Talk:Heavy Action

message: It was composed expressly for the BBC's television series Superstars. In 1971, ABC acquired the rights to use "Heavy Action" as the opening theme music to Monday Night Football
If Superstars didn't start broadcasting until 1973, are we supposed to believe that this music was specifically written for the programme at least two years before it aired?  Perhaps the date of 1971 for Monday Night Football acquiring the music is incorrect?  Either way, something here seems inaccurate.Cyberinsekt (talk) 23:16, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Quite simply, it wasn't composed expressly for Superstars. It was a library piece, available to whoever wanted to use it (hence its title, which is a kind of "serving suggestion" typical of library music). The article is plain wrong. - 88.111.45.143 (talk) 22:20, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Heavy Action was written for the BBC while Johnny Pearson was working as the top title music composer in the UK.  His obituary here http://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/johnny-pearson-composer-pianist-and-arranger-who-worked-on-lsquotop-of-the-popsrsquo-during-three-decades-2249980.html clearly states that he wrote the music for the BBC first, and then it was picked up by ABC.  There is controversy over when the idea of the Superstars TV programme was invented, with the British organisers claiming that they had the idea as early as 1970, only to be delayed and then watch Dick Button create the show in the US in 1973.  They then rushed into production that summer.  It is then easy to surmise that they already had commissioned Heavy Action as the theme music in advance of production.  Unfortunately, all the original participants are now dead, so proving who it was written for and when is a moot point. It is clearly very well known for two distinct reasons in the UK and the US.  With this in mind I think it is only fair that the UK usage be returned to the article. Mwmonk (talk) 11:44, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Glen Allen, Virginia

message: Let's talk about the geographic extent of Glen Allen. Because it is an unincorporated community, there may be more than one source describing its boundaries. One source, which is used for all of the population and demographic statistics in the article, is the U.S. Census Bureau, which lists the Glen Allen Census Designated Place (CDP). The extent which I describe in detail in the geography section consists of the CDP boundary. What other sources might there be to describe Glen Allen's geography? I considered ZIP code boundaries. There are two ZIP code areas covering the Glen Allen CDP: the northern half is 23059, and the southern half is 23060. The Postal Service calls both ZIP code areas "Glen Allen". However, as is the case throughout Wikipedia U.S. articles, ZIP codes are a poor fit for community boundaries. They only describe how mail is distributed and commonly extend well out into rural areas. In the case here, 23059 also covers areas that the Census lists as Wyndham and Short Pump, while 23060 includes Innsbrook and another part of Short Pump.
While CDP boundaries do change from time to time, ZIP code boundaries change much more frequently. Thus, the standard practice in Wikipedia has been to use the CDP framework for unincorporated places. Now if Henrico County or Hanover County have some type of designated sub-county zones named "Glen Allen", that would be worth mentioning in the article as well. But it is misleading to use ZIP code areas as a descriptor of the location of a community in the opening section. --Ken Gallager (talk) 19:36, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Talk:HSL 3

message: Is this an HSL in anything other than name ?
Trains leave Liege at ~160km/h, enter a tunnel (max in tunnel is 200km/h), then the line parallels a motorway for a short while (look on the map) at which speeds may (according to the article) exceed 200km/h, before the line shortly rejoins the classic route across the border at a more sedate 160km/h.   Upgraded line it certainly is, but a high speed line generally signifies speeds above 200km/h along s significant part of the route (>50%), which is certainly not the case here.
Anyway - it's a vast improvement on what's there already, so well done to those building and financing it.:-)--Ordew 02:42, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: According to List of high-speed railway lines, "The International Union of Railways defines high-speed rail as public transport by rail at speeds of at least 200 km/h (124 mph) for upgraded tracks and 250 km/h (155 mph) or faster for new tracks." According to the same article, under Belgium, the HSL3 is rated at 260 km/h so it is a high-speed line (since 260 is greater than or equal to 250). The other three (HSL1, HSL2, HSL4) are rated at 300 km/h so they are high-speed lines a fortiori. — Reminder: The HSL3 doesn't go all the way from Liège to Aachen but only from the Angleur junction (between Angleur and Chênée) to the Hammerbrücke junction (before the Hammerbrücke bridge). The rest of the line from Liège to the German border consists of the begin and end of the classical line 37 Liège – Verviers – Hergenrath-border (to Aachen). Similarly, the HSL4 starts just north of Antwerp Luchtbal station and ends into the Dutch HSL-Zuid at the border. Tonymec (talk) 07:49, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure that 'nag' by itself is a good word choice when describing the evil maid's mount. To someone only familiar with the verb 'to nag,' it isn't at all obvious whether this 'nag' is a horse or a mule or even something unorthodox like an ox, only that it is somehow inferior to the talking horse. Even looking it up on Wiktionary, it gives both "pony" and "old, useless horse," which is still rather ambiguous. My Webster's II New Riverside University Dictionary gives the verb 'to nag' first and with a lengthy definition with examples, while it gives the noun definition simply as "1. A horse, esp. an old or worn-out horse. 2. Archaic. A small saddle horse or pony." Given that this is an old story to begin with, it's still not exactly clear what is meant by 'nag.' 68.60.202.174 (talk) 08:41, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
