Talk:Market clearing

message: Showing an empty store to illustrate the idea of market clearance is misleading. The intuitive interpretation of the phenomenon of empty store shelves, is a supply shortage. A casual reader might infer that market clearance implies a breakdown of supply, rather than the healthy balance of supply and demand at an equilibrium, which is how the term is used and understood.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.238.58.161 (talk) 17:46, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a stylized depiction of "market clearing" just as most economic theory uses a stylized, single period version of market clearing. The caption qualifies that this is an unusual situation in retail. And no, market clearing does not mean a "healthy balance of supply and demand," it means the sale of all supply. It doesn't imply that demand is satiated.--Bkwillwm (talk) 03:38, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

The parents were given a suspended sentence. Lou was also ordered to testify in a number of divorce cases, but was never charged himself.

Talk:Sound baffle

message: Issue city. Sound Baffles are not used to reduce acoustic level, soundproofing is. Baffles are used to alter acoustic characteristics *within* the room by changing characteristics of the surfaces within the room. It's a bit like comparing blackout curtains with stained glass mirrors.
This is done with differing materials. Open cell foam absorbs high end frequencies, causing the reverberation of said high end within the room to dull. Heavy stonewool does the opposite, and diffusion panels like the one in the picture increase reverberation but diffuse away direct echoes, helping eliminate ghost notes, for example. 146.198.167.11 (talk) 14:57, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

In Zdoom, Lost Souls will fight it out to the death.

They are the smallest creature in Doom1/Doom2.
AFAIK the Zombieman is the "smallest" creature featured in the Doom series and, aside from zombies, the smallest demon is the Imp.

thread_title: Attribution

message: I do not know wht WIKIPEDIA uses the confusing term of THE GULF for this page. There are many gulfs on this planet but we are talking about the war in the Persian Gulf.
Wikipedia should ne independent and neutral in presentation of historical names such as the Persian Gulf that UN recognized it too.
Pejman
First, there is no monolithic "Wikipedia", but a concensus of contributors.  As noted in this article, Gulf War was the term used by most of the western media (notably CNN).  This is the English version of Wikipedia, therefore many references are Anglo-American centric.  Take a look at the French article  for a different POV.
On a personal note, I do not like Gulf War:  it is a very ambiguous name (as noted in the articloe). I never saw the Gulf until after the war, and I never fought "in the Gulf", but on land.  I would prefer Liberation of Kuwait, but there was a consensus, and rightly so, on Gulf War.  
There is no way to please everyone on this issue, but a decision was made.  Let's stick to it and get on with more important issues.
If the UN recognized the conflict as Persian Gulf War, please give an attribution and it will be included in this article.

Talk:Metric space/Archive 1

message: "The space M is called totally bounded if for every r > 0 there exist finitely many open balls of radius r whose union equals M."
Shouldn't this be "whose union CONTAINS M"? It seems silly to say, for example, that [0,1] is not totally bounded.
:There's no difference, because strict containment is impossible - M is the whole space, and therefore contains all the balls. (And [0,1] is certainly totally bounded. Note that open balls of [0,1] need not be open in R.) --Zundark 17:41, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

message: I have attempted to organise the section on "Further definitions and properties", which previously read like "other stuff", with a list of facts - useful reference for a mathematician but not much use to someone ploughing through for the first time.

#added subheadings
#expanded on totally bounded, adding context, making the "it can be shown that" a bit more specific without (I hope) getting too bogged down in details
#slight reordering of chunks
#added context for distance point to closed set.  I put it in the "separation" subsection - it is a concrete demonstration of complete regularity.
#added context for isometries - the reason these things are done is usually to get some embedding happening!

Talk:Strain energy

message: This is a pretty simple definition of strain energy, considering that stress (sigma) and strain (epsilon) are both tensor quantities. They also don't need to be constant throughout an object. I see that this page is listed under chemistry rather than solid mechanics, so maybe in this application the definition is simplified. Generally, though, the strain energy of a solid is the volume integral of 1/2 times the stress tensor double dotted with the strain tensor (Section 10.5 of Structural Analysis by Bauchau and Craig).
that was a rather science based definition of strain energy. anyone know the definition of strain energy, and its formula?
I dont know
So is strain energy the enrgy that holds things together? The bonds between the particles that enable things to hold their shape, and thus when other types of energy are acting upon it then the strain energy is affected and the shape distorts?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.104.44.143 (talk) 09:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
