Talk:Naum Gabo

message: I have wikified and detailed the article. The original article just had a long text but I have kept most of it and put it at the end. I still have not found out the reason for the choice of Gabo as a surname.Piersmasterson 10:01, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

message: see 
Martin Hamner and Christina Lodder, 'Gabo, Sir Naum (1890?–1977)', Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004  accessed 15 Feb 2007]
 "As a sign of his new sense of identity as a sculptor, he coined the pseudonym Gabo, to distinguish himself from his artist brother Antoine."
:According to ODNB, the family name was "Pevzner", which the Wiki editor transliterates as "Pevsner". His brother's name is given by ODNB as Antoine, not Alexei. === Vernon White (talk) 22:24, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I see there were two brothers, Alexii, older and Antoine, younger than Naum. The source of this information is a chronology in the catalogue of an Exhibition "Naum Gabo:constructions, paintings, drawings" at the Tate Gallery 15 March-16 April 1966, The show exhibited 108 items, of which 33 were three-dimensional. The introductory text in the catalogue is by Herbert Read. No clues on the origin of "Gabo" though!=== Vernon White (talk) 08:53, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety

message: This section is marked as unreferenced as it does not state who is making the criticism. Without a who it becomes POV. Please have a look at the corectly cited source in Speed_bump#Criticisms for  an example. Softgrow 10:18, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Criticism

message: A recent press release from PACTS about the UK Government's four-year-report on Safety Camera Partnerships contained misleading or out-of-context statements to bolster the message it wished to convey.  The PACTS press release may leave the reader with the impression that speed cameras were responsible for an annual reduction of 42% in the number of people killed or seriously injured at camera sites.  Whereas the study itself considers the contribution to the observed reduction in casualties, of trend and regression-to-mean (RTM) effects.  Table H7 summarises that for urban situations the cameras themselves are only likely to be resposible for 10.4% of the observed reduction of 54.5%, with RTM responsible for 34.8% and trend responsible for 9.3%.  The report also suggests in secton H1 that, although it did not calculate RTM effects for rural roads they were likely to be higher (therefore the camera contribution lower) than for urban roads.
: It's actually not a 'criticism', but a statement of fact.  Their press release about the report says one thing, the report says another.  Any reasonable reader of both would arrive at the same conclusion.  I've put the fact back, but with a more appropriate section title. De Facto 12:33, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

message: RCGB is a public document, produced by the DfT and available for download from dft.gov.uk in formats including PDF and spreadsheet.

replies: text: A liberty facility is a building or area designated to relaxing, eating, or generally doing something not work-related.  In this particular case, the liberty facility in Jebel Ali is a group of buildings, some shops, some restaurants and food stalls, around a paved open area with chairs, tables, and an overhead canopy.  It's situated inside the guarded area of the pier, and accessible to the personnel from the ship without having to go through any serious security.  Not all liberty facilities will have everything here, some might just have an open area with chairs and tables, and perhaps a vending machine or two. blackbird_4 06:54, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  I wondered the same.  Would this be a place where items like beer, bacon, Playboy magazines, cough syrup (and other items not likely to be permitted in a Muslim environment) are sold?  Perhaps with "working" women?  Women not confined to Muslim clothing restrictions, driving cars etc.?Thomas (talk) 15:00, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: No "working" women.  The only people inside this area would be either servicemembers of whatever ship ported there and the people who are employed by the vendors there.  So, Navy/Marines personnel and kiosk workers.  As far as what is sold, the Navy would not allow anything like Playboys from being sold, and I seem to remember the food items that were normally pork here in the States being beef there.  So, while there's no reason pork couldn't be sold there, since they're using local branches of restaurants, they would be selling whatever is normally sold in Dubai.  The entire area of the liberty facilities only covers an area of maybe 800 by 1000 feet (240 by 300 meters), of which not all of it is inside the security perimeter.  I honestly don't remember if there was beer there, as I don't drink it.--Blackbird_4 08:41, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

I understand this doesn't quite say that Francis was the biological father of Isabella's children, but given that it's pretty generally agreed that he was not the biological father of the children born to the marriage, isn't that "nonetheless" a bit misleading.  It seems to say, "Isabella thought he was effeminate, but nonetheless they had a lot of kids."
