The Rhino Open Projects tools are available to users in order to allow their use and improvement for academic and commercial purposes. Currently there are 4 projects available:
- AdvMesh which allows mesh operations such as curvature computation, mesh-mesh distance visualization, principal axes of inertia representation, mesh-mesh registration, symmetry plane estimation, quadratic fitting of a set of points calculation, noise addition, vertices or faces addition or removal, connected vertices selection and self-intersection identification,
- AdvSurf to estimate the lines of curvature of a surface,
- LensDesign developed for progressive addition lens design, analysis and data exchange for manufacturing process.
- DogFemur developed for morphological and clinical parameters computation in dog femur based on mesh processing.
Rhino Open Projects requires no installation:
- simply download, unzip the file RhinoOpenSourceCode.zip and put it in the folder C:\
- from the folder C:\RhinoOpenSourceCode drag and drop the toolbars in Rhino.
More information about the use of tools is available at the web site Rhino Open Projects. If you use these tools in your research project please cite the authors and the relevant papers. These projects have been tested, but it is the second release and it might still contain bugs.
I am getting an error when trying the Curvature Mesh function:
Message: file does not exist: C:\RhinoOpenSourceCode\Lib\Meta.Numerics.dll
I the file is definitely there but for some reason Rhino cant see it.
Do you have any idea how to resolve this?
Can be used in Rhino 4.0?

Fisheries and Aquaculture Minister Derrick Dalley. — Telegram file photo
The provincial government is providing a $125,000 term loan to New Brunswick-based Silk Stevens Ltd. to assist the company in establishing operations in Grand Falls-Windsor.
Since its inception in 2006, Silk Stevens has been working within Atlantic Canada's aquaculture industry. The company will use the loan to acquire equipment such as an underwater camera, laboratory supplies, technology and other investments in design technology and training.
"Newfoundland and Labrador's aquaculture industry has experienced exciting developments in recent years that are leading to new opportunities for businesses," said Keith Hutchings, minister of innovation, business and rural development. "Silk Stevens' decision to expand into Grand Falls-Windsor is attributed to that growth and further positions the community as a service centre for the Coast of Bays region and other parts of the province engaged in aquaculture. It also demonstrates our government's commitment to attracting new investment and creating rewarding opportunities in rural areas of the province."
Fisheries and Aquaculture Minister Derrick Dalley said it's encouraging to see the aquaculture service sector expanding in this province.
"Aquaculture is a very important industry to many rural and coastal communities.," Dalley said. "The provincial government has invested significantly in its development, including over $24 million in projects since 2006, which has leveraged over $400 million from the private sector. Our collective success will undoubtedly mean greater employment and other opportunities for residents of our province, whether through farming efforts or in the service sector."
In its first year of operations, the company plans to hire three employees and eventually expand its workforce to 11 by the fifth year. Economically, the project is expected to attract $363,500 of direct new investment into the province. The net benefit to the provincial economy, over a five year period, is estimated at $2.16 million.
"I am delighted to see another business open its doors in Grand Falls-Windsor," said Susan Sullivan, minister of health and community services and MHA for Grand Falls-Windsor -Buchans. "This community recognizes the value of the aquaculture industry to the region and we are pleased to play such a vital role in servicing the sector," Sullivan said.
Newfoundland and Labrador's aquaculture industry continues to experience growth in terms of production and market value. In 2011 production rose 12.4 per cent to 17,264 tonnes, contributing $120 million to the provincial economy. There are about 133 licensed aquaculture sites employing more than 700 people.
"We are excited to be in Newfoundland and Labrador and Grand Falls-Windsor," said Silk Stevens president Dave Stevens. "We are perfectly centred here, as the mayor of Grand Falls-Windsor says, to grow our full service engineering design businesses as well as to play an engineering support role to an aquaculture industry that is rapidly growing," Stevens said. "It is a sector that has emerged as one of the best in the world with state-of-the-art hatcheries and world class cold water grow-out sites. There is international interest in exploring what we are doing here in Newfoundland and Labrador."
The investment was made through the provincial government's Business Attraction Fund. The 2012 provincial budget allocated $15.5 million under the Business Attraction Fund to enhance the province's ability to compete for and attract new national and international business investment.

A 56-year-old Washington man has been indicted on a robbery charge after police say he threw merchandise off the shelves of a borough store and brandished a knife while threatening to kill the owner.
David Zairo, of the first block of South Lincoln Avenue, also faces one count of making terroristic threats and various weapons charges, according to the indictment returned Wednesday by a Warren County grand jury.
If convicted, he faces up to 20 years in prison.
Authorities say Zairo on April 20 was inside the Washington Quick Mart on West Washington Avenue in the borough when he became angry and started tossing milk and other merchandise from the store's shelves.
While it was unclear what set Zairo off, police said he pulled out a knife when the owner approached him and Zairo threatened to kill the man. Zairo eventually left the store and when police found him nearby, he still had the knife as well as some items he had taken from the store, police said previously.
According to court records, Zairo was prohibited from having a weapon due to a previous conviction for endangering the welfare of a child. He was sentenced in 1999 to 100 days in the county jail and three years of probation after he pleaded guilty to the charge, records say.
Then living in Phillipsburg, Zairo was accused of leaving his child alone in their Roseberry Street apartment. Police said the child was crying "hysterically" and Zairo was found drinking at a local bar, according to Express-Times archives.
His probation was revoked in 2002, according to records, and a judge resentenced him to 364 days in jail.
Zairo remained this afternoon in the Warren County jail in lieu of $20,000 bail.

