Talk:The Voyevoda (opera)

message: We have a bit of confusion here.  The Russian title was "Воеводa", transliterated "Voyevoda".  Russian does not have definite or indefinite articles, so translations have to insert them where necessary and appropriate in the target language.  The usual English translation of the title is "The Voyevoda".  That's what the article should be called, not just "Voyevoda".

message: My rationale on including this write in the D&D wikiproject is that he wrote one novel for the Birthright setting ("The Hag's Contract"), as well as at least three short stories which firt appeared in Dragon magazine: On the Rocks at Slab’s (January 1986), Well Bottled at Slab’s (October 1987), and On the Scent at Slab’s (October 1995).

message: Yall need to have a real dictionary on the computer that tells you what the definition is!!!!!!!
* Hooperbloob added the accuracy dispute in 2007 based on his assertion, "I hardly think that design objectives are limited to telecom projects."  While the term "Design Objective" is used generally in engineering and design, the original author was obviously thinking of one specific use and wanted to describe the important features of this form of DO (no standard existing).  Perhaps the page should be renamed "Design Objective (Telecommunications)"?  Fordsfords (talk) 14:57, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Folding-Fin Aerial Rocket

message: This article may be deeply flawed and possibly should be deleted entirely. FIRST, The article is called Fin-Folding Aerial Rocket, but I've always seen it as Folding-Fin Aerial Rocket. Searching on "Folding-Fin Aerial Rocket" redirects to the Wikipedia entry on Rockets, which suggest this article is both unnecessary and even, literally, on its face, erroneous. SECOND, It's completely about sex American weaponry and development, even though many nations use FFARs. If this were specific to a weapons system (e.g., Hydra 70), it would be fine. But it's not, so a focus on an entire range of technology as American is wrong. It's as if we saw an article on "personal computers" and it only talked about American-made IBM machines from the 1980s.

message: First, I hope someone has cleared up the issue with their being a specific "Folding-Fin Aerial Rocket" and also many aerial rockets which use folding fins.
Second, I'm no expert, but I have to question the claim that the fins were to "spin stabilize" the rocket. I had always believed merely having fins was enough to stabilize the rocket, exactly as in the feathers on an old-fashioned arrow. It creates drag on the rear, keeping the front pointed ahead. I had thought the ALTERNATIVE was spin-stabilized rockets, which use vectored thrust to spin the rocket in a manner similar to a rifle bullet, which also creates stability. I may be completely wrong, but I thought that fin-stabilized rockets did NOT spin, because the fins did that work instead. I know that is why they use fin-stabilized projectiles nowadays for shaped-charge projectiles such as used by 120mm smoothbore tank0guns, because the spin degrades the projectiles terminal effectiveness. If fins are enough to stabilize a Armor-Piercing-Fin-Stabilzed-Dicarding-Sabot anti-tank round, why would aerial rockets need to spin also?.45Colt 23:41, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Mk 4 was intended to break airplanes, not thick armor.  Far as I know, it did not use vectored thrust, but rather canted fins, for spin.  Why straight fins were not thought to suffice, I don't know. Jim.henderson (talk) 16:35, 29 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Atlantic City and Shore Railroad

message: Here is another plausible explanation of the Short Line railroad in Monopoly.  Charles Darrow, who patented the game, was a Philadelphian.  The Pennsylvania, Reading and Baltimore & Ohio railroads all served Philadelphia at the time the game was patented.  No railroad serving Philadelphia was named “Short Line”.  However, the Reading and B&O railroads shared track rights in and around Philadelphia, and both served New York City from Philadelphia, via Jersey City.  The Reading and B&O jointly owned and used a section of track outside Philadelphia which served as a short cut on their New York City routes.  That several miles of track was known as The Short Line, and still is used today, by the Chessie System.  It seems possible that Darrow knew someone who worked for either the Reading or B&O, and heard them use the term, or he might have seen the Short Line referred to in a newspaper.

thread_title:  Reproduction of sources in ss. 4 and 5 

message: Fellows,
Lumen Gentium defines a three grade levelling hierachy regarding the inclusion into the catholic church, which are called (I translate this from German memory) something like the "three levels of catholic unity".
According to this, the (non-united) Eastern Churches only miss the last level of catholicy (which is accepting the primacy of the Bishop of Rome). Those are catholic enough to spend us sacraments in case no roman catholic priest is available. In case of death, it is allowed (and for several reasons to be considered safe) to be saved from hell by said orthodox guys, if I may say so. 
Therefore this article appears to be entirely misleading, since comments about a wording by some bishops can not possibly invalidate the whole meaning of a document from a oecumenical council.
The eastern churches are therefore in catholic unity up to the issue they do not accept the primacy of the Bishop of Rome, which makes them catholic or not catholic, depending on just how the term catholic is being used right now, either as "catholic" or as a confession.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.180.48.77 (talk) 00:34, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
