License tagging for Image:CSN boxset.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:CSN boxset.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 03:04, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:DecadeofHits.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:DecadeofHits.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Postcards of the Hanging.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Postcards of the Hanging.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. (ESkog)(Talk) 03:26, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Bfretrospective.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Bfretrospective.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 01:30, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Eat-a-Peach-Inside-Cover102.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Eat-a-Peach-Inside-Cover102.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 02:43, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:SQL Server

Best disambiguation page ever :)--LucidGA 01:42, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * What qualities does it have that makes it stand out from others? Courtland 00:44, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, first off the links to MS products should be removed. Those /are/ SQL servers. That leaves the DBMS that uses an SQL query item. Psychcf (talk) 00:42, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Reasonable exception to the 1-blue-link rule
Hello,

In, you said linking to SQL is a "reasonable exception for breaking the 1-blue link rule". So, you are saying that there is a very good reason for this blue link even though it causes trouble for Dabfix tool? Alright. You've got my attention. I am listening. Blow me away.

Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 08:46, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

 * I normally don't advocate diverging from guidelines (one blue link), however I regard this as a reasonable exception since "SQL Server" is a frequently used vague term that may refer to the two blue links with equal emphasis (SQL and database server). However, if tools treat guidelines as rules, we can either pick one of these blue links or split this into two entries. + m t  21:47, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Generic entry for "SQL server"
Since one of the first edits of this disambiguation article 21 years ago there has been an entry stating that the common nouns "SQL server" may generically refer to any database server that uses SQL. There is potential confusion with what a "SQL server" is (e.g. here). Evidence that this disambiguation entry has been useful is shown here and here. With an average of 40 views per day, this entry has remained in this disambiguation article, with perhaps a few re-wordings or what term(s) are wikilinked (see previous talk section), and an odd praise in the first talk section in this page. A handful of editors have disagreed to the disambiguation style (again, previous talk section). A few editors have disagreed with the statement in some way, and would rather remove it. Why? + m t  10:09, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

 * For the record, we're talking about this statement: "SQL Server may refer to: Any database server that implements the structured query language (SQL)." First, the point of policy and exempting it:
 * The age of a statement doesn't automatically give it merit. Regardless of how old it is, it's a unsubstantiated personal opinion. That said, disambiguation pages aren't supposed to contain substantiated facts either. c.f. WP:DAB. Three editors before me have said this too. Look above for one of them.
 * 40 views per day isn't evidence of usefulness; it is a record of the number of times that readers have been mislead! If I were to mimic your sensationalism, I'd say "It is a heinous crime for which you've been responsible since 2017." I will cover them below.
 * Second, the evidence: The two external links that you've supplied outside parentheses are examples of combative users who refer to this page in combative, furtive ways to further their own point of view. To wit:
 * In your first link, an Stack Overflow question, users  and   are  arguing over what "SQL Server" means. Ironically,   is citing the content of this page to say the exact opposite of what you've been championing so far. Apparently, depending on how you look at this page, SQL Server could or could not mean "any database server that [...]"
 * Your second link, a VBForums page, is just another argument between clueless people. User  uses "Oracle SQL Server" by mistake. Another user, " " comments that "There is no 'Oracle SQL Server.'  There is an 'Oracle' database server and a 'SQL Server' database server." After that, the same scenario as Stack Overflow repeats itself.   and   cite this page and its unsubstantiated opinion piece in oblique ways to champion opposite views, not realizing that the statement over which they are fighting might have been written by nobody worth their consideration.   regards the entirety of our disambiguation page as evidence against the single unsubstantiated opinion in it.
 * Overall, the disputed statement is:
 * Unsubstantiated (c.f. WP:V and WP:RS)
 * Doesn't belong to a disambiguation page, even if strongly substaniated
 * Dangerously abused in at least two forums, Stack Overflow and VBForums
 * I am more than ever convinced that it doesn't belong here. Waysidesc (talk) 12:29, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for finally joining the discussion in this Talk page! My point for the length of time the entry was there is to show after tens of thousands of views, this is the first critique of it's existence, thus is unusual. I'm not the first editor to add the entry, and probably not the last. My usual role is to enforce MOS:DAB guidelines, or the odd exception where it makes sense. I don't want to waste any more time on this topic, so I don't have anything further to add. Consensus for a single entry on a disambiguation article is rare (I've never seen it), so I'm going to let this article stay as it is, and see where it goes. If another editor or more re-adds the entry, you might need to leave it alone too. + m t  20:17, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Battle of Bang Bo (Zhennan Pass)