SARANAC LAKE - Pendragon Theatre will host a multi-media lecture series with scholar John DiLeo Sunday called "T. Williams and Company: His Essential Screen Actors" and on Monday titled "Streetcar is that you?: The On-Screen Imitators of William's Masterwork."
A book signing will follow the lectures.
John DiLeo biography
DiLeo is the author of five books about classic movies: "And You Thought You Knew Classic Movies!: 200 Quizzes for Golden Age Movie Lovers" (1999); "100 Great Film Performances You Should Remember But Probably Don't" (2002); "Screen Savers: 40 Remarkable Movies Awaiting Rediscovery" (2007); "Tennessee Williams and Company: His Essential Screen Actors" (2010); "Screen Savers II: My Grab Bag of Classic Movies" (2012).
DiLeo has presented his Tennessee Williams programs at the Williams festivals in Provincetown and New Orleans.
Attend a lecture and receive $5 off a ticket to a "Streetcar" performance. Tickets are $10 or free for 17 years and younger.
For more information, call 518-891-1854, email firstname.lastname@example.com, visit on Facebook or go to www.pendragontheatre.org.
Sunday, July 14, 4 p.m.
"Tenessee Williams and Company:
His Essential Screen Actors"
DiLeo revisits the Tennessee Williams films but with a twist, focusing on eleven actors who appear in morethan one of the Williams movies, an unofficial stock company of repeat players. In a companion program to his book, Tennessee Williams and Company: His Essential Screen Actors, DiLeo examines these 11 actors and their Williams roles, including Marlon Brando, Vivien Leigh, Karl Malden, Anna Magnani, Paul Newman, Elizabeth Taylor, Joanne Woodward, Geraldine Page, Richard Burton, Mildred Dunnock, and Madeleine Sherwood.
Monday, July 15, 7 p.m.
"Streetcar ... Is That You: The on-screen
imitators of Williams' master work"
DiLeo continues his look at the films of Tennessee Williams by exploring movies that borrowed (sometimes shamelessly) from "A Streetcar Named Desire," films both famous ("Look Back in Anger") and obscure ("Storm Warning").
Among the refashioned stand-ins for Blanche, Stanley, and Stella you'll find Ginger Rogers, Doris Day, Richard Burton, Claire Bloom and Margaret Leighton. Plus a bonus of Williams-related surprises from Humphrey Bogart in "The Big Sleep," Woody Allen and Diane Keaton in "Sleeper" and Meryl Streep in "Death Becomes Her."

RELATED: Grand Rapids considers ending free weekend parking at on-street meters
GRAND RAPIDS, MI – About half of the available monthly parking cards for the city ramp at the corner of Fulton Street and Ottawa Avenue NW – where a spot costs $126 per month – are unsold. Meanwhile, one-sixth of a mile south on Ottawa, surface parking lots where spots costs $75 per month are full.
A few more steps south, in crowded lots across Oakes Street, public parking costs $55 per month. Another block south, across Cherry Street adjacent to Rapid Central Station, the monthly price of public parking is $43 – just $3 more than a 31-day bus pass. That lot's sold out, too.
Compared to demand for parking in most of the city's downtown ramps, demand for parking in surface lots is high. Are the rates out of whack?
"If all the spaces are taken, it means that your pricing is too low," said Kris Larson, president and chief executive officer of Downtown Grand Rapids, Inc.
In conjunction with a new downtown planning process spearheaded by DGRI, the city's parking system is spending $168,000 to have a consultant evaluate parking rates and other parking issues.
Among the topics of study: parking requirements for downtown properties, the future of DASH shuttle service, long-term parking supply and demand, incentives for using transportation other than personal motor vehicles and how higher parking rates might affect business conditions.
The Parking Commission on Thursday, April 3, will begin an annual review of parking rates. The city's current rate-setting policy, which is based on inflation, suggests expanding the pricing gap between ramps and surface lots.
"What I'm really looking for from the consultant is to first review our rate-setting methodology (that's currently pegged to inflation). It might be that your base rate that you're starting from isn't correct or isn't where it should be," said Pam Ritsema, the city's managing director of enterprise services, including the parking system. "Do you want a rate-setting methodology that reflects occupancy?
"There's issues like, well, should you ever have a parking lot rate that is less than the cost of a monthly bus pass? Certainly, there's a push to have surface-lot pricing closer to or equal to ramp pricing. I don't know if lots go up or ramps come down."
Parking rates in the city's surface lots west of U.S. 131 range from $26 to $30 per month, and they also are mostly full. Ditto for the city's surface lots immediately north of I-196, where prices range from $44 to $48 per month.
But the city's 76-space Ionia-Mason lot one mile from the center of downtown doesn't have a single monthly-parking subscriber. The city has piled mounds of snow in the lot this winter.
A recent round of labor deals with city unions relocated scores of city employees from surface parking lots to downtown ramps. Pending redevelopment of some surface lots south of Fulton also has displaced parking customers in those areas.
The consultant will consider what continued development pressure means for the future of parking in Grand Rapids.
• Labor deals move employees to parking ramps as Grand Rapids loses cheaper surface lots
• Grand Rapids to MDOT: Reconsider the future of U.S. 131
Mayor George Heartwell in his 2013 State of the City address called for a 10-percent shift in transportation modes: meaning 10 percent more commuters coming downtown without a personal motor vehicle.
DGRI has hired a staffer to help downtown employers and workers explore alternative forms of transportation. The city's parking consultant - Desman Associates - will explore how pricing fits in the current market and how it can "influence driver behavior," according to a study plan. The consultant also "will examine variable rate structures to balance supply and demand" among city parking spaces.
"You don't want to drive up prices too rapidly to stifle (economic activity)," Heartwell said. "On the other hand, parking rates are a legitimate tool to shift (transportation) mode.
"It's a delicate balance."

