Talk:Governor of the Bank of Canada

message: Am I the only one who thinks this description is misleading?  By describing the Governor as the chair of the board of governors, it makes him look like a CEO who is not actively involved in the day-to-day decisions of the bank.  Is there a better way of describing the Governor?  Deleting Unnecessary Words 16:13, 8 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: I am tagging this article for some maintenance I believe is overdue. While I would correct as many things as I could, in lieu of tagging, my internet connection is not currently reliable. I hope other users will correct this fairly important national article to some semblance befitting the subject. As time and connection permits, I will likely make some corrections myself in the near future. It is my hope that the WikiProject Canada will take a lead in considering this comment.

thread_title: Another comment

message: At time of commenting, the article currently states that the governor is expected to follow the directives of the ministers and cites the Bank of Canada Act. While this is technically true, they neglect to mention that if this does indeed happen, the expectation on the governor is to immediately resign in protest after the making the policy change. In practice, this expectation prevents the minister from making policy changes and preserves the independence of the governor. If someone could find a source and amend the article, it would be appreciated. Talcite (talk) 13:34, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

message: This article begins when its subject is 30 years old, two years before her death.  There is nothing in the text about her childhood and upbringing, except that the name of her mother is mentioned—after her death.  Even the circumstances of her marriage (which led to the crime for which she is known) are omitted.

Talk:So What (Joe Walsh album)

message: This page has the wrong title.  There is more then one "So what" out there, tards.
Agree - is this album really more significant than the Miles Davis track?
Depends on who you ask...
There's a lot of us "'tards" out here for whom this album was important, and for whatever reason (can you say 'corporate radio'?) we didn't pick up on Miles Davis until MUCH later. Now, both 'Kind of Blue' and 'So What' are among my favorite albums. But in 1975 we high-school freaks didn't listen to Miles Davis; we listened to Joe Walsh.

Talk:But Seriously, Folks...

message: "Life's Been Good" runs 8:57 on this album, but on The Best of Joe Walsh it runs 8:04. What's different? I think it did run 8:04 on the original vinyl release, and then later, there was a funny secret message from Joe Walsh, which was added 30 seconds after the music faded out. That was probably a CD trick. —Gm1121983 14:11, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:James Farley

message: As a minor anecdote which I would not add without approval:
In the science fiction book Double Star which is about fighting a system wide election Robert Heinlein, who knew electoral politics, refered to Farley as the greatest political manager & the inventor of the Farleyfile - a system of recording every piece of personal information that a leader had been told by every individual he had met. This allows the leader, with a little reminding, to have a personal chat with people to whom his opinion is important but whom he would not normally remember.

message: : Remembered as one of the greatest business minds and salesmen of the 20th century, Farley guided and remained at the helm of Coca-Cola International for over 30 years and was responsible for the company's global expansion as a quasi-government agency in World War II.  This was used as a boost to the morale and energy levels of the fighting boys.  Shipped with food and ammo as a “war priority item,” the deal spread Coke's market worldwide at government expense.  Also at U.S. expense after the war, fifty-nine new Coke plants were installed to help rebuild Europe.
Needs a bit of rewording.  Coca-Cola's global expansion was used as a boost for the soldiers?  The deal (what deal?) was shipped with food and ammo?  —Tamfang (talk) 23:41, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Scotch bonnet

message: The Scotsch Bonnet is available in Guyana, which neighbors Suriname. The 2 main peppers available and native to Suriname are Madamme Janette and Adjuma (Adjoema). The Schots Bonnet and Adjuma and Madamma Jeanette look very similar, however, I can tell a Madamme Jeanette from a Adjuma by taste: Madama Jeanette does have more taste where Adjuma is just very hot. How does this relate to the Madamma Jeannete, they must be family of eachother? 23:40, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Relation to Madame Jeanette ? 

message: The Habanero is elongated, smooth and pointed, some are heart shaped. They have a sweet fruity flavour where the scotch bonnet is tart; if you can get past the heat to the taste, that is.
There are many many links to pictures of habaneros claiming to be scotch bonnets all over the net, and very often even the pepper sellers at the fruit exchange wouldn't know the difference if it smacked them in the head.
These links show actual scotch bonnet pictures: http://visualpalate.typepad.com/visual_palate/2005/06/up_close_hot.html

They have a decidedly caplike appearance to them.

message: Somewhere in the article, it should be mentioned that 6 Alice shorts appear in the Walt Disney Treasurse: Disney Rarities. Casey14 17:34, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Walt Disney Treasures

message: I believe that I have figured out how they put Alice into the cartoon eviornments, but I am not certain and have no verifyied source, and am unsure if I should post it. The main way was where Alice was filmed on a completely white set. Then the cartoons were filmed, but the part where Alice was supposed to be was blank, and since it was in black-and-white, that place turned out white (the reason for the mostly blank backgrounds). Then they put the film containing Alice on top, and since there was nothing behind her, she seemed to be in the cartoon. Sometimes, however, she had to walk through areas that were NOT all white, and that would mean that when the film of her was put on top, she would seem transparent, so they traced her frame-by-frame and then put that in white on top of the background. Then, when she was put on top, she covered up to white tracing. This can be pretty easily spotted as she didn't cover up the white tracing entirly. The last way is, when all else failed, they would create cartoon images of her, the main reason later cartoons had her in only black and white (no grays(only the backgrounds had greys)).See Ya', tfullwood 14:00, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