The Battle of Bang Bo, known in China as the Battle of Zhennan Pass (鎮南關之役), was a major Chinese victory during the Sino-French War (August 1884 – April 1885). The battle, fought on 23 and 24 March 1885 on the Tonkin-Guangxi border, saw the defeat of 1,500 soldiers of General François de Négrier's 2nd Brigade of the Tonkin Expeditionary Corps by a Chinese army under the command of the Guangxi military commissioner Pan Dingxin (潘鼎新).

The battle set the scene for the French retreat from Lạng Sơn on 28 March and the conclusion of the Sino-French War in early April in circumstances of considerable embarrassment for France.

The Tonkin military stalemate, March 1885
On 17 February 1885 General Louis Brière de l'Isle, the general-in-chief of the Tonkin Expeditionary Corps, left Lạng Sơn with Lieutenant-Colonel Laurent Giovanninelli's 1st Brigade to relieve the Siege of Tuyên Quang. On 3 March, at the Battle of Hòa Mộc, Giovanninelli's men broke through a formidable Chinese blocking position and relieved the siege. Before his departure Brière de l'Isle ordered General François de Négrier, who remained at Lạng Sơn with the 2nd Brigade, to press on towards the Chinese border and expel the battered remnants of the Guangxi Army from Tonkinese soil. After resupplying the 2nd Brigade with food and ammunition, de Négrier defeated the Guangxi Army at the Battle of Đồng Đăng on 23 February and cleared it from Tonkinese territory. For good measure, the French crossed briefly into Guangxi province and blew up the 'Gate of China', an elaborate Chinese customs building on the Tonkin-Guangxi border. They were not strong enough to exploit this victory, however, and the 2nd Brigade returned to Lạng Sơn at the end of February.

By early March, in the wake of the French victories at Hòa Mộc and Dong Dang, the military situation in Tonkin had reached a temporary stalemate. Giovanninelli's 1st Brigade faced Tang Jingsong's Yunnan Army around Hưng Hóa and Tuyên Quang, while de Négrier's 2nd Brigade at Lạng Sơn faced Pan Dingxin's Guangxi Army. Neither Chinese army had any realistic prospect of launching an offensive for several weeks, while the two French brigades that had jointly captured Lạng Sơn in February were not strong enough to inflict a decisive defeat on either Chinese army separately. Brière de l'Isle and de Négrier examined the possibility of crossing into Guangxi with the 2nd Brigade to capture the major Chinese military depot at Longzhou, but on 17 March Brière de l'Isle advised the army ministry in Paris that such an operation was beyond their strength. Substantial French reinforcements reached Tonkin in the middle of March, giving Brière de l'Isle a brief opportunity to break the stalemate. He moved the bulk of the reinforcements to Hưng Hóa to reinforce the 1st Brigade, intending to attack the Yunnan Army and drive it back beyond Yen Bay. While he and Giovanninelli drew up plans for a western offensive, he ordered de Négrier to keep the Chinese in respect around Lạng Sơn.

Meanwhile, behind the Chinese border, the Guangxi Army was also building up its strength. The French, whose Vietnamese spies in Longzhou had been conscientiously counting the company flags of every Chinese battalion that passed through the town, estimated on 17 March that they were facing a Chinese force of 40,000 men. This was an exaggeration, based on the assumption that each Chinese company was at full strength. In fact most of the Chinese commands were considerably understrength with 300 to 400 men, and the strength of the Guangxi Army at the Battle of Zhennan Pass was probably around a couple thousand men, while all of Longzhou had 25,000 to 30,000 men under arms. Even at this lower strength, it fearfully outnumbered the French.

