Its OK doing things at SL level where he has excelled, but wonder why he has never done much on the International stage? He is very talented especially with his kicking and motivational skills etc. Is it that Sinfield plays much better by bossing the show rather than following somebodyelse who is captain? Is it that the GB Coaches have not used him correctly? There is a vast difference between the slower and poorer SL and then stepping up to play International level, but others like Hall, Roby, Graham have managed it despite having a less influential role at SL level than Sinfield has. There must be something why such a standout in SL has failed to make any impact at all on the international stage.
Some guys just fit into a certain system and make the most of that. KS has made a career based on his strengths.

Oh,yeah! GREEK WEDDING is overrated as hell. I gave it 7/10 (like many people did) while a lot of people in my family say it's one of the best they've ever seen (even my grandma, who doesn't really like comedies). I'm guessing it's the whole "people from different nationalities/races/religions getting married, while their families clash" element -- that's something most people can relate to.
By the way,has anyone ever seen the TV series/spinoff MY BIG FAT GREEK LIFE? I rented the DVD with all the episodes(not shocking since it only lasted 7 episodes).
Wait.SchumacherH8ter:Were you asking if she's ever been in a good movie,or if she's ever given a good performance?

Maybe if Michael Bay saw this BRATZ film, he would have not made any Transformers Films.
And maybe if Peter Berg saw this film, he wouldn't have directed Battleship.
I know it's way too late, but it sounded like a good theory!

|TCG image
May the winds carry their charred remains to a more peaceful place.
- Kinivus the Focused TCG
Lava Burst is a shaman ability learned at level 34 for those with the elemental and restoration specializations. It deals fire damage, but will also crit if [Flame Shock] is on the target.
Modified by
- [Echo of the Elements] (talent)
- [Ascendance] (core ability, elemental effect)
- [Flametongue Weapon] (core ability)
- [Spiritwalker's Grace] (core ability)
- [Elemental Reach] ( elemental spec ability)
- [Lava Surge] ( elemental spec ability)
- [Mastery: Elemental Overload] ( elemental spec ability)
- [Elemental Fury] ( elemental spec ability)
- [Elemental Focus] ( elemental spec ability)
- [Spiritual Insight] ( restoration spec ability)
- If Flame Shock is applied for the first time while Lava burst is traveling to the enemy (in other words, after Lava Burst has been cast), the 100% critical strike chance will not apply.
- The Flame Shock DoT only has to be active upon completion of casting Lava Burst. If the DoT wears off while the Lava Burst projectile is traveling, it will still crit.
- Rotations should be timed around utilizing Lava Burst as much as possible.
- PvP - Lava burst and [Chain Lightning], which has no traveling time, if cast in succession will generally hit at the same time for spike damage.
Patch changes
- Patch 5.3.0 (21-May-2013): Lava Burst now has a 2 second cast time, up from 1.5 seconds, and deals 25% more damage.
- Patch 5.2.0 (5-Mar-2013): Lava Burst base damage has been reduced by 33% but now always deals a critical strike. When cast on targets affected by Flame Shock, it now deals 50% more damage.
- Patch 4.0.6 (8-Feb-2011): Lava Burst's damage has been increased by roughly 10%.
- Patch 3.2.2 (2009-09-22): This ability no longer ever consumes a Flame Shock debuff off of the target.
- Patch 3.0.3 (04-Nov-2008): The base damage has been increased by approx. 10%.

Physical Therapist Richard Szabala Responds:
Electrical Stimulation has many uses in outpatient physical therapy.
It can be used as a source of pain relief, for swelling reduction and for muscle re-education, depending on the settings you apply to your machine.
Pain Relief
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation or TENs is generally used for pain relief. It works by sending signals to your brain to block pain signals.
Swelling Reduction
High Volt Electrical Stimulation can be used for swelling reduction. It works by creating an electrical response in your small blood vessels or capillaries, which allows them to open up more and drain the soft tissue better.
Strengthen Muscles
Functional Electrical Stimulation is used to increase strength in weakened muscles. It works by stimulating the neuro-muscular junction to produce a strong contraction within the muscle. If you sustain the contraction long enough and with several repetitions, it can, in theory, improve muscle strength. It will only work in severely deconditioned muscles (where there is a severe loss of function).
There is some scientific research evidence which supports all forms of electric stimulation listed above, and can be beneficial in a therapy setting.
All of the Catholic Health outpatient rehab facilities can provide electric stimulation as an adjunct to your physical therapy. Click here to find a rehabilitation center near you.

Something about drugs, and El Paso, and Mexico, and money. Honestly…they kept everything so vague throughout the whole movie I don't know if I ever quite "figured" it out.
Expectations going in:
Well…if a movie has Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, and Michael Fassbender…I assume it is going to be a GREAT movie.
Another reason this movie should have been GREAT…it was written by Cormac McCarthy who wrote All The Pretty Horses, No Country for Old Men, and The Road. This was his screenwriting debut.
My Take:
1. I had a physical reaction to this movie it was so bad.
2. Cameron Diaz is a really bad actress. She should stick to romantic comedies.
When the movie went from bad to worse:
Just wait until you see what Cameron Diaz has sex with. Just wait. Have fun watching that. I am forever scared.
Should I rent it?
I can't even fully support this movie as a rental.
Anything good about the movie?
Cameron Diaz has pet cheetahs. That is kind of cool.
Good date movie?
If a guy took a girl to this movie on a first date…it would be the worst first date ever.
Bottom Line
I am sure you are not going to take me at my word, and go see this movie for the same reason I did…a great cast. Just don't say I didn't warn you.

