Talk:Desi Arnaz Jr.

Untitled
Desi is a wonderful person and loves being the offspring of the world famous Lucille Ball. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 01:25, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Requested move 20 March 2016

The result of the move request was: moved. Just a reminder that the nominator does not have to give a support !vote; their support is presumed unless otherwise stated. Number  5  7  19:13, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Desi Arnaz, Jr. → Desi Arnaz Jr. – Per WP:JR, Wikipedia prefers to omit the old-style comma. Plus sources and external links show that the comma is most frequently NOT used for this guy in modern sources. Dicklyon (talk) 04:14, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Agree - I did however, made the article consistent for now. - Kiraroshi1976 (talk) 05:30, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Moving from one accepted style to another goes against WP:MOS ("Where more than one style is acceptable, editors should not change an article from one of those styles to another without a good reason.") and a couple of ArbCom decisions: Requests_for_arbitration/Sortan and Requests_for_arbitration/Jguk. The comma is still accepted style at WP:JR, and is found in modern sources in general and with Arnaz in particular, so no need to drop it here. Dohn joe (talk) 19:25, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The use of comma before Jr. is nowhere characterized as "accepted" in the sense that different variants of English and different reference styles are accepted. WP:JR, based on an RFC and in consideration of modern grammar and style guides, says "Omission of the comma before Jr./Jr/Jnr or Sr./Sr/Snr is preferred" in most cases.  The notion of multiple accepted styles is just not applicable here, and this move is not "without a good reason".  The reason is a consensus to move toward consistency with modern sources and modern styles. Dicklyon (talk) 22:25, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Support. Per MOS:IDENTITY, WP:ABOUTSELF, WP:NAMECHANGE: The subject himself no longer uses the comma, on official website at least as far as 2001, consistent with more recent homepage . This article should have moved years ago. But let's pretend we couldn't find this info, and analyze the other arguments. (see MOS:JR), per RfC at WP:VPPOL last week. It changed because consensus agreed that, based on overwhelming evidence of both modern style guides, and usage in recent reliable sources, it is clear the comma-laden style is now distinctly in the minority in modern sources, across all dialects, genres, and registers. Definitely true for this subject; Google News: . It is no longer true that there are two equally acceptable styles, on or off WP. MOS permits the comma – for BLPs proven to insist on it (the opposite is the case here), and for cases for which modern sources predominantly, not just sometimes, use that style (these two categories will probably have a 1:1 relationship; even Martin Luther King Jr. is predominantly spelled without the comma today; see RfC for details). That FUD up there about ARBCOM is an argument to emotion and a red herring; there is no conflict whatsoever between those cases' outcomes and this RM. ArbCom talking about multiple acceptable styles means acceptable in a specific context on Wikipedia according to MoS, not according to random offsite viewpoints (otherwise it would be permissible to use "ain't" in Wikipedia, and we could not have a style guide). Even if nothing had changed at MoS at all, there would still be no conflict, because it is perfectly valid to use a process like RM to gauge consensus about something; the ArbCom cases were about tendentious editwarring in an absence of any consensus that one option should be used rather than another. Apples and oranges. The above opposer is clearly misreading MOS:JR's plain wording in multiple ways, and misunderstanding how ArbCom works and what its decisions mean; it does not issue irrational edicts that styles the guideline deprecates cannot be replaced with those it prefers. It does not rule on content matters at all (including guideline content), only behavioral ones.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  07:49, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Support as nom – This is routine per the WP:MOS as SMcC points out. Dohn joe's reaction against fixing comma stylings to a more modern and widely preferred style, after an RFC re-affirmed it, is perplexing.  As for "MOS has changed", yes, it did, back to what it had said for years already, after a year of weirdness during which it said either style was acceptable, which Dohn joe took to mean he could move many articles back to using the excess commas; this is not one of those, but he is causing a lot of trouble elsewhere about this simple style issue. Dicklyon (talk) 15:15, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Support – The comma is not used consistently in reliable sources, if at all, and hence it should be omitted per MOS:JR. RGloucester  — ☎ 16:50, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * What do you mean, "if at all"? The comma is readily found, as it is with all these examples - it is still widely used. See here, here, here, here, here, here, here.... Dohn joe (talk) 17:03, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * For each of those, I can list a source that does not use the comma (e.g. here, here, here, here, &c). There is no consistent usage of the comma, and hence it should be dropped per the MoS. You've not provided any justification for not using the preferred style. RGloucester  — ☎ 18:18, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The justification comes from the WP:MOS itself: "Where more than one style is acceptable, editors should not change an article from one of those styles to another without a good reason." And from ArbCom: "Where Wikipedia does not mandate a specific style, editors should not attempt to convert Wikipedia to their own preferred style, nor should they edit articles for the sole purpose of converting them to their preferred style, or removing examples of, or references to, styles which they dislike." WP:JR does not mandate one style over the other - it expresses a preference. So we should not be editing articles just to change from one acceptable style to another. Dohn joe (talk) 18:55, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * There is good reason to remove the comma. Firstly, because the non-comma form is very common in RS. Secondly, because the MoS prefers that usage. Thirdly, the reasons why the MoS prefers that usage were clearly expressed in the RfC that made the preference, and those reasons apply here: the comma is often misused, is disfavoured by the vast majority of English style guides, and makes readability more difficult. There is no benefit to using a minority usage that isn't preferred by our MoS. If this were change for change's sake, I'd understand your argument. However, it isn't. The move makes sense. RGloucester  — ☎ 20:30, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

