  RED DWARF OMNIBUS Grant Naylor P
'Red Dwarf' is a British sci-fi sitcom that saw its eighth series in 1999 - which is especially impressive considering the perhaps marginal appeal of an SF comedy.
Despite this, 'Red Dwarf' has proven wildly popular over the years, and in its heyday there were a number of spin-offs - a U.S. remake and a movie were two such that never made it.
The 'Red Dwarf Omnibus' includes 'Red Dwarf' and 'Better Than Life' in one volume, and for the purposes of this review, these will be considered lesser parts of one book - and given the cliffhanger at the end of 'Red Dwarf', this is hardly unfair.

 The Red and the Green of It - Thoughts on the Grant Tartan   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The present "Red Grant" tartan was set at least as early as 1819.
Since tartan is in `'color blocks" as defined in the "Red Grant" by the azure stripe, for example, the original 1819 sett has almost twice as many threads within the azure square as the red beyond it - i.e.
The 1860's sett is almost the reverse, with more red than green it appears to be "squarer" in design - especially since the four blue stripes in the center are of equal width.

 (RED)
Global Fund grants supported with (RED) funds) represent the best performing programs within the Global Fund's extensive portfolio of AIDS grants in Africa, thus ensuring that every dollar raised is effectively and immediately translated into lives saved, and that every life thus saved is accounted for.
Funds raised by (RED) partners are contributed directly to the Global Fund, which then transfers those funds to (RED) grants in line with the achievement of their respective performance targets.
As in the case of the Global Fund's suspension of grants to Uganda in 2005 and Ukraine in 2004, any indication of misuse of funds leads to rapid corrective steps - decisive action was taken to replace the grant recipient, guarantee the recovery of funds and ensure the continuation of critical services.

 Hinomaru Red   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
When an aircraft was first painted, the hinomaru was a bright red (reddish-orange); after exposure to the elements, this color faded to a darker red (a kind of red brown.) Thus, while there may be a correct color for a brand new aircraft, once that aircraft became operational, a range of colors would be possible.
Regarding red fading with age: I don't believe that red would turn darker with age; rather, it would fade to a lighter red tone.
David Aiken also once pointed out that the red primer was RED and speculated that the hinos may have been masked and the camo painted around the masked primer.
