Newark for transportation to Taku, China. This detachment arrived off Taku on June 18, and was joined by a small detachment of 2 officers and 30 enlisted men sent forward from Cavite in the U.S.S. Nashville. The officers of these detachments were as follows: Maj. L.W.T. Waller, commanding; First Lieuts. S.D. Butler, Henry Leonard, George C. Reid, R.F. Wynne, W.G.

replies: text: I concur with your analysis. --Coolcaesar 22:03, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I remember seeing an article somewhere that the reason for why Caltrans didn't want to put on exit tabs was wind loading issues, but I can't find it.  If I recall correctly, the problem is that California signs are traditionally very thin sheets of metal that look very "floppy" if not attached to anything.  They're bolted to the support truss behind them that gives them structural integrity, but that means that exit tabs have to be bolted to that truss as well with their own support structures. And those structures impose additional weight, which means the calculations for wind loading (and earthquakes) have to be redone for the entire structure.  With many of the older sign gantries, the original planners weren't expecting any additional weight, so the result is that the entire gantry needs to be demolished and replaced.  Rather than do all that work, Caltrans got permission to just squeeze the exit numbers onto the existing signs instead.  I'll have to keep looking for that source, though, before I can put that in the article. --Coolcaesar (talk) 14:01, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

message: It's amazing such an important sociology article has slipped through the net. Generally (and I don't mean in this article per se) the sense of criticism against positivism is too strong - one must remember that positivism is alive and kicking in the billion dollars of research that businesses and governments spend on numerical data, and that Durkheim was actually a very liberal and reasonable thinker in his time, not such a grand, nefarious, humanist schemer. Only by comparison with Marx was he a conservative. (You might want to read the book by Jonathan Fish, 'Defending the Durkheimian tradition'.

message: The example given is unclear on one point - the fourth image where an atom is located on the edge of the board. In other examples it is impossible for a ray to go along the side of an atom - it bends on the space diagonally adjacent to the atom. In this case, however, the ray must pass alongside an atom. In this case it is not made clear by the rules what the ray's behavior should be - should it bend immediately, or should it wait until it is diagonally adjacent to the atom and then bend? Or should it terminate, as rays that enter squares horizontally or vertically adjacent to atoms do elsewhere? This seemingly simple example seems to me to actually be a limit case.
