  TRICOLOR SALVAGE 2004
Is the cutting wire used on the TRICOLOR the same as the one deployed to cut the bow of the submarine ‘Kursk’ in October 2001?
The exact location of the TRICOLOR is 51° 21.9" North and 02° 12.65" East, which is in the English Channel at approximately 55 nautical miles from Dover in England, and 25 miles from Zeebrugge, Belgium.
The TRICOLOR is being cut with an adapted and improved version of the wire used on the ‘Kursk’.

 Tricolored Blackbird (Agelaius tricolor)
Determination of breeding by tricolors is simplified by their colonial behavior and the conspicuousness of both sexes transporting food to nestlings and fledglings.
Tricolors may be relatively unaffected by poisoning problems because they avoid row crops, vineyards and orchards.
Tricolored Blackbirds are at as high a risk as any of the narrowly endemic North American bird species and are far greater risk than Swainson's Hawks, Burrowing Owls and other relatively widely distributed California species.

 Digimorph - Thyroptera tricolor
As the common names imply, these bats are easily recognizable by the presence of a circular sucking disk on the bases of the thumbs and soles of the feet.
Thyroptera tricolor breeds twice annually and mating is known to be polygonous.
The young are unable to fly for the first month and so after birth the mother will carry her single offspring in flight, with the baby clinging to her abdomen (Anderson and Jones 1984).

 Tricolor
On Saturday the 14th of December 2002 at around 2.30 am, the Tricolor, car-carrier built in Japan in 1987 and registered in Tronsberg (Norway), collided with the container ship Kariba and sank a few minutes after at 30 m of depth, in the Pas-de-Calais, 20 miles north-west of Dunkirk.
The Tricolor was transporting 1,990 tonnes of IFO 380 (Intermediate Fuel Oil), a product of medium viscosity (380 cSt at 50°C) shared out into 8 ballasts, 200 cubic metres of diesel oil and 25 tonnes of lubricating oil.
The contract was given to the consortium ‘Combinatie Berging Tricolor’ and firmed on April the 11th.

Tricolor Photography in PS Shawn Kearney, aug 06, 2003; 03:27 a.m.
I would like to get into tricolor printing in Photoshop, there is no process as lovely as tricolor printing in the dark room, and I think the same could be true in digital.
Rather than attempt to duplicate the process, though, you might want to examine what about the results is "as lovely as tricolor printing in the darkroom", and work on those specific elements.

 TRICOLOR SALVAGE 2004
The ‘TRICOLOR’ is a 1987 built Norwegian flagged vehicle carrier, which, in the early hours of 14 December 2002, was struck by ‘Kariba’, a 1982 built Bahamian flagged container ship in the French Exclusive Economic Zone some 20 miles north of the French coast in the English channel.
TRICOLOR sank as a result of the impact of the striking and was eventually declared a total loss.
In December 2002 French authorities ordered the TRICOLOR to be removed, as it was perceived to represent a danger to shipping and the environment.

 Tricolor: Mirth + Feckless: Pitchfork Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Tricolor makes the kind of effortless, cool-guy jazz that will be enjoyed by a select few people, and leave the masses less smitten.
At once paying tribute to the playfulness of early Coltrane and Adderley, and veering off into muted free explorations, Tricolor is of impeccable pedigree and taste.
All things combined, Tricolor definitely makes it into one of the upper echelons of jazz recordings.

 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: Ara tricolor
Cuban Macaw Ara tricolor was endemic to the Isle of Pines and mainland Cuba, and probably also Hispaniola (Haiti and the Dominican Republic).
Its extinction was caused by hunting for food and felling of nesting trees to capture young birds for pets, with the last specimen collected in 1864, and the last reports in 1885.
tricolor must have come from Hispaniola, but there is no evidence for this and so the former becomes a synonym of the latter.

 Convovulus tricolor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
In full sun with ample moisture, Convolvulus tricolor 'Royal Ensign' is a highly effective trailing/sprawling groundcover to be placed 6-9" apart at planting for a successful show.
Averaging between 12-18" in height, Convolvulus tricolor 'Royal Ensign' is best suited for the front to middle of a border where it may be allowed to creep beyond the edge and/or mingle with its neighbors.
tricolor is found as a native perennial from Portugal to Greece and N. Africa; it can be treated as a respectable annual in zone 5 (zones 8-11 can offer it a more suitable climate and can expect a perennial, perhaps short-lived, life cycle).

 rec.pets.cats: Torties, Calicos and Tricolor Cats FAQ
A true tricolor must have one of its colors derived from the red gene -- either red (orange) or cream (kind of a light, orangy beige, not unlike the color many people call "ginger").
A white cat with red or cream tabby patches is not a true tricolor either; only one of the colors may be red or cream in a true tricolor.
In this case, the cat is not a true tricolor either -- it's a seal point and white, or a blue point and white, or a chocolate point and white.

 Torties, Calicos and Tricolor Cats
There is a designation called "bicolor" where the cat has a significant portion of white fur, but the rest of the cat is either a solid color such as fl, blue, red, or a patterned color such as brown tabby, silver tabby (what many people call "tiger"), blue tabby, etc.
A white cat with patches of tiger stripe might appear to have three colors -- white, fl, and gray -- but because one of the three colors is not red or cream, it is not a true tricolor.
You must have the combination of the O and the o to create this, which means the cat must have two genes.
