1976 Montreal Olympics medal count edit

Hi. Does anyone here have access to the August 2,1976 edition of the New York Times? User 129.98.195.65 (talk) says that the medal count in this paper disagrees with the medal count on the 1976 Summer Olympics and 1976 Summer Olympics medal count pages. Other sources agree with the prior medal counts for these pages. Thanks. -- Tcncv (talk) 05:39, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Even if it does disagree with the count, every other source on the internet confirms the current stats used. -- Scorpion0422 05:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]


GTA clone edit

My brother has this computer game he plays, he won't tell me what it is, but it looks like a rip off of Grand Theft Auto, I snapped a couple of pictures which can be found here, and here. My brother told me he got it for free. I would like to know what the game is called. I thank you for your time.

What's the song in this video? edit

Moved from Miscellaneous Desk D0762 (talk) 14:20, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was listening to this song, and want to know what it's called.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLyRP0DtwZk

It starts at the beginning of the video to about the 1 minute mark, it then starts again at 4:05 and goes to 6:35.

Anyone know what the song is called?76.194.67.13 (talk) 02:56, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My guess is someone does know. For example the person who created it... Okay to avoid being yelled at for providing a useless answer, since this montage was probably created by the person who uploaded it, perhaps try asking in the comments or message the uploader?

I don't know what the song is called, but it's from Final Fantasy VII. I'll see if I can find more info. --OnoremDil 03:47, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing on the song yet, but I just watched the whole clip that you linked to. The first time I just listened to the times you asked about. The whole 8 minutes is Music of Final Fantasy VII. Still trying to figure out which song exactly...--OnoremDil 04:17, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
OK...took a bit, but there was some bad anime on... I'm pretty sure the song is Shinra Company, or there's been some sampling in one direction or the other... --OnoremDil 05:06, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! edit

I was just wondering.. did Rascal Flatts take parts of a movie for the video "What hurts the most"? If it's true than what's the name of the movie? I just heard about it but I wasn't sure and I couldn't find anything about it on Wikipedia. Thanks a lot! P.S. Wikipedia is the best!!! ^_^ Adela —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.124.227.195 (talk) 15:19, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are you talking about this? The original song is by Cascada. СПУТНИКCCC P 17:10, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No it isn't. (But then, I thought Rascal Flatts was the original too.) Confusing Manifestation(Say hi!) 06:04, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Peanuts: Wire-hanger sculpture edit

Hello everybody!

There is a Peanuts comic strip in which Sally gets a C on her wire-hanger sculpture in art class. She then starts an inner monologue about the impossibility and the foolishness of judging any work of art.

Does anybody know if and where this comic strip can be found online? Unfortunately, I don't know when it was published but it would be great if somebody could help me by posting the link to a website or by making a scan. I need the comic strip as soon as possible for a little girl who just went through the same experience as poor Sally and needs a cheer up :) Thank you very much! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.89.77.90 (talk) 17:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
