Refimprove date January 2009 Potato cake may refer to different preparations of potato es. Image Irwins potato cakes modified.jpg thumb right 250px Two Irwins Potato Cakes File Hashbrown potato patty.jpg thumb U.S. hash brown potato scallop In the U.S., the term commonly refers to a patty of hashed potatoes, a kind of hash brown . These are available pre made and frozen in supermarkets and are served by many restaurants. In the southern U.S., the term often refers to potato pancakes. The term potato cake in the United Kingdom , however, refers to a savoury cake which is typically eaten raw i.e. it refers to a food item that is quite different to a hash brown . In Australia deep fried potato cakes are commonly sold in fish and chip shops and takeaway food shops. In New South Wales, they are usually referred to as scallops or potato scallops , however the term potato cakes is used across the Southern states of Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia. The Potato Cake is also known as a Potato Scollop on Western Australia, and as a Potato Fritter in Queensland. Potato scallops originate from northern England and are common in fish and chip shops there. This variant is normally a thick slice of potato, dipped in batter and fried, with no additional flavouring added except salt. Hash browns , which are also widely available, are distinctly different. In New Zealand and Scotland, what are known as potato cakes in Australia are known as potato fritters and are of the same type as the English variant. They are very common in fish and chips fish and chip shops and are often the cheapest item on the menu.

This the building toy the author Rodnay Zaks Image WallEinZaks.jpg thumb A cartoon character built entirely with Zaks triangles and squares. Refimprove date May 2008 Zaks are a building toy originally produced by the company Ohio Art . They consist primarily of equilateral triangles and Square geometry squares with toothed, hinged, and interlocking edges. The basic triangle and square shapes are further modified by having a number of different face styles, including holes or extended sockets that allow them to connect face to face. The toys can be attached to one another to build three dimensional creations, with the edges either remaining rigid or being allowed to swivel. It is quite easy to create Platonic solids using Zaks, and the toys are useful to demonstrate how simple planes like triangles and squares can be used to create complex polyhedra . Since the pieces primarily connect with hinges, building a rigid structure takes some work, either by clever geometry or socketing together smaller polyhedra. Zaks Ziegler s Animated Konstruction System , was invented by Calgary designer Jim Ziegler. After building a virtually complete product that required 75,000 of his own money, Ziegler approached the product manager at Irwin Toy Limited, Dave Irwin, with his concept. Dave called on his brother George Irwin, and the two Irwins decided to give the toy a shot. Irwin Toy Limited was launching an important new profit center during the mid 1980s product development, and in 1985 Irwin developed and started marketing Zaks. Zaks was a hit during its first Christmas season, and Irwin was able to quickly sell licenses to companies in the United States and Australia. ref http www.fundinguniverse.com company histories Irwin Toy Limited Company History.html ref Zaks were manufactured through the late 1980s and early 1990s, but production is now discontinued. They found some success, and can still be found for sale used. References Reflist Category Art and craft toys Category Cons ... more details

The remains of Burleigh Castle are located just outside the village of Milnathort , 1.5 miles north of Kinross , in Perth and Kinross , Scotland . The castle dates from the 15th and 16th centuries, and now sits beside the A911 road, opposite a 19th century steading, recently adapted into housing. History The lands of Burleigh were held by the Balfours from 1446, when they were granted by James II of Scotland James II to John Balfour of Balgarvie , and a tower house was erected in the late 15th or early 16th century. Sir James Balfour of Pittendreich extended the castle in the late 16th century, adding a curtain wall with a corner tower, and other outbuildings. In 1607 his son Sir Michael Balfour was raised to the peerage as Lord Balfour of Burleigh . Legend tells how Robert Balfour, 5th Lord Balfour of Burleigh Robert Balfour , before his accession as 5th Lord, narrowly escaped death when, in 1707, he was sentenced to beheading for the murder of the schoolmaster of Inverkeithing , who had the misfortune to have married Balfour s childhood sweetheart. Escaping from Edinburgh tolbooth, Balfour joined the Jacobitism Jacobite cause, proclaiming the Old Pretender James Francis Edward Stuart James Stuart king at Lochmaben , and fighting in the Jacobite Risings The Rebellion Rising of 1715 The Fifteen 1715 rising . Following the defeat of the Jacobites, Balfour was attainted, dying in France in 1757. The castle was forfeit to the Irwins, then passed to the Grahams of Kinross.
