a player must have spent the majority of their junior life in another country. flagicon Albania Albania Adem Yze ref http aussierules.australianrules.com.au 2002stories yze.html Yze set to dazzle ref flagicon Austria Austria Alex Jesaulenko Born in Salzburg to a Ukrainian father, Russian mother ref name Jezza http www.afl.com.au news newsarticle tabid 208 newsid 59335 default.aspx Out of Austria ref flagicon Barbados Barbados Joshua Gibson footballer Joshua Gibson citation needed date July 2011 flagicon Brazil Brazil Harry O Brien Congolese father, Brazilian mother ref name HarryO http www.heraldsun.com.au sport afl harry obrien is no average joe story e6frf9jf 1225928570213 Harry O Brien is no average Joe ref flagicon Burma Burma Andrew Embley ref http www.afl.com.au tabid 208 default.aspx?newsid 26502 Embley s journey ref Trent Dennis Lane ref http www.smh.com.au afl afl news dennislanes tale is one for the true believers 20091130 k18e.html Dennis Lane s tale is one for the true believers ... more details

The Very Clever Pipe Game is a card game produced by Cheapass Games . It can be played by 2 4 people, or more in teams. Like other pipe game s, the objective can be to create a closed circuit in pipes of your color by playing cards from your hand. When you accomplish this, you pick up the Playing card cards . Whoever has the most cards at the end wins. However, what makes this game unique and thus, according to the maker, Very Clever is that you can also choose to close off fields of light or dark backgrounds. If you have four players, for instance, each has a different goal light pipes, dark pipes, light backgrounds, or dark backgrounds. With so many competing goals, the game becomes quite complicated. There are two basic strategies to this game. Some players prefer to make small circuits of only two or three cards, and others attempt to build up their circuit to pick up many cards at a time. Either strategy can win, although the former is more safe and the latter more of a gamble. Often, the strategy players choose depends on the cards they hold in their hands. In addition, an important part of the strategy in this game is blocking opponents before they can gather cards.