French and Chinese forces
By the middle of March nine separate Chinese military commands were massed close up to the Tonkinese border around the enormous entrenched camps of Yen Cua Ai and Bang Bo. There were six main Chinese concentrations. The entrenched camp of Yen Cua Ai was held by ten battalions under the command of Feng Zicai (冯子材) and a slightly smaller force under the command of Wang Xiaochi (王孝祺). These two commands numbered perhaps 7,500 men in all. 2 to 3 km behind Yen Cua Ai, around the village of Mufu, lay the commands of Su Yuanchun and Chen Jia (陳嘉), perhaps 7,000 men in all. 15 km behind Mufu the commands of Jiang Zonghan (蔣宗汉) and Fang Yusheng (方友升), also 7,000 strong, were deployed around the village of Pingxiang (known to the French from its Vietnamese pronunciation as Binh Thuong). The commander of the Guangxi Army, Pan Dingxin (潘鼎新), lay at Haicun, 30 km behind Mufu, with 3,500 men. 50 km to the west of Zhennanguan, 3,500 men under the command of Wei Gang (魏刚) were deployed around the village of Aiwa. Finally, 15 km to the east of Zhennanguan, just inside Tonkin, Wang Debang occupied the village of Cua Ai with 3,500 men.

De Négrier's 2nd Brigade numbered around 1,500 men. The brigade's order of battle in March 1885 was as follows:
 * 3rd Marching Regiment (Lieutenant-Colonel Herbinger)
 * 23rd Line Infantry Battalion (Lieutenant-Colonel Godart)
 * 111th Line Infantry Battalion (chef de bataillon Faure)
 * 143rd Line Infantry Battalion (chef de bataillon Farret)
 * 4th Marching Regiment (Lieutenant-Colonel Donnier)
 * 2nd Foreign Legion Battalion (chef de bataillon Diguet)
 * 3rd Foreign Legion Battalion (Lieutenant-Colonel Schoeffer)
 * 2nd African Light Infantry Battalion (chef de bataillon Servière)
 * 1st Battalion, 1st Tonkinese Rifle Regiment (chef de bataillon Jorna de Lacale)
 * 3 artillery batteries (Captains Roperh, de Saxcé and Martin).

Roussel's battery, of Giovanninelli's 1st Brigade, was also at Lạng Sơn. The battery had lagged behind during the Lạng Sơn Campaign, and Giovanninelli had left it at Lạng Sơn when he set out with the 1st Brigade to relieve Tuyên Quang.

Not all of the 2nd Brigade was stationed at Lạng Sơn and immediately available for action. The four companies of Servière's 2nd African Battalion were echeloned between Lạng Sơn and Chu, guarding the vital French supply line up to Lạng Sơn and labouring to improve the miserable paths over which the expeditionary corps had advanced in February into a surfaced wagon road.

The battle of Bang Bo, 23 and 24 March 1885
On 22 March, Chinese forces under the command of Feng Zicai（冯子材） raided the French forward post at Dong Dang, a few kilometres north of Lạng Sơn. The French post, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Paul-Gustave Herbinger, was held by chef de battalion Diguet's 2nd Foreign Legion Battalion, and the legionnaires repelled the Chinese assault without difficulty. De Négrier, who had been forced to bring the bulk of the 2nd Brigade up from Lạng Sơn to support Herbinger, decided to hit back immediately. Hoping to take the Chinese by surprise, he decided to cross the frontier and attack the Guangxi Army in its entrenchments at Bang Bo, near the frontier pass of Zhennanguan. He had no intention of launching a major offensive into Guangxi. His aim, in the military phrase of the day, was simply to 'take some air' (se donner de l'air) around Dong Dang. After giving the Chinese a bloody nose at Bang Bo and clearing them away from the approaches to Dong Dang, he would return to Lạng Sơn with the 2nd Brigade.