 * I understand having a preference, but when there are two acceptable styles out there - actually used by a significant percentage of RSs, as seen in any Google Books search, it hurts the project to needlessly deprecate a perfectly good style. sDohn joe (talk) 23:59, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * The comma is found in RS. A tiny minority of them that are current, and not even that many that are not until you get back into the 1980s. LOL. Dohn joe, are you serious planning to play this hand-waving game continuously, day after day, month after month?  Wouldn't it be more productive to save some of this ire for a case that actually has a snowball's chance?  Arnav himself does not use the comma. Virtually no modern sources do. I thought you liked the idea of following the sources.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  21:01, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Um..... If by "tiny minority" you mean "about half" and if by "back into the 1980s" you mean "the past 20 years" then I agree. Have a look-see at Google Books from 1995-present. Six on the the first page, four on the second, four on the third.... Even our friends at Oxford University Press use the comma for this fellow. If you plan to base your arguments on current usage you might want to know what that usage is. Dohn joe (talk) 23:59, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Already provided this once, but here you go again: [] Current RS news sources, in much larger quantity, and a strong majority without the comma, page after page.  So, what is your point exactly?  This is all academic. I trust your Gbooks counting. Congratulations: You've shown mixed usage, not strong favoring of the comma, ergo we don't use the comma. We know the subject does not use the comma, ergo we don't.  We know from the news sources that the RS in the aggregate mostly no longer using the comma, ergo we don't use it. Constrain the books search to 2005–present, the commas drop markedly, further evidence we're right to avoid it.  Four to zero in favor of that direction.  Even you really, really love the RfC closer's vague "toward" language, well, here's your toward. I really don't see what you hope to accomplish with these antics; it's a waste of time.  If you really love these commas so much, wouldn't it be far more constructive to go find notables whose official websites consistently (not just one page; people will check) use the comma, and ensure they do here?  That would actually serve an encyclopedic interest, since we don't want WP to be "pushing" a slightly inaccurate name for them just because whoever created the page didn't bother to check.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  00:49, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

This is just silly
We have ""Lucy's $50,000,000 baby," ($510,213,033 in 2021 dollars)". There is no reason to translate that number which is used to make a point, into 2021 dollars to nine(!!) significant figures. If it is necessary to put it into modern money then something like "(ten times that in 2023 dollars)" would work.Cross Reference (talk) 02:44, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Electronics/Symbols

Page http://wikibooks.org/wiki/Electronics:Symbols  contains images that are PNG files that have a lot of KB weight. Should they not have been exported as GIFs?

The policy is to use PNGs for all diagrams, and to only use GIFs for animations, partly because GIFs are currently encumbred by a patent. Carandol

PNG files actually have pretty good lossless compression. They're like bitmaps but with compression algorithms used. I don't think they have very much KB weight at all.

KB weight? as in kilobytes? look at the file sizes. they are usually less than 1 KB. not exactly huge files. - Omegatron 12:52, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

One thing that could be done is to take the text out of the image file then crush them with an png crushing utility see en:Wikipedia:How_to_keep_image_file_sizes_as_small_as_possible for details Theresa knott 13:14, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

 * I tried PNGCRUSH on a few of them and they are already about as small as possible. It could only reduce them by about 10 bytes max.  They are already really really small though.  <1KB is really good.  They are two-color images and compress very well.  I don't understand why someone is saying they are too big.  - Omegatron 15:51, 11 May 2004 (UTC)

 * Somewhat related. I modified Klunky.  See Electronics:Template for details. - Omegatron 23:46, 11 May 2004 (UTC)

 * It would probably be a good idea to have the text outside of the images, and also to have the images in separate files, for ease of editing. At least to have groupings like resistors, variable resistors, thermistors, etc. in separate files, and put the images next to each other, like Wanderer's BJT images.  Formatting is more difficult, that way, though.  I guess it would need tables... - Omegatron 21:06, 25 May 2004 (UTC)

Moved from article:

Not bad. The question is how big we want our pictures to be?

What would really be nice is to have some sort of circuit builder. That would be a great way to teach electronics, but it would probably be a lot of work.

Circuit builder of choice: mspaint.exe

 * I think we should use Klunky. I have mentioned this a million times.  It is easy, uniform, good look for the web, much much faster than mspaint, everyone can access it, etc. etc.  see Electronics:Template for more. - Omegatron 14:30, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Greek Alphabet
The Greek alphabet in the article appears to be missing omikron (it's after xi).

Probably the only person to receive the Noob rank by request.

Theories
These are just different theories that I have developed.

Time Travel
These are some of my theories on time travel.

Remembering the Past
In the Back to the Future movies, no matter how much the past was changed, Marty and Doc always remember the original timeline. My theory for this is that the "Ripple Effect" can only affect you if you're in it's path. In 1955, when George punches Biff, Marty is in that time. As the "Ripple Effect" goes to the future changing history, Marty isn't there (1985). Thus, the "Ripple Effect" can't change his memory. By the time he returns to 1985, the "Ripple Effect" has passed over, and he retains all his original memorys.

Remembering the Future
Now, this can get kind of complicated in the second movie, where Marty and Doc (as well as Jenifer and Einstein) are in the future when Biff changes the past. This can be explained by the fact that the future hadn't started changing (except for Biff disapearing, but that's another story), indicating that the "Ripple Effect" hadn't reached that time yet. When Marty and Doc (with Jenifer and Einstein of course) return to 1985(A), they jump over the "Ripple Effect" through the course of time traveling, and, again, retain their memorys.

