Talk:Dessert spoon

message: OK, I'm confused. As a unit of measurement, it seems a lot of cooking references (at least on the web) convert 1 dessertspoon to 10 ml, or 2 US teaspoons. However, Google's calculator function converts 1 Imperial dessertspoon (is there any other? I'm not aware of any US measurements called that) to 11.84 ml, or 2.4 US teaspoons. I'd think a 20% variation is pretty significant. Why is Google different? Where did they get their numbers?
:Meanwhile, GourmetShopper Australia says a British tablespoon is 3 tsp / 14.8ml -- which would make it basically equivalent to a US tablespoon at 15ml -- and is equal to an Australian dessertspoon, where an Australian dessertspoon is 4 tsp / 20 ml. Chronodm (talk) 20:40, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It was the Australian tablespoon that was 20 ml.  This corresponds to the old English tablespoon ( = 2 dessertspoons in older recipes).  The modern English dessertspoon (10-15 ml) seems to be confused in modern usage with the older, but now little-used tablespoon because the Americans seem to use the term tablespoon for this size.  There are no international standards, and local standards vary according to who set them and when they were set.  Dbfirs 12:26, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

text: In UK tradition, your description of the Italian spoon with a rounded (or sometimes angled) bowl sounds like a fruit spoon.  A soup spoon in the UK is normally much larger, but round.  There doesn't seem to be any international standard on cutlery, just local traditions.  Dbfirs 12:17, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

message: "It is commonly but not exclusively used in eating desserts, since a teaspoon may also be used for this."
Miss Manners would seem to disagree with that statement: "Miss Manners will overlook the substitution of a salad fork for a dessert fork, provided you do not try to pass off a teaspoon as a dessert spoon. Where that habit came from she cannot imagine, but a dessert spoon must be larger, and the only passable substitution would be an oval soup spoon."

Talk:Bishari tribe

message: I've had the page Bisharin tribe moved to Bishari tribe. In the reasons for the move, I gave the reason, & said I'd list contemporary academic sources that use either Bishari or the Beja spelling Bishaari. I have only listed sources in which "Bishari" or "Bishaari" occurs within English text: Not older grammars and dictionaries that note the autochthonous term. I have marked with an asterisk afterward works in which both "Bishari" and "Bishariyyin" appear.

message: Here is the text from the Italian version: 
:Noto già in un documento del 937 secolo come Palode, relativo alla sua vendita assieme ad altri territori al prete Roprando, da parte del marchese Ildeprando (vendita fittizia orchestrata dalla moglie del marchese allo scopo di impedire che tali territori passassero in eredità ai parenti di lui). Giunto in possesso ai marchesi di Gavi, fu da questi assegnato al monastero di Castiglione. Fortificato intorno al 1128 (castrum palodii), fu venduto a Genova, dopo la liberazione del marchese Alberto di Parodi, grazie all'intervento dei Genovesi, tenuto prigioniero dai signori di Castelletto. Da questo momento seguì le sorti della Repubblica di Genova. Nel 1945 fu oggetto di una rappresaglia nazifascista, a causa degli attacchi partigiani nella zona, con l'incendio di numerose case e del municipio.
I took it to an online translator and used my Spanish abilities to try to fill in the blanks. I don't think I did  a very good job, though. If any Italian speaker here wants to translate it, please do. I've been told Internet translators are terrible. -- Andrew Parodi 15:18, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Ore condition

message: There is PlanetMath content for this, but spread over several pages. I think it should be an integrated discussion, here. Charles Matthews 11:29, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm afraid the article at the moment contains a couple of mistakes.  I checked out both the Planet Math first reference, and P. M. Cohns book Skew fields
#The right and left Ore conditions are reversed, compared to the use in either of the sources (which also happens to be the way I remember it).  In other words, "left" and "right" should be interchanged in the article.
#Either Ore condition is equivalent to the existence of a very special kind of embedding into a division ring, the (right or left) classical ring of quotient.  However, a general subring R of a division ring D may fail to fulfil one or both of the Ore conditions.  As an example of the latter (due to P. M. Cohn, 1971), consider a "non commutative polynomial ring" R = k<x,y> in two variables over a (commutative) field; in other words, R is the monoid algebra over k with respect to the free monoid on two generators x and y.  It is not very hard to see that R does not fulfil either Ore condition; but by Cohn's result, it is indeed isomorphic to a subring of a certain division ring.
I'll see if I can add this example, and an example of a ring fulfilling just one of the Ore conditions, to the article, sometime in the future; right now, I'll just correct the errors in the most simple manner.--JoergenB (talk) 19:18, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Pryor to seeing thins article I like many only knew this type of style as a skateboarder or surfer cut depending on where you lived.

Then you were, of cource, labeled a poser :P. Matter of fact everytime I'd go to the stylist they respond "Oh, you want a surfer cut" or "Are you talking about a skateboarder cut".

thread_title: External links

message: (paraphrasing) which I removed.  I question his veracity on this point.
From what I can read of his credits he has written little about videography but more about television.  I am also aware of TV history and the "vid" of Philo T. Farnsworth who (at age 11) saw the rows of corn on his farm as akin to the scan lines of a proposed electronic TV system and then converted his vid into mathematics and presented them to his school math teacher.  
Farnsworth's 165 TV patents were interferred for years by RCA until they just lapsed.  He made very little money out of his ground breaking work in the algorithms and science from which modern TV evolved.  His competitors used bureacracy and the courts to stifle his contribution.  I feel much the same is going on today at Wikipedia. 
In a personal note I have been told from Wikipedia to go play in the "sandbox".  To me Wikipedia Is the sandbox.  The roots definition of vid and videography will prevail and the public is already "getting it".  
I also note that according to Wikipedia's Vanity rules, Sir Isaac Newton would not have been allowed to refer to his "The Principia: Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy".  Lucky that the rules of print vanity (in the early days of printing technology) were not so restrictive as Wikipedia's Vanity laws in these digital days.
The conflict before us is whether the definition should be provincial or providential . . . that's with a small P.