Leaving chef de bataillon Servière to hold Lạng Sơn with a single company of the 2nd African Battalion and Martin and Roussel's batteries, and stationing the 23rd Line Battalion at Dong Dang to protect his supply line, he advanced to the Chinese frontier at Zhennanguan on the morning of 23 March with a force of only 1,600 men and 10 guns (the 111th and 143rd Line Battalions, the 2nd and 3rd Legion Battalions and Roperh and de Saxcé's batteries). Substantial reinforcements for the 2nd Brigade were already on their way up to Lạng Sơn, but de Négrier decided not to wait for them. He judged it more important to attack the Chinese while they were still discouraged by Feng Zicai's repulse on 22 March.

On 23 and 24 March the 2nd Brigade fought a fierce action with the Guangxi Army near Zhennanguan. This engagement, known as the Battle of Zhennan Pass in China, is normally called Bang Bo in European sources, after the name of a village in the centre of the Chinese position where the fighting was fiercest. The French took a number of outworks on 23 March, and defeated a hesitant Chinese counterattack against their right flank launched by Wang Debang from Cua Ai.

On 24 March de Négrier attacked the Guangxi Army's main positions around Bang Bo. His plan called for a simultaneous frontal and rear attack on Feng Zicai's troops, who were holding a line of trenches in front of Bang Bo known to the French as the 'Long Trench'. The frontal attack would be delivered by Faure's 111th Battalion and the rear attack by Diguet's 2nd Legion Battalion and Farret's 143rd Battalion. Herbinger, who was instructed to guide Diguet and Farret to their attack positions, led the two battalions in a wide outflanking march in thick fog, and lost his way. De Négrier, unaware that Herbinger had failed to reach his positions, and mistaking a column of Chinese troops moving up to the Long Trench for Herbinger's two battalions, ordered chef de bataillon Faure's 111th Battalion to deliver its planned frontal attack.

The men of the 111th laid down their haversacks, formed up, and charged. The battalion came under heavy frontal fire from Feng Zicai's infantry and flanking fire from Chinese units on the nearby hills, and lost several company officers within seconds. Two of the four companies of the 111th Battalion reached the trench, but after a short spell of hand-to-hand fighting were thrown back by a Chinese counterattack led personally by Feng Zicai.

The senior surviving French company officer, Captain Verdier (who later wrote a detailed account of the campaign, La vérité sur la retraite de Lang-Son, under the pseudonym Jacques Harmant), was able to disengage and rally the battalion. The Chinese, intent on beheading the French wounded and plundering the abandoned French haversacks, did not seriously pursue the 111th Battalion, and Verdier was able to withdraw its shredded companies to safety.

Among the officers who fell during the 111th Battalion's attack on the Long Trench was 2nd Lieutenant Rene Normand, shot in the throat and mortally wounded. Normand had only recently arrived in Tonkin, and had distinguished himself on 10 February 1885 at the engagement at Pho Vy during the Lạng Sơn Campaign. A collection of his letters from Tonkin, including a number of vivid descriptions of the February campaign to capture Lạng Sơn, would be published posthumously in France in 1886.

On the right of the battlefield, the 143rd Battalion and 2nd Legion Battalion went into action several hours later than expected, and captured a Chinese fort. It was the only French success of the day. At 3:00 pm Pan Dingxin, seeing the 111th Battalion in full retreat and Herbinger's men exhausted from their exertions, counterattacked along the entire front. Herbinger's command was nearly cut off. Captain Gayon's company of the 143rd Battalion was surrounded by the Chinese. Captain Patrick Cotter, an Irish officer in Diguet's Legion battalion, ignored an order from Herbinger to leave Gayon to his fate and led his Legion company to the rescue. The legionnaires charged and successfully disengaged Gayon's men, but Cotter was killed in the attack. Diguet and Farret's battalions fell back by echelons, constantly turning and firing to keep the Chinese in respect.

