Talk:Irving Mills

message: The listing of Duke Ellington's music at the end of the Irving Mills article is inaccurate. Half of the songs listed were composed after Ellington severed his relationship with Mills and all of the albums listed were released long after Ellington lerft Mills.

message: This article is incredibly flattering to Irving Mills.  He had a lot of warts and I have to find a reliable source to include them in the article.  Don't get me wrong, he did some great things.  Mills as a lyricist?  Bull(bleep)!
A noted jazz radio personality in New York has said, he lives in dread that in 500 years, Irving Mills will be considered a great composer.

thread_title:  This Man Has Warts! 

message: There are many things wrong with this entry. But I'll start with his birth name of Isadore. This comes from my research into the song "St. James Infirmary" in which I wrote that, according to a 1900 census: "...and another son of six whose name is barely legible but could have been Isidor." My conjecture has now entered his biography, but it was a mistake for me to say that. On the 1896 ship which brought the family to New York, he was listed Isaac, and his brother Jacob. By the 1910 census they had Americanized their names to Irving and Jack, and their surname from Minsky to Mills. It was never either Isidor or Isadore.

Talk:Seismic magnitude scales

message: Particularly for historical earthquakes, the Italian CFTI5MED catalogue typically uses what they call  for magnitude, but that has nothing to do with "energy magnitude". It actually means "magnitude equivalent", which is derived from macroseismic data. To quote
"To parameterise all earthquakes listed in CFTI5Med we used the Boxer computer code v. 3.321. Boxer uses
intensity data to assess the location, moment-magnitude, physical dimensions and orientation of the source of large historical earthquakes. The macroseismic epicentre is calculated as lying in the middle of the spatial distribution of all sites that suffered the largest intensities. The magnitude, referred to as “equivalent magnitude” or Me to clarify that is an inferred - non measured - estimate, is obtained based on the average epicentral distance (i.e., the radius) reached by each intensity level. As the magnitude is calibrated using 20th century earthquakes for which both the intensity pattern and the moment-magnitude Mw are known with confidence, the Me obtained using Boxer corresponds to the Mw. It is well known that the epicentral intensity I0 decreases for an increasing hypocentral depth, and vice-versa. This implies that Me may be substantially larger or smaller than the magnitude one could obtain from empirical laws using only I0, depending on hypocentral depth."
So, do we need another magnitude type?  here is obviously related to other macroseismic scales, but doesn't seem to be exactly the same as any of the ones already covered in the article. I was looking through the maintenance category for M?, or Earthquakes with unspecified magnitudes as it's now known and came across some that use CFTI5MED as a source, hence the question.

message: As a novice who just generally wanted to know what scale I was looking at when magnitudes are referenced in publications, I found the very last sentence in this article to be particularly informative and wished it appeared a little earlier.

Talk:Jolt gum

message: The statement "laboratory tests revealed that [the caffeine content of one piece of Jolt gum is] only 12.7 [milligrams]" is a serious accusation since on Jolt Gum's web site ( http://www.joltgum.com/ ) it states, underneath their motto "Chew more, do more," "2 pcs of Jolt Gum = 1 Cup of Coffee."  Since a typical 200 ml (7 fluid ounces) cup of coffee contains 80–140 milligrams of caffeine (according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee .)
In other words, you appear to be making a claim which, if true, would mean that Jolt Gum's claim on their web site is false advertising.  I suggest providing a link to the reference for the laboratory tests to which you refer.

thread_title:  references 

message: Jim Jensen was the lead anchor for CBS news for much of the 1970s and 80s, covering both the 6:00 pm news and the 11:00 news.  He was always rather intense and serious, but also intelligent... and it is surely possible he rubbed some co-anchors the wrong way.  He could embarrass them if their reporting or reasoning was off.  In particular, I remember an exchange he had once with Warner Wolf, lead sports anchor, about an issue concerning team play and protest.  I thought Jensen's reasoning was better, though he somewhat abruptly cut Mr. Wolf off and sent the news to another co-anchor.  However, the broadcast did have to move forward.
           Concerning his 'fall' at CBS, I recollect that it was his alcohol and drug use that was the principle issue, and thought this occurred circa mid-1980s.  In any event, he was forced to take a few weeks off... and when he came back, he never quite re-assumed lead anchor responsibilities, that is to say, the same position as when he left, but was more of a special reporter.  Additionally, and around this time, in a remarkable piece of self-reporting, Mr. Jensen revealed part of his life on alcohol and drugs and the difficulties he went through.  Nonetheless, I remember him for being a decent, fair news reporter known for his serious demeanor and intelligence.
            Btw.  I believe he was an avid softball player, and a pitcher.  (John G. Lewis (talk) 04:15, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Talk:House Arrest (The Sopranos)

message: I think I can more or less understand most of the "Episode Recap", but this one defeats me:
: Another example of this could be the way some of the story lines show FBI agents behaving callously (for example, with Big Pussy Bonpensiero, and others later on in the show) which could be compared to the recent bust out of Davey Scatino, whose life isn't as adversely impacted as several people used by the FBI, to avoid spoilers.
Could this be split down into brief sentences explaining what it means?  I understand that FBI agents are being compared to thugs, here.  I don't understand in what sense "the recent bust out of Davey Scatino" is to be taken.

If a party is short of 50% of the votes/seats then in political science this is called a 'plurality' [] not a majority hence the terms 'Majority government' and 'Minority Government.' [] ie in the latter case they do not have a 'majority.'
Also this edit >(although Collingridge might still lead the largest single party).< has been removed since it doesn't alter the substantive point that it's an error and is therefore irrelevant. Valenciano 11:01, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
