Knot complement In mathematics, the knot complement of a tame knot "K" is the three-dimensional space surrounding the knot. To make this precise, suppose that "K" is a knot in a three-manifold "M" (most often, "M" is the 3-sphere). Let "N" be a tubular neighborhood of "K"; so "N" is a solid torus. The knot complement is then the complement of "N",

Knott's Bear-y Tale Knott's Bear-y Tales was a dark ride located at Knott's Berry Farm that opened in 1975 as part of the Roaring 20s area. The attraction was designed by Disney Imagineer Rolly Crump as part of creating a ride that would compliment the former area of the park known as Gypsy Camp. However, the dwindling Gypsy Camp would end up becoming a new section called the Roaring 20s (now known as The Boardwalk). As a result, the design of Bear-y Tales was altered two times until it ended up reflecting the theme of the Roaring 20s area. During construction, the building was caught on fire and a couple of scenes that were under development were destroyed. However, the attraction was given an extended deadline to allow more time and reconstruction of the damaged parts of the ride. In the fall of 1986, Knott's Bear-y Tales was closed to become Kingdom of the Dinosaurs due to the then upcoming trend of Dinosaurs. Following the closure, Many of the animatronics and set pieces were obtained by employees, while others stayed within Knott's to become a part of a walk-through experience in 1987 located at the Camp Snoopy area. That attraction also closed and was removed in 1997.

They resemble small humans and wear pointy red hats. Due to the popularization of fantasy literature, they are now differentiated from both gnomes (Polish: "gnom") and dwarfs (Polish: "krasnolud"), both of which are used in fantasy literature context, while the word "krasnoludek" still remains mostly the domain of older folk tales. The word "krasnal ogrodowy" is also used to describe garden dwarfs / gnomes.
