Talk:Peerless Quartet

message: Different Internet-based sources give conflicting information on the early line-up and formation date of the group. The earliest info that I've seen is for 1902. I'm inclined to give more credence to "Popular American Recording Pioneers, 1895-1925" than to other sources. It seems very comprehensive. The article still has to be updated to reflect the info given in that source though. -- Derek Ross | Talk 00:06, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

The photograph shown above is mis-labeled. It is  1925 or 6, and facing us stage right is JAMES STANLEY, BASS BARITONE. He is my father's uncle, and  hosted me for brunch in early 1950'S in New York at Keen's Chop House. He was a member of the Artists and Writers' Club during the 1950's.
A lifelong friend of his has sent me lots of information about his years in music, etc.  If that person is still around, maybe he would help set up a Wikipedia site about James Stanley and the Peerless Quartet.  My name is Suzanne Stanley, James Stanley is my Great Uncle.

I believe the Ferrari's use of the verb "riprendersi" is meant in the sense to "to recover oneself", given the context.  I also changed the translation slightly for "mi dicchono che siete fantastici" to an English idiom that i think better expresses the intent, and mentions the indication of the use of the second person plural (including Luigi in his praise).
Also: I second the assertion made in the Trivia section that Guido understands English well, but only speaks Italian.  I'd support making a change to the main article section above to reflect that.

<BR>dogman15 02:21, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What about this picture? 

message: Earlier versions of this article have suggested that Red resembles an American LaFrance, but close comparisons with American LaFrance photos from that general era (as well as before and after, ALF Series 700, 800 and 900) shows only a passing general similarity in that many North American fire apparatus from that time have a relatively flat front, round headlights and a siren in the middle.  However, a comparison with photos of a 1960s-era cabover Pirsch reveals his true design source.  Pirsch had the center siren just under the windshield well above the headlights (most American LaFrance models mounted the siren on the driver's side of the front bumper), had single red flashers on the sides just under the windshield (American LaFrance placed them on the roof corners or had them integrated with turn signals above the headlights), and a "lip" around the roof of the cab (American LaFrance roofs are rounded off smooth).  When I turn up a good picture of a Pirsch again for independent verification, I will post a link to it here. Fjbfour 14:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

message: How do you cross-breed something and end up with 2/3 and 1/3 parentage?
I don't know? How do you cross-breed something and end up with 2/3 and 1/3 parentage?
Crossbreed
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Cross-breeding)
Jump to: navigation, search
For the industrial-metal band, see Crossbreed (band). 
The term crossbreed or crossbred refers to a hybrid animal of two purebred parents. Crossbreed may also refer to a domestic animal where the breed status of only one parent or grandparent is known. Crossbreeding, also known as mixing, refers to the process of breeding such an animal, often with the intention of creating offspring that share the traits of both parent lineages. The term is sometimes used for plants but is more commonly applied to domesticated animals.
[edit]
Crossbreeds in specific animals
A dog of unknown parentage is often called a mongrel, while a cat of unknown parentage is often referred to as a moggy (also moggie).

*I was also rather surprised when I saw the proportions cited: an exact 2/3:1/3 ratio is surely impossible (unless there's something very complex indeed going on). Is there any way we can identify the source of these figures? RomanSpa 01:24, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's actually rather simple - check out polyploidy. Many Rosaceae fruit trees are triploid which could explain the ratio. (Triploid cultivars are easily recognized - they are those which cannot pollinate themselves or others and if planted alone they will not or hardly bear fruit no matter how mcuh they bloom.)

Talk:Hemudu culture

message: Based on the findings like Pengtoushan culture, there is a belief that the Chinese civilization originated in the warmer Yangtze River regions and, as climate became colder during Ice Age, then migrated to colder Yellow River regions where dry grains could grow better and survive the colder weather. The Hemudu culture is already a highly developed farming civilation with clear social structure. An earlier Chinese civilization is believed to have existed before Hemudu culture.
:Removed the above - no sources, and the info about the Ice Age is completely wrong. Archaeological evidence shows that the Neolithic in East Asia was likely much warmer and hotter than it is today.--Confuzion 23:29, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, wouldn't make any sense to migrate away from the warm region if the environment was getting colder, anyway.  Still, I added some paleoclimatology to clear up the issue.

