Talk:Here (comics)

message: I don't have a supported OS but the interactive edition sounds pretty neat. From "Time, Remixed" by Sarah Larson of The New Yorker, quoting the author:
"'When I signed the contract, there was no such thing as an iPad,' he said. But now there is, and it gave him another opportunity for reinvention. You can read it normally—or not. 'If you click on the panels and the dates, it starts to explode them,' he said. 'If you click on the upper corner, it makes new combinations that don’t exist inside the printed book. It reinvents it, even for me—combinations I never would have imagined. But there are story threads. So if there’s something you want to follow, you can touch that panel and continue reading that little story.' He said it was 'kind of like having a remix version of the book.'"
Please consider trying this version and updating the article.

thread_title:  "earth" on the 1st paragraph 

message: I removed the following passage as it had been marked as unverified:
:In traditional Japanese cultures, this particular animal is given as a wedding gift due to the fact that certain bioluminescent shrimp (arthropoda) tend to form a symbiosis with them. The sponge houses two small shrimp, a male and a female, who live out their lives inside the sponge( they come inside it through ostia--minute pore, feed inside & due to increase in size they can't go out). They breed, and when their offspring are tiny, the offspring escape to find a Venus Flower Basket of their own. thus the shrimps pair live together till death. inspired by this romantic thought Japanese people give venous flower basket as a gift to marriage couple.

Talk:Continental Airlines Flight 1713

message: In the article it said Continental Airlines would "...developed a computerized assignment program that would keep pilots with less than 100 hours flying time in type from being assigned to the same flight."
I don't see how that would have changed anything on this flight. The captain had over 100 hrs. The first officer had less than 100 hrs. So keeping "pilots with less than 100 hours flying time in type from being assigned to the SAME flight" would still have permitted the same first officer in the cockpit with the same captain, as the captain had over 100 hrs.  Perhaps going to the source, in this case the AP article published by the NYT, might clear up exactly how Continental thought this would have made any difference. However, while I value the concept behind "know thy enemy," I do maintain a standing practice of NEVER visiting the NYT, for a wide variety of sickening reasons which I'm sure is more than obvious to anyone who cares about this country. Maybe someone who can stand the HS there could read AP's old article and find out why Continental felt their "computerized assignment program" would have made a difference, or in any way have mitigated the risks associated with this tragic accident. Right now the way it reads isn't making sense. Thanks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.166.26.178 (talk) 02:17, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

That said, the cites don't specifically say either are of Cornish descent. The only cite given just says that Trethewey is a Cornish name. May be synthesis to infer that, though. Haven't challenged that yet on that page because I wanted to research a little before I do, but that might need to be taken down there as well. If you can find a reliable source that says she is also of Cornish heritage, by all means you can add it. Thank you. -- JoannaSerah (talk) 23:12, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

This is the relevant section on "fair use" in Wikipedia: Fair Use. As I understand these policies, "copyright exists automaticaly". If the material is not Public Domain, licensed under the GFDL or specifically licensed to Wikipedia on suitable terms, it should not be used verbatim. The text should be rewritten.

Talk:Waytha Moorthy Ponnusamy

message: True, Hindraf is about the rights of Hindus in Malaysia. But, which Hindus? Answer to that would be Tamils in Malaysia of Indian origins. Tens of thousands of Hindu temples have been demolished by the Malay government. Was this because of the Malays dislike for Hinduism, or the Tamil working class of Indian origins? Let me explain that if the Tamils were Buddhists and the Chinese (the ones with the money) were Hindu, it would be the Buddhist temples that would be demolished and not the Hindu ones. The Tamil working class may be primarily Hindu, but there are Tamils of Christian and Catholic faiths who undergo the same discrimination in schools and jobs.
The original protest was sparked by the demolition of Hindu temples, but grew out to finally expose the injustices not only in temple demolition, but discrimination against Tamils in jobs and education. Please do not jump the gun and make this out to be a religious issue, when religion is only part of the bigger issue, and this bigger issue is unequal treatment of Tamils in Malaysia. Wiki Raja (talk) 05:09, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I am not arguing with you on this. However, what I am trying to explain is that this is a Tamil problem. If you want to say which faith amongst the Tamils are the minority, it would be the Christians. But this is not what this topic we are discussion is about. This is about discrimination of the Tamil working class from Tamil Nadu who came from the homeports of Madras and Nagapatnam during the British rule. The laborers were Hindu in Majority, and Christian/ Catholic in Minority. There were several Tamil groups in Malaysia, but it was HINDRAF which took the lead while the others did not want to participate, out of fear. I give HINDRAF credit for taking the lead and hope that other Tamil groups will follow. I will stand up against the demolition of Hindu temples on behave of my Tamil brothers and sisters of Hindu faith, even though I am not Hindu. What bonds Tamils together is the fact that we are Tamil. We must eradicate ourselves from religious, national, and caste differences and unite as Tamils. While uniting as Tamils we must at the same time respect each others faiths and backgrounds. Wiki Raja (talk) 20:48, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
