message: Calculation of the radii of the spheres of the hexlet from the 3 radii of the initial spheres
I committed this document: http://mathmj.fr/geogebra/hexlet.pdf which shows that elementary calculations of geometry make it possible to calculate the radii of the 6 spheres of a necklace from the 3 radii of the initial spheres, then To express the links between them. If R is the radius of the bounding sphere, and if a and b are the radii of the first two spheres tangent to each other and tangent internally to the first sphere, it may be remarked in particular that the harmonic means of the radii, areas and volumes of the 6 Spheres of the Necklace are constants dependent only on a, b and R, the standard deviation of the inverses of the rays or of the areas is also constant, but not that of the inverses of the volumes.
All these assertions can be verified from the following relationships between the six rays r1, r2, r3, r4, r5, and r6 of the necklace:

message: The reference to Domenico Fontana as the architect of this fountain is obiously wrong. Just underneath the great inscription at the top, with a pair of binoculars, one can read the name IOANNES FONTANA ARCITECTVS, and further on you may (barely) catch the words LUCA FANENSIS. The name IOANNES obviously refers not to Domenico, but rather to his brother Giovanni. The Acqua Felice page on the Italian Wikipedia has Giovanni as the architect. LUCA FANENSIS refers to Luca Orfei from Fana, who is the artist behind the great inscription. The inscription, by the way, is one of many around Rome by Luca Orfei which represent a new style of lettering. Other examples are the Laterano, the Quirinale and the Vatican obelisks.

thread_title: economics

message: The statement, "In set theory, a set is finite if and only if every non-empty family of subsets has a minimal element when ordered by the inclusion relation.", occurs in this article.  I am wondering if it should be modified to say "Maximal" instead of "minimal;"  The empty set is included in every family of sets, finite or not, and it is certainly a minimum set, if not a "minimal" set.  Is the distinction between minimal and minimum in play here?  To be clear, I am NOT presuming to make this edit; I am seeking clarification of the concept of minimal for my own understanding.  I would very much appreciate a reply to my question; reply to <raymonda@zianet.com>.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.22.14.156 (talk) 00:26, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

thread_title: [[Parasitoid]] Insects

message: This article has numerous contradictions, in re: article states adults "always lead free lives", yet cites Strepsiptera, which frequently live inside their host. Article's lead sentence implies all insects that are parasitic on other insects are entomogphagous, but then states criteria which are clearly contradictory in many exemplars which follow. 
Article devolves into a hodge-podge of definitions and examples of different types of parasite. It appears a shotgun approach to defining parasites, and as such is extremely confusing and in desperate need of refinement. Can an expert help?Nickrz (talk) 00:26, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  This has been hanging about unresolved for many years now. The IP was correct, social parasitism had nothing to do with the topic, so I removed it. The IP is also correct that the article is confused about entomophagy and being a parasitoidal insect; there are articles on both, and they don't have much to do with each other, really. The article consists of WP:SYNTH, or "a muddle" to use a plain word for it. Since it was attempting to discuss insect parasitoids, I shall just redirect it; the alternative is straight deletion.

Talk:Jessup, Pennsylvania

message: I don't have the stats on this, but from what I know about the town (my father and grandfather were born there), the first wave of immigrants in the 1890s were from Austria-Hungary (Galicia and Hungary).  They were Slovak, Polish, Rusyn, Hungarian, and a few Jewish.  Later, around 1915 or so, the Italians came.  When the flu epidemic of 1919 hit, the Italians did not have a cemetery of their own and had to use the side of St. Michael's (Slovak) cemetery to bury their dead.  The site of the Italian graves is here: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=jessup,+pa&hl=en&ll=41.471118,-75.555857&spn=0.000584,0.000831&sll=38.883585,-77.003672&sspn=0.009705,0.013304&hnear=Jessup,+Lackawanna,+Pennsylvania&t=h&z=20

Talk:Closing In

message: Early Man is a heavy metal band from Brooklyn, New York, now based in Los Angeles, California. Guitarist and vocalist Mike Conte began performing under the name "Early Man" in the early 2000s, and when drummer Adam Bennati moved to New York in 2003, the two formed the nucleus for the current line-up. Drawing influence from bands such as Black Sabbath, Mercyful Fate, Megadeth, Judas Priest, Kreator, Celtic Frost, and early Metallica, their traditional approach quickly gained the attention of the independent music scene and they released their first EP in early 2005 on Monitor Records. Matador Records quickly signed them and released their debut LP, "Closing In", in the fall of the same year. Lead guitarist Pete Macy was added to the band's lineup in 2005. The band has used several bass players over the years and at times will perform without one.
The band cut ties with Matador Records and signed with The End Records in 2008. They released "Beware The Circling Fin", a 4-song EP on October 14, 2008, and tours with Iced Earth, High On Fire, 3 Inches Of Blood, Toxic Holocaust, Skeletonwitch, and Valient Thorr soon followed. The follow-up to the group's debut album is entitled "Death Potion". It was recorded and produced by Jack Endino. "Death Potion" was released on July 20, 2010, and the band did a fall tour with Evile and Bonded by Blood. Prior to the tour Mike Conte announced that he had officially cut ties with Adam Bennati. The band is currently using various touring drummers for live shows.
In July 2011 it was announced that Mike Conte is the Composer for a new show debuting on the Cartoon Network called Secret Mountain Fort Awesome. Conte does all of the music for the show which will premiere in the fall of 2011 and will air a sneak peek on the Cartoon Network on August 1, 2011 at 8:30pm  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.193.83.130 (talk) 09:50, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
