Talk:Clean living movement

message: I noticed that in the final paragraph deviates from the rest of the section, both in style and tone. It seems run through with grammatical errors and due to it's lack of citations, to be more opinion than factual. 
Following are the sentences I am taking issue with;
   
By the early twenty-first century eugenics in the form of bioengineering and reproductive technology led to some parents to attempt to attain a "perfect" or designer baby.
In contrast to the earlier movements, “reformers” of the era were often well-financed large grass-roots, not-for-profit, and even governmental organizations founded, or led, by activists. 
Some reformers began to blame “the system” rather than encouraging individuals to take personal responsibility for their behaviors. This attitude led to crusades that included litigation against tobacco manufacturers, alcoholic-beverage distributors, and pharmaceutical and other corporations. 
Behaviors once thought to be “sins” or “bad habits” had now become “diseases.” As of 2006 interest in some of these reform campaigns has abated to some extent.
I feel this needs to be rewritten to improve overall readability and backed with sources to soften it's opinionated feel, or removed. I am not interested in reworking this, but wanted to offer someone else the chance before deleting it.

Talk:Cooling vest

message: If you google a search of "phase change cooling vest" you will find cooling vests and other apparel which use RPCM (Renewable Phase Change Material).  The nearly clear oil-like substance hardens into a waxy white substance.  When applied to the skin via a cool pack, it cools at a consistent 58 degrees Farenheit (15 C). Thus, it cools the skin without freezing and typically lasts from 1 to 2 hours.  Because of the low "freezing" temperature cools packs can be hardened in 20 to 30 minutes in ice water, or 60 to 90 minutes in a freezer, or 2 to 3 hours in the refridgerator.
None of the clothing suited for the cool packs needs to be wet.  Thus, the cool packs work at 58 degrees F (15 C) until they are almost completely depleted in most any temperature extremes regardless of humidity. Evaporative cooling devices need to be wet and only cool up to 12 degrees below ambient temperature.  Plus they do not work well in high humidity or little air circulation.
Like any other frozen substance, melting begins because of temperature differential.  Obviously, extreme heat and direct skin contact deplete them quicker.  However, I have two 6" square RPCM packs which I have let sit out between 18 to 24 hours in a 70 degree Farenheit room. (They were touching and stacked.)  Even after that period of time the cool packs remain between one-half and one-third charged. Amazing.
Therefore, even if your ice water is depleted, it simply needs to stay cooler than 60 degrees to keep the phase change material from melting. I suggest having the cool packs frozen before you ice them for the first time because they really suck the cold out and melt ice quickly.
The Phase Change material is supposedly developed by Nasa and is made primarily from fats and oils. Thus the FDA declare them "food safe" though consumption is not suggested.  If broken, the phase change oil may simply be washed away with soap and water.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.198.154.17 (talk) 19:56, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Etel Adnan

message: What were the names of her parents? She claimed in an interview that her father served as Governor of Smyrna, presumably during WWI during the Greek genocide. However, it looks like either Nureddin Pasha or İzzettin Çalışlar was the military of Smyrna in 1922, neither of whom appear to be her father. So I'm not sure. It would also be interesting to know more about her mother's experience as a survivor of the Greek genocide. Presumably her mother, a poor Greek girl, survived by marrying a wealthy Ottoman officer, and was spared the fate of the 100,000 Greeks and Armenians who died. Does Adnan ever write about the Greek genocide, in those terms? As an Ottoman officer, was her father complicit in or a perpetrator of genocide, did he defect and flee? It beggars belief that her father could have been a high-ranking Ottoman officer in Smyrna at that time and for him not to have a connection to the Greek genocide, so it would be interesting to have more historical information. She has said that she grew up "in a house with two refugees"...I would like to know how her father was a refugee. There seems to be parts of her family narrative that are missing, but I can't find any sources. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 06:46, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Declaration of Geneva

message: 1. I cannot find a reference to the declaration as being "a formulation of that oath's moral truths that could be comprehended and acknowledged modernly." That should probably be changed to a quote from the WMA Manual of Ethics, pg 24  "to update the Hippocratic Oath for 20th century use."
2. A more neutral link of the original Declaration of Geneva than euthanasia.com should be considered if a copy of the original is deemed necessary.
3. Although a discussion of the meaning/importance of the revisions to the declaration may be useful, the final section of the page seems biased to the pro-life POV.  The major criticism of the current version of the Declaration appears to largely come from the pro-life arena.
4. I think a return to an earlier version which delineates the history of the Declaration as a reaction to the Nazi atrocities and the text of Declaration itself might be better.  With perhaps a discussion of its linking to the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Code of Medical Ethics .

message: There are several problem with this section. First, although it is clear that the superior colliculus is part of the circuit that controls saccades, it's misleading to say that " the area of the brain that controls saccades is the superior colliculus". There is a complete circutry that controls eye movements, not a simply a region. Second, it is said that the fastigial nucleus is part of the superior colliculus; this is simply false (the fastigial nucleus is part of the cerebellum). On top of this, this section is poorly written. For these reasons I deleted the phrase: "The area of the brain that controls saccades is the superior colliculus, specifically the fastigial oculomotor region (FOR)".

message: Citing a single article, it is mentioned that motor learning utilises APPGs, without so much as a mention of what APPGs are. I suggest that the part mentioning them either be removed or further elaborated in order to make the article accessible to lay audience. The 2006 article proposes a model introducing the whole concept of APPGs. However, it remains very unclear as to what the mainstream consensus is relative to APPGs in general, let alone their significance in dysmetria.
