thread_title:  Sources for possible overhaul 

message: A large number of the edits to this wiki thread are grossly biased. I think the page should be revised to account for it's blatantly strong anti-FRC and pro AMORC bias. One order prolifically advertises  (and solicits) (AMORC) while Clymer's order is not only more humble but also more historically veritable. They have real documents and sources showing a lot of the history claimed as false by this page to be true, and even Pansophers (an unbiased peer review of RC societies) gives the FRC and Clymer a much higher rating on terms of traditional teachings and historical veritability. Whoever edited this clearly has bias and this wiki cannot currently be used as a helpful source for research. 71.72.213.146 (talk) 05:07, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Category talk:People from Victoria (state)

message: Does this man belong in this category?  It's true that the only reason he has an article is due to his contribution to Winchelsea, Victoria.  However, when he made his contribution to Winchelsea it was part of the colony of New South Wales.  Additionally, he was born in Calcutta West Bengal, India and left Winchelsea sometime around 1850 to live in Sydney.  According to his death certificate he spent 12 years in Victoria and 53 years in New South Wales.  The other 16 years were spent in India.

Talk:Sparsity-of-effects principle

message: *There is clearly some confusion here about the difference between the sparsity-of-effects principle and what I have learned as either the main effects principle or the hierarchical ordering principle.  My recent edit to this page is an attempt to begin a reconciliation.  I have sourced my reasoning.  Ideally I think this page should be forked into two pages, one for the main effects principle and one for the hierarchical ordering principle.  It would probably also be a good idea to bring in some examples of both of these principles.  --Statwizard 20:57, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I come not from a design-of-experiments background but from a numerical optimization background. It seems as though the sparsity-of-effects principal is saying (in optimization terminology) that the Hessian matrix of the cost function at the solution is likely to be "almost diagonal": that for each row and column, only one off-diagonal entry is likely to be close in magnitude to the corresponding diagonal entry. Said another way, I think that's saying that the eigenvectors of the Hessian corresponding to the strongest curvature will tend to lie on the planes of the coordinate system (i.e., to have the magnitude of one or two components dominate the magnitude of the other components). Also, this implies that it is trivial to permute the degrees of freedom to produce an approximate Hessian that is a tridiagonal matrix: For each DoF, i, find the DoF, j > i, that it interacts most with; swap DoF i+1 and j to move the i–j interaction terms to the off-diagonal.
It seems notable that this principle then seems to not be invariant under change of coordinates. That is, if instead of an experiment having physically-meaningful "knobs" to turn, the knobs were first transformed by a matrix, then this principal would break down. In contrast, for many optimization problems, coordinate-system invariance is assumed. As such, it seems like to use this principal one has to be careful to select variables that are physically meaningful in the context of the underlying mechanisms. Does that sound right? —Ben FrantzDale (talk) 13:12, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Shabak technique

message: I dispute the factual accuracy of this article because:
*No reputable source is referenced.
*A Google search yields a wide variaty of torture methods referred to as "Shabach", it is not clear that this is indeed a particular method.
*The name "Shabach" is not a likely spelling of Shabak and it is not clear that this is indeed the origin of the name.--128.139.226.37 21:26, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Dispute

message: Let us put aside the above diversions and etymological trivia. 
If the claims are true, and the Shabach/Shabak actually set out in this way to destroy the minds of young Palistian opponents, then the world must know. The Israeli people must know this was done in their name.
Is this really how the Shabach/Shabak operates? From the top down? Is there no accountability here? It is not an area where a mere Google Search helps much. Are people afraid of Shabach/Shabak agents, holding their tongues? Who knows and has the courage to tell? Beyond this stuff, even beyond the holocaust, there is still such a thing as basic human decency. It really does exist. And one would desperately hope that Israli's at least understand this, and will stand up for it. Otherwise what hope can there be? Geronimo20 08:41, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Real, but not Correct? 

message: According to a draft of the case file entitled Public Committee Against Torture v. Israel   HJC 5100/94 Judgement by President A. Barak, article 10, entitled Waiting in the Shabach Position, is described as follows:
10. This interrogation method arose in several petitions (HJC6539/95, HJC 5188/96, HJC 7628/97). As per petitioners' submission, a suspect investigated under the "Shabach" position has his hands tied behind his back. He is seated on a small and low chair, whose seat is tilted forward, towards the ground. One hand is tied behind the suspect, and paces inside the gap between the chair's seat and back support. His second hand is tied behind the chair, against its back support. The suspect's head is covered by a sack that falls down to his shoulders. Loud music is plaed in the room. According to the briefs submitted, suspects are detained in this position for a long period of time, awaiting interrogation. 
Petitioners claim that prolonged sitting in this position causes serious muscle pain in the arms, the nech, and headaches. The state did no deny the use of this method. It submits both crucial security considerations and the safety of the invesitgators require the tying of the suspect's hands as he is being interrogated. The head covering is to prevent contact with other suspects. Loud music is played for the same reason.Italic text
