Talk:Schoolmaster

message: ===Public school, grammar school, and comprehensive school usage===
I dispute the claim that 'Headmasters' exist only in public schools and, colloquially, in grammar schools. Not so many years ago I attended a comprehensive school which emphatically had a Headmaster, Deputy Headmasters, and Senior Master. These were the titles which these men used on their writing paper. It was absolutely official that they were designated types of master and not types of teacher. Most of the other teaching staff were indeed known as teachers, although there were several older masters who described themselves and their colleagues as 'masters'. Further, I know from young adults who were recently educated at public schools and from personal experience of public schools that the word 'master' is increasingly going out of fashion in those establishments as well.
===Hierarchy===
I suspect that the hierarchy of masters was written with reference to one particular institution. At my own school we had a Headmaster, two Deputy Headmasters, and a Senior Master, who ranked beneath the Deputy Headmasters. In some schools the Senior Master may indeed be the headmaster's deputy, but there are many schools in which he ranks below the deputy headmaster(s) and is mostly responsible for discipline. The Senior Master at my school kept a couple of canes propped up in the corner of his study many years after he had ceased to be able to use them. The school was sufficiently modern that our teachers didn't wear gowns in the classroom, but the headmaster, deputy headmasters, and senior master unfailingly wore them to hold assemblies. I also dispute that the Second Master ranks third. There are certainly schools I know of where the Second Master is precisely that - the second master, ranking immediately after the Headmaster.
===Other particular terms===
The article does mention that other terms are also used. Most importantly, there are a number of schools where the headmaster is simply 'The Master', as in certain Oxbridge colleges. I think there is a sense in which all headmasters are 'The Master' because there is a slightly pedantic term for schoolmasters, which is 'Assistant Master'. I once worked for a rather old-fashioned institution which had dealings with the teaching profession, where that was the accepted term. It was so pedantic that one 'Assistant Mistress' wrote to complain that she was neither a mistress nor an assistant, but it had to be explained to her that as far as we were concerned she was an assistant mistress because she assisted the one true Master or Mistress of her institution. It was rather like the Emperor being proconsul of the imperial provinces.

message: In India in most schools, a female headmaster of a school is always referred to as "headmistress". Also "master" for teacher is almost always used; so "English master", "English mistress", etc. Female teachers are refered to as "mistress", or more commonly "miss".

Talk:All Things Must Pass (song)

message: The article claimed that "all things must pass" is a reference to Matthew 24: 6-8, but the wording there is different, namely "all things must come to pass". In the song George intends "all things must pass" as a comforting thought, that bad times don't last forever. The Bible quote has the opposite meaning, that good times don't last and bad things are coming! Admittedly these are two sides of the same coin, but the focus is significantly different.

message: Professor Charles Goetzinger conducted a social experiment in his class at Oregon State University by having a person in a black bag with only their feet visible turn up to class regularly <ref United Academics, or Google either Charles Goetzinger or The Black Bag Experiment> . His experiment, began in February, 1967, became well-publicised and had the interest of the media at the time. My point is, this experiment occurred shortly before Lennon and Ono first coined the term "bagism" and it could be speculated that the idea for bagism may well have come from The Black Bag Experiment. Interestingly, Ono's take on the meaning of "Bagism" and the psychologists' view of the effect of The Black Bag Experiment, being to further reinforce the phenomenon known as "mere exposure", are somewhat different.

message: Just to inform readers, I am presently editing a book by Brian's aunt.  So I was surprised to read that he had an older sister, Jean, born in 1941.  He had three siblings:  Stephen, Kathryn, and Caroline.  His mother, Ethel, was born in 1931, so could not possibly be the mother of Jean.  She would had to have had her at age ten.  So Jean Ray is not related to him in any way and had nothing to do with launching his career or spurring on his interests.  According to his aunt, he was a born performer and used to use his siblings to put on shows for his family from the age of eight.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.156.186.173 (talk) 21:31, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Cavern Mecca

message: The Cavern Mecca was not only the earliest Beatles Museum, but also the touring information center, and the base of Beatles fan club who organized early Beatles festival called "Mersey Beatles Extravaganza", in Liverpool.  And today, the successors of their early attempts can be seen on the various facilities around the Liverpool, for example:
* a replica of Cavern Club stage in the Beatles Story museum (cf. Cavern Mecca in 1981), 
* a huge Beatles relief now seen on the new Cavern Club (cf. Cavern Mecca in 1981), and 
* the John Lennon statue seen on the Mathew Street side exterior of the Hard Days Night Hotel (cf. statue by Allan Curran in 1981), 
* a music festival in Liverpool, called Liverpool International Music Festival (cf. early Beatles festival "Mersey Beatles Extravaganza") 
etc; all these in prototype or original forms were already seen on photographs of Cavern Mecca circa 1981. In my eyes, these early efforts by Liz and Jim Hughes, for establishing the Cavern Mecca as a replacement of virtually closed Cavern Club during 1973 to 1984 (and also 1989 to 1999), seems a prototype of later re-development of the tourism resource in the Liverpool.  Although it seems slightly hard to find the reliable sources, the verification of reverted contributions by User:CavernMecca might be worth of efforts.
