Talk:Sawyer

message: The link to William Sawyer, an English cricketer, surely goes to the wrong William Sawyer. The 1700's was too early for anyone to be seriously working on a light bulb. Didn't Joseph Swan work with a guy named Willam Sawyer? And that was in the 1800's. If I'm right, the link to William Sawyer from this page  be changed.69.6.162.160 01:46, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I wonder if this is an accurate portrayal of sawing planks in Japan then (c. 1800)? Note one sawyer is working from the top, and a second is pushing a second saw from the bottom. This seems an unlikely and inefficient arrangement -- western hand-sawyers worked a two-man saw, with the junior sawyer in the sawpit (he got the worst of it.) Comments?

message: This is one mixed up article. Most of the Internet Chess Club stuff duplicates that in that article. I am proposing to strip this down to be a neutral, more general article on chess servers. BlueValour 01:47, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

message: * I agree completely with BlueValour
* I redirected "online chess" to this page since this article pretty much describes it. 
* Perhaps the division interface servers (old-school such as ICC, FICS, chess.net,etc) and java servers (yahoo, etc) should be made clearer.
* I think Playchess should have its own article, rather than redirect to chessbase.
* How about a comparison chart on the different servers?

Seaman Sharif Carpenter Arpa-v fresh from BootCamp was in a new world as compared to have been an islander in the southern Philippines. A son of A U.S. Army Captain of WW-II, Sn Arpa's imspiration was his father. The second that most inspired Him to be a career minded Sailor was the USS Mahan's Skipper, Ship's Captain CDR. Steele. Looking on the latter as his positive role model. After the Decommissioning of the Mahan, Sn Arpa took his first furlough or leave back to the Philippines. Unknowingly that when he reports to his next duty station, he would be aboard ships in Haiphong Harbor as Mount 51 Gunner in the Vietnam War. He had served later on eight other ships in his career and three land bases. To my Captain, CDR. Steele, my very best to you Sir and thanks for having me join you over a cup of coffee.

Talk:Desert Camouflage Uniform

message: Without knowing the proper procedure for going about this, I would like to suggest that this article be merged with any other articles already in existence that refer to a "Desert Camouflage Uniform."  The "DCU" is a misnomer, as Army Regulation always refered to the uniform as the "Desert Battle Dress Uniform" or DBDU.  DCU came about because Soldiers did not read the regulation and assumed that the photos in AR 670-1 were the sole authority for what constituted the DBDU.  AR 670-1, ca. 2005, states:
5–2. Composition and classification
a. Material composition.
(1) Desert coat, trousers and hat. Fabric is 50/50 cotton and nylon twill (old weight material) or 50/50 cotton and
nylon ripstop (new weight material), with infrared protection characteristics, and it is printed with a three-color desert
camouflage pattern.
(2) Desert coat, cold weather. Fabric is 50/50 cotton and nylon sateen, wind resistant, and it is printed with a threecolor
desert camouflage pattern.
This obviously refers to the "DCU," because the description refers to "a three-color desert camouflage pattern," whereas the previous design, also called the DBDU, was a six-color camouflage pattern often referred to as the "chocolate chip" pattern.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 214.13.196.186 (talk) 12:18, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

message: The northeastern US lakes are very stable making permanent fixed docks very reliable. The nominal level for Seneca Lake is 446', while only 449' is considered major flood state, and 442' would be an exceptional drought and make dock boats unlaunchable. +-1 meter at the very most from a 1960s New England drought situation to a Flood of 1972 scenario. Even Lake Ontario only deviates from the 2017 flood of almost +2 meters, but wouldn't likely be allowed to fall to -2 meters with the St. Lawrence outlet gate nearly closed.

Tributary streams, groundwater, and the lake itself are regularly tested for water quality.  Additionally, KLA collects and publishes data about the lake level.