Talk:Electronics/TTL

As far as I can see, this page describes RTL (Resistor-Transistor Logic) and not TTL. There is also DTL (Diode-transistor logic). DTL superceeded RTL and was in turn superceeded by TTL. TTL if I recall correctly was developed at least partly as a requirement of the Apollo moon program of the 1960s.

TTL as the name implies has 2 (at least) transistors in each gate. Key is the input transistor which often has multiple emitters. The emitters are free and used as the inputs for the gates. The base is connected via a resistor to +Vcc. Pulling down any of the emmiters will result in the collector of the input transistor being pulled down, which further transistors will pass to the output (perhaps with inversion to change functionality).

Errors
There are lots of things wrong here. It is RTL logic not TTL. The explanation of how current 'chooses' the path of least resistance is wrong. The battery in the diagrams is connected backwards. The base of the transistor is left floating instead of being either high or low voltage.

Churchfield Road

Churchfield Road, Acton, runs north of and parallel to Acton High Street. At the eastern end is the level crossing of Acton Central railway station after which it becomes East Churchfield Road. The western end forms a junction of which the northern road is Horn Lane, the southern Market Place and the western, the now pedestrianised King Street. St. Mary's Burial Ground lies on the southern side of the centre section of the road.

It has its own community association formed in 2001.

Retail
Churchfield road can be divided into two retail sections, the eastern end nearest the station and the western end nearest the mount that merges into the main shopping area. In recent years there has been a slight decline in the number of shops in the road with many of those closed remaining empty. The Sub-Post office at number 24 closed in 2010, after many years. Churchfiled Road has recently seen growth in independent retailers and other business practices such as estate agents, restaurants and cafes. Two new additions are Forbes Waterhouse, Bake Me and Sainsbury.

Public houses
The Station House next to the current Acton Central railway station was formerly the station building itself. It has previously been called The Central Bar and The Churchfield

The Albion at number 2, closed down in 2010 having been open since at least 1881.

The Rocket, formerly The Station Hotel at 11 & 13 has been open since at least 1881.

Foley's at number 115, formerly the Mechanics Arms closed down in 2011 having been open since at least 1889.

Famous residents
Lionel Bart lived at 33/35a Churchfield Road until his death in 1999.

Waitrose opened their second branch at 65 Churchfield Road in 1913.

Eric Ravilious was born at 90 Churchfield Road on 22 July 1903.

In popular culture
This area of West London is a popular location for filming as it is close to the BBC Television Centre as well as other studios. Several Monty Python sketches were filmed on Churchfield Road, and in the later years of Minder, the entrance to the Winchester Club was in Newburgh Road, just off Churchfield Road.

The Leo Sayer hit song "Orchard Road" referred to Churchfield Road, where Leo Sayer's ex-wife had moved out to after they separated. Sayer changed the name of the road as he felt Churchfield Road "didn't sing very well".

Road where Ajahn Brahm's father pulled over and said to him "Son, whatever happens to you in your life. However you turn out, Please know the door my house will always be open to you".

Non-Programmer's Tutorial for Python 2.6/Defining Functions

Creating Functions
To start off this chapter I am going to give you an example of what you could do but shouldn't (so don't type it in):

with the output being:

The absolute values of 23 and 23 are equal

The program seems a little repetitive. Programmers hate to repeat things -- that's what computers are for, after all! (Note also that finding the absolute value changed the value of the variable, which is why it is printing out 23, and not -23 in the output.) Fortunately Python allows you to create functions to remove duplication. Here is the rewritten example:

with the output being:

The absolute values of 23 and -23 are equal

The key feature of this program is the  statement. The  keyword (short for "define") starts a function definition. " " is followed by the name of the function " ". Next, comes the single function parameter named, " ". A parameter holds a value passed into the function from the program that "calls" the function. Parameters of a function in the  statement, must be enclosed within a parenthesis. The value that is passed to a function parameter is called an argument. So for now, a parameter and argument points to the same thing. The block of indented statements after the " " are then executed whenever the function is used. The statements within the function continue to be run until either the indented statements end, or a " " statement is encountered. The  statement returns a value back to the place where the function was called in the calling program.

Notice how the values of  and   are not changed. Functions can be used to repeat tasks that don't return values. Here are some examples:

with output being:

Hello Hello Welcome Fred width = 4 height = 5 area = 20

That example shows some more stuff that you can do with functions. Notice that you can use one or more parameters, or none at all. Notice also that a function doesn't necessarily need to "return" a value, so a  statement is optional.

Variables in functions
When eliminating repeated code, you often notice that variables are repeated in the code. In Python, these are dealt with in a special way. So far, all variables we have seen are global variables. Functions work with a special type of variables called local variables. These variables only exist within the function and only while the function is running. When a local variable has the same name as another variable (such as a global variable), the local variable hides the other. Sound confusing? Well, these next examples (which are a bit contrived) should help clear things up.

When run, we will receive an output of:

in print_func a = 17 a = 4 which is global variable assigned prior to the function print_func

Variable assignments inside a function do not override global variables, they exist only inside the function. Even though  was assigned a new value inside the function, this newly assigned value exists only within the   function. After the function finishes running and the value of an  variable is printed again, we see the value assigned to the global   variable being printed.

