Scoring a single in Canadian football

Although I've read single (football), my American mind can't quite grasp the way in which it's scored. I understand that a single is scored if a field goal falls short, lands in the end zone, and bounces goes out the back, but that's the only bit that I'm confident about. What about a punt — if a punt is caught in the end zone and the receiver takes a knee, is that a touchback like in American football, or is that a single? Finally, would someone please try to provide a few simple examples (hopefully comparable to scenarios in American football) of other ways that singles could be scored? Nyttend (talk) 05:32, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

The touchback does not exist in Canadian football. Any kicking play (kickoff, punt, or FG attempt) where the receiver is tackled or kneels within his own end zone scores a single. The idea is that a kick that doesn't score a field goal should almost always be followed by a runback, which can be an exciting play because the players are spread out that the kick returner may be able to gain considerable yardage. (Note that Canadian football also doesn't have the fair catch rule, instead requiring the kicking team's players to stay back 5 yards from the player catching the kick.) Unfortunately, today the receiving team often prefers to kneel and concede the single point, so we don't see so many runbacks after failed FG attempts. In my opinion the line of scrimmage following a single should be changed to about the 5-yard line of the receiving team. --Anonymous, 07:54 UTC, February 7, 2011.

In effect, a single is recorded any time the ball is kicked into the opposite end zone and is not brought out by the receiving team. It can be on a punt or on a field goal attempt, but not on a kick-off. A missed field goal does not result in a single if the ball fails to reach the end zone. The receiving team can also kick the ball out of the end zone instead of running it out if it doesn't want to concede the single point; because such a kick usually results in great field position for the original kicking team, this option is only used when time is running out and the single point is crucial to the final score. Typically, most singles are recorded on missed field goals that end up in the stands or in the netting behind the end zone, however. --207.236.147.118 (talk) 15:35, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

There is one exception, I believe -- you don't get a single if a kickoff goes through the end zone. But otherwise, you basically get a point if you force the other team to take a touchback on a kicking play. -- Mwalcoff (talk) 01:08, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Mw is right and 207.236 is wrong -- you can indeed score a single on a kickoff. The exception that you don't get one if the ball goes clear through the end zone (when on other kicking plays, you would) has never made sense to me. --Anonymous, 09:08 UTC, February 8, 2011.

Query about The Way Back movie

In the film The Way Back, the Ed Harris character appears to pour something he's freshly molten into his boot, or down a hole in its lining at least. It's never referred to again, so I'd like to know what he's doing and why? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theediscerning (talk • contribs) 16:56, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

It's not gold or some other precious metal? Gold melts at quite a low temperature, and shoes are commonly used for hiding valuables. Maybe someone who's read the book knows more. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:58, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

I've not seen the movie, but could it perhaps be gold dust rather than molten gold? Gold dust was commonly used as a means of transporting and storing gold, since it could more easily be molded to various containers than could buillion bricks or coins... --Jayron32 17:45, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Well it did appear to be metallic, but I wouldn't have thought pouring it direct into a boot one was still wearing was completely sensible, even though forced to do it in secrecy. It's not just what he was doing, but the frustration of it never appearing anywhere else in the film... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theediscerning (talk • contribs) 09:27, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

These types of instruments often have a label inside the body, which you way be able to see by using a torch.--Shantavira|^{feed me} 11:02, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Since the OP seems to be in the United States, we should probably say "flashlight" rather than "torch" to prevent the destruction of the instrument by combustion. Deor (talk) 13:02, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

You'll want to find a luthier in your community that specializes in old instruments. They are likely to know of ways to identify such instruments, and if they don't they can find someone who can. Use google or the local phone directory to find a luthier, and then start calling around to see if someone can take a look at it. --Jayron32 19:24, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Where was this scene filmed?