Haha, I guess a lot more people have snatched my maps to use in their games. I have no problems with that. I am curious though which maps you used?
Anyway, I really like the map so far. The cliffs and layout are really well done.
Are you going to add more buildings?
Now, the fields I don't like. They are too big and the textures don't fit in well.

last weekend I built this rather simple yet effectice preamp for a piezo electric pick up. I came across this idea of amplyfing minute signals from a piezo disk from a youtube video. I do not own this schematic or idea. It belongs to one of my inspirations: Collin Cunningham.
The MPF-102 N-channel FET Rf amplifier is becoming obsolete and hard to find. I figured there must be a way to acheive such acoustic clarity with a more standard discrete semicunductor. Does anybody know what changes I could make?
This is a great circuit and works like a charm. Please pass it on
In this circuit the BFR30 (Digikey 568-6203-2-ND) should be a suitable replacement for the MPF-102, with some resistor value changes. Here are the three parameters that matter most in this application, compared.
BFR30 vs MPF-102
Zero Vgs drain current 4-10 mA vs 2-20 mA
Transconductance 1000-4000 uS vs 2000-7500 uS
gate cut-off voltage -5 V max vs -8 V
Because the BFR30 has lower minimum transconductance I would increase the drain resistor to 3k ohms. Based on the Fig. 6 I would make the source resistor 750 ohms.
Thank you very much for the help. I will bread board it up later.
I know very little and about circuits, parts, and how it all works.
On the other hand, sometimes I might remember something someone told me, and he could be genious, who knows.
I found it was hard to get MPF102's and was referred to the NTE457
zero vgs drain current: 1-5ma
transconductance: 1000-5000 uS
gate cut off voltag: - 6v max
I would like to try this circuit as a pick up for my acoustic guitar
Apporximately what amout of output avaliable from piezo disk?
I am want to make amplifier for it.

WELLAND, ONTARIO, CANADA (WGRZ) -- It's one of the hottest videos on You Tube and it was filmed just a short drive away from Buffalo.
Scroll down to watch the video
Earlier this month in Welland, Ontario, a seemingly ordinary lunch hour at the Seaway Mall Food Court took a surprisingly festive turn when singers, who planted themselves in the crowd, suddenly broke into song, singing "Handel's Messiah."
Flash mobs similar to this one, where people sing or dance spontaneously, have been popping up all across the U.S. and Canada.
The video from Welland has more than three million hits on You Tube.

These truffles kind of have a long name. But I am not sure what else to call them. I have to highlight the good points right? We have cookie dough. Peppermint. Oreo's that happened to be double stuffed, but that seemed like too much to put in there. Then everything is dipped in chocolate, so I deem them truffles.
Today I am posting with a group of bloggers in honor of the victims, families, and community of Newtown, CT. "Cookies and Crafts for Sandy Hook" is one way we can unite and show support in the aftermath of what happened last week. Newton Youth and Family Services is a licensed, non-profit, mental health clinic and youth services bureau dedicated to helping children and families achieve their highest potential. NYFS provides programs, services, activities, counseling, support groups and education throughout the Greater Newtown area. Any donations made to them are going to those that were affected by the shooting. If you would like to donate, you can find more information here.
Sarah posted these last week, and I knew I needed to make them immediately. I knew that my 7 year old would love them, and they were perfect for the holidays. What kid wouldn't love the chance to eat cookie dough and Oreo's together? My 7 year old and I made these together, and then got to eat them! He was in love. These would be great without the peppermint extract for the rest of the year too.
I am beyond thankful for the time I have to spend with my son and my family this holiday season, and always. In the wake of what happened in Newtown, that is even more present on my mind. I know I am lucky to have each day with them. I hope in some way we can honor the victims of this horrible tragedy.

- Eastwood MIG Spot Weld Kit
Eastwood MIG Spot Weld Kit
Item #13901 Brand: Eastwood
- Duplicate full-penetration OE spot welds from one side with your existing MIG welder
- No need to buy a resistant spot welder (about $250!) or fool with carbon arc rods
- Spot Weld Pliers has forked jaws to secure the spot nozzle, offering full penetration on the back side of the weld
- Spot Weld Nozzle has "leg extensions" to create the exact standoff distance required for spot welding of 20- and 18-gauge metals
About Eastwood MIG Spot Weld Kit
Until now, you'd spot-weld primarily by using a large resistance welder, but now you can use your MIG welder together with this Spot Welding Kit from Eastwood to achieve the same professional results.
Spot welding is accomplished by clamping two panels together and fusing them with a number of sequentially-placed welds, rather than in a continuous bead, to hold the panels together. This kit is designed to be used with Eastwood's welders as well as any other brand welder that utilizes a Tweco®-style MIG torch.
The combination of the Spot Pliers and Spot Nozzle assures complete welds all the way through, and exact duplication of each spot weld.
For 18-gauge steel, or if you're using a less-than-175-amp MIG welder, simply use the supplied double-ended HSS drill bit to drill a 0.187" pilot hole in the top panel only, and then complete the spot weld as usual. The pilot hole serves to assure complete and full penetration from the top to the bottom panel. This type of weld is far greater in strength than a simple resistant spot weld, but produces the exact OE look, with greater weld strength.
Spot Weld Nozzle (fits Eastwood welders and other Tweco®-style torches)

