Talk:USS Montpelier (CL-57)

message: Montpelier was not named for the Green Mountains.
In her authoritative work Vermont Place-Names, Footprints of History, Esther Munroe Swift tells us:
"The town of Montpelier was granted to Colonel Jacob Davis in 1781, as was nearby Calais. Despite adjustments to pronunciation and spelling, his decision to name these two towns for places in France is likely a combination of factors: there was a general feeling of gratitude in the air toward the French for their assistance in the Revolution, and he was known to dislike the propensity of grantees for naming new Vermont towns after their former homes. Besides which, the young Republic itself bore a name that, while not genuinely good French, consisted of French components, and the mont in Vermont and Montpelier echo each other nicely."
Regarding the spelling and pronunciations, Montpellier (two "L's"), in France, would be pronounced Mon pel YAY, whereas this Vermont city (one "L") is Mont PEEL yer. Vermont's Calais rhymes with "palace", as does the one in Maine.

message: Since I live in Montpelier, when I read that statement in the first paragraph, I was curious naturally as to what the first USS Montpelier was (I was already aware of the submarine). But when I click on the link to the page listing "US Navy ships named 'USS Montpelier'", I only see two ships on that list; this one and the submarine. I tried Googling several different variants on "first USS Montpelier", and I come up with nothing about any ship named "USS Montpelier" other than the two already mentioned. What was the first "USS Montpelier", or was there one? If it's only the two, then this ship is the FIRST USS Montpelier and the nuclear submarine is the second.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by .45Colt (talk • contribs) 15:01, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: For what it's worth, I have an old cruise book from my Dad's time on board the Canberra. This is a quote from the cruise book for the 1956 recommissioning and shakedown cruise, “In 1943 a United States cruiser was in the ways of the shipyard at Quincy, Massachusetts. PITTSBURGH was to be her name, but, when the sacrifice of our Australian allies became known by American, President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered that she should be called the CANBERRA. It was the first time that the name of a city outside our borders had been used for a ship of the U. S. Navy...”  I found that while trying to find a reference to cite for the ship's motto being the Can-Do Kangaroo. I have found one reference in a speech by the Capt. in the cruise book where he says, "By you loyalty and your untiring devotion to duty, given so generously, you have earned the name of 'Kan-Do Kangaroo.' My 'WELL DONE' to each and every one of you is from the bottom of my heart." WayneyP (talk) 22:55, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Albany was recommissioned at Boston on 3 November 1962  ...
On 1 March 1967, she was decommissioned at the Boston Naval Shipyard once again to undergo extensive modifications. Some 20 months later, on 9 November 1968, Albany was placed back in commission at Boston "
: (end quote)
The US navy has not decommissioned ship for conversions /overhauls / upgrades in several years -- Potentially since the early 1970s. Does anyone know reason this practice was stopped? Current, as I write in 2014, there is discussion to restart this practice for some Guided missile cruisers- to include reduced manning even before ship in in availability / overhaul / upgrade. This is primarily as a measure to reduce cost in the limited budget era.

Talk:Rubbery Figures

message: The figures were sculpted in clay by Peter Nicholson. 
For the first few episodes Nicholson created the plaster molds then cast the latex to make the puppets which were then painted and clothed by Handspan Theatre Company,
Nicholson wanted the clothing more detailed and a more natural look to the faces. He engaged a friend of his mother Tutti Pyke, a seamstress, to make the clothing. She recommended her friend dollmaker Lyn Perrott to paint the puppets (Nicholson gave her a magazine showing Spitting Images which had not then been broadcast in Australia, saying he wanted his puppets to have that realistic look. She was asked to trial using glass dolls' eyes but this process would have added too much time to production and the eyes did not sit well in the more contorted faces)  
About a year later Andrew Wright-Smith, a potter, took over the making of the molds from Nicholsons clay sculptures and casting the latex.
AFter the ABC series ended Nicholson asked for detailed explanation of the methods developed to paint the puppets and he and his brother made the later ones.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1591PL (talk • contribs) 23:49, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Sylvania Waters (TV series)

message: Not sure if this accurately describes their financial/social situation. They were not jet-setting millionaires, they were of working-class antecedents, and they had become affluent (not rich-rich) through trade - Laurie owned a smash-repair business. The term these days for this kind of family is 'cashed-up Bogans', meaning they have lots of money, but no taste, no idea of gracious living, and display the maladaptive interpersonal behaviours of the poorly-bred and semi-educated. The classic 'nouveaux' tried to ape the behaviour of their betters, e.g. by attending symphony concerts, the ballet, the opera, art galleries, none of which they understood, but which they went on grimly attending. This is the reason the respective repertoires have remained stuck in the 19th century, when 'New Money' people first arose. They had no true understanding of art, so they were hostile towards (i.e. afraid of) anything that was radically new and different. The situation continues among contemporary mainstream audiences. The nouveau riche took lessons to improve their posture, their diction, their dress. It was for them that the idea of the 'Hundred Best Books' was invented, so they could struggle through Plato and pose as literate. They rarely succeeded in erasing their inbred gaucherie. This is the situation  Shaw examines in his 'Pygmalion'. Eliza Doolittle can never escape her genes, no matter how classy her accent. 
The Sylvania people had no pretensions towards culture or intellectual betterment, so they are not strictly 'nouveau'. 
Note the links that show that the family was shocked and outraged when the program aired; they had no idea that the BBC would portray them as what they were, i.e. vulgarians. Noelene thought she was going to star in her own brand of  'Dallas'. There was also anger from middle-class Australians (e.g. letters in the Herald signed 'Outraged of Turramarra' ) who were mortified that the BBC had portrayed this family as 'typical Australians'. Others replied that there were more Australian families like this than 'Outraged' would care to admit, and even more who would like to live that way. 
Sylvania Waters exemplified an emerging (and by now almost complete) strategy of the capitalist class in the late 20th century, which was to overpay the tradesman/working class while at the same time appealing to their greed, creating a thirst for acquisition and ownership quite unknown by their forebears, making many of them petty proprietors (of 'rental' properties') and saddling them with huge debts to service. Accordingly, the number of strikes dropped dramatically, and the retail and manufacturing economies burgeoned. This strategy - perhaps unintentionally - further marginalised the unskilled and ineducable, and therefore unemployable, swelling the ranks of the underclass, persons devoid of any hope of improving their circumstances, with an associated increase in welfare payments, crime, and social problems. 121.44.19.209 (talk) 20:51, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

If by 'doctors' one means to imply medical doctors (which psychiatrists are) would it not be more appropriate to state 'physicians' rather than doctors.
