We report a case of Macular Telangiectasia type 2 with crystalline retinopathy in a 42 year old female complaining of gradual decrease of vision in both eyes for the past one year. Both eye fundus showed perifoveal refractile crystals with lamellar macular holes. A diagnosis of crystalline retinopathy was made. Other causes of crystals were ruled out based on history, systemic examination, multimodal imaging & laboratory work-up. Presence of dilated perifoveal deep capillary plexus, foveal cavitation & temporal leakage on FFA conrmed association with Macular Telangiectasia. To our knowledge, there is no thorough documentation of crystalline reti-nopathy reported in Indian population.

Dynamic verbs in the Wordnet of PolishThe paper presents patterns of co-occurrences of wordnet relations involving verb lexical units in plWordNet - a large wordnet of Polish. The discovered patterns reveal tendencies of selected synset and lexical relations to form regular circular structures of clear semantic meanings. They involve several types of relations, e.g., presupposition, cause, processuality and antonymy, do not have a necessary character (there are exceptions), but can be used in wordnet diagnostics and guidelines for wordnet editors. The analysis is illustrated with numerous positive and negative examples, as well as statistics for verb relations in plWordNet 4.0 emo. Some attempts to a more general, linguistic explanation of the observed phenomena are also made. As a background, plWordNet model of linguistic character is briefly recollected. A special attention is given to the verb part. In addition the description of dynamic verbs by relations and features is discussed in details including relation definitions and substitution tests. Czasowniki dynamiczne w Słowosieci - wordnecie języka polskiego W artykule zostały przedstawione wzorce współwystępowania relacji leksykalno-semantycznych obejmujących czasownikowe jednostki leksykalne w ramach Słowosieci - wielkiego relacyjnego słownika języka polskiego, wordnetu języka polskiego. Tłem obserwacji jest Słowosieć 4.0 emo, dla której omówiono skrótowo system relacji czasownikowych wraz ze statystykami. Szczególną uwagę autorzy poświęcili czasownikom dynamicznym i ich typowym relacjom, dla których przedstawiono testy substytucji z wytycznych do relacyjnego opisu czasownika, zdefiniowanych na potrzeby edycji Słowosieci przez lingwistów. Opisane w artykule wzorce współwystępowania ukazują tendencje niektórych relacji synsetów (tj. zbiorów synonimów) i jednostek leksykalnych (m.in. presupozycji, kauzacji, procesywności i antonimii) do tworzenia regularnych struktur, specyfikujących znaczenie wszystkich jednostek/synsetów, połączonych za pomocą danych relacji. Współwystępowania relacji wg wzorców nie mają charakteru obligatoryjnego, dlatego też w artykule przedstawiono zarówno pozytywne, jak i negatywne przykłady jednostek i synsetów, połączonych ze sobą za pomocą relacji współwystępujących, jak i pewne uwagi natury ogólnej, wskazujące na językowy charakter obserwowanego zjawiska. Oprócz znaczenia poznawczego, związanego ze współzależnościami, jakie zachodzą w obrębie systemu językowego, opis tych regularności ma również znaczenie praktyczne - może być wykorzystany przy diagnostyce wordnetu oraz w wytycznych dla lingwistów.

How would someone who had been brought up in a roundhouse adapt to life in a rectangular world? The experience of a servant working for a family in Malawi shows how difficult it could be. Her predicament is described in a book entitled Women’s Work in Heathen Lands, published in 1886. Jan Deregowski quotes the following extract:… In laying the table there is trouble for the girl. At home her house is round; a straight line and the right angle are unknown to her or her parents before her. Day after day therefore she will lay the cloth with the folds anything but parallel with one edge of the table. Plates, knives and forks are set down in a confusing manner, and it is only after lessons often repeated and much annoyance that she begins to see how things might be done (Laws 1886, quoted by Deregowski 1973: 180–1)… That simple story introduces a larger issue. Under what circumstances did people make the transition from a world of circular structures to one of squares and rectangles, and how were their lives affected by that process? It is surprising how much attention had been paid to structural changes among ancient buildings and how little to the political and social circumstances in which they happened. One way of approaching this topic is not only studying the advantages offered by new styles of architecture, but also asking which important features might be lost. That is too rarely considered. Many of the approaches described in Chapter 2 emphasized the possibilities offered by the change from circular to rectangular buildings. Houses could be larger and could accommodate more people; they would be easier to maintain; they could be expanded as the number of inhabitants increased and space was subdivided; in many cases rectilinear dwellings could be inhabited over longer periods than roundhouses. None of those arguments is unsatisfactory in itself, but all are incomplete because they do not take into account the motives of the people who chose to live there. Chapter 2 also showed how houses could be used to emphasize subtle distinctions among their inhabitants: differences that were based on age, gender, and social standing.
