Talk:Point Barrow

message: I corrected the article which stated that the Rogers-Post memorial site was "nearby" to Point Barrow. Using the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration calculator at http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gccalc.shtml, and the lat/long coordinates for the memorial 71°9′20″N 157°2′58″W, to Point Barrow, the distance is 33 km. or 20.5 miles southwest of the point, hardly "nearby." The rockets were fired from the "Shooting Station," hence the place name to which it is referred, which is a few miles southwest, closer to NARL than it is to Point Barrow. I also distinguished the gray whales as a species not hunted by the Iñupiat. The Makah in northwest Washington state have traditional and treaty hunting rights, but have been precluded from legal hunts since taking one gray whale in 1999. Siberian natives take Eastern Pacific grays,  but not as a traditional source of food, but rather for fur farms. This has led to disputes with the Soviet Union and now Russia.

You are correct that there are no mountains near Point Barrow.  There are no mountains in the image either.  That is sea ice shoved up on the beach.  You can see a van used by a former tour company here in Utqiaġvik  Anne Brygger (talk) 04:57, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Collinwood school fire

message: I found conflicting information on the doors.  Some sites state that all doors opened inward, other noted that exterior doors opened outward while interior doors opened inward.  Whatever the case, the fire was horrific and the outcome was better fire safety for schools Stu
I attended the second school in the late 1960's. We were taught the history of the school and told that all the doors opened inward. Thus no one could get out..  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samiamh (talk • contribs) 04:52, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Devin Grayson

message: Apart from being all too brief this article lacks details:
Date of Birth; why she changed her name and what the original was (this may not be public knowledge); more detailed biography; bibliography.
For the record she's one of my favourite authors, but
Some critics, however, have charged that Grayson's success is based more on notoriety (and her relationship with the highly successful Waid) than actual talent.  A number of fans have complained that her work is poorly paced and prone to narrative excess, with verbose dialogue and captions attempting to compensate for actual story telling.  None of her books have sold particularly well, some argue, and those that do, it is claimed, do so because Grayson is paired on those books with highly popular artists, such as "good girl" artist Jim Balent.
seems very POV.
Also, a sad lack of citations.

replies: text: I would have to agree, and I'm considering putting the POV template on this article.  Since the passage tacitly admits that some of Grayson's titles have sold well, it's highly subjective to attribute that to the artist.Bjones 18:35, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Degustation

message: Is "Degustation" really an English term, or is it just Spanglish? I first heard it from my wife, who is Spanish. She does Spanglish all the time. For example the Spanish term for freezer is congelador. So in English that must be Congelator ;)
 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanglish
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degustaci%C3%B3n
:Not Spanglish at all, but what one might call "a (characteristically pretentious!) Frenchism" -- no less genuinely English for all that, however. English is notoriously indiscriminate about adopting words from here, there, and everywhere ...and isn't that, in fact, part of the language's strength? A "dégustation" is -- on one level -- simply a "tasting" ...but on the level to which its users aspire, a very refined one, of course! -- Picapica (talk) 17:02, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Get Ready (The Temptations song)

message: Are you sure that sound clip is the Temptations version?  Compare it with another of their songs such as "Ain't Too Proud to Beg," and the lead singer in that clip is nowhere to be heard.  I have two versions of this song, the one from which that clip is taken and another that sounds (to me, at least) more like it's the Temptations version.  However, I don't have any solid proof of that.  Is there some solid proof that the clip on this page is in fact the Temptations version?
Edit: I was wrong; the version I thought was the original is in fact the Rare Earth version.  Maybe I'll upload a clip of it sometime.
:A sample of the Rare Earth version would be great. As for the differences in the lead singers of both Temptations songs, the group was known to have different lead singers on different songs. Falsetto Eddie Kendricks sings lead on "Get Ready", and raspy tenor David Ruffin (the group's offiical lead singer during this period, and the lead vocalist on "My Girl")  sings lead on "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" --FuriousFreddy 23:54, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