There is a movement to toll I-90 across Mercer Island to (1) raise additional funds to pay for the 520 bridge and (2) to collect tolls from those who drive across I-90 to avoid the 520 tolls. However, Mercer Island residents and visitors would suffer disproportionately if tolls were placed in the standard way on I-90.
There is a way to toll I-90 that meets both objectives of raising funds tolling those using I-90 to avoid the 520 tolls. This tolling method would not unfairly affect Mercer Islanders, employees, small businesses or visitors. All vehicles crossing the Island on I-90 would pay tolls, but those driving between the Island and either the east or west side of the lake would not. This can be done as follows:
• Tolling devices would be placed at the floating bridge and the East Channel bridge. They would identify vehicles passing on and off the Island at both bridges.
• Vehicles crossing the Island would be identified as they came onto the Island and again as they passed off the Island on the other side. The tolling equipment on both bridges would report to a computer that would determine if a vehicle had crossed the Island within a set time period. If the time between when a vehicle drove onto the Island on one bridge and off the Island on the other bridge was less than, say, 30 minutes, a toll would be levied. Thus, tolls would be levied only on those vehicles going across Mercer Island on I-90.
• Those driving on and off the Island on the same bridge or passing off the Island on the other bridge over 30 minutes later would not be tolled.
If tolls on I-90 are inevitable, I strongly urge consideration of this tolling method. It meets the tolling objectives and is also fair to Mercer Island residents, workers and visitors.

edit David Lynch
I like a lot of what you added, and I didn't like a lot, too. Thing about it is, it's kind of my article in the sense that I wrote it and it got featured and whatnot, so yeah. I know this is a wiki, so if you want to add something to that or any other article, you can, but that also means I reserve the right to revert whatever it is you add, or at least delete large portions of it. I don't mean to get all passive-aggressive or anything, and I do find a lot of what you added funny, but when it comes down to it I don't like other people editing stuff of mine, so yeah. I suppose I have to live with it, with this being a wiki and all, but if you find a large portion of the stuff you added gone the next time you go to the Lynch article, just know it's nothing personal, or anything. So yeah.
Anyway, from the looks of it, you seem to be fairly new here. That being said, have fun! Hope ya stick around, and whatnot. This is a cool little site, and once you get to know the place it's a riot. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 05:37, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

