Tarrana

"Tar - anna" (n.) - also spelled Torana

An annoying, incorrect pronounciation and spelling of the capital of Ontario, Toronto (The most populous city in Canada, and 5th most populous city in North America).

Most commonly used by the 18-25 year old demographic, typically the 'slang' is used on popular social networking sites such as Facebook, Myspace & Twitter.

It is a deliberate spelling/pronouciation error which inaccurately describes any Canadian accent but rather a New Jersey or Southern States dialect.

Ex.1

Facebook update:

Hipster says "Taranna with the ladies tonight!"

Ex.2

Hipster says: "So where abouts in Tarrana are you from?"

Stranger says: "I'm not from Tarrana... not sure where that is actually".

Hipster says: "How can you not know where Tarrana is!"

Stranger says" "Oh, you must be one of those Hipster kids... it's Toronto, and I'm from Bay/Bloor area."

Tarrance

Richard Tarrance is recognized as the "Father of Modern Day Tele-Radiology and Medical Imaging". His work in the early 1990's using Microsoft Windows as the back-bone of his developments in Radiological Imaging set the standards and conformity of what is now known as DICOM - "Digital Imaging and Communications" and PACS - "Picture Archiving and Communications". At the 1992 Worldwide SCAR symposium - "Society for Computer Assisted Radiography", his innovations showed Radiologists and Physicists from around the world the standard that needed to be followed by all manufacturers of medical imaging software and hardware. The results brought hospitals and other medical institutions into conformity with each other, no matter what systems were used to archive and view patient diagnostic images. His efforts in 1992 made it possible for hospitals to save millions of dollars in film printing costs while allowing all patient images to be archived and networked on standarized PC Intranet and Internet file servers. Today, lives are saved by allowing any film to be diagnosed in a matter of minutes over the Internet from anywhere in the world.

Accident victim is rushed to an Emergency Room at 3:00 A.M. CT images show a possible brain injury and the Radiologist is awakened at 3:15 to read the images from his home PC, via the Internet. At 3:20 he phones in his diagnosis and surgery begins. Life saved by cutting reading time from 2 hrs to 20 mins. At the same time, any specialists in the world could view the film within the same time frame as a result of Microsoft Windows becoming the standard in medical imaging. Thank you, Mr. Tarrance.

Mr. Tarkanian

A character played by Will Ferrel on Saturday Night Live. To sum it all up, Mr. Tarkanian is the worst boss you could ever have.

"Excuse me, Mr Tarkanian?"

"Why are you interrupting me?"

"I thought..."

"YOU THOUGHT?!?!? WHEN I AM WITH AN IMPORTANT CLIENT, YOU DO NOT INTERRUPT ME!!! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!?!?!"

"Yes, Mr. Tarkanian." *bursts into tears*

Torrancia

Torrancia is a South Bay city located about 20 miles away from Los Angeles. Otherwise known as Torrance, this city is the natural habitat for a small group of friends called the Torrancians. Torrancia is also the home of Del Amo Fashion Center as well as Gable Bowling Alley, one of the top rated bowling alleys in the nation. Also, Torrancia is home to great dining establishments such as Yellow Basket, Steve's Burger and Christine's Restaurant. But more importantly, Torrancia is home to the Torrancians and that's the most important aspect of this fair city.

Torrancia is the modern day Utopia.