Meanwhile, Schoeffer's 3rd Legion Battalion, which had been ordered to remain on Tonkinese soil around Dong Dang to protect the flanks of the French column, fought desperately to keep open a line of retreat for the 2nd Brigade. Schoeffer's men beat off strong Chinese attacks on both French flanks, enabling the other three infantry battalions and the two artillery batteries to make good their retreat. General de Négrier fought with the French rearguard, setting an example of personal courage, and the Chinese were unable to convert the French retreat into a rout. In the final flurry of action, just before nightfall, Captain Brunet of Schoeffer's battalion was shot dead.

There were ominous scenes of disorder as the defeated French regrouped after the battle, and de Négrier had to intervene sharply to quell them. As the brigade's morale was precarious and ammunition was running short, de Négrier decided to fall back to Lạng Sơn. On the evening of 24 March the brigade marched back to Dong Dang, where it camped for the night. Hungry, exhausted, and shocked by their defeat, many French troops found it difficult to credit what had happened. Sergeant Maury of Diguet's 2nd Legion Battalion was overcome by a nervous reaction: The night was very dark. The soldiers marched in complete silence. We felt cheated, ashamed, and angry. We were leaving behind us both victory and many of our friends. From time to time, in low murmurs, we established who was missing. Then we relapsed into the silence of mourning and the bitterness of loss. And so we reached Dong Dang, without being disturbed. We slept in the field hospital huts, after drinking some soup. We were harassed and hungry. We had not eaten all day, and had drunk nothing since morning except a single cup of coffee. In spite of my weariness, I spent a troubled night. My spirits were haunted by the day's memories, by images of the fighting and phantasms of our misfortunes. I was shaken with spasms. I trembled as I have never done on the battlefield. I lay down, but was unable to sleep.

Casualties
Although the French made a fighting withdrawal from the battlefield and prevented the Chinese from piercing their line, casualties in the 2nd Brigade during the two-day battle were relatively heavy: 74 killed (including 7 officers) and 213 wounded (including 6 officers). Most of these casualties (70 killed and 188 wounded) were suffered on 24 March. The heaviest casualties were suffered by the 111th Battalion (31 killed and 58 wounded) and the 2nd Legion Battalion (12 killed and 68 wounded). There were also appreciable casualties in the 143rd Battalion (17 killed and 48 wounded) and the 3rd Legion Battalion (12 killed and 34 wounded).

The dead and mortally wounded officers included Captain Mailhat, Doctor Raynaud, Lieutenant Canin and 2nd Lieutenant Normand of the 111th Battalion, Lieutenant Thébaut of the 143rd Battalion, Captain Cotter of Diguet's Legion battalion and Captain Brunet of Schoeffer's Legion battalion. The wounded officers included chef de bataillon Tonnot of the Tonkinese Rifles, Lieutenant de Colomb of the 111th Battalion, Lieutenant Mangin and 2nd Lieutenant Bruneau of the 143rd Battalion and Lieutenant Durillon and 2nd Lieutenant Comignan of Diguet's battalion. Lieutenant Mangin died several days after the battle in Lạng Sơn, from shock following an operation to amputate a wounded limb.

Significance
The French defeat at Bang Bo on 24 March 1885 shook the nerve of several French politicians who had earlier supported France's war against the Qing Dynasty. More importantly, it convinced Lieutenant-Colonel Paul-Gustave Herbinger, de Négrier's second-in-command, that the 2nd Brigade was dangerously isolated at Lạng Sơn. On 28 March de Négrier was seriously wounded in the battle of Kỳ Lừa, in which the Tonkin Expeditionary Corps defeated an attack by the Guangxi Army on the defences of Lạng Sơn. Herbinger assumed command of the 2nd Brigade, and immediately ordered a retreat to Kép and Chu. The battle of Bang Bo therefore paved the way for the Retreat from Lạng Sơn and the collapse of Jules Ferry's administration on 30 March in the Tonkin Affair. The battle, before the war ended due to negotiations, made the Qing Dynasty seem to be almost victorious in the entire war in light of the French defeats at Zhennan and Langson.

Film portrayal
The story of Feng Zicai and the victory of the Chinese troops was made into the 2017 film The War of Loong.