edit RE your comments on VFH
I nearly missed them as I rarely go back and check after I have finished voting on an article. Now ignoring you sarcasm, no, I didn't get the feeling that it was a take on the Al Pacino style of film and the stereotyping in there, which is why I said what I did. The truth is I read it and felt uncomfortable, and I'm as white as they come Australian. If I found it... well, I won't say offensive, as I wasn't, but I will say questionable, then I dare to say that others will too, which is one of the reasons that I wouldn't vote for it for front page.
Secondary to that though is the fact that if I ignored this section, which I did, I didn't feel that the article carried the humour through to the end. Fantastic concept, brilliant imagery, but it seems to meander back and forth across styles, with a lack of consistency on the voice.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it's a bad article, far from it. I think it could be improved though. I think with a number of good edits - say a 10% - 20% amendment for the better - it could be far better.
One thing I will say on the listy aspect, even though that wasn't a criticism of mine, is that I've noticed if you have your lists in a few columns it doesn't have as much of a negative effect. Usually I think of it as just clearing up whitespace. kind of like this.
Hope that clears it up. Sorry if you were offended by what I said, but I re-read it and still can't get the funny out of the stereotyping, even with the fact that you are ripping on the stereotyping in the movies themselves.
Pup t 04:50, 23/10/2009
- Thanks for explaining things, and helping me understand your issues with it. Maybe I have watched too many "growing up in the hood" movies, and can't really properly recognise the inherent racism. I liked the box idea very much, so much that I have already put it in. thnx anyway, and in a few days or so I may do some edits where I would not have noticed them right now. --Matfen815 09:51, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
- P.S. If you thought this was racist, i would love to hear what you think about my Christian Bale article. --Matfen815 12:36, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
- Long. But there's good stuff in there. I'm assuming you're relating to the stuff on Kanye, and to be honest that doesn't bother me as a racial stereotype as much as the other. In fact, this is almost like watching Be Cool and the stereotype of the rappers from the hood, as much as a stab at Kanye himself. Having said that I don't think that it fits in with the rest of the article as it is a script, rather than an encyclopaedic entry. I would potentially look at splitting this into two articles - the UnScript of the Leno show - which could be expanded into an article of it's own - and the remainder being the encyclopaedic entry on Bale. You have modelled most of it on Wikipedia:Christian Bale which I think is fantastic. Keep it the same structure up to the Filmography and awards (as a list of awards and films starts to become listy and unfunny) and it will be a stronger article.
- P.S. I love the Kermit the frog images. Very cool. Pup t 06:45, 24/10/2009
- P.S. If you thought this was racist, i would love to hear what you think about my Christian Bale article. --Matfen815 12:36, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
edit Christian Bale
Okay, I haven't been asked for this, but I'm going to say it anyway because I really like the way this article is shaping up. Christian Bale has a huge amount of potential, but I am having problems with the Baleism section. Can that be twisted into Christian Bale, in an attempt to tone down his violence due to ever growing civil and criminal charges, sought solace in religion. Realising that he was in fact superior (in his own mind) to any number of Deities that he compared himself to, it was only natural that he then declare himself his own Deity. "I sought help from my higher power", he said, "Only to discover that there was no power higher than me."
Second thing is the fun facts/Trivia section. I despise this section on IMDB and Wikipedia, and even though it is what you are trying to emulate/parody, even on Wikipedia the preference is now to do away with these sections as part of their style guide. (I know I've read it somewhere, but buggered if I can find the reference now.) I also have an issue with the {{USERNAME}} as I feel that it is a little over-used, and here it doesn't really feel right at all. Could I suggest going through this and winnowing it out, cutting it down to about half the length that it is now?
Thirdly, I would really like to nominate this for VFH, but I am also a really stringent bastard and try to get my own work as close to perfect as I can before I nominate it. So keep me in the loop as to what changes you make to it, and what changes you're thinking of making.
Oh, and lastly, I've had my internet capped for the month, which slows me down so much that I avoid the issue by browsing without images. The stars that you use in the infobox are taken from another site and they make a horrible mess when you have images off. Could I suggest you upload them to Uncyc media so you can [[Image:Star1.gif|✱]] [[Image:Star2.gif|✲]]. That way if there is an issue with the image loading it will still give the same effect. or alternatively, just replace the with ✱ and ✲.
And sorry for the unsolicited advice, but as I said, it has potential to be your first feature, and I'd like to see it get over the line.
Pup 22:50, 28/10/2009
- very kind of you for your input, and I wondered why some of my artices were running abit slower than usual. I just need to clarify some stuff before I start editing.
- Do you want a complete rewrite for the baleism section, or do you just want me to replace what conflicts with the new stuff?
- Do you want the entire fun fact and trivia setion removed, or just around half of it. I looked through it and theres only about 6 I really like, and I suppose I could try integrating them into other places in the article. eg Personal Life. I'll admit that I only really created the facts section because there were a few i had in mind, and it was somewhere to put the funny pictures that I either don't have room for or can't make relevant to any other section.
- ON the gangsta-meter rating thing, if you feel it should just be taken out, I'll understand because to be honest, that was more of an inside joke I've always had, that I'm not sure anyone else finds funny besides me.
- I am quite surprised that anyone else in the world knows who Christian Bale is. I have been a fan of his since I was 14, and cannot help but include him in all my articles so far. I dunno why, it just keeps happening. I need mental help. Anyway, thank-you very much for your help, you are surely one of the better uncyclopedians out there, as well as one of the friendlier ones. Deepest sympathies about your internet, and can only hope it eventually returns to its original bandwith. I failed my driving test with 5 minors and 1 major today, so am also quite cheesed off. anyway thanks again. --Matfen815 19:25, October 29, 2009 (UTC)
- The gangsta-meter thing is minor. I only mentioned it because of the issue it caused with images not loading. It's a good parody of the whole IMDB thing, so it's worth keeping.
- If you can completely cull the fun facts section, then do it. It is a weakness in the article.
- As for the Baleism section, my concern was that it came in too strong too fast, and it should be used more as an opportunity to show how arrogant he is.
- And to be honest, wouldn't have recognised Christian Bale's name if it weren't for the Terminator incident. If you can add an MP3 of that to this article it would work in well.
- Sorry to hear about the driving test. Most people I know miss out first time around, so don't take it personally. Pup 00:37, 30/10/2009
Okay, I've done all the changes, so you might like to have a quick glance to see if I've missed anything out anything. Right now I just need to proof-read it if you have no more changes to recommend, so i'll tell you when it is ready for highlight if i hear nothing else from you.

- I liked the article on Christian Bale. That was the reason I suggested the minor changes as it was going a bit too far in my view especially about Christopher Nolan. Best if you are going to write about someone living is to make so silly that no one could get offended or use what is already out there as known facts (like Christian Bale's temper). Hope you do stick around - this is a very good start . --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate). 12:16, November 5, 2009 (UTC)
edit Monsieur Bale
Hey man, sorry, didn't mean to be rude and I'd actually have left that as an abstain or not voted at all but that I was eagerly awaiting my next smoke and hence not really in sympathetic mode. There's nothing actually wrong with the article, I can't really defend my choice except that it didn't consistently make me laugh and isn't the type of article I personally like to read, but that's not really a reason to vote against, so I'll remove the vote.

edit Review of Obi-Wan Kenobi
You are welcome on the review. I am glad you have taken it to be constructive rather than an insult. As a new user to Uncycloperdia (I only found out about its existence quite recently) I was a little worried that you may take it badly as, quite obviously, I don't know you. As such, I did feel a little reluctant to post that review because, as we all know, writing a funny article is not easy. As I said in the review, it was obvious that a lot of effort had gone into it.
Having briefly looked at some of the Star Wars entries since receiving your message, I agree that some of your material would go quite well in those. (Particularly the prequel trilogy, which looked rather threadbare). Anyway, keep up the good work on the writing. Articles written by people who abviously know the subject matter well are probably always going to get make a better read. SuperBario 13:21, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Well, then you can correct any mistakes you see. That's obvious. And I didn't want to make bad grammar intentionally. And btw, never, ever, ever use English-Polish translator. Translator doesn't feel our language at all and as a result gives something I hardly even understand :) (translator can't see when to change case and use different aspect etc.) Polish is totally fucked up and impossible to translate this way, believe me.

