Talk:Pension tax simplification

message: I have just tagged Personal pension scheme and Self-invested personal pension as candidates for a possible merge.  Does anyone think that this article Pension simplification should also be merged with the resulting article? DFH 19:21, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge proposal - further merge ? 

message: "In addition to the above changes, employees aged 50 or over will be able to withdraw 25% of their pension fund as a tax-free lump sum, whilst continuing to work. The age at which this claim can be made will increase to 55 in 2010/11. It will also be possible to withdraw another 25% tax-free lump sum upon retirement."
Is this correct? I thought only one tax free lump sum of 25% is available upon retirement. Coolcato 10:56, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: Do we really need to state that computer-animated CG movies like Toy Story, Final Fantasy, etc. are completely pre-rendered? All films/video are "pre-rendered" in the sense that they're shot/rendered by the filmmakers beforehand rather than being created by the TV station/VCR/DVD player/film projector/etc. in real-time. That's what makes FMVs "pre-rendered"—the fact that they're video rather than in-game scenes.--Subversive Sound (talk) 18:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Computer-animated movies 

message: What about in Dead Rising where, during the cutscenes, if you've modified the character's clothing or they're covered in blood (though the latter doesn't seem to always apply) it is shown as such?  If you enter a certain cutscene trigger at a certain camera angle, that doesn't change the cutscene, but if you're dressed differently it'll show up. How does that work?--unsigned
I've never played Dead Rising, but they're either not pre-rendered scenes, or the game has different versions of the same FMV sequence using each permutation of character clothing (not practical if there are many scenes and many clothing choices), or it's possible that the character's clothing is spliced into the video from a set of clothing animations.

thread_title:  Prerendered sprites 

message: I'm not entirely sure that this statement 'A game with pre-rendered backgrounds is forced to use fixed camera angles' is accurate. A pre-rendered background doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the camera. The simplest example would be a pre-rendered background that is larger than the area the camera observes. Clearly the camera can pan around the environment, zoom in or out, etc. The reason that the camera angle doesn't usually change is because most pre-rendered art is being viewed as a distant 2d object, so you typically have it remain static even when the camera moves around elsewhere. Think of, for example, a 3d object with a pre-rendered background. The camera can move to any angle to view the 3d object, while the background remains static.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.205.124.149 (talk) 08:53, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

message: This section is established to document select portions of the Fetha Nagast. DonaldRichardSands (talk) 21:59, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Select quotes and concepts from Fetha Nagast 

message: This page was recently moved from Fetha Negest to Fetha Nagast with the assertion that it is the "correct" name. Anyone with some familiarity of Ge'ez, however, knows that the correct name is ፍትሐ ነገሥት which can be transliterated in a variety of ways, using a variety of methods. The second word means "kings" and the two vowels in that word are, in the method followed by classical linguists, most commonly transcribed as ä, a with two dots, even though the pronunciation of that vowel is more like English short e, so that the word would rhyme with "jest".   Many typesetters, confronted with the symbol  ä as written by linguists, would simply remove the two dots and transcribe it as a, which leads to the even more misleading transliteration "Nagast".  It is misleading because the word is not at all pronounced as if it were "Nagast" nor should it be, and Negest is far more accurate for the actual pronunciation if you're not trying to confuse people.

thread_title:  Distance 

message: I know stars do get "bigger" as well as denser, but with all I've learned about astronomy, it seems to me that they're comparing "mass" more than size but representing it with size. I mean, if it's that big, so be it, but things supposedly get denser until they hit certain amounts of mass. For example, Jupiter would need to be 13 to 80 times more massive than it currently is in order to be a brown dwarf star, but it would (in theory) stay the same size and just get denser. Once it was big enough to be an actual star (ala the sun) it would definitely get bigger (fusion?), but then stars are known to be about ten or so solar masses and only slightly bigger than the sun. Also, some lower mass stars are many thousands of times bigger. I think one has something like 70 or 80 masses and is in the THOUSANDS of times bigger than the sun, but isn't anywhere near the most massive. If anyone could help out, it'd be much appreciated! 12.165.254.36 08:08, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The accuracy of parts of this artcile are highly suspect.  
1/. The Crown is NOT an institution that stands in place of a written constitution. See the relevant article for a proper definition if required.
2/. The Church has never been responsible for enforcing Law in England.
3/. Whilst the Church of England does (or, at least, the Church Commissioners do) have its own Official Solicitor (in full, the Official Solicitor to the Church Commissioners) I cannot find any evidence to suggest that the two positions have ever been linked in any way.
4/. The history and function of the role stated here is not backed up in http://www.officialsolicitor.gov.uk.  
5/. In the section concerning the Pentonville Five - the Official Solicitor merely refered a case of Contempt of Court to the Court for review - he didn't order the release himself, and did so as part of his standard function - ie not drawing on ancient unknown powers.
Please add citations to all statements in this article, or else I will mark it as needing verification, and will begin to re-write it based on the history and role at http://www.officialsolicitor.gov.uk. --The Thieving Gypsy 20:01, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
