Which high school was featured in Daphne & Velma? Which high school is featured in Stargirl?2603:7000:8100:6D5:E44B:F021:7D88:9A2B (talk) 07:56, 11 October 2021 (UTC)


 * According to the articles you linked, these (fictional) schools are Ridge Valley High School and Blue Valley High School. The section on filming says where they were actually filmed.--Shantavira|feed me 08:23, 11 October 2021 (UTC)


 * IMDb says that Daphne & Velma location filming was in Atlanta, Georgia. Stargirl was Dallas, Georgia; Marietta, Georgia; Atlanta, Georgia and Douglasville, Georgia (High School Homecoming Football Game).    Alansplodge (talk) 10:31, 11 October 2021 (UTC)


 * I didn't find anything on which high school Daphne & Velma was filmed at.2603:7000:8100:6D5:E44B:F021:7D88:9A2B (talk) 18:40, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Several sources state more specifically that filming took place in Kennesaw, Georgia, which limits the number of possible locations considerably. Kennesaw Mountain High School has tall yellow lockers, unlike the blue ones seen in D&V, so this location can be excluded. --Lambiam 06:50, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

NFL turnover margin
I'm just savoring the wacky Seahawks-Packers conference game in the 2014–15 NFL playoffs. What's the worst turnover margin a team has overcome to win a game? Clarityfiend (talk) 11:55, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I found . It says that the winning team had seven turnovers but still won.  RudolfRed (talk) 22:01, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Pittsburgh over Tampa Bay 17-12 in 1983, despite a 7-0 turnover margin, FYI. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:12, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * It's not just turnovers, it's what the other team does with them. The fact that the Bucs had the worst record in the NFL might have been a factor. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 12:08, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Actually, turnover margin is usually a pretty good statistic for determining successes and failures; that's why having such a lopsided margin and the team having more turnovers WINNING is so unusual and rare. The only team in the NFL in the Super Bowl era to finish with the #1 ranked offense and #1 ranked defense in the same season (by yardage gained) was the 2010 San Diego Chargers, a feat made all the more amazing in that they didn't make the playoffs that year.  They had a rather bad turnover ratio of -6, and many of those turnovers came late in drives or on special teams (including several blocked kicks and dropped kick returns) which resulted in a rather abysmal record for a team that had such a potent offense AND defense.  Furthermore, their turnover differential in their 7 losses was FAR worse than in their 9 wins that year, many of the games turned on a single play. On the flipside, a team with more average yardage gained stats, but with a significantly positive turnover differential will tend to win many more games.  -- Jayron 32 16:21, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Melody
Can anybody tell me where I got this melody from? I can hear it in my head, but have not the slightest idea where I could have heard it. --132.230.195.144 (talk) 17:35, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't know, but I imported it into a website that plays midi files, so you can listen to it here (click the link, then click the 'Preview/Import' button, then hit play). --Viennese Waltz 09:22, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia can do that, too. I’ve taken the liberty of adding the parameter to the OP’s post. Cheers ⌘hugarheimur 14:29, 12 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Is this (modern) Phrygian mode on A? --Lambiam 19:22, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes it is. Fgf10 (talk) 06:55, 13 October 2021 (UTC)


 * I'm reminded of the opening bars of Billie Eilish's "No Time to Die", even though its climbing tones go up two steps and then jump a third, instead of starting with a jump of a fourth followed by two steps.  --Lambiam 19:38, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
