I am a huge fan, i know two other people who have this game, and we want to know if you will be making a new version.

Hi:

I recently purchased a DVD from E-bay that was a grouping of banned cartoons. Several studios were on this copy including yours. It was a burned copy and they are advertising it as new. The listing was called Banned & World War II caroons Vol. 1 and Vol 2. I did not know if you knew about this but thought you would like to know.

Since you have obtained a bootleg copy of a Wikitoonpedia Cartoon, Wikipedia will punish you for theft. Think of how Jimbo drew 500 000 frames by hand for those cartoons!Alx xlA00:51, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have been trying to locate information on this subject for some time now and have recieved none. My Uma lives near Ruhr and i am thinking about living with her for the school year and getting transfered to your university. I do not know if your university deals with the University of Manitoba in this way so this is the reason i am writing you. If you could get back to me with any information on this subject it would be greatly appreciated. My e-mail address is [email deleted]

I talked to mypsychologistMonday and told him that perhaps I would do better getting in theEngineering field. He told me I might do better with a degree inVeterinary Technology. He knows I am better atscience (Chemistry,Biology, andMedicine) then I am atMath, and getting aBachelor's degree in engineering is more relient on higher math then veterinary technology. What do you think? And what are the advantages/disadvantages in being in these fields and getting an education in them (through comparing the two for the advantages/disadvantages)?

The engineering I want to take in school isElectrical/Electronic andMechanical engineering.

Hmm I think the guy had a legitimate (if somewhat unusual) query. My guess is the guy is a wedding videographer, shooting a south indian wedding for the first time and is looking for a classical soundtrack to play over the video. So he is looking for the name of a ragam which would be appropriate as a soundtrack for a wedding and wants to know which (audio) CD he can find that ragam in. --Spundun03:10, 10 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be possible to provide a bit more variety rather than repeating the same old content every few months. Examples would be the older movies such as Convoy and Smokey and the Bandit. I have been a Foxtel customer for four years and keep watching the same programs repeatedly. More Australian content would also be appreciated such as the old Paul Hogan and Norman Gunston shows. I am also appalled by the lack of Western Australian (Eagles) football available to Sydney residents.

Okay, we need to take account into material. A typical rocking chair's structure is made out of pinewood, a type of softwood that is not very durable. While pine is normally very easy to break, if you pick the wrong material, you can easily break your hand. Sap/moisture content is very important, especially for the weak. A board that is too wet or has too much sap will be hard to break. So yes, you can assault a rocking chair.ÒwÒland (talk)14:15, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

According to theAssault article, you can't actually "assault" an inaminate object, legally speaking. You could damage or destroy the chair, obviously. If it's a simple wooden chair and you have a fireplace, that's one way. ←Baseball Bugs^{What's up, Doc?}carrots→17:04, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the legal term does not implylasting physical damage. In US tort law, assault is the intentional creation ofapprehension of imminent harm – which may cause lasting mental damage. Just take the rocking chair to a fireplace, and say, suavely, "we wouldn't want such a beautiful chair to wind up as a heap of ashes, would we? – but I know you can be reasonable."  --Lambiam23:34, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear sir,

Is it possible to generate Infra Red light waves instead of other colours in Neon signs.?

[email address removed]

My humble Answer: This sound like a Laser--a close cousin. Try googling/wiking IR lasers.

Also. most Neon signs are filled with neon; if you want any color other than "clear red" you need use tubing with a colored fluorescent coating to produce the color. The small amount of UV invariably produced by the excited Neon (Plasma) lights the coating. Other gases, like Krypton, Xenon, etc, produce different colors but are very rarely used. They are expensive. There Is a mixture in those Plasma Globes you see.[IP removed]

Other Uses?

It is possible to charge capacitors directly from an NST's AC output. A Marx-type generator can use AC or DC input; a voltage multiplier uses an AC input. The multiplier, however, Does use rectifiers in its stages.The Marx generator charges caps in parallel to discharge them thru spark gaps in series. This would be cycled at the twice the input frequency--120 Hz with 60 cycle.

Types?

Please mention no Neon transformers were ever made over 60 mA output. Any 120 mA devices, or greater, are for bombarding (bench burning-in of Neon tubes.)

Also, an AC transformer is 98% efficient--the switch mode "electronic Ballast"-type doNot exceed this efficiency. They are only lighter, quieter, and won't drip tar on the rug if they get hot.

Switch-mode Electronic Ballasts are simply 85% efficient compared to the 35% or so of an analog power supply.

Switch-mode transformers are No Good for Tesla coils--the back RF will fry them, instantly. Plus they are not designed to work into a capacitive load. Perhaps an RF filter can be added, but their switching frequency of 15-25 kHz sometimes approaches the operating frequency of the Tesla coil, and precludes this.

An RF filter must always be added between the output of a transformer-type NST and a Tesla coil, or the back EMF can cause internal carbon shorts in the asphalt potting. These can be fixed by removing the tar, but it is very delicate, messy work.

Transformer-type NST's have a center tap (grounded) when they produce about 10 kV or more. This makes for two hi voltage output windings, insulated for 1/2 the output. Saves insulation and costs. It is safer to run this way, too.

The current-limit in a transformer-type is a magnet "shunt"--a split in the normal "tongue" of the center lamination that is designed to reduce flux on load. This is the opposite of a normal transformer, which will provide much more current than designed for if shorted, until it burns out a winding.

The current limit is to provide a high voltage starting "pulse" to the tube, then to limit current, and, hence, power to the tube. The short-circuit current is equal to the rated current, an AC ammeter can simply be placed across the hi voltage outputs to test it. The average short-circuit/full-load output voltage is 800 volts.

