Talk:Pension Protection Act of 2006

message: Hello, I'm drafting an article on supporting organizations.  Supporting organizations are a creature of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Pension Protection Act amended the IRC to change  the treatment of supporting organizations.  Mind if I add some small reference to the PPA's effect on charitable organizations, particularly supporting organizations?  This should be something no more than indicating that the PPA dealt with charitable organizations and sought to curb donor abuse. EECavazos 15:40, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd say so long as you can provide sources to back up your claims, it should make for an interesting read. I see you've done well adding sources to Supporting organization (charity), so I doubt that'll be a problem. Be bold! - auburnpilot talk 16:01, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I added the section.  However, I left room for the impact that the PPA made on donor-advised funds and private foundations.  For that reason I put the supporting organization subsection in the bold type form.  This way the other subsections on donor-advised funds and private foundations may go in.  Is this the proper approach?  Leaving room for further sections.  I'm new and don't want to make mistakes or step on toes.EECavazos 23:32, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: PPA affecting other areas of the law

message: I think a couple edits could be useful on this.  First, saying that PPA "requires companies to more accurately analyze their pension plans' obligations" is a bit political and biased. It changed the measurement from a long-term funding calculation to a plan termination calculation. Both forms are perfectly accurate, its just that they measure very different things. I might call it a more conservative calculation method, but certainly not more accurate.
Also, saying that it "closes loopholes that previously allowed some companies to underfund their plans by skipping payments" is also potentially misleading. I assume the loophole mentioned is the Credit Balance.  A, the credit balance is not going away (it is just being limited in its uses), B, I think its misleading calling it a loophole. The way plans were using credit balances to avoid plan contributions was exactly as the law was written and intended. The problem was, it was just bad law. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Esteban Tuttle (talk • contribs) 22:52, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Marie Rambert

message: I'm wondering if this "Madame Rat" is a real, specific person. I couldn't find any reference to her online, other than this article (and mirrors) and another that perhaps draws from the same sources and only mentions "Madame Rat" (no first name) in relation to Rambert. I ask because one thing I discovered in my searches is that "rat" is a slang term for a child dancing student at the Paris Opéra Ballet school (see ). It's not much of a stretch to imagine that a female instructor for a group of such girls might be known as "Madame Rat", or that a particular long-time teacher might have acquired that nickname. Does anyone know if Madame Rat is a real person, and, if so, what her full name is? Or have access to the references cited in the article, where more might be learned?--ShelfSkewed Talk 17:43, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Rambert in her book Quicksilver (Polish edition) noticed this meaning of "les petits rats", but wrote that "Rat" is the real name. Anyway I think that Madame Rat isn't a notable person ;-). Gytha (talk) 09:43, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Assuming this is referring to the New York hardcore kids, is "scary misfits" really an appropriate term? That's just an opinion, and while I would be fine with just "misfits", I think "scary" is quite unnecessary.
update: there's quite a few things that need fixed, so i'm not going to just sit here and hope someone else does it.

Talk:Dao Lang (singer)

message: Critics say that he is a typical example of a Han who stereotypes Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities that inhabit northwestern China. Some of his quotes appear to lend support to such an assertion. For example, he was once quoted as saying, "I traveled to the Gobi Desert to meet Uyghur people and study their music." In fact, the Uyghurs live primarily around Xinjiang's Taklamakan Desert, and few live in the Gobi Desert.
Sorry Guys - but that´s just bullshit - 
First of all: there are Uyghurs in the Gobi Desert. 
Second: The Word "Gobi" has not the same meaning in Chinese as in English. Is a chinese version of this interview also avalible? 
Third: Dao Lang has proven many times that he is a big fan of uyghur culture.
Your arguments do not prove anything.

The locks, side PONDS, overflows and pounds (the bit between each individual lock) were designed with conservation of water in mind, by the engineer, Thomas dadford Junior.