Follow all safety measures outlined in your welder's instruction manual. Do not touch nozzle or pliers while welding. Use caution when touching pliers since they may be hot and could cause burns. Always use a minimum Shade #10 welding helmet, welding gloves, long-sleeve shirt and pants.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama has offered his take on the debate between Vice President Joe Biden and Congressman Paul Ryan, saying "Joe just needs to be Joe."
Obama offered his remark in an interview with ABC News on the eve of Thursday night's vice presidential debate.
Biden has been a controversial figure, occasionally prone to making rhetorical gaffes. Obama himself came under withering criticism for his lackluster performance in last week's debate against Republican challenger Mitt Romney.

News 12 at First at Five / Friday, June 29, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Lydia Manning brought her two children to the playground before the hottest part of the day.
"It's gotten extremely warm extremely quickly. From being a mild summer to hot summer was a shock to everybody," Manning said.
Some places were even registering temperatures as high as 108 degrees before noon on Friday.
"It's horrible, and if you don't stay hydrated, you're going to be hurting," Manning said. "You can feel it on your skin ... and it feels horrible."
The heat can also be dangerous.
Pam Tucker, the director of Columbia County Emergency and Operations Division, emphasizes the importance of staying cool in hot weather.
"It's something to take serious. Many people think heat is something they can ignore simply because they live in the South," she said. "But more people die from heat exhaustion and heat stroke than other disasters combined every year ... it needs to be taken seriously."
There are even hidden dangers for children. For instance, hot, plastic playground equipment can cause severe burns in the heat of the day.
"A lot of the issue is that parents don't realize how quickly children can get dehydrated from running around and playing," Manning said.
Of course, some workplaces don't have the luxury of air conditioning, but most outdoor workers are taking it easy with added breaks and shorter days.
"You have to change your routine a little bit when it's this hot outside," Tucker said. "You need to pay attention to your body and headaches, dizziness, fatigues."
It's important to get inside to a cool place immediately when you start to feel ill. If air conditioning does not help, Tucker says you must get to a hospital.
The Department of Labor has also created a phone app for anyone who spends time outdoors. The OSHA Heat Safety Tool can help keep you safe. It uses your location to tell you the temperature, heat index, risk level and how to protect yourself.

The National Executive Committee (NEC) of Chama Cha Mapinduzi NEC has established a special region for students of higher learning institutions, whose secretary and chairperson will automatically become NEC members.
This was revealed in Dodoma on Sunday by President Jakaya Kikwete when launching the party's website and blog.
He said NEC was expected to appoint the regional secretary yesterday and thereafter procedures for election of the chair will start.
"Tomorrow (yesterday) we will appoint a secretary for the special region, which will be followed by other internal election procedures," he said.
Commenting on the party's website and blog, President Kikwete said that youths have been mostly using the modern technology.
He said there has been an increase in the number of users of social networks, saying whereas in 2000 there were 115,000 customers now there were about 4.9 clients.
President Kikwete said there were not less than 50 social networks while Facebook users alone were 437,040. He said the new technology was also environment-friendly.
He said the challenge facing the party's publicity and ideology department was to ensure that the party's website and blog were timely updated.
For his part, Publicity and Ideology secretary Nape Nnauye (pictured) said the special region would focus on providing opportunities to youths in higher learning institutions.
"This region is special because it will have a special election system which will be held each year. It is also implementation of the party's strategy to strengthen itself, including in institutions of higher learning," Nnauye said.

For hunters who get lost in the woods, the big three of survival are shelter, fire and signal. Water and food are important, but not as important as these top three needs. Let's review each right now.
This will protect a hunter from the elements. Natural shelters can be rock overhangs or thick evergreen trees (e.g., cedar, pine, spruce or hemlock). A man-made shelter can be as simple as a garbage bag, poncho or space blanket, or more elaborate, such as a debris hut or a lean-to. Depending on the shelter you build, make sure it is clearly marked with blaze orange or a color not normally found in the woods. To mark a shelter you can, use blaze orange flagging tape, a blaze orange vest or some article of clothing that is brightly colored. Rescuers will see the color and check out the site.

Solar Punch is a popular New York, USA musical group that uses music to educate audiences about the environment. By using solar energy exclusively to power their performances and demonstrations, they believe that they become a solution to the climate challenge. They want to "inspire by doing... by showing...by inter-acting":
- "In remote farm villages. In mountain resorts. On islands and in urban areas. Our sound and show are portable. We are able to get most of our gear into a few suitcases, making it possible for us to bring our show to remote regions all over the world...
- "We are passionate about both the content (message) and the package (music) we want to entertain, thrill and enlighten but we also want to make sure our facts are correct, our information is current and our demonstrations are effective...
- "As we travel, we develop media and materials to help transmit how we work, why understanding and protecting the environment is a great thing and how the message itself is cross-cultural, cross-generational and world embracing..."

