Sculpture or monument
Does anybody know where is this monument or sculpture located in? The scene of this video is at 11:15 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXJ20H0iTIU Donmust90 (talk) 02:20, 11 September 2016 (UTC)Donmust90Donmust90 (talk) 02:20, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Are you sure? I don't see any statue around 11:15..-- Jayron 32 04:01, 11 September 2016 (UTC)


 * I see a grey concrete object. I can't tell what it is. --   Jack of Oz   [pleasantries]  05:27, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * According to IMDb, the episode was filmed at Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute in Toronto. This might assist in tracking down the sculpture. Tevildo (talk) 10:56, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The IMDb page says, "Save for the school track scenes which were filmed at Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute, all of the running sequences in this episode were shot at various locations throughout Toronto's High Park." Since in the scene the boys are running cross-country rather than on a track, a location in High Park seems likely. Deor (talk) 13:37, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * It seems very odd being as isolated as it is. Perhaps it is a remnant of something functional. Perhaps it held a large sign or an array of lights or a scoreboard. Perhaps there is a playing field beyond the fence that stands behind it. Bus stop (talk) 03:03, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

At about the time of the first Mission: Impossible movie, someone recorded a longer, more elaborate version of Lalo Schifrin's theme; it got some play on VH1 at least. Who was that? —Tamfang (talk) 07:03, 11 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Do you mean the 1996 Adam Clayton & Larry Mullen Jr. version? Here's a clip. It was used for the film too, however. It's also mentioned in the article on Theme from Mission: Impossible. ---Sluzzelin  talk  08:09, 11 September 2016 (UTC)


 * I suppose that must be it, though I ought to have remembered that it stretched the five-beat to eight! —Tamfang (talk) 08:36, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, they do just that after about 19 seconds of quintuple meter. ---Sluzzelin talk  09:43, 12 September 2016 (UTC)


 * And I'm disappointed in myself that I didn't remember that. —Tamfang (talk) 07:31, 14 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I think I read "though I ought" as "thought" or something. ---Sluzzelin talk  09:59, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

Some dual role movies as Father & Son - Hollywood?
Friends please name some hollywood movies that has dual role by same actor as father and son. Not like the same character disguising for a scene (like mrs. doubtfire) but rather played by same actor as father and son or mother and daughter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.83.51.177 (talk) 10:54, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * In Back to the Future Part II, Michael J. Fox plays Marty McFly, Marty McFly Jr (his son), and Marlene McFly (his daughter).
 * In The Nutty Professor (1996 film), Eddie Murphy plays the main character Sherman, and also plays as each one of: his father, his mother, his grandmother, and his brother. Staecker (talk) 17:53, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The question you have asked is likely to be a subset of List of actors who have played multiple roles in the same film. -- Jayron 32 00:04, 12 September 2016 (UTC)


 * In a short-lived TV series called The Second Hundred Years, Monte Markham played his own grandson. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 00:24, 12 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Not Hollywood, but Alec Guinness's roles in Kind Hearts and Coronets include a father and son: "young" Ascoyne (the first victim) and his father Lord Ascoyne d'Ascoyne (the Banker). —Tamfang (talk) 08:40, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Downloading sheet music
I want to create a library of favorite classical piano music pieces. I want it in a digital form that I can print then on sheets of paper with a printer. What would be a safe website? I found one but they send you emails with attachments which turned me off. Safety is paramount for me. Thanks, - --AboutFace 22 (talk) 14:32, 11 September 2016 (UTC)


 * This site offers free downloads of non-copyright sheet music - it might be what you are looking for. https://musopen.org/sheetmusic/ Wymspen (talk) 18:18, 11 September 2016 (UTC)


 * I'm wondering why you are concerned about email attachments, but you're ok with downloading files from a web site. Perhaps I am not understanding your concern about email?  CodeTalker (talk) 20:10, 11 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Also try IMSLP. Not everything they have is copyright-free world-wide, but much of it is.  I use it frequently.  --   Jack of Oz   [pleasantries]  22:02, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

Thank you much. I am not necessarily after free downloads but I want reputable and safe. How about www.8notes.com? --AboutFace 22 (talk) 00:24, 12 September 2016 (UTC) @CodeTalker, everyone says that email attachments are a vehicle for bringing spyware into your computer. Downloading pdf files is not. --AboutFace 22 (talk) 00:26, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry to disappoint you, but unknown PDF files can be just as dangerous as email attachments. The trick to staying safe online would seem to me to be more about making sure that your PC has an up-to-date anti-virus, and educating yourself on how to determine whether a source can be trusted, than about avoiding a particular vector. - Cucumber Mike (talk) 06:51, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Note an email attachment could simply be a PDF. While no file type can be said to be truly safe, I'd actually trust a text file from a highly questionable source much more than I would a PDF from a somewhat trustworthy source. After all there are lots of ways I can view the txt file and while there is some minor risk of OS flaws meaning many programs could be affected it's difficult to say the risk is definitely more than the PDF where the provider could have unwittingly become an agent for infection with some zero-day flaw and while there are a few fair PDF viewers it still tiny compared to the ways you could view the text file. And the complexity of the format means there are many avenues for attack and a higher chance of library or OS flaws. Of course intrisic in this is another key thing, actually knowing what format your file is and how it's going to be opened. Again this doesn't this apply to email attachments, if you're the sort of person who'd open an exe email attachment thinking it's a PDF or txt file, you could easily be the sort of person who'd open a downloaded exe thinking it's a PDF or txt file.  I know next to nothing about the sites mentioned above, but it isn't that uncommon for sites to be connected to questionable advertisers. (In fact, email actually has an advantage here in that many email providers reject exes outright although they may accept exes in archives. There are some attempts to warn about exe downloads with browsers and at the OS level, but most ISPs aren't going to stop you downloading one even if you simply use unencrypted HTTP so they could monitor it.)

Thank you all for education. My question is about www.8notes.com. Anybody knows anything about it? Thanks, - --AboutFace 22 (talk) 12:17, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * There are sites that evaluate the reputation of websites; for example: 8notes.com report @ easycounter —2606:A000:4C0C:E200:0:0:0:1 (talk) 17:20, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, It is very interesting and helpful. --AboutFace 22 (talk) 22:15, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Tune ID
As WatZatSong is out of service again... Could someone help in identifying this? The song's refrain is quite similar to "And The Beat Goes On" and generally similar to "Miami", but has female vocals. The refrain lyrics almost certainly had "people... goes on", but I don't see it among renditions of "And The Beat Goes On". The song is from the 80s-90s, certainly no later than the 90s. Had to resort to play piano tune. Brandmeistertalk  19:55, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
