Talk:Pageboy

message: A while back I renamed this article to the apparently more standard Pageboy. It originally said:
:The Page Boy is a hair style named after a drawing of a woman dressed as an English page boy.
I'm wondering what the source for this is. Is this a particular drawing by a particular artist? Also, as far as I know, the style was actually popularized in the 1920s by the actress Louise Brooks. But I don't know enough about this to expand the article. Unfortunately, a talk-page message to the original author hasn't been answered. - dcljr (talk) 1 July 2005 08:38 (UTC)

Colchis, I am going to restore the image, because: 1) it is the only available picture satisfactorily illustrating the nature of the region; 2) Western Caucasus is a geographical province rather than the mere WHS, and Lake Ritsa falls within this province. There is no claim that Lake Ritsa is part of Russia or part of the World Heritage Site. --Ghirla-трёп- 13:05, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would be happy if you were a bit more civil. The image is ok, but then the article should be rephrased, because now it is about the WHS (see the lead: The Western Caucasus is a natural UNESCO World Heritage Site), which doesn't extend into Abkhazia. I would expand the article myself, but I am busy now and often come across article owners, which is not a very encouraging experience. As to other parts, UNESCO are by no means the only source about this site. Some parts of the Caucasian Biosphere Reserve do extend into Khosta, a part of Greater Sochi, this yew and box grove is at least as famous as the fir forest and is included into the WHS. The reference you have provided was a nomination, it doesn't have to be 100% accurate. Information about Krasnodar Krai, Adygea and Karachay-Cherkessia is also appropriate and gives better idea of where the WHS is situated. If you need online sources in English, look at .

Chun Fa Lok (春花落) is one of the old names of Tsing Yi Island. I have not yet come across with any documentation about the name on the current maps.  Was it a village name or else?  Anyway, the position of Chau Tsai (Chun Fa Shik) was different from Chun Fa Lok on the maps.

Talk:Gamma camera

message: Collimation can be acheived without use of pin holes and large collimators. Consider compton scattering interactions in which the photon is incident and scaterred through an angle with a resulting energy related to the scattering angle. Placing a thin 'pixelated' semiconductor detector before a main 'pixelated' semiconductor detecor will act as a scattering medium before the main detector. Thus, both interactions are well resolved in energy and space and the compton scattering formula can be used to project a cone into the patient plane in which the orignal photon emission occured. By continuted projection and interception of many cones the source can be well defined in 3d space, with millimeter resolution (the limit of resolution is related to the recoil momentum of the electron ~ 0.6mm @ 551keV). This method also has the advantage of using nearly all emitted photons. The technique is being developed for medical imaging (PET and SPECT) with germanium detectors and security screening using CZT due to the temperature of operation.

Is there a name for this technique for obtaining better gamma camera resolution using two detectors and the Compton scattering effect?
My understanding is that most astronomical gamma cameras use a different technique to improve resolution: coded aperture imaging.
Do any medical gamma cameras use this technique? If not, why?

Talk:Floating-rate bond

message: For a June 2005 deletion debate over this page see Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Floating-rate bond
----
I've put it up for deletion again. The June 05 discussion was interesting, but... There is no such concept as a 'Floating-rate bond' in the bond markets. Yes, there are bonds that have floating rate coupons, but these are universally known as Floating Rate Notes (I know, just one of those quirks of a living market). As you'll see there's quite a substantial entry there. My suggestion would be to just have this entry redirect to the FRN entry. Not signed edit from DocendoDiscimus on 20:23, 9 September 2005 
:As John C. Hull speaks about a "floating-rate bond" in Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives (fifth edition) P. 126 and the article Floating rate note says: "Floating rate notes (FRNs) are bonds [...]", it seems to me reasonable to redirect from "floating rate notes" to "floating-rate bond" - instead of the other way round, like up to now.

text: Pululla oli kannukset, pulu ei kaatunut, mutta pulu kallistui, to which I'm not providing a translation.

replies: text: Even as much I both hate to spoil a joke, and dislike this kind of puerile humour, for the benefit of our non-Finnish-speaking readership, I'm providing a translation. Kizor's original sentence means "the pigeon had spurs, the pigeon didn't fall down, but the pigeon was tilted". When switched, it becomes "kalulla oli punnukset, kalu ei puutunut, mutta kalu pullistui, meaning "the penis had weights, the penis didn't become insensitive, but the penis swelled". Kalu, in fact, simply means "tool, device" in Finnish, but depending on context, can also mean "penis". JIP | Talk 21:33, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Brave, however, should definitely be mentioned. Looking up the sources, none of the statistics seem to register Brave at all (probably because of the privacy shields).