A new statewide poll shows most people in North Carolina favor some type of gun control.
Elon University released its poll on Monday saying 93% of those surveyed endorse background checks for everyone buying a gun, while 56% favor banning the sale of semi-automatic assault rifles.
The university interviewed 891 people last week in the telephone poll, which has a margin of error or 3.28%.
Elon says the poll also found 55% of those questioned favor limiting the number of rounds in clips or magazines, while 83% want a waiting period before people can buy a handgun.
The university says while the Newtown, Connecticut school shooting has influenced gun control attitudes, some gun control measures haven't changed much since their last poll on the subject nearly 3 years ago.

DULUTH - Very rare do you see a player coming off his freshman year that warrants even a casual glance by college football recruiters.
Grayson's Robert Nkemdiche could be that exception.
At 6-foot-5 and 240 pounds, Nkemdiche certainly has the size that makes scouts take notice, but it's his obvious athleticism and room to grow that should have colleges from all over clamoring for his signature in 2013.
"I got a chance to be on varsity last year and it really helped me feel good about myself," Nkemdiche said in a recent interview at Competitive Edge Sports where he's been training with Atlanta-area strength and conditioning guru Ryan Goldin.
"I was able to play a lot, had a few sacks, made a few tackles," he continued. "It was a good experience to be on the varsity last year and I'm looking forward to the season that we have ahead."
Although it's still two years before the youngster can receive his first written offer, Nkemdiche has already had some conversation with Vanderbilt.
Other schools will certainly follow.
"I've always liked USC and LSU," said Nkemdiche, who added he's not thinking past his upcoming season at Grayson.
Nkemdiche, who played outside linebacker for Grayson last fall, said he expects to eventually reach between 6-foot-6 and 6-foot-7 and weigh upwards of 270 pounds by the time he graduates in three years.
"I know I'm going to get bigger," said Nkemdiche, who wants to concentrate on playing defense. "Wherever they need me to play, I'll play. I play defense now and that's what I like, although I used to be a back."
Nkemdiche said he's staying humble through all the early attention.
"(Goldin) and all the guys here say I've got a big future, but they warn me not to get ahead of myself," Nkemdiche said. "I'm not going to be that way. I'm going to keep calm, stay focused like they want and just practice and play hard. I'm not going to let any of this affect me." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member.

text: With the fourth anniversary of the passing of Michael Jackson upon us, it's a good time to pause, reflect and celebrate his life and his music. Celebrating Jackson's music is something a number of contemporary artists, jazz musicians included, have done more constantly in recent years. I'm thinking of Joey DeFrancesco, Vijay Iyer, Esperanza Spalding, and the list goes on. Not only is it a popular thing to do, it's a fine way to pay tribute to one of the most important entertainers of all time. Speaking of fitting tributes to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, BWB's Human Nature — featuring trumpeter Rick Braun, tenor saxophonist Kirk Whalum, and guitarist Norman Brown — was released by Heads Up/Concord Music Group on June 18.

Tourism Promotion Services (TPS)
AKFED's Tourism Promotion Services (TPS) seeks to develop tourism potential in selected areas in the developing world, particularly in under-served regions. It builds, rehabilitates and manages hotels and lodges that contribute to economic growth and the overall investment climate in an environmentally and culturally sensitive manner.
AKFED owns and manages properties in Afghanistan, Kenya, Mozambique, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Rwanda and Uganda, operating under the brand name Serena.AKFED owns and manages properties in Afghanistan, Kenya, Mozambique, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Rwanda and Uganda, operating under the brand name Serena. Serena hotels, lodges and resorts contribute to the local economy through the training of skilled manpower, the reinvigoration of artisans and craft industries, and through sensitive conservation or development of the surrounding area. This includes placing priority on the hiring and training of local residents for employment at all levels of the organisation.
TPS often seeks to develop properties in less-travelled areas that require accommodation of an international standard - accommodation that supports tourism and business development - but which often are ignored by commercial hotel chains.
At each hotel, the policy is to minimise the impact on the local environment while seeking to maximise socio-economic benefits to the local economy. In Tanzania, for example, prior to the creation of new facilities in the country's national parks, four environmental impact studies were carried out. The Serena Hotel in Mombasa maintains a sanctuary for indigenous butterflies and also works actively with local residents on a programme to protect sea turtle nesting sites. These measures have earned the Serena hotels numerous environmental awards.

Birth Place: Exeter, New Hampshire, USA
The eldest of three children, Dan Brown was born on June 22, 1964 in Exeter, NH to parents Richard G. Brown, a mathematics teacher at Phillips Exeter Academy, and Connie, a church organist. While his parents' love of music greatly influenced Brown and his younger siblings Valerie and Gregory, his father's fascination with secrets and puzzles also became a keystone of Dan's developing interests. Already a crossword puzzle enthusiast from a young age, Brown and his siblings frequently had their deductive skills put to the test as their father created intricate treasure hunts in which they would ultimately locate their gifts on birthdays and Christmas. Not surprisingly, Brown attended Phillips ... Continue Bio >>

Police say Lindsay Lohan has been arrested in New York City on charges that she clipped a pedestrian with her car and did not stop.
Police say the 26-year-old actress was arrested at 2:25 a.m. Wednesday as she left a nightclub at the Dream Hotel on 16th Street in Lower Manhattan. Police say no alcohol was involved.
Lohan was charged with leaving the scene of an accident and causing injury. She was given a ticket and will have to appear in court at a later date.
Her attorneys did not immediately respond to voicemails and emails seeking comment. A phone call to her publicist rang unanswered.
Police say Lohan was driving slowly through an alley between the Dream Hotel and the Maritime Hotel when the accident occurred.
The victim called 911. He was treated at a hospital for a knee injury and released.

