Talk:Lake Dolores Waterpark

message: On January 21st, 2008 while driving from Los Vegas into Los Angeles, we saw this waterpark, there were large cranes at the waterpark and some of the larger rides had been dismantled. Any information? 76.232.50.106 (talk) 01:01, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Opening comment 

message: This paragraph was recently added to this article by an anonymous user:
In mid-October of 2018, the abandoned park was the victim of arson, and many of the remaining buildings—The Lazy River Cafe and Arcade, were burned to the ground. Security officers are now on hand and turn visitors away.
I saw a video of the park on fire posted to a private Facebook group, so I know this is true. However I can not find a single news article about the vandalism/arson. Is anyone able to find a source for this so we can add a citation to the article?

replies: text: The insider briefly mentions the arson saying that it destroyed the Lazy River Cafe and arcade.

Talk:Scrip issue

message: It should be something like the following:
: Let V[0] be the value of the company immediately before the scrip issue
: V[x] be the value of the company after the scrip issue
: S[0] share price immediately before
: S[s] scrip issue price
: S[x] post scrip issue price
: N[0] initial number of shares
: N[s] number of shares purchased in the scrip issue.
: If V[0] is the initial value of the company 
: V[0] = N[0] * S[0]   ( value of the company is the number of shares times the share price)
: Value after scrip is value before plus amount raised:
: V[x] = V[0] + N[s] * S[s] , (eqn 1)
: But we know V[x] = ( N[0] + N[s] ) * S[x]  i.e. the value after is the new price times the new number of shares
: Now substituting into equation 1 the formulas for V[0] and V[x]
: (N[0] + N[s]) * S[x] = N[0] * S[0] + N[s] * S[s]
: Thus:
: the post scrip price should be:
: S[x] =  ( N[0] * S[0] + N[s] * S[s]) / (N[0] + N[s])
: i.e.  (post scrip share price ) = {(pre-scrip market cap) + (total cash raised )} / ( post scrip total number of shares)

message: Provisional certificate issued (at the option of individual stock/shareholders) by a firm strapped for cash (but having adequate retained earnings) in lieu of cash dividend. It may take the form of (1) a promissory note discountable before its due date, also called liability dividend, or (2) common stock (ordinary shares) reflecting capitalization of a part of reserves (retained earnings). Also called capitalization issue, it allows the holders to increase the size of their shareholding without incurring associated costs, and the issuing firm to retain cash for expansion.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.217.220.7 (talk) 17:20, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Scrip dividend definition

message: Main objectives of Scrip issue:
1: To increase the number of shares
2: To Reduce the share price
3: To Attract the shareholders by issue a bonus share instead of giving dividends, but the universally bonus shares are initiated to adjust the Share price. However Issuance of bonus share stimulates the demand of share which may cause a slight increase in share price. For example the ever highest price Of a company in a year is $500 current share price is $300 This gives an impression of low share price but in actual this is a sort of Trap for newbies, DO you know how? Yes there may be bonus shares issued by a company 1 for 2, it means the share price should be 500/2= $250 but the share price is $300!!! OH no the share price has not fallen in actual. so All that glitters are not gold.
4:Bonus share is also issued to give shareholders a "change of" existing shares. If you have one share of $1000 the bonus issue makes it 2 shares of worth 500 each it means You total wealth is same.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Waqaradil0089 (talk • contribs) 21:18, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: In linguistic analysis using fuzzy logic, it is accepted that "couple" means "two or few" (please see https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/learner-english/couple). In general because of of the overlap or intersection between the meaning of "couple" and "few" to me the most reasonable about the meaning of couple is "2 or 3." If I wanted to mean "two and only two" I would tend to say "two." 75.151.73.57 (talk) 07:53, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

            That for all his faults he is loved; whose works are but
        Extensions of his power to charm? … (ll. 11–15)
Auden often had second thoughts about his poems and on occaision would revise them-- September1,1939 being a notorious example, where he excised whole stanzas and then finally wanted to ditch the whole poem.
The  noted poet and critic David Lehman frequently criticized his revisions and had a preference for his orignal works.Bwthemoose 16:46, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

One refers to geographical feature and the other refers to architectural feature. The economy of Pengerang may not be restricted solely to Pengerang Integrated Petroleum Complex, as it has other local economic activities, such as tourism, transport etc. Pengerang Integrated Petroleum Complex (PIPC) itself is a notable entity in which there are many 3rd party reliable source mentioning it, as we can talk about its history, construction technology, port capacity, petroleum refining technology, its geographical map border, who are the sources of raw material and where they shall export it etc. PIPC itself can be fully expanded to go beyond Pengerang geographical border, such as the use of Johor Strait for its ship transport, as well as its interconnection to South China Sea. PIPC should be further expanded beyond stub and start class, that one I agree. But we shall give her more time as she is currently under construction period, and recently probably has been slowed down by the low world oil price and COVID-19.

Talk:Favourite-longshot bias

message: Added Sobel and Raines as the seminal work with respect to the information model.
The What's It To Me/Risk Tolerance Threshold Hypothesis of Herb Conner
The article attributes the apparently irrational overbetting on the longshot (based on payback probability) to "risk-loving behavior, or simply inaccurate estimation", and cites references.  Without being able to cite supporting reference, IMHO, there is a clearer motive more likely to be at work for a 'rational gambler' to pick a longshot despite low probability.
The usual statistician asks about win/loss odds and payback.  But the gambler asks a different question:  'What is the payback worth to me?'  A gambler plans to bet $2 on each of 8 races, and feels that the $16 risk is within his Risk Tolerance Threshold.
If a $2 bet pays $4 @ 2:1 and $202 @ 100:1, even though the longshot odds may be much worse than the payback, a $2 gain on one 8 race card might only pay to offset another $2 loss.  It may thus be below the gambler's threshold for a Pay-off of Useful Value.
A $200 win might pay for the gambler's whole day at the track and then some. Likewise, buying 100 Powerball tickets when the pot grows to > $100MM is a poor bet {P win = (1 - P lose)}. But, since a win would change the bettor's life enormously, and since having 1 ticket has about the same chance of losing as having 100 tickets,one ticket may be a good bet.  The cost of buying one ticket may be effectively below the gambler's risk threshold, and thus is essentially a risk-less and rational bet.

Also there should be easy accecible SIM card holder on the cards...  Is there any answers to that?
*This is a page to discuss the Wikipedia article, not to discuss the subject per se.  Anyway I will try to answer this questions:  The antenna connection is not on the PCI Express Mini Card edge connector, but typically provided by one or more U.FL connectors far away from the edge connector.  On the edge connector the 6 wires for SIM card is available.  The SIM card holder must be made available on the base board.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nisselua (talk • contribs). 
**integrated 2.4ghz antennas for wifi are usually an eighth wavelength, or just under half an inch, iirc. gsm antennas are 800-900 or 1800-1900mhz, I'm not sure on size, but they're probably quite small as well. any trace on the circuit board that's only connected by one side, and is a straight length of metal is probably an antenna, though as stated above, antennas for these things are usually not integrated. they usually connect off to bigger antennas via u.fl connectors.24.68.85.188 (talk) 11:27, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
