Talk:Heliotropium arborescens

message: The ASPCA's Animal Poison Control Center article on heliotropes lists them as a substance which is toxic to horses and can induce liver failure in equines: 
The plant is not very palatable, but will be eaten by animals with no other forage; poisonings typically occur from ingestion of green plant material or material in hay. The toxic components can cause liver failure, referred to as "walking disease" or "sleepy staggers". Signs include weight loss, weakness, sleepiness, yawning, incoordination, yellowish discoloration to mucous membranes (icterus), neurologic problems secondary to liver failure (aimless walking, chewing motions, head pressing). Animals may appear to be normal at first, then become suddenly affected; the syndrome progresses rapidly over a few days to a week

message: The Commemoration (prayer) page currently discusses the meaning of this liturgical term
in the Roman Catholic Church. I think it is a specific example of the more general use
of the term in other religions, including the Anglican Church, so it should be moved here.

Talk:Pulmonaria officinalis

message: Note on Distribution section. 
The article currently claims "This native species is perhaps the most widespread plant in Europe." This strange claim should be removed, it is too ambiguous but on almost any interpretation is clearly untrue.  It also claims that the plant grows in central Sweden. This looks like a confusion with P. obscura, which is indeed quite common in central Sweden. P. officinalis is very rare and occurs only in the extreme south of Sweden, mostly in Skåne. Check Den virtuella floran (http://linnaeus.nrm.se/flora/)  for distribution maps of both species. 15:30, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Toxic? 

message: Are there any actual studies that prove this? From what I can tell this un-sourced claim comes from a page on the Arizona State University website, where a brief sentence boldly states that G. sempervirens nectar causes brood death when collected by honey bees. This "source" itself does not cite another source or study, and may very well be speculation. I've expanded the toxicity section to cover the topic of possible bumblebee self-medication with gelsemine to reduce parasite load so as to provide an alternative (study-based) view on the ecological role of Gelsemium secondary metabolites. I altered the sentence that claims that it causes brood death to say it "may" cause brood death, but I'm not sure if this sentence should just be removed entirely. It saddens me to see that wikipedia featured this "fact" on its front page despite a total lack of empirical evidence provided for it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beatgroover (talk • contribs) 02:17, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

message: Seems to me that some paper tape details should be added to this article and it should be renamed "the punched paper era"--partially because I don't think "programming in the paper tape era" deserves its own article. Paper tape and punched cards overlapped significantly, were concurrent choices, and each had pluses and minuses. TECO (from which Emacs was derived) was invented precisely to edit paper tapes (by editing forward from beginning to end), and the line by line vs character stream ideas about text files are quite prevalent in the history of von Neumann machines, with vestiges still extant today, unix vs. mainframes, and with vi being the outgrowth of the "by line" view. 96.224.32.111 (talk) 18:05, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Both preceded the computer era, and both were still in use until the early 1980s.  Punched cards go back to large-scale data tabulation projects (such Hollerith's work on the 1890 U.S. Census) and predominated in the world of mainframes/batch, while paper-tape went back to telecommunications systems (Baudot codes and such) and was more associated with minicomputers/timesharing.

Under the subtitle, 'common names', it is written thus: Cerbera odollam is known by a number of vernacular names, depending on the region. These include othalanga maram in the Malayalam language used in Kerala, India; (continued...)
Both of these sentences use the name of the seed for the tree. The expression kaya (കായ) means seed/fruit in Malayalam. So Thenga (cocunut) means the seed/fruit of Thengu, Manga (Mango) means the seed/fruit of Mavu, etc. Thus Othalanga means the seed of Othalam. The tree is Othalam and the seed/fruit is Othalanga.
