message: What's the source for saying Margaret's husband suffers from shell shock?  Is there a line that I've never properly understood?  (I've always thought of him as simply senile.) —Tamfang (talk) 00:50, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Clancy suggests this when introducing the song, such as in this YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=429PaSejZCE&list=RD429PaSejZCE . As far as I know, that is speculation. But, the song says Margaret sometimes "sees her unborn children in his eyes." That suggests the couple isn't past childbearing age. SlowJog (talk) 01:40, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  To me it suggests mainly that she regrets having no children.  Compare "some old love song [that] Margret learned when it was very new". —Tamfang (talk) 02:48, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Alexis Stamatis

message: Addressed to @MarioGom: JurassicClassic767
ALREADY EXISTED PLAGIARISM ALLEGATION
In 2008, Stamatis was accused by literary critic and author Kostas Katsoularis of "copying and pasting" several passages in his book Villa Combray from the novel Elizabeth Costello of the South African-born Nobel Laureate J. M. Coetzee.[citation needed] Stamatis defended his choices as being part of the standard "intertextual references" and "creative discourse".[3] 
PROOF THAT THE ALLEGATION IS FLASE COMPLETED WITH LINKS
However, a word count was conducted, and the conclusion was that only 41 words from Elizabeth Costello were used to stress out the intertextuality of Coetzee himself. These words were in turn Coetzee’s reference to James Joyce’s famous character Molly Bloom in connection with an equally famous quote by Montaigne. Stamatis’ Villa Combray contains 80.000 words. Therefore, the word count was considered quite low as a percentage. This fact is rather evident, and one can prove it by reading the book.  
https://www.politeianet.gr/books/9789600346145-stamatis-alexis-kastaniotis-bila-kompre-201485
Moreover, the book received outstanding reviews from the majority of the literary critics, who praised intertextuality as the book’s main virtue and the pertinent use of intertextual references, and its successful integration in the narrative. To quote a few critics: “Intertextuality that subtly undermines the realistic circumstance, from Dickens to Proust, and also the exotic tradition and convention…” Titika Dimitroulia, Kathimerini, 10.08.08 
https://www.dimitroulia.gr/teleia_pseydaisthisi_toy_pragmatikoy_pezografos_alexis_stamatis_xtizei-article-453.html?category_id=65
“A trip to Africa, to the depths of the Cameroon Jungle, where the realistic fiction, suddenly enters a magic realm echoing back to the atmosphere of House of Darkness by Joseph Conrad”. Vaggelis Hatzivasileiou, 8.06.08
Finally, the book Villa Combray, was nominated for one of the most eminent book prizes established by “Diavazo” in 2008. A member of the committee was the literary critic and author Kostas Katsoularis himself, who in his honor after all this public debate, did not object to the book being nominated.

Talk:Alexis Weissenberg

message: I remember many years ago reading a news story about a feature film that was announced as going into production.  It was to be about the life of Rachmaninoff, and was to star Alexis Weissenberg as the composer.  Weissenberg was chosen, not just because of his wonderful pianism which would obviate the need to have another pianist's hands interpolated in piano-playing scenes (such as in Song Without End, in which Jorge Bolet's hands appeared over Dirk Bogarde's acting), but also because of his facial resemblance to Rachmaninoff.  
I am vague about when this announcement was made - some time between the mid 1970s and the mid 1980s is the best my memory can do.  Such a film has never, to my knowledge, seen the light of day.  How do I find information about this project, and why it did not materialise?  JackofOz 02:32, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, MV.  I also did all the searches I could think of before posting the question, without success.  I think you're right that the project must have been canned; otherwise we'd have heard more about it by now.  Pity, really.  --  JackofOz 02:46, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

I could not find anything on Haland's website as well.
:: I remember it at the time, Håland admitted that the Keane tackle had nothing to do with his retirement, but that didn't stop the media from pretending otherwise. Håland quickly removed the statement that Keane wasn't to blame and tried to sue Keane, but never actually got as far as suing Keane, because he didn't have a case.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.235.100.9 (talk) 20:38, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

At the moment it is very confused, having originally been started as a stub for Alfie Conn Sr, then edited on the assumption it referred to Alfie Conn Jr. The current version contains information on both of them, although considerably more on Conn Jr. Surely they each merit their own page?

Also didn't learn much about the man himself. From Web references to MIT and Columbia, plus the time-frame, I wonder if this might be the James Logan Waters who founded Waters Associates? I have writtent to Millipore (with which WA merged), but have not received a reply.

thread_title:  Who was Jim Waters? 

message: I have removed the "explanation" that the gunner operated the harpoon gun on a whaling ship, because I can't see any reference supporting it, or much of a reason to believe it. The ballad was first collected in the 1850s, when whaling was carried out from boats (as in Moby Dick), the point of the harpoon gun being that it gave a greater range. Sealing was apparently not confined to culling on land; there were such things as seal guns and harpoons (however the only mention I could find in a quick search through the British Newspaper Archive was in a brief item of page 3 of the Newcastle Journal of 7 November 1846). A description of both the whale and seal fisheries of Dundee was given to the 1867 meeting there of the British Association for the Advancement of Science , a summary can be found on p3 of the Dundee Courier of 10 September 1867
 
But the ballad gives no indication of what projectile the gunner fired, and (certainly up to the 1860's) the man firing it seems to have been refered to as a "harpooner" (as in an article on "Harpooning" p2 of the Dundee, Perth, and Cupar Advertiser  of 2 February 1864 recommending that harpooners regularly practise with the harpoon gun to improve their accuracy) 
There is also a problem of timing. As far as I can see, although a harpoon gun was invented in 1731, it was not until the 1770s that there were harpoon guns which weren't more of a hazard to the user than to the target, and it was not until the 1820s that they began to be widely used.
