Talk:Sam Hill (euphemism)

message: I'm not if there is connection between the words and the person but Sam L. Hill operated a hardware store in the territorial capitol of Arizona, Prescott. The building still stands today and is owned by Prescott College. here is a link http://hcap.dlconsulting.com/cgi-bin/library?a=d&d=p1356 . It would be interesting to research this connection more since Sam L. Hill would have been a key figure for a lot of westerns lives. What in the sam hill is that? could be a reference to his hardware store which would have sold a wide variety of items.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.209.173.67 (talk) 20:24, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  What in Satan's Hell? 

message: Midwesterner here - A friend of mine says "What in the Sam Cooke" and I understand her to be an African American woman with Southern roots, so her family moved to Indianapolis in the 1950s.  I still know her so maybe I'll ask.  Just today I googled the phrase using quotes, and I found at least two other completely independent uses, both made by African American Southerners.  What I think this suggests is that the use of Sam Hill points to the South instead of the West.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by MicheleFloyd (talk • contribs) 18:45, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Charles River Laboratories

message: "Charles River Laboratories has been scrutinized for how its suppliers treat animals before. The company is currently under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service over its shipment of monkeys from Cambodia, which it suspended in February 2023 after links to a smuggling ring were revealed. 
In South Carolina, fishermen supplying crabs to the company were repeatedly caught taking horseshoe crabs from off-limits islands along the coast and inside a national wildlife refuge. After two environmental groups sued the company and the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources in 2022 for allowing horseshoe crabs to be kept away from the birds in secluded holding ponds, the agency asked the court to allow it to keep details about the industry confidential in the court documents."

Talk:Symphony No. 4 (Vaughan Williams)

message: I agree that a citation is needed for the Goldsmith interview, but the transcription has vanished from the Internet.  I think it was a BBC interview, but it has been a couple of years, so I could be wrong about that.  The nearest I can find is http://198.63.35.24/goldsmith/startrek.pdf, page 5, in which James Cameron notes the same similarity and the author says "Goldsmith said publicly that it was his 'Vaughan-Williams score'".  This quote comes from the same interview that I can no longer find. Symphony_Girl 71.252.152.7 12:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

The Po-faced need not read the Trivia section.  Those seeking information might well wish to do so.  One could argue, and I would, that none of the information in this Trivia section is trivial, and a change of title (or application by its critic of a less paralytic sphincter) would suffice.

Talk:Clement of Ireland

message: I got to this page from a link in the following paragraph in the Soissons article:
:In 744 the Synod of Soissons met at the instigation of Pippin III, and Saint Boniface, the Pope's missionary to pagan Germany, secured the condemnation of the Frankish bishop Adalbert and the Irish missionary Clement.
The Clement referred to in the Soissons article appears to be the same Clement discussed in the last paragraph of this article; however, the rest of this article discusses a Clement who was born circa 750 and died in 818. How can a person born in 750 have been condemned by the Synod of Soissons in 744? And how can a person born in 750 have been the subject of a letter from Boniface written in 745?
The last paragraph of this article should probably be deleted. -- Bob (Bob99 (talk) 14:36, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

Category talk:Web security exploits

message: The term "exploit" has a very specific meaning in computer security.  It is a crafted application input which causes a system to fail in an undesireable manner (for the programmer; desireable for the attacker).  A vulnerability, such as HTTP Response Splitting (or others listed in this category) are software bugs which ALLOW an exploit to work.  Vulnerabilities and exploits are not the same thing.  Many people get these mixed up, and is very confusing for security newbies.  Things which do belong in under the "exploits" umbrella are things developed by people like the metasploit project, or portions of virus code which trigger overflows, etc.  TDM 19:35, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I think Marcinelle is primarily Belgian, while Uderzo is French. Of course, that isn't a fool-proof criterion, Derib is a Swiss author, but his style looks very Marcinelle-like due to his tutoring by Peyo. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 01:45, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Although I do not speak French, with some google-translation, I get the impression that the French article does not consider it necessary to have worked at Spirou. Neither does the term comic-dynamic mention the place Marcinelle. I have seen that French-Belgian comics have been divided into three different styles of painting, realism, ligne claire and comic-dynamic. Apart from Asterix, Iznogoud, painted by Jean Tabary, could be mentioned. To my knowledge Iznogoud has never been published in Spirou, but the style of painting is clearly comic-dynamic. Is there really any clear difference when it comes to painting here? If the term Marcinelle school is used only for what has been published in Spirou, it seems that the term comic-dynamic can not be used as a synonym to Marcinelle school. My impression, however, is that Marcinelle school is used synonymosuly with comic-dynamic and that Asterix and Iznogoud belong to the Marcinelle school. --Oddeivind (talk) 12:21, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

message: As suggested by Murgh in a request for citation, it would be useful for this article to include comparative information on Spirou and Mickey magazines. (And Pilote, the Asterix magazine.) This would entail expanding the scope of the 'Spirou and Tintin rivalry' section. Since these magazines catered to somewhat distinct elements of French-speaking society in a way similiar to that of the choice of subscribing to The Washington Post or to The Wall Street Journal, it might be interesting to write about these magazines' different approaches to target readership and about their respective editorial policies.

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Former countries/Subdivisions bureau

message: Hello. The WikiProject Council has recently updated the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory.  This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at User:B2T2/Portal, listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding assessment, peer review, and collaboration are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. Also, I note that yours is a comparatively new project. You may be interested in the Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Guide, which has a lot of information regarding project organization from several of the most successful WikiProjects. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.      B2T2 19:54, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors.
