Talk:James Harlan (Iowa politician)

message: When James Harlan from Parke County came there with his worldly effects done up in a beggarly bundle no one seemed willing to trust him for his board, so he went to the president and offered to do janitor work in the college for the use of a vacant room in the building. The room was granted him and he managed to live there and board himself, and in the end was one of those who have honored old Asbury. When he graduated he had not even a coat to don, and in lieu thereof wore a calico dressing gown supplemented by a pair of old slippers on his feet. About that time the Iowa University was established, and soon after a committee from that State came to Asbury in search of a good man for their president. Harlan was recommended to them; he was sent for, and within thirty days after his graduation in the dressing-gown he was installed as the new president of the new college. He became a prominent citizen of his adopted State. In the winter of '45-'46 the Iowa legislature established a Department of Public Instruction, and Harlan, although he was a Whig and the legislature was Democratic, was chosen as superintendent. Subsequently he was honored with other offices, among them that of the U. S. senatorship. He was Secretary of the Interior in President Lincoln's cabinet, and also judge in the Court of Claims. James Harlan was a cousin of Judge Harlan, of the Supreme Court Bench. He was the best debater, the best logician and the best judge of men I ever knew. He never wrote his speeches, but filled himself full of his subject and out of that fulness spoke with eloquence and spontaneity. http://webapp1.dlib.indiana.edu/imh/view.do?docId=VAA4025-001-1-a04&query=author:"George%20S.%20Cottman"  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.174.132.204 (talk) 18:11, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Seaton Delaval

message: I stumbled across this page because as part of my job I needed to find out where Seaton Delaval actually is.  You'd think that would be fairly basic information for an encyclopedia, but it's hardly prominent here... scrolling down a few pages there are some references to Northumberland, but it's a bit cryptic...
The basic problem here is that this article isn't encyclopedic at all!  It's little more than just a big copy-and-paste exercise from other websites such as seatondelaval.org.
I propose to radically edit this, more along the lines of say the Alnwick article.  That means that probably 90% of the current text will go.  Is that OK?

Talk:John Forrest Dillon

message: The Dillon Rule is a legal doctrine that describes the legal legitimacy of local government in a majority of US states. While the Rule certainly can be referenced here, this article is a biographical one, not a jurisprudential one. This argument is buttressed by how the contrasting land use doctrine - the Cooley Doctrine/Home Rule - does have its own article, despite it being applicable to only a minority of US states.
In the event that contributors decline this topic's proposal, at an absolute minimum, there should be a redirect to this article when a user searches "Dillon Rule". Currently, there is no such redirect.

Talk:Flag of Iowa

message: For some reason Iowa, like all other US state flag pages, has overall proportions listed for the state flag despite most US state flags not having specified proportions. Nothing in Iowa code specifies the overall proportions of the flag. Is there a reason the proportions listed as 2:3 despite numerous examples of flags that fall outside of these proportions?
It's also mentioned via those Whitney Smith symbols that the reverse of the flag is a mirror image of its obverse. While that may be the most common depiction of the flag in modern dyed-through designs, this is again not specified in state code, and there are several real examples to the contrary.
tl;dr: The claims that the overall proportions of the flag are 2:3, as well as that the obverse and reverse of the flag are mirror images are inaccurate and should be removed. Lumpen124 (talk) 15:42, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

message: Why is the cigarette silk flag even mentioned? Cigarette silks are notorious for inventing flags due to ignorance or simply wanting to depict areas that lack flags. There are more examples of "Iowan flags" depicted on these silks that don't get mentioned. Even if you state clearly that the flag was fictitious in the footer, I believe the inclusion is harmful; A: because people image searching "Iowa flag" will have this image pop up with no mention of it being invented, and B: it breaks the flow of the article with unnecessary information.

Talk:Julien Dubuque

message: Being a fiddler of Old Time music there is a fiddle tune played across the country and it's called Dubuque. I have played it many times in many circles with many people. It is known as a Missouri Fiddle Tune. I later found out why and this is the story that is told. Back in 1800 there was a big To-Do being held in St. Louis, Missouri for dignitaries and people who were exploring the western borders of our country. Julien Dubuque attended that meeting. It was said that after the important meeting had adjourned it was time for a big meal. Afterwards drink began to flow and various guests entertained. It's said that Julien Dubuque was a pretty good fiddler so he got up to entertain. While he played his fiddle, he danced as well and impressed many. He impressed another fiddler so much that the fiddler created the instrumental, Dubuque. And it is still played all over the Country and in some European circles today. 
I'm sorry but I do not have any sources to cite on this. But it most certainly is a part of American Folklore.

Talk:CSU/DSU

message: I am used to calling CSU/DSU unit DTU(Data Termination Unit) mainly because most of the other people I work with call it the same. The initials are not however common in the literature. Is there anybody who can explain the origin of DTU and if its accurate to use it on CSU/DSU? See google search for the said item 
This would cause confusion.  A DTU - Data Terminal Unit, sounds to much like Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) which is the terminal (ie. PC or dump terminal box) at the end of a communiction link.  Notice the DTR (Data Terminal Ready) LED on modems.  A DTE connects to a DCE (Data Computer Equipment).  The link may or may not utilize DSU/CSUs.
----
The section:
"It converts a digital data frame from a local area network (LAN) into a frame appropriate to a wide-area network (WAN) and vice versa."
This section is poorly worded.  A CSU/DSU doesn't converts frames arriving on the WAN link.  It accepts data from the network (telco) interface and provides one or more synchronous serial interfaces.  CSU/DSU's never do frame delination.  Those interfaces can then be connected to a router which does level two processing of protocols.  The router can then route packets from the local network.

message: When Mac realizes Carpathia has been killed, he calls Tel Aviv tower to see if someone will shuttle the Phoenix 216 to Jerusalem. At no point is this pointed out as wrong.

Rayford had told Chloe, when he was taking Secretary General Carpathia to Israel for the treaty signing that Jerusalem was too small.
So, it is odd that suddenly the Phoenix 216 can travel to Jerusalem to retrieve Carpathia's body, Fortunato and the others who are heading back to New Babylon.
