Talk:Cape Scott

message: Cape Scott, the northern tip of Vancouver Island, is the smaller of the two geographical features, but it is far more well-known, is a relevant human cultural feature due to its effects in history, its ongoing economic importance in shipping and fishing industries, its importance as a eco-tourism attraction/destination. Conversely, the Antarctic geofeature is of passing interest as a scientific fact. - 207.102.203.184 (talk) 16:03, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

*Also, a Google search for "Graham Johnson III" yields only one result -- this article.  If he was a real person, he was not noteworthy.

message: Just from observation of the Australian Geographic map of Antarctica of 1993, the Horlick Mountains are on the 'eastern' edge of West Antarctica and the Queen Maud Mountains on the 'western' edge of East Antarctica, with Reedy Glacier between. So it sounds to me like you've copied the info from Encyclopaedia Britannica which makes the same statement. It looks like Horlick are West, Queen Maud east. Could someone check?

Talk:God Was Born in Exile

message: Though I mentioned Marguerite Yourcenar's Mémoires d'Hadrien and made a few other translations, this is basically just a translation from the French article. Yes, it was written like that in French -- I'm not a literary scholar, so I'll admit that the final, big paragraph is a bit dense. I imagine that if somone read the French language article linked to at the bottom of the article, he or she would be able to write a much better article on this book. I've never read Dieu est né en exil, in fact, before translating this article, I'd never even heard of it.

Talk:Kip (unit)

message: i removed many of the following links, but since Gene Nygaard makes reference to them in his arguments above, i thought it best to preserve them here
*Kip in the context of physics in the British engineering system
*Common conversion factors for kip
*Kip in other countries
*NIST Guide for the Use of the International System of Units (SI), Appendix B:  Conversion Factors This only lists kip as a unit of force, not as a unit of mass.  Contrast that with the use of "pound" and "pound-force" in this table, where the distinction is clearly maintained in both their names and their symbols.
--barneca (talk) 01:30, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  removed external links, refered to above 

message: As the article says, one U.S. kip = 1000 pound-force.  I'd venture to say, yes, uncommon to refer to a kip in pound-mass in published works. However, on the casual side of things, like among working peers, it is far more common to use them interchangeably. 
Consider that in this non absolute pound-force/pound-mass system, one pound-mass = one pound-force with the magic Gee-Sub-See (gc) correcting the fundamental units in force and mass when you apply it to your working equations on paper.  So in communicating with people who understand this system, it is easy to use pound-force and pound-mass interchangeably. 
I guess just like everyone who reports their "weight" in "mass" units in many countries (e.g. something weighs 70 kilograms).   Here, you'd hope, everyone understands what they are really talking about is a non absoulte system of "kilograms-force" for their weight simplified by saying just, "kilograms".  Same goes for pounds too.  
And even a level beyond that are equations, mostly in-house kind, that have been simplified by capitalizing on the fact that in this system you have mass proportional to force. But they will leave your head scratching if you try to use an absolute SI system of units on them. 
For what it's worth...

message: It appears that the Alpine Fault and the Macquarie Fault Zone are extensions of each other, i.e. two different names for the same fault zone.  Comment? --Bejnar (talk) 00:20, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: They're always described separately. The Macquarie Fault Zone originated as a spreading centre and is entirely within oceanic crust, whereas the Alpine Fault is within continental crust. It's not unusual for a plate boundaries to be given different names as the character changes along their lengths - mid-oceanic ridges do it all the time, e.g. the Reykjanes Ridge and the Kolbeinsey Ridge. Mikenorton (talk) 06:49, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Urysohn and completely Hausdorff spaces

message: I removed the "clarification needed" template next to "completely Hausdorff space", which stated:
should this really be completely Hausdorff space? if so, a word about terminology would be appropriate to clarify why an adverb is used instead of an adjective, as would normally occur in English--it is as though Hausdorff was a verb rather than an adjective??
This doesn't make sense. Hausdorff is an adjective, and completely is an adverb that modifies the adjective, as normally occurs in English...

Talk:Hundredweight

message: Any source for the introduction-date claim in "a hundredweight is defined as 100 pounds. This equals 45.359 kg. This unit was introduced in the late 1800s."? 
I'd suggest that it was much earlier (by centuries), will look for more on that.  Didn't the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824 have something to do with the virtual disappearance from this short hundredweight from British usage? Gene Nygaard 10:08, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Introduction date

message: The entry for 'hundred' in R.E.Zupko "A dictionary of Weights and Measures for the British Islands" gives hundredweight under the entry of 'hundred'.  One finds 100, C, used indifferently for cwt, eg a quote under 'wey' gives the wey as 300 li (ie lb), each C being v score xii, that is, 336 lbs.  C of six scores (eg xi xx) are also used.
The practice is that a cwt. is a hundred pounds, according to the meanings of 'hundred' and 'weight', although the cwt might not be a hundred.
100 lbs corresponds to the new style or short hundred of five scores.
108 lbs corresponds to 100 lb of the french livre.
120 lbs corresponds to what Gwilt calls the 'long hundred weight' (three words), being the weight of a long-hundred of pounds.  Such was used for things like iron.
A cwt of 112 lbs suggests a pound of either 9800 or 6533 grains troy (according to the value of hundred).  Alternately, given that a clove is a sixteenth (as 16 clavis (fingers) make the foot in roman practice), the notion is that 120 is rounded down to 112 to make the clove an integer number of pounds.
In the Germany, in the period before metric, a ton of 2240 lbs or 1120 kg was also known, which divides as follows: (the corresponding cwt or zentner is 56 kg)
  56 kg = 100 * 560.02 grams  (Austrian pounds)
        = 112 * 500.00 grams  (Metric pounds)
        = 120 * 466.711 grams (Prussian pound)
   a gram is 15.43236 grains (troy).

#Is it a rudimentary ovary with germ cells?

#That even makes eggs? Is such a frog now a fertile female?
#What is the putative function in nature?
#Can it become functional under any natural circumstances?
#Some fish can change sex in certain natural circumstances. In some reptiles I think a difference in incubation temperature determines which gonads (male or female) develop? Does a similar phenomenon happen in these frogs?

However I can't fix the link because this doesn't seem to fit any of the three meanings of bisexual from Bisexual (disambiguation): bisexuality (sexual orientation), botany (not a plant), or biology (a species which has two different sexes, such as humans).