Fortunately, a long time later when I got around to actually editing, I'd already read several featured articles.

edit Reasonable British Dude
Were it that I had cultivated any sort of belief in a deity, he would be thanked. I was waiting quite a while on that review. ty for the input. about 80% of that article was thrown together in an ROP class, so i cant say I was too happy with the result xD but i couldn't seem to focus on it, so i thought I'd get some input. lo and behold, it has come.
Anyways, the drink itself is, indeed, a parody of health drinks. the page to hold the powerthirst namespace before mine was a reiteration of the joke theme of this parody. THIS article, however, is a PARODY of the aforementioned parody. ^^ It's quite popular, on youtube, having received well over 17 million views, not counting the many millions it shares with its sequel and subsequent spin-offs. I'm more than surprised you didn't find it almost instantly with a google search. I recommend a look, as quite a few of the jokes, especially the listed side effects, are almost unintelligible without having seen it. And its pretty funny. If you DO decide to watch it, you HAVE to watch the second, "rocket edition". T'was a masterpiece. Ive taken most of your advice to heart, and as a fellow insomniac, will do my best to work out what kinks i can, as my consciousness fades into the coming dawn. --XcaptainXobliviousX 12:46, December 19, 2009 (UTC)

edit Well
Well... it really depends because "Polak" spelled same as "Polack" means "the Pole" in Polish. But actually some Poles know that Polack in English is an offensive word. So you should be careful with using this ;). There is no one good answer. Actually, some people that do not speak English well can be happy that you call his nationality in their own language ;) Sir Ptok-BentonicznyPisz tutaj • KUN 16:36, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
To be honest: I would rather feel offended if some random American guy called me "Pollack" as I would know that he uses it as an ethnic slur.
- Yeah, when you know it's being used as an ethnic slur you can pretty much take it for granted that it's offensive. BTW I'm highly offended that you implied me to be an american. But I'll let it slide seeing as I just used the word Polack about 4 times. We just wondered was all. We weren't planning to bully some polish person (we don't actually know any). You never know, we might start our own polish version of the wigger, "Wolack". Although Polish peeps are pretty much white anyway, so it doesn't make sense. Maybe a british person pretending to be polish could be called a "Bolack", although that would be close to the word "bollock", a british euphamism for a testicle. Either way, we have no hope of learning how to speak your language, so I don't think it'll take off. Thanks for your insightful lesson on polishical correctness ;) --Matfen 16:55, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, I didn't imply that You are American. I implied that American use that word more than other English users ;). And Wolack would work as here in Poland former Polish prime minister made a gaffe while singing Polish anthem. Instead of "z ziemi włoskiej do Polski" ("From Italy to Poland") he sang "z ziemi polskiej w(ł)olski" (that could be translated to 'from Poland to Woland"). Poles are still laughing at him due to this. That was popular internet phenomenom in Poland "Gdzie jest Wolska?" ("Where is Woland?) etc. So still, the Pole after being called 'Wolack' could wonder if you heard about that case ;). And rather not many Poles know what "bollock" means so Bolack would be a hidden offense ;) Sir Ptok-BentonicznyPisz tutaj • KUN 18:30, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
And if you wonder, the Poles sometimes (rather quite often tbh) call British people "Angole" (spelled: anɡɔlɛ in IPA) - word that derives from Anglia (what's England in Polish) and is similar to Angola - country in Africa; and is translated to Australian English word pommy. ;).

E.g Past perfect and past simple are translated in the same fashion without any difference and English teachers usually freak out trying to explain the difference (and same: present simple and present continuous are also translated same) ;p.

A Nevada man and an Elk Grove woman somehow managed to escape with only minor injuries after a near head-on collision Tuesday that backed up traffic for miles in both directions on Highway 88 near Sunnybrook.
The California Highway Patrol said Willard Wehe, 68, of Wellington, Nevada, was westbound on Highway 88 east of Upper Jackson Valley Road just before 9:30 a.m. when the accident
occurred. As Wehe drove his 2007 Ford truck, for unknown reasons, he drifted off the north side of the road and onto the gravel shoulder before drifting back onto the road and into the eastbound lanes where he collided with a 2010 Toyota driven by Theresa Cadimas, 49, of Elk Grove. The force of the collision caused both vehicles to overturn before coming to rest in a gully on the south side of the highway. Both drivers sustained only minor injuries, although both vehicles were heavily damaged.
Earlier in the week, on July 12, an Oregon man was hospitalized after being involved in a single vehicle accident on Highway 88 west of Silver Drive that investigators said involved alcohol.
Edward Anthony Pena, 65, of Bend, Oregon, was driving a 1997 Chrysler Sebring eastbound when he failed to negotiate a left turn in the roadway. Pena drove off the edge of the roadway and collided with a road sign and several trees before his car overturned and came to rest on its left side.
Pena suffered major injuries and was airlifted to Sutter Roseville Medical Center for treatment. He was subsequently arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence.
A Jackson man was also arrested for driving under the influence following another single car accident July 13. In that incident, the CHP said John Robert Johnstone, 24, was driving a 2001 Toyota Tacoma truck northbound on Curran Road when, due to his "excessive level of intoxication," he traveled off the road and struck a tree. Both Johnstone and a passenger, whose name and age were not released, sustained moderate injuries and were taken to Sutter Amador Hospital in Jackson for treatment. Johnstone was subsequently arrested on felony charges of DUI stemming from the injuries to his passenger.
Alcohol again played a role in an accident on Highway 49 north of the Dry Creek bridge, in Drytown, July 15. The CHP said Fredrick Weaver, 64, of Sutter Creek, was driving a 2003 Ford southbound approaching Drytown and the bridge when the accident occurred. Witnesses said as Weaver entered the town and was negotiating a right-hand curve, he increased his speed, was unable to negotiate the curve and crossed over the double-yellow lines in the roadway.
Juan Lopez-Arriaga, a 42-year-old Reno, Nevada resident, was driving a 2003 GMC northbound and attempted to take evasive action, but was unable to avoid being struck by Weaver's Ford, which, after the collision, came to rest in the parking lot of the Drytown Club. No injuries were reported to either driver, nor to a passenger in Lopez-Arriaga's car identified as Luis Hernandez, 46, of Sparks, Nevada. Weaver was arrested at the scene on suspicion of driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage.

