Talk:Marzotto

message: Marzotto 'acquired HUGO BOSS'. I don't know much about business but is it said that when a company owns the majority share (in this case 50.9%) they have acquired the company. In a non-business lingo sense I interpreted acquire to own the company 100% and perhaps to remove from the stock market if the company in question floats. Thank you. --Djkinsella 01:21, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

message: "As the name suggests, this piece of furniture was originally covered"
How does the name "cupboard" suggest it was originally covered, unless it is truly pronounced as such.  I've always heard it pronounced "cubberd". The name itself suggests that it was once a board for cups.
I can explain this...the alternative pronounciation is new, it is the one being presistently championed by the young activist T Moody; many people are aware of this. Ref simplifications in the English language popularized by Webster.82.26.90.110 00:20, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Calling it a rape is not completely wrong, but it also seems to miss the mark, and make the situation seem much more brutal than it is.

message: The Spike TV program scheduled for December 13, 2006 is being called UFC Fight Night 7 by UFC.com.   I think we should forget what MMA websites are calling the event (MMANews, Sherdog).

I agree that we should settle on a different name for the Ortiz vs. Shamrock 3: The Final Chapter article.  Since we switched the names of the articles, I think it is important that we keep the notice at the head of each article (I have included one for both the Ortiz-Shamrock and Fight Night 7 articles).