Where was the scene,(in the 1985 film Goonies)where they were in the cave with the piarte ship, filmed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KingofEV (talk • contribs) 01:57, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

There is a huge amount of information online of the locations in Astoria where certain scenes were filmed, but the pirate ship scene is not one of them. IMDB notes that some scenes were filmed on Stages 12, 15, 16 and 28a in the Warner Bros Burbank Studios. I would imagine the cavern was created on one of these soundstages.

The chronology in Zork

Reading the pages about the series, but there's still something I don't get about it. All I know about the continuity and chronology in the series is that Zork Zero takes place before the Zork trilogy. I want to know more about which game takes place when. Could someone be nice and make something like Template:Metroid chronology or Template:Kingdom Hearts chronology in the series page, or somewhere else? And before someone tries to contradict me, yes there is a timeline in the universe. For example, on The open Directory Prject, there are a few pages with lists describing said timeline. However, the lists about the chronology are incomplete and/or unclear. That's why I'm asking about help here, instead. Grey ghost (talk) 09:34, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

EastEnders pays tribute to Coronation Street, but not for the first time

In an episode of EastEnders broadcast in the second week of December 2010, the series paid tribute to its rival Coronation Street by having the character Dot Branning say she was a huge fan of the soap. At the time, the Street was celebrating its 50th anniversary. However, it is not the first time EastEnders has paid tribute to its rival. Coronation Street is referenced in an episode from Christmas Day 1987. My recollection is that Christmas is being celebrated at Pete Beale's flat. Several of the characters are playing charades when Den Watts calls to offer everyone Season's Greetings. He is persuaded to join in and chooses a television programme, which turns out to be Coronatio Street. I have found this which makes reference to it, and as Hilda Ogden left The Street at that time I'm guessing it was by way of tribute to her, but am really not certain. Can anyone shed any light on this for me? It would be interesting to add this fact to the Coronation Street Live (2010) article if there are any references available. I have Googled it, but didn't find a great deal. Cheers TheRetroGuy (talk) 20:50, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Find a How-To

For this card trick? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.181.202.2 (talk) 06:08, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

It is basic sleight of hand techniques. In the first case, several times, you can plainly tell that he does a "fake cut" or "fake shuffle" of the deck. The fake cuts, when they are obvious, are really obvious. He cuts the deck into two portions, gives the top portion a 180 or 360 degree twist, and drops it right back on top again. The rapid movement and twist makes it look like he's swapping the position of the two halves, but he really isn't. Secondly, its obvious he is using at least two decks; one deck that he does real shuffles with, and which he has the audience members handle, and the other that is his fixed deck that he tells the story with. The decks are likely being swapped with the aid of the square black pad on top of the black table cloth. That black pad is a bit odd, isn't it? I'm sure it allows him to conceal the swapping of the decks in some way. The way he palms the deck is a dead-giveaway that he is swapping cards and/or decks. Magicians always hold objects in their hands in a specific and peculiar way. They practice it so it looks natural to them, that is it is fluid and graceful, but it is in no way how a normal person handles a deck of cards; the way he holds it is specifically designed to hide the cards from view most of the time, obscuring any sureptious swaps and changes he may make. The story itself is classic misdirection; when he tells the story, your attention drifts from watching his hands, so you don't notice anything he's doing there. --Jayron32 07:00, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Magician School

Is there a magician school for basic magic or street magic? Specifically in New Jersey. How do folks like David Blain and Davie Copperfield get their start? --Endlessdan (talk) 20:02, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

I typed "magician classes new jersey" into Google, and one of the links was this: [1]. Professional magicians learn their trade often by apprenticing with older magicians and by LOTS of practice. Magic is a highly precise and choreographed thing, even basic card tricks are highly routined. Magicians make it look natural and spontaneous because they practice a LOT, just as much as professional musicians and dancers and atheletes do. There are also lots of books about how to do magic. Most magicians actually have a pretty common toolset of sleight of hand and other techniques that they all use; once you learn to spot these you'll be surprised how simple most of it is. Note that simple does not mean "easy to do yourself". What a basketball player does when he shoots a basketball is "simple", playing in the NBA is still hard. --Jayron32 00:33, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