If you want to open up discussion about a particular article, please do so on the Talk: page for that article. Don't forget to indent and sign your posts to make discussion easier to navigate.
Just a friendly reminder to everyone, when adding a cite tag, please try to mention it in the edit summary (or if more complex, as a talk page question). Looking around, a few are just the result of time passing (i.e. info added directly by a puppeteer who registered two years ago, but someone doesn't notice it in the history, or as the result of talk pages from long ago but not directly attached to that page). Sometimes these can be cleared up pretty quickly, but often we're not even aware the tag is there (especially for pages that aren't as heavily visited or revised) until someone checks the category. Thanks! -- Andrew Leal (talk)
Check it out. Sesame's got an official channel on Hulu. hulu.com/sesame-street What's interesting is that they're providing episode information for sketches. —Scott (talk) 21:40, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
- Wow! Thanks for pointing this out. The episode info is great. I kind of hope, since Hulu allows for longer chunks than the Sesame site, that they might eventually put up a few whole, not-on-DVD episodes as well. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 21:43, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
- Looking a bit closer, the episode information seems a bit out of whack. The Andrea Boccelli clip says that it's from Season 28, episode 333. I have no idea how Hulu or the Sesame folks could have arrived at that number. The first 3 may be a production prefix and it's actually the 33rd episode of that season, but at least we know what year it was. —Scott (talk) 21:50, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm asking because we already have the sketch release box for audio and video, and I didn't know if we wanted to have transcript links look the same. -- Ken (talk) 04:46, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
Main page font
I'm not really crazy about the new font on the main page... Are you going for a different look? -- Danny (talk) 15:07, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- I like it a lot. It contrasts with the Upcoming column which reads like a ticker. The news section reads like a newspaper and looks classy to me. What do other folks think? —Scott (talk) 22:58, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- When the font changed, at first I thought it was my browser or something (which has sometimes altered fonts when something isn't loading right or what have you). Now that I know it's intentional, I'm not sure how I feel. I can kind of understand the newspaper look, but it *really* looks awkward for the opening statement of purpose right at the top. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 23:26, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- Originally, I only had the news section use the Georgia font and everything else was the standard Arial. It looked really funny, so I tried the whole column and it looked better. But I guess that's just me. I just thought it was all looking dull for the front page. —Scott (talk) 01:28, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
So, the font -- the more I look at it, I really just don't dig it. Georgia is a serif font, like Times New Roman, which means it has a lot of extra bits of black on each letter. So it looks nice, and fancy, but in small type, a serif font is harder to read than a sans-serif font. This is from the WP article on sans-serif: "Sans-serif fonts have become the de facto standard for body text on-screen, especially online. It has been suggested that this is because the small size of the font causes serif fonts to appear excessively cluttered on the screen."
Georgia is more readable than other serif fonts, but I think in general it's better to use a sans-serif font for text. Maybe it's cause I've passed the shadow of the valley of 35, but I have some love for the older folks who don't happen to be blessed with perfect eyesight as I am. Arial looks dull, but it's readable. -- Danny (talk) 05:19, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- This conversation kinda stalled... I took out the Georgia font for now, so we can talk about it some more. Anybody have an opinion one way or the other? -- Danny (talk) 06:24, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Bolding and Italics
Danny and I were talking, and I guess it's never been a clear policy about whether we should italicize and bold a book or album title when it's at the beginning of an article page. How does everybody else feel about it? -- Ken (talk) 05:02, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- Right now, the majority of pages with a book, film, or TV title are bolded and italicized, including our core articles (The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, etc.) and have done so for years (almost since the beginning). It's how Wikipedia does it and it's how myself, Scott, Wendy, and quite a few other users have been doing it before. When someone forgets, it usually gets fixed. It's the same way song titles have it in bold and quotes, since that's the rule and it makes it easier at a glance to see what's being discussed and to tell it apart from a character or culture or merchandise page. I never thought anyone had a problem with it. The only issue, which was discussed so long ago I can't recall when, was at one point using quotes versus italics and coming up with a style guide, which we did (italics for movies, TV shows, books, etc.; quotes for individual episode titles, sketches, etc.) -- Andrew Leal (talk) 05:29, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- I think this is another example of me having my own stupid opinion. :) I think the bolding at the beginning of an article is enough emphasis that you don't need italics. But if I'm outvoted on that, it's okay. -- Danny (talk) 06:13, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- I'm just surprised because, as per the example of Monster at the End of This Book, you started it and have been doing it for years, up until the past few months even when you've been adding books in vast quantities. :) It's not a matter of emphasis but the basic rule that titles of books, movies etc. are italicized, songs, short stories in quotes, and the bolding really doesn't change that. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:02, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- Aha! Looking around, I did find this discussion from December 2005, so Danny *is* on the record as saying he prefers articles titles without italics *or* quotes, and looking through the contribution history, he's left them out most of the time (not always, as seen here and here, among others). Danny, since that was the only statement and you've never removed italics from titles and since you've followed the grammar rule in all other instances, I think we all assumed your omission was carelessness rather than an organized protest. :) -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:34, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'm fine with the quotes for song titles. I think italics/bold for books doesn't look right. It's been kind of an unorganized protest. -- Danny (talk) 20:00, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- Is it just books, or period? The examples I could find of your recent italicizing were movies. But strictly speaking, the rule applies to everything that would normally be italicized in a sentence, since the bolding doesn't really change or affect that (and the italics don't add emphasis so much as they simply follow the rule and at a glance denote the title as a movie, book, album title, or TV production as opposed to a character, song, or some club Telly made up). Though has come up before, while we *generally* follow proper grammar rules (especially if the majority are used to it), we have made adjustments for the specific needs of the Wiki. It just feels kind of late in the day to completely reverse in this instance, if that makes sense. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 20:25, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

