Talk:War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning

message: Fellytone (talk) 04:46, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree.  Just because the source is not available online does not mean it is inaccessible.  I think it's entirely reasonable to include sourced responses to a book in its article. --Maxamegalon2000 04:41, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I've just read the relevant portion of the book; the quote, on page 94 in my version, is accurate.  As for the claim, though I see no reason to doubt that the source in question makes the claim, I cannot confirm whether or not the claim is shared by others, and will not put it back into the article without some proof thereof. --Maxamegalon2000 05:25, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I agree. That edit is being continuously changed back and forth, and the socialist tag needs to stop. While Hedges has called himself a socialist, his body of work is not ideological, and 'socialist journalist' is not an appropriate descriptive title. If anything it should read 'war correspondent' or 'war reporter' as that is what could arguably be said to define Hedges, especially in the context of this book. The article being referenced in the revisions is an opinion piece decrying what he percieves as the disastrous state of the US today. His stated reasons for being a socialist have little or nothing to do with his thesis in War Is A Force That Gives Us Meaning. Socialist is too often a buzzword used by conservatives to discredit someone whose view they disagree with, and whether or not that is the case here, the potential for misinterpretation precludes its use in this article. --Theglowpt4 (talk) 05:04, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Talk:AT&T Computer Systems

message: I've seen this statement made in a few places, and the only backup I've seen for it seems self-referential (i.e., the places I've seen it all seem to be derived from this page). It rings a bell (heh heh) that AT&T did own a significant chunk of Sun early in Sun's existence, probably before Sun went public in 1986, but I can't find anything from a reliable source that says how much or when.
However, the idea of AT&T owning a majority stake in Sun seems to now most often get conflated with the two companies' partnership in developing SVR4, and this is wrong.  The one thing I have found that seems to be reasonably sourced is that by the time this relationship was announced in 1987, AT&T had little or no ownership in Sun; according to http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/sun-info/sunflash/1991/Jun/30.06.att.sun.stock in 1991 AT&T divested themselves of what was then a 19% equity stake in Sun, which they had purchased over the preceding three years.
So, can anyone provide a citation for AT&T owning a significant part of Sun prior to October 1987, with some indication of how much and for what period of time?  Unless there's documentation that this could have any bearing on the SVR4 partnership, I think this section should be rewritten to at the very least decouple the two ideas -- or just remove entirely the statement about AT&T owning a majority stake in Sun.--NapoliRoma 04:37, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've gone ahead and removed the 51% claim.  I still think it's possible that AT&T did own that much of Sun very early in Sun's history, but since by 1988 they did not, it would have little or no bearing on the SVR4 collaboration.  However, they did at that time buy up nearly 20% of Sun's stock, so I included that fact with citation.--NapoliRoma 00:39, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

But the figure I have given are from the Jat Association of Gujarat and may vary regarding numbers but Gotras can not be wrong. These are all Jat gotras.

replies: text: No, the apocrypha category is for the defined set of books, the others not included as apocrypha, are, in Academic circles, referred to as "Pseudepigrapha", which would be a more appropriate category than "apocrypha".  The argument about the Gospels is a red herring, the 2 books on this disambiguation page were never known to be in anyone's canon and are both among the pseudepigrapha, but I don't see the logic in putting the Gospels in "Jewish texts".  ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 15:50, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

text: Actually the term "apocrypha" is a specific term used by some Christian Churches to refer to a specific set of texts that are in dispute, that they reject, that other Churches that don't reject them prefer to call "deuterocanonical".  Other works that don't fall in this specific set of texts that are rejected by everybody are "pseudepigrapha", including these two.  But as for "Jewish texts", the relevant information is given in this article.  You did read this article, right?  It's a disambiguation page mentioning two works of this same title, both of which are described in the article as "Jewish texts".  This is because they are thought to have been written by Jews; being in this category does not imply that they are accepted as true by anyone today, only that the original authors were Jewish, thus making them "Jewish texts". ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 03:58, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

text: Just read this actual article page, please.  Note that it describes both of the books of this title in question as "Jewish texts".  And why shouldn't it?  They are Jewish texts, and no authority disagrees that they are Jewish texts.  This is making no claims whatsoever that they are considered 'authoritative' by anyone, only that they were literature authored by Jews.  Same with the category "Jewish texts".  Since the article itself describes them as Jewish texts, which is not contested, it is fully appropriate to put this article in the "Jewish texts" category - which again makes no statement about whether or not anyone ever considered this literature "canonical".  Is there some part of this that is too hard for you to understand? ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 15:50, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Capitalisation 

message: The geography of the crater suggests a relationship with Shark Bay, 
which could be the hotspot track resulting from the impact.  For 
comparsion, another continental hotspot track extends from 
NE California to NW Wyoming and was made by the Yellowstone hotspot.
Contrary to prevailing geological doctrines, it was recently shown 
that the Yellowstone magma reservoir is at shallow depth of a few
hundred km, not the result of a "mantle plume" rising from the core.
An impact crater can be found in the Modoc plateau, NE California.
A crater ("caldera") was identified there by a Colorado School of 
Mines PhD thesis based on gravity anomalies.  The formation is 
clearly visible on Google maps in the terrain option, which is a 
recent Google map feature.  This is a nearly circular crater with 
a central uplift possibly multi-ring, located NW of popular tourist 
spot McArthur-Burney Falls State Park on HWY 89.  The exact size
is uncertain, because the region was disturbed by later orogeny.  
The age of the hotspot track is 15 M years with over 140 major 
caldera eruptions as was shown by Univ of Utah geologists. As for 
Shark Bay, the greater part of the hotspot track is lost in the 
Ocean or may be located on another continent (India?) after 
break-up of earlier supercontinents. hgwb (talk)  —Preceding undated comment was added at 20:15, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
