Talk:Fuller Warren

message: From the article as it stands now:
:During his term, he set the foundations for the state's turnpike system, began the Florida reforestation program, quality control programs on Florida's citrus crops were instituted, and new laws were established which forbade cattle to wander freely.
Two relates problems -- one style, one content.
1) Style-wise, the parallel structure breaks down for the third and fourth items.  The first two entries are, "During his term, he set...[he] began."  But "he" doesn't gramatically fit before  "quality control" or "and new laws."  The paragraph could be rewritten as
:"During his term, he set the foundations for the state's turnpike system, began the Florida reforestation program, instituted quality control programs on Florida's citrus crops, and established new laws which forbade cattle to wander freely.
However, this leads to the second problem
2) Which of these things did Warren *do*, and which of these things did he help along or simply happened during his term.  The phrasing as it stands now is unclear and I'm no expert.  EEMeltonIV 04:58, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

message: There is so much interesting and individual information on Battlemechs, that they should really have an article of their own. One section of an article can give a good overview, and it does in the battletech article. But there are so many specific technical terms and technology that it can branch off into. I took it upon myself a minute ago to write an entire article just on Myomer, which now will be linked in infamy to any article brave enough to tag myomer to an internal link.

thread_title: Untitled

message: Does anyone know anything about these pieces?  I notice that the four pieces don't appear to all have the same title (I can't read Russian script, though); so are they all in fact preludes?  In addition, the first piece is labelled "Op. 2", and the next two, both shorter, appear to be a self-contained set labelled "Op. 3".  The last piece doesn't have an opus number.  So does anyone know if these four pieces are in fact originally from different sets of pieces, rather than a set of four that were together from the beginning?
And does anyone know if Op. 1 still exists?  Are these four pieces the only ones by Julian Scriabin that survive?
Does anyone have any clues about the tempi these pieces should be played at?  A couple of the pieces have no speed indications whatever, and I cannot decide whether they are best played fast or slowly, or in between.
And if anyone knows any more detail about his short life, I would be very interested to read up web sites or books that discuss him in more detail.  (A hard ask, I know.)
I've had a lifelong interest in Alexander Scriabin's music, and have known of the existence of his son Julian's pieces for quite a long time, but never thought I'd ever get to see a score of them.  So I was very pleased indeed to find them on the I.M.S.L.P. site. M.J.E. (talk) 03:44, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

I do also seem to remember, very vaguely, reading probably decades ago that this happened while he was camping on an island in the river with friends, although I cannot vouch for that extra detail, it was so long ago.

Talk:Flint (G.I. Joe)

message: A Warrant Officer cannot ever be an E-6. Warrant Officer ranks are W-1 through CW-5. Flint was always a Warrant Officer.
A W-1 outranks ANY enlisted rank.
The man who wrote the G.I. Joe file cards from the 1980's, Larry Hamma, is a Vietnam Veteran and is well aware of this. 
Flint's rank as E-6 was a typographical error on the original file card caused by an editor who was not familiar with military ranks.
People who are not mentally slow and even barely look into to this subject understand that.
If those of you who edit this article do not believe this perhaps you should contact:

Flint was both in G.I. Joe and Action Force. He was, I think, pretty prominent in Action Force.

Maybe the page should reflect his 'dual' biography. I can only find Action Force mentioned briefly on wiki even tho as I recall the characters' biographies, history, continuity and even the rosters themselves were often signficantly different between the UK an US versions. Quite an interesting phenomenon in itself.

Talk:Mina Crandon

message: Before we were called magicians we were proudly known as conjurors. Our art involves prestidigitation, use of the fingers and  legererdemain, sleight of the hand. Our art is known as  conjuring to us. The public is just unaware of what we call, and know our selves to be, from our past history. I think Houdini would prefer to be known as a conjuror, or if you have to change it magician, rather than an escape artist. 2 Jan 2006 Kazuba
Changed "conjurer" to "escape artist". "Conjurer" implys a supernatural connection, which Houdini was staunchly opposed to.
There is an error in the entry on Mina Crandon: Mina had one son by her first marriage to Earl Rand. Her son, Dr. John H Crandon, was adopted by Dr. Crandon. Also, there is absolutely no evidence that she was "surgically altered."
::Yes, the entire section under "Mystery" needs a serious re-write.  It is one of those Wikipedia entries where it has been edited by people with differing viewpoints with no consensus, so that now it sounds like the "author" is arguing with himself!  heh...
::As far as the surgical alteration... well, not to be crude, but I think that theory must have come from an outdated concept of just how much stuff a woman can fit in her vagina.  I mean.. yeah, we've all been on the internet.  It may be that Ms. Crandon's true talent was an exceptionally large, ahem, cavity, in which she could store all of the props required for these stuns.  --13.12.254.82 20:28, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

message: A pedestrian scramble, also known as a 'X' Crossing (UK), diagonal crossing (US), scramble intersection (Canada), exclusive pedestrian phase, and more poetically Barnes Dance, is a pedestrian crossing system that stops all vehicular traffic and allows pedestrians to cross an intersection in every direction, including diagonally, at the same time. It was first used[citation needed] in Kansas City, Missouri and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in the late 1940s, and has since then been adopted in many other cities and countries. It was most recently adopted in Toronto in 2008 and in London's busy Oxford Circus in 2009.[1] The most famous implementation of this kind of intersection is in Shibuya, Tokyo. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedestrian_scramble
For an all-pedestrian phase, sometimes referred to as a "barn dance" or "Barnes dance," the total pedestrian delay is of the same form as that for a single crossing: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/tfhrc/safety/pubs/98-107/sect4.htm<//ref>
I grew up in Illinois. We called it the barn dance, probably because it was a bit like a square dance, people moving 4 ways and then 2 more ways in the X. There must have been one there for the subject to come up. 
Also called a "scramble pattern" in  <ref>http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/publications/research/safety/04091/09.cfm which shows that this pattern is clearly part of the federal traffic description.

message: The current version of the Schoolhouse Block section (as of March 14 2019) misreads the source it cites to describe where the Wilson School was moved.  The source cited (Reid's "History of Pasadena") does not say that the school was moved "several feet east to a frontage on Raymond," it says that the schoolhouse was moved.  They may have used the old schoolhouse in that location temporarily, but they eventually built a large new school facing Marengo, between Ramona and Walnut, just a few blocks north of Colorado Boulevard.  The old school house, in its new location on Raymond was used as the City Hall, a church, a gymnasium, and then moved again in 1894 and used as a residence at Fair Oaks and Glendale streets, at least according to Reid's "History of Pasadena."  The location of the newly built school is shown on image number 7 of the Sanborn Fire Insurance Map of Pasadena of 1889, available on the Library of Congress online.  https://www.loc.gov/item/sanborn00749_003/  At page 177 of Reid's "History of Pasadena," it says that the new building was first occupied in the Autumn of 1887. It was still in use in 1898 - I do not know when the newer new Wilson School was built four miles east, as asserted by the current version.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Svaihingen (talk • contribs) 21:29, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