Complex example
The output is: in a_func a_var = 15 in a_func b_var = 115 in a_func d_var = 30 in a_func c_var = 25 a_var = 10 b_var = 15 c_var = 125 d_var = Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python24\def2", line 19, in -toplevel- print "d_var = ", d_var NameError: name 'd_var' is not defined In this example the variables,  , and   are all local variables when they are inside the function. After the statement  is run, they all cease to exist. The variable  is "automatically" a local variable since it is a parameter named by the function definition. The variables  and   are local variables since they appear on the left of an equals sign within the function in the statements:   and.

Inside of the function  has no value assigned to it. When the function is called with, 15 is assigned to   since at that point in time   is 15, making the call to the function. This ends up setting the value of  to 15 when it is inside of   function.

As you can see, once the function finishes running, the local variables  and   that had hidden the global variables of the same name are gone. Then the statement  prints the value  rather than the value   since the local variable that hid the global variable is gone.

Another thing to notice is the  that happens at the end. This appears since the variable  no longer exists since   finished. All the local variables are deleted when the function exits. If you want to get something back from a function, then you will have to use  statement within the function.

One last thing to notice is that the value of  remains unchanged inside   since it is not a parameter and it never appears on the left of an equals sign inside of the function. When a global variable is accessed inside a function, the function uses only value of the global variable but it cannot change the value assigned to the global variable outside the function.

Functions allow local variables that exist only inside the function and can hide other variables that are outside the function.

Examples
temperature2.py

Sample Run:

Options: 'p' print options 'c' convert from celsius 'f' convert from fahrenheit 'q' quit the program option: c Celsius temperature: 30 Fahrenheit: 86.0 option: f Fahrenheit temperature: 60 Celsius: 15.5555555556 option: q

area2.py

Sample Run:

Your Name: Josh Hello! Welcome, Josh To find the area of a rectangle, enter the width and height below. Width: -4 Must be a positive number Width: 4 Height: 3 Width = 4 Height = 3 so Area = 12

Exercises
Rewrite the area2.py program from the Examples above to have a separate function for the area of a square, the area of a rectangle, and the area of a circle. This program should include a menu interface.

Abraham Usque

Abraham ben Salomon Usque (given the Christian name Duarte Pinhel) was a 16th-century publisher. Usque was born in Portugal to a Jewish family and fled the Portuguese Inquisition for Ferrara, Italy, around 1543.

In Ferrara, Usque worked with Yom-Tob ben Levi Athias (the Marrano Jerónimo de Vargas), a Spanish typographer. Drawing on various earlier translations, Usque produced a new translation of the Hebrew Bible (the Tanakh) into Spanish. It was entitled "Biblia en Lengua Española Traducida Palabra por Palabra de la Verdad Hebrayca por Muy Excelentes Letrados, Vista y Examinada por el Oficio de la Inquisicion. Con Privilegio del Ylustrissimo Señor Duque de Ferrara." Usque intended the book for sale both to the Sephardic diaspora and to Christian Spaniards. For this purpose, he submitted a copy to the Inquisition, hoping to receive an imprimatur, and printed some books with a dedication to the Duke of Ferrara. Copies intended for sale to Jews were dedicated to Dona Gracia Nasi. It was published in folio at Ferrara in 1553 and known as the Ferrara Bible. This edition has become scarce, but a second was published in Holland in 1630. In this translation, the Hebrew text is rendered verbatim.

Other books published by Usque included the Portuguese classic Menina e Moça by Bernardim Ribeiro, and Consolação às Tribulações de Israel by Samuel Usque, whose kinship with Abraham has not yet been clarified.

Vasilis Papakonstantinou

Vasilis Papakonstantinou (Βασίλης Παπακωνσταντίνου) (born 21 June 1950) is a Greek singer known mostly for his work in Greek rock. Most of his songs have gained considerable popularity, mainly in Greece and Cyprus.

Early life
Vasilis Papakonstantinou was born in Vastas, outside of Megalopolis, Arcadia. In 1957 he moved to Athens along with his family. His adolescence was marked by the musical and social trends of the 1960s: Mikis Theodorakis, protest rock, international peace and According liberation movements, while Greece was trying to quickly heal the wounds of the Greek Civil War. Vasilis Papakonstantinou became a follower of the left without ever becoming a member of a leftist party. In 1973, after having served in the Hellenic Army, fulfilling his national service obligations, he moved to West Germany and settled in Munich. There he participated in anti-dictatorship organisations, campaigning against the Greek military junta of 1967–1974 and singing in places with a considerable Greek student and immigrant population.

Career
His first musical encounter was with Mikis Theodorakis in the summer of 1974, in Paris—their collaboration commenced two years later. In 1974, Vasilis returned to Greece following the fall of the dictatorship and embarked on a professional singing career, singing in clubs, and also recorded a 45 rpm gramophone record. That same year he collaborated on the recording of "Ta Tragoudia tou Dromou" (Road Songs) by Manos Loïzos.

In 1975, he recorded "Ta Agrotika" (Rural Songs) by Thomas Bakalako and met with two composers with whom he was going to work closely for many years: Manos Loïzos and Thanos Mikroutsikos, two composers that were bearing a fresh new sound to Greek music. Both of them promoted in new manners the songs of the big city without following faithfully the traces of popular or artistic music of earlier famous composers. Papakonstantinou's interpretation was ideal in expressing their dynamism and expressiveness. In 1976 his much anticipated collaboration with Mikis Theodorakis took place in the recording of "Tis Exorias" (Songs of Exile), and in 1978 the composer included Vassilis in the singers who took part in his international tour of Europe, the Americas and Australia. At home Papakonstantinou actively took part in youth and worker movement rallies, singing at strikes, meetings, anti-racist and anti-fascist concerts.