In past years, BBC7 (now called BBC Radio 7) has broadcast The High Window, also known as The Brasher Doubloon. I'll look back in my files. I remember a series of Philip Marlowe stories in what 7 called their American season. David32768 (talk) 01:59, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Film made at Camp Cooke, CA - 1943

My grandfather, Harvey L. Hargis, was with the 1st platoon, Comp G, 66th Armored Regiment of the 2nd Armored Division of "Hell on Wheels" 702nd Tank Destroyer Battalion, 195th Anti-Aircraft Battalion. He was inducted July 11, 1941; departed overseas Feb 12, 1944; arrived Feb. 23, 1944; departed Oct 2, 1945 and arrived back in the United States Oct. 11, 1945; separated from the army on Oct 17, 1945. As his granddaughter, I have many of his photos, a couple of large maps and misc personal items belonging to him, he passed away Nov 9, 1980.

Among these photos, which I found very interesting, was photos of a film crew taking pictures of what looked like army tanks in battle. One tank had smoke coming out of it and a couple soldiers, one wounded, one on the ground near the tank. Another photo showed what looked like an actor with a mustash wearing a hat, scarf and western shirt with belt with several soldiers around him. I did not recognize the actor. I have photos of the film crew making the film.

My questions are: Was there a hollywood film made at Camp Cooke in California in 1943? What was the name of the movie? Who starred in it? and, How does my grandfather's tank platoon fit into all of that, if at all. Was it just a training movie for the army?----

If you were to scan the photo and post it to a site like Flickr and direct us to the site, someone might be able to identify the apparent actor. Comet Tuttle (talk) 23:03, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

According to TCM's notes, "some scenes were shot on location at Camp Cooke" for This Is the Army (1943). It starred some actor with higher aspirations. Can you tell if the tanks are from World War I or II? After reading the synopsis, it looks like this film would only have battle scenes from WWI. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:18, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

you might also be able to look on real military flix to see if there was a training film fitting that description they have a sizeable archive of them ranging from basic training stuff to OSS top secret-level training films about establishing cover in enemy territory... I didn't see anything that meets your description right off the bat though in their WWII section. 65.29.47.55 (talk) 01:44, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Doctor Who theme

Just so I can win an argument, this is in 12/8 time, right? The article is evasive on the subject. 86.6.193.43 (talk) 22:11, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Personally, and I've just gone through the original theme to do this, I find you can map it to a straight 4/4 time sig. Don't know where 12/8 comes from, sorry. --TammyMoet (talk) 22:29, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

I can see how it's quadruple meter. But it's completely in triplets; no-one would write a piece in 4/4 where every beat was tripletted, you'd rewrite it more legibly in 12/8 surely... (For the record, the person I was arguing with said it was 6/8.) 86.6.193.43 (talk) 23:20, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Just as a counterarguement, I'm right now looking at sheet music for Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (Hal Leonard's Greatest Guitar Songbook) which is notably written in 3/4 time and its all triplets, notably not written in 9/8, which would be the equivalent compound meter for 3/4 as 12/8 is for 4/4. Not being a huge music theory expert, someone else could likely explain why this is different than the Dr. Who debate above, but I just wanted to point out that sometimes music is written is simple time signatures and all triplets. --Jayron32 03:41, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Not sure what it will take to win the argument, but it is indeed 12/8. (To Tammy- this means 4 beats per measure, and each beat is subdivided into triplets.) See Compound meter. Staecker (talk) 03:33, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