Also, the asphalt in old-fashioned transformers is for Noise--not weatherproofing or insulation., They are well-sealed in a steel box for outside use. The newer ones for indoor are potted in epoxy. They will run fine without tar--in fact, if asphalt removed (Very Carefully!), and they are immersed in oil, the shunt can then be bypassed for safe, short bursts of even greater current. There is much less chance of an internal short, too.

Also, many newer transformer-types have ground-fault interrupters ("GFI's") built-in, which will trip/fry if it is used in a Tesla coil. These should be obviously not be used in Tesla coils, or the GFI removed/bypassed.[IP removed]

Please note that you are atWikipedia, the free online encyclopedia thatanyone can edit, and this page is for asking questions related to using or contributing to Wikipedia itself.

We alsocannot andwill not provide contact information for someone. Any such information would besuppressed due to the risk it wouldlead to harassment, and in this case given Cheney's status as a pariah within her own party we have a moral obligation to not subject her to the resultant toxicity. —Jéské Courianov^_^v^{a little blue Bori}01:19, 16 August 2022 (UTC).[reply]

That is not correct,Jéské Couriano.Liz Cheney, like the articles for most serving members of Congress, includes external links to her website twice, once in the infobox and once in the external links section at the end of the article. Her website allows people to email her, although many members of Congress only respond to emails from people who state that they reside in the member's Congressional district.Cullen328 (talk)05:21, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Linking to her website isn't equivalent to directly providing contact information. Her website isn't personally-identifying information; phone/fax numbers and email addresses are. —Jéské Courianov^_^v^{a little blue Bori}06:26, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how to contact you other than on this page and I need info Please.

I need to know if this Earl Jones in the article is the same Earl Jones that is now raising investment funds for an NFT operation called NFTGurus. His office is in Arizona. He could have served his 11 year prison term or could have been paroled earlier and started a new business. I sent a $10,000 cashiers check to his personal bank in Arizona but USBank (Bank of America Wire Service) refused to send the wire because they believe it is a fraudulent business. If you have any info on this person please let me know ASAP.[phone number removed].

I chose to use this Wikipedia page, because you are Wikipedia in its entirety. Then this movie title because it states the obvious - "about time". It's time baby! Let's begin our love story.

Everything still feels surreal. Like I previously opined, these things are not mere coincidences.

PRINT THE WHOLE TRUTH

[editor's note: edit summary was "Fixed your bias and requested international assistance for Government crimes committed by Democrats."]

Telling the truth about an organization silencing free speech does not need to be neutral. Spiegel supports denying Constitutional rights to American citizens at the bb behest of the Biden administration. Neither Snapchat nor Wikipedia believe in facts anymore and are beheld by the whims of the Biden administration "Disinformation Governance Board" also known as the "Ministry of Truth." Before the "Ministry of Truth" changes this again, will some international journalist please speak up for us? We are being arrested and imprisoned for disagreeing with Biden and other Democrats. The American Government is interning citizens and we really, really need help.

Hey there, I'd love to talk soon. I've had a really stressful and anxiety-filled few months. There've been a huge amount of layoffs at my job; I still work there, but I've been forced into a new position that I did not want and do not like. It's exhausted me and left me anxious about my future at the company. I've also had major sleep issues that have gotten worse in the past year or so (longer story I can detail when we talk), but that's also left me exhausted, and I feel like I have barely enough energy to get through most days. As a result, I have difficulty tracking non-work items (as you can probably tell, lol). I also had an emergency tooth pull recently, which was about as fun as you might imagine.

Overall, I still have my health and apartment, so it's not like I have the hardest life in the world or anything; I'm still okay. But I'm less optimistic and life has become a lot more stressful/frustrating to manage.

Anyway: maybe we can shoot for Friday afternoon? This might change based on what's happening with work (I have *way* more meetings now) and my energy levels, so I'll add the disclaimer now that I may end up postponing it. But as of now, that timeframe should be clear.

Someone who set this file up has been hacking me and all my personal information and coloning me I can't even get on Facebook and I've tried to stop this person by buying new phones changing accounts but no matter what somehow this person managea to get around it and hack me every time please help stop this hack8ng and coloning and fake accounts ty[name removed][phone number removed]

Subject: Business Partnership Proposal – East Africa Market Expansion*

Hello, My name is[name removed], and I am based in Tanzania. I’m writing to propose a potential business partnership with your company.

I’m interested in opening a store here in Tanzania to sell your products. My proposal is that you supply the products (using your capital), and I will take full responsibility for marketing and selling them locally. We can then share the profits based on a percentage that we both agree on.

This partnership would allow you to expand your market into East Africa, while I manage the local operations on your behalf. I am committed to working with honesty, transparency, and dedication.

If you’re interested, I’d be happy to discuss the details further and formalize the arrangement through a simple agreement.

Looking forward to your response. Thank you.

I’m trying to find a kids animation that I remember watching on Netflix, but it no longer seems to exist anywhere.

Animation style was very simple, humanoid figures (almost stick-figure / line / clay-like)Characters were often pink and blueThe setting was a dark city / nighttime urban environmentEpisodes sometimes showed the characters driving carsMusic was synth / electronic, very atmosphericFelt retro / 80s-inspired, but I don’t think it was actually from the 80sMade for kids, not adultNot La Linea, not Angry Kid, not Abney & Teal, not Charlie’s Colorforms CityIt may have been:A short-form seriesAn international showSomething Netflix licensed briefly and later removedI can’t find any screenshots, clips, or listings online, so I believe it may be lost or undocumented media.Any help identifying this would be appreciated.Pooiey135 (talk)20:06, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
