Talk:EMD SDL39

message: I've seen videos on Youtube of the SDL39s working in South America. Is this where they ended up after the Wisconsin Central was purchased? --76.239.3.132 15:28, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Final Disposition? 

message: They were leased by and the Soo returned them to the lessor after storing them at Shoreham in the spring of 1986 to protect against major failures that they'd be on the hook for. Their general manager-equipment, Larry Bell, stated in the November 1986 issue of Trains Magazine that Soo wasn't interested in retaining them because of their non-standard trucks (As well as confirming that they had been parked earlier in the year, as I said).
Wisconsin Central wasn't formed until April 1987. They just happened to be available at the right time and at the right price when they were looking for power, allowing them to continue to operate on the former Milwaukee branch from Milwaukee to to Green Bay, along with the original Soo lines that formed the bulk of the Wisconsin Central like the old Soo main line from Forest Park to Minneapolis (The Soo keeping the superior Milwaukee route).
Except perhaps at their new home after Wisconsin Central disappeared and they were exported, they were never railroad owned. They were leased from day 1 when they appeared on the Milwaukee Road and continued to be owned by a leasing company throughout their Soo, Wisconsin Central, and final days on the Canadian National before they were quickly returned to the lessor after the WC acquisition. 
That's why they never were in any of the Canadian National auctions of surplus WC power, for instance.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.249.6.209 (talk) 19:00, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

message: The opening sentence of the Electrophysiology section says that Merkel cells are not encapsulated.  I have seen conflicting information online about whether Merkel cells are encapsulated or not:
* No?  "Merkel’s disks are unencapsulated nerve endings in the epidermis." —  StatPearls online article on Mechanoreceptors, Franklin Iheanacho; Anantha Ramana Vellipuram (via NIH)
* Yes?  "Four major types of encapsulated mechanoreceptors are ... Merkel's disks," —  Neuroscience. 2nd edition., Purves D, Augustine GJ, Fitzpatrick D, et al., editors. Sunderland (MA): Sinauer Associates; 2001. (via NIH)
* No?  "Mechanoreceptors include the nonencapsulated Merkel’s discs" —  Clinical Anatomy of the Spine, Spinal Cord, and ANS (Third Edition), 2014, Susan A. Darby, Robert J. Frysztak, Cutaneous Receptors (via ScienceDirect)
* Yes?  "receptors include bare nerve endings ... and encapsulated endings. The latter include ... Merkel's discs" —  Netter's Atlas of Neuroscience (Third Edition), 2016, David L. Felten, M. Kerry O'Banion and Mary Summo Maida, 9.11 Cutaneous Receptors (via ScienceDirect)
As of this writing (March 11, 2024), the  OpenStax open Biology textbook, 2e even disagrees with itself, with the text saying they are, "Merkel’s ... are slow-adapting, encapsulated nerve endings", but the Figure 36.5 caption saying they are not, "Merkel’s disks, which are unencapsulated".  (I made an OpenStax errata submission pointing out the discrepancy.)
I do not have the expertise to decide if the current Wikipedia content is incorrect.  I just wanted to point out the possibility.
New editor, feedback welcome, but note that I am a layperson without access to the primary sources, which is why I used NIH and ScienceDirect links.  Thank you.

Specifically- according to the 'Evolution' episodes, and hearkening back to the first appearance of a Goa'uld 'mother' (I forget the name of the episode...somewhere in season 6, I think), the 'mother' is the one responsible for choosing whether her symbiote spawn possess the genetic memory of the Goa'uld.

Talk:Divine Right (game)

message: Should "Divine Right" contrast with "Divine Wrong", "Divine Left", or "Divine Duty", or should it compare to "Divine Conservative" or "The Divine Stuff", or just exactly what, pray tell? The term seems to be confused. (I was thinking of asking Encyclopedia Britannica for a job, once, long ago, but I didn't.)(I'm so bright my parents called me "son", but I'm still curious about the vast prevalence of something apparently "resuming" in the job market. Back in the seveties and eighties, during my brief but nevertheless quite profitable albeit exhorbitantly expensive "career", so to speak, people just STARTED jobs. This business of, apparently, "RESUMING" a "career" [we suppose...], rather than just starting another job seems to be somewhat remenicent of coddling, for some less-than-odd reason. What might concern linguists most of all is the rather strange, somewhat obscure yet popular practice of hijacking this verb for common use as a noun! Shouldn't someone, like, say, Dianne Sawyer, or Oprah Winfrey, get to the bottom of this, find out who is responsible, and do something about it?

Talk:Candida (play)

message: I question whether Marchbanks is really where Candida's heart is.  When I read the play, it seemed more to indicate that Candida does love Marchbanks, but not in that way, and that she chose a method of showing him that he could not possibly have her.  I didn't get any indication that, if indeed her husband did not "need" her in the way she says he does, she would cheerfully leave him for Marchbanks.  Is there strong indication of either possibility being a better reading?
Also, I don't know enough about reading the play to say it well in the article, but could someone point out the idea that Marchbanks might be better off unmarried?  The play does seem to indicate that, and I have read it in one review.
--
That was one of the ideas which recur in Candida and Man and Superman, that the basic urge of a woman is to mother. Which is an interesting question, given that the "Woman Question" has never been sufficiently resolved, even after the tumult of the Sexual Revolution. The giveaways for how Candida feels (the genuine possibility that she would leave her husband for Marchbanks) are in the commanding italics - the little gestures and adverbs which describe her actions in minute, Truffautian detail. I love the way the play ends, by the way. At least, for Marchbanks. (I think there can be a lot of discussion on Shaw's assessment of the basic female urge to nurture and protect. Being a woman, it's hard to know quite how to take that...)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.140.36.222 (talk) 06:55, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Plot, productions

message: The intro paragraph states that Morell is a Fabian Socialist. The text of the play says "The Reverend James Mavor Morell is a Christian Socialist clergyman of the Church of England, and an active member of the Guild of St. Matthew and the Christian Social Union." If Shaw, who was a member, wanted Morell to be one too, that could have been mentioned here. Instead, the closest thing to supporting the claim that Morell is a member is this: "guess at his politics from a yellow backed Progress and Poverty, Fabian Essays, a Dream of John Ball, Marx's Capital, and half a dozen other literary landmarks in Socialism", and the exchange with Proserpine that ends with Morell saying "bother the Fabian Society". At best, the idea that Morell is a Fabian is, as it says, a guess at his politics, so doesn't belong in the introduction as a statement of fact.
Suggest changing the intro to read:
"The cleric is a Christian socialist, allowing Shaw—himself a Fabian Socialist—to weave political issues, current at the time, into the story."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhanafee (talk • contribs) 19:41, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