We have a standing guideline on the wiki that the topic of the article gets bolded in its first mention. This is a carryover from WP. We also decided some time ago on a style format for titles which I won't bother repeating as it's been covered. I don't see any reason to forego one situation when another applies. —Scott (talk) 22:39, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- I agree; follow both styles when both apply (ie italics and bold). Although I think I forgot to do it on the books I just added.... -- Wendy (talk) 03:58, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
International capitals
We've been adding a lot of international books and records lately, and I've realized that we're inconsistent about how to capitalize titles in other languages. We know the English rules, and apply those consistently, but German and Dutch seem to have different rules.
In German, what we call Die Schönsten Geschichten is written as Die schönsten Geschichten on both CD releases. The Pixi-Books include both Guten Morgen, Bert! and Grobi kann super nett sein.
In Dutch, the only capital is at the beginning of the title (except for proper nouns). What we call Pino Zingt Cijfers is written as Pino zingt cijfers; ditto for Poehéé! Het verhaal van Sesamstraat.
I'd like to propose going with the local capitalization, as best we can figure from the book or album cover. When the title is written in all capital letters, we look on the internet for another source which writes it in upper and lower case, or we make our best guess based on other titles. I think if we default to English rules, then we'll probably look silly to readers who know the language -- it's kind of like mistranslating the words, or not using accent marks.
What do other folks think? -- Danny (talk) 17:18, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I was just going to ask you about that. I've been spending a lot of time on German and Dutch eBay and Amazon, as well as other sites, and it's like getting a crash course in those languages. The capitalization was starting to bother me too, so what you proposed sounds fine to me. -- Ken (talk) 17:30, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
- I generally go by what's on the cover if we have it, but the international roles not only vary from country to country but seemingly at whim sometimes, so I'd be fine with following the English rules. So by that logic, all important words would be capitalized, but conjunctions, articles, and so on in the middle ("och," "el," "le," "con," etc.) would remain lowercase. Would that make sense? Also, it would probably help to let our currently active overseas editors (Henrik, Paul) know so they can weigh in. I think that's the biggest downside, whether it would potentially discourage or confuse international users, but that's easily clarified by, well, asking our international users. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:06, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
- Andrew, I think you misunderstood... We decided above that we're going to do the actual titles exactly the way they are on the cover. The question that Ken and I were just discussing was how to capitalize the English translation that follows.
- For example: on the page for Het beste bedtijdboek van Bert en Ernie -- do we write (The Best Bedtime Book of Bert and Ernie) or (The best bedtime book of Bert and Ernie)? I've been doing the latter, but now that Ken's brought it up, I think the former is probably best. -- Danny (talk) 19:47, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, as written, the follow-up question didn't seem especially clear, and I wasn't sure what you meant when you said "you're probably right." In that case, yeah, capitalize. Sorry for the confusion. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:57, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
- Here's a crash course in the Danish language. Names and places are always in capital letters. Then theres a handful of words that have more than one meaning it concerns the words "I", "Dem", "De" and "Deres" (variations on the english word "you") capital letters are used to separate them from "i", "dem", "de" and "deres". But as in many other languages the publishers sometimes use capital letters in titles, that differ from the proper rules due to design. With Danny example I can see the logic in both, so I will remain neutral on this subject. Henrik (talk) 20:03, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
In general, for every language, we're trying to use titles that reflect what's on the book cover / DVD / title card. The exceptions are for obvious things like titles that are written in all capitals, like The Muppet Show Book, or all lower-case, like Waar is Purk?
The conversation that Ken and I were having above was to establish that that same principle should apply to German, Dutch, French, etc., as well as English. So here are some recent examples: Tommie zoekt Purk, Mariechen, die rasende Reporterin, Wie viele Kätzchen sind es? and Mystiske dager på Sesam Stasjon.
When a title is all in capitals, then we try to follow the rules as best we can -- for example, Oskar hat Geburtstag is all in capitals, but I used Tutter hat Geburtstag as the model for how to capitalize. If we're not sure, and don't have any models to go on (as with Des Experts en Bévues, for example), then we default to English rules until we learn better.
I hope that makes everything perfectly clear. :) -- Danny (talk) 20:39, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
Main page news section
We haven't updated "Today on Muppet Wiki" for three weeks, so it looks like we're just tired of updating it, and it may be time to call it a day on that. Ever since the ads started appearing on the main page in June, I've been thinking that it looks a little bare -- the ads push the picture down. So I wanted to come up with something we could put in that space that would provide a little current-events vibe, and also include some pretty pictures.
So this is my proposal: Sandbox:Main page news. If the New York Times is to be trusted, we may be heading into a period where there's more news for us to post, so we might as well use that space to draw attention to our up-to-the-minute wiki coverage. We can just update it when we get something new, without feeling the pressure of the old dates staring at us. Having the brand-new stuff featured on the main page may also help us a little with search engine stuff.
