Category talk:Commodore Amiga

message: Is it just me or are the categories :Category:Commodore Amiga and :Category:Amiga redundant duplicates? "Amiga" is a subcategory of "Commodore Amiga" but redirects back to it, effectively being its own subcategory. Am I the only one to find this confusing? — JIP | Talk 18:29, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Redundant duplicates

message: Right now the :Category:Amiga is redirecting to :Category:Commodore Amiga, should it not be the other way around? I mean the name "Commodore Amiga" is little misleading, Commodore (or more correct Commodore International) is the name of the company while Amiga is the platform/computer family, right?
So I suggest making the :Category:Amiga to be the main category, while :Category:Commodore Amiga is redirected to it. Any thoughts? —Marko75 (talk) 15:24, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

message: The following material was moved from mos maiorum and should be copyedited, wikified, and incorporated here where it belongs, if it isn't here already:
According to Livy (Ab Urbe Condita. I 21), the legendary second king of Rome, Numa Pompilius, founded her cult.  Livy goes into the details of the worship of Fides.  Her rituals were performed by the  three flamines maiores, who were the priests of the gods of the archaic triad.  These priests were taken to the shrine of Fides in a covered carriage drawn by a pair of horses to hold her celebrations. While officiating her cult they had to cover their right hand with a white piece of cloth to the fingers.Servius ad Aen. I 292 and VIII 636; Horace Odes I 35, 21; Livy I 21, 4 
Since Fides was considered to dwell in the right hand of a man, she was represented during the Roman Empire on coins with a pair of covered hands, to symbolize the credibility of the emperor and the legions [NOTE: “Fides,” O.C.D. pg 595]   The covering of the hands reflected the worship of Fides, where the man performing the sacrifice would cover his hands to the fingers to religiously preserve Fides (Ab Urbe Condita. I 21).

Talk:Travis McGee

message: It seems to me that McGee never actually says which war he fought in. JDM himself was in the India/Burma theater in WWII, but if we take McGee's birth year to be somewhere around 1934 (as I do) then he would obviously have to have been in Korea. When McGee does talk about his wartime experience it's obvious that it was in a tropical climate of some sort, since he mentions leeches and jungles. Does Korea have those? Wspencer11 13:36, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In "Nightmare In Pink" McGee states he wagered on a pass with Mike and McGee won to spend "..all those Japanese hours in a silk robe...".  Don't think he would be doing R&R in Japan during WWII but it was quite common during the Korean conflict. Jsadamsjr (talk) 19:03, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's pretty clearly Korea in the earlier books, but later there's a reference to a paratroop drop that sounds like WWII, and later still there's an account of a jungle war that the US didn't win, which sounds like Vietnam.  Actually he couldn't possibly have been in Nam, the first books came out in 1964.  (I guess conceivably that could be a reference to Burma, since the US didn't win that one, the British did.  Seems unlikely though.)  MacDonald is generally pretty meticulous, but he seems to have gotten a little mixed up on this one.  BTW, the article says McGee was in the Marines, but I don't think that is ever stated, and I seem to recall that at one point McGee specifically refers to the Army. 76.199.89.188 (talk) 14:15, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I’m going with Army Special Forces in both Korea and Vietnam, giving the benefit of the doubt to JDM’s OSS experience/knowledge and commitment to detail. Remember that members of the 10th Special Forces Group were on the ground in Korea in 1953, conducting covert ops.  And just three years later (1956) members of the 1st Special Forces group were already in Vietnam, with the first green beret casualties in VN being recorded that year. McGee would have trained and taken R&R in Japan for both missions.  And as for the combat jump, green berets were jumping into combat as advisors throughout the mid to late 1950s with Vietnamese and hybrid forces. 2601:14D:C200:1FF0:FD38:AEA6:BB08:BE25 (talk) 15:15, 19 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Pudicitia

message: ref for earlier anon edit. Alf 18:47, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure it's wholly accurate to say that Aidôs is the equivalent of Pudicitia in the sense that, say, Minerva is the equivalent of Athena; without actual myths, they can be equated only to the degree their concepts can be equated, and they aren't at all the same. Aidôs is a vastly broader concept, the feeling of 'shame at doing wrong', more or less the conscience; pudicitia is tremendously narrower, really only referring to proper sexual conduct. (And 'chastity' is a far better translation than 'modesty', BTW.) 
There are other problems with this article (the discussion of the univira thing rather distorts the actual Roman view on the matter) but I don't have time to fix it now. Vultur (talk) 13:35, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Whenever I read about pudicitia in a modern book about Roman custom, the author will invariably speak about the nuances as as particular to Roman culture and lost to history. However, the English word for pudicitia is "pudicity", and the virtue continued to play a role in Western Christian culture for centuries. It continued to be a common word through the 19th century. Indeed, it played a part in the penal code. For example, the 1825 Louisiana penal code mentions "assault aggravated by injury to pudicity." Medical texts of the same period discuss protecting a woman's pudicity. 
Though today we have a tendency to modesty and chastity with pudicity, it was until recently recognized as a slightly different concept. Only the person in question could injure their own modesty or chastity, while others could injure their pudicity.
This is largely an unexplored topic -- but the question to me is whether the text here should be taken out of specifically only the Roman context and expanded into a broader context. Brianshapiro (talk) 03:11, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Spes

message: ref for earlier anon edit. Alf 18:51, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

message: No discussion was opened in conjunction with what I see as a frivolous merge proposal, so I removed the template. The article makes it as plain as can be that Spes and Elpis were conceptually quite different in their respective cultures, and that Spes was cultivated as a deity in the Republican era at Rome and as a part of the Imperial cult of Virtues. There is also a specifically Roman archaeology of Spes. Elpis is a problematic part of the Pandora myth, and perversely connected to the pessimism that is considered characteristic of Greek culture in the Archaic period ("better never to have been born at all" and so on). I really see no benefit in conflating the two. The section noting that the equivalent concept is Elpis could of course do more to indicate what I would assume to be the conflation of the two in the classical tradition, which no doubt occurred under the name of Spes in medieval and Renaissance mythography and allegory.

Talk:HIV Progression Rates

message: Doesn't actually seem to be a copyvio. The relevant paragraph from the suggested source is:
:A significant percentage (10-15%) of HIV-infected individuals experience an unusually rapid progression to AIDS within two to three years of primary infection (Figure 1) (71, 87). As discussed above, it is unknown whether the presence and/or the severity of the acute viral syndrome and a higher peak of viremia are preferentially associated with the category of rapid progression of HIV disease. However, rapid progressors may experience a prolonged acute viral syndrome (see below); in addition, constitutional symptoms of variable severity may persist after transition to the chronic phase of infection. In fact, in rapid progressors the period of true clinical latency may be absent or very brief. Downregulation of the initial burst of viremia may not be very efficient in rapid progressors; even after the initial decrease, the levels of viremia may rise rapidly (see below). Inefficient control of the initial burst of viremia and rapid rise in viremia within the first or second year after primary infection reflect a poor control of HIV infection by the immune system. In this regard, a delay in the appearance of the primary immune response or a rapid disappearance of certain immune functions during the early stages of the chronic phase of infection may be detected in rapid progressors (see below).
It may still be copyvioed from somewhere else, of course. --Ngb ?!? 19:41, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
