Talk:Bérénice

message: A minor point, but imo not entirely irrelevant. Suetonius "single sentence" in the article, while faithful to Racine's Préface, is a cut-and-paste of two distinct passages in the Life of Titus (Ch. 7). First Suetonius mentions Titus' " passion for queen Berenice, to whom it was also said that he promised marriage" (reginae Berenices amorem, cui etiam nuptias pollicitus ferebatur). A few lines further Suetonius adds that Titus "dismissed Berenice from Rome right away, against her and his own will"."Berenicen statim ab urbe dimisit invitus invitam".

Talk:Kamichama Karin

message: "Karin's, Kazune's, and Himeka's hair grew considerably from when they first appeared to the second volume. Koge Donbo's reasons for doing this are unknown. It may be due to a time lapse. Also, the shine on Himeka's hair is on her bangs from chapters 1-3. From chapter 4 and up, her hair has the shine on the top and sides."
This whole hair thing is totally irrelevant. I think it should be removed. Their hair changing isn't a major point of the plot. >> Lea-chan (talk) 03:41, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

:Putting in for the Stab:
:The weed needs to be crushed up in a good weed grinder - a shark tooth aluminium one is preferable because it will collect the crystals, giving a better deal.
:Get a weed grinder and grind up as much as you fancy, put this on a flat surface (the back phone case for a nokia 3310 is a perfect example). Make a small ball out of baccy and put it in the end of the tube. Then 'stab up' the tube on the plate. Now roast the end of the tube with a lighter (preferably clipper).
:A shottie is also a term used to refer to blowing someone a hit using a blunt or a joint thought preferably a blunt.  This is done by having one person take thee blunt and place it backwards in his or her mouth so the lit part is inside and the blunt is held by the lips to create an air tight seal.  That person that lock hands with who ever is receiving the shottie so that the can inhale the smoke with minimal loss.  The person giving the shottie breathes out through the blunt cause a huge hit to go to who ever is receiving the shottie.  To increase the power of the shottie simply take a hold a hit in before placing the blunt backwards the mouth and exhale through it increasing the potency of the smoke received.

thread_title: Unprotect page?

message: It wasn't until after I meticulously hunted down the list and made it available here on the page did I realize that there was even a dispute over the copyright of it.
However, despite the possible legal disputes, I still believe that this list merits mentioning since the list itself can no longer be found on VH1's website.  I had to turn to blogs that had reprinted the list for the exact contents.  Furthermore, I feel that reproducing the list would prevent anyone from watching "I Love Toys".  The appeal of the show is the various comments, jokes, and insight provided by the commentators and celebrities.
In addition, the list also directs to corresponding Wiki pages for the franchises or specific toys in question.  This allows for those who watched the show to do further research via Wiki to learn more about the toys, their origins, their place in popular culture, and gain more of an insight as to how the pollers, statisticians, and historians came together to organize this list.  In the two to three years since this show premiered, I don't think reproducing the list would be issue of copyright or infringement on VH1

message: This article asserts that the first mention in sci-fi of a material that has monofilament-like properties is in Dune (1965):
:The prototype of Monomolecular wire is shigawire, as described in Frank Herbert's Dune novels. First making its appearance in Dune (1965)...
However, I was just reading "The Stainless Steel Rat"(1961) by Harry Harrison and came across this passage:
:...A shiny blob was fixed there, anchoring a strand so thin that it was invisible, yet I knew was as strong as a cable. The assassin had lowered himself with web spinner, a tiny device that spun a thin strand like a spider. Only the strand’s substance was formed of a single long-chain molecule that could support a man’s weight. It would slice my hands like the sharpest blade if I tried to slide down.
To me, this sounds like monomolecular wire.  I'm aware of WP:OR and I'm not trying to claim that Harry Harrison came up with the idea of monomolecular wire, but the claim that it was first used in sci-fi in 1965 by Frank Herbert seems incorrect. 87.113.149.111 (talk) 21:26, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

message: I don't even think that there is needed a reason for this. This article has nothing to do with mythology, it only describes myth units from the videogame Age of Mythology, and someone has apparently erronously believed that "prometheans" are some kind of mythical being. As far as I know, it's not, as I've never heard of anything similar. It would seem that the creators of the game created the beings themselves, as there simply are nothing called "prometheans", unless one wants to describe humans as "prometheans" as Prometheus was a "cultural hero" to the humans in the stories told about him.

* replying to unsigned comment from User:Pastorwayne : Maybe, but he was born in the USA, died in the USA, ordained in the USA, and the whole of his career as described in the article was based in the U.S.A.  He may have travelled too, in which case you could add something like "bishop in the USA who travelled on missions to Africa" (or wherever he went to!).  Even today, about 80% of U.M. church members are in the U.S.A., so I don't think it is misleading to describe a 19th century American bishop as being in the USA ... but maybe it would be more comfortable for you if we used the adjective "Ameeican" rather than saying in the USA?  In the hope that resolves things, I have reinstated the national link by putting the word "American" in there, so that the reader can tell from the first sentence that this is not, for example, a methodist from England.