From that time on, just before the 1980s, Papakonstantinou began demonstrating influences from the international rock movement. He performed songs which had an obviously more thick sound and more acute and intervening lyrics. This trend appeared gradually in the two records that he recorded in the early 1980s; the first one was titled after his name and included songs written by Antonis Vardis and adaptations of songs written by Dionysis Savvopoulos, Mikis Theodorakis and Luis Lach. The second one "Fovame" (I fear) with songs composed by Manos Loïzos, Lakis Papadopoulos, Giannis Zouganelis and Giannis Glezos consolidated his profile from that time up to date. He met Nikolas Asimos and took part in his first record "Xanapes" (Say it again) by singing two songs. Assimos became the second person after Loizos, who influenced him a lot with his peculiar personality. In 1984 with his record "Dieresi" (Division) his new sound was finally established. In 1987 he reconfirmed it in "Heretismata" (Greetings) including songs by Nikolas Asimos, Aphrodite Manou, and Christos Tolios and by the mid-1980s Vassilis Papakonstantinou was considered one of Greeces most popular concert performers.

In April 1985, a 16,000 audience attended his first major personal concert at the Peace and Friendship Stadium and again in June 1988 at the Leoforos Alexandras Stadium on Alexandras Avenue. Vasilis, never received any support from the media; even though his era was eroting away as many suggested 8 years ago, however in the 19th festival of EDON (new democratic youth of CYPRUS- or as many would suggest the Communist youth) Vasilis managed to attract a 20,000 tickets sold-out audience, many managed to enter the concert by jumping over the walls and fences raising the sum of those who attended to around 23,000. Making it probably the biggest sold-out concert ever made on the island.

He united three generations of fans including a strong following of "educated" adolescent fans. At the end of the 1980s, he interpreted "difficult" songs with lyrics written by Kostas Tripolitis and music by Thanos Mikroutsikos. In between he sang "Chorevo" (I am Dancing) and in the new decade he sang for the second time after 1978 in "Stavros tou Notou" (Southern Cross) songs by Nikos Kavvadias and Thanos Mikroutsikos. Although his songs of the last years follow the sound of "popular" culture he has not hesitated to record LP albums on the verses of two of the most celebrated Greek poets. In 1984 he sang poetry by Kostas Karyotakis in a record named after the poet, and in 1993 "Fissai" (It is Blowing) had verses by Tassos Livaditis and music by Giorgos Tsegaris. He interpreted Nikolas Asimos again in 1992 in "Falimento tou Kosmou" (The end of the World) and in the last decade he made "Sfedona" (Sling). In 1995 he made "The Shikoni" (Impossible) cooperating with Alkis Alkeos, Christophoros Krokides, Vassilis Giannopoulos, Stamatis Mesimeris, Aphrodite Manou, Odysseas Ioannou and Minos Matsas. The last record that hit the market in April 1997 under the title "Pes mou ena Psemma gia na Apokimitho" (Tell me a Lie to Sleep), included songs of Nikolas Asimos, Apostolos Boulassikis (making his first appearance), Stamatis Messimeris, Giannis Ioannou, Vassilis Gianopoulos, Christophoros Krokides, as well as the song, "Malista Kyrie" (Yes Sir) by Giorgos Zampetas and Alekos Kagiantas.

Educational videos

This is just a simple list of some educational videos and movies that may be very useful for educational purposes.

Documentary filming and editing technique videos
The link below accesses a video of mine that relates to techniques I've used in Documentary Filmmaking.

I thought it might be useful to present them in a Video Tutorial:
 * http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-4223516475493964954

about learning and understanding
First there are these famous videos about learning itself. You can view these videos free online.

Both "A Private Universe" and "Minds of Our Own" start out with interviews of Harvard graduates on the day of their graduation. They are asked deceptively simple questions or given simple tasks, such as, given a bulb, wire and battery, can you make this light bulb light? A significant proportion of students cannot. These videos highlight the nature of understanding, and how too often our courses (at both the K-12 and college levels) are failing to properly help students understand what we are teaching. Instead, we are using tests of superficial and easily memorized facts and trivia, which are quickly forgotten by students after the course is over.

 * A Private Universe
 * Minds of Our Own
 * Private Universe: Science
 * Private Universe: Math

free dvd of the above: http://www.aprivateuniverse.org/order/ survey: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/smg/survey.pl

Non-Profit Documentary Videos and Series
These are some videos seen recently on TV channels such as PBS, The History Channel, The Discovery Channel, and so forth.

Comets: Prophets of Doom http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0805509/ http://store.aetv.com/html/product/index.jhtml?id=75605 about the theory that comets brought the components needed for the formation of life on earth

Little Ice Age: Big Chill http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0425199/ http://store.aetv.com/html/product/index.jhtml?id=74653 Interesting look at how a drop of a few degrees in temperature during the middle ages affected human life. Interesting things like about how wheat wouldn't grow well anymore, so people had to switch to potatoes, but the church said eating potatoes was evil.

How Art Made the World http://www.pbs.org/howartmadetheworld/ Great stuff on art and the meanings and origins of religious symbols and how they relate to social issues. How for example reminding people about their own deaths (like with the crucifixion) elicits fear and dislike for outsiders.

Modern Marvels http://www.history.com/minisites/modernmarvels Series on various topics, such as an episode on water. That episode explained some of the unique characteristics of water and how these characteristics helped facilitate life. It allso explained heavy water (water with an extra neutron), and how it is useful in nuclear power production (neutrons from the uranium rods bounce off water molecules rather than being absorbed by the water, thus better creating kinetic energy, or heat).