Yahoo! News – Former U.N. weapons inspector says timing of arrest reports is suspicious
Something's rotten in the state of Denmark. The Ritter arrest, as I was lead to believe in my cursory glance of the story the other day, I had thought was recent (as in the arrest was made within the last month). Hey, I'll freely admit I thought little of it. I'm no more fond of Scott Ritter than I am Jack Ritter.
Turns out the arrest was made in 2001, and the case was dismissed, and the records sealed. But as Drudge links more stories about "War Within Weeks," Ritter, who despite his protestations that he is a leading antiwar agent, is nevertheless, one with a fair amount of credence in his arguments (compared to say, International ANSWER at least). So if the records are sealed and the case has been dismissed … how does one explain the timing of all this? Anyone? Anyone? Buehler?

Jaime Pressly, Kelly Carlson and Christina Moore are just three beautiful Hollywood stars who have questions about staying beautiful. And lucky for them, "Extra's" got some answers, straight from the top skin doctors in Los Angeles!
Pressly, who has a tough time taking care of her skin while shooing in exotic locations, wants to know: how can she keep her pores clean while shooting in China with 118 degrees weather, 100 percent humidity and makeup caked on all day?
Well Jaime, dermatologist Dr. Jessica Wu has the answer that may help. "Look for a cleanser that contains either salicylic acid or glycolic acid to keep your pores clean and skin exfoliated and smooth," she recommended. "I like Neutrogena Pore Refining Cleanser or Dr. Jessica Wu's Cosmeceuticals Refining Cleanser."
On her show "Nip/Tuck," Kelly Carlson has gone under the knife, but in real life the actress wants to know how she can tighten her face without getting a face lift.
And for Kelly, Dr. Karen Grossman has an answer. "Thermage treatments use radio frequency to shrink and tighten skin," she said. "It works really well to lift up in the brow area."
Meanwhile, blonde beauty Christina Moore says fear of needles fueled her question: does Botox hurt?
Dr. Stuart Kaplan says fear no more, Christina. "You can put numbing creams on," Kaplan recommended. "And also if you put ice on it five or 10 minutes before that, it also goes a long way in decreasing pain."
Thanks for the questions ladies; we're happy to help with some "Extra" free advice.

He won World titles in WWE (then called WWF) and in WCW, and he feuded with Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, and Ric Flair at Wrestlemania.
Savage's theme music was "Pomp and Circumstance," the instrumental that plays at school graduations.
When it played at my high school graduation, I seriously considered strutting into the auditorium hollering "Ohhhh yeah."
He was almost as famous for his Slim Jim commercials where he insisted we "Snap into it.".
Wrestling personalities remembered him on Twitter. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin said, he was a "hellacious performer."
Tommy Dreamer said, "Randy Savage was the first person I saw piledrive someone through a table. "
Chris Jericho said, "Randy Savage was a true influence and inspiration to me and taught me some very important lessons, in and out of the ring."
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson said Savage was "one of my childhood inspirations and heroes."
Savage came to fame as an evildoer in feuds with George "the Animal" Steele and Ricky "the Dragon" Steamboat, which culminated in one of my favorite matches, at Wrestlemania III.
His team-up with Hulk Hogan and their breakup, from 1987 to 1989, are classic pro-wrestling moments. He claimed Hogan "lusted in his heart" for Elizabeth. Most of the story was performed on "Saturday Night's Main Event" on NBC.
One of my favorite wrestling moments is his reunion with Elizabeth at Wrestlemania VII.
Savage became a cartoon voice actor, including "Dial M for Monkey" on Cartoon Network's "Cow and Chicken." He was also in the movie "Bolt," and played himself on "Family Guy."
My favorite thing about Macho Man were his interviews. He mixed comedy with craziness and rage.
His most recent appearance was for the WWE game WWE All Stars (here's the Techcetera review.)
Here he is talking about the game, Macho Man style.
In 1994, he jumped companies to WCW. His first appearance
in a match in WCW may have been here in Birmingham, at the Boutwell
I was in the audience when Sting announced he had an opponent for the evil Avalanche in that night's main event.
I'm not certain this really was Savage's very first WCW match. Wrestling
federations went around the country for dozens of
auditorium shows when they weren't taping TV shows. But Sting was a good
guy, so I choose to take him at his word.
Macho Man's music played, he yanked back the curtains and appeared in the Boutwell entrance aisle, an unannounced surprise.
The audience came unglued.
The crowd's response was incredible, hollering and chanting "Macho Man." I'll never forget it. Take that, so-called "real" sports.
Macho links
For a pro wrestling historian's look at Savage's wrestling career, check out an excellent story here.
WWE recently released a Macho Man greatest-hits DVD.
Here is WWE's tribute page.
Joe Crowe writes Gamebits on Monday's Techknow page of the Birmingham News.

