Talk:Palais Strousberg/Archive

message: Sein Palais an der Wilhelmstraße hatte Strousberg bereits 1875 aufgeben müssen, das Grundstück mit dem Palais gerieten in die Konkursmasse. 
:Its palace at the William route had already had to give up to Strousberg 1875, property with the palace turned out into the bankrupt's estate.
Am 20. März 1876 ersteigerte bei der Auktion Fürst Hugo zu Hohenlohe-Öhringen als Mindestbieter das Palais. Der General und erbliche Mitglied des Preußischen Herrenhauses bewohnte das Palais jedoch nicht selber. Das Berliner Adressbuch von 1877 verzeichnet neben dem Haushofmeister und dem Portier das Büreau der Englischen Botschaft und Lord [Odo] Russell, Englischer Botschafter als Mieter.Berliner Adressbuch 1876, Häuserverzeichnis nach Straßen. Damit begann die jahrzehntelange Nutzung des repräsentative Palais in bester Lage als Britische Botschaft. Der Fürst verkaufte schließlich die Liegenschaft am 18. Dezember 1884 den Commissioners of Her Britanic Majestys Works and Public Buildings. Beim anschließenden Umbau, wiederum nach Plänen August Orths, wurde anstelle einer offenen Terrasse und eines Teils des Gartens ein Anbau mit großem Festsaal errichtet, der die beiden Seitenflügel des Palais verband und so eine bessere Nutzung bei gesellschaftlichen Anlässen mit bis zu 600 Gästen erlaubte. 
On the March 20, 1876 the palace was sold to Prince Hugo zu Hohenlohe-Öhringen. However, the general and hereditary member of the Prussian parliament did not occupy the building. An 1877 directory of Berlin's buildings listed the building rented to The office of the British embassyBüreau [sic] der Englischen Botschaft and the occupant as the British ambassador, Lord Odo Russell.Berliner Adressbuch 1876, Häuserverzeichnis nach Straßen This began the buildings use for many decades as the British embassy. The prince sold the property on December 18, 1884 to the Comissioners of Her Britanic Majesty's Works and Public Buildings.
With the following change, again after plans August Orths, was built in place of an open terrace and a part of the garden a cultivation with large festival room, which connected the two wings of the palace and with social causes with up to 600 guests permitted so a better use.

message: I just would like to point out that the user "JanSuchy" has been systematically trying to collect any negative information he is able to find about this company for about 1.5 months and has been eagerly inserting it in articles in this and other wikipedias. Such a negative eagerness is not normal, most other firms do not receive such a "special treatment" here. He is obviously being paid or has some other very strong motivation for goofing on this firm, so I call upon the admins to do something about that, otherwise this is a very clear case for a court.
:After reading an article  by Jan Sůra in Mladá Fronta Dnes, I opened a SkyEurope page in Wikipedia to get more info. As the articles on English and other Wikipedias resembled Press Releases, I added more info. As positive info was already there, most of thre sentences I have added were negative.

Talk:Edwin Hallowell

message: Does all the information in this biography refer to the same man?  19 years is awfully young to be a lieutenant colonel; in fact, this article has him commanding the regiment at 19 after Shaw's death.  The Congressional biography from which all the non-CW facts are taken makes no mention of his activities during the war.  It describes a man born in Pennsylvania who was involved in Pennsylvanian politics.  But the Hallowell during the Civil War served in a Massachusetts regiment.  Also, and this is a smaller point, the Congressman was a Democrat; somebody who fought for the Union and was abolitionist enough to be made a high-ranking officer in an experimental black regiment would (you'd think) be much more likely to be a Republican in that period. 69.227.126.47 14:33, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: At the present state, the article claims the following : [collembola] can catapult themselves in a random direction by releasing two tail-like "spring" projections (furcula) located on abdomen segment IV.
"Random direction" may be a poor descriptor of this behaviour. Field studies have shown that the snow flea species observed were highly directional in their jumping behaviour and were also able to navigate by using the sun as a compass.
Source : Hagvar, S. 2000. Navigation and behaviour of four Collembola species migrating on the snow surface. Pedobiologia 44:221-233.
Based on this, I propose that the sentence which suggests that their jumping is directionally random is modified so that this is no longer the case.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Toremag (talk • contribs) 14:30, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

message: Had a question regarding the vote totals of the 1984 results listed in the table.
Incumbent Lyle Williams is listed as having 105,449, which certainly makes sense, given he's an incumbent, but doesn't match the total vote count in the FEC's document of 1984 Federal Election Results (Page 98 of the following link: https://www.fec.gov/resources/cms-content/documents/federalelections84.pdf)
The results listed in the FEC reports are no doubt wrong - the vote totals add up not to 230,661 total, but to 174,147, whereas the numbers listed on this page do add up to the total vote count listed on the FEC document. Traficant's total vote count is the same both on this page and in the document.
I don't doubt the validity of the numbers here, but I'm wondering where Lyle Williams' correct vote total was found. I've personally tried to dig up the numbers myself, but have not had luck yet.
