Talk:Social impact assessment

message: The definition of social impact assessment appears incomplete.  The sources do list Vanclay which defines SIA, but it is not inline sourced, and Vanclay could be used to strengthen the SIA definition.
In the origins paragraph, a mention of the National Environment Policy Act (NEPA) would help strengthen that section.  The article already notes that SIAs are performed as a part of EIS, but it didn't note that under NEPA, federal agencies must perform EISs or face legal action.    
Interorganizational Committee on Guidelines and Principles for Social Impact Assessments and the International Association for Impact Assessment (IAIA) would be good sources for future article expansion.

message: I think that there is value in discussing the role of SIA in private enterprise development as opposed to donor based development.

Talk:Environmental sociology

message: I would argue that environmental sociology is a 'branch of sociology' rather than a 'branch of sociology (interdisciplinary)'. Perhaps a fine distinction, but from the beginning, environmental sociologists positioned themselves within and in dialog with the main stream of the discipline, calling for 'bringing the environment back in' to sociological theory and practice.

Talk:Ixtlilxochitl II

message: I've undone the addition that stated Ixtlilxochitl II was the "first Mexican" to be baptised. Usage of the term "Mexican" appearing here is a little ambiguous and ahistorical, so can't be sure in what sense this statement is made; but either way there were baptisms of indigenous New World people before this.
For example, the two Maya interpreters captured on the 1517 Cordoba expedition at Cabo Catoche in Yucatan—Julian and Melchior—were baptised on their return to Hispaniola. Another indio was captured by the 1518 Grijalva expedition in Tabasco, to be baptised Francisco. And then when Cortes finally arrives on the Gulf Coast in 1519, shortly after his landing at Santa Maria de la Victoria the 20 or so indio women who had been given to them (including La Malinche) were "immediately baptised". All this long before Cortes occupied Texcoco in 1520 and set up Ixtlilxochitl II as proxy ruler.
If by "Mexican" the ethnonym Mexica is meant, then that would not be accurate either, since Ixtlilxochitl was a native of Texcoco and therefore Acolhuan by identity/ethnicity, not Mexica. --cjllw ʘ TALK 00:41, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Diamonds from Sierra Leone

message: Because, like, only conflict diamonds are mined by underpaid, suffering workers and child labor. Those regular diamonds that "wealthy Europeans" wear (of course Europeans, never, ever hip-hop stars blinging it to the max! That would probably be racist or something) wear re totally guilt free, because the workers are all well-paid, comfortable and live in peace, harmony and plenty. 
This is like a song written by someone who watched a news article, didn't get the actual point, and then went and made a video about it to gain "credibility" among other people who knew even less than he did. But as long as the diamonds are being used to fund WARS, then there is no problem any more, and rappers...er, "wealthy Europeans"....can drape themselves with as many as they like. Let's just not look at the gold mining industry while we're at it. When is Kanye going to donate his millions to help poor people in Africa? We're still waiting on Clooney and DiCaprio and all the other rich, entitled hypocrites. "Conflict diamonds" are just a distraction to keep people from paying attention to the rest of the industry, and to give the big diamond cartels an excuse to solidify the entire trade in their own hands. Don't like competition? Go to the UN and come up with a big sob story about how the competition is using "funding illegal wars" (whatever those may be) and causing death and suffering, and get them all shut down.

message: Courtney Pine was interviewed on the Radio 4 programme Front Row earlier this evening. The interviewer (Kirsty Lang) referred to the former inclusion of Pine's appearance in the "Silver Nemesis" serial of 1988.

However, imdb lists Pine as 'Himself' in the cast list for episode one, and other sites confirm this is not an error. Despite some editors thoroughness on listing Who appearances, I do not consider this a relevant inclusion here. It is in the article on the serial, which is where it is surely more relevant.

Talk:Coal dust

message: Despite this article's assertions, I can't find any good sourcing for "coal dust" as a term applied to the deliberate manufacture of powdered coal.  Now "pulverised coal" has plenty of uses as a fuel, and "coal dust" has the well-known hazards of both explosion and respiratory problems. But I can't find serious sources discussing these two very separate situations using the same term of "dust" for both.
Should we thus split the coverage of the article more clearly?  Keep "coal dust" here and describe just the accidentally-formed, generally-problematic form; whilst also writing an article at pulverized coal on its deliberate manufacture and use as a fuel?

Talk:Bass reflex

message: Merge with loudspeaker enclosure ?--Light current 09:52, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

message: "Because of the complex frequency dependent loading, ported enclosures generally result in poorer transient response at low frequencies than in well-designed sealed box systems. Whether or not the effects of this in a properly designed system are audible are debatable."
I was surprised by this, as I've always thought it noticeable. Because bass reflexes produce resonant bass from the port, this has 2 noticeable effects:
* Firstly resonance takes time to build up, thus the low bass is always time lagged
* Resonance also does not die down instantly, so the low bass does not have the tight temporal control that a closed box has, rather it is a wolly vague soft and ill timed thing. Sounds fine for easy listening but performs poorly for 'harder' music.

replies: text: Tyrerj is correct, this article is completely wrong, total BS, and the idea that a human can hear the "time delay of the buildup of resonance" is ridiculous (because a musical note is a resonance, and without the "buildup", which also needs to occur on your eardrum, the ear would not hear a note). In a properly functioning bass reflex system, the resonant frequency of the enclosure/port needs to be matched to the resonant frequency of the loudspeaker driver itself: in this way the free space resonant peak of the driver--which in an infinite baffle would create louder emphasis/boominess at that frequency--gets tamed, actually decreased, due to impedance matching (and correspondingly correcting the electrical impedance at that range of frequencies) https://web.archive.org/web/20000530234216/https://hometheaterhifi.com/volume_5_2/cmilleressayporting.html 98.7.192.88 (talk) 23:50, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

message: I was there.  I was 10 years old and staying on the shore of Lake Michigan at my Grandpa's Cottage.  We were in Michigan approximately 6 - 7 miles North of South Haven and 1 mile South of Glenn.  It seemed to be the flight pattern for most jets across the Lake to O'Hare or Midway in Chicago from the East Coast.  I loved Airplanes so I watched them frequently.  My grandpa had an old shortwave radio so I often listened to the radio communicatons from air to tower as well.  I heard the pilot that night and saw the plane.  I thought that it was way to low as it roared over.  I could see the bottom of the plane!!  We never saw the plane that close, nor could we hear one that loud!  It was dark, but I could see it!! I yelled at grandpa that it was going to crash and about that time, just over the horizon a I heard a huge boom and enormous ball of fire lit up the night sky.  I knew it crashed!!  I made grandpa call the local police and tell them!  Nobody would ever listen to me, however.  Perhaps if they had, they would have known the aircraft was definitely flying way too low before it crashed.