Palazzo Bevilacqua-Costabili, Ferrara

The Palazzo Bevilacqua-Costabili is a Renaissance palace located on Via Voltapaletto 11 in central Ferrara, Region of Emilia-Romagna, Italy. It should not be confused with the Palazzo Bevilacqua in Verona (begun 1529), designed by Michele Sanmicheli.

History
The palace was first commissioned by the Bevilacqua-Aldobrandini family in 1430 after the marriage of Cristin Francesco Bevilacqua and Lucia Ariosti. The initial facade design is attributed to Giovanni Battista Aleotti. In 1602, the palace was inhabited by Cardinal Bonifacio Bevilacqua, and in 1710, by Ercole Bevilacqua, Judge in Ferrara.

In 1830 the marchese Giovan Battista Costabili Containi bought and restored the palace. In 1916, count Francesco Mazza acquired the palace and it underwent multiple transitions and included a mental institute, supermarket, and movie theater. In 2006, the palace reopened after restoration; it is now home to the faculty of economics of the University of Ferrara. The piano nobile still has frescoed rooms, including some by Francesco Saraceni.

Talk:Puzzles/Arithmetical puzzles/Three Daughters

Clue 1 - product of ages is 36: Ages must be one of
 * 36, 1, 1 (although this is pretty unlikely)
 * 18, 2, 1
 * 12, 3, 1
 * 9, 4, 1
 * 9, 2, 2
 * 6, 3, 2
 * 4, 3, 3

Am I missing any?

Clue 2 - sum of ages is same as number of my house
 * 36 + 1 + 1 = 38
 * 18 + 2 + 1 = 21
 * 12 + 3 + 1 = 16

 * 9 + 4 + 1 = 14
 * 9 + 2 + 2 = 13
 * 6 + 3 + 2 = 11
 * 4 + 3 + 3 = 10

Since the salesman knows the number of the house, he should be able to work it out. If two of the sums were the same, and one of them had the largest two ages the same, then the third clue (My eldest daughter plays piano) would confirm that it was the other one.

So what is wrong with my math? I have missed something otherwise I would need clue 3. Nanobug 20:54, 10 Oct 2003 (UTC)

 * In the paragraph "since the salesman..." you have analyzed the situation perfectly! You are indeed missing one combination (hint: it adds up to 13) Thomas

The missing combination is 1, 6, 6. Combining with Nanobug's work above, the complete solution is:

Clue 1: Product is 36.

Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36. Find all combinations with product 36:

 * 1, 1, 36
 * 1, 2, 18
 * 1, 3, 12
 * 1, 4, 9
 * 1, 6, 6
 * 2, 2, 9
 * 2, 3, 6
 * 3, 3, 4

Clue 2: Sum is house number.

Sums are:

 * 1 + 1 + 36 = 38
 * 1 + 2 + 18 = 21
 * 1 + 3 + 12 = 16
 * 1 + 4 + 9 = 14
 * 1 + 6 + 6 = 13
 * 2 + 2 + 9 = 13
 * 2 + 3 + 6 = 11
 * 3 + 3 + 4 = 10

Clue 3: Eldest plays piano.

Presumably, this means there is no tie for oldest age. (Since the ages are only given to the year, it is possible for two to have the same age but one be elder than the other. Interpeted this way the clue tells us nothing. But the salesman derived pertinant information from it, so we must also.)

Now the salesman knows the housenumber (though we don't). Thus if the house number is other than 13, the salesman would have been able to figure out the answer after clue 2. So the number is 13. (I guess we know it after all :-). By clue three we eliminate 1, 6, 6. So the ages of the daughters are

 * 2, 2, and 9

Eric119 03:17, 11 Oct 2003 (UTC)

 * That's right. nice job, Eric! Thomas

 * Duh! Of course! Nanobug 20:37, 13 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Lasya

Lasya (लास्य) is a female dance form that originated in India. In Hindu mythology, Lasya refers to the dance innovated and performed by the goddess Parvati, described to be gentle and graceful. Described in the Natya Shastra, the feminine Lasya danced by Parvati is contrasted by the masculine Tandava dance of her consort, Shiva.

Etymology
The term lāsya is derived from the root ‘las’ meaning to play or to frolic. It is also translated as lively.

Legend
According to legend, the Lasya was taught by Parvati to Usha, the daughter of Banasura. Usha, in turn, is regarded to have taught the dance to the milkmaids known as the gopikas, who are believed to have spread the technique to women throughout the land.

Description
Described as the prototype of all female dancing, the Lasya is danced in a variety of forms, most of which comprise the small and seductive motions of the feet. Some forms of the Lasya consist of the rapid succession of minor steps, regarded to be erotic. During the performance of the dance, the feet are kept parallel and close to one another, each foot following the other with precision in time. An example of this dance is the Mohiniyattam of Kerala.

There are described to be four forms of the Lasya: Srinkhala, Lata, Pindi, and Bhedyaka.

Professor Inayat Khan in his book Munqar Musicar (1912) wrote: "Women and men both perform this dance and there are a number of recognized masters (ustad) of it in India. Lasya is accompanied by two sarangi players and a tabid, and sometimes a manjira (small indian cymbals). It is danced by one woman, or by two together".

