message: Attn: Administration and Teachers of Cheyenne Mountain High School
My daughter is a sophomore at CMHS. She has homework every night from six of seven classes. Last night she worked until midnight and woke up today at 5am to try and finish everything. She is absolutely exhausted. I’m very OK with her being pushed to do better, but this is extreme to say the least. Please consider this and discuss it. She’s not working on her Masters thesis is college, she’s in the 10th grade. Let our kids be kids and give them the time they need after school to decompress. Her stress level two weeks into school is causing her migraines. Today, I kept her home to rest. That shouldn’t ever happen.
Thank you and please consider my request!!) 2601:281:CD00:1BD0:8D86:FE6B:77EA:C5A (talk) 14:13, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: IUCN3.1 conservation status

message: The Cherokee legend of how the owl got it spots is off-topic. This legend most likely does not refer to the Northern Spotted Owl. For one thing, the legend describes black spots, while the spotted owl has white spots. Also, the Cherokee did not live in the same place as spotted owls. The Cherokee lived in the eastern United States, while the spotted owl lives on the west coast of the United States. Thus, the Cherokee legend would be about a different owl (perhaps the barred owl or barn owl).  Inhtmf (talk) 19:12, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Women's Field Hockey

message: I removed the old content beacause it did not make sense: Women's Field Hockey is a fast-moving footbag sport incorporating elements of soccer, field hockey, and ultimate Frisbee created by Joey Beachum and Robert Scribner in 2003. The game is similar to each of the root sports mentioned but has a unique look and feel; as a result, the sport has gained popularity in the state of Mississippi and is poised to spread throughout the South and onwards. Felix Portier 6:59 Thurday 28 December 2006 (UTC)
:The previous text was plainly vandalism.  however, there is currently no need for this article to be anything other than a redirect to the main Field hockey article (as we have discussed before).  If you have references for the information you put in this article, add it to the main article in a summary form, and a more detailed version of it in History of field hockey.  If at some stage it becomes necessary to split out information on the women's game (although since rules, governing bodies etc are now identical, it is of more historic than current value) the article should in any case be at Women's field hockey per the manual of style, not here.

Talk:Palouse

message: Page currently says: "French trappers and explorers gave the region its present name, calling it Le Pelouse (roughly, "the grassland")."
But this seems to contradict the page Palus (tribe), which traces the word to the name of the Palus tribe. I suppose the tribe's name could be a French term roughly meaning "grassland", but a quick google seems to suggest not. The page http://www.palousescenicbyway.com/default.asp?PageID=51 says "Palus" means "something sticking down into the water" in Sahaptin. This page http://www.appaloosamuseum.org/cms/default.asp?contentID=521 says likewise.
So I'm removing the French origin claim and adding some See also links. Pfly 08:15, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think rather the claim is that the term Palouse is from Palus, rather than the other way around; see my comments on Talk:Palus (tribe), which hopefully will attract the attention of a Sahaptian linguist/historian, if there are any around here. The Dalles, the Grand Coulee, Palouse (pelouse is feminine in French, I'm pretty sure, also, i.e. la pelouse) and many other placenames in the area have French origin; what is the evidence against French origin, other than the claim made on the page obverse that Palus, as a Palus word/name, was the source of the term Palouse?Skookum1 09:55, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

text: Further to previous, while there may be a Sahaptian word meaning "something sticking down into the water", why did this become the name for the Palus people? And why did their name, rather than Umatilla or Cayuse or various other native names in the area, not become applied to the grassland? And what's a grassland got to do with "something sticking down into the water"?Skookum1 09:57, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

message: * Oppose to the merger with AAAFNRAA Baby Snakes The Compleat Soundtrack as proposed here by user . Rationale: these are two different editions, with different official release numbers. Baby Snakes (soundtrack) is release #37, whereas AAAFNRAA Baby Snakes The Compleat Soundtrack is release #95. Merging the two articles would induce a problem with the album sequence in the infoboxes. Also, there is a signifiant difference between the editions, as can be seen here and here.

Talk:Battle of Jarrab

message: I have reverted the reference to the effects of Shakespear's death. (I agree that 'changed the couse of history' was a bit dramatic.) However the article is a bit pointless without this note. The Battle of Jarrab was not significant in any way EXCEPT for the death of Shakespear. 
Shakespear was the Empire's point-man and only real link to Ibn Saud. Had he not died, it is likely the British would have armed Ibn Sa'ud  and he rather than Hussein Ibn Ali would have let the British proxy war against the Turks - i.e. T. E. Lawrence and all of that would never have happened and perhaps there would have been a film called 'Shakespear of Arabia' :)
This is an established view and it really was one of those turning points in history. This is a view accepted by almost all orientalist historians, which please see by consulting the references listed for the Shakespear article, and the sub references contained in those references.Mrhawley 08:19, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:John J. Sheehan

message: I've never contributed to an actual article, so I don't really trust myself to do it, but I was curious if someone would want to add a current event concerning John Sheehan.  I don't know if it is worthy to be in the article, but Sheehan recently made national headlines after he turned down the so-called 'war czar' position and publically criticized President Bush and the Iraq war in the media.  This was well covered by the Washington Post specifically in both an article and an op-ed piece written by Sheehan in which he detailed the reasons he turned down the post and what he thought was wrong with the current war.  I just figured that since his criticisms became a big deal in the ongoing political battle concerning the middle east and Iraq specifically that it would be important for an article on him.  Since he was a staunch supporter of the republican party in the past, and was a decorated marine general, his public repudiation of a Republican president's foriegn policy seems somewhat significant.  Anyway, just wondered if it should be included.
Thanx.
On gay Dutch soldiers failing to defend Srebenica: I'm a contributer to nl.wikipedia.org and not so very active on this one.

Talk:Joe Gans

message: Noting that Gans was the first African-American champ is true, but misleading, and needs to be couched in a discussion of black boxing more generally. The "color line" was broken by George Dixon, an African-Canadian, fighting out of Boston in the 1890s. If not for Dixon, there would be no Gans. Thus, I suggest a line in the introduction noting that Dixon was the first black champion of the world, but Gans was the first "African-American" champion, about a decade later.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.100.179.22 (talk) 15:38, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