Talk:List of American Gothic episodes

message: Many or all of the existing individual episode pages for this series appear to fail the notability guidelines for television episodes, and have been tagged accordingly.  These articles can be improved through the inclusion of real-world information from reliable sources to assert notability. Overly long plot summaries should be edited, to a maximum length of approximately ten words per minute of screen time. Trivia should be integrated into the body of the article, or removed if it is not directly relevant. Quotes and images should only be used as part of a critical analysis of the episode. You might also consider merging any notable information onto the show's "List of episodes" or season pages.  Otherwise, when these pages come up for review in fourteen days, they may be redirected, merged or deleted.

thread_title:  Better Description 

message: I added a mention of Defence Scheme No. 1 to the History section as it would have made heavy use of flying columns, and although it was purely theoretical, I think it helps demonstrate the potential strategic use of flying columns in a major war. I linked to War Plan Red because it is topical to any mention of DS1, but I am aware that DS1 was developed and retired prior the development and disclosure of War Plan Red, not in response to it, so I linked to War Plan Red without specifically mentioning it in order to avoid giving that impression. I wasn't sure how to fully format the references, so I just provided them as links.
I also rearranged the "History" section into chronological order, because I find that easier to read. I did this as a separate edit in case there was some rhyme or reason to it's former order, in which case it can be reverted.

Talk:Planet Gemini (band)

message: Planet Gemini will struggle to satisfy many of the elements considered for notability under WP:Rules simply because they are "underground" (internet-based).  They give all their music away free and do not tour.  They will not chart any hits -- or likely get any awards from music industry institutions.  As this (non-trivial, independent) review states, "[t]hey've largely removed themselves from the money-go-round that fuels so much of the music industry's ripoff environment, choosing instead to offer their recordings up for free downloading, with whatever ancillary cash they earn going for new equipment."  That alone makes them noteworthy, especially after ten years and eight albums, but WP:Rules ostensibly do not provide for odd ducks.  
They will be working with metal legend Vinny Appice on their upcoming album.  Perhaps some Wiki admin could alert Mr. Appice that they are non-notable.  More write-ups in non-trivial, independent publications:  , , , ,

My car repair handbook calls these things valve lifters, but reading this article on tappets, it does seem that it is what the term tappet should refer to. The specific part I'm referring to is the metallic cylinder that sits between the actual cam lobe and the valve stem itself (the latter of which obviously isn't visible in the image, as the tappet covers it) in order to take up the sideways friction of the moving cam lobe (or at least that is what I'm assuming is its purpose). --Dolda2000 23:46, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Diagram needed

message: * I disagree with the current (March 9, 2010) opening definition of a tappet. I propose to replace it with the following: "A tappet in mechanical engineering is that end of a push-rod which contacts the cam. The cam turns, and when the enlarged part of the cam reaches the tappet, it pushes the tappet (and, through the tappet, the push-rod) away from itself. A tappet is thus a cam follower. There are various designs of tappet." This is based on examining Fundamentals of Motor Vehicle Technology, pp. 44 and following, and Light and Heavy Vehicle Technology, p. 49.
**I would changed your definition to: "A tappet is that end of a push-rod which contacts the cam. As the cam turns it actuates the tappet, which actuates the push-rod. There are various tappet designs." The cam doesn't actually move the tappet away from the cam, it stays the same distance from the surface. Also, a tappet is more than a cam follower; see cam follower. Wizard191 (talk) 18:51, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

message: If the Newcomen Engine is dismissed as a precursor to "true" steam engines, then so must early Watt engines.  The early Watt engines used the incoming low pressure steam as a blanket to keep the cylinder warm, and used a separate condenser for the cold business.  Since steam was used to create the vacuum, and the air was not modified in any way (contrast to a Stirling Engine), it is the management of steam that is the fundamental principle; ergo it is a steam engine.