 * Keep – A rather weak keep, because coverage is pretty thin (studio musician). But he may meet #C7 and #C10 of WP:MUSICBIO. There is one very good source, the long quote. There was a better source for playing on the Emmy award winning score [LA Times], when he sold his home. His credits (1978 to 2014) are listed at discogs, which is a crowd-sourced site and not exactly an RS. But these lists are usually pretty reliable as they are nothing more than transcriptions of credits and liner notes, and the contributors are pretty conscientious about it.  For all its limitations, discogs is the best source I know of for this kind of information. And I'm not bothered so much by the fact that the  contributors are SPAs. From the comments on the talk page, they seem to be people from the music industry in LA who know his work and think he should have an article. – Margin1522 (talk) 04:43, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Yes, know about the rule that user-generated content is never reliable. That's why it was a weak keep. We're all making rather weak arguments here. The nom objects to the article's creators, even though in theory articles "are not judged based on who created them, how active that creator is or was on Wikipedia" (WP:INVOLVE). We have an objection that the listed sources are weak, even though in theory !voters at AfD are supposed to search for additional sources (WP:BEFORE). Or maybe that applies only to the nom. I don't know. Every article that arrives at AfD has problems. It's easy to apply blanket rule or look only at the problems. If you look at the thousands of transclusions for Discogs artist, it's also clear that our authors want readers to know about it. There would be an uproar if we tried to delete that, even if it's only used in External links. I'm offering it here only as evidence that if Discogs says he has close to 300 credits, then it's very likely that we would find those credits if we actually went out and looked. – Margin1522 (talk) 08:23, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

MS Office installation
If I have a version of the 1-time non-subscription office software, I can obviously install it on my PC.

If I later rebuild the PC (format and reload the operating system from the recovery information), are there any issues with reinstalling the office onto the SAME PC? -- SGBailey (talk) 10:11, 14 September 2019 (UTC)
 * If you are referring to a recent version of Office such as Microsoft Office 2019 or Microsoft Office 2016, I do not foresee any significant barriers to this. Office uses online electronic activation, so you will need to make absolutely sure that you have retained the product key code and the installation media, so that you can restore the software and re-activate it (which should be as simple as clicking through a wizard in the application itself.) If you have lost the product key, apparently there are applications which are capable of scouring the filesystem in search of it, but that only works if you haven't wiped the HDD first.

Topic talk:Networking

This section is sadly blank right now :( . Much as I love networking I am only CCNA certified right now; I will add content where I can, and hopefully others will make this section worthwhile. Bell017 04:41, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

=First Draft= I've used Topic:Scientific Computing as a template, and authored appropriate text. The course list at this point is wholly suggestive, though I am working on a Networking Introduction. Points that need consideration: Dfrauzel 01:50, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The image (tin cans and string) is copied from Wikipedia, and I am unsure of the licensing situation, or how to proceed. I wanted an image that gets attention and is immediately accessible - not just another generic mug shot of two anonymous ice cubes (that's RJ45 heads in trade lingo... I think).
 * The Intro section was inspired by the intro at Scientific Computing, but it's a good candidate for refinement.
 * That said, what exactly are we talking about here? The skills necessary to get a job as a Network Engineer? (And what skills are those?) Knowledge necessary to pass an exam like Network+? The ability to program a Cisco 2610? Discuss!
 * That said, what kind of students and culture do we expect here, or should we encourage, here? In my experience, many students are compelled to enter the field because of the impression of cool-sounding toys (T1 routers and gigabit switches), or elevated complexity, or increased pay. But the role of the network in any business is implicitly to serve the business (not the network administrator), and that means courses should stress soft skills like effective communication (including business writing and grammar?), objective troubleshooting, and a strong sense of skill identity - knowing what you know, so that you're not flustered at the interview table or, worse, by unexpected responsibilities on the job!

Fresh Meat
It has been a while since anyone posted here, so I dont know if there is any development currently underway. I definitely think we need to refine who the anticipated audience is and what we hope to achieve. I find myself torn between wanting to duplicate many of the elements and topics taught in a traditional university, and wanting coursework that is more practical. As an example, I'm tired of seeing the OSI model in the first chapters of any networking book, when from a practical standpoint it has little value to the average LAN/WAN administrator, yet the OSI model is something that would be discussed in a typical university environment. If we go with duplicating the more traditional university topics and format, I think we may need to rename some of these topics. Regardless, I believe there is a lot of value in restructuring what other people have begun into a laddered framework of ever-advancing topics, and culling out some of the less professional entries (like the so you've been hired as a network administrator). What do others think? EricPrice 04:18, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Can we do both? Could we have them compliment each other, but not detract from each others strengths? --Remi0o 06:14, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