(See also: example of a rhythm notated in 12/8 and in 4/4.) --Bavi H (talk) 04:13, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Is your argument specifically about the original score? If not, as long as it fits mathematically, the choice of time signature used in the notation seems more of an editorial decision, not a property intrinsic to the music. As you noted, if there's a constant triplet beat, 12/8 can help remove the need for writing little 3s over every eighth note trio. But if it's a syncopated or occasional triplet, 4/4 may be used: example 1, example 2. Or perhaps you might choose to divide each 12/8 measure into two 6/8 measures, if you consider measures with total durations of more than 4 quarter notes may be confusing for your music readers? --Bavi H (talk) 03:50, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

According to this it's in 4/4. I rest my case. --TammyMoet (talk) 13:58, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

I think much of the confusion comes from the use of echo. If you remove the echo, it fits into 4/4 time easily. With the echo, each note is repeated a few times very quickly, sounding like a long string of triplets. I don't think there is a standard notation for "4/4 with a strong echo". -- kainaw™ 14:29, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Jo Stafford biographies

forgotten animal actors

I remember seeing a black-and-white dog in Against All Odds. The dog's name, I believe, was Mike the Dog. What kind of dog was he? Is there more information about him? What are Panther the Cat (from Early Edition) and Happy the dog (from 7th Heaven) up to nowadays?24.90.204.234 (talk) 08:28, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Though not a super reliable source, IMDB's credit lists are usually accurate. Their credits page for Against All Odds lists a dog with the real name of "Tundra the Wonder Dog"; Tundra's other appearance seems to have been in this episode of The New Leave It To Beaver. Googling tundra the wonder dog mostly yields mirrors and translations of the IMDB pages, but it also yields this 1989 article from People magazine, which mentions Tundra briefly and says it's a female Samoyed; Google also yields this page, advertising an American Sign Language video about dog care and training, which Tundra seems to have starred in. Samoyeds are all white, though, not black-and-white; is this the dog you remember? Comet Tuttle (talk) 19:53, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

No, afraid not.24.90.204.234 (talk) 22:29, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Panther the Cat, according to IMDB and this site was born in 1987, so he would be 24 if he's alive today. He doesn't seem to have appeared in anything other than Early Edition. Happy was born in 1995 and has only appeared in 7th Heaven (again from IMDB). She was trained by Shawn Weber who works for Boones Animals for Hollywood - Happy appears in their photo gallery, but not in the animals available for hire. The trivia section for 7th Heaven says that the series' creator saw Happy on another set, implying that she has been on other shows, but it's not clear if she was working or where, and IMDB trivia may not be reliable. --Kateshortforbob _talk 20:13, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

S.K.U.N.K: Irish 1990s children's fiction

Hello everyone, I am trying to trace a children's (or young adult) novel series published in Ireland in the 1990s. The heroine was named something like Ashling Daly from Dalkey or Dún Laoghaire, whose fantasy was to play hockey internationally. She was drawn into adventure by having to look after a grouchy elderly disabled man perhaps named Séamus, who was secretly involved in a heroic organisation dedicated to fighting the evil agency S.K.U.N.K. (a SPECTRE clone). Two prominent members of SKUNK are a Latvian (or Lithuanian) pair with the dimensions of Laurel and Hardy. In one of the novels Séamus and his allies travel around in the back of a vehicle designed to look like a container, and are betrayed by their driver (Kevin).

Judie Tzuke's son-in-law

I've just been watching the Six Nations Rugby on BBC One and my query is indirectly connected with a question asked by the presenter. Before the match the presenter - I think it was Sonja McLaughlan - asked some of her guests if they knew the identity of Judie Tzuke's son-in-law.

