Talk:Hullabaloo (TV series)

message: Was this in color ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dogru144 (talk • contribs) 13 March 2010
:The article implies that it was, yes. "Much of the series' color videotaped footage was later dubbed over to kinescope on film - as such copied in black and white." After you left your comment, this was added: "Only three half-hour episodes are known to exist in their original videotaped form."
:In other words, it was taped and broadcast in color, but only 3 episodes'-worth of those tapes were saved; the rest of the series was copied to black & white film (by filming a video monitor as it played the original color tapes) and the original tapes were lost, or, more likely, just taped over, as was common practice in those days. Feel free to reword the article to better explain. —mjb (talk) 18:56, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I can't believe any television studio / producer would ever do such a thing.  Take a good color original and convert it to black and white (losing a generation of image quality in the process, as well as the color signal), and then lose or record over the original.  WTF?  (I'm not saying they didn't do this — what do I know? — only that it's unbelievable that anyone would!) Captain Quirk (talk) 19:34, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Simple economic and technological pragmatism, however lamentable it may seem to us now. In the mid-1960s, a one-hour reel of 2-inch videotape cost $300, which equates to well over $2000 in 2015 dollars, and it could only be played on a very large and expensive (~$50,000) quadruplex videotape console suitable only for a professional TV studio. If an executive or performer wanted to keep a copy of a show, the solution was to make a much less expensive and easily projected 16 mm black-and-white kinescope film from the videotape, then recycle the tape. Kinescope films could be made in color and sometimes were, but the much higher cost of color film stock (roughly three times the cost of B&W) was a very effective disincentive. 66.81.242.169 (talk) 05:06, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

message: 1) Please don't remove the "verify" tag until such time as there is actuall verfication of the information contained in the article.
2) I don't think the information is entirely acurate anyway...
:: a) The French Resistance is a notoriously complicated and difficult historical problem, between the Communards, the Marquis, the Gaullists, the Legend, the coverup, the slain, the quest for power after the war, etc. Even if you take a "Gaulist" position on the resistance, it is quite possible to argue that De Gaulle was (mostly) a figurehead and men like Marie Pierre Koenig and Jean de Lattre de Tassigny were the military leaders of Free France, neither of whom were captured by the Germans (who would have hung either of them as traitors to Vichy)... with De Gaulle as the President of the Free French... Therefore it is unlikely that one particular person was the right hand of the French Resistance, especially a woman who isn't already mentioned in a wikipedia article! (See Susan Travers who was certainly a "minor figure" compared to her general or to De Gaulle, but still has her own article...)

message: Hi there...I'm not the one who reverted your changes, but I thought I'd try to offer some insights into why the reversion was probably made.  First, wikifying all dates, years, etc. is generally frowned upon unless something about the date is crucial to a wider understanding of the article's topic.  Second, it's standard practice to only wikify the first instance of a term in an article; "Ireland" doesn't need to be linked every time it comes up in History of Ireland, and so forth.  Good luck with your continued contributions. Dppowell 19:17, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  jreferee Chronicle of Ireland edits 

message: The attribution to Rufinus of the kalends+ferial system for indicating years in the Irish annals is due to a hypothesis of Daniel Mc Carthy, and shouldn't be presented as a fact. I quote from Mc Carthy's website:
"Hence, as a working hypothesis it has been proposed that Rufinus compiled a chronicle in the first decade of the fifth century, which travelled to Ireland with the 84-year Paschal table of Sulpicius Severus, whence it was used in Iona in the mid-sixth century as the basis for the Iona Chronicle."
It would be more appropriate to consider the kalends ianuarius ferials as originating in an Easter table such as the 84-year Padua latercus, rather than this conjectured chronicle of Rufinus, which may or may not have existed! In fact, for some of the Irish texts, it looks more likely that their dating system derived from a 532-year Victorian Easter table (e.g. the Annals of Ulster; and very minimally in the Annals of Inisfallen, where the occasional statement of ferial + luna is evident).
The "Chronicle's witness to world history prior to 400" is due to authors such as Eusebius and Isidore, as explicitly stated in the annals (e.g. Annals of Tigernach Annals T608.4 and T616.2), but the former may have been known to the Irish through the medium of Rufinus' translation and continuation of the Ecclesiastical History.

ha-na-ca-ra-ka, da-ta-sa-wa-la, pa-dha-ja-ya-nya, ma-ga-ba-ta-nga
No "v" nor "sh". 
All Indian Sanskrita became Javanised: "v" became "w", na became "nga", etc
'Sh' in Indonesian is also an Islamic-Persian loan-sound: masyarakat, musyolah, syariah, etc as is the sound "z": zaman, zafir etc.
Although Hindu's from India greatly shaped Javanese and Indonesian society and culture- they are not solely responsible for it, and Islam had a longer presence a far greater socio-poltical and educational effect. To believe Hinduism more important than it truly was is blatant neo-Hindu cultural aggrandisation and bigotted chauvinism, and most unbecoming. Thank-you.Starstylers (talk) 15:09, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Construction permit

message: "Building Permits"
I undestand the reason for them, but I ask why though. Why do we need to pay for a permit to build or add on to something on your own property? Its your property why shouldnt you be able to do as you please with it, well to a certain extent ofcourse. Thier is always boundries or a limit you reach in this country before paying more. Now to get the obious stuff out of the way, things such as safety hazards and that make the neighborhood look bad are unexceptible. But what
about a nice porch in your back yard? Or even just a fence that connects to home? Whats so bad about that? I could undestand the reason for an inspection of some sort, but already paying for is not so cheap, but then you have to pay for what your going to pay for.
I figure the simple reason is 1, a tax source, and 2 since buildings are usually lived in or used, governments feel the need to regulate them a bit. Thus any new building must be consistent with local law, hence a premit is required. Though - you'd think if that were the reason behind them Construction permit would be easier to get, but they are not. 
Anyway, I am here more to suggest we add a bit on the economic side of this subject. Building premits are the first part of building a new home, which comes with a lot of spendings, employment, outlays etc. Thus this can be a good leading indicator for the housing market and the rest of the economy. In fact it is a part of Leading Indicators.Mynameiscurtis
Yeah, it's friggin' stupid how they regulate that sort of stuff. I figure that if you have a licensed contractor do the work (so that it's safe) or do it yourself and have a licensed inspector check it out periodically (again, so that it's safe), there is no need for a permit. The government just wants to steal your hard earned cash. Whammy 02:01, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The compelling reason for requiring building permits is that if your house/building is shoddy, it doesn't just affect you. If your place collapses onto my place, it's my problem. If your place burns down and lights my house on fire, it's my problem.
