editWhich 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. [1] Stargirl was Dallas, Georgia; Marietta, Georgia; Atlanta, Georgia and Douglasville, Georgia (High School Homecoming Football Game). [2] 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,[3] unlike the blue ones seen in D&V, so this location can be excluded. --Lambiam 06:50, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

NFL turnover margin
editI'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)
- @Clarityfiend: I found [4]. 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.[5] 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. --Jayron32 16:21, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Melody
editCan 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)
