thread_title: Proposed merge with [[Bank reserves]]

message: "China’s central bank moved late Friday to reduce lending to companies and individuals by requiring large commercial banks to increase the amount of cash they park with the central bank. The move, which came earlier than most economists had expected, was meant to slow China’s breakneck economy and inflation." - Bradsher, K. (February 12, 2010) "China’s Central Bank Hits Brake on Hot Economy" New York Times
If China increases excess reserves to slow their economy, does that mean that Paulson, Bernanke, and Geithner were all wrong about the wisdom of interest on reserves?  Why can't Sheila Bair call them on it?  Is she not pressing her $24B asset detoxification plan because she believes her party's assertions that Obama is a bad leader? 99.27.200.196 (talk) 21:49, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

Talk:John Kass

message: Here is the bio for John Kass, as it appears on the Tribune site:
"John Kass has covered a variety of topics since arriving at the Chicago Tribune in 1983.
The son of a Greek immigrant grocer, Kass was born June 23, 1956, on Chicago's South Side and grew up there and in Oak Lawn. He held a number of jobs—merchant marine sailor, ditch digger, waiter—before becoming a film student at Columbia College in Chicago. There, he worked at the student newspaper and caught the attention of Daryle Feldmeir, chairman of the journalism department and former editor of the Chicago Daily News.
Feldmeir and journalism professor Les Brownlee helped him obtain an internship at the Daily Calumet in 1980, where Kass worked as a reporter until he left for the Tribune.
In 2004, Kass was awarded the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi national award for general column writing, the Scripps Howard Foundation's National Journalism Award for commentary, the Press Club of Atlantic City's National Headliner Award for local interest column writing on a variety of subjects, and the Chicago Headline Club's Lisagor Award for best daily newspaper columnist.
In 1992, Kass won the Chicago Tribune's Beck Award for writing.
Kass lives in the western suburbs with his wife and twin sons. His column appears on Page A2 of the Chicago Tribune every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.29.207.3 (talk) 20:09, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Talk:John of Gamala

message: I beefed up the structure of this article by tying it into various other articles related to the authenticity of Christ. I did this mainly to attract the attention of people watching those pages who may be able to add something on the historical character of John of Gamala that is noticeably missing from this article. I never heard of him previously, and was wondering if he really existed or not. Hiberniantears 17:08, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The historicity of Jesus aside, is anyone able to point to historical evidence for John of Gamala? Presumably Cascioli didn't just dream him up, if he plans to take this to the EU court. Are there source documents--Josephus, for example, or rabbinical or pagan sources? Given the nature of the article, we need some basis for the claim that he is a "historical figure." A 19th-century novel is scant evidence. --Tom Allen 18:48, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

text: This entry asserts that John of Gamala is a historical figure but apparently only references a fictitious novel for this assertion.  Where is John of Gamala mentioned in ancient literature?  I'd like to see what the real sources have to say. Layman 02:10, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

message: While Dragonetti's manuscripts are presently being published one by one, the list of works in the article includes numerous clearly fictive, wrong names of composer's pieces.

Talk:Josef Terboven

message: Fastifex has proposed the following paragraph about Terboven:
:He was made Reichskommissar (Commissary) of Norway on April 24, 1940, even before the military invasion (started ) was completed on 7 June 1940, since the Nazis felt a more authoritarian approach was needed. He moved into the Norwegian crown prince's residence in Skaugum and made the Stortinget (Norwegian parliament)'s buildings his headquarters; Nazi authorities got the parliament to proclaime the end of the monarchy 25 September 1940, changing the name of the state to Norway until the pre-war Norwegian constitutional monarchy re-assumed control in 9 May 1945.
The Nazis instituted a number of pseudolegal devices to create a semblance of legitimacy around what they were doing, and kept the clearly illegal activities secret. But what is important to realize here is that the Norwegian parliament passed on all legislative and other powers to the cabinet that was initially fleeing German forces and then went into exile until the parliament could again be lawfully assembled. This did not happen until May of 1945, and any efforts the Germans did to pass laws, regulations, etc., were entirely illegal and void. The rivalry between Quisling and Terboven was more involved than Nazi authorities wanting a more authoritarian regime - it had to do with Hitler's personal comfort level with these two individuals. --Leifern 17:34, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

"Lord Peter Russell" is the style of a younger son of a duke or marquess.  Did one of the present duke's brothers marry a peeress in her own right?  (Are there currently any such of that rank?)
