replies: text: Because he wanted to be paid at a higher rate than was offered when the show became a series; mentioned in one of 'The Bill' books. I'd guess, too, that he wanted avoid type-casting.
Also, police officers are obliged to move elsewhere if they achieve promotion. Part of the anti-corruption measures. So Salthouse might have found himself one day written out, and unemployed, or else remain. DI forever, even though he was shown as a first-class detective. Trudy Goodwin's promotion to Sergeant without having to leave Sun Ill Nick was a bit of sleight-of-hand by the producers, June Acland being such a popular character. 121.44.22.181 (talk) 05:22, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

Talk:MGM Records

message: MGM had some noteworthy recordings. It was the 
first record label to have a soundtrack LP of a 
movie, which was "Singing in the Rain." Another 
milestone was the music of German composer and 
orchestra leader Otto Cesana. The music was an 
instant hit with radio stations in the United 
States in the late '40s and into the early '60s. 
The big production-music sound of Cesana's music 
would introduce "easy listening" record shows. 
Actually, it was "Till the Clouds Roll By" (1946) that marked  MGM Records first "soundtrack" release. By the time "Singing in the Rain" came out in 1952 the label had produced a dozen such albums including the million-seller "Show Boat" in 1951.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by FrontRowCentre (talk • contribs) 20:28, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

message: MGM Records is defunct.  MGM Music was founded by MGM in 1986 to manage the music and music publishing rights which MGM owns.  This includes the UA and Orion film libraries. The pre-1986 MGM film output is owned by Time Warner which licensed the music to Rhino Entertainment.  The non-soundtrack MGM Records catalog is owned by Universal Music Group.  So MGM Music is a separate company not related whatsoever to MGM Records despite its common origin. Non-cited material which does not support this info has been deleted.

:Are you sure?  The MGM/Pye/Pathe Records web site in the above link indicated a new CD by Nicole called "Deck of Cards" but I cannot find an online shop which sells it.  Is this legit?  Also, I do not see any indication of the trademark owners granting permission to use the trademarks.  According to the U.S. Patent and Trademark office web site at uspto.gov, the MGM Records name is owned by MGM and has been in use in 1994. The UK ipo.gov.uk URL  confirms that MGM owns that name for recorded music. The Pye Records and Pathe Records names are not trademarks in the US.  But in the UK, ipo.gov.uk indicates at  that the Pye trademark for recorded music is still owned by Philips and the Pathe trademark for recorded music is still owned by EMI.

--Masssiveego 07:10, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Ms. Cofer died on December 30, 2016, according to multiple reliable sources. I have updated the entry accordingly.
It appears that this entry is mistaken in stating that (as in the name of, e.g., Fidel Castro Ruz) "This name uses Spanish naming customs: the first or paternal family name is Ortiz and the second or maternal family name is Cofer." 
Rather, the subject's use of her full name follows a common American pattern (as in the name of, e.g., Hillary Rodham Clinton): That is to say, Ortiz was JOC's birth surname or maiden name, and upon marrying she took the surname of her husband, Charles John Cofer.
I will be correcting the error upon finishing this note.

Talk:East Barnet

message: There is a Wikipedia controversy on whether the parts of N14 within the London Borough of Barnet are properly known as Osidge, or are part of Southgate. My view is that both descriptions can and should coexist. Institutions, businesses and individuals in this area tend to regard themselves as living in Southgate, following the PO usage. However, there isn't any suggestion in the relevant Wikipedia debates that any part of Osidge is also in East Barnet.
The only possible reason for viewing this area as being in East barnet would be that the East Barnet parish boundaries once extended to the area which is now the Monkfrith estate. This is insufficient; the mediaeval church is no more a reliable arbiter of the names of locations than the Post Office is.
Hence, I'm deleting N14 from this page.
:  This map clearly shows how the N14 boundary and the Barnet boundary do not match exactly. This is common throughout London and indeed the UK. Parts of East Barnet come under N14 postal district. MRSC 12:27, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
