Talk:Nigel Bruce

message: the Bruce portrayal made him seem dimmer and more bumbling than his literary counterpart
This was perceived as being necessary in order for Holmes (Rathbone) to be able to more-fully explain the plot to the movie audience. Ian Dunster 13:30, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

message: This page lists his birthday as Feb 4, 1895 but this page does not.

A google search finds several references to Feb 14.  His headstone just has the year, not the date.  I don't know which one is correct.

message: Bruce's "Dr. Watson" character can be confused with Billy Bevan's characters in two Holmes films. Bevan played a constable in The Pearl of Death and a railway conductor in Terror by Night. He closely resembled the Dr. Watson character and some viewers, especially young children, might not have been able to tell the difference between the two.Lestrade (talk) 21:42, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

message: In the “Watson role” section, Loren D. Estleman’s comment seems to be very subjective. It reflects his own personal point of view, which I believe is totally false. There is no relation between his comments and anything portrayed in the films. We all have a unique viewpoint, just as, in elections, we all have one vote. I vote that Loren D. Estleman is wrong and that his description is inappropriate.Lestrade (talk) 23:50, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: Some older views — that Lincoln craftily "trapped" Douglas into making a statement at Freeport which directly and solely lost him the support of southern Democrats — were certainly melodramatic and oversimplified.  However, the Freeport Doctrine, in the form of the demand for the insertion of a congressional slave code plank in the Democratic platform, was the immediate cause of the split at Charleston in 1860...

text: P.S. The idea that Popular Sovereignty was any kind of "compromise" between pro-slavery and anti-slavery positions was of course vehemently rejected by anti-slavery advocates, since in practice Pop.Sov. required those opposed to slavery to give up previously-won protections and gains (such as the Missouri compromise line), while receiving absolutely nothing in return -- and furthermore, the events following the Kansas-Nebraska act seemed to set off a flood of ever-increasing and ever more extreme Southern demands...

Talk:Bulk Richardson number

message: I added quite a bit of content pertaining to BRN and storm-type forecasting as part of a mesoscale meteorology class assignment. For BRN, as defined by the AMS, supercell development is usually linked to BRN values between 10 and 45 not 50 to 100 as was previously stated.
The content here is only regarding the BRN reported in soundings and is used for storm-type forecasting. I do not intend to say anything relating the BRN  for calculating planetary boundary layer (PBL) height as the BRN is defined differently there (as I understand it, height thickness isn't fixed in that case since height is the dependent variable). Again, the content I have added only pertains to BRN as used and calculated for mesoscale forecasting.
Please discuss any problems with the content here before obliterating or significantly altering my contributions. I can back up what I have stated here. Thanks.
--Kerm23 19:21, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Major update and revision

message: The calculation for BRN here does not give any info on units.  Also from my understanding, it is not the 6 km wind that is used but a 0-6 km density-weighted mean wind. The references either have omissions or obfuscate the definition with extremely detailed content.  I have tagged this as needing attention by an expert. -Rolypolyman 16:22, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Omissions

message: The BRN defined here is a dimensionless quantity. CAPE has units of J/kg = m^2/s^2. The denominator is the difference between two wind speeds, so the units there are m^2/s^2, so the units cancel out appropriately. Again, this is a simple metric commonly used to predict mesoscale convective potential. If you think about it, the denominator is a simple approximate integration of the wind speed over the two height levels.

message: Hi, I noticed there was no formula for the Bulk Richardson Number in this article. I've recently been part of a group updating the article on Cold air damming and we are linking to Bulk Richardson Number. We've been using Gary Lackmann's Midlatitude Synoptic Meteorology: Dynamics, Analysis, and Forecasting as a source for a lot of our information, and we used the Bulk Richardson Number formula from his chapter on Cold air damming. 
Here's the formula we included in Cold air damming coded in LaTeX
Ri = \frac{g\Delta \theta _{v}/\theta _{v}}{[(\Delta U)^2 + (\Delta V)^{2}]/\Delta Z}
I hope this is somehow helpful. I'm not a meteorology expert, so I didn't add it to the article, but I'll get someone to take a look and make sure this is correct.

The dates in the report though differ by two months the date of death on the citation, leaving me to assume that either the wrong date of death/action is recorded on the citation, or the date on the citation is the date of award instead of the date of death/action (still wrong anyway).

This is an odd statement to make, bearing in mind that Halstead wrote about 95% of all released Slowdive material. 'Just For A Day' was all Halstead. 'Souvlaki' was all Halstead bar 'Space Station' and the Eno tracks.
It may be better to state that Saville and Chaplin weren't particularly interested in the new musical style. Rachel Goswell certainly states this was the case at Slowdive site 84.12.47.154 12:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
