yes I have reported your tax exempt charity 501 (c) to the IRS, and the Florida department of law enforcement. Betcha ole "Jimbo" will be in for a rude awakening. I think 135 e-mails from your cult is enough to warrant a little scrutiny...which is why I pitched a segment idea to a network TV documentary series to great interest and talked to an old friend who I've known as a colleague and a neighbor for many years...ever heard of Michael Moore ? God you have got to love investigative journalism-it helps to keep the fraudsters in check.... And I am thankful that you graciously harassed me with all of those spam e-mails because it means war-not with violence but a war where your cult will lose MONEY. Speaking of fraudster's sending checks, your cult will pay me, directly or otherwise.And it goes without saying I have reported your cult to any and all internet providers and I will enjoy making money from you. Hell, I deserve it. And by the way, L. Ron was a conman.

quote: PanImages' powerful brains were created by scanning more than 350 machine-readable online dictionaries. Some of these were "wiktionaries," online multilingual dictionaries written by volunteers. The PanImages software scans these dictionaries and uses an algorithm to check the accuracy of the results. It then assembles the results in a matrix that allows translation in combinations that may never have been attempted for instance, from Gujarati to Lithuanian.
The actual search engine is here: http://www.panimages.org/index.jsp?displang=eng
And the research paper detailing the algorithm and method is here: http://turing.cs.washington.edu/papers/EtzioniMTSummit07.pdf
An idea to use Wiktionary or interwiki links to improve image search for Commons has long been kicked around. Maybe we could collaborate with them to improve the Mayflower search engine for Commons? (Or else ask them to index upload.wikimedia.org and pay attention to license metadata :)) After all, we supplied them with all this useful data for free.
cheers, Brianna