Fever fetishism

I have heard yellow fever meaning Asian fetish and jungle fever meaning black fetish. So, is there a term for a person who has desi fetish meaning fetish towards Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan and Bangladeshi? What about Latina fetish? What about white fetish? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.92.152.3 (talk) 16:13, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

"Curry fever" and "salsa fever", also listed on urbandictionary are "falafel fever", "oolong fever", "hay fever", "rice fever", "cocoa fever", "sand fever" "snow white fever", "monsoon fever" "Bieber fever" etc, although I doubt many of these have much currency. Other than jungle, my slang dictionary only seems to list "curry queen" and "yellow fever" both of them from homosexual usage. Jungle fever originally meant white desire for black but it was reappropriated to black desire for white with the movie Jungle Fever, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SikqrRQHbrw meltBanana 19:41, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Discography of Blowfly

I've been downloading all the Blowfly albums i can find over the last few days, and i've noticed that i've been finding albums that are not listed on Blowfly's wikipedia page, but are still real albums that he put out. I wonder if someone could update the Blowfly page's "Discography" section so that a more accurate list of albums and dates they were originally released is presented. it could aid me in my search to find all his material. I always use wikipedia when i am looking for the entire discography of an artist, and this is the first time that the discography section has not been entirely correct (which is incredible, by the way. well done guys!), so i was hoping i could get some assistance in the matter. Thanks guys! Here are some links to sites that i've found with other Blowfly albums that are not included in the Discography section: http://henrystonemusic.com/store/hsmstoreblowflycd.htm http://www.amazon.com/Blowfly/e/B000APTJRA/works/ref=ntt_mus_teaser It's all very confusing because alot of his album's titles have the same words in them, for example, "Zodiac Blowfly", "Zodiac Party", "Blowfly's Party", ect. Any Assistance would be much appreciated. --Garebare (talk) 18:38, 12 February 2011 (UTC)Garebare

Guidelines for creating page about Musician?

I want to create a page about a musician; specifically a guitarist of a certain genre. I plan to include factual information (with reference links) about his albums, songs, gear equipment, career, and a short bio. I'm worried about the later and anything else that could cause a page deletion to occur. When I went to create the page (searching his name first to make sure it didn't already exist) the results showed two prior deletions for the same name with the following codes and reasons:

(Page deleted in 2008) - A7 (bio): Real person; doesn't indicate importance/significance

(Page deleted in 2007) - CSD A7: Article does does not indicate why its subject is important or significant

I've read what these mean but just looking for what 'not to do' when making a page about a living person. I see plenty of other Wikipedia pages about living musicians and guitarists that apparently meet the criteria. I just don't want to add anything extra that merits deletiion. Please advise, thanks.

Steve N. Mavronis (talk) 20:36, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Your subject needs to meet either the general notability guideline or the notability criteria for musicians, so take a look at those links first. Your article needs to demonstrate how he meets the guidelines; in other words, you need to cite substantial coverage of him in reliable sources. You're looking for articles about him in newspapers, magazines and books, or on reliable independent websites (not blogs, Facebook pages or self-published sites). Create the article in a user sandbox first, so you can work on it with less chance of it being deleted before it's ready. Clicking on this redlink: User:Snmavronis/sandbox will create such a sandbox if you wish. Listing it at WP:RFF for feedback when you're done will also help minimise the danger of another deletion nomination. Karenjc 21:42, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Music

Can a professional musician explain to me what constitute as good music? I find this piece http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hVGWdvTgMo&playnext=1&list=PL48D4F446CDFC484E one of the greatest masterpieces of all time, it sounds so nice, yet the composer doesn't even have a wikipedia page. Furthermore, I have extreme difficulty in enjoying many classical masterpieces, especially the slow ones. I do not like modern music much (I say this because apparently most modern listeners don't like classical). I like the fusion of classical and epic like the one in the link. If someone can explain to me my strange taste I would really appreciate it. Thanks. Money is tight (talk) 10:51, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Musical tastes are very individual and do not require any explanation or defence. You like what you like and you dislike what you dislike. Rather than getting hung up on what's "good" and "bad" music, just say "I like it" or "I don't like it". Nobody can ever argue with that. As for music you don't like, sometimes it's possible to be trained to hear what others hear, and to then start to appreciate the music they think is fabulous but which you can't quite get, at the moment. But sometimes a lifetime of training will never work; for example, I know I will never learn to like heavy metal, and others will never learn to like opera. Horses for courses. -- Jack of Oz [your turn] 11:16, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Then why do some composers achieve so much fame and others don't? Like I said, the guy that wrote the piece in my link doesn't even have a wikipedia page. I respect people like Franz Schubert and John Williams but I only like a small part of their music, and yet they are so famous. Furthermore, Mozart is widely regard as an opera writer (and I believe that's where he wrote his best pieces?), yet I hate all his operas and really enjoy his symphonies and piano concertos (and for that matter the ones I do enjoy seem to be the "non famous" ones, like piano concerto no 25). Also Hans Zimmer definitely deserves a lot more recognition than what he has. I know that most people like listening to rock / hiphop / modern music and nothing else, so how do some composers get so famous when the majority of people don't even like them? Money is tight (talk) 14:52, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Modern "classical" composers may get famous by writing movie music (Dmitri Shostakovich), video games (sometimes performed in concert Symphonic Game Music Concerts, for example), or being just weird (John Cage's 4'33"). 75.41.110.200 (talk) 19:20, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