Arlington Kiwanis Club honors Virginia Hatch
ARLINGTON — She may have been forced to slow down her hectic pace, but Virginia Hatch still plans to stay active in the Arlington community, and Hatch's tireless spirit was one of the reasons cited for awarding her this year's Kiwanis Club of Arlington's Community Service Award.
Arlington Kiwanis Secretary Jan Bauer credited Hatch with helping to start the free "Music in the Park" and "Movie Nights at Terrace Park" projects, which include free popcorn and bottled water provided by the Arlington Kiwanis.
Bauer likewise praised the active roles Hatch has played in the Arlington Garden Club, the Arlington Arts Council, Dollars for Scholars, the Friends of the Library, and the city of Arlington's Parks, Arts and Recreation Commission, the latter of which she once chaired, as well as in other organizations.
"In looking around the Arlington area, one can see Virginia's hand in many wonderful accomplishments," Bauer wrote in a statement to the press. "When Kids' Kloset was getting started, she helped out by sorting clothes and getting everything ready for the opening. When Jensen Park was being built, she rallied the Arlington Kiwanis, Lions and Rotary clubs to work together to build the playground set, and she saw an opportunity for an artist to paint a scene on the picnic shelter."
Bauer further cited Hatch's influence in rallying these and other service organizations to purchase benches for bus stops where people were sitting on the ground, as well as to install the city's downtown labyrinth. Most recently, Hatch has been involved with the Arlington Food Bank and Hands Together, a group devoted to helping people in need.
"Virginia is first and foremost for the kids and wanting to provide activities and a safe place for them to play," Bauer said.
Hatch described herself as surprised and honored by the award, which she received Oct. 6.
"In a town like Arlington, there are so many volunteers that I hesitated to be singled out, because there are so many other people who have been giving back for decades," Hatch said. "I greatly appreciate it nonetheless."
Hatch explained that health issues have required her to ease up on some of her many commitments, but pledged to remain active in the Arlington Arts Council and Hands Together.

That was a Glenn Close line in the movie "Fatal Attraction.'' So before any of you SU fans even begin thinking about boiling any bunnies, I'll answer some of the questions that have entered my email-box recently.
Hi Mike,
Read your blog religously. Is that game with SU recruits that was scheduled for Manley (on Dec. 16) before the Baylor game a reality? We'd come to Syracuse from Florida in December just to see that! Please advise so I can have my longjohns fitted and pressed.
Cal Rogers
Celebration, Florida
Get those longjohns ready. The high school triple-header is a go for Saturday, Dec. 16. The games will be at Manley, beginning around noon. Syracuse plays Baylor that same night at the Dome. The Dome can't be used for the high school games because Baylor must be allowed a shoot-around at the Dome on game day.
The games are as follows with SU recruits in parentheses:
CBA vs. Rice
Towson Catholic (Donte Greene) vs. Neumann-Goretti (Rick Jackson and Antonio Jardine)
Jamesville-DeWitt vs. Niagara Falls (Johnny Flynn)
Hi Mike,
I love your blog. You guys do a great Job! I was wondering what you thought of Andy Katz�s position of SU in his top 50. He has us at 21.
I think at this stage of the year, that is a good place for them. I think they could be better than that, and I also think they could be worse. There is a lot to be determined, by the time the team gets through their non-conference schedule.
Your thoughts?
I think No. 21 is about right. Remember my blog entry when Dick Vitale's top 40 came out and Syracuse wasn't in it? This is a bit a change for Andy. A while back, he did a pre-season ranking and didn't have Syracuse in his Top 25.
It all goes to my theory that people are overlooking Syracuse because all they focused on last year was Gerry McNamara and now all they're looking at is his departure.
Syracuse has four returning starters, including three seniors, and will add the best freshman in the Big East in Paul Harris. There's experienced depth in Matt Gorman, Josh Wright, Andy Rautins and Arinze Onuaku.
There might be an adjustment period as the SU players learn to play without McNamara around to take the big shots, but I don't think that'll last long with guys like Eric Devendorf and Harris around.
How come no one is writing an article on Boeheim coaching Carmelo again for U.S. team?
Well, one obvious reason is Boeheim and Carmelo are in Japan and I'm in Syracuse. We've tried to cover the U.S. team's play with stories everyday in the paper.
Rest assured that when the championships end and Boeheim and Carmelo return to the States, I'll track them down for interviews.
Mike & Kim,
You've both watched the Orange play on NBA courts versus Villanova (76ers) and Georegtown (Wiz). I love when they turn off the lights and announce the opposing team's starting five. Now granted it's hard to look at Mike Nardi's face on the big screen for more than five seconds in the Wachovia Center, albeit I still get excited.
How about turning off the lights in the Dome for our starting five this year? We could throw in a few highlights of each player on the big screen. Maybe place their signatures in lights on the court. All of this while playing the newest urban street song (edited version) in the background. What do you say?
- Craig Zajac
I think Syracuse's pre-game introductions could and should be jazzed up, too.
First of all, the music should be selected by someone under the age of 50. I'm 42 and even I think the pre-game music is dated. (You should see Kim's reaction to some of the Dome tunes.) Last year, I think they used an Eminem song, but because they started the song at its very beginning, the introductions were over by the time you got to the recognizable riff.
Here's a suggestion: As each individual player is introduced, they should run his highlights up on the video-boards.
Ever since I was at the SU-Michigan State game in 2003, I thought Syracuse should run a highlight video before the team comes out of the locker room and then end it with a live camera on the team as they run through the tunnel. Trust me. The Michigan State video was cool.
When I was a kid growing up in Knoxville, Tennessee's players busted through a huge T. (And I'm not talking about a few strands of crepe paper like the SU football does). Imagine having Terrence Roberts or Paul Harris being the first player introduced and he busts through a big orange S?
However, the Dome prevents some things from being done and the darkened lights thing is one of them. The Dome's lighting is different from ordinary buildings and it takes a long time for the lights to come back if they're turned off.
Thanks for the piece recounting the 2006 Big East Tourney. Clearly,
despite their good intentions, the people at MSG missed this one. I
can't wait to see #50 because, well, there's no way it beats the 2006
One quick quesion: Are you aware of any DVD commemorating the 2006
Brian McKain
I thought the Big East might produce such a DVD, but I found out that ESPN holds the rights to any video or DVD of the Big East Tournament.
Syracuse University could work out a deal with ESPN, but I've not heard of any such activity.
There are some folks out there (and they know who they are) who are putting together boot-leg copies of SU's games in the Big East Tourney. It's not exactly kosher, but I like the fact that some people are willing to fill a void since it doesn't look like anyone's making a big profit. Just covering expenses.