What do you guys think? -- Danny (talk) 23:38, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, the problem of maintaining that section has come up before and lately it's just gotten worse. I've had a hard time getting the gumption to update, especially as days mount and since periods will go by where new pages either aren't very interesting or, as of late, most of our energies are spent on cleaning up or pruning existing areas (with new articles just as kind of a sideline). Son the whole, I agree with the news box idea. However, I still like the original "Today on Muppet Wiki" idea, which was to showcase odd, unusual, amusing, or newly discovered articles and obscurities. Nearly three years in, obviously that happens less often now, but a few gems still come up that could merit main page exposure. So I'd like to save a slot in the newsbox for that kind of thing, but instead of the pressure to update daily or even six at a time or what have you, it can change when and as someone comes across some really nifty article or merchandise picture or what have you. A lot of other wikis use a "Did you know" format. I'm not sure about phrasing, but maybe something like that? (And if need be, if there's a time where Muppet news is slack but a lot of new Wiki discoveries are added, the balance could be adjusted). Just a thought. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 00:19, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- That's a great idea! I've been feeling like things are getting better for the fans, as far as new stuff, as well as re-releasing old stuff. So the main page would be a good place to highlight that, as well as other strange or interesting finds. And I like the layout on the sample page, although I know that that could change. -- Ken (talk) 01:59, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- I agree that taking out the dates would help (and I'm as guilty as everyone else of not having the gumption to go update the front page). However I think the layout with the pictures makes the page too cluttered -- I don't know where to look or what goes with what. I think the News and the featured articles could be mixed together quite handily; we're unlikely to feature something for news that we don't have an article on anyhow.... so my vote would be just to take out the dates. -- Wendy (talk) 03:47, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
We got sidetracked on this yesterday because images weren't appearing, but I don't want to lose track of it. My suggestion is that we put the current draft on the main page, and then fix it from there. It's not perfect, not everyone is happy with it... but it's better than our third straight week of September 1st. What do you think? -- Danny (talk) 21:46, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- It doesn't matter much to me because I use 1280px screen resolution, but the accompanying screenshot is what it looks like for most of our anonymous readers. It's looking more than a little cramped. —Scott (talk) 22:06, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- I think that looks fine. It looks cramped to us because we're used to having a huge wide-open wiki page, but by web standards, that's pretty much the usual column size for text. I think it's important that when someone comes to the main page, they see a clear picture of Miss Piggy, rather than a lot of text and the top of Big Bird's head.
- We've put a lot of time and love into the main page picture, but let's face it, the ads have pretty much negated the value of that picture. In the screenshot you posted, Sugarloaf and Tutors.com are so dominant that the only way to make the page Muppety again is to get a picture into the left column. -- Danny (talk) 22:21, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- Another thing that I think would be good for the main page would be to have featured articles that have recently been improved. Sometimes there are articles with only a little bit of info that get updated in big ways, and unless this is noted in the edit summary, people might not realise it. I've noticed this at times when Sesame Street episode pages are improved. If the pages already existed then there isn't an N beside them in the recent changes page, and sometiems I don't realise it until awhile (I can usually figure it out, though, if I see several new images loaded in "new images", especially if an epsidoe number is included in the image title). Just something to think about. --Minor muppetz 17:18, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
- Works for me. I'm on the fence right now about the pictures, especially one for every news item (just one, to counterbalance the ads and attract the eye, *might* work, I'm not sure yet). -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:22, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
I made a few adjustments to Sandbox:Main page news: I added ad space and took out the header so we can see what the spacing will look like. I also made the left-align pictures smaller so things don't look so cramped. I moved the Kermit-peeking picture just under the 300px box ad because you can see and identify something Muppety there rather than just the top few pixels of whatever picture we happened to have voted on that week. It also brings the added bonus of bringing the Upcoming schedule back up again where people can see it. I figure if we really want to have a nomination process for the community to pick a picture of the week, we can do it at the bottom and feature three at a time or something so there's something interesting there and a variety. But, I'm sorta leaning toward letting that part of it go. —Scott (talk) 19:42, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
- That version looks great to me! I really like putting the Kermit pic there -- that gives a little extra "white space" and also keeps it Muppety. Now that I look at it, we should've had that there all along! It's perfect.
- The one tweak that I would make is to give it a little bit more breathing room around the "Muppet News" header -- like half a line above the header and half a line below.
- I like it too. I'll miss the main page picture, but as noted, the ad situation ruined that anyway. An idea might be, during holiday weeks or when someone has something timely and fitting, to include an image there in the leftbox. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:59, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Linking dates