You seem to be trying to make a connection between the number of people who like a particular composer's music, how much of their oeuvre is likeable and by whom, and whether or not they're famous. These are all different things. Some composers are now famous for exactly one piece yet they wrote many other works. There were classical "one-hit wonders" long before the term was used in popular music. I might mention Henry Charles Litolff and the Scherzo from his Concerto Symphonique No. 4, for example. The Scherzo is righly famous, but very few people know even the rest of the Concerto, let alone a single other work by Litolff. Why is that single excerpt enough to keep Litolff's name alive? People like it, that's all. When I say the name Albinoni, what do most people think of? That's right, Albinoni's Adagio - a work of which Albinoni wrote not a single note. He wrote a lot of other stuff, but he's world-famous for a work written centuries after his death by someone else (Remo Giazotto) and misattributed to Albinoni. Who knows anything he actually did write? He has a tiny following, at best, for these authentic works. The classical CD catalogue has been greatly expanded of recent years with works by composers that very few modern-day people have ever heard of; they maybe had a level of fame in their day, then sank into obscurity; but someone has rediscovered them and is sharing their works again. Some of these people would have WP articles, others wouldn't. Not yet, anyway. Schubert wrote a vast amount of music - just under 1,000 separate compositions, from simple 2-minute songs to 4-movement sonatas to 4-act operas - but almost nobody knows it all. People who like Schubert will generally know a handful or two of pieces, and listen to them regularly. That might represent only 2 per cent of his total output, but it still qualifies the listener to call themselves "a Schubert lover". You picked a bad example, in a way, because Schubert's quality was amazingly uniform, which is true for very few other composers. I love Mozart and Beethoven, but there are some pieces by both these guys that I cannot abide. For me it's not about opera vs. concertos vs. symphonies - there are examples of all of these that I love, but other examples of each type that I'm not so cracked on. When it comes to the Hans Zimmers of the world, the establishment tends to look down their noses at composers who write film music; no matter how popular and successful it may be, it will never be up there with the Mahlers and Brahmses. Look at Erich Wolfgang Korngold - a fantastic genius who put Mozart in the shade for precocity, and had a burgeoning career as a "serious composer", then went to Hollywood where his fame shot to even greater heights, while his reputation sank like a stone among academicians. Why? Because he was writing film music that people immediately liked, and did not have to "struggle" over. Therefore it was obviously of little consequence and it - and he - were not to be taken seriously anymore. Thank God these "experts" don't get to decide what people actually like and actually buy. Is it "good music"? Abandon this paradigm, it will get you nowhere. If it's good enough for you to like, that's all that matters. -- Jack of Oz [your turn] 19:49, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Right, so these "academicians" are the problem. Well I really think they should get off their ass and actually do something useful. I guess my misunderstanding was due to that in mathematics we don't have this kind of "academician problem". If you're good and publish revolutionary ideas solving open problems you will get recognized by everyone in your field (unlike the natural science math can be verified by human hand, not super expensive particle accelerators). Money is tight (talk) 20:48, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Other factors include cultural stereotypes, historical hypocrisy, snobbishness et al. They're relaxing somewhat, with the rise of the crossover culture. Purists hate it, but ordinary people don't seem to mind in the slightest. -- Jack of Oz [your turn] 20:56, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Robert Wyatt/Julian Glover

