Talk:José Maurício Nunes Garcia

message: Not sure how to add this here, but this fine composer (who I'd not come across before) was deservedly selected as Composer of the Week on BBC Radio 3 this week and there's a good range of his music on the BBC Sounds website: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001qvxb . Enjoy!92.6.186.154 (talk) 15:33, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I came here for the same reason and was agreeably surprised to find such an extensive article - it was largely created by an IP in 2008, but without direct references and is more of a stream of snippets (some of which are of little direct relevance). However, :pt:José Maurício Nunes Garcia is a substantial article, covering the music itself and his reputation/legacy as well as biography, and appears to be very well referenced.

Talk:Joan Greenwood

message: Small, delicate.  In interest of objectivity I omit: pouty, feline, alluring, challenging, irresistible.
Besides her voice itself, her particular way of using it was instantly recognisable: the overemphasis on the accented syllables, the seductive purr, the intelligent and musical modulation of pitch over the course of long sentences.  Again, for objectivity, I'm just mentioning her slow, precise elocution which was essential to her recognisability.  If you heard her speaking rapid-patter, you'd never be able to recognise her.

Talk:Josef Kajetán Tyl

message: In my opinion, I think some sections (more specifically the subsections under "work") are way too long and need to be shortened. 
For example, instead of "Plays portraying famous events from Czech history (especially the Hussite movement)" perhaps "Plays from historical events" or "Historical plays" could be better name (and mention the Hussite Movement in the beginning before the listing)
And "Plays featuring fairy tale characters (fairies, witches)" could be changed into something like "Fantasy plays" (terrible suggestion, but you know what I mean)  
I created this post because I want other opinions and comments from people who are more knowledgeable than me about this topic, and for better suggestions. Thanks, - RandomEditorAAA (talk) 00:46, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Hmm.  I wonder if there's another explanation.  Wherever these names came from, they've been around a while.  Grove's Dictionary 5th ed, 1954., gives his name as "Josef Franz Karl Lanner".  --  Jack of Oz  ... speak! ...  08:46, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Grove ("Grove's" is a misnomer) is wrong. It's really that simple. The statement "largely self-taught on the violin" is nonsense. There's no proof that Lanner didn't take lessons from a master.--62.47.131.48 (talk) 19:46, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  I referred to "Grove's Dictionary", which is perfectly, 1000% correct for the 1954 edition, since its full title is "Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians" - which I can attest since I have had the hard copy 1954 edition on my bookshelves for over 40 years.  Now, if I wanted to call it just "Grove", then that would be correct, and not "Grove's".  About his education, we need positive proof that some master taught him, in order to counter the citations that say he was largely self-taught.  --  Jack of Oz [your turn] 21:29, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Forth and Clyde Canal Pathway

message: In Scotland,  'firth' means 'estuary', so this name is meaningless. The canal pathway is actually between the two estuaries (or firths) of the Forth and Clyde rivers, on opposite sides of the country. The Forth runs into the North sea on the East, the Clyde into the Atlantic on the West.
It is more usually referred to as the Forth and Clyde canal pathway. It actually consists of the tow-paths of two separate canals, which are joined together at the Falkirk Wheel, approximately halfway between Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Not sure how to change the name of a page. Does anyone know? I will research this, and welcome comments.

message: of all the UFO sightings I've heard of none of them are as I saw
In Spring of 1985 Jacksonville Florida intersection of I-95 and I295. Wile driviving through that intersection I saw something moving slowly over the tree tops. Pulled over got out of my car. In the distance at tree top hieght (80ft). was aproaching a group of about 20 objects, they passed directly over head at approx. less than 5 miles an hour. Each was larger than a bowling ball but all the same size they were not all the samr color some were red, some yellow, some orange could not see through the colored spheres. Each had a tail of light approx 10 ft long following behind them of matching color, the end of the light tails were tapered to a point at one side, the tail of light was translucent but seemd to be in perfect shape matching the diameter of the sphere. The objects made no sound while moving and were in a stagered arrangement following each other, the total arrangement was about 100+ ft. long. The sighting lasted 3-5 minutes then the objects just continued there track out over the woods.
Went home told my girlfreind she said" yea right !" Then we turnrd on the news and it was on the news, reports from 5 counties, the next day every body was talking about it work. 
It was very close encounter. I'm suprised I hav't heard of any simalr encouter. Just think it had a tail of light, light propulsion I would assume.

:[The hon. Member here read in a manner which made it impossible to follow the application, long extracts from the Report and Evidence of the Westmeath Commission, from the Catholic newspapers of Ireland, and from statements and resolutions of various public bodies, and meetings. The general purport appeared to be to denounce the necessity for any exceptional legislation in regard to Ireland, to assert the general tranquillity and good order of the country and the absence of Ribbonism, and to protest against the invasion of the liberties of the people.] 
and later:
:[The hon. Member, who was almost inaudible, was understood to recapitulate some of the arbitrary enactments of older statutes, and to point out that they were in substance or effect reenacted in the various Arms Acts and Peace Preservation Acts of the present reign].
and then:
:The hon. Member accordingly, who had been speaking from below the Gangway, removed to a bench nearer to the Speaker's Chair, taking with him a large mass of papers, from which he continued to read long extracts, with comments.