Talk:Valeris

Untitled

 * When the script for Star Trek VI was first written, the traitor was to have been Saavik, a character introduced in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry requested a new character be created instead, as Saavik had become a beloved part of the Star Trek universe.

I remember reading in Leonard Nimoy's book I Am Spock that he originally wanted Kirstie Alley to reprise the role of Saavik, but that she declined, and that was the reason for the creation of the new character Valeris.

Who the hell is Valeris?
I distinctly remember the actress in Star Trek VI being addressed as Saavik by the other members of the crew, even though she wasn't played by Kirstie Alley. Was Valeris her first name?

 * Your recollection is incorrect; she is never referred to as Saavik. You're probably thinking of behind-the-scenes material about the writers' initial idea of using the Saavik character -- which they ultimately decided against. --EEMIV (talk) 11:41, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Matchbox (drinking game)

Matchbox is a drinking game of skill played around a table. It can be played by any number of people. The aim is to throw a matchbox such that it lands on its edge or end. It was invented by Liam Peoples of Essex.

Main Laws
A "finger" is the amount of beer, in a straight or "conical" pint glass, covered by one finger on the outside of the glass.

Play proceeds around a circle. The player whose turn it is takes the matchbox and throws it. What happens next depends on how the box lands:

 * 1) End : If the matchbox lands on its end (smallest face) then four fingers are "added" to a penalty pot. Play then continues round the circle.
 * 2) Edge : If the box lands on an edge (middle-sized face; usually the one with striking paper) then it accumulates two fingers in the penalty pot. Play continues.
 * 3) Side : If the matchbox lands on its side (the largest face) then the thrower must drink the total number of fingers accumulated in penalty pot so far. Once this has taken place the pot reverts to zero fingers and play continues. If the pot contains no fingers then play simply continues without penalty.

The matchbox may be labelled as a reminder of the numbers. Also an 'R' on one end and one edge may be used to signify that the direction of play should be reversed (if play it was moving anti-clockwise, passing to the right, the box now moves to the left).

Variations
As with many drinking games extra or different rules may be used by specific groups. Some are:
 * Accidentally flicking a matchbox into a drink incurs an immediate penalty of drinking all the drink that the matchbox has entered for the thrower.
 * The matchbox not landing on the table incurs a penalty of finishing their drink plus any accrued finger fines for the thrower.
 * Spilling matches from the box is punishable by a fine (a finger or a sip per match).
 * If someone throws the matchbox up high so that it hits the ceiling and then lands on its top end, everyone must finish off their current drink; land it on the edge, everyone must drink half of their current drink.
 * Continental Box - A round in which the technique for throwing the matchbox must be unusual - using props, additional appendages and manipulation of the box is allowed. Normal throwing rules resume when the box has done a full revolution around the playing group.
 * "Mr Chairman" - in games with experienced players, when a multitude of additional rules are used to keep players on their toes (and drinking!) a player is elected as being in charge of the game. "Mr Chairman" runs the game, apportions fines, and generally keeps order. As simple and beneficial as this may sound, responsibility for a successful and enjoyable game rests with Mr Chairman... "with great power comes great responsibility"

Generalized Newtonian fluid

A generalized Newtonian fluid is an idealized fluid for which the shear stress is a function of shear rate at the particular time, but not dependent upon the history of deformation. Although this type of fluid is non-Newtonian (i.e. non-linear) in nature, its constitutive equation is a generalised form of the Newtonian fluid. Generalised Newtonian fluids satisfy the following rheological equation:

 * $$\tau = \mu_{\operatorname{eff}}( \dot{\gamma} ) \dot{\gamma} $$

where $$\tau$$ is the shear stress, and $$\dot{\gamma}$$ the shear rate. The quantity $$\mu_{\operatorname{eff}}$$ represents an apparent or effective viscosity as a function of the shear rate.

The most commonly used types of generalized Newtonian fluids are:
 * Power-law fluid
 * Cross fluid
 * Carreau fluid
 * Bingham fluid

It has been shown that Lubrication theory may be applied to all Generalized Newtonian fluids in both two and three dimensions.
