Talk:Frankie Stewart Silver

message: I have additional, although somewhat one-sided info about Frankie Stewart Silver's 
escape from jail. It involves my Parker family.
My great great grandfather's older sister, Rebecah Parker, had a son by an unknown father. His name was Thelston or Felston Parker. He went by his mother's maiden name, for his surname. In a series of one sided letters sent from George Adolphus Parker to Lily Doyle Dunlap, it apoears that Thelston Parker was responsible for helping Frankie to escape from jail on a borrowed horse. He was not caught, and went to stay with his aunt, Penelope Parker Martin to hide from the law.
Evidently he and his mother were either friends or family of Frankie, and felt she was not guilty of the crime she was accused of, or at least had just cause for her action. It appears a small black boy at a cotton mill spilled the beans, so to speak about this
activity.  Poetree1948 (talk) 15:59, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

thread_title: Move notification

message: In the main article is said Fratar (Friar) Julian heard in Itil Bulgarian capital Bilär, the nearest Hungarians who stayded in Hungaria magna when the main population started their wandering, are found only behind two days riding journey direct to the east. Interestingly they were said to be cattle traders who live in cattle trading post. When looking to topographic 1:200.000 Mapbook "Respublika Tatarstan" (no ISBN number) one finds on map 41 on the banks of Aktaj River Bazarnyje Mataki (Vasarhely Matzcak) just two days ride out of Bilär, which itself seems to have been presumably named by the Hungarians Fehervar, which in turn is Plano Carpini´s Byleri (Vyleri) and Bolghari Bilär. Bazarnyje Mataki is not far away of well known Bolshoi (Nagy) Tigan (Tihany). I am just suprised that this linguistical connection has not been mentioned. In this area are still more than 100 villages which still are named after the ancient Hungarian tribes.
Despite Professor Mirfatykh Z. Zakijev´s doubts that the Hungaria magna has never existed and the Hungarian tribes never settled in the area, Finland´s Academia Professor Leena Palotie,  made an interesting discovery in 2005. She managed to trace the origin of Lactose intolerance to the southern slopes of Ural, in present day Respublika Boshkortostan the base of their urheimat (basic homearea). This gene mutation happened circa 4.600 to 2.800 BC. A total of 37 per cent of Hungarians suffer of Lactoce intolerance. This combined to Fratar (Friar) Julian´s story gives some thinking to main stream of historians.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.114.204.159 (talk) 13:34, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Cheap plastic 

message: TayshaunPrince24 has been adding text about Poland Spring's environmental record. I've removed this text for three reasons. First, the text is copy/pasted directly from the articles that are referenced, which is unacceptable around here. Second, some of the text comes off as sounding very advert-like. Third, the text added is largely redundant. The Eco-shape stuff is already covered by the end of the Water sales section; the Fryeburg text is covered by the Controversy section. Maybe if the text is rewritten it can be included, but most certainly not in the way it was. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 20:23, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm sure Red Island, NL, isn't the only other Red Island in the world. Perhaps there should be a disambiguation page for "Red Island"?

thread_title:  Merge with [[Red Island Placentia, Newfoundland and Labrador]] 

message: I would concur with the suggestion to merge the "Red Island Placentia" entry with the "Red Island" one.
My "credentials" for making this suggestion is that several generations of my Mother's family lived on Red Island before the relocations of the 1960's, and although I have lived elsewhere for a number of decades, I continue to spend a portion of my annual vacation in that area, partly for the purpose of visiting relatives who still live there.
To my knowledge, the three-word term "Red Island Placentia" has never been used to describe the island, although it was typically (including postally) referred to as "Red Island, Placentia Bay", using a format common to many other communities in the large bays that ring the coast of Newfoundland.

Talk:Gaius Bruttius Praesens (consul 153)

message: This article probably needs to be completely rewritten. For one thing, his full name as given in this article is different than the one Alföldi gives -- L. Fulvius [...] C. Bruttius Praesens Min[...] [Lab]erius Maxmus Pompeius L[...] Valens Cornelius Proculus [...] Aquilius Veiento (Konsulat und Senatorenstand unter der Antoninen (1977), p. 162 n. 93) -- which is based on an incomplete inscription, , which is our major source for his career. Another point is that the possibility that Bruttius Praesens was proconsul of Africa is based on a damaged portion of this same inscription, which reads pr[...]: although some experts read a third letter, thus pro[...], which indicates the office of proconsul, there is no evidence that he was proconsul of Africa, or Asia, or simply pr[aef. urbi], e.g. Urban prefect (Alföldi, Konsulat und Senatorenstand, pp. 379-81). And lastly, the citation of authorities is, to put it kindly, rather loose; doubtless Syme researched this twice consul, but the one article cited, "An Eccentric Patrician", is primarily about another consular Senator, M'. Acilius Glabrio Cn. Cornelius Severus. -- llywrch (talk) 00:08, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: In the 2nd paragraph, the article states that "Federal regulations associated with the act [CPSA] are at Title 16 CFR parts 1101 through 1406.  These regulations... include... safety standards for such products as bicycles and..." so on.  The part on "Bicycles" is under 16 CFR 1512.  So, bicycles are actually under sub-chapter "C" of the regulation, regarding "Federal Hazardous Substances Act" of 1960 as amended by the "Child Protection Act" of 1966.  However, the CPSA does cover "bicycle helmets" or headgear (1203; all sizes), but for actual bicycles, only 3rd-party conformity assessments are covered (1112.15; not the safety standards/criteria).  
The FHSA/CPA regulation may place bicycles in the category of toys, (or other articles designed or intended primarily for use by children (12 years age or younger)), that present a mechanical hazard; (1500.3(a)(4)(I)(D)).  Bicycles fall in the category of "recreational equipment, such as roller blades, skateboards, bicycles, camping gear, and fitness equipment" and " are considered general use products unless they are sized to fit children 12 years of age or younger and/or are decorated with childish features by the manufacturer" (1200.2).  
So it may be easier to change "bicycles" to read "bicycle helmets" - or consider including the entire chapter (II) of 16 CFR, parts 1101 through 1750, including bicycles as well as refrigerator doors.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.183.224.2 (talk) 20:30, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

Category talk:Mountain lakes

message: The redundancy - and potential vastness - of this category struck me when I saw it on Capilano Lake, which is one of BC's estimated, oh, maybe 5,000 lakes or so (major ones).  Lakes in Switzerland and Norway are all also going to be all included, etc; there are already country/province/state lakes categories.  This one seems to be vaguely defined - Titicaca is high-altitude but is not a "mountain lake" in the way the term is usually meant....I read through Wikipedia:Categories for deletion and it said to query the category talk page so that's why I'm here.  I won't be around to follow through on this (I'm leaving wikipedia tomorrow because of life circumstances) but proposing it anyway; if all  notable mountain lakes were in this category it would be HUGE, even just those in BC, AK, WA, CA, Switzerland and so on....and would be redundant with those varoius "lakes in" categories.Skookum1 22:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