Well, was that a week or was it a week!
The Nova Star ferry entered Yarmouth harbour and received a rock star's welcome.
Nova Star arriving in Yarmouth on Tuesday morning. FRED A. HATFIELD PHOTO
Soon as it became visible the hundreds assembled on the waterfront erupted into a cheer.
In a town with more than its share of knocks the reception the Nova Star received last Tuesday was perfectly understandable.
This was not a ho-hum moment.
It was a sign that all is not gloom and doom, a message of hope that we should hang onto and build upon.
It's easy to be negative. Some people expect the worst and probably hope for it. Let those naysayers live for the day they can say "told you so." And let's work to make sure that day doesn't come. Or if it does – life affords no guarantees, after all – let's make sure it's not because of a lack of effort on our part.
The leaders in our community are quick to say we should all see this ferry's arrival as a start. It's not the solution to all our woes —and we have plenty of those. But it is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise hurting community.
As people like the mayor keep telling us, we need to work at making sure we're ready for however many visitors the new ferry brings to our shores.
Make sure the stores and restaurants are open to serve the travelling public.
- Read more special articles:
- Nova Star arrival a big day for Yarmouth
- VIDEO: Nova Star makes 1st visit to Yarmouth
- Delivering the harbour pilot to the Nova Star
- PHOTO ESSAY: Nova Star pays a visit
Make sure each and every one of us acts as an ambassador for this community, for this province … heck, for this country.
Work hard at cleaning things up. Do something positive to bring about a positive change.
One thing's for certain: we cannot afford to be complacent.
Just as an incredible group of people worked hard to see the Nova Star sail into Yarmouth harbour, we need to harness that energy, that ability to get things done, to ignore the negativity and make things better.
Talk to anyone who worked to get the Nova Star here and none will say it was easy.
Most of the things needed to pull this community back up will not be easy. But the Nova Star sitting at dockside last week should serve as a perfect example of what can be done if we get the right people behind a dream and let them go to work.
And if you encounter any naysayers who keep refusing to believe anything good or positive can happen around here, just say: Remember the Nova Star!

PARSIPPANY — A Wayne man arrested after he reportedly used his soccer cleat to stomp on another man's face during a game last fall has been accepted into a pretrial intervention program.
David Pekarek, 30, was charged with third-degree aggravated assault following a Nov. 7 incident in which, witnesses reportedly said, he slammed down his foot on the face of a 23-year-old Wayne man after the two were knocked down during a rough play.
The other man, who was knocked unconscious for about 20 seconds, was transported to Morristown Memorial Medical Center for his injuries, which included abrasions and swelling, police said at the time.
Pekarek was admitted into a 24-month intervention program and will also serve 50 hours of community service in order to resolve the charge.

Dr. Richard Shaink, president of Mott Community College (MCC), will be awarded the 2010 Central Region Chief Executive Officer Award, presented by the Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT).
This Washington-based award is annually given to recognize the country's top community college CEO's.
It's one of five Regional Chief Executive Officer Awards given at the ACCT conference and means that Shaink is the sole nominee from the Midwest region for the prestigious national Marie Y. Martin CEO Award to be decided at the conference.
The award ceremony is set for Oct. 20-23 at the ACCT Annual Community College Leadership Congress in Toronto, Canada.
"I am very pleased that Dr. Shaink has received this national recognition from his peers around the country ... " MCC Board Chair Lenore Croudy said in a press release earlier this week.
"Our community should be proud to see Dr. Shaink receive this most prestigious and well-deserved award."

Lilies, a softbox, and a Fuji X pro 1
Had been looking at ways to shoot these Lilies for a few days, wanted something different than the standard flower head shot. A few of the heads had not opened so I sort of deconstructed them for this shoot. The lighting was a simple setup, using a Nikon sb800 flash head, in a small portable softbox. Set the flash on manual at 1/125th power. Firing the flash through a yongnuo rf trigger. Shooting with this flash setup could not be simpler set your chosen shutterspeed, needs to be under 250th as the rf trigger doesn't synch above 250th. Adjust your aperture and away you go. I placed the softbox as near as I could to soften the light. The film setting was Astia and all images were taken at ISO 200 with the Fuji 35mm.

Niuserre Izi
5th Dynasty
Izi (Niuserre) was the sixth king of the Dyn. V. He ruled Ancient Egypt from 2416 till 2392 BC, and is famous for both his solar temple at Abu Gorab and his pyramid at Abu Sir. The reliefs in the burial chamber of his pyramid describe his military campaigns against Libyan rivals in the Western Desert and against the Asiatics in Sinai. He left an inscription at Wadi Maghara which served as a guide to the mineral mines of the region. His two wives, Reputneb and Khentikus, were buried near him at Abu Sir.

Chicago (www.incnow.tv) - An effort to defund Planned Parenthood in the Hoosier state has been thrown out by the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago.
The court upheld the core portion of a lower court order that said Indiana cannot enforce a state law that barred abortion providers from collecting Medicaid funds for any medical services.
You may recall, Governor Mitch Daniels signed a law in 2011 that made the Hoosier state the first in the nation to deny the organization Medicaid funds.