 * In fact I think we can. I gave it more thought after I originally posted, and if you take a look at some of the proposed topics I posted on the page I hope its clear how I intend to proceed. I propose pulling the "legacy" networking information that might be of interest to some or that is often required for network certification into its own group of lessons, but otherwise avoid them in classes like the introduction where frankly, I think it can be more than a little overwhelming and not practically applicable to much in real life for the casual learner. EricPrice 17:41, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * The Wikiversity founders themselves have stated that the goal of the project is not to precisely duplicate a university experience, but exploit and explore the possibilities of a Wiki. In that sense, I agree that stodgy topics like OSI not be presented first thing in the course - but on the other hand, there are so many starting points for this topic that it's not really fair to single out one specific path for everyone to take. (Anyhow, a Wiki is about collaborative projects, not just a prepared series of topics.) Ah, and in defense of "So you've been hired as a network admin...", the idea there is to point out some common challenges newby network techs and admins run into. Ultimately, the goal of any university is to get a job. Having worked with students getting started in this field, I find the majority of them are perfectly capable of absorbing the knowledge and passing the tests, but they remain intimidated by what's actually expected of them on the job. Moreso, there are lots of topics that none of the certs and very few university courses ever talk about: like corporate politics (IT gets exposed to a lot of it), small business practices (limited budget, no documentation, being on your own with a lot of tough problems), and soft skills in general - this is the perfect venue for sharing real-world experiences, let's please not confine ourselves to rote theory and RFC-style formality! Dfrauzel 20:48, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Network Administration
Is the networking department the appropriate place for discussion of the various network operating systems? While I cant find it at the moment, I ran across another section of the Computer Science School where Network Administration had been segmented from Networking. My personal feelings are that, while the two are obviously interrelated, NOS Administration topics and lessons dont really belong here. I think I will spend the weekend roughing out lesson ideas for each of the sections I added last night, and perhaps working on the first one in detail. EricPrice 19:02, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * That's really the domain of "system administration"... but let's not be picky. The one usually requires skills in the other and vice versa - and in today's budget-minded market, most hiring companies want someone who knows both. Plus, they're complementary topics, and a blended learning approach is more interesting I think. As long as it's not so much information it's intimidating... well, that's a challenge for anyone studying or teaching in this industry. It does bring up, again, the question of how we're going to structure this school. Have any of other schools really developed over the last few months, could we use some of them as examples? Dfrauzel 20:51, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Merge and organize
A merge with Topic:Computer networks has been proposed. Please discuss here or there. Thanks! CQ 06:21, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Filmmaking Basics

Correction: Celtx no runs on all major operating systems. No need to use Final Draft.

Issue: It appears that this course cannot be completed without a Macintosh. Either this should be changed, or should be explicitly mentioned at the beginning of the lesson. The Jade Knight 02:44, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Done
 * This has now been addressed at the beginning of the lessons. Most software needed for this course is available for both the Wintel PCs and the Mactell PCs (and the old PowerPC Macintosh computers) but the instructor uses a Macintosh.  Linux and other operating systems are not supported.  Robert Elliott

Good stuff...
I use the Vegas Suite and me camera, but this will certainly improve my baby home videos ;) Now if only my DVD burner hadn't been pooched in the move.--Dnjkirk 01:37, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Should these be placed in Category:WikiU Film School? Please help resolve this issue. Just a note from Maintenance. Thanks CQ 01:59, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Yes... and no
 * These pages are part of a single lesson which eventually grew too large. All the pages should all have some category for the film school but they should also have a category for an experimental project.  During the development of these pages, I calculated that this project when completed would require as many as 4,000 pages.  I began to realize that might be excessive. I am still thinking what to do with this lesson.  Robert Elliott 10:12, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

History
The journal was founded by the Council on Religion and Law (CORAL) in 1982 and Hamline University School of Law provided the first editorial home for the journal. JLR published its first issue in the summer of 1983. Then Harvard Law Professor Harold J. Berman, Emory Law Professor Frank S. Alexander, and former Hamline University School of Law Dean Stephen B. Young are credited with spearheading and strongly supporting the creation of JLR.

JLR's inaugural general editors were Michael Scherschligt and Wilson Yates, and the editorial board included prominent scholars who would shape the emerging field of law and religion such as Douglas Sturm, Harold J. Berman, Edward Gaffney, Robin Lovin, and Thomas Porter.

In 2013, the journal moved to the Center for the Study of Law and Religion, based in Emory University's School of Law, where it continues to be edited and published in collaboration with the Cambridge University Press. The new editorial board's first issue was published in February 2014 (Volume 29, Issue 1). This issue focused on a symposium titled "The Pursuit of Happiness in Interreligious Perspective" featuring articles by the 14th Dalai Lama, Matthieu Ricard, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, Professor Michael J. Broyde, Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori, Professor Luke Timothy Johnson, Professor Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Professor Vincent J. Cornell, and Professor Khaled Abou El Fadl.

In 2021, to better fulfill its mission of publishing "cutting-edge interdisciplinary, interreligious, and international research on critical issues of law and religion," the journal added eleven new co-editors (see Editorial Board) with diverse disciplinary backgrounds and research interests from institutions in the United States, Europe, Africa, and Asia.

Palm Beach Speedway

Palm Beach Speedway was a motor sports racing venue located in West Palm Beach, Florida. The speedway hosted a total of 7 NASCAR races between January 20, 1952 and December 11, 1956. Dick Rathman had the most poles at 3, and Herb Thomas captured the most wins with 4. The half mile dirt oval was built in 1949, paved in 1955 and torn down in 1984.

Palm Beach Speedway's inaugural NASCAR race was also the season opener for the Grand National 1952 season. Six Thousand fans gathered for the 100 mile event, and looked on as Tim Flock started on the pole, and reached the checkered flag ahead of 26 other drivers. Flock captured his 9th career win driving a Hudson Hornet owned by Ted Chester. Lee Petty finished second and Tim's brother Fonty Flock finished third. Pancho Alverez was driving a 1951 Olds 88, but was catapulted into the air landing on the roof to flatten the car. Fans cheered when Alverez crawled out uninjured.

The final NASCAR race at the track came on March 4, 1956 as Billy Meyer taking the final checkered flag. The 100 mile event was marked by a disqualification which would play a part in final finishing order. Al Keller beat Billy Meyer to the checkered flag, but was found to running with modified pistons, and Meyer was awarded the victory. Buck Baker and Herb Thomas grabbed the second and third spots respectively.
