A swear-word invented for use in the TV series Farscape. Its meaning is unspecified, but it is generally invoked in phrases such as "what in the yotz are you doing?".
The word-structure is presumably meant to be alien, but closely resembles words originating from eastern European Jewish languages/dialects (e.g. putz).

Why the yotz didn't you tell me about the frelling intruders on the bridge?
What the yotz do you think I'm going to do with this?

A desert region of the realm of Vassagonia in the world of Magnamund (Lone Wolf). Largely unpopulated, although there are some small villages and nomad caravans involved in trading across the Dry Main.
So-called because of the almost total lack of rainfall. Survival in the Dry Main depends on the ability to locate oases.
The sand in the Dry Main are "vermilion", whatever that means.

1) A generic term for the realms in the far south of Middle Earth, roughly corresponding to Africa in relation to Europe. Harad is of unknown size, was not mapped by JRR Tolkien and features little in the books. The only location mentioned is Umbar, a city in northwestern Harad from which pirates known as Corsairs attack the coasts of Gondor; in the book Unfinished Tales, Tolkien hints that Istari (wizards) other than the famous five resided in Harad, including a Wizard by the name of Tu. The Haradrim (people of Harad) fought with Sauron in the War of the Ring, although it is unclear whether they were tricked; also known as Southrons (although in some renditions, such as the PC version of the War in Middle Earth game, Haradrim and Southrons are separate people). In the third Lord of the Rings film, the Haradrim appear at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields heavily armoured, in vaguely Middle Eastern-looking costumes. In battle, the Haradrim are best-known for their use of Mumakil or Oliphaunts, which are elephants or elephant-like monsters native to Harad.
A search on Google Images reveals that many Tolkien fans and RPG players have drawn maps of Harad, but that these never correspond to one another, with the result that innumerable versions of Harad now exist, each with its own specifications of kingdoms, peoples etc. There are two Harad extension packs for the official (non-computer) Tolkien RPG, although they are only available second-hand.
The name "Harad" is an Elvish word for "south". The area is also known as the Haradwaith ("South-folk").
2) an actual region of Sweden. (I found this out while searching Google Images for Harad).

The hosts of Harad rode forth to battle against the beleaguered forces of Gondor, foully hewing their way into the Gondorian ranks. (not a quote; this is me imitating Tolkien-speak).

The well-documented process by which the Right in America, who control of much of the American Media (see Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, Liberal Media)hypocritically attack a liberal (see Bill Clinton) for something that would go unnoticed if a conservative had done it, all the while downplaying any piece of news that is unfavorable to their agenda.
Bill clinton is an immoral liar. "But I didn't inhale." Puh-leese!