I don't like linking every date. There, I've said it. -- Danny (talk) 03:29, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- You mean linking years? --MuppetVJ 03:32, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- I've been kind of feeling that way, too. For example, in the celebrity bios, it doesn't make sense to me to link every year in a person's career, when the links will suddenly take you to what the Muppets were doing that year. That's always seemed kind of strange to me. In some cases, it makes sense, like with the merchandise, so you can see what else came out that year. But not every single date on every page. Is that kind of what you were thinking about? -- Ken (talk) 03:47, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's good to bring this up. It all started with the timeline pages, really, and escalated when song boxes were added, often linking to dates in the 1800s until they were removed. I do think it's worth linking years for Muppet books, show dates, etc., since they're directly relevant *and* it provides a useful linkback (the timeline pages in general could benefit from clean-up, since a lot has been added or corrected since then). For other stuff, not so much, especially when, say, one's including random years in a person's bio or for the run of some show that the Muppets mentioned or were referenced by. Speaking for myself, and I'm probably not the only one, it's reached the point where one links dates only because of the certainty that if you don't, someone else will (and in general, the year pages are not and will never be the most interesting pages, outside of the current year in development). -- Andrew Leal (talk) 03:55, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, you guys said exactly what I was trying to say. I feel like we've created kind of a monster with the timeline -- a set of fairly boring pages that are linked from most of the pages on the site. 2005 and 2006 are both in the top 25 of most linked article pages; 2006 has 637 links. (Well, 638 now that I've just made another one.) It feels like linking the dates has just become a habit, which doesn't add much value to the site. -- Danny (talk) 16:38, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- I think it makes most sense to link to dates when the date is relevant to the article as it directly relates to the Muppets. So: "Candice Bergen (b. 1946) is a celebrity well known for playing Murphy Brown from 1988-1998. She appeared on The Muppet Show in 1976." Note that the only date linked out of the four used in the sentence is 1976, for her TMS appearance. —Scott (talk) 17:43, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- I'd say link, especially since in many cases, the merchandise isn't mentioned on the year page yet, as we're finding new stuff all the time. Right now, it doesn't really work, but prune out the extraneous celebrity-related dates (ala Scott's example), check "What links here" for 1980, and one could easily bring that page up to date with current Wiki knowledge. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 18:44, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- So, you're saying just do away with all year links, regardless? -- Andrew Leal (talk) 19:02, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, we agree on the general stuff. I'm just advocating for fewer links. You guys have said take it out for celebrity dates. I think we should take it out for some other areas too. -- Danny (talk) 20:47, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yes for merchandise pages. We don't cover a lot of merch on the date pages, but it would be interesting to do so beyond just books and DVDs and xmas ornaments. —Scott (talk) 21:32, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- Now that I look at it again, Scott's example with Candice Bergen above really says everything that I wanted to say. Just link when it's directly related to the Muppets -- the kind of thing that we would put on that year's page.
My YouTube account was recently shut down for non-Muppet/Sesame related reasons. I'll be removing some dead links, please feel free to remove any I missed. I was using the account to source a number of items on the wiki. I'll be setting up another account where I can link to for sources if they need be. If there's something that needs a link, please let me know. —Scott (talk) 15:10, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
NYT article on Muppet relaunch
There's a great article in today's New York Times: "Disney Prepares to Use its Marketing Magic to Bring Back the Muppets".
It's an exciting article, which fleshes out some details on Disney's plans, which include merchandise, books, and live appearances, leading up to a movie in 2010. There's also some good info there that we can use on the wiki. Go check it out! -- Danny (talk) 21:53, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Gruppe Sechs
this wiki
Gruppe Sechs (or Gruppe 6) is a security company featured in the Grand Theft Auto franchise since Grand Theft Auto III to Grand Theft Auto V, with an exception being Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The company uses the Securicar vans to transport goods or money. This company does not appear in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas but companies called Chuff Security Co. and Lock and Load Security appear on the Securicar instead.
The "Gruppe Sechs" name (German for "Group Six") is a pun on both the infamous European security company Group 4, and the phrase "group sex". In GTA IV, the company's written logo is changed to "Gruppe 6", although this would still translate to "Gruppe Sechs" in German, and the company's vehicles still feature "Gruppe Sechs" in much smaller print on various surfaces. The name of the van, Securicar, seems to also serve as parody to Group 4 since they were formally known as Group 4 Securicor. Despite those references, the company can be seen as the equivalent to American security companies such as Brinks based on their very similar vans in GTA IV.
As indicated by markings on the GTA IV rendition of the Securicar, Gruppe Sechs is claimed to have partnered with the Bank of Liberty, and is "licensed and authorized" by the Liberty City Police Department to use deadly force. Despite this, Gruppe Sechs personal are unarmed and never become hostile towards the player.
The Gruppe 6 headquarters are located in Leftwood, Alderney on Long John Ave, directly opposite to the Westdyke Memorial Hospital. However, no Securicars can be found there on any of the various parking lots. In the pedcomponents.img file, the m_m_armoured.wtd file has Gruppe Sechs armed employees, but they were most likely never scripted to be spawned in Securicars or at the Gruppe Sechs headquarters. Instead, they were replaced by the black security guards which bear a Gruppe 6 logo on their clothes, however it is not noticeable unless viewing the texture file.
- In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Gruppe 6 trucks will spill money when destroyed, usually consisting of $500-$2000.
- Destroying a Securicar in GTA IV with a weapon will automatically give the player a two star wanted level.
- Collecting all of the money dropped from a Securicar can be difficult at times because a wanted level instantly appears if the truck is destroyed with a weapon and due to the vehicle often blocking the player from obtaining some money underneath the burning truck. The player cannot reach the money without moving the truck before the money despawns without risking getting injured.
