Hello!
I was hoping that you could let me know if these organizations are notable enough to write about. Obama's 100K Strong Initiative is meant to promote U.S.-China cultural understanding by encouraging American students to study abroad in China. Project Pengyou and Golden Bridges are two organizations meant to promote this initiative as well as other programs promoting this cross-cultural dialogue (which, obviously, is very important).

When legally can a former two term president serve as a third term president? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.65.140.206 ( talk • contribs) 03:20, 1 July 2013

I know that Europe and North America have different plugs and different voltages. If I want to use a European appliance in North America, would it work OK with just a plug adaptor, or do I need something else as well? The appliances I would be using are a laptop computer and a mobile phone charger. Thanks, -- Viennese Waltz 07:43, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
In the article above there is a picture of the southwest freeway 1972 traffic. The lead car is a red 1963 VW.with a Texas Medical Center decal? in the lower left windshield & an Alabama Alumni? sticker in the lower right. I am 99.9% sure that is me. ARE there any more pictures that might show the tag? 98.81.97.7 ( talk) John , July 1,2013 —Preceding undated comment added 16:13, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

In the Old testament, it was acceptable for a man to have multiple wives.( King David's wives). When did that fade out or become prohibited under Jewish marriage rules?Was polygamy legal only for kings, like Solomon and Rehoboam, who had scads of wives? Was it still common in Jesus' time, or was a Jewish man then limited to one wife at a time? Is there a chapter and verse where Jesus explicitly states the one wife rule, and did he create the rule, or was he reiterating some earlier rule? Edison ( talk) 19:54, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Polygamy was banned by a rabbinic ruling, ie a stringency over and above Biblical interpretation / Talmudic exegesis. This took place in the 11th century CE (ie roughly 1000 years ago) and is ascribed to Rabbenu Gershom. The ruling applied and applies only to Ashkenazi Jews. Prior to that, polygamy was legal for all although it's hard to determine how common it was. -- Dweller ( talk) 22:18, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
How does [5] collect its data aside from news sources? Does any research institution consider Dronstream's data valid? Thanks. 105.236.20.136 ( talk) 21:11, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
