Talk:Oncotic pressure

message: I am planning to work on this stub for a university assignment.

message: I was under the impression that oncotic pressure is simply another name for "colloidal osmotic pressure." I thought it was defined as the osmotic pressure exerted by colloids in a solution. Can anyone verify this?

thread_title: Cleanup

message: It's a shame that no facts are available for the man, instead the same old comments to discredit a person (ADL ? ). He has attempted to get a grasp of history, a history that I find better explains world events than the one I was taught at skool (sic). I guess time will tell. In the past there have been many "great civilizations" which have come and gone. I now see why (probably) and how this happens. Will I be alive to see it go, yes I see it all around me.
I edited out the sentence that there are claims this man is an anti-semetic, as the link provided for the claim, included an essay which said the exact opposite, meaning whoever included it mis-understood the point of the essay. 216.201.12.175 11:31, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The idea of this school as a bunch of "future-minded career-conscious yuppies-in-training" or aiming for a stereotyped ivy league reputation is really out of touch (at least with the students). These quotes are trying too hard to tell an interesting story. Most people I know go out about twice a week and aren't really too sure what kind of job they want. Dillo Day is the only time when you don't have to care about hiding your partying from school/neighborhood authorities, not the only time when students want to drink or any other weird claim. Besides that, the current reputation is that people who aren't students, usually kids, show up and create issues.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.206.143.7 (talk) 23:07, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for this additional information -- fascinating to hear of the 2.5 Qalandars.

* Leaving aside the question of whether or not it is fair to count a woman as only 1/2 a person, does anyone know what she taught?
* Anyone know about the Hazara people called Qalander? are they Sufi?

Talk:Ludlow style wall box

message: Are all wall-mounted boxes known as Ludlow boxes, or do some (i.e. iron ones?) go by another name?  I'm confused.  
Also, I can think of at least 10 wall-mounted post boxes off the top of my head: is it really true that there are only 450 in the whole of the UK?  That figure seems ridiculously small. 217.155.195.19 14:32, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No, Ludlow's are a very specific type of wall box and are very scarce. They are basically a wooden box and were usually mounted in the window, or wall, of sub-post offices. What you are probably thinking of is a regular cast iron wall box, or a lamp box mounted in a wall as occasionally happens. Ludlows were often damaged, removed or demolished, when the sub-post office closed or moved to another location or a new sub-postmaster was appointed, hence the low numbers of an already scarce post box. Hope that clarifies it for you. ww2censor 04:27, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Those 2 statements are technically true, but I think a bit misleading together. A wizard has nothing to do with the OS's ability to dl the images from a camera, which is something all mainstream OSes have been able to do for many years. All it requires is a file browser and USB capability, and you'd be hard pressed to find any modern desktop OS without those.

:: Allia Potestas was a freedwoman from the Roman town of Perugia who lived in the 1st–4th centuries CE.
: 
If she was born just before the end of the 1st century and died just after the beginning of the 4th century, then she lived slightly more than 200 years.

thread_title:  Age 

message: One passage currently reads:
:The erotic physical description – Allia "kept her limbs smooth" and "on her snow-white breasts, the shape of her nipples was small."
It isn't clear who translated this, but I'm assuming Horsefall.
Contrast to the translations of the second passage above from other discussions about Potestas:
:her breasts, white as snow, showed their slight form
- The Epitaph of Allia Potestas, Ella Bourne, The Classical Weekly Vol. 9, No. 15 (Feb. 5, 1916), p. 115
:The curve of her breasts was small on her snow-white bosom
http://www.stoa.org/diotima/anthology/wlgr/wlgr-mensopinions47.shtml
My concern is how Wikipedia's chosen translation is (in my opinion) considerably more explicit than what is apparently the alternatives (I know no Latin myself), and how this choice could have been made in order to support the thesis "this is unusually erotic". Not that any of this is necessarily wrong. But still.
