Talk:Robert LeFevre

message: Any clearer info on the end of Rampart College/Freedom School?  I got his "Fundamentals of Liberty", which indicate the two were moved to California in 1965 after a flood devestated the Colorado campus, and that LeFevre stepped down as President of Rampart College in 1973, which is after the 1968 'ending' of the schools.  Also, it appears that Rampart Institute still existes, and during the 80s was still publishing.  --Emb021 (talk) 13:42, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Was Charles Koch a graduate of Freedom School?  He is listed as one of the "notable graduates".
He's notable of course, but his page on the wikipedia says that all his training was at MIT.  Maybe he just financed Freedom School?  I don't want to edit the article myself because i'm not familiar enough with either Koch or LeFevre to know the answer for sure, but somebody in the know please resolve the discrepancy here.

thread_title: Did Charles Koch graduate from Freedom School?

message: I notice the only quotes in the section on pacifism come, not from LeFevre himself, but from Brian Doherty's "freewheeling history".  They are quite sarcastic in tone, and there is no reason to suspect they are an accurate portrayal of LeFevre's views.  (Did LeFevre actually say that it would be a violation of property rights to destroy a kidnapper's bonds?  Or is that just Doherty's caricature of LeFevre's position?)  As it is, this section contains much about Doherty's opinion of LeFevre's pacifism, and nothing about LeFevre's actual views.  I suggest the section be removed unless someone can provide us with quotes from LeFevre himself, or at the very least find a more objective secondary source.

thread_title: Shortening article

message: Dear fellow page editors,
The infobox for this article contains an image that appears to have been colourised and edited from an original black-and-white image. While it looks like colourised images are permitted to exist in Wikimedia Commons (see Commons:Colorization), I do not believe it is appropriate to use such an image in a factual Wikipedia article, especially in this case, where it has been used to illustrate a real, historical person (who is the main subject of the article). Isn't the process of colourising historical photographs considered by many to be controversial? Presumably it makes unverifiable and inappropriate assumptions about the appearance of the subject. Furthermore, the supposed copyright status of this image is dubious, given that the colourisation and editing is likely to have been carried out recently. For these reasons, I tried to remove this image twice from the page, but my edits were reverted without explanation. Therefore, I would appreciate it if other editors could share their opinions on the use of the image, especially those who oppose the removal of the image. Many thanks,

Talk:Bachelor of Computing

message: "Bachelor of Computing (B.Comp) is a bachelor's degree in Computing. This degree is offered only in some universities, and is slightly, but significantly, different than a B.Sc. in Computer Science or a B.CS..
:The following definition of Computing is given in the ACM report Computing As a Discipline:
:The discipline of computing is the systematic study of algorithmic processes that describe and transform information: their theory, analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, and application. The fundamental question underlying all the computing is 'What can be (efficiently) automated?' "
*How is any different than B.CS.?  Throughout my four years at University of Waterloo's Bachelor of Computer Science program, we did exactly what the ACM report covers.  Programming design theory, analysis, and implementation.  Here's a citation of a definition of a B.CS. program:
::Computer Science is centred around the study of information. It is concerned with the nature and properties of information, its structure and classification, its storage and retrieval, and the various types of processing to which it can be subjected. It is also concerned with the physical machines that perform these operations, with the elemental units of which these machines are composed, with the organization of these units into efficient information processing systems, and with the exploration of the limits of the abilities of these machines.  From UWaterloo CS Degree Page
:Also, I still cannot find a university that list Bachelor of Computing (B.Comp)  as a degree that they offer, can anyone show a list of which schools offer such a degree, or else I would recommend a merge between this and   B.CS..--AlphaTwo 19:54, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: However the foreign wikipedia may lack an article on "Galician gaita" but have one on "gaita", in which case it is definitely better to have a link to the latter than no link at all.  In fact, since this article was recently moved from "gaita" to "Galician gaita", it is quite likely that the foreign "gaita" articles are in fact about the Galician one, so the links are actually correct.

Talk:Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

message: I actualy have a question about the big bad voodoo daddy connection with the cherry poppin' daddies, ive looked up quite a fwe differant song and each time they come up with alot of the same things.
* I don't think there is a direct connection.  They may have toured or played together, and there certainly has been some compilation swing albums with both, but as far as I know there's no overlap in membership or songs.  Both bands started about the same time in two different places (California and Oregon, respectively).  BBVD mainly plays classic big-band music in addition to originals written by Scotty Morris.  CPD, on the other hand, is more of a punk band (or punk/rock/ska/swing/funk/r&b/fusion), and Steve Perry (not the Journey guy) writes most of their music. —TheMuuj Talk 04:47, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

First of all, after taking time to work on each album's Wikipedia article, I realized that there was a trampoline without a jumper or anywhere to jump to.  Basically, we bought a concrete trampoline and our children will never forgive us... Anyways, I think that it would be best to either consolidate the articles into a discography page (or maybe just add a discography page as well; they have eight albums), or add to them.  If you have ideas, please reply at my talk page.  Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a concrete trampoline to throw out.

Talk:Non-adjacent form

message: The paragraph on alternating signs is not correct. Just consider the binary representation of decimal 9, being 1001, which is its unique NAF form.
It is however correct that the Booth Algorithm determines a signed digit representation where the signs of the non-zero digits alternate.
BUT the Booth algorithm does not generate a NAF representation! Take as an example a binary string with an isolated 1, say ...00100..., which by the Booth Algorithm converts into ...01\bar1...
The original algorithm for converting a binary number into its equivalent and unique NAF form was given by Reitwiesner in 1960, but normally it is described by the following right-to-left algorithm:
Input: b_{n-1}\cdots b_1b_0 in 2's complement
Output: e_n e_{n-1}\cdots e_1 e_0
c_0:=0;\ b_{n+1}:=b_n:=b_{n-1};
for i:=0 to n do
  c_{i+1}:=\lfloor(c_i+b_i+b_{i+1})/2\rfloor;
  e_i:=c_i+b_i-2c_{i+1};
end

thread_title: Alternating signs paragraph

message: The article currently states that "[b]cause every non-zero value has to be adjacent to two 0's, the NAF representation can be implemented such that it only takes a maximum of m + 1 bits for a value that would normally be represented in binary with m bits."

thread_title:  Encoding the NAF of an m-bit number using m+1 bits 

message: While correcly labeling binary and NAF digits for one NAF digit more, it is not striking because zm − 2 is dropped. Also, how to show the zeroes?
    Input    E =    (em−1 em − 2 … e3 e2 e1 e0)2
    Output   Z = (zm zm−1 zm − 2 …  0 z2  0 z0)NAF
is intuitive, but flawed: z2 may be 0, allowing z3 to be non-zero.

Whilst I agree the policy of Wiki is one of neutrality with the history we have in Derby over the way St. Helen's House had been seriously neglected by certain bodies for well over 25 years it will be very difficult to find anything in print that shows an angle of care from these same public bodies on what is after all a very fine Grade I listed building.