On Julian Glover's page it claims he is the half brother of Robert Wyatt. This claim does not appear on Wyatt's page. The links given don't mention it either. I wonder if anyone out there can confirm it? If so I'll do the necessary editing. --TammyMoet (talk) 17:11, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Discogs has "Born: Robert Wyatt, January 28, 1945 in Bristol, England to Honor Wyatt a teacher and BBC journalist. Wyatt became Robert Ellidge [or Robert Wyatt Ellidge] and moved with his mother and father, George Ellidge an industrial psychologist, to West Dulwich, England in 1950. The family included three other children from previous relationships: George's son Mark Ellidge [later a renowned photographer and a pianist on Wyatt recordings] and Honor's daughter Prudence and son Julian Glover [later to become a renowned actor]."[3] ---Sluzzelin talk 17:31, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Sluzzelin. I've added Glover to the family section, but can't quite remember how to insert the reference! Blast! Can someone oblige please? I've got to go and make tea! --TammyMoet (talk) 18:10, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Clarityfiend. MB, surely any reference is better than none, which is what was there before? Maybe the reference needs to be added to Glover's page as well? --TammyMoet (talk) 10:42, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

After a lot of Googling I can't find any reliable sources. Neither Debrett's People of Today nor BFI Screenonline mention anything in Glover's bio. Glover certainly comes from a family of Wyatts, though I'm not convinced Robert is a relative. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:14, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Google books has some indirect references. "Any reference is better than none" is a poor idea as a bad reference conceals the fact that a better reference needs to be given. Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_48#Discogs pronounces it unreliable, if it was merely about Wyatt's discography then it might not matter but as it is about family then a higher standard should probably be upheld per Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons#Reliable_sources meltBanana 13:30, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

I checked some old copies of The Wire, which have often featured Wyatt, but found nothing. One of the indirect references mentioned by MeltBanana is viewable on their own site: Theatre Record, Issue 15 - 2004. It doesn't mention the parents or other siblings, but it confirms that Wyatt is Glover's "younger half-brother". ---Sluzzelin talk 13:47, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

The suggestion appears to be that Wyatt's mother Honor Wyatt was a BBC journalist and producer once married to fellow journalist Gordon Glover. She had two boys, Julian Glover and Robert Wyatt, by different fathers, as well as a daughter named Prudence. Wyatt's father George Ellidge joined Honor's household when Wyatt was about six (see Wyatt's statement in this Guardian interview), bringing with him his own son Mark Ellidge. Wyatt mentions this in the interview ("Then my big brother turned up, his other son"). This doesn't seem to be an independent reliable source, but gives a clear explanation of what is supposed to have happened. I can't find any authoritative single source that confirms it.This is Glover's birth record at ancestry.co.uk, and this is Wyatt's. Both give the mother's name as Wyatt. This source says Glover is the son of the Honor Wyatt who was married to Gordon Glover and was a friend of Robert Graves who visited him in Majorca, and that Prue Glover was his sister. This one says that Wyatt's mother was the Honor Wyatt who was a BBC producer. I think it's pretty clear the statement is true, but the only way I can find to reference it is an unsatisfactory synthesis of sources. Karenjc 16:55, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

"Do you remember" song

I heard on the radio a song in which the lyrics repeated the phrase "Do you remember?" every once and then. No, it's none of the songs listed on the Do You Remember? disambiguation page.

The web is filled with lyric pages, including those which, intentionally or not, incorporate most mondegreens. If you can remember any more lyrics (*especially* the non-memorable ones, as they're more likely to be unique), you can search for the phrases in quotes, and have a page with the song title pop up as the first hit on most search engines. Failing that, more lyrics will at least help us narrow it down. -- 174.21.250.120 (talk) 16:15, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

The Man Who Came Back

About 25 years ago I read a novella titled The Man Who Came Back which was set in the year 2375, but I can't remember the author's name.

Plot summary

The plot saw the main protagonist (and narrator of the tale) placed in suspended animation in 1970 after being diagnosed with a terminal illness, then woken again when technological advances mean he can be cured. He finds himself in a USSR-style country where everyone is ranked as types of citizen - A Citizens, B Citizens, etc. The whole thing is run by The Group. Enemies of the state are disatched in horrendous fashion. The protagonist becomes an A Citizen and meets a girl named Cresta who apparently belongs to an undergroun organisation and the pair plot to escape the country. However, Cresta turns out to be a double agent, and the narrator is arrested as they make their bid for freedom.

Does anyone know the name of the author? I have googled this and there are several hits for books and films of this title, but I can't find a synopsis to match this one. Can anyone help? Cheers. TheRetroGuy (talk) 16:55, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

It's also not the story of that title by Robert Silverberg, first published in 1961 in the UK's New Worlds magazine, reprinted in 1974 in Galaxy magazine, in 1975 in the Lester del Rey-edited Best SF of the Year 1974, and in anonymously edited anthologies in 1982 and 1983 (I've just read the last-mentioned appearance). 87.81.230.195 (talk) 15:28, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

watching tv programs online like online news

Where can Jeopardy that plays for free on local tv stations be watched online via real time streaming? --Inning (talk) 00:16, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

I don't believe it can be done legally in the US. I've been searching on and off for a couple weeks and haven't found anything. In particular, I'd like to see the recent episodes with the Watson computer but can't find them either. Seems you and I are in the same boat. Dismas|^(talk) 13:11, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

I think the problem is with advertising. TV shows on channels with adverts basically exist to expose people to advertisements. If the shows were streamed, the adverts might not be part of the stream; the TV channels want to force people into watching the adverts, which is why streams aren't often provided. In the meantime, there is an answer to the question of how you can watch Jeopardy vs. Watson just a few answers above this one. --Viennese Waltz 13:16, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

It may have been deleted from Youtube for copyright reasons since the IP wrote that.

As a smoker who can't smoke indoors, it's really annoying when something I'm watching doesn't have commercial breaks. Hulu.com has them, sometimes, and of course you get them at places like ABC.com. (Pausing an online stream, of course, can work -- but somehow the structure of it, both dramatically and temporally, just isn't as satisfying as just stepping away for the duration of a typical commercial breaks).

Which Wizardry series game is this?

I remember a much-beloved game from my childhood, I'm fairly certain it's a member of the Wizardry series, but I don't remember which it is. The cogent points about it I remember are:

• I played it on an x8088
• It came on a fair number of 5.25" floppies, at least four or five, maybe more like six, it wasn't a CD-ROM
• The graphics were 3d-like, you could turn and walk around, the graphics were about on-par with Eye of The Beholder, even though due to a lack of distinguishing features on walls it was very easy to get turned around (for a 10-year-old anyway)
• At one point near the start of the game you find yourself putting rotten cheese in front of a hole to open up a new area due to rat stampede breaking down the wall
• There was a bell tower of some kind, I remember bats being up there
• it was AMAZINGLY difficult, at least for a 10-year-old
• it was not Crusaders of the Dark Savant
• I don't remember any sort of town or starting area, it started rather abruptly without a whole lot of guidance, with you facing in a room with lots of doors that were immune to your bend bars/break gates ability at that level.

I think it may be Bane of the Cosmic Forge, but I can't find much detail on that game. Any help would be very appreciated 65.29.47.55 (talk) 08:54, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
